As has often proved the case before in America, tne Radical triumph in the elections has diminished on closer inspection. Telegrams, dated yesterday, at noon, from Philadelphia, report that the Re publicans had carried the elections in Ohio, but that their majority, which had been variously stated, was reduced to 16,000, and that the Indiana elec tions had been carried by a majority of 1,000 only, leaving a Democratic gain of 13,000. The Demo crats claim, moreover, to have gained no less than seven members of Congress by the week's selections, so that their position has manifestly improved. The Washington news of yesterday goes a step fur ther, for the Democrats in the capital actually claim to have carried the Indiana elections. We shall not know the truth of the matter for a day or two when the complete returns shall have been collected, and due examination made, but it is evident that the contest must have been a very close one. The New York Herald states that there is a movement among some of the Radicals to secure the withdrawal of Mr. SEYMOUR and Gene ral BLAIR, and to nominate Chief Justice CHASE. This is hardly likely to be so on many grounds. It would be a confession of weakness, and highly impolitic to change the whole base of operations in the middle of the campaign. The election is now so close at hand that a fresh candi date would have little chance of success, while Chief Justice CHASE is on many points altogether opposed to the Democrats. The rumour may have been set afloat for the purpose of damaging the De mocratic cause, or it may owe its origin to the caprices or extravagances of a few individual mem bers of the party. Congress assembled yesterday, though without a sufficient quorum, and it was therefore adjourned until the 10th 10th proximo. Little will be done until the Presidential struggle is decided, and on this the public interest is now centred.. We learn by the arrival of the Cuba, from New York on the Gth, that General APCLELLAN has written a letter expressing his wishes for the suc cess of the Democrats, but declaring his intention to take no part in the active business of the elec tion. In New York the Democrats are very busy. A procession of 40,000 strong has been making a demonstration through the streets ; bat such exhi bitions are so common in America that they cannot be accepted as indicative of the strength of a party. The troubles between white and black continue in parts of .the Southern States, and it is necessary to accept the accounts with caution since the partisans on either side greatly exaggerate them. The Radi cals are always famous for improving on reports, and we find that a riot at Apelousas, Louisiana, which on the 6th of October is described as result ing in the death of one white man and two negroes, on the 7th grew into the massacre of over 100 negroes and the sacking of two Republic news paper offices. There is no scruple about enlarging upon the news a hundredfold, and the Ame ricans ara well aware of this, so that the invention often fails of its purpose. The Indians are giving trouble in Arkansas and Texas, so that there are not lacking elements of disturbance in the Re public. Among the many new and important acts to be introduced into Parliament next year a Merchant Shipping Bill is not one of the least momentous. The value of our merchant shipping is so immense, the traffic so incessant, and the lives which are daily risked in its navigation so numerous, that its interests affect a very large proportion of the popu lation. Yet, notwithstanding the importance of the subject, the legislation respecting it is in a very unsatisfactory state. So wide a margin is allowed to the shipowner and the master that hundreds of lives are annually thrown away, and thousands of pounds' worth of property wasted, from the wretched condition in which ships are sent to sea. The large merchant vessels which take long voyages are generally safe enough. Accidents, of course, occur from the inevitable action of wind and wave ; but it is not often that their loss or disaster is distinctly traceable to defects in the ship or in the seamanship. With the vessels carrying on our coast trade, however, the matter is alto gether different, and the number of small vessels of the collier class yearly lost on our eastern coasts forms a very large proportion of the total losses of ships of all kinds wrecked in British waters. Often very old, badly constructed, kept together only by tar and pitch, ill found, insufficiently manned, with cables and anchors that will not bear a strain, they are sent out with perfect indifference by the owners, who indemnify themselves for their loss at the expense of the in surance offices. Year after year the lllreek Register tells us the SAIIIO sto y, with little apparent result. A letter addressed to a contemporary by a gentle man fatuiFar with the whole subject, himself a shipowner and a director of two marine insurance companies in Newcastle-on-Tyne, gives ample details of the manner in which these ships are sent to sea—to be lost, perhaps, within a day or two after leaving harbour. He cites a case of a vessel laden with coal for Shanghai, which had two feet of water in her hold before she left the Mersey, an I was abandoned before she was three days out. Besides the loss of property the lives of 15 men were risked with this ship, and the ease is by no means an isolated one, though, as we