THIRD COURT.

(Before Thomas Chambers, Esq., Q.C., Common
Sergeant.)
At the sitting of the Court this morning James
Underwood Joslyn, who was acquitted last night
on a charge of embezzlement, again surrendered in
discharge of his bail to answer another indictment.
He pleaded Not Guilty, and on the application of
counsel the trial was postponed to the next sessions,
and the prisoner was again allowed to be at large
on his former bail.
George Wells, who had pleaded Guilty on a pre-
vious day to an indictment charging him with
having set fire to an haystack at Edgware, was
placed at the bar for judgment.
A police-constable was called, who informed the
Court that the prisoner bore an exceedingly bad
character, and had been several times in custody.
The Common Sergeant sentenced the prisoner to
six years' penal servitude.
Mary Ann Hollis, 38, hawker, was convicted of
feloniously wounding Mary Stanley, with intent to
do her some grievous bodily harm.
Mr. Dickie prosecuted.
It appeared that the prosecntrix had been the
principle witness against certain companions of the
prisoner, and that on her evidence they had been
convicted of felony at a recent Newington Ses-
sions; and that the prisoner had waylaid and
committed a savage assault upon her with a
murderous weapon, which was produced in Court,
something like a butcher's steel, but longer with
which he stabbed her, down the head, inflicting
serious bodily injuries.
The Common Sergeant sentenced the prisoner to
12 months' imprisonment with hard labour.
Alfred Shea, 19, labourer, was convicted of felo-
niously breaking and entering the dwelling-house
of Hannah Gurney and stealing therein three money
boxes and a writing desk.
Mr, Horry prosecuted, and Mr. Dickie defended.
The prisoner pleaded guilty to two other indict-
ments of the same character; and there were no less
than eight or nine other charges against him.
It appeared from the evidence of the police that
he was a most expert burglar and always " worked"
entirely by himself and without any accomplices.
The Common Sergeant sentenced him to four
years penal servitude.
Henry Nicholls, 21, labourer, and John Waldron,
21, carpenter, were indicted for stealing one half
chest of tea, value £3, the property of the Midland
Railway Company.
Mr. Sleigh and Mr. Poland prosecuted.
The prisoners, it appeared, were well known to
the police as thieves, and were in the habit of plun-
dering carriers vans, and had been seen by the
police to follow a van belonging to the Midland
Railway Company, and to take from it a chest of
tea as described in the indictment. The evidence
was most conclusive and the jury found them guilty.
The Common Sergeant sentenced Nicholls to be
imprisoned and kept to hard labour for 18 calendar
months ; and Waldren, against whom a former con-
viction was proved, to four years penal servitude.

TOZEAU'S COPAHINE, or SACCHARATED
CAPSULES.—Copaiba and Cubeba are doubtless the
best remedies, but these drugs are of a repulsive taste and
odour, and occasion colicky pains, nausea, and gastric dis-
turbance. M. Jozeau has samesded in rendering these esin_
able therapeutic agents perfectly innocuous by increasing in
his Copahine all tne curative properties. This preparation
has been ',dented by the Paris Academy of Medicine, after
more than a thousand trials in Paris and the different Lon-
don hospitals, viz., St. Thomas's, Guy's, and St. Bartholo-
mew's, under the care of Messrs. Lloyd, Poland, and Legros
Clark.—" Lancet," Nov. 6 and Dec. 10, 1857. The Copahine,
which is in form of a pretty pink sugar plum, effects a cure
in about six days, either in recent or chronic diseases. 100
capsules, 4s. 6d. ; post free, ss. 2d. Post-office order required ;

()N THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
V STRICTURES of the URETHRA ; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By P. B. COUItTENAY,

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the

Cure of Strictures of tlie 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
which 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 management is founded. Byhis 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.

ADULTERATION OF PICKLES.

The Lancet of the 30th of November contains an
important Report upon the Adulteration of Pickles,
Bottled Fruits, and Vegetables, of which the follow-
ing is a summary :
Of seven samples of greengages examined, four
were found to be coloured with copper.
Of five samples of gooseberries analysed, three
contained that powerful and poisonous metal.
A sample of rhubarb was also coloured with
copper.
Of ten samples of pickles, including French
beans, gherkins, mixed pickles, and West India
pickles, copper was found, in some cases in large
amount, in seven of the samples.
Of five tins of preserved peas tested, that metal
was present in two of the samples.
Of four samples of haricot verts or French beans,
three were highly coloured with copper, as well as
a sample of mixed vegetables.
Thus of 35 samples analysed, copper was present,
frequently in considerable amount, in no less than
21 of the samples, or nearly two thirds.
This result the lancet regards as most disgrace-
ful, and states that there is no excuse for it what-
ever. Bottled and preserved fruits and vegetables
do not in their preparation come in contact with
copper at all, and pickles may be prepared in uten-
sils of iron. The pickles thus made are less green ;
but the fact of their being of better flavour and
much more wholesome ought to be more than suffi-
cient to counterbalance so trifling a disadvantage.
The blame in this case is asserted to rest mainy
with certain of the manufacturers and preparers of
three-articles. 'lt tbese-wcitt-ld,-sar..their faces against
a pratice so dangeioui- there would soon be an
end of this disgraceful adulteration. It sh:)uld be
known that the addition of copper to any vegetable
substance used as an article of food is a violation of
the recent act for the Prevention of Adulteration,
and exposes the parties to prosecution.

