LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

A GOLD BRACELET " FOUND."—Henry Hawkins, a
shoemaker, of John-street, Lambeth, was charged before
Mr. Knox, at the Marlborough-street Police-court, with
stealing a gold bracelet, the property of some person un-
known. A few days ago the prisoner went into the shop
of Mr. Scrivener, watchmaker and jeweller, of Princes-
street, Story's-gate, and asked Mr. Scrivener whether a
bracelet he produced was gold. Mr. Scrivener told him it
was, and the prisoner then offered it for sale, and, in
answer to some question put to him, accounted for its pos-
session by stating that he had picked it up in a cab in the
Haymarket. Mr. Scrivener told the prisoner that he should
detain the bracelet, take his address, and give information
to the police, and did so. On the 28th of May
Sergeant Mullord, a detective of the L division,
received information from Mr, Scrivener respecting the
bracelet, and on going to the prisoner yesterday and ask-
ing him to account for his possession of it he said that he
was in the habit of minding cabs at a fish-shop in Whit-
combe-stree, and seeing the bracelet lying at the bottom
of a hansom cab he picked it up, put it into his pocket,
said nothing to the driver, and afterwards offered it for
. sale. The prisoner was remanded, and the bracelet (a
gold Belcher chain pattern, with gold heart containing hair
attached) remains in the hands of the sergeant.
RUFFIANLY ASSAULT.—John Ford, a low-looking fel-
low, was charged at the Westminster Police Court with
the following acts of ruffianism. Emily Green, a respect-
able-looking girl, said that she and three others were
standing last night in Lombard-street, Chelsea, when the
accused came up and addressed them in the most revolt-
ing and disgusting language. They told him that they
did not wish to say anything to him, and desired him to
go away. He repeated his filth, and suddenly knocked
complainant down with a violent blow on the face, and
then rushing upon a second girl also assaulted her. He
ran off akd was pursued and captured. The defendant
said the women first interfered with him. A respectable
resident deposed that every word of his statement was
untrue, and that the young women were shamefully
treated. Mr. Self. committed him for three months with ,
hard labour.

SUCKING THE MONKEY—ASSAULT ON A DOCK CON-
STABLE.—CharIes Welpdale, a dock labourer, was charged
at the Thames Police-court with an offence called "suck-
ing the monkey," and assaulting Watson Howard, a con-
stable in the employ of the London and St. Katherine
Dock Company. The constable detected the prisoner in
the act of drinking sherry out of a cask by means of a tube
he had inserted in the bung-hole. The constable seized
him and took the tube (a glass one) from him. The pri-
soner immediately struck him a heavy blow on the right
cheek and felled him to the ground. The prisoner was
sentenced to pay a fine of 20s. or be imprisoned 14 days
for drinking the wine, and one month for the assault on
the constable.

The High Court of Justice has assembled.
According to the Gazette des Tribunaux the arrest of

Complaints have been made of the number of
general officers on the French active list, but it seems
that in 1800 there were 360 generals to 511,000 men ; in
1830, 400 to 250,000 ; and in 1870, 240 to 400,000.

BRIGANDAGE IN ITALY.—Letters from Calabria
state that no further apprehensions of an increase of
brigandage are entertained. In consequence of the dis-
persion of the Filadelfia band all engaged in that move-
ment have returned to their homes. A remnant of the
band of Nathan, consisting of ten persons, is wandering
about in the mountains between the provinces of Como
and Londrio, and is being pursued by the troops.
Several garrisons on the frontiers have been strengthened.
The Swiss gendarmes are echeloned in sight of the
Swiss frontier. A band, numbering sixty persons, com-
prising several students, has appeared north of the Lake

A NEW ANODYNE.—It is announced by several
journals that Dr. Oscar Liebreich, to whom we owe
Protagon and the now well-known Chloral, has dis-
covered a new anodyne to which the name of Chloride of
Athylide (Aeth,ylidenchlorid) has been given. This sub-
stance, which has been repeatedly applied with perfect
success in the clinical hospital of Dr. Langenbeck, is said to
be more rapid and agreeable in its effects than chloro-
form. The chief merit, however, claimed for it is, that it
may be administered without interfering with the free and
natural breathing of the patient, an advantage which it
possesses over most other anaesthetics. As the effect of
the new body is stated to be very transient, the dose must
be repeated in a lengthened operation.—North German
Coreespondent.
ANGLO-GERMAN OPHTHALMIC DISPENSARY.—The
second private subscription ball in aid of the funds of this
excellent society will take place in St. James's Hall, on
Wednesday, the 15th inst.. The list of Lady Patronesses
is long and influential, and amongst the names of stewards
will be found those of several gentlemen of standing and
position. The first ball given for a similar object was so
eminently successful that it has been determined to orga-
nise a second one, and from the energy with which the
friends of the institution are working, and the deserving
character of the charity, it is to be hoped the second ball
will result in more than ordinary success. Those wishing
for further information have only to apply to 15, Old
Cavendish-street, where the secretary will be happy to
give the fullest information respecting either the ball or
the dispensary.

