Very cordial and very spontaneous was the wel come which the inhabitants of Portsmouth, of Lon don, and of Windsor gave to the Duke of EDIN BURGH on his return from his long and, as it has proved, dangerous voyage. A Royal Prince who has been round the world would a generation or two back have been regarded as a marvel, and good, old-fashioned GEORGE 111. would probably have been as much surprised at the idea of his great grandson performing such a feat as he would have been at being told that the colonists whom he visited would give him an enthusiastic reception. But we have become accustomed to t.avelling Princes as well as to other wonders. Royalty is no longer immovab:e. Our Princes have been nearly as migratory as those of the fairy tees, and certainly the mere fact of the Duke of EDINB URGES' s having circumnavigated the globe is not sufficient to account for the eagerness and heartiness of his reception yesterday. The reason is much nearer at hand. The public have been deeply moved by the narrow escape of her MA JESTY'S second son from a violent death. It is the first time that any member of the Royal Family, in this generation, has been in such imminent peril, and the fact that so dastardly an attempt should be male on the young Prince on an occasion when he was mixing freely with the people, and entirely unsus picious of evil, intensified the indignation every where experienced. The Prince has always been popular on his own account as well as on his mo- ther's, and it is with genuine satisfaction that we hail his return among us. Happily he seems to have entirely recovered from the effects of his wound, and there is no reason to apprehend any evil con sequences. The Galatea has had a magnificent pas sage home, leaving Sydney on the 6th of April and reaching Spithead on the 26th of June, having arrived ten days earlier than she was expected. At Portsmouth the Duke of EDINBURGH received a congratulatory address from the corporation, who had thus the satisfaction of being the first of the many public bodies who will no doubt hasten to show their loyalty and their goodwill. On leaving Portsmouth the Duke proceeded to London, where a crowd already thronged the Victoria station to see him arrive. Afterwards he went down to Windsor, where another ovation awaited him not withstanding the lateness of the hour, and where her MAJESTY no doubt rejoiced to have him home again. We hear a good deal in these days about the changes taking place in the feelings of the people, but it is quite evident that the good o ld sentiments of loyalty and affection are not yet extinct among us, and the reception given to the young Prince in either hemisphere proves that the Anglo-Saxon is still capable of genuine enthusiasm. Another night's debate in the Lords has not brought the debate to a close, and next week will see it renewed with fresh vigour. Perhaps this is as well, because no one can say that the subject has been slighted, or that noble lords of all shades have not had an opportunity of expressing their opinions. Yesterday was more tame than the first night of the discussion, but that was only to be expected, and there was no lack of speakers. Some novelty was introduced into the debate by the speech of Lord CAP.NARVON ; the remarks of the noble lord were characterised by all the ability for which he is celebrated, but we cannot say that his argu ment were very sound. He was against the measure before the House, and yet he intended to vote for it ; that was the sum and substance of his discourse. lie threw great blame on the Government for the course it had pursued, and gave them the responsibility of this confusion, instead of resting it on the Opposition. In any case the noble lord's attack upon Ministers wou'Al have been one-sided and bitter, but, considering the position he held in the Government itself, it was ill-timed and invidious. Few criticisms of'a hostile character are so unwarranted as those which come from quondam friends, and it may safely be THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 27, 1868. affirr aed that they are never devoid of prejudice. It is really too bad to make the Government re s powible for Mr. GLADSTONE'S vagaries, and it is tL to more absurd to do so when it is no secret that th .e right hon. gentleman the leader of the Opposi ti an iu the Commons took his own friends by sur prise, and annoyed many who ordinarily support 'airn by the change in his policy. The Duke of M.kRLBOROUGH retorted with some vigour on Lord CARNARVON'S attack on the Ministry, and showed that inconsistency belonged not to them, but to Mr. GLADSTONE and Earl RUSSELL. In conse quence of the imprudent course taken on the Reform Bill by the late Government the Liberal party was broken up, and became what was called " an undisciplined rabble," and a cry was found necessary to rally them and lead them