MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTEMPT TO ENTER A JEWELLER'S SHOP.—FORTt.
NATE DETECTION.—WiIIiam Cocks was chirged before
Mr. Beadon with entering the house, 5, Little Argyle-street,
for the purpose of committing a felony. The prisoner is
also known by the name of Dolby, and is also said to be a
well-known skeleton-key thief.
Emily Garrod, servant at 5, Little Argyle-street, Mrs.
Sarah Hay's, said that on Thursday night a man wearing
a cap knocked at the street door, and asked if a person
named Charnan lived there. She said " No," and he left,
and 10 minutes after the door was opened with a key. She
had heard footsteps also in the hall, being at the foot of the
kitchen stairs at the time. She went upstairs, and there
saw the prisoner standing outside, about four feet off. She
particularly observed his beard (a very full and long one).
She gave the police a description of the prisoner immedi-
ately afterwards.
Sergeant Cole, 23 C, said Inspector Rogers, he believed,
saw the prisoner near the spot the same night.
Inspector Rogers proved seeing a man leaning by a post
at the corner of Argyle-street, and also seeing the prisoner
walking towards the other man. Shortly after he heard of
an attempt being made at .5, Little Argyle-street, and then
he spoke of seeing the prisoner, taking him at that time for
a foreigner.
7} Prisoner said that he was not the man.

CLERKENWELL.
Thomas Jones was placed at the bar charged with as-
muffing a cabman.

NAYS.

Police-constable 93 S, said this morning about three
o'clock, he was on duty in Marlborough-street, Camden-
road, when he heard the defendant loudly disputing with
some other person. On proceeding to the spot he found
the defendant in a state of intoxication, and refusing to pay
the cabman his fare. He could not persuade him to settle
the affair, so he was taken to the station.
The cabman said the defendant not only refused to pay
his fare, but also assaulted him.

The defendant denied the assault, and said he only re-
monstrated at what he considered an overcharge.
The Magistrate fined Jones 12 or a month's imprison-
ment.

Thomas Jasper Bowling, a cab-driver, was charged with
being drunk while plying for hire.
_ .

Police-constables N 550 and 175 both gave evidence to
the effect the prisoner, last night, about 9 night o'clock,
was in the Caledonia-road. He was very much intoxicated,
and drove his cab about in a very furious manner. He
ultimately run into a cart and broke the shaft of the
vehicle.

The cabman said the accident was not his fault.

The Magistrate fined him 58., and said the owner of the
cart must summon the man to the County Court to recover
the damages done to the cart.

THAMES.

THE SMOKE NUISANCE AND THE NORTH LONDON
RAILWAY COMPANY.-Mr. William Adams, engineer and
superintendent of the locomotive and engine factory of the
North London Railway Company, at Bow, appeared before
Mr. Selfe, to answer an adjourned summons, which charged
him with using furnaces so constructed as not to burn or
consume their own smoke.

Mr. Daniel Howie, the superintendent of the K division
of police, said the smoke from the chimneys of the North
London Railway Company's works, at Bow, was formerly
very great and pernicious to the neighbourhood, which it
darkened, and when the case was last before the magistrate
eight weeks was allowed to enable the company to erect an
apparatus for the consumption of smoke, and to make other
alterations. The works and the alterations of the chimney
were progressing, but not quite completed,
Mr. Selfe—Mr. Sandison is, I believe, the prosecutor ?
Mr. Howie—No, sir, only a witness. lam the prosecu•
tor in this case.

Mr. Selfe—But substantially he is the prosecutor. On
his reports the law is put into operation.
Mr. Sandison said there were many furnaces on the
works—one engine furnace, a spring furnace, and a furnace
for tires for the wheels of the railway carriages had been
already altered. He was disposed to give every pos-
sible indulgence to the o impany, because the late sala-
mity on the Hampstead Junction had in some meaeure
put the company to inconvenience, and retarded the works
on hand. He believed there was every disposition on the
part of the company to comply with the Act of Parliament
and abate the smoke nuisance.

After some further discussion between Mr. Howie, Mr.
Sandison, and Mr. Selfe, another adjournment of .six weeks
was proposed and agreed to.

the prisoner,
or he would have been plundered of that as well.
He was kicked out of the house after he was robbed,
and his watch was found at a pawnbroker's• shop, where
£2 had been raised upon it. The pawnbroker's assistant
said the prisoner was not the person who pawned it.
The prisoner said ihe sailor gave her the watch to take
care of, and sho gave it to another woman to pawn.
Mr. Selfe fined the prisoner Sc. for illegally pawning, and
£5 in addition, the value of the watch, and in default three
months' imprisonment and hard labour. The watch was
to be delivered to the sailor on his paying £l, half the
money lent upon it.

ANOTHER SAILOR ROBBED OF HIS WATCH.—Mary
Ann Johnson, aged 25, was charged with stealing a silver
watch, value £3, from the person of Mr. Donwes, a German,
and mate of the ship Harry.
Mr. Selfe—You have been to that horrible place, Blue•
gate-fields, Shadwell.

