As has often proved the case before in America, tne Radical triumph in the elections has diminished on closer inspection. Telegrams, dated yesterday, at noon, floor Philadelphia, report that the Re publicans had carried the elections in Ohio, but that their majority, which had been variously stated, was reduced to 16,000, and that the Indiana elec tions had been carried by a majority of 1,000 only, leaving a Democratic gain of 13,000. The Demo crats claim, moreover, to have gained no less than seven members of Congress by the week's selections, so that their position has manifestly improved. The Washington news of yesterday goes a step fur ther, for the Democrats in the capital actually claim to have carried the Indiana elections. We shall not know the truth of the matter for a day or two when the complete returns shall have been cillected, and due examination made, but it is evident that the contest must have been a very close one. The New York Herald states that there is a movement among some of the Radicals to secure the withdrawal of Mr. SEYMOUR and Gene ral BLAIR, and to nominate Chief Justice CHASE. This is hardly likely to be so on many grounds. It would be a confession of weakness, and highly impolitic to change the whole base of operations in the middle of the campaign. The election is now so close at hand that a fresh candi date would have little chance of success, while Chief Justice CHASE is on many points altogether opposed to the Democrats. The rumour may have been set afloat for the purpose of damaging the De mocratic cause, or it may owe its origin to the caprices or extravagances of a few individual mem bers of the party. Congress assembled yesterday, though without a sufficient quorum, and it was therefore adjourned until the 10th 10th proximo. Little will be done until the Presidential struggle is decided, and on this the public interest is now centred.. We learn by the arrival of the Cuba, from New York on the 6th, that General M'CLELLAN has written a letter expressing his wiaies for the suc cess of the Democrats, but declaring his intention to take no part in the active business of the elec- tion. In New York the Democrats are very busy. A procession of 40,000 strong has been making a demonstration through the streets ; but such exhi bitions are so common in America that they cannot be accepted as indicative of the strength of a party. The troubles between white and black continue in parts of .the Southern States, and it is necessary to accept the accounts with caution since the partisans on either side greatly exaggerate them. The Radi cals are always famous for improving on reports, and we find that a riot at Apelousas, Louisiana, which on the Gth of October is described as result ing in the death of one white man and two negroes, on the 7th grew into the massacre of over 100 negroes and the sacking of two Republic news paper offices. There is no scruple about enlarging upon the news a hundredfold, and the Ame ricans are well aware of this, so that the invention often fails of its purpose. The Indians are giving trouble in Arkansas and Texas, so that there are not lacking elements of disturbance in the Re public. Among the many new and important acts to be introduced into Parliament next year a Merchant Shipping Bill is not one of the least momentous. The value of our merchant shipping is so immense, the traffic so incessant, and the lives which are daily risked in its navigation so numerous, that its interests affect a very large proportion of the popu lation. Yet, notwithstanding the importance of the subject, the legislation respecting it is in a very unsatisfactory state. So wide a margin is allowed to the shipowner and the master that hundreds of lives are annually thrown away, and thousancs of pounds' worth of property wasted, from the wretched condition in which ships are sent to sea. The large merchant vessels which take long voyages are generally safe enough. Accidents, of course, occur from the inevitable action of wind and wave; but it is not often that their loss or disaster is distinctly traceable to defects in the ship or in the seamanship. With the vessels carrying on our coast trade, however, the matter is alto gether different, and the number of small vessels of the collier class yearly lost on our eastern coasts forms a very large proportion of the total losses of ships of all kin is wrecked in British waters. Often very old, badly constructed, kept together only by tar and pitch, ill found, insufficiently manned, with cables and anchors that will not bear a strain, they are sent out with perfect indifference by the owners, wh) indemnify themselves for their loss at the expense of the in surance offices. Year after year the Wreck Regi.lter tells us the same sto y, with little apparent result. A letter addressed to a contemporary by a gentle man familiar with the whole subject, himself a shipowner and a director of two marine insurance companies in Newcastle-on-Tyne, gives ample details of the manna. in which these ships are sent to sea—to be lost, perhaps, within a day or two after leaving harbour. He cites a caso of a vessel laden with coal for Shanghai, which had two feet of water in her hold before she left the Mersey, awl was abandoned before she was three days out. Besides the loss of property the lives of 15 men were risked with this ship, and the case is by no means an isolated one, tho,igh, as we ROYAL LYCEUM THEATRE. Tars EVENING, TILE MARRIED RAKE.

