STREE7 ROBBERIES.

Mr. D. W. Harvey, in a letter to a contemporary.
says :
You will readily suppose from my official position
that my attention has been given to a subject which
now largely engages the public mind, and will con-
tinue to be a source of great and painful solicitude,
if not effectually met by appropriate remedies.
I allude to the burglaries and daring acts of per-
sonal violence which are daily ccurring.
As there is no doubt that many of these outrages
are justly attributable to convicts on tickets of leave,
it appears to me that immediate attention should be
given to this great and growing evil; and in aid of
this object I venture to suggest that all persons to
Whom tickets of leave have been granted and are
still in force shou d be ordered forthwith, by com-
petent authority, to report themselves at a given s
quarter, with their names and residences, and if
need be to present themselves ; and that those per-
sons who do not comply with such order within
seven days should lose the privilege of their tickets,
to be des t with for disobedience; and further, that
those wno comply with this order, and give satis-
factory accounts of themselves, should be placed in
communication with the heads of police in the dis-
trict in which they reside, who should receive in-
structions to afford them the countenance which
their conduct may deserve.
I consider this last suggestion most important,
for it cannot be doubted that the means of employ-
ment to those w o are honestly seeking it is greatly
ehe
the by the mistaken zeal of the police, who are
the ready to give intimations to their employers of
i
r _
lea, previous malfazsance, which, in most cases,
to their immediate discharge, thus throwing
them
back on their former asaociates and vicious
coarse. That such is the case is within my own
experience.

Some little emotion was caused the day before
Yeeterday in the Rouen fish-market by the seizure of 28
baskets, containing 5,600 herrings, which were not consi-
dered fit for food. The great body of the retail dealers,

fwever, were rather pleased than otherwise at the fact, as
the market was thus rid of a superabundant quantity. A

EXTRAORDINARY OUTRAGE BY BOYS.

The triumph of boys over the effigy of Guy Fawkes
has been attended this year at Bradford with a very
aggravated act of violence. The particulars were
stated beforo Messrs. Aldermen Rand, Brown, and
Light, and Mr. S. Smith, four of the magistrates of
that borough, on Saturday last, when no fewer than
30 boys and youths, from 13 to 20 years of age, moat
of them employed in worsted factories, dyehouses,
and iron foundries, were charged with having com-
mitted a murderous assault upon Mr. Isaec White,
a respectable farmer, between 50 and 60 years of age,
residing at New Millerdam, Manningham township,
in the borough of Bradford. They were further
charged with stealing Mr. White's property. Mr.
Terry, solicitor, appeared for the prosecution ; Mr.
J. G. Hutchinson appeared for 14 of the prisoners,
and Mr. Cater on behalf of the others, the rest being
undefended. From the evidence of Mr. Grauhan,
chief constable of Bradford, it appeared that the
prisoners and other lads, to the number altogether
of 40 or more, went on Tuesday night last
with
of
hand-cart to Mr. White's farm, for the purpose oi

conveying away pales and other fencing metern

Nine of his teeth were knocked out, and he was

AN IN7E.RCEP7ED LE77EB.

A party of Confederate cavalry made a dash on
the 10th of October at a house near Charleston, in
Virginia, and captured amongst other things a
packet of letters addressed by Federal officers to
friends in the North. One of these was addressed
to Mr. Seward by a nephew with the army. It has
been published in the Richmond Despatch, and runs
as follows :

"Near Charleston, Va., Oct. 19, 1862.

Dear Uncle,—l got here from the Ferry yes-
terday afternoon, I have not time to write you
but a few lines now, but wid write more fully in a
day or two.
" I send you half-a-dozen copies of various of the
Richmond papers, captured by some of our cavalry
last night. By them you will see that the rebels
arc not yet fully convinced that they have not been
routed in Kentucky. The Whig's editorial says it
never expected success there while the rebel army
was under such incompetent generals. And the
Examiner is still in a state of painful anxiety about
the battle of Perryville.
"It seems that • they have received despatches
from General Forrest and numerous other Southern
sources, telling of their victory; but Bragg's offi-
cial report has not been received, and they have
seen the Federal papers, and as these do not admit
a defeat to the Union arm), the Southerners really
doubt whether any has occurred. Is not this an-
other evidence of the wisdom of your policy in re-
gard to the Northern Press P General Scott was
right in saying that falsification was a necessary
part of the machinery of war. In this war it is a
powerful aid, es the Southern Press republish and
seem to credit so much of what we choose to give
to our papers.

