SWEATING THE GOLD COIN.

At the Central Criminal Court, on Monday, a case
was heard of more than usual interest, as shewing the pro-
cess by which the sovereign is impaired and diminished
by professional "sweaters." _ _

James Clifford, labourer, and Ellen Clifford, his daughter,
aged twelve years, were indicted, the former with felo-
niously impairing, diminishing, and lightening certain
sovereigns and half-sovereigns, the latter with ut-
tering the same. The Mint authorities prosecuted,
and the prisoners were undefended. Inspector Brennan
in the employ of the Mint proved the discovery of the
prisoner's avocation by watching the girl go to various
shops in Clerkenwell and change gold coin. She was
closely questioned by the officers, and said she received
the money from her father, who was a collector in the city.
The officers proceeded to the house where the prisoners
lived, entered the first-floor back room, and found the
man Clifford, sitting at a bench, with his hand on a box.
He was instantly seized, and one of the inspectors took
from his coat pocket two sovereigns and a pistol, loaded
with ball and capped. The sovereigns, from their
glossy appearance, had evidently been tampered
with. A battery used for the purpose of " sweating " the
coin was found, and some chemical solutions. A
life-preserver and a dagger were also found. The prisoner
remarked, "I suppose you chaps expected to find me coining."
Evidence was given of the child having passed sovereigns
at a number of different shops, and it was proved by Mr.
Roberts, chemist at her Majesty's Mint, that the battery
found in the prisoner's possession would extract gold from
a sovereign or would decompose it. He had himself
charged the battery, and using a solution of cianide
of potassium, had obtained 3-10ths of a grain of gold in an
hour. One of the sovereigns produced he found to be 11
grains deficient, another 121 grains, another 13 grains, and
one as much as 15 grains less than its proper weight. The
male prisoner made a clever defence, in which he said
he had been an artilleryman, and the reason why ho had a
loaded pistol was because he used it to experimentise
the charge in measure and weight with a torpedo.
He accounted for the presence of arms in
his house by saying that he had brought them
from foreign countries. He contended that the prosecution
had failed to prove that he had diminished the coin, or
that he knew they were light, or that his daughter did.
He also said that the fact of his having a pension would
deter him from committing such an offence.
The jury found the male prisoner guilty, and he was
sentenced to two years' hard labour. The girl was dis-
;harged.

WOMEN'S lIIGHTS.

A letter from Mr. J. S. Mill was read at the
annual meeting of the National Woman Suffrage
Association, held on the 18th. The economist
expressed his inability to visit America to
aid the cause, but added that the success
of women's friends in their own country
was the most important co-operation. "For Great
Britain this success is much greater than appears on
the surface, for our people, as 'you know, shrink
much more timidly than Americans from attracting
public notice to themselves; and the era of great pub-
lic meetings on this subject has not arrived in our
country, though it may bo near at hand."

LA TV INTELLIGENCE—(This Day).

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
DR. WILLIAMS V. THE DUKE OF SO3IERSET.
Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., applied this morning, in the
action for libel which Dr. Williams has brought
against the Duke and Duchess of Somerset, for a
postponement until the sittings after Easter term.
The affidavits stated that the Duchess of Somerset,
who might be a necessary witness, was suffering
from neuralgia and an affection of the leg, and might
not be able to attend the court for th:ee weeks cr
a month.
The Solicitor-General, who appeared for the
plaintiff, objected to a postponement on the ground
of the serious nature of the libel. The Duchess of
Somerset had called Dr. Williams a " bpocritical
murderer," and one of the charges was that he had
deliberately allowed the only son of the Duke and
Duchess to die because he would not meet another
medical man, and that he mismanaged the case from
professional spite.
Mr. Hawkins—No, no.
The Solicitor-General—The Duchess of Somerset
has chosen to circulate the libel for months.
Mr. Hawkins—You must not state that it is not
set out in your affidavits.
The Solicitor-General—The libel has been in
general circulation for months, and the profes-
sional character of Dr. Williams has seriously
suffered by it. The defendants have not pleaded
any justification, and they have almost admitted
the authorship. Dr. Williams is most anxious to
have the case tried ; but now your lordship is
asked to postpone it until July, on the ground
that there is something the matter with the veins
of the duchess's leg.
Mr. Hawkins, in reply to the learned judge, said
he believed it would be necessary to call the
duchess at the trial.
The Solicitor-General—Then, let the Duchess be
examined by commission, and her evidence read to
the jury. Do not let Dr. Williams continue to
suffer from a libel of which, in the whole course of
my professional experience, I have never seen the
like, and which has been in unbroken circulation
for months. I trust your lordship will not post-
pone the trial.
Mr. Hawkins—The answer of the Duchess is re-
quired in answer to the statements made by Dr.
Williams himself, and that makes it impossible to
have her examined by commission. The learned
counsel added that, there being no plea of justifi-
cation, the truth of the libel, as regards the
serious charges referred to, was not intended to
be set up.
The Solicitor-General—But a good deal of mis-
chief may be done without standing up for the exact
truth of the libel.
Mr. Baron Bramwell decided that the case
should • not be tried before the eighth day of the
next sittings in London, with liberty to the de-
fendants to examine the Duchess by commission, if
necessary.

