ROBBING A CRIMEAN HERO,—Henry Cannock, a
respectable•looking young man, described on the charge.
sheet as third
,steward on board the Seine, belonging to
the General Steam Navigation Company, was brought
before Mr, Combe, charged with stealing a 51. Bank of
England note, and two sovereigns, from the person of
George Blaney, a private in the 42d Regiment of Foot,
under the following circumstances :

The prosecutor, a brawny-looking Scotcbman, wear-
ing on his left breast a medal with four clasps, stated
that he had recently arrived at Dover, with his regi-
ment, from the Crimea, where •he bad undergone great
hardships and priv.ations during the whole of the war.
On Monday he obtained leave of absence from his com-
manding officer to go and see his friends in Scotland,
and he received a a note and three sovereigns from the
Paymaster-Serjeant, to pay his expenses. He changed
- one of the sovereigntrat Dover, and deposited the other '
two and the note in his side pocket. On the arrival of
the train at London-bridge he foolishly entered a public-
, house, and drank beer and spirits, but he recollected
then that the note and gold were safe. Some time after
that he remembered being with the prisoner drinking
ale, and after that he missed his money, and the
prisoner was locked up for robbing him. Witness had
taken the precaution to take off his medal and clasps
and hide them, so that they were not stolen.
An old woman, who kept a stall near London-bridge,
said that she saw the prisoner and the soldiers come out
of a public house. The soldier then felt in his pocket,
and as the prisoner was leaving him he said that he
had been robbed. Witness pointed out the prisoner to
the constable, and he was stopped and given into custody.
In answer to the charge, the prisoner said be was third
steward on board -the General Steam Navigation Com-
pany's steamer Seine, running between Ramsgate, Mar-
gate, and London, and he had just left her when he saw
the prosecutor lying on the steps leading to St. Saviour's
Church. He raised him up, and took him to a public-
house and treated him with some ale, as he had been in
the Crimea himself. As they were leaving the house
the soldier said he was robbed, and he was given into
custody. He could assure his worship that he was
innocent.

Mr. Combe remanded the prisoner, and accopted bai
for his appearance on a future d❑y,

Sir,--7-Thcse of your readers interested in gold mines
must have marked the progress of the Anglo Californian
Company, and must be surprised to now find that the
liabilities of the company, in England, have increased
to 11,0001., and that to induce the shAreholders to retire
from this liability, one of the directors, at a special
meeting of the shareholders held on the let instant,
moved:—

" That the encumbered position of that company does
not warrant the shareholders in carryin it on ; and re-
solved that the resolution of the meeting held on the 16th
day of July last be not confirmed ; and resolved that the
directors be offered the property of the company upon the
terms of their agreeing to take upon themselves all the
liabilities of the company in England and California, and
that the whole assets and property of the company be at
the absolute and unfettered disposal of the directors, and
be made over to them, with immediate possession, in Ca.
Hernia, they indemnifying the shareholders against all
past and future liabilities."

Dramatic Songs. By Edward F. Fitzwilliam.
D'Alinaine and Co., Soho-square.
Mr. Fitzwilliam has already given to the musical
public numerous compositions of considerable merit,
and the twenty-six songs now before us fully sus-
tain his reputation. They comprise a charming
variety for bass, tenor, contralto, and soprano-
voices—embodying the subjects of love, war, pity,
hunting, and drinking. "Gluggity Ging" is an
excellent, convivial lyric, and "Gude nicht and joy
be wi' ye a'" smacks freshly of racy Northern me-
lody. " The Bells," written by the gifted but
luckless Edgar Allan Poe, is a very clever produc-
tion, with a rine accompaniment ; vbut there are so
many admirable songs in the volume that He
scarcely know which to mention as the best.
We are glad to see that the talentecl.composer
such good taste in the selection of ins
words. The names of Hood, Berange'r, Coleridge,
Mrs. Ilenans, and others equally great, are suffi-
cient warran t for the quality of the poetry. Someone
has :.aing of "music wedded to immortal verse,"
.but, if we uioy judge by most of our modern bal-
lads, the " banns are forbidden" now touching any
such union. We congratulate Mr. Fitzwilliam on
the healthy and vigorous character of the themes
chosen by him, and heartily wish that other com-
posers may follow his example,

