TI - TE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 29, 1868. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-TIIIS DAY. MARLBORO UGII-STREET. ROBBERY AT THE ST. GEORGE'S BATHS.—William Brodrick and William Toomey, two plasterers, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the follow ing robbery at the St. George's Baths, Dacres-street, Berkeley-square. Mr. Harper, from the offic3 of Mr. Froggatt, ap peared for the defence. Andrew Shaw, a bookbinder, living at 6, Dyer's buildings, Holborn, said that on Saturday afternoon he went with a companion, named May, to the St. George's Baths in Dacres-street, and on leaving the bath he saw Toomey holding the curtain of the place where they had left their clothes, and Brodrick rifling all the pockets of the clothes, and he after wards missed a half-crown. He spoke to the pri soners, and they offers I to I,:t him search their clothes ; but after he had searche 1 BrArick's trou sers Brodrick said he should search no more, and that if they were searched at all it should be done at the station. lie then spoke to the superinten dent of the baths, and the prisoners were given into custody. Mr. Woods, an attenda'it at the baths, said that the prisoners came in on Saturday, and as a pre caution from being robbed handed him their money to take care of, and aft.lr being in the water a few minutes the prosecutor came down and complained of being robbed. Brodrick said he bad no money about him, and that all he had ha I been given to him (witness). Brodrick denied having the half crown, and on a constable taking off his boots he found a half-crown in one of them, upon which Brodrick said he did not know it was there or how it came there. In answer to Mr. Harper, the witness said that a notice was posted up which cautioned persons that robberies had been committed, and . it was the custom of persons to give up their property to be taken care of by the ofli.ials of the baths, but it was optional. Police-constable Isaacs, C division, proved find ing a half-crown in one of Brodrick's boots, and upon doing so, Brodrick said that there were two boys at the baths at the time, and that they must have put the half-crown in his boot. Mr. Sleigh, having cross-examined the witness, and addressed the magistrate on behalf of the pri soners with a good deal of ingenuity, Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the prisoners whether they wished to go to the Sessions? Mr. Inkstley, the superintendent of the baths, said the commissioners of the baths felt it their duty to press the charge for the protection of the public, there having been numerous robberies at the baths. . The prisoners wished the case dealt with by the magistrate, and Mr. Tyrwhitt thereupon committed Brodrick for a month, and discharged Toomey, as the evidence was but slight against Lim. WESTMINSTER. BRUTAL Arne KS.—Robert Bryant, better known as " Sugar," was charged with attempting to rob Ann Taylor, and committing a violent assault upon her. _ _ Prosecutrix said—On Saturday night I wont to the Duke of York, Queen's-road, Chelsea, for a per son. I opened the taproom-door, where the prisoner and some companions were seated. Ho got up and seized me by the jacket, and then he struck me in the face and head as you see. He did it with a drinking glass, and then ran away. Mr. Selfe—Do you know anything of him ? Prosecutrix—Nothing. I have certainly seen him before, but never spoke to him. Mr. Selfe—Did you give him any provocation ? Prosecutrix—Not in the least, but I don't want to hurt him, because he had been drinking. A friend of his has threatened to kill me this morning if I appeared against him. Mr. Selfe—What is known of this man? Police—lie has been again and again convicted of felony, and other offences. He is only just out. Mr. Selfe—What do you say to this, de fendant ? Defendant—l was drunk. Mr. Selfe—You are committed for two months with hard labour. THAMES. How PEOPLE ARE KILLED IN' THE PUBLIC STREETS.—A little, grave-looking elderly man, who gave the name of William Goldsmith, last night, and Jas. Gunn, this morning, were brought before Mr. Benson charged with furious driving and in juring a mare, the property of the police. George Martin, a mounted police-constable, No. 174 A. reserve, was on duty last night to look after the people coining home from the country, who are in the practice of reckless and. furious driving along the Bow, Mile-end, and Whitechapel roads on Sun day evenings, when he saw the prisoner turn out of the branch road into the Mile-end-road with a pony and cart, which he was driving at a reckless and furious pace. He was talking to another mounted constable at the time, and the pri soner, as he was turning the corner, whipped his horse, and the wheel and step of the cart came in contact with the police mare, and cut her side and belly in several places. He was struck in the leg by the shaft of the