POLICE INTELLIGEME.—This Day.

BOW-STREET.

Two lads, named Brydges and Williams, were
placed at the bar charged with the following daring
robbery :
The prosecutrix, a dressmaker, named Colville,
living at No. 6, Gilbert's Passage, said, on the 28th
ult. she had Leen out visiting, and on returning
home in the evening, when she got into the
passage of the house in which she resided, she
found the two lads in the passage. One had a dark
larAthorn in his hand, and the other was by his
side. Brydges, who was the one who held the
light, came up to her, and, pushing it in her
face, at the same time struck her a severe blow in
the eye, and afterwards by another blow on the
temple he struck her down, and she became insen-
sible, during which she was robbed of her watch,
which she had by her side when she went in doors.
On recovering from the injuries she bad re-
ceived, she went to the door and called
for assistance. She gave a description to the
police of the persons who had robbed her, and on
Saturday she identified the two prisoners from
amongst nine others as those who had robbed her.
The police-constable said he took the prisoners
into custody on Friday night from the description
she had given. When Brydges was indentified he
said he was sure the woman didn't know who
robbed her, as she was too drunk to know who
took her watch.

In reply to the charge, Brydges said he was not
the man, and that he knew nothing about the row.
The father of Williams said a great mistake had
been made in taking his boy into custody, and he
was in hopes that some witnesses would be in attend-
ance to state certain facts which would prove the
fact.
Mr. Vaughan said he should remand the pri-
soners, in order that further inquiry might be made.
~Villiams's father said if his boy were sent to prison
it would be,his ruin. He was not the boy who was
mixed up in the robbery, and the police could tes-
tify that he was honest and industrious.
Mr. Vaughan said, under the circumstances, he
should accept the father's bail for the appearance of
the boy on the next occasion, as he had not been
positively identified as one of the persons commit-
ting the robbery, but Brydges he should send to the
louse of Detention until that day week, when the
witnesses required to prove Williams's entire inno-
cence of the charge would be iu attendance.

DUBLIN, July 4.
The fashionable watering-place of Portrush, near
Coleraine, has been the scene of a deplorable acci-
dent. Mrs. Hennessy, from Belfast, arrived there
on Mcnday by the midday train, accompanied by
her two granddaughters, Jane and Alice Simpson,
aged respectively 13 and 11 years. Having taken
possession of their lodgings they strolled out on
the rocks, near the ladies' bathing-place. These
rocks rise abruptly out of the deep water, and are
broken here and there by the violence of the waves.
Though the day was fine, there was a smart
breeze from the north, with a spring tide and a
heavy sea. Mrs. Hennessy ventured too near
the edge of the rock, when a wave came sud-
denly and swept her in. The girls rushed forward
to rescue their grandmother, who seized them
both, but the youngest was ton from her grasp,
sank instantly, and was seen no more. The other
caught the buoy-rope to which the salmon nets are
attached, and held by it with the right hand,
while
lady,
eivdith the other she held up the head of the
Y, who had fainted from exhaustion.
Two boatmen came as quickly as possible to their
rescue. The girl had clutched the rope with such a
rigid grasp that her fingers had to be forced open.
She had been in delicate health, and the shock was
so great that she died that evenity,
efforts of three doctors, Messrs. the
Campbell,Corbett,prompt
and Carson, being unavailing to save her. Mrs.
• Hennessy, however, was gradually restored to con-
sciousness, and she survives, though in a very weak
state. The boatmen, Murphy and Kelly, by whom
she was rescued, have been dragging for the mis-
sing body.

A young gentleman named Gibson, and a man
named Keefe, have been drowned while bathing in
the Slaney, near Wexford.

Eighteen of the Fenian convicts were removed
yesterday from the Mountjoy Prison, and placed on

Ernst Schulz at the Egyptian Hall.

