In consequence of the abolition of the Stamp Duty on Newspapers the public in all large cities and towns to which parcels are forwarded by the News-Agents, The Sun, which formerly cost Fivepence-half penny for the Latest Edition, containing Parliamentary Debates of the same even ing, together with the List of Army and Navy Promotions in the London Gazette, with Official Despatches from the Seat of War, the Latest Sporting, and all other Commercial News, List of Bankrupts, dzo., ttc., can now be had for Fourpence, being a saving of nearly one-third. Hitherto the price of the paper was nomi nally Fivepence, but all Late Editions posted after six o'clock were charged a fee of One Halfpenny by the Post-office, which made the price to the Subscriber Fivepence-Halfpenny. This charge must still be made to those in remote places, unless the Postmaster-General have the magnanimity to forego such a paltry source of revenue. Sun-office, 112, Strand, London, 9th July, 1855. • r TiC ott 'llll LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1856. It is scarcely_probaLlo that we shall be accused of being thick-and-thin Ministerialists, or of sup .porting aut nefas any pr o position porting per brought in by the Government merely for the sake of .retaining the present Cabinet. The course we - haNe followed during the present week, on the motions of Sir E. E. LYTTON and Mr. liotsucK, will, we think, be sufficient to rebut such a charge if it should be made. W e may, therefore, with out much fear of misconception, emphatically pro test againSt the course adopted, in the House _of Commons last night, in reference to the guarantee 'on the contemplatcaTurkish Loan, a course which had nearlyledito tbe most disastrous consequ6pce§:, from which, the nation has had a mere hair breadth esCape. There have surely been quite a 'sufficient number of legitimate opportunities for damaging the Government' `r forting' to means that must have given serious offence to our! illustrious Ally, and materially impaired the cordial and friendly understanding between the Cabinets of Paris and of London. It would be difficult to conceive any proceeding mcre injuri ous to the best interests of the country, or better calculated to prevent the War—the just and neces sary War—on which we have entered, from being brought to a satisfactory or speedy conclusion. That the friends of Russia, the advocates of Peace at any Price, or on any conditions, should oppose the resolution was by no means surprising. They could not in any way render better service to their Northern Cabinet. But that Mr. DISRAELI should have spoken and voted with the minority, that his brilliant eloquence should have been enlisted in such a cause, has indeed astonished as much as it has grieved us, and the responsibility of the Right Hon. Gentleman is the greater when we consider that it was chiefly through the weight and influence which he de servedly enjoys that 132 members recorded their votes against the resolution, and that the nation only escaped a fearful calamity by a slender ma jority of three ! The arguments offered against the resolution, although sufficiently plausible, could not bear the test of stringent investigation. The specious fallacies put forwaid by the different speakers could be easily defeCted by any disinterested or unpreju diced person of ordinary capacity. It is true that there was a great diversity of reasoning, and that the most conflicting arguments were used. Nothing, in fact, was disregarded which by any ,possibility could catch a vote. But they were all equally unsound—all equally unworthy cf sup port. Whether they were sound arguments on inaccurate premises, or unfair deductions from correct data, they were equally illusory and unsubstantial, and unworthy of the votes of independent members uninfluenced by factious motives. When the pleas adduced were of such conflict ing characters it is difficult to dispose of one without falling into the opposite extreme. " Incidit in Scyllant, duet vat evitare Charybdim," is a by no means uncommon result of having to steer a middle course between opposing dangers, either of which would be equally fatal to the pro ceeding. The resolution was most strongly op posed because it was a subsidy, and because it was not a subsidy. On one side, weheardsinisterauguries because we were relapsing into a course which, dur ing the 20 years before the conclusion of the last general European War, cost the nation more than fifty millions sterling. On another, the conclu sions were equally unfavourable, because, in place of giving without any prospect of a return, we book ample security to prevent any possible loss. There were also objections because we shared the guarantee with our Imperial Ally, and as if we were to anticipate pettifogging excuses from France, of a similar character to those sent forward by repudiating states ; and there