BOW-STREET.

MURDEROUS ASSAULT IN DRURY- LANE.—John Collins,
a very powerful-looking man, was placed at the bar, on
remand, charged with violently assaulting Daniel Cadle.
It appeared that last Saturday night the prisoner was at
an oyster stall near King-street, Drury-lane, when the
complainant attempted to pass him, but he found he could
not do so until he had moved away from the oyster stall.
This the prisoner refused to do, and a fight ensued. Cadle
after a short scuffle cried out "I can't fight any more;
he's got something sharp," and immediately fell to the
ground. On raising him up blood was found
oozing rapidly from wounds abou t his neck.
He was first of all taken to a surgeon's, mad from there to
King's College Hospital.

Mr. Henry Lord gempthorn, house surgeon of King's
College Hospital, said Cadle was brought to the hospital on
the morning of the 3d of the present month. His head was
bandaged, and on the removal of which two wounds were
found, one at the back of the neck and the other a little
above the jaw on the right side of the face.
Mr. Vaughan—Wounds of what character?
~..Witness—They were incised wounds,
Mr. Vaughan—Both of them ?

Witness—Yes. The wound at the back of the neck was
a flesh wound, but the other bled profusely as if some im-
portant vek sel had been wounded. The wounds were
dressed, and the blood ceased to flow.

Mr. Vaughan—Constable, have you the knife ? (It was
produced.)

Witness—An instrument of that kind would in-
flict the injuries. After the bandages had been ap-
plied, the man, wimp was apparently suffering from
drunkenness, left the hospital, and on Monday
he came again, when another wound was discovered on the
left arra. The wound; were dressed on Tuesday, and,
being an out-patient, he left, but yesterday he came again,
with his wounds bleeding afresh. The principal one had
considerably enlarged, as an attempt was made to find the
injured artery, but it was so deep it could not be reached.
Professor Partridge then, in about three-quarters of an
hour, tied the naain. vessel of the neck, and he was put to
bed. He was at present sensible, but there was no means
of telling the result of the operation for a fortnight at the
earliest.

Mr.'sVauglian—ln your opinion a fortnight would be the
earliest period, suppose all goes on wo,l, before the wounded
man could attend and give evidence ?

Witness--Yes, certainly I should rather think it would
be a month.

Mr. Vaughan (to prisoner)—You have heard the charge,
what answer have you to it ?

Prisoner—The doctor at the hospital made the cut on
Cadle's arm.

The magistrate remanded him fer a week.
THE ROBBERY IN CHANCERY-LANE.—The two young
men charged with burglariously entering the shop of Mr.
Moaeley, clockmaKer, of Chancery-lane, and stealing from
thence a number of valuable time-pieces, were again placed
at the bar, but no further evidence being offered they were
fully committed for trial.

THE CONFERENCE.

Sir H. VERNEY asked the First Lord of the Treasury,
whether, at the Coaference about to assemble on the affsira
of Germany and Denmark, the interests of the inhabitants
of the Duchies of Holstein and Schleswig. will be repre-
sented and protected.
Lord PALMERSTON said that the interests of the
Duchies in question would be fully represented at the
coining Conference. In the first place there would be pre-
sent the representatives of their lawful sovereign,
in the next place there would be the representatives of
the two German Powers which took up srms to protect,
as it was understood the interest of the Duchies, and then
there would be the representatives of the German Diet,

AUSTRIA AND MEXICO.

The Austrian Military Gazette announces that his
Majesty the Emperor Francis Joseph has allowed
the formation of a corps of 6,000 volunteers and 300
sailors for the Empire of Mexico. This corps will
consist of three battalions of infantry, a regiment
of lancers, a company of pioneers, and a battery of
artillery. The officers will, at their request, be
taken from the Austrian army. The officers who
thus volunteer will enter the Mexican army with
one step in advance, and their re-entrance into the
Austrian army will be reserved to them for the term
of six years. After that period they will have lost
all claim to position in Austria. The number of
officers required is 260, and 200 have already volun
teered.

CONVICTS IN COUNTY GAOLS.

Mr. 0. GORE—Government having increased the allow-
ance towards the maintenance in county and borough gaols of
convicts sentenced to penal servitude from a maximum of
4s per 129 ad per week to a maximum of 8s for such a period
as they ma? be detained in prison, beyond two calendar
months from the time of conviction, asked the Secretary of
State for the Home Department, whether it was intended to
keep such convicts in county gaols for any time longer than
at present, as it will in Shropshire necessitate an increase
cf accommodation and in staff; there being no means of giv-
ing hard labour for any greater number than at present.
Sir G. GREY said it was not intended to detain the de-
m iption of convicts alluded to longer th.sn was actually
necessary, and he hoped their detention would only for a
short time. Some difficulty had arisen relative to the sub-
ject in consequence of the number of convictions which had
taken place for some years, but owing to the decrease that
had taken place in the number of sentences to penal servi-
tude during the present year, there were facilities for effect-
ing a beneficial alteration in the existing. system.