Mr. GLADSTONE has again favoured the electors of Liverpool with one of his orations, and he and Mr. GRENFELL attended a meeting last night at the Old Swan, and here the Opposition Leader in dulged himself in a few of his sly bits at his oppo nents. First of all he declared that the resolution of approval of his policy was quite justified by the " political history" of late years. Their opponents, under many titles, had always been against the establishment of freedom. It is convenient to have a short memory occasionally, and therefore Mr. GLADSTONE overlooks the fact that the Corn Laws were repealed by a Conservative Premier, and that the second Reform Bill was carried while the obstructive party were in office. But the right hon. gentleman, in his virtuous indignation, intends to judge men by past professions, and as Protection flourished when people entertained different views, so he holds them responsible for the enunciation of those views. If this doctrine were applied to himself it would not be quite so plea sant, and some passages from his famous work on " Church and State" would contrast ill with the processes of opinion his genius has developed. Of course it is not easy to find something different each time to enliven his discourse with, but the versatility and resources of the speaker in question are most abundant, and the first speech bristled with the sharp edges of his strictures on extravagrnce in the estimates, the second set forth the reforms that the Reform Bill needed, and the sins of omission and commission in respect to it. Yesterday the novice would have said there is nothing left to make the subject of satire, but, not to be baffled, Mr. GLADSTONE exorcises the spirit of Protection and it might have seemed at one time as if a gene ration bad rolled back, and the old palmy days of the League were in existence. What has Protec tion to do with the issues now before the country, and why should Mr. GLADSTONE take up the time of the electors in discussing it? The reason is plain to the initiated: he desires to (11,1:nage his opponents, and takes every opportunity, usual or unusual, to gain his ends. It is, however, very absurd, to say the least of it, for the public to be entertained with these reminiscences of bygone days ; and really one is tempted to retaliate, and say that if the Protec tionist party would have remained in to this day had they not obtained of f ice, or if Mr. GLADSTONE had not been disturbel from his comfortable loca tion in Downing-street, we should never have heard of the immediate necessity that existed for the dis establishment of the Irish Church. Even now, however, Mr. GLADSTONE can discern the traces of bygone events, and he announces it as the result of his experience that it was annoying to notice how the former Protectionists seized upon any oppor tunity that presented itself for the removal of re strictions. We must protest against the mode adopted by Mr. GLADSTONE in discussing questions in which he feels bitterly disappointed. It was most unsuitable for him to say that the " cause of the Reform Bill passing was the pulling down of the park railings by the mob." Such language mnight be consistent for Mr. BEALES and Mr. POTTER, but not for the man who has sat in the Councils of his Sovereign and led the House of ,Commons. Besides that, who has been, and even professes to be, the guide and exponent of the views of a great historical party in the State, one which upholds freedom of opinion, but not an unlicensed abuse of it, and which has not yet adopted Transatlantic cus toms with such avidity that it can put mob law be fore the just judgment of the educated and en lightened members of the community. It is all of a piece with the right honourable gentleman's new style of saying that Irish grievances must be redressed because Fenianism flourished on the soil, and it is about as unwise and impolitic as it is illogical and unreasonable. Mr. GLADSTONE may succeed in many things, but he will always fail as the leader of a party for two reasons : he has n) patience with his friends, and he can show no magnanimity to his opponents. Daunted in his desperate effort to seize the reins of Government this spring, he has launched upon the electioneering venture in a spirit of bitterness and tone of indignant reproach that augurs ill for the result when others follow in his wake. We do not wish in these days of modern improvements to find our legislators and the con stituencies of the Empire reviving the worst errors of the past, and making the counties and cities where the claims of rival candilates are to be set tled the scenes of squabbles and unworthy contests. The opinions of those whom it is worth while to in fluence can never be favourably impressed by the display of rancorous hostility, and it is therefore a matter of much regret that so refined a scholar, and so accomplished a gentle man as Mr. GLADSTONE undoubtedly is, should lower himself to the level of the demagogue and political agitator. The classic grace which once. marked his style is now exchanged for the wither ing sue 2r and the angry taunt, while principles are promulgate) and opinions broached in his discourse that he once would never have condescended to listen to. Ilis best friends and warmest admirers must lament this change, ens if he would hear reason they should impress upon him that the prize he seeks may not be worth the price he is bidding for it. The English public have no sympathy with clap-trap, and would rather tolerate a tardiness of judgment and a hesitation to intro duce necessary changes than they would willingly see their foremost statesmen, their men of mark and high repute making a desperate clutch at office, and, like HER MAJESTY. BALMORAL CASTLE, Oct. 15. The Queen, accompanied by Princess Louise and Prince Arthur, attended by Lady Churchill, went to the Glassalt Sheil yesterday. The Princess of Wales drove out, attended by the lion. Mrs. Coke, yesterday. LATEST INTELL MEND. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) THE REVOLUTION IN SPAIN. MADRID, Oct. 16. The Government has decided upon carrying out a monetary reform upon the basis of the French unit. It is announced that a loan of 700 millions of reals will be negotiated with an English banl‘ing firm on very equitable terms. Marshal Serrano and Admiral Topete left for Sa ragossa this morning. The revolutionary Junta of Malaga has given in its adhesion to the Provisional Government. It is stated that Senor Rios Rosas will be ap pointed Spanish Minister to the Court of Saint James, _ _ SARAGOSSA, Oct. 16, Evening. Marshal Serrano and Admiral Topete made a triumphal entry into this city to-day, and were received with great enthusiasm by the people. All Liberals of every shade fraternising. Marshal Serrano, Admiral Topete, and the Democratic leader Cartos delivered patriotic speeches in favour of liberty of conscience and the rights of individuals. The people unanimously cried, " Down with the Bourbons ;" " Long live Serrano, Prim, Topete, Olozaga, and Rivero." TUE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING;_ OCTOBER 17, 1868. have said, the greater number of preventible dis asters occur on onr own east coast in the small carrying trade. A Flanders paper, in writing of a shipwreck which occurred at Ostend, where an English collier striking a rock went to pieces in two hours, observes that it is incomprehensible how the English Government, so careful of the lives of its subjects ordinarily, " should allow certain ship owners, from motives of avarice, to send vessels to sea almost with the certainty of being lost." Mr. Hall, the gentleman we have referred to declares that the underwriters are powerless to remedy the evil. They keep on raising the premiums, but the burden falls upon the substantial and careful shipowner, not on the speculator, who buys a ship at the rate of four or five shillings a ton, sends her to sea, and gets his insurance when she goes to pieces. He therefore proposes a regular system of Government inspec tion, the appointment of a legal functionary to assist the local Marine Boards in official inquiries into cases of loss and misconduct in ship captains, and an extension of examination necessary to a master before he can take command of a foreign going or passenger ship to the home-carrying trade. These practical methods would no doubt do much to abate the evil, and we cannot but hope that they will be incorporated in the new Shipping Act. There are other points which de mand notice, more especially the system of over loading, so fatal in the case of the London, and more stringent rules with regard to the frequent collisions now occurring. Here is room for our professing reformers to show their zeal in regard to a matter involving the safety of thousands of brave lives and millions worth of property. sailors throwing overboard cargoes in a stcrm r abandoning first one cherished conviction and then another, putting the end before the means, untie 1 all landmarks and safeguards are shattered and", crumble away. Each speech of Mr. GLADSTONE': ; seems more bitter than the last, and when we re - member that these are the shadows only of comic: events, we may well be dismayed at the prospec of the substance. ‘t • • , • /kn . :* • - 143,1 , 1 /A 4 Trill TitACM DIEH toyte at ation house a constable came in with an u rnbrella and a hat, and the prisoner said, " That smy hat."

CAUTION TO CAB PROPRIETORS.-Mr. William Biddle, of 2, Gray-street, Manchester-square, cab proprietor, appeared to answer the complaint of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, of causing a horse to be worked while in an unfit state. From the evidence it appeared that on the 14th a gentlemen named Westly Roberts, residing at Marina, St. Leonards, hired the defendant's cab at the Paddington Hotel to take him to Charing-cross, and on the way he noticed the cab to lurch a good deal, and when in Regent-street the driver of the cab whipped the horse and it fell. Mr. Roberts took the number of the cab, and communicated with the Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Animals. Young, an officer of the Society, went to the defendant and told him there was a complaint against him, and on examining the horse found a large wound on its knees of long standing. Mr. Arthur Cherry, the Government veterinary surgeon, on examining the horse found it be worn out, in very poor condition, with broken knees blackened over, and having cuts on the inside of the fetlock joints from weakness. The defendant said he was not aware of the con dition of the horse, or he would not have sent it out. Mr. Cherry said the defendant was a beginner at the trade, and had other horses which were all but worthless. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the defendant 10s., and ordered him to pay 125.. 6d. costs.