Owing to the unprecedented success that has
attended the entertainment of Herr Schulz, it is
proposed to continue the representation of
" Masks and Faces " some weeks beyond the time
originally fixed upon for the termination of his
performance in London. This style of entertain-
ment is at once so novel and exceedingly clever
that the success that has attended it during
the entire period it has been given is by
no means a surprise to those who have had
the pleasure of witnessing it, as nothing more
animated can be conceived than the living pictures
of the different species of humanity submitted to
the audience by Herr Schulz. In the four parts
into which the entertainment is divided, viz., Hu-
morons Sketches of the Varieties of Mankind,
Physiology of the Beard, My Portrait Album, and
Types of Races and Nationality—the changes of
countenance exhibited are little less than miraculous,
as every one of the six-and-forty changes Herr
Schulz's features undergo during the entertain-
ment is a perfect study for an artist. It is not
simply a trifling change heightened by false wigs and
other theatrical contrivances of which we speaks
but a perfect and complete alteration of countenance
effected by an extraordinary control of the facial
muscles, each one being a perfect photograph of the
type represented. With respect to the second part
of the entertainment—the Physiology of the Beard--'
the effect is perfectly bewildering. At one time We
have the face ornamented with the military
moustache, the artist's beard, the half-pay beard,
the democratic beard, the mutton-chop whisker,
and a variety of others equally curious, all pro'
duced by a contrivance at once most surpris-
ing and ingenious. Those who have not yet
visited the Egyptian-hall ought certainly to avail
themselves of the present opportunity, for 10
losing a sight of Herr Schulz they will miss one
1 of the most remarkable exhibitions ever produced 111
the metropolis.

tion of ARTIFICIAL TEE T fixed without spring's, wires,
or ligatures. They so perfectly reemb:e the natural teeth
as not to be distinguished fro a the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This
method does not require toe extraction of roots, or any pain-
ful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that arc
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-

PIGEON SHOOTING-THE GUN CLUB.

The Open Summer Handicap came off on Saturday, at
the grounds of the Gun Club, Shepherd's Bush; but al-
though the weather was most favourable for shooting the
attendance was unusually small. Out of the 36 gentlemen
who entered for the .£5 sweep only 13 put in an appear:me°,
many of the club's best shots no doubt. preferring the eon-
test at newton, which took place simultaneously -with this.
The birds wore first class, being nil especially selected by
Mr. Offer, of Hammersmith, for the occasion ; and that,
coupled with a strong breeze, had the effect of testing m
no small degree the capabilities of the gentlemen who took
part in the proceedings. As a whole the shooting vas
very fair, but the performances of Mr. 11. Middleton pokers
and Mr. Gregory were remarkably good. These two gen-
tlemen, together with Viscount Stormont, killed all their
six birds, and wore consequently called upon to shoot ~dif
ties. Viscount Stormont fell out at the eighth round,
leaving the prizes (£5O and £ls) to be competed for by
Mr. Rogers and Mr. Gregory. At the tenth round Mr.
Rogers hit his bird hard with both barrels, but it fell with-
out the bounds, leaving the chances in the hands of his op-
ponent. Mr. Gregory's bird, however, stnceoded in getting
away also, and from that time the contest took an exciting
turn, for each gentleman killed bird after bird, and in
almost every instance with the first barrel. At the figi-
teeuth round Mr. Rogers failed, and Mr. Gregory very
narrowly escaped again being in the same position, for
with the first barrel he did not even touch his bird, and it
had fairly started with the wing before his second was
brought to bear. Ile, however, brought the bird down,
and took the first prize.
The score, irrespective of the ties, was as follows: -_
Viscount Stormont (251 yards), 6; Mr W. Lysley (25), 3;
Mr J. Davies (25), 2 ; Sir W. Call, Bart. (25), 2 ; Mr IL
Middleton Rogers (25), 6; Mr T. L. Bertie (241), 0; Mr.
E. Collins (24), 0 ; Captain Burnand (231), 4 ; Mr L. L.
Dill Wyn, M.P. (231), 3 ; Mr G. Battcoek (241), 4 ; Col.
Annesley (5), 1; Mr. Gregory) 25k), 6.
The Sovereign Sweeps, several -of which wore sol£o..
quently shot off, were well patronised, and some good
shooting was made.
The Gun Club, which can now only bo considered in its
infancy, is growing rapidly, for not a day passes which does
not bring applications from gentlemen to be enrolled as
members. The season, however, is drawing to a close, and
there will probably be only time for two more contests
before its members, by their success with the grouse, illus..
trate the advantage they have derived from their summer
practice at Shepherd's Bush.
One of the closing events will be a free open handicap,
which is fixed for Thursday week.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a full average supply of forsin stock on sale
hero to-day ; all breeds moved off heavily at depreiied
currencies.

The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing
districts were on the increase, and for the most part i❑
excellent condition. The supply from Scotland was
limited. The demand for even the finest breeds was
heavy, at a decline in the quotations compared with Mon-
day last of quite 2d per 81bs. Some very good beasts were
received from Licolnshire.