marauders, but of very little service against an attack.
It is eight o'clock and quite dark. The volunteers have
climbed up the sideway, and are concealed behind a
tolerably thick hedge. The silence is deep. One can
only hear a few words pass in a low
voice. There is a moment of real emotion.
Soon it was ascertained there was no cannon
in the question. One cannon ball would have been
quickly followed by another, or at least by a fusillade, and
all was still around us. Nothing was to be heard but the
locomotives in the distance, and the voices of the groups
who began to stir at sight of the lanterns. The shock we
felt had been caused by a collision with another train.
From the spot where we were to Rethel, whose lights we
could see in the distance, five hundred carriages occupied
the road. It was against the last of these stationary
trains that ours had run. A curve in the line had
prevented our engine-man from seeing it on leaving the
tunnel, and had not one of the volunteers perceived it the
consequences might have been much more serious. As it
was our engine was greatly damaged and overturned the
luggage-vans of the train we ran into. Several of the
volunteers were injured more or less. The same accident
had happened in the morning to a train whose occupants
were frightened, and jumped out. There was
nothing really serious, however, to regret. Com-
posure was restored, and the perfect quiet of
the surrounding country reassured us. The vol-
unteers took their knapsacks and we our light valises
and we started for Rethel. The Emperor was at Rethel
the Prince Imperial was there ; but they left this morn-
ing, looking sad and suffering, in the midst of a torrent of
rain. The Emperor lodged at a house, and had his dinner
brought from the inn. His intendant came to pay, and
gave double the sum charged as a gift to the servants.
All the cortege set off looking melancholy enough. I
know where he is going much better than I know where
lam going. We can only follow the railway line. To
take a carriage in the country is impossible, and as for
going on fcot, I confess that after six weeks of this sort of
life lam no longer equal to it. How, too, will my letters
reach you? The post is by no means sure in this country.
However, I must do my best.—Georges Jeannerod in Le
Temps.

MACMAHON'S ARMY.

"Lost ! supposed to have strayed somewhere in the
provinces, two or more great armies in the territory
of Prance. Whoever can give any trustworthy infor-
maticni as to where they can be found, or were
last actually seen, will be liberally rewarded."
Such, says the Standard, might be the wording of Et
bill or placard issued by the curious of all nations,
and dated August 29, 1870. righting had been going on,
near Stenay, where MacMahon, or MacMahon's men, or
Bazaine, or a portion of his host, may have been, one or
other of them, engaged. No one yesterday was very clear
on these points, and if we in England do not know we may
be pretty certain that the Parisians are no better informed,
At any rate a force of nearly 150,000 men is lost from view irt
the case of MacMahon, who disappeared on Tuesday last
to turn Up, heads or tails, as Mars, a great gambling
deity, but too generally on the side of the stronger batta-
lions, may decree. It appears incredible, among the
strangest features of this astounding war, that during the.
space of nearly one week, in a country like France, so
populous p.nd so intersected with roads and railways and
telegrapind wires, a great army should be thus absolutely lost
from sight. Vet so if is. Probably the railways may
have much to do with it; and still more the dread fact
that France is now an invaded territory, more helpless
and more confused in proportion to its vast population
and tesonrces. In former days great campaigns were not
thus carrie'cl oni The movements of troops were far slower
in proportion idsli the rate of travelling by coaches
and dihgences compared 'With that which railways have of
late years introduced. PriiSeti' has inaugurated the era
of rapid invasions. But to be Sticeessful on her system
they must be consistently and continnottsly rapid, and an
error in ettmbination or a great disaster would be followed
with fatal results just as swift and conclusive on the
invading side.