again to the charge, and the Irish Church seemed to meet the difficulty. The most earnest advocate for the disestablishment of the Irish Church cannot deny that Mr. GLADSTONE has acted with great incon sistency in this matter, and comments of a satirical kind as to the unfonnity of other people's politics came with an especial bad grace from such quar ters. the noble duke quoted a passage from Mr. GLADSTONE'S work on "Church and State" as an answer to some remarks that had been made as to the impression produced on foreigners on this question of the Irish Church Establishment. The Marquis of SALISBURY made one of his powerful speeches, and directed some of his observations to the peculiar style introduced into the debate, and the " constitutional lectures" they had received as to the time they ought to take, when they were told that they must watch the majorities of the House of Commons, and endea vour to represent their views. The noble marquis disclaimed this notion with energy and decision, and declared that, as Lord DERBY said, it would be better not to be than to exist under such slavery. There is, as the noble lord said, a great difference between yielding to the expressed opinion of the country at large and being an echo of the House of Commons. The spirited vindication which he made of the rights and privileges of the House of Lords elicited loud cheers, and was well adapted to the occasion. "I am quite sure you will never consent to act except as a free, independent House of the Legislature, and that you will consider any other more trivial and more subservient cause was at once unworthy of your traditions, unworthy of your honour, and, most of all, unworthy of the nation you serve. Lord LYTTELTJN regretted that the bill had been introduced this session, but as it was he felt bound to support it. It may be mentioned that those who supported the measure did not seem for the most part very glad to meet with it in this inopportune way, and gave several hints as to its being premature and so on. The Duke of ARGYLL moved the adjournment of the debate, which lasted some time. The House of Commons sat some time yesterday, and the whole of the morning sitting was occupied by the discussion of the Metropolitan Foreign Cattle Market Bill. Lord ROBERT MONTAGU made a long speech in moving the committee on the bill, and entered into elaborate explanations of the dif ferent matters relating to the foreign cattle trade. The loss from imported diseases in home-bred cattle has been very great, and any incanvenience that might arise from re strictions on the importation would be more than made up for by the greater security felt through their observance. Another plea for the bill is that it improves the metropolitan arrangements, which at present increase the butchers' monopoly, and thus meat is rendered more expensive in town and country. Mr. M. GIBSON opposed the bill on various grounds, and made so long a speech that but little progress was effected, and the debate was adjourned until Monday. In the evening nothing of much consequence took place. Lord W. RAY advised the Government as to the necessity of a telegraphic line being constructed by the Red Sea, which would be under our control ; but Sir S. lIEATHCOTE replied that we ha 1 alroa,dy two lines of com munication, and both were being improved. The Government had given up the idea of a Red Sea line, because they do not wish to charge the Indian revenues with the cost of such an under taking, and it cannot be done otherwise. Several bills were forwarded a stage, and on many accounts the proceedings in the House yesterday were of a more beneficial kind than those of preceding Fri days, for the enl of the Parliamentary week is generally characterised by a series of squabbles, large and small, on different topics. Congress and the PRESIDENT are still at war, and they do not seem likely to come to an agree ment. Thursday's news, which we learn by the telegraph, tells us that Mr. STEVENS'S Bill, pro viding for the representation of five Southern States, on the condition that their constitutions shall never be altered so as to deprive those now entitled to vote of the suffrage, has been vetoed by the PRESIDENT, and passed over the veto in both Rouses, by 30 votes to 8 in the Senate, and by 105 to 30 in the Representatives. The reason of this sudden anxiety to admit the long-excluded South erners to representation is transparent enough. The Radicals wish to increase their numbers in the Se nate, where it is now plain that their influence is not sufficient to carry all before them. They have little hope that the independent Republicans, whose votes turned the scale on the Impeachment trial, will either change their views or be displaced by their constituents. They can only therefore hope to remodel the Senate by the addition of fresh members, and if they can