SWTNDLED OUT OF £40,000.

•
Some particularS have been gleaned in reference to the
case in which a Preston family have been swindled out
of 240,000. Mr. Cotterill, the defaulter, was a member
of the firm of Messrs. Cotterill and Sons, formerly connected
with Liverpool, and was executor and trustee under the
marriage settlement between Mr. henry Newsham Pedder
and his present.wife, who was formerly a Miss Griseclale,
of Liverpol. Another trustee under the settlement died
about eighteen months ago, and since that time- Mr.
Cotterill has sytematically called in all the securities for
the 240,000 belonging to Mrs. Pedder, without her know-
ledge or consent, and has used it for his own purposes.
It is said that his moral delinquencies are of no slight
character, and rumour assigns him two residences and two
separate families in different parts of London. lle has
a,130 speculated a good deal in various ways, and his defal-
cations amount altogether to upwards of 100,000. A week
or two before his flight he bad received the sum of
15,000 from another client for the purpose of lending it
upon mortgage, but he had not even attempted to do
this, and the presumption is that he has used it to take
him to other climes and to support him in his adventures.
Tile senior member of the firm is dead, and a brother to the
delinquent is the only one now left ; he declares that he had
no knowledge whatever of the swindler's transactions, and
that he was as much surprised as anyone to bear of his flight.
The hardship upon Mr. and Mrs. redder is very great for
the whole of their income and source of income have been
taken, nothing being left them but the house they live in
and the furniture. &c., it contains. —Preston Herald.

CHARING-CROSS

Two new pieces were produced at this house last
night, one a three act comedy entitled 4, The 'Twin
S'sters." The piece was very successful. Miss
Fowler's dresses are very rich ; and the Chamouni
scene very prettty. At the close the principal per-
formers were called before the curtain ; and a
similar compliment was paid to Miss Emma Schiff,
the authoress. The performances concluded with the
burlesque of " Won," which has now been running
some time.

GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION.

Mr. and Mrs. German Reed's entertainment drew
numerous visitors both in the afternoon and evening.
It deserves all the support it receives, for it is varied
and pleasing. The musical legend, " Ages Ago,"
and " Beggar My Neighbour," need no eulogy now.
Nothing could be conceived more thoroughly artistic
than the impersonation of the Old Scotch Nurse by
Mrs. German Reed, while Mr. German Reed is seen
to the greatest .advantage in the dignified Sir
Ebenezer Tare. All those who during the holiday
time may pay a visit to the Gallery of Illustration
will certainly be highly pleased.

MADAME TTJSSAUD'S.
There is always something new to be seen at this

are portrait models of the notorious Tropmann and

stituting the exhibition were thickly crowded with
sightseers yesterday.

QUEEN'S.

,"Twixt Axe and Crown " still holds its place, a
conclusive proof of its attractiveness, not merely to
the cultivated classes, but also to the average play-
goer. Mrs. RousbY's tender, graceful, and refined
portrayal of the Princess Elizabeth, at once so
girlish and impulsive, so womanly and dignified ; the
bustling episode of Ashridge and Hatfield ; the nale
historical scene in the Tower, called forth the. ap-
plause of a very crowded house. " 'Twixt Axe and
Crown " has still a long career before it.

E PEA L.

The repeal agitation in Ireland- has revived under
the influence of those gentlemen, of whom Mr.
Harman King- is a specimen, who think it possible
tJ combine Conservatism and Nationalism. This
notion that the Irish Conservatives will give the
Repealers at least - indirect help, is bringing
the old leaders to the front again. Mr.
O'Neill Daunt writes a letter to reassure Con3erva-
tive-Protestants that they have nothing to fear in case
a national form of Government be established.
" Your fears -of the obliteration of Protestantism in
the event of Repeal are balanced by fears, equally
groundless, which some Catholics have really
entertained, that a restored Irish Parliament would
restore Orange ascendancy." Whilst Irishmen are
thus divided, continues • Mr. Daunt, England is
enabled easily 'to maintain her ascendancy. The
Marchioness of Queensberry, too, has put a shoulder
to the wheel. She follows up her practical sympathy
for Fenian prisoners by a letter -to the Limerick
Chronicle, advocating an alliance of Catholics and
Protestants in order to secure the Repeal of the
Union, -

STRAND.