KINGSCLERE. —For the Cambridgeshire I prefer Blue Gown to the Palmer, and he is sure to run a good horse, but I think he has too much weight on him to quite win. Criterion Stakes—Pero Gomez, King Cophetua, and Va gabond are engaged. The first-named I like the best. Vagabond is out of training. I think Siderolite will be entered for the Nursery, and with a fine weight will run well ; in fact, I think this stable will be worth following once more at head-quarters. NEWMARKET.—On Wednesday Siderolite, The Palmer, Blue Gown, Pero Gomez, and King Cophetua had a good gallop across the Flat. Nyanza led Restitution, Dragon led Mortemer, and Silenus led Lady Coventry up the Cam bridge Course. Warrington galloped over the same ground by himself. All these went very well. Goodwood was out early on the race ground side, but what Snowdrop did I cannot tell. Blos. galloped Knight of the Garter, Vauban, Prof. Anderson, Leases,Sir Oliver, and Indignation, while Target steered the two year olds, Brother to Chattanooga, Robespierre, Ventnor, Humdrum, Crown Princess, The Priest, Orphan, Acaster, and Martyrdom ; Pearlfeather also went well. Matthew Dawson's and Jennings's did good work. Gilbert's lot, including Reindeer, Ryshworth, Middleton Maid, Rajah, Ravioli, and Blueskin. On the Bury Hill side Hayhoe cantered Restitution and Nyanza, and afterwards the two went a steady gallop of about two miles, pulling up fresh and well. The Hermione and the Waterwitch colts galloped about a mile steadily. John Dawson's lot did the same as mentioned the day before. Friday—Cliff's Snowdrop went a good gallop. Nyanza led Restitution, and Silenus, Clairon, and Lady Coven try galloped the Cambridgeshire Course. Warrington went by himself. Joseph Dawson'S . Friday, Grimston, Knight Errant, and Artesian want a good gallop. Knight of the Garter and Professor Anderson went well. Hermit galloped the Cambridgeshire Course with Daley up. Target led a lot of two year olds. I have had at times a partial fondness for Lady Coventry, but still there is something at the present I don't like in her appearance, and as I believe both Mortemer and Restitution to have male great improvement, in selecting one to stand on it must be one of the Frenchmen, Mortemer or Nelusko. STOCKBItIDGE. —At Newmarket, we have Birdsoeker, Duchess, and Lady Raglan engaged in the Cambridge shire. The two latter are both well, and the last-named will be the best. I have not the sligatest doubt but she will run better than she did last time, as, apart from other causes, I am told she was snffering from sexual symptoms as well, which I have no doubt made a deal of difference to her. RICHMOND.—We have the following horses in good work :—Adamant, Declaration, Bessie Dixon, the Carnival colt, Caprera, The Gleaner, Virtue, Hind, National Guard colt, Last Rose of Summer, Annie Stewart, Ladas, Sweet Annie, Reltub, Ortie, Eyelids, Louisa, Buttercup, Belinda, Man of Rose, Underhand colt, and Clarionette. MIDDLEHAIL —The following horses have been doing good work :—The Dean, Savernake, The Corporal, Man drake, Mercury, Donaldbain, Tabouret, Itch colt, Calls toga, Hymen, Damsel filly, The Czar, Comus, Fleets, Slap Bang, Pomfret, Little Duke, Conrado, Inon, Palisade, John Osborne, Josephine, Beechwood, Etoilo Filante, Frolic some, Pride of Erin, Nuage, Footlight, Minster Bell, and Marking Ink. Wo shall not have many horses going to Newmarket, but The Corporal, The Dean, Mercury, Min ster Bell, and Ftoile Filante are all well. The Corporal is the best of our lot for the Cambridgeshire, and if lie only runs kindly he will take a lot of doing. STANTON.—WO shall not have many horses running at Newmarket. Abyssinia is engaged in the Criterion Stakes, but will be an absentee. Cambridgeshire. —We have See- Saw, The Returned, Ilarlyon, Fidelia, Ruric, and Jeannie Deans engaged. I think the first-named will be over weighted, and the market will be the best guide for the other three, my own preference being for Jeannie Deans, if they:ask her. I don't see any of our horses engaged in anything else at head -quarters. FINDON. —WO shall have several horses at Newmarket, but most of them will be for races yet tl close. On Mon day, in Criterion Stakes, we have Tasman ; but I think, from the work lie has done during the last two days, he will nut be wanted again this year. Cambridgeshire.