POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

LIVERPOOL.
BEFORE MR. H. SMITH.

THE POST OFFICE CASE.—William Henry Tyndall,
late a sorter in the General Post office, who had been
remanded on a charge of concealing letters, with the
intention of appropriating the contents to his own use,
was brought up again. Mr. Banning, the solicitor. to
the Post office, appeared for the prosecution, and Mr.
Muck defended the prisoner. The evidence given on
this day week (which we have already published) was
repeated, and in addition to that, Mr. Thomas Cooper, a
gentleman residing at 173, Grove street, stated, that on
Friday week he wrote letter (now produced) and posted
it at Mr. Titherton's, Canning street. It was a letter to
a newspaper office in London, for the payment of a
newspaper, and contained half a sovereign (in a card)
and ten postage stamps. The card was.a portion of one
Which he got in Cumberland last summer, when he
bought some hams and got the card: He swears that the
letter and contents belong to him. Mr. Bluck : Do you
swear to the card ? No, not to the card. Mr. Bluck :
Nor to the gold ? No, but to the writing. Cozens, the
detective officer, in addition to what he had already
stated, said, another of the letters found on the prisoner,
contained two threepenny and twofourpenny pieces. There
were no addresses given in the letters by the writers of
the two latter, but the pst-office authorities had written
to the persons to whom the letters were addressed, to
ascertain who the writers were, but as yet no answers
had been received. The letters were sent to London to
the Postmaster General, in order to have them opened,
but they were sent back here on Thursday, awl ordered
to be opened in presence of the proper officer, and were
found to contain the coins mentioned. Mr. Hunter,
who watched the prisoner, repeated his former
evidence, and added that in searching the pri-
soner's lodging in Haigh street, he found a sure of
£lO 103. and a Bank book, with entries of three lodg-
ments of money—two for £6 each, and one for
£B, together with a gold guard chain and other valuable
jewellery. Mr. Banning slid that was the case at
present. Mr. Muck said in that stage of the case he
would not offer any defence, as it was clear the magis-
trate could not decide it in that court. He applied for a
portion of the money found in the prisoner's
house, on the ground that the prisoner's wife
was quite destitute, and he (Mr. Bluck) contended
that as there was no charge against him as regards the
money, and as lie (Mr. B) was instructed co say, the
prisoner could account for it, he was sure the magistrate,
as he had the power, would order a portion of the
money to be given to the wife for her support. As to
the other portion of the money, he (qtr. B.) would
apply to the judge who would try the case, as that was
the proper time and tribunal to apply to. After a short
discussion, a sum of £5 was ordered to be given to the
wife of the prisoner, Mr. Banning not objecting.

THE ROYAL. VISIT TO OXFORD.

Cereal), Friday.—Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales,
the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, this morning
paid a hurried visit to the University, where they arrived
by special to from Windsor at half-past 10 o'clock. The
Royal party were met at the Great Western Railway
S'ation by the Rev. Dr. iPlumtre, pro Vice-Chancellor
(who acted as chaperon throughout the-day), and the Rev.
Dr. Wellesley, Principal of New Inn Ile; and proceeded
at once to the nearest object of interest, the Taylor
Baildings and Randolph Galleries. The nature of the
Taylor Institution,. which is devoted to the study and
cultivation of the Eeropean languages, was explained to
'the Prince, who seemed to take great interest in it. The
Prince and youthful family, with their attendants, spent
some time in Mr. Hope's Entomological Museum, which
is well known to be one of the richest in England.
Upon leaving .the Taylor Buildings the Royal party
directed their course to Christ Church, at which place they
were received by the resident canons, 11,:v. Dr. Ball and
Rev. Dr. Hantley (Margaret Professor of Divinity.) Here
they inspected the Dining Hall, Cathedral, Chapter Hall,
and Library. Upon leaving Christ Church, they proceeded
to all Soule. Crossing from All Souls the Radcliffe
Library was next inspected; afterwards the treasures of tbs
Bodeliaa Library were pointed out to the Royal party by
the librarian (Rev. Dr. Bandinett). The Divinity Sclool,
Convocation House, and Sheldonian Theatre, came next
in order, after which the New Mese= (which is only
in a state of formation) formed the next attraction. Upon
leaving the latter place, they preceded to New College,
and visited the beautiful chapel, hall, arc. belonging to that
college. The party, upon leaving New College, directed their
course to the Matter's lodgings, University College, where
they were entertained by Dr. Plumptre, end remained for
some considerable time. After leaving the Master's lodgings
the royal party proceeded to Magdalen'a College, and were
met by the president '(the Rev. Dr, Buller). Upon leaving
Magdalen they visited the chapel and library of Merton
College, in company with the Rev. H. Sergeant and the
Rev. H. B. Walton, after which the treasures of Queen's
College were inspected. The royal party finally left Oxford
by special train, at half past futir o'clock, and returned to
Windsor, evidently highly pleased with their visit.

