of Mr. Buckatone, of the Haymarket, and
when the young lady, instead of laying it
on the table, ascended the dais and put it in
the Prince's own hand, his Royal Highness
received it very graciously and good humour-

vigour. The second contributor was Mrs. Alfred
Mellon, and the third, • lady whose name we
could not learn. After the presentation of the
purses the concert was opened by Miss Louisa
Pyne, with • recitative and air from Latium. The
second singer was Madame Oriel, and the manlier
in which the great prima donna gave one of her
famous songs from the Pariatti perfectly electrified
the audience. Old frequenters of the opera said it
WAS worthy of the best days of the actrem, but
this much is certain, that there are few at present
on the lyric stage who could have given it with
equal fire and expression. His Royal Highness
having listened to the two ladies most attentively,
and liberally applauded both, left the ball, and
very soon after returned by special train to town.
Notwithstanding the pressure of the holiday traffic
the railway arrangements were carried out in the
most satisfactory manner.

•T

the deed has been completed to Induce juries to
act upon evidence, however cogent. They natu-
rally feel that, unless some trustworthy lefties
has actually been present, or unless some
fact which is inconsistent with innocence
1 has been proved, the responsibility of pro-
' ntuounbceingtuus verdict
urred. Buotf
when the
thise victim stillserisss
survives, and when the question which re-
mains to be determined is • question of intention,
the responsibility becomes still more grievous.
There are some cases, no doubt, in which the in-
tention is tolerably obvious ; if, for instance, a
man, after declaring that he intended to blow up •
house, were found with a lighted match in one of
the cellars close to a barrel of gunpowder white of
had secretly placed there, his intention would pro-
bably be admitted. But if a lad, under " the
" pangs of despised love," were suddenly to
attack the woman who had jilted him with a
razor which in the heat of passion he had
taken from his pocket, there are few jurymen who
would pronounce that murder was intended, if the
result of such • verdict would be an execution. In
such a case it is just possible that the distracted
lover might have no definite intention whatever. It
is certain that, unless the intention were made clear
beyond a doubt, no juryman would feel bound to
pronounce a verdict of guilty. But let the penalty
be reduced from death to penal servitude, and to
the juryman the case assumes a new aspect. He
has no fear that even if he should be mistaken his
mistake will be irretrievable. When the criminal
is executed there is no room for repentance. The
decree is final. Under the milder code • jury-
man has no difficulty in applying his judg-
ment without fear of consequences. It is one
thing to pronounce • judgment which may be over-
ruled; it is another to prouounoe a judgment which
cannot be set aside. But even if the old law had
continued, and if the jury had brought in a ver-
dict of guilty, their courage would have availed'
nothing, for the HOME Becusizav must have inter-
fered. Unless, therefore, the penalty attached to
attempts at murder had been modified, it is not
improbable that the wretched man MURFH Y, instead
of having to auger for his uncontrolled passion,
might have escaped altogether. There is, indeed,
another alternative : he might have been punished,
but the sympathy excited in his behalf, as •
criminal condemned to death, would have done
more injury to the administration of justice than if
he had escaped scot free. It is better policy to in-
flict a lighter punishment with the sanction of
public opinion than to attempt to inflict • heavier
I punishment, and to fail in the attempt.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

TH2 ALM=
ort THAVDS ON TH I BH/KINGHANI DANK.
After our rep left yesterday,
The Common Serjeant rammed up the evidence, and the
jury retired at a quarter-past 4 o'clock to deliberate, and
after as absence of a quarter of an hour, returned a radio,
of Guilty against both the prisoners.
The prisoner Kelly made an appeal to the cowl for its
merciful consideration, on the ground that since his incar-
ceration he had not only lost his father, but bad suffered
from two paralytic attacks. He melded that in what he
had done he had not the most remote intention of commit-
any fraud.
Mr. F. H. Kelly stated that it was righ t he should inform
the oonrt that moos the papers found at Taylor's house
were numerous letters Warmed to him by manufacturers
in all parts of the country,to whom radon for goods had
been nut by the 6rm of Reeves and Co.
Hr. Montagu Williams said that though this was true,
not one of the letters of reference bud been answered by the
prisoner Taylor.
The Common Serjeant, in passing peptones, observed that
he entirely concurred in the verdict of the jury, and he
must state that bad the same evidence been adduced before
him in *a indictments for forgery, he would have felt it his
duty to pars upon both a sentence of penal servitude. As it
was be mild not but teal that the forfeiture of their status
and position by the prisoners was a far greater punishment
than any he could allot to them, and under that feeling the
sentence was that they be seaway impriposed mad kept to
hard labour in the House of Correction fox 18 oalsodar
months.
The prisoners were then removed.

fended the Owner.
upererdi of three hours,
The trial in this ease occupied
but the facts were comprised in • vary small compels. The
prisoner, who had the appearance of • very respectable
maa, bad the management of rime commercial works at
Old Ford, and being indebted to tradesmen in small
a mounts, in each ease the primmer presented the person to
whom he was Indebted with • cheque oa • bookie'
for • certain sum in payment, reosiving the Wens"
In cash. These cheques in due mane were passed through
bankers, wad in • few day's' tames* they worsen returned
endorsed with the words "no acooent." It turned out,
however, that se regarded two of the banks the prisoner
bad had aocesuits with them, but they had been closed
four or five months before these cheques were issued.
Mr. Bailey addressed the jury at considerable length on
behalf of the prisoner, repudiating altogether Ore supposi-
tion that be could be classed under the generic term of
" • swindler," as it was peeved that be had opened amounts
with two of the beakers upon whom be had drawn these
cheques ; and in the absence of notices from the banks, it
was quite possible that he was unaware that he had over-
drawn his accounts, and no pass book had been produced.
It was most unfair to the prisoner that charges should be
accumulated in order to make out what in itself was • very
weak case, for no other purpose than prejudicing the jury.
The jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict of
Oni/Sy.
The Aesistant Judge serateoced the prisoner to be impri.
eooed and kept to hard labour for two years.

