THAMES.

JACK ON A LEE SgortE.—William Angus, aged 21 years,
a seaman, was brought before Mr Paget, charged with
being drunk and incapable of taking care of himself. A
more deplorable object than the prisoner. presented was
uover seen in a police court. He was covered with mud
and filth. His only covering was a flannel shirt, trousers,
and stockings. He had been robbed of all his money, the
remainder of his clothes and his papers, and was picked up
on a dung heap in Stepney. But for the humanity of the
police he would have perished.
Mr Paget asked the prisoner how ho came to be in such
a dreadful condition, to which he replied that he came
from Melbourne to Liverpool in the ship Iron Duko six
weeks ago, and was paid off with .£l5, the greater portion
of which he spent in London. He got drunk last night,
and some loose women robbed him of his money and

clothes.
Mr. Paget said the prisoner was an improvident and
most imprudent man, and had got rid of .£45 in six weeks.
Re advised him to go to sea again as soon as possible, and
be more provident with his money in future.
The unfortunate man, shivering and scarcely able to
walk, and barefooted, crept out of court.
A GAEG OF JUVENILE T I:MINIM—Jacob Hannaford, aged
10 years, Gerald Edward Fryer, 14, William Leonard, 12,
Walter Robinson, 11, and John Cuote alias Coates, were
brotight before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing two
kettles from outside the shop of Mrs. Ann Reed, of No.
113, Crisp-street, Poplar. The prisoners belong to a des-
perate set of juvenile offenders, who' have been continu-
ally plundering tradesmen for a long time past. They
took two heavy kettles from Mrs. Reed's shop, and de-
camped so hurriedly that they dropped the lids
of the kettles in the streets. The prisoners wore
taken into custody soon afterwards, and Hanna-
ford said I only took one kettle." Leonard said " I did
not take any, but Coates took some." Coates eaid "Fryer
put him up to it;" and all the boys criminated each other.
Mr. Paget was afraid the prisoners were a lot of young
villains, and remanded them for a week.
The mothers of the boys, who appeared to be comfort-
able, well-dressed, and in good circumstances, plead hard
for the liberation of their " dear boys," and amongst them
was Mrs. Coates, a fat and vulgar woman, who for many
years has boon a fighting woman in Poplar, and been con-
victed repeatedly for assaults and disturbances.
Mr. Paget—All the prisoners will be kept in prison for
a week.

A SAD CASE.—lienr; Pratt, a gentleman's servant,
was charged with bring drunk and knocking at the door
of Mr. Burr, 4, Arthur-street, Knightsbridge.
Mr. Burr said the prisoner came at half-past two in the
morning, and knocked at the door. He asked for Mr.
Johnson, a lodger, and was refused admission on the
ground of his drunkenness. Witness went to bud, and in
live minutes prisoner came back and resumed the kn °ek-
ing, so that witness was compelled to give him in charge.
tr., had a cfiluable gold watch and chain, and owner about
him, and witness did not consider lam of 801111 a
Mr. Johnson, the lodger, said be knew little of the pri-
soner, except that ho was a nice man, and as good a
fellow as ever broke the world's bread," but he was very
plausible, and those people would deceive the very elect.
(Laughter.) He had been iu the workhouse and a mad-
house, and had been remanded from this court to inquire
into his sanity.
Inspector Parnals said the prisoner was frequently
brought drunk to the station with a great deal of valuable
property about him; the last time he was here a clergy-
man took him home.
Priscner, in a peculiarly excited state, begged to be al-
lowed to go home.
Mr. Johnson said prisoner's brother was butler to his
Highness the Maharajah Duleep Sing, and prisoner went
to a situation at Oakingdon Grange, Oakham, Rutland
last week, but witness supposed he got drunk and left.
Mr. Selfe remanded prisoner fors a week, directing that
he should be seen to at the prison, and requesting also that
his friends might be communicatud, with.

LONGFORD COUNTY.

Mr. Reginald Greville-Nugent, second son of Lord
Greville, has issued his address to the electors of
Longford County. He promises to give an indepen-
dent support to the present Government, and declares
himself in favour of the denominational system of
education. He believes " that the release of the
Irish political prisoners would be an act of wise
statesmanship, grateful to the Irish people." On the land
question Mr. Greville-Nugent speaks out boldly :
" I am prepared to support a measure calculated to
secure the tenant in the permanent occupation of the
holding on which he resides as long as lie pays a
fair rent." This declaration, says the Freeman, can-
not be misunderstood or misconstrued. It is gene-
rally expected that there will be a walk over.

ment, 312, REGEvr-sutErr, exactly opposite the Royal
Polytechnic. Established 1820. This, the most perfected
mstem of painless dentistry, originated and invented by
21Er. R. L. Mosely, is recommended by the Hospitals and
adopted by the profession as one of the greatest improve-
ments of the ago for the alleviation of pain and restoration
of the natural functions, can solely be obtained in such
perfected success (the result of forty years' practical
perience) at his only residence, 312, Regent-street. Tho

dered useful, loose teeth and tender gums protected.
Qualities: These teeth never change colour or decay--in
fit unerring—ease cud co!nfort unsurpassed--detection
impossible—the facial anatomy faithfully studied —and
youthful appearance restored— mastication and articulation
gearanteed. The " Times" of March 6 says : —"So good
an imitation becomes the next best thing to the original."

