CORRUPTION IN AUSTRALIA.

flee Melbourne Parliament has been endeavouring to
clear the Legislature from corruption ; but the people of
Victoria are determined that they will not be purified.
Some time ago the Assembly or Lower House set a special
committee to work to investigate certain charges, and
the result 'vas that a Mr. Jones was expelled
for receiving money for parliamentary purposes, and
a Mr. Butters was ousted for disbursing the money
of others in bribing members. Will it be believed ?—both
these men were re-elected by their respective constituen-
cies. Two opposing candidates made a good fight it is true,
but they were beaten by the members who had been con-
victed of bribery, and thus corruption received the
deliberate sanction of the people. Two other members
were committed to prison for bribery, but they managed
to get out again by means of an objection to the warrant.
The,MeMourne Argus admits that the Assembly has been
completely foiled in its efforts to punish corruption ; but it,
nevertheless, comforts itself with the thought that secret
service money has had its day.

TILE CYCLONE IN BENGAL.

Tia second of the two hurricanes which visited Dengal—
on the l6th of May and the of June—was very debtrnc-
tive, but far inferior in -violence to the terrible atorms of
1864 and leti7. The plantains and the pan leaf, which is
chewed with the bet,l nnf-., were ruined, but the other
crops escaped. At Calcutta businees was entirely sns-
pended. Few merchants were able to reach their Places
of linsines4, and those who did found themselves minus
their native employ's. The roof of the Lock Hos-
ptal fell in, killing two women and wounding
nine others. Trees were blown down, brick houses
were injured, and huts were generally levelled with the
ground wherever they were not sheltered. The shipping
rode out with few casualties, but cargo boats were swept
away, and some lives must have been lost, in the country
the huts of the peasantry were blown down in all direc•
Cons, except where they were protected by thick trees.
No news of shipping disasters had come in when the mail
left. One paper asserts that 10,000 lives were lost by the
first cyclone—that of May 16th.

THE ENGLISH IN JAPAN.

The two English officers who were recently insulted in
Japan are Captain Chandos Stanhope, of H.M.S. Ocean,
senior naval officer, end Mr. Russell Robertson, Vice-
Consul at Yedo and Yokohama. They were compelled to
dismount in deference to some native dignitary. As the
principle of our officers bowing down to Japanese nobles
is not a recognised portion of our foreign policy, the
British Minister has made strong representations, and by
this time no doubt an apology has been offered. These
T)e9ple are alway. "y to apologise, but they are also
!•.-"ys reatly to commit the offence again.

IitYSTAL PA LA CE. —The GRAND DI S-
‘..) PLAY of FIREWORKS and ILLUMINATION
of FOUNTAINS in honour of the VICEROY of
EGYPT will be REPEATED on the same scale of mag-
nificence on THURSDAY next, 15th July. The Pyro-
technic Programme, which will be carried out by the
Company's Pyrotechnists, Messrs. C. T. Brock and Co , of
Nunhead, will include the Sister Magnesium Balloons—
Illumination of the whole of the Grounds and the Water
Temples by Coloured Fires (a really grand effect, and one
simply unattainable elsewhere)—Great Set Pieces—the
immense Cascade of Fire (flanked by gigantic palm-trees),
throwing its glittering spray over an area of nearly fifteen
thousand feet—Batteries of Guns and Roman Candles—
Descent of Fiery Comet, &c., &c.
A Military Band will perform during the display.
The display of the 29th ult.—the prototype of this—
called forth the following notices in the press:—
"The set pieces were of unprecedented splendour, and
the whole of the pyrotechny was of such excellence as to
throw into the shade all recollections of previous displays."
—Daily Telegraph, June 30.
"Nothing in the fancy of poets, or in the dreams of the
authors of the 'Arabian Nights,' could equal the glory of
light that, green end gold and red and white, suddenly
brought into relief every portion of the grounds, and played
in waves of colour on the glass of the Palace itself
The final bouquet, or girandole of rockets, has never been
excelled in Europe, and threw completely into the shade
even those displays that are made in Paris on the Napo-
leon Fete."—Morning Herald, June 30.
" The fireworks were of the most splendid des'cription ;
the exhibition was a great FUCCC'SS, and the whole arrauge-
ments were highly satisfactory."—Morning Post, June 35.