At this theatre the new burlesque, "Sir George
and a Dragon, with the original bull-fight, and the
humours of Mr. David Jame; would alone probably
have sufficed to attract a full holiday audience, but
the performances also included the comedietta of
Widows' Weeds," and the farce entitled " A
Fish out of Water." The little theatre was crowded.

HOLBORN.
This theatre re-opened last evening under the
management of Mr. C. T. Burleigh. The most im-
portant piece performed was a four-act drama from
the pen of Mr. George Roberts, entitled " Behind the
Curtain." It deals, as might be inferred, almost
exclusively with the life, both public and private, of
actors and actresses, and in fact of almost every other
class in any way connected with the stage, and met
with great success. The scene of the burning theatre
is of course the culminating point of the play. The
last scene, representing Garden-court in the Temple,
by moonlight, with the fountain playing, was de-
servedly applauded. The dramatis persona of the
piece are very numerous, and included Mr. Cowper,
Mr. Billington, Mr. Atkins, and Mr. M'lntyre ;
Miss Desbough and Miss Millie De Vere. The per-
formances commenced with a new farce, entitled
" The Chamber of Horrors," and terminated with
the well-known farce, " The Happiest Day of My
Life."

EGYPTIAN RILL.

Mr. Woodin, one of the earliest, and still the most
popular, of that class of entertainers who in their
own person, by the aid of Protean changes of voice,
manner, dress, and facial expression, sustain the
whole business of their performances, repeated last
night, before a crowded audience, his carpet bag and
sketch book entertainment. These will be repeated
every evening this week except Saturday, when, ac-
cording to custom, an afternoon performance, begin-
ning at three, will be substituted. Many new points
and various drolleries have been added by the enter-
tainer, and the new and beautiful scenery by Mr.
O'Connor adds greatly to the interest of the per-
formance.

Lady Mordaunt is under the care and treatment
of Dr. Wynter, at Chiswick.
DEATH OF LORD HENEIIICER.—The death is an-
nounced this morning of Lord Henniker, in the peerage of
Ireland, and Baron Bartismere, in the peerage of the United
Kingdom. His lordship, who was the fourth Irish Baron,
was born on the 3rd of February, 1801.

FIRE IN HOLBORN.—This (Tuesday) morning
about a quarter before four o'clock, a fire of a vary alarming
character happened in the extensive premises belonging to
Mr. W. Blin, passe-partout manufacturer, No. 7, Holborn-
bars, City, formerly the Blue Posts posting house. The
flames commenced in the ground floor, but from what cause

is unknown.
Mr. W. J. Prowse, well known in the world of
letters, died at Nice on Sunday. He had long been in
feeble health. Mr. Browse was a contributor to many of
the serials of the day, especially Fun. He was also on the
literary staff of the London Daily Telegraph.
Yes' erday a mat&i at cricket between 11 pen-
sioners with one arm against 11 pensioners with one leg
took place at the Duke of Edinburgh Cricket Ground,
Brixton. The comparative novelty of the game attracted
large concourse of spectators. Much amusement was afforded
by the mishaps and downfalls of the players. The game
was decided iu favour of the one-legged men by 28 runs.

THE Fri ING OF A..IIING IN A COW'S STOMACH.

—The Glasgow Heruld a week since alluded to the finding
of a gold wedding ring in a cow's stomach. The ring has
since been claimed by Mrs. James, Mather, Eaglesham,
who five years since missed her ring ono day after she had
been feeding the chaffer, a machine for preparing
hay and straw for the boiler. It is supposed the
cow had swallowed the ring about that time, and that
during the five years following it remained in the animare

BAB 0 0 KE SHUB CIIIINDER SEN.

