MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A WELL-DESERVED PUNISHMENT.—Louis Am-
let, a French cook, was charged before Mr. Tyr-
whitt with stealing some articles of wearing ap-
parel, the property of a young female named
Parkes, and also with assaulting her.
Mr. Frogatt appeared for the prosecution, and
Mr. Albert interpreted.
From the evidence of the prosecutrix it appeared
that she had been cohabiting with the prisoner, and
helping to support him by her prostitution, and
that on one occasion he came home and took away
some of her articles of clothing, and a few nights
afterwards meeting her in Coventry-street asked
her if she had gained auy money, and on her an-
swering in the negative he took off her hat, tore it
to pieces, and then gave her a blow in the face.
After hearing further evidence as to the robbery
that charge was abandoned.
Mr. Tyrwhitt, in dealing with the other charge,
that of assault, remarked that the prisoner was a
cowardly, mean fellow, who lived on a woman and
then struck her. He should commit the prisoner
for two months with hard labour, order him to pay
the amount of damage to the prosecutor's hat, 53.,
and a fine of ss. or seven days, and further ordered
him to find one bail in £5 to keep the peace to-
wards the prosecutor for six months.
The employer of the prisoner stepped forward,
and said that he wished to prefer a charge of felony
against him.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said. if there was another charge
against the prisoner it could, if thought advisable,
be preferred on the expiration of his present sen-
tence.

PUBLIC ACCuUNTS.

Mr. DILL moved the following resolutions :
That those who conduct the audit of public
accounts on behalf of the House of Commons
ought to be independent of the Executive Go-
vernment and directly responsible to this house; that,
inasmuch as the appointment, salaries, and pensions
of the officers entrusted with the conduct of such audit
are more or less under the control of the Treasury, the pre-
sent system was one which imperatively calls for revision.
The hon. member contended that the audit ought to be
under the control of the house, and the best way of secur-
ing such au arrangement was for Parliament to ap-
point a standing committee, which would result in
the work being done much better than it
was under the present arrangement. IL hoped the Go-
vernment would support his resolution.
Sir G. BOW YER seconded the motion. The Controller of
the Exchequer was the person in whose name all the
money of the country stood, and he thought it most ob-
jectionable that be should be the auditor of the public ac-
counti4. if a proposition was made at any of the public
companies in the city that the cashier was to fulfil the office
of auditor, such a proposition would be laughed at,
and such being the feeling in public bodies, tie di
acti d no

why the Government should continue a prce

THE IRISH CHURCH.

The COMPTROLLER OF HER MAJESTY'S HOUSE-
HOLD brought up her Majesty's answer to the
address of the house on the subject of the Irish
Church. It stated that her Majesty had received
an address praying her to place at the
disposal of Parli,tment her interests in the
temporalities of the archbishoprics, bishoprics, and
other dignitaries, and benefices of the E3tablishe.l
Church in Ireland. Relying on the wisdom of
her Parliament, her Majesty has desired that
her interests in the temporalities of the
United Churches of Eng'.aud and Ireland
might not stand in the way of a consideration by
Parliament of any measure relating thereto which
may be introduced during the present session of
Parliament.

Mr. GLADSTONE then gave notice that to-
morrow he would move for leave to bring in a bill
to restrain the Ecclesiastical Co,umissioners for a
limited period from making any new appointments
to the Church in Ireland. (Hear, hear.)

A NEW M'Call Anderson, in a
recent paper, says : —" During the treatment I accidentally
discovered what promises to be the most perfect black dye
for the hair which has yet been seen. After having used
the bichloride lotion for some weeks, I changed it for the
lotion of hyposulphate of soda ; and the morning after the
first application the hair of the part, which before was
bright red, had become nearly black. Ono or two more
applications rendered it jet black, while neither the skin
nor the clothing wore stained. I saw this patient a couple
of weeks later, and there was not the least deterioration of
colour, although, of course, as the hair grows the new
portions will possess the normal tint. He was by occupa-
tion a Turkey-red dyer, and was much interested in the
discoveryi though rather grieved to find, what medically
must be considered one of its greatest advantages, that it
did nut dye the linen, and was therefore untwailablo for
his purpo§es."-13ritiA Iledica/ Journal.

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to
establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor,
without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is
wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions

addition to this, the average number of attendance of the
destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be-
tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the

containing several hundred more beds had the Committee
the requisite funds to maintain them.

HUDSON BAY.

Sir C. LANYON asked the Under Secretary for the

Mr. ADDERLEY said certain negociations were in pro-

ritory, but they were not sufficiently a lvanc.::d to allow
him to state their nature at the present time.
London, England, 1868-05-12

has fluctuated between 681 and 72. The fact of New
York Central being very largely oversold, while it wag
known that Mr Vanderbilt's friends held most of the
stock, has no doubt contributed very materially to the :Id-
Vance in its price.

