PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 2d says :—"Great
activity is displayed in the different ministries in
preparing bills to be presented to the Chambers in
the next session. Amongst them is one on patents,
and another for largely increasing the Prussian
fleet. The trousseau of the Princess Louisa of
Prussia is to be publicly exposed next week. The
marriage of the princess with the Prince Regent of
Baden is to take place on the 20th September.
People persist in saying that the Queen of England
will come to Berlin OR the occasion, in compliance
with an intimation from the Prince of Prussia in
his last journey to London. The Prince of Coburg
Gotha has passed through this city on his way to
the province of Prussia to be present at the
military manoeuvres. Prince Maurice of Al-
tenburg has left Potsdam to make a journey
to the East. The prince, who serves in the
regiment of hussars of the guard, has obtained
leave of absence to February, 1857. The
Prussian commissioner for the regularisation of the
navigation of the Danube, M. Bitterr, still remains
in this capital waiting for instructions. It is said
that the labours of the commission are stopped by
the delay in the regularisation of the frontiers of
Bessarabia. It having been rumoured that several
cases of cholera had broken out in the city, the
authorities have caused an investigation to be made,
and the result is not only that the rumour is void
of all foundation, but that there is nothing to indi-
catethat an invasion of the malady is probable."

The Gazette of Vorthiin Germany says :--" The
Consistory of the province of Prussia has sent to
the clergy of the province a circular, according to
the terms of which the prohibition of the marriage
of a noble with a female of the class of peasants, or
petite bourgeoisie, still exists, notwithstanding Art.
4of the Constitution. This law has been several
times applied, and has been recognised by the
Minister of Justice."

DANGER OP SLEEPING AT CJHuana.—During the Sun-
day evening service at St. Botolph's Church, Colchester,
a poor lad, named Amos, of Magdalen-street, fell asleep
in the northern gallery, and being unperceived was
locked up in the church all night. On awaking at four
o'clock on Monday nlerning, and discovering his lonely
situation, he was excessively frightened, and made the
sacred edifice resound with his cries for release. The
noise, to the great disturbance of the neighbourhood,
was heard for some time, but the locale of the young pri-
g mer was not discovered till eight o'clock, when he was
liberated by Mr. T. Osborne, churchwarden.—Ch,clms-
ford Chronicle. •
The prospectus has been issued of a flax mills com-
pany, promoted by some leading agriculturists. The
capital proposed is 100,0001. in 201. shares, and the
object is to establish manufactories in districts conve-
nice t to the grower, the neglect of flax cultivation of late
years being attributed maiely to there being no buyers
within reach. The company also intend to avail them-
selves of rolling and washing, which, it is said, increases
the value of the flax fibre 151. to 30. per ton without
any appreciable expenee. About 8,0001. is the estimate
for the cost of each mill, and the annual outlay for
working it and for the purchase of straw to make 250
tons of fibre will be 10,0001. The annual return,
reckoning the fibre at 601. per ton, and the tow at 15/.,
is put down at 16,2001. Practical persons will be able
to check for themselves the probable correctness of these
expectations. Should they be borne out in any satis-
factory degree a new and most important element of
profit will be introduced into the calculations of the far-
mer, while at the same time the anticipations realised
will be such as have for a long time been strongly dwelt
upon by many intelligent persons.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—Robert Taylor, a young
man in the service of Mr. H. Rodel, bookseller, No. 21,
Old Bond street, was brought before Mr. Bingham
charged with embezzling several sums of money received
for and on account of his master.

It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was a
messenger in the employ of the prosecutor, and it was
his duty to collect in moneys, and regularly to account to
him for the sums collected. This the prisoner neglected
to do, and absconded from his employ about a month ago.
This circumstance excited prosecutor's suspicion, and on
making inquiry he discovered that the prisoner had been
receiving several small sums of money on his
(prosecutor's) account. Prosecutor was only prepared
with one case, and the person from whom the prisoner
received a sovereign was now present.
Madame Bonnecourt, 23, Newport-street, stated that
she was a tenant of prosecutor's. About a month ago
prisoner called upon her for the rent due, and she then
paid him a sovereign, for which he gave her a receipt.
The prisoner said he admitted receiving the money
and spending it. This made him afraid to return to the
prosecutor.

