TIJRKISH TROUBLES.

The Vienna Wanderer of the 16th says :

The situation of affairs in Bosnia is so serious that there
is reason to fear that • catastrophe is near at hand. The
numerous emissaries who have come from Bervia, and
brought from it the mot crordre, have so well prepared the
public mind, that on • given signal the population may
rise in • mass. It is affirmed that arms and muni-
tions are hidden in places secret and known only to some
of the initiated ; they will not be distributed until the
moment when the movement shall commence. Bosnian
Christians, who were at the head of the insurrection in 1858,
have returned to this country, singly and in disguise, and
it appears that they will direct the rising in arms which
is being prepared. The Bashi-Banzuks who have deserted
the theatre of war in tho Herzegovina are spreading most
gloomy rumours respecting the Turks. The native Ma-
homedans despair of their destiny, and are persuaded that
the end of the Turkish dominion in Bosnia is near.

The following telegram has been received at Mr.
Reuter's office from the Peninsular and Oriental
Steam Navigation Company, June 20 :

♦ TRLDISMAN CHARGE:I) WITH vicomerm ASSAULTING HIS

WM.

Benjamin Bartington, dealer in antique furniture, and
also a carver and gilder, of 58, Wardour-etreet, was
charged with violently assaulting his wife, Bra. Emma Bar-

.
tingto o.
Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared
for the defence.

Mn. Bartiogton, who gave her evidence in a state of
great trepidatlon, said—A little after 8 on Wednesday
night my husband came home very drunk and knocked at
the door. I opened it, and he then struck me in the fav
with his list, knocked me down, and then jumped on me.
I have been married to my husband II years, and he has
frequently illused me, but particularly so during the last
fortnight.
By Mr. Lewis—l was sober ; bat I have sometimes taken
something when he has ill-used me. I once before took out
a summons against him.
Prisoner—l had a summons against my wife five years
ago, but let the matter drop.
Mn. Bartiogton in answer to Mr. Lewis, said she was not
in the habit of taking things out of the house to pledge.

Mr. Lewis asked that the matter might staotiove; for a
time.

Mr. Roo' said it was too serious a matter for that. They
were obliged to have a countable to watch the house last
night.
Mr. John Goaselet, of 42, Dean-street, Soho, said
Mrs. 13artington camp to his place on Wednesday night
in • state of semi-nudity, and the prisoner fol-
lowed her, making use of the most dreadful
language. A few minutes after be (witness) heard • scream •
the prisoner struck his wife • severe blow in the stomach
with his fiat, and he then kicked at her. He (witness) on
this lost his temper, and kicked the prisoner down stairs.
The prisoner was three parts drunk, but knew what he
was about. The prisoner bad told his wife that before be
had done with her he would have her " -- heart out."
Mr. Lewis said he had no means of rebutting the evidence,
but he understood there were great faults on both sides.
She was in the habit of pledging things and drinking, but
he was aware that that was no justification for the pri-
sm? er's conduct.

Mr. L;riatlien called some witnemea for the defence,
whom evidence went to show that both prisoner and him
wife mutually drank and fought, and led a moat unhappy
mode of life.

Mr. Knox ordered the prisoner to find two bail in the
slim of 50f. each for am mouths. and in default to be
locked up, and said that, in giving that decisian, he merely
did so on the ground that if he sent the prisoner to gaol for
six months his wife would have her means of support
cut off.

THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

LATILST PAIITICULAR&-(THIS DAY.)

