THE POLICE COURTS.
(THIS DAY.)

MANSION-HOI7SE.
BURGLARY IN THE CITY.

Aaron Canino., a youth of 18, was charged before the
Lord Mayor with a burglary.
John Wishart, a police-constable, 21 H, was the prin-
cipal witness. lie was on duty this morning in Petti-
coat-lane, and shortly before 2 o'clock he saw
the prisoner with a livery great coat on and ma-
eying a number of other coats on his arm. On
seeing him the prisoner said to two of his
companions, " Look out," and then ran away, drop-
ping as lie so all the coats he had curled on his arm.
Witness followed him, upon which the prisoner, upon
whom he was gaining, threw off the livery coat he was
wearing, and dropping that also, continued to run. His
two companions had each a number of coats over their
arms, and those they threw away. Witness stopped, picked
up teu coats, but as he did so the two other men escaped.
He sprang his rattle, and the prisoner was caught by another
constable named Lewis in the neighbourhood. Witnesa
saw the prisoner in about ten minutes afterwards at the
station, and then went to Harrow-alley, where he found
a clothier's shop had been forcibly entered, and
the place in great disorder. The prisoner afterwards told
the witness that it did not take much trouble to break
in the door, and that be intended to keep the livery coat
for his own use if he hail got clear off with it.
Hr. Myers, a general dealer, identified the coats, which
he said hail been stolen from his shop, and were worth 8/.
or 8/. in all.

The Lord Mayor remanded the prisoner until Friday.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, MARCH r..

The Nordeleutsche ZeihiLy of to-day, approving
certain statements in the New Free Praia of
Vienna, relative to the position of Austria towards
Prussia, says :—" Austria will not be able to find a
more faithful ally than Prussia, if she would enter
without reservation into a close union with us, and
promote the national development of Germany.
Let us hope that our friendship will grow the
closer and stronger the more it is understood how
important for the preservation of peace in Europe
are friendly relations between Austria and
Prussia."

A parliamentary banquet was given to-day, in
celebration of the King's birthday. Members of
all the political parties in the North German Par-
liament were present. The health of the King was
proposed by Herr Simeon, who in his speech
dwelt especially upon the mission of the Hohen-
zollerns, which was, he said, to create one people
and one State out of the different German races.
,Congratulatory telegrams have been received
to-day by the King of Prussia from nearly all the
European courts, including those of Paris and
St. Petersburg.
It is said that at the birthday reception at the
Royal Palace to-day the King addressed both to the

EXTRAORDINARY CARR.—A singular charge of con-
cealment of birth—in which the prisoner was a married
man, and the child, whose body he was accused of making
away with, was his own wife's—was heard before Mr. Jus-
tice Blackburn at the Shrewsbury Assizes yesterday. The
prisoner, whose name was Taylor, was a respectable man,
hying at Oswestry, and occupying the position of gardener
in the service of one of the members of parliament for the
county. It appeared from the evidence that Mrs. Taylor's
condition had been noticed by the neighbours in January
last, and that the prisoner had at the time incidentally
mentioned to one of the witnesses that his wife was preg-
nant. In February it was observed that Mrs. Taylor no
longer had the appearance of pregnancy, and all kinds of
rumours became current respecting the disposal of the
child. At first both the prisoner and his wife persistently
denied that any birth bad taken place, but when the
ppoolice took the matter up Taylor, after a little fencing,
declared his readiness to tell all, and, taking the officer
into the garden. Aowe I him the place where he said he
had buried the body. On digging to the depth of two or
three feet the body of a full-grown child was discovered,
wrapped up M an old dries. The medical testimony proved
that the child had never breathed, and hi. lonhhip, in
his summing up—while commenting upon the extraordi-
nary nature of the charge, the like of which, he said, he
had never met with in the course of his experience, either
at the bar or on the bench, dwelt favourably upon the fact
that the prisoner had, a month previous to hie wife's con-
finement. openly referred to her pregnancy. The jury ac-
quitted the prisoner.

