TIIE VEXATIOUS BEER BILL.

went to the back door, with no better success.
there a milkman went up to the door, and told the officer
he wanted some gin, but on the officer telling him that he
could sot have any he went away. The officer then re-
turned to the front door, and on looking through the
keyhole he observed the landlord at the top of the steps,
and called out to him. The landlord then let him, and in
reply to their inquiries said he had four travellers from
Bradford in a room up stairs. The officers proceeded up
stairs, and in one of the rooms they found two men and
two women with beer before them, and some empty
glasses, which had contained spirits. They first said they
were travellers, and afterwards, on the suggestion of the
officers, they admitted they were pleasure seekers.
Mr. Naylor submitted to the bench that there was no
offence proved, as the officers had not seen the landlord
sell any beer or spirits, but if their worships overruled
him on that point, he maintained that the persons found
in the house of the defendant were bona fide travellers.
He now that a learned alderman bad laid it down that
pleasure seekers were not travellere, but he felt convinced
that the Legislature never intended to say that persons
travelling, say fr W
etherby or Bradford to Leeds, for
the beriefit of their health), or their enjoyment, were
not travellers, and he there,ore contended that the par-
ties in questioa were travellers within the intuthiug of

The Mayor said the bench were quite of opinion that
ti" Case was,-proved, and as there was no evidence to
show that the. parties were travellers, they should fine

mically-prepared White India-rubber in the construction of Artificial
Teeth, Gums, and Palates.—Mr. EPHRAIM MOSELY, Surgeon-
Dentist, 61, Grosvenor-street, Grosvenor-square, Sole Inventor and
Patentee.--A. new, original, and invaluable invention, corsisting in
the adaptation, with the most absolute perfection and success, of
CHEMICA LLy-PREPA I? E D WHITE INDIA-RUBBER as a lining
to the ordinary gold or bone frame. The extraordinary results of
this application may be briefly noted in a few of their most promi-
nent features, as the following :—All sharp edges are avoided ; no
springs, wires, or fastenings are required ; a greater increased free-
dom of suction is supplied ; a natural elasticity hitherto wholly un-
attainable: and a fit, perfected with the most unerring accuracy, are
secured, while from the softness and flexibility of the agent em-
ployed, the greatest support is given to the adjoining teeth when
loose, or rendered tender by the absorption of the gums. The acids
of the mouth exert so agency on the chemically-prepared White
India-rubber, and as it is anon-conductor, fluids of any temperature
may with thorough comfort be Imbibed and retained in the mouth,
all unpleasantness of smell or tape being at the same time wholly
provided against by the peculiar Ratn re of its preparation.

THE :MILITIA.

The following circular has been issued from the War.
office, dated December 23, 1854 :
" Sir,—With reference to the circular from this de-
partment of the 14th inst., K (Militia) 42, and the Adju-
tant-General's memorandum of the 2d inst. enclosed therein
relative to the volunteering of meta of be regiment under
your command to the cavalry, Foot Guards, infantry of
the line, and ordnance corps, I have the honour to acquaint
you that, although the Marines aro not mentioned therein,
discharges shoeld not be refused to men preferring to trans-
fer their services to that corps.—l have the honour to be,
Sir, your obedient servant,
"SIDNEY HERBERT.
" Officer Commanding Regiment of Militia."
The total number of Militia regiments now out em-
bodied for permanent duty in the United Kingdom is
54 ; during the present week six more will be embodied,
principally Irish regiments, thus increasing the total
number to GO.