The second appearance of the distinguished
Hindoo preacher, Baboo Keshub Chunder
Sen, in a Unitarian Chapel, sets at rest
any doubt that might have been felt as to the
peculiar doctrine which he professes. In Finsbury
Unitarian Chapel a crowded congregation listened to
a sermon delivered in good English—very much
better than the majority of those who undertake the
duty of weekly admonition in religious matters. There
was, says the Pall Mall Gazette, a slight trace, but
nothing more, of foreign accent. Thellindoo spoke with
perfecefluency, with complete grammatical accuracy,
and apparently without even the use of a note. His
appearance is striking, and has a certain genial dignity
in harmony with the simplicity of his dress, and
the absence of any forced gesticulation. His features
are well cut, and combine a certain sweetness with
an expression of marked decision. Altogether, he is
a man to whom it is impossible to listen without
respect and interest, though it may be that, in
preaching to an audience where he could feel
himself more at home, he might venture
a little farther into the regions of rho-
tonic. The sermon was of extreme simpli-
city, and devoted to setting forth a doctrine
which certainly did not profess to be novel or
startling. In short, he spoke with much quiet
fervour upon the goodness and mercy of God. The
parable of "The Prodigal Son" was frequently quoted
and the example of our Lord was noticed reverently acid
respectfully, though not of course with any impres-
sion of a belief in its sacred character. In fact the
sermon was just what we might expect to hear from
Mr. Martineau or from any able Unitarian preacher.

A COUNTY 3IAGISTRATE ON THE POLICE.

"A county magistrate" of twenty years standing
in a letter to the Daily Telegraph, gives his opinion
on Cie present system of police existing in the metro-
polis. He says in reference to recent acts of violence
on the part of the police that the force as established
by Sir Robert Peel for civil purposes_ has been
gradually transformed in forty years into that most
mischievous of all things, a semi-military force. Yet
those men are not trained for any length of
time before they are entrusted with the for-
midable weapon used with such illjudg-
ment of late. Neither are they, he states,
necessarily for any length of time in the police. One
division, a few years back, lost 30 per cent, of its
members in one year. In fact, says the writer,
this huge force is kept up and enlarged by suc-
cessive Home Secretaries, and the rate-
payers in the Home Counties, all now with
au efficient police of their own, are made to bear
three times the cost they would otherwise incur.
This he submits is clone in order to save trouble and
to avoid that careful revision of the police arrange-
ments of the Metropolis, which, by withdrawing the
useless home patrol, and the mass of needless con-
stables from the rural districts fifteen or sixteen miles
from town, and concentrating them in London
and it suburbs would soon produce a more
satisfactory state of things.

11,IARLBOROITGH-STREET.

Stephen Franklin, a young man, residing at No. 8,
Richmond-place, Grove-road, St. John's -wood, was
charged, before Mr.Tyrwhitt, with dressing in female
attire, and behaving in a disorderly manner. The
prisoner wore a bat with a yellow feather, a drab
jacket, and blue skirt. Constable 47 C said last
night he saw the defendant in Regent-street con-
ducting himself in a highly improper manner, and on
the defendant becoming aware that he was being
watched he jumped into a cab, but he was taken into
custody. The defendant said he had been to a ball
at Highbury Barn, sad was merely having a lark.
The magistrate, after cautioning the defendant, dis-
charged him, at the same time telling him that
a repetition of such conduct would ensure imprison-
ment.

Elizabeth Davies, a vicious girl of 17, was brought
berore Mr. Lushington charged with robbing children
of linen in the public streets. The prisoner is one of
those hardened wretches who turn up occasionally
among our criminals and plunder the helpless. Jas.
Howlett, a detective sergeant of the K division, raid
there were 50 cases ag dust the prison-r. He put
forward one, and asked for a remand. Frances
Sloman, a girl about eight years of age, stated that
she was sent by her mother to a mangling woman for
a bundle of linen, and was returning with it when
the prisoner accosted her and took from it a sheet,
dress, and chemise, and ran away with them. A
pawnbroker produced the property which the prisoner
pawned. Remanded accordingly.

PROTECTION OF INVENTIONS.

The bill now before Parliament for the "Protection
of Inventions," though unusually short, contains
many important provisions. By the new Act neither
the exhibition of any invention at any international
exhibition, nor its publication during the period of hold-
ing the same, is to prejudice the right of the exhibitor
within six months from the opening of such exhibition
from leaving at the offices of the commissioners a
petition for the grant of letters patent. Another clause
provides that the exhibition of designs shall not
interfere with the right of registration. The Act
applies to international exhibitions in general.