THAMES.

A FORGIVING PROSECUTOR.—SATAN AND THE SHIP-
WRIOHT.—Richard Willing, an old shipwright, was
brought before Mr. Paget charged with stealing 5 lbs. of
composition nails, valued at Is. per lb, the property of
Messrs Young, Son, and Company, the shipbuilders of
Limehouse.

Samuel Cole, storekeeper, stated that at five minutes be-
fore 5 o'clock last evening he received information that the
prisoner had got metal nails in his possession. He stoppea
the prisoner as he was leaving the yard, and discovered 5
lbs of metal nails wrapped in a handkerchief in his coat
pocket. The prisoner said, " The devil has got in me; it
is Satan himself who has done this." The witness added
that the prisoner was convicted and sentenced to one
month's •imprisonment for stealing nails, and that Mr
George Frederick Young, who was a kind master, took
the prisoner into his employ again when he came out of
prison, and had employed him ever since upon good
wages, but he would not be retained in the establishment
any longer. Mr. Young did not wish the prisoner to be
punished or sent to prison.
The prisoner said another party led him into crime before
he took the nails for another man, but yesterday Satan did
it all. Old Saran was in him. He was sorry for what he
had done, and sorry that he had offended a kind and indul-
gent master.

Mr. Paget said the prisoner was an ungrateful man, as
well as a thief, and had ill requited the kindness displayed
him by a respectable firm. Mr. Young had taken a very
merciful view of the case, end his feelings were very
honourable, but he (Mr, Paget) could not altogether com-
ply with the humane views of the prosecutor. The pro-
tection of society must be regarded. The prisoner had
committed a very serious offence, and he should sentence
him to one month's imprisonment and hard labour. The
sentence would have been more severe if Mr. Young had
not kindly interposed.
London, England, 1864-04-09

reasons to believe, without knowing the extent to which
lives were sacrificed, that a bombardment of Sonderborg did
take place, and that some of the citizens were killed. The
invasion of Danish territory was, in our opinion, unjust and
unjustifiable, and I am sorry to say that circumstances have
occurred in connection with the conduct of the German
troops during the invasion which are not in keeping with
the practice of civilised nations in modern times. (Cheers.)
W 3 have made an inquiry at Berlin, but we have not yet
got an answer—an inquiry, first, as to whether the thing
did take place; and next, by what authority and under
what orders the bombardment was carried out. Ido not
think the British Government can presume to dictate to
the Prussian army the manner in which they should con-
duct their operations, but there are opinions which men
may express as to conduct pursued in violation of ordinary
rule and humanity, though I hope we shall be allowed to
determine what we shall say when we get an answer from
the Government of Berlin. (Hear, bear.)
Mr. KINGLAKE noticed the conflict of views among
the Powers that were to meet in conference on the subject
of a basis. He looked upon the Conference, he said, as
mainly useful (if useful at all) as a means of enabling her
Majesty's Government to retreat from their position.
General PEEL remarked that this was not a question to
be discussed incidentally upon an inquiry, but on going into
a committee of supply.
Sir H. Verney, Mr. Peacocks, and Mr, S. Beaumont
continued the discussion, at the conclusion of which the
house went into a committee of supply pro forma.
The Warehousing of British Spirits Bill was recom-
mitted.
The Life Annuities and Life Assurances Bill was read a
second time, after a short explanation of its object, by the
CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER.
The remaining orders having been disposed of, the house
adjourned at half-past 12 o'clock.