The permanent staff of the Anglesea Militia is now
being formed with all expedition.
The Hertfordshire Militia assembled at Hatfield on
Wednesday last. After receiving their clothing, accou-
trements, &c., they were marched off to Hertford, under
the command of Colonel the Marquis of Salisbury,
K.G., there to be stationed for permanent duty—an ar-
rangement which has been much facilitated by the pre-
vious establishment of as excellent hospital by the Go-
vernment. This regiment has, under the arrangements
adopted by its noble colonel, been three times recruited
beyond its establishment. It has given betwee• ZOO and
400 men to the line siecnits formatinn, 120 of whom have
enlisted since May last. The day after their arrival at
Hertford the Horse Guards Circular of the 2d of De-
cember was explained to the men on parade by the Mar-
quis of Salisbury, when 36 men volunteered for the line.
The number at present at head-quarters, including re-
eroits, is 600 rank' and - -
The Royal Cornwall and Devon Miners Militia corps
has received orders to assemble at Falmouth for perma-
nent duty on the 15th of January. The deficiency of
number which has been caused by volunteering into re-
giments of the line will, it is expected, be soon made
up, inasmuch as several of the county gentlemen have
liberally offered an extra bounty of 21. each for recruits,
in addition to the 61. per man offered Toy the Govern-
ment.

In pursuance of instructions from the Horse Guards,
the Second or Light Infantry Regiment of King's Own
Staffordshire Militia were assembled on parade at Staf-
ford on Friday, and were addressed by their !major (in
the temporary absence of the lieutenant-colonel). After
the major had finished, 35 volunteers fell cut. They re-
spectively selected to serve in the 4th, 17th, 69th, 80th,
88th, and the Royal Marines. The above number is
exclusive of 27 men who had during the week volun-
teered into the Grenadier Glite.rds.

clesfield has despatched 700 " housewives," each con-
taining 12 strong needles of two sizes, 12 metal buttons
of two sizes, a large skein of strong black thread, and

been decided agreeably to his views. His resig-

the most considerable bankers in Madrid, has been

THE WAR IN ASIA.

A letter from Erzeroum, of Nov. 29, says--"Ths
Russian general at Bayazid has occupied the villages
of Diadin, titehkilisda, and Klisse, and has ortltn-ed
a column of skirmishers on Kalhisman. Scarcely
had this movement commenced when four Ottoman
battalions, two squadrons of cavalry, and six pieces
of light artillery, wero directed on Top-rak-kaich.
It appears that the Russians, knowing that the
34,Iuckir Zarif Moustapha Pacha, the Chief of the
Stall Kurchid. Pasha, and all the superior Euro-
pean officers, had quitted the army of Kars, and
returned to Constantinople ; and also informed
of the absence of the new Muchir Ismail Pacha,
who, it is said, was detained iu the capital by an
attack of opthahnirt, and hoping that the Turkish
army, being deprived of its general-in-chief and in-
completely officered, would find a difficulty in re-
sisting, determined to take the Turkish army of
Kars in flank, while the Russian army from Alex-
andropol should attack it in front. If the corps
detached to Toprak can stop the Russians from
Bayazid and defeat them, the result will be im-
mense for the arms of the Sultan, but if not, and
they should be compelled to retreat on Erzeroum,
the Turkish army of Kars will bo in a very critical
position, The report which was current of Cliefte-
kil having been taken by the Russo-Georgians and
afterwards retaken by the Turks is unfounded.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

By letters from thePrincip;h7ties;; learn. that
Brailow is now surrounded by a treble line of re-
doubts. In the outer line there are five, in the se-
cond four, and in the third three redoubts. Omer
Pasha's wife was to have followed her lord and
master to Constantinople, but on her way from
Bucharest to the Danube the carriage in which she
was travelling overturned, and she insisted on re-
turning to the Wallachian capital. A batch of
press-laws has just been published for the benefit of
the Wallachians.

