Government in this part Cl the country is paying the labourers Bd. per day subsistence money, but when the work that they have performed shall be measured and apportioned, there will probably be a further small sum for them to receive. There is considerable destitution in the town of Itcooommon, and the people generally be in g poor, difSculty was anticipated in eats, bushing any effectual memo for he relief ; but W. Y. haying promised a boiler, Dr. Lloyd, at the hospital, undertook to organise a committee and commence a roue eetablishment. The ride from Roscommon to Culleres being performed after nightfall, we bad no opportunity of Making ourselves acquainted with the condition of the population. On the morning of sixth day, the 4th of twelfth month, William Forster drove out to the residence of "the O'Conor Don," near Cestleree. At the Castlerea poor-house a shocking state of things presented Melt the poor inmate" lying upon straw and their dormi tories being in such a state of tert clot W. F. was unable to venture into them. In this poor-house there are at resent I,oBu paupers, but the beating were admitted in so hurried a manner that there la neither bedding n clothes for them, the measles being in the house and a few rasa of fever already, it IS probable that if something he not speedily effected to remedy the evil, there will be a fearful mor tality among the inmates. In the children's room was collectednfancy a m i ser able crowd of wretched objects. the charm of i having entirely disavowal, and in iii place were to be men wan and haggard faces, prematurely old from the effects re hunger and cold. rage, dirt, and deformity. In the school-room they spend some hours every day in hopeless, listless idleness ; though there ere bo th a sclu e emaater and ntietrees, there are no books nor slates, nor any of the apparatus MI a aChOOl, It WO consoling, horn- ever, to notice that those children who have bees in the poor-house a few weeks look so much better and healthier than those recently aduiitted, as to be easily distinguishable from them; and, poor as the inmates seem, no doubt they are enuch better off in the house than out of doors, and they de. eeribed their suffering , from faraine previously to admission as being very great. One boy stated that he frequently parsed an entire day at a time without any food whatever, and many saying that for several weeks they hal nut known what it waste hive as much food as would satisfy weir hunger. Two cases of death, if not from starvation, at by elast trom the absence of nourishment during an Innen brought on want of proper food, occurred in Ca t the week before we visited the town ; the individuals having applied for admission into the poor-house, but the coneideretion of the irr wee being poatponed, death stepped in and carried them o the I n te r of two days that elapsed. W. and his companion; on their way from Lestlerea to Boyle, called at lough Glyn, a large old house, the seat of Lard Dillon, but inhabited by his = Ch ar les Strickland, and his Mater. Oidy one of the was at home, who seemed a very energetic and clever young woman, and entered warmly into the question of the Mine of the surrounding country, which she represented u being in a fearful condition of Mertes, and that their means of relief were totally inadequate. In the evening we reached the town of Boyle. In this place, until lately, there was not much destitution, the poor-house usually not having more than 250 inmates, though it now contains 556; the nurobe this time last year wee not more than M. This poor-hoes' is in good order and very clean and cam. tunable, and the children looked healthy and they are making good progress in the school. The condition of the poor previously to their obtaining admission into the workhouse is one of great distress, many of them declaring that they ha v e not tasted food of any kind for =gieght hours, and numbers of them have eaten nothing but or turnip, fo and r days weeks. This statement is corrobo rated by the dreadfully reduced elute in which they present themeelvai, the children especially, being in a condition of Mar tratim and ravenous with hunger. Last year there were no such arta as thee, the poor ousting into the workhouse then from the eure of temporary difficulties, and remaining there a compara tively short time. The weekly met of food in the poor-house is 2a per bead, which sum includes medicine and food, but no other item. On the way from Boyle to Carrick-on-Shannon, we bed a very inte resting interview with s noblemen and gentlemen of influence., One of whom estop to lus °Miami that, in the event of a ramie of meow putting a stop to the public wore., the people would .4 plunder the neighbourhood, and that if the weekly supply of food into the county of Roscommon were to acme, starvation would Mmue, not only to the poor labourer., but even to the ekes above them, aa the stock of provisions in the county is not equal to 'fortnight's consumption. In thin opinion he was supported by the gentlemen present, and though they were evidently men of high bearing and mord courage, they could not look upon the coming crisis without a degree of iipprehreion. Lord -- mid that though the work was a great one, it was the duty of every man to do what he could in his own neighbourhood