were prophets of evil ready to show that future complications would arise with France from the joint liability; and there were also complaints respecting the form as well as the substance, and a desire that the House of Commons should vindicate its own dig nity just at the most inconvenient time that such a point could possibly be urged, and when, if ever, the objection was totally unfounded. Let us ask the Manchester men what commercial house could hold their ground if they did not endorse the acts of their responsible agents ? Stripped of the deceptions and fallacies in which the matter was disguised it was not diffi cult to arrive at a correct conclusion. The na tion, with almost unparalleled unanimity, decided that the War is to be vigorously and energetically waged—that any and every sacrifice is to be made to prevent the aggressive policy inaugurated by PETER and CATHERINE, and professed by the pre sent as well as the late CZAR, from being successful. For that purpose we have already expended not far from one hundred millions of pounds, and, still more, many thousand valuable lives. But all will be lost if Turkey be not assisted to maintain her own ground. It would indeed be but a penny-wise-and-pound-foolish policy to let all that has already been done go for nothing, and either relinquish the contest altogether, as Messrs. GLADSTONE and COBDEN desire, or undertake to fight the whole battle ourselves without assistance from France as another section of the minority deemed expedient. We do not think that any per son of ordinary capacity, and bent on the energetic prosecution of the War, can hesitate as to the pro priety and expediency of making the necessary advance ; and the only question remaining is in what way that can best be effected. Now, the proposed mode—by guaranteeing the interest jointly with France—appears to be by far the most eligible. By not making it an absolute gift we at the same time show a greater respect for the independence of Turkey, and induce her to make more earnest efforts to husband her re sources. We see that they are amply sufficient to providethe interest, but, from some almost inexpli cable causes, a loan can only, if at all, be obtained on the most extravagant and usurious terms, which, if accepted, would cripple Turkey more than the Russian arms. The credit of the Western Powers is good, and they jointly and severally step forward as securities for the punctual pay ment of the interest, and thus without injuring themselves are enabled to render a most important benefit to their Ally. Mr. RICARDO and Mr. GLADSTONE urged that, because the late Turkish Loan is now quoted at 91, the SULTAN could raise the necessary funds without the aid of France and England ; but they mustbe well aware that the Stock was at a heavy discount until hints respecting the coming guarantee raised it to a handsome premium, and that without the guaran tee of the Western Powers no further money could be raised. Fortunately, the opposition has failed, and we have thus escaped a danger more formidable than c an be estimated, and which would be encoun tered on most inadequate and un worthy grounds. To Sir DE LACY EVANS belongs the honour of stating in plain, soldier-like style the practical jus tification of Mr. ROEBUCK'S motion. While un willing to turn Lord. PALMERSTON out, yet he truthfully observed, that not only the " short comings of the late Government, but the want of earnestness in, the present Government, went far to justify the vehemence of the Honourable Member for Sheffield." He observed that " im mense mistakes had been made, which were chiefly in consequence of the Government not having 15ee'n in earnest in, regard to the War." He added that they should "show that they were in earnest in, eaaying on, the War, and if they did he had sanguine hopes that in case the War should be continued, a total break of the vast empire of Rus sia might be effected." - We invite the attention of the nation to• the experienced counsels of the brave old soldier. Our readers well know that they enforce advice which we hitherto urged almost in vain. We have from the beginning traced every disaster ,snbstantially to the want of carnestne3s in carry ing on the War. For some reason our Govern ments have never heartily wished to treat Rus ' sia as she deserves, and as the country wished them to do, and has paid ti.eni to do. To assign what England believes to be the real cause of this might bring us within the clutohee of the -Atter ney-General, and we cannot afford that expensive honour ; but there is, there must be, a reason for this manifest want of earnestness. To that, much more than to defective administration has been due the little progress hitherto made. Earnest ness would have soon rectified the Administra tion; it would have found LINDSAYS and PETOS at the first to accomplish what it was resolute to effect. The