GAROTTING AT PRESTON.—Within the past
week or two garotting has made its appearance in Preston.
The latest case occurred yesterday morning. Between one
and two o'clock. Mr. J. Morgan, a tradesman, was proceed-
ing down Fliargate towards home. When opposite the
end of Union-street, a dark narrow passage from Back
Lane to Friargate, he was accosted by a woman, who, in
a most impudent manner, seized his gold watch guard.
Mr. Morgan, perceiving this, shouted out " Police," but
in a moment afterwards a man, who had evidently been
lurking behind, seised him by the shoulders, threw him
upon his back, stole his watch and guard, and ran
away. On recovering himself Mr. Morgan gave informa-
tion of the robbery, and from the description he gave of
the woman and the man who seized him, a private in the
41st Regiment, stationed at Fulwood Barracks, named John
Dyson, and a woman, named Jane Young, were appre-
hended at a dramshop in Church-street. Dyson, when
searched, was found to have the watch and chain in his
possession. He said that the woman " led him into the
robbery ;" but she said that she knew nothing at all about
it. Yesterday both prisoners were brought up at the Police-
court, and remanded until to-day.

How A BURGLAR IS REFORMED By rilINISH-
MENT.—Yesterday, at the Leeds Town-hall,: Timothy
Canty was brought up on two charges of felony. When

night out of prison, and yet he is found fully equipped with
a stock in trade with which to legume his occupation, He
was committed for trial at the sessions.

MEXICO.

Private advices from Mexico state that the Catho-
lic Archbishop of Guanaxuato, Lerida San Luis,
and .Mexico, had written a letter to General Forey
offering him the whole support of the clergy against
Juarez.

The reported recapture of National Bridge by the
Mexicans is not confirmed.

LIVERPOOL, DEC. 24.

A private telegram, received here from New York
by the Hibernian, states that intelligence had ar-
rived there from Fredericksburg, dated 13th inst.,
11 a.m., announcing that a battle commenced at
9.16 a.m., by General Reynolds attacking the Con-
federate infantry, and that the Confederates imme-
diately opened a heavy fire from their batteries,
which still continued.

ATHENS, DEC. 24.

The universal suffrage has terminated. It is
everywhere favourable to the election of Prince
Alfred.

Public opinion in Greece persists in this choice,
believing that the national sovereignty must sur-
mount all obstacles.

ST. PETERSBURG, DEC. 24.

Prince Gortsehakoff addressed a circular note on
the 2d inst. to the Russian representatives abroad,
stating that Russia never had the intention of put-
ting forward the Duke of Leuchtenberg as a candi-
date for the Greek throne.
The course of the Russian Government has been
dictated by the desire to come to a frank and loyal
understanding with the other protecting Powers,
without any political rivalry, this being the only
means to avoid complications in the East.

The Official Journal of to-day states that Russia
has never expressed any opinion on the candidature
of Don Fernando of Portugal, and that she never
demanded the abrogation of the article of the Greek
constitution referring to the religion of the future
king.

THE CAUSES of PREMATURE DECAY.—
Authors of eminence have ascribed the decline of the
Roman empire to the effeminacy of manners, which precluded
resistance; and this effeminacy they trace chiefly to vicious
habits acquired in early life, by which, in our own time, an
influential journalist has endeavoured to account for the de-
cline of population in the _Asiatic provinces of Turkey.
The peculiar source of physical and moral degeneracy al-
luded to has at all times been specially deprecated by philo-
sophers and philanthropists. It besets inexperienced youth,
laying the foundation of future misery, poisoning the nuptial
cup with bitter malignity; destroying health, curtailing life,
and making it, during' its brief career, a scene of anguish, from
the consciousness of humiliating infirmity.
The evil is but too rife in our age and country ; and expe-
rience can often discern the sad results in the early deaths,
the hereditary and perpetuated allmentg, and the matri-
monial discords and vandals, described, in convential par-
lance, as " unaccountable" and "mysterious." In cases of
threatened injury to or suspension of faculties whose sound-
ness and vigour form su Is a prominent constituent in human
happiness, sufferers may have their fears removed, the mis-
chief, however severe and inveterate, eradicated, and their
warmest hopes of restoration to life's prerogatives fully
realised
Dr. L A.WERT, M.D., has been engaged for 20 yearesin the
treatment of these disorders, and his treatise on "Self-Pre-
servation" describes how all the attributes of Manhood are
lost or suspended, and how they can be restored and main_

WESTMINSTER.