— Our horses engaged are Lady Elizabeth, Romping Girl, filly by Newmiuster out of Irish Queen, Wolsey, Redo moute, and Hermitage, Since I last wrote they have all been in full work, cantering daily a mile twice, and wind ing up with a gallop of a mile and a half. Wolsey has won a most extraordinary trial, and I consider him certain to win the Cambridgeshire. I would strongly advise your readers to be on at once, for I can assure them it is like coining money to back him. CHILTON. - On Wednesday Acton did one steady canter of about a mile, after which she was stripped and sent a rattling gallop of two miles, going is splendid form. Thursday morning, after cantering, she did good mile and a-half work, going first-class. This (Friday) morning ehe was stripped, and had a rattling gallop of a mile and a half, the pace being good from beginning to end, and she pulled up as sound as a bell. I never saw the old mare look in such blooming condition as she is now, and a finer animal will not be stripped on Newmarket Heath next Tuesday. MALTON.—At Newmarket in the Criterion and Glasgow States we have Thunder, who is well, and has done a lot of good work, but, with all that, he would do with a little more time. Cambridgeshire.—Taraban is well and fit to run, and should he take into his head to try, he is almost certain to get a place. Sussex Stakes—Lyttleton never looked better in his life than he did up to the time of his leaving for Northallerton. HEDNESFOILD.—I have nothing to mention worthy of notice. All our best horses are nearly away, Cliff having about half a score at Newmarket. For the Cambridgeshire we have Vex and Alicia here now ; the latter is not in form. Vex has been doing steady work up the Coppy Gallop, but has too much weight on. ILSLEY.—DaIby will be our best for the Cambridgeshire. He is well and doing steady work, and if that was his true form in the Cesarewitch he cannot have much chance of winning, as he seemed to run very slow. Alaster, in the Sweepstakes of 60 sous each, is a moderate horse; and the same may be said of The Maze, in the Sussex Stakes. F YFIELD.—At Newmarket we have, in the Criterion, Bribery filly, Portsmouth, and Heather Bell. The Bribery filly is very fit and well. Portsmouth, I think, wants more time, but Heather Bell is as fresh as paint. I like her the best of this lot, and I think she will win. She has been doing some rattling good mile gallops, led by Tremble, going freely and well. Cambridgeshire.—Safety has no chance. Boanerges I have not seen do anything in the shape of a gallop since my last report. He made an at tempt to gallop on Thursday, but either would not or could not go, and was beaten by Juanita, Sister to Fran chise, and La Belle Helene. This (Friday) morning he was out, but I did not see him do any work. I went close to him, and he looks fit enough, but if he wins and returns to Fyfield I will eat him. LEwis.—Ethus and Messman have been doing some good work, and though I think the first-named has much improved, he is not quite class enough to win the Criterion Stakes at Newmarket. For the Cambridgeshire Stakes we have Choral, but as she has not been home since the first meeting, I can say nothing about her. Ersom.—We have Planet, Master Robert, Redcap, and Cecil in the Cambridgeshire. The throe first-mentioned are all in Mr. Hughes's stable, and if either of them has an outside chance it is Master Robert, but I have no fancy for him. Cecil made his appearance on the Downs on Wed nesday morning early, and did a slondid gallop of two miles, accompanied by Grand Duke ; and although he wore a hood and blinkers, as ho did when undergoing his Cesarewitch preparation (in fact ever since he came from Canterbury), he bounded along in grand style, and pulled up fresh and well. On Thursday he was out by six o'clock, and did some gentle walks of a mile, and after wards walked in the paddock. He was brought out again by Nightingall senior, accompanied by Warlike, about five o'clock, but from the thick fog that was spread over tho downs I could not see what he did. He was on Six-mile Hill about half an hour, and then went in. This day (Friday), after cantering, he hal a nice pipe opener of a mile and a half. HORSES STRUCK OUT OF THEIR ENGAGE MENTS.

