It is not likely that any letter or speech of the right hon. gentleman could be complete withotit his making some suggestion, or finding some flaw in the existing arrangements. In this document referred to, we find that he mentions the omission of Mr GRENFELL'S name in the requisition, and sug gests the propriety of that gentleman's claims to their support being considered. It will be remem bered that, in his speech at St. Helen's, Mr. GLAD STONE laid great stress upon the superior manage ment of finance which distinguished his party in opposition to that of the Conservatives. It has been found upon examination that the right hon. gentleman's wishes were more expressed in this than any accuracy of statement. A few facts and figures show that Lord Derby, in 1859, left the Income tax at fivepence in the pound, and that Mr. GLAD STONE raised it to tenpence, and that the only time when the tax was fivepence, before 1865, was under the opponents of Mr GLADSTONE, that gentleman never having imposed it as that sum during any year of his long financial supremacy. It is also noticeable that in 1858-59 we had a smaller expenditure than at any time when Mr. GLADSTONE was Chancellor of the Exchequer, and therefore the flourishes of rhetoric he indulges in are not exactly founded on plain s and sober fact. Sir R. J. CLINTON has made a speech at Not tingham, which is a relief to peruse, in consequence of its independence of tone and public spirit. The hon. baronet declined to pledge himself to any party, and had he been in the House of Commons he would have voted for the Reform Bill, by which means he would have supported the Tories, but he had always voted independently of any party. He believed, be added in conclusion, that a member who pledged himself to any party in the House of Commons would get out of the difficulty which would otherwise attend him of discriminating between good and bad. If some candidates for election and members of Par liament acted in the spirit of the straightforward and independent course here indicated, we should have a better illustration of the saying, " Measures, not men," and the country would reap the advantage of remedial changes being brought about without the vexatious party fights and factious manoeuvres taking place, which waste time and compro mise the dignity of Parliament so greatly. Mr. NEATE has issued his farewell address to the electors of Oxford city, and gives a brief ac count of his reasons for supporting Mr. GLAD STONE'S resolutions on the Irish Church. Many other addresses are also met with, and considerable activity prevails, so that the electors will have plenty of time and opportunity afforded them of considering the pros and cons of the matter before the momentous occasion of deciding arrives. With one thing and another several changes will take place in the representation of the new constitu encies. The good people of Paris are again on the alert, after their long respite from excitement. The EMPEROR'S fete is always more or less looked for ward to as an epoch of rare importance, and if a political crisis does not take place, the eager and expectant think that it might, and all are on the watch accordingly. Contrary to the advice of some the EMPEROR was yesterday present at a review, and the EMPRESS also appeared. No incident of note occurred in the affair, which passed off very well, and gave great satisfaction to a large crowd assembled to witness the proceedings. The cheer ng, it is said, was considerable, and altogether the day could not have passed off more successfully than it did. Additional interest was im parted to the review in consequence of the presence of Lord NAPIER of MAGDA LA. He will leave to-day for the c Imp at Chalons . liVe may regard this circumstance of a successful service as all the more significant when we remember that the EMPEROR was informed by those well quali fied to know that to hold a review in Paris just now might bring about a manifestation. The total number of troops reviewed has been roughly esti mated at sixty thousand, comprising some squadrons of the Garde Nationale, the Garde Imperiale, and THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 15, 1868. of the Line. The EMPEROR made no speech, which has disappointed some ; so that, unless he does so to-day, there will be nothing for it but to fall back on the speech he made at Troyes, and comment upon that at leisure. The Emperor NAPOLEON is in this position, that when he declares for war he is implicitly believed, but when he speaks in favour of peace he is not credited by those who in sist upon knowing his intentions. Thus the Opposi tion journals go on criticising the few remarks made at Troyes, and find out very ingeniously that more is meant than meets the eye, that some explanation should be given of its context ; and, finally, that war is very probable, though