A Flanders paper, in writing of a shipwreck which occurred at Ostend, where an English collier striking a rock went to pieces in two hours, observes that it is incomprehensible how the English Government, so careful of the lives of its subjects ordinarily, " should allow certain ship owners, from motives of avarice, to send vessels to sea almost with the certainty of being lost." Mr. Hall, the gentleman we have referred to declares that the underwriters are powerless to remedy the evil. They keep on raising the premiums, but the burden falls upon the substantial and careful shipowner, not on the speculator, who'buys a ship at the rate of four or five shillings a ton, sends her to sea, and gets his insurance when she goes to pieces. Ile therefore proposes a regular system of Government inspec tion, the appointment of a legal functionary to assist the local Marine Boards in official inquiries into cases of loss and misconduct in ship captains, and an extension of examination necessary to a master before he can take command of a foreign going or passenger ship to the home-carrying trade. These practical methods would no doubt do much to abate the evil, and we cannot but hope that they will be incorporated in the new Shipping Act. There are other points which de mand notice, more especially the system of over loading, so fatal in the case of the London, and more stringent rules with regard to the frequent collisions now occurring. Here is room for our professing reformers to show their zeal in regard to a matter involving the safety of thousands of brave lives and millions worth of property. Mr. GLADSTONE has again favoured the electors of Liverpool with one of his orations, and he and Mr. GRENFELL attended a meeting last night at the Old Swan, and here the Opposition Leader in dulged himself in a few of his sly hits at his oppo nents. First of all he declared that the resolution of approval of his policy was quite justified by the " political history" of late years. Their opponents, under many titles, had always been against the establishment of freedom. It is convenient to have a short memory occasionally, and therefore Mr. GLADSTONE overlooks the fact that the Corn Laws were repealed by a Conservative Premier, and that the second Reform Bill was carried while the obstructive party were in office. But the right hon. gentleman, in his virtuous indignation, intends to judge men by past professions, and as Protection flourished when people entertained different views, so he holds them responsible for the enunciation of those views. If this doctrine were applied. to himself it would not be quite so plea sant, and some passages from his famous work on "Church and State" would contrast ill with the processes of opinion his genius has developed. Of course it is not easy to find something different each time to enliven his discourse with, but the versatility and resources of the speaker in question are most abundant, and the first speech bristled with the sharp edges of his strictures on extravagrnce in the estimates, the second set forth the reforms that the Reform Bill needed, and the sins of omission and commission in respect to it. Yesterday the novice would have said there is nothing left to make the subject of satire, but, not to be baffled, Mr. GLADSTONE exorcises the spirit of Protection and it might have seemed at one time as if a gene ration had rolled back, and the old palmy days of the League were in existence. What has Protec tion to do with the issues now before the country, and why should Mr. GLADSTONE take up the time of the electors in discussing it? The reason is plain to the initiatel : he desires to d image his opponents, and takes every opportuaity, usual or unusual, to gai❑ his ends. It is, however, very absurd, to say the least of it, for the pablic to be entertained with these reminiscences of bygone days ; and really one is tempted to retaliate, and say that if the Protec tionist party would have remained in to this day had they not obtained office, or if Mr. GLADSTONE had not been disturbe 1 from his comfortable loca tion in Downing-street, we should never have heard of the immediate necessity that existed for the dis establishment of the Irish Church. Even now, however, Mr. GLADSTONE can discern the traces of bygone events, and he announces it as the result of his experience that it was annoying to notice how the former Protectionists seized upon any oppor tunity that presented itself for tho removal of re strictions. We must protest against the mode adopted by Mr. GLADSTONE in discussing questions in which he feels bitterly disappointed. It was most unsuitable for him to say that the " cause of the Reform Bill passing was the pulling down of the park railings by the mob." Such language mnight be consistent for Mr. BEALES and Mr. POTTER, but not for the man who has sat in the Councils of his Sovereign and led the House of ,Commons. Besides that, who has been, and even professes to be, the guide and exponent of the views of a great historical party in the State, one which upholds freedom of opinion, but not an unlicensed abuse of it, and which has not yet adopted