PRICE OF GOLD.

the quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
ie short exchange on London is 25i. Vic. per £1 sterlin,
)n comparing these rates with the English Mint price of
e 3 iis. iold. per ounce for standard gold, it appe4rs that
gold at the above price is dearer in London than in Paris.

THAMES.

ThIPUDENT ASSAULT ITPON A POLICE INSPECTOR.— Wil-
ham Innings, a seaman, aged 35 years, was brought before
Mr. Benson, charged with violently assaulting Inspector
Rouse of the K division in Shadwell.

The inspector was engaged in very urgent business, and
he was met by the prisoner, who demanded in a very per-
emptory tone that he should go to a house of bad repute
and demand some clothes ho bad left there as a security
for money, or rather for a debt he had contracted for an
immoral purpose. The inspector told the prisoner
he was engaged, and the prisoner to speak
to the ordinary police constable of the beat.
The prisoner commenced swearing at and abusing the In-
spector, who told the prisoner he was an insulting black-
guard, and told him to go about his business, and not in-
teger° with the police. The prisoner immediately turned
the inspector about, and treated him with indignity. At
last the prisoner struck the inspector with his fist, and
told him to take that. Mr. Rouse immediately took tho
prisoner into custody.

In defence the prisoner said he wanted the clothes he
deposited at a house of ill fame.

Mr. Benson—Yes, you wanted a respectable officer to
do your dirty work, and because he refused, and very
properly so, you insult him and assault him. Tho pi i-
soner said he had soot home a portion of his wages to
Barnstaple in North Devon, and ho was goi g down to
his native town with the remainder. Mr. Benson had a
good mind to fine the prisoner for his impudent assault on
the inspector, and leave him no money to carry to Barn-
staple. The assault was a most infamous one, and he
sentenced the prisoner to ton days' imprisonment and
hard labour.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 13, 1869.

every effort is being matte to ontain an alteration 'a
the law, which refuses to them the right of
prosecuting a• defaulting secretary. There seems
to be little hope of Mr. Hughes's bill being
carried through this session, especially as the
Government has determined to deal thoroughly
with the matter next year. Meanwhile, however, it
is felt that it would be injusticeto leave matters as they
now stand, and on Saturday a conference of barristers
and others interested in the question, among whom
were Mr. Frederick Harrison, Mr. Wright, Mr. God-
frey Lushington, and Mr. R. Applegarth (secretary to
the Amalgamated Carpenters and Joiners' Society),
was held in chambers at the Temple, for the
purpose of framing a bill to be introduced in the
present session, having for its object the protection
of the funds of trades unions. The whole question
was discussed at length, and a bill containing one
clause protecting the funds of the societies and
punishing embezzlement of them was framed, and
it was resolved to hand it to Mr. Rathbone, 31. P. for
Liverpool, who is to ask a question of the Govern-
ment on the subject to-day, for introduction at
an early date into the House of Commons for Pas-
sage this session.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE WITH " BEETLE POWDER."-Emily
Delinnente, of 101, Ladbury-road, was charged before
Mr. D'Eyncourt with attempting to commit suicide by
taking "beetle powder."
From the evidence of E. Holder, 61 E, it appears that
on Saturday afternoon he was called to a shop in Great
Portland-street and told the prisoner had taken poison in
gingerbeer. He went after her and told her he should
take her to the hospital, but she refused to go. He, how-
ever, took her, and found that she had taken poison—.
" beetle powder"—and she said she would do it again.
The prisoner said she did not say she would do it again,
and that she took the poison through trouble. She was
separated from her husband.
Mr; D'Eyncourt remanded her.

ROBBERY AT A RESTAURANT.—Mary 314 Grady, a young
woman, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt, with steal-
ing a quantity of wearing apparel, the property of
Mr. Louis Planton, restaurant keeper, of No. 115, Ryder's-
court, and also of Mt. Masshoe, a lodger.
The prisoner was temporarily employed by Mr. Planton
in the absence of his servant from illness, and the prisoner
went away without giving notice, taking with her a large
quantity of wearing apparel belonging to her master and
a lodger.

Walker, a plain clothes officer of the 0 division, proved
apprehending the prisoner in Drury lane last night, and
finding that the property had been pledged at different
pawnbrokers.