T'IE REPRESENTATION OF BRISTOL.

At a meeting of Conservatives held at Bristol, on
Saturday, it was resolved to take no action until the seat
has been formally declared vacant. Mr. Odger arrived in
Bristol on Saturday, and at night addressed his friends.
He did not say he would stand in so many words, but it
is thought from the tone of his remarks that he means to
go to the poll. He stated that several meetings of his
party would be held this week.

SUDDEN DEATH OF A LATE QUEEN'S
CHAPLAIN.

Between Eve and six o'clock on Saturday afternoon the
Rev. Thomas Protheroe, brother of the Rev. George
Protheroe, rector of Whippingham and one of her
Maje sty's chaplains, was found dead in his park at Malpas,
a few miles from Newport, Monmouthshire. The
deceased was formerly one of the Queen's chaplains, and
was highly esteemed by her Majesty. His brother, the
Rev. George Protheroe, succeeded him in the office.
Death is supposed to have resulted from apoplexy.

THE COUNTESS OF DERWENTWATER.

A sale of stock seized by the Lords of the Admiralty
at Newlands West Farm took place on Saturday. The
tenant, Mr. Brewis, had offered the rent to Mr. Grey,
but only on condition that he would protect him from any
aggression by the Countess of Derwentw ater. Mr. Grey
refused to give such guarantee, and Mr. Brewis deposited
the money in the bank. During the sale the Countess
drove up and informed the auctioneer that she expected
the proceeds of the sale. The seizure was for £240, one
year's rent, due in May last.

THE QUEEN AND THE ARMY.

Experience will soon tell us (says the Telegraph) how
the new army arrangements will work ; but, as it seems
us, there remains one addition which is wanted to crown
the edifice, and this, no doubt, is but a question of
time. If the General Commanding-in-Chief be simply
head of the staff, why should his appointment en-
dure for any longer period than that of other
staff officers, even of the highest rank? The
public service would have everything to gain by the
change from time to time of the chief officer. There
would be an end of military cliques, and of much that is
objectionable under the system of a permanent chief.
Besides, the Secretary of State, who is changed from
time under the political affairs, would find a much more
manageable subordinate in an officer whose appointment
could last only for five years. In the present
position of the question, we simply offer this as a sugges-
tion to Mr. Cardwell, but it is a suggestion worthy of con
sideration. Before dismissing the subject from notice, we
are bound to say that here is another instance—if another
were wanted—to prove how well Queen Victoria under-
stands her true position as a Constitutional Sovereign of
these realms. It could scarcely have been without a little
misgiving that our Queen could have brought herself to
perform this most wise and necessary act. It must, to a
royal personage, have been a sharp breaking-off with the
history of days gone by, to place the army definitively in
theory, as it has long been in fact, under the authority of
Parliament. This is not, however, the first instance, by a
great many in which Queen Victoria has shown that she
reckons her own private feelings as nothing when the
welfare of the Empire and the happiness of her subjects
are at stake.

to the great detriment of the lumber rafts.

The following news appeared in our First Edition pub•
ished at Eight o'clock this morning:—]
(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
PRINCE ARTHUR AT
MONTREAL.

Prince Arthur was on Saturday invested at Mon-
treal with the order of St. Michael and St. George.
There was a very, brilliant gathering, most of the
leading men of the Dominion being present, and a
large number of ladies. The Prince was invested
by the Governor-General.

THE FIRE AT CONSTANTINOPLE

It seems impossible to ascertain the number of
dead bodies which have been found at Constanti-
nople. The various accounts state 104, 953, 1,300,
and 300. The number of funerals which have taken
place in the cemeteries is 122. These do not include
Jews or Mahometans. Great care has been displayed
by the Turkish authorities. All patties have joined
in the subscriptions, to the sufferers, and the Chris-
tians have been received in nearly a thousand houses
in the Turkish quarters.

