La be Intelligince. , 90IIRT 01 BA.NICRUPTOY.—Ocr. 21. (Before Mr. Comn3inioner Fonblaoque.) _ . Of IN NANNUAL-TEN " ADVIATIAINO AND INTNLLIGENCI ABsocrAnos." The bankrupt, Frederick Erskine Manners, was described as a retired commander in the Indian navy, of Blenheim street, Chaise', and carrying on business is partnership with Edward Sude Tucker, under the style and title of "The Loodou General Advertiaiug and Intelligence Association." in Waterloo-mad, and various other place.. The debts are only 1311., and the bankrupt attributes his inability to meet his engagement., to his partnership with Tucker. The " Association" thus formed, it seems, had proposed to eurr7 an its bueiness by hiring houses in several of the leading thoroughfare., and adapting their front. for the exhibition of advertisemeots. Mr. E. Reed supported. Mr. Atkinson, for the assignees, offered no opposition ; Mr. Griffith., a creditor, opposed in person. Mr. Reed said that the bankrupt had distinguished him self in the service, and retired on a good service pension. He had been induced to enter into some foolish speculation for pulling down the frosts of houses, and putting up as enormous revolving drum for the exhibition of advertise ments. (Laughter.) The result was the bankrupt lost 300/., and incurred liabilities besides ; his only resource was to come to this court. The creditor now opposing was one of the clerks who had been employed in the different "drum shops," and who had been appointed by the bank ruO's partner, now absent. The bankrupt, examined by the opposing creditor, said he had been advised by his solicitor to pay Mr. Cashion, landlord of one of the houses, 201. in 'full. He had paid away the whole of his 5001., and had paid the servant. as far as be could. His Honour—But why don't you go against the solvent partner, Mr. Tucker? Mr. Griffiths—We were told when we were engaged that Mr. Manners was the monied party, and that Tucker had nothing. His Honour—l see no objection to the bankrupt passing. Passed accordingly. IX MI JOHN DENT. The bankrupt was described as of Ealing, out of business. Debts, 1,2411. ; no wets. Expenditure, 1201. a year for the Let two yeah. The bankrupt attributed his failure to the insufficiency of his income to meet his necessary ex penses. He had been bankrupt in 1860, and the bankruptcy was superseded on his paying 101. in the pound, and giving his acceptances for Is. 6d. more. Mr. Allen opposed on the ground of wilful concealment of property, and because the bankrupt had been receiving assets since the adjudication. A creditor named Carr was returned as holding some houses as security, but this was inconsistent with other statements in the balance-sheet, and the bank rupt had been receiving weekly rents of other property. The bankrupt, in examination, said that be bad disposed of the house, b 7, Seymour-place, a twelvemonth ago. He bad since authorised an action for the rent to be brought in his name, and had signed a notice to quit in the ?men:. month. He had received the rent, for Mr. Bodman, to the 20th instant. He hail also received the rents of some houses in Crawford-mews, which produced 15.. a week. He had some cottages at Ealing, the rents of which he received for his daughter. He had surrendered the lease to a person who afterwards re-surrendered it to his son. He had dis honoured all the bills given under his former bankruptcy. Had not applied the money received for rents to his own Pu r;iolt, for the bankrupt, admitted that there must be an adjournment for the amendment of the accounts. The bankrupt, under his former bankruptcy, bad paid 5,0001. into the hands of Mr. Graham, the official assignee, and had given bills for the payment of Is. Gd. in the pound more. The Commissioner—The practice of giving bills for bygone debts has been constantly reprobated. It is one of the meet fruitful sources of ruin that can be conceived. There must be an adjournment is order that the bankrupt may Ale a proper account of Ilia interest in this property. QUESTION AS TO SUBSTITUTED SERVICE Or A SUMMONS. Mr. Begley appeared in support of a summons which had been taken out some time ago against a debtor who had been resident within the jurisdiction of the court. It was believed that he was then out of England, and his Honour had been applied to on the 10th October, sod had made an order for substituted service under the 79th sec.