for the relief of the poor, however little that might appear to be. In reply to this, William Forster= to the effect that there lea Divine providenceruling over all and that if we put our trust in Ilim he will preserve zed strengthen no through all the trials that may be permitted to assail us. In the opinion of these noblemen and ecutlemen, the wore feature le the general embarrassment of the Mori poor -homes, which have kept numbers of the poor from actual narration, but they declared that it treasury, government must keep them up; for they stated that at present, with some elocution, th e landlords of Ireland are =in such difficult citimmetances from their estates being einem. and their rents not regularly paid, that they can just now do comparatively little. After receiving the good wishes of the com pany, and being furnished with a list of gentlemen in the country, on whom he wee recommended to call, and having had kind invitations to see the different member. of the party in their own houses, W. V. took leave, and we more. eed to Carrick-on-Shannon. At this place our first visit was to the poor-house, and as the board Of guardians were then sitting teethe athebielon of applicants, a most and heart- re nding scene presented itself. Poor wretches C in t l he i last stage of famine imploring to be received into the house ; women who hail six or seven children begging that even two or three of them might be taken in, as their bestride were earn. lag but Bd. per day, which, at the present high price of provision, was totally inadequate to feed them. Some of these children were worn to skeleton.% their features sharpened with hunger and their limbs wasted almost to the bone. From a number or painful cues the following may be selected. A widow with two children, who, for a week had lintel/40d on one meal of cabbage each day : these were admitted into the poor-home, but in eo reduced a state, that a guardian observed to the master of the house, that the youngest child would trouble them but and a very short time. Another woman with two children, near her - confine mot again, whose husband had left her a month ago to seek for work, stated that they had lived for the whole of this week DPI* two quarts of meal and two heads of cabbage. Famine was written In the faces of this woman and her children. In reply to a question from W. F., the guardian. expressed their opinion that them state ments were true. Of course, among so many applicants es there were in attendance, 110, a great number were necessarily refused admittance, as there were but thirty vacancies in the house. The guardians appeared to exercise great discrimination and impartiality in the selection of the mostdestitute objecte, but some or those who were rejected wereso fur spent that it is doubtful if they wouldall reach their homes alive, so several of them had to walk sor 6 Irish miles. Wm. Forster having expremed er wish todistributt bread to these poor crea tures, that they might not go quite empty-handed to their desolate bounce, fortio,prinds weight of bread were procured, being all that, on so a notice, could be obtained in the town of Carrick. meethennon. On this bread being given to them, the ravenous voracity with which many of them devoured it on the spot spoke strongly of starvation, or of a elate nearly approaching to it. One woman, however, was °reeved to cot only a very email portion of her bread, giving as a reason, that the had five children at home, to whom she was taking the bread, as without it there would not have been a morsel of food in thetreabin that night. This poor-house is in a deplorable condition , there are 1,050 inmatrin it, which are consider. ably more than the number for which it was built. Of these 170 are in the hospital, did thuri fevetland dysentery, and there are no proper means of keeping the sick avert from the healthy. The deaths are at the rate of about twelve each week, while the guardians are so poor, and the union so much in debt, that they obtain their daily food on credit; the workhouse is unprovided with bedding, insomuch that in the hospital two and three poor creatures are lying in one bed, and many of them have melting but straw, while in the poor-house at large there is nothing but straw for any of the inmates. To persons who are aware of the extreme horror of fever entertained by the poor in Ireland, their anxiety to come into this workhouse affords an in dication of the extent of suffering in the neighbourhood : the actual pressure of famine is such as to compel them to run the risk of contagion to escape from positive starvation. Throughout this journey it was William Foretell observation that the children exhibit the effects of (Amine in a remarkable degree, their faces looking wan and haggard with hunger, and seeming like old men and women; their riprighteness is entirely gone, and they may be men sitting in groups by the cabin doors, making no attempt to play or to run after the carriages. Another indication of the distress o the ' Country is, that the pigs and poultry have entirely dim th e poor baying no longer any mean, of supporting them. Vo e r a the people justice, they're bearing their privations with a remarkable degree o f tallow and fortitude, and very little clamorous begging is to be m et with upon the roads, at least not more than has been the care In lra bad for many years. The above is a very feeble attempt to convey as idea of the state of things in this district of the country, but Wil liam Fortier had completely formed the opinion that the statements la the public newspapers arc by no meant exaggerated. With regard to actual death from starvation, W. F. met with flee ease. in different parts of the county of Roscommon, but none of three could be traced - io anything more than illness produced by want of proper food, and • aggravated by the want of nourishment during its progress.