MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ROBBERY BY A WAREHOVSEMAN.—WiIIiam Head,
young man, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with steal-
ing some cloth the property of Messrs. Landon and Co.,
woollen warehousemen, in whose employ he was as a
warehouseman, at No. 10, Old Bond-street.
From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner was in
the employ of the prosecutors, and in consequence
of an anonymous letter received by the firm, Butcher,
137 C, watched the prisoner from his employers, and
on the way to Chelsea, prisoner took from under
his coat two pieces of cloth whioh he made into
a parcel and then took into a tailor's shop. Butcher
then took him into custody and found another piece of
cloth secreted on him, and at his lodgings the officer found
a number of waistcoat pieces, the property of the prose-
utors.

Butcher asked for a remand, which was granted.

The most unnecessary delay took place in calling on the
case, the prosecutor being kept waiting a considerable time.

Two men were taken into custody this morning with a
dog-cart, who are in the practice of calling at jewellers'
shops, and while one keeps the shopkeeper engaged at the
kerb, the other enters the shop and commits a robbery. The
case will be heard at a later hour.

HE PRINCE OF WALES.—It is stated that his
Royal Highness the Prince of Wales will leave England for
the Levant via Trieste about the 13th or 14th of next
month, and that his stay in the East will extend over about
four months. It was anticipated that the Prince would
have taken the most prominent part in the inauguration of
the Great Exhibition, but under the above arrangement it
is not probable that he will return to this country for some
weeks after that event shall have taken place. The Admi-
ralty yacht Osborne is about to proceed to the Mediterra-
nean, to be at the Prince of Wales's disposal during his tou r

STATE OF TRADE.

LEICESTER, Jan. 15.—1 t is almost too early in
the season to notice much improvement, neverthe-
less the London and country houses are beginning
to do business, and in a short time trade will doubt-
less improve. At Hinckley and Loughborough a
little more is doing, and the condition of the opera-
tives in both town and country is better than in
former years. There has been some activity in the
wool-market, at lather less money. Yarns are quiet
in demand, but firm in price, and spinners are be-
coming better employed.
NOTTINGHAM, 15th.—There is not much improve-
ment noticeable in the lace trade. The home demand
is not yet active, but it is expected it will improve
shortly. There have been a few buyers in the mar-
ket, but their purchases are not large. There is not
much doing for the Continent, but some orders are
expected shortly for America. Upon the whole,
business, although quiet, is by no means unhealthy
—stocks have been well cleared, in consequence of
manufacturers having for some time past been
making goods to order. In hosiery there is a fair
amount of business doing. More orders are ex-
pected for the States, but manufacturers are finish-
ing to order, and both yarns and manufactured
goods are very light in stock. In both the lace
and hosiery trades there are many hands only
partially employed, but depression in either branch
is not so great as it was at this period last year.

A:young woman named Catherine B-, living
in the Rue Rochechouart, was arrested yesterday for stab-
bing a student named Ludovic B—, with whom she had
cohabited for some time past. On the day of the crime,
young B— had informed his mistress that he was under
the necessity of breaking off his connexion with her. En-
raged at being unable to induce him to change his resolu-
tion, she seized a knife, and stabbed him in the breast.
B— rushel out upon the stairs, and called for help, but
soon fainted from loss of blood, and though medical aid
was at once procured, in a few minutes he expired. The
young woman made no attempt to escape, and was taken
to the prefecture by the police.
[ADVERTISEMENT].—Holloway's Pills—All kinds of
fevers are most successfully treated by purifying the blood
and invigorating the nerves. Holloway's pills happily effect
these two objects with celerity and certainty. They cool
the system, relax the skin, and mitigate the thirst. They
relieve the head, tranquilise the heart, and induce sleep.
Their beneAcial action is equally apparent in typhoid and
inflammatory fevers. These pills extirpate that root and
origin of all fevers—bad blood—and substitute for it a clear,
renovating, health-generating :fluid, in face of which no
fever can exist. Holloway's incomparable pits increase the
appetite and improve the digestion, therefore, while repel-
ling disease, they are really restoring strength, giving tone
to the nervous system, and energy to the mind.

ITALY.

"A letter from Messina," says the lndependance
of Brussels, " affirms that the Bourbonist committee
at Malta has at last decided on making an attempt
in Sicily. Two bands are to be landed in the
island— one in the environs of Girgenti, the other
near Patti, in the direction of Cefalu. Each band,
it is said, will consist of about 200 men. This ex-
pedition does not cause the least uneasiness in
Sicily, as it can only prove fatal to those who join
it. When all tht, efforts made in the Neapolitan
provinces have proved fruitless, it is absolute mad-
ness to make any attempt in Sicily, where the
Bourbon Government has always been held in
abhorrence."

the season to notice much improvement, neverthe-
less the London and country houses are beginning
to do business, and in a short time trade will doubt-

PRAIRIE BEAU TI ES.

