the prisoner Williams gave the landlady into custody.
Under the prisoner's bed he found, by Williams's direc-
tion, seven medals, used by magsmen and others to re-
present sovereigns among the " green horns." She said
that the landlady had robbed her of the good gold, which
she had stolen from the gentleman, and had substituted
these for them. Witness then took them both to the
station•house and locked them up.
The prisoner Williams was then put into the witness-
box and sworn—She said that on Thursday morning, the
13th inst., at two o'clock, she met a gentleman in the
Blackfriars's-road. He was much intoxicated, and she
asked him to give her a shilling. He put his hands in
his pockets, and said he had not got a shilling, when she
said be knew he had, and she then put her band in his
trouser's pocket and felt a purse. She took that out,
and after a little struggling with him she got away.
When she arrived in the Borough she examined the
purse, and found it to contain £7 103. in gold. She
chewed them to her landlady, and the latter changed
ono of the half-sovereigns for her. After that she said
that she had better keep the rest or the police might be
after her and take them from her. She (Williams)
handed the £7 to her, and she put them away. Yester-
day morning she asked them to be returned to her,
when the lodging-house keeper banded her seven medals
of the King of Hanover, stating ithat they were what
she gave her. Witness knew otherwise, as the lodging-
house keeper rung all the pieces before putting them
away, and knew they were all good money.
The magistrate said there had been a good deal of
roguery about the lodging-house keeper, but there was
nothing for him to detain her; therefore she must be
discharged. As for Williams, she had confessed to a
highway robbery, and must be remanded, to give the
police an opportunity to make some inquiries about her.

LATEST FROM FRANCE.

THE PEACE RUMOURS.

The Constitution/lc/ of yesterday pronounces
itself in favour of peace, and considers that the
task of the allies has been accomplished. Our con-
temporary argues thus :
"All that the Eastern war could give to France
either in moral or political result, in strength, con-
sideration, or influence in the councils of Europe,
it has granted. Why, therefore, if the precise aim
for which the war was commenced has been accom-
plished, should not France agree to a peace on the
conditions proposed since the commencement of
hostilities by the Allied Pewers, provided such be
the wish of Russia. France could not desire the
continuation of the war unless in the view of pass-
ing beyond the aim stipulated in the treaty of the 10th
April, when it would become a question of dismember-
ing the Russian empire. The latter act could alone be
done at the profit of some one power. Would not
France in that case require a compensation for the
advantages which would accrue to our European state ?
Would it not be justified in exacting that compensa-
tion ? But in that case it would no longer concern the
Eastern war with its special aim, as the treaty of the 10th
April with its particular character; it would be
nothing less than the reconstruction of the map of
Europe and a revision of the treaties of 1815.
Certainly, if it could enter into the thoughts and
policy of England to propose to France a similar
measure, and it would be found convenient and proper
to France to entertain the proposal, the continuation
of the war with that aim in view might appear
desirable to many ; and it must be admitted that a
conflict of that nature, notwithstanding the sa-
crifices it would demand, would be popular. But
the Eastern war has not called that question into
existence ; it is nowise the aim with which Eng-
land and France armed themselves against Russia ; and
from the moment when it is not question of going out of
the limits of the treaty of the 10th April, there can be
no reasonable motive to desire the continuation of th•
war."

AUSTRIA.

---
VIENNA, Dec. 16.—Those Austrians who, being
of an age to render military service, intentionally
maim themselves, are to be severely punished, and
then employed in the baggage train or in the mili-
tary hospitals. The Archbishop of Vienna, as-
sisted by four priests, has made a draft of a law
relative to marriages, but no lawyer was consulted
on the matter. The draft must be submitted to
the Imperial Government before it can become the
law of the land, but no one doubts that it will be
approved.
When the Empress appeared in the Opera, after
her recent misadventure, she was received with
great enthusiasm by the audience.

The Vienna Medical Gazette learns from War-
saw that Dr. Oppolzer has received every attention
from those attached to the person of the Viceroy. He
was met by one of the Prince's Adjutants on the
frontiers, and is lodged in the Palace. The diagnosis
of the famous physician is, that Prinoe Paskiewitch
is suffering from a cancerous ulcer in the stomach
(perforirendes Magen-geschwur). His prognostic
is the more unfavourable, because a carbuncle of
the size of a man's fist has formed near the spine.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRS AT LAMBETH.—Yesterday, be-
tween the hours of one and two o'clock, a very serious
fire broke out in Charles-street, Oakley-street, Lambeth.
The fire originated on the premises of Mr. A. Beatrice,
dyer. The workshops were composed of wood, which,
once ignited, blazed up with amazing rapidity. Fortu-
nately the London Fir* Brigade and West of England
engines were ie full play within ten minutes after the
firo burst forth. Notwithstanding the exertions of the
firemen, the building was burnt down, and the adjoin-
ing premises of Mr. H. Galland, coach builder, and the
houses in James•place, were also ♦ery considerably da.
maged by fire and water. The origin of the misfortune
is unknown, but the premises are insured in the London
Fire office.