—Wi , ;live, I remain respectfully thy friend, emirs Caner - SCOTLAND. at tho Clarence Hotel, " to consider the propriety of imme di.tely forming a committee to secure the return of the Right Hon. T. M. Gibson at the ensuing election." The meeting had been called by requisition, and there was a very full attendance of members. James Kershaw, Esq., was called to the chair, and a letter was read Item Mr. Alderman Potter (who resigned the presidency on the nomination of Mr. Bright, and has since signed the requisition to Lord Lincoln), stating that if a separate committee was formed for Mr. Gibson, he should be most happy to act upon it as a friend of the right hon. gentleman. After a short discussion it was held that the formation of Mr. Bright's committee had so entirely taken up the whole of the leading and influential Liberals of the borough, that it would be impasible to form a distinct committee out of the party fur Mr. Gibson; and a resolution was unanimously come to, appointing the present committee for Mr. Bright a joint election committee for Messrs. Gibson and Bright The canvass for signatures to the requisition to Lord Lincoln is still proceeded with; and it is now stated that his lordship is to be in Manchester on the 9th proximo, when the requisition is to be formally presented, and his lordship's answer received CURIOUS DISCOVERY AT BLACIPOOL.—Mr. Thomas Ray, of Blackpool, informs us that on Tuesday last, he found in the interior of a cod-fish, taken that morning off the coast, a small bottle, corked and sealed, and containing a letter, of wi.ich the following is a copy, verbatim et lileratim " March 27th, 1845.—1, James Wenney, Passenger on Board the Ship Wisdom, of Sydney bound for Liverpool Captain Cobet commander this day, March 27th, being the third day's storm and our vessel in a very fractured leaky state and not likely to stand it long, I, though in very distressed state of mind wrote these few lines, thinking some friendly person might find it and be kind enough to make it known to the news agents, so that my friends might sometimes get to hear of me if I never return home which I have very little hopes of, has our Captain has given all hopes up except the storm abate and some vessel pick us up, as our masts and riggin is all gone and pumps choked and the ship making water fast.

Campbell, of Trinity College, announcing his intention of offering himself as a candidate at the next election, " in conjunction with Mr. Adair, on the liberal interest." NORFOLK. REPRESENTATION OF NORWICH.—MT. B. Smith, the liberal member for this city, has positively declined to resume h's seat after the dissolution of the present parliament. The Norfolk News assures Us that Mr. Gurney and Mr. liume are not at all likely to come forward as candidates ; and that at the late meeting of the liberal members of the council, although the resolution in favour of Mr. Peto was not passed, the appointment of a committee to correspond with Mr. Smith was nut in opposition to the original proposal, but as a firmer basis for united action, by procuring that gentleman's formal disavowal of his intention to come forward ; and every opinion expressed was in favour of Mr. Peto as the candidate. the Norwich Mercury asks that before the electors are called upon to give their surt to Mr. Pete, they should have the means afforded th p e po m of judging of , his political opinions. KENT. MATDSTONS CHURCHYARD. -111 the middle of how many towns are there crowded churchyards, yielding out, in a dearee imperceptible, save in the returns of 'torts/Up, disease and death amongst the living. Even our own healthy town of Maidstone must, from this cause, be infinitely less salu brious than it ought to be. The graveyard of All Saints' Church, in the angle of two rivers, one of them (the Len) spread out and half stagnant, so u to give out the highest possible amount of insalubrious evaporauons, and crowded to an extent scarcely exceeded in the most populous part of the metropolis, every south-west wind that blows (and the south west wind blows for nine months eut of every year) must of necessity waft into the centre of the town the offensive exha lations of these two fertile sources of malaria. It is highly creditable to the Paving Commissioners that they have in sisted on the cleaning out of the river Len. Still, the crowded church and the crowded churchyard remain in a state calculated to excite serious apprehension in all persons who have turned their inquiries to this subject. Why should not Maidstone have a public cemetery in some pleasant spot, at a distance from the town--say, Penenden-heath, or Bar ming-heath ?