WESTMINSTER.

HEARTLESS ROBBERY.---A middle-aged woman, who
gave the name of Elizabeth. Scanlan, was charged with steal.
ing a scarf and coat, three half quartern loaves, and some
meat belonging to Mrs. Smith.

Eliza Smith, the daughter of the prosecutrix, s,id that on
Sunday morning her mother was robbed of the articles de-
scribed. She occupied an attic and aki oh-n in Dacre-
street, Westminster, and the whcle of the stolen articles
were in the kitchen. At a little after six on Sunday morn-
ing witness met the prisoner on the staircase with a bundle
in her hand, and running up against her one of the loaves
she had in it fell out. It was subsequently discovered that
her mother's kitchen had been entered and the things stolen.
Mr. kelfe—How was it that, meeting the woman as you
describe and carrying a bundle, that you did not stop her ?
Witness—Because I was foolish. I thought she might
be an ur_stair's lodger ; but even then I could have made
some inquiry of ter.

Prosecutor—lt was a most heartless and cruel robbery.
She had to stretch over my five orphan chilCren, who sleep
in the kitchen, to get the bread and meat she carried away,
and tb4 poor things and myself had to go without dinner
on Sunday through it; and the coat taken was one I had
to repair, and its loss may lose me my employme, t.
Mr, Selfe—ls anything known of the prisoner?
Tho police—She is an old thief just come out.
Prisoner was remanded.

quite mistaken. The trade was in no way affected by
the Queen's proclamation. In a despatch published that
morning from Earl Russell to Lord Lyons (it was a pity it
had n .t been written months ago), it was clearly shown that
a very large trade was carried on from New York and other
Northern ports, as well as from Liverpool. (Hear.) To
contend that goods carried to Matamoras might possibly be
taken afterwards into the Southern States was no ground of
complaint at all, said the noble earl. (Hear, hear.) The
hon. gentleman then alluded to the cases of the ships Adele,
Pearl, and Dolphin, which had been seized by the American
Government, as he contended, without any justification. In
the case of the Dolphin, she was condemned simply by one
letter found on board from the owner to the captain, telling
him not to unship hi 4 cargo at Matamoras or Nassau, but to
wait and try and get some more. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. COBDEN—What about the "hardware P"
Mr. FI CZGERALD said that did not affect the question
at all when a vessel was bound to Matamoras or some other
neutral port. If it did the Northerners wou'd be the first
to suffer, for there was scarcely a vessel left Liverpool for
New York without some " hardware" for the Northern bel-

ligerente. (Hear.) The Pearl was simply condemned be-
cause she appeared to be built for fast sailing, and, there-
fore, it was presumed she meant sailing into Charleston.
What he complained of was, that when those extraordinary
doctrines were made public Earl Russell did not immedi-
ately repudiate them. The truth was the Americans were
at all times jealous of our trade, and they saw we were doing
well at Matamoras, so they would endeavour at all risks to
interfere with us. It would have done more hon ur to Earl
Russell if he had acted promptly in all cases, whether they
might be in America or Brazil.

The amendment was then withdrawn.
RUSSIA AND POLAND.

Mr. HORSMAN, referring again to this subject, said he
was not satisfied with the answer previously given, and to-
morrow (Tuesday) evening he should again ask whether or
not it was true that the Russian answer to the combined
notes had been received in London at the Russian Embassy
on Saturday, as had been reported. He thought it was im-
portant this discussion should not be delayed till the close
of the session, because we were just now in the same posi-
tion in 1863 as we were in 1853. England and France ne-
gotiating with Russia. and Austria playing her own game,
and reported to have a secret understanding with Russia.
In that year the session closed at peace, but the next year
we were at war when the Parliament reopened. He thought
discussion ought to precede, and not follow negotiation.

MEXICO.

The following proclamation was issued by the
Mexican inhabitants of Tampico on receiving the
news of the fall of Puebla :

"Glory to the army of the East. Eternal re-
poach to the French Army.
"By the extraordinary express which arrived
last night from the capital of the Republic, we have
received the latest news relative to the heroic de-
fenders of Puebla.

The Mexicans resident in this city, full of pride
by reason of the glorious conduct followed by our
general chiefs and officers, prisoners in Puebla, have
resolved to publish this interesting news in
order that it may be brought to the knowledge of
our brothers, and that the whole world may admire
the greatness of our heroes.

