ASSAULTING THE POLICE.—Henry Heighten was charged by officer 213 with having assaulted him on Friday last while in the discharge of his duty. The officer stated that on the day named he was in 40 'Anse, when he observed a great crowd in the street gathered around the prisoner and another man, ivho were fighting. He immediately went out and requested them to desist. One of them did so, and went quietly away ; but the prisoner " up with fist" and knocked complainant down. He remained on the ground for some time, being in sensible from the kicks and blows he received from the bystanders. On coming to his senses he found the prisoner had made off, and it was not without some difficulty he succeeded in recapturing him. Mrpretherton, who ap peared for the defence, cross-examined the officer at some length, and succeeded in eliciting the fact that be fore any assault had been committed, the officer vio lently seized the prisoner by the throat, and half throt tled him. Mr. Bretherton was about to make some remarks on this point, when he was interrupted by Capt. Smith, as follows :—" Really, Mr. Bretherton, I must appeal to the bench ; I wonder how often an advocate is to address the tench on behalf of his client ?" Mr. Bretherton : I am not addressing the bench, the witness is now in my hands; and allow me to state that although I, as an advocate, bow to the decision of the court, I will not be lectured by Captain Smith, or any other captain. The case then proceeded, and the mairistrates inflicted a fine of 21s. and costs, or imprisonment for twenty-one days. PLUNDERING A WRECK.—Two men, named respec tively Smith and Thomas, were charged by Inspector Gregson with plundering the ship Queen Victoria, she being then stranded on the beach near Egremont. In consequence of there not being sufficient evidence to proceed with this charge, his worship heard the case as one of having stolen wrecked property in the prisoners' possession.—An officer was called to prove this, and the prisoners were ordered to pay £5 each above the value of the goods, or go to prison for two months. The following appeared in a portion of our im pression of yesterday : TUSCANY. [REUTER'S TELEGRAM.] FLORENCE, Nov. 2. The elections of the members of the Munici pality at Florence, and other places in Tuscany, have terminated without any result, on account of almost all the electors having abstained from voting. The National Assembly has been con voked for the 7th November. CANADA AND THE UNITED STATES. The steamers City of Washington, from New York, and Indian, from Quebec, both of which left their respective ports on the 22nd ult., are coming up the river. THE REVOLUTION IN NEW GRANADA. Bogota advices to Sept. 16th, state that the re demption of the home debt had been suspended, and the ports of Carthagena and Savanilla closed. The British and United States ministers had called on the foreign minister to endeavour to have the ports re-opened, but without success. ENGLAND AND THE CONGRESS. The Paris correspondent of the Post says that Lord John Russell has, within the last day or two, addressed to the Government of France a despatch, which sets forth on what terms the British Cabinet will send 'envoys to the proposed Congress for settling the provisions of the treaty of Villafranca. These terms, the writer says, are such as will be approved of by the people of Eng land and the friends of Italy. THE CHANNEL FLEET IN THE GALE OF LAST WEEK. The channel fleet appears to have been ably man oeuvred on this occasion. The admiral determined to wear the, fleet together, and stand off and face the storm. Five out of seven vessels kept in open order throughout that terrible night, and wore in succession by night sig nal. At about 1 a.m. made the land. At daylight formed line-of-battle, and came grandly up Channel under sail, at the rate of eleven knots an hour—steamed into Portland, and took up their anchorage, without the loss of a sail, a spar, or a rope-yarn. The Times remarks, it is evident enough that our ships and our seamen still maintain their ancient character ; and, also, that seamanship is still an indis pensable condition to nautical efficiency. WRECK OF ONE OF THE LEVANT STEAMERS. - FIVE OF THE CREW DROWNED. The screw-steamer Africa, which left this port on Saturday last, has been wrecked off the Cornish coast, at Padstow. She was bound for Constantiple with a valua ble cargo. The captain. two engineers, and stoker, are drowned. The funnel has been blown away, the wheel and wheel-house destroyed, and there is 10 feet water in her hold. The particulars respecting the occurrence are very meagre as yet; but on calling at the owners' office, to-day, we were informed of the above lamentable facts. The cargo, we understand, was a valuable one ; and, although hopes are entertained that the ship will be saved, , yet it must be naturally presumed that much damage will ensue. No official intelligence has yet arrived respecting the wreck of the vessel; however, the information respect ing the loss of the five officers above referred to, may be relied upon as authentic. It is supposed that the vessel having encountered one of the late severe gales, so common at - this season of the year on the Cornish coast, became disabled, so that the efforts of the captain and the others to right her, were unavailing. The names of those drowned are, Capt. Richardson, and Messrs. Galbraith and Brown, engi neers. We have not yet learned the names of the car penter and stoker. The Queen and several of the royal family are ex pected to take part in the ceremony of launching, on the 12th inst., the Victoria, 121 guns. . Numbers of young men who have been thrown out of work through the builders' strike have joined her Majesty's service. The Royal Marine Artillery is to be separated from the Royal Marine Light Infantry, to form an indepen dent corps and command with their own staff. At no time since the Russian war has a greater acti vity been perceptible than at the present moment at Woolwich Arsenal, in the preparation and export of ammunition and war materials for the defence of our coast and for China. THE WRECK. OF THE 40YAL CHARTER.