THE ADMIRALTY.

Mr. CHILDERS, in reply to Lord Elcho, with respect to
the steps the Government had taken to punish the officers
of the Admiralty, who were accused of being engaged in
an extensive system of corruption, said the question did
not accurately represent what had been stated by his right
hon. friend the Secretary fur the Admiralty. What he
stated was that he hoped the country would set its face
against those practices, and that his colleagues would do
their best to put them down. But though ho said there
had been corruption, ho did not point to any individual.
A letter had been addressed to the Admiralty by some of
the clerks engaged at Somerset-house upon the subject,
and it was in their power not to give any answer to the
letter, but it was thought best to make an exception to
the rule, and a reply was sent very much to tLe effect of
the answer he had given or was about to give. He did
not think it would be for the public service that the cor-
respondence should b 3 printed. His reply was that they
should very much regret that anything should be misun-
derstood so as to cast discredit on the public service gene-
rally. But there was no doubt whatever that corruption
did exist in the Government department of naval stores;
and papers were found upou ➢lr Gambier and Mr Rumble
which showed that the offence was nut confined to them;
but he had no hesitation in saying that the great body of
the public service was free from anything of the kind. He
must decline to give any other answer, and he hoped the
house would give them credit for the determination to do
what was in their opinion tho best for the public service.

Tat CRACOW CONTENT.

The pretty of Vienna announces that the tribunal at Cra-
cowhas confirmed the arrest of the two superiors of the con-
vent. It has likewise ordered the confessor to be set at
liberty, but the authorities being against this, be will
remain under restraint. More than half the inmates of

the convent have already been interrogated. The
Prague journals state that the commission found
an underground door when they were making
their examination, and the superior having lost the key
they had the lock forced, and found a long passage, at the
end of which were two more doors, of which the keys were
also lost. One opened on a cellar full of wine, and the
other disclosed a staircase which led to the chapel of the
convent of St. Lorette, which is inhabited by the Capuchin
friars.

THE FEIN-lAN PRISONERS.

Mr. M'Carthy Downing has paid a visit to some
of the Fenian convicts in England, and gives us the
result of his observations. He seems to have con-
vinced himself that O'Donovan Rosso, was badly treated
last year. That convict declared in the most circum-
stantial manner that in the months of June and July,
1868, he was confined in his cell, manacled by his
hands behind his back, for 35 days, from 5 o'clock
a.m. until 7 p.m. each day, his hands having been
brought to the front at meal hours, but handculel
that for 21 days ho got additional penal punishment,
three successive days on bread and water; on the
fourth the punishment was varied ; again three days'
bread and water, and so on alternately for 21 days.
But, notwithstanding the Fenian's positive assurance,
Mr. Bruce contradicts this story point blank.
O'Donovan Rosso, explains his assault on the governor
of the gaol on the theory that the penal discipline
"had driven him to desperation." Mr. M'Carthy
Downing likewise visited Richard Burke, and gives
his opinion that he was in a bad state of health.
It will be gratifying, however, to the friends
of these mild and suffering gentlemen that their
treatment is now all that the prison rules will admit
of. Their work is of the lightest character, and their
food good. Indeed, the " patriots" come off much
better than the other convicts. The Irish Times
says that the sentences of the unpardoned Fenians
will soon be considered, with a view to revising some
of them.

ARREST OF A PUGILIST.

Dillon, the pugilist, was apprehended this morn-
ing by Mr. Superintendent Potter, of the London
and South Western Railway, as he was getting into a
carriage at Waterloo to leave for Egham races, for
committing a violent assault on a gentleman on
the 25th of last July. Mr. Dillon, with other
pugilists, were returning from Stockbridge
Races, and when the train was near Andover
Junction they commenced annoying the gentlemen
who were in the carriage—a first-class compart-
ment. He was remonstrated with by one of the
gentlemen, when he caught hold of one and struck
his head against the back of the carriage, and butted
another with Lis head. He also struck another
gentleman on the nose, blacking both his eyes. Ile
was taken to the Andover Petty Sessions, where he
wiil no doubt be remanded.