DR. CHALMERS ON THE SABBATH.

I rose very early to see a new place, and (it was
between six and seven) seeing a large building, I asked a
man, who looked like a journeyman weaver, what it was.
He told me a grammar school. " But, sir," he added,
"I think it would become you better on the Lord's Day
morning to be reading your Bible at home, than asking
about public buildings." I very quickly answered, "My
friend, you have given me a piece of very good advice ;
let me give you one, and we may both profit by our
meeting. Beware of spiritual pride." The man scowled
with a Scotch surliness, and, apparently, did not take my
counsel with as much good humour as I did his. It was
after this that I heard Dr. Chalmers preach. In the
forenoon it was a plain discourse to plain people, in a sort
of school. In the afternoon it was a splendid discourse, in
the Tron Church, against the Judaical observance of the
Sabbath, which he termed "an expedient for pacifying
the jealousies of a God of vengeance "—reprobating the
operose drudgery of such Sabbaths. He represented the
whole value of Sabbath observance to lie in its being a
free and willing service—a foretaste of heaven. "If you
cannot breathe in comfort here, you cannot breathe in
heaven hereafter." Many years afterwards' I mentioned
this to Irving, who was then the colleague of Chalmers,
and already spoken of as his rival in eloquence, and he
told me that the deacons waited on the doctor to remon-
strate with him on the occasion of this sermon.

MADAME DE STAEL.

On the 28th of January I first waited upon her. I was
hewn into her bedroom, for which, not knowing Parisian
customs, I was unprepared. She was sitting, most deco-
rously, in her bed, and writing. She had her nightcap
on, and her face was not made up!for the day. It was by no
means a captivating spectacle, but I had a very cordial
reception, and two bright black eyes smiled benignantly on
me. After a warm expression of her pleasure at making
my acquaintance, she dismissed me till three o'clock. On
my return then I found a very different person—the
accomplished Frenchwoman surrounded by admirers, some
of whom were themselves distinguished. Among them
was the aged Wieland. There was on this, and I believe
on almost every other occasion, but one lady among the
guests ; in this instance Frau von Kaib. Madame de Stael
did not affect to conceal her preference for the societyo f
men to that of her own sex.

A FIRST VISIT TO GOETHE.

I had said to Seume that I wished to speak with Wie-
land, and look at Goethe—and I literally and exactly had
my desire. My sense of his greatness was such that, had
the opportunity offered, I think I should have been inca-
pable of entering into conversation with him ; but as it
was, I was allowed to gaze on him in silence. Goethe
lived in a large and handsome house—that is, for Weimar.
Before the door of his study was marked in mosaic, SALVE.
On our entrance he rose, and with rather a cool and
distant air beckoned us to take seats. As he fixed his
burning eye on Seume, who took the lead, I had his pro-
file before me, and this was the case during the whole of
cur twenty minutes' stay. He was then about 52 years of
age, and was beginning to be corpulent. He was, I think,
one of the mast oppressively handsome men I ever saw.
My feeling of awe was heightened by an accident. The
last play which I had seen in England was " Measure for
Measure," in which one of the most remarkable moments
was when Kemble (the Duke), disguised as a monk, had
his hood pulled off by Lueio. On this, Kemble, with an
expression of wonderful dignity, ascended the throne and
delivered judgment on the wrong-doers. Goethe sat
in precisely the same attitude, and I had precisely the
same view of his side-face. The conversation was quite
insignificant. My companions talked about themselves—
Seume about his youth of adversity and strange adven-
tures. Goethe smiled, with, as I thought, the benignity
of condescension. When we were dismissed, send I was
in the open air, I felt as if a weight were removed from
my breast, and exclaimed " Gott sei Dank ! "

O'CONNELL AT HOME.

