THE SITN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 22, 1864.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A CRIPPLE BEGGING COMPANY.—Five men, named Bar-
ton, 11J1t, Carr, Dunbar, calling themselves colliers, and
Johnson, calling himself a stonemason, were charged before
Mr Knox with begging. _ .

The prisoners presented a rather singular appearance in
the dock, all being supported by crutches, Holt, Dunbar,
and Carr each having lost a leg, and Barton and Johnson
being also lame.

Woddup, one of the Mendicity Society's officers, proved
seeing the prisoners going about Park-street, Grosvenor-
square, all forming one company and begging. Two of the
prisoners were acting as spokesman, and telling a pitiful
tale of a sad accident which had befallen them in a col-

liery, while the others were collecting alms, but the
whole of the prisoners begged in turn. The prisoners then
surrounded a carriage ar.d begged of the occupants, and
Woddup then took them into custody.
In answer to Mr Knox, Woddup said Dunbar had been
convicted at the Bow •street Police Court, and the others
frequently warned by him.
Wcgraker, another officer of the Society, said he knew
Johnson as a practical beggar.
Mr Knox committed Dunbar and Johnson for a month
each, and the others for seven days each.

MINISTERIAL REPLIES.

Lord PALMERSTON—The noble lord the member for
Huntingdonshire (Lord R,,Montagu) asks under what autho-
rity a force of Royal Marines has been sent to Japan. Sir,
the force was sent in consequence of a decision of the Cabi•
net, who thought it was desirable to increase our military
defences at that station. With regard to the question of
the hon. member for Northamptonshire (Mr. Hunt), I have
to state I thought it my duty to avail myself of the earliest
moment after the report of the committee was in the hands
of members, to ask the house to do justice to my right hon.
friend the member for Caine (Mr. Lowe), and the depart-
ment to which he belonged, and to rescind the resolution
which it had passed. I apprehend, in all probability, there
may be quite as large an attendance of members on Mon-
day next as when the resolution was passed. There were not
200 members present then, and I think there will be at
least that number present on Monday. Under these cir-
cumstances I "Rnnot postpone h --o notice whack I have
given.

Lord HOTHAM regretted very much the decision which
the noble lord had come to, and hoped he would reconsider
it. He said that, considering the period of the session at
which they had arrived, and the smallness of the attend-
ance which might be expected on Monday evening. There
was this further objection to the course the noble viscount
proposed to take. There were two parties to this question;
there was the right hon. gentleman the member for Caine
(Mr Lowe), who was there in his place, and would probably
be there on Monday, and the noble lord the member for
Stamford, who was not in his place, and who might not be
there on Monday. Therefore he asked the noble lord not to
come to a conclusion upon a point of form which might be
erroneously thought to affect the facts of the case, and
might give rise to some misapprehension.
The subject then droppea, sad the motion for the ad-
journment of the house was withdrawn.

[ADVERTISEMENT ]—Holloway's Ointment and Pale''
Never neglect a Cola.—lt is painful to hear of the Es t%
fatal cases which commenced with the ordinary syntlit°'",
of a common cold. Holloway's ointment rubbed upon tN
back and chest prevents all disastrous consequences; 1
stet
soothes the inflamed lining of both throat and Chest. A.
rubbing in the ointment for'a few days, the pectoral irrittift
tion and the tightness of breathing diminish, the eynug..
becomes looser and less frequent, and the phlegm '6 e%eued
torated with less difficulty, till the lungs become freeht
respiration natural. All subject to take cold from a„
exposure to varying temperatures, will find H0110W6,,1
soothing ointment and purify ,ng pills an effective safegll6l—

The Blaze of the Franchise,
(From the Owl)

Mr. Gladstone has forwarded us the following
correspondence. His letter to us, explaining the
ipparent inconsistency of his two answers, is, we
regret, too long and involved for publication :
"94, Piccadilly, May 13, 1864.

"My dear Gladstone,—l have just read your
speech on Mr. Baines's Borough Franchise
What does it all mean ? Sev,ral persons have been
to see me this morning, and they tell me the town
is aghast and troubled at the extrirne views which
you have enunciated. It is certainly unfortunate.
We are very happy, prosperous, and tree in Eng.
land. Why not leave well alone ? Did you reculer
pour enieux sauter—or sauter pour mieux reculer ?
Your speech is susceptible of either explanation ; or
will you tell me that the fatal sentence about moral
right, in which the House of Commons and the
Press seem to see lurking an advocacy of universal
suffrage, was a philosophical axiom to be corrected
by the limits which you define ? If so, all I .can
say is, you have been too long a member of Parlia-
ment to think of talking philosophy to the House
of Commons.—Yours sincerely,

.4 PALMERSTON."