OUR CONTEMPORARIES.

(THIS DAY.)

The Daily News, Rerald, T,legraph, and 'far
have further remarks upon the Reform Bill. The Ikratd
says the government would resign rather than be forced
to carry through parliament a measure so denuded of safe-
guards as to assume the form of a household suffrage biU.
Mr. Childers' speech on the navy estimates, Mr. Stuart
Mill's proposition for female suffrage, the reward to be
given to the Irish constabulary, and the embarrass-
ments of railway companies, constitute the subjects
discussed in the Tines. The police are highly extolled
for their bravery and fidelity, and the propriety of putting
their barracks in a better state of defence is urged. Mr.
Childers' evidence is estimated highly on account of
the fact that he is an Admiralty man. His proposal the
Times takes to be, when simply stated, that our naval
forces are too diffused, and that by a safe and easy rate of
contribution from our distant stations we can make up
nearer home, and ready for universal use, the finest fleet
actually on the sea. With the champions of woman's
rights the Times joins issue on all their main positions,
and goes so far as to expound as a social law, deeper than
any political laws, the fact that human society is built
upon the political and intellectual superiority of men to
women.

The Poet regards the prospect of affairs on the Continent
as serious. If it be asked, will France acquiesce in the
change which Prussia is effecting? Prussia will reply that
she must acquiesce ; and ti,is will explain the publication
of the treaties with the southern powers. I■ the logic of
accomplished facts so conclusive as to carry conviction to
the minds of Napoleon 111. and his advisers? The events
of the present year will supply the answer to this quell
tion. For the present it must be admitted that the
chances seem in favour of the realisation of Prussia's
wildest hopes.

The claims of Mr. Robert Young to his pension, which
were the subject of parliamentary discussion last night,
are referred to by the Daily litres and Star. The sham
benevolence which led the memorialists to recommend this
person, who has devoted his very ordinary gifts of metrical
composition to the promotion of the worst religious and
political passions is, mays the Daily Nese*, real jobbery,
and deserves the severest reprobation. Mr. Disraeli's
speech last night, and Lord Derby's promised action
will do something, we trust, to put an end to it in
future. But so long as we have confiding premiers, per-
sons ready to abuse their confidence will not be wanting.
If these gentlemen bad read Mr. Young's works before
signing the petition in his favour, they must have known
that they were recommending an improper person ; in
recommending him without hm:ng read his works, they
must have known that they were doing an improper act.
The Daily News has also an article on the King of
Italy's speech on the opening of the new parliament
which it describes as having the negative merit of
brevity and the positive merit of a large and frank
►ppreciation of the position of the kingdom.

THE RECTORSHIP OP ABERDEEn UNIVERSITY.—
ARRRDEEN, Fatmtr.—The installation of Mr. Grant Duff,
M.P., am Lord Rector of the University of Aberdeen, took
place to-day in the Music-hall. Mr. Grant Duff was ac-
companied to the platform by Principal Campbell, the
professors of the university, Sheriff Thomson, and the ma-
gistrate* and the members of the town council. The
audience, including the students, numbered about 2,000,
Mr. Duff spoke for an hour and a half. The address was
well received, and at the close three hearty cheers were,
on the call of the Principal, given in honour of the new
rector.

" There is a kind of humour not uncommon
here," writes the New York correspondent of the Spectator,
" which prepares a trap into which a victim is suddenly
precipitated. It is merely a variety of what you and we, in
slang, both call ' a sell' One of our stump speakers some
years ago, at a meeing where it was a great point to con-
ciliate the Irish vote, was led by his love of a good thing to
peril his party and himself. He had been handling the
Native American party very roughly (in earnest) and then
went on. ' Who dig all our canals ? Irishmen. (Ap-
plause.) Who built our railroads? Irishmen. (Great
applause.) Who build all our gaols' Irishmen. (Tumul-
tuous applause.) Wbofin all our gaols! Irishmen.' The
descent into the trap was so sudden that the speaker
escaped by precipitate flight before the rush at the
staging."

