POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS DAI.)

MARLBOROUQH-STREET.

COITRAGEOtk; CONDUCT OF I GENTLEMAN.—WiIIiant
Walsh, a boo tmaker, of 50, Old Compton-street, was charged
with assaulting Mr. George Forbes Upward, a gentleman,
residing at 19, liarewood-square, Dorset-scptare.

Mr. Upward said that on the previous night he was pass-
ing througl4Tew Coventry-street on the way to the New
York Hotel to see a friend, Mr. Hensley, when the prisoner
accosted him, with the remark that " it was a dirty night,"
and just as he turned into Leicester-street the prisoner,
who had been following him, got before him and seized his
person in a most indelicate manner, and made an observa-
tion to him. He told him he had mistaken his person, and
collared him, being determined not to let him escape, when
he broke away from him, but he pursued him and caught
him, when he bit his thumb in a very savage manner. He
called" Po:ice," and a gentleman came to his assistance,
and afterwards the police. (Prosecutor's thumb was se-
verely bitten.) .

A gentleman, who went to the assistance of the prose-
cutor, proved seeing the prisoner bite his thumb in a
savage manner, and also seeing the prisoner's dress dis-
arranged.

Sergeant Oliver, 291 A, sail at the station the prisoner
denied the charge.

The prisoner entered into a rambling defence, but of a
most improbable kind, touching on the cattle show, Dr.
Cumming, the Westminster Dispensary, the prophet
Isaiah—in fact everything but the actual charge, simply
denying that.
Mr. Beadon committed the prisoner for trial.

DUBLIN, SATURDAY.

A Carlow paper publishes a translation of the
Holy Father's reply to the address of the "Roman
Catholic Bishop of Kildare," accompanying the
Papal tribute collected from the faithful of that
diocese. The document is as follows :--
"TO OUR VENERABLE BROTHER JAMES, BISHOP OP
KILDARE AND LEIGHLIN, IN IRELAND.
" PIUS, P.P., IX.

" Venerable Brother,—Health and Apostolic
Benediction.—From your most dutiful and affec-
tionate letter lately received by us, we perceive that
the clergy and people of Kildare and Leighlin—
who are so firmly bound to us and to the chair of
Peter, by their great faith, their piety, and their
obedience—have, encouraged by your pastoral let-
ters, contributed with great promptness and love
the sum of £5,525 sterling, to relieve the present
necessities of the Holy See.
" Therefore, Venerable Brother, while we express
to you the sense of our deep gratitude, we request
that you convey to the clergy and people of Kil-
dare and Leighlin the assurance of our just and
sincere thanks.
" We feel convinced that you and your clergy
and people are filled with indignation, and oppressed
with grief and affliction at the impious and sacri-
legious attempts by which wicked men, insensible
to every feeling of justice and virtue, wage a most
fierce war agaiast usthe rights of the Holy See
and the Catholic Church ; and, :regardless of all
human and divine law, endeavour to usurp our civil
power, invade the patrimony of St. Peter, and vio-
lently seize upon the temporal kingdom of the
Holy See. We hope, Venerable Brother, that you
and all your clergy and people will not cease to
offer your most fervent prayers to the God of mer-
cies, that He may remove so great a calamity,
humble all the enemies of the Church, deign to lead
them back to the way of justice and truth, and
assist and console us in all our tribulation. In times
of so much excitement, of so much wickedness, and
such hostility to our holy religion, we feel assured,
Venerable Brother, from your piety and episcopal
zeal, that you will strenuously defend the cause of
our holy faith—vigilantly watch over the safety of
your faithful people, refute the many and perm-
dons errors of wicked men, detect their snares, and
defeat their impious attempts.

towards you, receive the benediction which we

THE ENGLISH VOLUNTEERS IN ITALY.—A letter
from. Naples says :—" The volunteers of the English
Legion, whom no man ever thought of reproaching for
want of pluck, and who behaved most gallantly in the
only opportunity that offered, aro now becoming an intole-
rable nuisance, as they are unable to resist the temptations
of cheap Italian wine, and aro apt to get abusive and quar-
relsome over their cups—to such an extent, indeed, that
in
an encounter sc me of Colonel Peard's Legion had with Ita-
lian Garibaldians of the Sacchi Division at Caserta on the
27th ult., they first came to fisticuffs, then to bayonet
thrusts, and even pistol shots, till two or three killed and
about balf-a-dozen wounded were left on the field by either
party,"