grand , curse and bane of the War—the puerile waiting on and for Austria, could not have been endured for a moment by determined men. Polish aid would have been summoned at once ; the fall of Bomarsund would have been followed by an attack on Riga at least, and an encampment there to arouse Poland ; in a word, every military and political movement would have been impressed with the character of men determined on an im portant and great object. To what is it due hut to want of earnestness that the Sea of Azoff was not swept of supplies before ? Had this been done previous to last winter we believe the garrison of Sebastopol would have been literally starved out, and the failure of the tour de main atoned for. To what else the leaving Odessa to be the means of transport for the Danu bian troops to Inkerman?—and why is it now spared after the successes at Kertch, Arabat, and Tagan rog, spared to forward troops from Poland to Pere kop ? Why, too, are Kherson and Nicolaieff left unmolested ? We are all shy of appearing to trench on the province of the military com manders, but what we fear is that they are held back rather than urged to the most decisive mea sures. We cannot but think that the covering part of the army might by this time have found the enemy in the field, and our firm belief is that it would have found nothing which would not soon have fled before it, that Simpheropol would be reached almost without a battle, and that the Turks at Enpatoria in co-operation with our advance could cut the Russian lines of communication com pletely ; and this means nothing less than speedy starvation to the Russians. We strongly suspect that means of transport have not yet been pro vided in adequate measure for a vigorous land advance. If not they ought to have been. To us non-professional writers and readers, it will appear certain that the fleet which could land a force so easily at Kertch could land one easily anywhere north of Sebastopol, or, if need ful, on the eastern coast ; that at least it could not be difficult with such a fleet at our command to keep the enemy in perpetual uncertainty where they were to be threatened next. How is it that we see no signs of this kind of vigour ? Why are 200,0.00 soldiers kept at trench and battery work on one side only of the beleaguered for tress ? There must be some repressive influence somewhere to account for such an obvious want of bold and decisive action. We know that the fault is not with the soldiers. General EVANS observed that "he was not quite sure that Lord PALMERSTON' had dis played that energy which his friends gave him credit for ; nor was he able to discern that any great accession had been made to our military strength sinoe his accession to office. It'really seemed that this system of p ro tocolling at Vienna had paralysed the energies of the Noble Lord." True to the letter. We at the very outset denounced the wicked hilax of the Vienna Conference, and the folly of sending Ple nipotentiaries there at all, for the very reason that it would " paralyse" both energy at home and bold counsels in the Crimea. But is not the disgraceful and mischievous Vienna Conference one merely of the many symptoms that we have been sold to Germany. The despots of Germany from the big ones of Vienna and Berlin to the SAXE-COBIIRGS and the like, cannot endure the thought of " breaking up Russia." They are married to her; they are bribed by her; their offi cers and leading officials are in herpay; their breasts glitter with her barbarous orders. Degrade Russia and they are degraded with her. Break her power, and their own people will burst their bonds. The Royal family of Russia, too, is a German family. The Royal family of England is a scion of the same stock. Are, then, our Courtly Nobles fearful of wounding German feelings ? Do they shrink from the hazard of offending or grieving sympathies with which they are, behind the scenes, but too well acquainted ? Be this as it may, Lord PALMERSTON cannot doubt that he will not be permitted any longer to halt between two opinions. If he means to be great through COBURG influence, then let him serve the COnURQS, and go with Lord J. Ru to political extinc tion. But if he relies in serving the noble minded nation which he governs for his future fame, let him have but c e purpose—namely, as General EvANs said—" t effect a total break of the Russian empire." There is bat too much reason to fear that, not withstanding the removal of Lord JOE IN Russina. from the Cabinet, there still remains a strong pro- Austrian party in the Cabinet. This painful fact is but too perceptible in the altered tone of even our beat Ministers. Lord CLARENDON himself speaks in very different terms respecting that double-dealing Power from what he used some time since ; and it is obvious that, in deference to some influence either within or outside the Ca binet, the