The prosecutor said the prisoner was a well-educated
young man, and although there were other cases against
him he would not press the charge against him with
severity, as he (prosecutor) thought the present affair
would be a warning to him for the future.
The prisoner was then sentenced to three months' im-
prisonment with hard labour.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Sept. 4.—The Preussische Correspon.
dem informs its readers that, in conformity with a
regulation made by the King in 1841 for the bien-
nial convocation of the provincial estates of this
country, the Provincial Diets of Preussen, Posen,
Silesia, Saxony, Westphalia, and Rht inland will be
convoked on Oct. 5 for the despatch of business.
For the provinces of Brandenburg and Pomerania
the day of covocation remains to be fixed subse-
quently, with a view to meeting the conveni-
ence of the parties interested in the matters to
be deliberated on. These provincial institutions
for local legislation fell into disuetude at the
time of the revolution of 1848, and it was the hope
of the Liberal party that they had been definitively
superseded by the parliamentary institution of the
Legislative Chambers for the whole kingdom, seeing
that they were the stronghold of a narrow, local
spirit of provincial particularism, opposed to the
progress of wider views of improvement and deve-
lopment, but in 1854 they were revived, mainly
by the agency of the present Minister of the In-
terior, and seem now to have resumed their former
place among the institutions of the country. The
simultaneous existence, however, of the Diet of
the whole kingdom, the two Chambers, prevents
the local spirit of the provincial estates influencing
any other than mere local legislation, and they
seem to occupy now about the same place iu the
Prussian polity that the grand juries of the counties
do in ours.

W. S. WOODIN AT BRIGHTON.

Last evening this young and accomplished favou-
rite of the Londoners began his autumn season in
the provinces, not merely successfully, but most
triumphantly. It was the first of a "limited num-
ber of nights " of his glorious and famous Olio of
Oddities—performed by that " travelling company"
lIIMSELF ! upon his own " travelling stage," erected
in the grand banquet-hall (George the Fourth's
Grand Banquet Hall) in the old Brighton Pavi-
lion. As a matter of course the room was crowded,
as—equally a matter of course--it will not fail to
be crowded every night Mr. Woodin chooses to re-
main " the cynosure of neighbouring eyes " in the
great fashionable watering-place of Sussex, once
upon a time called Brightbelmstone. How the
audience last evening did laugh, to be sure I—as
the voluble young Proteus "in his time " (about
two hours altogether, the whole wonderful enter-
tainment !) " played many parts" (some thirty in
one song alone, the memorable Loco-Joco-Motive
Lyric " Off by the Train !")—pattering through it
all with an irresistible flow of spirits—spirits the
very antithesis of blue-devils—sparkling, gay, de-
lightful ! Perhaps the greatest success of all,
among Mr. Woodin's many marvellous impersona-
tions (especially with the young ladies of Brighton)
is the incomparable Miss Clara Chattaway—with
her cambric handkerchief, her ringlets and her
white kids, her piano, her cough, and her coquetry I
The unrivalled polyphonist of his age, fairly took
his hearers by storm yesterday. Success goes with
him wherever he journeys in his hard-working
" holidays"—for he wins it (for his auditors) most
pleasantly, but (for himself) most laboriously !

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

Shakespere's "As You Like It" was on Thursday
evening performed at this thextra for tho purpose, of in•
troducing a Miss Booth to a London audience. The
jiung lady has all the requisites for an actress, namely,
pleasing and expressive features, a graceful deportment,
and a good now of spirits ; and, in the difficult part she
had chosen for her first appearance, Rosalind, they were
all required. On her first entry she was ♦ery cordially
received, and during the play she frequently elicited
loud applause by the effectiveness of her acting. Miss
Booth has every reason to congratulate herself on the
success she achieved and with patient study
and practice she may secure for herself a good position
in the profession she has chosen. Mr. Howe sustained
the part of Jacques very judiciously ; and the Orlando
of Mr. W. Farren was more than respectable. Mr.
Compton's Touchstone was a masterly performance ; it
was quite equal to his Dogberry in " Much Ado about
Nothing," and this is saying a great deal, for unques-
tionably there is no actor that can approach him in that
part at present on the London stage. The little part
of Adam was beautifully sustained by Mr. Chippendale ;
indeed it was the effort of a consummate artiste. The
other parts in the comedy were well filled. The house
was crowded in every part, and at the rising of the
curtain standing room was at a premium. The talented
lessee richly merits this success.

