Our Weekly Budget.
in bed , the windows of the fine mansions in this quarter have been broken , and even the brick p iers of the house have been pulled down . The result is , of course , a considerable amount of damage , in addition to the disgraceful disturbance of honest people during their hours of rest .
A number of ghost stories are in circulation , which we trust the police will contrive to solve at no distant period . Acts of gallantry are of common occurrence among our police-constables , but it is seldom that a reward is better deserved than by Constable Thomas Hearn , 247 G , who
finding the door of Mr . Diterick ' s premises , 4 Colemanstreet , Finsbnry-square , unsecurely fastened , tried , and at once pushed it open . On entering , Hearn perceived the
glimmer of a light , which , however , was at once extinguished . He then turned on his bull ' s-eye , and saw two men , of whom one , Dillon by name , approached , and made a stab at his face . To avoid this Hearn struck him
with his truncheon . Dillon then called out , " Clarke , shut the door , " and another man , Tyrell , struck at the policeman with an iron bar , but was felled by an effectual blow from the valiant constable ' s truncheon . Two of the men then ran out , and the policeman then
seized Tyrell by the throat , and , in order to avoid being thrown , was again compelled to use his staff . Dillon , one of the two , who had momentarily escaped , was after-Avards captured . Both prisoners were found guilty , and
Dillon was sentenced to seven , and Tyrell to five years ' penal servitude . Mr . Edlin , the assistant judge , highly complimented the constable , and ordered him to receive a reward of £ 2 .
The news from abroad is by no means without interest . First , as regards this country . Lord Northbrook , finding his health will not bear another summer in India , has resigned his Viceroyship , and will return home in May , beiug succeeded by Lord Lytton , who has been a member of the
Diplomatic Service for nearly a quarter of a century , and is now H . M . Minister at Lisbon . Her Majesty has been graciously pleased to confer an Earldom on Lord Northbrook , in recognition of his valuable services . As regards our relations with Egypt , there were , a few days since , rumours
of a serious disagreement between Mr . Cave , the agent of our government , and the Khedive , respecting the manner in which His Highness's financial statements had been prepared . It is said the Khedive has given way . The
approaching elections in France do not seem at present to be causing any great excitement . Marshal Canrobert has refused to be put in nomination for the Senate , lest his candidature should be turned to account against the
ministry of his old companion-m-arms , the Marshal President MacMahon . M . Buffet , however , recommends his election by the department of the Left . M . Gambetta has
published a manifesto , in which he violently attacks the government . The Cortes in Spain is about to be elected by universal suffrage , and there are rumours that several Carlist Officers and men have been shot at Estella , for being
engaged in a conspiracy against the life of Don Carlos . The Generals of the German Army , headed by the venerable Field Marshal Wrangel , paid their congratulations to the Emperor William on New Year ' s Day . The Emperor cordially acknowledged their good wishes .
