MR. C. J. PLUMPTRE'S LECTURES ON ELOCUTION.
—We hive vtry great pleasure in announcing that
the Lectures on Professional Elocution, delivered by
Charles J. Plumptre, Esq., at Oxford, have been submitted
to H.R.11. the Prince of Wales, and that the Prince has
graciously signified his pleasure that the forthcoming new
edition of Mr. Plumptre's Lectures should be dedicated to
his Royal Highness. The honour conferred on Mr.
Plumptre by this mark of royal favour and approval was
conveyed to him a few days since, in a letter of a very gra-
tifying character, from Lieutenant-General Is nollys, the
Comptroller of the Prince's household. We find that the
following paragraph on the subject appears in the Law
limes of Saturday, June 27 :—" His Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales has been pleased to give his gracious per-
mission that the new edition of Mr. C. J. Plumptre's Lec-
tures on Professional Elocution, delivered by him at Ox-
ford, may be dedicated to his Royal Highness."----.From

DIDCOT MARKET WOOL FAlR.—This wool fair
which was held on Tuesday last, was well attended
by dealers, and the quantity of wool pitched and represented
by sample, though not quite so much as last year, in conse-
quence of many sales having been effected previous, through
the tempting high prices, was nevertheless quite up to the
average since its establishment, which is now some four years
since, and it does in every way appear to be of great and
solid advantage to the wool growers of the district, and there
is every prospect of its becoming a large and useful fair. The
quantity pitched and represented by sample (a large propor-
tion of which was disposed of)
was 1,050 tod, the prices
being for ewe, 47s ; teg, 48s per tod A large show of horses
and other cattle.

Co oa-Nut F bre Mats and Matting, under Letters Patent
granted to George Davies. dated the 24th April. 1862.
The principal feature of DASiCS'S Invention consists in the
Improved pile of the tout, and. owiug to the mode of weaving,
great durability is given to the fabric at a reduced cost of
manufacture.
The Superiority of articles manufactured by
this process

riage and door mats, &c., have a thick fibrous pile upon the
surf ace hitherto unattained.

head of the Federal Government, has shrunk from
the perilous responsibility of venturing at this
crisis of the war upon the exceeding responsibility
that could not but inevitably attach to General
M'CLELLAN'S reinstalment. Rather than decide upon
which act of temerity, Mr. LINCOLN has preferred to
place the baton of commander within the grasp of
a general wholly unknown hitherto in any superior
authority whatever. An appointment, this,
under the circumstances, calculated obviously
in no way to rekindle the extinguished
hopes of the Northern population. Insomuch
that we are not in the least surprised to notice evi-
dences of an increase rather than of any diminution

THE CHARGE OF ROBBING A CAFE PROPRIETOR,—
Edith Holloway, the young woman charged with robbing
Mr. Alfred Lion, the proprietor of the Cafe de Londres,
New Covent] y-street, her employer, was again brought up.
Mr. Herring appeared for the defence. _ .

It was alleged on the last examination that the prisoner
had stolen a " lady's companion" and other articles, and
Mr. Lion said that while she was in his employ he missed
a quantity of valuable property.
Mr. Lion now stated that as he had reason to suspect
another person was more guilty than the prisoner, he did
not wish to press the case.
Mr. Herring, on behalf of the young woman, said that
on the last occasion it was stated that an album and a

" lady's companion" were found in the prisoner's room. It
was quite true that was the case, but there was no conceal-
ment of the articles, as they were placed on a table in the
prisoner's bedroom, to which any person in the house could
have free access. He (Mr. Herring) would ask the prose••
cutor whether it' was not owing to his belief that the pro-
perty he had missed had been taktn away by some one
else that he wished to withdraw from the prosecution.

Mr. Lion said that was the cam
The magistrate and Mr. Herring having both exonerated
Mr. Lion from all blame in charging the prisoner, she was
discharged.