course previously contemplated towards that deceitful and treacherous ally has been com pletely changed. The despatches contained in the recently pub lished Eastern Papers, when contrasted with the speeches of the Foreign Secretary, exhibit this alteration in the strongest light. On the 3d of April the Foreign Secretary told Count COLLOREDO that the Austrian propositions, of which he was the bearer—viz., those relating to the " sys tem of counterpoise"—" were nothing short of an announcement that Austria would not ad here to the Treaty of December 2, if the Western Powers persisted in carrying the third basis into effect." Adding that "if the War went on, it would be for Austria to consider her own position, not only during its continuance, after the prepa rations she had made, the language she had held, and the engagements she had enterel into, but also at its conclusion, when peace was made between the four belligerent Powers." Again, on the 16th of April, before the remarkable piece of tergiver sation was exhibited by the English Plenipoten tiary, Lord CLARENDON wrote—" Count BuoT. must now be convinced that no attempt on the part of the Austrian Government to induce the Western Powers to relinquish their moderate proposals on the Third Point can be successful, and it is to be hoped that no more such attempts will be made." And also—" Count BuoL may object to a previous resolution respecting War, but he must be aware that England and France cannot agree to an unsafe and dishonourable peaoe, and that if Russia will agree to no other terms, the casus belli f:r Austria will arise." The Noble Lord at the same time gave" directions in the event of the ne gotiations being broken off for a not© to be ad dressed to Count BuoL, inviting the Austrian Government to concert the measures necessary for giving immediate effect to the Treaty of December 2d. On the 23d of April similar language was used--the system of counterpoise was denounced as " impraoticablo and illusory," and the treacherous connivance of Germany with the AUTOCRAT was more than hinted at ; ‘v!ien Lord CLARENDON told Count COLLOREDO that " Count Boon's despatch gave much reason to fear that Austria would propose nothing that Russia would be unwilling to accept ; while, on the other hand, THE SUN, LO.iikTDON SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 21, I 8 5_5, it seemed probable that Russia would agree to nothing that would interfere with the determi nation that the EMPEROR ALEXANDER announced of carrying out the policy of PETER and of CATHERLNE." Up to this period nothing could be more de cided or energetic than the conduct and language of the Foreign Secretary, and some time elapsed before any great change was perceptible. We know that the Austrian propositions were debated in the Cabinet from the 29th April to the 7th of May, and on the Bth of the latter month he for wardedl a despatch to the Earl of WESTMORELAND, temperately, but firmly announcing that the time had arrived for England and France to invite Austria, in fulfilment of her engagements, to con cert with them the measures for giving immediate effect to the Treaty of December 2d. On the 29th of May this demand was more earnestly pressed, stating what the engagement was, and calling to Austria to perform her part, while on the 2d of June he pointed out the sacrifices that had up to that time been made for the Austrian Alliance ; and on the 13th of June he stated to Count COLLOREDO that " the continuation of the War must, to a certain extent, change the position of Austria and her Allies towards each other, unless she took part in the War, in fulfilment of her engage ments." On the 26th June, however, all this was changed. The Noble Earl then thought that " the . proceedings of Austria did not justify cen sure," and he declared that she would continue to occupy the Principalities without let or hindrance, and practically contradicted his own assertion on the 13th of June, less than a fortnight previously. We ask, then, what was the cause of that change in the most trusted member of the Government ? Why has Lord CLARENDON so completely altered his tone ? -We hope that some explanation may be given on this point, which has occasioned con siderable anxiety to the community, and that we may know whether it has been produced by a section of the Cabinet or by the unconstitutional interferences of irresponsible parties ? Had the Papers above referred to been published previous to Lord LYNDHURST's celebrated speech, it would have furnished 'the veteran Statesman with weapons of irresistible power ; and there are abundant reasons why he may once more, before the terminadon of the session, call the attention of the House of Peers to " the ano malous position of Austria in her relation to the Allied Powers. At present all that is known is, that we have been completely bamboozled —have been