rplE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROS-SMITH'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin.
oiples."

CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—George Thomas Sutor,
clerk, was charged with embezzling thesums of £l9 3s. 9d.,
£37 13s. 2d., £8 15s. Bd., and other moneys, received by
him for and on behalf of his employer, Mr. John Danger-
field, clerk to the St. Martin's vestry.
Mr. Abrams appeared for the prisoner.

From the statement of Mr. Dangerfield it appeared that
the prisoner had been a clerk in his office, and part of his
duty was to receive certain rents, and afterwards to pay the
amount immediately into Drummond's Bank. Amongst
the rents he had to receive were those derivable from an
estate called the Holborn estate, but it had been discovered
he had received from a person named Deeks, occupying
premises on that estate, the sum of £l9 3s. 9d., which he
had not accounted for in the usual way. Another sum,
X. 37 13s. 2d., had also been paid by a tenant named Waite,
and the third sum, £8 15s. Bd., was received from a tenant
named Rule. The prisoner left his service in June last,
and a short time after his books were examined, when the
deficiency was discovered. He was accordingly directed
to attend at the office and explain certain inaccuracies
in the books, but instead of so doing, he wrote
a letter admitting he was a defaulter in the accounts to the
extent of £ll4, but it had been occasioned by an accident,
viz., the losing a large sum of money by the dropping of
his pocket-book into the Thames.

William Helding, clerk in Reynold's Newspaper office
said he paid to prisoner, on behalf of Mr. Desks, in April
last, certain money for the rent of some premises in Hol-
born. The prisoner gave a receipt for the amount, £l9 3s. 9d.
for which he received a cheque, drawn by Mr. Decks on
the Bank of London.

Mr. James Cook, clerk to the prosecutor.—The prisoner
was in the same office until the 7th of June when he left.
It was the duty of Sutor to pay into Drummond's bank all
moneys as he received it. I believe from inquiries I have
made none of the sums mentioned have been paid over to
the Messrs. Drummond. The receipts given by the pri-
soner to Mr. Hedley for the money was not upon the usual
printed form.

Some discussion followed on the admisability of certain
evidence, 'and ultimately Mr. Corrie suggested that the
evidence already given was sufficient for a remand.
This course being assented to the prisoner was retuanded,
but admitted to bail in twa sureties of £lOO, and his own
recognisances for £2OO.

THE MARRIAGE LAWS.

THIRD EDITION.

SUN OFFICE, SEVEN O'CLOCK,

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS—THIS EVENING.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.

Earl ST. GERMANS presented petitions from Fab
mouth, Bodmin, and Liskeard, in favour of legalising the
marriage with a deceased wife's sister.

THE COLONIAL EXPENDITURE.
The Earl of CARNARVON made an explanation with
respect to certain figures he had used in the remarks he had
addressed to their lordships the ether evening with respect
to the colonial estimates. As there were some inaccures
in those figures, as regards the civil colonial expenditure,
he begged to withdraw his statement on that part of the
subject, but he adhered to those items he had mentioned
with regard to fortifications and Canada.

The Duke of NEWCASTLE said he found he was per•
fectly correct in the remarks he had made on the spur 01
the moment on the subject that had been brought forward
by the noble earl opposite without notice. The civil
colonial expenditure instead of increasing had been
diminishing for several years past.

THIRD READINGS.
The f3llowiug bills were read a third time and passed :
Cannock Chase Railway—Tottenham and Hampstead
Junction—Spalding and Bourn Railway—London and
North Western (additional powers)—and East Gloucester-
shire Railway.

STANDING ORDERS.
On the motion of Lord REDESDALE, the standing
orders were suspended and the following bills were read a
second time :—Wrexham, Mold, and Contah's Qtiay Junc-
tion Railway—Great Western Railway (Oswestry, Shrews-
bury and Ellesmere)—Ellesmere and Went Railway—Os
vestry, Ellesmere, and Whitchurch Railway Company.

THAMES EMBANKMENT BILL.
Lord STANLE Y ofALDERLEY moved the second read-
ing of this bill. The object of the measure it was well known
to most of their lordships was for the purpose of embanking
the river Thames from Westminster to Blackfriars, and thus
relieve Whitehall and the Strand from that enormous.
traffic with which those great thoroughfares was now en-
cumbered. The bill had passed the other House of Par-
liament, where it had been most thoroughly discussed,
and he hoped their lordships would give their assent to the
bill, which would have the effect of greatly adding to the
beauty and convenience of the metropolis.
The Duke of BUCCLEUCH said he did not rise for the
purpose of opposing the second reading of this bill—(hear,
hear)—but to pretest against the very unfair manner
in which his name had been used both in and out of Parlia-
ment. He never intended in any way to obstruct the em-
bankment of the river, as he looked upon it as a matter of
the highest importance.

