ARTFUL ROBBERY OF It. FELLOW SERVANT.—CharIes
Baber, in the employ of Mr. Gorton, pork butcher, of
Tichborne-street, was charged with robbing a young man
named Richard Leonard, also in Mr. Gorton's employ, of
£4105., the robbery being effected in a very artful manner.
Charles Butcher, 137 C, said that on Tuesday night he
was informed that a robbery had taken place at Mr. Gor-
ton's in Tichborne-street, and on going there he found
that the attic window had been forced, and that it had been
done from the inside. He was then informed that a box
had been broken open in the attic, and the sum of £4 10s.
abstracted from the box belonging to a young man in Mr.
Gorton's employ named Leonard. Yesterday he was
shown Bs. which had been found concealed amongst
sume sage in the store-room. He at once marked
the money and put it back. This morning he
went to Mr. Gorton's and found the money had been taken
from the place where it had been deposited. He then
called the prisoner, who was also in Mr. Gorton's employ,
into the room, and told him that he was a police-officer,
and was going to take him into custody for the robbery on
Tuesday. He denied all knowledge of it, and he (Butcher)
then asked him how much money he had in his pockets,
and he said that he did not know. On searching him seven
half-sovereigns and Bs. in silver were found on him, all the
silver being that which had been marked, also a new cigar-
case, portemonnaie, and some new books.
Richard Leonard, in Mr. Gorton's employ, proved miss-
ing from his box £4los. in half-sovereigns, the box having
been broken open during his absence on Tuesday evening.
He could swear to one of the half sovereigns and to all the
silver, which he saw marked.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was one of the worst kinds of rob-
beries, and committed the prisoner for trial.

711 E INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

The payments yesterday were scarcely up to the
Friday's average, even of late, while all SdturdaYo
have recently shown a very marked diminution 10
number. Up to 5 o'clock yesterday the admissions
were—by payment, 15,066; by season tickets,
5,184 ; total, 20,250. The question of opening the
building on Saturday to shilling visitors is na-
turally more eagerly discussed now, as each suc-
ceeding week shows a falling off in the receipts
from half crowns on that day. It is quite true
that the 12,000 or 15,000 half-crowns represent in

money the amount taken on slack shilling
days, but it by no means follows from this that
a shilling Saturday would not largely surpass the
average of the very best days of the week. Rightly
or wrongly, the opinion is strongly entertained out
of doors that if Saturday were made a shilling day
now, at i
tythoirs
fassehaisoonnabolte
vthise year, when
are out
the
ontoftowgnr,eaarit
attendance of 70,000 or 80,000 shilling visitors
might with certainty be counted on. Upon this
result, however, we express no opinion one way or

the public in time, one day would be quite enough
to give an estimate of what might be expected from
its weekly continuance. At the same time We
would venture to suggest that, as the Council of
the, Horticultural Society and the Royal Comm'e"
sioners have always acted in concert with regard to
charges, the former should on these occasions reduce
their charge of admission to the gardens to a simple
threepenny fee. The charge of 6d. is only oeo-
tively supposed to answer because the lower scale
has never been tried, though last year the Councii
announced their intention of adopting it about this
time.

HEALTH OF GARIBALDI.

Mr. P. A. Taylor, M.P., who is at present at
Spezzia,writes:" The accounts we receive of Gari-
baldi are less unfavourable than we bad feared they
might be, but doubtless the wound in the foot is
very serious."

Of course we need scarcely remind our readers
that since Mr. Taylor wrote the above he has seen
Garibaldi, and telegraphed regarding his state.

The Cork papers inform us that the project of
the West Cork Railway is in a fair way of being carried
out.

Official notice has been published that the
Legislative Chambers of Denmark have been convoked to
meet at Copenhagen on the 4th of October next.
A new journal is about to be published at Nice,
under the title of the France Ateriodionale. ➢IM. Alexandre
Dumas, Mery, and Alphonse Karr will be among its
contributors.

A French journal states that Dr. Trousseau (one
of the most eminent physicians in Paris) is going to Spezzia
to see Garibaldi.

