LATEST PARTICULARS THIS DAY.

The unfortunate disagreement was brought to a
crisis this morning. The directors remained firm
to the terms of the above circular, and the conse-
quense was that the firemen and drivers refused
to resume work this morning. Such a circum-
stance, of course, caused the greatest ,inCOl3;
venieuce ; but the directors called all the available'
resources of the locomotive superintendents de-•
partmentinto requisition, and they were thus en-
abled to prevent the entire suspension of traffic on
the line.' The great object with the directors
was to keep the main lino open, and in
this they succeeded, but the trains were, of course,
all delayed, and the mail bags from the different
stations were not all delivered at the Post-office at
12 o'clock. The suburban traffic suffered the
greatest amount of inconvenience ; and the immense
number of gentlemen, holders of annual tickets,
were unable, in many cases, to reach their offices
until 12 o'clock at noon. The Crystal Palace
traffic was damaged materially, as with the limited
means at the command of the company they were
compelled to make the despatch of trains in that
direction according to circumstances. The com-
mencement of the races to-day at Epsom brought
an immense number of persons to the statio], but
they were compelled to avail themselves of the
facilities presented by the South-Western Railway,
and thus a great strain was put on the arrangements
of that company.
The arrival and departure platform at London-
bridge presented a very unusual appearance in con-
sequence of the unusual number of engine-drivers
and firemen, many of whom formed themselves into
little groups, and discussed the matters in dispute.
At about one o'clock to-day the attendance became
so large that orders were given to clear the plat-
forms of all persons not holding tickets, and thus
the questions under discussion by the various groups
were at once put an end to. Whether matters will
be arranged during the day is more than doubtful,
as the directors seem determined to adhere to their
proposal, and the men themselves say they will•not
return to work until their demands are conceded.

THE JAMAICA PROSECUTION.

PROCEEDINGS AGAINST EX-GOVERNOR EYRE.
MARKET DRAYTON, Monday.
The proceedings against ex-Governor Eyre were
commenced this morning before a special bench—
Sir Baldwin Leighton, M.P., Colonel G. T. Hill,
Egerton Harping, Esq., Major Broughton,- Henry
Reginald Corbet, Esq., and John Tayleur, Esq.
Mr. Fitzjames Stephen and Mr. T. Horne Payne
instructed by Mr. Shaen (Shaen and Roscoe, solici-
tors to the Jamaica Committee), appeared on the
part of the prosecutioti'; and Mr. John Anderson
Rose, solicitor, attended on behalf of Mr. Eyre.
The court was much crowded. •

At the sitting of the Court Mr. Twemlow, the
senior magistrate, said that having subscribed to the
Eyre Defence Fund he did not think it right to act
as a magistrate. The ordinary bench had requested
Sir Baldwin Leighton to attend, and he would pre-
side.

Mr. Fitzjames Stephen sail he had to apply for
warrant, on the part of Mr. John Stuart Mill, the
member for Westminster, against Mr. Edward John
Eyre, the late Governor of Jamaica, for the murder
of George William Gordon, at 11orant Bay, Jamaica,
on the 23d of October, 1865. The learned counsel
was proceeding to go over the same line of argu-
ment as he adopted at Bow-street police-court re
Nelson and Brand, when the Chairman stopped
him, as the bench thought that the whole of the
matter would more properly be before them if the
warrant was granted. Mr. Stephen had better,
therefore, call evidence as to the facts.

Mr. Fitzjames Stephen then called the following
evidence

Dr. Alexander Fiddes (examined by Mr. Stephen)
said—l am a member of the Royal College of Sur-
geons at Edinburgh. '1 kneW the late George Win.
Gordon. I believe him to have been condemned to
death on no proper evidence to-warrant such an act.
I believe it to have been illegal, and to have been
murder in the contemplation of law, and those who
were connected with it. I believe 11r. Edward John
Eyre was a party to it. Mr. Edward John Eyre
was the late Governor of Jamaica. Gordon was a
civilian.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A CANDID THlEF.—Joseph Parker, an artful-
looking young fellow, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with having in his possession a shawl,
supposed to be stolen.

