HOUSE OF COMITONS.—(Tins DAY.)
The SPEAKEE took the chair at half-past one o'clock.
Amoi,g.t the raewbers pre.,enting, tht zoselres to take the
oath was Alderman Salomon, one of the members for
Greenwich.
The usual oath was tendered to the hon. member, which
ho refused to subscribe to.
Lord J. RUSSELL said, that as the hon. member for
Greenwich was unable to subscribe to the oath from con-
scientious motives, and was, therefore, incapacitated from
taking his seat, be should move that the last words of the
oath, viz., " on the true faith of a Christian" be, therefore,
omitted. (Hear, hear.)
Sir G. GREY seconded the motion.
Mr. NEWDEGATE entered his protest against such a
proceeding. He felt bound to oppose the motion. The
hon. gentleman then restated his old opinions with respect
to the subject. At the conclusion of his remarks, it being
thought that he intended to press for a division,
The SPEAKER directed those members who had not
been sworn to withdraw.
This was accordingly done, but after a few observations
rozu Lord John Russell, the motion was agreed to without
a division.
Alderman Salomons, Baron Lionel. Rothschild, and
Baron Meyer Rothschild then advanced to the table and
were sworn, the last sentence of the oath being omitted by
the clerk.
The swearing in of members continued up to the rising
of the house. •

THAMES.

DARING STREET ROBBERY.—William Phillips, a boy
about 15 years of age, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged
with stealing a purse containing 15s. from the person of
Jane Todman.

The prosecutrix is the wife of a Thames police inspector,
stationed on board the ship Scorpion, off Millwall. On
Saturday night she was passing along High-street, Poplar,
when the prisoner and another boy approached, looked at
her in the face, and at the same moment she missed her
purse, and saw the prisoner, who was next to her, pass some-
thing to his companion. She raised an alarm instantly and
seized the prisoner. The other boy ran away, and was
immediately pursued by a gentleman who was passing, but
he slipped up a court and got away. She was sure the
prisoner took her purse, which contained 155., and gave it
to the other boy.
Mr. Selfe—Did you see him do it ?

Mrs. Todman—No, but he was next to me, and as he
stared at me I missed my purse and saw him hand some-
thing to the other boy.

Mr. Edwin Ondler, No. 1, Trinity-square, Tower-hill,
said he saw the prisoner and another boy in company on
Tower-hill on Saturday night and watched them He saw
them close to the prosecutrin, and heard the alarm given.
He pursued the boy who received the purse, but there were
so many persons about that he could not find him. He
had seen the prisoner and another boy on Tower-hill while
the soldiers were being drilled.
The prisoner, in defence, said he was an honest, hard-
working boy, and lived in Barnsley-street, Bethnal-green.
Copping, a police-constable, No. 379 K,
said he had
seen the prisoner almost daily with thieves for the last 18
months. The prisoner was convicted in that court for
stealing a pistol, and sentenced to six weeks' imprisonment
and hard labour. The prisoner was on Epsom-downs on
Friday, and he drove him off the course.
Mr. Selfe said that the prisoner was taking to thieving
as a profession, and the next time he was brought before
him and a case was made out, he would commit him for
trial. At present the prisoner was sentenced to three
months' imprisonment and hard labour.

ROME.

We have already published a notification made
by Cardinal Milesi, Papal Legate at Romagna, of
the reply of the French Government recognising
tho neutrality of the Pope. The following is a
circular, dated May 15, from the same dignitary,
to the principal authorities, announcing a similar
reply from Austria : _ _

" Illustrious Sir,—By my circular of the Ist of
May I announced to you that the French Govern-
ment had formally recognised the neutrality of our
state. The same recognition having taken place
on the part of Austria, I send for your guidance
and for the greater security of the people a copy of
a despatch on this subject from the Secretary of
State, which runs as follows :—" Eminent and
Right Rev. Lord,—The Pontifical Government
having declared to Austria and to France, and
afterwards to all the other Powers, the neutrality
which it has constantly professed on account
of its special character, and from which it can-
not part, a complete and explicit assurance has
been given to us by the first two Powers—an
assurance which it more particularly important
for us at the present moment—that this neu-
trality will be everywhere respected. This assur-
ance, which I make known to your Eminence, must
rejoice and tranquillise the agitated minds in your
province, since there is no longer any reason to fear
a conflict taking place on our territory between the
hostile armies. Your Eminence will have to make
known this news, and you may add that, in conse-
quence of this assurance, any attack of one of
those armies against the other is impossible, since
it would be regarded as a violence committed
against the Government of the Holy See. I re-
main, etc. ANTONELLI."
Accept the assurance, etc. MILES!."

ROMFORD.

A rifle corps has been formed in this district,
under the title of the " Royal Havering Volunteer
Rifles."

SUFFOLK.

The Attorney-General has contributed £25 to the
fund being raised for the formation of a rifle club
at Ipswich, and about £125 has now been collected
in the shape of donations, entrance fees, and annual
subscriptions. The committee propose to commence
the formation of companies to-day (Monday).
On Friday afternoon a meeting was held. at Bury
St. Edmund's for the purpose of forming a rifle
club, out of which a volunteer corps may hereafter
be formed. The Mayor (Mr. G. P. Clay) presided.
Several gentlemen having addressed the meeting
it was resolved that steps should be taken to obtain
the sanction of the Lord-Lieutenant to the esta-
blishment of a rifle corps, and an influential pro-
visional committee was appointed for the purpose.

NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE.

