Naval and Military intelligence.

In pursuance of a garrison order, which was is-
sued on Sunday evening at Woolwich, the whole
of the 'officers non-commissioned officers, and gun-
ners of the 12th battalion, and 1 officer and 20 non-
commissioned officers and men from each of the
battalijns Horse Artillery and field batteries, were
paraded in the Riding house at seven o'clock a.m.
this morning, to witness the infliction of corporal
punishmeut upon Gunner John Cook, of Captain
Gibbon's Q field battery, sth company, 12th batta-
lion. The prisoner had been convicted of the charge
of stealing a pocket- handkerchief upon the evidence
of " a woman of the town," in whose possession
the handkerchief had been found, and who swore
that it had been given to her by the prisoner. He
received 50 lashes.
A repetition of the experiments with Martin's
shells was made in Woolwich Marsh on Saturday,
over the usual range of 400 and 600 yards. The
shells, filled with the ordinary amount of molten
iron, 281 b. each, were levelled at a bulkhead,
as on the former occasion, and the first shell which
struck the object produced the desired effect of
speedily:igniting. Fourteen similar shells were
thrown in succession, some of which passed com-
pletely through the bulkhead ; four others fell wide
of the mark, and the remainder proved to be as
successful as the first.

Some additional experiments were likewise tried,
the object being to prove the solidity of sundry
plates of steel and iron, the former 3 inches in
thickness, and the latter 4f inches. The shot em-
ployed.for the test were of cast and wrought iron,
and were fired over the usual range 400 and 600
yards, from a 68-pounder gun erected on a newly
invented dwarf platform. The effect was clearly
visible from the first shot, which passed through
the entire structure. Between 20 and 30 shots
were fired with a similar result.

SAILORS' ORPHAN GIRLS' SCHOOL AND
HOME.

The annual meeting of the friends and supporters
of this charity,was held yesterday at the Thatched-
house Tavern, St. James's-street ; the Hon. A.
Kinnaird,. M.P., presided. Amongst the gentlemen
on the 'platform were the Hon. Captain Maude,
R.N., Rev. G. Fisk, Captain Fisbbourne, R.N.,
Rev. M‘Moran, Mr. P. F. O'Malley, Q. a, Mr.
R. Smiting, Rev. E. H. Bickerstetb, and Rev. C.
B. 'Gribble. There were a large number of ladies
present, and the children of the school occupied
seats at the end of the room, and attracted much
attention by, their neat, and healthy appearance.
, The CHAIRMAN, in urging the claimS of the in-
Stitution on the meeting, dwelt on two features
which rendered it peculiarly' worthy of support:--
first) the sound Protestant Christian character
of the institution and the management ; and next,
the fact that the object of the managers was to pi,e-
pire the girls for domestic duties, to make them
good servants, and fit wives for working men.
The report,, alter expressing gratitude for the
favour vouchsafed to the institution during the
year, stated that the, chaplain reported the progress
of the children , in religious instruction and sound'
scriptural knowledge, as most satisfactory. " It was
trusted that the deep trial of faith whnh one of
the orphans had passed through was not withdut
kits blessing in the sympathy and spirit of prayer
,e;eired amongst the rest, and the strengthening of
the- Protestant principles in which they are nur-
tured. _ The _general sanitary condition of the
se,hool, was excellent. One of the principal objects
of the institution was. to train the children in tt e
,knowledge of domestic duties. Twenty-four girls,
over 12 years of age, discharge all the 'duties
of the- kitchen, the laundry, and the dormi-
tory. Attached to" the school was a temporary,
home. for fornier pupils, who were receiyed.

infirmary had been erected? but notwithstanding
that expenditure the committee bad been enabled
to invest 4001. in the funds. 745/. 9s. 4d. had been
received as the proceeds of the collection' in a num-
ber of churches on occasion of the general thanks-
giving for the peace. The school could only accom-;
modate 50 children. The next election would take
placein June, when there would be three vacancies
to be filled up. _ _

The balance-sheet showed that the expenditure
for maintenance, rent, &c., had been 1,7921. 19s.

ing 916/. 4s. Bd. subscriptions and donations, 311.

tion. Beaumont then left him, and went to the
truck in Dean street, *here it had been removed,
and witness saw him take two parcels in brown
paper from ona of the casks, with which he walked
away. Witness took him to the prosecutor's pre-
mises, when all the prisoners were given into cus-
tody. Mr. Drysdale, the manager of the firm,
identified the property produced ; and added, that