The news to which we refer is the following :

Between 10 and 11 o'clock on the morning of the
18th our generals, chiefs, and officers who were all
assembled in the governmental palace of Puebla had
a document communicated to them for their signa-
ture, the terms of which were nothing more nor less
than the following :---,

" EXPEDITIONARY CORPS OF MEXICO.
"General in Chief—
" We, the undersigned officers of the army of the
East, declare upon our word of honour :

" Ist. We will never again take any part in the
politics of the country, and will be neutral in the
present struggle.

" 2d. We \Till not quit the place askigned to us by
the General-in-Chiet of the French army.
" 3d. We will not communicate with our families,
nor with any person without his present consent."

PUEBLA, MAY 18.

This document having been read by General
Llave, and the question being put to those present,
the whole assembly replied with one voice:—

" Viva Mexico ! Death to Napoleon! Death to
the Traitors !"

The citiztn generale, chiefs, and officers, more-
over, signed the following reply :—" Neither the
laws of the country, military honour, nor our pri-
vate convictions allow of our signing the declara-
tion which has been presented to us. We protest
against it by signing the present.
" Puebla, May 18, 1863."

In view of this honourable reply, the French
commander ordered that the Generals should be
conducted, in the quality of prisoners, to the Casa de
Insunza, in Victoria-street, the chiefs to the Con-
vent of La Soledad, and the subalterns to the Cus-
toms-house, all being wanted, and not: allowed to
quit their respective quorters.
" Tampico, May 28, 1863."

ROY AL COMMISSION.

At 20 minutes past 4 o'clock Col. CLIFFORD, the Yeo-
man Usher of the Black Rod, summoned the house to the
House of Peers to hear the Royal assent given by commis-
sion to certain bills, for which see Lords' report.
THE WAR IN AMERICA.

On the return of the Speaker in about a quarter of an
hour,

Mr. CONINGHAM presented a petition from a public
meeting at Burnley against any interference by this country
in the war in America.

Mr. MAGUIRE gave notice that he would move as an
amendment to Mr. Roebuck's motion, as to the war in
America, a resolution to the effect that the house, witness-
ing with the deepest regret the terrible loss of life
which characterized the lamentable struggle in the United
States, which had now lasted more than two years, was of
opinion that the Government should, in the interest of
humanity and civilization request the co-operation of the
Emperor of the French in recommending an immediate
armistice between the belligerents. The resolution was ex-
tremly lengthy in its terms, and there was some laughter
when the hon. member concluded reading it.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTEMPTED MURDER OF A FEMALE BY HER PARA-
MOUR.--Henry Broughton, a well-dressed young man,
described as a decorator of glass, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt as follows :
Susan Latteney, of 11, Old Compton-street, said—l live
with the prisoner, and yesterday, about 12 o'clock, I went
out to get some money for the prisoner, who lives upon me.
He promised to meet me in Regent-street, and he did so
about a o'clock. He asked me how much I had got, and I
said, "A sovereign," and gave it to him. He said that
was not enough, and I was to get more. I then met another
gentleman, and I went with him to Oxenden-street,
the prisoner following, as was his habit. The gentleman
gave me three sovereigns, which I gave to the prisoner,
whe had been waiting for me opposite the house I went to
with the gentlemen. The prisoner then asked me if that
was all the gentleman had given me, and on my telling him
it was, he said he must have more, as he wanted £2O that
week. He thin demanded my watch and chain, and on
my giving them to him he said, " Now, I'll tear all your
clothes off." He then knocked me down in the road, tore
my hair, and clothes, and tried to cut my throat with a
penknife with a white handle. A number of women came
up ana called the prisoner a brute, and some of them
scratched his face. He then get into a cab and went off,
leaving me half naked, and without a penny. I then went
to my mother's house in Chapel-street, where he afterwards
came and beat me about the head in a most violent manner
with a stick, and also again attempted to cut my throat with
a penknife. He was afterwards given into custody,
Mr. Tyrwhitt—How long have you lived with the pri-
soner ?