CHARGE OF FRAUD AND SWINDLING.-A respectably
dressed wan, who has been several times at this court on
remand, was charged before Mr. Selfe, in the name of Capt.
Archibald Logan, with having obtained a pony under the
following circumstances :
Mr. Smyth attended for the prosecution.
It appeared that a few weeks ago the prisoner saw a pony
which belonged to the coachman of Mr. Pearce, Knights-
bridge, and which was valued at about £35. He subse-
quently agreed to give £3l 10s. for it. He got the pony to
try it, and left the deposit of a cheque for that amount,
which was not honoured. The prisoner was subsequently
apprehended by Serg..ant Hodgson, B 36, when the charge
of obtaining fraudulent possession of the animal was en-
tered into, and the prisoner was held to bail in
his own recognisance of £lOO to appear again. He, how-
ever, did not attend, upon which his recognisance was
forfeited. On the next occasion, thruugh the exertions of
Sergeant Hodgson, the pony was discovered at Cambridge,
in the possession of a person who had bought it, and who
, gave a price much less for it than the owner originally asked.
The prisoner having been committed on this charge a
further charge of conspiracy was entered into in reference
to an alleged attempt to defraud Messrs. Tolman and Co.,
dressing-case manufacturers. It was stated by the magis-
trate that being in the City the charge was out of his juris-

diction.
The depositions having been taken against the prisoner
he was sent for trial.
Application was made for bail, upon which he was told
that atter he had paid the amount of bail he had forfeited
his application would be considered.

BRAZIL.

Sir G. GREY intimated, in reply to Mr. S. FITZGERALD,
that supply would be on the paper next week, and that the
hon. member would then have an opportunity of bringing
on his motion with respect to Brazil.

Sir H. WILLOUGHBY protested against supply being
taken at the day sittings, when hon. members on com-
mittees, or otherwise engaged, could not attend.

THE PATRIOTIC FUND,

Col. NORTH asked the hon. member for Chichester if he
intended to name a day to move for a select committee to in-
quire into the management and present condition of the
Patriotic Fund.

Mr. J. A. SMITH said he intended to move an address
for a Royal commission for inquiry into the subject instead
of a select committee; but, inasmuch as there was to be a
meeting of Royal commissioners on Tuesday next, he should
await its result.

A BRACE OF RUFFIANS.—MURDEROUS ASSAULT.—
John Connor, aged 28, a labourer, was brought before Mr.
Partridge on remand, charged with violently assaulting
and wounding Thomas Harney, pugilist, ruffian, and touter
to some of the crimps along shore.
The complainant Harney is a fighting man, and has been
repeatedly fined and held to bail to keep the peace for as-
saults on men and women, and other outrages. For the last
two or three years he has behaved comparatively well, and
while he was under heavy sureties to keep the peace his
temper has been sorely tried by persons who have annoyed
him and attempted to provoke him to commit a breach of
the peace. He has been in the London Hospital for a week,
and has certainly received fearful injuries. There were
surgical plais era on his head and face, and he appeared very
pale and weakly. He said that he was dwelling with his
wife, at No. 3, Hope-court, St. George-in-the-East, and
that the pr isoner lived in the same court. A few nights
since he was on his way home and was passing the pri-
soner's dwelling talking to himself. and saying that he would
ask a policeman to call him up next morning, when the pri-
soner rushed from his door-way with a poker in his hand
and struck him repeatedly with it over the head and lace,
and inflicted divers wounds. He was knocked silly---he
lost a large quantity of blood, and was picked up and
carried to the Hospital. Harney then bent his head and
exhibited the surgical plaisters on the top of it.
In answer to questions by Mr. Partridge, the complainant
said that he never had a quarrel with the prisoner, and
never gave him any provocation at all.
Mrs. Harney, the complainant's wife, confirmed the evi-
dence of her husband, and said, after he was lying on the
ground weltering in his blood, the prisoner called out, "If
he is not settled with that, I'll rip him open with a knife."
Evidence was called for the prisoner, which proved that
Harney was the aggressor, and beat Connor in a brutal
manner.

Mr. Partridge said that Harney was beaten within an
inch of his life with a heavy iron poker, but he was the
aggressor and brought the dreadful punishment he received
on himself. There was also no doubt Harney was a very
quarrelsome fighting man. In consideration of the gross
provacatien received by the prisoner, he should fine him
408. only, and in default one month's imprisonment.