Ricketts.
When the woman got into the witness-box her
face seemed one mass of braises, and almost of
every colour. She stated that the lived with the
prisoner, and on Monday last, tbout half-past 8 in
the evening, he came home abort half-an-hour be-
fore his usual time, and becausehis supper was not
'ready he began to abuse- her ik the most brutal
manner. He knocked her about the head and face
till she almost lost the use of herey es ; but not con-
tent with this ill-treatment, whet she was lying on
the ground he kicked her once Os twice. She bad

to bear of such a state of immorality, How many
children were there
Complainant—l have two alive by my former
husband, and two since I have live} with the de-
fendant. His wife has been ill for along time, and
I have lived with them.
• The prisoner, in defence, said that be hoped- his
worship would,be lenient on account of the illness
of his wife, and because he was the tole. support of
the children. The woman got drunk and spent his
money, and that very much aggravated him ; and,
therefore, having had a little drink, he certainly
did hit her. He was now very sorry, and said that
nothing of the sort should occur again.'

that I want is for him to keep the peace.
Mr. Corrie said that this case was very bad in
every point of view. He could not be lenient,
but must pass on the defendant such a sen-
tence as will be a terror to other evil doers. He
should send him to the House of Correction, with
hard labour, for six calendar months. He would
allow the woman Bs. per week for one month. He
supposed the wife would go to the workhouse.

carried away, and amongst them those produced.
The thieves had obtained an entrance into the shop
by removing a portion of a skylight over it, and
then loweringthemselves by a rope, andthey seemed
to have taken away the property the same way.

was found, was remanded.

THAMES. -..--DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY..—W.
Shannon, a young man who is well known to the
police, was brought before Mr. Yardley on a charge
of assault and highway robbery.

The Rochester magistrates were engaged for
several hours yesterday afternoon in the investiga-
tion of a charge of attempted murder, preferred

siding in the parish of Northfleet.
Mary Ann Eliza Taylor, who was allowed to be
seated whilst giving her evidence, said she had kept
company with the prisoner for several months, and
was employed by him to assist at a refreshment stall
in Rosherville-gardens. On Thursday evening they
had a quarrel, on which prosecutrix left his service,
the prisoner on that occasion having struck her.
On Saturday evening she went to the refreshment
rooms for the purpose of procuring her clothes. Pri-
soner was there, and asked her if she intended to
have him. She said she could not think of such a
thing after what had occurred, and proceeded up-
stairs to get her clothes. Prisoner followed her up,
and again asked if she intended to marry him. She
said she did not, and passel him to go down stairs.
As she did so prisoner took a pistol from his pocket,
telling her she should have the contents of it. He
then snapped it off, and prosecutrix rushed down-
stairs out of the house. Prisoner followed her, and
on overtaking her stabbed her twice, once in each
side, so that the blood poured through her clothes.
Another young woman deposed to the stabbing,
and other witnesses stated that directly afterwards
Parker went into his room and discharged a pistol
at. himself. Two pistols and a large clasp knife
were found on him ; one of the pistols bad just

young fellow, was brought before Mr. Combe for

gold watch from Mr. Joseph Anderson, residing
at 7, Cleveland-square, Hydepark, on Epsom

he was on Epsom race-course to witness The Oaks,
and shortly before that race was run he stood along-
side of the. prisoner, close by the ropes near Tat-
tenbara-corner. iken hadhis watch safe in his
waistcoat pocket. Just-as thorace.waa over, some
one called out to him—" You've lost your watch,"
and at the same time saw tho prisoner seized by
two men, and his watch fell to the ground. Wit-
ness picked up his watch, and when at the police-
station at the grand stand he handed it to a con-
stable. He valued his watch at 201.

The prisoner made a long rambling statement,
from which it appears that he had committed the
act in a lit of jealousy.
He Wa3 committed on the 'charge of attempt to
murder.

In cross-examination by Chipperfield, wit-
ness said he saw the prisoner standing near him for
soine minutes before he missed his watch, but he
did not see the watch in his band. It was twisted
from the guard, and the ring was broken off.
Win. Blackman, 59 .17, said he was on duty on
the race-course on the Oaks day, in private clothes,
and he stood near the side of the prisoner while
that race was being run. As the horses were coin-
ing in, he saw the prisoner put his handkerchief to-
wards the prosecutor's waistcoat, and suspecting
his intention, he caught hold of his right hand,
and called out to the gentleman, "You have lost
your watch ;" and a moment afterwards' he said
that he had.