—the Barrios to be made on Messrs. Harrison and Lewis, the solicitors to the party summoned. M. C. E. Lewis said he had only appeared for the debtor to state that the summons had never been 'creed. There was an informality in the proceedings. The party taking out the summons was bound to show whether the debtor was in England or out of England. Had the latter been shown, an entirely different order would have been neces- sary. The subsequent sections rendered it important to show whether the debtor was picioeeded against as being in England or out of England. The Commissioner—l think they may take either branch of the alternative ; if they choose the wrong one they must abide the consequences. Mr. Bagley— tVe have done so ; we first assumed that the debtor was in England ; and finding that be was not, we obtained an order for substituted service. His Honour held that the service was sufficient. and added —Let the manner of service be stated on the order ; also the fact that the debtor did not appear, and then, at the end of seven days, the case will follow the ordinary course ; there will be an adjudication. (Before Mr. Registrar flazlltt.) IN HZ JOHN METCALFE. The bankrupt was a stockbroker, of Clement's-lane and Queen-square. His liabilities are about 5,2004, of which 3,6654 is due to Mr. J. W. Welch, merchant, of Church coJrt, Clement's-lane, partly for differences in the Stock Exchange, and partly for monies advanced. There are oo assets. This was the first sitting. The only debt proved was that of Mr. Welch, who was chosen assignee. IN RE FRANC TOWIR.S. The bankrupt kept the Victoria Ti ern, Waterloo•road. Debts of about AXY. were proved, and Mr. Hulas (of Use firm of Hart Brothers cud Hula, accountants) wsa chosen assignee. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION •HOUSI Mar Riemitarker wu brought up on remand, before the Lord Mayor and Mr. Alderman Mechi, sitting in petty session, charged with stealing a quantity of briarrnot pipes, and also a quantity of silk, the property of his employer, Igoe.: Maros, who carries on the binnacles of a merchant in the Eve de Montmatre, io Paris. Mr. Wootner appeared for the prosecution. The prisoner, it appeared, was, up to the month of March in the present year, in the employment of the prosecutor aa clerk, in his house is Paris, but in that month was sent to Loudon to act as agent, and to take orders and sell goods on his account. The prisoner was to be paid by commission, and he took an office in Watling-strret , for which Mr. aron paid the rent, and the prisoner drew money in his employer's name to pay fur the furniture. The prisoner was to carry on business there in the name of Mr. hlaron, his employer, and he accordingly wrote to that gentleman on several OCCLI iOllll, 'Ratios that certain goods Ltd been ordered, and they were sant to him for the pur pose of being delivered to the parties who the pri soner represented bad ordered them, and were accompanied by invoices made out in Mr. Maron's name to those parties. Upon one occasion the prisoner represented that he had an order for a quantity of pipes and some silk, and requested Mr. Maron to send them, and they were accordingly forwarded by that gentleman, accompanied as in all other instances, with invoices. From the time the prisoner had been esta blished in Watling-street up to the mouth of June, how. ever, Mr. Maxon had never received an account from him, and in that month be wrote to him telling him he should come to London to see how matters were progressing. To this letter he received no reply, and came to London, but on going to the prisoner's office found him abseut. He left his card, and on going the following day found he bad ab sconded. Mr. Moron then caused inquiries to be made, and he ascertained that the parties from whom the prisoner had stated be had received orders had not given those orders, and that the prisoner, on receiving the goods, bed disposed of most of them at considerably below their value, and had not accounted to him for the money he had received for them. The prosecutor placed the matter at once in the hands of the police, but the prisoner managed to keep at large until the evening of Wednesday, the 16th of October, when he was apprehended by a detective o ffi cer named Thomas Hubble, at Klein's Hotel, Finsbury, and after a delay of more than an hour, on account of the pri soner's refusing to accompany that officer, a party of police were fetched, and the prisoner was takes to the station. His rooms at Klein's Hotel were searched, and a quantity of briar pipes were found, which the prosecutor identified as forming part of some parcels which he had sent to the prisoner. Mr. Wontner said he believed the prisoner intended to plead guilty to the charge of larceny, and in that case, as the prosecutor would be greatly inconveuienceil by having to stop in London until the sessions of the Central Criminal Court, be would be glad if his lordship could deal sum. manly with the case. Mr. Abrahams, on the part of the prisoner, said his client was quite ready to plead guilty, and would rather his lord ship would deal with the canal The Lord Mayor, having conferred with Mr. Alderman Medd, said, taking into conaideration the inconvenience the prosecutor would suffer if he were kept until the trial, ha sod Ids brother magistrate thought the ends of justice might be met by a summary conviction, but at the same time it was secs soy that they should impose the extreme penalty is their power, which was that he should be kept to hard labour fur six calendar months. GUILDHALL. ID. Stuchbary attended yesterday before Alderman Mechi, on behalf of the Commissioners of Sewers, to ask