THAMES.

CHARGE OF WOUNDING.-AGerman glazier, who gave
the name of Joseph Sharper, was brought before Mr. Yard-
ley, charged with assaulting and wounding Emma Lewis, a
married woman.

The complainant, whose head was bandaged, said that
she was in a beer. shop in Whitechapel yesterday afternoon,
fiom three until four o'clock. The prisoner and some other
Germans were there, and were very noisy and violent. The
prisoner was carrying a frame containing window-glass,
and in passing, her gown accidentally caught the frame and
turned it on one side. The prisoner immediately struck
her several times across the back with a wooden rule, and
then hit her upon the head with the same instrument, and
inflicted a severe wound, which bled profusely. It was
found necessary to send for a doctor to dress the wound.
William Brown, a police-constable, No. 82 H, said that
he was informed a woman's throat was cut in a beer-shop.
Mr. Yardley—Her throat cut ?

Witness—Yes, sir, that was the information brought to
me. I went to the beer-shop and found the woman bleed-
ing profusely and two men holding her. The prisoner was
very violent and noisy, and said he would kill the woman.
Mr. Yardley asked Mrs. Lewis if she was sober when the
transaction in question took place ?

Mrs. Lewis—l was not drunk.
Mr. Yardley—Were you sober ?
Mrs. Lewis—Well, I had a pot of beer with my husband.
Th 3 police-constable, Brown, said the woman was per-
fectly sober. The prisoner was drunk.
_ _

Mr. Yardley said the woman was not quite satisfied of
her own sobriety, and he would not decide this case till he
had received further evidence. He could not rely on the
evidence of a woman who was partially intoxicated. He
remanded the prisoner until Friday, but if the prisoner
thought proper to compensate the woman he could do sir
and then he would be discharged.

pleading on behalf of M. Esteban Collantes, im-

and M. Caledron Collantes (though of the same

rather than business is the order of the day. The
tone of the market was tolerably firm, but only a
small amount of business was done. Wools are
hardening rather, though no positive advance in
quotations can be given. The new clip of English
wool is realizing good prices. At Doncaster, on
Saturday, when the first wool market for the season
was held, 300 sheets were exhibited, and the whole
were sold. All hog wool fetched 20s. per 141-lb.,
and other sorts 17s. Gd. to 18s. Gd.
MANCHESTER, June 14.—There was a fair busi-
ness in yarns, at full prices. Some of the principal
houses in the German trade, believing now that
Prussia will not be led into the war, have bought
rather freely.. Buyers for India, the Mediterranean,
and other foreign markets, have also done a moderate
business. For the home trade manufacturers
have purchased to a fair amount, and the ' has ag
gregate business for all quarters been Of
considerable extent. In cloths therp has been a
steady trade, for all markets except India at the
full rates of last Tuesday. The India '

cases they have had to give
rather better terms.

HART'S PATENT ECONOMISING GAS
BURNER, the great desideratumof the age to all con-
sumers of Gas. By its use the objections to the introduction
of Gas into private dwellings are removed, inasmuch as every
particle of gas, on reaching the orifice of the burner, is fairly
consumed, and thus the diffusion of those noxious vapours so
injurious to health, and destructive to works of art, bindings
of books, dm, is entirely prevented.
The burner can be fitted by the most inexperienced hand to
any chandelier or bracket.
May be had at the Depot, 69, Fleet-street, E.C., price Two
Shillings each : one sent on receipt of 30 postage stamps.

BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS

Price ls. lid. and 2s. 9d. per box.
This preparation is one of the benefits which the science of
modern chemistry has conferred upon mankind ; for, during
the first twenty years of the present century to speak of a
cure for the Gout was considered a romance; but now the
efficacy and safety of this medicine is so fully demonstrated,
by unsolicited testimonials from persons in every rank of life,
that public opinion proclaims this as one of the most im-
portant discoveries of the present age. '
These Pills require no restraint of diet or confinement
during their use, and are certain to prevent the disease
attacking any vital part.
Sold by all medicine vendors. Observe " Thomas Prout

food, which will prove invaluable during the approaching
season. For keeping horses in good condition it is unequal-

flesh increases in flavour and value. Cowkeepers will find
great advantage in the increased quantity and improved qua-

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SENATE OF THE
UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE.
GENTLF,NIF,N,—On the announcement of Mr.
Wic.,Tara's resignation of the representation of the
University of Cambridge being made public, I was invited by
a numerous requisition of influential Members of the Senate
to offer myself for the vacant seat. Regarding this invitation
as a recognition that my public life hitherto has been such as
to earn the confidence of the requisitionists, I did not hesitate
to lace myself in their hands as candidate for a distinction
which may reasonably be considered as a due acknowledgment
of past services.
After a careful canvass of the Electors, and acting by the
advice of my Committees, I proposed toot' opponent, Mr.
Selwyn, that we should submit our prse-ook to the
arbitration of 3lr. Walpole, in order to spare the University
the inconvenience of a prolonged contest. Mr. Selwyn con-
senting, the reference took place, and Mr. Walpole has advised
me not to proceed to the Poll, although the numbers and he
character of the promises which I have received are such as
to make me glad that I entered upon this contest, rather than
secured any other less distinguished seat.
I therefore bow to this recommendation, and I retire into
privacy. If, however; the day shall come when Cambridge
needs a representative who will honestly, sedulously, and in-
dependently watch over the interests of religion and learning
as connected with the University, as the chief occupaton of his
public life, and the highest object of his personal ambition, I
am ready at the call. With the expression of the warmest
gratitude to those Members of the Senate who have reposed
their confidence in me, and with a full expectation that I may
hereafter conciliate still greater support,
I am Gen/lemen,
With great respect,
Your faithful and obedient servant,