succeed in getting Radical members returned by the South they will get rid of two difficulties together, because they will scarcely find it possible to exclude the Southern States much longer. It was even said that the eight Articles of Impeachment upon which the court did not vote were kept in reserve until the Radical party was strengthened in the Senate, but this would be rather extreme even for the STEVENS and BUTLER faction. However, there can be no doubt they are straining every nerve to carry as many elections as possible, and they do not shrink from the most open devices to obtain this end. Congress has lately passed a bill authorising the registrar of the district of Columbia, who is a Radical, to decide upon the legality of the local elections, and to issue election certificates. It needs, therefore, no very great foresight to discover what is likely to be the result of the elections in Columbia. In South Carolina the feeling of the people is too strong for any such contrivances. The Democrats have carried 16 districts against 15 carried by the Republicans. In Florida, however, the Radicals have obtained a majority of 32 in the State Legislature. The very fact of the Radicals gaining large ruajoritici in the Southern States proves that the new system does not fairly represent the people, since every one knows that the Southern popu lations whatever they are are not Radical. If we are to believe the correspondent of the New York Herald, Chief Justice CHASE has declared his wil- lingness to accept the Democratic nomination on the platform embodying universal suffrage, amnesty, and payment of the public debt in gold. It i 5 not easy to see how the Democrats can accept the doctrine of universal suffrage, since that is even too much for many members of the Republican party. Perhaps a moderate party may spring up between the two, and no doubt payment of the public debt in gold will be a recommendation for any candidate. The announcement that the Chief Justice has accepted a nomination not yet decided upon must, however, be received cunt gram) salis, and is very likely only a Radical ruse to injure CHASE with his own party. It is known that he has an ambition for the White House, and consequently such a story is likely to pass current. It is satisfactory so far as Canadian news is concerned to learn that the reported con centration of Fenian arms and stores on the fron tier is contradicted, but the Canadian authorities continue their precautions. The hot weather usually bodes ill for our canine friends, although medical authorities have fre quently assured us that it is a mistake to suppose that it has anything to do with hydrophobia. The disease is not only more common in the north than in the south, but in the north it more frequently occurs in January than in July. Still popular prejudice has it that dogs are dangerous in the summer, and ac cordingly precautions must be taken. We live in a timorous age, and some influential gentlemen have a great aversion to the honest tribe generally known as the friend of man. The number of pathetic cases of innocent little boys being attacked without the slightest provocation by savage monsters, and wept over by despairing mothers, which have been duly recorded during the last twelve months, is something surprising. It is a little singular that the victims are almost always of that inoffensive age, between 10 and 20, at which we all know boys are never the aggressoes, and are never in the habit of plaguing either biped or quadruped. However, the agitation got up against dogs has not been unsuccessful, and it has bad powerful auxiliaries iu successive Chancellors of the Exchequer, who put on a dog tax, which is only oppressive to the poorer members of the commu nity, so that persons who could afford to keep a dog, but cannot afford to pay a tax for him, turn him out, and he becomes the victim of the new dog law. A thousand stray dogs have been seized by the police during the last few days in London. All those unclaimed are to be destroyed on Monday. This is summary work, and not much to the credit of Londoners. Englishmen used to be reckoned fond of their dogs and horses, but the old tastes with the old virtues are, we fear, going out of fashion. The denunciation of the canine race offers a tempt ing opportunity for a little display of officious au thority, and there are men who will always find a butcher's business pleasantly exciting. We do not expect that London will be much better off without its stray dogs than with them ; and we apprehend that if the police could or would instead impound the stray boys and men who usually figure as their victims, then should the business and pleasure of life both go on much more smoothly.

