Yesterday afternoon, the prosecutor and a shipmate
named Wm. Good were passing over Tower-hill, and saw a
large number of persons assembled around a man, who was
exhibiting a monkey. The sailors crossed the road to
witness the antics of the monkey, and were very shortly
surrounded by the thieves who congregate on the hill.
An attempt was made to steal Good's watch. He kept
his hand upon it and preserved it, and at the same time
called to Ingram, " Look out, Charley, for your
watch." The prisoner at that moment passed behind
Good, and drew Ingram's watch out of his pocket,
broke the swivel and detached it from the chain. The fellow
ran away with the watch and was instantly pursued by the
two sailors and others. Being closely pressed he threw
the watch under a cart. A young man named Henry
Williams picked up the watch. It was full of mud, and
while Williams was looking about for the owner he was
collared by a bystander, who believed he was acting in eon-
cert with the thief. His innocence, however, was quite
clear. The prisoner ran some distance with many persons
behind him vociferously bawling. " Stop thief." He was
caught by a police-constable named John Panter 196 H.
The prisoner said he was quite innocent of the robbery.

',Tenter—He has given a false address.
The prisoner—Why, you see I don't want them common
newspapers to publish where I live, because if they do others
may come down upon me.
Mr. Woolrych—lf you don't give your right name and
address I shall consider that very suspicious.
The prisoner—You see, my father's name was Nutt, and
my mother's name is Long, but I did not tell the policeman
that, because 1 dont want them common newspapers to say
anything about that.
A policeman said the prisoner had been in custody at that
court before.

The prisoner—Only on suspicion.
Mr. Woolrych There is no doubt you stole the sailor's
watch, and I shall remand you for inquiries until Saturday
next.

FRANTIC FREAKS OF A BULLOCK.

At en early hour yesterday morning a young
bullock broke from a herd that was being driven
along the Holloway-road. It dashed at full speed
towards the metropolis, creating the greatest terror
and alarm amongst the inhabitants and persons go-
ing to work. The animal was pursued by a few
drovers and butchers with an intent to turn him
back to the drove, but the pursuers being joined by
a number of boys and others, he was driven into a
frantic state by their yells and shouts, the barking
of dogs, &c. The infuriate animal rushed with tail
erect, and horns ploughing the ground, down a
turning through which there was no outlet, and
turning round he made a furious dash through the
crowd, who were guarding the entrance, and ima-
gined they had him secure ; but in this they were
deceived, as with a frantic bound he escaped, over-
turning several persons, two of whom—John Best,
a butcher, and a lad named Wilson—were much in-
jured by the beast trampling on them. Onward
th'i animal sped at an increased rate of speed, and
coming into contact with the tail grating of a wag-
gon loaded with hay, a severe gash was inflicted
on his shoulder. This occurrence rendered him
more furious, and after bellowing for a moment
or two he set off again, and in his mad career
caught a woman on his horns; fortunately her
clothes, which were torn to pieces, saved her life. His
mad race was soon after this terrninnted, for in en-
deavouring to pass between two waggons he got
jammed, and being released fell panting and worn
out to the ground,
in which position he was secured
by his pursuers.

THE GLASGOW MURDER

A memorial to the Lords of the Treasury has
been prepared by some of the citizens of Glasgow,
calling for the publication of the grounds of the
decision to which the Home Secretary has advised
her Majesty, viz., commuting Mrs. M‘Lachlan's
sentence to that of penal servitude for life. The
memorialists state :—" Had there been any reason
with
to suppose that the prisoner was not guilty of the
crime
of the it h
Royal which
prerogative she was charged, thenell b thee
exer-
cise
applied;
of
but the commuted sentence g penal servitude (for
life excludes any other idea than that the Home
Secretary was acting under the hypothesis of the
prisoner's guilt, and that he had • not been convinced
of the convict's innocence by the proceedings taken
under the secret investigation. If so, then the
question arises, why has the prisoner been relieved
of the capital punishment ? The memorialists feel,
therefore, that a searching inquiry is necessary
into the whole facts. A public trial by judge
and jury has been set aside, and a private investi-
gation by a secret tribunal has usurped its deci-
cision. A serious blot has been inflicted upon the
due administration of public justice, and men of cha-
racter and independence will act with reluctance as
jurymen for the future, if their honest verdicts are
to be set aside by a secret tribunal. Finally, your
memorialists beg most earnestly to call your
lordship's attention to the fact that the remission
of sentence in the case of the prisoner, without
any explanation, has the tendency, in terms of
her ' statement,' to point to a man as the criminal
who is untried, presumed to be innocent, and there-
by to inflict upon that individual and his posterity
a wrong of the most cruel desoription."