Prosecutor—About two years.
The mother of the prosecutrix corroborated her as to a
portion of her statement.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—Prisoner what have you got to say.
Prisoner set up a cowardly defence, at the same time
crying.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—A more base and cowardly life a man could
not lead than you (prisoner) have been leading, and then
you use brute force to the female upon you have been living,
and who evidently has been living with you from fear and
some sort of infatuation which I cannot understand. You
are a cowardly ruffian, and when you find •hat the law is
going to be put in force against you for your brutal conduct
you begin crying. You will go for six months with hard
labour, and at the end of that time find two bails of £lO
each to keep th 9 peace for 12 months.
The prosecutrix—He has threatened to murder me if I do
not live with him.
London, England, 1863-06-30

Miss Mary White said—l have on two occasions seen
scenes in the Crystal. On the first occasion I saw a Swiss
scene, with the snow falling, and on the other a ruined
abbey.

By the Chief Justice—l have never been in Switzerland,
and I suppose the scenery I saw to be Swiss from pictures
I may have seen.

This closed the case for the plaintiff.
Mr. Sergeant Shee then addressed the jury for the
' plaintiff, and said the defendant had altogether failed to
show that his client (Lieutenant Morrison) was the gross
impostor he said he was, and that being the
case it became their duty to find a verdict in
his favour. The learned gentleman made some
very severe remarks upon the conduct of Sir Edward Bel-
cher, and said although he had the spirit to write an anony-
mous libel, he had not the courage to get into the witness-
box, and attempt to prove the truth of his assertion.
Sergeant Ballantine then addressed the jury for the de-
fendant, and in the course of his remarks he commented
very severely upon the plaintiff, and said he would not
insult the good sense of the jury by imagining for one
moment that they would give a verdict unfavourable to his
client (Sir E. Belcher), a gentleman who had passed so
many years of his life in endeavouring to add to the stock
of knowledge his countrymen possessed.

The Lord Chief Justice, in summing up the evidence
said before they could ffiri a verdict for defendant they
must be of opinion that the facts stated in the libel were
true, and that the plaintiff exhibited the ball, knowing it
was an imposture, and that he did it in coder to get money.
Now, as far as the latter part of the defence was concerned,
there could be no doubt that the charge of exhibiting the
ball for gain had altogether failed, and although they might
laugh at the plaintiff for believing in the revelations made
by the boys looking is the crystal: they could not say ha
was an impostor. With respect to the publication of
" Zadkiel's Almanack," the matter became altogether of a
very different nature, because he could not help remarking
that the publication of a volume of such a nature laid the
party doing so open to very severe criticism. He thought
there was a great deal in it of what was preposterous and
mischievous, and an author imbued with the peculiarities
of Zadkiel must expect to meet strictures of a not very
pleasant nature. But then, even under such circumstances,
those comments must be within the bounds of fair and
honest criticism. They had heard the terms in which the
author of the Almanack had been stigmatised, and they
therefore would have to say how far he had suffered from
those observations.
The jury then retired.
At 6 o'clock the jury returned into court with a verdict for
the plaintiff. Damages--Twenty shillings.
Mr. Griffiths, the junior counsel for the plaintiff, asked
his lordship to give a certificate

The Chief Justice—lt is better to leave the verdict to
,ake its own effect, I think.

WESTMINSTER.

HEARTLESS ROBBERY.—A middle-aged woman, who
gave the name of Elizabeth Scanlan, was charged with steal..
ing a scarf and coat, three half quartern loaves, and some
meat belonging to Mrs. Smith.

Eliza Smith, the daughter of the prosecutrix, said that on
Sunday morning her mother was robbed of the articles de-
scribed. She occupied an attic and a ki,ch.n in Dacre-
street, Westminster, and the whcle of the stolen articles
were in the kitchen. At a little after six on Sunday morn-
ing witness met the prisoner on the staircase with a bundle
in her hand, and running up against her one of the loaves
she had in it fell out. It was subsequently discovered that
her mother's kitchen had been entered and the things stolen.
Mr. Selfe—How was it that, meeting the woman as you
describe and carrying a bundle, that you did not stop her ?
Witness—Because I was foolish. I thought she might
be an upstair's lodger ; but even then I could have made
some inquiry of her.

Prosecutor—lt was a most heartless and cruel robbery.
She had to stretch over my five orphan children, who sleep
in the kitchen, to get the bread and meat she carried away,
and the poor things and myself had to go without dinner
on Sunday through it ; and the coat taken was one I had
to repair, and its loss may lose me my employment.
Mr. Selfe—ls anything known of the prisoner?
The police—She is an old thief just come out.
Prisoner was remanded.
London, England, 1863-06-30

PENSIONS OF INDIAN OFFICERS.