THE ITALIANS IN AUSTRIA.
According to the A'ew Free Press of Saturday the
Austrian authorities at Pola have received notice of
an Italian raid into Istria. A body of volunteers was
expected to disembark, but an Austrian war vessel
is cruising along the coast to prevent them.

MARSHAL PRIM AND THE
SPANISH CROWN.

On Saturday Marshal Prim made his long-looked-
for statement in the Cortes on the question of a King
for Spain. He said he had treated with four candi-
dates successively, but had failed in every case. He
hoped that, he might find one within the next three
months, but that hope had no connection
with the Prince of Asturias, for he would
never support the restoration of the Bour-
bons, but would uphold liberty with energy.
As for the relations between the Spanish Govern-
ment and Portugal, the only end sought was the
establishment of a monarchical confederatian of the
two countries, which should preserve the national
autonomy of both undisturbed. There was no need
to fear any disorder during the interreguutn. Senor
Rios Rosas said he hoped a❑ end would be shortly
put to the existing interreguutn ; but no resolution
was come to on the subject, and the Cortes ad-
journed.

(CENTRAL PRESS TELEGRAMS.)
THE LATE BOAT ACCIDENT AT RYDE.

At a little before eight o'clock this morning, while
searching for the bodies of the young men drowned at
Ryde on Friday night through the capsizing of a boat, the
boat was hooked by the drags, and on it being raised the
body of the young man Clark was found clinging to the
boat. The boatmen think they succeeded in hooking a
second body ; but that the clothes broke away, causing
them to lose the body. They are now actively engaged in
the search.

RELEASE OF THE CUBAN PRIVATEER
HORNET.

NEW YORK, June 13th, 1870.

The President of the United States has ordered the
release of the Cuban privateer " Hornet," that was seized
last year at Wilmington. The owner gave bonds, to the
amount of 50,000 dols., that he would not sail against
Spain.

k PETROLEUM LOCOMOTIVE.

Those in whose minds a memory of the fearful
catastrophe at Abergele and its causes is yet vivid
will be astonished to find that petroleum has been
applied to railway locomotion in France. A loco-
motive has been invented by M. Dreudonn6 which
draws a train at the rate of fifty miles an hour. It
carries 2,000 litres of oil in the tender,
a hand-pump forcing the oil into a smaller
reservoir near the boiler.. The process of
lighting the oil is said to be neither difficult nor
dangerous, owing to its being kept in compart
ments, a small quantity only being lighted at one
time, then another division, and so on till the whole
furnace is alight. This engine consumes its own
smoke perfectly. It is said to be extremely easy to
drive, the driving apparatus being very simple.

ANOTHER PORTRAIT IN 44 LOTHAIR."

Among the portraits which Mr. Disraeli has
painted for the pleasure of his friends, and the grief
of his opponents, the readers of " Lothair " will
remember that of the Anglican bishop. People
who know, believe that they recognise in this
character the features of a well-known digni"
tary, celebrated for his unobtrusiveness as well
as his power of sarcasm, the latter being very
frequently displayed in the House of Lords. The
story goes that his grace having heard that he figured
in " Lothair," inquired of a friend what kind of per-
son Mr. Disraeli had presented to his readers
in the character of the bishop. The friend
replied that he was represented as a nine
of most suave Manners, large knowledge
of the world, and as being a great favourite with the
ladies. "Oh !" said the interlocutor, " then that
must be meant for the Archbishop of York." Will
the author of "The Outlines of the Laws or
Thought" send a challenge to Mr. Disraeli, or' will
he " cut " his right reverend brother ?

FENIAN PRISONERS INQUIRY COMMISSION.

Mr. Butt has received a reply from the Secretary
of the Fenian Prisoners Inquiry Commission in
answer to his proposal that he should represent the
Fenian prisoners during the investigation that is
about to take place. The secretary says that the
range of the inquiry cannot be extended, and that
the commissioners therefore decline to permit any
person on behalf of the friends of the prisoners to be
present during the examinations. He adds that
the commissioners are willing to receive any state-
ment in writing, and that the prisoners have been
allowed to prepare a statement. This reply is not
likely to prove a satisfactory one, for Mr. Butt de-
clared that the Inquiry would not be regarded as a
conclusive one in Ireland unless the friends and rela-
tives of the prisoners were represented on the occa-

'ion.

