Mr. John Gaylor, Joan of Arc-place, Old Ford, Bow,
grocer and cheesemonger, said the prisoner was in his debt
£4 3s. at the close of last year for goods supplied. On the
14th of January the prisoner brought him a cheque on the
London, Birmingham, and South Staffordshire Bank
(Limited), No. 110, Cheapside, for £5 125., and he gave
him the difference, £l9s. The cheque was sent to the bank,
and returned with the words, " Dishonoured, no account,"
written on it.

Edward Cable, 241 K, police-constable, said he took the
prisoner into custody last night at his office, 36, Alderman-
bury. He told him ho held a warrant against him for
defrauding Mr. El vaston. The prisoner said he had already
sent the money to him. He said to the prisoner, " Your
name is Broadbent," to which ho replied, "No, it is not.
You have made a mistake. My name is West."
A voice at the back of the court here called out, " Ho
has done me," "Ah, and me too," exclaimed another.
Mr. Partridge said there was no occasion to go into any
more cues at present. Ho remanded the prisoner for a
week.

THE LATE LORD PALMERSTON.

Immediately on taking the chair, Mr. 11. L.
TAYLOR, the chairman pro tem., said—l am sure but
one feeling exists throughout this country, and which
is shared by every member of this Board, and that
is one .of regret at the loss the country has sustained
in the death of Lord Palmerston. (hear, hear.) I
am sure, therefore, that we shall simply do what is
necessary on this occasion by passing a resolution
expressive of deep sympathy at the loss which the
country at large and this Board has 'sustained.
(Hear, hear.)
Mr. TITE, M.P., said—l have had no communica-
tion
with our chairman, but I think it will be be-
coming on my part to say a word or two on the
present occasion. I have had the honour of being
a humble supporter of Lord Palmerston during the
time I have been in Parliament, and I can speak
with confidence as to the ability and carewhich he de-
voted to every part of the Government, and his
great desire to promote any measure which should
benefit the great mass of the people. It is not my
desire, in any degree, to touch upon politics, as this
is not the proper place to do so ; but we all felt that
in his hands the honour of England was safe, and
we can only express our regret that he has been so
suddenly ta„.ken from us. It was only on the 2d of
September that I had an interview with him, when
he spoke to me with his usual kindness on his pro-
mised visit to-Brstpcsl, and afterwards to Bath, on
the 'occasion of the opening of the Industrial Exhi-
bition at the former place. Owing to illness he was
obliged to postpone his visit, and now we have to
regret the loss of a kind, good, and generous
man, who was also a very warm supporter of our
Board. I therefore beg to move the following reso-
lution :

"Resolved, that this Board feels called upon to record its
sense of the great loss this country has sustained in the
death of its Prime Minister, the Right Hon. Viscount Pal-
merston—a man who through the course of a long life de-
voted to the service of his country has always maintained
the honour of great Britain, its prosperity, and its institu-
tions ; that during his administration the country has been
successfully conducted through great difficulties, and the
blessings of peace secured to the nation. That a copy of
this resolution be communicated to Lady Palmerston, with
the respectful assurance of the condolence of this Board,
and their deep sympathy in the great loss she has sus-
tained."

MEXICO.

Advices have been received from Vera Cruz to the
sth inst. The district of Oajaca is reported to be in
insurrection against the Imperialists. Disturbances
are also announced in Sinola.

The Einperor Maximilian is said to have appointed
Lieut. Maury honorary State Councillor, and Gen.
Price and several other Confederates as agents to
examine land for colonisation.

Washington represents the position of the Republi-
cans as generally favourable. One thousand Aus-
trians, who left Jalapa and Perate to surprise Ala-
toine, are reported to have been defeated with a
loss of 600 prisoners and all their artillery. The
date of the alleged engagement is not given.
General Ortega has been arrested at the suit of
Colonel Allen, who asserts that Ortega authorised
him to enlist recruits for Mexico, but now refuses
to refund Allen's expenses. Ortega denies having
given Allen:any such authority. He has been ad-
mitted to bail.

An experiment was made yesterday on the Quai

de la Concorde, with a locomotive dragging a large
carriage, not unlike the diligences of the olden times,
laden with passengers inside and outside. The same
kind of locomotive has recently been tried in Algeria
in presence of a committee who reported warmly in
its favour, stating that the engine in question could
run 20 kilometers (12i miles) per hour on ordinary
roads, and could go faster and slower, or stop or
turn with as great facility as carriages drawn by the
best-trained horses.

Dr. Ceuniere, of Levallois-Courcelles, near Paris,
has written to the journals to say that he has sent
word to the Minister of the Interior, the Prefect of
the Bouches-du-Rhone, and the Turkish ambassa-
dor, to offer his services in treating the cholera,
which malady he has studied on many occasions in
India and, at Madagascar. In those countries, he
adds, no doubt whatever exists as to the cause of
the disease being nothing else than exceedingly small
animalcule of a special kind, oviparous, and multi-
plying with exceeding rapidity. They are suddenly
formed in the human intestines, where they breed.
If the general hygienic state of the patient is strong
enough to resist their attacks, they die out imme-

favourable to their propagation, they soon produce
a :disorganisation, which increases with extraordi-

The Fenian Fund,

(From Punch.)
it is not often that we produce a mere article of news,
without comment of our own, but we feel it the duty of
every English journalist to give as much publicity as pos-
sible to the strange and disgraceful facts revealed in the
following list of American contributions to the Fenian
fund. The list itself was found among the papers upon
the person of one of the Americans who was arrested in the
Australian, on the 14th inst., and has been published
among the evidence taken at tho Castle. Only the gravest
considerations would induce us to depart frum the ordinary
custom of this journal in regard to news, but in presence
of the impending crisis the case is exceptional.
Contributions received, or promised, in New York,
Washington, and Boston, to the Fund in aid of the Irish

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A SOLDIER CHARGED WITH ASSAULTING AN HOTEL
KEEPER.—George Barber, a private of the 3d battalion
of Grenadier Guards, was charged before Mr. Knox with
being drunk and assaulting Mr. Charles Elmo Franca-
telli, manager of the St. James's Hotel, Berkeley-street,
Piccadilly.

