MARLBOROUGH- STREET.

SHOCKING CONDITION OP OMNIBUS HORSES.—William
Poulteney, the driver of omnibus 7,517, the property of Mr
John Bacon, of No. 41, Ledbury-road, Bayswater, was
charged before Mr Tyrwhitt, by the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with cruelly ill-treating
and torturing two horses by working them in an unfit state
in an omnibus.

The horses—or, more properly, the remains of horses—
were brought to the front of the court for the magistrate's
inspection, and they presented a pitiable spectacle.
Pinkerford, one of the officers of the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, proved seeing the de-
fendant driving two horses attached to an omnibus near the
Tottenham-court-road last night about nine o'clock. The
horses seemed very fatigued, and the defendant was whip•
ping them. He stopped the horses, and on examining them
the off side'horse had a large wound on the near side hock,
which was badly swollen. The other horse had one of its
hoofs slit. On telling the defendant the horses were unfit
for work, he said he could not help it, and that if he had
not brought them out some one else would have done so.

Mr Arthur Cherry, the Government veterinary surgeon,
deposed that one of the horses had a large wound on the
near hock joint, and a sore on the outside of the arm of the
near foreleg. The other had disease of the foot. which was
incurable, and a number of sores about it. Both horses
ware unfit for work of any kind, and would not work at all
without being whipped.
The defendant said ho had never driven a better pair of
horses.
Mr Tyrwhitt said he thought the defendant should not
be proceeded against alone. A summons ought to be taken
out against the owner of the horses. He would inform the
defendant that he was liable to be sent to prism for three
months, and he meant that observation also to apply to the
proprietor. He would take the defendant's own recognis-
ance to appear on Tuesday, on which day the sum.nons
against the owner would be returnable, and in the meantime
the horses could be watched to see they were nct worked
again.

Lire service of the Einpiror ct China—which he thought
was a course entirely opposed to ali principles of interna-
tional law- He saw, however, in a paper published the ether
day, which was devoted to giving news from China and
Japan, that arrangements had been made for training Chi-
nese soldiers under British officers. Now, it appeared to him
that if we allowed this to be done, if we supplied the Impe-
rial Government with the means of overcoming their ene-
mies by giving them men trained under British officers that
wo should be jast as much responsible as if we allowed these
officers to take service in the imperial array. He hoped the
Government of this country would be induced to give up
all interference in Chinn, and that they would abandon a
system whi,h, he believed, involved us in very serious re-
sponsibilities, and which he was sure sooner or later, if it
was persevered in, would compel us to take icon active.
steps in order to bring to an end those disasters which that
policy would inevitably bring upon the Chinese.
London, England, 1864-09-24

another frequent source of evil. An inquest was
held at the beginning of the week on a little boy
who had obtained some rock powder from some
miners, and who went into a blacksmith's shop
with it in his pocket. A spark ignited the powder
with a fatal result. We are glad to find the
magistrates are obdurate in imposing the full
penalty in cases of sending combustible materials
by rail improperly guarded. In such cases we must
not look to the intention of the sender, who is
probably innocent, but to the frightful risk incurred.
Want of thought in instances like this may result
i❑ such direful calamities that no mercy should be
shown to the heedless offender. If all persons in
authority would enforce a strict observance of a
few practical cautions on these below them, we
should hear of fewer houses being desolated by
alarming and fatal catastrophes.

LONDON, SATURDAY, SEPT. 24, 1864.

We are glad to find the question of long leases
:a being brought under general discussion. It has,
of course, been never lift entirely in abeyanc, but
of late it has as frequently come u.p in speeches,
addresses, and meetings of an agricultural cha-
racter, that it is evident it is occupying
the minds
o?farmers and landowners to a great ix tent. At a
Wutzcstershire meeting the other (ley, at Which
Sic JouN rAKISGTON presided, the right hon.
baronet ep.ae at some length un the subject, and
urged strongly upon his hearers the advantages el
the long lease system. It was the only means he
declared. of giving farmers that security to which
they were entitled before expending a large
smount of capital on their farms. This view at
once epproves itself to common sense, and to all the
principles on which the business of every day life
is carried on. No rational man expends his capital
in pushing a trade or carrying out a speculation
without some security that he will have, at least,
a share in the profits, but the farmer is expected
to make his outlay without tiny such guarantee.
In commercial life, the man who so acted would be
called a rash and improvident speculator, whereas

WESTMINSTER.

