LONDON, THURSDAY, OCT. 13, 1864.

A speech from Mr. GLADSTONE is certain at any
time to attract a large share of public attention,
and to be pretty generally welcomed at this dull
season as a theme worthy of attention and regard.
A master of oratory, such as the right hon. gentle-
man undoubtedly is, is sure to render any question
for the time being interesting and instructive. We
here meet him, however, not in the sterile arena of
politics, or the dry details of finance, but in the
more genial atmosphere of a public meeting, and
surrounded by an admiring audience, who eagerly
welcomed him to their neighbourhood. The right
boo. gentleman's discourse was long, but it was
listened to throughout with eager attention, and at
its conclusion he was warmly applauded. He dis-
claimed, in a very proper spirit, any individual
_claim on his own part to a particular share of merit
in having brought about the happy results which
they that day witnessed. The pioneers in the cause
of useful legislation deserved the first recognition,
and he brought to the work a secondary part to
prform. This sounded, of course, very well, but
no one present must have looked upon it as other
than a figure of speech when he talked of "secon-
dary abilities." The change that has taken place
in the relation of classes was happily commented
upon by the orator in this expressive passage :
" We have seen mistrust and alienation gradually
fading away like mists before the rising sun, and
we have seen throughout all parts of the country,
and throughout all classes of the community, senti-
ments of mutual confidence, respect, and Esteem
taking the place of that aliLa •
Wm and estrange-
ment." Very effective, also, was the manner in
which Mr. GLADSTONE touched upon the eact of
many of the changes that have been brought about
of late years among us, and which threatened at
first to become instruments of strife and discord,
E Meting at last but a partial good, and productive
of At least t vat harm. He said that all the modern

CANTERBURY HALL.
Triumphant Success of
PRINCE PERFUME AND PRINCESS BOUQUET.

Under the title of Prince Perfume and Princess Bouquet
is nightly to be seen at the Canterbury Hall a Magic Spectacle
far transcending in poetry of concept on, b auty and in-
veruity of arrangement, scenic effect, and brilliancy of light
and colour any former ap, lication (even at this Hall) of the
principle known as the OPTICAL ILLUSION. I n this last
collective disp ay of scenic art and of brilliant choreographic
and statuesque grouping will be found pictures surpassing
some of the greatest achievements of the Modern Extra-
vaganza—Sre "THE SHIPWRECK," "THE PHANTOM
COMBAI'," and " THE CURTAIN OF FIRE."
The "Illusive Sketch," which is the centre of these corns-
cat' on s, is by Mr. W. F. Vandervell ; the overture and inci-
i dental music by Willem Vandervell. _ _

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

The supply of beasts on sale here to-day was moderately
extensive. The quality of the stock, however, being infe-
rior, good and prime breeds changed hands at full prices,
but inferior qualities moved off slowly, at about Monday's
currency: the top price was 5s 4d per 81b. With sheep
the market was but moderately supplied. The mutton,
trade, however, was very slow, yet no change took place in
prices compared with Monday. The pr;mest Downs, &c.,
realised 5s 6d per 81b. The supply of calves on sale was
but moderate, yet the voal trade ruled less active, at 2d per
81b lees money than on Monday. Prime small pigs were
in steady demand, at full prices. Large hogs, however,
were dull. _ . . .

The further hearing of this extraordinary case was re-
sumed th's morning.
The Queen's Advocate, Mr Karslake; Q.C., Sergeant
Ballantine, and Mr Harmer were counsel for the petitioner,
and Mr Hawkins, Q.C,, and Mr Kenealy were for the
respondent.
A number of letters from the respondent to Mary Jane
Smith, the last witness examined on, Saturday, were put
in and read. In some of these he addressed her as "My
dear Jewess," and all of them were assurances of
great affection. One of them, which bore the post
mark of July 16, 1863, arranged the meeting in London to
go to Blackheath, to which the witness referred in her
evidence, and in must of them were violent abuses against
another servant, of the name ct Jane Newport, who he ac-
cused as a spy upon him, and warning her to avoid that
embodiment of evil as she would the plague, He also
stated that.in order to prevent her letters to him being in •
tercepted or falling into other hands, he had got a private
letter bag of his own in which his letters were brought from
the post-office, but although the bag wa3 locked he was
even then quite sure that the bag would not fall into other
hands.