cart and nearly unhorsed. The prisoner, who Was intoxicated, was thrown out of the cart. The prisoner, in defence, said the pony he was driving was an old one, and would not go faster than six miles an hour. (Laughter.) Martin—lt was going at the rate of 16 miles an hour at least. He nearly run over a man in the Canal-road, and I have a witness here to prove it. The Prisoner—l had a drop certainly, and whipped the poney just before I came up with the mounted constable. Mr. Benson— And nearly run down the con stable. If you had killed him or any other man, you would have been committed for trial for man slaughter. How came you to mount the name of Galdsmith last night ? The prisoner—l am a baker. I sell bread by commission for a man named Goldsmith. I have a bread-cart, and am known as Oliver Goldsmith. (Laughter.) No, I mean Mr. William Goldsmith. Isaac Mitchell, a currier, of the Hackney-road, said the prisoner was proceeding at the rate of six miles an hour. He did not think the prisoner was drunk. Mr. Benson—The prisoner, who is James Gunn this morning, admits he was the worse for liquor. lie is liable for the damage done to the mare. I fine him 10s for furious driving. The Galatea, screw frigate, 26 guns, 800-horse power, Captain his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh, K.G., K.T., will be officially inspected at Spithead to-morrow, according to existing arrangements, by Admiral Sir Thomas Sabine Pasley, Port Admiral and Naval Commander-in- Chief at Portsmouth. The Duke, if the inspection is made as arranged, will arrive on board his frigate, from Windsor, and resume active command, for the time being, early on Tuesday morning. A course of experiments on gunpowder and other explosive mixtures is about to commence at Wool wich under the direction of the Ordnance Select Committee. _ . ----- Experiments against the Plymouth Breakwater Fort at Shoeburyness will probably be resumed on Thursday next, when the caseraates will be sub jected to a vertical fire from a 13-inch mortar. THE CROPS IN THE EAST.—The past week has again been characterised by groat drought in the eastern counties, although copious rains fell on Sunday and Mon day. Upon the whole, the wheats look hell, although they would bo bonofitted by more rain. Barleys aro spoken of in gloomy terms. In the fens there will be light crops of spring corn, kohlrabi, and marigold ; but, except on the sharpst and shortest gravels, the wheat crops looks strung and hopeful. The out crop is short and light; beans, too, are short, but appear to have podded fairly. Peas look pretty well ; the whole vast fen district would, however, be greatly benefited by rain. Thu hay harvest is extremely light, but it has been secured in fine condi tion. _ _ IiTHE LATE LORD BROUGHAM.—This evening Mr. Roebuck, on the question of going into committee of supply, will ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in consideratidn of the great public services of Lord Brougham, the Government intend to propose that a monument should be erected to his memory in Westmin ter Abbey. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE The Ist and 2d battalions of the Grenadier Guards under the command of Colonel Bruce, were inspected by the Field-Marshal Commanding-in- Chief in Clyde-park on Saturday. The Ist bat talion, commanded by Lieut.-Col. Burnaby, and the 2d battalion, commanded by Col. King, were formed into line in review order opposite Grosvenor-gate to receive the Commander-in-Chief at 19 a.m. his Royal highness, accompanied by his Staff, arrived on the ground at the hour mentioned, and was received with a Royal salute. He then rode down the line and inspected the men, after which he took up his positing at the saluting post, and the battalions marched past, first in slow time in open columns of companies, and afterwards in quick time in grand _ . . divisions. They were then formed into line and put through the manual, platoon, and bayonet exer cises, after which the usual evolutions of a firing field day were performed. The review lasted about an hour and a half, and at its conclusion his noya; Highness expressed himself entiray satisfied with the appearance and steadiness of the troops under arms. The battalions were then marched to their respective barracks and dismissed. The ground was kept by a detachment of the Royal horse Guards and a party of the 2d battalion Coldstream Guards. Ou Friday the Aldershot division was again ac ively exercised in field manoeuvres. The troops orined up on Cove-common at half-past 10 o'clock, the cavalry in contiguous columns, and two batteries of Horge Artillery in rear of the Reservoir, facing south. The infantry brigades formed under cover of Danger-hill, the field batteries in rear of the in fantry. E Battery, Royal Horse Artillery, repre sented the enemy, with three guns on Pyestock-hill, one gun on Miles's-hill, and two guns on Eelmoor hill. These guns commanded Cove-common and the whole of the open space between them and the division.