TO TIIE EDITOR OF
TUE SUN."
SlR,—Like the " Admirer of Colour," who has appeared in
the " Spectator," and more recently in the " Suu," I can re-
member the time when country doctors and country squires
appeared in their blue coats and brass buttons, with gaiters or
top-boots, and " shor s"
coming down to the knees, which
are well pourtrayed in the caricatures published during the
Regency, and prior to the advent of
Even now, occasionally, "H. B."
we may see in London, especially
about the time of the May Meetings a Exeter Hall, a respect-
able pair of Hessians visible Within the precincts of the
Savoy.
But these antique reli_s, like the ideas of some of their

alll:s out of
in he manner of our of public view, although
an-
cestors is religiously preserved as a matter of Court etiquette,
in defiance of economy, of utility, and of good taste ; while
,he hideous and unhealthy hat—though nature does abhor
a vacuum —still reigns paramount, to the prejudice of our
comfort and of our convenience also.
Let us hope that H.R IL the Prince of Wales may be
pleased to effect an improvement in these matters connected
with daily coratOrt, and his example would soon be followed;
when these objectionable articles of wearing apparel would
give place to clothing which is more in accordance with com-
mon sense, health, and rational conduct —Yours obediently,

THE COURT HOBBY AT SOUTH KENSINGTON.—
The _Lady's News aper refers again to the signs which
betray the slow at certain secret progress of the great
design for centralising all our great national collections of
science and art at South Kensington. In furtherance of
this inquiry, we should like to have an explanation of a
little item which we notice in the Civil Service estimates
for the present year, under the head of "Public Works and
Buildings." It runs as follows :—" For land, &c., at
Kensington Gore, £14,000." What is this land for ? And
above all, what is included in the significant &c.?
MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE AT SCARBOROUGH.
—The dead body of Mr. Nathaniel Josephs was found on
the beach near Gristhorpe, about seven miles from Scar-
borough, on Thursday evening. The particulars of the
unfortunate gentleman's disappearance from Scarborough
on Tuesday last have been already given. The apprehen-
sions therein expressed have been painfully verified. An
inquest was held on view of the body before Mr. Jennings,
the East Riding coroner, at Gristhorpo yesterday, and a
verdict in accordance with the circumstances was returned.

THE BRADFORD RESERVOIRS.

Mr. FERRAND asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department, whether he had received Mr. Rawlin-
son's report on the state of the Bradford reservoirs ;
if so, whether he has reported them to be safe; if not,
which are recorded unsafe ; and, in the event of any of
them being unsafe, whether the Government would take
immediate steps to protect those persons whose lives are
endangered; and whether he would lay the report upon
the table of the house.

Sir G. GREY sail that Mr. Rawlinson had not yet
presented his report, and was at present engaged in his
other duties in Lancashire. He was of opinion that there
was no danger to be apprehended from any of the Bradford
reservoirs.

THE PROGRESS OF INTEMPERANCE.—Thomas Bayley,
a labourer, was charged before Mr Selfe with being drunk
and annoying Police-constable 363 B, while in the execu-
tionof his duty.

The constable stated that about 10 o'clock last night he
was on duty in Arabella-row, Pimlico, when the prisoner
came up to him and said, "Do you call yourself a police-
man? I will fight you." Witness requested him to go
away several times, and observed that if he did not he
should be compelled to take him to the station, and as he
refused to go witness took him into custody.
Selfe—Was he drunk ?
Witness—He was, your worship; and would insist on
fighting me.

Prisoner was fined 5s or seven days.
A PAIR OF DRUNEARAS.—Sarah Bailey and Mary Ann
Matthews, respectable-looking young women, were next
placed in front of the bar, charged with being drunk and
incapable.
B 265 stated that he was on duty about 10 o'clock the
previous evening in Pimlico. The prisoners were making
a great noise, and he went up to them and found they were
the worse for liquor. They were in front of a house, whore
they were causing a great disturbance. They were given
into custody by the landlord of the house.
As they had been similarly charged on a former occasion,
they were severally fined ss, or in default seven days.
A DRUNKEN TAILOR.—Henry Rogers, a spare, half-
starved looking man, was charged with detaining a coat
which had been given to him to make.

The prisoner admitted having had the coat, and said he
lost it one day while he was drunk. Bewould pay the value
of it.
Another claimant made application for another coat,
which the prisoner stated was loft by him at a publichouse
which he frequented. The applicant could have it by going
there.
The prisoner then left the court.

The Olympic Theatre his been transferred to a
joint-stock company, the capital of which is stated to be
£12,500, in 2,500 shares of £5 each. Only 92 shares had
been taken up to the 25th ultimo. The directors are the

[REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.]

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

ST. PETERSBURG, JUNE 4,

The Deutsche Petersburger Zeitung publishes a
semi-official article, stating that the recent acts of
Prince Couza were illegal, on account of their being
i❑ opposition to the Paris Convention of 1858, and
because ❑o modification of the Constitution of the
United Principalities can take place without the
consent of the Sultan.

SWITZERLAND.

BERNE, JUNE 4

The Federal Commissioners returned from the
Basle district, announce that the reports of hostile
feeling and danger to the public peace in that dis-
trict have been greatly exaggerated. The Go-
vernment having, for the present, made all the
necessary concessions to the people, there was
nothing to fear.