The general list has been more active and higher, in
sympathy with the rise in the stocks alluded to. Beck
Island has fluctuated somewhat widely, first of all advanc-
ing to 95 in consequence of a decision which virtually re-
moves the injunction upon the directors as to the use 0f
the funds, and then falling back 6 to 7 per cent. upon sub-
sequent legal proceedings.
A variety of reports are in circulation as to the position
of Erie affairs, and it is difficult to ascertain the truth as to
the situation; from all wo are able to learn, however, the
following are probably about the facts of the case:
Drew appears to have come to an understanding with
Mr. Vanderbilt with respect to • a future joint policy
In pursuance of this policy, whatever it may be, Mr'
Drew recently attempted to effect the removal of the Erie
funds from a bank in Jersey City to New York, under his
own custody. Mr. Eldridge, becoming aware of the at-
tempt, caused the funds to be detained, and construing lir'
Drew's act into a course of co-operaron with the Vander-
bilt int.?,rest, the friends of President Eldridge combined
for the purpose of displacing Mr. Drew from the treasurer-
ship and substituting Mr. Jay Gould. At a meeting of
the directors held yesterday, the attempt at removal W
made, but failed from the lack of an adequate majority. • It
thus appears quite likely that Mr. Drew has a majoritY
in the direction, prepared to support him in a combination
with Mr. Vanderbilt. This evening Mr. Drew appeared
on Broad-street after board hours, and his appearance
being construed as an indication that he had taken the
course above indicated, the price of Erie advanced freil/
68,7 to 701.

their beautiful plumage with hardness and closeness of
feather to the greatest advantage; they cannot be sur-
passed.

CARDINAL CULLEN.

Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the First Lord of the Trea-
sury whether the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, on the
occasion of the visit of the Prinz() of Wales, made inquiry
of the Government by what style and title he was to
invite and receive Cardinal Cullen ; whether he was in-
stru.lted to address him in the invitation by the title of
"His Eminence the Cardinal Archbishop of Dublin;" if
not by what title ; and whether on that occasion prece-
dence was granted to Cardinal Cullen immediately after
the Royal family, and before the archbishops of the Esta-
blished Church in Ireland, the Lard Chancellor of
Ireland, and the whole of the English and Irish nobility ?

Mr. DISRAELI said no communication had taken
place between the Government and the Lord Lieutenant
of Ireland as t•o the visit of Cardinal Cullen to his Excel-
lency. The precedency given him was according to. the
established rules of etiquette. • _

Mr. D. GRIFFITEIsaid he wished to know whether
he was invited ai "Ills Eminence the Cardinal Arch-
bishop of Dublin ?" (near, hear, and laughter.)
The Earl of Mayo said his Excellency did not address
him as the Cardinal Archbishop. •

Silas C. I 'erring, of .` Safe" fame, has recently
transferred from bis farm in Brimfield to New York the
largest horse in America. The animal is six years old,
over 19 hands high, weighs 2,0001 b., and will make a splen-
did addition to Mr. Herring's stud of truck horses. It was
foaled in Westchester county, N.Y., the mare and sire
being both Canadian.
Governor M'Cormick, of Arizona, and the Mexi-

Yolney Wiuchel, a well-known broker, in Spring-

TliE SCOTCH REFORM. BILL.

Mr. MONCREIFif asked wit m it was likely the Scotch
Reform Bill would be proceeded with. The bill had
been read a second time mote than two months ago, and
he thought it was quite necessary to know when it was
intended to proceed with the bill. (flear, bear.)
Mr. DISitAELI said the hon. geutle►nan must allow
him to be the best judge of the propriety of his own con-
duct, in endeavouring to briugabout us speedily as possible
the dissolution of Parliament. (Bear, hear.) Ho dil
not know that ha was chargeable with u ,elect in not
pressing this bill forward. It was of the utmost importance
that the Boundary Bill should be proceeded with on Thurs-
day, and he had proposed to place the Scotch Reform Bill as
the second order for that evening, but that course had not
given satisfaction. It was his anxious desire that the bill
should proceed as quickly as possible, and what he pro-
posed was to place it as the first order on the first open
day after the Poundary Bill had been advanced another
stage.

MA.RLBO ROUGII-STRE ET:

A WELL-DESERVED PLINISILMF:ST.—.Louis Am-
let, a French cook, was charged before Mr. Tyr-
whitt with stealing some articles of wearing ap-
parel, the property of, a young female named
Parkes, and also with assaulting her.
Mr. Frogatt appeared for the prosecution, and
Mr. Albert interpreted.

