MARLBOROUGH -STREET.

STEALING A PARSEE MERCHANT'S TURBAN. —AN OLD
OFFENDER.—Wm. Burton, describing himself as a porter,
but well known to the police as a carriage thief, was
charged before Mr. D'Eyacourt with stealing from a car-
riage, in Oxford-street, a turban of the value of £lO, the
property of Sorabjeo Darashaw Captau, a Parsee merchant,
residing at 16, Holland Villas, Kensington.
The prosecutor identified the turban which was pro-
duced as his property, and stated that it cost him £lO,
having had it sent from India to him. He left it in his
carriage in Oxford-street yesterday.
George Ellaway, cabman, badge 8481, said that on the
previous night be was corning along Oxford-street on his
cab when he saw the prisoner walk round a carriage
standing at a door, and take a
parcel out of the carriage.
He told the coachman in charge of the carriage what hap-
pened, and to follow him, and they went after the prisoner,
who dropped the parcel, which was picked up by a man,
and stopped him and gave him into the custody of Hands,
374 A.

David Bourn; coachman to the prosecutor, proved going
after the prisoner on being spoken to by the cabman, and
seeing the prisoner drop the parcel.
William Allan, a labouring man, proved picking up the
parcel, containing a turban, and putting it into tho
carriage.

The prisoner said he was not in Oxford-str3ot at all.
He was coming from Ca,vendish-square, when he heard a
cry of " Stop thief !"

➢ir. D'Eyncourt asked if the prisoner was known ?
Sergeant Cole, 23 C, said there were several convic-
tions against the prisoner for similar offences.
Mr. D'Eyncourt committed the prisoner for trial.

THE POOR AT HOLYHEAD.

Mr. OWEN STANLEY asked the President of the
Poor Law Board if he had taken into his consideration the
petition from the parish of Holyhead, lately presented
to the House, together with any special report from
the Poor Law inspector of the district, Mr. Doyle,
urging the necessity of immediate legislative inter-
ference, to enforce upon the Guardians of the Holyhead
Union the building a workhouse and hospital for
the sick poor, and giving means for instruction to orphan
and pauper children in the union ; and if he would be
prepared to bring in a bill to enforce the same; and, if he
would lay upon the table of the home any report or
papers relating to the subject.
Mr. HARDY said soon after he went to the
Poor Law Board his attention had been called to
the dreadful and disgusting matters which had taken
place at Holyhead and he had, determined that
it should be the fault of Parliament and not his if the evil
was not remedied. He recommended hon. members to
read the petition, which disclosed a state of affairs of the
most horrible description. He proposed to bring in a bill

without the least delay. At present the poor law board
had power to call for the alterations of workhouses, but
there was no power to compel the guardians to build a
workhouse. Ho should have great pleasure in laying Mr.
Douglas's report on the table.
STERItING AND SAILING RULES.
Mr. HOLLAND asked the First Lord of the Admiralty
whether the attention of the Government had been called
to the existing steering and sailing rules, and whether it
was intended to cause any inquiry to be made as to their
efficiency with a view to prevent disasters arising from
collisions at sea.

Sir J. PAKINGTON said the subject was one of great
interest, but ho thought it might be that many of the acci-
dents might be attributed to the neglect of existing rules
rather than to any defects in them, lie, however, intended
to propose to the Board of Trade and the Trinity House to
see if it was not possible to render the existing rules more
simple

VIE SUN, LONFON, SATUROA I' EVENING, FEBRUARY 23, 1861.

to remove slavery by the use of the same means
they were using to prevent intemperance. Several
members of the United States Senate had recom-
mended this work. The slaveholding members of
the Senate resolved that to recommend Mr. Helper's
book was a disqualification for the office of Speaker.
So while Congress assembled at Washington,
December 5, 1859, they attempted to carry out
this resolution ; and parties were so balanced that
this book during eight weeks blocked the business
of the Senate, as every attempt to elect a Speaker
failed.

If the slaveholders would do this when face to
face with the representatives of the Free States,
what would they not do in the Slave States ?
The civil war in Kansas revealed the demoralised
condition of the non-slaveholders in the South.
Missouri represented the other Slave States in its
constituent elements. It was certain that Kansas,
governed by a majority of its citizens, would be-
come a Free State. But the non-slaveholding
Missourians, led by slaveholders, entered Kansas,
and by terror, fraud, forgery, and murder, at-
tempted to extend to that territory the reign of the
slaveholding oligarchy.

As clay in the hands of the potter, so were the
non-slaveholders in the South moulded by slave-
' holders. The former joined the latter in seven ex-
peditions within two years after the Pro-Slavery
President Pierce had entered upon his office—one
to make Sonora, against her will, an independent
republic; one to rescue Tamaulipas from the control
of her own inhabitants ; one to aid imaginary revo-
lutionists in Cuba ; one to give undesired succour
to Ireland ; one to occupy a grant of land in Costa
Rica, which Costa Rica denied ever having made ;
one to help foreigners to overthrow the national
Government of Nicaragua ; and one to perform the
same office to Lower California. All of these
paraded the American flag, and declared them-
selves missionaries of freedom, and every one of
them was made up mainly, if not wholly, of the
defenders and extenders of slavery.
I close with a short extract from a speech made in
Congress, Feb. 4, 1833, by John Quincy Adams.
He said :—" Not three days since, Mr. Clayton, of
Georgia, called that species of population (viz.,
slaves) the machinery of the South. Now that
machinery had twenty odd representatives in that
hall, not elicited by the machinery, but by those
who owned► it. And if he should go back to the
history of this Government from its founda-
tion, it would be easy to prove that its deci-
sions had been affected in general by less
majorities than that. Nay, he might go
further, and insist that that very representation
had ever been the ruling power of this Govern-
ment." How terribly has the South been cor-
rupted—how deep has been its degradation 1 But
the darkness is passing away ; slowly but surely it
is being regenerated ; and it will yet leap for joy,
becaus slavery and its evils, which rested like an
incubus on all its energies, have been removed no
more to return.—Yours very truly,
Bristol, Feb. 19, 1867. EDWARD MATHEWS,