CHINA.

Oar Hong Kong advices are to the 13th June.
The Chula Mail says that the lisping rebellion
seems to be now entirely suppressed, but the North
China Herald, in the meantime, gives news of
further political troubles.
Hankow, we are informed, is still menaced by
" braves " who have revolted from the imperial
government on a question of pay. The Mail says :
" It is clear that there will never be an end to
tumult and insurrection in China so long as the
present mandarins hold office. This is somewhat
serious (it adds), for, if we are to spend a century
or two in putting down Chinese rebellions, the task
will be somewhat arduous. There is an impression
at present gaining ground that we ought to let the
Chinese do their own work and fight their own
battles. This will be matter for air R Alcock's
consideration. Not only at Hankow, but at
Kiukiang, have premonitory symptoms of a fresh
rebellion been exhibited. There seems, however,
to be no decided desire among any of the parties
to molest Europeans."
In connexion with the above it may be noticed
that we still continue to instruct the Chinese in the
use of arms, and in the manufacture of ammuni-
tion of all kinds.
From Japan the news by the present mail is
unimportant.

AMERICA.

Our advice. from New York are to the 25th I
ultimo.
Provisional Governor Lewis B. Parsons, of Ala-
bama, has issued his proclamation announcing the
inauguration of measures for the restoration of
civil government iu that State. The 31st August
is the day appointed for the election of delegates
to the State Convention, which is to assemble on
the 10th September. The greater portion of the
county and town officers who, under the rebel regime,
were officiating on the 22nd May last, when rebel
authority ceased, are re-appointed to the positions,
which they are to bold during the continuance of the
provisional government ; but they are all required
to take the oath of allegiance to the national go-
vernment and to give new bonds for the performance
of their duties. The governor comments on the
present condition of the South, and the ruin and
suffering which the war has caused, but informs
the people that notwithstanding this they have to-
day every political right which they possessed before
the war, excepting the right to hold slaves ; and
slavery, he tells them, is irrecoverably gone, and it
is the part of wisdom to make the best they can of
the new order of things.
In the United States district court of New Or-
leans, proceedings were recently taken for the con-
fiscation of Mr. lilidell's estate in that city. A claim
on it of 290,000 francs was put in by the Paris

TliE SLYSWIG-HOLSTZIN QII&STION.
HARLIN, loom 6.

It is stated ow reliable authority that the opinion
delivered by the crown lawyers upon the succession
question in the Duchies contains the following
conclusions:
•

1. The Duke of Augustenburg has no right of
succession to the whole or part of the Duchies, not
only because his father renounced his rights of suc-
cession, and besides previously recognised all
arrangements to be made relative to the order of
succession, but also because succession by primo-
geniture cannot be shown to exist in the house of
Augustenburg.
2. The claims of the Grand Duke of Oldenburg
are only valid with referenoe to the Oottorp por-
tion of the Duchies in virtue of eventual rever-
sionary rights.
3. The rights of Bing Christian IL, recognised
by the law of succession of 31st July, 1863, having
been published sad duly introduced in the Duchies,
his Majesty's rights of succession must be con-
sidered as legally established, and these have been
transferred by the treaty of Vienna to Prussia and
Austria.

Sim* hue army left the Crimes, the occasions
when even individual French officers have had
opportunities of seeing British troops coder arms
have been few and far between. Afehttgat our
guests now at Portsmouth there are probably not
• few who were present in the Crimea. They
will see • very marked change in the clothing and
accoutrements of our men since the years 1854-55.
The tail coat of those days has given way to
the tunic ; the tawdry white lace has disappeared ;1
the cross belts are abolished ; the high shako has
been replaced by • low, well fitting headdress ;1
the stook is reformed, if not altogether thrown
away ; and, above all, old Brown Bess is dead,
'and her successor is the Enfield rifle. All
these changes are in the direction of use-
'fulness. The day when • military cap
ciir coat was selected because it " looked
" well" has passed away, and the present test by
I which dress and arms are now judged is whether
or not the article will improve the soldier's com-
fort or increase his ease when on duty. Nor
should it be forgotten that to the Crimean cam-
paign the British Infantry is indebted for the right
of wearing a moustache, formerly most unaccount.
ably forbidden to all dismounted troops. In short,i
we have no reason to be ashamed of the improve-
ments that have taken place in our army during
the last ten years. That much remains to be done
is true, still it is impossible not to allow that
something has been already accomplished in the
way of making our army efficient since we took
the field with our neighbours for allies and cora-
-1 rade,. Will our French guests perooive these
alterations? Undoubtedly they will. Just as
era/ Englishman, no matter what his profes-
sion, calling, trade, or occupation, takes an
interest in, and understands more or Ism of,
all connected with horses, so every Frenchman
is a born soldier. France may have—we have
seen within the last few days that she has—
an excellent navy ; the members of her bar are in
general patterns of eloquence ; the clergy of her
Inational church are mostly hard-working and
I zealous ; her merchants are often enterprising
traders, and her manufacturers are treading
very closely in our own footsteps. But those
sailors, those advocates, those priests, those men
I of business, are all and every one soldiers at heart,
I and can, more than any other people, appreciate
I the quality of soldiers who are fit for their in-
I tended work. Amongst the many sights offered
Ito our guests during the present week, the review
on Southsea-common to-morrow will not be the
least interesting to them; and it may be confidently
hoped that they will leave England with a good
impression of the troop* now forming the Ports-
mouth garrison.