THE ARM r.

General Sir John Burgoyne and Sir Joshua Jebb
inspected the extensive fortifications and other
works at Portland on Thursday last, and went over
the breakwater and prison. It is said that the
number of workmen and convicts will be materially
increased, and that the new fortress and batteries
will soon assume a formidable appearance. The
main portion of the breakwater is fast approaching
its completion, and affords secure and most welcome
anchorage to the mercantile marine during the
prevalence of contrary winds, and is frequently the
resort of men of war.
The officers composing the barrack and hospital
improvement commission were engaged during the
last week in witnessing a daily trial of an improved
barrack cooking apparatus which has been erected
at Woolwich in one of the old cooking houses, at
the suggestion of the Royal Engineer Department.
The apparatus is on an entirely new principle, and,
is the patent invention of Messrs. Benham and
Sons, of Wigmoze-street. Mr. Warrener, Inspector
to the Commission, was yesterday in attendance
from 12 to 1 during the process of serving out the
dinners for the men, and took down an official no-
tice of the result. The number of men told off for
that day's trial was 663, and the quantities cooked
were as follows :—Meat boiled, 2861 b.; meat baked,
2101 b.; potatoes steamed, 5001 b ; potatoes baked,
2501 b. ; total in weight, 1,2461 b. In addition to,
which it was stated that upwards of 100 gallons a
hot water were supplied for the men's breakfasts,
and the same quantity for their evening meal.
The consumption of coals during the whole day, es
given in the official announcement, amounted to
3101 b., being about 4-10ths of a pound per man.
The stove is supplied with a number of galvanic
iron utensils, for boiling, stewing, making song,
&c., and has the advantage of a spacious oven,
capable of supplying all the requirements of a full
brigade of men, heated by a single fire. The din-
ners were served up in separate messes, and not in
bulk, as has hitherto been the case, which renders
the small amount of fuel consumed the more re-
markable. It was stated at yesterday's trial that
a still larger amount of work might have been
accomplished with the same consumption of coals,
and that it is intended to bake the soldiers' bread
in the oven during the intervals of cooking, which
will still further economise the expenditure, and
utilise the heat.

their maiden race. The following are the names of the
competitors, with the result:—

They rowed from Putney Aqueduct Bridge to Chiswick
Eyot, the prizes being silver cups. They started well
together, and the inhabitants of Fulham and Putney had
the opportunity of witnessing a good contest. The race
was a very hard fought one for a quarter of a mile, during
which time the boats were oar and oar. Red then gradually
drew away, but the contest was still a good one for the next
300 yards, when Red were about a clear length in advance.
At the point Blue might have redeemed their lost ground,
but were steered out into mid-stream, thereby losing several
lengths. Red, in consequence, were enabled considerably
to increase their lead, and came in the winners by 150
yards.

SURE CURE.-LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC
BALSAM, without confining the bowels or affecting the
head, truly efficacious and pleasant, is admitted to be the best
medicine for immediately relieving coughs, colds, confirmed
cases of asthma, and consumption. It frequent'y cures per-
sons whom the faculty pronounce incurable, admirably allays
the tickling which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons de-
prived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffocation,
may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.--Pre-
pared only and sold by W. Lambert, chemist, 20, Jermyn-

An erroneous impression exists that public announcements
on these disorders emanate only from unqualified persons,
but as the new Medical Act provides that none but registered
practitioners shall assume any medical title, those that are
legally qualified can readily be distinguished—a point of great
importance in cases where secrecy, confidence, and skill are
equally requisite.
In the new edition of Self-Preservation,' facts of pars
mount utility are brought together—facts appealing to the
prudence of all who are suffering from affections which in-
volve the enfeeblement and ultimate loss of those powers
without which man forfeits the dignity of nature, and sinks to
the most pitiable depths of physical and moral degradation.

THE NA VY.

We have received letters from our Malta corres-
pondent to the 23d of April, at which date Vice-
Admiral Fanshawe, the Commander-in Chief, con-
tinued in Valetta harbour, with his flag flying on
board the Marlborough, as likewise the Conqueror,
Centurion, and Princess Royal, screw-line-of-battle
ships, Hibernia, receiving-ship, bearing the flag of
Rear-Admiral Codrington, Superintendent of Malta