Police-constable Groves, 83 F, deposed to seeing
the prisoner running through Monmouth-court with
a shawl (produced) under his arm, and on stopping
him, and asking him where he got it from be at
first said it belonged to his mother, and then said
he picked it up.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—Do you wish to say anything,
prisoner ?
The Prisoner—The fact is this—l saw the shawl
fall off the back of a young woman, who was drunk,
and I picked it up, and ran off with it.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—Well, that is candid, at all events.
I shall remand you for a fewdays, to give the police
an opportunity of finding the owner of the shawl.
London, England, 1867-03-19

THAMES.

AUDACIOUS ROBBERY.—George Walker, a deter-
n.ined-looking fellow, about 20 years of age, was
brought before Mr. Paget charged with the following
daring robbery : •
Mr. Alfred Watts, manager to Mr. Henry Watts,
boot and shoemaker, 64, Church-lane, Whitechapel,
stated that between half-past four and five o'clock
yesterday afternoon he was standing in the parlour
behind the shop and saw the prisoner enter the shop
and pull down four seal skins, and with so much
force that he dragged the nail away to which they
were made fast. The prisoner rushed out of the
shop with the skins. He followed him directly
and was soon close upon the prisoner, who re-
lieved himself of the weight of the skins by
throwing them down, and ran to the end of Church-
lane, where he crossed the road. The prisoner,
finding he could not escape, made an attempt to
strike him, but he parried the blow and struck the
prisoner. The four skins were worth £3 10s. He
produced one of them of large size, and said the
others were similar.
P. W. Dunaway, a detective police sergeant, said
he saw the prisoner and the prosecutor engaged in a
struggle. He seized the prisoner, who said " You
to a police constable when he once has
need not hold me so tight. I never give any trouble
hold of me." He replied—" I hope you will
not give me any trouble for I am not prepared
for you, but I don't mean to let you go." He was
sorry to say that Mr. Watts had been repeatedly
robbed in a similar manner.
The Prisoner—Did you not see the gentleman
hit me?
Dunaway—No, I did not, indeed.
The prisoner made no defence, and Mr. Paget
committed him for trial.

TREASURE TROVE.—An extensive and extra-
ordinary discovery of treasure trove (Spanish pillar
dollars) has been made on the sea beach, midway between
West Hartlepool and Seaton Carew, opposite to a farm
known as Carr House. The recent severe weather and
heavy sea has been the cause of all the surface sand being
washed from the beach at this locality, and for upwards of
a mile along the shore layers of peat and pebbles alone
form the surface of the coast, and it is in the midst of the
peat that the singular discovery hob,len untde.

rrHE BOARD of MANAGEMENT of the

call the attention of their friends t its position—during the
past year the beds have been almost constantly filled, and
the drain on be resources of the Hospital has consequently
been great. They trust, therefore, that all the friends of
hog ce pathy, bath in town and country, will rally round
them, and thus prevent the necessity of curtailing the use-

Exhibition of Modern Pictures.

A very interesting exhibition of modern pictures
of the highest class, Eng and foreign, is now
open at M'Lean's new gallery, 7, Haymarket. The
paintings forming the colle3t of came from the
hands of such I:ll.ities as W. P. Frith, Stanfield,
P. Calderon, T. Creswick, D. Roberts,
Samuel T. S. C,:.; 2r. Stone, E. W. Cooke, Rosa
Bonheur, and many others, and presents to the eye
of the connoisseur a sig v: unexampled interest.
There are three fine contriuutions from Mr. Stan-
field, " Tintagio Castle" forming one c= the leading
attractions of the exhibition. " At-
tempted Escape of Mary Queen of Scots ;,:om Loch-
leven Castle;' an admirable reproduction of Frith's
great picture, " The Derby Day ;" Rosa Bonheur's
" Mountain Sheep," " The Order of Release" by
Millais, Frith's " Stage Coach," the joint produc-
tion of Roberts and Sant, "Emmaus," " The Girl I
left behind me" by Luard, and upwards of seventy
others, make up an exhibition of rare interest. The
majority of the pictures have obtained a world-wide
celebrity, and the gratification of seeing all collected
and admirably placed in the new gallery is one that
will not be lost sight of by all who love fine
pictures, which are, as Ugo Foscolo has well said,
the chickweed to the gilded cage, and make up for
the want of many other enjoyments to those whose
life is mostly passed amidst the smoke and din, the
bustle and noise of an overcrowded city.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