life Was in jeopardy. Be only knew Roger ~Livesey before,
but saw Richmond in court on Tuesday week. He identified
John Livesey and Ashton in the police-court, and appre-
hended Richmond, whose door was smashed in doing it.
It was in consequence of his inforrai2tion that the persons
he had named were apprehended.
Thomas Houlien, inspector of the boroub-rh police force,
was present last Thursday evening when the _Riot Act was
read by the mayor, about half-past 7 o'clock. ki e had been
about the Town-hall before that time, and did Oa know
that several magistrates had declined to read it.
John Dugdale, engraver, of No. 1, Strawberry-b,lntr,
said he remembered being In his shop last Thursday after-
noon, and had his attention called to the street by loud'
sh.uting and yelling. When he got to the door he saw a
crowd coming up from the town towas ds his shop, and the
whole road was blocked up with the crowd. The game-
keepers and two policemen came into his shop, and a stone
thrown at the window broke a pane of glass and passed
close by his head. He took the keepers for safety upstairs.
One of the policemen was sick, and his head wounded.
They remained in the house for nearly half an hour. The
conduct of the crowd terrified them. He went to the
police-office to get more police officers and a cab to convey
the keepers away. He saw the gamekeepers get into the
cab, and when the driver had proceeded a few yards stones
were sent at the cab, and the driver turned back aid drove
the keepers towards the Town-hall. The crowd dispeorse sin
panes of glass in the front wit:dow were broken. He Yiras
not assailed.
Thomas Walmesley, cab-driver, said he took up four
keepers from Mr. Dugdale's last Th,ursday, but in driving.

lecting stones, and turned back, driving" the keepers to the

Throne. This measure did not reunite the provinces I
to the kingdom of Poland, but it detach d them
from the Administration of St. Petersburg, nd little
more was necessary to melt into one the two Ad-
ministrations whose seat was in the sam capital. It
would have sufficed to give to the b, ther of the
Emperor, already residing in Warsaw, already com-
mander-in-chief of the two armies, the viceroyalty
of those two portions of the country. But at that

time the very existence of these two armies distinct
from that of Russia might have caused a fear lest
the administrative separation might become the
prelude to an inevitable rupture.
This danger no longer exists. The Poles have no
distinct army. There is now only one for the whole
Russian empire, and the most devoted patriots of
Poland in making their demands in full do not
think it necessary to ask the Czar to grant them one
national regiment. All they desire is that the inha-
bitants of that part of Poland which produced Kos•
ciusko, Nlickievicz, and the Czartoryski family may
be governed as Poles. They have no wish to injure
Russia or to keep her in that constant state of irrita-

tion from which it is evident she cannot escape until
she recognises the legitimate claims of all her Polish
subjects. At the present moment this curious ano-
maly is represented in the Russian empire. In one
portion Alexander 11. is endeavouring to introduce
trial by jury, and a law equivalent to our Habeas
Corpus Act; in another he is ruling by the sword,
and striving to maintain a system based entirely
on the barbarous right of conquest. To carry out
Anglo-Saxon principles and Mongol principles side
by side will be found a more difficult task than to
govern Russians as Russians and Poles as Poles.

