IN RE WILLIAM AMBROSE. AN ATTORNIY.

Mr. Garth moved, on behalf of the Law Society, that
William Ambrose, en attorney, who was convicted at Man-
chester of conspiring with hie clerk, to obtain money from
his clients by false pretences, should be suspended from
practising in this court for the term of 12 months after the
expiration of his imprisonment, in accordance with the de-
cision of the Court of Queen's Bench.
. . . . .

Mr. Baron Martin said the Court of Queen's Bench had
refused to consider themselves bound by the decision of
this court in the case of De Medina, and he did not see
why this court should now be bound by the decision of the
Court of Queen's Bench. He had always understood until
the decision in that case that all the courts considered
themselves bound by the judgment of any one court in
respect to the conduct of attorneys,
Mr. Bunn Channell—That rule only applied to the case
of suiting an attorney off the rolls, and not to mere sus-
pension.
Mr. Garth said he would obtain 'some precedents, and
would again bring the matter before their lordships,
• Motion postponed.
BOUILLON V. VALINTIN.

Mr. Leverson, the attorney for the defendant, applied in
this case for a rule calling upon Messrs. Benton and
Hall to answer certain matters, and also to compel them to
bring into court certain property of which they bad obtained
pueeessioo. He moved on behalf of Madame Valentin, •
French lady whew counsel, Mr. Serjeant Simon, was unable
to attend in consequence of ill health.
The Lord Chief Baron said it would be most desirable
that the muter should be postponed until Thursday next,
when Mr. Serjeant Simon would probably be enabled to
attend.

OPENING OF THE PRUSSIAN CHAMBERS.
SPEECH FROM THE THRONE.
BERLIN, JAN. 15.

The session of the Prosaism Chambers was
opened in the White Saloon of the Royal Palace to-
day by Count von Bismarck, who read the speech
from the throne.

The King announces that bills will be brought in
aettlips the budget mad aching for the supplies re-
quisite for the unchanged maintenance of the mili-
tary reorganisation and the increase of the navy.
Supplies will also be asked for the execution of the
North Sea and Baltic Canal, and various other
measures affecting home administration will be laid
before the Chambers. His Majesty expresses a con-
fident hope that the commeroial treaty with Italy
will be ratified by all the States of the Zollverein.
The finances of the kingdom are in a favourable
condition. The relations of Prussia with foreign
powers are satisfactory and friendly.
The royal speech continues :—" By the Gastein
convention Lauenbnrg has been united to the
Prussian crown. It is my desire, while treating
with consideration the peculiar state of things in
the duchy, to allow its inhabitants to enjoy all the
advantages of union with Prussia. The definitive
decision of.the future of Sleswig-Holstein has been
reserved by the Gaatein convention for further nego-
tiation. By the occupation of Sleswig, and by her
position in Holstein, Prussia has acquired a suffi-
cient guarantee that the decision can only be in a
sense corresponding to the interests of Germany
and the claims of Prussia. Resting upon my own
conviction, strengthened by the opinion of the legal
advisers of the crown, Lain determined to hold fast
this pledge, under all circumstances, until the de-
sired end is attained. Conscious of being sustained
by the assent of the people, I hope that the object
striven for and gained will prove a point of union
for all parties."

THE POLICE COURT&

MANSION HOUSE.

Otto Yemen, the well-dressed young German who was
examined last week upon the charge of stealing 191. from
a Belgian named Antoine Messegere, a clerk to a merchant
in the City, was yesterday brought before the Lord Mayor
for further examination.
It will be remembered that at the hut examination it
was stated that the prisoner and the roan who was with
him at the time the prosecutor was robbed of his money
are part of a gang of stylishly-dreseed foreigners who are
constantly prowling about the City looking out for any op-
portunity of plunder that may be afforded them. The
prisoner met the prosecutor at the General Poet Office when
he went there for letters, and having represented himself as
the manager of a c3mmercial house at Warsaw, and that he
was very familiar with a number of persons the prosecutor
knew at Antwerp, he threw him off his guard, and he
consented to allow a companion of the prisoner
to present a bill of exchange for 191. at the City Bank. He
represented that he kept an account at that bank, and the
prosecutor waited for him in a cab, but having obtained
the money he bolted. When the prisoner was parched, a
gist number of Hanoverian medals resembling sovereigns
were found upon him. He Ina remanded, in order to
afford an opportunity for the apprehension of his com-
pal ies.
t was now stated that the prisoner was in custody at
Guildhall about two years ago upon the charge of defraud-
ing a person of a ooesiderable sun of money. Upon that
occasion he was admitted to ben, but he did not appear,
and the recogoisances of his sureties were entreated. The
prisoner did subsequently surrender, bat during the in-
terval the prosecutor bad been " made right," as it is
tinned, and he did not come forward to support the
charge, and the prisoner consequently escaped.
The Lord Mayor inquired if the companion of the pri-
soner had been heard of since the last examination.
Hann, the detective officer, said he had been looking
after him. but had not been able t apprehend him, and he
was afraid be should not he able to do so. He believed
that he had gone to Parra.
The Lord Mayor said he considered the prisoner a very
dangerous fellow, and he should remand him for another
week to afford he constable an opportunity of making fur-
ther inquiries after his companion.