Until the end of April the crops looked bad, but some rain fell, and a vast and beneficial change was induced. Since then we have had the early and excessive heats of May and June, and up to the end of last week there was some thing like a drought. Then we had thunderstorms, the rain being in some places heavy enough to lay the wheat, but otherwise very welcome. Never theless, the season has hitherto been far too dry, and in many districts the ears have been whitening, in some places without any grain in them. The harvest has already commenced in the neighbourhood of Marseilles, and there is considerable grumbling as to the result. The hay crop has been scanty, but good in quality. Colza, hops, flax, and hemp are looking well, but the beetroot sadly wants water. Fruit is abundant ; and the vineyardt are particularly flourishing. Rye has already been cut around Paris. It is noticed that the cereal crops, instead of gowing yellow, are turning white from the excessive heat. Altogether, I fear that we must not look for a harvest fully up to the average. The Hanoverian refugees affair seems likely to give trouble. Some weeks ago an address, signed by a large number of Hanoverian soldiers who have taken refuge in this country,was published, and in this the soldiers refused to accept the amnesty offered them by the King of Prussia. It was then given out that the address was at least partly fictitious, and that a large number of the names were forgeries. Thereupon the refugees have drawn up another address, signed by 731 persons, in the presence of the mayors of the different French towns in which they are residing. The memorialists say : "We, the under signed Hanoverian emigrants residing in France, and commonly called the Guelph Legion, declare by these presents that we do not intend to profit by the amnesty offered to us by his Majesty King 'William of Prussia ; that we beg his Majesty to employ for the lightening of the taxes which weigh upon our fellow countrymen the money which he spendri uselessly in the endeavour to persuade us to return to our country ; and that these sig. natures are perfectly authentic, and that we recognise the said signatures as valid and obligatory." Then follow the sig natures, with those of the various witnesses. It appears that 112 of the emigrants are residing in Amiens, 93 in Bar-sur-Aube, and the rest in Beauvais, Evreux, Orl6ans, Troyes, &c. To-day I learn the Prussian Government has demanded that vigorous measures should be taken against them, and that our Government has declined to do so. There are contradictory reports respecting the Gari baldian enlistments in Italy. The Siecle denies them; the Etendard reaffirms them, at the same time that it professes to attach small importance to them except as shewing the weakness of the Italian Government. The Libertd, which is by no means unfriendly to Italy, and which originated the statement, declares that the accounts are correct, and come from, eye-witnesses who have seen Menotti Garibaldi at Terni. Even the Correspondencia, upon which the Siecle seems to rely for its con-, tradiction, says that there will be no movement against the Papal States until war breaks out on the Rhine. Altogether, I think the balance of evidence is in favour of the existence of these enrolments, though reason and prudence are so strongly against them. The result of the two last Ministerial Councils seems to be that the decision with regard to the elections is deferred until the close of the session. This may mean that they will be deferred until next year. Nothing certain, how ever, can be said on the subject, just because no certainty exists among those who have to decide the matter. All is doubt and indecision so far. The Government has thought it worth while to make inquiries about the sale of La Lanterne, not only in Paris, but in the deparments. A report has actually been drawn up on this solemn matter, and presented formally. I believe it recommends that the sale should be allowed to continue, on the ground that the present brilliant style of writing cannot last long, and that M. Rochefort will soon damage his reputation. MM. Favre and Picard's new paper, the Electeur, has come to trouble already. The first number appeared yesterday, and this evening it is said that the proprietors are to be prosecuted for exciting to hatred and contempt. The negotiations respecting the purchase of the lifoniteur have been broken off. THE WEATHER TABLE.-THIS DAY. METEOROLOGICAL REFORM Extreme Sea Saturday, 14,41 June 27, B. T. ' W, 1 to' F. D.