THE BEGINNING or CRlME.—James Garratt, aged 12,
and William Burden, aged 10, were placed at the bar,
charged with stealing a half-quartern loaf.
Mrs. Eliza Busmer, of 27, Radler street, Smith's-ter-
race, Chelsea, stated that last evening she saw Garratt enter
her shop and take the loaf, which he handed to the other
prisoner, who was on the door-step.

Police-constable Charles Happer, 323 B, said when he
took the prisoners their excuse fur taking the bread was
that they had nothing to eat all day.
Mr. Arnold inquired whether the parents of the boys
before him had been informed of their present position
Tho police replied that they had.
Mr. Arnold asked whether they were now in attendance.
The police said that the mother of Garratt was present,
but the mother of Burden was not.

Mr. Arnold inquired whether she said anything about
her son?

The constable replied that she said she did not care much
about him, as ho was going on against her will.
Mr. Arnold asked Mrs. Garratt what she had to say ?
Mrs. Garratt said that her husband was a painter. There
was plenty of food for her son at home, but there was no
keeping him there. Ha would run the streets, and was
forming bad associations from which she should like to see
him rescued.

Mr. Arnold observed that the only way to rescue these
poor boys would be to send them to a reformatory, but their
parents must contribute towards their support.
Mrs. Garratt said willingly.
Prisoners were remanded.

THE EXPLOSION AT EDMUND'S MAIN
COLLIERY.

BARNSLEY, DEC. 23.
After two and a half hours' deliberation the jury
returned the following verdict :

d, We find that William Davy and George Picker-
ing came to their deaths by an explosion of gas in
Edmund's Main pit on Monday, the Bth of Decem-
ber, 1862. For their immediate death we are unable
to attach blame to any individual. The jury at
the same time desire to express their unanimous
opinion that the cause of the explosion was owing
to the incautious and unsafe working of the dip
board of this colliery. The mode of blasting with
powder they (the jury) consider to have been highly
injudicious, and feel sure that it ought not to have
been allowed by the under-viewer or prosecuted by
the workmen."
Mr. E. Parker protested against the verdict.

A silver coin of Titus, the Roman Emperor, has
just been found on a farm at Petit-Quevilly, neur Rouen,
not far from the spot where remains of Roman sepultures
were discovered when the Rouen railway was madG. The
coin bears, on the obverse, a captive kneeling, apparently
naked and in chains; round this figure are the words :
" Imperator Titvs Casar Vespastanvs Avgvstus pontifex
maiiiilus," and on the reverse " Tribvnitia potestate VIIII
Impero.tor XIIII Consvlibus VII Pater Patria." The
medal was consequently struck in A.D. 79, and seems to
have been intended to commemorate the victories, obtained
for the Emperor Titus by Agricola, over the barbarians a

MR. ADAMS TO EARL RUSSELL, JUNE 23, 1862.
I am now under the painful necessity of appris-
ing your lordship that a new and still more power-
ful war steamer is nearly ready for departure from
the port of Liverpool on the same errand. This
vessel has been built and launched from the dock-
yard of persons, one of wham is now sitting as a
member of the House cf Commons, and is fitting out
for the especial and manifest object of carrying on
hostilities by sea. It is about to be commanded by
one of the insurgent agents, the same who sailed in
the Oreto. The parties engaged in the enterprise
are persons well known at Liverpool to be agents
and officers of the insurgents in the United States
the nature and extent of whose labours are well
expiained in the copy of an intercepted letter of one
of them, which I received from my government
some days ago, and which I had the honour to place
in your lordship's hand on Thursday last.
I now ask permission to transmit, for your con-
sideration, a letter addressed to me by the Consul
of the United States at Liverpool, in confirmation
of the statements here submitted, and to solicit such
action as may tend either to stop the projected ex-
pedition, or to establish the fact that its purrose is
not inimical to the people of the United States.