DR. LA'MERT on the Treatment and cure of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, resulting
from pernicious habits contractedin Youth, excesses in Man-
hood, or residence in Tropical Climates. With Cases and En-
gravinE,,s from Life, representing the various Organs in
Health and Disease.
The extensive circulation of this work may be attributed in
great measure to the fact that the Author is the only duly
qualified and legally registered Practitioner who for 20
years has made the Diseases arising usually from
Ymprudence the peculiar objects of his attention. The im-
pediments which so often either prohibit wedlock, or embitter
and render it a state of misery, by disappointing its fondest
hopes and marring its highest objects, are, though varied in
form, closely analogous in reality. The mischief may arise in-
nocently, from deleterious influences devolved from the
necessities of position—from circumstances which occurred
years before the sufferers were born, from accident or the in-
fluence of tropical climates, but chiefly from Self-incurred
Afflictions, dating back, in too numerous instances, to a period
lone: preceding that at which reason could be matured by ex-
perience.
A professional prejudice, which happily is now fast disap-
pearing, though it still lingers with no little obstinacy in
some of the more antiquated medical schools, for a long time
almost ignored the morbid affections comprised under the
general designation "Nervous and Physical Debility," though
these affections are probably more destructive and widely pre-
valent than any others.
The consequence of so important a department of pathology
being, neglected is, that sufferers from the infirmities in
question, virtually repelled from consultation with prac-
titioners of afanding and character, are thus liable to fall into
the hands of unqualified Empirics, sometimes assuming titles
of Physicians and Surgeons, whose names are not to be found
in the Medical Register (whereby they incur serious legal
penalties),
l
these disorders a standing reproach to the

that any of the observations here made have peculiar applica-
tion to themselves, may consider that cases are indeed rare
in which practised science cannot fully realise long-deferred
hopes, remove all causes of mutual reproach, and replace
chronic embitterment by permanent content.
Dr. La'Mert, M.D., Honorary Member of the London Hos-
pital Medical Society, &c., is the only legally qualified regis-
tered practitioner who, for 20 years, has devoted his attention
to the treatment of these disorders. At home for consultk

TIHE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITH'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause Is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the -rim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

HUNGARY.

A Vienna letter of the 3d has the following :--
"The situation becomes more complicated and
critical every day in Hungary. What is most re-
markable in it is the political antagonism which
exists between the party of young Hungary,'
which is ardent and ?evolutionary, and that of the
Magnates, or old aristocracy. In all meetings of
notables, or of committees, the re-establishment of
the civil and political organisation established
by the Constitution of the 17th March, 1849, is
demanded ; and if that were to be obtained it
would be, so to speak, the starting point of the
complete enfranchisement of Hungary from the
sovereign authority of the House of Austria. Now
it is to that object that the efforts of the great
majority of the young Hungary' party are tending
both at-home and abroad. Another alarming cir-
cumstance is that the refusal to pay taxes is
becoming general in country districts. A few
days back the amount of taxes remaining unpaid
was 12,000,000 florins, or about 30,000,000 fr. The
occupiers of farms, generally speaking, take ad-
vantage of the agitation which prevails, and to
which they contribute, to avoid paying the taxes
and the arrears they owe. The revolutionary party
has, besides, succeeded in establishing such a sys-
tem of terrorism in the country that no one dares
present himself at the sales of furniture, grain, and
cattle which are made by order of justice for the
non-payment of taxes."

REPORTED DEATH OF TWO MEN.

