RIFLE GUNS.

Mr. H. BLILLIZ asked the Secretory of State for War
whether any of the 12-ton guns rifled 'moo the Wooltrioh
pattern, and now being served out to her Majeety's ships,
had been submitted to the Wet of continuous firing, such
as would occur during a bombardment ; whether the raoge
and accuracy of such guns had been fully ascertained by
either separate or competitive proof ; and whether it had
been represented to the War-office that the steel tubes
rifled on the Woolwich system of those guns would not
be able to stand, without injury or destruction, such stmt.
The Marquis of HARTINUTON said that the 12-ton pat-
tern gun fired 135 roundsbefore it improved, moontionously
se the state of the tide at Shoeburyneee would admit. The
same gun afterwards fired 315 rounds, and its accuracy had
been folly maiotsined. The select committee reported that
it had made the best practice that bad aver been made by
any rifle gun.

LAMBETH.

George Ward, a ragged youth of 16, wes charged before
Mr. Elliott with stealing a silver watch of the value of
three guineas, the property of James Morris.
The prosecutor, a stonemason, residing at 1, New-street,
Lambeth-walk, said that on the evening before, while on
hie way home, he stopped for a few minutes in Mill-street
to look at two boys fighting, and had not been there long
when he felt a tug at his right hand waistcoat pocket, and
found that his watch was gone. He turned round and saw
the prisoner, who stood close by him just before, run
away, and on his attempting to run after him, he (witness)
was hustled and surrounded by ten or twelve persons who
stood about.
Benjamin Wales, a little fellow, said he saw a silver
watch on the ground and picked it up, but the prisoner
snatched it out of his hand and ran away with it. He was
sure tha prisoner was the person who had picked it up and
ran away with it. By falling on the ground the glass flew
off the watch and this he (witness) kept.
Elizabeth Bond deposed that she had seen the last wit-
ness with the watch in his hand, and observed that the
prisoner snatched it from him and ran away.
Police-constable 24 L said that from the description he
had got of the prisoner he apprehended him in a short time
after the robbery, but he denied all knowledge of the
watch, and said that he had not been near the spot at the
time of the robbery.
The prisoner endeavoured, in a manner which proved
him to be a practised thief, to show a disparity iu the evi-
dence the witnesses had now given and their statements at
the station-house, and was remanded for a week.

THAMES.

Henry Benjamin Wood, a master lighterman, appeared
before Mr. Woolrych to answer a summons taken out by
Mr. Frere, solicitor to the Board of Conservancy of the
river Thames, which charged the defendant with discharg-
ing deleterious and offensive matter into the river.
A gentleman from the office of Mr. Frere conducted the
prosecution, and said the offence charged against Mr.
Wood was one of a very serious nature, and he must ask
that a substantial fine should be levied to prevent, if pos-
sible, the emptying of poisonous substances into the
Thames.

It appeared from the evidence of John Parker, a Thames
police-constable, No. 31, that on Tuesday, the 2nd of the
present mouth, at noon, he was in a police galley upon the
river, near Duke's-shore, Limehouse, when he saw a large
quantity of gas tar floating on the surface of the river.
He traced it fur some distance along the stream to a barge
in which he saw the defendant. The plug in the hold of
the barge had been removed, and the gas tar with which
the barge was laden allowed to flow out into the river.
There were six inches of gas tar in the barge when he went
on board. He told the defendant he was doing wrong, and
that he should have to report his illegal conduct to his
superintendent. The defendant came next day to the
Thames Police station in Wapping, and offered him a love
reign to ease the case.
In answer to a question by Mr. Woolrych, the witness
said he saw as mush aa forty gallons of gas tar on the sur-
face of the water. _ .

The defendant all that was alleged against Lim.
Mr. Woolrych said the case was very dearly made out,
and the defendant was liable to a penalty of 21W. He
should on this occasion impose a fine of 101. and costa.

THE PRUSSIAN UPPER CHAMBER.