Some articles baying been produced by:a pawnbroker's
assistant, and identified by the prosecutors, Mr. D'Eyn-
court, at the request of Sergeant Gould, 14 0, remanded
the prisoner, who had nothing to say.

THE DEMONSTRATION ON BLACKHEATH.

The Protestant demonstration on Blackheath
was by no means dull. From 2,000 to 3,000
is the number estimated as present, and of
this gathering a considerable proportion—
without being more precise as to a majority or a
minority—was hostile to the purposes of the meeting.
While some wanted to denounce Mr. Gladstone and
abuse Mr. Bright, others were there to proclaim
them to be the best of statesmen. The result was
uproar, confusion, howling, yelling, and some little
fighting. Even the Standard admits the meeting to
have been a failure, and attributes its non-success to
the lukewarmness of some of the Conservatives
present. There were no resolutions put,
and only one complete speech made. One
of those who helped to arrange matters writes
giving his opinion of the cause of the failures. Ile
thinks it was impossible, in so short a time as was
given, to get up anything like a good demon-
stration. " Nevertheless (he adds), I can assure
our Protestant friends that no discouragement
is likely to ensue from this failure ; for, with
sufficient time to organise, with judicious manage.-
ment, we feel sure we can at any future period draw
together 100,000 good and true Protestants in the
vicinity of the metropolis, to support the House of
Lords in the constitutional course they are pursuing
against the Irish Church Confiscation Bill."
If the Conservatives had not great success they has
their laureate, and if they had few speeches they had
their ballad. A truly Protestant song was given
to the people. here is a specimen of its genius :
"Against fell dissensions
The work of a band
Whose Lilfral pretensions
Would dismember the land.
Against such declaimers
As Beale;, Potter, and Bright
Our Church's defamers,
Let's meet in our might.
To stay thelr aggressions,
Now on Church, next on State;
Judge their professions
By their actions of late."
A few such ballads as these judiciously circulated
among the populace would " stay Liberal aggressions"
indeed. The rhythm is so swinging, the language
so choice, that no one could help being convinced by
the sentiment.

THE COBDEN CLUB DINNER.

What the Liberal party owe to Mr. Cobden for his
teaching, perhaps very few members of it calculate;
but it is satisfactory to find that they give honour to
him. The dinner on Saturday was attended by a
Cabinet Minister—the Duke of Argyll—and by a
large number of the rank and file of the Liberal
members. What an influence Mr. Cobden
has had on the public men of the present
day may be gathered from the speech of
the Duke of Argyll, who gave it as his
opinion that the changes apparent in our states-
men were produced mainly by the policy which
the deceased politician had advocated. The Duke
went on to give his unqualified adhesion to
Mr. Cobden's policy, saying that ho did not
think it could be too extensively enforced.
Mr. John Stuart Mill said much to the same effect.
His remarks about America, that the principles of
Free Trade there were now well established; it would
be impossible for her to go backward in the matter;
and that, as these principles became generally spread
abroad, it would be impossible to sow dissension be-
tween the United States and England, were received
with loud cheers. M. Chevalier gave reply to some
criticisms on Mr. Cobden :
" It had been said that Mr. Cobden was a man with
but one idea, that Free Trade was the Alpha and Omega
of his whole life. Those who entertained such a notion
respecting the objects and aims of the life of his
lamented friend could not have properly known him.
Mr. Cobden was, on the contrary, a man of large
ancl comprehensive feelings, and Free Trade WAS only one
step towards the grand whole which he desired to
accomplish. Mr. Cobden's desires were the welfare of
mankind, the good understanding of nations generally,
and the amity of all civilised nations. Mr. Cobden looked
for Free Trade because he saw that it gave liberty to
industry ; and he opposed Protection because it was a
species of tyranny and oppression, and was productive of
no good to the country. Mr. Cobden was also opposed to
the militaryism of nations, which had of late unfortunately
sprunginto existence, and it was to be regretted that that
opposition had had no very effective or satisfactory results
up to the present."