THE PRUSSIANS AT RHEIMS.
PA ISIS, A rousT

The Prince Imperial arrive.' at Mezierei on
Saturday afternoon. The Emperor was also exptcted
there from Poix.

Two Prussian army corps, each about 12,000
strong, held positions oh Saturday ou the heights
near Rheims.

• T.t is believed that the Prussians have 100,000
between Epernay and Rheims. Preparations are
being made for a vigorous defence of the latter place.
Letters from Rheims complain that the discipline of
the French troops is becdluin somewhat relaxed,
and that there Were a great number of stragglers
When on the march. A foeign legion is foriming at
/fours. Preparations to resist the Prussian advance
are being made within a circuit of 80 to 40 leagres
from Pltris. The detached forts are supplied with
800 rounds of ammunition. Immense qua.itities of
provisions of all kinds are continually' arriving in
Paris, and the distribution of arms is proceeding on
a large scale.

Yesterday, about 800 of the Guard Mobile and a

may be seen that these men are not very dangerous
to our troops.

BELGIAN NEUTRALITY.

BRUSSELS, AUGUST 28.
The Etoile Belg of to-day publishes the fellowibg
in reference to the neutrality of Belgium :—" We
said in our number of Thursday that in case of an
attack being Made upon Givet, a French town on
the Meuse, situated within gunshot distance of the
Belgian frontier, our Belgian army ought to ap-
proach the frontier in order to repel, should it be
necessary, all violation of our territory. We
learn to-day that such a movement has been
made since yesterday. Many troops of the
garrisons of the interior • have reeeived
orders to proceed towards the valley bf the Meuse
to reinforce the Army of Obeervation, and it is esti-
mated that about 50;000 men are concentrated at
that point. As We have remarked, Givet is situated
on a point which forms a narrow and deep indenta-
tion in our territory, and if one or other of the belli-
gerent corps d'armeCe should be there driven back,

the situation would certainly be a very delicate one
for our army, because penned up in that wilier, the
belligerents might be tempted to fall back i❑ the
direction of Charlemont and Phillipsville in order to
regain the French territory at another point.
Now, in such a case it would be impois
Bible for our army to hesitate in the face of the
instructions it has received, hod it would immediately
commence hostilities to guarantee our territory from
every attack. That is a law which will be imposed
upon us by the conditions of neutrality in which
we are placed."

THE BELGIAN ARMY OF
OBSERVATION.
BRUSSELS, AtiGU3l' 29 (EVENING).
The Belgian Army of Observation is concentrated
on the extreme limit of the Belgian territory on the
Luxembourg frontier. The greater part of the garri-
son of Brussels is about to leave to join the Army of
Observation, and the advanced guard left to-day.

THE FRENCH SOLDIERS IN ROME.

Our correspondent* from Rome states that the
French soldiers in the Pope's own army are most
anxious to leave, and have with great difficulty been
restrained from making a demonstration before the
French Embassy, desiring to be sent back to France
for the defence of the capital. Fifteen were arrested
in the act of carrying a tricolor flag to the Piazza
Colonna and singing the " Alarseillaise." It would
be far more politic to disband the regiment at once,
as the few officers who remain will soon be utterly
incapable of resisting the current which calls
imperatively for every able-bodied Frenchman
at home, and although the regiment is per-
fectly well-affected to the Popo, it is becoming
discontented at being kept out of action.
The situation of the Pope in the event of any
sudden commotion would be most critical, as he
would be virtually a prisoner. With Civita Vecchia
he would lose his communications with France. Only
one small brig remains in port to protect French
subjects. The Italian fleet is cruising between
Corsica and Livorno, and may appear on the Roman
coast again at any moment.

THE DRILL OF OUR ARMY.

