TURF DISCLOSURES.—Mr. Hedworth Williamson, well known on the Turf, has, it seems, been guilty of some transactions which are likely to lead to serious proceedings. He is well known in racing circles as the owner of Blackdown, Accident, and other horses, and his animals were trained at R. Drewitt's, Lewes, Sussex. Accident, Blackdown, and Greenland, understood to be his property, were sold at Tattersall's on Monday, the two former for 510 guineas each, and Greenland for 210 guineas_ The following notion for the apprehension of Mr. Williamson has been issued :—" One Hundred Pounds Reward.—Ferdinand Hedworth Williamson.—A warrant was, on the 6th day of January last, issued from the Southwark Police-court, for the apprehension of the above-named person, on the charge of having, by false pretences, obtained from John Henry Fitch the sum of £3,000. The above-named Williamson resided at Chailey, Sussex, and was magistrate of the county. He is 30 years of age, about sft 6in high, florid complexion, and very stout face, with projecting front teeth. Wears no whiskers or moustache. Was last seeiri at Woolwich. £25 will be paid on apprehension of the said Williamson, and £75 on further conviction. Information to be given to the inspector, at the police station, Stones'-end, Borough ; or to Messrs. Lewis and Lewis, of Ely-place, Holborn." Various rumours are in circulation as to the precise accusation against Mr. Williamson, but it is stated that he had falsely mortgaged his horses for large sums of money.  The Southern Railway Company has just inaugurated an iron bridge, 1,530 feet in length, over the Garonne at a few miles from Agen. It consists of 17 elliptical arches, of a span of 68 feet each. The whole structure is remarkable for its lightness and elegance of construction.—Galignani.  The town of Bressuire (Eeux-Se' res) was three days since the scene of a melancholy suicide, committed by a son in the presence of his father and mother, who were unable to prevent the act. A lad named Bodin, only 17 years of age, son of a tradesman, after spending the day in drinking, went home to his father and asked for more money, that he might finish the day as ho had begun it. On hearing his father's refusal, he stabbed himself with his pocket knife, and was about to repeat the attempt when his father prevented him. The wound he had inflicted, however, caused his death. It appears that the boy had repeatedly pretended to commit suicide in order to obtain money from his father, but had never hurt himself before, and it is supposed that on this occasion he strack with greater force than he had intended.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.  EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF INTENDED SUICIDE AT TILE BELGIAN EMBASSY.—Simeon Fougers, a Dutchman, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with intending to commit' suicide at the Belgian Embassy, 21, Arlington-street. Mr. De Casteau, of 25, Mount-street, an attachd to the Belgian Legation, said—The prisoner came to the Belgian Minister's house, 21, Arlington-street, yesterday, and gave the Minister some papers to read. The Belgian Minister said he could do nothing for him, and that he must go to his own Minister. The prisoner said he could not go there, and then said, " You will see who will be the victim of this," at the same time taking-out a knife. I rushed to him and took the knife from him. .  Mr. Tyrwhitt—When he used the words did he seem to speak of himself or of the Minister ?  M. De Casteau—l cannot tell. A constable was then sent for, and he was given into custody.  Mr. Tyrwhitt—Did he speak En_lish ? M. Do Casteau—No, French, I believe. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Had he ever applied to the Minister before ? M. De Casteau—He had written several letters to him ?  Police-constable King, 52 C—l was called to the Belgian Ministry, and the Minister said he thought the prisoner was mad. I took him to the police-station. Sergeant Nathaniel Druscovicb, of the Detective Department, Scotland-yard, who has charge of the case, said —The document produced is the one presented by the prisoner to his Excellency, and sets forth the prisoner's grievances against the Dutch Government. It commences " In the presence of God, the last words of a dying man." Mr. Tyrwhitt, taking up the knife, a most formidable weapon (the blade shooting out from the handle by touching a spring)—You do not call this a knife, do you ? Sergeant Druscovich—lt is a stiletto. I also found at the prisoner's lodgings a letter addressed to the landlord. The letter which was addressed, "Mr. J. H. Jones, 9, Finsbury-place, North," was handed to Mr. Tyrwhitt. Mr. Tyrwhitt—l will open the letter. It appears to be a letter to his landlord, and contains a telegram to be sent to his wife. The letter was as follows  "Dear Sir,—l pray you most mental send this telegram so soon as you have unclosed this letter. This is the wish of one who is dying.