UNPROVOKED ASSAULT —John Brake, plasterer, was
charged with assaulting John Hart, a carpenter.
The prosecutor, who had a bad black and cut eye, said
that on tho previous evening he was in his garden, at
Mason's-grove, Chelsea, watering the plants, when the
prisoner, who had frequently annoyed him, jumped over
into the garden and struck him a severe blow, inflicting
the injuries described.
Police-constable Manly, 71 T, deposed that he took the
prisoner into custody. He was the worse for drink, and
very violent.
Prisoner pleaded intoxication as a defence.
Mr. Arnold said it was a most unprovoked assault. The
prisoner would be sent to the House of Correction for 14
days with hard labour.
Prisoner (smiling) Thank you, sir.

THE FENIAN PRISONERS.

Another demonstration intended to be grand and
imposing has failed ignominiously. The great meet-
ing held at Mallow, on Sunday, to denounce the
Attorney-General for his speech on the Fenian
prisoners, was not attended by a thousand persons.
Though the Attorney-General was certainly de-
nounced, the meeting was rather one of sympathy
with the prisoners than against the Government.
No person of influence attended, and the proceedings
went off quietly.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

BOW-STREET.

EMBEZZLEMENT BY A CLERK. William Kynaston, a clerk
in the employ of Mr. Tebb, auctioneer, High Holborn, vrss
brought up on remand charged with embezzlement.
From the evidence it niveared that the prisoner's dal
was, amonst other things, to collect the rent of certaia
house property belonging to his employer in various parts
of the metropolis and the suburbs. In a number of cases
it was proved that he had received the money and given
the proper receipt; but he had not properly entered the
amount in his own book, neither had he accounted for it
in any way.

The prisoner said he had been taken into custody sud-
denly and his books taken from him, so he had not had au
opportunity of making up his accounts. He admitted there
was a balance against him, but that he had promised to
pay when it was clearly made out what it was.
Mr. Vaughan said he should direct the books to be sub-
mitted to the prisoner previous to his trial. He would,
however, have no objection to take two good bail to th°
amount of .£4O each for his appeal once at the sessions.
The prisoner said that he would procure the necessarY
sureties.

THE CHARGE AGAINST THE DIRECTORS OF THE ENGLISII
JOINT-STOCK BANK.—To-day Mr. Samuel G. Finney, the
manager of the English Joint-Stock Bank, Mr, James
Abbiss, Mr. Thomas Bradshaw, and Mr. E. Mangles, were
again in attendance befo:e the Lord Mayor to meet the
charge preferred against them of publishing a false
balance-sheet.

The proceedings consisted mainly of the further e%-
amination of Mr. Howell, the accountant, with a viow of
showing the purposes to which the money advanced for
the purposes of the tank Lad been applied, and also tie
amount of interest the defendants had in the bank. The
case was again adjourned.

CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

PARIS, THURSDAY, May 20.

Brief accounts of electoral troubles in the provinces eon-,
inue to reach us. There has been a slight political
lemonstration at Marseilles—the only wonder being that
there has not been an outbreak at this place before. M.
;ambetta, who is standing with great chance of
success for the Ist Paris circumscription, is like-
vise a candidate for Marseilles. Now, although
aublic meetings are no longer allowed, private meetings,
,o which each of the audience receives en invitation to
L dinner or ball, may yet be held. M. Gambetta was
?resent at one of these on Wednesday evening, and, on
caving, the guests, strongly reinforced by the street mob,
.ormed themselves into bands and prom?,naded the
streets—of course singing the " Marseillaise." Several
arrests were male ; but it does not transpire
;hat the crowd and the authorities came into
:ollision. 11fore serious was the arf::ir in the Ando depart-
neat, which I mentioned yesterd,ly. It appears that
some of the partisans of the rival candidates—MM.
rereire and Guiraud—met in one of the Limon' corn-
mines and indulged in an angry alt.,rcation. One of the
Cereireitcs insulted a Guiraudite, whereupon the latter
•eplied with a couple of knife stal,s. Two individuals
were wnundcil, one seriously. This is the " riot
ttteuded with bloodshed," which we were at fir?,t led to
suppose was a regular pitched battle. There have been
slight disturbances likewise at Bourgcs and the Puy-de-
Dome. Both these places arc in Central France, and the
Aude is in the extreme South, so that the excitement
,lovers a good deal of ground. But whatever there may
be to come, the riots hitherto have not been
very formidable. Even the official who was so severely
wounded at the Cirque Napoleon affair this day week is
:toming round rapidly.