A THRICE DISAPPOINTED SIJICIDE.—Emma Cannon, a
very dissipated and drunken woman, was brought before
Mr. Woolrych, charged with attempting to commit suicide.
William Willoughby, a constable in the employ of the
Regent's Canal Company, received information yesterday
afternoon that the prisoner had jumped into the canal near
the Commercial Gas-works. He obtained the drags and
went to the spot. The second time he threw in the drags
he brought her up. She was quite insensible.
Mr. Woolrych—Had she sunk when you threw in the
drags?
Willoughby—She was sinking.

Mr. Woolrych—ls the water deep there ?
Willoughby—Yes, 14 or 15 feet in depth. I brought her
on shore, and Dr. Horton, of High-street, Stepney,
attended upon her and administered stimulant and rescued
her. She was then sent to Wapping poor-house.
Mr. Woolrsch—This woman has been here before for a
similar attempt on her life.
Kent, the messenger of the court—Yes, sir ; she was
here five or six months ago, for attempting to drown herself.
A Police Constable—Yes ; three times she has attempted
to destroy herself—she is a most violent and disorderly

woman.

The prisoner in an excited tone said—She was drunk yes-
tesday, and did not what sbe was about.
Mr. Woolrych—You have committed a most rash and
wicked act. It is perfectly shocking to hear of a young
woman drinking to excess, till she is mad drunk, and then
attempting to take away her own life.

The Prisoner—If

never do it again.

Woolrych—You are not to be trusted. lam very
much afraid you have been too leniently dealt with on for-
mer occasions, and now I think you ought to be committed
for trial for attempting self-murder, which is an offence
punishable by the laws of England. I shall remand you
for a week, and when you are brought before me again I
shall consider whether it is not proper to commit you to the
Sessions for trial.

ITALY.

The Commission appointed by the Italian Cham-
ber of Deputies to report on the bill concerning
political associations, has instituted a new bill for
the Ministerial one. This new bill does not invest
the Crown with the power of dissolving an associa-
tion at pleasure, but only empowers the Minister of
the Interior to suspend an association, accompany-
ing the decree of suspension with a notification of
the facts considered criminal. If within five days
the matter has not been brought under the notice
of the tribunals, the suspension ceases de jure. The
incriminated facts are to be judged by the Courts
of Assize, which may, in case of condemnation, also
order the dissolution of the association. If the
association continues its meetings after its dissolu-
tion, the members may be punished with imprison-
ment not exceeding a year. The enrolling of men,
and collecting of warlike stores without the permis-
sion of Government, is punished with imprisonment
or exile not exceeding three years. The act of
exciting subjects to disobey the laws or the public
authorities is punished with imprisonment not ex-
ceeding three months, and fine not exceeding 500
francs.

It appears from the Russian journals that the
destructive fires which have spread such terror
among the people are still numerous in the pro-
vinces. The Civil Uovernor of Tobolsk reports to
the Minister of the Interior a fire that has destroyed
in that city 95 houses, a wooden church, the office
of the administration of the commune, and the
archives. Only the official papers for the last four
years were saved, and some of the church ornaments.
A second fire is reported from Kanienetz-Podolsk,
that has destro3 ed several private houses, the
police•cffice, the printing-office of the local Govern-
ment, and the treasury, The Catholic Cathedral is
also, very much damaged. A third conflagration at
Browary, in the district of Ostersk, has destroyed
14 houses. The reports describe the origin of these
fires as unknown.

Mr. Woolrych—You have committed a most rash and
wicked act. It is perfectly shocking to hear of a young
woman drinking to excess, till she is mad drunk, and then
attempting to take away her own life.

The Prisoner—lf 9on will let me go this time I will

never do it again.

Mr. wookych—You are not to be trusted. lam very
much afraid you have been too leniently dealt with on for-
mer occasions, and now I think you ought to be committed
for trial for attempting self-murder, which is an offence
punishable by the laws of England. I shall remand you
for a week, and when you are brought before me again I
shall consider whether it is not proper to commit you to the
Sessions for trial.