This was as appeal from the Goan of Session in ficotiavd,

whether a bill of exohange at one day's date, given to the
respondent by his mother, and which was duly honoured,
but was boned in hie possession after his mother's death,
sixteen years having elapsed, was an absolute gift or
donation, or was in the nature of a legacy, and so charge-

was a gift, and hence the present appeal.
Their lordships being of opinion that the decision of the
court below was erroneous, reversed it, and held that daty

GIJILIIKALL.

Sir R. W. Carden OBI; to this ooart yesterday tohear an
explanation from Mr. Attenborougb, a pawnbroker carry-
ing on business is the Old "(eat-read, relative to some
obwe►atioas mode by Sir Robert on an emission when s man
named Penicker was committed for trial on a charge of rob-
Meg his employers. The goods, it will be reoollected, were
sent by Parcels Delivery Company to Mr. Attenborougb,
and he returned the premeds by poet-office order.
The gist of Mr. Attmsboroagh's explanation, as given by
Mr. Sleuth. who appeared for him, wasthat he had formerly
dons ImeMeas with a Mr. Penitiker, who was a map of

undoubted reopectability. This perms be lost sight of for a
time. About six months ego be received a letter from •
Mr. Perneker, and the bead writiog being very similar he
thought the writer was his old customer • he however took
the precaution of going to the address giros ip the letter.
and learnt that Mr. Penick*: lived them, but was in the City,
being • commercial stmt. Another point Mr. Sleigh
meetioned was, that Mr. Attenborongh gave the full vales
for the goods which be would not hays done bad be had
any unworthy motive.
Sir B. W. Carden said it was a pity that that explaeatioo
had not taken pleat earlier. The seer wee before him six
with' ego sad the evidence wee not before him now.
When the man pleaded gu,lty at the Old Bailey that woe
the time that the explanation should have been given, and
thee it would have come with greater force than at pre.
sent. He had heard nothing to alter the opinion be then
expressed. Mr. Attenborough bad taken in goods that came
by the Parcels Delivery Company, and had given no ticket
with them. If that practice were followed it would be im-
possible for the polies, with all their vigilance, to de-
tect thieves sod trace property. They e4eld watch
the thieves, but it was impossiWe they could watch the
Parcels Delivery carte. It was true Mr. Atteeborough
made inquiry, and said it was a most respectable home the
man lived at, and that he rented it himself, whereas it
turned out that he rented a garret at the top of the house
at be. a week. It wee an extreme want of caution on the
part of Mr. Atteobororigh. He said no more than that at
the commeneemeoll and he thought so still.
Mr. Attaaborouga said be was glad to bear him say that,
for while be admitted his indiscretion, he contended aiainet
befog wilfully deceived.
Mr. Sleigh then thanked Sir Robert for the attention he
had given them, and retired with his ()Beet.

.G, M4iliCH

-14rEst; INTKLLIG
AND PRIINPAE
The latest German jotildili is
favourable to the continuant* of peace, altha