The prosecutor—Yes I have, and lost my watch.
Mr. Selfe—They would have stolen you there if they
could have made any thing of you.
The prosecutor said three girls met him in Ratcliff-
highway and took him to a house in Bluegate-fields. The
prisoner was one of them. They took his watch out of his
pocket, and then shoved him into a dark room, and he called
for the police.

Mr. Selfe directed the police to trace the foreigner's
watch if possible, and remanded the prisoner.

CRIEFF.—THE MOORS.—The sport on the moors
in this neighbourhood continues good. Tho grouse are not
so wild as they were three weeks ago, and do not pack into
such large numbers. The dry breezy weather which has
prevailed has greatly improved the late hatched broods.
Partridge shooting commenced on Monday, under most
favourable circumstances. The day was dry and fine, and
by midday a large number of partridges had fallen. The
coveys are numerous on the hill sides and low grounds, and
count from twelve to eighteen birds each—all represented
to be in fine condition. The grain fields are not cleared,
and the sport on the bess grounds cannot therefore be pro
secuted for some time ; but if the present weather continue
for another week sportsmen will have full scope in the vale
o f Strathern.

A few days ago a new synagogue was consecrated
at Cdogne, which is said to be one of the finest buildings
in the Moorish style now extant in Europe. The temple
seems to be erected in miniature imitation of the celebrated
Alhambra, although it must not be supposed on that ac-
count to be a diminituve building in itself. Covering a
surface of 1,600 square feet, and overtopped by a cupola 32
feet in diameter, it is by no means wanting in the propor-
tions befitting the gorgeous decorations of the interior. As
illustrative of the tolerant character of modern artists, it
ought to be mentioned that the architect of the new edifice
is the same Herr Z wimer who directs the work of resto-
ration going on upon the Cologne Cathedral.

The following is a translation of M, Michel Che-
valier's speech at the banquet given to the Prefect
of the Herauit

" Gentlemen,—l have the honour to propose to
you a toast whilh you are always willing to receive
—' health of his Majesty the Emperor'—a
toast with which naturally are connected the healths
of her Majesty the Empress and of the Prince Im-
perial. In the history of a great nation like ours
there are epochs, unhappily very rare, when men
devotedly attached to their country regret not to
possess the power analogous to that of Joshua, who
told the sun to stand still. They address a prayer to
Heaven to continue and perpetuate a state of things
in which their country is as regards its position
towards the rest of the world, and as regards the
individual position of France. France, gentlemen,
is at the present moment in one of those rare epochs.
France is honoured and respected abroad; she is
also feared, but only by those who are the enemies
of progress and the adversaries of civilisation.
France has fully resumed her rank. I will not sim-
ply say that a new lustre has been thrown upon the
glory of her arms; I wish also to say that she is
considered in the world as the foremost representa-
tive and champion of social and political progress.

I say political progress as well as social progress,
because the constitution of the empire has been
placed by its august author himself under the shield
of the immortal principles of 'B9. You have two
means equally sure of proving that France occupies
this grand position in the world; it is, on the one
hand, the admiration and sympathy which she in-
spires in peoples who hope for a better fate; on the
other hand, there are the expressions of hatred or
mistrust showered upon her by the favourers of the
past and by men animated by the passions of
another age. I regret that recent speeches oblige
me to place in the ranks of the latter some of the
Ministers of a great nation—our nearest neighbour,
celebrated for its love of liberty and progress, and
to which the Government of the Emperor had made
the most honourable advances for both parties,
which deserved a better welcome and a more
friendly response. At home France presents a most
happy spectacle. Literature, science, and the fine
arts are cultivated with success. Trade, commerce,
and agriculture are advancing with the steps of a
giant. Our towns are improving and becoming
more healthy from sanitary arrangements ; you have
a proof in what has been done at Montpellier."
After an eulogium on the glories of French lite-
rature and art, M. Michel Chevalier continued—
And now, gentlemen, to whom is all this due ?
Who deserves the praise of it ? To which man are
we indebted for it ? Need I ask you ? It might be
said your judgment was partial. You are, in fact,
all of you, devoted to the Emperor. But, let the
question be put abroad, to uninterested men, even to
adversaries, at London, Vienna, Berlin, St. Peters-
burg, Madrid, or Washington, everywhere the re-
ply would be the same—' the architect of this mag-
nificent edifice is Napoleon 111. It is his hand that
raised it, his hand that supports it.' This is why
France is devotedly attached to the Emperor. This
is why it has rallied unanimously round his throne
insomuch as a country could unanimously rally after
60 years of the discord of revolutions. There are
few Sovereigns, gentlemen, in the annals of history
to whom such an eulogium could be paid. Let us,
then, thank Providence to have reserved one to
France in our times, and let us endeavour to assist
him in carrying out his grand ideas. It is not only
his personal glory, it is the county which will profit
by our efforts." (Tremendous applause.)