- A pontoon bridge had been thrown across, the Basingtoke Canal at the foot of Bridge-hill, by A troop, Royal Engineers, under Lieutenant Sir-A. Mackworth, for the purpose of facilitating the at tack. Shortly before 11 o'clock the troops of the division began to move. The Ist, or General Rea ny's brigade, took ground to right in column to wards the Reservoir. General Carey's brigade (the 2d) formed on the left of the Ist, and both bri gades, covered by a strong line of skirmishers, ad vanced towards the several points of attack. At the same time two field batteries commenced a canno nade from Danger-hill on the enemy's position. The fire was returned in a spirited manner. The 3d brigade, under Major c.ieneral Sir Alfred Horsford, K.C.8., remained in reserve. Meanwhile, the ca valry division, and C and D Batteries, Royal Horse Artillery, made a detour through Pyestock-wood towards Norris-bridge. The infantry, having fought their way steadily over about a mile of very diffi cult ground, passed to the south side of the Basing stoke Canal, under cover of a terrific fire of artillery and strong lines of skirmishers skirting the canal. The 3d brigade passed over the pontoon bridge, the 2d over Eelmoor stone bridge, and the Ist brigade, the cavalry, and the Horse Artillery over Norris bridge, on the right of the attacking force. As soon as they gained the southern side of the canal General Renny's brigade changed direction to left, and the 2d brigade to right, thereby threatening to hem in the enemy between a cross fire. Seeing his critical position the enemy's commander ordered a retreat to the south of Eelmoor-bill, where he again went into action with his usual dash. The fire was responded to by two field batteries from the front, and two batteries of Horse Artillery enfi laded him on the left flank, but apparently without effect. As soon as this was perceived by the divisional commander, he ordered the 2d and 3d infantry brigades to form one line, and as soon as this was accomplished they opened a deadly file-fire, which was kept up for about ten minutes, after which they ceased firing, and the brigade went into action on the right, and subjected the enemy to a cross fire, which compelled him to retire to the south of Claycart-ridge, where he once more stood at bay, and defied all the efforts of the division to dislodge him. Ultimately he returned to quarter s unmolested. The remainder of the division formed up on Eelmoor-hill, and marched past as usual, - headed by their respective commanders. The force on the ground consisted of C, D, and E B ateries, Royal Horse Artillery ; Ist, 4th, and sth Dragoon Guards, 10th Hussars, three fiel batteries, 11th Brigade Royal Artillery, 21 battalion sth (Northum land) Fusiliers, 2d battalion 6th Regiment, 2d bat talion Bth, Ist battalion 20th, 34th, 40th, 51st, 57th, 80th, 97th, and 98th Regiments. The troops returned to quarters at half-past one o'clock. A general full-dress parade of the whole of the officers and men of the corps of Royal Engineers was held on the Parade-ground at Brompton-bar racks, Chatham, on Saturday morning, for the pur pose of witnessing the presentation by Prince Arthur of silver medals and gratuities which had been awarded to a number of the non-commissioned officers and sappers by the Field-Marshal Com manding-in-Chief, Colonel of the regiment, for long serv ice and exempl ar y conduct, under the pro visions of the recent Royal warrant. The battalion having formed three sides of a square, Prince Arthur, who wore the full dress uniform of a lieutenant of Royal Engineers, attended by Lieut.-Col. H. C. Elphinstone, C. 8., V.C., and ac companied by Major-Gen. J. L. A. Simmons, C. 8., director of the Royal Engineer establishment, ad vanced to the centre, when the general order from the Horse Guards authorising the presentation was read by Brigade-Major R. Harrison. Major-Gen. Simmons having addressed the battalion at some length, and expressed the honour conferred on the officers and men of the Royal Engineers by Prince Arthur performing that almost his first official act on joining the corps, the non-commissioned officers and sappers to be decorated were called to the front, when his Royal Highness presented and fastened the medal to the breast of each, and afterwards shook hands with each of the recipients. The fol lowing are the non-commissioned officers and sappers to whom medals and gratuities have been awarded : —Sergeant-Major William Baker, Farrier-Major Thomas Jane, Colour-Sergeant West T. Birming ham, and Sergeant William Barnard, each a medal and gratuity of £l5 ; Quartermaster -Sergeants J. Barrow and Richard J. Dyer, Sergeant-Instructor John Kennedy, Colour-Sergeants William Roger son and Thomas Russell, and Sergeants Peter Ham mond, William Jenkins, Charles Muir, and Thos. Wray, and Corporal John Callanan, each a medal and gratuity of /10 ; Corporal Edward Evans and Sappers Chas. Harris, John W. Parker, and John Wheeler, each a medal and gratuity of £5. The following non-commissioned officers were at the same time presented with silver medals with out gratuities—viz., Pensioner Serg.