POLITICAL TOPICS.

Great as is the position which Mr. Lowe by his speech
of last year has made for himself, it does not, the Daily
News remarks, quite satisfy him ; and an irrepressible dis-
content breaks out on all occasions, though what he wants
is not very clear. He now professes to be surprised that
his speech has been interpreted as an indictment against
the working classes---surprised at its distinguishing feature
—surprised at that which brought down the cheer@ of the
torice. He now condescends to cut up his great speech
into scrape, and argue that inasmuch as the objectionable
meaning is not in this sentence, nor the next, nor in the
one following, and these make up the whole paragraph
complained of, therefore it is not there at all.
Mr. Lowe 's argument in the speech is direct, compact,
and, above all, intelligible. " We know," he says, " those
who are out by our experience of those who are in. They
must be kept out because they have the same qualities."
It is truly amazing, not to use a stronger word, that Mr.
Lowe, having employed this argument in the House of
Commons, should now stoop to pretend that he
was speaking only of the constituencies. The
Times classes Mr. Lowe's accusations with the
idle and unmeaning railing in which foolish
people indulge, and doubtless those who are now
unrepresented will in time acquire, with other accom-
plishments, the parliamentary and non-natural use of lan-
guage. Until then, everyone who deliberately seta himself
to slander them must expect to be understood to mean
what he says.

Discussing the speeches at the Canada Club, the Times
points out the growth of colonial power until the
practical independence of the Canada, has become est►-
blished and inviolable. It then shows the onerous conditions
to us under which the imperial connexion is maintained.
In any possible oonllict with their neighbour they will be

THE EASTERN QUESTION-RI7SSIAN
PROPOSITIONS.

We find the following in the A rot ie Notimod of
to-day :
The cabinet of St. Petersburg has addressed • circular
note to the government on the Eastern question, which
contains the following propositions:—The independence
of Montenegro and the Bauman Provinces—the inde-
pendence of Egypt—the annexation of Thessaly and
Epirus to Greece—the separation of the Isles
from Turkey and their annexation to Greece or
independent existence—Bosnia and Herzegovina to be
erected into a kingdom under an Austrian Archduke—the
independence of Servia--Bulgari► to be recognised as
an independent Principality under a Russian Prince,
and lastly, the European possessions of Turkey to be
limited to Roumelia and Albania—total remodelling.
France to reply in a few days.
The Liberte has the following :

It would be vain to deny what is being plotted in secret
—the division of the Ottoman Empire between Russia and
England—both of them the cordial allies of Prussia, their
not disinterested instrument. England is to have
Egypt; Prussia the whole of Germany ; Russia
to have Turkey, from which, however, would be cut
out a kingdom of Greece of a suitable size for King
George, the brother-in-law of the Prince of Wales, the
heir apparent to the English throne, and brother-
in-law also to the presumptive heir to the throne
of Muscovy, and therefore the bond of union
between Russia and England. Turkey, who begins
to suspect the fate that awaits her, is making her
arrangements. Rut where is the money to pay the fresh
troops she is going to arm ? This state of things explains
the haughty attitude of Italy towards Turkey. Italy Is
playing her card.
London, England, 1867-01-11

SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

From South Australia we learn that his Excel-
lency Sir Dominic Daly has addressed circular
letters to the governments of Victoria, New South
Wales, and South Australia, submitting for their
several considerations "whether it would not be
desirable now to adopt a uniform tariff, at all
events for the Riverine and coasting trades, as the
tariffs of Victoria, New South Wales, and South
Australia are already in many respects so similar
the one to the other." The revenue for the past
quarter shows a decrease, as compared with the
corresponding quarter of last year, of 2,000/. ; and
the expenditure an increase of 123,0001.
The hay harvest was nearly over in South
Australia. The wheat crops looked magnificent. The
Register has collected opinions from all parts of
the colony as to the state of the crops, from which
it seems practically certain that there will be from
110,000 to 120,000 tons of breadstuffs for export.
The question of shipping wheat to England was
being seriously discussed, and if the English market
should keep up would be tried. One firm had re-
ceived 20,0001. from England for the purchase of
wheat.