LAMENTABLY DEFECTIVE STATE OF THE LINV.-A
young man, of very respectable appearance, solicited the
magistrate's advice under the following circumstances:—
Applicant said that he had to complain of the bite of a
mad dog, and the damage he had sustained in consequence,
He went into a shop yesterday in Westminster to inquire
the price of an article there for sale, and as he was leav-
ing the house a dog rushed out from the rear of the
premises, flew at him, and bit him on the leg.
Mr Solfe—Where were you at the time he bit you ?

Applicant—Just leaving the door step in the street
when he seized me by the leg. I am well known at the
shop. I have bought several things there, and I think it
is a very bad thing to be bit by a dog in this way.
Mr Selfe—la be in the habit of biting mankind or
womankind ?

Applicant—l don't know. I believe so. The doctor
that I went to said he had no doubt it was the same dog
that had bit some other people.
Mr Selfe—Can you prove that P
Applicant—No, I cannot.
Mr Selfe—Then, I cannot help you.

Applicant—lf you were to see the wound where the dog
seized me you would find it is very severe.
Mr Selfe—You cannot take a summons unless you can
prove that the dog is in the habit of biting people. You
would have no proof under the Police Act that it is going
about in a dangerous state. The mere fact of the dog's
biting you is not sufficient to empower me to grant you a
summons.

Applicant—Ho bit me severely—that shows he is dan.
gerous.

Mr. Selfe—lie might have had a species of animosity to
you. You must show that he is in the habit of biting
other peop!e.
Applicant—Can I have no redress for the damage done
to my trousers?
Mr Selfe—Not here. You must go t 3 the County Court
for any claim of that sort.

MARLBOROUGH• STREET.

SHOCKING CONDITION Or OMNIBUS HORSES.—William
Pouhoney, the driver of omnibus 7,517, the property of Mr
John Bacon, of No. 41, Ledbury-road, Bayswater, was
charged before Mr Tyrwhitt, by the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with cruelly ill-treating
and torturing two horses by working them in an unfit state
in an omnibus.

The horses—or, more properly, the remains of horses—
were brought to the front of the court for the magistrate's
inspection, and they presented a pitiable spectacle.
Pinkerford, one of the officers of the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, proved seeing the de-
fendant driving two horses attached to an omnibus near the
Tottenham-court-road last night about nine o'clock. The
horses seemed very fatigued, and the defendant was whip-
ping them. He stopped the horses, and on examining them
the off side horse had a large wound on the near side hock,
which was badly swollen. The other horse had one of its
hoofs slit. On telling the defendant the horses were unfit
for work, he said he could not help it, and that if ho had
not brought them out some one else would have done so.
Mr Arthur Cherry, the Government veterinary surgeon,
deposed that one of the horses had a large wound on the
near hock joint, and a sore on the outside of the arm of the
near foreleg. The other had disease of the foot. which was
incurable, and a number of sores about it. Both horses
were unfit for work of any kind, and would not work at all
without being whipped.
The defendant said he had never driven a better pair of
horses.

Mr Tyrwhitt said he thought the defendant should not
be proceeded against alone. A summons ought to be taken
out against the owner of the horses. He would inform the
defendant that he was liable to be sent to prise n for three
mouths, and he meant that observation also to apply to the'
proprietor. He would take the defendant's own recognis-
ance to appear on Tuesday, on which day the sum:nons
against the owner would be returnable, and in the meantime
the horses could be watched to see they were ne t worked
again.

