A CONVICT'S STORY.

In the appendix to the 29th Report on Public Peti-
tions, just issued, there appears "the humble petition
of John Parsons, a convict, No. 3,942, under sentence in
Pentonville Prison," which was presented in the House
by Mr. Denman. When 19 years old, on the 20th
day of October, 1854, he was sentenced at the
Birmingham Quarter Sessions to fifteen years'
transportation for housebrealeng,. He served the
first portion of the term in gaol in England, and in
March 1867 was transported to the convict settlement in
Western Australia, where he served four years and a half
in the convict prison. He then received a ticket of leave,
and worked as servant to the brother of Colonel
Henderson, the commandant of the prison, for two
years and a half, and then left with a certificate
for good conduct, and obtained a pardon for the
remainder of his term. Afterwards he lost the docu-
ment granting his pardon, but he believed that it
contained a condition that he might go to any part of her
Majesty's dominions, except to the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland, until the expiration of the
term of his sentence. Being desirous of remaining in
Australia, he went to Adelaide, where he was, imme-
diately on his arrival, recognised by the police as a.
pardoned convict, and taken before a bench of
magistrates, who told him that he must leave Ade-
laide in seven days, or they would send him to prison
for three years. He produced to them his pardon, and
was told by one of the magistrates that it was of no use
to him there ; that he must go back to England ; and
that if he wanted the :neans to do so he should be sup-
plied with them. Not wishing to infringe the
terms of his pardon, hp applied to a captain to be car-
ried to Melbourne, but the captain declined, on
the ground that if he to k the prisoner he would
be liable to a penalty of £lOO. Before the seven
days had elapsed, and to avoid the threatened imprison-
ment, he embarked in a vessEel bound for Singapore.
There, on landing, he was told by the police that, being a
discharged convict, he had no right to come. He pro-
duced his pardon, but was told they did not care for that,
and that he could not remain. Thereupon he hired him-
self to a Dutch vessel, called the Valvish, bound for
London, at which port he arrived in March 1863. He
returned to Birmingham, where he resided about nine
months, was recognised;by the police, who knew that the
term of his sentence had not expired, but that he had re-
ceived a conditional pardon. Then he went from Bir-
mingham to reside in Worcester with his wife, and
on the 3rd of February, 1866, was arrested there
on a charge of being illegally at large. He was
committed for trial without bail, found guilty before
the Hon. Baron Pigott, at the ensuing Worcester Lent
Assizes, and at the following assizes was brought up for
judgment before the Hon. Mr. Justice Keating, and was
sentenced to five years' penal servitude. His solicitor bad
since memorialised Mr. Secretary Walpole without success,
and he now prayed the House to take the case of the un-
fortunate convict into consideration.

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,

scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gna_
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation. _

The Vatican is still engaged in considering the
expediency of inviting representatives from the
Catholic Powers to the (Ecumenical Council. The
Pope has decided the question as regards Napo-
leon 111., and an invitation will be sent to the
Tuilei ies ; but the Holy Fattier hesitates about the
Emperor of Austria, whom many of the cardinals
and prelates have united with the Jesuits in urging
him to exclude. This faction regards the Empe-
ror of Austria as excommunicated ; but the Pope
sees a difficulty in inviting to the council the
" very Christian " and passing over the " apostolic"
potentate. As for Victor Emmanuel, nobody
mentions his name.

The improvement in the weather-has rendered it
possible to put the troops in camp through some
manoeuvres, which in a few days were conducted
on a large scale, the first division, though under
orders to return to Rome, being detained for the
purpose. The spectacle attracted to the camp a
number of visitors from Rome, and all agreed that
the evolutions were well performed, and that the
soldiers were in good condition. Some vexation
is felt at the delay in the supply of the Spencer
and Remington breech-loaders, but whether the
blame rests with the committee or the contractors
is not clear.
We have reason to believe that Mt. Du Cane,
M.P. for North Essex, and Junior Lord of the Ad-
niralty, has accepted the Government of Tasmania.
%Ir. Du Cane has been very assiduous in his attend-
ance not only in Parliament, but at the Admiralty,
and will carry with him to Tasmania an acquaint-
ance with public affairs and a readiness in the diE-
:harge of official business which cannot fail to be of
advantage to the colony. A va.tancy will be created
in North Essex by Mr. Du Cane's appointment.

CHAPTER IL

PRIVILEGE LEAVE.
XVIII. Subject to the exigenci,s of the State, an officer
who has completed eleven mouths' continuous duty may
take privilege leave for ono month without deduction fr.an
his salary, retaining a lien on his appointment, whether
substantive or officiating. Provided tbat, the case of
his holding an offi,dating.appointment, such lien and his
acting allowance will cease on the resumption of charge by
the officer to whom the substantive appointment belongs.
XIX. In the same manner, and under the same condi-
tions, two or three mouths' privilege leave may be taken
when an officer has completed continuous duty of twenty-
two or twenty-three mouths respectively.
XX. Privilege leave may, at the discretion of the local
Government, be taken in separate instalments. No second
instalment shall be taken until after the completion of six
months' continuous duty from the expiry of the first in-
stalmlut. In this case the eleven mouths qualifying for
fresh privilege leave will be reckoned from the expiry of
the first instalment, the period of the second instalment
being omitted from the calculation.
Provided that the whole privilege leave taken at any
one time shall not exceed three months, and that no
accumulation of privilege leave beyond that period shall
be admitted.