THE ARMY AND MILITIA.

The Army and Navy Gazette prints a scheme for
aczny mug militia, which
has been prepared by an experienced officer, wh°
apprehends unsatisfactory results from the recent
reduction of the Line regiments to skeleton bat-
talions 'without reserves. It is recommended that
every regiment should consist of two battalions,
the first battalion to be the Line regiment, the
second battalion to be the militia battalion of the
regiment. When at home, the first battalion should
be quartered at the country head - quarter,
the county town barracks, and when abroad its
place should be taken invariably by the depot of the
regiment. When the militia battalion is out for
training, the two battalions might be drilled together,
and the bonds tightened between the two,
and after each training the 2nd battalion
should volunteer some of the number of men required
by the Ist battalion to complete. One lieutenancy
should also be given to the most promising young
officer of the 2d battalion at the end of the training.
The adjutants and sergeants should be selected from
the Ist battalion, and the field officers (when possible)
from officers who have served in the regiment. The
honorary colonel might be excepted. In some cases
two or three militia battalions might be attached AS
2d, 3d, and 4th battalions, to a battalion of the
Line, to suit localities or nationalities. To d°
away with jealousy, exchanges should be permitted
among the officers, and in a few years, it is believit
the Line would look upon the Militia as a part °
their regiment. The dress should lie the same, wit',
some distinctive mark. The Militia battalion should
not carry the regimental colour. The Queen's colour
alone would be sufficient, and it would impress 111)°'1,,
the men that the Ist, or war battalion, represent
the county regiment, and they should carry t"
county badges on their regimental colour.

THE WEST INDIA AND PANAMA
TELEGRAPH.

The New York Herald of May 31st publishes letters

from the West Indies announcing that Sir Charles Bright
and officers had arrived at Kingston, Jamaica, to make

reparatory arrangements for the laying of
to cables which are to unite the West
idia islands and the South American Continent.

with the United States and Europe. British operators
and signal men were expected at Kingston, where a large
portion of the cable had arrived on the 10th of May.
Great preparations are being made by the press for the
supply of telegrams. One proprietor proposes that in
order to have telegraphic intelligence his subscribers must
add five dollars to their subscriptions. The British
steamer Suffold, which was expected with a por-
tion of the cable on board, was to remain on
that station to visit the cables when neces-
sary. Her head-quarters will be at Kingston.
Sir Charles subsequently left Kingston for St. Thomas,
where he was awaiting the arrival of the Dacio, respecting
whose fate such sinister rumours have been set afloat. It
is anticipated that the telegraph line will be in working
order by August. Other means of communication
are being pushed forward in the West Indies.
The Kingston correspondent says :—" It is cur-
rently reported that the Pacific Mail Steam-
hip Company are willing to call at this port going to and
returning from Aspinwall, if the Government will pay
a subsidy of £6,000 towards the expense. It is doubt-
ful if the proposition be accepted. It is stated
that the Foreign Office in London will take the
£2,000 subsidy from the Spanish company carrying
the British mails between St. Thomas, Santiago de Cuba,
and Habana and give it to the Royal Mail Company, if
they will put on a steamer from Jamaica to Santiago de
Cuba and Habana, and thence to New York in time to
connect with the British mail packet going to Europe, and
to this will be added the subsidy contemplated by his
Excellency Sir John Peter Grant, governor of this island,
for the encouragement of the fruit trade and reduction in
price of provisions.

FATAL COLLIERY ACCIDENT.

At two o'clock this morning a serious colliery explosion
took place in Birchill Pit, Hasland, near Chesterfield, be-
longing to Messrs. Barnes. It appears that two men
named William Bradley and William Parsons were taking
down some clay in a heading when the gas came upon
upon them, exploded, and burnt them frightfully. Bradley
was killed, leaving a wife and four children. Parsons
was taken to the hospital, where he is now lying in a very
dangerous state and not expected to recover. The de-
ceased man and Parsons were working with a naked Ugh t
and a safety lamp.