Transatlantic cus toms with such avidity that it can put mob law be , fore the just judgment of the educated and en lightened members of the community. It is all of a piece with the right honourable gentleman's new style of saying that Irish grievances . must be redressed because Fenianism flourished E on the soil, and it is about as unwise and impolitic as it is illogical and unreasonable. Mr. GLADSTONE may succeed in many things, but he will always fail as the leader of a party for two reasons : he has no patience with his friends, and he can show no magnanimity to his opponents. Daunted in his desperate effort to seize the reins of Government this spring, he has launched upon the electioneering venture in a spirit of bitterness and tone of indignant reproach that augurs ill for the result when others follow in his wake. We do not wish in these days of modern improvements to find our legislators and the con stituencies of the Empire reviving the worst errors of the past, and making the counties and cities where the claims of rival candidates are to be set tled the scenes of squabbles and unworthy contests. The opinions of those whom it is worth while to in fluence can never be favourably impressed by the display of rancorous hostility, and it is therefore a matter of much regret that so refined a scholar, and so accomplished a gentle man as Mr. GLADSTONE undoubtedly is, should lower himself to the level of the demagogue and political agitator. The classic grace which once marked his style is now exchanged for the whher ing sneer and the angry taunt, while principles are pronaulgatel and opinions broached in his discourse that he once would never have cc udesceuded to 'Men to. Ills best friends anal warmest admirers must lament this change, und if he would hear reason they should impress upon, him that the prize he seeks may not be worth the price he is bidding for it. The English public have no sympathy with clap-trap, and would rather tolerate a tardiness of judgment and a h !,sitation to intro duce necessary changes than they would willingly see their foremost statesmen, their men of mark and high repute making a desperate clutch at ot,fice, and, like sailors throwing overboard cargoes in a storm, abandoning first one cherished conviction and then another, putting the end before the means, until all landmarks and safeguards are shatterod and crumble away. Each speech of Mr. GLADSTONE'S seems more bitter than the last, and when we re member that these are the shadows only of coming events, we may well be dismayed at the prospect of the substance.

He gave an address at Hornsey, but on inquiry it was found that no person of the name of Charles Pein was known there; but a young man answering his description had lived there un der the name of Charles Reeves. When taken the prisoner had no hat on. Police-constable Parker, 87 F, said he was on duty in the Strand, and hoard cries of " Stop thief" in Southampton -street. He went there and then to Burleigh-street, where he found the prisoner in custody. Helsdon said she had left her umbrella in Southampton-street. He went back to look for it, and found it and a hat lying on the footway toge ther. He took them to the station-house where the prisoner claimed it. Witness received the bag from Ward. There was no purse in it, nor could he find any along the route the prisoner had followed in his flight. Inspector Harnost said that information had been received of a similar attack in Peckham the same evening, by a person answering the prisoner's de scription. Mr. Flower said in that case it would be best to remand the prisoner, though the evidence was quite sufficient to commit him for trial on the pre sent charge. HUNGARY. PESTS, Oct. 16.

CAUTION TO CAB PROPRIETORS.-Mr. William Biddle, of 2, Gray-street, Manchester-square, cab proprietor, appeared to answer the complaint of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, of causing a horse to be worked while in an unfit state. • From the evidence it appeared that on the 14th a gentlemen named Westly Roberts, residing at Marina, St. Leonards, hired the defendant's cab at the Paddington Hotel to take him to Charing-cross, and on the way he noticed the cab to lurch a good deal, and when in Regent-street the driver of the cab whipped the horse and it fell. Mr; Roberts took the number of the cab, and communicated with the Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Animals. Young, an officer of the Society, went to the defendant and told him there was a complaint against him, and on examining the horse found a large wound on its knees of long standing. Mr. Arthur Cherry, the Government veterinary surgeon, on examining the horse found it be worn out, in very poor condition, with broken knees blackened over, and having cuts on the inside of the fetlock joints from weakness. The defendant said he was not aware of the con dition of the horse, or he would not have sent it out. Mr. Cherry said the defendant was a beginner at the trade, and had other horses which were all but worthless. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the defendant 10s., and ordered him to pay 12, , . 6d. costs.

