THREATENING LETTERS IN IRELAND.—A case was

..
heard at the Fermanagh Assizes on Tuesday which
may serve to check the practice of sending threatening
letters. A soldier, who had been an apprentice to Mr.
Trimble, of Enniskillen, but had gone away and enlisted,
was prosecuted for sending a letter to his master, threaten-
ing to have his life. There were two charges of the same
nature against him, and at the close of the trial upon one
of them, the jury having been tardy in finding a verdict,
he was arraigned upon the second charge, and a new jury
impanelled, who were more rapid in arriving at a conclusion
as to his guilt. The court sentenced him to five years'
penal servitude.

6kTHE THAMES EMBANKMENT.—The Metropolitan
Board of Works having made application to the
directors of the Metropolitan District Railway Company
to ascertain when they would be in a position to commence
the works for their railway along the Thames Embank-
ment from Blackfriars-bridge to Westminster-bridge, Mr.
Fowler, the engineer to the railway company, has ad-
dressed a letter to the Board, in which he states, " Your
Thames Embankment works appear to require to be much
more advanced before we can commence our operations. I
do not propose to commence our works upon the embank-
ment until you have excluded the water, built your wall,
and nearly completed your filling."