The Prussian Upper Chamber voted at its sitting
on the 17th the electoral law for the parliament of
Northern Germany ; but this vote was decided
more from motives of conciliation than by a sin-
cere and complete adhesion to the principle of the
bill. There are two things especially which
offended the conviction of the members of the
Upper Chamber—first, the application of universal
suffrage to the election of the future parlia-
ment, and secondly the irresponsibility of members
of parliament for words spoken by them in the
assembly. Upon the first point the Upper Cham-
ber decreed, and even proposed through its com-
mittee, an important modification. Tho par-
liament, which is to meet at Berlin, will
bear the character of a sort of national
convention charged with the working out
of the political' constitution of North Germany.
awl with preparing the plan of the new confedera-
tion. The Upper Chamber, though it has not been
of opinion that all the inhabitants of the country
should take part, by their votes, in such a work,
has deferred to the wish expressed by M. Wagner,
the government commissioner. Speaking for M.
de Bismarck, whose illness unfits him temporarily
for parliamentary work, M. Wagner showed the
necessity for absolute and immediate sanction to
the project. The Chamber gave way, but after
voting the law it adopted a proposition of its com-
mittee which asks the government to inquire
whether, in the discussing of the federal
constitution, it would not be expedient
that the election of one half of the
deputies should be made by citizens who pay the
greatest amount of taxation, and to add to the
Chamber of Deputies a States Chamber like that
which was indicated in Art. 86 of the constitutional
project of the 26th of May, 1849. One of the
speakers, who had supported the propositions of the
committee, M. de Kleist-Keistow, said, in concluding
his observations, Democracy is the most
powerful and most dangerous enemy that Prussia
has. It was conquered at Koeniggratz—it must
be conquered also in our Chambers and in the
parliament."
The Debata observes that the representation of
the defeat of Austria at Koeniggratz as a defeat of
democracy will excite no little astonishment at
Vienna.

A Biarritz letter states that the Empress has
been on an excursion to Bare, and is believed to have the
intention of ascending the Mune. Her Majesty with her
suite also visited a shooting-ground at Atalaye, and re-
mained there about an hour. Among th • persons who
have arrived at Biarritz are—Viscount Talleyrand, Freneh
Ambassador at Bt. Petersburg ; Mr. Bigelow, American
Minister in Paris ; Baron de Vougy, the Duke de la Con-

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE TROUBLES IN SICILY.

The Italian journals say nothing of the republi-
can element amongst the Sicilian insurgents. The
Italia declares that the outbreak is due solely to
the monastic and mendicant corporations sup-
pressed by the law, who have worked upon the re-
fractory conscripts, and tried to create an Italian
Vend6e. " The movement at Palermo," says the
Nazione, " is nothing but the result of an alliance
of brigands, friars, and of the clergy. It is the
monastery of Monreale which has been the rendez-
' you', the head-quarters of theee champions of rapine
and of fanaticism. The garrison of Palermo has but
1,200 men. The population, from the beginning,
has taken an attitude favourable to public order."

ATITYPTING TO. STAB ♦ FATHICIL

Valise' Gardener and Robert Gardener, brothel!, were
owed before Mr. Barker, the former with assaulting his
father, and the latter with attempting to stab his father,
and also threatening his life. Mr. Ricketts, solicitor,
&faded-
The evidence showed that this was a family
who had frequent disputes, and it appeared
that the prisoner Robert went home on the
goodly afternoon the worse for liquor, demanded some-
thing to sat, abused his father, and said with an oath that
he would have the old man's life. He took out a knife and
thew it at his father, and it went with such force that it
Ana in the floor. This violence was wholly owing to the
mbar prisoner having been previously locked up for
wigwag his father. That brother was also the
womi for liquor, and abused and assaulted his father,
and it was with great difficulty that he was pre-
vented from doing him some injury. Both prisoners
on the way to the police-station were noisy and quarrel-
some, and it was with great difficulty they could be got
there. One of the prisoners bad before been charged with
a Melia offence, but the father did not now want to act
vindictively in the matter : all that he required was that
his sons should be bound over to keep the peace, and not
to come to his house and annoy him in his old days.
The defence was a general denial of the charges, and
an accusation against the father of being the wave for
liquor, and commencing the disturbance by first assaulting
thaprisoners.
The sister of the prisoners denied that her father was
drunk, and said that the priaoners were very abusive and
Insulting, and the one that threw the knife did so with
rich force that had it strock her father it would have
done him some very serious Injury. When the police
imitable took him into custody he had the knife in
lie band and pretended to be paring his nails.
Mr, Barker ordered the prisoner William to pay a fine
J 20a, or in default to be imprisoned and kept to hard
Idiour for fourteen days. The other prisoner was or-
dered to And one surety in the sum of di. to keep the
pesos for three months.

THE PRUSSIAN AMNESTY.

The Temps remarks that the above amnesty is a
good example for Austria, who, much more than
Prussia, is interested in securing to herself
by acts of humanity and clemency the sym-
pathy and ooncurrenoe of all her citizens.
There are no longer any political prisoners
in Prussian Germany, but there still re-
mains such in Austria. It is greatly to be de-
sired that the Emperor Francis Joseph and his
advisers should understand that a full and com-
plete amnesty will bo the best preface to these re-
forms without which the Austrian monarchy is no
longer safe.