—AS some very inaccurate particulars have been published of the melancholy fate of the Rev. Charles Vere Hodge, who was a passenger from New Zealand by, the Royal Char ter, we publish the following authentic particulars, gleaned from a local corresp . onclent :—The rev. gentle man was appointed to the vicarage of Ciareborough in 1844, and shortly afterwards his wife, from some un-: settled disposition, proposed to visit some distant re lation in New Zealand. Notwithstanding all the re, monstrances of her husband; she proceeded to the an tipodes, without a guide, protector, or friend. After re maining some years there, she returned to this country, and again took up her residence with her husband and children, of whom she was the mother of ten—seven sons and three daughters. She, however, could not rest long in this country, and ultimately persuaded her 'husband and part of her family to accompany her to New Zealand. For this purpose the rev. gentleman applied to and obtained leave of absence from the bishop of his diocese for two . years, but at the expiration of that period, not returmng, a monition was issued for hisimmediate return to his cure. It was in obedience to this mandate that the rev. gentleman was returning in the Royal Charter, when he met his melancholy fate. Mr. Hodge left behind him in New Zealand his wife and three sons. Three sons and one daughter are at present in England, the others havin g died in infancy.. Mr. Hodge's only brother, the Rev. Henry Vero Hodge, M.A., perpetual curate of Middleton, sear Tamvtorth, is at present engaged in the melancholy duty of watch ing the shore in the immediate neighbourhood of the wreck, seeking to recognise the person of the deceased. Mr. Hodge was universally .re9eCted and held in high esteem by . his parislioners for his deep-rooted'piety and sincerity in all things.-01o6e. MONTALEMBERT ON ENGLISH POLICY. The following remarks upon the policy of England occur in M. de Montalembert's celebrated paper, " Pie IX. et la France en 1849 et 1859" : " As for England, I admit without difficulty all the accusations alleged against her for the part she has played in Italy. More than ever I have thought it right to express in these pages the embarrassment and the annoyance one feels in 'speaking the truth on the faults and vices of England for fear of being confounded (at a period when the art of confounding is very wil lingly practised) with her stupid and brawling detractors, who attack in her only liberty, dignity, and political vitality, and who believe they defend Catholicity by maintaining that people are more happy, prouder, and more free in Naples than in London, simply because they work less at the foot of Mount Vesuvius than on the banks of the Thames But one has less pain in overcoming this embarrassment and this annoyance when he is, as I am, and when he remains, the sincere friend and passionate admirer—l have perhaps the right to say ,the well-known confessor to the manly virtues and glorious institutions which have placed England in the high position she occupies. She must take care not to fall from that height. She will assuredly not long remain on it if she continue to follow in the affairs of Europe the tortuous and immoral policy which charac terises her attempts at action in Italy. At first to do her utmost to prevent the war ; to take, when war is once declared, no part direct or indirect in it, but the moment peace is made, to intervene with an arrogance and a persistence which the noblest sacrifices on her part would hardly justify; to intervene in order to envenom all the difficulties and to increase all the dano•ers,— such a part has but one name—it is ignoble ! his true that since the sensible and honourable despatches of Lord Malmesbury before the opening of the war, and the recent harangue of Lord John Russell at Aberdeen, a change of ministry has taken place. Thenty-one Catholic deputies of Ireland, the masters of the majority in a new Parliament, have had at a moment the most critical for the Papacy the flue idea of transferring power from the hands of Lord Derby, and a ministry essentially Conservative, moderate, and full of good will towards the Catholics, to those of Lord Palmerston, whom every one knows, and Lord J. Russell, who distinguished himself among all the statesmen of England by the violence of his invectives against the religion which is professed by 150 millions of Christians and 10 millions of British subjects; and of Mr. Gladstone, who, I regret to say, placed himself by his last tirade against Pius IX. on a level with Lord John. But, as has been already ob served with respect to France, nations are, and continue to be, participators of the foreign policy of their governments. Whatever be the changes that have occurred in the English ministry, all England bears, and will bear, the moral responsibility of the tergiver sations, the perfidy, and the violence of her leaders. England is alarmed at her isolated and menaced condition in contemporaneous Europe. She is right to be alarmed. In spite of the heroism displayed by her children against the insurgents of India, she feels instinctively that the days of Nelson and of Wellington, of Burke and of Chatham, have passed away, and she deplores it. She would do better to de plore the gradual destruction of public and social spirit which produced her great men. But a day will come, perhaps will soon come, but still too soon for the friends of liberty and civilisation, when she shall find what matchless folly she has committed in arraying against her with all the animosities, all the rancours, all the jealousies which she excites, and which she aggravate.