-Major Edward Longbottom, Quartermaster-Serg. John J. West, and William Love ; Pensioner Colour-Sergeant Francis G. Irwin, Pensioner-Sergeants Michael F. Chapman, William Wheatley, Thomas Bennett, James Whitefield, and Robert Young, Corporals Richard Hancock and John Park, and Pensioner- Corporal John Corrie. The medals and gratuities for those non-commissioned officers and sappers not at head-quarters will be forwarded to them at the various stations. Lieuts. Nolan and Chapman, of the Royal Ar tillery, the officers specially attached to the Steel Mountain Battery in Abyssinia, and who arrived in Woolwich a few days ago, give some very inte resting details of the effects of the fire from these little guns, which is said to have been rnostdestruc tive, particularly with the Boxer shrapnell shell. To-day will be observed as a general holyday in all Government establishments, in commemoration of Her Majesty's Coronation-day. The screw steam sloop Cordelia, 11, Commander Charles Parry, from Port Royal, May2B, arrived in Plymouth Sound yesterday. She has been in com mission four years, but has only lost four of her complement—Paymaster Key, Engineer Oldfield, and boatswain John Cannon from consumption, and William Kellow, A. 8., who was killed by falling from aloft. The Cordelia spoke, June 18, in lat. 44 10 N., long. 33 36 W., the American ship Guiding Star, steering north ; June 23, in lat. 28 46 N., long. 194 W., the Essex, of Windsor, Nova Scotia ; and June 27, the Rinaldo, of Liver pool, outward bound. _ SPORTING NOTES. ----- The Alexandra Park, situated on Muswell Hill, will b 3 the centre of attraction to-morrow and Wednesday to the elite of the sporting community in town, as on those days the new race meeting will be inaugurated—there can be little doubt from the programme—with first-rate sport. Those who have not yet had the opportunity of paying a visit to this charming spot will be afforded a treat which, as far as scenery and other attractions in connection with the Park, &c., are concerned, it is impossible to surpass. Combined with this, certain comforts which are conspicu ous by their absence from other meetings, may be fully anticipated here from the spirit and energy which have characterised the proceedings of the directors throughout the whole of their arduous undertaking. We are promised a plentiful supply of water, which, it is to be hoped, will ' not be limited to the course itself, as the approaches thereto ought not to be overlooked; and, better still, steps are to be taken to prevent welshers an I thieves from in truding into the Pirk. Thera will also be plenty of con venience for refreshments, an 1, a'though it would be a novel, certainly it would be a pleasant fact - , to find then of tirst-rate quality at a reasonable pricl. If the Cone.2any will only act in a liberal spirit, consistently with their own interest, towards the publ!c, I de not he iitate to assert that the meeting in question can be made in a short time to rival, if not excel, any other in the country exc'pt New market. _There are six races annouuc3d for each d ty, and the added money to most of thorn is of a very lib.ral nature. The Two-Year-Old Stakes has sixty-nine nominations, bat a good many of them have already proved how hope less is their chance. Amongst the penalised lot, from whom most danger is to be apprehended, are Do Vere, Brigantine, and Electricity. On the other hand, RING or TUE RovErts has not any penalty to carry, and I expect to see him and ELECTRICITY ru first and second. There are only eleven acceptances for the Palace Handi cap, but as they are just out wa may expect to see mast of them at the post. Ido not fancy any of the three top weights—Goodwood, Gornera, or Success —on the present occasion. Feodor is very wall in, and a fair-class horse, but will not run up to his private trials, according to re port. Minster Ball and Tabouret are both in T. Dawson's stable; and notwithstanding the latter has incurred a 31b penalty for his victory last week at N wca itle-on-TfLio, I. believe in his being able to win. Ho may, however, be re served for the Goodwood Stakes. The gelding by Vedette out of Vixen, or Virginia Creeper, might be successful; still I do not believe in either of them this journey. Prince Regent ran badly at Hampton, so also did Examiner ; therefore, if he starts, LanounET is my absolute selection. In his absence FEonoß, if in the humour, will win. For the Alexandra Plate I see nothing to beat THE CZAR, whose weight is only 7st 41b. He won the Lambton Plate at Newcastle with Bst 101 b on his back, and was giving to the three-year-olds in that race between 2 and 3 stone, whereas now he meets most of them at a difference of 7or 81bs. In case he should not be sent so far South, my preference is WARLIKE. If Licvoß runs for the Welter Cup he would have uo difficulty in win- ning. The Grand Prize, with the handsome sum of 500 sovs added, has a good many of the bast-class horses en gaged. Of the twenty-three subscribers Oro of them, Mariner and Uncas, are already hors de combat, and what earthly chance Milton, Dalby, Paul Jonas, Mortemer, Ne lusko, Head Centre, Goodwood, and Strathconan can pcs sibly have in this company [ am at a loss to conceive. The remaining lot have to carry weight in the following proportions : Age st lb Age st lb Laneret ... 