PLEASANT ADVENTURE OF A STREET MUSICIAN.
—A poor boy, w.ho has lost the use of one of his legs, but
who is an accomplished musician, and plays with admirable
taste and skill upon the accordion, has been for several
years gaining a livelihood by street playing in Liverpool.
In the long summer months crowds of delighted listeners
have been accustomed to gather in a circle around him, and
remain almost entranced by his beautiful and expressive
airs and improvisations, so wondrously different to the
horrid torture of street organs. We learn with pleasure
that Miss Burdett Coutts has taken the youth under her

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 cases
will& Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their manageinent is founded, demonstrating his success and
explaining the cause of it. -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.

CONVEYANCE OF RAILWAY TRAINS BE-

iiVEEN DOVER AND CALMS.

M. Fromage •of Darnetal (Seine Inferieure), pro-
poses to complete the communication between the
railways of England and France by means of very
large steamers capable of conveying a railway train
across the Channel. On the arrival of a train at
Calais he proposes that it should be run on to the
deck of the steamer, secured, and conveyed across
the Channel to a basin in Dover, where he proposes
to run the French train on to the English railway,
and send it on to London. The return train, on it:
arrival at Dover from London, he proposes should
be run on to the deck of one of those large steamers
secured in its position, and conveyed across the
Channel to Calais, where, by means of certain
apparatus, it could be landed on the French Rail-
way, and conveyed by locomotive power to Paris.
He considers this mode of railway communication
practicable, easily accqmplished at a moderate cost,
and far superior to any scheme having for4its object
the construction of a tunnel under the sea, or a
tubular bridge over the Channel.

31st ult., and tliat there were cries expressive of
6inptiihy for Piedmont, &c. -But, from the meagre

THAMES.

A VERY MEAN OFFENCE.—Henry Rickett, a tall, able-
bodied man, about 30 years of age, was brought before Mr.
Yardley, charged with stealing a pint pewter pot from
the George the Fourth public-house in Poplar.
Police-constable Ponsford, No. 260 K, stated that at a
late hour last night he was in Jane-place, Poplar, and saw
the prisoner standing close by a wall and stamp upon some
thing on the ground. The prisoner then picked up what
he had stamped upon and put it under his coat. He went
up to the prisoner and took from him a battered pint pot.
He asked him where he obtained the pot, to which he
replied that he picked it up in a drain in High-street,
Poplar.

The prisoner, in defence, said that he "met." with the
pot in High-street, Poplar, and kicked it along for some
time, and that was the cause of its being so battered.
Mr. Yardley—The police-constable says you stamped
upon the pot, and frogt its appearance I have no doubt that
was the case.

The prisoner—I did not do any such thing.
Mr. Yardley—Call Mr. Evans.

Mr. William Evans, landlord of the George the Fourth
public-house, in Bow-lane, Poplar, stated that the prisoner
came to his house last night and asked for a pint of porter,
and he was served with it by the servant in the best parlour
pint-pot—the one produced. The barmaid served the pri-
soner and missed the pot a few minutes after he left the
house.

Mr. Yardley said these sort of robberies were
generally committed by old and decrepid °men and
women, who by idleness and drunkenness had got
their minds into such a state .that they • would
pilfer little things, and particularly publican's measures,
for which they obtained a few halfpence from a marine
store-dealer, but be was very much surprised at a stout
able-bodied man in good health and apparently in good
circumstances, committing so mean an offence. He thought
when he first saw the prisoner it was a mistake.
The prisoner—lt is a mistake.

Mr. Yardley—A mistake, sir, it is a fact, you stole the
pot. What are you ?

The prisoner—I work at the West India Dock.

Mr. Evans—He has been a frequent customer, the lasi
man I should suspect.

Mr. Yardley—l suppose so. Do you deny the theft?
The prisoner—I do. I picked up the pot.
Mr. Yardley—As you so very stoutly deny the robbery
I shall commit you for trial. Take the depositions.
The prisoner was finally remanded until Tuesday for
inquiries to be made about him.