r

appears that both Austria and Prussia are conti-
nuing their armaments. According to the Vienna
journals Austria intends to refer the solution of
the question respecting the Duchies to European
arbitration, and with this object is going
to avail herself of the accidental meeting of the
Conference which is now sitting in Paris for the
settlement of the affairs of the Danubian Princi-
palities. The Vienna Gazette, moreover, suggests
that Austria should refer the question to the Ger-
man Diet. The Official Gazette of Bavaria says
that it would regard with horror a war between
Austria and Prussia, the first result of which
would be foreign intervention, and perhaps lead to
the ruin of Germany. It makes an appeal for oon-
oord, and points out the evil consequences
of a fratricidal war. But should a war
break out it would be the duty of the secondary
States to "fight bravely for right and honour,"
which, however, by no means indicates on which
We these States would range themselves in the
event of a war. The anniversary of the birth of
the Prussian King was made the omission of an exhi-
bition of friendly feelings between the Austrian and
Prussian troops in the Duchies. General von
Gablenz sent Herr von Hoffman to Schleswig to re-
present him at the banquet which was given by
General Manteuffel in celebration of the day.
Austria, in the opinion of the Avenir National,
has one great advantage over Prussia, namely,
that the war would be popular in the former,
whereas the people of Prussia do not wish to be
dragged into a war of which they perceive the injus-
tice. But Herr von Bismarck does not abate one
jot of his arrogance. When Count Karolyi asked,
on behalf of the Austrian government, for explana-
tions respecting the ordinance of March 11, he
haughtily replied, " Prussia cannot tolerate the
agitation of the Angustenburg party in the
Duchies."

members of the society, consisting of Roman catholic
priests, protestant clergymen, rabbis, and a crowd of
influential laymen. At 8 precisely the chairman opened
the proceedings in au address, in whicli, after expressing
his high satisfaction at beholding such an assembly of the
representatives of all creeds, be explained the necessity
for the work propos:A. According to his idea the
sew translation would to so much the easier of
accomplishment that it afforded a neutral ground
on which all persons might meet—namely, that
of philology and literature. A committee of trawls-
tiara was afterwards formet, oomprlving NZ Martin
de Noirlien, Vallette, Paris, and Astrue, with M. Petavel
for secretary. The latter gentleman reed a report on the
&erecter of the society, which be dealarr•d not to be in
any way doctrinal, and on the manner in which it hoped to
realise its object. Afterwards, in snooession, the
care of Sahrt-LonieerAn.in, the Grand Rabbi, M.
Valletta, Y. Bertrand, anon of Versailles, and
N. Levy Bing addressed the meeting to express
their adhesion. The Abbe Loisos, vicar of Saint.
Olotbilde, also spoke, and in the name of catholicism die-
avowed the inquisition. The general character of this
meeting led to the hops that the work may teed to advance
religious toleration. The very decided support given to the
undertaking by such resjectablo members of the catholic
clergy of Paris favours a report which Is prevalent to the
effect that the learned and liberal archbishop at the head
of the diocese is not hostile to what le proposed.
N. Guizot bee declined to take part in the moiety for

and the Prince de Broglie have joined it.

children died long ago, but they had not been for-
gotten by their fellow-countrymen, and when the
Baroness, who is now eighty years of age, appeared
at her window in answer to the request of a depu-
tation from the crowd, she received an enthusiastic
greeting. Then, after cheers for the King and
Garibaldi, the musicians retired and the crowd
dispersed.
I might relate many more instances of the keen
recollection of the past which is borne by Venice.
Not even the " Vivas" for the Italian army, on
that bright and happy nineteenth of October, were
louder than those for the Countess Mont-
alban-Comello. The colours which she had
presented to the National Guard were
carried at the head of the procession,
and everyone knew, as the marble palaces echoed
back her name, that this courageous lady had
suffered imprisonment for conspiring against
Austria. A short time subsequent to the entry of
the troops, the first political prisoner released by
his Imperial Majesty arrived in Venice. Signor
Brinis was met at the station by a band of music,
and by citizens bearing tricolour flags. It was
some disappointment to the crowd that he came
alone, his companions in misfortune having been
delayed on their journey, albeit he was none the
less heartily welcomed back. But if we have had
no return of prisoners in a body, we have bad
almost the same thing in a return of maritime con-
scripts from the Austrian service. They are fine
strapping young sailors ; and their loss to the im-
perial marine cannot easily be repaired. Of all the
45,000 conscripts furnished to Austria by Venetia,
none were more useful than the sailors of the
Lagoon. Soldiers can be manufactured out of
Huns and Croats in any required number, but
blue jackets are not to be made to order. By
what I saw of the returned conscripts, I imagine
that there is no chance of their willingly going
aboard ship again for any warlike purpose except
to fight their old captains under a new flag.

LONDON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 30.