-.....,
TON almost alone perceived the merits of Sir R.
HILL'S plan when others, Sir R. PEEL included,
either opposed or coldly supported him." This
proves the importance of master minds being en-
trusted with the affairs of the nation, and demon-

strates how much perspicacity and foresight may
accomplish in the way of invention and improve•
ment, when mediocrity is altogether at fault and
meaner capacities are quite incapable of grasping
at the idea suggested to them, and are only alive
to the impracticability of its execution. It is

another advantage of a man of Lord BROUGHAM'S

age presiding over such an assembly that he is

stored with the treasures of experience, and memory
London, England, 1864-09-24

The optical illusion of " Prince Blossom," after a
triumphant career of eight months, has been withdrawn, in
order to give place to a new sketch by the same author, Mr
Vandervell, entitled "Perfume and Fair Bouquet," and
which was produced last evening with decided success. It
opens with a storm at sea and shipwreck. This is managed
by the aid of Professor Pepper's well-known ghost illusion,
and the sinking of the vessel is a perfect sensation. We
feel quite certain that Professor Pepper a twelvemonth ago
could never have contemplated his invention would ever
have been brought to such a state of perfection. Prince
Perfume is washed on shore, and tells us in a medley song
that he has come to rescue the Fair Bouquet from the power
of a bad fairy, called Nettle, who has stolen her when a
child. Fair Bouquet (Miss Hayes) sings from her tower
" I wish I had st mething to love me" s) sweetly that Per-
fume is enraptured, and is about to climb the tower, when
he is met by Howley Cub, a demon with three heads, who
engages him in a phantom fight. This combat is very
cleverly managed. The passing of the sword through the
demon and the decapitation drew down thunders of applause.
As a matter ei course, the Prince conquers the Demon and
rescues Fair Bouquet; but as true love never does run
smooth (so the playwriters will have it), the fairy Nettle
once more gets them in her power, and had it not been for
fairy Fragrance, who takes them under her protection, we
should not have been invited to her Roseate Bowers, and
have witnessed the bal dansanle she gives iu honour of
their nuptials. This is one of the grandest effects ever
produced. Numerous fairies appear and perform a ballet de
fieures through les eaux merveilleuses,and ultimately ascend
through a shower of coloured fire to the "Realms of Love."
Mrs Randall enacted the part of Prince Perfume with a
degree of naive which made it very amusing, and in a duet
with Fair Perfume danced right merrily, The overture
and incidental music, by Willem Vandervell, is capitally
arranged, and the sketch itself is very smartly written. If
we may judge from the applause bestowed upon it last
evening, we think this sketch is destined to have as long a
run as its predecessor. The other entertainments comprised
the "Tercentenary," in which Mr Randall is still received
wit h roars of laughter; the " Anthropophaginian," illus-
trated by Mr Hilton; a variety of comic singing by Mr
Stracey, &c. ; and a grand selection from the opera of
" Ernani," conducted by Mr Jonghmans, and in which the
prima donna, Miss Russell, sang most charmingly.

THE DANISH QUESTION,

VIENNA, Sept. 20.
Tho newly established Liberal organ, the Neue
Freie Press°, publishes the following interesting
article upo❑ the latest turn taken by the peace ne-

gotiation s
" Widely spread reports impart increasing proba-
bility to the belief that the opposition of Denmark,
and the diplomatic interposition of the other Cabi-
nets in her favour, have not remained without in-
fluence upon the great German Powers. The state-
ment recently made with some positiveness could

otherwise hardly have arisen. It is to the effect that
the Cabinets of Vienna and Berlin have already made

a series of concessions, and were now upon filo point
not only of evacuating Jutland, but also of ceding to

Denmark a considerable portion of North Sehles.
wig, consisting of the town of Christiansfeld, and

ing, upon the other hand, how decisively the influ•
ence of Russia operates upon the policy of Prussia
at every important period, and that the Ereuz
Zei-
tung party—the best friends of Russia—ale now at
the head of affairs in Prussia, the protracting tactics
of Denmark appear in quite a different light, and
it is impossible to deny the likelihood that her dar-
jog hopes may to some extent be realised.
" We trust that a (I cision will be come to in good
time at Vienna and Berlin, and a stroke be made
through the Russo-Danish calculations. But every
day's delay increases the danger that the prelimi•
naries conquered in blood shall remain a dead letter,
and that Germany will again be offered that which
she has already seen twice in the Schleswig-Holstein
question a peace
giving the dwarf a right to
mock and challenge the 'giant for another decen-
nium."

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 3; per mile pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.35 per £1 sterling. On
comparing* these rates with the English Mint price of £3

rather more than 3-IGths per cent. dearer in London than in
Paris.

BY advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 423 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.41 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, thereic re, about
3-I'.ths per cent. dearer in London then in Hamburg.