Notwithstanding there have been at least 500
labourers working without intermission since last Wednes-
day evening they have not yet sucoeeded in completing the
oewtrenchee for diverting the water of the Fleet Sewer, and
until this is accomplished it is not only impossible to make
any attempts to repair the damage already dose
to the railway, but from the continued torrents of water
pouring into the tunnel, there is every reason to fear further
disasters. The delay in the completion of the trenches has
mainly arisen from the dangerous nature of the work owing
to the looseness of the soil and the depths the men are ob-
liged to excavate. After the trenches had been excavated
it was found necessary to board up the sides and bed
throughout, to prevent, as far u possible, the leakage of
the water into the surrounding houses. Underneath the
boarding has been placed layers of straw and every possible
precaution has been used. Along the whole length of the
trench transverse beams have been placed to strengthen
the work. This has occupied a much longer time
than it was at first thought. It was expected yesterday
that the trench would have been ready for the reception of
the water this morning, but it will be at least late this
evening before that is the use. The engineers intend
at 4 o'clock this afternoon to enter and explore
the Fleet sewers, as far as it is possible to
do so, to ascertain the exact state of the works.
Several photographerilwere busy at work this morning on
the ruins taking views of the wreck. The whole place is very
dangerous, slips of earth and brickwork are taking place every
few minutes where least expected, and every person but those
actually engaged is kept away from the place. The high tide
again this morning has filled up the tunnel with water,
doing a considerable amount of damage ; and although the
pumping engines are ready for use it is useless bringing
them into operation until the trench is ready.

SPECIE AND COTTON FROM THE CON-
FEDERATE STATES.

(raox ova owa COBILISPONDENT.)
LIVERPOOL, Ins 19.
At a late hour last evening the steam ship E.
Hawkins arrived in the Morse), from Havannah,
arc. This vessel brings in specie 433,000 dollars,
and 1,627 bales of cotton on freight. The E.
Hawkins, we understand, although hailing from
Havannah, comes really from Matamorsa, a port
on the banks of the Rio Grande del Norte.
It is generally believed here that the specie
brought by this vessel is comprised of shipments
made by wealthy Southerners who may be desirous
of saving what property they have from the recent
Confiscation Act of the United States Senate.
This supposition, at least, is strikingly in accord-
ance with the tenour of the recent news from the
Southern States.

CIVIC BANQUET TO THE BISHOPS.

Yesterday evening a banquet was given by the
Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress, at the Mfansion•hoos,
to the Bishops. Among this company were :—The Bishop
of London and Mrs. Tait, the Bishop of Oxford and Kiss
Wilberforce, the Bishop of Liandaff and Mrs. 011ivant,
Bishop of Lincoln and Mrs. Jackson, Bishop of Bath and
Wells and Lady Auckland, Bishop of Ripon sad His.

Ontario, Bishop of Honolulu, Dean of St. Paul's and Mrs.
Milman, Dean of Westminster and Mrs. Trench, Archdeacon
, and Mrs. Hale, Archdeacon and Mrs. Utterton, Rev. Canon
I and Mies Doi& . . .

After the customary touts had been disposed of,
The LORD Maros proposed " Preeperity to the Society
for the propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts," and in
the course of his remarks observed that the society had an
in...rovne of about 80,0001., and supported 400 missionaries,
and that the number of oolonial bishops was now aug-
mented to upwards of 40.
The Bishop of LONDON, in responding, observed that
although the society had existed for 200 years it was still
working vigorously, and there bad never been a period
when its agency was so much required. When the society
was first established England bad but few colonies, or plan-
tations as they were then called. Now she had depen-
dencies all over the world, and wherever the English name
was known the church of England was anxious to send the

The LORD MAYOR proposed "The Bench of Bishops."
and expressed his deep gratification at finding the church
represented by about twenty prelates.
The Bishop of LicenzLn in responding said he was old
enough to remember • time when the bishops were set
down as an kilo body of men, but no onecould now apply to
them such language. Every one must now admit that they
belonged, in one sense, to the working claws. (Cheers.)
Among the remaining toasts was that of " The Clergy,"
coupled with the name of the Bishop of Bangor, who
preached that day for the Propagation Society at Bt.