SIMULTANEOUSLY with the War-office advertia

ment of prizes for breechloaders and revolvers
for the future armament of our troops, there has
been issued by the Horse Guards an order that
the men in our infantry regiments shall be exer-
cised daily in " running drill." After six
weeks of preliminary training, each soldier is
to be required to run 1,000 yards a day,
at a pace not exceeding the rate of six miles
an hour, and on each alternate day carrying
his arms and accoutrements during the exer-
cise. When this stage has been reached, cer-
tain battalion movements, hitherto usually per-
formed in ordinary time, are to be executed at
the " double." These announcements of the two
great departments of our military organization
have, it will be readily seen, a connexion with
each other more intimate than the accident of
being promulgated at the same time. They both
grow out of the necessity for recognising rapidity
of fire as a new element in tactics. It has become
indispensable that our troops shall have weapons
which are nut slower or less deadly than those with
which foreign troops are armed. But it has be-
come equally indispensable that our men should
not be exposed to so withering a fire a moment
longer than can be helped. Within the space of
but a few minutes a whole regiment may now be
annihilated. To diminish by a half the period
during which it is subject to such a chance is
equivalent to saving half the men that would have
otherwise been killed or disabled. Such is the
necessity of the case which has forced the Horse
Guards to abandon its traditional " quick time,"
and to consent to place our men on equal terms with
foreign chasseurs and bersaglieri, by accustoming
them to execute the chief movements of a field of
battle at a speed hitherto reserved almost wholly
for the bayonet charge.
But while the modification in drill has been
compelled by so cogent a reason, it is as well not
to overlook that it has been long ago called for by
other considerations. The army which can most
rapidly manoeuvre is not only that which loses
fewest men, but that which is most efficient for

Al LXLICCOCK.

Ou Saturday a reform demonstration, intended
as an indication of the popular feeling in Ayrshire, took
place at Kilmarnock. The proceedings commenced with a
procession, which was marshalled in the public park, and
having marched through the town returned to the park
for the purpose of taking part in an open-air meeting. The
principal trades of Kilmarnock and neighbourhood were
represented on the 'occasion, there being also deputations
from Newneilns, Kilmaurs, Galston, Mauchline,Stewarton,
Dairy, and DarveL The passage of the procession through
the streets of course attracted numerous spectators,
but beyond • meagre exhibition of bunting here and
there there was no attempt to decorate the town.
At the open-air meeting, Councillor Cochrane, of
Paisley, presided, and speeches were delivered by,
among others, Mr. Ernest Jones and ex-Councillor Moir, of
Glasgow. Resolutions were adopted pledging the meeting
to support the "Scottish National Reform League" in its
efforts to obtain, by all lawful means, registered resi-
dential manhood suffrage with the ballot, tendering thanks
to Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Bright, and other true friends of
reform ; and expressing indignation at the conduct of those
members of parliament who had refused to assist the
working classes in their endeavour to obtain a fair share of
the franchise. In the evening a meeting was held in the
Corn Exchange, at which Provost Dickie, of Kilmarnock,
presided. Among the speakers here was Mr. Cranford,
M.P., who, while indicating that he was not prepared to
go the length of manhood suffrage, expressed himself
strongly in favour of reform. Among the resolutions
adopted was one insisting that " the question of reform be
no longer trifled with."

UNREPRESENTED CONSTITUENCIES.-oWillg to the
fact that Sir Hugh Calms, Mr. Walsh, now Master of the
Rolls in Ireland, and Mr. Morris ,111. P., were not returned

addressed to Venetia will henceforward be sent, via France,
in the mails for Italy, and will be subject, in all respects,
to the rates of postage and general regulations applicable

TAB ALABAMA CLAIMS.