This morning a slight decrease in barometrical pressure is reported from all stations : it is greatest in the north-east, but the readings are still high, and very uniform. The change of temperature has been an increase, which is greatest at Shields and Cape Clear. Winds have again backed, and are principally light to moderate from the south-westward. Rain has fallen in the north of Scotland. The weather this morning is generally fine, but the sky is overcast at several stations. The festival in honour of Martin Luther is now going on at Worms. The King and the Crown Prince of Prussia, the King of Wiirtemberg, and the Grand Dukes of Hesse-Darmstadt and Saxe-Weimar are present. The celebration commenced with a sermon in the church of the Holy Trinity, preaching being apparently the highest act of worship in the Lutheran Church. The statue was then uncovered amid salvoes of artillery, and in the presence of an immense crowd who loudly cheered. The Imperial Bevieiv mentions one or two politica't matters of interest. Mr. Coleridge does not intend to press further, during the present session, his bill for the abolition of religious tests in the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. But there is good reason to believe that he contemplates introducing, next session, a measure limited to Oxford alone, but of a far more exten sive character. The distinguishing features of this scheme will be the entire separation of reli gious discipline and secular education within the colleges, and the actual exclusion for the future of clergy. men of the Established Church from important posts in the government of the university. The Hon. Auberon Herbert, who is described as a " sort of Liberal butterfly, sipping the seats of each constituency in turn, but unable to settle on any one to the exclusion of others," is reported to have been " captured" by the Liberals of Berkshire. The Imperial hopes that a third candidate may be joined with him and Mr. Walter, in which case it is expected that the Conservatives would retain the three seats. Mr. Mill having a conscientious objection to pay th• expenses of a contested election, his friends have again to put their hands in their pockets. The first list of sub scriptions has been published, and contains the Names of many well-known politicians. The sums vary from £lOO to 2s. 6d., three young ladies being credited with the latter amount. Among those who have entered their names we find Mr. Gladstone, Baron Rothschild, Mr. C. Buxton, Mr. Seely, the Right Hon. Stephen Lushington, Mr. Fawcett, Sir C. Trevelyan, Mr. M. Chambers, and Lord A. Churchill, besides many ladies. Captain Grosvenor, the other member for the city of Westminster, will offer himself for re-election, and has undertaken to pay a moiety of the joint expenses incurred during the election. Two reports, apparently contradictory, have been cir culated of the marriage of Earl Brownlow to Lady Ade laide Talbot, the youngest daughter of the late Earl of Shrewsbury. One report gave an account which might have passed for exaggeration in a novel, that the pair were united at the deathbed of the fatherof the bride. This state ment,h OW ever, was apparently contradicted by another para. graph which detailed the proceedings at Newbattle Abbey on the 4th inst., when the real marriage was said to have taken place. The first account was sell down immediately as "romance," but both appear now to be substantially cor rect. The Marquis of Lothian writes : " The first cere mony was performed according to the wish and by the bedside of Lord Shrewsbury, who expired shortly after wards. As it was, however, known at the time that the ceremony could not be looked on as mere than &betrothal, it was considered necessary that the marriage FlumAillis idezunisea itooordiiig to Ulf us* fort ",r AQUATICS.

ARRIVAL OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH. Her Majesty's frigate Galatea, under the command of Captain his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh, arrived at Spithead on Friday morning. The vessel was sighted shortly after eleven o'clock, and the first intelli gence was received by telegram, from Hurst Castle, 'soon afterwards. The arrival was earlier than was antici pated, and the result was that many of the arrangements which were made with the view of presenting an address to his Royal Highness on behalf of the mayor and corporation of the borough of Portsmouth were hastily formed, and to some extent incomplete. So uncertain were the authorities as to the arrival of the duke, that the mayor left for London on Friday morning without the remotest idea that the occasion would arise for presenting the address in his absence. When the Galatea was sighted the ex-mayor (Mr. Alderman Emanuel) at once took upon himself the initiative, in order that the borough might be properly and efficiently represented on the duke's arrival. The object of the corporation was communicated to the port-admiral, and upon the arrival of the Galatea a message was signalled to his Royal Highness intimating that there was a desire to present an address to him upon his coming ashore. A reply was received to the effect that his Royal Highness would be pleased to receive the deputation, and the mem bers of the corporation at once received a sudden notice to assemble