IMPORTANT CONVICTIONS.—WARNING TO PAWNBROKERS.
—Louis Lodblinier, a foreign Jew, carrying on the business
of a licensed pawnbroker at No. 117, Kerby street, Poplar,
appeared before Mr. Paget to answer live summonses,
charging the defendant with as many infractions of the
bOth section of the Metropolitan Police Force Act, 2 and
3 Vict., cap. 47, which prohibits all pawnbrokers in the
police district purchasing, receiving, or taking in pawn
any pledge, goods or chattels, from any person apparently
under 16 years of age.
Mr. Richard Ring, solicitor, appeared for the defendant.

of the stolen
,The complainant in this case, Sarah Rance, is the wife
of a carpenter and joiner, dwelling in Poplar ; and it is
their misfortune to have a dishonest son under 16 years
of age, and apparently not more than 14, who had been

at the
December last he pawned a saw, on the 15th of last month
a plane, on the 24th of the same month a shawl, on the
6th of the present month an iron, and lastly on the Bth
instant another shawl. The boy, who was the principal
witness, said that the defendant's wife received the articles
and lent money upon them. Re was never asked any
questions about his age or anything cis,.
Mrs. Rance, the complainant, said the duplicates relating
to the stolen property were found under her son's pillow.
She waited on Mrs. Losblinier on Monday evening last,
and expostulated with her for taking in goods from her
son, and she said she could take anything of a boy or fool
over twelve years of age.
Mr. Ring said that was so under the 21st section of the
pawnbrokers' act, but the police act extende,l the ago to 16.
Mr. Paget said the police act had been many years in
operation, and must bo generally known to every pawn-
broker.
Mr. Rirg then called a boy in the service of the defen-
dant, who swore positively that his mistress asked the boy
Rance on every occasion when she received anything from
him if he was 16 years of age, and he always replied in the
affirmative. . . _

Mr. Ring argued that the principal witness against the
defendant was, on his own confession and upon the state-
ment of his mother, a thief, and that his evidence was not
to be depended upon. On the other hand, the boy called
for Mr. Losblinier was a person of untainted character,
whose testimony ought to bo preferred to that of a dishonest
lad who robbed his own parents.

Mr. Paget had no doubt whatever the defendant and his
wife knowingly violated the provisions of a very wholesome
statute, and he had as little doubt that the statement made
by the defendant's boy was utterly untrue. There were
five cases, and ho should convict the defendant in the miti-
gated penalty of 40s. in each case, and 10s. costs. The
total amount which the defendant would have to pay
would be 10 guineas.
The money was paid.
Mr. Rance—We will give up the goods, and not put Mr.
and Mrs. Ring to any more trouble.

which to glory. Moreover, the miserable multipl

cation of our colleges so reduces the number of me❑
from whom a college crew can be picked that the
English would have as great an advantage over the
American boats as their countrymen in the an-
tipodes had over ours. The odds would certainly
be in favour of Oxford and Cambridge; but, on
the one hand, by its victory in an international
university race, Yale or Harvard would gain such
glory as neither has opportunity to win at home ;
and, on the other, there could be no ignominy in
defeat at the hands of such doughty antagonists.

We write without special knowledge of the con-
dition of next season's crews either at Yale
or llarvard. The commodores, however, by
this time probably know pretty well what
material they have to work with for the fall
races, and if, on comparing notes, each
finds that he can do credit to his Alma Mater,
they cannot do better than proceed to challenge the
English university crews to two matches, to be
pulled on either side of the water, during the next
and the following summer vacations. It is unfortu-
nate that the commencements and class meetings
are held too late in the season to permit any steps
being taken in them, but the navies are prosperous
both at Yale and Harvard, and there can be little
doubt that the alumni of the two colleges, at least
the boating-men among them, would willingly
relieve the commodores of as much of the expense
of the expedition as should be necessary. The
challenge has long been talked about in a vague
way, especially at the time of the Worcester
regattas, for several years past ; and there is no
reason why it should not at last be made, since, we
presume, the faculties would interpose no difficulties.
Defeat is, of course, among the possibilities, but if
Harvard is capable of such pulling as last year's,
and Yale as that of the year before, it is not likely.
At all events they would have less discouragements
to face than those over which our countrymen in
China passed triumphantly ; and we hope our col-
lege oarsmen will " make a note on" the demonstra-

tion upon the other side of the world that Ameri-
can pluck and gallantry can be more creditably
vindicated than by heavy betting, fast horses, or
yachts from the best builders and sailed by the most
skilful masters and crews that money can pro-
cure. A French and English international
regatta is being arranged to be held at Paris this
summer, and, although at the season when it is
likely to take place undergraduates will be in the
middle of their term, there is no reason why some
of the crews which in past time have won laurels
for their colleges should not reassemble and be sent
as a much more sensible American deputation than
was proposed by the admirers of the New York
Seventh Regiment.—The Round Table.