A memorable day. I never before was of a party which
travelled in a way resembling a royal progress. A chariot
for the ladies. A car for the luggage. Some half-dozen
horsemen, of whom I was one. I was mounted on a safe
old horse, and soon forgot that I had not been on horseback
three times within the last thirty years. The natural
scenery little attractive. Bog and ocean, mountain and
rock, had ceased to be novelties. We passed a few mud
huts, with ragged women and naked urchins ; but all was
redolent of life and interest. At the door of every hut
were the inhabitants, eager to greet their landlord, for we
were now in O'Connell's territory. And their tones and
gesticulations manifested unaffected attachment. The
women have a graceful mode of salutation. They do not
courtesy, but bend their bodies forward. They join their
hands, and then, turning the palms outward, spread them,
making a sort of figure of a bell in the air. And at the
same time they utter unintelligible Irish sounds. At
several places parties of men were standing in lanes. Some
of these parties joined us, and accompanied us several
miles. I was surprised by remarking that some of the men
ran by the side of O'Connell's horse, and were vehement
in their gesticulations and loud in their talk. First one
spoke, then another. O'Connell seemed desirous of
shortening their clamour by whispering me to trot a little
faster. Asking afterwards what all this meant, I learnt
from him that all these men were his tenants, and that one
of the conditions of their bolding under him was that they
should never go to law, but submit all their disputes to
him. In fact, he was trying causes all the morning. We
were driven into a hut by a shower. The orators did not
cease. Whether we rested under cover or trotted forward
the eloquence went on. The but in which we took shelter
was, 1 was told, of the betteiniost kind. It had a sort of
chimney, not a mereliole in the roof a low, wooden seat like
a garden chair, and a recess which'
I didnot explore. The
hovels I afterwards saw seemed to me not enviable, even as
pigsties. At the end of ten miles we entered a neat house the
only one we saw. Before the door was the weir of a salmon
fishery. Here Mrs. O'Connell alighted, and was placed on
a pillion, as the carriage could not cross the mountain. As
the road did not suit myhorsemanship, I preferred walking.
The rest of the gentlemen kept their horses. From the.
highest point was a scene, not Alpine, but as wild as any
I ever saw in Scotland. A grand view of the ocean, with
rocky islands, bays, and promontories. The mouth of the
Kenmare river on one side, and Valentia bay and island
on the other, forming the abuttals of O'Connell's country,
Derrynane. In the centre, immediately. behind a small
nook of land, with a delicious sea-beach, is the mansion
of the O'Connells— the wreck, as he remarked, of the
family fortune, which has suffered by confiscations in
every reign, The last owner, he told me, Maurice, died

THE DOCTORS AND ,INTEMPERANCE.

In connection with the present meeting of the British
Medical Association in Leeds, about 150 of the members yes-
terday attended a breakfast in the new Great Northern Station
Hotel, on the invitation of Mr. Baines, M.P., one of the vice-
presidents, and some of the leading members of the National
Temperance League. Mr. Bowly, the president, the Rev. Alex.
Hannay, Mr. Baines, and other F;entlemen appealed to the
medical profession to aid them in thsit efforts to suppress the
drinking habits of the community, indicating that, in their
opinion, this might be done by the diminution, if not by the
entire withdrawal, of stimulants La private practice, in hos-
pitals, and in workhouses. Several interesting addresses
were made by medical gentlemen 'present, expressing con-
currence generally with the object of the league, and adding
the opinion that the question was cme which might appro-
priately be discussed in some of the physiolegical sections
of the association. The sections kgain me,t yesterday in
the Town Hall, and in that devoted to the consideration
:4 questions affecting publio health, tatx tateresting: discus-
sion on sanitary matters took place. In the afternoon there
was another general meeting,-at which 0, paper was read
upon hospitals by Dr. Galton, C.B. ; and 'the annual dinner
of the society afterwards took place at tb B Town Hall.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ALLEGED MOCK MARRIAGE AND CHARGE OF ROBBERY.—
Jules Michel Benedict, a young man, described as a tra-
veller, was charged before Mr. Tyrwh!tt with stealing the
sum of £34 from a young German woman, named Mari©
Bremer.

Mr. Abrams appeared for the defence, and Superinten-
dent Thomson watched the case.

The prosecutrix, a rather good-looking young woman,
said that on the 25th June she met the prisoner on board
a steamer coming from Dieppe. He formed an acquaint-
ance, and on reaching England they went to the New
York Hotel, Leicester-square, and three days after they
were married, and she signed a certificate. Two days after
they were married the prisoner took her money, and she
did not object, because she though he had a right to do
so. She charged him with robbing her, because he had
deceived her, telling her on Friday last that the marriage
was not valid, and that with the assistance of two other
men had deceived her.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—Tho prosecutrix believed herself married
to the prisoner when he took her money.
Tho prosecutrix said she did, and still believed it. The
interpreter at the hotel took her to the place to be-mar-
ried and signed the certificate. She did not know the
place. When she asked for a copy of the certificate she
was told she could not have it for two days, and although
she gave the magistrate 20 francs to get it he did not do so.
The prisoner, when ho told her that the marriage was not
valid, sale that she could go home to her mother, but as
she was a wife, how could she go ?