" 11, Carlton•bouse-terrace, May 13, 1864.
" My dear Lord Palmerston,--I have received
your note, and will be as frank with you as you are
with me. I was, as you know, determined to be
most careful about every word I said, and not to
commit myself or the Government to any measure
at all. I must flitter myself I succeeded admirably.
I confined myself to generalities, and, as I think
you will allow, if you examine them closely, to
generalities of the most Conservative character, I
said that if there was personal disqualification or
political danger the 'moral right' which each man
has to give his vote must be set aside. Nothing is
safer than this, because political danger may be de-
tected in any franchise by those who have wit and
power enough to give effect to their fears. I added
that I should be the last person to desire that the
working classes should acquire an overwhelming
preponderance in our political system, and I wound
up by saying that the select few wou d be admitted
as guardians and preservers of the British Consti-
tution.—Believe me, dear Lord Palmerston, yours
very truly, W. E. GLADSTONE."

ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

The-objects proposed to be effected by this company are-
1. To receive money at call or on deposit for fixed terms,
and the ordinary business of bankers.
2. To grant temporary or permanent loans on approved
public securities or private undertakings of undoubted merit
and known solidity.
3. To make advances on merchandise and dock and other
warrants, on title deeds of property in possession or rever-
sion for any temporary purpose, on contracts for carrying
out or the finishing of works, or any other securities where
their safety is unquestionable and the benefit to the com-
pany sufficiently advantageous.
4. The purchase and sale of the precious metals in all
their forms. The company will be enabled by its facilities
and connexions, to import and export bullion, and to deal
In foreign coins and bank notes on an extensive scale.
6. By means of the Paris branch it is proposed to un-
dertake the shipment of silver to the East via Marseilles,
which can be done at a considerable saving of expense and
time.

6. The business transacted by the issue of small bills and
letters of credit for the convenience of travellers and emi-
grants is incredible. Remittances from America to Ireland
alone amount to several millions sterling per annum. By
affording the same facilities to the English, German, and
French population of America it is confidently anticipated
that most profitable business can be done.
7. To negotiate approved foreign or inland bills, to trans-
mit funds in specie and in bills or otherwise, to any foreign
State, and to arrange purchases or sales of any British or
foreign securities at home or abroad.
8. To cash coupons, and to realise or undertake the
management of the dividends on loan or other securities.
Application for shares to be made to the secretary, at the
temporary offices of the company or the brokers.

TRANSATLANTIC STEAMERS.

Mr. SCULLY asked the President of the Board of Trade
when be expected that the returns as to transatlantic
steamers, ordered on the 14th of March last, would be laid
before the house.

Mr. M. GIBSON said that he had made inquiries, and
he believed that, although great delay had necessarily taken
place, the returns would be ready in abut a week.
Mr TORRENS asked the President of the Board of
Trade when it was probable that the works at Portpatrick
harbour, now being carried out under direction of the Go-
vernment, would be completed . And, in the event of much
further delay occurring in the completion of the works
whether the Government would take into consideration the
propriety of having the mails conveyed to and from the
North of Ireland via Stranraer and Larne.
Mr M. GIBSON said that the works in question were in
progress, but it was not probable that they would be com-
pleted during the present year. With regard to the second
question, it had not been considered advisable to adopt any
such temporary service as that alluded to.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Halroyd.)
THE MITRE ASSURANCE COMPANY.

To-day was appointed for the last examination under the
bankruptcy of this company, which is being wound up in
the Court of Chancery.
Mr Stronsburg, the managing director of the company,
but who has since become bankrupt, was in attendance,
but was not called upon to be examined.
Mr Sedgwick, for the assignees, said that no account had
yet been filed in this court, and the only assets received had
been distributed under the order for winding up. As an
adjournment must take place, the question was whether it
should be to a day fixed on sine die; an adjournment sine
die might leave it a great deal too open to the company to
account when they thought fit.

His Honour thought that an adjournment sine die, with
liberty to apply for a day to be named, would meet the cir-
cumstances.

Adjourned sine die accordingly.

lying partly on the pavement and partly in the road. He
turned round to see what it was, when the prisoner jumped
up and sprung upon him, and threw him on his back,
tearing his coat.
Mr. Yardley—l suppose you took him for a log of wood.
Complainant—No ; I thought it a black dog. (Laughter.)
A constable proved seeing the complainant and the pri-
soner struggling tegether on the ground. The prisoner
tore the complainant's coat, and on attempting to take the
prisoner into custody he tried to throw him (the constable).

Mr, Yardley—The prisoner is a great pest, and I shall
commit him for a month.