DISCOVERY OF A GANG OP FORGERS.—Charles
ThoinpoU, who has been recantly tried and acqiiitted on
a charge of passing a forged Bank‘ of England note,
Augustus Fristag, and Louis Bohm, all Germans, were
brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with forging notes
purporting to be those of the Bank of England, and
with having in their possession a steel plate and engray.
log, wood cut, and implements for manufacturing forged
notes.

The Bank of England Solicitor prosecuted, and Mr,
L. Strauss acted as interpreter.

The prisoners Fristag and Bohm have been recently
discharged from the British German Legion, and received
18/. each, and were the comrades of a German named
John Dumont, who was committed from this court a
fortnight since for passing a forged Bank of England
note at the shop of Mr. Wilson, boot and shoe maker,
in Whitechapel, and the accused party, who is in
Newgate awaiting his trial, had been discharged from
the Legion a few days before he was taken into custody.
It appeared from the evidence that the prisoners had
recently hired the house, No. 42, Upper Bern ers-street,
Commercial-road East, and yesterday (Tuesday) after-
noon, at half-past four o'clock, three officers' of
the City of London police force, named Spittle, Hug-
gett,• and Knight, detectives, repaired to the house
in Berners-street, where the prisoners were at work
preparing forged notes intended for circulation.
Huggett jumped in at the window while Spittle
and Knight broke open the front door, and
discovered Thompson and Fristag in the act of
"just going to press" with forged notes. A steel
plate, with a perfect representation of a 51. Bank of
England note engraved upon it, was on the press, and
26 papers with the water mark " Bank of England "
and " Five " inscribed thereon were on a table close
by. There was a slab on which the plate was to.be
" inked," bottles of ink, and all necessary apparatus and
materials for forging Bank of England notes, on a large
scale, in the room in which the prisoners Were. Thomp-
son and Fristag were at work on the press, and Bohm
was lying on a bed, and said he_ Was led into it by
Thompson.

The •fficers produced the steel engraving of a 51. note,
mould for the water-mark, proofs of forged notes, pre-
pared tissue paper, and other materials.

Mr. Strauss having interpreted the evidence 'to the
prisoners, they were remanded for a week.

The investigation created great interest, and, the court
was crowded to excess.

He explained the principles upon which the cool summers
and mild winters of South Devon and Cornwall are to be
accounted for—namely, the equable temperature of the sea
with which the peninsula is surrounded. He had observed
the surface water of Torbay to be as much as 21 degrees
above the minimum, temperature of the air in winter, and
13 degrees below the maximum, in summer. He also ac-
counted for the equable hygrometrical condition of the air
by the same cause—the temperature of the sea being fre-
quently above the dew point in winter and below it in
summer. He reviewed the inaccuracies in several medical
publications, which had raised a prejudice against South
Devon as a summer residence as being too relaxing, while
the exact contrary is shown by these observations. He ex-
hibited a set of his newly invented meteorological instru•
meats for obtaining all the really important elements of
climate by one daily, weekly, or monthly observation,

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.
The Emperor yesterday gave a private audience
to Prince Adalbert of Bavaria at the Palace of St.
Cloud. The Prince had had the honour of being
received by the Empress previously to the return
of his Majesty.
A Council of Ministers, at which the Emperor
presided, was held yesterday morning at St.
Cloud.

Marshal Vaillant, as toe um, tenens for the Minis-
ter of Public Worship, has addressed a circular to
the different archbishops and bishops, calling their
attention to the fact that the present year has been
memorable for the birth of a Prince Imperial at the
moment of the signature of a glorious peace, and
requesting them to order that a Te Deum shall be
sung in all the churches of their respective dioceses
on the 15th inst., the fete day of the Emperor, as
a mark of gratitude to Providence for those bless-
ings.
The Moniteur contains a decree nominating the
Presidents, Vice-Presidenta, and Secretaries of the
Councils-General of the departments for the session
of 1856.