CHILD MunDEß.—Yesterday information was
forwarded to the different police stations of the discovery of
another female child, brutally murdered, and the body con-
cealed in a hedge in Windmill-lane, a short distance from
the Bcddington Railway Station, Croydon. There is no
doubt that a murder has been committed, and evory exer•
Lion is being made to discover the perpetrators.
MURDER OF A SHIPMASTER.—SHIELDS, Friday
Afternoon.—Mr. Sprague, a shipmaster, belonging to
Brixham, has just died in North Shields from a fracture of
the skull and other injuries sustained in an attack which
was made upon him by a man and a woman in the Borough-
road, last Sunday night. Mr. Erskine Mather, cf South
Shields, was also attacked by four ruffians last night in the
same neighbourhood, and robbed of his watch. The villains
are in custody.

A hostile and disorderly demonstration took place
two days since at Ixelles, roar Brussels, in front of a house,
Rue du Conseil, in which M. Proudhon, the well-known
French writer, occupied an apartment. It was, however,
promptly put down by the police. Precautions were taken
to prevent the recurrence of such manifestations, but they
were rendered unnecessary by M, Proudhon's departure the
next morning. The Brussels journals, which reprehend in
very severe terms the inhospitable conduct of the crowd,
do not specify any cause for the manifestation, but the
reason should probably be looked for in the language of an
article published by M. Proudhon, with his name, in a
Belgian journal, and in which he expresses himself with
great virulence against Italian unity, the Piedmontese
movement, and the whole series of events which have
withip, the last three years taken place on the soil of
Italy.

THE SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF A FEMALE
IN HAAT-COURT, HOLBORN-.

Yesterday afternoon. the inquiry touching the
death of Sarah Chan dler, who on Monday night
was found in the pi3.:3sage of the house, 12, Hand-
court, was resumed and concluded before Dr. Lan-
kester, at the Queel I's Arms, Red Lion-passage,
Holborn, when additional evidence was adduced.
The additional evi, deuce went to show that a
short time previous to i'eaching her home deceased
was at Messrs. Meekinw and Co.'s, Holborn, where
she called to ask the price of some blankets, and
where she was seen t o count her money, which
five
consisted of two sovereigns, a half sovereign,
half-crowns, and some halfpence. She went
home, and after bei:lg found, as has been already
-',
described, she was take rt upstairs to her room. When
searched next morning by her husband only 2 d.
and a watch were found i a her possession.

t
It further appeared front the evidence of a lodger
named Elizabeth Perkins, that when the deceased
was found in the passage her head was lying near
a large stone, which was used to keep the street
door open, and that it was possible her head might
come in collision with this stone.
After this evidence,

Mr. Valpy, in answer to the coroner, said that it
was not possible for the injury to have been inflicted
by a fall.
The Coroner having expressed a similar opinion,
and having minutely summed up the evidence,
The jury returned a verdict that the deceased
died from effusion of blood on the brain, caused by
the fracture of the base of the skull, but how or by
what means she came by the fracture there was not
sufficient evidence to show.

(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 toe 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 tr, last a life
time, as well as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

FATAL SCAFFOLD ACCIDENT.

Yesterday Dr. Lankester, the coroner for Central
Middlesex, held an inquest at the Silver Cup,
Cromer-street, Gray's.inn-road, touching the death
of Wm. Osmond, aged 59, a builder, of 7, Chapel-
street, Pentonville.
Mrs. E. A. Osmond, the wife of deceased, identified
the body, and attributed the cause of her bereave-
ment to the neglect of duty by two of her workmen
in the insecure ereotion of scaffold.

Charles Angell, cabinetmaker, in deceased's em-
ploy, deposed that he and Mr. Osmond were at
work at 11, James-street, Pentonville, on Tuesday
last. Shortly after three p.m. he left deceased on
the scaffold, to go into the house, and when he had
got inside the door he suddenly heard the scaffold
fall with a loud crash. He ran out, got deceased
out from under the debris of the seaffold, and re-
moved him to the hospital in a much injured condi-
tion. He could only account for the falling of the
scaffold by the centre putlog giving way from fall
ing out of the wall. The two labourers charged with
neglect had struck the top part of the scaffold by
order of deceased that day. Workmen had used the
scaffold with safety from last Monday week almost
up to the time of the occurrence_
John Moynahan, 13, James-street, a labourer in
Mr. Osmond's service, stated that he was putting
up another scaffold at 14, James-street, on Tuesday,
and being in want of a ledger deceased ordered him
to take the brace away from the scaffold that fell.
That brace was the main thing to keep the scaffold
safe. He believed that removal caused the accident;
but witness was compelled to remove it by deceased's
express orders. He denied any culpability, and
was supported in his denial by other evidence.
It was further shown that that was the cause of
the lamentable accident, and a verdict was recorded
of accidental death.

