TIM SCHOOLMASTER AND HIS CANE.--A respectable
woman, named spencer,complained to Mr Paget, that the
under-master of the Stepney Meeting School had severely
flogged her son, a rather delicate boy, 10 years old. The
man's name was M'Naught. He had severely punished
her boy seven weeks ago, but she overlooked that, believing
that if her boy would not learn his lessons he must be cor-
rected. A more severe punishment, coupled with the fact
that others had complained of APATaught, induced her to
appeal to the magistrate. In answer to the magistrate, as
to the nature of the school, she said that she paid 4d per
week, and that the school adjoined and was connected with
the Stepney Meeting Rouse, attended by a congregation of
independents.
Mr Paget—A congregation of Dissenters ?
Spencer--Yee, sir.
Mr paiet—Very good, let me see the boy's back.
Theais d
bared the back of the child and exhibited
we
aid blue mulls on it. Arld on the upper
a mother
an
black
part of his arm.
Mr Paget—What was that done with?

The boy—A cane, sir.
Mr Paget—A severe caning, certainly.
The boy having arranged his dress and covered his
back, the magistrate said no real injury had been done,
and advised the mother not to get her boy into the notion
that her boy had been very ill used. The boy's head and
loins had not been touched. If that had been done, be
would have interfered. He should not grant a summons
in this case. He hoped this Mr Isl`Naught would
exercise a little discretion in the administration of punish-
ment to boys of tender years.
The mother of the buy seemed a little disappointed at the
result of her application, and as she loft the court said if
her boy was ill-used again in a similar manner, she would
take the law into her own hands.

dumb widow Erurna Finney, whose husband, a tailor, and

HEALTH OF MR. JUSTICE WILLIAMS, -- No
further intelrgence had been received at the learned
judge's town residence this morning, so that it is supposed
that his lordship is no worse.
OLIVER GOLDSMITH IN TROUBLE.—At the Gal.
way Assizes last week Mr Whilton brought an
action against Oliver Goldsmith—who claims to be a de-
scendant of the poet—to recover the value of a diamond
ring, entrusted to the defendant for the purpose of having
its value ascertained in Dublin. The defendant, it seems,
placed it on his finger outside his glove, and before he had
proceeded tar on the road ho missed it, and was never able
to find it. It was valued by its owner at £lOO, but the
jury set a more moderate value on it, and awarded the
plaintiff £2O and costs. It appears that the modern Oliver
has inherited the careless habits of his ancestor.

MARK-LANE.

Fresh up to our ;;;;ket today the arrivals of home-
grown wheat, coastwise and by land carriage, were very
moderate, but most samples were received in excellent con-
dition. Both for red and white qualities, the trade was
dull, and prices had a downward tendency.
There was a fair supply of foreign wheat on the stands
The amount of business transacted in all descriptions was
small, at barely late rates.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, at about
stationary prices.
Barley—the supply of which, on sale, was moderate for

KARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.
Fresh up to our market today the arrivals of home-
grown wheat, coastwise and by land carriage, were very
moderate, but most samples were received in excellent con-
dition. Both for red and white qualities, the trade was
dull, and prices had a downward tendency.
There was a fair supply of foreign wheat on the stands
The amount of business transacted in all descriptions was
small, at hardly late rates.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, at about
stationary prices.
Barley the supply of which, on sale, was moderate for
the time of year—was steady at late quotations. Malt
changed hands to a moderate extent, at previous rates.
The supply of oats on sale was large, yet the demand
ruled somewhat active, at full prices.
Beans and peas ruled firm, and were quite as dear as on
Monday. The flour trade was quiet, en ,former terms.

WESTMINSTER.

A. DANGEROUS RESOLVE.--A very respectable old
woman in appearance came to Mr Arnold this morning,
and solicited protection because she went in great fear.

Mr Arnold Of whom have you to complain ?
Applicant —My own son, who behaves very wrongly. He
lives with me, and he don't knock me about as some sons do,
but he abuses me and brings a horrible woman home with
him to my house. I want you to keep her away.
Mr Arnold--I cannot interfere.
Applicant—Dear me, you don't say so I you must.
Mr Arnold—Must! That's all very well, but I can't.
Applicant—But lam sure you can, She is such a hor-
rible woman.
Mr Arnold—How horrible ?
Applicant—Why, she gees about the house quite—
without her clothes, your worship, and uses the most hor-
rible threats.
Mr Arnold—What are the threats ?

