CRIMINAL 00UliT.-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.
(Before Barons Bramwell and Martin.)
David Hughes, solicitor, lately residing in Gresham-
street, City, who was yesterday indicted for feloniously
omitting to surrender himself, being a bankrupt, was again
brought up this morning, and the jury returned a verdict
of Guilty.
The other charges were then proceeded with.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CHARGE OF ASSAULT AT THE HAYMARKET THEATRE
AND ANNOYING LADlES.—Benjamin John Wyant, a
gentlemanly-looking man, described as a teacher, of 17,
Mornington -place, llampstead-road, was charged with dis-
orderly conduct and assaulting Gordon, 336 A, at the Hay-
market Theatre.

G.rdon said that on the previous evening, about half-
past six, while on duty at the pit entrance of the Hay-
market Theatre, there being a great crowd at the time going
in, two respectable females called his attention to the man-
ner in which the defendant was rudely pushing against
them. He asked the defendant to pass in quietly, and not
push people about as he was doing. The defendant made
no reply, but with his right hand, his left being pressed
against the wall, struck him on the eye, knocking off his
hat. He did not feel much pain at the present time, though
he did all night.

The defendant, in answer to the charge, said he was
going into the theatre with his sitter, and at the time there
were several ladies on his right side, and in order to protect
his sister put his left hand against the wall so as to allow
her and other ladies to pass. The constable asked him to
take away his hand, and just at that moment he was
pushed by the crowd, and his hand might have touched
the constable's face, but it was quite unintentional, and ha
never intended to strike the officer.

Gordon said it was done willfully with his right hand,
his left being against the wall.

The defendant then called Miss Caroline Wyaut, his
sister, who said she did not think that her brother struck
the officer.

A widow lady, residing at 25, Marylebone-road, said she
was at tho theatre with her two daughters. She heard the
officer order the gentleman to put down his hand,
and he replied, "If I do so the ladies will be
killed," and she heard the officer say, " You're my pri-
soner." The defendant's left hand was against the wall,
and in her opinion the defendant's left hand knocked off
the officer's hat.
The defendant was then discharged.

NEW SOUTH WALES.

There has been a Ministerial crisis at Sydney. ,
Mr. Cowper's Educational Bill has been rejected
by the Assembly, and the rejection was immediately
followed by the resignation of himself and col-

leagues.

The quantity of golddust received by the escorts
from our several goldfields during the month of
October was 26,323 ounces. During the corres-
ponding month of 1858 the receipts amounted to
22,037 ounces. There is, therefore, an increase of
4,286 ounces, or 19 per cent., in the quantity re-
ceived during the month.

THE ARMY.

The officer selected by the War Department to
command the surveying expedition of Royal Engi-
neers about to be despatched to New Zealand is
Lieut. V. G. Clayton, the fieldwork instructor at
the Royal Engineer establishment, Chatham' the
announcement that Capt. J. W. Gordon had been
appointed to the command being premature. The
time for the departure of the expedition has not
yet been announced, but active preparations are
being made at head-quarters in getting ready the
requisite stores and other necessary equipments re-
quired by the men selected for this service.
The first ten guns made in the rifled ordnance fac-
tory at Woolwich, under the superintendence of Mr.
John Anderson, were yesterday fired at the proof
butt in the presence of Colonel Tullochgnspector of
Artillery, and other officials. Each gun having
been carefully searched and examined, the whole
were pronounced faultless. Mr. Anderson was highly
complimented by Col. Tulloh on the remarkable suc-
cess so promptly attained by the new establishment,
which he did not hesitate to state was mainly attri-
butable to Mr. Anderson's intense application and
practical persevering intelligence,displayed through-
out every feature of his, department. The establish-
ment, it was stated, will turn out for proof 20 guns
per week, commencing with the present week; and
before the end of the financial year will have com-
pleted a number far exceeding that anticipated.
After the erection of the' huge and powerful steam
hammer, the work, it is expected, will be consider-
ably augmented. The number of men at present
employed amounts to nearly 3,000 in the rifle cle
partment alone. The two batteries about to be
shipped on board the Himalaya, at Purfleet, for
China, arc ordered to be encased for transportaticson.
Each battery is provided with two additional gun
carriages,thc whole of which have been:strengthened
with iron bands underneath, and further secured
with clips round the brackets and other parts liable
to give way. The. shipment of war materials for
China on board the Adelaide, undertaken to be in
readiness on the 31st of December, has been mate-
rially delayed by the employment of a large number,