humiliated, and made laughing-stocks of in the sight of Europe ; and it seems as if we were afraid to demand the satisfaction to which we are so eminently entitled ! Such imputations are peculiarly unpleasant, and it should be ascer tained whether we are to rest contented under the disgrace and injury occasioned to us by Aus trian duplicity and insincerity, or possibly, as a reward for her misconduct, to hand over Mol davia and Wallachia to the tender mercies of Austria, who seems resolved to retain permanently the Principalities, into the possession whereof she was so improvidently permitted to enter. POLITICAL ON DITS. ,~ ~ - - The appointment of Sir William Molesworth as successor to Lord John Russell in the Colonial office appears, judging from the general tenour of the conversation at the Clubs this morning, to have given unqualified satisfaction. Sir Benjamin Hall is confidently looked upon to replace the right hon. baronet at the Board of Works. The post thus vacated at the Board of Works, it is thought, will most probably, be filled up by the appointment of Sir J. V. Shelley. On the other hand the last-named gentleman has been named as likely to occupy the chairmanship of the New Me tropolitan Central Board. No opposition will, it is understood, be offered to the return of Sir W. Molesworth or either of the other gentlemen, in the event of these changes taking place. COURT CIRCULAR. OSBORNE, JULY 20. Her Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert rode and walked in the grounds yesterday. The Duchess of Kent drove out, accompanied by the Princess Helena. The Prince of Wales, Prince Alfrerl, the Princess Royal, Princess Alice, and Princess Charlotte of Bel. gium, also took their usual exercise. The Earl of Wicklow, the Right Hon. H. Lowry Corry, M.P., Mr. H. Herbert, M.P., and Sir Cusack Roney, had an interview with the First Lord of the Treasury yesterday, as a deputation on the subject of the improvement of the portal and passengercouumunica tion between London and Dublin. _ _ Despatches were sent last evening from the Colonial office to the Governors of the North American Pro vinces. The Queen has been pleased to assent to the request that Eisteddvod, which is to take place in London on Wednesday next, should be announced as wider the patronage of her Majesty, and similar permission has also been granted with regard to the use of the names of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and the Prince of _ _ The Emperor Napoleon went to the Vaudeville the other evening to witness the first representation of a comedy by M. Emile Augier, entitled Mari d'Olympe, for which the author is to receive 40,000 fr. It appears that the censors bad condemned the piece, on the ground of immorality, but that on an appeal to the Emperor the interdiction was removed. The Hanoverian Mini ter, accompanied by his daugh- ter, the Countess Helene Kielmansegge, left town on Thursday for the country seat of his Excellency, on the banks of the Eli, in Holstein. DEPARTURE OF HER MAJESTY'S MINISTERS.—This (Saturday) morning her Majesty's Ministers left the Waterloo terminus of the Loisdon and South Western railway in a special train, consisting of three first-class carriages. The Ministers were received on the platform by Mr. Yoang, the Superintendent of the terminus, In spector Bent, and other officials of the company. The train was to proceed direct to Gosport, where the dis tinguished statesmen were to start immediately for Osborne House, the Marine residence of the Queen. SOUTHAMPTON, SATURDAY, 11 A.M.—The King of the Belgians and suite landed at the Docks this morning, and have proceeded by railway to Claremont. M. Thiers is staying at Brussels. Le Nord complains of the refusal of the Minister of Public Works in Belgium to authorise the sale of copies of that journal at the stations of the State Railways. M. de Morny, President of the French Legislative Corps, is about to leave Paris for Ems. THE BRIGADE OF GUARDS.—Yesterday orders were issued for the Ist and 2d battalions of the Grenadier Guards to proceed to the camp at Aldershot on Wed nesday, the Ist of August. The 2d battalion of Cold stream Guards and the 2d battalion of Scots Fusilier Guards will leave the encampment the same day, re turning to the metropolis. - ADDITIONAL CAMP.—An additional camp is now being formed on Woolwich Common. Workmen are employed in cutting out and laying the foundation for the erection of wooden huts. The officers' huts are to be in front, and the rank and file in the rear. Each compartment will hold 24 men. Huts are to be put up to accommo date 1,008 rank and file. ASSISTANT SURGEONS IN THE NAVY.