that certain meat which hod been seized as unfit for human food should be condemned, such being the preliminary usua lly adopted when ulterior proceedings are contemplated. Mr. Stoohbury said he bad two eases, and in support at the first he called Inspector Newman, who said he found six nieces of beef on the stall-board in Mr. Pointer's shop, in Aldgate High street, and on examining them he found that they were pen tiara of a bullock which had died from disease, sad the whole at it was totally math for human food. METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS. The report of the Metropolitan Board of Works, pursuant to the act of Parliament of 18th and 19th Viet., c. 120, a. 330, presented to the board 15th August, Ist2, has just been published. The document is of considerable length, but the following are some of the most important passages. We shall continue the entracte in our next. MAIN DRAINAGE OF THE METROPOLIS. In order that these extensive works and their • ob jects may be understood, it may be convenient here to give briefly a summary of their leading features. The works are cleaved for taking off the ordinary rainfall of a drainage area of about 117 square miles, and the sewage and refuse waters of a pro spective population of 34 million persons, for dMpolluting the River Thames, and for affording efficient outran,' for the low-lying districts on either side of the river, the inhabi tants of which have been suffering from the want of deeper channels for the drainage of their localities. The comple tion of the works will enable the board to divert and till up the open sewers which have no long polluted the atmosphere and been a source of disease in the districts. The total esti mated cost of the main intercepting works is 3,080,0001. The Main Drainage Act received the royal assent on the Pod of August, 1858, and the first contract was let on the 17th of December following. The works consist of a system of high and low level sewers, on either aide of the river, en tending on the north aide from Hammersmith ou the west, to the point of delivery at Barking on the east, and on the south side, from Putney on the west, to Erith Marshes on the east ; the total length of sewers being about miles. The engineer, in designing and laying out the system, has, AS far as practicable, availed himself of uaturtion, and where that has been impossible, the pri nt eof artifi cial outfall. , by means of pumping, has been NORTHERN DILUNAGI. The high level sewer on the north side commences at Gospel Oak-fields, near the foot of the Hampstead hills, and proceeds in an easterly direction, passing under the North London Railway near Gordon House-lane, the Great Northern Railway at Holloway, sod Sir George Duckett's Canal near Victoria-park, to the River Lea at Old Ford. The total length of the sewer is about 8 miles, the size a 4 ft. barrel at the upper end, terminating in a sewer 9 ft. 6 in. high, and 12 ft. wide, with a fall varying from 74 ft. to 4 ft. per mile . Connec ted with the execution of these works et their outlet was the construction of the double storm outlet channel, a part of the northern outfall sewer from the River Lea to the divergence of the high and mid dle level sewers, the double overflow channel, for relieving the high and middle level sewers when overcharged, and the formation of a retaining wall along the western boundary of the River Lee. The engineer's estimate wee 179dX46/., and the contract was taken at 152,430/. The whole of this work bias been completed, and it now in operation. The middle level sewer on the north commences at the Counter's Creek sewer, user the Great Western Railway at Kensal green, and passes southward towards, and then eastward along, the Uxbridge-road, Oxford-street, Hart-street (Bloomsbury), Old-street (Bethnal-green), and Old Font road, to its point of junction with the high level sewer at Old Ford. Its length will be about 124 miles, including the branches, and will vary in rise from 4 ft. high by 2 ft. 8 in. wide, to 9 ft. bin. high, by 12 ft. wide at the outfall. the fall varying between 25 ft. and 2 ft. per mile. Half the work will have to be executed by tunnelling, and for nearly two mileswill pass under houses sad other private property. The works were originally let by public tender in the month of February, 1860, for the sum of 264,533/., the engineer's estimate being 280,000/. The contractor, after having com pleted works to the extent of about 12.4511., failed, and the board, acting under competent advice, again submitted the works to public competition, and a contract was subse quently taken for the sum of 329,8001. The value of the works executed up to the date of the last report was 39.000 f., and to the 30th June last 145,0001. The low level sewer on the north side will commence at a junction with the Raoslagh sewer at Chelsea, and will proceed in an easterly direction to the Victoria-street sewer. The execu tion of this part of the main drainage scheme has been de layed until the question of the Thames