= every day, the just resentment and the filial anguish of 100,000,000 of Catholics." LORD RECTORSHIP OF EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY.— In addition to the office of Chancellor, who is elected for life by the . graduates, the act which now comes into operation gives to the students the choice of a Lord Rector, who is a member of the University Court, and who also appoints an assessor to sit in that court of seven members. The election takes place on the 12th; and among the names that have been mentioned as likely to be fixed upon are the Lord Chancellor, Lord John Russell, Mr. W. E. Gladstone, and Mr. Disraeli. SERIOUS SHELL EXPLOSION AT W OOLWICH ARSENAL. —On Wednesday afternoon, a very serious accident occurred at Woolwich Arsenal, by the unexpected-explo sion of an eight-inch shell, which had been returned with a number of similar shells as old stores from the Channel Islands. It appears that a gang of labourers were employed at the wharf i n breaking up these missiles, which had previously been tested to ascertain if they were empty, 'when, on apply ing the hammer, one of the shells exploded with a loud report, and the men standing near were thrown about in all directions. The utmost consternation prevailed, and hundreds rushed to the spot from all parts of the establishment, when it was found that three men, named Daniel Bremmer, Morris Caen, and William Norgrove, had sustained most extensive injuries. The sufferers were instantly conveyed to the infirmary (which has been established since the last fatal explosion), and promptly attended by Drs. Briscoe and Coleman ; and on inquiring at the establishment at nine o'clock last evening, we ascertained that fatal results are not antici pated, although the men will require the Most constant attention. Considering the nature of the accident, it is a providential circumstance that several lives were not sacrificed. A PRINCE'S Toys.—l have just been shown the model of the railway carriages, manufactured for the Prince Imperial at St. Cloud. They are certainly very pretty, but vastly absurd. Imagine that a part of the Home Park is set aside and cut up for a mimic rail road, upon which this large-headed chubby child (the picture of the Bonapartes in their obese period of life) exercises himself as a stoker. The miniature is complete. There is a railway which winds round in the shape of an 8, with a viaduct and a tunnel, and every " accident of ground" you can conceive. Then there is a tent close by, in which this infant corporal of the Imperial Guard can repose when he is tired of his exertions ; and a little further on is a wee target, at which his Im perial Highness learns to shoot with a baby gun, under the direction of "papa." The whole thing has an air of General Tom 'rhumb that makes it supremely ridiculous ; but the Imperialist French mind appears much gratified at it, nevertheless ; and from certain hungry senators, down to the senators of St. Cloud (perhaps less abject " flunkies" than the others), the " laying out" of the railway decoration, and the pro bability of the young boy (whom they all agree will most likely never reign here) being is time an expert micanicien, are sources of, it would seem, no inconsider able satisfaction to the entourage. Some of them in dulge in the hope of seeing the child practise all these antics at Windsor—when "papa" shall have "annexed" England.—. Paris Letter. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF FRAUD.—NOTTINGHAM, Wednesday. A wholesale system of swindling has , just been brought to light, the particulars of which are as follow :—A few days ago, Messrs. Thomas Hall, Sons, and Co., extensive manufacturers of patent starch, dextrine, &c., New Lenton, near Nottingham, received an order from Michael Flood, (the order being written upon a bill head,) in which Flood was represented as a wholesale dealer in china glass, &c., and importer of foreign fancy goods, Manchester. Messrs. Hall were requested to send £lO worth of starch, by the following letter :—" Sir,—Please send me about £lO worth of starch, in one and two ounce packets, and please to take the discount off, and on receipt of invoice I will send you the half of a £lO note, and on receipt of goods I will forward you the other half."— Messrs. Hall refused to send the starch; upon the ground that they did not know Mr. Flood ; they must, there fore, have either a reference or cash. A few days after they received the half of a £lO Bank of England note, No. BH 05858, and the starch was immediately forwarded. The other half of the note was not, however, sent. When pressed for payment, Flood said his wife had mis laid it, but if the Messrs. Hall would return the half first forwarded it should be made right at the bank, and a postkiffice order sent in payment of the bill. Suspicions were aroused that all was notright, and the police at Man chester were communicated with ; upon hearing which Flood put out a handbill offering a reward of £5 to any person returning the halves of several Bank of England notes which were represented as having been lost or stolen. In the meantime Mr. Frederick Hal, one of the partners in the firm, had arrived in Manchester from Nottingham, and went with detective Taylor, of that city, to the residence of Mr. Holdez• This gentleman had lost in September last, in Manchester, the halves of £BOO worth of notes.