KINGSCLERE.—For the Cambridgeshire I profer Blue Gown to the Palmer, and he is sure to run a good horse, but I think he has too much weight on him to quite win. Criterion Stakes—Pero Gomez, King Cophetua, and Va gabond aro engaged. Tho first-named I like the best. Vagabond is out of training. I think Siderolite will be entered for the Nursery, and with a fine weight will run well ; in fact, I think this stable will be worth following once more at head-quarters. NEWMARKET.—On Wednesday Siderolite, The Palmer, Blue Gown, Pero Gotnez, and King Cophetua had a good gallop across the Flat. Nyanza led Restitution, Dragon led Mortemer, and Silenus led Lady Coventry up the Cam bridge Course. Warrington galloped over the same ground by himself. All these went very well. Goodwood was out early on the race ground side, but what Snowdrop did I cannot tell. Bless galloped Knight of the Garter, Vauban, Prof. Anderson, Leases,Sir Oliver, and Indignation, while Target steered the two year olds, Brother to Chattanooga, Robespierre, Ventnor, Humdrum, Crown Princess, The Priest, Orphan, Acaster, and Martyrdom ; Pearlfeather also went well. Matthew Dawson's and Jennings's did good work. Gilbert's lot, including Reindeer, Ryshworth, Middleton Maid, Rajah, Ravioli, and Blueskiu. On the Bury Hill side flayhoe cantered Restitution and Nyanza, and afterwards the two went a steady gallop of about two miles, pulling up fresh and well. The Hernaione and the Waterwitch colts galloped about a mile steadily. John Dawson's lot did the same as mentioned the day before. Friday—Cliff's Snowdrop went a good gallop. Nyanza led Restitution, and Silenus, Clairon, and Lady Coven try galloped the Cambridgeshire Course. Warrington went by himself. Joseph Dawson's Friday, Grimston, Knight Errant, and Artesian went a good gallop. Knight of the Garter and Professor Anderson went well. Hermit galloped the Cambridgeshire Course with Daley up. Target led a lot of two year olds. 1 have bad at times a partial fondness for Lady Coventry, but still th2ra is something at the present I don't like in her appearance, and as I believe both Mortemer and Restitution to have male great improvement, in selecting one to stand on it must be one of the Frenchmen, Mortemer or Nelusko. STOCKBRIDGE. —At Newmarket, we have Birdseekor, Duchess, and Lady Raglan engaged in the Cambridge shire. The two latter are both well, and the last-named will be the best. I have not the slig'atest doubt but she will run bettor than she did last time, as, apart from other causes, I am told she was suffering from sexual symptoms as well, which I have no doubt made a deal of difference to her. RICHMOND.—Wo have the following horses in good work :—Adamant, Declaration, Bessie Dixon, the Carnival colt, Caprera, The Gleaner, Virtue, Hind, National Guard colt, Last Rose of Summer, Annie Stewart, Lade; Sweet Annie, Reltub, Ortie, Evelida, Louisa, Buttercup, Raunds, Man of Rose, Underhand colt, and Clarionette. MIDDLEHAM.—The following horses have been doing good work :—The Dean, Savernake, The Corporal, Man drake, Mercury, Donaldbain, Tabouret, Itch colt, Calis toga, Hymen, Damsel filly, The Czar, Comus, Fleets, Slap Bang, Pomfret, Little Duke, Conrade, Inon f Palisade, John Osborne, Josephine, Beochwood, Etoile Filante, Frolic some, Pride of Erin, Nuaga, Footlight, Minster Bell, and Marking Ink. Wo shall not have many horses going to Newmarket, but The Corporal, The Dean, Mercury, Min ster Bell, and Ftoilo Filante are all well. The Corporal is the best of our lot for the Cambridgeshire, and if he only runs kindly he will take a lot of doing. STANTON.—We shall not have many horses running at Newmarket. Abyssinia is engaged in the Criterion Stakes, but will be an absentee. Cambridgeshire. —We have See- Saw, The Returned, Marlyon, Ruric, and Jeannie Deans engaged. I think the first-named will be over weighted, and the market will be the best guide for the other three, my own preference being for Jeannie Deans, if they:ask her. I don't see any of our horses engaged in anything else at head-quarters. FINDON.—Wo shall have several horses at Newmarket, but most of them will be for races yet t close. On Mon day, in Criterion Stakes, we have Tasman ; but I think, from the work he has done during the last two days, he will not be wanted again this year. Cambridgeshire.