INAUGURATION OF THE MYDD ELTON STATUE AND
DRINKING FOUNTAINS BY MR. GLADSTONE.—The cere-
mony of inaugurating the statue to Sir Hugh Myddelton,
the lather and founder of the New River Company, in
1613, together with the drinking fountains around it, is
fixed for Saturday, under the presidency of the Right Hon.
W. E. Gladstone, at the Agricultural Hall, Islington. The
statue is of marble, on a granite pedestal, with fountains on
either side, from designs by the late Mr. Thomas, the
e
sculptor, and it will occupy a conspicuous public position in
front of Islington-green, facing the High-street. Severs/
distinguished
persons are expected to be present; and the
4th Middlesex Rifle Volunteers, with their band, will be n
i
attendance as a guard of honour,

AMERICAN AFFAIRS.

The private commercial letters from New York
yesterday add little to the details already published.
They demonstrate, however, that no part of the
recent telegram by the Glasgow was concocted on
this side, since the whole of its statements had been
received at New York, and were supposed to be in
many respects accurate. The celebration of the
Fourth of July had been rendered the more melan-
choly by the inflated certainty that had previously
prevailed with regard to the announcement of the
fall of Richmond before that date, and by the state-
ment since current that the army of General M.Clel-
lan, which just before the end of June had num-
bered 85,000 men, had now been reduced by sick-
ness and by the loss in killed, wounded, and prison-
ers to less than 50,000. As the date of the letters
by the present mail is only to the Bth of July, and
the rate of exchange on England was then 1221,
and the premium on gold 111, it is to be assumed
that in the two succeeding days the estimate of
affairs must have become still more adverse since
the rate of exchange in the interval, according to
the quotations by telegram, had gone to between
128 and 130, while the premium on gold also had
risen to nearly 17 per cent. All the advices•agree
that volunteers are coming in very slowly, and that
a revulsion of feeling was beginning to be observ-
able, which seemed to indicate that the Democratic
party in New York, which had ceased to exist as a
distinct body during the mania for subjugating the
South, were now again likely to assume preponde-
rance, and to carry their candidate at the next elec-
tion for Governor of the State. It was also thought
likely that, unless the aspect of matters shall under-
go a great change during the next two or three
months, there will be a large party in favour of
foreign mediation. "Already," it is said, "the
feeling is not nearly so hostile to England as it was
a few weeks back." The Treasury Note Bill had
passed, but the new issues thus authorised had not
yet commenced, and their influence in further in-
creasing the premium on gold had still to be made
manifest. A prevalent report that an export duty
of 10 per cent. on gold and silver was about to be
imposed had not received much credence. With
regard to the bombastic proclamations of General
M'Ciellan, which have disappointed those who had
previously looked upon him as a steady soldier, it
is suggested that they must not be too hastily ac-
cepted as genuine, since the conduct and character
of Mr. Stanton, the Secretary of War at Washing-
ton, who gives forth everything that is allowed to
be published in the subjugated Northern press; are
not of a nature to guarantee that if he deemed such
productions necessary to serve the temporary pur-
poses of the Government he would for an instant
hesitate to fabricate them.

ITALY.

The Commission appointed by the Italian Cham-
ber of Deputies to report on the bill concerning
political associations, has instituted a new bill for
the Ministerial one. This new bill does not invest
the Crown with the power of dissolving an associa-
tion at pleasure, but only empowers the Minister of
the Interior to suspend an association, accompany-
ing the decree of suspension with a notification of
the facts considered criminal. If within five days
the matter has not been brought under the notice
of the tribunals, the suspension ceases de jure. The
incriminated facts are to be judged by the Courts
of Assize, which may, in case of condemnation, also
order the dissolution of the association. If the
association continues its meetings after its dissolu-
tion, the members may be punished with imprison.
ment not exceeding a year. The enrolling of men,
and collecting of warlike stores without the permis-
sion of Government, is punished with imprisonment
or exile not exceeding three years. The act of
exciting subjects to disobey the laws or the public
authorities is punished with imprisonment not ex-
ceeding three months, and fine not exceeding 500
francs.