AN IMPORTANT DISCUSSION.—The
"`Times," the "Lancet," and other leading journals
have been lately canvassing the social considerations in-
volved in " the amount of death and disease caused by vice."
Some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the
inquiry ; but it would greatly add to their value if they in-
cluded the facts respecting the origin, the ravages, and the
prevention of that SPECIAL VICE, which wars more than any
other against the welfare of society—destroying the happi-
ness and disappointing, the objects of matrimony, under-
mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering
and shortening the lives of its victims, and spreading desola-
tion through families.
The essential particulars relating to this great social evil
(the besetting snare of inexperienced youth and the curse of
maturity), together with ample instructions for removing its
effects, and recovering health, vigour, and all the ennobling
privileges of our being, are contained in Dr. LA'MERT'S
"SELF-PRESERVATION,"' a Treatise on Nervous and
Physical Debility, of which the 00th Edition has just been

POSSESSION OF STOLEN BANE-NOTES.—John Fenne,

pound Bank of England notes in his possession, which had
originally formed part of a sum of money stolen from a
widow lady named Blackburn, after she left the bank of
Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith, in August last.
Mr. Sleigh appeared for the prisoner, and said he did not
think from the evidence at present before the court there
was sufficient to justify a committal.
The Lord Mayor was of a contrary opinion, and accord-

Some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the
inquiry but it would greatly add to their value If they in-

prevention of that SPECIAL VICE, which wars more than any
other against the welfare of society—destroying the happi-
ness and disappointing the objects of matrimony, under-
mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering
and shortening' the lives of its victims, and spreading desola-

CITY NE WS-YESTERDAY.

We are informed that the telegraphic advices
from Constantinople " that the dividend ouTurkish
Consolit:es,:due on the 13th inst., was punctually
Paid in Turkish gold," are incorrect, the fact being
th .t coupons which fell due on the 13th are not
really payable till the 19th or the 20th, as the Tur-
kish government require them to be left five days
for examination. Telegrams received th's morning,
however, give the impression that the Government
'Will succeed in providing the money.
The Paris advices quote the prices of the Mires
Six per Cent. Turkish Loan at 654, which is
about equal to that of the London Loan of 1862.
At one time there was a difference of about 10 per
cent, in favour of the latter.

About £5,000 in gold was bought by the Bank
to-day.
The corn market was quiet to-day. To effect
sales, however, less money would have had to be
taken for anything under the finest descriptions.
The cotton market was firm to-day, with sales
to the amount of 2,500 bales. The sales of the
Week have been 24,500 bales.

ITALY.

The following is the full text of the article in the
Official Gazette of Turin, of which a telegraphic
summary has already appeared :

"A foreign paper, La France, discussing our affairs, in-
vokes the assembly of a diplomatic congress, to the sanction
of which it should like to see submitted a project of confe-
deration founded upon the division of Italy into three
States—one in the north, another in the south, and the Pon-
tifical State in the centre.
We do not understand how a serious journal can pro-
pose to Europe to settle the affairs of Italy by overthrowing
the monarchy, and by spliting in two that crown which
universal suffrage, the value and work of centuries, have
placed upon the head of a prince who protects its destinies.
" The unity of the national monarchy cannot be the sub-
ject of diplomatic conferences, and serve the chimerical
views of writers who are ignorant of the political conditions
of our country. That unity is independent of all and every-
thing, because it is the principal upon which the national
movement is based, and towards which it tends,
" The greatest fact of our century is certainly the Italian
monarchy, which progresses with so great security that
history cannot give any example of a new State that can be
compared to it. This monarchy, recognised by the great
Powers of Europe, will know, then, like them, how to main-
min itself with order in the position assigned to it by
Divine Providence, and by the public right of the nations
of the civilised world.