A new edition of "The Field Exercise and Evolu-
tions of Infantry" has been
,issued for the British

---
army. Nearly eighteen months ago a committee of
_ ...•

picked officers began the revision of the old code,
and the work now published is the result of their
labours. The chief alterations in the old method of
drilling now ordered relate to the order in which
infantry can best confront an enemy, armed as
enemies now are with far more destructive weapons
then when the last " evolution " book was issued.
Skirmishing, for instance, is made simpler and more
effective, but, although the 1866 campaign showed
that no troops, in anything but broken order, could
get within three hundred yards of the enemy, the
authorities still seem determined to retain " the thin
red line" system, so well remembered in the Crimea.
'1 lie practice, it is believed by some officers,
will lead to the annihilation of the line
on the first occasion that skirmishers are placed side
by side in front of the foe, and then, probably, but
not till then, the admiration for the time honoured
institution will diminish. Henceforth the captains
will occupy in the field positions in rear of the centres
of their companies where they can see the men, and
not places as before at the flank, where they could
not. This is unquestionably an intelligible improve-
ment, as also is the regulation which orders
the shortening of all words of command and cau-
tious. No longer will it be matter of painful
suspense to the rank and file to know the full extent,
or the most important portion, of the order issued to
them. Volunteers will especially be grateful that
their colonel in future shall simply say "Halt !"
where he before used to say, "First Administrative
Battalion Blanlishire Artillery Volunteers, Halt !"

6PIRIT OF THE PRESS.
x. #ACMAiial'eS STRATEGY.

The :times coUtiders that the great aim of MacMahon
has not even yet
,ben attained ; it can never be
attained, unless he can fight his way through the
Prildslans froth Montmedy to Yienville and Metz;
nor is it cittitti Certain that he can fight his way
through the Prussiaild back to his former quarters at
Rheims or Chalons, or that hd cOn extricate himself from
the f‘osition into which he has brought himself,—a posi-
tibii hardly more enviable than that of Bazaine hintself,
from Which there is no other outlet than acrcsa the Bel-
gian frontier. Desperate valour may, indeed, do wanders;
for both the French Marshals,' but, so far as one can judge
from present appearances, thq, are both so overmatched
separately, that it is difficult to triderstand how people
in Paris can fail to see that MacMahon, in his attempt to
rescue Bazaihe, has probably lost himself. People in
Paris, however, think that MacMahon, even if he can do
no tticite. has achieved a great deal by delaying the
Crown Prince's advance on their city. By his masterly
strategy; they think, MacMahon has averted the storm
that was ready to burst an the capital. This may be so,
btit he has at the same time removed the last obstacle
against thd iftfaders' advance. So long as the Prussians
on their march to-Wards Paris had MacMahon and his
army at Chalons or tat Rheims, or even further on
at Laon and Soissons, it was only with a large
force they could venture far into the interior of
the country. But now, with Bazaine at Metz and
AfacMa.lion at Montmedy, they have open ground
before them to the west, north, or south ; and
their &W ens tihlans, who were so fearless in their
movements while they still had an army on their flank
will hardly limit theif inentsions now that the last French
force has voluntarily moved Mit of their path. In the opinion
Of the Times, it can scarcely be asserted that the Prussian
alvaned 114 been arrested or diverted. The actual in-
vestment of the, eapital may have been delayed; but
hitherto there has been no evidence of the Prussians' in-
tention to do more than march upon Paris.

CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED MURDER.

Yesterday, at the Southwark Police-court, George Mar-
tin Bailey, aged 46, who described himself as a labourer,
living at 269, Kent-street, Borough, and who has lost his
left arm, was charged before Mr. Benson with feloniously
cutting and wounding Geo. Meyers by striking him with a
knife in the abdomen, with intent to murder him, at Violet-
place, Dover-road, Borough. The injured man was
stabbed on Saturday night, and in consequence of the
surgeons .of Guy's Hospital stating that he might die very
suddenly, Mr. i3essoii, in company with Mr. Hankinson,
the office-keeper, proceeded on Sunday night to the
hospital, where the depositions of the sufferer were taken.
After being sworn, he said—My name is George
Meyers, and I live at 3, Violet-place, Dover-road,
Borough. lam a porter in the Borough Market. Last
night, about lialf-past nine, I was at my house, when
Emma James, a woman I am living with, ran up to me.
She warned to have had a blow in the face. The landlady
called out, " Mr. Meyers, you are wanted." I then went
down stairs to the front deor, and saw the prisoner there.
Ho said, " I want a ticket of a shirt." I said, She has
not got one ; if you don't go away I shall give you a
ticket." lie said, " Will you ?" and I said, "Yes, I
shall." I ran upstairs, put my waistcoat on, and when
I got down stairs I gave him a punch on the side of the
head. I said, " Now go, or I will lock you up." Immo-
reediately I said that he put his hand into the breast pocket
of his coat. He then came close up to me, and gave me
a plunge in the stomach. I felt that I was stabbed,
and my entrails came out. He made no indication of
opening a knife beforehand. It had happened in a mo-
ment, and I put my hand to the wound. I walked a
hundred yards to look after a policeman, and I then went
upstairs and lay down. I did not see what became of the
prisoner. Some constables came up and took me to the
hospital on a stretcher. Some one stood by when the pri-
soner stabbed me, but no one was near enough to stab me.
I have lived with Emma James about six months. The
prisoner has quarrelled with me about it, and I have heard
him say he would have his revenge." After corroborative
testimony, including that of Emma James, who stated
that she had lived with prisoner as his wife, and left
him on account of his brutality. Mr. Ashby, one of the
surgeons of Guy's Hospital, said the injured man was in
a very precarious condition, and no hopes were enter-
tained of his recovery. The prisoner, who seemed to feel
his position acutely, was then remanded.