quite as numerous as those which for many years it was engaged in

paper stamp. N.ithing will tend so much to the abolition of the
piper duty as a systematic attack upon the injustice which it inflict
in individual cases. The association will therefcre feel obliged by
any addiition to its information on this subject. and will be ready to
consider the practicability of o,.tatning redress in any individuals
ease of grievance.

THE PUBLIC MEETING.

A note was real from J. A. Roebuck, Esq., M.P.,
accepting an invitation to attend and address tee public
meeting at the Concert Hall, on the 22ed inst , and stating
that be will be, indeed, happy, if he c4n in any promote the
great wczk advocated by the association; Samuel Morley,
Esq., vita predient of the Administrative Reform Associa-
tion, also wrote to say that it would afford him great
pleasure to attend the meeting, but that if Mrt Roebuck
did so, his pretence might be die2ensed with.

PRIZE ESSAYS.

Mr. Andre* Oraharn, of Sr. Andrew's, Scotland, wrote
to tender co-operation in his neighblurhood, and suggested
that if the association were to offer prizes f(ir the best essays
en the subjees of tocation and security to the revenue,
sulmriptions would be gent in from all quarters for the
accamplishment of so desirable an object. It. was observed
that this was a plan which would set all the talent of the
country at work, and th.at many and most valuable essays
had been elicited by such means—amongst them that of Mr.
gewmarch, demonstrating the very slight difference
in the vales of • long and perpetual annuities, and
showing that if the national debt had been
borrowed on the former instead of the latter;
that enormous incubus woull now have been pretty nearly
extinguished. The present Chancellor of the Exchequer
was alluded to as holding most crude and incorrect notions
on the subject of terminable and perpetual annuities. The
decision was, that Mr. Graham be thanked for his commu-
nication, and informid that the council have not the means
for carrying out his auggestion at present, but would be
happy to comply with it if funds were specially provided
for the Purpose.

CAPE OF GOOD 'TOPE.

We have received papers from the Cape of Good
Hope to the 11th of November inclusive. The
news is highly satisfactory. The intelligence from
the frontier is entirely of a pacific character, and
the colony throughout was tranquil and improving.
We subjoin extracts

(Prom the Graham's `'own Journal, N-ov. 1.)
Our intelligence from the frontier is very scanty. Al
King William's Town everything appears to be very
quiet.

Our letters speak hopefully of peace being nsaintainec
with the present efficient and judicious system of frontie.
defence, and the prospect of the German Legion being
added to our force.

(From the Cape Pown ifail of Nov. 11.)
As far as we can judge from report and common fame,
the danger from the Kaffirs is over for the present, Tle
difficulty of preserving order during the great changes in
their Condition involved in the progress of civilisation,
terrains as it was. A strong military force, a vigilant
police, strict administration of justice, roads and markets,
are the instruments which government wields directly for
this purpose. Intercourse with their civilised neighbours,
missionary institutions, churches and schools, supply the
influences of permanent reformation. All these are now in
a state of great efficiency, and all working together in
perfect harmony.
The intelligence from the frontier is much of a similar
nature to previous accounts. The Kaffirs were said to be
sowing, and the 'Slambies were making large purchases of
corn from the Fingoes.
We have received the Anglo African, which says that it
was currently reported that Pato has stated that he will
firmly oppose the passage through his country of the Ger-
mans, 2,000 of whom, by the bye, are said to be on board
the Himalaya on theil way hither.
A correspondent in the Free State, writing On the 22th
ult., says :--" The Basutos are all quiet, and the farmers
returning quietly to their homes. There appears to be
now a probability of the frontier remaining quiet for
some time.''

their children the physical advantages which result from this educa-
tion of the corporal powers are answerable for more than half the

health of the body, they may probatly perceive the moral as well
