THAMES.

FEMALE OUTRAGE.—Sarah Williams, aged 21, and Mary
Smith, 21, two audacious and vulgar women, were brought
before Mr. Partridge charged with stealing a gold brooch
and a gold chain from Mrs. Elizabeth Berry and assaulting
her.

The complainant, a very respectable and lady-like
woman, is the wife of Mr. Berry, a master carpenter, of the
White Cottage, Chadwell-heath, Essex, and who also
collects the rents of houses in Stepney and Limehouse.
Last night, at 11 o'clock, Mr. and Mrs. Berry were in
Whitehouse-lane, Stepney, parting with a friend, when the
prisoners and two other women, who are dwelling in some
houses in North-street, Limehouse, where Mr. Berry calls
weekly for rent, halloaed out to the husband, " Berry, are
you not going to stand some gin ?" At the same time
they pushed against Mrs. Berry, who said she did
not know them, and begged of them to keep their
own company. The prisoners and their companions
instantly attacked Mrs. Berry in a savage manner. They
struck her with their fists and knocked her down ; Wil-
liams fell upon her and tore the hair out of her head, and
Smith knelt upon her and pummelled her unmercifully.
Mrs. Berry, who acted with great courage, seized Smith
by the throat, who bit Mrs. Berry's hand, kicked, plunged,
and acted in a most desperate manner. Mr. Berry kept the
other forces at bay, and was beaten, scratched, and kicked.
His wife lost her brooch and chains, valued at £lO, in the
struggle, but could not say whether the prisoners or their
companions took them or not. Her parasol and hair-net
were destroyed, and a valuable white straw hat torn in the
struggle. The back of her right hand was lacerated with
teeth marks, and her face and forehead contused and
scratched.

Mr. Berry, Mrs. Ann Levy, and other witnesses confirmed
the account of Mrs. Berry, and added that when Mrs. Berry
said " I don't know you, my good woman, and want to
have nothing to do with you," Smith said, "You -
dolly, I'll make you know me,' and struck her with her
fist on the face, and tore her hat off.

James Taylor, No. 359 K, said that when he came to the
assistance of Mrs. Berry, she had hold of Smith ; her hands
were bleeding, and her hair was in a disorderly state about
her shoulders. The prisoners were much excited. They
were bad characters.

Mr. Partridge said the prisoners had committed a very
gross assault on Mrs. Berry. They acted like cannibals in
biting and scratching a respectable woman, who would not
give them gin. He fined the prisoners £3 each, and in
default six weeks' imprisonment and hard labour.

Liverpool Cotton Market—This Day.

MIDLAND.

An adjourned special meeting of this company was held
at Derby on Wednesday; Mr. W. H. Hutchinson in the
chair.

The CHAIRMAN said the only bill he had to submit was a
bill to authorise the construction of the Skipton and
Wharfdale Junction Railway. It started from the Little
North-Western Railway near Broughton, and as originally
brought in joined the North-Eastern line at Leyburn.
The bill was, however, opposed by the North-Eastern
Company, and the northern end of the line was not passed.
Now it was merely a railway from the neighbourhood of
Skipton to Linton, and to the neighbourhood of the
valuable lead mines near Grassington. The powers given
by the bill were strictly permissive, and they thought if
the promoters were willing to construct the line at their
own expense it might be worth while for the Midland
Railway to work the traffic for them„'
The motion for the approval of the bill was carried nem.
con., and the meeting was then further adjourned to the
loth inst.

cent accidents so very similar in their nature, to be
restored.

The inquest upon the remains of the deceased
will be opened formally this afternoon, but, pending
complete identification, will probably be adjourned
till Monday next.

FURTHER PARTICULARS—(THIS DAY).
The terrible accident to the tidal express train at
present appears to have resulted from a cause for
which the railway company cannot be blamed. It
is now well known that repairs were going on at
the spot where the accident occurred, and the plate-
layers, who were the parties engaged, were furnished
with the particulars of the times at which the trains
arrived from the Continent and other places. Ac-
cording to the June time table, the first tidal ex-
press on Tuesday left Dover at 8.45, and arrived in
London at 10.55. On Wednesday, however, it left
Dover at 2.30, and arrived in London at 4.40 ; the
same on Thursday ; and on Friday it ought to have
been at Charing-cross at the same hour ; but,
through the inattention of the platelayers, such un-
fortunately was not the case, because they never,
it would seem, referred to the time-table. If they
did they must have mistaken the day and he ti, and
removed the rails from the spot, thinking that the
tidal express was not due until. 6 45, which was the
time set for its arrival to-day, in consequence of the
state of the tide at Folkstone. For the next six
days the tidal train is due at Charing-cross at 6 45,
and the great misfortune seems to have been incurred
by the mistake the men made in removing the rails
yesterday and not replacing them before 20 minutes
to five. If such turns out to be the actual state of the
case the charge against the platelayers will assume a
very serious form, and a jury will have to give their
opinion as to whether it does not amount to man-
slaughter.