"Push your policy as to the Press still farther
Make them state every fight a glorious victcry, and
stick to it. It will do great good North and South.
No time for more now. Bob Verplank is here and
well.—Very affectionately, your nephew,
" WILLIAM H. VANPELT,
" Hon. W. H. Seward.,,

COMMERCIAL.

SmANoitAn.—The hopes of importers as to the demand
for cotton manufactures have not been realised. The Ri-
verine and coast markets have exhibited little capacity for
taking off supplies. The enhanced cost of cotton goods at,

withcoarse fabrics, which, doubtless, accounts for the unwil-
lingness of the Shanghao dealers to operate in imported
Blanchester
the
cloths beyond their immediate wants. The yield of native
cotton is good. The rate has advanced owing to shipments
fir the South, whose supply from India having ceased, is
now dependent on the North. Still the advance is but a
bagatelle, probably not discernible in the interior. In wool-
lens little has been done, and no alteration developed, The
stock of iron is much reduced, and lead is very saleable.
Coals continue to arrive freely and to fall steadily. Straits
produce seems to be in fair and steady request. Black
pepper Scarce and wanted.
I'OOCHOWPOO.—The sales of the fortnight are thus re-
ported :—T-cloths, Slb., 2,000 pieces, at 3 dole. 10c. Dyed
damasks, assorted, 250 pieces, at 7 his. 25c.

THE VIRTUE OF INTOXICATION.—Is drunkenness
a virtue? Aro ruffians who got drunk and then commit
most brutal outrages, entitled to plead drunkenness in pal-
liation of their crimes, as they might put in a certificate of
previous good character ? Certain of our magistrates appear
just now to think so, and among them, we are quite sur-
prised to see, is Mr. Tyrwhitt. In sentencing a brute the
other day for an assault, this usually good judge forgot
himself so far as to say the nonsense following :—" He
should send the prisoner to hard labour for six weeks, and,
had it not been that the prisoner was drunk, he should have
sent him for a longer period." In future when a drunken
brute is taken up for an assault, it would be as well to
charge him not merely with the outrage but with the being
drunk. There is by law at present a penalty for drunken-
ness ; and a fine of five shillings, with the option of impri-
sonment, may be imposed on any one found tipsy in the
streets. Had the prisoner in this case been charged with
being drunk, Mr. Tyrwhitt would have been obliged to
take judicial notice of that which, so far from excusing,
aggravated the assault. Thus, being called upon to punish
it, he could not have. viewed the drunkenness as palliation ;
and while he proceeded to committal of the prisoner, he
would have spared his friends the pain of seeing him com-
mit himself.

ILIE GAROTTERS.

TO TIIE EDITOR OF THE STJN.

SlR,—Permit to apologise for trespassing on your
valuable space, but could not the police rate be
be doubled, so as to give Sir Richard Mayne the
power of at once increasing the force, thus putting
an end to the present system of garotting and
burglary.
Although the police are not too well paid, doubt-
less there are thousands of competent men who
would be but too glad to join the force.
In the meantime, if two men out of every hun-
dred, medical men excepted, would do night duty
(in their own immediate neighbourhood), or at least
for as many hours as may be deemed necessary, it
would be affording great assistance to Sir Richard
Mayne; and, in case of any man objecting to take
his turn, for him to be fined twenty shillings, of
course subject to the arrangements of Sir Richard
Mayne.

And it might be as well to let it be generally
known that any persons being convicted of garotting
or burglary should be well flogged.
I am, Sir, yours obediently,
R. R. POND.

GREA7 EXHIBITION.

A meeting was held yesterday at the board-room
of the Horticultural Society for the purpose of pre-,
senting to Dr. Lindley an address from the Colonial
Commissioners, expressing their thanks for the very
valuable services rendered by him during the course
of the Exhibition as Superintendent of the Colonial
Section. Tile address runs as follows 3
Before the
first closing of the International Exhibition of 1862
we, the undersigned Commissioners, beg
to convey
to you our warm acknowledgments for the admirable
manner in which you have discharged the arduous
duties confided to you by her Majesty's Commis-
sioners. No small share f the great success of our
department, to which his Grace the Minister for
the Colonies bore such gratifying testimony, a testi
mony echoed by the voice of public opinion, is due
to your advice and co-operation. Personally, we
have to thank you for many acts of kindness, and.
we shall not fail to convey to our respect Govern-
ments our appreciation of the valuable services you
have rendered to the agricultural, commercial, and
This
industrial interests of the British Colonies."

was presented to Dr. Lindley by Sir Daniel Cooper/
Commissioner for New South Wales, whose short
but eloquent remarks were cordially applauded bY,
his brother Commissioners. Among those present
were Sir William Holmes, British Guiana seu
Trinidad ; Sir Henry Drummond Wolff, K.C.M.°°'

has ably assisted Dr. Lindley in his duties. Are'
solution was then afterwards carried that tf

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Permit to apologise for trespassing on your
valuable space, but could not the police rate be
be doubled, so as to give Sir Richard Mayne the
power of at once increasing the force, thus putting
an end to the present system of garotting and
burglary.