211 E NAVY.

Orders have been received from the Admiralty
for the number of labourers attached to Chatham
dockyard to be reduced to 166. In order, however,
not to inflict any unnecessary hardship on that
class, instructions have been given that the reduc-
tion is to be made gradually, and that no fresh en-
tries are to be made to fill the vacancies caused by
deaths or resignations.
The Lords of the Admiralty have directed a num-
ber of pieces of timber belonging to the old frigate
Shannon, lately broken up at Chatham dockyard,
to be forwarded to Somerset-house to be preserved
in the model-room of the Admiralty, where they
will be converted into blocks and stands for the
various models, in order to be kept as relics of
that famous old frigate. A considerable quantity
of the timber has been sent to Portsmouth to be
used at that dockyard, most of the timbers being
as sound as they were when the frigate was built.
The Hon. Council of India have taken up the fol-
lowing ships for the conveyance of Government
stores to India, viz. :—the Liverpool, 1,454 'ions ;
the Earl of Eglinton, 1,274 tons ; the Catnperdown,
993 tons ; and the Ardbeg, 925 tons, all for Cal-
cutta • the Howden, 1,122 tons, for Bombay; and
the Helvellyn, 1,017 tons, for Madras.
The Arctic discovery ship Enterprise, 4, which
has been employed in harbour duty as a coal depot
at Sherness,'has been brought up from that port to
Chatham to be placed in ordinary. It is intended
to break this vessel up.
Some of the men formerly employed as riggers
in Woolwich dockyard; and who voluteered to join
the Arctic expedition on board the Fox, have re-
turned to Woolwich, and will be reinstated in their
former .posts 'in the dockyard. Each of the crew
have been presented by Lindy Franklin with an ele-
gant silver watch, valued at £lO, bearing a suitable
inscription on the outer case, surmounted by an en-
graving representing the Fox in full sail.
The following appointments were made yesterday
at the Admiralty :—Lieut. Vincent Williams to
the Ariadne, Lieut. Cuthbert Le Mesurier to the
Conqueror; Lieut. Alex. Henderson, additional, to
the Hogue, for senice in the Goshawk tender; M.
Thomson, surg., to the Russell ; John Bower, surg.,
to the Edinburgh; John Gallagher, surg., to the
Blenheim; T. Nelson, surg., to the Pembroke; G.

RUSSIA.

A letter from St. Petersburg of the 20th Decem-
ber informs us that the sentence of imprisonment,
military degradation, and loss-of title inflicted on
General Zatler for having cheated the Government
during the war in the Crimea, has been modified
through the intercession of Prince Michael Gort-
schakoff, the defender of Sebastopol. The ex-Com-
missary-General Zatler has been simply dismissed
the service, and retains his titles and fortune. Had
it not been for the energetic opposition given by the
Grand Duke Constantine, who has no pity for dis-
honest functionaries, Zatler would have received a
full pardon from the Emperor. The negotiations
relative to the sale by the Government of the
Nicholas Railway (from St. Petersburg to Moscow)
have been abandoned. The letter concludes by stat-
ing that the financial position of the Russian Go-
vernment is still extremely embarassed, although
the last loan of £12,000,000 has been completely
covered through the influence of Baron Rothschild.

A Paris correspondent of the Independance of
Brussels, in speaking of the Emperor's address to
the diplomatic body, says :—" The language used
caused a considerable sensation, which was after-
wards increased by the affability with which the
Emperor passed round the circle and spoke to each
diplomatist present. It was particularly remarked
that he conversed with M. de Nerli, Minister of the
Grand Duke of Tuscany at Paris, who had been invited
to be present with the other members of the diploma-
tic body. Immediately after the reception, the dif-
ferent legations sent off despatches to their respec-
tive Governments, containing the words used by
the Emperor, and the impression produced on them
by -

the interview." The .Nord, on the same subject,
says :—" A murmur of approbation followed the
utterance of these peaceful words, and all present
withdrew, evidently much pleased with what they
had heard."