—Maidstone Gazette. fine arts. LANDSEER'S DEER-STALKING IN THE HIGHLANDS. —A very splendid and novel work; enormous in size for a book ; almost too large, though designed for a drawing-room table, the whole surface of which it may monopolise. The designs are by Edwin Lind ner, and in his best manner. The title-page is a head of a stag, with a noble crown of horns, forming a fine opening for the lettering of the title-page. This is a litho graph by Mr.Haghe, and is clever. Then follow the illustra tions—" The Combat," an etching, by T. Lindner; " Wait ing for the Deer to Rise," a mixed mezzotint/4 by J. H. Robinson, a capital illustration of a may we say in Mr. Scrope's best style? " Angus. Bid him keep weel back wi the dowgs, er' I baud up this buss o' heather an' tale' a leuk ahint it whatna like beast he is—bat be sure ye diona mak ony steer, he's terrible near." The third is an etching by Mr. T. Landseer, " Watching the body." The fourth, " How to get the deer home," a mezzotint° by T. Landseer (the deg just as watchful as the artist). The fifth, "The Last Scene" (the noble animal lying on a large stool, limbs stiff and extended), by T. Landseer. The sixth, " The Poacher's Bothy," an admirable mezzotint° by Charles Fox. " He had, for concealment, placed the stag in the box-bed— his own rough couch." A clever picture of an alarm ; the dog eagerly rising at the first noise; and just as eagerly restrained by the knee of the Highland poacher. The whole work is characteristic of the publisher's tact in cater ing for the " better few." Firm Aare IN hat/am—lreland, though a large contributor to the fine arts, bas been scantily supplied with the means of their development. The Royal Dublin Society is the only institution which supplies general instruction in the arts, and with comparatively slight resources, it has proved eminently successful in the number and distinction of its pupils. The forward movement communicated by the Art Unions to the popular admiration of the arts, and the high excellence which many of our manufacturers obtained in the beauty and richness of the fabric, have generated a desire to par ticipate in the advantages of your schools of design, of which we have not a single one. The manufactures we chiefly pos. seas are exactly of that nature which the knowledge acquired in such schools would greatly promote. For instance, carv ing, modelling, die-sinking, paper-staining, fancy weaving in silks, poplins, tabinets, ribbons, damask, carpets, and hearth rugs; ornamental painting, silver chasing, ornamental cast ing.in metals, calico-printing; and in the female department, various kinds of embroidery, satin-stitch, tambour-working, &c.,in all which a knowledge of the arts of design would prove a valuable aid. The National Art Union has addressed a memorial toLordlicsaborough on the subject, suggesting the establishment of four schools in the cities of Dublin, Belfast, Limerick, and Cork, and it is gratifying to add that the progress of the manufacturing and decorative arts has not escaped the attention of the government. In reply to the memorial Mr. Labonehere writes Dublin fatle, Dee. 12, 1546. Gentlemen,—l am directed by the Lord-Lieutenant to acknow ledge the receipt of a memorial from the National Art-Union a/ kg land, urging the establishment of schools of design in this sentry, similar to them which have been founded in several of the manni► Luring towns of England and Scotland. It Is undoubtedly of pen importance to give to the manutastures and decorative tr ades of Ireland that encouragement which such in stitutions afford. This subject has already engaged the attention of Government ; and, in consequence of a communication which I ad. dressed to the President of the Board of Trade, steps have been taken which, I trust, will speedily lead to the accomplishment of the object which you have in view.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, 7. Ilaughton, Esq., D. Dunlop, Esq. H. Lanorcents. probable that any attempt should be made by bankers and capitalists, however powerful, to aggravate the embarrassments of the occasion. It must be of no small consequence, besides, to the wealthy capitalists in question, to lend every support poesible to the maintenance of general credit at a period urgency, seeing that it is no t without difficulty that the prices of shares in the Northern Railway of France, and other un dertakings, in which they are largely concerned, are upheld at such rates as to enable weak holders to raise funds w for the p a yment of calls, or to sell out into stronger hands ithou suffering a ruinous loss. Any inconvenient run upon the Bank of France, throng whatever agency excited, could only end in such a limitation of its loans and discounts as must be seriously injurious to all interests, and to the values of all descriptions of securities. Some further large shipments of sovereigns by packet and merchant-ships to the United States are currently spoken of, and are probably going on, but so far the statements of amounts are too vague to 6:relied u ' pon and parties likely to be informed profess to be sceptical in the matter, further than the remittances already known to be going forward by next steamer. The Bank returns of the next few weeks may throw some light on the subject. ENGLISH FUNDS. Bank Stock, 205 6 South Sea Old Annuities. 931 3 per Ct. Red.