I ADVERTISEMENT.I-llolloway's Pills.—The Females'
Friend.—So soon as the human functions are disordered
they should be rectified. It is a hopeless delusion to leave
the malady to its own course. A few appropriate doses
of Holloway's pills at the proper period will prevent many
a serious illness. They arrest all morbid influences and
prevent diseases from extendingand affecting more distant
organs. Their primary action is upon the blood, stomach,
liver, kidneys, and bowels. Their secondary action
strengthens the nervous centres. No drug can be at once
so harmless yet so antagonistic to disorders affecting the
other sex. The most perfect reliance may be placed on
their purifying, regulating, and renovating virtues. They
may bo safely taken by females at any age.

" Norton's Pills" act as a powerful tonic and gentle ape-
rient; are mild in their operation, safe under any cir-

THE REFORM OF TILE LICENSING SYSTEM.

On Wednesday evening a meeting was held at St.
James's Hall, under the presidency of the Archbishop
of York, in aid of the movement for the reform of
the licensing system. His grace made a very interest-
ing speech, observing that' they had to deal with
a question of great magnitude, and that
their design was to diminish the temptations to
drinking. Their immediate object was to prevent
the renewal of any existing beer-house license or the
creation of any new license. They wished to let the
present beer-house licenses die out with their holders,
so that these objectionable establishments might be
in time done away with. The Archbishop referred
to the enormous consumption of alcohol in this coun-
try yearly, and said that if equally divided it would
allow 2 gallons of pure alcohol to every man,
woman, and child annually. In a single year 320
inquests were held on persons killed by violence,
excessive drinking having contributed to every
death. Several noblemen and gentlemen interested
in the object in view afterwards addressed the meet-
ing, and it was resolved that their efforts should be
directed to the suspension of the Act of 1830.

TIIA3IES.

ATTEMPT TO MURDER A POLlCEMAN.—Frederick Pros'', 5
stout, powerful man, employed by the Great Northern
Railway Company at Poplar, was brought before Mr'
Paget charged with assaulting and wounding a policeman
named Alfred Sturgeon, 90 K.
. The constable stated that ho was on special duty Lb?
morning at two o'clock in Reeve-street, Poplar. The pri-
soner passed him in company with two men and a, women'
and said to him, "There's a - stop ; are you watching
me ?" Ho requested the prisoner to move on, and net
interfere with him or the duty he was upon. The prisoner
immediately struck him on the eye and knocked him downi
He got up and stopped the prisoner, who mad() use of
.threats, and clung him on the ground. A struggle tonic
place, they rolled over each other in the mud and dirt, no
the prisoner took a clasp knife from his pocket and at-
tempted to stab him. The struggle continued, and the
Prisoner cut his finger. By a violent effort he got the knife
from the prisoner, and assistance being rendered the p"
soner was taken into custody. The constable then Cc"
hibited his clothes, which was covered with blood all
filth. He lost a good deal of blood, his rattle was brolie°,
and he was much hurt.

Mr. Paget remanded the prisoner for a week.

THE DOUBLE MURDER AT POPLAR,

It is believed that the police aro on the track of th°
man Cooper supposed to be the murderer of his wife mad
an old man named Pearson. On Sunday afternoon °
man answering to his description, went to the racket-
office at Dover, and tried to obtain a cheap passage to C°-
lais, but was told he could get a ticket on board. I.l°
did not, however, apply on board, the police being
waiting for him. He is believed to bs the same To°
who applied to a steamer from Rotterdam bound b Affii.csl
for a berth as engineer, but his services were declined. P°
had come from Folkestone, as he was seen there on tbe,
Thursday, and had a conversation with a man who notice'
that the thumb of his loft hand was gone. The police, coast-
guard, railway stations, and shipping offices in Essex, listin
Kent, and Sussex have had information sent to them of the
supposed whereabouts of the murderer

AUSTRIA.

The South American scorabeius was applied to an extras
ordinary purpose in Edgar Poe's marvellous tale, "The Gold,
Beetle," but fashion has found a still stranger use for the
insect. At the last State ball at Vienna, the Empress oi
Austria appeared in a dress composed of the green and,
golden wings of South American scorabeii, sewn with
gold thread on a tissue of white silk. A splendid suite of
diamonds and emeralds completed this costume. If, uwe
are told, the great beauty of the Empress was set off by
such a dress, we must abandon the maxim that " beauty
unadorned is adorned the most." When people in high
places dress in this fashion, it is hopeless to expect tbd
their inferiors will not lamely copy them.