AN EFFECTUAL REMEDY.-LAMBERT'S
ASTHMATIC BALSAM, without confining the bowels
or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant, is ad-
mitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and consumption.
It frequently cures persons whom the faculty pronounce in-
curable, admirably allays the tickling which provokes frequent
coughing. In approaching consumption its effects are truly
beneficial. Persons deprived of sleep, or even lying down for
fear of suffocation, may depend en relief in a few minutes
after taking it. Prepared only and sold by. W. Lambert,

FRANCE.

A Paris letter, in the Piord, says :—" It is ru-
moured, relative to the pamphlet Francis Joseph
I. et l'Europe'—which faithfully expresses the
disquietude felt in the financial world—that if
Austria obstinately persists in declining to sell
Venetia, all the great bankers of Europe will come
to an understanding to refuse her the support of
their credit. It is certain that if such an agree-
ment were to take place, which however I think
scarcely possible, the Austrian Government would
be placed in a state of great embarrassment."
M. Farini has addressed a report to the King on
the establishment for the poor at Naples, exposing
several very serious abuses in its administration.
The report has been sent to the Consulta of State.

JAPAN:

The ratifications of the treaty with Japan concluded at
Yedo on the 29th July, 1853, were exchanged at Washing-
ton on the 22d May last, and the treaty itself was pro-
claimed on the succeeding day. There is good reason to
expect that, under its protection and influence, our trade
and intercourse with that distant and interesting people
will rapidly increase.
The ratifications of the treaty were exchanged with
unusual solemnity. For this purpose the Tycoon had
accredited three of his most distinguished subjects as
envoys extraordinary and ministers plenipotentiary, who
were received and treated with marked distinction and
kindness by the Government and people of the United
States.
There is every reason to believe that they have returned
to their native land entirely satisfied with their visit and in-
spired by the most friendly feelings for our country. Let
us ardently hope, in the language of the treaty itself, that
,4 there shall henceforward be perpetual peace and friend-
ship between the United States of America and his Majesty
the Tycoon of Japan and his successors."
BRAZIL.

With the wise, conservative, and liberal government of
the Empire of Brazil our relations continue to be of the
most amicable character.

NEW GRANADA.

The exchange of the ratifications of the convention with
the republic of New Granada, signed at Washington on
the 10th Sept. 1857, has been long delayed from accidental
causes, for which neither party is censurable. These rati-
fications were duly exchanged in this city on the sth of
Nov. last. Thui4 has a controversy been amicably termi-
nated which had become so serious at the period of my in-
auguration, as to require me, on the 17th April, 1857, to
direct our Minister to demand his passports and return to
the United States.
Under this convention the Government of New Grainda
has specially acknowledged itself to be responsible to our
citizans "for damages which were caused by the riot at
Panama on the 15th April, 1856. These claims, together
with other claims of our citizens which had been long urged
in vain, are referred for adjustment to a board of commis-
sioners. I submit a copy of the convention to Congress,
and recommend the legislation necessary to carry it into
effect.

By a contract concluded 'ou the 29th uct., 1860 between the
Turkish Government
i firman,
.:nd Messrs. J. Mires and Co., and
ratified by an imperik
a loan has been effected.
The following Is the explanatory statement which precedes
this contract :--
" The Government of his Majesty the .Sultan. desirous of
contracting a loan, has'proposed to a company of bankers and
capitalif,ts to sell and cede to them by contract a sum of
itenteri or Turkish Bonds, the interest on which at 6 percent.
would be payable in the different cities of Europe, and chiefly
at J.:•aris and London.
•" The Imperial Government, desiring also to afford every
vuarantee for this loan, and to ensure the payment of the in-
terest and the redemption of the nominal capital in 36 years,
engages and undertakes to effect regular and equable monthly
payments to the contractors or their representatives.
"To this end and in order to fulfil the conditions of security
the Imperial Government assigns as guarantee for payment
until the necessary annuities fall due, the general revenues
of the Ottoman Empire, and especially the farmed revenues
enuixerated in Article 9.".

removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
_

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The oases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the ♦arious
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently, recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

is an embarrassment to Austria more than ever
at the present moment. All her older provinces
and domains are more or less in commotion, and
some of them,- nungary especially, in danger of going
so far as to proclaim their independence. It is
quite certain that war in Venetia means
insurrection in Hungary, and insurrection
in Hungary might be followed by troublesome
movements in almost all the provinces of this sin-
gularly composite Empire. The Emperor of Ans-
TRIA. would have as much as ever he could do to
keep all together, even without the burden of
Venetia to impede his action, but it would
certainly surprise no observer to see the whole
empire fall to pieces at the first shock of another
Italian war. Yet that war must come unless
averted by concession. Austria is armed to the
teeth in the little territory; Italy is arming
also, and GARIBALDI is at the service of Italy, ready
for any feat at home, or, by way of diversion, to
lead the Austrians in Hungary such a dance as he
taught them at the foot of the Alps.
But would France look quietly on. Austria has
not fulfilled in Venetia the engagements of Villa-
franca ; and France could truthfully assert that she
was warranted in completing her programme of
" liberation from the Alps to the Adriatic" when
the tenants on the Adriatic did not fulfil
their duty. Then would not other Powers in-
terfere ? Would not Russia and Prussia begin
to quake for their Polish dominions, and wish
to intervene ? Would not England firmly say,
that where her fleets could speak with effect
there should be no intervention—in short, would not
all Europe be unsettled if once war recomenced in the
north-west corner of Italy ? On the whole, if ever
there was a case in which all the Powers of Europe
were interested, it would seem to be in advising
Austria to yield to necessity. She came badly by
Venetia, by a disgraceful transaction between her
and the first NAPOLEON. It has never done her any
good—it has been ruin to her exchequer, and
paralyses per power over her other territories ;
while all the free States in the world, and all the
despots, too, would agree in advising her to accept
thankfully a fair offer—otherwise she might gain
the loss of all.

LETTERS PATENT for an improved method of fixing
ARTIFICIAL TEETH to the GUMS on MOVEABLE
BASES, without plates or any fastenings which may be thus
described :

The'teeth are perfectly fitted from first to last in Two
nouns, without pain or extraction of stumps, by means of
Moveable Elastiq and Indestructible Bases. Plicing one
within a tube to which the Teeth are attached, and applying
it to the gums, it adheres with such tenacity by suction that
the Teeth are quite immoveable. except at the will of the
wearer. A new Base is readily applied, without the aid of a
Dentist, when changes take place from loss of Teeth absorp-
tion, &c., rendering these Teeth always useful and durable
for life.

The exclusive right to this Patent is secured to Mr. Eskell
by her Majesty's Royal Seal, and can only be procured at his
residence, where specimens may be seen and every informa-
tion obtained. Decayed teeth stopped. Loose teeth fastened.

The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex

ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive,
intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully

THE REV. MR. HATCH.—The usual preliminary
notice for an action at law for damages has been served, on
the part of the Rev. Mr. Hatch, on the solicitors who were
entrusted with his defence in a recent trial at the Central
Criminal Court, in which he was convicted of a criminal
assault, and sentenced to four year's penal servitude. The
rev, gentleman founds his complaint on the fact of the
legal fine in question refraining from producing for exami-
nation certain witnesses, previously subpomed, whose evi-
dence, he maintains, would have disproved the charges for
which he suffered imprisonment, and now entail on him the
loss of character and reputation.

A BOY HANGED BY ACCIDENT,—An accident of
a very painful nature occurred at Nottingham on Friday
afternoon, the 14th instant, by which a youth named John
Wood met his death. The deceased was about 14 years of
age, and was in the employ of Mr. S. Parr, druggist, as an
errand boy. He had been in the habit of amusing himself
at meal times with a rope which hung from the ceiling in a
back room on his master's premises, and on the afternoon in
question, being absent from work rather longer than usual
a search was made for him. In a short time the body of
the unfortunate boy was found suspended by the neck in
the room above mentioned ; and it seems, from the position
in which it was discovered, that instead of swinging by his
hands the deceased bad tried to swing On his chin, when,
by a sudden twist of the rope, his neck became tightly
secured. The body was immediately cutdown, and although
it was quite warm and every possible rasa as were used to
restore animation, Ws in a few momenta was extinct.