Yesterday *was the name day for the transfer of shares, as to-day is pay-day. The account is understood to be more than usually extensive. The dealers were appa rently too much occupied with the arrangements for the set tlement to enter upon fresh business. The market was dull, but prices generally remained with little alteration. There was less activity in the Liverpool share market, and some of the speculative lines were a little easier. Birming ham and Oxford, North Staffordshire, Ambergates, and Cheshire Junctions were done at a trifling decline. The old stocks were pretty well maintained. Manchester and Leeds a good deal inquired after. The amount of business done on the whole was not extensive. There was not so much business done in the Manchester market as on the previous day, but it was buoyant, and the same prices were fully maintained. Birkenhead, Lanca shire, and Cheshire Junctions fetched 1 9-16 5-16 pr. ; Bir mingham and Oxfords, 91 ; East Lancashire (5/. paid), 31 pr. ; Great Northerns at par; Liverpool, Crosby, and Southport, I pr.; Manchester and Birminghams, 751; North Staffords, 4 3-16 cash, pr.; West Ridings, 21'pr. At Leeds the share market was not quite so active as on Tuesday, though it was one of the settling days, and prices were scarcely so firm as they have lately ruled, but there was no variation that deserves to be quoted. The Leeds stock exchange will close after the meeting of to day, and re-open on Monday, Jan. 4. The market at Bristol was acted upon by the accounts of the London market, and was somewhat heavier. Caledo nian Old shares were done at 291; Caledonian Halves for cash realised 21; North Staffordshire, 41 pr. ; Midland New 401. shares, 321; Midland New 501. shares, 61.

Ravarmito room THE RUILLL Poretanos.—Sir,—l read with much pleasure the article a the Errs", of the 23rd on the subject of the Army, and was gratified to observe that its composition, condition, and future improvement, had come under the consideration of the government. Seeing that steam can approach us at any time, and that our wooden walls can not now afford the same amount of protection and security as in former wars, it does behove the government to e s tablish by every con stitutional means an internal national force, so as to be ready for the delenoe of the oountry upon any emergence; and it appears to me the plan suggested of enlisting the recruit for ten years, and at the expiry of that period to enrol him as an out-door pensioner, is well calculated to secure such a force, and assuredly nothing could have a greater tendency to improve the character of the army than by procuring the young soldier from the rural popula tion. Two or three sesmons ago, Lord Palmerston strongly re commended that the militia should be re-embodied, and Mr. Sidney Herbert, when in office, gave notice of the introduction of a new militia bill, and upon one occasion stated from his place In the Howe of Daimons, that he hoped to be able to carry the provisions of the bill into effect without the necessity of having recourse to the unpo pular system of ballot; and if the mode was, to re-embody the militia by beating up for recruits in the various counties upon a b...urity, there cannot be a doubt but it would have been successful ; and by procuring recruits from the rural districts, the improvement of the army would follow as a matter of course, for doubtless great demoralisation and bad habit; are engendered by the young men re and employed in our large cities and manufacturing towns. g et n ge militia therefore be embodied upon • small bounty for a defi nite term, and a further bounty held out to every militiaman upon his volunteering into the line for the period of 10 years, his servitude in the militia not to be deducted from said term of 10 years : by such an arrangement a national force would at all times be ready for the defence of the country, and a most efficient arid respectable nursery for the regular army maintained, and the present s ystem of recruiting , b ased upon .elap.trap and fraud, would of necessity he abolished. But the reel( utt would, nevertheless, always have it in his power to enlist direct into the line if he pre ferred doing so to 'erring a previous probation in the militia. I eon induced to make these observations, front having within these few days had much conversation with some of the agricultural and other peasantry in two of our neighbouring Scotch counties, among whom found a general dislike prevailing against the ballot, not from any reluctance to serve the country, but because they consider that it bears in an undue proportion against the poor man an com paredwith the rich; the peasantry I allude to admitted that a bounty were offered for the militia that the tire regiments would soon be filled up, and that rwelft7J teering into the line would soon become general, as few of the men who had been accustomed to hard work would ever think of returning to field labour, after haring served one, two, or three years in the militia ; and supposing the government were to follow up some such plan as now proposed, I am of opinion that it would work well, and the object which you have alluded to in your paper of the 23rd would be fully accomplished; because, if young men were to enlist into the militia, averaging from eighteen to thirty-five years of age, few of them, comparatively speaking, would have arrived even at the prime of life when their term of ten years' service had expired, even in. eluding their previous probationary servitude in the militia; and thus a well-trained and effective body of men would be gradually distri buted over the United Kingdom, while the militia would continue not only to do the home duty, but be a legitimate and steady nursery for the line.