This morning, at half-past ten, the neighbourhood of
Liverpool-street, Old Broad-street, was the scene of a most
frightful calamity. At 10, Liverpool-street, a block of
buildings (held by Mr. Stapleton) are undergoing repair, or
rather reconstruction, and a most extensive range of scaf-
folding has been standing for some days. A number of
workmen were employed upon the premises, and to one at
least such employment this morning proved fatal. With-
out a moment's warning, the whole planking upon which
the men were standing at their work gavo way, carrying
all before it. A number of poor follows were precipitated
to the ground more or less hurt, but two of their
number, we are sorry to say, are reported killed. There
can be no doubt about one poor fellow, but in the
excitement and confusion, nothing beyond could be accu-
rately ascertained. The police were at once upon the spot,
and the wounded and killed taken to the hospital (the
p)lice on duty at 11 could not know which). By a quarter
past 11 the ground was to some extent cleared, but a great
number of persons had assembled, and many were the
lamentations.

Tho scene of the accident presented a curious appearance,
being entirely deserted except by one man, who was climb-
ing up a ladder inside the carcase of the building. The
poles of the scaffolding were entirely stripped, and as bare
as when first put up. Of course an inquiry will take place.

It is said that the Emperor of the French finds
25 millions of francs insufficient to meet the great demands
on his privy purse, and that a proposal will be made to aug-
meat the Imperial income to 4.o.raillions.—eort eournd.

THE SUN, LON 13011; MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 22, MO,

The proceedings closed with a dinner hospitably

given by Mr. Johnston, who commands the Hales-'
worth Corps, to all the Volunteers assembled, and'
a number of friends. Capt. Johnston presided,
and in proposing the health of the Earl of Strad-
broke, in his official capacity of Lord-Lieutenant
of Suffolk, congratulated his Lordship upon the
fact that there were no fewer than 17 Volunteer
corps of riflemen and artillerymen •in the county.
The noble lord, in respording, reviewed the cir-

cumstances which had induced the Volunteer
movement, and expressed his conviction that the
spirited manner in which it had been carried out
had immensely increased the security of the
country. The proceedings of the day were grati-
fying to all concerned.

A fifth battalion has been added to the four
already organised in Staffordshire, the new batta-
lion, which contains five companies, being allowed
a staff, consisting of a major and adjutant. All the
other battalions have a lieutenant-colonel and ad-
jutant, and three of them a major. The first bat-
talion consists of the companies in and around the
Pottery towns, and numbers 11 companies, besides
two others in course of organisation. The second
contains seven companies, including three formed
at Bourton, the rest being in the agricultural towns
in the north-east of the county. The third batta-
lion numbers eight companies in the south-east of

the county ; the fourth, including the three Wol-
verhampton companies, eight companies in the
south-west ; and the new or fifth battalion, five
companies in the central district around Walsall.
There are 40 companies whose services are accepted
in the county, and two in course of organisation,
one of which, Etruria, in the Potteries—a place
which owes its name and existence to the celebrated
Wedgwood—is intended to be an artillery com-
pany. On Tuesday Major Dick, the Government
inspector, reviewed the third battalion in Patshull-
park, the seat of the Earl of Dartmouth,. who,
having enlibteil ae a private and for some time
served as an ensign, is now captain of the Patshull
Company. About 450 mustered on the occasion,
and after the review, which was very satisfactory,
were regaled with pork pies, &c., at the cost of Lord
Dartmouth.
At the suggestion of Lord A. Vane Tempest—
which suggestion meets with the approval of the
Lord-Lieutenant, Lord Durham—it is probable that
a meeting of commanding officers of the Volunteer
Rifle Corps in the county will be held early in No-
vember in the city of Durham, with a view to form
an association to be called the Durham Rifle Asso-
ciation. It is intended that this association shall
take the initiative for a county rifle shooting to be
held in the spring of 1861.

FUNERAL OF A VOLUNTEER.