— Our horses engaged are Lady Elizabeth, Romping Girl, filly by Newmiuster out of Irish Queen, Wolsey, Rodo monte, and Hermitage. Since I last wrote they have all been in full work, cantering daily a mile twice, and wind ing up with a gallop of a mile and a half. Wolsey has won a most extraordinary trial, and I consider him certain to win the Cambridgeshire. I would strongly advise your readers to be on at once, for I can assure them it is like coining money to back him. CHILTON. - On Wednesday Acte3a did one steady canter of about a mile, after which she was stripped and sent a rattling gallop of two miles, going in splendid form. Thursday morning, after cantering, she did good mile and a-half work, going first-class. This (Friday) morning she was stripped, and had a rattling gallop of a mile and a half, the pace being good from beginning to end, and she pulled up as sound as a bell. I never saw the old mare look in such blooming condition as she is now, and a finer animal will not be stripped on Newmarket Heath next Tuesday. MALTON.-At Newmarket in the Criterion and Glasgow States we have Thunder, who is well, and has done a lot of good work, but, with all that, he would do with a little more time. Cambridgeshire.—Taraban is well and fit to run, and should ho take into his head to try, he is almost certain to get a place. Sussex Stakes—Lyttleton never looked better in his life than ho did up to the time of his leaving for Northaller ton. HEDSESPORD.—I have nothing to mention worthy of notice. All our best horses are nearly away, Cliff having about half a score at Newmarket. For the Cambridgeshire wo have Vex and Alicia here now ; the latter is not in form. Vex has been doing steady work up the Coppy Gallop, but has too much weight on. ILSLEY. —Dalby will bo our best for tho Cambridgeshire. He is well and doing steady work, and if that was his true form in the Cesarewitch he cannot have much chance of winning, as he seemed to run very slow. Blaster, in the S weepstakes of 50 soya each, is a moderate horse ; and the same may be said of The Maze, in the Sussex Stakes. FYFIELD.--At Newmarket we have, in the Criterion, Bribery filly, Portsmouth, and Heather Bell. The Bribery filly is very fit and well. Portsmouth, I think, wants more time, but Heather Bell is as fresh as paint. I like her the best of this lot, and I think she will win. She has been doing some rattling good mile gallops, led by TremLle, going freely and well. Cambridgeshire.—Safety bas no chance. Boanerges I have not seen do anything in the shape of a gallop since my last report. He made an at tempt to gallop on Thursday, but either would not or could not go, and was beaten by Juanita, Sister to Fran chise, and La Belle Helene. This (Friday) morning he was out, but I did not see him do any work. I went close to him, and he looks fit enough, but if he wins and returns to Fyfield I will eat him. LEwts.—Ethus and Messman have boon doing some good work, and though I think the first-named has much improved, he is not quite class enough to win the Criterion Stakes at Newmarket. For the Cambridgeshire Stakes we have Choral, but as she has not bi.n home since the first meeting, I can say nothing about her. Ersom.—We have Planet, Master Robert, Redcap, and Cecil in the Cambridgeshire. The throe first-mentioned ate all in Mr. Hughes's stable, and if either of them has au outside chance it is Master Robert, but I have no fancy for him. Cecil made his appearance on the Downs on Wed nesday morning early, and did a slendid gallop of two miles, accompanied by Grand Duke ; and although ho wore a hood and blinkers, as he did when undergoing his Cesarewitch preparation (in fact ever since he came front Canterbury), he bounded along in grand style, and pulled up fresh and well. Ou Thursday he was out by six o'clock, and did some gentle walks of a mile, and after wards walked in the paddock. He was brc•ught out again by Nightingall senior, accompanied by Warlike, about five o'clock, but from the thick fog that was spread over the downs I cuuld not see what he did. He was on Six-mile Hill about half an hour, and then went in. This day (Friday), after cantering, he hai a nice pipe opener of a mile and a half. HORSES STRUCK OUT OF THEIR ENGAGE- MENTS.