L9NDON, THIIRSDA.Y, OCTOBER 23, 1356.

The wags of Naples that arch-wag, King
BOMBI, included—would probably be delighted
to learn that English Literature holds forth a
model from which they may construct a lasting
memorial of what seems likely to be the story of
the interference of France and England with
Neapolitan affairs. The department of literature
in which this model may be found is the ballad,
and when this is said the reader will have little
difficulty in coming to the conclusion that the
" Doleful Tragesly of Guy Fawkes" is alluded to.
The opening stanza informs us of the subject-
matter of the song ; it is--
"Guy Fawkes, the prince of sinisters,
Who once blew up the House of Lords,
The King and all his Ministers

the conscientious minstrel immediately afterwards,
however, with a laudable regard for truth, softens
his rather over-bold announcement by the quail-

TURKEY.

We have received the Constantinople journals
and letters to the brought by the Sinai.
The question of the National Bank still remains
unsettled. Several attempts have been made
to effect an arrangement among the companies
who intend to tender for the privilege, but all
had turned out failures. Persons well versed
iu financial affairs express doubts as to whether
the Porte will see offers sent in which it can
accept, and fears are entertained that the mo-
netary crisis which prevails in Europe may
cause the agents at Constantinople to receive
counter orders from their principals. In addi-
tion to the difficulties of the financial question,
great anxiety is felt at seeing the English squa-
dron in the Bosphorus almost daily receiving rein-
forcements. Accounts reached Constantinople just
as the packet left, of the death of General Guyon.
The general, who was of Irish extraction, signa-
lised himself in the Hungarian army in 1848 ; and
afterwards, under the name of Kourchid Pacha,
took part in the campaign of Anatolia. His death

is said to have been caused by cholera. Accounts
from Bucharest state that the firman for convoking
the divans was known in that city and had pro-
duced an unfavourable effect. Prince A. Ghika,
feeling the necessity of modifying his ministry, had
offered the portfolio of the Interior to M. Cretzou-
lesco, who refused it. Stirbey was said to be im-
peding all the acts of the government by his in-
trigues. The Caiwakan has ordered judicial pro-
ceedings to be commenced against three influential
Boyards.

DISCOTERY OF SAXON GRAVES.

__....,_
A discovery of considerable interest, throe'
ing much light upon the funeral rites of our
Saxon ancestors previous to their conversion t°
Christianity, was accidentally made during O°
past week in the garden attached to the reel'
dence of Mr. Charles Carill Worsley, at Winster,
Derbyshire. While lowering a bank of earth for
the purpose of making some improvements in the
pleasure ground the labourers uncovered two
graves at the depth of upwards of four feet front
the present surface, each containing a human ske-
leton, lyingon its right side with the knees drawn
up and the head pointing towards tne north-east.
A careful examination of the place and the objects
there discovered affords evidence of the interments
having been made in the following manner :—A wood
fire was in the first place lighted on the ground, in or
around which some large stones were put so as to he"
come calcined ; this being burnt out, the place it oc-
cupied was cleared for the reception of the body,
which was then deposited in the position before
mentioned, along with the implements aid weapons
of the deceased. The calcined stones were next pile'
carefully over the corpse, and finally earth vit°
heaped up above the whole, probably while the
ground was still warm. The first skeleton 101
accompanied by a small spear-head or knife of iron,
much corroded, and the lower stone of a hand-
mill, anciently used in every household for grind'
ing corn • the latter had passed the fire. With
the second interment was found the upper atone
of the same mill, very neatly wrought in sandstone,
but split to pieces by the great heat to which it bad
been exposed. Some pieces of a very coarse vessel
of plain earthenware were found near the he*d
of this skeleton, and behind it lay a large spear-
head of iron, 2 feet 10 inches long, a curved instru-
ment of the same metal, five inches, originally
fixed in a wooden handle, the bone ferule of which
still remains, and a ring-like head or decoration of
light-coloured porcelain, about one inch and a-half
iu diameter, The whole of the articles exhumed
from these graves (which may he assigned to the
Teutonic or iron period, including the time from
the end of the fifth to the eighth century, A.D.),
by the kind permission of Mr. C. Carill Worsley,
have been deposited in Mr. Bateman's museum of
antiquities, at Lomberdale-house.