FRIDAY, October I.IV There is nothing new from Spain except rumours. 1 111 revolution has now become a very dull affair, and is atoll so to continue until the Cortes meets and the freedom of, Spain is confirmed by the choice of a permanent Gover lid , meat. Amongst the reports is one to the effect that two English vessels had been refused admission to the port of Barcelona by the local Junta, which does not subscribe to the free-trade principles) decreed by th e Revolutionary Junta at Madrid. Such insubordinati on shews the necessity of thoroughly submitting these 10 01 governments to the central authority. Senor Mon, the Spanish Ambassador here, finds hin lseu In a curious position. He had pre v iously sent pis resignation to Queen Isabella's Minister of State, 1) 11 before it reached Madrid the Minister of State had found it advisable to disappear. Senor Mon then readdressed his resignation to Senor Madoz, of the Revolutiona r y Junta, but this gentleman had already resigned himsel f * In addition, the resignation of Senor Mon was not aben . lute, in case his services might become necessary to hiS country. He is at present there neither as Ambassador not demissionaire. No successor has been appointed, but Senor Mon has taken all his property from the Embassy' La France has an article on the disarmament reports, which is believed by many to be inspired by the Govern' went itself. It admits that it is time to put an end to the uncertainty which has so long prevailed, and that never has there been greater necessity to declare distinctly th e policy of the Empire before the nation and before Europe' A. clearly definite policy, liberal in home, pacific in foreign matters, would take away all public credence from the attacks of the hostile party which now so industriou sl y circulates the rumours of war. Who is the hostile party? The Government is undeniably assaulted in certain cliW" ters with an excess of acrimony ; but the distrust prevails everywhere. It is generally agreed, however, that the danger of war is diminishing, and it is not too much to say that there is a general expectation of the Emperors return being followed by decisive measures. The New Free Press publishes an interesting lett er , written by the Emperor Napoleon 111. to an e l ' schoolfellow who had become a surgeon and was in d ie ' tressed circumstances. He was unable to wait on th e Emperor when his Majesty was at Saltsburg in 1867, but he obtained an audience of Prince Napoleon at pest and was recommended to write to his former schoolfellov b Here is his reply : " Saint Cloud, Sept. 10.

BOW STREET. DARING OUTRAGE AND ROBBERY IN SOUTFIAMP TON-STREET, STRAND. —A neatly-dressed and deci dedly good-looking young man, about 20 years of age, who said his name was Charles Pain, was charged with brutally assaulting and robbing a lady in Southampton-street, and robbing her of a black bag, containing her purse and money, and several other articles. Mrs. Helsdon, the wife of a respectable trades man in Great Queen-street, Lincolns-inn-fields, stated that a little after seven o'clock last evening (Friday she was passing along Southampton - street, Strand, when a man, whom she believed to be the prisoner, came up to her, seized her bag, and wrenched it from her. As she did not readilly give it up but struggled to retain it, he struck her a violent blow in the face, and felled her to the ground. The blow was so severe that it knocked out two of her teeth and lo o sened another. A life-preserver be in g shown to the wit ness, she declared that she was quite unable to say whether she was struck with that or a similar wea. pon. The blow was so sudden and she was so confused by the . shock, that she could not tell what she was struck with. The man ran awayi As soon as she recovered sufficiently she followed and found him in custody of a police-sergeant iu Burleigh-street. The prisoner was about the same size and general appearance as the man who struck her. In the bag were a purse, 9f., and some arti cles she had purchased a few minutes previously. William Ward, a very intelligent lad of about 16 years of age, who said he was employed at a newspaper, said he was at the corner of Bur t leigb-street and Tavistock-street, and saw the prisoner, with the bag in his hand, running as fast as he could. He came from the direction of South ampton-street. Some one was crying " stop thief." In Burleigh-street the prisoner threw away the bag. Witness followed him till he was stopped by a police-sergeant, and then went back and picked up the bag, which he delivered to a constable. " Sergeant Burke, 3 F .11,, stated that seeing the prisoner running, and