PARIS, July 25.

The illoniteur of to-day, in its bulletin, says :
It appears that new attempts have been made to
excite disturbances in the Turkish province of Bul-
garia. Armed bands had crossed the Danube at
points between the Dobrudscha and Widdin.
Several engagements had taken place on the 21st
near Ruatchuk. The Porte has given orders to
Ilithad Pasha to march down with several battalions
to the Danube, in order to restore tranquillity in the
disturbed districts.

MURDER OF SHE AN ENGLISH SAILOR AT
GHAI.

BOW-STREET-THIS D.Y.

Edward Seminar, a Dane, described as an able-
bodied seaman, was brought up before Sir Thomas
Henry, in custody of Beck, one of the summoning
officers of the Court, on an extradition warrant,
issued at the instance of the Danish Government,
on the charge of having committed the crime of
murder at Shanghai.
Mr. J. L. R. de Koeford, secretary to the Danish
Legation, attended to watch the case on behalf of
the Danish authorities.
Mr. Koeford put in the various documents in the
case, including the depositions before the Danish
Consular Court at Shanghai, on which a verdict of
murder was found against the prisoner.
The officer Brett stated that on the 23d instant,
at about nine o'clock, he want on board her Ma-
jesty's ship Tamar at Plymouth, where he saw
the prisoner. He showed the prisoner the warrant
issued by Sir Thomas Henry, and read it to him.
He then asked the prisoner if his name was Edward
Somm tr. He said it was. Witness asked if he
was the man who had been convicted at Shanghai ?
He replied that it was. Witness then took him into
custody. The captain said that the prisoner's
conduct on board had been very good, and that he
had always shown himself ready to persuade the
other prisoners to behave themselves.
Sir Thomas Henry asked the prisoner if he had
anything to say why he should not be sent to Den-
mark to be sentenced by the Criminal Court at Co-
penhagen. It appeared that, according to the
Danish law, the Court at Shanghai had no power
to pass sentence.
The Prisoner—Then I am going home now ?
Why have I been kept so long ? It is nearly 16
months since my trial.
Beck explained that there bad been no Danish
man-of-war sailing from Shanghai since the con-
viction. After some deity he was sent away in an
English man-of-war, which arrived in Plymouth
Sound on Thursday, and it was now proposed to
send him to Copenhagen.
Sir Thomas Henry said the proceedings at the
trial at Shanghai were all before him. The charge
against him was that he had stabbed an English
sailor, who unfortunately died from the wound.
the jury convicted him, but found that there
was extenuating circumstances, the prisoner hav-
ing found the English sailor in bed with a woman,
whom he had known. Although the deceased was
an Englishman, the prisoner, being a foreigner,
could not be tried in England for an offence
committed abroad.

vv
The prisoner said he had no objection to be
sent to Copenhagen, but he denied stabbing the
man. He was convicted on the evidence of a
Chinaman, who would s wear anybody's life away.
The prisoner was committed to prison to await
the order of the Secretary of State for his surrender
to the Danish officers.