There is nothing new from Spain except rumours. The revolution has now become a very dull affair, and is likely so to continue until the Cortes meets and the freedom of, Spain is confirmed by the choice of a permanent Govern• meat. Amongst the reports is one to the effect that We English vessels had been refused admission to the port of Barcelona by the local Junta, which does not subscribe to the free-trade principles] decreed by t he Revolutionary Junta at Madrid. Such insubordinatio n shews the necessity of thoroughly submitting these local governments to the central authority. Senor Mon, the Spanish Ambassador here, finds himseit In a curious position. He had previously sent hiS resignation to Queen Isabella's Minister of State, but before it reached Madrid the Minister of State had found it advisable to disappear. Senor Mon then readdressed his resignation to Senor Madoz, of the Revolutionary Junta, but this gentleman had already resigned himself. In addition, the resignation of Senor Mon was not abso . lute, in case his services might become necessary to his country. He is at present there neither as Ambassador nor dernissionaire. No successor has been appointed, but Senor Mon has taken all his property from the Emboss'''. La France has an article on the disarmament reports, which is believed by many to be inspired by the Govern' ment itself. It admits that it is time to put an end to the uncertainty which has so long prevailed, and that never has there been greater necessity to declare distinctly the policy of the Empire before the nation and before Europe* A. clearly definite policy, liberal in home, pacific in foreign matters, would take away all public credence from the attacks of the hostile party which now so industriously circulates the rumours of war. Who is the hostile party ? The Government is undeniably assaulted in certain quar ters with an excess of acrimony ; but the distrust prevails everywhere. It is generally agreed, however, that the danger of war is diminishing, and it is not too much to say that there is a general expectation of the Emperor's return being followed by decisive measures. The New Free Press publishes an interesting letter written by the Emperor Napoleon 111. to an old schoolfellow who had become a surgeon and was in dis' tressed circumstances. He was unable to wait on the Emperor when his Majesty was at Saltsburg in 1867, but he obtained an audience of Prince Napoleon at Pestb, and was recommended to write to his former schoolfellow• Here is his reply " Saint Cloud, Sept. 10. " I have learned with much sympathy your painful situation, and I hasten to comply with your request. Never have I forgotten the time I passed in Germany , where my mother received a noble hospitality, and I myself the first advantages of instruction, and found in you a kind companion and a friend. Exile offers painful but useful trials ; it teaches us better to know foreign nations, and to judge without prejudice their good quad' ties and their worth. And if, at a later period, the n atal Boil is revisited, the reminiscence is always preserved of the companions among whom one's youth has been passed, and the remembrance remains firmly, not withstanding time and politics. Your letter affords me an opportunity of expressing these sentiments , which are mine. Receive this as a proof of the close Byrn' oathy with which I am yours,—NAroLEoN." Count von Goltz is about to quit Paris. His health will no longer permit him to remain at his post. Baron \Verther, now Minister at Vienna, has been mentioned as his successor, but there is also talk of Herr Brassier, the Prussian Ambassador at Constantinople. A singular accident has occurred at Orleans. A man who appeared in deplorable circumstances crossed the railway line in spite of the noise of an approaching engine. He was knocked down, and one hand nearly severed from the arm. He went on, however, as if nothing had happened. The servants of the company were u nable to find him. FRANCE.

DARING OUTRAGE AND ROBBERY IN SOUTHAMP TON-STREET, STRAND. —A neatly-dressed and deci dedly good-looking young man, about 20 years of age, who said his name was Charles Pain, was charged with brutally assaulting and robbing a lady in Southampton-street, and robbing her of a black bag, containing her purse and money, and several other articles. wife ereoef a respectable trades t, Lincolns-inn-fields, ma A n lrs in lij r l r s e d a o t n, Q t a h e e e stated that a little after seven o'clock last evening (Friday she was passing along Southampton-street, Strand, when a man, whom s he believed to be the prisoner, came up to her, seized her bag, and wrenched it from her. As she did not readilly give it up but struggled to retain it, he struck her to the ground. The blow was so severe her a violent blow in the face, and felled that it knocked out two of her teeth and loosened another. A life-preserver being shown to the wit ness, she declared that she was quite unable to say whether she was struck with that or a similar wea pon. The blow was so sudden and she was so confused by the ,shock, that she could not tell what she was struck with. The man ran away. As soon as she recovered sufficiently she followed and found him in custody of a police-sergeant in Burleigh-street. Tho prisoner was about the same size and general appearance as the man who struck her. In the bag were a purse, 9f., and some arti cles she had purchased a few minutes previously. William Ward, a very intelligent lad of about 16 years of age, who said he was employed at a newspaper, said he was at the corner of Bur leigh-street and Tavistock-street, and saw the prisoner, with the bag in his