HANDLEY.

Cotrxry POLICE. -( Before Edward Castleman Esq.,
and Captain (urrie, Il.N.)—John Blandirml, of
Dean-Handley, a hurdle master, was brought up in
custody of Superintendent Baynton, charged upon
two informations with assaulting a poor ci ipple
named Stephen Short, who is without legs, threaten-
ing his life, breaking open his cottage door, and
swaving he would kill him. It appears that com-
plainant lives in a cottage belonging to defendant's
mother, and the offence was that complainant's
donkey ate up some of defendant's corn. The defend-
ant is a powerful man, nearly six feet high, and the
magistrates marked their sense of his brutal conduct
by fining him .C 3 for each assault, and hound him
over in two sureties for good behaviour for six
months.

Nsw YEAR'S DAT.—The first day of 1860 being
Sunday the usual aspect of New Year's Eve and day at
Edinburgh was considerably affected by the fact. On
Saturday night the only demonstrations observable ,
were, in the first place, by the weather, which grew
lachrymose towards midnight—mourning, of course the
departed year; and, secondly, by a few knots of people
collected at the street-corners, who, as twelve o'clock
struck, by somewhat feeble cheers hailed the advent of
1860. The police had little to do —certainly not more
than when 1858 breathed his last. On Sunday a heavy
rain, which continued all the forenoon, prevented mussy
from stirring out, but the weather cleared up in the
afternoon. The day was observed much as any Sunday
is observed till about ten o'clock in the evening, when
the desire to make a holiday an far began to overcome
the habitual reverence for the Sabbath that snatches of
song and noisy exclamations broke from groups gathered
here and there in the streets.—At Glasgow about
forty people congregated at the Cross on Saturday
night, and, as the last chime of the clock ushered in the
new-born year, attempted to raise • cheer, the faintness
of which showed that this mode of demonstration is in
a state of dissolution. Here, too, there does not Ram
to have been so much drunkenness as usual on this day
in Scotland.

CERNE.

An unusual occurrence took place in the parish
church here on Sunday week. immediately after the
close of the Her. W. H. Davis's sermon in the morn.
ing, an out man, named Hellyar, who was sitting in
tli singing g.illery, stood up, and signified his in.
tention of "returning thanks to Cod for having
spared him to see his s4th birthday, which was on
that day, and he wished to return thanks within the
consecrated I 4 al Is. " The rev, gentleman made one
or two attempts to cheek him, hut it was not till the
clerk went into the gallery to him that he could be
prevailed on to forego his intended offering.

AMERICA.

Pp to the 24th of December no Speaker had been
elected for the House of Representatives at Washington,
and therefore the President's Message remained unoon.-
municated.

The estimates for the next fiscal year exhibit a great
reduction of expenditure—no less than four millions
sterling as compared with President Pierce's Adminis-
tration. This certainly wears a pacific aspect.
The terms of the treaty which the 17iiited States have
made with the Mexican Government have been pub-
lished. They comprise fOlllO most important conces-
sions, such as the perpetual right of way across the
isthmus of Tehuantepec, the passage of goods free of
duty, the right to guard the transit by armed force,
he. In return the Americans are to pay some four mil-
lions of du/taxa—that is, eight hundred thousand pounds.

INDIA.

A telegram from Bombay gives us the important news
that two thousand rebels and t.o a leaders, Ilationoo
Khan, Khan Balidoor, Khon Beni Mandoo and his two
sons have been taken prisoners. The berm escaped.

AUSTRALIA.

When the last mail for England quitted Melbourne
waters it was at the close of a general election, which had
resulted in the return of a large majority hostile to the
O'Shanassy Administration. We now learn that that
Administration has been overthrown on the debate on
the Addresa. The Governor confided to Mr. Nicholson
the task of forming a new Administration, and the
following list was submitted to the Governor, and
received his approbation :—Chief Secretary, Mr. Nichol-
eon; Treasurer, Mr. M'Culloch ; Public Lands, Mr.
Service; Public Works, Mr. J. C. King; Poet Office,
Mr. Daily ; Customs, Mr. Pyke ; Attorney-General,
Mr. J. 1). Wood; Solicitor-General, Mr. Adamson.

