WINSLOW, THE FORGER, AGAIN EXAMINED IN BOW STREET—THE AMERICAN DEMAND FOR WIS EXTRADITION—DECISION OF THE coURT— A HEAVY MERCANTILE FAILURE—THE LEEDS THEATRE DESTROYED BY FIRE. Loxvos, March 2, 1876. Winslow, tho Boston forger, was brought up at Bow Street to-day and remanded till noon to-morrow, A SLIGHT DELAY. The American Legation made an application to tho Foreign Office yesterday, but there has been a slight delay, and Sir Thomas Henry, the Chief Magistrate at the Bow Street Police Court, has not yet received the notice required, under the Extradition act, of this for- mal application, The delay is easily explained by the necessity the Foreign Office is under of examining the avidence submitted by the American Legation. THE rRocKRDINGS. Rather more people were present in Court this morn- ing than on the previous occasion of Winslo exam- | \nation. The commencement of the proceedings wero | dclayed twenty minutes by areport that Mr, Wontne of No. 3 Cloak lane, Queen street, would appear as { ‘Winslow's solicitor. Sir Thomas Henry asked the prisoner if he had a Solicitor. Winstow said he did not desire a solicitor, Ho did ot wish to contest the case atall. He would be glad. to waive everything, and would be only too happy to 0 home to-morrow. Sir Thomas Henry said:—I understood Mr. Wontner ‘would appear for the defeuce at tho request of the Prisoner's friends, Detective Greenham, of the Metropolitan Police, Beotiand Yard, explained that the prisoner's friends at Boston had telegraphed for Mr. Wontner to appear in bebalf of the prisoner, but the latter did not wish to Davo @ solicitor Winslow said it w or of bimeelt, Bion bo be seated Sir Thomas Henry-. Certainly. THE TRATINOSY. Albion P. Dearborn, of Boston, was sworn. He pro duced papers, consisting of an indictment found by the Grand Jury of Suffolk county, Massachnsetts, containing fourteen counts—seven for forging and altering, and seven for uttering to the amount of $40,000--a bench warrant issued by the Massachusetts authorities for the arrest of Winslow and the depositions of various persons of Boston whose names had been forged. He also pro- duced a warrant signed by President Grant and coun- | tersigned by Hamilton Fish, the Secretary of State, authorizing bim (Dearborn) to convey the prisoner to America Uf he was committed. Mr. Dearborn, replying to Colonel Cheesebrough, the secretary of the American Legation in London, said he knew the prisoner by erght. He also knew the various persons signing the affidavit, nevis were then hand Wicatmrdh not the wish either of bis family aid be was il, and asked permis.

TRIPLE SHEET. county, Massachusetts, was then read by the Clerk of the Court, detaiiing the various forgeries of promissory notes and tndorsements. The bench warrant found by the Massachusetts Court was also read, Dip NOT LiKe IT. During the reading Winslow sat looking downward, end seemed very much depressed, but otherwise hi evinced no emotion. He seems to have suffered much from confinement. He is very sallow and gaunt He is unshaven and wears a worn looking blue frock coat, On the occasion when he bas been obliged to speak his voice was husky and his toue lower than when he ad- dressed the Court last Weduesday week. After the documents had been read Sir Thomas Henry explained their purport to Winslow and asked him if he understood them. Winslow replied that he did. THE Law, Sir Thomias Henry then said that the indictment found by the Grand Jury of Suffolk county and the bench warrant had been read, He explained to Winslow that this was amply sufficient ground for committing him for trial If a Grand Jury in London had found a similar indictment against the prisoner charged here he should commit him immediately, but in an extradition case it was necessary to have evidence that the government re- quiring extradition had made a formal application to the English government. “Though I understand,” Sir Thomas continued, “that the American Legation sent the documents to the Foreign Office yesterday, I have not received any intt- mation from either the Foreign or the Home Office; therefore, I think it best to remand yoa until to-mor- Tow.”? TO SKE MS FAMILY. The prisonor asked to be allowed to see his family, who were in a private room of the court, as they were last Wednesday week. Sir Thomas Henry—Certainly. Mrs, Winslow seems less depressed than on Wednes- day. She will, probal go home in the same vessel with her husband, It seems that the authorities of Boston loft the question of the time and manner of the family’s return entirely to Mr, Dearborn’s discretion, they paying all the expenses, The proceedings then terminated. OFFICIAL. COURTESY. Sir Thomas’ manner to Winslow was as if explaining some ordinary business transaction. The delay at the opening of the court was at the wish of the American Legation, 80 that there might be no impression that the prisoner was unfairly treated or taken ata disadvantage in the absence of a solicitor who was supposed to have been retained. GOVERNMENTAL ROUTINE. The formalities requiring a day’s remand aro as fol- lows:—The American Legation request the Foreign Office for extradition. The Foreign Office examine tho papers and forward them to the Home Office. The lat- ter notifies the magistrate, enabling him to grant the extradition. The case seemed to excite but little mterest among the spectators in the court who were not directly con- cerned with it, ANOTHER HBAVY FAILURE.