—Dr. Brady, M.D., has succeed in important and long desired con cession for the junior members of his profession in the naval service. By an order of the Board of Admiralty, which he has succeeded in getting passed. Assietant surgeons are, fo: the future, to be placed in the Ward room mess, from the time of joining their ships, instead of messing with ithe midshipmen and petty officers, as heretofore. Many a studious man, eager to cultivate his mind, and study his profes-ion with c nnparative tran qellity will long thank him for this boon. ST. PAUL AND ST. BAENABAS.—The trials of Wester• ton v. Liddell and Beal v. Liddell are fixed for the 24th and 25th, at Doctors' Commons, Dimmer, July 20. At the Tyrone assizes yesterday the gland jury ignored the hills of indictment against the person ellarged with attempting to upset the excur sion train at Trillick, and the prisoners were accordingly discharged. An alarming fire broke out on Wednesday on the pre mises of Mr. James Watson, cotton- waste dealer, Aspi nall-street, Preston, and before this flames were extin guished injury to the extent of 6,000/. was done.

A letter from St. Petersburg of the 9th, in the Hamburg News, says :—" The destruction of the telegraphs and the light houses on the coast of Finland, including those of Tolbuchin and Kras najagorka, the two nearest to the capital, has had for its first result that we scarcely hear anything of the movements of the fleet between Cronstadt and Revel. The general uneasiness and agitation are thus increased, for although it is loudly de clared that Cronstadt is impregnable, and that no fear is felt as regards it, yet the proximity of so large a hostile fleet cannot fail to inspire considerable anxiety." A letter from Vienna, in the Hamburg News, says : —" Letters from Warsaw contradict a report of the departure of a further part of the Guard for the Crimea, but it is, nevertheless, true that move ments of troops are constantly going on, and that the army of General Gortsohakoff rocei vesreinforce meats constantly.

The news from the provinces is more favourable ; brigandage is disappearing, and a great many bandits, closely pressed by the armed force, have given themselves up to the authorities." TURKISH ARMY IN ASIA. KARS, JUNE 23. MONDAY, June 18.—A movement of the Rus sian camp is observed. Our scouts come in with various and conflicting accounts. At first it is said they are retiring to Gumri, then a division is reported as on the march to Akiska. • Our doubts are soon dispelled, however, fOr the whole Russian army, calculated at 35,000, appeared in full march upon us, preceded by a large cavalry force, and followed by miles of baggage waggons and camp followers. Ere yet they came within range of our heavy ordnance they gradually turned southwards and then westwards, while we watched with intense interest each movement, and twice " slewed" round our 24-pounders towards the moving host. When the enemy had marched several hours towards the west they took up a position about three miles from us, on a slope of a mountain, and Lefore they had pitched their tents a heavy shower of rain came on, which con tinued during the whole of that night. TUESDAY, June 19.—We are all up before day light, confidently expecting an attack. The whole country is flooded with the heavy rains. The day passes off without any movement on the part of the enemy. The rain continues. WEDNESDAY, June 20.—The rain continues, and the whole country is such a mass of mud as to render any hostile movement with heavy guns simply impossible. We hear of the approach of several mountaineers from Lazistan—excellent riflemen—who are to line our batteries. Mustapha Pasha, the commander of the Batonm army, writes to the General, telling him.that he has only 3,500 troops under him, that he is menaced by a vastly superior force of Russians, and therefore is quite unable to send us reinforcements, but he is doing his best to send us irregulars. THURSDAY, J uue 21.—Six hundred Lazi moun taineers enter the town with banners of their own, singing their patriotic songs. These are excellent riflemen, and worth much more than regular troops to fight behind intrehchments. FRIDAY, June 22.—The enemy are unroofing all the villages around for the sake of the firewood. We hear that they have seat for eight siege guns, The rain and intend to make regular approaches. continues without intermission, to which we owe our present quiet.