The House of Assembly at Adelaide has passed
a resolution to add 1,000/. to the Governor's salary.
A motion has been discussed in the Assembly for
stopping immigration during the next six months
on account of there being some amount of surplus
labour in the colony. It was, however, withdrawn
on the government stating that no ship was at pre-
sent ordered except the one about to arrive, and
that they intended to push on public works before
fresh immigrants were sent for.

THE SEARCH OP PASSENGERS' LUGGAGE.

The following memorial, signed by a large
number of members of both bounce of parliament, bee
been presented to the Right Hon. Benjamin Disraeli,
111. P., Chancellor of the Exchequer:
"Sort—We beg to urge upon your consideration the
desirability of substituting Custom-house
through detective or other officers for the practice of
individual and personal search of baggage at the ports and
in Loudon, in the case of travellers by railway bets
London and Paris for the seven mouths of the Greet
International Exhibition of 1867.

"The concession suggested involves the comfort and
convenience of several hundred thousands of her Majesty's
subjects and of Americans and other travellers from
abroad passing through England on the interesting occa
sion offered by the Emperor for the assembly of people of
all nations at Paris. It cannot materially affect the re-
venue or prejudice the future practice of the Custom.
house, as the concession is to meet an exceptional case, in
which the duty of oo.opersting to make the Exhibition in
every sense a success must be admitted by her Majility's
government.
" It is understood that the government of the Emperor,
placed under far greater difficulty than our own from the
fact of their much larger number and heavier scale of cue
toms' duties, will materially modify their system of wank
during the Exhibition, and are also ready to discuss the
whole question with you on the principle of recipremi
action ; and we cannot doubt that you, on equally en.
lightened views, will sympathise with our object, and be
led to deal with, any technical or departmental difficulties
which may present themselves." •

that Sir John Lawrence took one atep while absent
from his capital, which has secured for him the un-
qualified approval of the Indian public. Sir Cecil
Beadon lately appointed a special commissioner to the
famine-stricken provinces of Bengal, for the pur-
pose of instituting an inquiry into the causes and
consequences of the dreadful calamity and thereon
founding the report which was demanded by Lord
Cranborno, for submission to Parliament
early next year. The Governor-General has
superseded this by nominating an inde_
pendent commission, of which it is said that Mr.
Campbell, a Judge of the High Court, and Colonel
Morton, of the Engineers, are to be members, aaso-
ciated with Mr. Dampier, the Lieutenant-Gover-
nor's sole nominee. " From that body, of course,
a full and impartial statement of facts may be con-
fidently anticipated, and unless Sir Cecil Beadon
has been most grievously belied, it is likely to re-
present his conduct in a very bad light." The
Athenteum adds :

How far the Viceroy may find himself entangled in the
same net, remains to be seen. His prompt and resolute
action on finding that the Secretary of State was deter-
mined to have the tragical business probed to the
bottom, certainly looks like unconsciousness of being
implicated in any fault, but then appearances
are against him too, and especially the feet
of his never having thought requisite the strict inquiry
now about to take place until Lord Cranborne called for
it. The commierion will h►ve a very invidious as well as
most painful duty to perform, since the conduct of such
high functionaries as the Viceroy and Lieutenant. G-
overnor must par under review, in the course of their in-
vestigation of the famine.

SPAIN.