Mr. Francatelli said that for some days past the pri-
soner had been parading in front of the hotel, his ob-
ject being to annoy one of the female servants who had
discolitinued his acquaintance about four months. Last
evening the prisoner came again, and threw stones at
the pantry window. He wont out and requested the
prisoner to go away, and as he refused be got the as-
sistance of a constable, and on the constable requesting
the prisoner to leave, ho turned round and struck him
(Mr. Francatelli). He then gave the prisoner into cus-
tody. On the way to the station the prisoner, who had
been drinking, was very violent, and took off his belt.
Mr. Albert Willey, residing at the St. James's Hotel,
proved seeing the prisoner throw i stone at the window,
and also struck Mr. Francatelli. When the prisoner was
being taken to the station he resisted a good deal, and
took off his belt, but was prevented using it.
Henry Ricketts, 12 C, said ho went with Mr. Francatelli
and advised the prisoner to go away. He refused and
struck Mr. Francatelli. Ho was very violent on the way
to the station, took off his belt, and would have used it if
he had not been prevented. It required four constables
to tako the prisoner, who was drunk, to the station.
The prisoner received a fair character from his sergeant.
The prisoner made no defence.

Mr. Knox said he could not pass over the prisoner's
conduct, as he had behaved with great violence. It was
a fortunate circumstance for the prisoner that he had been
prevented using his belt, as he might have been sent for

Ile should commit the prisoner for a month with hard
ab our.

INDIA.

We take the following summary of news from the
Calcutta Englishman of the 22d of September :
" From the Bhootan frontier we have this week
no news of importance to relate. After the
defiant rejection of our terms by the Deb Rajah
war. seems inevitable, and every preparation con-
tinues accordingly. A reconciliation has taken
place between this potentate and the notorious
Tongso Penlow, who, in a recent communication
we hear, intimated to the Deb Rajah that he and
Doggo Penlow would be at Tassisudon after the
rains, and consider their plans for recapturing the
Dooars. This, of course, greatly diminishes the
chances of peace. It is not expected that the
troops will not march into the enemy's country
before the end of the year.
" The Cabul correspondent of the Delhi Gazette
sends that journal some curious intelligence from
Central Asia, where the actual state of affairs is as
little known to us as in England. It is stated, on
the authority of letters received from merchants
in Bokhara, that the King of Bokhara has confi -
cated the property of the Russian merchants there,
that the Russians had done the same IN ith the pro-
perty of Bokhara and Cabul merchants, and that
the King of Bokhara has marched a large body of
troops against the Russians. Among other reasons
for looking with suspicion upon this intelligence is
the contradictory fact that Bokhara is known to
favour the cause of Ufzul Khan ; and there is, con-
sequently, no obvious connection between a quarrel
between Russia and Bokhara and the confiscation
by the Russians of the property of Cabul merchants.
If, however, such a quarrel had really taken place,
its effect will be to accelerate the complete subjuga-
tion and absorption by Russia of the whole of
Central Asia.

" The Viceroy leaves Simla on the 9th proximo.
It was his intention to remain at Agra during the
first three months of the cold weather, and to hold a
durbar, to which all the chiefs of Rajpootana would
be invited, proceeding to Calcutta in the beginning
of January, and returning to Simla in March. This
plan, however, has just been entirely upset by a
telegram from the Secretary of State, refusing to
sanction it, and insisting on the immediate return of
the Viceroy to Calcutta. The Viceroy would have
acted in a more dignified manner had he kept his
plans quiet till, sure that he would be permitted to
carry them out. The control of the Secretary of State
over the action of the Local Government, exercised,
as it now is, without even a decent degree of respect
for dignity or authority, is daily bringing it into
greater contempt, and it is deeply to be regretted
the Viceroy should again and again afford reason-
able grounds for such objectionable interference.

GENERAL BUTLER ON RECONSTRUCTION.—The
New York Herald states that General Howard entertained
an audience at the Union League Rooms in Washington
on 'the 6th instant. A statement was received by proxy
from General Butler, who was expected to be present,
giving a few peculiar views upon reconstruction. He
favored the confiscation of all
.Southern lands travelled
over by otir arniies, and colonising theui with discharged
soldiers. Ho anticipated that the first call for help from
the South would be from former slaveholders rather than
freedmen, and intimated that in such a case Massachusetts
would bo among the most active States in furnishing
assistance.

MEXICO.

Advices have been received from Vera Cruz to the
sth inst. The district of Oajaca is reported to be in
insurrection against the Imperialists. Disturbances
are also announced in Sinola.

The Emperor Maximilian is said to have appointed
Lieut. Maury honorary State Councillor, and Gen.
Price and several other Confedtrates as agents to
examine land for colonisation.

Semi-official intelligence from Mexico received at
Washington represents the position of the Republi-
cans as generally favourable. One thousand Aus-
trians, who left Jalapa and Perate to surprise Ala-
toine, are reported to have been defeated with a
loss of 600 prisoners and all their artillery. The
date of the alleged engagement is not given.
General Ortega has been arrested at the suit of
Colonel Allen, who asserts that Ortega authorised
him to enlist recruits for Mexico, but now refuses
to refund Allen's expenses. Ortega denies having
given Allen:any such authority. He has been ad-
mitted to bail.