WOOL MARKET.

Since our last report there has been a moderate
demand for deep-grown wool, chiefly for home use,
at full prices. In short wools, however, the trans-
actions have continued limited. For export to the
Continent scarcely any sales have taken place. The
supply of wool on offer is limited.

Letters from Constantinople to the •ttli ult, confirm
the sudden dismissal of Kibrisli Pacha, and affirm that
it was caused by his demanding a settlement of the debts
of the Seraglio and Hareem. Ruchdi Paella had been
appointed Grand Vizier, and A.li Pacha President of
the Tanzimat, which office was formerly held by Ruch,li
l'aclia. It was believed that Mehemet Kibrisli Puha
would soon be reappointed Grand Vizier. The frituds
of reform were dispirited, although Ruchdi Paths has
the reputation of being a reformer. The new Grand
Vizier had dispatched a note to the Powers, promising
his approval of the Suez Canal scheme, should they
wine to an understanding on the question.

New ARMENALB.-At a meeting of the Town Council
of Birmingham on Tuesday afternoon the Mayor an-
nounced that it was the intention of the Government to
establish a central arsenal, awl that various sites had
been spoken of as suitable. Birmingham being the
capital of the midland district., and also the centre of
a network of railways, surrounded also by a great popu-
lation, it was desirable, in the opinion of his worship,
that these facts should be brought before the attention
.4 the Government, and he suggested the presentation
of a memorial to the &Locative 0/1 the subject, which
was agreed to.

STU RMINSTER NEWTON.

One of the best lectures we have ever heard from
Mr. Spinney rand we have heard many), was
delivered on Wednesday evening to the members of
the Literary institution; the general subject being
" Music," but it embraced a variety of topics.
Conmencing with a discussion on the philosophy of
sound, the character of the atmosphere as a medium
of transmission, the theory of vibrations, &c., this
led to the influence of music in general, and par-
ticulary to that of sacred music. bringing out con-
siderations on the Oratorio, its character awl effects;
this introduced as illustration sonic fine passages
• from Meudelssohn's " St. Paul." There were many
other pieces, vocal and instrumental, selected to
illustrate different portions of the lecture, namely.
an anthem from Kent, Beethoven's " Pastoral
I Symphony," some hymns from the Salisbury Hy al.
&c. The lecturer was assisted in these pieces by his
talented children, and by some amateur friends of
the town. The lecturer concluded with SWIM notices
of the origin anti character of" National" songs, with
specimens, including the " Marsellaise,- the " Baru
des "aches," anti others. There was a large, and
we venture to affirm, a well pkwasi audience, and
Mr. Selway presented the thanks of the society.
The annual tradesmen's supper was held at the '
Crown Inn, on Friday. the 6th inst., our respected
townsman, Mr. W. H. Nlarshallsay, officiating as
chairman, and Mr. A. Hutchings, as vice. A goodly
company assembled to do justice to host Hutchings'
ample and superior preparations. On the removal
of the cloth, toasts of a loyal and patriotic descrip-
tion followed, together with variouslappropriate songs,
which 'were very ably rendered by the company.
I Conviviality and good feeling reigned the whole of
the evening, and the company separated at a
reasonable hour.

WEYMOUTH.