SCOTCH REGISTRATION BILL.

On the motion of the LORD ADVOCATE, the order of
the day for the second reading of this bill was discharged.

LOCKING UP RAILWAY CARRIAGES.

Sir W. GALWEY inquired if the President of the Board
of Trade possessed any power which he could exercise to
prevent the locking up of passengers in railway trains.
Mr. M. GIBSON replied in the negative.
LAW OF EVIDENCE BILL.

Sir G. GREY, in reply to Sir Fitroy Kelly, stated that
it was not likely Government would be able to proceed
with this bill on llanday next.
FIRE BRIGADE BILL.

Mr. T. G. BARING, in reply to Mr. Hankey, said the
Government would probably proceed with this bill on
Thursday next.

IRISH CONSTABULARY.

Mr. BLAKE called attention to what he termed the
general practice on the part of the Irish constabulary of
handcuffing prisoners on their way to and from the place
of detention.

Mr. WHITESIDE complained of the custom of the
Dublin police in stripping females and boys in their cus-
tody for the purpose of searching them.
....

Sir H. CAIRNS directed attention to an arbitrary and
violent exercise of power on a recent occasion by some of
the constabulary in Belfast.
Sir R. PEEL promised that the subjects referred to by
Mr Whiteside and Sir H. Cairns should receive conside-
ration, and that he would communicate with the local
authorities respecting them. With regard to the alleged
practice, so justly reprobated by Mr. Blake, whilst ad-
mitting that there might be cases of harshness, he denied
that the practice could be truly described as general. The
code of regulations enjoined upon the constabulary that
they should show the utmost leniency towards prisoners.
lie would take care, however, to institute an inquiry into
the matter.

DIPE.RIAL PARLIADIENT

HOUSE. OF COMMONS—LAST EVENING.
The house resumed at six o'clock.
GREENWICH HOSPITAL BILL.

_____. ....._
Sir J. PASINGTON gave notice that he would, on the
bringing up of the report on this bill, move the omission
of clause 14.

Sir J. HAY gave notice that he would, on the same
occasion. move the omission from the 11th clause of the
words, " and of the governor."
CASE OF WALTER CRAYTHORNE.

Mr. COX asked the Secretary of State for the Home De-
partment if his attention had been called to the sentence
passed by the Rev. W. Wales, at Uppingham, on a lad
named Walter Cray thorne, of 21 days' imprisonment, with
hard labour, for absenting himself for a short time from
the service of his master, Mr. Needham, notwithstanding
Mr. Needham entreated that a week's imprisonment only
should be given the lad.

Sir G. GREY said he knew nothing whatever of the
case. Should it be brought to his notice, he would in-
form the.hon. gentleman of the fact.

CASE OF SIR RICHARD BROMLEY.
Sir J. PAKINGTON complained that the papers in re-
ference to the case of Sir Richard Bromley moved for some
time ago by the hon. baronet the member for Stamford
were not yet in the hands of members.
Mr. CHILDERS said they had been laid upon the table
the previous evening, and were now in the hands of the
printer.

COLONEL DAWKINS.
Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the Under Secretary of State
for War whether it was the intention of the military autho-
rities to take any official notice of the letter published by
Lieut.-Colonel Dawkins on the Ist of June, contradicting
the statements respecting his case which had been put for-
ward by those authorities.
The Marquis of HARTINGTON said he had no oppor-
tunity of consulting with either the Commander-in-Chief
or the Secretary at War on the subject. It would, however,
be a most inconvenient thing to take official notice of any
letter which was addressed to a public journal. He was
alone responsible for the statement he had made, which was
substantially correct ; but he certainly was not going to
enter into a correspondence with Colonel .Dawkins on the
subject.

Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked if the house was to understand
that for the future they were to take the noble lord's state-
ments as made on his own responsibility, and not as in any
way pledging the Commander-in-Chief or the Secretary
for War.

The Marquis of HARTINGTON said ho was personally
responsible for any statements he might make.

SOUTH KENSINGTON ROADS BILL.
LOrd GALWAY complained that the hon. gentleman the
member for Poole, having given notice of his intention to
move the recommital of this bill, which had been already
thrown out by a select committee, had not attended to make
his motion, and had thereby caused great inconvenience to
those who attended to oppose the motion.