The Right Hon. Sir Francis and Lady Arabella Bar'
ing left Stratton Park, on Tuesday last, upon a visit to
Sir Charles Wood, at Hickleton Hall, Yorkshire.
We understand that the wedding of Miss Louie*
Carew, the lovely and accomplished daughter of Mrs.
Petrie Waugh, with Sir Charles Pigott, will take place
oa Thursday next, at St. George's Church, Hanover-
square.

THE CRYSTAL PALACE FRAUDS•

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY—(THIS DAY)•
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn,)

IN RE ROBSON.
To-day was appointed for the choice of assignees under
the estate of this bankrupt, who had been a clerk in the
Transfer-office of the Crystal Palace Compu.ny, and who
stands committed on frauds relating to the sh.eres of the

company.
Creditors proved debts to the amonni of abom:
and Mr. Geo. Sidney Clement, of Bank-buildings, 51A-IC
f
broker, was appointed assignee. The other portion% 0"
the proceedings was private.
The bankrupt was brought up in custody and sur-
rendered.
It was stated at the termination of the meeting that°f
the official assignee (Hr. Johnson) had a liani
1,1351. in hand available as a dividend for the credit"'
—but the amount of the debts cannot at present be ug"
certained. Mr. Smith totally denies owing Robsuu
money, having paid the produce of the sale of the furPr
ture into the hands of the official assignee.

be effectually drained, and the Thames rescued
from its state of pollution. To insure this, we
believe they would give up any of their little
vagaries, save that of hearing themselves talk. It
is a strange spectacle. A. body of men mainly
called into being to accomplish a particular ob•
ject, unanimous in frustrating it. Of course,
they are not without a plausible excuse for their
conduct. Who ever heard of a knot of incapables
who were ? They are afraid of the unnecessary
depletion of the pockets of the ratepayers, and to
prevent this are content to sacrifice the health
and be accessories to the death of numbers of the
population ! What a detestable sham ! 'What
they really are afraid of, is tht appearance
of submission to the desire of the Board of Works,
which notoriously is the outfall of the sewerage
at Sea Reach. So, to gratify a miserable vanity,
they having unanimously decided on the adoption
of the Erith Marsh plan, leaving Government, if
it chooses, to furnish the means to carry the
drainage further. The result of which, it is by
no means improbable, will be the loss of an entire
year—the period when plans, &c., can be lodged
in order to Parliamentary action terminating in
November. What will the population of the
metropolis say to this ? What will the rate-
payers ? The time seems really to have arrived
when this noisy, quarrelsome lot of incapables
should be called on to resign their trust, and give
place to sensible business-like men. All the vices,
with, perhaps, one exception, of the innumerable
cliques they supplanted, seem to have been taken
up by them as an inheritance. They are half a
century behind the provincial Boards of Health,
and incapable, to all appearance, of dealing with
great questions. Where is the likelihood
of Parliament voting a large sum of money
to be spent by men like these ? Had
they adopted the Sea-Reach scheme, reduced
to the minimum, of necessary expenditure, there
can be little doubt Government, under all the
circumstances, would have lent the weight of its
influence to secure them a grant from the Consoli-
dated Fund. As matters are, a veto on the Erith
scheme must be looked for—that scheme not
merely failing to meet the necessities of the case,
but also being sure, if carried out, to involve the
metropolis in a sea of litigation. Thus, unless
our suggestion to the ratepayers be adopted, and
a period of grace be accorded by Parliament, or
and Act be passed compelling the existing Board to
carry the sewage to Sea Reach, and prescribing
the modus operandi, too, another session will pass
away, and nothing will be done ? The more the
bugbear of expenditure is examined, the more
ridiculous it will appear. What is an extra
million or two, to have the work properly
and finally done, among so many ? Besides, the
expenditure might be spread over a period of
fifty or sixty years. A hundred millions of money
were ungrudgingly spent over a practically-useless
war, and the Metropolitan Board are not
ashamed to pretend they grudge a million or two
to promote the health of between two and three
millions of the population I

ARRIVAL OF TROOPS.

