The second fact is within our own knowledge. We received the Church of England clergyman's cheque, and it was acknowledged as Philalethes £4.' That clergyman resides near Northampton, and his letter bore the Northampton postmark. For the clergy man who voted, we made the statement on the authority on the day of the poll of some of those who aided in re cording the votes, and we wrote afterwards to one of our committee, and obtained the rev. gentleman's name ; so that, short of actually examining the poll-book, we did our best to avoid error, and having now written to inquire how the misapprehension arose, it appears that the agent for identification at No. 7 Polling-booth was under the impression —which was also shared at the time by many persons present, but which now proves to be incorrect— that the Rev. W. Butlin had recorded his vote for Mr. Bradlaugh. He voted, it appears, for the Tories. We can only apologise to the rev. gentleman for our error." ffa, i s to 133 0 Knee. 1;v Neve is THE THAMES EMBANKMENT THOROUGHFARE.— At the weekly meeting of tho Board of Works yesterday, Sir John Thwaites, the chairman, stated that the new street from Blackfriars-bridge to the Mansion-house was clear as far as Cannon-street, and that the remaining portion to the Poultry would be cleared by the 31st of the month.

The doer on being uncarted took an exceedingly heavy line of country, away by Touchen-end and Maiden head, and after crossing and re-crossing the Thames was finally taken in the vicinity of Bray church, after about an hour and a half run. At the nxt meet, at Hayes, it is expected that Lord Cork will make his first appearance in the field as the new Master of the Royal Buckhounds. FOXES AND POLITICS.--A notice has been sent from Cold Overton-hall, near Oakham, to Mr. Tailby, the master of the hounds principally bunting in the neigh bourhood of Cold Overton, that for the future fox-hunt ing will not be permitted ou the estates of Mrs. Frewen Turner. This is, of course, carrying out the intimation contained in Mr. C. H.