Mr. H. DANBY SEYMOUR regretted the occasion of the
inconvenience complained of. The simple explanation was
that he had not attended the morning sitting under the im-
pression that it would be competent for him to bring for-
ward his motion at the evening sitting. He would renew
his motion on Thursday next.

van was in the middle of the train. Was not aware of any
rule regulating the number of carriages for excursions.
In further examination the witness said he had been
guard four years. Did not consider 32 carriages an un-
usually heavy train. He should consider 40 carriages so.
Could have stopped the train in many places in half a mile,
and in the place where the accident happened could have
stopped it in three-quarters of a mile or a mile. He only
felt the bumping for a few minutes before the train stopped
and the accident happened. They were brought to a stand
at five minutes to 2 p.m. Thought the train had been
travelling at the rate of from 35 to 40 miles an hour.
By Mr. Jones—The cause of the delay at Chester was
their waiting for the Birkenhead portion of the train to
arrive. They also had to transfer the passengers of three
large carriages of the Birkenhead line to five of their off'
The witness gave similar replies to the engine-driver Evens
to questions as to the duties of the platelayers when the line
was under repair. The stationmaster at the startin
(Chester) regulated the number of guards and breaks.
William Anderton, the drive; died last night. William
Davis, Jonathan How, James Wharton, and Ann Barber are
much worse, and lie in a precarious state. The rest, with the
exception of Mr. Hughes, whose case is hopeless, are pro-
gressing favourably. The inquest was resumed yesterday
on the bodies at Rednal, and evidence was taken from the
driver of the first engine at great length, and in a most
searching manner, but nothing was elicited from him tend-
ing to show the real cause of the accident.
vi
The evidence of two guards and several platelayers a./
also taken. g-place
During the day the whole of the remaining bodies were
identified, and were described as William Edward Owen, 0'
No. 11, High-street, Southampton, an engineer on board a
steamboat, who has left a widow and five children ; Annie
Collinard, of Warrington, a child nine years old ; Charles
Allen, his wife and son, of No. 9, Denmark-street, St.
Giles's, London—they had been on a visit to Mrs. Allen
mother.
The inquest was adjourned till to-day.

opposition Lr tit had been made to the Reform Bill of
1859. Mr 'ROEBUCK quoted his own words to the
present Go vernment when they were on the other
side of the house. He said, " You cannot carry a
Reform lii 11; the others can ; they offer us some-
thing, it Ni ill be wise to take it." They did not take
it, and the result has been what Mr. ROEBUCK pre-
dicted—tha t there has been no Reform Bill at all.
Now, as the hon.. and learned member informed his
constituents, the members of the Government are
all coming round and advocating the principles of
Lord DERBY'f,S Reform Bill. Mr. LOWE, Mr.
OSBORNE, and Sir G. GREY have all recently spoken
in that style; they wish the franchise to be extended,
but not lowered. Mr. ROEBUCK also spoke very
sensibly on. the Permissive Bill, his opposition to
which had caused great disapprobation to some of
his constituents. He said very truly that it was an
unequal measure, and that the rich man can have
his seller stored with wine, and also that it would
have gown turmoil broadcast through the country. In
every parish there would have been a fight between
the teetotal men and the rest of the parish. Taking
into account the general tenour of Mr. ROEBUCK'S
speech, the vote of confidence which was finally
carried by at least ten to one was satisfactory, and
in the present posture of affairs the House of Com-
mons can ill spare such a man from its debates, for
he will speak the truth in defiance of conven-
tionalities and in spite of red-tapists.

cent accidents so very similar in their nature, to be
restored.

The inquest upon the remains of the deceased
will be opened formally this afternoon, but, pending
complete identification, will probably be adjourned
till Monday next.

FURTHER PARTICULARS—(THIS DAY),
The terrible accident to the tidal express train at
present appears to have resulted from a cause for
which the railway company cannot be blamed. It
is now well known that repairs were going on at
the spot where the accident occurred, and the plate-
layers, who were the parties engaged, were furnished
with the particulars of the times at which the trains
arrived from the Continent and other places. Ac-
cording to the June time table, the first tidal ex-
press on Tuesday left Dover at 8.45, and arrived in
London at 10.55. On Wednesday, however, it left.
Dover at 2.30, and arrived in London at 4.40 ; the
same on Thursday ; and on Friday it ought to have
been at Charing-cross at the same hour ; but,
through the inattention of the platelayers, such un-
fortunately was not the case, because they never,
it would seem, referred to the time-table. If they
did they must have mistaken the day and hour, and
removed the rails from the spot, thinking that the
tidal express was not due until 6 45, which was the
time set for its arrival to-day, in consequence of the
state of the tide at Folkstone. For the next six
days the tidal train is due at Charing-cross at 6 45,
and the great misfortune seems to have been incurred
by the mistake the men made in removing the rails
yesterday and not replacing them before 20 minutes
to five. If such turns out to be the actual state of the
case the charge against the platelayers will assume a
very serious form, and a jury will have to give their
opinion as to whether it does not amount to man-
slaughter.

LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1865.

Sudden and unexpected success is proverbially try-
ing, and there are not so many persons who are
capable of showing moderation in prosperity as for-
titude in adversity. Still, when we have to deal
with nations, and not with individuals, we have a
right to expect that the wisdom and magnanimity of
the few will temper the violence and malignity of
the many ; that the voices of justice and mercy will
be heard above the tumult, and that the calmness
and dignity befitting a whole people will not be en-
tirely forgotten, even amidst the intoxication of
MICCCSS. This expectation has as yet been miserably
disappointed in the conduct of the American people
in their moment of sudden power. There is no
doubt that the transition was sufficiently ab-
ruPt and startling to allow for much extra-
:gance of word and action during the
first excitement, and especially under the
tempest of indignation created by the murder of
Mr. LINCOLN, which designing schemers were not
wanting to direct towards the South. But when all
due allowance has been made for the passions of the
hour, and when not only the first days but
the first weeks have passed over, we have
a right to expect, in these days of civilisation
and moral progress, that a nation which
claims so high a rank, which boasts so
loudly of the freedom, the intelligence, and the edu-
cation of its people, will show some little regard to
the prompting of humanity and Christian civilisa-
tion. To maltreat the fallen, to persecute the help-
less, to oppress those when weak whom we respected
when strong, are qualities which are supposed only
to belong to the uncultured savage, or to the repre-
sentative of that heathen civilisation which is but
barbarism in disguise. Yet these qualities, so justly
contemned by most men of the present day, have
been shown with painful distinctness in the treat-
ment of the Southern leaders by the Washington
Government. It is true that the credit, or
rather discredit, (g such acts may be justly awarded

SOUTH-EASTERN.

The adjourned special general meeting of this company
were held yesterday at the Bridge-house Hotel, London-
bridge, to receive the results of the polls demanded on
Thursday ; the Hon. J. Byng in the chair.
Mr. Smiles, the secretary, read the notice of adjourn-
ment, and the result of the poll taken in respect of a bill
now before Parliament for making an extension line from
Greenwich to Woolwich, and also an extension near Maid-
stone.

From the report of the scrutineers, Messrs. Smith and
Kerr, it appeared that 54 proprietors present, holding
£331,510 stock in the company, and 54 proxies representing
£103,050 stock, making together 108 persons in person and
by proxylholding in the aggregate£434,s6o stock, recorded
their approval of the bill. The number of proprietors pre-
sent who recorded their votes against the resolution, and
in favour of Mr. Hamilton's amendment to postpone the
further consideration of the bill was four, holding .43,620
stock, leaving a majority of 104 proprietors, representing
£430,940 stock in favour of the bill.
Mr. ADAMS said the cause of the minority being so small
arose from Mr. Hamilton and his friends not voting on the
question. Mr. Hamilton alone held £33,000 stock in the
company.

The CHAIRMAN declared the motion carried. He had,
however, to inform the proprietors that he was not then in
a position to declare the, poll on the question of appointing a
committee of investigation, as the scrutineers (Mr. G. Smith
and lifr. T. Adams) had not made their report. He would,
therefore, adjourn the meeting till 12 o'clock on Monday
next to receive the result of the poll.

Mr. ADAMS said there were three very important points
to be decided in respect of the proxies, and that it would be
necessary to appoint a referee to decide the question.

The CHAIRMAN said that if Mr. Adams would state his
objections he would take a legal opinion upon them.
Mr. G. SMITH saw no difficulty whatever in the matter.
He had asked Mr. Adams to state his objections to the
meeting, but he had declined to do so. ;
Mr. WATRIN, M.P., deputy chairman, remarked that the
object of parties honest in tho transaction was to obtain
the immediate declaration of the poll, in order that the com-
mittee, if appointed, might proceed as soon as they thought
fit with their labours. Any man who was honest in this
matter would throw over technicalities with a view that
the trial that had been challenged might come off at the
earliest possible moment. They on the directors' side of the
table had done all they could to expedite the investigation,
and the objections raised did not come from them. He
thought, without breach of confidence, he might state that
there were serious objections to Mr. Hamilton's proxies, but
the directors had not raised them, because they considered
that if gentlemen sent their proxies, whether they were
strictly legal or not, it was at all events an expression of
their opinion, and that whatever the technicalities might
be they had an equitable right to the votes.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceed-
ings, and the meeting adjourned till Monday.