it is the fashion to cry peace. The news from Cochin-China is not satis factory, and it is confidently affirmed that the state of affairs in the colony is much more serious than the Ofoniteur would have the public believe it to be. It is said that all the victims perished in fighting to the last. A strange incident occurred at the Sorbonne, when young CAVAIGNAC refused to take the prize which was his due. This misguided course of action on the part of the young man has given rise to much comment, but nothing has been elicited that can at all account for or justify the strange proceeding. If he be deemed unfitting to receive the prize he should not have contended for it at all, and a little reflection will show him that he has made a great mistake, while he doubtless imagined that he was performing a grand action. The unfortunate attack of the Lanterne still en gages public attention, and it is much to be de plored that the Government should have acted so harshly in this respect. Far better would it have been to treat the matter with indifference, and allow it to pass as a joke, than to have considered it in a serious light and pushed matters to extremity. The imprisonment of the editor is a great mistake, and so it will be found out in the long run. The , continued system of press surveillance which has been kept up by the Imperial Govern ment may be regarded as its weak point ; its failure so far as consistency is concerned, and its condemnation in the sight of all who value the independence of States. Promises and professions have been made so often without advancing any nearer to the desired end that we are quite justified in putting no faith in any intimation of an improved policy in this direction until some per formance has taken place that will compel doubt to resolve itself into certainty. The intelligence which reackes us from Brazil is of the highest importance. As was suspected for some time past by those conversant with the state of affairs the Brazilians have grown tired of their burdens. The war has been prolonged indefinitely, notwithstanding the confident predictions of speedy success made by the Allies after the attack on Humaita, and the popular discontent has been grow ing formidable. The issue of the struggle is a mat ter of vital moment to the Paraguayans, but it is no slight thing to the aggressors, who see their re sources wasted, their country impoverished, and the lives of their soldiers thrown away in a protracted and unnecessary struggle. In the Argentine Re public, too, the dissatisfaction was increasing some time since, and though it is very difficult to ascertain the truth from the partial and incomplete accounts which are transmitted through Brazil, we may easily believe that the population are not growing more warlike with time. In Brazil itself, however, there can no longer be any doubt that the crisis has assumed a serious aspect. A Ministerial crisis took place at Rio de Janeiro last month, and a new Government, professing to be Conservative, came into power on the 13th July, the Premier and Minister of Finance being Senhor YTABORIIY. Five days later the Cham ber of Deputies was dissolved, having refused the supplies, and carried a vote of want of confidence, and the new Chamber is ordered to meet on May 3rd. Meanwhile the Paraguayans were not idle, but were, it would he seen, gaining in confidence. They had made a boat attack upon two of the Allied iron-clads at Tayi ,on the 9th ofJuly,b u t were, accord ing to the Brazilian account, defeated with loss. This item of news, we must remember, comes through the enemy, and therefore we must accept the assur ance of their defeat and loss with reserve. The admission, on the part of the Brazilians, that the Paraguayans were in a position to make an attack is inconsistent with the accounts which they have been lately forwarding to Europe. They told us that LOPEZ and his followers were reduced to the last straits ; that they were arming the women, because their forces were reduced and the men of the coun try exhausted ; that destruction was inevitable, and the triumphant success of the Allies only a question of time. The faits which they are now forced to acknowledge, the crisis in Rio, the attack at Tayi certainly do not confirm these assertions, while all we learn from Buenos Ayres is that SAR 311ENTO has been elected President of the Argentine Confederation. If the Alliance breaks up, as it probably will do, the treaty with Brazils having been already condemned by the Buenos Ayreans, the war must come to a speedy conclu sion. The Brazilians already chafe under the pressure, and they will hardly submit to bear the whole outlay and harass of the struggle. The Paraguayans have only to prolong their gallant resistance to obtain their reward, and if they suc ceed in defeating so formidable an opponent, Brazil will not soon