" The discussions upon the utility of Federal States in
Italy, which gives such pleasure to certain foreign writers,
have not the slightest signification for us. Italy can never
take part in diplomatic conferences to discuss her own
unity; she can only do so to discuss the plenitude of the
rights which emanate from the national unity.

imbelong to it is not entire, that its work is not sufficiently
efficacious without Rome as the capital of Italy.

" The difficulties which some bring forward upon this
organisation will vanish from the fact, as those have vanished
which were connected with the union of the different pro-
vinces.

" The Papacy will find itself, in a practical point of
view, free and its own master in the Italian kingdom, more
so than it is at the present moment in its own domain. The
immense evils which some predict in their ardent imagina-
tion will be reduced to a nullity. The unity of Italy vorill
be a more solid and surer guarantee of the Papal indepen-
dence than would be the confederation or the neutrality and
autonomy of the territory of St. Peter."

POLICE---THIS D.Y.

BOW-STREET.
Hugh Morris was placzA at the bar, on remand, charged
with having caused the death of Edward Leigh.
It will be recollected that the deceased and the defendant
were partaking of refreshments together at the Somer-
set Hotel, when they commenced playing with knives
which they had been using. Unfortunately, the defendant
inflicted a wound in the abdomen of his companion.
Surgical aid had to be called in. Leigh lingered for a few
days, and then died. A coroner's inquest had since been
held, and a verdict of " Accidental Death" had been re-
turned.

Inspector Brimbacombe having informed Mr. Corrie of
the result of the coroner's inquest,
Mr. Corrie said he could hardly see how such a verdict
could be returned.

Inspector Brimbacombe informed the magistrate that the
surgeon who attended the deceased was not present.

Mr. Corrie wished to know the exact cause of death.
Mr. Dunn, the surgeon, said inflammation of the bowels,
brought on by a wound which he had received.
Corrie—lnflammation of the bowels caused by stab-
bing. He thought it would be his duty to send the defen-
dant for trial. He could net see how ha could do other-
wise. Two men in a drunken fit commence playing with
knives,'and although the unfortunate man whose death had
been brought about by it was as much to blame as the pri-
soner, yet that did not acquit him of the blame. Under
all the circumstances, he should send the case to the ses-
sions, but he would admit the defendant to bail.
The depositions were then made out, and the defendant
was fully committed to take his trial for 'manslaughter.
Two men named Ayres and Conner were charged with
passing counterfeit coin.
The first mentioned prisoner went into a shop in Holborn
to purchase a necktie, and tendered a half.crown, which
was fortunately discovered, be fore he left the
shop, to be bad. Ayres was afterwards seen
in company with the other prisoner, and shortly after-
wards Ayres entered the shop of Mr. Hoare in King-street,
Holborn, and having asked to be served with some shirt
collars, he again tendered half-a-crown. Mr. Hoare saw
at once the coin was bad, and told the prisoner so. Conner,
who was with him, said it was not, but having slightly bent
the coin, Mr. Hoare returned it to Ayres, who left the shop ;
but as Mr. Hoare saw them enter a public-house imme-
diately facing his house, and very shortly after rapidly
retreat, therefore he ran across, and he then found they
had succeeded in passing the bad half-crown. Ho
ran after them, and on coming up with a police-constable
he gave both men into custody.
Both prisoners denied all knowledge of the coin being a
bad one.
Mr. Corrie committed both prisoners for trial.

LAW-THIS DAY.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before ➢Zr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
IN RE COOK-A MISTAKE SOMEWHERE.

This bankrupt was described as of Size-lane, commis-
sion agent, and this was a meeting for last examination
and discharge.

Mr, Maynard, of Broad-street, said that he was the
assignee to the estate, and was appointed by the creditors,
although he was not himself a creditor, but he had investi-
gated the accounts, and believed the bankrupt to be an
honest man, his difficulties principally caused from a loss
of £4,000, and he had been sued on account of his wife.
The bankrupt said that he had been before the court in
1856 under the Arrangement Act, and paid 4s. 6d. in the
pound, and obtained his certificate.