at the Guildhall at two o'clock. Arriving in the harbour, his Royal Highness entered his gig, and with an entire absence of ostentatious display proceeded towards the landing-place in the dockyard, prepara tory to reporting himself to the commander-in-chief. There were but comparatively few visitors—a fact which is attributable to the unexpected arrival—but these included several distinguished officers of both ser vices and some of the Rite of the neighbourhood, by whom general expressions of gratification were expressed at his Royal Highness's safe and speedy return to England. Accompanied by the Hon. Mr. Yorke and an assistant paymaster, the Duke of Edinburgh proceedre towards the admiral's house amidst continued expressions of attachment on the part of the assembled visitors, which were graciously acknowledged by his Royal High ness ; and considerable interest was occasioned whenever the duke recognised some one with whom he had beer previously acquainted. Upon such occasions his Royal Highness would stop in the most friendly manner imaginable, and express an anxious inquiry as to their health and welfare. The appearance of his Royal Highness favourably impressed all who saw him. He is robust, somewhat sunburnt, and outAardly betrays no ill-effect from the recent dastardly attempt upon his life. His Royal Highness, too, has grown since he left England, and resembles somewhat the general appearance of the Prince of Wales, although somewhat taller. The members of the Portsmouth corporation arrived at the dockyard about half-past two, and at once proceeded towards the official residence of the port-admiral, into the drawing-room of which they were introduced to await the pleasure of his Royal Highness. Upon the arrival of the members of the corporation having been commu nicated to his Royal Highness, who was then in an adjoining room, he at once proceeded to receive them, and was accompanied by the port-admiral. After a brief pause, Mr. Alderman Emanuel, as the ex-mayor of the borough, came forward, and, in a few well-chosen and appropriate remarks, addressed his Royal Highness preparatory to the presentation of the address. Mr. Alderman Hellard then proceeded to read the address, to which his Royal Highness listened with evident interest, betraying at intervals a slight feeling of emotion. The address, which was neatly illuminated, was as follows : -- " TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS ALFRED ERNEST ALBERT, DUKE OF EDINBURGH. " May it please your Royal Highness,—We, the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of the borough of Portsmouth, desire to avail ourselves of the earliest opportunity offered of your Royal Highness's return to England, to offer our heartfelt congratulations on your Royal Highness's provi dential preservation from the atrocious and criminal attempt recently made upon the life of your Royal High _ ness and at the same time to express the warm sympathy which, in common with7all loyal subjects, we feeltowards her Most Gracious Majesty in her anxious solicitude at the imminent peril in which your Royal Highness's life has been placed. We request your Royal Highness to accept our assurance of the deep interest we take in your Royal Highness's personal welfare, andof our sincere attachment to all the members of your illustrious house ; and earnestly trust that your Royal Highness may be blessed with health and happiness, and long live to be an ornament to the distinguished branch of her Majesty's service which has been adopted by your Royal Highness." His Royal Highness briefly thanked the deputation _ _ 'or the kind welcome they had given him on his return home, saying that it would afford him the greatest pleasure in conveying the address to 'Windsor, and com• municating to her Majesty the kind way in which he had been received. His Royal Highness then retired, and, proceeding to the landing, entered his gig, and, on board the Sprightly, proceeded to his ship. At five p.m. he landed again, and proceeded to Windsor by the 6.30 p.m. train. At twenty-six minutes past eight in the evening, the train bearing the Duke of Edinburgh to London arrives at the Victoria Station. His Royal Highness hae travelled express from Portsmouth to Three Bridges, and there joined the ordinary train. His reception was some thing more than enthusiastic. The Prince of Wales. attended by Colonel Keppel and Lieutenant-Colonel Knollys, had been waiting some time at the station, and almost before the train stopped at the plat form the duke alighted, and the two brother) were clasped in one another's arms. The immense crowd which, in spite of all the efforts of the police, had been gathering for an hour or more, and which had not shewn itself unmoved by this affecting scene, then pressed forward, and it required all the exer tions of the constables to prevent the people from