forget the lesson. Some short time since Lord STANLEY stated, in answer to an inquiry in the House of Commons, that neither of the belligerents had accepted his proffered mediation. Brazil was probably too confident of success to do so, and be sides had no specific ground of complaint against Paraguay except the never-failing quarrel of the wolf against the lamb. Paraguay, on the other hand, might very well decline any interference, however well meant. Time fights her battles, and if she can hold out long enough to force the Brazilians to give up the struggle and retreat of their own ac cord, she will gain far more than she could win from the mediation or assistance of the best of friends. Such, we may hope, will be the result of the protracted struggle, and before the new Cham ber meets at Rio it is probable that the drama will be played out, and that peace will be restored to the exhausted but invincible little State of Paraguay. Judging from present appearances in the United S;ates the success of the Radical candidates at the forthcoming Presidential election is more than doubtful. The Radical party has lost one of its foremost men in Mr. TEADDEUS STEVENS, and though eventually the loss may be lessened by the fact that the party will be less likely to be driven to violent and unpopular extremes, yet during the crisis they will miss his indomitable energy and his influence. The change in popular feeling throughout the country has been very marked of late months. Almost every election of note in the Northern States has shown increasing favour towards the Democrats ; while the only elections at which the Radicals have obtained decisive majorities have been those of the reconstructed States, where the voters have been picked Rad:- eals ! We learn by the arrival of the Australasian, from New York, on the sth, that the Democrats have carried the State elections in Kentucky, re turning Mr. STEVENSON, as Governor, by a majority of 60,000 votes I This proves that Ken tucky, at least, is not much disposed to support the Radical platform ; while the Southern States, encouraged by the change of feeling in the North, are inclined to take some action in the matter. The leading Democrats of Virginia are taking steps to contest the validity of the Pre sidential election, if the electoral vote of Vir ginia should be rejected, as threatened. It will be the boldest of all the Radical innovations on the traditional constitution of the United States if three States are excluded from a voice in the selec tion in which every American is supposed to be represented. In Florida a new plan is pro posed, and the Legislature has passed a bill trans ferring the election of the Presidential electors from the people to themselves. This is directly opposed not only to tradition and to constitutional law, but to common sense and justice. Now that the Radi cal registration laws are in force, the voters for the present members by no means represent the people, and therefore the effect of the bill in question is to prevent the real opinions of the population from making themselves heard in the Electoral College. There can be no doubt that the excessive expendi ture which has been going on under Radical management has disgusted and alarmed the people of the North as much as their oppressive arrogance has alienated the South. The Northerners are beginning to see the truth of President JOHNSON'S assertion last year, that the maintenance of military rule in the South was a needless and oppressive burden on the Northern taxpayer. The rapidity with which the district commanders are now declaring the supremacy of civil law to be re-established in the South is suspicious. The Radicals are afraid to meet their electors with no better news than heretofore, and are eager to pro claim the success of their reconstructive policy as shown in the tranquillising of the South, which would have been tranquil two years ago if the Radicals had allowed Mr. JOHNSON to take his own CORRESPONDENCE PROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, FRIDAY, Atigust The oracle has not spoken. The grand review of to-day was simply a grand spectacle ; no speech was made, or incident of any kind occurred. The disposition of the troops was the same as I announced in my last. Splendid weather, of course, attracted an immense crowd, and there was, it must be allowed, some demonstration in favour of the Imperial personages. The Emperor left the Tuileries precisely at three o'clock, accompanied by the Prince Imperial, the Empress preceding them in an open carriage. The Emperor and his son rode down the line of troops, and then stopped at the Palais do l'lndustrie to distribute the decorations and witness the defile. That was all. M. Drouyn do Lhuys has gone to Lucerne, and has engaged a villa situated close to that occupied by Lord Stanley. The French Ambassador