From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, the
supply amounted to about 800 Scots, short-horns,- and
crosses; from Lincolnshire and other parts of England
1,250 various breods; and from Scotland, 110 scots and
crosses.

Notwithstanding that the supply of sheep was only
moderate for the time of year all breeds moved off heavily,

THE LO-,.. SSES IN 711 E WHITE SEA.

The Foreign-office have received from Sir
Buchanan a telegram which the Russian Goverx
ment have handed to him from Archangel. It
dated July 1, and sets forth that the authorities
Archangel had boarded every vessel arriving at tl
port, in order to ascertain the fate of the wreeke
crews. The masters report seeing a large numb(
of wrecks in the neighbourhood of Puloni and Sai
movets, distant 130 miles from Archangel, on tl
western coast of the White Sea. They believe tlif
about 200 men reached Sasmovets belonging to th
wrecked vessels, which they say numbered 10(
During the 28th and 29th ult., ten abandoned Nor
wLegian vessels were towed up to Archangel, Navin;
been extricated from the ice, and three Englisl
vessels lying below the bar were reported to have a
least 200 shipwrecked people. There is a light
house at Sasmovets, and it is to be hoped that thi
unfortunate people who got ashore found refug
there. A Government steamer was being fitte
out with all despatch to go to their assistance. Sh
would leave Archangel that day (July 1) for Sas
movets and Puloni. A schooner was sent bj
the Government on the 28th, and it was ex.
petted that the Monastery would also render
assistance. The following is the list of the vessel(
wrecked as far as yet known :---The Brothers

THE SONGS OF MR. H. CLIFTON.

It is with much pleasure we have to speak of the
humorous and pleasing compositions of this VI
clever vocalist and author, because they supply
want which has long existed, viz., a lively, merry
ditty, that can be sung at a private family party',
either by lady or gentleman, without the fear el
offending propriety. Unfortunately of late a taste
has to some extent sprung up for a class of songs of
a very questionable character, and " great coil°
singers" have received in some instances enorinoos,
salaries for doing that which, in the opinion 0'
many, had much better been left alone. But
change has begun to appear, and now real wit and
humour seem to be required in place of low vul-
garity. To Mr. Clifton is the favourable movement
mainly to be attributed, because unaided he b 35
worked against the vulgar taste, and that he b5l
succeeded is best shown by the very large denaan
which every new song he issues to the public
through the instrumentality of Messrs. llopvie°3
and Crew, of New Bond-street, is sure to meet
,
with. In the words of one of his own excellent
compositions, he has been " Pulling bard
against the stream," and at last the P°'
pular tide has turned in his favour—a circumstal
that will give pleasure to every lover of mirth att,,
good taste. It would be impossible to enumerat;
separately the merits of his compositions, but ill
specimens of his style we take at random, "Bear ~
like a man," "Where there's a will there's a waY',,
A motto for every man," " Work, boys, work',,
" Pulling hard against the stream," "My old wife'
"Jones's musical party," "The railway bell," "it',.,
1
really very singular," and " The good tempered ruali:,
Each of the above are entirely of his own come':
tion, both words and music, and in all such a health
spirit prevails that the vocalist experiences as much
i
pleasure in singing as a really merry and wise part
would certainly feel in listening to them. Mr. Cliftei
has doubtless worked hard, but the success he is ne,
enjoying must be both a gratification and a satisbc 0
tion to him, especially as he has had to overeelliv,
difficulties that appeared almost insurmountalPil,
Messrs. Hopwood and Crew have also just Put°
lished all the new dance music performed by C°°
and Tinney's band at the aristocratic balls duril
the season, all the latest gems of melody stllll
by the Christy Minstrels, including the immensei, j
popular ballads, " Sail on, silver cloud," "The 13
awaits the day," " Mill May," and " Sweet thougliv
of thee," and a series of instrumental pieces, t ,s
latest being Berger's " Always Gay," and Riviere
" Echoes of the Night," both brilliant and telling
compositions.

ATHLETIC SPORTS.