The state of things in Spain remains without
change. Arrests continue to be made, and per-
sons who fear arrest are flying the country.
The ex-deputy Alvareda, who was last year
the Spanish minister in Holland, has been exiled to
Teruel. On the 3rd of January an aide-de-camp
of the captain-general came to tho house of Senor
Francos, a retired colonel and deputy, to arrest
him. Madam Francos said that her husband had
gone out. " Very well," said the officer, " I shall
remain till he returns," and he remained in the
house for twenty-two hours. In the evening of the
following day Madame Francos came to the officer
and said, " I think it will be useless for you to
remain here any longer, as I have received a
telegram from Bayonne stating that her husband
arrived there quite well. He was gone two hours
and a half before you came yesterday." Senor Ramon
Goicoerrotea, formerly Director-General of Tele-
graphs, presented himself to the captain-general,
stating that he had put his signature to the ad-
dress to the Queen. " Very good," said the
captain-general, " you shall be sent now to the
military prison of San Francisco, but to-morrow
you shall be transferred to the civil prison of Sala-
dem, for I have a file of papers which shows a con-
siderable deficit in the receipts of the telegraph
department at the time when you were at the head
of it."

There are a vast number of clandestine publi-
cations about, addressed by the "Revolutionary
Junta of Madrid" to the people, the army, and
clergy. One of these is directed against the
Queen especially, and it concludes with these
words " Abajo los Borbones ! Viva la Soberania
nacional !" (Down with the Bourbons ! Long
live the sovereignty of the people.)

TZIS LATE GALE:.

SOUTHA3IPTON,
The barometer .r.tt, up ti.lu to-day. There is a perfect
calm here ; the wind has gone round to the north, and
there are symptoms of hard dry weather. The Channel
Islands mail ste —er of Monday, which could not leave
hese before Tuesday morning, did not get to Jersey before
yesterday at noon ; and instead of leaving Jersey for Eng-
land yesterday morning, she could not do so before this
morning. The Hantbutg steamer Dentcldand, from New
York, was obliged to get to Cowes by the east end of the
island last night. She had experienced snow, and the ba-
rometer kept very low on board. The Germania, which
ought to have left this port for New York yesterday,
did not get here front Hamburg before this forenoon.
The Ceylon arrived here to-day with the India mail. She
experienced frightful weather since she left Gibraltar.
In the Bay of Biscay she rolled her lifeboats almost under
water. She met the outward India steamer China in
the Bay at four p.m. on the sth, more than four days out
from Southampton. The China had fearful bead winds,
and ahecould scarcely reach Gibraltar under eight days
from EngLuad.

CHARGE Or CHILD MUHII/LR.

In the ease of Charlotte &tag, after our report left yes-
terday,
Mr. Cant. one of the surgeons of the Free Hospital.
Grey's-inn-road, was called, and proved that, having heard
the evidence of Mr. Hook, he was of opinion that the
death bad not arisen from suffocation by drowning.
Mr. Justice Shea carefully summed up the evidence,
and the jury, after half an hour's deliberation, returned a
verdict of Not Guilty.
The prisoner was ordered to be discharged.

CHINA AND JAPAN.

Hong Kong advices narrate some painful facts in
connection with the coolie trade. The Avon, from
Macao to Havana, with over 500 coolies on board,
came into Hong Kong waters and was seized by the
naval authorities, on the ground of having no
papers on board. On investigation at Macao it
was found that there were many children
on board who had been kidnapped. The case
has created much excitement. Some kid-
nappers engaged in collecting coolies under the
authorisation of an agent to a company have
just been sentenced to twelve months' im-
prisonment.
It is reported that the French have been
beaten off at Kanghoa, in the Corea, with a
loss of forty-five men. One gunboat got ashore
in the river, owing to the tremendous fall of
the tide, which is stated at about 42 feet ; she was
for some time left 30 feet out of water on a fiat
rock. Fortunately she was eventually got off.
The French admiral, in the Laplace, and the re-
mainder of the squadron, consisting of the Oiler-
riere, Kinshan, and others, had gone to Yokohama.
The news from Japan is not very important.
The new Tycoon, who is favourably disposed
towards foreigners, is energetically going into
public business, and preparing for a meeting of
Daimios having territorial rights. Hostilities are
still suspended, and permanent peace is probable.
The Japanese Ambassador to Russia with his
suite pass through Hong Kong by this mail.