The Rev. Mr Knight was the first witness examined.
His evidence went to prove that Mrs Chetwynd had often
came to his house in consequence of the ill-usage of her
husband. He also proved the handwriting of several of the
letters above mentioned.

In cross-examination by Mr Hawkins, he said he was a
frequent visitor, but always by the invitation of Mr Chet-
wynd, He had seen Mr Mathews at Longdon Hall, but
only once. He told Mrs Chetwynd that her husband had
complained of her conduct toward Mr Mathews. Mrs
Chetwynd replied that she continued her inti-
macy with Mr Mathews with the consent of her
husband, but that she would give it up altogether if he
wished it. He did not know the handwriting of Mr
Mathews. Mr Chetwynd showed him a letter that Mathews
had written to his wife. He complained of the style, and
said it was a very improper sort of letter to be sent by a
gentleman to a man's wife.
The Judge ordinary—What sort of style was it ?
Witness—l could hardly describe it.
Thr Judge Ordinary—lt is very important that the jury
should know what you mean by improper ?
Witness—lt was a kind of style I did not like.
The Judge Ordinary--That may be, but what do you
mean by the word " improper." Was it indelicate ?

Witness—No.
The Judge Ordinary—Well, if it was not so what was it ?
Was it a style you disliked or was it too intimate ?

Witness—Yes, it was in too intimate a style.
The Judge Ordinary—Was there any undue familiarity
in it?

Witness—No, certainly not.
Mr Hawkins—Was it a sort of letter to address to another
man's wife ?

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

James Cassey, a blind discharged soldier, wearing uni-
form, and having two or three medals Oa his breast, was
charged before Mr Tyrwhitt with begging.
A constable said that about nine o'clock the previous
evening he saw the prisoner standing in Tottenham-court-
road, with a card on his breast. He saw him receive
money twice, and then took him into custody.
Mr Tyrwhitt asked whether the prisoner sold anything ?
The constable said he did not, but the prisoner said he
was selling almanacks.
In ans ser to Mr Tyrwhitt the constable said the prisoner
was blind.

The card was handed to the magistrate, and had printed
on it the following:—

" Please to buy of a poor sddier.

" I lost my precious sight in India, was discharged with
a small pension for a short period. I have a wife and four
children.

4, When war is at hand and death it nigh,
For God and soldier is all the cry,
Bat when war is over and all things righted,
God's forgotten and the soldier slighted,"

Mr Tyrwhitt said he would discharge the man. In no
country in the woild was a soldier treated as in this. They
had a small pension tor a time, and werethen kicked out.
The man, it is only fair to state, has received at different
times great assistance from this court.

COVICTION OF A CHANDLER'S SIDP-KEEPER FOR
SELLING TABLE-BEER WITHOUT A LICENSE.—Mrs
Amelia Guest, the keeper of a chandler's shop in Tower-
street, St. Martin's-lane, appeared for n Tyrwhitt to an-
swer the complaint of Inspector Avery,of the F division,
That not being duly licensed to sell bets", you did unlaw-
fully retail table-beer in your house."
Inspector West, F division, proved visiting the defend-
ant's shop at a quarter past 11 on Sunday morning, the 4th
inst., and seeing a female drinking sorsa table beer with
which she had:just been served. He spok to the defendant,
who had been cautioned several times Itfore, and she said
it should not occur again.
Mr Tyrwhitt told the defendant thati she would set up
to sell beer, being only a chandler shopkeeper, she must
suffer fur it. It was rather too bad that a chandler shop-
keeper should sell beer, especially at a tine when licensed
victuallers, who were at great expt.nses for their licenses,
were not allowed to do so.
The defendant was fined 4ns and costs.

PALACE AND BURLINGTON HOTELS.