jeant Pixley, of the Victoria Rifles, champion shot
of England, Mr. F. Cdfall, and a number of leading
Australian colonists now in England. Mr. T. M.
Mackay occupied the chair, and if a most excellent
chairman and an elegant and bountiful dejeuner are
elements of success on such an occasion, surely this
was one of the most successful events of the kind
we have ever witnessed.
The toasts followed rapidly. First on this as on
all occasions came " The Health of the Queen," next
that of " The Prince of Wales and the rest of the
Royal Family," then " The Army, the Navy, the
Volunteers, and Naval Reserve," Admiral Austin
responding for the navy, Capt. Le Mesurier for the
army, Serjeant Pixley for the volunteers, and Capt.
Pryce (commander of the Cornwallis) for the Royal
Naval Reserve. " The Two Homes of Parliament"
was next proposed, and responded to by Mr. H.
Lewis, M.P. " Prosperity to the Australian colo-
nies" followed, and was responded to by Sir S. A,
Donaldson. Several other toasts were then proposed,
amongs them " The Colonial Exhibitors," responded
to by Mr. Marsh, M.P. ; " Australian Trade," re-
sponded to by Mr. Locke and Mr. Sargood ; "Pro-
sperity to the Ship Cornwallis and her Owners,"
responded to by Mr. Stock; " Mr. Vernon ;" " Capt.
Pryce, the Commander of the Ship ;" "The Chair-
man ;" " The Press ;" and " The Ladies."
Mr. Adams's excellent band was in attendance,
and although it proved valuable during the dinner,
it became far more so when the ladies—who had
listened with commendable patience to all the
speeches betook themselves to the deck and
danced to its enlivening strains till twilight com-
ing on reminded them that they were in the
London Docks, and not in their own drawing-
rooms, and that the dance, which under other cir-
cumstances might, and no doubt would, have been
kept up till daybreak, must be brought to a close,
as the shades of evening were fast closing over
them.

THE COBNIVALLIS.

The ship bearing the above name is one which
!iaa just been added to the Black Ball line, and is
Low in the London Docks
rot prior to
of its cargo, its departure from this
port for Australia on the 10th of August next. It
is built of iron by the well-known
iron-ship builders
Messrs. Thomas Vernon and Sons,
Liverpool ; it
is a clipper constructed on the moat sZ
approved prim-
oipies, is 215 feet in length over all, 35 feet broad,
of 1,214 tons register, and is capable of carrying
about 2,000 tons. The after cabin, intended for
passengers, is admirably fitted up and arranged;
there is an absence of any trumpery ornamentation,
and the only decorations are of highly polished
English oak and bird's-eye maple. This cabin will
accommodate 24 persons and the arrangementsmade
for the comfort of the passengers are such as can
"iv be found in ships of the very highest class.
The ,tween decks are exceedingly lofty, and though
we understand it is not contemplated to fit them up
with cabins for intermediate passengers on the
procat voyage, they are capable of being so fitted
as to carry 500 troops in the greatest comfort. The
ship's rig appears somewhat light, but this arises
from the fact that the main, mizen, and ford masts
arc composed of iron, the top and top-gallant masts
beitig of wood ; the main, wizen, and fore yards
arc also of iron. A peculiar feature in the ship is
that Elro carries double topsail yards, one of which
is fitted with Cunningham's patent ; by this means
a great saving is likely to be effected in the wear of
canvas ; some improvements have also been intro-
duced with a view to carry off the sweating which
atNs ay s takes place in the lower decks of a ship when
loaded, and often inflicts the most serious injury
upon the cargo.

The completion of this most beautiful specimen of
naval architecture was celebrated yesterday in the
London Docks byddovin
ei uner on board, to which about
300 persons sat . _ amongst whom we recog-
nised Sir Wm. and

It USSIA.

It appears from the Russian journals that the
destructive fires which have spread such terror
among the people are still numerous in the pro-
vinces. The Civil Governor of Tobolsk reports to
the Minister of the Interior a fire that has destroyed
in that city 95 houses, a wooden church, the office
of the administration of the commune, and the
archives. Only the official papers for the last four
years were saved, and some of the church ornaments.
A second fire is reported from Kamenetz•Podolsk,
that has t!estro3 ed several private houses, the
police-office, the printing-office of the local Govern-
ment, and the treasury. The Catholic Cathedral is
also very much damaged. A third conflagration at
Browary, in the district of Ostersk, has destroyed
14 houses. The reports describe the origin of these
fires as unknown.

The Emperor has authorised the establisment
of a bank for Fiuland.

the city of Mexico, and that the conduct of the
Government towards foreigners is more oppressive
than ever.