hearing cries of "stop thief," he stopped the prisoner, and held him till last witness came up and said he had knocked a lady down and robbed her of a bag. The prisoner said, "It was not me." Witness took him to the station and searched him, and found in one of his pockets an imitation gold chain, and between the skirt s of his coat and the lining a "life-preserver" with a large and heavy leaden knob, and a strong thick handle of whalebone and gutta percha, strongly bound with string. While he was at the THE SPANISH REVOLUTION. The Liberte announces that the Provisional Governme nt Is now negotiating with the representatives of the foreig ° Powers at Madrid with a view to its recognition by thos e Powers. Several Conferences have been held with ea ch of the foreign Ministers accredited to the late Gove rn ' ment. These, it will be remembered, still reside in the capital. The French Liberal journals continue to express their disappointment at the apparent failure of the Republic/0 party in Spain. The Liberte, in the person of M. Boll le de Girardin, again insists upon a Republic as the most available form of government, and as the least Wal t to incur the danger of renewed tyranny. An articl e 0 unusual merit appears in the Debats. The writer, M..1° 1311 Lemoinne, thinks the future of Spain, at least the kiln° • diate future, affords no reason for alarm. The delay which has been made the cause of so much a pprehens loll Du the part of the Liberte, was really unavoidable. 5.11 ; first thing was to get rid of the mon arc hy, an d this O P been accomplished with startling unanimity. It left not 9 fragment behind. In France successive revolutions 1 13ve [eft anciens partis ; but the fallen monarchy of SP 5ill cannot claim a follower. The first movement was 3 10 t 111 the capital, but the provinces ; the whole country was 1f it blaze before the conflagration reached Madrid. The chi c danger is now to be apprehended from divided councils. X' Lemoinne urges the Government to rapid movements. T h f e i first thing to be done is to overturn the old laws An ntablish new ones on the true principles of liberty. The question of persons will soon be settled. The municipal loan for the relief of the distress =oas t the lower orders goes on but slowly. It has‘reached oo° 3 700,000 reals.

One corre; spondent, in spite of the letter to the Gaulois, says i t I believed in all parts of Madrid that Prim will give support to the Iberian scheme. The same writer adds n this explains the conduct of Senor Olozaga in holding from the new Government. He has, indeed, consente d return to Spain, but he is not for the present going t° Madrid. He will spend a few days at his estate at A r i e° ' Olozaga is an unflinching monarchist, and therefore d oes not approve of the Iberian tend e nci es o f P r im, to 09; nothing of Serrano, In spite of this authority, the bala nce of evidence is on the sid e o f th e p resum pti on th a t Gene ra Prim favours a monarchical form of government. The price of provisions is declining at Madrid. Marshal Novaliches is rapidly recovering; that is, so Of as he can recover from a permanent mutilation. o 3 The number of slaves in the islands of Porto Rico an Cuba is nearly half a million, or one-fourth the eu t ' o3 population. The Presse publishes a letter, written, not by Prim h inv self, but by his chief staff-officer, and therefore calr iii e l with it his authority. The Presse i s ra th er roug hly hanu'i re in this epistle for publishing an article containing Ol e " statements not founded upon fact. Amongst these is' statement that Prussian money materially aided the 1 11' 'ntionary leaders.

The " Captain " O'Brien who esca p e d from 0°1:5 ofallow, may or may not have been a F en i an, b u t of m i o l agility there can be no doubt. The true story its flight does his " dash " and readiness of resou re s -relit. As elicited at the petty sessions, it is t n Then Harding, the keeper, went round ; the cells to O a hat all was right, Reidy heard him coming, and stell i e ie behind his cell-door. When Harding opened the cel l, went in, and Reidy, making a rush, got out, and locked th cell on the keeper, the key having been left in the lock ° the outside of the door. Reidy then made for the front d e°r ; but was foiled in his attempt to escape that way by the keeper's wife, who, seeing the prison er c om e o u t of his e eo ran and locked the front door. Reidy then took a ladder Wb i was in the yard, placed it again s t th e wa ll, an d a tt e mPte l :o getaway by this means. Mrs. H ar di ng , see i ng w h a t he 'l d at, ran and pulled the ladder away from him before he:, half way up.