Sir Daniel Lange had no part what- ever inthe deliberations of the Council of Directors, and did not represent English interests. The perusal of Sir Daniei Lange’s letters, written in 1871, would sufficiently explain to any honest man that the revoca- tion of his agency was tnevitable.”” LEEDS LOSES 1TS ONLY THEATRE. Leeps, March 2, 1876. Tho Amphitheatre in this place was burned last night The loss is about $150,000. Since the burning of the Royal Theatre in 1875 the Amphitheatre was the only theatre in Leeds. COTTON BROKERS CHARGED WITH CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD. Loxnox, March 2, 1876. Some days ago it was pointed out in these despatches that scandals in connection with the Liverpool cotton trade would shortly be made public; that there bad been failures by which questionable transactions had been brought td light. These statements are confirmed to-day by the following despatch from Liverpool:— In the Police Court to-day Robert Mann the younger and William Hurst, composing the firm of William Peers & Son, cotton brokers, were summoned to answer tho charge preferred by Messrs. Leech, Harri- son & Foxwood of having unlawfully conspired to acquire fifty bales of cotton, the property of the latter firm. ‘The defendants are also charged with stealing the cotton and with obtaining it by false pretences. Neither of the defendants appeared at court, al- though the service of the summonses was proved and neither has been seen sinco Tucsuay last, The magistrate granted warrants for their apprehen- sion.

Blanqui, the socialist, is again contradicted. - CHAMBORD'S RECOLLECTIONS. Aletter written on behulf of the Compte de Cham- bord is published. It denies that the Prince ever authorized bis adherents to vote for Bonapartist can- didates, CABINET PORMATION, The Moniteur, alluding to the proposition that the Ministers who remain in the Cabinet should sub- scribe to M. Dufaure’s programme, says:—‘The con- servatives would act wrongly if they should oppose the formation of a homogeneous Cabinet, which, while responding to the legitimate aspirations of the republi- cans, would restrain the wild, impatient pretensions of the Utopists, their rear guard, It is better that such demands as universal amnesty, separation of Church and State, stiould be opposed on behalf of the govern- ment by M, Perier or M. Simon, than by the Duc de Broglie or the Vicompte de Meanx.”” TAE TONE OF THE NATION, The Journal des Débate, controvertiug portions of M.

Verdi's “Er- pani,” now in tts thirty-third year of popularity, was the opera, and the following cast represented its princi- pal features:—Klvira, Mrs, Van Zandt; Ernani, Mr. Castle; Charles V., Mr. Carleton; Dake De Silva, Mr. Conly, Notsy as the opera is, for Verdi seems to have written it, as Moscheles described it when he first heard tt in 1845, asa “quadrillo and polka opera for voices, key bugles, trombones and big drums,” itt contains many dramatic points of interest, and in the quintette of the first act and the’ finale of the third the composer has lavished some of his very best thoughts. They may be com- pared with the immortal quartet from “Rigoletto,’’ one of the most magnificent specimens of dramatic effect in opera. The melodies allotted to the principal roles are also very enticing, and many of them havelong ago become fixed favorites in the concert room. The pertormance last evening rested main! for success on the shoulders of Mrs. Mr. Carleton, the tenor and basso being entirely in: quate to fill their rdles, To-night Meyerbeer's opera, “The Star of the North,’’ will be given for the first timo in English in this city, with the following cast: ;. Prascovia, Ekimona (viva Nathalie (vivandier), Miss Mon- dier), Mrs, Seguin; tague; Peter Michacloff, @ carpenter, afterward the Czar, Mr. Conly; George Skavronski, a joiner, Mr. Morgan; Gritzeno, a Kalmuck, Mr. H.