VICTORIA.

On the 28th of November, the date to which
our Melbourne advices extend, the Victoria par-
liament was still in recess ; and it was understood
that the two houses would not meet for the de-
spatch of business before January or February.

The Exhibition at Melbourne continued to attract
numerous strangers to the capital, and was daily

GARIBALDI AND THE ROMAN INSURRIC-

TION.

The Italian papers print the following proclama-
tion by Garibaldi, which was given by him on
Thursday morning to a passenger on board the
steamer on which he was arrested at Maddalena :
Italians ! To-morrow we shall have completed our noble
revolution by dealing the last blow to the tabernacle of
idolatry, imposture, and Italian disgrace. The pedestal of
all tyrannies, the Papacy, has received the curses of the
whole world, and nations hare their eyes fixed on Italy as
upon a Saviour. And will Italy stop in her glorious
mission through the arrest of a single man? Yielding to
the desire of some friends I came to my dwelling free and
without conditions, and with the promise that a vessel
should soon be sent me to take me to the Continent. Now
the man whose name resound, with shame to Italy,
resorting to the precautions of the sbirri, prevents my
return. In this position I only ask my fellow-citizens
to continue in the sacred work they have b►gun
with the calmness of a nation conscious of its
power. To the army, to the people, I spoke of dis-
cipline when the people and the army, indignant with the
cowardly servility which governs us, asked to be led to
Rome. To the soldiers I said that their bayonets should
be kept for a more glorious minion, and that for the mer-
cenaries of the Pope the butt ends of their muskets would
suffice. Despite the evil genius which still weighs upon
our land there is one fact always before us, the imposing
fraternity of all the robust elements of the nation,
the army, the people, and the volunteers. Woe
to him who would throw discord amongst his
brethren ! And when Italy sees all her children united in
the work, the cowards who were stopped by the
foolish fears of foreign intervention will disappear. I repeat
then, you must achieve by whatever means the redemption
of Rome and if ever you think that my assistance is
necessary I rely upon it that you will consider how to
deliver me. G. GARIBALDI.

OLYMPIC.

This house was re-opened last night with Mr.
and Mn. Charles Mathews, who appeared together in the
successful comedy of The Liar, and Mr. Mathews sup-
plemented this attraction by appearing in Patter !erns
Clatter and Cool as a Coniwiter. A few changes have
been made in the comp►ny since the house was closed
about • month ago. Mr. F►rrell takes Mr. H. J. Mon-
tague's place, and Miss Louisa Moore has been engaged.

ALHAMBRL

A new comic ballet, called Quicksilver Dick, has
been produced at this house, with Mr. F. Evans in the
principal character. Mr. Evans has exceptional talent se
a pantomimist, and be uses it without stint. The ballet
is prettily put upon the stage, and its broad humour is in
strong contrast to the more elegant and less riotous bal-
lets of the evening. The musical entertainments here are
almost en as large a scale as those of Covent-garden. The
orchestra numbers nearly sixty members, many of them
eminent as soloists, and them are never less than fourteen
pieces in the nightly programme, including two selections
from operas, • classical overture, and all the latest and
best dance-music.
London, England, 1867-10-08

Mr. Serie proved that he handed the hall and also tLe
pistol found on the prisoner to Mr. Field, the gonm.dter.
Mr. Field deposed that in his judgment the bullrt was
not fired from that revolver.

Mr. Poland did not propose to sorry the ease any further
to-day, though he had thought it neoarary to clear up
the matter of the bullet. The inquest would be held on
Monday, and would be very lengthy.
Mr. Vaughan remanded the prisoner till 'Tuesday.

Yesterday afternoon, after the termination of the
coroner's inquiry, the remains of the deceased were con-
veyed to Windsor by the Great Western Railway, from
the University College Hospital, for interment, and they
will be consigned to their last resting plane this afternoon
at 3 o'clock, with full military honours. The band of the
regiment returned to Windsor last night, and it is under.
stood that the whole of the military who can be spared
from duty will attend.