THAMES.

FEMALE OUTRAGE.—Sarah Williams, aged 21, and Mary
Smith, 21, two audacious and vulgar women, were brought
before Mr. Partridge charged with stealing a gold brooch
and a gold chain from Mrs. Elizabeth Berry and assaulting
her.
The complainant, a very respectable and lady-like
woman, is the wife of Mr. Berry, a master carpenter, of the
White Cottage, Chadwell-heath, Essex, and who also
collects the rents of houses in Stepney and Limehouse.
Last night, at 11 o'clock, Mr. and Mrs. Berry were in
Whitehouse-lane, Stepney, parting with a friend, when the
prisoners and two other women, who are dwelling in some
houses in North-street, Limehouse, where Mr. Berry calls
weekly for rent, halloaed out to the husband, " Berry, are
you not going to stand some gin ?" At the same time
they pushed against Mrs. Berry, who said she did
not know them, and begged of them to keep their
own company. The prisoners and their companions
instantly attacked Mrs. Berry in a savage manner. They
struck her with their fists and knocked her down ; Wil-
liams fell upon her and tore the hair out of her head, and
Smith knelt upon her and pummelled her unmercifully.
Mrs. Berry, who acted with great courage, seized Smith
by the throat, who bit Mrs. Berry's hand, kicked, plunged,
and acted in a most desperate manner. Mr. Berry kept the
other forces at bay, and was beaten, scratched, and kicked.
His wife lost her brooch and chains, valued at £lO, in the
struggle, but could not say whether the prisoners or their
companions took them or not. Her parasol and hair-net
were destroyed, and a valuable white straw hat torn in the
struggle. The back of her right hand was lacerated with
teeth marks, and her face and forehead contused and
scratched.

Mr. Berry, Mrs. Ann Levy, and other witnesses confirmed
the account of Mrs. Berry, and added that when Mrs. Berry
said " I don't know you, my good woman, and want to
have nothing to do with you," Smith said, "You -
dolly, I'll make you know me," and struck her with her
fist on the face, and tore her hat off.
James Taylor, No. 359 K, said that when he came to the
assistance of Mrs. Berry, she had hold of Smith ; her hands
were bleeding, and her hair was in a disorderly state about
her shoulders. The prisoners were much excited. They
were bad characters.

Mr. Partridge said the prisoners had committed a very
gross assault on Mrs. Berry. They acted like cannibals in
biting and scratching a respectable woman, who would not
give them gin. He fined the prisoners £3 each, and in
default six weeks' imprisonment and hard labour.

van was in the middle of the train. Was not aware of any
rule regulating the number of carriages for excursions.
In further examination the witness said he had been
guard four years. Did not consider 32 carriages an un-
usually heavy train. He should consider 40 carriages so.
Could have stopped the train in many places in half a mile,
and in the place where the accident happened could have
stopped it in three-quarters of a mile or a mile. He only
felt the bumping for a few minutes before the train stopped
and the accident happened. They were brought to a stand
at five minutes to 2 p.m. Thought the train had been
travelling at the rate of from 35 to 40 miles an hour.
By Mr. Jones—The cause of the delay at Chester was
their waiting for the Birkenhead portion of the train to
arrive. They also had to transfer the passengers of three
large carriages of the Birkenhead line to five of their own.
The witness gave similar replies to the engine-driverEvan°
to questions as to the duties of the platelayers when the line
was under repair. The stationmaster at the starting-Place
(Chester) regulated the number of guards and breaks.
William Anderton, the driver, died last night. William
Davis, Jonathan How, James Wharton, and Ann Barber are
much worse, and lie in a precarious state. The rest, with tbe
exception of Mr. Hughes, whose case is hopeless, are pro-
gressing favourably. The inquest was resumed yesterday
on the bodies at Rednal, and evidence was taken from the
driver of the first engine at great length, and in a most
searching manner, but nothing was elicited from him tend-
ing to show the real cause of the accident.
The evidence of two guards and several platelayers WO
also taken.

During the day the whole of the remaining bodies viere,
identified, and were described as William Edward Owen, 0'
No. 11, High-street, Southampton, an engineer on board s
steamboat, who has left a widow and five children ; Aerie
Collinard, of Warrington, a child nine years old ; Charles
Allen, his wife and son, of No. 9, Denmark-street, St'
Giles's, London—they had been on a visit to Mrs. Allens
mother.
The inquest was adjourned till to-day.