and William Burden, aged 10, were placed at the bar,
charged with stealing a half-quartern loaf.
Mrs. Eliza Busmer, of 27, Radley-street, Smith's-ter-
race, Chelsea, stated that last evening she saw Garratt enter
her shop and take the loaf, which he handed to the other
prisoner, who was on the door-step.
Police-constable Charles Rapper, 323 B, said when he
took the prisoners their excuse for taking the bread was
that they had nothing to eat all day.
Mr. Arnold inquired whether the parents of the boys
before him had been informed of their present position ?
The police replied that they had.
Mr. Arnold asked whether they were now in attendance.
The police said that the mother of Garratt was present,
but the mother of Burden was not.

Mr. Arnold inquired whether she said anything about
her son?

The constable replied that she said she did not care much
about him, as he was going on against her will.
Mr. Arnold asked Mrs. Garratt what she had to say 1,

Mrs. Garrett said that her husband was a painter. There
was plenty of food for her son at home, but there was no
keeping him there. He would run the 'streets, and was
forming bad associations from which she should like to see
him rescued.

Mr. Arnold observed that the only way to rescue these
poor boys would be to send them to a reformatory, but their
parents must contribute towards their support.
Mrs. Garratt said willingly.
Prisoners were remanded.

OYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
U in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at King's-cross.
Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCII, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.

This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of aovernors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.

The Weekly !board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued support,
to enable them to F dmit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward
Masierman, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and

GAROTTING AT PRESTON.—Within the past
week or two garotting has made its appearance in Preston.
The latest case occurred yesterday morning. Between one
and two o'clock. Mr. J. Morgan, a tradesman, was proceed-
ing down Friargate towards home. When opposite the
end of Union-etreet, a dark narrow passage from Back
Lane to Friargate, he was accosted by a woman, who, in
a most impudent manner, seized his gold watch guard.
Mr. Morgan, perceiving this, shouted out " Police," but
in a moment afterwards a man, who had evidently been
lurking behind, seized him by the shoulders, threw him
upon his back, stole his watch and guard, and ran
away. On recovering himself Mr. Morgan gave informa-
tion of the robbery, and from the description he gave of
the woman and the man who seized him, a private in the
41st Regiment, stationed at Fulwood Barracks, named John
Dyson, and a woman, named Jane Young, were appre-
hended at a dramshop in Church-street. Dyson, when
searched, was found to have the watch and chain in his
possession. He said that the woman "led him into the
robbery ;" but she said that she knew nothing at all about
it. Yesterday both prisoners were brought up at the Police-
court, and remanded until to-day.
HOW A BURGLAR IS REFORMED BY PUNISH-
limit —Yesterday, at the Leeds Town-hall,: Timothy
Canty was brought up on two charges of felony. When
tho prisoner's carpet bag was searched at the police office
it was found to contain a scientifically-formed " jemmy,"
a dark lantern, several bunches of desk and office keys,
the key of a beer barrel, and other implements;
and was also found in possession of a clothes brush
and
cloth cap which he had stolen from two
shops in Kirkgate. On referring to the antecedents of the
it was discovered that he was only discharged from
Castle on the 6th inst., after serving 12 months for a
burglary at Patrington, in the North Riding, on the 6th
Dec., 1861.
On that occasion his plunder amounted to
and other valuables. He has been rather more than a fort-
night out of prison, andyet

MEXICO.

