with an impudent attempt at robbery and a violent
attack on the prosecutor.
Mr. John Griggs, the proprietor of the British
Queen beerhouse, in East-street, Walworth, deposed
that on the night before, at about 10 o'clock, he went
to the upper part of his house to see that all was
right, and on opening the door of his bedroom,
which was on the second floor, he found the pri-
soner standing by a chest of drawers, with one of
the drawers pulled out. He asked him what he
did there, and the prisoner replied that he had mis-
taken the place for the club-room, and was about
to start out, when he (witness) seized him. The
prisoner upon his doing so made a desperate attack
on him, and twisted both his hands so tightly in
his neckcloth that he taus: have been strangled had
not his potman and another come promptly to his
assistance. He was on the ground quite over-
powered and exhausted by the violence of the pri-
soner, and had not assistance reached him at the
moment he would have been a dead man.
P.lico-constable John West, 185 P, said he
searched the prisoner, and found on him the two
skeleton keys produced. He also examined the
bedroom, and on the floor found a piece of wax-
candle and some silent matches.
The prisoner, who cross-examined, the witnesses
with the tact of an old practitioner, was remanded,
Mr. Norton directing that in the interim he should
be seen by the detectives.

WOOLWICH.—John Horlook, an officer's
servant, and belonging to the East Kent Militia,
stationed at Woolwich, was charged with being
concerned, with four soldiers not in custody, in the
following outrage.
it appeared that about 11 o'clock on the previous
night Police-constable Cogger, 443 R, found a num-
ber of women near an oyster-shop in Beresford-
street, surrounded by four men belonging to the
Military Train, and the prisoner, who was in private
clothes. A disturbance being created, the officer at-
tempted to disperse them, when the prisoner struck
hire a violent blow over the eye with a whip, and
then made his escape. The four soldiers then drew
their side arms and cut the constable's hat from his
head, and were proceeding to further acts of
violence towards him when police-constable Anders
263 R, came to his assistance. Both constables
pro:luced their truncheons in self- defence, but the
soldiers cut these instruments of protection with
their swords, and then made off.
Mr. Inspector Dine having informed his worship
that the soldiers were known, and that their con-
duct would be inquired into by their own officers,
Mr. Seeker ordered the prisoner to pay a fine of
403., or to be imprisoned with hard labour for one
mouth.

EAST INDIA.(ARMY REGULATION).

On the motion of aljournment till Monday,
Mr. FAGAN called the attention of the Secretary of
the Board of Control to the army regulation made by
the Governor General of India in Council in 1855, which
requires that the children of soldiers over four years of
age should be sent to the regimental schools, in order to
entitle such soldiers to draw for each child subsistence
money of five shillings per month, and to ask whether,
during the last year, any modification or alteration
of that regulation had been made so as to allow the Ro-
man Catholie•soldiers now serving in India, who con-
scientiously object to send their children to these regi-
mental rchooli, to have theth educated in schools of their
own faith without the forfeiture of their subsistence
money ; and to ask further, if no such modifidation has
been made, whether it Wll9 the intention of tier Majesty's
present Government to afford that just relief to the con-
sciences of Roman Catholic soldiers now serving their
e)ut.try in India.

Mr. IL DAILLIE said that so far as he could learn
Ino alterations had been made in the Indian regnlation
referred to, which wag identical to that of the English
army. (Hoar, hear.) He thought the regulation re-
ferred to answered the purposes the hon. member bad
in view.

Mr. MAGUIRE said the regulation did not give
freedom of action to the private soldier. Ile was under
the power of his superiors, for with them rested his
promotion, and he need not state how grievous a posi-
tion he was placed in with a proselytising colonel or
major,
The subject dropped.