THE DERBY A FUNERAL.—Foreigners who happen
to be in London during the " Derby week " probably from
some odd notions about the scenes of " the road and the
race." Very odd, for instance, was the notion which two
South Anierican lads, newly arrived in Clapham a few
days before the race, got into their heads from seeing the
road." It so happened that the old grandmother in the
family into which they were to be received had died a few
days before their coming. It was found out afterwards that
they wrote home to their friends telling them how the old
lady had died, and how her funeral had taken place on the
following Wednesday, a more splendid funeral than they
had ever heard of, people going all the morning and
coming back all night. We have been told often enough
that we amuse ourselves very sadly, and here is another
testimony of the truth of the saying.—Pall Mall Gazette.
MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF A YOUNG LADY.
—Teignmouth (Devon) with all the neighbourhood, was on
Thursday in a state of great excitement in consequence of
the strange disappearance of Miss Shaw, eldest daughter
of Mr. J. Shaw, Berne-park. The young lady, who is not
quite 13 years of age, left school at five p.m. on Wednes-
day evening, but at ten p.m. had not reached home. Her
father, being alarmed, went to the school to inquire the
reason of her absence, when he found that she had left at
the time above stated, and had been sent by the school-
mistres going in the direction of Bitta-street. She was
afterwards seen by a man named Gill to pass through
Bishopsteignton. She was further supposed to have been
seen riding in a waggon towards Chudleigh. The father
and several friends had been engaged in searching for her
the whole day, but up to ten o'clock on Thursday night
Mrs. Shaw had received no information as to her where-
abouts.— Western Morning News.
A NEW AND IMPORTANT FOOD DISCOVERED 114)R
CHILDREN AND INVALlDS.—Especially deserving more
than a passing notice is " The entire wheat flour."
Nothing hitherto produced has combined all the necessary
qualities for nourishing and sustaining the whole fabric
of the human body. It is especially to be remembered
that during its infancy there is additional work to•be done
in the formation of the various organic substances neces-
sary for the building up of a healthy structure. It is not
enough to supply that which is necessary for one portion
of the body only, all parts must be duly cared for ; there
must be flesh-forming materials to repair the waste of the
muscles and provide for their increase that which sustains
genial warmth and provides for the formation of bone so
rapid used in early life. These essential requisites are not
found in arrowroot and the various starchy foods
generally used, hence the desideratum of a food combining
all that is necessary for the supply of the total demands
of the body. For invalids it is invaluable. As a prepara-
tion for children it is important in the extreme, affording
as it does all the component parts of a perfect food, easily
digestible, more productive of a generally healthy frame
than any other diet. All persons desirous of testing this
invaluable discovery of the entire wheat flour, prepared
by Orlando Jones and Co., can do so not as a mere ex-
periment, but with a certainty of success.

SUDDEN DEATH OF AN OXFORD GRADUATE.
Captain G. F. Lamert, 8.A., of Worcester College,
Oxford, expired suddenly at his residence in Beaumont-
street, Oxford, on Thursday. He held the important office

masons last year, and took an active part in the •Masonic
festivities at the commemoration.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

THE OAKS DAY, 1870.

The sky was yesterday even more clouded than on the
Derby Day, and a fall of rain appeared imminent, almost
at any moment. The weather, kept up, however, and the
famous race was run a few minutes after three without any
unpleasantness whatever. Londoners too clearly saw at noon
that the marked falling-off in interest with which a com-
bination of causes afflicted this year's Derby would be no
less observable at Epsom for the Oaks. ' The attendance
on the course if it was not numerous was brilliant, the
ladies having come down in open barouches, and on drags in
large numbers. The appearance of the dresses in the grand
stand truly gave one at the off side of the course the idea
of shelving banks of flowers, while the numberless
parasols rendered the carriages, posted everywhere
around, scarcely less remarkable. The heat of the day
was very exhausting, and the ladies deserve all praise for
patronising the " maid's day "as they did. The small
field that came to the starting-post caused much
disappointment, and a considerable alteration in
the betting. The following horses were ex-
Tcted to take part in the running :—Hester
ustance), Sunshine (Snowden), Pate (Marsh),
amos (Fordham), Gertrude (T. French), Bright
Weather (Hibbert). The latest betting in town was as
follows :-11 to 8 on Hester, 7 to 2 against Sunshine
(taken), Bto 2 against Pate (taken), 100 to 8 against
Gamos (taken), 20 to 1 against Gertrude (taken). After
the preliminary canter, however, Sunshine and Pâté
gained much favour. Hester still, however, was looked
upon as the queen of the fillies.