Mr. Brittan—Do you want to call any witnesses, captain?
Captain Matthias replied in the negative, and said no one
was capable of knowing, The witness existed between God
and himself. He stood entirely on his own responsibility.
His responsibility ran thus—to suffer whatever the law and
whatever man could place upon him. He stood as a being
to suffer, and he would suffer whatever the law or anything
could force on him. He would stand and suffer for it what-
ever it might be, at any moment or at any time.
The court,was cleared for the deliberation of the commit-
tee, and after a short interval, upon its being re-opened,
The Chairman said—We have come to our decision in
this painful case, and Mr. Britten will now read it.
Mr. Brittan read the following :—"That this board do re-
Fort to the Board of Trade as follows :—" That Capt. Henry
Mathias, late master of the barque Usk, of Newport, on a
voyage of that vessel from Newport to Caldera, Which
voyage commenced on or about the Ist day of June last, did,
when the said vessel had arrived off or near Cape Horn,
whilst under a mental delusion, and without any proper or
sufficient cause or reason, instead of proceeding on the
said voyage, put the said vessel back and return with her
to Newport aforesaid; and that this board considers Cap-
tain Mathias to be still labouring under such delusion, and
incompetent to take charge or act as master of any ship or
vessel, and this board doth, therefore, cancel the certificate
of the said Captain Mathias."

Captain Mathias promised to give up his certificate forth-
with.

ASTHMATIC BALSAM, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and incipient con-
sumption. It frequently cures, persons whom the faculty
pronounce incurabie, admirably allays the tickling which pro-
vokes frequent coughing. In approaching consumption its
effects are truly beneficial. Persons deprived of sleep, or even
lying down for fear of suffocation, may depend on relief in
a few minutes after taking it. Prepared only and sold by

The dealings in the Railway Share Market have

have generally shown a❑ upward tendency, owing
to the limited amount of stock in the hands of

THE CONDEMNED MURDERERS.

An answer has been received from the Secretary of State
for the Home D apartment to the memorial forwarded by
the Messrs. Lewis, of Ely-place, on behalf of the con-
demned convict Gardener. The:letter is to the effect
that no sufficient grounds have been shown to justify the
Home Secretary interfering with the due execution of the
law.

With respect to Cooper, all attempts to obtain a remis-
sion of the sentence of death have, up to the present time,
proved of no avail.

somewhat active, and in some few instances the quotations
had an upward tendency, a few Scots having realised 5s

rency. With sheep we were rather scantily supplied. never-
theless the mutton trade was in a sluggish state on former
terms. Downs sold at 5s 6d to 5s 8d per 81b. Calves—the
supply of which was good —were a slow sale, but not
cheaper. The best veal was worth 5s per 81b. This com-
manded full prices, but milch cows were dull,

" Under which king, BellZolliall P—speak, or die !"

As with the Greeks in regard to their King—
so now it is with the electors of Southampton in
regard to their future representative. Since the
earliest tidings of the melancholy accident which
deprived the electors of that borough of their old
member, the late Mr. BRODIE WILcoX, the eminent
shipowner—in his fate, far more than—

is . . . prope funeratue
Arboris iota I"
having been actually killed, at the age of seventy-
eight, by the falling branch of a tree then being
felled on his estate : sines the first startling intelli-

gence of this deplorable accident to Mr. WILCOX,
candidates as numerous as the would-be Kings of
Greece have been offering themselves to the electors