carrying his Royal Highness to his carriage. The use of force oz the part of the police was, of course, out of the questiol on such an occasion ; but by dint of persuasion and good i humoured remonstrance, the duke was enabled to elbovi his way through the throngs, whose cheers were heard at the station long after the carriage containing the two happiest brothers in England had passed out of sight. The duke arrived at Windsor Castle at 10.45 p.m. There was an immense crowd at the Great Western' station, which cheered tremendously, and followed the duke's carriage to the palace. The Castle and church bells pealed merrily. The duke was received at the station by the mayor, Messrs. Devereux, Jones, and Cantrell, and the vicar of Windsor. CHEAP MEAT FROM AUSTRALIA. Notwithstanding the failure of previous attempts, the Australians are determined to open up a market in Europe for the sale of the beef and mutton of which they possess such an enormous abundance, and the quality of which has not become deteriorated by the presence of the rinder pest. Already the import of foreign preserved meat into England has become developed on a very large scale, about 6,000 tons of salt beef, valued at £241,500 sterling, having been imported during the last yeas into Liverpool from the United States and Canada alone. This is exclusive of the heavy imports into London and other places from the same countries. Our importation of preserved meat from South America, Russia, and other countries are also of no mean magnitude. The Australians argue that it would not be diffiult for them to become com petitors with America in the supply of preserved meat to England. The Australian beef and mutton is fully equal, if not superior to, the American ; while its greater cheap ness would render the expenses of curing, packing, freight, insurance, and agencies, pretty equal in both countries, the balance, if any, being in favour of Australia. Consequently, it is not at all surprising to find Queensland boldly offering a tempting bonus, in the shape of 10,000 acres of land, to the parties who shall first succeed in landing here 100 tons of Australian meat in fresh and good condition. Not to be behindhand, a large number of leading residents—stockowners, hankers, and merchants-- in New South Wales have formed themselves into an asso ciation for the purpose of conducting experiments on s► large scale, with the view of testing the efficacy of the freezing system lately introduced by Mr. Mort into that colony. A ship has been purchased, fitted up with tht necessary apparatus, and is now on its way here with a large cargo of Australian beef and mutton packed in ice, or reduced by chemical means to a semi-frozen con dition. Stimulated by the example of her sister colonies, Victoria has also entered the field, and with such energy, that several samples of Victoria beef and mutton have already arrived in London, having been brought by the Panama route for the express purpose of ascertaining whether the condition of the meat thus sent would be is. any way affected by its transit through the tropics. The experiment has been attended with complete success, the samples, when opened in London, being found in precisely the same condition as when packed in Victoria. SAD CAREER AND SAD END.—An inquest has been held in Church-street, Mile -end New Town, on the body of Anne Maria Bowley, aged 17 years. Deceased. although respectably connected, had become "an unfor- tunate," took to drinking, and died suddenly on Saturday, in a house of ill-fame. Dr. Swyer stated that the deceased was a remar k ably fine young woman. A post-mortem examination chewed that she had died from inflammation of the brain, accelerated by drink The iury re a _ _ ‘. yerAici to that etit, vs , •T ran i It HER MAJESTY.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. ROLLS' COURT. (Before the Master of the Rolls.) 'LOA P.E V. WILS ON--4IAMPSTEAD -HEATH. Sir R. Palmer replied this morning on the part of the plaintiff, and contended that he had made )ut a strong case for a decree, calling upon the de fendant to abstain from further building operations, tnd also for the removal) of that which had already aken place. His Honour took time to consider the judgment. POLICE IiVTELLIGEArcE.—THIS DAY. MA.B,LBOROUGH-STREET. [PERSEVERING PICKPOCKETS.