"It appears certain," says a Paris letter in the
Emancipation, of Brussels, " that it is Count Wa-
lewski and Marshal Duke Pelissier who are charged
with the task of coming to a definite arrangement
on the subject of the medals which Turkey is de-
sirous of conferring on the French troops. It was
at first in contemplation to decorate all the soldiers
who have taken part in the Crimean campaign.
The Emperor did not give his sanction to this idea,
and from modification to modification it has at
length been decided that the only soldiers who are
to receive the Turkish medal are the wounded and
the invalided."

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13, 1856.

The Machiavellian principle, "Divide et im-
pera,"—one that, indeed, has been recognised by
Despots from the earliest times of kingcraft—ap-
pears to be thoroughly understood and acted on
by Austria. In Italy she maintains her position
by arraying Princes and Peoples, the Goiernors
and the Governed, on opposite sides, and sowing
dissension and ill-will between them. Her. object
in thus rendering the rulers unpopular is to in-
duce them to believe that their only security
against the insubordination of their subjects is to
be found in Austrian intervention. This opinion,
sedulously cultivated, leads to the toleration of
Austrian garrisons and the exercise of military
law in their States. The People are naturally dis-
gusted ; and the indignation excited against the
tyrannical and insolent brutality of the Austrian
troops is directed against the nominal Princes
who consent to the degrading and expensive occu-
pation.

Austria well knows the slender hold which
she possesses on Lombardy, and the anxiety En-
tertained by ',the inhabitants of that beautiful
but unhappy land to shake off the hateful
yoke. If surrounded by free and inde-
pendent States, the Austrian supremacy could
scarcely be maintained a single week. But by her
favourite system of military occupation, and re-
ducing the neighbouring Princes to mere puppets
in her hands, she has numerous ofarrisons on
every side, which she can let loose on the devoted
Lombards, in the event of their in:tking any effort
to achieve their independence.

Under such eircumstanws, it is unneces;:-.ry to
say with wlat intense and concentrated hatred
she detests Sardinia. The appearance of a really •
.
constitutional Government casts Lcit but
powerful censure on the despotic system main_
tithed by herself and her puny ' The re-
cognition of Vioroa E3IIIANUEL as the champion
of Italian liberty is gall and wormwood to the
jealous German, and willinly would she seize
any pretext for invading and crushing one whom
it is difficult to say whether she most hates or
dreads.
The attempt to involve, Sardinia in a diploma-
tic dispute last year—by a most unwarrantable
stretch of authority over the Tuscan Govern-
meut—cannot easily be forgotten. The snare
was only avoided by the extraordinary forbear-
ance of the Cabinet of Turin ; and the position in
which Sardinia was then placed as the faithful,
efficient, and honoured ally of France and Eng-
land, prevented Austria from pushing the dispute
to extremities, which might have prevented her
interference on behalf of Russia, and brought the
united force of the Western Powers into the
field against her. She therefore, for the time,
gave up her darling project, and refrained from
fur ther aggression on Piedmont.

But there is too much reason to fear that
the project gas been postponed, bat not abau-
doned—that she still cherishes her malevolent
schemes, and is seeking only a favourable oppor-
tunity to bring them into practical operation.
For what other purpose would she display such
c ostly military operations, increasing the ntunbers

THE DANUBE.

A letter from Constantinople in the Assemblelc
Nationale says :—" The arrival of a French mer-
chant steamer, the Lyonnais, at Orsova, on the
Danube, is announced. A correspondent from
that town says that the owner, M. Parrot, having
in vain attempted to dispose of the steamer to the
Danube Navigation Company, has now the inten-
tion of offering it for sale to the Servian Govern-
ment. In the event of his not succeeding, he has
the intention, after fulfilling all the sanitary and.
customs formalities, of ascending the Danube up to
Pesth and Vienna, with the view of studying the
course and currents of that river in anticipation
of next spring, when, in his opinion, the Danube
will be navigated in all its length by French
steamers. If it is really the intention of *the
Lyonnais to proceed up the Danube beyond Sem-
lid, she will perhaps receive the same reply as that
given to the Bavarian steamers, namely, that the
time has not yet come for claiming the application
of the stipulations of the Treaty of Paris."