The Commissioners took their seats this morning in the Court of Exchequer shortly after 11 o'clock. Mr. Joseph Albert Planchard, upholsterer, 41, More ton-place, Pimlico, was in the Park from four to seven o'clock. He saw a man in a cab struck violently by a policeman with his truncheon. The man's bands ap peared to be tied together, and he held them up as if to ward off the blows. The conduct of Superintendent Hughes was Nke that of a maniac. In consequence of a policeman ill-using a boy a female remonstrated with him on his cruelty, when he replied, " What the b— h— business have you here?" As witness was about to take the policeman's number he was told by a man in the crowd to mind what he was about, because persons had been apprehended for doing- it. He saw polices sergeant 31 D on a boy on the ground, who was bleed ing very much from the mouth. Witness could not say if the lad was a pickpocket. He thought he looked too respectable for that. Chief Commiseioner Wortley—Pickpockets are very respectable in appearance, according, to my experience. Witness could identify the sergeant. He saw police man' 375 A strike - a man, saying, "he would let day light into his b-- guts," and kicked him. He saw.. the same policeman Using unnecessary violence to - a, lad he had in custody. Mr. Z, Beeryaengineer, Albion Works Wilton-road, Pimlico, was .in the Park in company withl the last wit ness, and corroborated his evidence, adding that he saw the boy knocked down by the policeman. He 'violeatly thrust the. end of his truncheon against the lad's mouth, which pushed him down, and the policeman fell over -him.' The crowd cried " Shame," and the policeman ap peared to be thoronghly ashamed of his conduct. The conduct of ,the B division was exemplary. ' He saw a lady's bonnet, such as Punch describes as an " oyster shell," knocked ofl;= her bead by a policeman's truncheon, and her hair streaming ,in the wind. The people. be haved well. He saw five or six stones thrown at a cab conveying persons to the station-house. Mr. E. N. Ayrton, barrister, of Lincoln's-inn, gave evidence of the peaceable disposition of the people pre vious to the misconduct of the police. There was not one-tithe of the noise usual on a Lord Mayor's-day. He saw 387 A strike several boys of twelve and fourteen years cf age violently on the back with his truncheon as they Were running away from the police. Cross-examined by Mr. Ellis—He would not say positively that 387 A struck the boys ; he struck at them ; had he struck them he should have thought they would have fallen down. Mr. Thomas Couchrnan, landlord of the Windsor Castle, Pimlico, was in the Park from three to half-past four o'clock. Witness described the conduct of one of the mounted police, who, he believed, was Superintendent Hughes He was a pale complexion man, riding a ches nut or light bay horse. Chief Commissioner Wortley said he thought it might he taken as a fact it was Superintendent Hughes, and that he had supreme command on this day. Mr. Ellice said he was there, and bad supreme com mand, but there was a discrepancy in the witness's de scription of the man. Chief Commissioner Wortley said that he thought it had been established that Superintendent Hughes bad the chief command on this day, and anything that was done wrong in that particular quarter he would have to answer for. If any specific charge was brought against the superintendent, it would be necessary to be particular in his identity. Witness stated that when he was more than 50 yards from the railing he saw the police make an attack on the people, beating them right and left. Two men were bratally struck by the police, and bad their clothes torn off their backs. He detailed other cases of ill-usage on the part of the police generally.. He saw Superintendent Hughes strike at the people with his whip. It caused great excitement, many observing he ought to be un horsed. The conduct of the police on this occasion was reprehensible. Their conduct generally was exemplary, and he had always rendered them assistance when they required it. Ho had no animosity against the police. He bad been a licensed victualler fur 27 years and never had a complaint made against him. He saw two fems,'es on the ground in the park, but he could not say if they were knocked down by the police. Mr. John Blandford army case maker, 24, Tothill street, Westminster, was in the park from 4 till 6 o'clock. He was not in the habit of going there, but did so that afternoon from seeing the prohibitory notice of the police. He saw a superintendent on a "pale horse" make an attack on an old grey-headed aristocratical-looking gentleman. He saw 385 A strike a young man on the left arm, who was struck by two polideMen at the same time and felled to the ground. After this the man on the " pale horse" made his appearance, which was the signal for general hiss ing. Another charge was ordered by him, in which 385 A took a prominent part, the leading policeman of the body saying "he would have no more of it. 385 A lifted his truncheon to strike a stout boy—" a buffalo cut down"-4aughter)—but the boy threatening to knock him down, the policeman desisted. 