hand, running as fast as he coul I. He came from the dii.ection of South ampton-street. Some one was crying " stop thief." Iu Burleigh-street the prisoner threw away the bag. Witness followed him till he was stopped by a police-sergeant, and then went back am). picked up the bag, which he delivered to a constable. Sergeant Burke, 3 F R, stated that se eiug the prisoner running, and hearing cries of "stop thief," he stopped the prisoner, and held him till last witness came up and said he had knocked a lady down and robbed her of a bag. The prisoner said, "It was not me." Witness took him to ,the station and searched him, and found in one of his: pockets an imitation gold chain, and between the skirts of his coat and the lining a " life-preserver" with a large and heavy leaden knob, and a stvong thick handle of whalebone and gutta percha, strongly bound with string. While be was at the THE SPANISH REVOLUTION. The Liberte announces that the Provisional Governmen t Is now negotiating with the representatives of the foreign Powers at Madrid with a view to its recognition by those Powers. Several Conferences have been held with each of the foreign Ministers accredited to the late Govern• ment. These, it will be remembered, still reside in the The French Liberal journals continue to express their disappointment at the apparent failure of the Republican party in Spain. The Liberte, in the person of M. Emile de Girardin, again insists upon a Republic as the most available form of government, and as the least likely to incur the danger of renewed tyranny. An article of unusual merit appears in the Debats. The writer, M. John Lemoinne, thinks the future of Spain, at least the ionnlc diate future, affords no reason for alarm. The delay which has been made the cause of so much apprehension an the part of the Liberte was really unavoidable. Th e first thing was to get rid of the monarchy, and this hae been accomplished with startling unanimity. It left not fragment behind. In France successive revolutions hav e left anciens partis ; but the fallen monarchy of Spain :annot claim a follower. The first movement was not 1 0 the capital, but the provinces ; the whole country was 01 blaze before the conflagration reached Madrid. The chief langer is now to be apprehended from divided councils. Ar• Lemoinne urges the Government to rapid movements. The first thing to be done is to overturn the old laws an d establish new ones on the true principles of liberty. The question of persons will soon be settled. The municipal loan for the relief of the distress amongst the lower orders goes on but slowly. It has reached some 3 700,000 reals. Ten millions was the figure fixed upon. The rumours as to the destiny of the country are yet of the most adverse and perplexing character. One corre spondent, in spite of the letter to the Gaulois, says it 1 e believed in all parts of Madrid th a t P r i m w ill g ive hie support to the Iberian scheme. The same writer adds that this explains the conduct of Senor Olozaga in holding aloof from the new Government. He has, indeed, consented to return to Spain, but he is not for the present going t ° Madrid. Ho will spend a few days at his estate at Vice' Olozaga is an unflinching monarchist, and therefore does not approve of the Iberian tendencies of Prim, to $ O l nothing of Serrano, In spite of this authority, the balance of evidence is on the side of the presumption that Genes's,' Prim favours a monarchical form of government. The price of provisions is declining at Madrid. Marshal Novaliches is rapidly recovering; that is, so fat as he can recover from a permanent mutilation. The number of slaves in the islands of Porto Rico and Cuba is nearly half a million, or one-fourth the entire Population. The Presse publishes a letter, written, not by Prim hin t self, but by his chief staff-officer, and therefore c arrying , , with it his authority. The Pres s e i s ra th er roug hl y h a ndle' in this epistle for publishing an article containing dive r% statements not founded upon fact. Amongst these is the statement that Prussian money materially aided the recce tionary leaders. The Spectator thinks that Ferdinand of Coburg, husband of the late Queen of Portugal, and father of the presenS king, will succeed to the throne of Spain. THE ESCAPE OF O'3I?IEN. The " Captain " O'Brien who escaped from gaol 1 3 ofallow, may or may not have been a Fenian, but of bi ll agility there can be no doubt. Th e t rue story 191. s flight does his " dash " and readiness of resource •redit. As elicited at the petty sessions, it is that 'hen Harding, the keeper, went round ,the cells to o° hat all was right, Reidy heard him coming, and steppe d behind his cell-door. When Harding opened the cell, he went in, and Reidy, making a rush, got out, and locked the cell on the keeper, the key having been left in the lock on the outside of the door. Reidy then made for the front door, but was foiled in his attempt to escape that way by the keeper's wife, who, seeing the prisoner come out of his cells ran and locked the front door. Reidy then took a ladder whiell was in the yard, placed it against the wall, and attempted t ° get away by this means. Mrs. Harding, seeing what he W at, ran and pulled the ladder away from him before he WO half way up. When the ladder went from Reidy b• clung to the wall like a cat, and, breaking the glass in the dwelling-house of the keeper, managed to get on the top of the wall, which is over twenty feet high, and jumped down into a lane. An alarm was given imple' diately, and the police at once commenced searching O r the missing man, but up to this have not found any clue t° his whereabouts.