At,`TION AGAINST AN OPERA SINGER.—The Tri-
bunal of Commerce at Brussels has just given judgment
in an action brought by M. Letellier, manager of the The-
atre Royal de la Mongtaie, against the tenor ginger Dalin-
rens, belonging to the establishment. Tb's artist was en-
gaged at a salary of 5,5001. a month, and was bound to
sing ten times every font weeks, extra appearances being
paid rzof. each ; and in case of his refusing to sing • de-
duction of equal amount from his salarywas authorised. On
the Bth of last month the programmeat the theatrewas sud-
denly changed in consequence of the illness of one of the
artists, and M. Dulaurens being called upon to sing
refused, on the ground that he had not received sufficient
notice. The house had, in consequence, to remain closed
that evening, and the money received had to be returned.
Hence the action. For the defendant, it was contended
that he was liable only to the forfeiture of 550 f. ; but the
court took a different view of the meaning of the contract,
and condemned him to pay M. Letellier the amount of loss
canoed by the suspension of the performance, and to all
the costa of the action. An expert was ordered to ascer-
tain the extent of the lose incurred by the manager.
PLEDGING GIRLS.—Girls are pledged in certain
parts of Raj tans by way of security for money. A
case of this description lately transpired at Kisbengurh.
It was brought to the notice of the governor-general's
agent, who remonstrated with the maharajah, and his
highness in reply informed him that although in inferior
castes, such as that to which the plaintiff belonged, the
impledgment of children was a common occurrence, still
at the agent's desire be had had the girl restored to her
parents, and the tbakwar censured. We gust this de-
testable practice will be at once done away with.—Hindoo
Patriot, Aug. 12.
The captain and crew of the brig Lady Franklin,
199 tons, were landed at Dover at 5 p.m. yesterday, rod
received into the Sailors' Home. This ill-fated vessel was
run into and sunk by the steamship Danzig, of Leith, at
1.30 a.m. The captain and crew had only just time to
scramble on board the steamer, and were unable to save
any of their clothes or other property.

THE POLICE COURT&

GUILDHALL.

Mrs. Frances Prnwiaa wiu placed at the bar on re-
mand, before Sir Robert W. Carden, charged with threat-
ening to take the life of Mrs. Cook, her sister-in-law.
Mr. Wontner again appeared for the complainant.
The prisoner wu the wife of a builder, but had given
way to drink to such an extent that Mr. Freeman wee
obligtd to get Mr. Cook, tho prisoner's brother, and his
wife to come and live in the house with him and try to
restrain the prisoner from drink. They were, however,
unable to control her, and the result was that a deed of sepa-
ration was executed, under which he allowed her Its. per
week. With that it appeared she indulged in intoxica-
tion, and while in that into she threatened in letters
that she would take the life of her sister-in-law, whom
she termed her husband's " wanton."

Mr. Wontner said that since she had been in prison she
had written a letter to her husband, begging his forgive-
ness. but saying theist the time she wrote the thre►tening
letters she meant to do what she stated. It was there
fore neemury that she should be restrained. If her
brother would remove her somewhere into the country
where she could not get drunk, it would be the beat thing
that could be done for her. The brother was the trustee
under the deed, and the allowance was ample.
The brother stepped forward and said he felt deeply the
degrading position his sister was in, but he feared he could
not bold control over her. . .

iitaL4.;ailea him if he would be bail for her!
The brother said decidedly not.
Sir R. W. Carden said he was not surprised at it, for
wbo would be bail for • drunkard ?

The prisoner, who appeared to feel her disgrace keenly,
said she would go anywhere or do anything her husband
wished.
Sir It. W. Carden told her she must find two sureties
in 101. to keep the pesos for twelve months.
In default of bail the prisoner was taken away in the
van.