-1 am, sir, A St•SCRIBE.X., AND a nib:ND 10 AIXT. - -. inburgh, Dec. 211. man's private room, unlock his c u p boards, and carry off what he might find there. If ho had any right in the pro perty he must seek his legal remedy, and not resort to law less force. Mr. Alderman Moon granted a warrant, but restricted it to articles the private property of Mr. Green, and which had not been purchased fur the joint use of the parties. Mr. Clarkson now crosoexamined Mr. Green, who said h was formerly a clerk in the Birmingham Railwayeatablish e ment, and then became an accountant. An action was pending against him for detaining a bankrupt's books, but he should prove he bad a lien on them. He had detained anot h e r bankrupt's books till th e Court of Bankruptcy sails fled his claim. He bad referred the landlord of Assam Villa to Messrs. Vere. Had permission to do so, though he had no account there. If he had been advertised in the swindlers' list he was not aware of it, and should seek redre.s. He bad employed a solicitor to compound with his creditors a year ago. He was nothing now. He had been nothing since Mr. Henry Coleman lent him 1,5001. As to when he had last any money . of his own, Mr. Clarkson had no right to fish into his private business.—Mr. Locke re-examined him, when he stated that he was introduced to Mr. Perry to advise with him on his pecuniary difficulties. Mr. Perry introduced him for a like purpose to Mr. Henry Coleman, who was involved by railway transactions. Ile resolved to F o on the Continent, leaving witness 1,5001. to speculate in railways. Ile bought shares, sold them, and gave the money to Perry, by direction of Henry Coleman. —Mr. Alderman Farebrother asked if Messrs. Coleman retained the property they had carried off, or had converted it to their own use I—Mr. Moss said they retained it. —Mr. Alderman Johnson intimated that his col leagues agreed with him that the taking was not felonious, because the Messrs. Coleman believed t hey had a right to take care of the property.—Mr. ar said that relieved him from much that he hid to say ; but he proceeded to make some caustic observations on the evi dence of Mr. Green. He bad never in his life heard a more impudent charge of felony.—Mr. Green threatened to make Yr. Clarkson pay for what he had said about him.—The magistrates concurred in dismissing the charge against Messrs. Coleman.—Mr. Green claimed, and Mr. MOM con ceded to him, possession of the four candlesticks, snuffers, and tray. BOW-STREET. TILE BUILDING ACT. SANITORT CLAlJBl3.—Timothy Afahony was summoned before Mr. Henry, by the parish officers of the Strand union, charged with having allowed a cellar on his premises, in Shire-lane, to be inhabited, contrary to the provisions of the 53d clause of the 7th and Bth of Victoria. The defendant pleaded guilty. Mr. Dowling, chairman of the board of guardians, ' said that the summons was the first of the kind which had been taken out under the Building Act. The cellar belong ing to the defendant had been occupied by a woman, her husband, and four children, all in the greatest distress. No application for relief was made to the parish officers until the husband went to the medical officer of the union, who attended in time to deliver the poor woman, and seeing that she and the family were in the greatest distress, he made a representation to the relieving officer, who rendered them every assistance. The circumstance having come to his (Mr. Dowling's) knowledge, he directed the proper person to examine the cellar, and he found that it was a s'one cellar, without any light, and altogether quite unfit to be the habi tation of a human being. He had the whole family removed to the union as soon as the poor woman could be removed, and directed the present proceedings to be commenced. In addition to the cellar already mentioned there was another inhabited by a man and his two children and a poor old woman. The man and his children had been removed to the workhouse; the old woman would not go. In the cellars were no articles of any kind, and the beds the poor people lay upon were made of straw or shavingy—Mr. Henry said it was very desirable that this act should be more generally known, and as the poor people constantly said that they did not see the printed notices, it would be advisable if the board would give every person in their district notice of the penalty which they incurred by the infringement of the act. He understood, however, that the board did not in this case wish to press for a penalty, and be should not inflict one; but should dismiss the summons on payment of the costs. b.LLEreeeliKivEedNWfroELL.—Hß.