WEYMOUTH COUNTY PoLice, Friday.—(Before
Captain Manning and It. H. Swaffield, Esq.)—
Morin BowHa was charged with feloniously
receiving a shirt, the property of Henry Shilston,
of Weymouth. It appeared that the shirt had been
sent to a washerwoman named Allen, at Wylie, by
whom it was hung out to dry. and subsequently
missed by her. It was identified as belonging to
Shilston by the daughter, and P.C. Hitch deposed
to receiving the shirt from prisoner, who however
first gave him another. which she alleged to have
been bought from a tramp, and when he cal led again she
gave him the sec ~,,, 1 shirt. The prisoner in defence
said a tramp came to her house and wild his shirt
for sixpence, which he toi.k from his body "all hot
and dirty," and she washed it. She had at first
given the wrong shirt to the policeman by mistake.
She was committed for trial, but liberated on bail.
Boutin:II POLICE. Nionaay.-- (Before the Mayor,
J. Hancock, Esq.)— William Gardner, licensed
hawker, MRS charged with being drunk, and unable
to give a satisfactory account of himself. He came
drunk to the station on Saturday night, and wished
to have his wife locked up, but the superintendent
thinking the prisoner himself was most in need of
the operation, gave bun the benefit of a night in the
cell. Ile was lined five shillings for being drunk.
AMERICAN toNSVLATE..—MT. W. Roberts has
been appointed Weymouth Consular Agent for the
United States, and in that capacity has been enabled ,
to render assistance to a citizen of the States suffer-
ing from the effects of shipwreck. It appears that
the hanjue Potomac, of Baltimore, U.S.. Bennett
master, bound on a trading voyage to the African
coast, was run into about Night on the Ifith ult.,
by an unknown steamer, which passed on without
rendering any assistance. The Potomac sunk in
, latitude 22 N. and longitude 27 W. The &mond
mate, C. Davenport, and five others of the crew, took
, to the jolly boat, and were picked up by a Swedish
vessel named the Willielmine, and put on beard a
Scilly pilot boat, S. IS, which landed them at Lyme,
from whence the mate walked to Weymouth, and
was kindly relieved by the American Consular
Agent, Mr. Roberts, who forwarded I to South-
ampton, to the United States Consul. The Captain
and the rest of the hands on board the nitomac, got
into the long boat, when the vessel sank, and were
picked up by another vessel.
Sviierr Laues.—Some considerable damage has
lately bemi committed on the public lamps, evidently
the result of mischief or malice. The manager of gas
works, Mr. Church, hasoffered a reward of .E 5 for the
detection of the offenders, who, we trust, will thus
be brought to justice.

HEALTH AFD DISEASK

'DI.tTE PlOll CUtonneonit.—On Sunday week 1)r.
Renwick, a mediael gentleinaii in Alloa, expired while
under the induence of chloroform, administered to him at
his tarn request and solicitation, while undergoing an
. operation on one of his great toes. the nail of which he
had suffered to grew into the flesh. Dr. Renwick had
called in the assistance of Dr. Duncanson; and the
, latter, having poured souse chloroform upon a towel,
Dr. Renwick held it to his mouth with Ilia own hands.
After a little time, as it did not ',sew to be taking any
effect, he asked for more, which 1)r. Ihmeanson at tirs:
declined to give; but, by-and-bye, finding that no
, effect was tieing produced, some more was applied. As
it still secisied to have nu effect, however, another small
quantity was, at the patient's own request, applied to
the towel, which after a abort time produced
inuensi-
bihily; and his pulse having been found full and regular,
the operation, which did not occupy noire than a minute
or two. was successfully performed. He still remained
insensible, but his breathing was regular, and all was
considered right. Some cold water was then thrown in
his face to arouse him, but this not having the desired
effect other ineasures were resorted to, but with a like
unfortunate result; and when after • few minutes his
breathing became leas frequent and more laboured, and
the appearance of his countenance began to change, and
his pulse had become all but imperceptible, serious alarm
was felt. Artificial respiration by the modern method
was resorted to, and in this manner breathing was kept
up for nearly half an hour, but. melancholy to relate,
his spirit had passed away. Dr. Renwick was in his
27th year. He was a native of Ilueselburgh, and came
to Alice about sic years ap, where hi. professional skill,
eurabiacd with his urbanity of manner, pined him an
eatensive practice and the esteem of all who knew him.
It is supposed that Dr. Renwick had been labouring
seder heart disease. He has left behind him • young
wife.

CROWN COURT.—WIDNEBDAT.
(Before the Rev. H. F. Yeatmen, LL.B.)