5 9 3 St. Ronan ... 3 7 12 Friponnier... ... 4 9 1 Moslem ... 3 712 Achievement ... 4 9 0 Vale Royal._ 3 7 r Knigbtof the Garter 48 13 Speculum ... ... 3 710 Trocadero ... 4 8 10 Formosa ... 3 7 9 Viridis 4 810 Beauty ... ... 3 7 7 Laneret 'gave us a taste of his quality at Ascot by de feating Martyr and Vespasian in the All Aged Stakes, but as Friponnier is reported to have recovered his last year's form, I think he will beat all the animals engaged without any trouble, except Knight of the Garter, who never was better, Orion, and Speculum. Between these four a close contest may be looked for, and I anticipate that KNIGHT OF THE GARTER will turn out the winner. I consider FLEETW[NG, KING of the ROVERS, and Biun's EYE are best in for the Nursery Plate, and of the twenty five nominations for the Muswell Hill Stakes, DISTAFF and PRINCE REGENT are not badly treated. Chelmsford and Worcester Meetings unfortunately clash together on Thursday and Friday, but the best qua lity of racing will be at the latter place. At Chelmsford, on the first day, NOVICE and COURT CARD are both " turned loose." The Sweepstakes of 10 goys each is a gift to 'ELECTRICITY. The Great Baddow Two Year Old Stakes will, I presume, go to Aatanou, who won a two year old race in the spring in the commonest of cantors. _ _ The Chelmsford Nursery Handicap, run on Friday, has I ESHER engaged, and he has shown sufficient form lately to induce me to select him. I have also a very goad opi nion of MERRY ANDREW for the Ilylauds Handicap Plate. There are very few..parts of the country which can be so appropriately - zaltod "--T he -Gordon- of England " as tile v;ciuity of Worcester, where the fair maidens are entitled to the dignity of P.P.P. ; the simple translation being poor, pretty, and proud. The principal race on Thurs lay will b 3 the Worcester shire Stakes, and for that, without troubling your readers with unnecessary comments, I shall pin my faith on BLACK LOCK, who has, I think, most to fear from LIGURIAN. T he Croome Handicap Sweepstakes will go to Mr. Naylor's representative, MONARCH OF THE GLEN or LADY HIGH THORN, unless Lily should upset the pair of them, and Dram has nothing to complain of in Tha Grand Stan 1 Plata. There aro sundry animals with a great turn of speed engaged in the Flying Stakes on Friday, of which LILY is my choice, but Lowe has three engaged—lronmaster, Goodfellow, and King of the Rovers, one of whom may go fast enough to defeat her. DUET and DRUM are very well in for the Worcester Cup. AcT,EA is a better class than the others engaged in the Bantinck Benevolent Fund Stakes. whilst HILDA and WINIFRED will most likely attract the Judge's attention for the Coventry Stakes. A FRESH MAN.

THE EASTERN FISHERIES.—The mackerel fishery has been prosecuted with increased success off the Eastern coast during the past week. Prices have ranged from 10s. 6d. to 18s. per LU. The deliveries at Lowestoft have also increased. The supply of trawled fish is limited, and there has been but little doing in Midsummer herrings. A. correspondent of the Record calls attention to the fact that the Superior-General of the " Confra ternity of the Blessed Sacrament of the Body and Blood of Christ," is Mr. Carter, of Clewer, rector of Windsor, who is also warden and confessor to the Clewer Sisterhood. The manual of this Confraternity is privately printed by Masters, of Bond street, the publisher of the Ritualistic works. Copies are sent by the Sisters to the Asso ciates of Clewer House of Mercy, now numbering about GOO persons. Of this conventual sister, hood the Bishop of Oxford is visitor, and the lady superior is Mrs. Monsell, the aunt of the Roman Catholic member for Limerick, and a frequent visi— tor at London house, Mrs. Tait being her cou,in. The House of Charity, Greek-street, Soho, of which the Rev. Mr. Chambers, an extreme Ritualist, is warden, us well as the adjacent house, 9, Rose street, is worked by Clewer Sisters. The house in Rose-street is one of the Loudon houses where Mr. Carter meets ladies for confession. Mrs. Mouse.ll, lait, and Mrs. Gladstone may often be seen visiting the various sisterhoods in London which they so ardently patronise.