From the evidence of the prosecutrix it appeared
that she had been cohabiting with the prisoner, and
helping to support him by her prostitution, and
that on one occasion he came home and took away
some of.ber articles of clothing, and a few nights
afterwards meeting her in Coventry-street asked
her if she had gained ally money, and on her an-
swering in the negative he took off her bat, tore it
to pieces, and then gave here blow in the face.
After hearing further evidence as to the robbery
that charge was abandoned.
Mr. Tyrwhitt, in dealing with the other charge,
that of assault, remarked that the prisoner was a
cowardly, mean fellow, who lived on a woman and
then struck her. He should commit the prisoner
for two months with hard labour, order him to pay
the amount of damage to the prosecutor's hat, 55.,
and a fine of ss. or seven days, and further ordered
him to find one bail in £5 to keep the peace to-
wards the prosecutor for six months.
The employer of the prisoner stepperl forward,
and said that he wished to prefer a charge of felony
against him.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said if there was another charge
against the prisoner it, could, if thought advisable,
be preferred on the expiration of his present sen-
tence.

two favourable circumstances, and they are exercising
a beneficial effect in the Stock Exchange. The Funds
are very good, and produce a steady foaling in other
securities. The settlement in foreign stocks and

going forVard is chiefly connected with this event. So
far railway shares are scarce for delivery, but there is
less disposition among bears to hold out than has

The considerable diminution in the discount de-

LONDON, TUESDAY, MAY 12, 1868.

The navy estimates last evening were submitted
to the House of Commons, and some progress was
made. As usual some amendments were moved,
and a good deal of discussion took place without
much definite result. The fact is that it is very
difficult for any solitary motion or any particular
change to alter the whole character of a cumbrous
and unsatisfactory system. The fault does not rest
even with particular lords of the Admiralty or heads
of departments, but the evil influence extends
through all. Whoever sits upon the Government
benches, whoever has the ungracious task of ex-
plaining away the objections invariably raised to
the navy estimates, the result is always much the
same. Individuals are doubtless anxious to do
their best, administrators may be eager to
provide an efficient navy, yet there is
always more spent than accomplished, more
promise than performance. Every successive
Secretary to the Admiralty tells substantially the
same tale. The apparent increase in the expenses
is really counterbalanced by certain changes which
are about to take effect, or which have not been
allowed for, or by a different system of auditing the
accounts. The number of ships being built, or
about to be built, is greater than has been reported,
and their efficiency is much greater. When the
several plans now under consideration are fully
carried out, there can be no question of the supe-
riority of the English Navy over every other.
Such is the usual programme to which we have
listened, with little variation, year after year.)
There is no more reason to blame Mr. Connv than
his predecessors, and the present Government is
no doubt sincerely anxious to give the country an
efficient navy ; but there is apparently something
baneful in the influence of the Admiralty, and still
the outlay goes on with comparatively little return.
Captain MACKINNON last evening subjected an
ironclad fleet to a severe analysis, and declared that

' COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCII.
(Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Mr. Justice Mellor

and a Common Jury.)
BECKETT V. FORSTER.
This was an action to recover the sum of £395,
being the amount of half the Ascot Stakes, won by
plaintiff's mare Zenobia, and received by defendant
for plaintiff's use. Defendant pleaded never in-
debted, and payment of the money.
Mr. Besley appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Merry-
weather and Mr. A. L. Smith appeared for the de-
fendant.

Mr. Besley,
it Opening the case, stated that plain-
tiff was owner of the thorough-bred mare Zenobia,
and let her to a Mr. Elliott, of Richmond, York-
shire, for the year 1866, Elliott to bear all training
expenses, and to retain half the winnings, the re-
maining half to be paid to plaintiff. A the close of
the year 1866 the plaintiff received back the mare,
and let her on the same terms to defendant, who is
a farmer, at Tonbridge, Surrey. The mare was
trained for the Ascot races, on defendant's behalf,
by Mr. Drewitt, of Lewes, Sussex, and she won
the Ascot Stakes of £BO6, of which, after all
was now sought to be
recovered. Mai £790 came into the defendant's hands.

The following evidence was given :
Mr. Leonard Peckett, the plaintiff,was examined,
anddeposed resided at Thirsk, in York-
shire. B y that ho

perty, was in the hands of Mr. Elliott during the

Mr. Elliott a short time before witness let her to
i mare was returned by
The
Mr. Forster. The agreement was reduced to writ-
ing, and was as follows
l
Westange, Tonbridge,
1867, Jan I—l have this day made an agreement
with Mr. Peckett to take his mare Zenobia for the
purpose of racing her, and to pay all existing forfeits
and all training expenses and stakes incurred from
this date up to the Ist of January, 1868, and to re-
turn her to the said Mr. Peckett, if required to do
so, upon that date, or any previous period I may
wish to return her, free of any stakes or forfeits ;
also that Mr. Peckett is to receive one-half of what-
ever stakes the mare may win, and that for all
racing purposes the mare is to be considered my
.property during that time.-_.W. R. FORSTER." The
mare was sent to Mr. Drewitt's to be trained for
the defendant. She ran and won the Ascot Stakes.
The mare was returned to witness about the third
week in January last, but no money was paid to
him.

Cross-examined—Had complained that he had
not heard the race was to be run in order that he
might have backed her. Received a letter stating
that Mr. Arkell had a claim against Mr. Elliott in
respect of the mare, and there is an action and a
cross action between them on the subject. [Mr.
Forster, in one of his letters, stated that, owing to
the dispute as to the mare between Arkell and
Elliott, and the threat of the former that he would
not allow the mare to run at Ascot, he (defendant)
had hedged nearly all the money he had backed her
for, and in consequence Won very little by the race
for the Ascot Stakes.]