A man named May has been committed for trial at
Waterford, for stabbing a person named Daly, with whom
he had a dispute.

OUR LITTLE WARS.

The select committee of the House of Commons
found, in examining the consular charges of 1868-9,
that there was an item of £1,741 for incidental ex-

peuses in West Africa. It was stated that we have
had a consulate at Lukoja, a town in the territory of
King Massaha. The British Consul's duties were
left very much to his own discretion. Mr. Macleod
held a sort of double vice-royalty, as he depended on
King Massaha for protection against the pirates who
inrest the Niger, and the British subjects considered
bin her Majesty's representative. Mr. Macleod got
into serious difficulties with the pirate chiefs on
account of his having rescued the Bishop of the
Niger, who had been kidnapped by one of them. He
was compelled to erect batteries and stand a regular
siege. The expenses of this undertaking amounted
.to £1,741. The bill when it arrived at the Foreign
Office was refused, but when Mr. Macleod's graphic
account of the siege came the Government felt that
under the circumstances they had no choice but to
comply with the demand. They paid the bill and
abolished the consulate at Lukoja.

LORD WILLOUGHBY D'ERESBY.

Lord Willoughby d'Eresby, the Hereditary Grand
Chamberlain of England, died at Richmond on
Saturday. He was in his forty-ninth year, and the
title becomes;extinct, as he leaves no legitimate issue.
The peerage of Willoughby. d'Eresby is one of the
oldest in the Kingdom. The first Baron was sum-
moned to Parliament by writ in 1313, in the seventh
year of Edward the second. In 1779 the barony fell
into abeyance and the hereditary Lord Grand Chain-
berlainship became vested in the sisters of the Duke
of Ancaster. Georgiana married Lord Cholmondeley
carrying the hereditary Grand Chamberlainship into
the Cholrnondeley family, and the abeyance was de-
termined in •1780 in favour of Priscilla, who married
Peter Burrell, first Baron Gwydir. The title has
again fallen into abeyance. Lord Willoughby was
a Conservative, but seldom took an active part in
politics. Of late his name has been prominently
brought before the public in connection with an action
brought against him by the Countess d'Alteyr ac.

IHE MARQUIS OF HERTFORD'S WILL.

The late Lord Hertford (according to the Paris corres-
pondent of the Telegraph) leaves to his successor, General
Seymour, but £20,000 a year. The rest of his large
property, amounting to £60,000 a year, has been be-
queathed to his natural son, who is commonly known in
Paris as " Monsieur Richard," but who is called by
Englishmen "Mr. Wallace." It is said that another will
left a considerable legacy to Sir Hamilton Seymour, and
that a lawsuit between him and " Monsieur Richard" is
not improbable.

As the daily Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and other

question arises whether any precautions have bbeil sug-

besieged. IncalCulable mercantile inconvenience might
arise in the event of any of the sertices being interrupted

Berger Spence and Co.'s Weekly Report says :—" There
has been little real improvement in the state of the che-
mical trade during the week which has just elapsed. Ad-
vices coming to hand from various quarters indicate that
there is likelihood of a continued demand for articles ne-
cessary for the preparation of home products ; and this
tendency, which is very uniform, keeps up prices and
checks speculation, manufacturers being unwilling, in the
face of present events, to incur any risk by running up
heavy stocks. In minerals a shade less business has been
transacted, but Hens continue to beS well stistaihbd. A
limited business is still being done in metals, but
during the past week a slight improvement has
taken place in some descriptions. Scotch pig iron
continues in fair demand, at improving prices.
Cleveland is rather easier. In copper more steadiness is
observable. The other metals remain at almost un-
changed prices.