His Honour sent for the proceedings, but they could no
be found.

His Honour said, although the bankrupt at first stated so,
it was doubtful whether such was the fact.

Mr. Brough, on coming into court, said that the case had
been called on in his absence, but he appeared for the
assignee.

His Honour said it was a very singular case that the
bankrupt, who appeared to understand the proceedings of
the court, should have made such a statement. He (his
Honour) would, therefore, pass the examination and ad-
journ the order of discharge to inquire as to the arrange-
ment.

WESTMINSTER.

OUTRAGEOUS ATTACK UPON A PUBLICAN BY THE
MILITARY.—Herbert Pearce, James Lord, and Martin
Wallis, three privates of the Grenadier Guards, the for-
mer wearing a good conduct stripe, and the two first-named
with black eyes, were charged as follows :
William Stockley, landlord of the Pakenham Arms,
Knightsbridge-green, said on Saturday night the defend-
ants and two other soldiers came into his house, and coming
upstairs wanted to enter his concert room. As they were
drunk he directed his manager not to admit them, espe-
cially as he had forbidden two of them to enter the house
before complainant told them he could not have them in
his concert room, when they began to use very bad lan-
guage, and forced their way in. They struggled with them
and got them out, when Pearce struck complafnant, and
another man, who escaped, also struck him. These three
then all attacked him, and tried to throw him over the
banisters, but he got his 'back against the wall, and fought
in self-defence, during which he gave the two soldiers black
eyes. Complainant at length sent for the police, when
they rushed down stairs, and Wallis and the two others
went into the bar and caused damage to the extent of
£3 2s. 2d.

Samuel Geary, 267 A, said ho was called into the public-
house, and found a crowd of 400 or 500 persons assembled.
Hearing screams of murder inside, he got in after some
difficulty, and saw Wallis and the two who have escaped
breaking everything they could get at in the bar. He took
Wallis into custody, when he struck him several times,
and but for assistance he would have been roughly handled,
as the mob incited the soldiers to attack the police.
The defendants declared that they were assaulted by the
landlord and his men.
It having been intimated that, Pearce and Lord bore a
good character, but that Wallis was very irregular as a
soldier,

Mr. Paynter said he was sorry to see such men before
him. Pearce and Lord, however, seemed to have got the
worst of it, and he should only fine them ss. each. As to
Wallis, he should fine him the amount of damage, and ss.
in addition, or in default commit him for six weeks.
They were locked up.

President Lincoln has ordered the Attorney-
General to take measures for carrying out the
Confiscation Act.

Mr. G. Brown, the newly elected abolition
member to Congress from Missouri, has issued a
proposal urging the Northern States to agitate the
question of a gradual emancipation of the slaves in
Missouri.

The British steamer Kelsie is reported to have
been sunk by a collision 50 miles from Nassau.
It is reported from Peru that the loan effected in
England would cause some uneasiness, the Presi-
dent requiring the money, and Congress refusing
to touch it.

The future financial policy of the Governmen
continued to be discussed. It is supposed tha
more legal tender currency will be issued.

The Federals have extended the time for the
inhabitants of Fredericksburg to remove their
women and children until the morning of the 23d.
No news has yet been received of any bombard-
ment, all being reported quiet.
Confederate General Leo is at Fredericksburg,
and it is supposed will resist the passage of the
Rappahannock by the Federals.
The Confederates remain in the immediate front
of the Federals at Harper's Ferry.
The reports of Stonewall Jackson's movements
are still conflicting.
All sorts of rumours are current concerning the
destination of the large Federal expedition prepar-
ing under General Banks. One report states that
the expedition will proceed to the peninsula, and
will co-operate with the gunboats in the attack on

Richmond by way of James River.
Earl Russell's refusal to co-operate with France
in mediation is variously interpreted, many regard-
ing the question of mediation as only postponed.
, The New York, Times thinks that the official an-
nouncemen of proposed mediation will give a defi-
niteneEs to American policy which will leave Euro-
pean Governments no room to doubt what will he
the result when they shape and indicate their own