REPORTED CHOLERA AT HAYTI.--Reports having
been current that cholera had broken out at the port of
Hayti, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs of the
Republic writes to the Consul in London to contradict, on
the authority of the medical officer of the port, that there is

occurred up to the 24th of Oct.
AMATEUR THEATRICALS.—The members of the
Albany Dramatic Club gave their fourth entertainment
last evening at the Cabinet Theatre, King's-cross, the
pieces represented being " Used Up," and " Hamlet." In
the comedy the whole of the characters were performed in
a manner that gave great satisfaction to the very numerous
audience. In the tragedy Mr. Holl sustained the part of
Hamlet with much taste and ability. His delivering of
some of the soliloquies was exceedingly good, and taken as
a whole, his performance was a highly creditable one. Mr.
J. Bishop as the Ghost also very deservedly came in for a
full share of the honours of the evening. Miss Angell
made a very pretty Ophelia, and Mrs. Malcolm a very
effective and stately Queen.

TURIN, Nov, 28 (Evening.)

_ .
A bill for the temporary occupation of the con-
vents by the military was brought forward to-day
in the Senate.

Urgency was demanded for the passing of thiE
bill, as it will shortly be necessary to provide lodg•
ing for 93,000 recruits.

Baron Iticasoli stated in the Senate that the rela-
tions between Italy and France continue to be of
the most cordial nature. He said also that the
accounts of brigandage in the Neapolitan provinces
were exaggerated, that the number of brigands in
the Basilicata does not exceed 250, and that a rein-
forcement of 2,000 carabineers would shortly be
despatched into that province.

PARIS, Nov. 28.

The supplementary election in the department of
Aube has resulted in the return of the Government
candidate by a large majority.
The Paris evening papers publish " under reserve"
a despatch from St. Domingo, dated November 9,
announcing that General Santana, who surren-
dered St. Domingo to Spain, had issued a pronun-
ciamento against the Spanish Government.

The case of the A2ni de la Religion was heard
to-day. The editor was fined 500 f. He immediately
gave notice of appeal against this judgment.

TEA.—There has been a very limited business transacted,
and prices have shown little change of importance. Good
common congou is now quoted is ld per lb.
SUGAR.—The market has remained rather inactive, and
in some instances prices have slightly given way. Refined
descriptions, however, have realised previous quotations.
COFFEE.—A moderate amount of business has been done
in both plantation and native Ceylon, and good and fine
qualities have maintained steady prices. Other qualities,
however, are rather cheaper.
RlCE.—Only limited dealings have been recorded, and
chiefly for exportation, without any material alteration to
note in values.
SALTPErRE.—A ,large amount of business has been
transacted, and prices have considerably advanced, owing
to the demand on American account, the advance in some
instances having been about is to 2s per cwt., British re-
fined being quoted 42s to 43s per cwt.
TALLOW.—The market has c,uitinued dull, and prices
shown increased depression for both present and forward

spring delivery 51s 3d to as 6d per cwt.

TUE ANNUAL CONCELT OF THE E DIVISION.--
Yesterday evening the annual concert of the above division
took place, at the Music Hall, Store-street, Bedford-square,
on which occasion there was a very full attendance, and a
most interesting and well-selected programme put forth.
The band of the E Division (led by the bandmaster, Mr.
Lake) were, of course, the instrumentalists, and executed
several pieces in a manner that drew forth the warm appro-
bation of the visitors. The vocalists were Miss Eliza
Rycroft, Miss Schofield, Mr. Bennett, and Mr. Mason, and
Stevens's Glee Union. There were several encores, and
all seemed much delighted with the entertainment. The
arrangements were condneted by Inspector Pierce, and by
the excellent management of Mr. Superintendent O'Brien
the affair was so managed that the duties of the police were
not in the least interfered with. The musical movement
among the police, judging by appearances last night, is
undoubtedly, bringing the public and the police more in
harmony with each other,

ON TUE RELIGION OF THE GARTHAGENIANS.

The knowledge we possess of their idols does not tend
to raise the Phcsnician art of sculpture very high if we
compare these with those of Greece and Rome ; but then
t the rude and uncouth specimens which have survived
the demolition of their hostile successors, and the devastat-
ing effects of time, are merely specimens which corroborate
that there was a design and an intention to give them those
forms and those shapes. They are far from betraying their
ignorance of sculpture, and this is amply proved by kin-
dred arts, in which they have not only equalled but sur-
passed contemporary civilised nations. The Divine Legis-
lator's prohibition Thou shalt not make unto thyself any
graven image„ &c., had evidently reached them, and an
evasive compliance seems to have been the result. Mel-
caroth. was tile king of the earth,' and as such might'

UN7ORESEEN DIFFICULTIES.

Each side of the mosaic was ornamented by two trees
(perhaps the lotus or silphium) placed in a vase, the top
of which met in a circular ornament. To the right we
found the lower tree perfect, as well as the ornament ; of
the upper tree, a portion of the top alone was left. A piece
about three feet square, was marked out, through which
they sawed to a depth of about two feet. They then
cleared the earth beneath the cement, supporting the top
with stones. to prevent it from breaking down. Two days
were employed in this operation, and late in the evening
of the second day the piece was ready for removal. The
requisite force of Arabs was immediately called, every
step was taken in the preparatory arrangements. The
command to lift' was given, but was no sooner obeyed
than the whole crumbled to pieces.