The committee appointed by the public meeting
met in the Mayor's Chamber, in this town, last
week, Sir John Fife presiding, when it was an-
nounced that 47 gentlemen had inscribed their
names on the list opened for volunteers undertaking
to find their own uniforms, arms, and equipments.

NORFOLK. •
The movement proceeds here with unabated spirit.
At Great Yarmouth about 60 volunteers have en-
rolled their names, and the list includes Sir E. H.
Lacon, M.P., Sir f. Stracey, M.P., and most of the
leading inhabitants of the town. It is expected
that Lieut.-Colonel Beckham will be lieutenant-
colonel of the corps, and a fund is being raised with
a view of reducing the expense of joining in the
movement to those who might otherwise be deterred
from taking part in it. At Norwich the fund raised
to defray the preliminary expenses of the proposed
corps now amounts to £265, and the mayor has
convened a meeting for to-day (Monday) for the
purpose of arranging details as regards the organi-
zation of the regiment. In the country districts
much enthusiasm has been displayed.

LUPE RIAL PARLIAMENT,

HOUSE OF LORDS—(Tms DAY).

Their Lordships assembled this day at two o'clock.
The swearing in of peers occupied their lordships till
their adjournment.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(Tars DAY.)

The SPEAKER took the chair at half-past one o'clock.
Amongst the members presenting themselves to take the
oath was Alderman Salompns, one of the members for
Greenwich.

The usual oath was tendered to the hon. member, which
he refused to subscribe to.

Lord J. RUSSELL said, that as the hon. member for
Greenwich was unable to subscribe to the oath from con-
scientious motives, and was, therefore, incapacitated from
taking his seat, be should move that the last words of the
oath, viz., " on the true faith of a Christian" be, therefore,
omitted. (Hear, hear.)
G.
Sir GREY seconded the motion.

Mr. NEWDEGATE entered his protest against such a
proceeding. He felt bound to oppose the motion. The
hon gentleman then restated his old opinions with respect
to the subject. At the conclusion of his remarks, it being
thought, that he intended to press for a division,
The SPEAKER directed those members who had not
been sworn to withdraw.

This was accordingly done, but after a few observations
rom Lord John Russell, the motion was agreed to without
a division.

Alderman Salomons, Baron Lionel Rothschild, and
Baron Meyer Rothschild then advanced to the table and
were sworn, the last sentence of the oath being omitted by
the clerk.

The swearing in of members continued up to the rising
of the house.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

SHOPLIFTING AT SWAN AND EDGAR'S.—Mary Morella,
a respectable-looking woman, was placed at the bar before
Mr. Bingham, charged with stealing, at 10, Piccadilly, 76
yards of silk, of the value of £15145., the property of Wm.
Edgar and others.

Frederick Gore Beaton, assistant to the prosecutors, the
well-known silk mercers of 10, Piccadilly, said that on
Saturday afternoon the prisoner came into the shop and
purchased 14i yards of silk and some lining, which came to
£3 7s. 7d., which she requested to be sent to 16, Argyll-
place. He (witness) was spoken to by a person which in-
duced him to go outside, and he then noticed the prisoner
hitching up her dress outside. He returned to the shop
and asked her to step inside, and she did so.
Mr. Robert Hope, one of the partners in the firm, said he
saw the prisoner return to the shop, he standing close to her
at the time, when he saw the silk produced drop from under
her clothes. It was 76 yards in length, and of the value of
£l5. He asked her to go into a private room and she did
so, but seemed all the while very anxious to get away.
Edward Warren, police constable 66 C, said he took the
prisoner into custody and received the silk produced at the
time.

The prisoner was remanded, there being strong reason to
believe that she is a practised shoplifter.

THAMES.

DARING STREET ROBBERY.—William Phillips, a boy
about 15 years of age, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged
with stealing a purse containing 15s. from the person of
Jane Todman.

The prosecutrix is the wife of a Thames police inspector,
stationed on board the ship Scorpion, off Millwa,ll. On
Saturday night she was passing along High-street, Poplar,
when the prisoner and another boy approached, looked at
her in the face, and at the same moment she missed her
purse, and saw the prisoner, who was next to her, pass some-
thing to his companion. She raised an alarm instantly and
seized the prisoner. The other boy ran away, and was
immediately pursued by a gentleman who was passing, but
he slipped up a court and got away. Shawas sure the
prisoner took her purse; which contained 155., and gave it
to the other boy.

Mr. Selfe—Did you see him do it ?
Mrs. Todman—No, but he was next to me, and as he
stared at me I missed my purse and saw him hand some-
thing to the other boy.

Mr. Edwin Ondler, No. 1, Trinity-square, Tower-hill,
said he saw the prisoner and another boy in company on
Tower-hill on Saturday night and watched them He saw
them close to the prosecutrix, and heard the alarm given.
He pursued the boy who received the purse, but there were
so many persons about that he could not find him. He
had seen the prisoner and another boy on Tower-hill while
the soldiers were being drilled.

The prisoner, in defence, said he was an honest, hard-
working boy, and lived in Barnsley-street, Bethnal-green.
Copping, a police-constable, No. 379 K, said he had
seen the prisoner almost daily with thieves for the last 18
months. The prisoner was convicted in that court for
stealing a pistol, and sentenced to six weeks' imprisonment
and hard labour. The prisoner was on Epsom-downs on
Friday, and he drove him off the course.

Mr. Selfe said that the prisoner was taking to thieving
as a profession, and the next time he was brought before
him and a case was made out, he would commit him for
trial. At present the prisoner was sentenced to three
months' imprisonment and hard labour.