XXI. If an officer shall over-stay his privilege leave, he
shall forfeit all —salary during the time of his remaining so
absent; and, if he shall so continue absent for more than
one week, his office shall become vacant.
XXII. Privilege leave shall be reckoned as residence
and service.

CHAPTER HI.
SPECIAL LEAVE.
XXIII. Special leave, on urgent private affairs, may be
granted at the discretion of the local Government for a
period not exceeding six months. In respect of retention
of a lieu on appointment, of allowances drawn during the
leave, and of subsidiary leave, the conditions of special
leave shall be the same as those prescribed for furlough.
Special leave shall not be reckoned as residence.
XXIV. Rule XXI. shall, mutatis matandis, apply to an
officer overstaying special leave.
XXV. Special leave may bo repeated without allow-
ances after intervals of at least six years' itctual service.

ABYSSINIAN CURIOSITIES.

The most interesting collection of AbYooll3„itlet
curiosities which has been hitherto brought toget"o-1
in England is now being exhibited at the Cris
Palace. If any inferences may be drawn fr°l3jac•
display of articles having but little direct C 0 by
tion with each other, the deductions suggestea at
the collection of which we speak are—firstly', that
the Abyssinians possessed a form of Christiana
many respects similar to the Roman Catholic got
;ion ; and, secondly, that they had wade the
little progress in the art of war. Arecligiatiot
curiosities exhibited at the Palace are a 01
or tabernacle, used for protecting the sacral:B— 00s
elements, and a sacred slab corresponding t° beg.

position in the collection. The swords arc s';0014

EAST LONDON RAILWAY.-
ISSUE OF DEBENTURES.

The EAST LONDON RAILWAY CO3IPANY are
prepared to RECEIVE SUBSCRIPTIONS for DEBEN-
TURES to be issued as a mortgage on the undertaking,
under the power given to the Company by its Act of In-
corporation to borrow £166,606 against its Share Capital
of £1,400,000, the whole of which has been issued and
registered, and of which more than £1,000,000 has been
paid up.
The Debentures will be issued at par, for a term of two
years—and will bear interest from the date of issue at £6
per cent. per annum, payable by Coupon yearly, at
the London and Westminster Bank—and will be trans-
ferable by indorsement without stamp.
In order to secure the punctual payment of the interest
during the currency of the Debentures, the Company will
set apart a sum equal to two years' interest, to be invested
in Consols in the names of Trustees.
Three miles of the line, from the New-cross Junction
with the Brighton Line to Wapping (where it is proposed
to open a first section), are rapidly approaching comple-
tion ; and with the aid of the loan capital proposed to be
raised the Directors expect to open the Railway to White-
chapel by the time the Debentures fall due.
Applications for the Debentures, in amounts of £5O, or
in multiples of that amount, upon the subjoined form, will
be received at the Company's Offices, 3, Great Winchester-
street-buildings, E. 0., where Prospectuses and Forms of
Application may be obtained.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lords Justices.)
KELLY V. HUTTON.-••• JUDGMENT.
The Lords Justices delivered judgment to-day in
this case, which related to the ownership of the
Sporting Life newspaper.

Their Lordships agreed with the Vice-Chancellor
in holding that the plaintiff was entitled to one-
half share of the newspaper, and that the sale by
Mr. Hutton, the elder, and Mr. Hutton, the
younger, was void as against the plaintiff. But they
held that the plaintiff must take the half share
subject to the lien of Mr. Hutton, the elder, in
respect of two sums of £212 and £2,000, with
interest at 7i per cent. per annum thereon, and
in respect of any balance which might be due to
him on the taking of the partnership accounts.
The costs of the suit, so far as they were in-
creased by the allegations as to the sale by Hutton,
the father, and Hutton, the son, to be paid by the
defendants. The defendants' other costs to be
added to what should be found due to them on the
accounts. The costs of the appeal to be given.

The village of Hunsdon, near Ware, was on
Tuesday visited by a fire which at one time
threatened to destroy the whole place. The fire
broke out about eight o'clock in the morning in
the workshops of a builder, and rapidly extended
to the dwelling-house in front and the cottages
adjoining. A scanty supply of water was obtained
from the village pump, and brought in carts from
a pool which the long drought had not exhausted ;
but the progress of the fire was only stopped by
the pulling down of some cottages. Five or six
families are deprived of their homes, and some of
all their worldly goods, by this unfortunate occur-
rence. The fire is believed to have been purposely
caused.

THE HEAT AND THE HARVESTERS. —The dryness
of the ground and the excessive heat of the past few days
have rendered it almost impossible to work during the
height of the day. In the North and East Ridings, there-
fore, where harvest is now in full swing, the men com-
mence work at daybreak and work till ten a.m., for the
purpose of avoiding foul or five hours of the midday sun,
completing their labour in the cool of the evening. Mon-
day and Tuesday were two of the hottest days of the year,
giving 91 deg. and 92 dog. shade, and 125 deg. and 127
deg. sun readings.

COLONIAL AND FOREIGN PRODUCE.

Sugar.—A steady moderate inquiry prevails on the spot,
and rates are firm. Refined sugars, although not to say
active, meet a somewhat better demand, and are steadier
in price.

Molasses —Not a great deal doing, but rates very firm
and deliveries of fair extent.

Rum—Small sales only are practicable, but the currency
is maintained. Demerara, proof, is 811 to is 10d ; Lee-
ward Islands, 18 8d to 1s 9d; Eastindia, is 7id to is Bfd.
Rico is dull at the recent decline for white Bengal. Soft
grain is less active, but not quoted lower, the proportion
of these descriptions in stock being light.