There is at length, happily, every reasonable
prospect, we believe, of a settlement of the Great
Pine Arts Difficulty. Whether shall the Royal
Academy withdraw from its present position in the
edifice designed for the purposes of a National
Gallery alone ? Or shall the National Gal-
lery be removed elsewhere—leaving the Royal
Academicians in quiet possession of their present
'vantage ground, overlooking the so-called (and
absurdly so-called) "Finest Site in Europe 9" Lord
ELCITO'S motion, last evening, in the House of
Commons, though it was withdrawn after a slight
the
discussion, lin which
present and the late
Chief
Commissioner of Public Works alone parti-
cipated,
was merely withdrawn then for the pur-
introduced again
Mr. COWPER himself distinctly
pose of its being to-day—as an
unopposed motion.
intimated yesterday, at the close of his remarks,
that, to the motion itself, as it stood 'anon the
papers, he had no objection whatever. Tne right
hon. gentleman's only hope in connection with it was
r
—that he observed (in rather vague terms, terms that
might mean just anything or just nothing), the Bug_
gested inquiry should lead to some "useful :exults,"
tending thereby to improve and encourage in this
country the love and cultivation of art. The
noble lord's motion, in effect,
simply proposed
last night, and will propose again this
evening, "That an humble address be presented to
her MAJESTY that she will be graciously pleased to
issue a Royal Commission to inquire into the pre-
sent position of the Royal Academy in relation to
the fine arts, and into the circumstances and condi-
tions under which it occupies a portion of the Ns-
tion,l Gallery, and to suggest suet. measures as may
be required to render it more useful in promoting
art, and in improving and developing public taste."
It is the demand, in other words, of another Royal
Commission_ One there has already been, as every-
one who has paid the slightest attention to this
subject very well knows—a Royal Commission
before which all kinds of men of eminence were
examined at great length, including among those
important witnesses scientific authorities as distin-
guished as Professor FARAD •
AT. The result of this
. .
Royal Commssonbeing"--who can forget
it ? distinctly and most
emphatically in
favour of the National Gallery collection
remaining in London, instead of being carted
away
to that suburban Slough of Despond (but too well
known by this time) down at South Kensington.

BOW-STREET.

CHARGE :OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—George Thomas Sutor,
clerk, was charged with embezzling the sums of £l9 3s. 9d.,
£37 13s. 2d., £8 15s. Bd., and other moneys, received by
him for and on behalf of his employer, Mr. John Danger-
field, clerk to the St. Martin's vestry.
Mr. Abrams appeared for the prisoner.
From the statement of Mr. Dangerfield it appeared that
the prisoner had been a clerk in his office, and part of his
duty was to receive certain rents, and afterwards to pay the
amount immediately jute Drummond's Bank. Amongst
the rents he had to receive were those derivable from an
estate called the Holborn estate, but it had been discovered
he had received from a person named Deeks, occupying
premibes on that estate, the sum of £l9 3s. 9d., which he
had not accounted for in the usual way. Another sum,
£37 13s. 2d., had also been paid by a tenant named Waite,
and the third sum, £8 15s. Bd., was received from a tenant
named Rule. The prisoner left his service in June last,
and a short time after his books were examined, when the
deficiency was discovered. He was accordingly directed
to attend at the office and explain certain inaccuracies
in the books, but instead of so doing, he wrote
a letter admitting he was a defaulter in the accounts to the
extent of £ll4, but it had been 'occasioned by an accident,
via., the losing a large sum of money by the dropping of
his pocket-book into the Thames.

William Helding, clerk in Reynold's Newspaper office
said he paid to prisoner, on behalf of Mr. Deeks, in April
last, certain money for the rent of some premises in Hol-
born. The prisoner gave a receipt for the amount, £l9 3s. 9d.
for which he received a cheque, drawn by Mr. Desks on
the Bank of London.
Mr. James Cook, clerk to the prosecutor.—The prisoner
was in the same office until the 7th of June when he left.
It was the duty of Sutor to pay into Drummond's bank all
moneys as he received it. I believe from inquiries I have
made none of the sums mentioned have been paid over to
the Messrs. Drummond. The receipts given by the pri-
soner to Mr. Hedley for the money was not upon the usual
printed form.

Some discussion followed on the admisability of certain.
evidence, "and ultimately Mr. Corrie suggested that the
evidence already given was sufficient for a remand.
This course being assented to the prisoner was remanded,
but admitted to bail in two sureties of £lOO, and his own.
reeognisances for £2OO.