,
The rev, and learned Chairman in his charge to
the ()rand Jury regretted that he could not speak of
the calendar as a light one, there being nearly 34)
prisoners to deal with, but he was gratified to find
that the offences were nut of an aggravated descrip-
tion. If attention were directed to the state of
crime in Is5S-59, as far as the inhabitants of Dorset
were concerned, there would be found a decrease of
crime under all the several heads. In considering
whether anything could be done in still further re-
ducing the amount of crime in this county, the
reverend Chairman went into certain statistics to
show the desirableness, in dealing with hardened
offenders, of passing upon them a more extended
period of solitary confinement; and he quoted a
report of the Ordinary of Newgate Gaol in support
of that view. Having referred to the nature of two
or three cases in the calendar, and explained the
law in relation to then., the Chairman dismissed the
Grand Jury to their chamber.
Thomas Muck (15), seaman, pleaded guilty to dealing
a pair of troweers, the property of James Hill, at Wey-
mouth on the ltith of November, 1859. Sentence
deferred.

ROBBEkT AT FiliTAßOßNl.—Javie Became (24), de-
scribed as a glover, pleaded not guilty to the charge of
stealing from the person of Thomas Pearce, of Sher-
borne, a silver watch, a silver guard chain, and • silk
pocket handkerchief, his property, at the above place,
on the 111th of October, 18.5:). A verdict of guilty w.
returned, and the prisoner was sentenced to 4 months'
imprisonment, with bard labour.

the Colonial Government, says that a very urgent and in.
creasing demand ratite throughout the colony for single
female servants, and employment could readily be
found for at least 300 monthly. The following are the
current rates of wages :—Cooks and laundresses, £3O to
05 per annum; housemaids, £25 to £3O; general
servants, 1:25 to ao ; nursemaids, 120 to ; but
really skilled and tried servants readily obtain much
higher wages. The class most in requisition are good
farm men servants, who can make themselves generally
useful, and female domestic servants of every descrip-
tion. The latter must be an increasing requirement,
from the fact of so many who yearly marry and become
themselves employers.

steady, at full pricvs, but the amount of business
doing is swim:what restricted, both for home use and

sellers are coming forward, except at fully previous

work of lir washing by using " Harper Twelvetreee

and white, too, I assure you. I merely boil them
twenty minutes, and hang them up to dry. I have never
used anything equal to it, and I have tried all sorts of
things in my time. In fact, one reason why I like
" Harper Twelvetrees' Soap Powder 'over other Washing
Powders is, because it is soft and healing to the hands,
and flukes such a fine, nice lather. Besides, I never
rub our clothes, and you know how black my Jim's

STU [MINSTER NEWTON.

VALE OF IILACK3IOItE CRICKET CLtB. - The
members of the above club have reason to be proud
of their doings during the past season, they having
carried off the laurels in every match in which they
were engaged. A very successful season was brought
to a close on Monday, the Ist October, by a match
amongst its own members, the married gentlemen
entering the field against the single. The weather
was everything that could he desired, and drew
together a large number of spectators, including a
good sprinkling of the fair sex, who, from their fre•
quent applause, appeared to take great interest in
the game. The contest was evenly maintained
throughout, so much no, that when the last wick,;
but one fell on the side of the single, they were only
a tie with the married. Mr. W. 1.. Isaac then went
in, and in ono over, scored 11, namely, four twos
and a three. This settled the matter, and the
result was hailed with no small amount of glee by the
youngsters. The party then adjourned to the Crown
Hotel, and ant down to an excellent dinner, served
up in mine host Hutchings' usual good style. The
president, It. C. Dashwood, Esq., was absent at the
commencement of the proceedings, and Mr. 'f.
Mehnoth was called to the chair, who, after the re
moval of the cloth, gave the usual loyal toasts, which
were duly responded to. The health of the secretary,
Mr. Selway ; the treasurer, Mr. Creech ; and the
committee, Messrs. Nlelnuith, Clough. and Roberts,
was proposed and responded to, also that of the pre-
sident, as well as that of R. R. Harvey, Esq., with
thanks for the use of the field. The health of the
visitors was next given, coupled with the name of
Mr. Isaac, who, in reply, said he should be always
glad to play when he came amongst them, and to
continue his subscription. Various other toasts fol-
lowed, but the usual after-dinner speeclus, toasts, ,
and songs, were very much curtailed in consequence
of the ball which was announced for 9 o'clock, and
the proceedings were quickly brought to a clime by
Mr. %V. C. Isaac proposing the health of the ladies.
who, be said, were waiting for them. An adjourn•
ment to the ball room then took place, where about
70 had assembled. The brilliant dresses of the ladies
and the film ll ill ated room ha I an excellent effect.
Among the company we noticed several members of
the leading families in the neighbourhood, and such
a pleasant reunion we have not hail the pleasure of
recording for a long time. We may pronounce the
whole affair as having passed off with considerable
erlat, reflecting great credit oo the committee of
management. The lovers of the merry dance must
have been satisfied to their hearts' content, for the
polka, quadrille,waltz,schottische,and country dance
were successively engaged in, until
" Night's esndles were burnt out, and jocund day
Stood tip-toe on the mountain tops."