to the Danish Court is now in Stockholm, where he has been invited by the King of Sweden. This movement on the part of the French diplo matist is generally considered as being in support of the idea of a Scandinavian union. The Litertg has received intelligence from Spain stating that a confidential circular has just been addressed by the Minister of the Interior to the governors of the provinces. This circular recommends them to rely chiefly upon the civil guard and the levee en masse. The Government has no confidence in the regular troops. This is serious news, but it adds nothing to our information. It has long been known that the army is disaffected ; and it is now mote than ever clear that the arrest of the generals was only just in time to prevent the overthrow of the Govern ment. M. Henri Rochefort will now, I presume, go to reside at Florence, as he intended. His trial, for exciting to hatred and contempt of the Government, has ended in a sentence of twelve months' imprisonment and a fine of £4OO. The printer of the journal has been condemned in two months' imprisonment and a fine of £BO. La Lanterne is extinguished. There was some talk of printing it in Belgium, but this idea has been abandoned. Had it been carried out, there can be no doubt that it would have caused much unpleasantness between' the Govern. ments of France and Belgium, and it was doubtless this consideration that induced M. Rochefort to consent to the disappearance of his journal. Like many others of its kind, it will soon be forgotten. France is essentially the land of ephemeral writing, and it is some tribute to the popularity of La Lanterne that it should even now continue to excite so much attention. The emblem of the defunct paper is everywhere. Cigarettes have been manufactured, with the wrappers of red paper, stamped with the design of a lantern. These have been forbidden ; but the notepaper most in fashion is that with a decoration *eprezenting a lantern. Many of the foreign ambassadors at the Court of the Tuileries have returned to Paris to take their place at the dinner of M. de Moustier and the reception at the Tuileries. General Frossard has made a report to the Emperor of the Cavaignac incident at the Sorbonne. It has been remarked that the Archbishop of Paris, who has regularly assisted for several years at the distribution of prizes, was absent on that occasion. This circumstance is explained by the theory that a misunderstanding ex'sts betweea the Arch- bishop and the Minister of Public Instruction. It is stated that the result of the negotiations between Italy acid Rome on the subject of the division of the Roman debt will be the evacuation of the French troops, The Incldpendence Beige has received positive information that the Menabrea Ministry have given the French Government the fullest assurances of the integrity of the Papal dominions. The works executed by the French at Rome and Civita Vecchia are so strong that, in case of an invasion, it would be easy for the Pontifical troops to hold out until the French could lend assistance. The subscriptions for the loan has greatly pleased the Emperor. The total amount applied for is from thirty to forty times the sum required. Another million has been added to the bullion in the bank. On the same day that the drama of reality—the life of Miss Menken—was played out, "The Pirates of the Savannah" was reproduced at the Chittelet Theatre. The piece was magnificently put upon the stage, and the place of the deceased actress was taken by Mlle. Dowe, who, though less favoured by nature, acquitted herself very well. The famous steeple chase dos-a dos on a wild horse was very well performed, as was also the rest of the pantomime of this " play." As for poor Miss Menken, she is credited, after the manner of civilised life, with virtues which her most reckless flatterers would never have discovered in her whilst living. One paper does not hesitate to say that "her theological works are greatly esteemed by clergymen." The writer has forgotten to mention the name of the sect to which the clerical disciples of Menken belonged. L'ALime of Charles Dickens continues to meet with public favour at the Vaudeville.