C. 51.; A Norfolk Lady, 51.; and one half of a 51. note from T. 8., who reserves the other half until the receipt of the former shall be announced. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ECCENTRICITY. Mr. Thomas Tell°td Campbell, son of the late poet, was sum moned before Mr. Hardwick for having assaulted Mr. Chas. Hartnung.—Mr. llartnung said he was a watchmaker, at No. 47, Warwick-street, Golden-square, where the defend ant also lodged. On Monday last, he had occasion to open the staircase window for an instant, when the defendant came out of his apartments in a great rage and seized him by the collar, and, a ft er striking him, threatened he would be the death ' of him. The defendant then armed himself with a poker, which he brandished about, and renewed his threats of vengeance on complainant. Had it not been for the land- j lady of the house, complainant had no doubt that h he should have s ustained further injury. As it 11 was, his shirt and habiliments were torn in the scuffle. The complainant proceeded to say that the I defendant was generally believed to be not in posses %Livia of sound intellects. The defendant had been in confine ment for some time, and during the period he had recently 4 been at liberty, he had conducted himself with so much 1 eccentricity and violence as to afford ground for the opinion that he ought to be placed under restraint —Mr. Rowe, brace-maker, Air-street, said the defendant lodged with him for a short time. The defendant was very hasty in his behaviour, and had acted with so much violence in conse quence of some imaginary offence,that witness was obliged to say he would call in the police.—Mr. Campbell denied the assault. He was inconvenienced by the comylainant opening the window, and, on attempting a remonstrance, he was assaulted.—Mr. Hardwick said defendant must find bail, himself in 501., and two sureties of 251. ach. BENEVOLENCE.—E. W. M. has sent 101. for the poor-box. SOUTHWARK.—ATTEMPT TO ROB A DRUNKEN MAN. —Yesterday, George Nicholson, a flashily-dressed young man, described as belonging to the swell-mob, was charged with attempting to steal a watch and guard from the person of William Turner, a midshipman. The complainant was called, but he admitted that be was so intoxicated the night before, that he was totally unconscious of anything that passed, but that he was still in possession of all his property. Coombs, a policeman of the L division, stated that between the hours of 12 and 1 o'clock that morning, he found the midshipman lying on the pavement near the Victoria Theatre, quite drunk, and on going up observed the prisoner standing over him, in the act of taking his watch and guard out of his waistcoat pocket. Knowing the pri saner to be a thief, he seized him, upon which the latter t said that what he was doing was an act of good nature, and that he had no intention of converting the ; watch to his own purposes, but should have deli- it vered it up at the station-house. The prisoner being is e known as a " family man," he was taken to the station house, after a most determined resistance. When at the I station-house, the prisoner was observed to throw down a silk handkerchief and a pair of gloves, which turned out to belong to a gentleman who had been in the theatre, and * who, on coming out, and perceiving the midshipman in such a condition front intoxication, interfered for his protection, and for his pains, was robbed of the above articles. The 4 policeman added that the prisoner had been known to him for the last twelve months as a member of the " swell mob." Other policemen having identified the prisoner as the cha racter above represented, he was committed for three months, with hard labour. WESTMINSTER.—A CABMAN OUT or A THOUSAND. —Thomas Chalkley, a cab-driver, was charged with assault. ' It appeared that George Webster was walking along Dean street, Westminster, at about two o'clock that morning, in company with • friend, when defendant, who was in com pany with two or three other men, suddenly came up to him, and without the slightest provocation knocked him down. A policeman immediately came up, and defendant was given into custody.—Complainant's statement was confirmed by his friend.—On the depositions being read over, the defend ant began blubbering, and dropping down on his knees, implored mercy, and assured the magistrate " that he was a cabman out of 7 a thousand."—Mr. Broderip said he should send the case before a jury.—ln the course of the afternoon bail was put in. WOOLWICH.—POVERTY OP THE WOOLWICH POLICE COURT. —Yesterday, the sitting magistrate, Mr. Jeremy, called attention to the state of the funds of the poor box. Whilst the benevolence of the public is felt at every other police-court in the metropolis, not a single penny has reached the [ funds of this court, which are, with many urgent claims upon thaw, reduced literally to the last shilling. tab) intentgente. SECONDARIES COURT.—VESTIRDaT. Before Mr. Secondary Potter. JOBBINS V. TEMPLER.—RAILWAY LIABILITIES.—This action was brought to recover 31. 