—John Monteath and Thomas O'Brien, the latter an artful looking boy, were charged before Mr Newton with attempt ing to pick pockets. Police constable 82 C said that about five o'clock the previous afternoon he saw the two prisoners following an elderly gentleman down Regent-street, and after watching them some minutes, saw O'Brien 'put his hand into the gentleman's pocket, but got nothing. After going some distance O'Brien made a second attempt, but was again unsuccess ful. The prisoners then crossed Regent-street, and followed another elderly gentleman, and O'Brien partly pulled his handkerchief out of his pocket. ['hey continued to follow the gentleman, and had renewed the attempt to pull the handkerchief out, but the gentleman being informed that his hand kerchief was hanging cut of his pocket, put it back, and the prisoners then turned round to walk away• Then he took them into custody, and on searching them at the station he found a large silk handkerchief on O'Brien, with the initials E. W.' upon it, which he said a boy in Short's-gardens gave him. O'Brien (blubbering) said that the handkerchief was given to him by a boy. Shrives said that Monteath gave an address at a lodging-house full of thieves. Mr. Newton remanded the prisoners, remarking that he thought he had seen O'Brien before. WESTMINSTER. CHARGE AGAINST A DEAF AND DUIII3 WOUA S FOR INTENDING SUlClDE.—Elizabeth Eylesmere, respectable-looking woman, 48 years of age, deaf and dumb, was charged with intending to commi t suicide. George Smith, of 7, Dorset-street, Vincent-squar e, said that he was coming over Westminster -bridg e at five minutes to two this morning, when his at' tention was attracted to the defendant at about the middle of the bridge. She had neither bonnet nor shawl on, and her conduct was very strange. She placed herself in the strangest attitudes, vra' s wringicg her hands, and gesticulating in a very odd way. She looked steadily over the parapet into the water, two or three times, and witness went over and spoke to her, but could get no answer. 5118 then crossed to the other side of the bridge and re' peated her singular conduct, at the same time get ting half-way over the parapet. As witness believed her intention was to commit suicide he gave her into custody. Mr. Selfe—Have the police been able to hold ani communication with her ? A sergeant of the A division sail that he had held communication with her, and she positivell denied that she had any intention of committia suicide. She was a married woman living at \Valwortb, and said that it was not likely 811° was going to drown herself, as that would con' sign her to everlasting perdition. She wanted to go to glory, and was only looking into the water. Mr. Selfe thought there was very little connee tion between going to glory and looking into the water. The latter was not exactly a step in that direction. The police were ordered to take her to ,he r friends. THAMES. A STRONG AND POWERFUL ONlON.—Willianl Onion, aged 35 years, described as a labourer ha le ing no home, and who has been immortalised is Punch as strong and powerful, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with violently assaulting Da uiei Sullivan, a mechanic, and Edward Belson, a eo ll. stable of the R division. Last night, a few minutes past 10 o'clock , tbe i complainant, Sullivan, was passing Whitech a P e Church, when the prisoner, who was standbig against the railings, pointed towards the church' yard, and said, "My father is buried there." S . livan said, "I cannot help that," on which the P r ` .. soner seized him by the whiskers, shook and threw him heavily on the ground, and when he was on the ground kicked hi ' , about the body in a most brutal mantl et ' The indignation of the by-standers was aro used ' and they secured the prisoner awl gave him ill ° the custody of Belson, a police-constable. Onie3 made a determined resistance, and said, " 11l sl 3 ° ti you I am strong and powerful as Punch as describe me." He kicked and plunged violently, and it r e ; quired the united efforts of seven or eight me n force him to the station-house. When there P. s truck Belson, and knocked his helmet Off head. Police-sergeant Prior, 12 K, said that the prisoll was intoxicated last night, and his language A ti o demeanour were terrible. The prisoner had be convicted and sentenced to nine months' impri' °l3l went for an assault on a London Dock cons table' whom he attempted to throw into the dock and he had since been convicted for assault on police constables and others. The priso% had also been convicted for vagrancy, and ei one occasion hurled a large stone at a relievie; officer in his office, and if the stone had not Wi lc o an iron bar outside the window the officer WO u et have been seriously hurt or killed. The pr ix +a had been taken at midnight from his father 6 grave, over which he was singing, " Father ce' to home." The prisoner, in defence, said he weet o Whitechapel Churchyard to pay respect to father's remains. Mr. Paget said it was not a proper way of PO o ic respect to the memory of a father by getting &lie/ and savagely assaulting a weak old man. He kl i d p the prisoner to be a very troublesome fellow, 913 pe great ruffian. He sentenced the prisoner te v i, imprisoned for two months for the assault on S d le , van, and another for the assault on the conga 0 ' and with hard labour, snaking in all three m° l3 imprisonment.