Onr mishap was really worse than we expected—we
were exposed to two "ladies," and of these one was a
Bloomer. It is only fair to state that it was the only her-
maphrodite of the kind that ever met my eyes in the United
States : the great founder of the order has long since sub-
sided into her original obscurity, and her acolytes have
relapsed into the weakness of petticoats. The Bloomer
was an uncouth being, her hair, cut level with her eyes,
depended with the graceful curl of a drake's tail around a
flat, Turanian countenance, whose only expression was
sullen insolence. The body-dress, glazed brown !calico,
fitted her somewhat like a soldier's tunic, developing
haunches which would be admired only in venison ; and—
curious in eonoequenee of woman's nature]—all this sacrifice
of appearance upon the shrine of comfort did not prevent
her wearing that kind of crinoline depicted by Mr. lunch
upon " our Mary Hanne." The pantalettes of glazed brown
calico; like the vest, tunic, blouse, shirt, or whatever they
may call it, were in peg-top style, admirably setting. off a
pair of thin-soled Frenchified patent-leather bottines, with
elastic sides, which contained feet large, broad, and fiat as
a negro's in Unyamwezi. The dear creature had a hus-
band : it was hardly safe to look at her, and as for sketch-
ing her, I avoided it, as men are bidden by the poet to avoid
the way of Slick of Tennessee. The other. Jody," though
more decently attired, was like women
in this wild part of
the world generally.---old and disagreeable in. manner, full
of " proper pride," with a touch me-not air, which re-
minded me of a certain

afterwards the grave that concealed one of his murders was
pointed out to me. This pleasant individual " for an even.
ing party" wore the revolver and bowie-knife here, there,
and everywhere. He had lately indeed had a strong
hint not to forget his weapon. One M. Jules, a French
trader, after a quart el which took place at dinner, walked
up to him and fired a pistol, wounding him in the breast.
As he rose to run away Jules discharged a second,
which took effect upon his back, and then without givng
him time to arm, fetched a gun and favoured him with a
dose of slugs somewhat larger than revolver bullets. The
fiery Frenchman had two narrow escapes from Lynch-
lawyers ; twice he was hung between waggons, and as
often he was cut down. At last he disappeared in the far-
ther West, and took to lodge and squaw. The avenger of

OPAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road.
u Notwithstanding the liberal support which the Com
mittee continue to recrive from the public, the large increase
of destitute sick at this inclement season of the year occasions
a frequent exhaustion of the current resources of the Charity.
The Weekly Board invite benevolent persons to make a per-
sonal visit of inspection as to the mode in which the several
departments of the Charity are conducted.

RUMOURED Loss OF THE PARANA.—A painfol
rumour had been current at Halifax that the steamer
Parana had been lost in the St. Lawrence, with 1,100
troops, but the report cannot be traced to a reliable source.
As the steamer Parana is known to be three or four knots
an hour slower than the Adriatic, her non-arrival need not/
it is held, excite surprise.

CRICKET IN AUSTRALIA,—Of the three absorb-
ing topics of interest during the past month (says the Mel-
bourne Argus)—politics, the sad news of the Victorian ex-
ploration party, and the anticipated visit of the All-Eng-
land cricketers to these shores—the last has been on the in-
crease as each succeeding week has lessened the period
which must elapse before the arrival of the Great Britain.
Already great preparations are being made for the reception
of the Eleven. Subscriptions aro being canvassed to fetch
down the best players from the country districts, so as to
organit•e a team worthy to cope with the Eleven. Practice
has within the last week commenced on the Melbourne
ground, by having 22 placed in the field—it being expected
the Eleven will play agsinst that number—but we fear
that a great deal more practice will be required, as at pre-
sent the fielding is inferior. Some little change of feeling
was produced upon the arrival of the last mail, conse-
quent upon the retirement from the Eleven of several
players whose names were familiar as household words to
most of our cricketers. At the same time, whatever Effect
such change may have upon the "books" of those who make
the event ono of money speculation, the one opinion exists
—that our men will have plenty of work before them, even
if they are beaten by a small majority. Every arrangement
is to be made to fit our cricketing reserve for the thousands
who will assemble on it from all quarters of the three colo-
nies. It has recently been altered as to shape, and at the
same time enlarged. Messrs. Spiers and Pond are erecting
a grand stand, which will be 700 feet long, and which will
contain some thousands of spectators. They will also have
other accommodation. The ground is in first-class order,
and by the system of irrigation proposed the turf will be
fresh and green even in the hottest weather in December or
January.