The Tines retm as to the Alabama cane, again
urging the reference of the claims which the Americans
make to a joint commission. Not merely the democratic
pat ty,whose traditional policy is hostility to Great Britain,
but the republicans encourage the belief that the United
States have suffered a grievous wrong at our hands, and
that we have denied through our government a legitimate
claim for reparation. This in itself constitutes a strong case
for consideration, and, if necessary, for reconsideration.
The principle that international obligations are limited by
the provisions of municipal legislation, though apparently
sanctioned by the high authority of the late Attorney-Gene.
ral, is assuredly not above dispute, and if this principle be
surrendered we can hardly help recognising the conflicting
" equities "of two innocent parties in the Alabama case-
But it is not upon this ground alone the Times ventures to
urge the course referred to upon the attention of Lord
Stanley. If the dictates of justice be doubtful, those of
policy are clear. Great Britain has everything to gain by
the adoption of a code whereby a weaker maritime power ,
may be restrained from equipping Alabaman in American
porta. Our navy may or may not be the most powerful
in the world, but, if it were ten times as powerful as
it is, it could not protect our commercial marine against
privateers built anywhere and commissioned nowhere.
Let us anticipate, then, the violent counsels of a
dominant party by conciliatory overtures which would be
appreciated by the whole nation. We have a Foreign
Secretary who is not only free to do so, without aLy i-
fioe of personal dignity, but enjoys the rare credit, both at
home and abroad, of being superior to national prejudices.
Such an opportunity, if lost, may not recur before some
fresh dispute arises to confound the merits of that now
' pending, and to make its settlement impossible.

The Telegraph is amazed at the commercial and financial
prosperity of the United States, which appears fabulous
to our old world notions. On the lst day of August, 1865,
the debt of the United State, was 551,450,000/. ; on the
Ist of August. 1866, 526,300,0001. ; and on the let day of
the present month, 514,800,000 C In fourteen months the
government has actually paid, not only the interest, but
36,850,0001. of the capital ; the reduction being at the
rate of about 2,700,000/. per month for the whole
term. During the Later part of .the period it has,
indeed, been much more nipi.l, and it amounted
for the two months of August and September to nearly

TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE.

(BMW/ TILTAILLII6.)
AUSTRIA ANI) ITALY.
PARIS, Sun. 14, EVENING.

In opposition to the statements made in the Ita-
lian journals, the Paris papers assert that a serious
difficulty has arisen in the Austro-Italian negotia-
tions relative to the Venetian debt. Austria per
in declaring that the precedent of the treaty
of Zurich cannot .be opplied to the debt contracted
since 1859. The treaty of Prague and the con-
vention by which Venetia was ceded to
France having unconditionally sanctioned the
precedents afforded by the treaty of Zurich, Italy
maintains conformably therewith that the territo-
rial possession of Venetia involves the payment
only of the special debt of that province. Baron
Werther is expected shortly in Vienna. His visit
is ascribed to the difficulties which have arisen
relative to the fulfilment of article 2 of the treaty
of Prague, which refers to the conditions for the
union of Venetia with Italy.

PRUSSIA.

Kipg William received a deputation from the I
municipal authorities of Potsdam on the 12th, who '
came to present a congratulatory address. The 11
following is his reply :
lam thankful that the representatives of the second
capital repeat to me through you what you have already • •
expressed to me in an address upon my return from the •
field. Yes, we have lived together through a grand period,
glorious to our Prusaian fatherland, and it is to be hoped
fraught with blessings to our larger fatherland of
Germany. It was very difficult for me at my advanced
age to rive the order for war—war against an old federal
ally with a rightful position ia Germany, and to whose
ancient sovereign house I was bound by various relations.
It was doubly difficult for me because I knew the wart-
Aces I was compelled to impose upon my entire people; ;
but I was challenged to act as I did, and forced to enter ;
upon the struggle. That I could do so with confidence we
owe to the instrument through which aloes victory mould
be obtained—the army—which I had carefully prepared,
in order to benble to rely upon it in the moment of danger.
Continuing to build upon the foundations laid by my two I
predecessors, I have not allowed myself to be led
astray in the °Deviation that Prussia would some day need
a strong and well-drilled army to withstand every other
force, perhaps stronger and better drilled, which might
threaten our existence. For four years my conscientious
labours at this task—the task of a life for myself as far
the State—have been embittered ; bat the result has
show* that labour and sacrifice have not been in vain. It
wra the contest of two equally well-drilled equivalent
armies, and I therefore recognise in the decision favourable
to us the finer of Providence visible in the work we have
partly already finished, partly have still to execute, and
perhaps, as you very correctly say, shall not bring to a for
tunede conclusion until after still further trial, for me and
for you. For this reason I rejoice at the sentiments and
promises the representatives of the towns have recently upon
various occasions expressed towards me, and with which
you, gentlemen, have 'emaciated yourselves to-day. I
meet be able to count upon the representatives of all (the
towns and communes of my country to solve the problems
• still impending over us.
A review took place in the Lustgarten immediately after
the delivery of the King's reply to the address.