The annual meeting of the Military Store Staff took
place on Saturday last at the back of the Royal Arsenal,,
Woolwich, in the presence of an immense concourse 01
spectators, who seemed delighted with the admirable ar-
rangements which were made for their comfort. On ac-
count of the great pressure on our columns we cannot go
into the details of the various sports which took place, 6°
that a slight resumd must suffice. The race of 100 yards
was won easily by Private J. Cummings, who came in
first by a couple of yards. In the running high jumps
Private Gray proved successful. The one-mile race Nvas
won easily by Private Palmer. In the 300 yards hurdle
race, over 12 flights, Private Cummings led all the way'
and won by a yard. The prize for long jumping was taken
by Private Gray. The quarter of a mile race was a splen-
did contest, and ultimately fell to Private Cummings
who won -by a yard. A three-mile race was won by 5..
Holland, Dayman being well up for second place. Handi-
cap of a quarter of a mile.—Privato Cummings, scratch,
gradually passed the other competitors, and won easily.
The strangers' race fcr employes.—J. Parkes won by 8
yard, Leffler a capital second. The steeplechase afforded
much amusement to the company, and a fine race was won
by Private Cummings, T. Holland being second. A three'
legged race was won by Messrs. Palmer and Cummings)
the strangers' race falling to R. Willoughby, who came in
first by a yard and a half.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE---This Day.

VICTORIA CLUB BETTING.—Tats DAY.
A largo attendance and business particularly brisk. The
Liverpool Cup was made the medium of some heavy
speculation, which, however, was principally confined to
Challenge and Moldavia, the former, for whom there was
a genuine commission, ultimately finding support at any
advance over 3to 1. For the Goodwood Stakes Jezabol
was often mentioned, and in one quarter mot with sup-
port for some X 300; yet at the close Aggravator had the
call, though perhaps not supported for as much money.
Guy of Warwick seemed quite out of odour, but Dulcimer
met with genuine support. Pakrita at 25 to 1 was in-
vested in for a "century." The prices are subjoined :

A SWEEPSTAKES FOR A VERDICT.—A jury erli:
panelled at the Bucks quarter sessions, held at Aylesbury
this week, signalised themselves by the novel but very
equivocal mode (after being locked up for four hours and
a half) of arriving at a verdict by lottery. Twelve SDP..
of paper were placed in a hat, on one of which was writto:
the word " Guilty," and on another "Not Guilty," the re
mainder being blanks. The " Guilty " being first dravil3l
the jury went into court and gave their verdict to tb.
effect. The case was that of a man charged with stealWs
two surgical trusses.—Bucks Herald.

PIGEON SHOOTING A LA FRANCE.

On Saturday there was a "great novelty on the water
at the Welsh Harp, Hendon," in the form of a froe handi-
cap at pigeons, open to members of the usual clubs on the
customary conditions. Mr. Warner had a very cleverly
contrived pontoon platform run out into the lake, and his
general arrangements were of the habitually satisfactory
character at these grounds. There were 110 names put
down on the card, but many of them had promised many,
days aga to shoot at the Gan Glub, and not a few were at-
tracted by the novelty of the aquatic entertainment, and
not loss by the handicapped distances,which in numberless
instances were absurdly lenient. All that could only bring
up 42 of those named, but as ton post-entered there was
enough for three prizes of £l4O, £7O, and £4O each, and
leave the liberal margin of £2O for the expenses. Of the
half-hundred and two who shot only eight killed five birds
each, and half of that number of gentlemen missed the
sixth, the issue of the ties being as follows :
Captain J. M. Tharp 221 1 Ist prize, £l4O.
Mr. a H. Maxwell 23 0 1 1 11 2d prize, £7O.

MARK LANE.

In most of the country markets held on Saturday the
sale for wheat was steady, at about stationary prices.
Barley, oats, and most other kinds of produce moved off
slowly, at previous quotations. Throughout the Continent
wheat has been held at full prices. Spring corn has been
in moderate request. In America the value of produce
continues to give way.
The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to our market
to-day were very limited, but in fair average condition.
Although the show of samples was trifling, the demand
was heavy in the extreme, and prices, when compared with
Monday last, remain nominally unaltered.
The show of foreign wheat was tolerably good. The
best parcels were held at full quotations; but inferior kinds
were lower to sell.

Floating cargoes of grain commanded very little atten•

tion.

No English barley was brought forward, and the show
of foreign was only moderate. Sales progressed slowly,

at previous rates.
Malt was quite as dear as last week, with a fair con-
sumptive demand.
Good sound oats wore steady in price, but inferior
foreign were rather cheaper. The supply was rather
extensive.
Beans—the supply of which was limited—moved off
slowly, at previous quotations.
In peas next to nothing was doing at last week's cur-

rency.
The flour trade was very quiet. In prices no change
took place.
The demand for seeds was heavy, whilst cakes com-
manded very little attention.