An International Commercial Conven tion has assembled at Portland, and is attended by delegates from the States and from the British Provinces. The majority are in favour of a re newal of the Reciprocity Treaty, so that we may hope before long to have the old States restored. The strength of the mutual interests uniting two large trading communities will be the best guarantee against political disagreements, and the most con clusive manner of disposing of Fenian heroes. LATEST INTELL EGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) AMERICA. SOUTHAMPTON, Aug. 15. The North German Lloyd steamer City of Balti more, from Baltimore, has arrived here with 24 passengers for this port and Havre, inelnding the Hon. Reverdy Johnson, the United States Minister to Great Britain. On the Bth the City of Baltimore spoke the British ship Jane Pringle; on the 9th the Ameri. can brig Erie ; on the 14th the Bremen barque Gazelle ; and at 5 p.m., off Portland, she exchanged colours with a British squadron of eight ironclads steaming down Channel. TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 13. Mithad Pasha is expected to return to-day from his successful mission, to the late seat of insurrec tionary disturbances on the Bulgarian shore of the Danube. REMAP A considerable increase in atmospherical pressure has occurred since yesterday, though it is still low in the S.W. of Ireland : in Scotland readings are higher by nearly four•tenths of an inch. Pressures are now high in the north : there is a difference of more than half an inch between readings at Aberdeen and Cape Clear. Temperature has generally risen. On our Channel coast a high wind from the S.E. blew yesterday, increasing to a gale from S.S.W. at Penzance. The wind continues high from the S.W. at the entrance of the Channel, and is fresh on the west coast of France. At most of our other stations the wind is light and easterly, but fresh at Valencia. Rain has fallen on the Irish coast, and in the S. of England. The weather is generally cloudy, The state of the telegraphic communication between this country and the most important of its dependencies is absolutely intolerable. A Glasgow firm reports that out of twenty-one messages sent during the space of four months, only one reached India within two days. The transmission of the remainder occupied various periods of time, ranging from six to fifteen days. One did not reach India until twenty-six days after it had been sent, and one never reached its destination at all. The errors were a still greater grievance. There were forty-six mistakes in the twenty-one messages ; only two were transmitted correctly. In one there were fifteen errors ; and the rest averaged five mistakes each. The price of these messages averaged £5 19s. So much for the commerce of one firm in four months. Whatever may be the obstacles to a wire to India by the Red Sea, it cannot be said that it is not wanted. The Liberte is assured that during the month of August the Ministers of War of Bavaria, Wiirtemberg, Baden, and Hesse-Darmstadt respectively will meet again for the purpose of discussing a general system of defence for South Germany. It is, however, announced that what ever system may be adopted, it will he in connection with the military organisation of the North. A personal inter view at Kissengen between the sovereigns of Wiirtemberg and Bavaria has done much to remove the obstacles to such a union. The correspondent of the Independence Beige explains the changes which have just taken place between the captain generals of Madrid and Barcelona. lie says that the cause is not to be found in the risings announced from Catalonia, " which are of no great importance," but in personal quarrels between the late captain-general of Barcelona and his subordinates. One of these subordi nates has a brother in the person of the Minister of Marine, and hence the removal of the captain-general to Madrid. As, in this agreeable land, one official is set to watch another, strange complications often result. The appeal of the Cretan insurgents to the English Government is not by any means a hopeful symptom. In fact, when oppressed nationalities implore assistance from distant countries it may generally be taken as the beginning of the end. The insurrection in Crete has for months past lived only through the negligence of the Turkish authorities, and the island is in a miserable condition. The struggle is utterly hopeless, injurious to all parties, and there is not the slightest chance of any benefit, under existing eiriumstances, being derived from •-• .• its prolugatie FRANCE. PARIS, Aug. 15. M. Magne, the Minister of Finance, has ad dressed a report to the Emperor touching the suc cess of the loan just issued. The report states the number of subscribers to the loan at 781,292, and the aggregate of their subscriptions at 660 millions of rente, being equal to a capital of 15 milliards francs, or little short of 34 times the amount called for. The subscriptions received at Paris and in the Departments being not subject to reduction amount to 3,141,170 fr. rente. The moneysdeposted to insure an allotment exceed the sum of 660 million francs. The Moniteur of to-day publishes a list of per - sons who have been decorated on the occasion of the fetes Napolcon. Amongst these are M. Schneider, President of the Corps Legislatif, and M. Forcade de la Roquette, who have received the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour ; and M. Pinard, who is appointed Commander. In giving an account of the military review held yesterday, the same paper states that the crowd of spectators joined the soldiers and the National Guard in greeting the Emperor with enthusiastic cheers. The latter has authorised Marshal Canro bert to express to the troops his satisfaction at their splendid appearance and discipline. FRANCE.