NEW ZEALAND.
(Per Telegraph from Suez).
MELBOURNE, APRIL 25.
Advices from New Zealand announce that two
severe engagements had occurred at Maungataw-
hiri and Tarachi. The natives were defeated at
the former place, which they abandoned, while at
the latter the English troops suffered a reverse.
The English loss, in both engagements, amounted
to 80 killed and wounded.
The probability of the close of the campaign
is still distant.

CHINA.
(Per Telegraph from Suez).

SHANGHAI, APRIL 22.

1113jor Gordon has defeated the rebels a
Waisoo, and expected that Nanking and Soochutu
would surrender shortly.

'SOUTHAMPTON, JUNE 4.

The chartered steamer Norman, Captain Johns,
with troops, from Gibraltar, has arrived in the river,
and is waiting orders from the Government.

This was a suit promoted by the plaintiff, Mr. Steven
Hart, a farmer residing at Wistell, near Ashford, in Kent,
to establish the will and codicil of Miss Elizabeth Chapman,
an aged lady, who died at Penton Court, near Ashford, on
the Bth of October, 1863. leaving property to the amount
of between £BOO and £OO a year. The will was executed
as far back as 03tober, 1842, and the codicil (which was
the only instrument in dispute) was made in 1861. The
defendant pleaded undue execution, undue influence, and
want of testamentary incapacity: By the will the de-
ceased made several bequests to her servants and friends,
but made no promise to her relatives, who were
remote, and by the codicil she left Mr Hart, who was her
bailiff and rented a farm from her, and other tenants, their
farms, on the condition of their paying her sister, Miss Ca-
therine Chapman, who was a lunatic, and to whom she had
been appointed guardian. £lO a year du-ing her life. It
was stated by counsel that Mr Horne, one of the deczasers
tenants, had been her bailiff; but although she remembered
him in Ler will, she became dissatisfied with his manage-
ment of her affairs, which she entrusted to the plaintiff in
1835. He placed them in a proper position. The deceased
was 73, and only ten days before her death transacted some
business.
The court pronounced in favour of the will.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Reg'strar Murray.)
IN RE STIFF.

This was a dividend meeting under the estate of this
bankrupt, formerly proprietor of the Morning Chronicle
newspaper.
It appears from the report of Messrs Hart Brothers and
Hayles, who had been appointed as accountants to the
estate, that the petition was issued on the 20th March,
1862, and the debts and liabilities amounted to £38,330 14s.
7d , and the assets were stated at £23,770 4s. 6d., leaving a
deficiency of £14,560, accounted for by 'the deficiency,
paper, stock and cash accounts.
A dividend of 7s. in the pound has already been paid,
and, after deducting for proofs admitted this day, it is ex-
pected there will be a further dividend of 6d. in the pound.

THE PROGRESS OF INTEMPERANCE.—Thomas Bayley,
a labourer, was charged before Mr Selfe with being drunk
and annoying Police-constable 363 B, while in the execu-
tion of his duty.

The constant) stated that about 10 o'clock last night he
was on duty in Arabella-row, Pimlico, when the prisoner
came up to him and said, "Do you call yourself a police-
man? I will fight you." Witness requested him to go
away several times, and observed that if he did not he
should be compelled to take him to the station, and as he
refused to go witness took him into custody.
Mr Selfe—Was he drunk ?
Witness—He was, your worship, and would insist on
fighting me.
Prisoner was fined 5s or seven days.

A PAIR OF DRUNKARDS.—Sarah Bailey and Mary Ann
Matthews, respectable-looking young women, were next
placed in front of the bar, charged with being drunk and
incapable,

B 265 stated tbat he was on duty about 10 o'clook the
previous evening in Pimlico. The prisoners were making
a great noise, and he went up to them and found they were
the worse for liquor. They were in front of a house, where
they were causing a great disturbance. They were given
into custody by the landlord of the house.

As they had been similarly charged on a former occasion,
they were severally fined ss, or in default seven days.

A DRUNKEN TAILOR.—IIenry Rogers, a spare, half-
starved looking man, was charged with detaining a coat
which had been given to him to make.
The prisoner admitted having had the coat, and said he
lost it one day while he was drunk, He would pay the value
of it. _

Another claimant made application for another coat,
which the prisoner stated was left by him at a publichouse,
which he frequented. The applicant could have it by going
there.
The prisoner then left the court.

The Olympic Theatre has been transferred to a