Although the police are not too well paid, doubt-
less there are thousands of competent men who
would be but too glad to join the force.
In the meantime, if two men out of every hun-
dred, medical men excepted, would do night duty
(in their own immediate neighbourhood), or at least
for as many hours as may be deemed necessary, it
would be affording great assistance to Sir Richard
Mayne ; and, in case of any man objecting to take
his turn, for him to be fined twenty shillings, of
course subject to the arrangements of Sir Richard
Mayne.

And it might be as well to let it be generally
known that any persons being convicted of garotting
or burglary should be well flogged.
I am, Sir, yours obediently,
R. It. POND.

CALCUTTA AND CHINA

MAIL.

We have received our letters and papers under
date of Calcutta, October 22 ; Hong-Kong, October
15; Madras, October 29. The following is from
the China Mail of October 22 :

"Every endeavour is being made to open the
railway as far as Patna by the 15th of November,
and from thence to Benares by the 15tn of Decem-
ber. Other lines are progressing rapidly, the one
to Mutlah being completed with the exception of
the bridge over tlif Pyallee River. Since the 18th,
the date of our last summary, little has transpired
worth referring to. The Priestley scandal has been
rather unexpectedly revived, and, in the absence of
anything more important, has engaged public atten-
tion the last day or two. The subject has been
brought on the taps in consequence of Sir H. Rose
having addressed a letter to the managing com-
mittee of the United Service Club, in which he
tenders his resignation of the office of honorary
president. The Commander-in-Chief, in so doing,
remarks that, in his opinion, the proper course for
the club to have taken with reference to the con-
duct of Colonel Priestley would have been to have
referred the question to him as president. His Ex-
cellency, however, goes further, and maintains that
Colonel Priestley was justified in doing all that he
did. The letter has not boon published, but
we have grounds for stating that it is not cal-
culated to improve the position which his Excel-
lency has maintained in this affair. The move-
ment which we alluded to in our last as being on
foot to raise subscriptions for the Lancashire poor,
has assumed a practical shape. A preliminary
meeting has been held at the Chamber:of Commerce
at which many of our influential men were present.
It was determined to convene a public meeting, but
at present no date has been fixed. It will probably
take place during the first week of November.
Subscriptions continue to be received, but the
amount already remitted is not likely to be mate-
rially increased until another appeal and renewed
exertions are made. We have no doubt that a
hearty response will be made, whenever the com-
mittee have organised these arrangements. The
courts re-open on Monday next after a holiday of
a month, and we understand that several important
alterations have been effected in the minor details.
calculated to insure increased efficiency. The rainy
reason is not yet over, and there is at present little
prospect of its breaking up. We generally look for
clear bracing weather at this time of the year, but
the rains have been unusually protracted."

COURT CIRCULAR.

WINDSOR CASTLE, Nov. 26.
The Queen, accompanied by the Princess Alexandra,
Princess Louis of Hesse, aad attended by the Hon. Mrs.
Bruce, walked and drove this morning.
Prince Christian (of Denmark) arrived at the Castle yes-
terday, attended by General d'Oxholm.
The Duke of Nemours, Princess Marguerite, the Count
d'Eu, and the Duke of Alencon, visited her Majesty.
Madame d'Oxholm, the Danish Minister, and Earl Rus-
sell, also arrived at the Castle.
The Danish Minister and Earl Russell left to-day.

The Queen proceeded yesterday morning to the Flemish
Farm, for the purpose of planting an oak in memorial of the
Prince Consort, to be called the " Prince Consort's Oak."
Her Majesty was accompanied by the Prince and Princess
Louis of Hesse, Princess Alexandra, Princess Louise, and
Prince Leopold, and Count Gleiehen ; and was attended by
the Countess of Caledon, Baroness von Schenk, Lord
Charles Fitzroy, and Lieut.-Colonel the Hon. D. de Roe
(Equerries in Waiting), Lieut.-General the Hon. C. Grey,
and Colonel the Hon. A. Liddell.

Major-General Seymour and Major-General the Hon. A.
N. Hood were in attendance on the ground, as were also
Mr. Menzies, deputy surveyor; Mr. Cole, the head park-
keeper ; and others employed in Windsor Park and the
Royal Household.