LIVERPOOL-AUGOST 12.

There was a good attendance today. Prime wheat met
a good consumptive demand, arid being comparatively
scarce, brought an advance of 3d to 4d per 701bs on red,
and 4d to 6d on white. Prime sound flour also in demand,
and is per barrel dearer off the week. Ordinary and in-
ferior descriptions of wheat or flour only saleable at last
week's rates. Oats sold slowly, at late rates. Oatmeal
very difficult to move, though offered on easier terms.
Barley and beans maintained their value, with a slow re•
tail sale. Canadian peas were obtainable at 38s to 39s per
qr., being a decline of is to 2s, Indian corn in moderate
request for feeding, at 29s 9,1 to 30s 3d for yellow, 29s to

THE SITE OF THE SLEET PRISON.

A report was brought up from the improvement
committee, recommending that no steps should be
taken for the appropriation of the site of the late Fleet
Prison until it was determined whether anything is to
be dono respecting the removal of Newgate market, and
the arrangements of the markets of the City generally,
and whether any alterations were likely to be made with
respect to the Central Criminal Courts and the gaol of
Na wgnte.
In the discussion 'which followed,
Mr. T. H. HALL, the chairman of the committee, said
that personally he had inclined to the opinion that a plan
of a new street, which bad been examined at the sug-
gestion of Mr. Ross, would be likely to be eligible, but
the architect of whose skill and experience so high an es-
timate was made, was of opinion that the plan, if carried
into execution, would not give satisfaction. He moved.
that the report be agreed to.
Deputy HOLT thought the site referred to would
be a capital place for the erection of baths and wash-
houses.
Mr. Ross expressed his surprise at the opinion pro-
The necessity for a mu,'
nounced by the architectpalpable, at'd would be still.
street became daily more
greater if the contemplated removal of Newgate-market
should take place. For the space of 14 years the ground
had been unoccupied, during which time the serious sum
of ;4,0001. had been wasted. He should move so an
amendment that the report should lie upon the table,
and that the question be referred to the City lands am-
auttee.

Mr. HAWKIN% seconded the amendment.
After some discussion, in the course of which it `was
mentioned that the question of the new street 'was
marked for early consideration by the Board of Works!,
the amendment was lost, and the report agreed to.

A report was read from the City Lands Committe, to
whom it had been referred to ascertain whether th's re-
cent alteration in the law authorising the appointme ut
of two Courts of Nisi Prius to sit at the same tin us
within the City rendered it necessary to provide an y

PRESENTATION OF A GOLD ALBERT CHAIN
TO MR. NELSON LEE.

- - ---
Tuesday being the fiftieth representation of the pan-
tomime, Mr. Johnson, one of the lessees, presented his
partner and the author, Mr. Nelson Lee, with a massive
gold Albert chain, valued at 20 guineas, as a token of
respect, and to commemorate the unprecedented success
attending the " Fox and the Grapes," his 199th panto-
mime. We know of no gentleman more deserving.

The dollars brought by the last West India steamer
have been taken to day for China at 60(1. per ounce,
being an alliance of id. on the price obtained for the last
large arrival, although some small amounts have been
sold in the interval at the rate now fixed. The bar sil-
ver has not yet been disposed of.
AN UNDERGRADUATE OF OXFORD DROWNED.—Yes-
terday Mr. William Thomas Lane, commoner of Pem-
broke College, Oxford, was drowned by the upsetting of
a " dingy" at the junction of the Cherwell and the Isis.
A friend who was with bins managed to get across the
boat as it floated upside down, and was rescued. Mr.
Lane only entered this term, and, singular to say, he
occupied Mr. John's rooms, who, it will be recollected,
was also unfortunately drowned last term.