THE ALLEGED ABDUCTION OF A JEWESS. In answer to the letter of Mr. Barnett Lyons, who alleged that his daughter had been abducted from his care, Mr. Thomas writes to the Merthyr Guardian : " During my absence from home some months since, a young woman—daughter of Lyons -13 years of age, sought shelter in my house late at night, alleging, among other things, that the treatment she had received at her home was of the most cruel description, and that she could not and would not stay there. My wife (perhaps some would say unwisely, but under the circumstances who could act otherwise ?) allowed her to remain; on the following day, as she still persisted in refusing to return home, she was received into the house of a lady whose address has been given. From that time to this I have not seen her or had any communication with her. I solemnly declare I have not conversed with her on any religious topic. I never saw her before she came to my house, nor have I seen her since she left." Further on, the rev. gentleman states that he had put the circum stances of the case before his congregation, but denied using the words attributed to him by Mr. Goodman. Ire concludes with throwing out a hint that the accusations made agaim% him aro set afloat by the Jews out of spite to him as a Christian. EMBEZZLEMENT BY A SECRETARY. George Dedrickson, the secretary of the Connorrce Alining Company, Wicklow, was on Friday found guilty, at the Dublin Commission, of embezzling moneys to the amount of £l4O. The alleged fraud was said to have been committed in September 1865. When first established, the company's head office was in London, but it was transferred to Ireland in 1863, when George Dedrickson was, by a minute of the directors, appointed secretary and bookkeeper, in which capacity he acted for the com pany up to a very recent period. For the disposal of the products of the mine the company appointed as " mineral brokers" Messrs. J. Lewis and Son, of Fenwick-street, Liverpool, and to them was confided in 1565 a cargo of ore. The bill of lading was in the handwriting of Mr. Dedrickson. On the 19th September Messrs. Lewis in• closed to Mr. Dedrickson half-notes on account of ores sold by them on behalf of the company. They requested an acknowledgment of the receipt of the half-notes, and said that on their receiving such acknowledgment they would transmit the remaining halves. In answer to that Messrs. Lewis, on the 21st September, received an acknowledgment. The books of the company, which were in custody of Mr. Dedrickson down to the present year, do not contain any reference to the receipt of the £l4O. The 22nd September was the date of the receipt of the £l4O, but no lodgment was made until the 10th or 12th October, when Mr. Dedrickson lodged a bank post bill for a different amount. Several witnesses were examined, and one of them admitted that Dedrickson had stated that he had lent the money to a Mr. Mackey, a director of the company, who was the accused's security; that the defalcations amounted to more than £5OO, and that he had received from Mackey I 0 U's for over £4OO, which he gave to Mr. Kelly as director of the company. It was stated that Mackey was on his Tv ay to New Zea land. Sentence was deferred. SEIZURE OF A BRITISH SHIP ON THE SPANISH COAST. The Gibraltar Chronicle of August 7 contains the follow ing :—" It will be remembered that on the 16th of June last a British schooner, the Fanny, was three times boarded by a Spanish guardacosta off Europa Point. The Fanny returned to Gibraltar, and finally left the port under the convoy of her Majesty's ship Skylark for her destination-- Oran. She reached Oran on the 21st, discharged her cargo, and again sailed on the 19th of July, bound to Carthagena, with a cargo of barley and seventeen pas sengers on board. The cargo was in part owned by some of the passengers, natives of Carthagena. Her subsequent adventures and treatment at the hands of the Spanish authorities are of such an extraordinary character that considerable indignation must be caused by their mere recital. The Fanny arrived on the Spanish coast on the 22nd. When five miles off the coast of Carthagena, at about half•past four that morning, a Spanish revenue falucho, the Amalia, came alongside, and hailing the Fanny, asked where she came from. The master replied that the schooner came from Oran, and was destined for Carthagena with passengers and a cargo of barley ; at the same time he hoisted the English ensign. It was then announced on board the revenue boat that the Fanny was a lawful