Saturday, at half-past two, was appointed for
the funeral of Corporal John Donovan, of the 20th
Middlesex, who died in an omnibus on Monday
last. Before one o'clock crowds of people were
seen wending their way to Bayham-street, Camden-
town, in which the family of the deceased resided,
and by the time that his comrades of the 20th, and
his fellow employes in the establishment of Niessrs.
Collard, had assembled, the street was packed with
human beings. By dint of strenuous exertions,
however, the 20th managed to clear a space imme-
diately in front of the house, for the hearse and the
mourning coaches, three in number. Facing the
house were drawn up,under the comman d ofa sergeant
the'firing party, who presented arms as the corpse
was brought out, and reversed arms as soon as it
was placed in the hearse. The mournful cortege
started about 20 minutes to three in the followin g
order :—The band ; the hearse, with on each side,
three members of the company of the deceased ;
the firing party bearing their arms reversed, and
with white scarfs and hat bands; the mourning
coaches, with the family of the deceased ; the re-
maining members of his company; a detachment
of the London Irish, fifty in number, under the
command of Lieut. Tully, who attended as a mark
of respect to the memory of a fellow countryman ; a
company of the 29th North Middlesex, under Ser.
geant-Major Morton and Colour-Sergeant Spinks,
of the 4th Company . about 500 members of the 20th,
without arms ; and bringing up the rear, all the
officers and covering sergeants. The band, in
starting, played the " Dead March in Saul," the
procession moving in slow time through High-
street, Camden•town, and Park-street, where a
quicker pace was ordered round the Edgware-road
and Harrow-road, to St. Mary's Roman Catholic
Cemetery, Kensal-green, where it arrived soon
after half-past four. At the gate the body, which
was here removed from the hearse and borne by
his comrades, was met by the curate whose turn of
duty it was to officiate, attended by acolytes in
surplices, bearing tapers, and the procession again
moved on headed by the bearer of a large crucifix,
the priest intoning the opening sentences of the fu-
neral office, to the chapel, where the coffin, on which
was laid the cap, plume, and belts of the deceased,
was deposited. The in-door service having been
performed the procession moved to the grave, where,
when the office was concluded, the firing party de-
livered three parting volleys over the last resting-
place of their comrade. The 20th and the other
corps engaged then re-formed and marched back to
town, the band playing several lively airs, to the
great delight of the large crowd which had accom-
panied the procession. The military arrangements
were most effectively arranged by Sergeant-Major
Box, of the 20th, and Sergeant Backen of the Ist
Battalion of Coldstream Guards, who has from its
formation been the instructor of Collard's company.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THI3 DAY

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
ROBBER? AT MESSRS. NICOLL'S, REGENT-STREET.—
Thomas Harrison, robo maker, Thames Ditton, Surrey, and
James Armstrong, 37, Great St. Andrew-gtreot, tailor,
betore Mr. Tyrwhitt, with stealing, at 15,
Warwick-street, Regent-street, a surplice, 5 hoods, silk
robes, and 24 silver masonic ornaments, and other articles,
the property of Messrs. Henry, John, and Donald Nicoll,
merchant tailors, of Warwick .street and Regent-street.
Mr. John P. Murrough, of Warwick-chambers, appeared
for the prisoners. _

From the evidence of Mr. Donald Nicoll, it appeared that
the prisoners had been in his employ since June last, and
that on Saturday evening, seeing Armstrong harrying away
from the premises with a parcel, he had him stopped by
the manager, and, on the parcel being opened, it was found
to contain the above-named goods, the parcel being directed
to "Mr. Harrison, Thames Ditton, cloak-room, Waterloo
Station." The prisoner Armstrong, when asked whether
ho knew what the parcel contained, said he did, and that he
was acting under Harrisox's direction, and that he was to
meet him at the station, and there the officer took Harrison
into custody on his coming for the parcel.
Brown, 128 C, proved taking Harrison into custody on
his asking for the parcel, he (Harrison) saying it was his
parcel. He afterwards went to Thames Ditton and searched
his house, and the property produced was given up, consist-
ing of white surplices and four black robes, but not com-
pletely made up.
Mr. Murrough having cross-examined tho witnesses, and
the evidence having been read over, addressed the magistrate
o
in a very energetic manner on behalf of the prisoners,
were remanded on bail.
It was stated that Harrison formerly carried on an exteen:s
sive business in Chancery-Jane as a robe maker, his business
afterwards being transferred to Mr. Nicoll.