I EXTRAOHDINAMY SUICIDE IN TEE ClTT.—Yesterday
morning Mr. William Payne, the coroner for the city of
London, recaived information of the death of Samuel
Wheatley, aged 31 years, Belmont-street, St. George's-
road, who committed self destruction under the follow-
, ing circumstances :—lt appears that the deceased had
been keeping his birthday at a house in Lime street,
City, when he became excessively intoxicated. From
some cause, which cannot be clearly ascertained, he
suddenly tbrew himself out of the second-floor window,
a height of 40 feet, fracturing his skull in a frightful
manner. He was picked up by the City police from a
pool of blood, in a state of insensibility, and conveyed
to Isaac-ward, St. Thomas's Hospital. He died shortly
after hie admieDion,

HARWAR V. DIIIEAPER.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, formerly
a pianoforte manufacturer, carrying on business in
Bloomsbury-street, to recover compensation of the de•
fendant, a pianoforte manufacturer, of Liverpool, for in-
venting certain improvements in that instrument which
the defendant had patented. There were other claims,
but which were not material.

The plaintiff: it appeared, had been lately in the de-
fendant's service, and whilst so employed had suggested,
as he stated, the improvements in question, but which
the defendant alleged were of his invention, and worked
out under his direction by the plaintiff.
At the conclusion of the plaintiff's case the learned
counsel withdrew from the cause, and a verdict was
accordingly returned fur the
.defendant, thereby esta-
blishing his right to the originality of the improvements.

CRIMINAL COURT--(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Coleridge.)

This morning, at the sitting of the Court, the two pri-
soners, Davidson and Gordon, were again placed upon
their trial on an indictment, charging them with having
fraudulently, within three months of their bankruptcy,
obtained goods with intent to defraud their creditors.
The prisoners pleaded not guilty.
Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Poland were for the prosecu-
tion, and Mr. Montague Chambers, Mr. Parry, and Mr.
Sergeant Byles was for the defence.
It appeared, in the present instance, that, about the
middle of May, 1854, the two prisoners had given orders,
through Messrs. Beddoe, of Huggins-lane, commission
agents, for some barege and other drapery goods, which
they said were for the Indian market. These goods, to
amount in value of 426/. 65., were manufactured by
Messrs. Macmillan, of Glasgow, to whom Messrs.
Beddoe were agents. Gordon said, upon Messrs. Bed-
doe's clerk first calling to solicit orders, that he would
give an order as soon as a gentleman came from India,
and sent a note to Messrs. Beddoe to call upon them,
which having been done, the order in question was
given. These goods were given through the prisoners,
packers to the St. Katherine's Docks. A few days after the
goods had been sent to prisoners, Gordon saw a gentle-
man of the name of Evart at the offices of Joseph
Windle Cole, and asked him if the house to which ho
belonged, the house of Ogleby, Gallander, and Co.,
Liverpool, conveyed goods to Calcutta. The pri-
soners then, upon the goods so obtained from
Messrs.. Macmillan and some others, obtained
an advance of 1,5001. This was but a few days
before their absconding. The case was proceeding
when we went to press, and, as it is the intention of the
'prosecution to give evidence of several other instances
of obtaining goods and raising money upon them just
before the prisoners became bankrupts, is likely to last
until a late hour at night.

M iDEAMISELLE RACHEL.

A letter from New York was published a few days
hack in a Bordeaux journal stating that when the packet
was about to sail a rumour was prevalent at the former
place of the death of Mdlle. Rachel, the actress, and
mentioning that the event was said to have taken place
at Philadelphia. The Entr'acte contradicts the report
in the following terms :—" We have positive intelli-
gence of Mdlle. Rachel in tf-letter written by herself to
her mother. 'There is, consequently, no truth in the
account published in some of the journal 3 of her death,
and we aro happy to be able to thus tranquillise the nu.
merous friends and admirers of our great performer."

LATEST NEWS.

VIENNA, THURSDAY EVENING, OCT. 11.

Up to nine o'clock on the evening of the 9th
:natant the fleets had undertaken nothing against

Odessa.

A band of Montenegrins has made an irruption
into the Herzegowina, and in doing so has violated

The Royal African mail steam-ship Retriever,
Captain Macintosh, from the West Coast and

ing the Sound.

FRANCE.
PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING.
The Moniteur publishes the following :
" France will learn with as much joy as gratitude to
Providence that the Empress is pregnant. This happy
event, which promises to the Emperor the only satisfac-
tion which was wanting to his domestic happiness, is a
new guarantee of the stability of our institutions. Every
one will address thanksgivings to Heaven and prayers
for the preservation of the health of the Empress and
for the fulfilment of the hopes of the nation."