Private advices from Mexico state that the Catho-
lic Archbishop of Guanaxuato, Letidt, San Luis,
and Mexico, had written a letter to General Forey
offering him the whole support of the clergy against
Juarez.

The reported recapture of National Bridge by the
Mexicans is not confirmed.

LIVERPOOL, DEC. 24.

A private telegram, received here from New York
by the Hibernian, states that intelligence had ar-
rived there from Fredericksburg, dated 13th inst.,
11 a.m., announcing that a battle commenced at
9.16 a.m., by General Reynolds attacking the Con-
federate infantry, and that the Confederates imme-
diately opened a heavy fire from their batteries,
which still continued.

ATHENS, DEC. 24.

The universal suffrage has terminated. It is
everywhere favourable to the election of Prince
Alfred.

Public opinion in Greece persists in this choice
believing that the national sovereignty must sur•
mount all obstacles.

ST. PETERSBURG, DEC. 24.

Prince Gortsebakoff addressed a circular note on
the 2d inst. to the Russian representatives abroad,
stating that Russia never had the intention of put-
ting forward the Duke of Leuchtenberg as a candi-
date for the Greek throne.
The coarse of the Russian Government has been
dictated by the desire to come to a frank and loyal
understanding with the other protecting Powers,
without any political rivalry, this being the only
means to avoid complications in the East.

The Official Journal of to-day states that Russia
has never expressed any °pinball on the candidature
of Don Fernando of Portugal, and that she never
demanded the abrogation of the article of the Greek
constitution referring to the religion of the future
king.

CONVICT DISCIPLINE.

Tne following memorial has been forwarded to
Sir George Grey by the Bristol Association for
obtaining an alteration in convict discipline

To the Right Honourable Sir George Grey, Bart., her Ma
jesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Home Dc-

partment.
The respectful memorial of the association formed in Bris-
tol for promoting an improved 'administration of convict
discipline in England.

We have observed with the greatest concern the condi-
tion of discharged convicts in this country, very many of
whom are found to return to crime, without the slightest
good effect to themselves from their punishment.
We believe that means, much better than those at present
employed, might be used to prepare for freedom the 1,600
or 2,000 convicts annually discharged, and to afford such a
test of the preparation as might be satisfactory to the em-
ployers of labour, and not leave the discharged criminals to
crime as their only means of living.
We find that as to those who are discharged on condi-
tional license or ticket of leave, the conditions indorsed on
the license are not enforced, nor are any sufficient means
taken to ascertain their fulfilment.

Experience shows that it is possible to provide a system
of treatment during imprisonment, an immediate prepara-
tion for discharge, and a wholesome supervision during the
remainder of the sentence, which might prevent the pre-
sent frightful condition and practices of the convicts,
qualify them, in a considerable proportion of the cases, to
be taken again into society, and furnish to the employers of
labour the necessary test of fitnesi.

Wo think that Ireland (under the operation of the same
statutes as England) and other countries have furnished
such experience. Discharged convicts are shown to be not
necessarily a nuisance and terror to their neighbourhood,
but they may gain a position as honest and industrious
workmen.

We most earnestly entreat that means may be taken for
greatly altering and improv,ng the present discipline of con-
victs in England by a very different and a better adminis-
tration of the law ; and that every convict now on ticket-
of-leave, who can be ascertained to have infringed the terms
of his license, may be returned to prison ; and that as to
those who may for the future be at liberty on license (which,
according to the regulations, will now embrace every con-
vict reported to be well conducted), the conditions of the
license may be enforced with proper supervision.
Signed by the President, Chairman. Vice-Chairman, and
Committee, on behalf of the Assobiation.

President, Right Hon. Earl Ducie, Lord-Lieutenant of
Gloucestershire and Bristol ; Chairman, M. D. Hill, Esq ,
Q.C., Recorder of Birmingham; Hon. Secretary, James
Livett, Esq., Cotham, Bristol.