TIMES.—We are reluctant to give up all hope of
settling the question of Parliamentary Reform this
Session, but we are constrained to warn the Govern-
ment that this hope and their own existence depend
upon their readiness to modify the bill the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer last night unfolded to the
House of Commons. As it was explained by him
it cannot be accepted. With a great show of libe-
rality it is not liberal ; making a profession of
adopting a resting-plaee which shall be Conserva-
tive, it introduces a provision which would make
the electoral system of the country thoroughly un-
stable ; meddling with the redistribution of seats,
things
and settle none. All
r in condemning, if not
is te
cwt
ioounl
sd
ofu ntshe
et ci
usa l te
the whole scheme, parts which are declared to be
essential to it ; nor do we see any hope of escape
from a peremptory rejection of the bill, except a
resolute endeavour on the part of the Ministry to
retrace their steps, and, happily, their previous con-
duct gives us no reason to despair that they will
make any amount of concession to the clearly ex-
pressed opinion of the House.
DAILY NEWS.—A serious difficulty is raised by
the Reform Bill which the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer introduced yesterday evening. Is it a piece of
honest blundering ; or of skilful trickery? It is
not calculated to answer the purposes which its
framers profess to contemplate. It is admirably
suited to accomplish others which they do not avow.
Not a word was said in its favour. It is clear that
it must be withdrawn, if the measure is to be pro-
ceeded with. This done, it will be for the Govern-
ment and the House to consider whether, by the
substitution of a lodger franchise for the more ob-
jectionable of the secondary qualifications, and by
sonic provision for enfranchisement of compound
householders as such, a reasonably satisfactory set-
tlement might not be arrived at.
HERALD. —lf the Liberals will blindly follow Mr.
Gladstone's lead nothing can be done now •, and if
they get into power they will find that nothing can
be done next year. The self-denial required of them
is not great. The inevitable consequence of the
passage of a measure like the Government bill will
be to preserve them their present majority, if not
to increase it. They must now see plainly enough
the Government does not bring forward this bill
from any interested motive. Lord Derby and his
colleagues have felt it their duty to settle this
question if possible, although the settlement will
probably have for its consequence their own life-
long banishment from power. Are the Liberal
leaden BO impatient for office that they will not even

THE SOILED DOVE CASE.

The following correspondence between Mr. Chaplin and
Admiral Rous will be read with interest :

TO THE COMMITTEE OF TATTERSALL'S SUBSCRIPTION
ROOM.

9, Dover-street, Piccadilly, W., March 15, 1867.
Gentlemen,—As it appears from the notice at Tatter-
sall's on Monday last that the question in reference to the
bets in the Soiled Dove case was settled by three members
of the committee only, whereas Rule VIII. of Tattersall's
provides that the quorum shall be five, I beg to submit to
the members of the committee that in justice to the
backers of Soiled Dove, the case should at least be heard
and decided by the recognised tribunal constituted accord-
ing to the rules, and by such tribunal only.—l remain,
gentlemen, your obedient servant, HENRY CHAPLIN.

(C opy.)

13, Berkeley-street, March 18, 1867.

Dear Chaplin,—ln answer to your letter objecting to the
legality of a quorum of three members, in violation of Rule
8 published in the original publications, I beg to inform
you that the committee resolved, in July, 1865, to reduce
the quorum from five to three, owing to the difficulty of
scouring five members for ten months in the year. At that
time 1 informed Messrs. Tattersall and the clerks that in
future three members would form a quorum, and I desired
Mr. Thomas to substitute three for five in the Bth Rule.

The Huntingdon case, in '65, which was of great
importance, was decided by a quorum of three.
Mr. Bevil objected in similar terms to your letter
as to the incompetency of the tribunal. The committee
then agreed unanimously that, without again entering into
the merits of the case, the award should be confirmed.
We can make no distinction between Mr. Bevill and
yourself.

With respect to the Soiled Dove case, which has been
postponed from the 22d of November to the 11th of March,
owing to the inability of collecting a quorum of three
members, the sooner the accounts are settled the better it
will be for all parties—l am, very truly yours,

11. J. Roue, Chairman.