From the. Ist of January, 1855, the Austrian
Army of Occupation in Moldavia and Wallachia
will be paid in silver in zwanzigers instead of bank-
notes. This regulation cannot but give great satis-

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, DEC. 30.—Wait until the belligerents
are exhausted before you interfere actively. Hus-
band your resources until France and England have
bled to the last man, and paid to the last penny.
Then advance, and throw your sword and dollars
into the Russian balance. That is the proper policy
for Prussia. If she adhere to this system she will
render herself mistress of the position, and dictate
laws to the West. Such is the advice and intention
of the dominast party. This has been no secret
during the last 12 months. The pleasant scheme
never was so openly proclaimed, however, as wthiin
the last few days by Professor Lee, of Halle, and
cited by the Russian organ from that worthy peda-
gogue's weekly paper
'The Crimea,* exclaims the Russian organ, or the
professor, it matters not which, "is like to Hougou-
moat, La Hays Sainte, , and Belle Alliance, and it
may easily happen, that the cry of The Prussians
are coming !' may decide ibz matter—provided always
they do not arrive too lopn—but wait for the
evening, 'and are really those tvho have the last drums
and last shillings. Then they may drive whole bands
of French before them,' as they did at La Belle Alliance,
with the n3ere rattle of their drums. But, for God's
sake, not too eiiett. Even as the German Imperial
Crown lay on the pavement of Berlin—not the paper
crown, but.the real one----when nothing was wanting
but to pick it up and put it on without opposition, orqo
stand still and look 'on tranquilly; so the attributes of
the highest political majesty in Europe lay now on the
open field, and, all depends on not seizing upon them
too soon—upon not embarrassing ourselves too soon
with the magnet."
And this species of pleasant self-conceit and in-
fallibility, this empty effort at political roguery, is
put forth as a grand stroke of polity befitting a
great European Power. But this "not too sows"
project may be nipped in the bud before the pro-
fessor and other German subjects of his Caesarian
Majesty are wide awake. People may come " too
late" as well as " too soon 1"

DEATH OF GENERAL ADAMS.

We deeply regret to announce the death of Major
General Henry William Adams, C. 8., which took place
on the 19th, at Scutari, from the effects of the wounds
which he received in the battle of Inkerman on the
Bth of November. General Adams had been raised
to his rank only on the 12th of Dscember, for
the distinguished gallantry which ho displayed
throughout the operations in the Crimea while
in command of the brigade of the Second Divi-
sion, composed of the 41st, 47th, and 49th Regiments,
from the last-named of which he was taken to fill the
poet of Brigadier-General. General Adams entered the
service in 1823, and attained the rank of lieutenant.
colonel in 1840 ; at that time he was in the 18th Royal
Irish, which distinguished regiment he commanded
through the operations in China including the first cap-
ture of Chusan, the storming of the heights above Can-
ton, the capture of Amoy, the second capture of Chusin,
the storming of the fortified heights of Chinhae, and the
capture of Ningpo. The 49th Regiment, which was
likewise serving in these operations, was shortly after-
wards returning to England, and Lieutenant-Colonel
Adams exchanged into it. He has since been with his
regiment in this country, Ireland, and the Mediterra-
nean. Major-General Adams being on the supernume-
rary list, his death will not tend to cause a vacancy on
the general officers' list.

According to the returns made up to yesterday at the
Admiralty, her Majesty has 142 vessels of war propelled
by steam power afloat and in commission, and 104 sail-
ing ships —total, 246.

-Several merchant ships riding in Sheerness harbour
drove during yesterday's gale, and fears are entertained
that some of them have hooked her Majesty's moorings,
which are laid south-east and north-west, from 80 to 90
fathoms from the ceutre bridles, by which the llue•of•

THE AMPHION;

Orders arrived at Sheerness yesterday for the crew of
the Anophion screw steam-frigate to be paid down ; but,
in consequence of a heavy gale of wind blowing from
north-west, causing a heavy cross sea in the harbour
early in the day, the foul weather signal was made from
the flagship, prohibiting all boats from leaving their
ships. She will not in consequence be paid until to-day
(weather permitting). One six-oared cutter, belonging
to one of the ships under the pendant, which left the
ship before the signal was made, was blown on shore on
the Ordnance ramparts near the pier, and broken up ;
fortunately the crew all escaped.

THE WAR IN ASIA.