The Royal Prussian Gazette states that Queen
Victoria and Prince Albert are to stand godfather
and godmother to the little Prince or Princess
which is shortly expected to increase the Imperial
family of France.
The market has been very flat, as the specula-
tors apprehended a new rise of on the rate of dis-
count of the Bank of England. But, as Consols
had slightly improved, there was a rally on our
securities. Nothing was officially known about the
result of to-day's sitting of the directors of the
Bank of France, but it was considered as certain
that the discount would be maintained at 5 per
cent., but the Bank would renounce the measure
concerning the bills at 75 days' date. The Threes
halie been flat from 64f. 50c. to 64f. 55c., and the
other securities remain at the range of yesterday's
prices. It was reported at the end of the Bourse
that the directors of the Bank of France had main-
tained the measure which they had taken last week.

AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna of the 7th, in the Bourse
Gazette of Berlin, says :—" The arrangement which
the Government is about to enter into with the
Bank for the regulation of financial affairs will
allow it to dispense with any other capital. It is
stated, in fact, that the Minister of Finance has
declared to M. de Rothschild, as well as to the
Baron de Sina, who was carrying on negotiations on
account of M. Pereire, that he could not come to
any decision until the Bank had executed the ope-
rations proposed to it. The negotiations with these
gentlemen may, therefore, be considered as broken
off."

According. to a letter from Vienna, in Voss's
Gazette of Berlin, France has given her adhesion
to the proposition of Vienna that Prince Stirbey,
the llospodar of Servia, whose functions would
expire next spring, shall retain his present dignity
until the questions relative to the organisation of
the Principalities shall have been settled. M. de
Wil-lebruck, the Prussian Ambassador at Constan-
tinople, has arrived at Vienna, on his way to his
post, and has had an interview with Count Buol.
Several bankers here give credence to the ru-
mour that Russia is contracting a loan in North
America, and that the negotiations are nearly
concluded.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY—(This Day.)

IN RE C. J. MARE, ENGINEER, BLACKWALL.

This was a meeting for choice of assignees. The court
was densely crowded with creditors, the taking of whose
proofs occupied a considerable time. The individual debts
proved to-day were principally of small amounts.
The following gentlemen were, chosen assignees :
Mr. P. Rolt, M.P. for Greenwich ; Mr. M. Hunter, of
the Commercial Bank ; and Mr. S. Turner, of Shad-
well.

We believe it is the intention of the assignees to con-
tinue the works, believing it will ultimately prove be-
neficial to the creditors, in giving them 20s. in the
pound on their debts.

GEN. BEATSOIV'S BASELT-BAZOUKS..

The Presse d'Orient has a letter from the Darda-
nelles, dated the 28th of September, and containing
the following details of the recent disturbance :

"An Albanian Lieutenant of the Bashi-Bazouks made
his way into the house of one of his comrades, Lieute-
nant in the Arab regiment, and attempted a gross out-
rage upon his wife. The Arab, informed of this, hastened
home, and, in the fight that ensued, received a violent
sabre cut on the shoulder. The police, on information
received from the wounded man, commenced an active
pursuit of the offender, who escaped and regained his
camp. On Monday last he boldly re-appeared in the
town, and walked about the market ; lie was recognised,
and a soldier ordered him to follow him to the Gover-
nor's. The reply was a bullet through the thigh. Sur-
rounded by the guard, and summoned to give up his
arms, he still resisted, and used his pistols ; fortunately
they missed fire ; he was knocked down, bound, and
taken to prison. Informed of this, Gen. Beatson COM-
plained to the Governor, Djdmal Pasha, of the manner
in which the Lieutenant had been treated after his
arrest. But, meanwhile, the Governor called together
the consuls and the military Governor, and it was de-
cided in council, that in future any Bashi-Bazouk of the
Turco-British cavalry who should enter the town armed
should be disarmed, by force if necessary. The decision was
approved by all present, and especially by Mr. Calvert, who
is anxious that a corps in English pay should not prove a
subject of discord with Turkey. The French Consul
also strongly supported the measure, which was commu-
nicated to General Beatson, who made it known to the
troops under his command. The Arabs received the
order with submission, but the Albanians, already exas-
perated, showed symptoms of resistance. The town ap-
prehended an incursion of the Albanians, but General
Beatson confined them all to quarters, and the night
passed quietly. The inhabitants had nothing to fear—
the authorities displayed imposing forces. Parties of
Lancers were posted at all the issues, two batteries of
artillery were in position opposite the camp, and infantry
was massed upon the flank to protect the guns. The
Military Governor, accompanied by the Civil Governor,
commanded in person. At the same time the English
war steamer Oberon stationed herself so as to sweep the
road with grape, whilst the French at Nagara were ready
to march to the assistance of the town, and the Lucifer
got up her steam in case of need. Everybody expected
an attack. The Turks of the Dardanelles armed them-
selves to support the Government. But the Bashi-Ba-
zouks busied themselves with the usual morning fatigue
duty, and at noon began to go down into the town, with-
out arms, as quietly as if nothing bad happened. The
c troops were withdrawn, and all was tranquil. General
Beatson and all the English officers showed great calm-
ness, and contributed by their attitude to the preserva-
tion of peace in the camp. Now the Bashis come un.
armed into town, and there is perfect tranquillity."