BURNING OF QUEEN'S COLLEGE, CORK

Mr. HENNESSY asked for some information with re-
spect to this event.

Sir R. PEEL considered that no advantage would be
gained by re-opening the matter. The house had already
voted £3,000 for the building, and £1,500 fur the fittings.
Col. FRENCH said, but for the vote of the Government,
the city of Cork would have had to bear the hole expense
of erecting the new building and fitting it.

Lord FERMOY said the Government deserved great
praise for their prompt and liberal conduct in the matter.
The Government were in possession of documents testify-
ing that the accusations made against those entertaining
ultramontane doctrines, that they set fire to the college,
were utterly and entirely false. The Government ought to
let the truth be known. If not the matter could not be al-
lowed to rest.

Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCII, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.

This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and Instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tutio,n in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.
The Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued suppcirt,
to enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.

This Commtny is formed for the purpose of manufacturing
Voloa-Nut Flbre Mats and Matting, under Letters Patent
granted to George Davies, dated the 24th April. 1862.
The principal feature of Davies's Invention consists in the
Improved pile of the mat, and, owing to the mode of weaving,
great durability is given to the fabric at a reduced cost of
Thanuf act ure.
The superiority of articles manufactured by this process
Over the present method will be well understo:d in the trade
'when it is stated that matting of all descriptions. and car-
riage and door mats, &a, have a thick fibrous pile upon the
surface hitherto unattained.
If no allotment be made, the deposit will be returned in
full.
Specimens of the new and improved manufacture may be
seen at the offices of the Company, where applications for

A LADLEFUL OF PUCE

A spiteful hint from Toby, we suspect, has suggested to
Punch the announcement of a new work in the press, en-
titled "Le Gammon de Paris," by John Arthur IZoebuck,
Esq., otherwise Tear'm.
_Punch observes, upon the subject of education, that it is
the part of a virtuous Government to give good instruction
to vice. And adds, in the great metropolis we are often
taught a moral lesson by the sight of a young thief being
brought up by a policeman.
The following is Punch's latest instance of flunkeiana :
—Rousemaid—" Janes I don't you hear your libery bell
a-ringing ?" James—" Bother the libery bell I I ain't
going to answer no libery bells—it's my Sunday out, and
I'm at church I"
A cool draught of Burton is seasonably defined afresh,
thus :—ln the last number of the Anthropological Review,
there is an article by Captain It. Burton, called " A Day
with the Fans." Very agreeable employment this I 0
course the "Fans" above alluded to belong to the race of
Coolies?

Another instance of the grave, odd, whimsical joking
that for some weeks past have been paragraphing
Punch with a new kind of dry humour, is the subjoined:—
Appalling and Mysterious.—A gentleman (F) and his wife
took lodgings some time since in a street not far from Picca-
dilly. One morning the gentleman went out, apparently
alone, and did not return. On subsequently searching the
room, the landlady was horrified on discovering that ber
lodger had taken hie better half with him, and left his
quarters. Surgical aid was called in, but too late to be of
any assistance.

Madlle. Volpini, Signor Bettini, Signor Gassier, Mr. Sant-
ley, M. Auer, Mr. Charles Halle, Mr. Otto Goldschmidt,
and Signor Arditi, will also give their valuable assistance to
the fair beneficiare, forming a combination of attraction that
can hardly fail to ensure a brilliant result.

AL Bauer, an engineer, has, after long prepara-
tory labours, succeeded in raising the Bavarian
Ludwig, which sank two years ago in the Lake of Con-
stance, in consequence of coming into collision with a Swiss
steamer. The engineer, in order to raise the vessel, which
was lying at a depth of 70 feet, made use of an apparatus
of his own invention. By means of divers he attached to her
one on each side, two large balloons made of water proof
linen which he filled with air. When the expansion had
become sufficient, a movement was observed in the wets
which looked as if boiling, and the vessel gradually came
to the surface,