ASTHMATIC BALSAM, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly eflica,,lons and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, co'ds, confirmed cases of asthma, and consumption.
I tirequently cures persons whom the faculty pronounce in-
curable, admirably allays the tickling which provokes frequent
coughing. In approaching consumption its effects are truly
beneficial. Persons deprived of sleep, or even lying down for
fear of suffocation, may depend on relief in a few minutes
atter taking it. Prepared only and sold by W. Lambert,

" The Use and the Abuse of the Turkish Bath.—A very
useful pamphlet has been published by-Dr. Culverwell, the
proprietor of the Turkish Baths in the nei,zhhourhood of the
Post-office, which presents to the uninitiated a mass of inte-
resting information, while those who have already encouraged
this new system will derive additional advantage if they
observe some of the p actical regulations which the writer
endeavours to enforce."—Fferald and Standard, N0v.12,1861.
" The Post-office Turkish Baths, 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand.
—Dr. Culverw•ll has already established the reputation of
an able physician ; lie has now proved himself to be a worthy
philanthropist, in as far as he has established, in the heart
of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco-
very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice
of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established,
the Turkish Bath. . . Our object being merely to direct
the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess
one of the best set of baths, at 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand,
which the country can produce; perfect in all its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinement,
which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur-
prising, while everything that taste or delicacy could desire
has been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of the
visitor. . We may justly say that if a man ever feels
himself regenerated and new made, it is on coming outof a
urkish Bath."—Era, Oct. 13, 1861.

ITALY.

"A letter from Messina," says the Independance
of Brussels, " affirms that the Bourbonist committee
at Malta has at last decided on making an attempt
in Sicily. Two bands are to be landed in the
island— one in the environs of Girgenti, the other
near Patti, in the direction of Cefalu. Each band,
it is said, will consist of about 200 men. This ex-
pedition does not cause the least uneasiness in
Sicily, as it can only prove fatal to those who join
it. When all the efforts made in the Neapolitan
provinces have proved fruitless, it is absolute mad-
ness to make any attempt in Sicily, where the
Bourbon Government has always been held in
abhorrence."

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—March 24.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ASSAULT ON A RIFLE VOLUNTEER.—George Stone, a
well-dressed man; was charged with assaulting Mr. George
Thomas Woolley, of 38, High-street, Marylebono, a mem-
ber of the Ist Middlesex Engineers.

Mr. Woolley said that between twelve and one on Sun-
day morning he was retiring home with two friends, one
of them and himself being in uniform. When at the cor-
ner of Poland-street, opposite the Princess's Theatre. he
saw a constable with a drunken woman lying on the ground
and struggling together. The defendant tried to
get the woman away from the constable. Tho con-
stable asked him to assist in getting the woman to the
station, and he (Mr. Woolley) did so, when a mob of about
30 or 40 persons, the defendant being the ringleader, fol-
lowed them to the station calling after them, the defendant
inciting the mob to molest them, and calling out "
volunteers." After the woman was locked up, and on his
leaving the station, the mob continued to follow them,
greatly annoying him and his friends, and when near the
Regent-circus the defendant said, " Let the have it.
Let the —with the red coat have it." A man then
snatched at his medals—having been in the Crimean
civil service—or else at his watch chain, and one of
the mob tried to draw out his sword, but ho (com-
plainant) called out to a friend to prevent him. On
getting as far as Harewood-gates the defendant struck at
him, but missed him, and then struck him three severe
blows behind the right ear, causing him great pain all day
yesterday. He afterwards gave the defendant in charge to
a sergeant of police.

Mr. Charles Drabble, of 1, High-street, Marylobone, a
member of the ]st Middlesex Engineers, confirmed the
complainant's evidence.
The defendant said he wai sorry he had interfered.

Mr. Woolley said ho had more witnesses to call, but ho
supposed,not being able to get into the court, thoy had left,
ho having had himself some trouble to get in, and having
had to get in at the back of the court.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said that complaints of the sort had been
made before. He wished to state that it was an open court,
and free for witnesses both for complainants and prisoners,
and he hoped it would not occur again. Ho should fine
the defendant 20s. or 14 days, without ho could settle with
the complainant.
Mr. Woolley said volunteers were so liable to insult that
ho must decline doing so on public grounds.

THE DOA= OV 'WORKS DEFIED.

Mr. Pollard read a letter from Mr. George Legg, district
surveyor, stating that he had summoned the builder that
erected the portico of No. 1, Wilton-place, tt. George's,
Hanover-square, for making it an eneloKd instead of an
open one, as permitted by the board, and that the magis-
trate had refused to inflict a fine, on the ground that the
builder had not exceeded the limits of space granted by the
board, and, therefore, it could not be a public nuisance.
A long discussion ensued upon it. Mr. Bennett urged
the propriety of taking the opinion of a higher tribunal, but
a strong feeling prevailed that the board ought to exercise
its power and remove the parts complained of; but ulti-
mately the matter was referred to the solicitor of the board.
After the routine business the board adjourned.

1111 E PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITII'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-
ciples."