In cross-examination the prosecutrix, through Mr.
Albert, said her father was 40 years in the Imperial ser-
vice at Vienna. That when she first spoke to the prisoner
he offered her 1,000 francs to live him. She was not in
love with him then, but she was now. She lived with
the prisoner four weeks, and ho bought her different
articles, and gave her £lO c ne time, and £1 another time.
Ile gave her money when she wanted it, and she made
no objection to his taking her money.
Detective Sergeant F-erley, of the F division, said that
in taking prisoner into custody on Saturday night he said
he was no thief, and that prosecutrix was not his wife, and
he repeated that at the station.
Mr. Abrams addressed the magistrate on the part of
the accused, stating that the charge had been got up by
a person who had been convicted, there being no grounds
whatever for it.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said that the whole case was very am -
biguous, and ho could not but think that a inockraarriage
had taken place. lie gibettki rotund tb,aprismaer 94 bail

THE SERVICES.

Within a week two vice-admirals have died, thus
promoting some scores of persons in the navy. Now
it is stated that Admiral Sir Henry Prescott, K.C.8.,
who was lately knocked down and run over by a
vehicle near Charing-cross is still suffering from the
injuries he received, and as the gallant officer is between
80 and 90 years of age, much anxiety is felt by his
friends on his account.—By the promotion of Capt. J.
Wainwright to the rank of rear-admiral, the post of
senior officer at Bermuda will be at the disposal of
Mr. Childers, as also a good-service pension. The
latter, it is reported, will be bestowed on Captain
Sherard Osborn, C.B.—The Broad Arrow states that
the clerks and officials in Chatham Dockyard have
received notice that the supernumeraries usually
engaged to enable them to take their annual holiday
will not in future be provided at the public expense.

VOTES FOR WOMEN.

" Helen T." writes to the Spectator on behalf of
women's suffrage. This lady holds that it is an
error to assert that the advocates of " women's
rights" would do better to concentrate their energies
on enlarging the education of the gentler sex
rather than in seeking political power for them.
It was asserted in behalf of men that political
equality was the best educator ; why not, " Helen T."
asks, should not the same doctrine apply to women ?
The friends of women believe that the possession of
the suffrage will help them to secure the great ends
they have in view—better education and greater
opportunities of employment. It is on this ground
—as a means to an end—that they desire votes.
London, England, 1869-08-02

A SERIOUS STRIKE.

Who does not pity Mr. Speaker ? In the House of
Commons he has to sit sometimes for nearly twelve
hours together listening to the stream of talk-talk
which the small men of the House pour upon him.
But if he is to be pitied sitting half asleep in his
chair after the hands of the clock have passed the
witching hour of twelve, what oceans of sympathy
ought to be given to the reporters, who cannot
even go half asleep, but must keep sharper
ears as the orators get duller and heavier. There
are some members of the House, however, who have
no pity for, and do not consider, the reporters. A
few of these members, Irish representatives mostly,
made a House in the small hours of Friday morning.
Four o'clock on Thursday afternoon the House began
business, and at half-past two on Friday morning it
was still sitting, with several " orders " to go through.
Such very exciting bills had to be discussed as the
Public Works (Ireland) Bill, an Irish drainage bill,
the Nitro-Glycerine Bill, &c. Most of the press-
men leave at two, the " victili s " finishing
the night's work. When, at half-past two, the mem-
bers present seemed determined to go to the end of
the list; when it became obvious that the sitting
would last till nearly four o'clock if all the members
who wanted to do so expressed their opinions, the
Reporters' Gallery became a scene of no small com-
motion, and its occupants vowed they would not
write another line of oratory ; they would punish
the speakers by refusing to allow their sayings to be
known outside the walls of the Chamber. So, leaning
back, they looked on unconcernedly. Presently, on
the Nitro-Glycerine Bill, an hon. member inquired
whether nitro-glycerine was identical with dynamite,
producing a packet of the latter from his pocket.
Now the public spirit of " gallery-men " is well
known ; they would deny themselves to any extent
for the good of the public and the House ; but this was
too much. So, " as a mere matter of personal safety,"
and (we can assure our readers) from no base desire
to get away from work, the reporters fled. What
was done afterwards is not known. It is rumoured
that Sir R. O'Brien was much disgusted on looking
up to the gallery to find no reporters there, and he
suggested that the members of the press had com-
mitted a breach of privilege. But the Speaker told
the hon. gentleman that the House could not control
the reporters, as it did not pay them. Speeches were
very short the remainder of that night.