Applicant—She not only goes about as I have described,
but she says all manner of shocking things about me, and
declares she will set the house on fire.
A police sergeant stood forward and said that he did not
think that the old lady's fears. were without grounds. The
woman of whom shg comp.amed was a very low, indolent
person, not at all unlikely :o carry her threat of setting the
house on fire into execution. She e was seen in the house
in question,which was in Merrnaul's-yard, Chelsea, walking
about in a state of nudity.
Applicant added that she ha& struck her twice, and that
she was terrified to go in and out of the house while she was

there.
Mr. Arnold said that theperson complained of seemed to
be a most dangerous and violent person, and he should
therefore issue a warrant for her immediate apprehension.

KIDNAPPING BRITISH SUBJECTS IN THE
UNITED STATES.
Sir A. AGNEW asked the Under Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether her Majesty's Government had
received any reports from consular officers in the United
States of America, stating that British subjects had been
kidnapped, detained, or otherwise outraged with the object
of forcing them to serve as soldiers in the Federal army ?
Mr. LA.YARD said that reports had been received from
her Majesty's Consuls at New York, Boston, and Portland
to the effect that certain Irishmen had been kidnapped for the
Federal service in the United States. It appeared that
when they reached the United States they were imprisoned
for some time, and were plied with whisky, when they were
induced to enlist in the Federal army. Instruc-
tions had been sent to Lord Lyons, directing him to take
steps in reference to this matter, and to protect English sub-
jects in the United btates.
TOBACCO JUICE FOR SHEEP,
_ _

Lord J. BROWNE asked the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, whether, as tobacco juice for sheep dressing is
allowed to be made at Glasgow from tobacco free of duty,
he would allow the same privilege to be granted to parties
applying therefore in Dublin, Belfast, Cork, and the other
principal ports of Ireland.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
the privilege extended to all the ports in Great Britain and
Ireland.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A DISORDERLY GENTLEMAN.-Mr. William Dawson or
Mr. William Jones (the defendant gave both names), gen-
tleman of Nottingham-street, was charged before Mr. Knox
with being drunk and disorderly, and assaulting Rogers,
87 E.
Rogers said that hearing a cry of " murder" proceeding
from Great Portland-street, about three o'clock this morn-
ing he went to see the cause, when the defendant said that
he had been robbed of £2 15s. Seeing that the defendant
was drunk, and knowing that defendant had two hours be-
fore, when he had expostulated with him for causing a dis-
turbance, stated that he had no money about him to be
robbed of, he told him he had better leave the company he
was in and go home. The defendant, however, refused to
go, and struck him two or three blows on the breast.
Defendant said he had no questions to ask. He might
have taken too much wine having been dining out.
Mr. Knox said the constable had acted with great mode-
ration, having twice advised defendant to go away, As the
constable was not hurt he should order the defendant to
pay the fine of 10s„ or be committed for seven days in
default.

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.)
We 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. Peacocka, and Mr. S. Beaumont
continued the discussion, at the conclusion of which the
house went into a committee of supply pro fly-nil.
The Warehousing of British Spirits Bill was recom-
mitted.
The Life Annuities and Life Assurances Bill was read a

AUSTRIA AND MEXICO.

The Austrian Military Gazette announces that his
Majesty Vie 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.

BOW-STREET.

MURDEROUS ASSAULT I N DRURY- LANE.-JOhll 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, and 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 it some im-
portant vei 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, who was apparently suffering from
drunkenness, left the hospital, and on Monday
he came again, when another wound was discovered on the
left arm. The wounds 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 than, in about three-quarters of an
hour, tied the main 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. Vaughan—ln your opinion a fortnight would be the
earliest period, suppose all goes on wed, 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 rema- .ded him for 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 timepieces, were again placed
at the bar, but no further evidence being offered they were
fully committed for trial.

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 sal-I that Mr. Raw Mason 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.

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 head per week to a maximum of 8s for such a period
as they may 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
of 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-
scription of convicts alluded to longer than was actually
necessary, and he hoped their detention would be 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 wore facilities for effect-
ing a beneficial alteration in the existing system.