385 A caught a man ley the collar, and as he held him struck him a violent blew on the lower part of the back. He joined with several in conversation on the 'Sunday Trading Bill. The meeting was anything but political. Mr. Geo. Kimpton, book-finisher,l3l, Wardour-street, Soho, - was in the Park from four o'clock till six o'clock. There was a little hissing as a carriage or horse passed by. He saw two horses' rather startled by the noise, sad the police in conseques ce rush on the people. He saw several ladies in broughams, who appeared to enjoy their ride. Mr. James Bawstead, commercial traveller, 36, Far ringdon-street, was in the park with his wife, from 4 to 5 o'clock, they were o n their way to Brompton to see a. friend. The people corning along in a body he took hold' of the railing to protect himself and wife. The Inspector on the chesnut horse ordered the police to " take that, fellow into custody with the light waistcoat and gloves,", meaning witness. The police seized him and dragged him over the railings. The inspector then came up when witness said " What a d— fool you must be to give me in charge, basing done nothing," The superintendent told the men to take him away,and charge him with resisting the police. He was dragged to Stanhope-gate, and not liking to be dragged through the streets by the police, a cab was procured, and he was taken to the station house. He was taken into custody entirely by the order cif Superintendent Hughes, who was pale with rage, and acted like a roadrean. His wife was escorted by a stranger to Brompton, and she returned to the station house with a friend, to bail him, but orders, the police told her, had been given to bail no one. One of his employers offered to bail him on Monday morn ing, but he was refused. Witness was put into an underground cell, like a pig'-stye, in which ther e were more persons than cou ld sit down. It was intensely hot during the night, and had not a policeman kindly opened the door several times, he .thought th e y wou l d have been suffocated. The policeman who attended to and they lased anything th e y cou ld them was very civi l, p a y f or . The p l a ce reminded him of what he h a d rea d of the Black Hole at Calcutta. He was bailed on Mon day evening. Chief Commissioner Wortley asked who had the power of bailing ? Mr. Ellice said it was a discretionary power under the police act, in the person in command of the station, probably an inspector. Mr. Commissioner Armstrong—Then on this occa sion any of these persons might have been bailed by the inspector on duty. Mr. Ellice said it appeared so, but he could not say. Witness said that he appeared at Marlborough-street on Tuesday, and was, discharged, no charge being pre ferred against him. Chief Commissioner Wortley asked to be furnished with the Metropolitan Police Act, and the regulations with reference to bail. Mr. Ellice said he would endeavour to procure them, Mr.' H. R. Markwick, 16 years of age, clerk to a solicitor, 65, Gray'iairn-lane, was in the park from 3 to 5 o'clock when he was taken into custody for hooting and waving his hand at a carriage with a livery servant that passed. The inspector said. he charged him with shaking his hand at a carriage. Chief Commissioner Wortley--What made you hoot ? Witness—l don't know ; others did it, and I did the same. Witness was taken to Vine-street, and placed in the cell With the previous witness. At 12 o'clock on Sunday night he was taken in a van, to Marylebone lane, and put in a cell with 17 others. That cell was rather worse than the one at Vine-street. He felt faint during the night, and the police gave 'him water occa sionally. Most of the prisoners were young men like himself. He was on , e of the number brought up on Tuesday and discharged. The sergeant on duty refused on Monday afternoon to send for his bail, because Gray's inn -lane was too far off. A policeman told him from 2s. to 2s. 61. was charge:d for procuring bail, according to di; tense. By Mr. Cammissioiner Armstrong—He understood the police were in the park to keep order, and prevent hoot ing arse hissing. By Chief Commissioner Wortley—He went to the park from curiosity, ;attracted by the police notice. By Mr. Mitchell ---Prisoaers confined without money were riot supplied with food gratuitously until after they had been in custody 48 hours. On a prisoner applying for it, a policeman replied, "You don't expect to get hit here, do you , (Laughter.) • Mr. Faulconer, firma factor, 97, Lupus-street, Pim lico, was iii the park from half past two till six o'clock. He sac , a le rson mimed Woodward with his eye cut open. The police appeared to strike where they could do the most injury. It struck him Superintendent Hughes' object was -to excite the people. There was no bad feeling en the part of the people against the police ; and when the latter, in making a rush, missed their point and got amongrit the crowd, they withdrew to let them quietly and peaceably join their comrades. He saw no bills inviting the people to a " monster concert" or " opens sir fete" in Hyde-park. The people were con versing, in groups on the conduct of Superintendent Hughes, By Cr immissioner Henderson—When the police drove the people from the rails they made no attempt to pre vent the m coming forward again.