The Bishop of BAlocioß briefly returned thanks.
Among the remaining toasta were "The Lord Mayor,"
proposed by the Bishop of Oxford ; " The Colonial Bishops,"
acknowledged bhe Bishop of Sydney ; "The House of
Lords" and "The House of Commons;' "The lady
Mayoress " "The Magistrates of the City;' and "The
Sheriffs."

The sale of the Earl of Pembroke's stud took
place in Paris on Sunday lea. Great curiosity was excited, ;
as much by the beauty of the hones as by the luxuriant ;
arrangements of the stalls and the addling department. r
The bonne are now distributed amongst the first stables of
the land; and, as the Sport observes, " nothiog remains of
one of the most remarkable studs that adorned the city of
Paris but the remembrance of the noble and opulent
stranger who formed it." The following is the list of
horses sold, their prase, and their purchasers :—Abeille
and Papilluo, the pair, were sold for 15,000(r. to ?Arne. de

child ; Zonave, 7,6001 r., to M. Fouget Leroaitre ; Grass-
hopper, 3,200 fr., to General Fleury ; and Pigeon and

Whilst Paris receives just now an unusual suc-
°maim of strangers, the natives are on the wing and !ann.
Vichy this year is expected to be crowded, as the Emperor
goes to that great thermal capital of France next month.
The French, too, are particularly fond of the " mineral
waters" of Homburg and Baden-Baden. The medicinal
beverages of those places, coupled with the refreshing
green of certain attractive tables to be found in the casinos,
have the combined effect generally of relieving them
in the fullest sense of the word. Both Homburg
and Baden-Baden this year put forth their usual programmes
—concerts, dancing, flirting, driving, and r—e et n—r f M.
Benazet, the king of Baden-Baden, has built a new theatre,
which is to be opened this season with " alumina." Ems
is to be well filled, and there the famous musical comedy
writer, Offenbach, presides. Aix-la-Chapelle and Spa are
inviting visitors ; sad, finally, Monaco—the principality of
Monaco, with its army of 25 eoldiers, and kingdom of 50
priests—asks the water-drinking, and bathing, and dancing
world to go there sod be happy.
A new paper called the Kaffrarian Post, pub-
lished in English and German, has bees started in Kies
William's Town, at the Cape of Good Hope.
A curious circumstance connected with the Pope's
allocution is mentioned by the Dilate. It says :—" Sin-
gular phenomenon, and well worthy of the times in which
we live! It is in the book of a protesteat that the Pops
seems to have drawn the nateri►ls for his peetikal Issesava.

BIRICTRHIAD, FLINT/SHINN AND HOLYHIAD
RAILWAY AND IRS PSOPOWED INUDGI °VIII TES RMIZ
DM—This company propose to carry their line anon the
River Dee six miles below Chester, by a bridge of nine
spans of 60 feet each and 10 feet headway, one of the apses
to be an opening one. The plans for the purpose have been
under the consideration of the Lords of the Admiralty, who
report to parliament that traffic on the Dee at the point of
crossing is very considerable in seagoing vessels, some of
3,000 tons berthen, and breadth of beam of 75 feet, and
which could not be got to sea with such a bridge across the
river, so that there rose be no doubt as to the crossing at the
site intended being injurious to the navigation, and they
suggest that as a junction with the Birkenhead Railway
from the south side of the Dee exists six miles higher up
the river at Chester, it may be questionable whether there
is any necessity for theline now proposed, but that if r,
they will require that the bridge be built with two opening
spans of 00 feet each on the swivel principle, or one opening
span of 100 feet, with headings of 15 feet above high water
of ordinary spring tides.
Nouwicil AND SPALDING RAILWAY.—The Admiralty
report that they can only assent to the proposal of this cam.
pang to cross the River Nene, at Wisbassch, by • bridge of
three arches, the aeons 60 feet span, and the others 30 feet,
on condition that at any time required proper opening spans
shall be provided. The lino will likewise cross the Great
South Holland and North Level Main Drains by means of
two three.arched bridges of 30 end 40 fest span respectively.