of Southampton as aspiring to the good fortune o
being the successor chosen to the seat left vacan
by their late veteran representative. Among
all these candidates we content ourselves with
particularising those two who, among them all, may
be regarded, in respect to time, at least, as the first
and the last to have made their appearance. Others
there are, upon whose eagerly advanced claims we
might have had some small temptation to expatiate,
but for the rather conclusive circumstance of their
advances having been already now, to all intents and
purposes, withdrawn from the threatened contest.
Conspicuous among theme now " scratched"
competitors being that master of oratory, Mr.
GEORGE THOMPSON (whom, under happier auspices,
we should be right glad to see once more admitted
into the ranks of the independent members below
the gangway on the Liberal side of the House of
Commons), and—the strangest contrast to Mr.
GEORGE THOMPSON—the late Right Hon. the Lord
Mayor of the City of London, now once more
Mr. WILLIAM CUBITT, the worthy Conservative
Alderman, or Lord Mayor as he was then! Who, it
may be remembered, came so disagreeably (for him)
to the ground between those two softly-cushioned
seats, that of himself as M.P. then in ease (which
he threw up) at • Andover, and that (as he
thought) as M.P. in posse (which he grasped
at) in London ! Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON, it
is true, still maintains his ground at South-
ampton—with but feeble chance, however, it is
to be feared by even his most sanguine friends
of making a worthy appearance anywhere
but on the hustings. The contest is likely to lie, as
we have said, between the first come and the last
come of the candidates for the votes of the men of
Southampton. Between Captain MANGLES and
the present Lord Mayor (RosE) of the City of Lon-
don, like the last Lord Mayor (CtrEITT), himself a
Conservative. We look with confidence to the deci-
sion of the liberal constituency of Southampton—to
the decision, of course, triumphantly and unmistak-
ably in favour of Captain MANGLES, the Liberal
candidate.

(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
Sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by means of his patented soft elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity, dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings, and defying detection by tne closest
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary construction, they are guaranteed tc last a life

GOSSIPS, AND HOW THEY ARE MADE.—I am
inclined to think that gossips, male and female, do not
begin by being malicious. This is the way it happens :
Their minds being uninformed and uncultivated, and their
own lives meagre and barren of interest, they naturally fall
to watching those about them, to see if they cannot extract
a little pleasureable excitement:, from the contemplation of
,
their neighbours. The task *Ms by what it feeds on
and lacking the elements of the marvellous, at any time,
what easier than for them to supply it, and make the story
a round one, at any sacrifice ? In proportion as the mind
is cultivated, things, not persons, engage its attention. Had
women as many resources as men, female
gossips would be
scarce in proportion. Mothers, not only for this, but other
obvious reasons, should early cultivate a taste for reading
in their daughters. A young girl has then a resource
against the corroding rust of unemployed hours, not only
iu youth but in her old age, if Unsurrounded by domestic

THAMES.

ROBBERY ON TOWER-TALL.—John Long, a well-
known thief, was brought bdore Mr. Woolrych, charged
with stealing a silver watch from a sailor named Charles
Ingram, on Tower-hill.

Yesterday afternoon, the prosecutor and a shipmate
named Vim. Good were passing over Tower-hill, and saw a
large number of persons assembled around a man, who was
exhibiting a monkey. The sailors crossed the road to
witness the antics of the monkey, and were very shortly
surrounded by the thieves who congregate on the hill.
An attempt was made to steal Good's watch. He kept
his hand upon it and preserved it, and at the same time
called to Ingram, " Look out, Charley. for your
watch." Tho prisoner at that moment passed behind
Good, and drew Ingram's watch out of his pocket,
broke the swivel and detached it from the chain. The fellow
ran away with the watch and was instantly pursued by the
two sailors and others. Being closely pressed he threw
the watch under a cart. A young man named Henry
Williams picked up the watch. It was full of mud, and
while Williams was looking about for the owner he was
collared by a bystander, who believed he was acting in con-
cert with the thief. His innocence, however, was quite
clear. The prisoner ran some distance with many persons
behind him vociferously bawling, " Stop thief." He was
caught by a police-constable named John Panter 196 H.
The prisoner said he was quite innocent of the robbery.
Panter—He has given a false address.

The prisoner—Why, you see I don't want them common
newspapers to publish where I live, because if they do others
may come down upon me.
Mr. Woolrych—lf you don't giva your right name and
address I shall consider that very suspicious.
The prisoner—You see, my father's name was Nutt, and
my mother's name is Long, but I did not tell the policeman
that, because 1 dont want them common newspapers to say
anything about that.

A policeman said the prisoner had been in custody at that
oourt before.

The prisoner—Only on suspicion.
Mr. Woolryeh There is no doubt you stole the sailor's
watch, and I shall remand you for inquiries until Saturday
next.