prize, and orders were given to get the gun ready to fire— in view, we suppose, of meeting any possible opposition. After this, the captain of the Amalia ordered the Fanny to follow, and the schooner thus escorted was taken to the quarantine anchorage at Carthagena. On arri val at the quarantine ground four seamen from the Amalia were sent on board the Fanny,, to remain there until the expiration of the three days' quarantine imposed on all arrivals from Oran. During the performance of these three days' observation the captain of the port came alongside the Fanny, and said he suspected the vessel to be a pirate ; and at the expiration of the quarantine the English crew were taken to the Port Office to give evi dence. Although the master of the Fanny declares that the ship's papers were perfectly correct, the port authori ties professed to be dissatisfied with them, and sent the whole of the crew at once to gaol. They were kept in close confinement in the prison for thirty hours, at the end of which time they were set at liberty, the Spanish local officials informing the sailors that they had cause to be thankful to the Queen of Spain for her lenity towards them. The Fanny was, however, detained at Carthagena until the certificates of baptism of every man in the crew had been obtained from Gibraltar. Eventually the schooner was allowed to leave the port of Carthagena, and arrived at Gibraltar this morning. As might naturally have been expected, the British consul at Car thagena has protested most strongly against these outra geous proceedings. To treat in this high-banded, arbitrary manner a harmless trader, on a peaceful voyage between one foreign port and another, carrying the flag of Eng land, with papers all correct, and no shadow of suspicion against her, calls for more than reclamation. It approaches an insult to the British flag, and requires complete and ample explanation." EMBEZZLEMENT BY THE DEPUTY GOVERNOR OF A GAOL.—On the 11th July last Mr. Thomas Clendinning, who held the position of deputy governor of Omagh Gaol, absconded, taking with him, as alleged, £13105., the pro perty of the prisoners, and £l5, the property of the Board of Superintendence. On Saturday, Constable Doran; of the Royal Irish Constabulary, who is stationed in Liver pool on detective duty, from information which he received proceeded to London, where he arrested Mr. Clendenning on the charge, and took him over to Belfast. The prisoner has since been transferred to Omagh. A NATURAL CONSEQUENCE.—Three persons, an old woman and two children, have died at Newtown from English cholera, after an illness of brief duration, and from certain circumstances connected with the case it was deemed advisable to hold a coroner's inquest. The evidence dis closed the existence of a shocking state of things in the house where the deceased had lived. They found part of a family of seven who lived up a "yard" in a house consist. ing of two apartments, a bedroom and a kitchen, and the whole family slept together in one room, " sometimes with the window a bit open, but that was seldom." There are eight other houses in the yard, the sole ventilation of which consists in a narrow covered passage. There is one privy and one pump for the accommodation of the inhabi tants of the houses, which are all described as being over crowded in a similar manner, and the cesspool is situated at the distance of about a yard from the pump. The coroner has communicated with the Home Office upon the subject, and the inquest stands adjourned, pending the Secretary's reply. It was stated by the medical witness that there are other places in the locality equally bad. QUALIFICATIONS FOR A SINGING CLERK. —The following advertisement (says the Freeman), purporting to be extracted from the cover of a magazine published in London, has been recommended to the attention of enterprising Yankees by the editor of the American Baptist paper, the Watchman and Reflector:—" Surrey Tabernacle.— A clerk wanted, to conduct the singing at the Surrey Tabernacle, Borough-road. He must be one who knows vitally the truth for himself, and be able to give a scriptural reason of the hope that is in him. One who lives as well as professes the Gospel. He must also be a decided, a strict Baptist. Also, he must have a competent knowledge of music, and a voice suited for giving the hymns out as well as singing, suited to the largeness of the place and congregation, Also, he must be one who can both give the hymns out in their significance as one who knows in his own soul what he is saying ; also, he must be sufficiently ac- quainted with the English language to pronounce his words with propriety ; one who knows whereabouts accent and emphasis ought to rest. It is not desired that the hymn, in giving out, should be growled out, nor squeaked out, nor bawled out, nor whispered out, nor hurried out, nor dandled out, but given out as dictated by common sense and a feeling heart, in a voice distinct, earnest, and impressive. Also, it is desirable that ho should be one who in singing rronounces his words ; not glide with le, in, la, through the hymn, and nobody know what he is singing ; nor is it desirable that he should bawl ready to split his throat, but sing easily and melodiously. Of course, perfection cannot be expected, but the above will servo for a hint as to the kind of article that is wanted,—Direct to Deacons of Surrey TattorystO j GAN a 49 a5a411g471.90, .B1!4 *t 7l 4- „ - eiltubt HER MAJESTY.