A general meeting of this company was held yesterday at
the Palace Hotel, Pimlico—Mr G. Ryder in the chair.
The secretary read the report, which stated ghat the
cap: fixed at £l2ooow.trir'ided
shares of £2O each. 'Thu whole of the shares had been
taken up, and payments made upon them to the extent
of £74,000. The interest in the Palace Hotel, Pimlico,
and the Burlington Hotel, Cork-street, including the stock
in trade, leases, &c , had been purchased for £95,000,
of which amount £72,000 had already been paid, leaving
£23,000 still due. The company .took possession of the
hotela on the Ist of June last, and the total receipts for the
half-year ending the 30th of November had been £19,429,
and the expenditure £15,622, leaving a balance of £3,807,
from which the directors recommend a dividend at the rate
of 10 per cent, per annum, which would absorb £3,615,
and leave £192 for the next account.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption :of the report,
said the proprietors must with the directors feel highly sa-
tisfied with the result of the business for the past six months.
A great deal of the strcess of the hotels would depend upon
the support given by the shareholders, but the directors had
every confidence in the prospects of the company. The
accounts of the two hotels were kept quite separate.
Mr DAVISON seconded the adoption of the report, which
was unanimously agreed to, and the dividend declared as

recommended.
Mr G. Lomas was then elected an aniitor of the com-
pany, and a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the
proceedings.

THE WEATHER IN SCOTLAND.--The weather on
Monday morning changed to a fresh, which continued dur-
ing the early part of the day, with occasional drizzling rain.
In the afternoon the atmosphere cleared, and towards the
evening a keen frost set in, which continued till early this
morning. Our correspondents in the hill districts report
that a severe snowstorm had commenced. There was a
heavy fall of snow in Crieff on Monday, which, however,
did not remain on the ground. In the neighbourhood of
Auchtorarder the storm was more severe. Snow has been
falling from Saturday evening till Monday afternoon, when
the ground was covered to a depth of seven inches. The
hill roads are stated to be quite impassable on account of
the drifts. Further north the storm was not so severe. On
the Borders there has also been a heavy fall of snow. Our
Selkirk correspondent, writing on Monday afternoon, states
that snow has been falling in that neighbourhood since
Sunday evening, and that the ground is covered to a depth
of about seven inches.—Scotsman.

A Local Committee has been formed in the
parishes of St. George and St, James's, 'Westminster,
under the presidency of the Duke of Marlborough, for the
purpose of strengthening end extending the efforts that are
being made to promote the education of the employes en-
gaged in West-end establishments. A public meeting to
further this object has been convened for Thursday next, in
the School of Mines, J myn-street. The chairman of the
Council of the Sccie'y of Arts will preside.

ExPOSING GOODS FOR SALE OUTSIDE SHOPS.—Mary
Ann Spencer, a woman who looked in excellent case, who
is believed to be a professional Wet, and who refused to
give her name and address, was brought up on remand
before Mr Paget charged with stealing a roll of flannel,
measuring about 30 yards, and valued at 43F, the property
of Martha Parkhouse, draper, of t 55, High-street, Poplar.
On the first examination of the prisoner on Saturday, Mr
Partridge, who then presided, said it was highly reprehen.
Bible for shopkeepers to expose goods for sale outside theii
shops and lead people into temptation.
Mr Bowdler, the second clerk, said that similar observa-
tions had been made before on the occasion of a robbery of
goods from outside the shop of tp prosecutrix, and tht.t
Mr Paget had condemned the prs4ice very severely, and
said, when the robberies were committed, people who put
their goods outside their shops, were guilty of half the
offence.

It appeared from the evidence of Mr Robert Thos. Rose,
assistant to Mrs Paikhouse, that there was a roll of flannel
" outside the door" for sale at half-past 1 o'clock on Friday
night. In consequence of information he went to a public-
house, 100 yards from the shop, and found the prisoner there
and the roll of flannel, which he had previously missed,
behind the door. He said to the prisoner, "What do you
want with the flannel," to which the made no reply. He
then gave her iLto custody.
George Sims, of Nc. 254, High-street, Poplar, said he was
assistant to a pawnbroker. He saw the prisoner run by his
master's door with something concealed under her shawl.
He followed her, and saw her go into the Royal Mason
public-house.
George Darnell, 2, Wade's-place, Poplar, saw the pri-
sowr take the flannel and Put it under her shawl. She
walked away with it towards the Royal Mason.
The prisoner, on being called en for her defence, said"l have nothing at all to say,"
Mr Paget committed the prisoner for trial.