12s. 6d. of the defen dant as a managing committeeman of the Direct Leeds and London Railway. In the autumn of 1845, a railway with the above title was projected, and on the 21st of Sep tember a Mr. John Robinson Gibson applied to the plaintiff, a lithographer and engraver, to execute a map of the line and the country it was proposed to carry it through, to connect the metropolis with Leedi. The map was accordingly done, and used by the committee, but unfortunately the scheme turned out abortive, and no less than 262 actions were at once brought against the committeemen. To the present demand the defendant, a gentleman residing at Reigate, pleaded the general issue, on the ground that he was not a member of the provisional committee of the line in question when that debt was incurred.—Mr. J. R. Gibson depo'ed that he was the chief originator of the line, and ordered the map as the agent of the company about the 21st Septem ber, but he did not recollect whether the defendant was on the committee before October 7, nor would he swear that his name was placed on the list by his autho rity. Witness was solicitor to the company while it was in existence, but now he was in partnership with the plaintiff's attorney. A decision of Chief Baron Pollock was quoted regarding the question of liability, but the learned Secondary said it was not needed; and after Mr. Hance had addressill the jury for the defence, the Se condary said, that every case of this character must stand or fall upon its merits, and the decisions of the learned Chief Baron of the Exchequer, in particular cases, were but secon dary considerations. There were three points upon which the jury would have to adjudicate, and which were—was the defendant on the committee at the time the order was given—did the committee sanction that order—and was the article necessary for the purpoees of the company ? He was of opinion that the deter is liability had not been fully made out. Verdict for the defendant. KNIPE V. SMITH AND OTHEES.—COPYRIONT MAPS. — This was an action to recover compensation for a professional injury sustained by the plaintiff, through the negligence of the defendants. It appeared that Mr. Knipe, the plaintiff, is the proprietor of a geological map of the British Isles and part of France. The defendants supplied the paper for these maps ; and that for the 1844 edition was so soft that it would not, take the colours, and after it was printed upon, the sheets were sent to be hardened at the defendant's manufac tory ; from which, however, they never were returned, nor did the plaintiff have any knowledge of what had become of them until the present year, when he found them in the market —For the defence it was argued that the plaintiff had informed the defendants that the maps would be worth nothing if the paper was not hardened ; and they having failed to harden it they had been thrown aside and sold as waste paper.—The jury found for the plaintiff—damages 381. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Before Mr. Commissioner Evans. IN ES FtowEa.—This bankrupt, who was a publisher, came up to pass his last examination. His debts are about 3,0001., and the assets 3001. The expenses are about 5,0001., and the profits 3,0001. Mr. Duncan appeared to sup port the bankrupt, and a creditor named Owen, com plained that his (the bankrupt's) conduct had been fraudulent.—Mr. Commissioner Evans: That will be an objection for the certificate. The question is, are the accounts satisfactory ? The bankrupt was then examined, by which it appeared that he was a surveyor to St. George's-in-the-East, but had no stated amount of income. He had received 1,5001. in seven years, through his private practice as a surveyor.—Mr.Commissioner Evans : It will be a question at the certificate meeting, whether he aught not to lay by part of his income for the creditors. The bankrupt appears to have spent more than he ought to have done. Mr. Duncan : That is the only point I feel, your honour. The accounts were considered satisfactory and pamed. THE " IRON TimEs."—Yesterday was appointed for the application of Smith, Holt, and Neale, bankrupts (who were proprietors of the Iron Times newspaper), for their certifi cates. Messrs. Holt and Neale attendled, but Mr. Smith had not been able to'pay the fees. Mr. Berry, a creditor, opposed the bankrupts on the ground of extravagance w hilst in a hopeless state of insolvency, and other grounds,the principal being against Mr. Holt, for receiving large sums of money, and not duly accounting for them, and also for incurring i debts on false representations. The objections fell to the ground. The certificates were granted, and protection to Mr. Holt (as be was threatened with arrest) until the certifi • cats had been allowed by the Court of Review. Protection was extended for Mr. Smith to come up on a future day. --.... o~lllllf of the French Colony of Algiers, ix conformity "du i i r , mds nerved from the Mter-of-Wa, preicribuig ; for a lir or railway from Algiers to 131klah. protLiime that tfig gr ongsangfrent-et-ehatscroes, are authorised to enter all mug s sa d mihowkiwreit titrougli_bodsrh, and do anything e i gg wei. sorb dr Ititlafeaßd do ram with which they .ue dungen.