Sir 11. ST RACEY, in the absence of Capt. Jervis, asked
the Secretary of State of India, whether it was true that
the pension of an officer, late of 3d Madras N. 1., bad been
stopped, on the requisition of creditors.
Mr. T. G. BARING—Can the hon. member give the
name of the officer ?

Sir H. ST RACEY—I cannot. (Laughter.)
Mr. T. G. BARING—Then I am unable at present to
answer the question.

THE MHOW COURT-MARTIAL.

Mr. CONINGHAM asked the Under Secretary of State
for War whether he would lay upon the table of the house
a copy of the second letter or memorandum on the Mhow
court martial, signed by the adjutant-general, a portion of
which letter had been read out to Captain Smales at the
Horse Guards, wherein it was said that in the opinion of
his Royal Highness the statements contained in the Pay-
master's letter of Feb. 26 were not considered by him as
false, though they were in part malicious ? Ho also asked
whether the opinion of the Judge Advocate-General in
India had been taken on the proceedings ?

The Marquis of HARTINGTON said the only document
which answered the description given by the hon. member
was one marked "private." covered by a private letter, and
not read to the troops, but in it his royal highness the com-
mander-in chief had not modified the opinion he had pre-
viously given. Although, however, it was a private com-
munication, so anxious was his royal highness that nothing
in the matter should be kept back, that at his special re-
quest it would be produced. The whole proceedings had
been laid before the Judge-Advocate-General, and as he
was of opinion that they were perfectly legal, Capt. Smalls
was gazetted out of the service.
PREVENTION OF FIRES.

Sir DE L. EVANS asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department, when the bill was to be brought in con-
cerning the means for the better prevention of fires ?

Sir G. GREY said that the bill r,‘ as not ready, and he
was afraid h could not be introduced in time t• pass this

AMERICA.

In answer to a question trom Lord STRATREDENt
Earl
_RUSSELL said that about an hour before
the meeting of the house the French Ambassa-
dor had called on him at the Foreign Office,
and said that he had heard it very generally rumoured that
he had received orders to make a communication to her:Ma-
jesty's Government relative to America. The French Am-
bassador then informed him that he had no orders to make
any proposition from the Emperor of the French such as
had been reported; but the Emperor was desirous of
acting in concert with the British Government to
bring about a cessation of hostilities in America.
The Sheep and Cattle (Scotland) and the Oath Relief
(Scotland) bills were read a second time.
The Sale of Mill Sires (Ireland) Bill passed through
committee and was reported.
The reports of amendments in the Volunteers and Regi-
mental Debts bills wei e brought up and received.
The Postmaster-General's Sale of Lands Bill was read a
second time.

The Local Government (No. 2) Bill passed through corn

passed.
The District Parochial Churches (:reland) Bid passed
through committee.
The Inclosure (No. 2) Bill was read a third time and
passed.
THE lONIAN ISLANDS.

The Earl of DERBY v.:en rose to move for a copy of the
proclaimation issued by Sir H. Storks for the annexation of
the lonian Islands to Greece. The noble earl design4ed
the cession as most unpolitic, as the severing the connection
or those is:ands with a powerful country and uniting
them with one that was in a very unsettled state, could not
but be regarded with dissatisfaction by a great majority of
the thinking part of the population of those islands.

THE SUAKSPEARE MONUMENT.—DRURY LANE
THEATRE.—The performance in aid of the funds
for erecting a national monument to Shakspeare takes
place this evening, and from the extraordinary Combination
of talent an overflowing house will, no doubt, be the'result.
We are to have selections from no less than nine of Shak-
speare's ploys, each supported by the leading members of
the dramatic profession. The selection from "As You
Like It," with Miss Helen Faucit as Rosalind, will be a
great treat. The performance, we see, is under the
patronage of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

THE REFRESHMENT-BOOMS OF THE HOUSE OF
COMMONS.—The subjoined resolutions have been
agreed to by the select committee appointed to control the
arrangements of the kitchen and refreshment-rooms in the
department of the sergeant-at-arms:—" That it is the opi-
nit nof this committee-1. That an application be made to
the commissioners of the fee fund for an additional annual
grant of £3OO to provide for the better management of the
kitchen and refreshment-rooms. 2. That the committee,
having further considered the subject of the enlargement
of the dining-rooms, are of opinion that such enlargement
is absolutely necessary, and having seen Mr. Barry's im-
proved plan, are of opinion that i; would afford the accom-
modation required, but express the hope that his plan might
be executed for a smaller sum than the amount which has
been named in the evidence. 3. That as the present mana-
ger still fails to perform his duties satisfactorily, the com-
mittee should be empowered to receive proposals from
any person who may be willing to undertake the office in
the next session of Parliament."
London, England, 1863-06-30

DEATH OF A VETERAN.