HOLBORN THEATRE.

A new drama, by Mr. Watts Phillips, entitled
" Fettered," has met with success. The plot turns
upon a young lady, who, having secretly married
a scoundrelly adventurer, whose offences have re-
sulted in transportation to a penal settlement, finds
herself unable to accept the honourable addresses of
Sir Gilbert Heron, of Graythorpe, a young baronet who
believes her to be a widow. Jasper Blythe, her husband,
having contrived to make his way back to England. The
great scene in the piece is the inundation of the old mill,
which produced the most enthusiastic applause. Miss Lydia
Foote sustained thepart of the heroine excellently, and Miss
F. Josephs as a romantic young lady showed taste and judg-
ment. The chief comic business is assigned to Mr G. Honey
and Mr. F. Drew. Mr. Parselle, as Flitter, the detective,
deserves high commendation ; and Mr. Cooper, who sup-
ported the part of Jasper with much force and effect. The
piece has been excellently mounted, and ought to prove
attractive.

GERMANY.

In his speeches on the bill for sequestrating the pro.
perty_of King George of Hanover and the ex-Elector of
Hesse, Count Bismaeck thought it necessary to
justify the conquest of Hanover in 1866. He
endeavoured to do this by comparing the late German
war with the English revolution of 1688. Unless the
Prussian Chancellor hoped to convince his audience by
one of those ingenious conundrums which compare things
by their opposite qualities, it is difficult to see the
advantage of this analogy. The two events were totally
different. One was a revolution, and the other a war of
conquest. In 16S8 the expulsion of the monarch was
by the clear desire of the people ; in 1866 the
people were not consulted, nor are they likely to be.
The new law has been published. It stipulates that the
control of the property belonging to the two princes
shall be transferred to the Prussian Government until the
culprits confess the errors of the past and give security
for the future. After their death, supposing this penance
has not been done, their relations will have the residue of
the estates. This, however, will not be much, for the
Property will be charged both with the cost of administer.
ing it and the expense of the secret police, who are now
employed in bafillng the intrigues of the ex-King and the
ex-Elector. It does not seem probable that the two
princes will make the required amen de—that they will con.
fess the error of not liking expulsion and annexation.

REPEATED CONVICTIONS.

Lord Pollington writes to the Times in reference
to the case of George Roberts, who was recently
tonvieted at douthwark raliCe-court. The prisoner
is an old offender, and the incidents of his career
furnish most convincing proofs of the errors of our
penal system. He is one of the " oldest burglars"
in England, and many years ago was cast for death,
but the sentence was commuted to transportation for
life. He received a ticket of leave, and has since been
twice transported for life and liberated with a license.
Lord Pollington asks how it is that this man's ticket
of leave has not been revoked, without a chance of
ever receiving another ?

11031 E.

The Marquis of Bute intends to spend Lent in the Holy
Land, returning to Rome by Easter. He has been received
at the Scotch College by Dr. Grant, and the correspondent
of the Post hears that he breakfasted with the Pope—st
very unusual honour for laymen to obtain. Another
English Catholic is the object of much attention in Rome
This is Archbishop Manning, whose preaching, according
to the Roman papers, attracts crowds of auditors—the
Catholics to be edified. the Protestants to be persuaded.

SPAIN.

Montpensier stock has fallen considerably in the political
market. Italian princes are very flat, and the Prince of
the Asturias and Espartero are no longer heard of. Don
Fernando is again having his turn, and is at the
top of the quotations of chances for the Spanish throne.
Some of the French journals are positive that he
will be King. But the fluctuations of the last four months
have been such that even the close of the political Bourse
may be distrusted. The partisans of Montpensier may
make a noise about French interference, and then the
Bourbon figures will mount up at once. Don Carlos con.
tinues to keep himself before the public. His secretary
has written to the Esperanza of Madrid, stating that tht‘
"King of Spain" still maintains all the rights of legti-
maey intact, and that numerous adhesions are received
every day. The "King of Spain's" secretary ought to
know most about these adhesions, but it is strange that
nobody else hears of them.
The Independance Beige hag a hew combination. The
King of Portugal is to abdicate and become King of Spain,
his son reigning in his stead under the regency of Don
•
Fernando.