A letter from Erzeroum, of Nov. 29, says—" The
Russian general at Bayazid has occupied the villages
of Diadin, Utohkilisda, and Klisse, and has ordered

a column of skirmishers on Kalhisman. Scarcely
had this movement commenced when four Ottoman
battalions, two squadrons of cavalry, and six pieces
of light artillery, were directed of Top-rak-kaleh.
It appears that the Russians, knowing that the
Muchir Zarif Moustapha Pacha, the Chief of the
Stall Kurchid Pasha, and all the superior Euro-
pean officers, had quitted the army of Kars, and
returned to Constantinople • and also informed
of the absence of the now Mucliir Ismail Pacha,
who, it is said, was detained in the capital by an
attack of opthalmia, and hoping that the Turkish
army, being deprived of its general-in-chief and in-
completely officered, would find a difficulty in re-
sisting, determined to take the Turkish army of
Kars in flank, while the Russian army from Alex-
andropol should attack it in front. If the corps
detached to Toprak can stop the Russians from
Bayazid and defeat them, the result will be im-
mense for the arms of the Sultan, but if not, and
they should be compelled to retreat on Erzeroum,
the Turkish army of Kars will be in a very critical
position. The report which was current of Chefte-
kil having been taken by the Russo-Georgians and
afterwards retaken by the Turks is unfounded.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT- 47111 S DAY.

OLD COURT.
(Before the Recorder.)

Henry Kirkby, 45, artilleryman, xv: indicted for
stealing some pieces of lead and brass, I kw property of
our sovereign lady the Queen.

Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Sleigh prosecu tnd, and Mr.
Robinson defended.

It appeared that the prisoner, who be re a very high
character in the regiment, had been ( tigaged in the
proofing department of the Arsenal at ' Woolwich, and
the property stolen was a telescope stand rtade of brass,
and two pieces of lead used for covering t tie touch holes
of the pieces of ordnance. The propert. r, which bore
the usual Government mark much obliter. it• 3d, had been
upon two occasions offered by the prisone r for sale to a
store dealer in Woolwich. Upon the occa e .on of the pri-
soner's second visit, the sure dealer having sc ime suspicion
detained the property, while he brought a sic I gave notice
to the police. The prisoner, wh* did no t deny having
taken the property to the dealers, gave an . u nsatisfactory
account about it, etatin that au officer • for whom he
had been doing some work had given it t him.

Mr. Robinson, at some length, argue I I he itnproba-
bility of a man bearing so high a charact cr as prisoner
committing such an offence. He had be in 23 years in
the service, and would shortly have his I tal f-pay, which
he would forfeit all claim to if convicted of this offence.
It was most likely that he did not know th. At the property
did belong to the Government, the m at. Ica being so
effaced, and might have received the thin gs , which were
of but slight value, as be had stated.

Several officers of the regiment gave r fti loner a high
character.

The jury found prisoner guilty, reoomr ne; iding him to
mercy on account of his character.
The Recorder said he would take time to consider the
sentence.

Thomas Bailey, 26, tailor, was indic t 3d for cutting
and wounding Henry liirnbly, with inten : t.

It appeared that the prosecutor, who br rs the appear-
ance of a low-class pugilist, was upon thw s night of the
20th of November at the King's Arms , Market-hill,
Shadwell, drinking with the prisoner, a) ac 1 that the pro-
secutor had attacked him first by thr ei ring some ale
in his face, and then struck him several tir ni ,s, upon which
prisoner drew his knife and stabbed hi) n in the lower
part of the belly, from the effacts of w'fii oh he was con-
fined to his bed for three weeks in the h, as. pital.
The jury found the prisoner guil'w of unlawfully
wounding.

The Recorder asked the prisoner who I e was ?

The prisoner said an American by bb •t: ►h, and had bat
just returned from Memel with a cargo of ' Russian tallow;
but since ho had been in prison his ship had sailed.
The Coroner respited the sentence un tit next session.