A large number of the Crimean soldiers invited to the
banquet arrived in town yesterday, and this morning
trains have brought up large parties from the country.
Yesterday a body of the' troops arrived by special trains
at the terminus of the Great Southern and Western Rail-
way, comprising detachments of the 63d, 14th, 28th,
38th; 48th, 57th, 90th, 50th, 13th Light Dragoone, 57th
Regiment, and 50 sailors and marines of her Majesty's
ship Hogue, now lying in Queenstown. The soldiers
were louly cheered as they marched from the terminus
to their temporary quarters. Ninteeen privates and
one officer of the Royal Horse Artillery arrived by train
from Belfast last evening. Portions of the following re-
giments will arrive this morning :—The Bth Hussars,
13th, 47th. 88th, 50th, 21st, 3d, 46th, 62d, 68th. and
the 18th Royal Irish. The troops are to arrive in Beres-
ford-place before 12 o'clock, and to facilitate their en-
trance into the banquet-hall a temporary bridge has been
thrown over the lock leading to the inner dock. The
cavalry in garrison will form in Beresford-place, and re-
main under arms till the conclusion of the banquet.
CORK, Tuesday Morning.—A special train leaves
Cork at seven o'clock this morning, conveying the medal
men selected from this district to be present at the na-
tional Crimean banquet, which is to take place in Dub-
lin to-morrow. The detachment from this city will com-
prise 1 officer and 19 men of the Royal Artillery, 1 offl-
ceri and 25 men of the 50th Regiment, and 1 officer and
50 !sailors and marines. Four officers and 114 men from
the depots of the 14th, 28th, 38th, 47th, and 95th Re-
giments will be taken up at Buttevant. From Limerick
there will be 2 officers and 57 men of the 9th, 17th, and
39th Regiments of Foot and 13th Light Dragoons ; and
from' Terupleniore; 1 officers and 57 men of the 13th,
47th, and 88th Regiments. A large number of men from
the garrison at Fermoy will be taken up at Mallow.
Ntunbers will also be taken up at each of the stations
along the line, so that the train is likely to become a
monster one before its arrival at Dublin.
LIMERICK, Tuesday.—Fifty-seven men and three offi•
cefs of the 90,, 37th, and 17th Regiments left Limerick
this morning by the half-past seven train, to attend the
Ctiiimean banquet in Dublin, which is expected to be a
1 great military as well to festive spectacle. The men

SOUTHWARK.

AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS ON A FEMALE AND HER
HUSBAND. —Arvin Stronincer, a sweep, was brought up
n custody, charged with committing a cowardly and
brutal assault on Mary Oliver, the wife of a mechanic
residing in Gravel lane. He was also charged with
assaulting the latter while attempting to protect his wife
from his further violence.

The female complainant, who appeared so weak from
the injuries received that she could not stand, stated
that on the previous night she went into the King of
Prussia Tavern, at the corner of Union•street, with her
husband, when she saw the prisoner there and two fe-
males with whom they were acquainted. They drank
together, and about twelve o'clock witness left
the house to go home. As soon as she got into the
street some one came behind her and struck her a
heavy blow on the side of the head, which felled
her to the earth. While on the ground she
received several kicks on her body. She believed the
prisoner to be the person who assaulted her, and he was
given into custody.
Ann Carter, the wife of Joseph Carter, said be was in
the house with the complainant, aid they all drank
together. They had no words or quarrelling, but Mrs.
Oliver left them to go home. The prisoner followed her
out and knocked her down, after which he kicked her,
and he believed he would have murdered her bad not
Mrs. Oliver and her husband come to her assistance.

John Oliver, the husband of the complainant, who
supported her during the examination, stated that when
his wife left the public-house he was about to follow her
when a friend called him back to speak to him. He
then beard a loud scream outside, and on proceeding to
see what was the matter he perceived his wife lying on the
pavement calling out for help, and the prisoner kicking
her violently. He immediately seized hold of him and
pulled him away, when he struck witness several times.
A policeman came up at the time and he gave him into
custody.

In answer to the charge, the prisoner said that they
had all been drinking together, and left the public house
at the same time. He denied assaulting the complain-
ant, who might have fell down and injured herself. He,
however, was very drunk, and hardly knew what he was
about.

The Magistrate said it was a brutal assault, without
any provocation ; and, as a caution to him for the future,
he should commit him to the House of Correction for
three months, with hard labour.