The site was selected in consequence of its having been
that upon which the Prince Consort left off shooting upon
his last visit to the park.

The Hon. Messieurs Sicotte, Howland, Howe, and Tilly
had an interview with the Duke of Newcastle yesterday at
the Colonial-office.

The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council sat yester-
day, and heard a petition for a prolongation of Burn's
patent for improved cotton gin. Lord Chelmsford, on the
part of their lordships, stated that no sufficient case for the
extension of the patent had been shown. A petition for a
prolongation of Bakewell's patent for electric telegraphs
was heard. Lord Chelmsford, on the part of their lord-
ships, refused the extension. The Lot ds present were
Lord Chelmsford, the Lords Justices Knight Bruce and
Turner, and Sir J. Coleridge.

POSTAL COMMUNICATION IN

SOUTHERN ITALY.

The following statistical report of the progress
of postal communication in Southern Italy is of
immense value, as showing the great development
of mind and commerce under the Italian Govern-

went :
On the Ist March, 1861, the number of post-offices in the
continental provinces of the old kingdom of the Two
Sicilies was
They are now e••

And the increase in 20 months is. .

months of 1860 were 565,292.52
Those of the tame period in 1862 were

Thus showing an increase in the postal revenue of 232,425,79
The correspondence of all kinds which passed
through the Neapolitan post-offices in the first
semestre of 1860 was, in number 3,981,331
In the corresponding period of 1862 it amounted
to
Showing an increase in the number of letters,
jothnals, &c., posted, of
The great increase of the correspondence, which
is not in proportion to that of the revenue, is to be
attributed to the greater number of journals noW
printed in the Southern provinces ; to the more fre-
quent relations with Upper Italy; and the Bew
postal treaties with France, England, and Switzer.
land, which, while they reduce the sum paid on each
letter, have sensibly increased the amount of corre-
spondence.
With the inauguration of the new order of things,
too, was introduced the system of post-office stamps,
which had not before been known. This interest-
ing branch of the service has assumed large propor-
tions, and has proved of the greatest advantage to
commerce and to the general public. In the first
six months of 1862 were issued by the Neapolitan
post-offices 131,177 stamps, amounting in value to
5,063,855.89 lire. _

The mail communications by the seven "Conan,.
lar" lines of the Neapolitan provinces, which for-
merly were not more than three times a week, are
now kept up daily, so that with the exception of a
very few country places which lie at a great distance
from post-offices, every commune of these provinces
now enjoys the advantage of receiving and despatch-
ing its correspondence daily.
The maritime service, too, has been reorganized,
and placed in harmony with the natural relations
which these provinces have with other parts of
the kingdom. Before the new order of things the
postal sea service from Naples was occasional, and
ordinarily was not more frequent than twice a week
to Sicily by means of merchant steamers. At pre-
sent Post-office steamers leave Naples for Genoa
daily, and vice versa, touching at Leghorn. For
Palermo and Messina they leave five times a week;
for Messina, Catania, Syracuse, and Malta once a
week ; for Cagliari, Tortoli, and Terra Nuova, twice
a month, and vice versa ; and, lastly, a steamer
leaving Messina and Ancona three times a month,
touches at Mar.fredonia, Bari, Brindisi, Gallipoli,
and Cotrone.
This report requires no comment ; it represents
the vast impulse which has been given to commerce
and to mental activity within the last 20 months,
and leaves us to imagine the amount of pressure
which lay like a nightmare on the energies of the
people under the Burbons.

ously receiving portion of the grope which haa
been stolen by the convicts in the preceding case.
Mr. Montague Willi.iras defended the prisoner%
It appeared that she was the wits of the man
Yates, in whose name the vehicle and
horse had
been hared, and who had since abseondej, and the
evidence against the prisoner merely went to °21°,74-
that she was in company with the prisoners, w"°
were pawning and selling the duplicates, and WO
seen in possession of some of the stolen property.
The jury acquitted the prisoner.
Mr. Clark then said that the case had been taken
up by the Government authorities in consequence of
the alarm which these suburban robberies had ne-
cessarily created. They had been going on from
August down tO the time when Austin and Kem-
bell were appreher;ded. Kembell, it appeared, had
been before convicted, and sentenced to a term of
penal servitude, and also i 0 imprisonment since the
expiration of that term. Ulp crLer prisoners had
also been formerly convicted.
The Common
.Sergeant sentenced Ilear3 to four,
Kembell to 15, and Austin to four years' penal ser
vitude.
