ceeded in seizing him by the collar. He then gave him
into the custody of police-constable 119 D.
Mr. Long--Were the neckties found upon him ?
Prosecutor—They were not, sir ; he had, no doubt,
passed them to another party, as five or six more boys,
no doubt confederates, were standing at a short distance
from the shop when the prisoner made his egress there-
from.

Mr. Long—Are you quite certain that the prisoner
is the boy who stole the articles ?
Prosecutor—l am, sir.

Colonel had addressed the regiment the whole of the
officers and above 600 of the men stepped forward as
-volunteers. This regiment is 750 strong, and, having
been employed in garrison duties for 12 months, there is
every probability of their services being immediately ac•
cepted, as some of the corps who have volunteered have
as yet all the duties of a garrison to learn.
A great number of volunteers from the Tower Ham-
lets Militia having gone over to other regiments, they
are to be disbanded forthwith.
The 2d or Somerset Militia arrived in Dublin on Mon-
day from Cork.

THAMES.

VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A POLICE•CONSTABLE.—JOhn
Driscoll, a dirty-looking fellow, with only a few rags
on his person, 'and a beard of a fortnight's growth, the
very beau ideal of a drunken Irish tailor, who are always
worse clothed than any other person, was charged with
committing a violent assault on Henry Cotton, a police-
constable, No. 60 H.

The policeman stated that the prisoner was very dis-
orderly on Tower-bill last night, and shouting and
screaming loudly. He interfered with the prisoner, who
began kicking him as hard as he was able, and swore he
would kick him to pieces. He took the prisoner into
custody, and he acted in a most obstreperous manner,
struck him repeatedly, and at last fell on the ground
and kicked and plunged violently. He obtained other
assistance, and conveyed the prisoner to the station-
house. The prisoner had been in custody before for dis-
orderly conduct, and was a most troublesome character.

Mr. Yardley—When was the prisoner in custody
before I

Roche, the gaoler—He was here a very few days ago
for riotous and disorderly conduct.
Mr. Yardley sentenced the prisonor to 14 days' im-
prisonment in the House of Correction.

ASSAULT BY AN AMERICAN SEAMAN.— William Long,
an American seaman, who only arrived in this port yes-
terday, was charged with assaulting John Ryan, a police-
constable, 214 H.

Ryan stated that he found the prisoner asleep at an
early hour this morning under an arch of the Blackwall
Railway. Upon arousing him, the prisoner knocked
him down, and when he got up kicked him and struck
him under the ear. He called for assistance, and four
"civilians " came to his aid and secured the prisoner,
who was very much intoxicated.
Mr. Yardley fined the prisoner 405., which he paid.

ROBBEitY BY A DIITCHMAN.—Johannas Jandersloan,
a Dutchman, was brought before Mr. Yardiey charged
with stealing a pint pot and two drinking glasses.
Henry Geels, barman at the Sun and Sawyers public-
house, in Whitechapel, said the prisoner was drinking
at the house in company with other foreigners yesterday.
As the prisoner was leaving the house a person called
attention to him, and he detained him and found a pint
pot tied behind his back and two drinking glasses in his
pockets. They belonged to Mr. Junge, the landlord of
the house. A foreigner said the prisoner came to this
country last Sunday to join the Foreign Legion, and he
was rejected. The British Government would take no
more Dutchmen, because they were constantly quar-
relling with the Germans in the Legion. Many Ger-
mans had deserted in consequence of the bad conduct of
the Dutch. Mr. Yardley—The prisoner is a very dis-
honest man, and the Foreign Legion has had a very
lucky escape. I sentence him to one month's bard
labour in the House of Correction.

RUSSIAN COOLNESS.

It was amusing to watch the coolness of the Rus-
sians at work inside the large magazine at the north
side to-day. Some of them usually stood in the
doorway by the waterside to look out for the mortars.
" Bora" goes one, and the thick white smoke flies
upwards in a circling pillar, marked here and there
with whirling rings." T-wit ! twit ! twit !" the
bomb whistles aloft, the sound becoming fainter
and fainter as it leaves us, till it begins to grow on
the ear of the gentleman in grey, who is on the
watch at the other side ; he pops in his head, and
out come at his summons, like rabbits scuttling
from a ferret-haunted warren, a swarm of his com-
rades, just as the bomb, with a prodigious crash,
and knocking up a cloud of tiles, timber, stones,
and dirt, rushes through the roof, and bursts in-
side ; they are down on their faces in a moment,
and the bits fly over them, and strike the earth far
inland, or dash the water of the harbour into foam.
Then the " Rooskies" get up, and return placidly
to their work inside tll the next bomb comes dan-
gerously near. If it does not fall inside the
building, er. is not likely to slip down on them
through the roof, the fellows never stir out.

CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—Henry Light, a young
man, about 20 years of age, was brought up in custody,
charged with embezzling various sums of money belong-
ing to his employers, Messrs. Cooper and Co., cheese-
mongers, Stones-end, Borough.

Mr. Cooper stated that the prisoner was in their em-
ploy as carman, and it was his duty to deliver goods to
their private customers and receive the money, which, on
his return each day, he ought to pay over to witness.
For some time past several of the accounts were not paid
in by him as usual, and these circumstances led to some
suspicion about his honesty, consequently inquiries were
instituted among the customers, and a number of them
had paid him various sums varying from six shillings to
ten and twelve, which he had never accounted for. Wit-
ness accordingly called in a constable last evening when
he returned with his cart, and gave him into custody.
Maria Latch, servant to Mrs. Butler, of Walwortb,
said the prisoner left goods for the consumption of the
house and received the money on delivering the
invoice. Witness paid him on the Ist of September a
bill amounting to 6s. 3d., and on the 15th of the same
month another amounting to 6s. 3d., which he receipted
in her presence.

Mr. Cooper said those bills had never been paid in by
the prisoner.

The magistrate asked whether there were any other
witnesses.

Mr. Cooper replied that they were not in attendance
to-day, but there were a vast number of cases he could
bring against him on a future day. Considerable diffi-
culty existed in tracing out all his defalcations, as almost
in every case he had destroyed the original invoices, and
made out others himself.

The prisoner, who declined to say anything at this
stage of the proceedings, was remanded for a week.

posed of influential inhabitants have organised a proces-

of some 300 tar barrels on Blackheath.
THE MURDER AT BILSTON.—The inquest upon the
body of Joseph Russell, aged four years, who was mur-
dered by his mother at Bilston ova Monday last, has re-
sulted in the verdict of " Wilful Murder against Mary
Ann Russell." The unhappy woman still lives, but no
expectations are entertained of her recovery. She has
stated she was unconscious of what she was doing when
she committed the dreadful deed.
ALLEGED ATTEMPTED MURDER.---yesterday morning
the attention of the police was attracted by the noise of
a brawl in Ship-court, Tooley-street, when it was found
two men had been engaged in a desperate struggle, one
of whom, Daniel Geary, aged 40 years, was found in a
pool of blood. He was raised from the ground, and
speedily conveyed to Cornelius Ward, Guy's Hospital,
where he was examined by Mr. Penfold, house surgeon.
It was found that the unfortunate man had sustained an
extensive compound fracture of the skull. The instru-
ment that had been used by his assailant is an iron fen-
der.. From the severe nature of the wound little hopes
are entertained of his recovery. His assailant, however,
managed to escape.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
, quences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
.'hich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
_ ed, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
Cher class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
•articularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
toeir physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
tl,e health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled;
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
,rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without
rcurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
lne heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
nay be mitigated, hew the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
snd bow the evil and its consequences may he avoided, and above all,
f flit there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
lerangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
nte Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
iraetice in the treatment of these delicate eompiaints, which have
ryortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
emsirics, who inflict groat injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 24.—The Turkish Con-
tingent is at last actually moving, and a portion of
it has already sailed for Varna, whence it pro-
ceeds to Shumla, there to be stationed for the
present. The expectation is that the force will
there be made up to 20,000 men—some say even
to 25,000 ; but, considering the small sympathy
between our Ambassador and the Ottoman Go-
vernment, and the influences now understood to be
paramount, it must be deemed doubtful whether
such a completion of the projected corps d'armee
will be so immediate as the sanguine suppose.
Since the accession of Mehemet Ali Pacha to the
Cabinet English interest is clearly not in the as-
cendant. Through him Omer Pacha, who is
known to be strongly opposed to the formation of
the Anglo-Turkish force in question, does every-
thing in his power to prevent the scheme being
carried out. It is in great measure owing to the
Turkish General's intrigues that after much ex-
pense and many wasted months it is only at the
close of the fine season, when campaigning is about
to become impossible, that a scanty 8,000 men
begin to embark for Varna, to go into winter
quarters.

General Storks has succeeded in finding quarters
in this neighbourhood for the whole of the English
cavalry, which however is not yet expected. Within
the last few days about 6,000 French infantry have
Passed through the Bosphorus on their way to the
Crimea. On the other hand, there have been con-
siderable arrivals of French wounded from Sebas-
topol. The state of our hospitals presents no
novelty. A. number of invalids of various regiments
were
shipped on Saturday for England. None of
the recently wounded have come down here. It is
Possible that Miss Nightingale may proceed this