"We never commence the perusal of works on this malady with-
out preparing ourselves to meet most appalling descriptions of human
sufferings. It was, therefore, a most agreeable surprise to us to
find this error (as It appears to us) carefully avoided in this work,
and the subject treated in a common sense, and truly practical
manner. . . . No medical man should undertake the treatment
of Spermatorrhcea without first consulting this work."—Medleal

BETTING AT MANOIIESTER.—FAIDAY.
The Northamptonshire Meeting, which commences OR
TuesdaTnext, i the first legittuate meeting of the year,
and although much untimely raoiog has already been
got through, little has been done to give an impetus to
the betting upon the Spring Handicaps, none, of the
heroes that nave recently performed having figured suf-
ficiently to give any clue to the probable results of the
several great events that are now about to take place in
rapid succession. The first is the Northamptonshire
Stakes, run for on Tuesday next, and for that race a
great many horses havo been quoted, and their Ruetna•
ttrms in prices have been numerous;. Mat *to find the
" pea" seems to be no ordinary task. prices that
are offered against some of the candidates are outrageous.
To-daa C:143 Tack had the call of anything, is the race,
after advanping from 20 to 1 to NO to 7, takentfreely.
Those odds `would have been taken about either' Misty
Moro or ZuyderZ.le ; The Dupe receded from 140 to 8
,to 100 to 6, offered, and Costrel declined to .a 5 to 1,
offend. Palmister was backed last evening to win a
good stake at 20 to 1, but that price to day, was not
accepted. Eight horsei were snuimarily disposed_ of, the
names f which we bare given below, by 100 to .4
being
laid against any of then winning. Toxophelite was
much inquired after for the Derby, and wits supported
at 100 CO 8. 3to 1 would have been taken to money
that either be or his stable companion The Peer wins
the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes. For the Cheater
Cup Adamas declined 15 to Ito 25 to 1. Botany was
the only hone in demand for this event, and closed at
20 to 1 (t. freely). 200 to
.9, would have been taken
about The Pier. Gammon was a littlo is treOttest, ittik

A DELICATE QUESTION.-9. legal question of a
delicate nature is now exciting extraordinary interest in
Westphalia,—viz., whether a husband has a right to
open his wife's letters. The question arose out of a suit
for divorce, • instituted by the husband, in which he ob-
tained a deeree ; but the conclusive piece of evidence
was a letter from the Lothario, addressed to the wife,
and the contents of which would never have been known
had not the husband been so ungallant as to break the
seal., The divorced wife at once prosecuted him for
opening the letter, and the tribunal of Unne has decided
that he was wrong, and has sentenced him to'a fink of ten
tinders. . An appeal is pending, the reselt of which is
anxiously watched by the public.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR, —I have seen in a French paper an article, trans-
lated from the Court Journal, stating that a son cf the
late pretended Duke of Devonshire claims the titles and
estates which his father was allowed to enjoy, since
which a copy of the article which appeared has been
forwarded to me. To that article I beg to reply, and
request to insert the same in your journal.
The late Lord George Cavendish (my father) married
my mother in the year 1780. She was a Catholic. The
marriage was first performed agreeably to the rites of
the Protestant Church ; secondly, by a Catholic priest,
according to the rites of the Catholic Church. The cer-
tificates of the marriages are in my possession, properly
and duly attested by four witnesses.
The late Lord George Cavendish (my father) was
perfectly aware of the late pretended duke having been
substituted in the place of a girl. His would-be father
never had a eon, and Lord George allowed the said son
to enjoy the titles and estates of his soi-disant father
during his life.
The pretended duke may have broken his promise,
and contracted a secret marriage, and his son may new
come forth and lay claim to the titles and estates of his
father ; no law prevents this, but the law does and will
prevent his entering into possession of the property to
which his father had no legal claim.
I am willing to give to this son (if he exists) all the
real benefits attached to his birth ; but the claims be
sets up can never be justified in the presence of the
facts above stated.

I hare in my possession all the necessary documents
and papers, duly attested, to prove the substitution of
the pretended duke, and no time will be lost to place
them before the competent tribunals, with the firm per-
suasion that justice will be given to qui de droit.
I am not a young man, have no family, but a dearly
beloved wife, to whom I forward this for insertion.
The title of duke has few charms for me, but I will
never suffer that title and the estates attached to it to
fall into the hands of those who have no just claims to
enjoy them.—l am, sir, your obedt. servant,
HENRY CAVENDISH.