NOVEMBER 4, 1859 THE .APPROACHING SCHILLER FES TIVAL AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE. On the 10th of November there will be a great. gathering at the Crystal Palace in celebration of the centenary of the poet, Friedrich Schiller, who, with Goethe, sits enthroned on'the summit of the German Parnassus. From the outline of the programme that has been furnished to us, we gather that there will be grand orchestral and other musical arrangements on a scale suited to the vast dimensions of the Palace. A feature of the performance of Nov. 10th will be the mila cal execution of the Cantata, a poem written in lofty, heart-stirring strains, worthy of theme : a tribute which Freiligrath's noble muso has offered to the manes of Schiller. This homage of the living bard to the memory of the depart Titan of the classic age of German poetry, sc l "' not fail to arouse the enthusiasm of all Ger nia l hearts. In the United States, too, another der poem by Freiligrath, composed at the request, of the Germans there, will be sung on the occasion through - but the length and breadth of the Bt public. During the performance of the Ca'!•,t; in the Crystal Palace, there will be an unveo,"`e' the ,great of a bust of. Schiller, now being executed ill heroic size, by the sculptor Grass. Another teresting feature will be the performance of - 11 Z e ' berg's music to the Lay of the Bell, to do jil s.- n a to which a thousand vocalists, both English ai e German, will lend their aid. There will ids ° fie part-singing by various German clubs. But °;,, of the principal attractions will be an en ,4" '„ novelty to most Euglishmen, though one 5 0 6 : tirely characteristic and popular with the G°' mans. This is a grand torchlight proce The effects of these processions, combined' ? great occasions gives rise generally to extraordisra excitement in Germany. Even on the 10th November, a truly national occasion in Bet the government have not thought it advisable r allow the wished-for torchlight processsion , Fackelzug, to take place. Here no such rest l ; l 3e , tion applies, or happily is needed, and the monstration will be complete. It will take ?_;:a along the upper terraces and is the garden , w* -- will, doubtless, produce an astonishing effeet , , re i, fleeted on the glass facade of the Palace, 'a accompanied by a display of the fountains, 0 , 1 , e an illumination of the Schiller statue on t' upper terrace.

Ist, 1859. - • CLOSE OF TILE POLL George Niekson Clarke Aspinall Majority. - , - 105 TO THE ELECTORS OF LIME-STREET WARD GENTLEMEN, — T AM deeply sensible of the honour you have this day conferred upon me, for the second time, m electing me as one of your Representatives in the Town Council,• and that almost with unanimity—though, for the mere purpose of annoyance, you have had to encounter a sham opposition, and I a phantom antagonist. Whilst congratulating you, as I do heartily, on the triumph of Liberal principles in your Ward, I shall not trouble you with any exuberant professions of gratitude on my own behalf, be cause I think such professions uncalled for, wherever the rela tions between the representative and the represented are pro perly understood. I respect you too highly not to believe that, in your opinion, as well as in mine, thanks are due to the men who, without any personal interests to serve, and frequently in opposition to those interests, devote time, attention, and labour to service of the community, either as Town Coun cillors or as Members of Parliament, rather than from them to the electors who have imposed upon them most onerous public duties, and this most especially when the occasion is a renewal of trust, not the conferring otit for the first time. Nevertheless, so far as fou and I are concerned, I am most highly gratified by the result of the day, because my re-elec tion, after three years' probation, is your verdict that if I have not been able to accomplish all that I have attempted, I have at all events endeavoured, faithfully and perseveringly, to dis charge my duty towards you, and toward the Borough at large. _ _ There can be no higher compliment to any man than such a verdict as this, from his fellow-townsmen; and I value it accordingly. To all of you who have been instrumental in conferring this compliment on me, and to all who would have been instru mental had the occasion called for their exertions, I return nay grateful acknowledgments, with' the assurance that I will en deavour to merit it by a continuance in that line of conduct which has obtained for , me so signal a proof of your approba tion.—l have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your obedient servant, JAS.