Without much difficulty a good start was effected
at the first attempt, and the usual cries, " They're
off" was heard on all sides. They all ran together
for a short distance, when Patd showed in advance
and ultimately she began cutting out the race,
bnt the whole lot were well together. At Tattenham
Corner Hester and Sunshine went up and carried on
. the mulling, With Pate aad Enos ih aloes *tend(
,aeoe: A severe ittvuggle totk pmts here be)
Avretn Sunshiny and the. favourite, but the pact
seemed to tell on Hester, and sunshine went to the fore
, and looked in every sense of the word the winner.
' Pate then improved her position, but Fordiam seemed to
husband the strength of Gamos for one of those rushes
which 'have proved so successful to hip. Matters want
on without much change, either one ,vay or the other,
until within one hundred yard of the judge's
post, when, with the help of whipcord and a
strong jerk Fordham shot Gamos ti the front of Sunshine,
and amidst the most deps,:ning plaudits landed his
mare the winner, thus making up for his failure on the
Derby Day. Pate was third, but the bowling over of the
favourite was a great surprise ana disappointment to
many. Gamos's chance was not looked upon as a
very rosy one, as much as 10 or 12- to 1 could have been
had about her at the start.

Mr. Jones, the owner of Gamos, is but little known in

A. HARE ON THE RACECOURSE,—Just before the
horses were started for the Derby race a hare which had
been roused from among the furzes on the Downs entered
the course at Tattenhana Corner, and made down towards
the Grand Stand ; but the shoutings of the bystanders,
and the efforts of many of them to capture pussy
caused her to beat a retreat, much alarmed at her un-
welcome rec option.
THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA AND THE KING OF
PRUSSIA.—The official press of Berlin have stated that
the visit of the King of Prussia to Ems is only an act of
courtesy, but other interpretations have been put upon
it. It is said that the Russian Government regards with
a jealous eye the fortifications which Prussia has built in
the Island of Alsen and on the coasts of the
Baltic. Prince Gortschakoff did not conceal
from Count Bismarck the annoyance which
his Government experienced at the prospect of
Prussia attaining the command of the Baltic, to which
Russia would wish to have a free access. As the Vice-
Chancellor of the Czar has not followed up his observa-
tions with any definite policy, King William has made
many friendly protestations to the Emperor, doubtless in
the hope of preventing any more energetic remonstrances
on the part of Russia.

The London correspondent of a Manchester paper
says : "We adjourned, I need not now be ashamed to
say, to go to the Derby. Mr. Gladstone's presence on
the Downs on Wednesday sets us all at ease on that point.
I am told by a friend who was on the Grand Stand that
the presence of the right hon, gentleman excited the
greatestinterest and curiosity among the kabitias. With
great prudence he had placed himself in the charge of
Lord Granville, who is, I need not say, as much at home
on the racecourse as he is everywhere else, and who
piloted his chief through the crowd with the most
assiduous and amazing care."
FREE AND OPEN OHURCH.—At a meeting of the
London Free and Open Church Association, the treasurer
reported that, at a meeting which he attended on the 12th
ult., for promoting a new church in the parish of Hoxton,
he had proposed a resolution expressing the sense of the
meeting that all the seats should be free and unappro-
priated, which resolution was carried unanimously. Also
that the neW rector of an important rural parish in the
London diocese had abolished the pew-rents which had
been illegally collected in a chapel of ease in the parish,
and was taking steps to make the chapel free from appro-
priation of seats.

rA.,......E..-J—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Diseases and casualties incidental to youth May be safely
treated by the use of these excellent medicaments, accord-
ing to the printed directions f lded round each box and pot.
Not is this Ointment alone applicable to external ailments.
Conjointly with the Pills, it exercises the most salutary
iu-
fluence. In checking inflammations situated in the interior
of the body, when rubbed upon the back and chest it gives
the most sensible relief in asthma, bron hitis, pleurisy, and
threat ning consumption Holloway's remedies are espe-
cially serviceable in liver and stomach complaints. For the
cure of bad legs, all sorts of wounds, sores, and likewise
scrofula and scorbutic affections, this Ointment produces a
cooling and soothing feeling most acceptable to the sufferer.