A Row AT THE " ECLECTIC HALL."—James Thompson, a respectable-looking young nun, an undertaker, of Bird-street, Oxford-street, was charged before Mr. Knox with assaulting George Dailey, doorkeeper at the " Eclectic Hall," Den mark-street, Soho, a place where amateur theatri cals and other entertainments are held. The evidence of the complainant was to the effect that the defendant, in consequence of using bad language in the hall, was refused re-admission, and that ho then seized Mr. Flaxman, the proprietor, by the coat, and on the complainant interfering for the protection of his employer, he was knocked down by the defendant, and had his lips bitten by him. A witness gave similar evidence. In answer to the charge, the defendant said that the whole affair arose out of his complaining to the complainant of a man in Mr. Flaxman's employ having made use of a disgusting expression before the females in the gallery. He denied biting the complainant's lips, and said there was a fair fight between them, but that the complainant got the worst of it. the only bad language be made use of was in repeating the language uttered by Mr. Flaxman's man. The defendant called several respectable witnesses, and they all bore out his statement, and said that there was a fair fight between the parties. Mr. Knox said that if he had accepted the story as told by the complainant he should have had no hesitation in sending the defendant to prison for a month or two, but after hearing the state ment of the defendant, which was borne out by 'respectable witnesses, he had come to quite a dif ferent conclusion. He had no doubt the whole affair arose through bad language having been made use of by a man in Mr. Flaxman's employ. lie believed the witnesses for the defence that there was a fair fight, and he did not believe the com plainant's story, and should therefore discharge the defendant. WESTMINSTER. BENEFIT SOCIETIES AND THEIR HARDSHIPS.--A very respectable-looking, middle aged man besought the magistrate's advice and assistance under the following circumstances : Applicant said that he had for eleven years been a member of on Old Fellows Benefit Society, held in Flood-street, Chelsea, but was now unfortu nately deprived of one of the advantages, for which members contributed. By the rules of the society a member, upon the death of his wife, was entitled to £7 for funeral expenses, and it was with respect to this that he was an aggrieved party. His wife died on the 22d of October, in consequence of which the society refused to pay the money. Had she died on the 24th they would have paid him. Mr. Self inquired how that arose ? Applicant s.tid that a few months ago, in conse• quence of being out of work, he fell into arrears o subscriptions, but received nothing at the time 0: his application, and had never received any previ. ous benefit during the many years that he had con. tributed to the fund. Mr. Selfe—l do not very clearly understand you. You said something about had your wife lived longer the money would have been paid. Applicant—Yes—had she lived two days longer. Mr. Selfe—How is that ? If you were ineligible on the 22d for the benefit, how could your condi• tion have been improved on the 24th ? Applicant explaine I that in consequence of having fallen into arrears he was suspended for a time from the benefits, although the arrears were paid, and that suspension ceased on the 24th. Mr. Selfe—lt is rather a harsh case. Have you an arbitration clause in your rules? Applicant—Yes, we have. Mr. Selfe—Then you must appeal to arbitra tion. Go and see Mr. Tidd Pratt ; he will give you the best of counsel. THAMES. lI°RsE AND CART ROBBERY. —Morris Meyers, aged 30, of 30, Mount street, Whitechapel, cigar maker ; George Stephens, age 1 57, of 82, Church street, Initechapel, labourer; and Frederick Jeffries, aged 30, of 54, Bedford-street, Commer cial-road, porter, were brought before Mr. Paget charged with being concerned with Richard Storey, a carman, in stealing a horse and cart and 24 bags of cochineal, value £5OO, the property of Mr. W. Hartley, bonded carman, of Lower Thatnez-street. The robbery was committed on the 23d ult. The carman, Storey, who has been twice on remand at this court, is at large on his own recognizances. He was in charge of a horse and van, and 24 bags of cochineal, which he ought to have drawn from Spitalfields to Fresh Wharf, London-bridge. He went out of his directroute to a coffee-shop in German street, and while drinking tea the horse and van were driven away. On the same night the horse and van were found at Westham, in Essex. The cochineal was gone, and a reward of £25 has since been offered by Mr. Hartley for its recovery. Smart, a City detective, Dunaway and Foster, detectives of the H division, and another officer, now gave evidence implicating the prisoners in the rob bery, and Mayers in also receiving, knowing to be stolen, 31 bundles of bristles and 70 bundles of wen and boys' unmade clothing found in his possession. It was also proved that the prisoners had been frequently in company since the robbery of the cochineal. The most important testimony was given by Alfred William Hall, who acted under the directions of the police. He was formerly a police constable, and is now working at a wholesale druggist's in the City. Meyers waited upon him on the 3d in stant, and alluded to the robbery of 24 bags of cochineal. Meyers asked Hall if he would bring any of it, to which he replied that he could, and asked for a sample. Meyers brought a sample, and Hall said he would buy three bags of it. One was sent to Hall, who paid Meyers £3, and after wards £7 more. The other two bags of cochi neal had not been sent to Hall, but as the one in his possession was worth £lB, be was no loser by the transaction. Hall saw Stephens and Jeffries in the course of the transac tion in which they all took part. A small quantity of cochineal was found in Mayer's house, and Dunaway found there thirty-one bundles of bristles and seventy bundles of unmade clothing, which he seized. Mr Paget remanded the prisoners until Monday, and Smart asked for a longer remand. He and his brother officers wanted a week at least. The magistrate said that Strong, the carman, was to ap pear before Mr. Benson on Monday, and an appli cation could be made to him to remand the pri soners for a week. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

TUE ELECTION RIOTS AT DUIIIIAM.—On Thurs day Ralph Carr, a pitman living at Thinford-cottages, West Cornforth, was brought up on remand before the Durham city magistrates, charged with the wilful murder of Thomas Sewell in that city, on the election day for North Durham, the 24th of November. It will be remem bered that Sowell was killed by being knocked on the head with a stone in a riot among pitmen in the streets of Durham. Sewell's son swore to Carr as the person who knocked his father down with the stone and caused his death. Carr, no doubt, had been in the crowd, but with regard to killing Sowell the son's evidence was not very well fortified by the other witnesses examined for the prosecution. Carr, however, was sent for trial on the charge of wilful murder by the magistrates. He very strongly protested his innocence.