POLICE I NTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. SIIOCKING CONDITION OF A lionsE.--Williani Wakelin, a jobbing carman, was charged at the instance of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals with cruelty to a horse hi working it while in a totally unfit state. The chief constable of the Society watched the case. The prisoner was seen in Princes-street driving a horse attached to a cart laden with bricks, and the poor animal was in such an exhausted state that it fell, being totally unable to draw the load. Mr. Cherry, the Government veterinary surgeon, said that he had examined the horse, and found it excessively poor in condition and very old, and it had diseased legs, was broken-winded, and had some sores on its back and shoulders. The bore° had been severely flogged on the withers and thighs, and was altogether in a very miserable condition• The prisoner told him that he had given 30s. aD another horse for it. The horse was not fit for any kind of work, and it was great cruelty to use it. The prisoner asked the magistrate to let him take the horse home, and use it in some light kind of work. Mr. Knox said the horse was hardly capable of drawing its body along. The prisoner was liable to three months' imprisonment. The prisoner said he hoped not. Mr. Knox asked him whether he would consent to have the horse destroyed ? The prisoner said he supposed he must. _ _ Mr. Knox, after remarking that it was a great defect in the act in not allowing a magistrate to order the horse in such cases to be destroyed, said that on condition that the horse was destroyed be should fine the prisener 10s., and order him to pleY 10s. 6d. costs. THAMES. AN AWKWARD DILEMMA.—An Irishwoman, named Ellen Brian, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged, with stealing a pair of boots from the per son of a mechanic, named Taylor. The prosecutor was drinking heavily last night and became intoxi cated. He laid down on the ground and fell asleep, and while he was in that state his boots were taken from his feet. They were found on the prisoner, who was offering them for sale. The boots were valued at Bs. The prisoner, in answer to questions put to her, said—" I will be tried by a jury at the sessions ; am not guilty. I found the boots." Mr. Paget—You are committed for trial. The prosecutor asked for his boots. Mr. Paget—They will be given up to you at the trial. The Prosecutor—l am barefooted. I have no other boots, and I can't go to my workshop and walk about without anything on my feet. Mr. Paget asked Inspector Gee if be had a pair of old policeman's boots to lend to the man. Inspector Gee—No, sir, I have not indeed. TO policemen sell them when they cannot wear them any longer. Mr. Paget— This comes of the prosecutor getting drunk and lying down in the street. Let him have his boots. Stamp them, so that they can be identi fied at the Sessions. SAVAGE ASSAULT.—An excavator, named Win. Smith, was charged before Mr. Paget with assault' ing a police-constable named Barnsley, of the division, and a man named Macdonald. The constable was quietly pacing his beat, when the prisoner, who was intoxicated, came up to Dim and said, "Here is a --- policeman," and titre/ him violently on the ground. He got up, and was again thrown in an instant. A third time was this repeated, and the constable was shaken and much hurt by each fall. A man, named Macdonald re monstrated with the prisoner on his brutality, and assisted the constable. The prisoner tore Mac" donall's coat, threw him, and kicked him. A ma t : in charge of a fire-escape then came to the aid 13 the officer, and he was also violently assaulted, an d in a struggle which ensued lost his cap and a hand' kerchief. The prisoner, who is a remarkably tall man, said —" All that I have to say is that I was drunk." Mr. Paget—You are a very powerful man, an d you attacked the policeman without the slightes t provocation. Another man was also assaulted, and a third, who is not here, was ill-used by you. V II are sentenced to one month's hard labour for 08 assault on the policeman, and one month's imprison' meat and bard labour for the assault on Mae donald. The sentences are to be consecutive. 11IARKE7S-7HIS DAY. HAY. Supplies moderate.