We have to announce the death of Major-Gen.
Thomas Kelly, K.C., on the 27th inst., at No. 7,
Lansdowne-square, Rosherville, at the age of 87.
He entered the army nearly 70 years ago, and was
early engaged with his regiment, the 26th Light
Dragoons, in the operations carried on towards the
close of the last century in the West India Islands,
and was actively employed agaiut the Caribs and
the French till he was ordered to Portugal. On
the voyage the transport wus attacked by a Spanish
gunboat, which was beaten off, and in the conflict
ne much distinguished himself. He proceeded to
Egypt with the force under Sir R. Abercrombie,
and participated in the engagements which crowned
the expedition with ,uccess; and he was present at
the siege of Aboukir, and in the operations under
Sir Eyre Coote, near Alexandria. He was also en-
gaged in an action on the 21st of March, and was
wounded in a night attack on the 25th of August,
when he captured the whole of the enemy's pickets
with a far inferior force. For these services he re-
ceived the gold medal from the Grand Seignor,
and he also had the silver war medal with one
clasp. But he was one of those who suffered from
the great disadvantage of being sent to the West
Indies on foreign service on the outbreak of the
great European war, the Peninsula and Waterloo,
so that he had no opportunity of sharing in the
glories and in the promotions which fell to the lot
of his more fortunate comrades, and his career from
1810, when he became a captain, was so slow that
it was 20 years before he attained the rank of major.
He was appointed Commandant of Tiibury Fort,
where he discharged the duties, which were more
onerous than might be supposed, with zeal and
ability for 46 years, and only retired in consequence
of age and infirmity a short time ago, with the rank
of major-general. He leaves an aged widow to de-
plore his :oss. By his death a good service pension
is rendered disposable.

If Wales. His royal highness is very sensible of the

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-'—This Day,

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTEMPTED MURDER OF A FEMALE BY MER PARA-
MOUR.—Henry Broughton, a well-dressed young man,
described as a decorator of glass, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt as follows:
Susan Latteney, of 11, Old Compton-street, said—l live
with the prisoner, and yesterday, about 12 o'clock, I went
out to get some money for the prisoner, who lives upon me.
He promised to meet me in Regent-street, and he did so
about ) o'clock. He asked me how much I had got, and I
said, " A sovereign," and gave it to him. He said that
was not enough, and I was to get more. I then met another
gentleman, and I went with him to Oxenden-street,
the prisoner following, as was his habit. The gentleman
gave me three sovereigns, which I gave to the prisoner,
whe had been waiting for me opposite the house I went to
with the gentlemen. Ihe prisoner then asked me if that
was all the gentleman had given me, and on my telling him
it wa., he said he must have more, as he wanted £2O that
w.ek. He than demanded my watch and chain, and on
my giving them to him he said, " Now, I'll tear all your
clothes off." He then knocked me down in the road, tore
my hair and clothes, and tried to cut my throat with a
penknife with a white handle. A number of women came
up an i called the prisoner a brute, and some of them
scratched his face. He then get into a cab and went off,
leavieg me halt naked, and without a penny. I then went
to my mother's house in Chapel-street, where he afterwards
came and beat me about the head in a most violent manner
with a stick, and also again attempted to cut my throat with
a penknife. He was afterwards given into custody.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—How long have you lived with the pri-
soner ?

Prosecutor—About two years.
The mother of the prosecutrix corroborated her as to a
portion of her statement.

Mr, Tyrwhitt—Prisoner what have you got to say.
Prisoner set up a cowardly defence, at the same time
crying.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—A more base and cowardly life a man could
not lead than you (prisoner) have been leading, and then
you use brute force to the female upon you have been living,
and who evidently has been living with you from fear and
some sort of infatuation which I cannot understand. You
are a cowardly ruffian, and when you find hat the law is
going to be put in force against you for your brutal conduct
you begin crying. You will go for six months with hard
labour, and at the end of that time find two bails of £lO
each to keep tha peace for 12 months.
The prosecutax—lie has threatened to murder me if I do
not live with him.