TIIE (MILD MURDER AT LEA-BRIDGE.

Ou Wednewlsy butt at 3 o'clock, Mr. Humphreys,
coroner fur the eastern division of Middlesex, and the
jury resumed, at the Spread F.egle Tavern, Homerton,
the in. ueat (adjourned from evineaday week) on the
body of the child, Augustus Padfield, the suppnaed
mutlit rof which. Emma Padfield, is now in custody
charged with being concerned in its murder at a place
near GA-bridge. The prisoner was present at the
gifting of the Court on Wednesday week, lint not on
occaidon. No cause was usaigned for her absence.
Mr. George Lewis 'Mended for the jonng nan,
Frederick Bryant, whose name has been fre.tuently
mentioned in connexion with the matter; Mr. G. Vann
appeared for the prisoner, and Mr. Shorter on behalf of
the locA vestry.

The witnesses, Mary Padfield, George Allen,and Eliza-
beth Miller weie examined in succession. and repeated
imhstantially the evidence they gave on Tuesday at the
Worship-street Police-court.
Other evidence having been adduced,
1)r. Gay, senior surgeon of the Great Northern
Hospital. relAted in some detail the results of an exit-
loin:Akin he had made of the body of the deceased, and
gave it an his opinion that the child did not die of any
natural disease, but of suffocation. Referring to the
amptiltation of the left anus he said it had been taken
off about an inch below the joint; an attempt had been
made to take it off by the 'boulder. but had failed and
it appeared afterwenla to have been separated Irons the
body by fracture of the bone. The akin appeared to
have been cut with a tolerably sharp instrument, though
the edges were jagged. It was pouible. he added.
that the suffocation might have been produced by
drowning. _

The Coroner carefully summed up the evidence, and
the jury, after deliberating with closed doors about
half-an-hour, returned a verdict of" Wilful Murder"
against Emma Padfield.

The French papers hive 'published the proximate of
the great Paris Art Exhibition, to he held in 1861. The
Exhibition is to take place from the 14 of Kay to the 14
of July, and artists of all nations—painters, sculptors,

SALISSCRY.—A Concocted Bankruptcy.—Captain
Julius Roberts came up fur a second examination
at the London Bankruptcy Loud, on Tuesday,
when he was opposed on the ground that the bank-
rupt, who was an engineer and iromuaster, bait in-
structed his foreman to become petitioning creditor,
to get rid of other creditors. His hibilities were
£4,41& and there were no assets. In August last
the bankrupt obtained £2OO as a premium with a
pupil, whom be was to instruct, lodge, and board
for three years from that time. Thi, was repre-
senksl as a gross fraud, and an adjournment WAS
asked for and obtained to produce additional evi-
dence as to the bankrupt's very questionable pro.
coedings.