embankment should be settled, and as parliament has now confided to this board the execution of that extensive and important work, the sewer will be continued within the embankment from Whitehall to Blackfriars-bridge, and thus avoid any interference with the Strand, Fleet-street, lee. It will then proceed eastward towards, and pass near the Bleckwall Rail way at Towel-41in, and under it at Stepney, and under the Regent's Canal at Limehouse, the Dock Railway, and the River Lea at Bromley, to Abbey Mills, in the Essex Marshes, where its contents will be raised by steam power into the outfall sewer. At the lower end, this sewer will be about 9 ft. in diameter, and at the upper extremity probably 4 ft. by '2 ft. 8 in., with a fall varying from 4 ft. to 2 ft. per mile. As already intimated, this work has not - yet been contracted for but will, in connexion with th e Thames Embankment, receive the immediate consideration of the board. Another important work on the north side of the river is that desig grated the Acton branch of the western sewers. This wo rk extends from Notting-dale westward along the Uxbridge. road to Acton-bottom. Its entire leegth is 7,350 ft., and it varies in size from 4 ft. by 2ft. Bin. to 3 ft. 9in. by 2 ft. the average depth being about 15ft. from the surface of the ground, and the fall 4 ft. per mile. The engineer's esti mate for the work was 8,500!., and the contract was taken at 8,8504 The whole of this work has been completed at a cost of 9,820/., and the sewer is in operation. In connection with the drainage of the western mea, certain lengths of sewers, making in the aggregate 44 miles, and varying in size from aft. 9in. by 2ft. Gin. to a 41t. barrel, will have to be constructed. These winks will com prise two Ikea of sewers, one of which will commence near the river Thames at Fulham, and terminate near Chiswick, and the other will proceed from the King's road Dear Sand's Eod-lane to Fulham-bridge. The engineer's estimate for this work is 57,000/., and the contract has just been let at 46,644/. ; and the work will be proceeded with at oboe. [Since the date of the report, the contractors having withdrawn their tender, the board have felt it necessary again to submit the work to public competition.) It bee also been proposed to form a covered reservoir, and deodorise the sewage of the western area at Fulhaturields, near the Kensington-canal, but in consequeuce of a nume rously signed memorial having been presented, urging the board not to adopt that course in consequence of anticipated nuisance, the board have referred the subject to a com mittee, who are now carefully considering the important matters involved in the reference. Another extensive work on the north side is that known as the Banelagh overflow sewer. This work is in connexion with the middle level sewer, and will form a storm overflow at its point of junction with the Ranelagh sewer at Knightsbridge ; it will also divert from the Serpentine the overflow sewage and drainage which at times pollute that ornamental piece of water. The sewer commences at Uxbridge-road, sod passes though Kensing ton-gardens and Hyde-park, terminating at Knightsbridge ; it is about 5,700 ft. in length, and the size varies from 8 ft. 6 in. to a 9 ft. barrel, the depth being from 11 to 44 ft. below the surface, with a fall of about 12i ft. per mile. The engineer's estimate for this work was 24,6401., and the contract was let for 23,500/.; the out of the work executed up to the end of June, last year, was 15,500 f., and the work has been since completed, at a total art of about mow. By far the most extensive work yet let is that is connexion with the northern outfall sewer. This work comprises ' about 54 miles of double and triple sewer, making in the whole about 143 miles of 9ft. by 9 ft., extending from the River Lea, near Old Ford, to Barking-creek. The engineer's estimate was 635,000/.. and the contract let for 625,0001 The work done, as stated in last year's report, amounted to 39,0001., and the value of the work executed up to 30th June last was 320,000 f. The whole length of this sewer will be formed in au embankment of earth and concrete, varying in depth from 2ft. to 27 ft. The River Lea and six other streams will be crossed by means of iron tubes supported by iron girders. The sewer will also pass under one, and over two lines of railway. The sewage will be de livered into the Thames, during the first two and a half hours of ebb tide, at Barking-creek, about 12 miles below London-bridge, from which point it will be carried many miles lower down the river before the return of the rho,' tide. The works for the Northern drainage, to which the board have yet to direct their attention, are—reservoirs and works at the Barking outlet, the pumping station and engines at Abbey-mills, and the further works for the west ern area. SOUTHERN DRAINAGL The works for the drainage of the eouthern side of the river are briefly as follows :—The Southern High-level Sewer comprises the construction of about 9 miles 4940 ft. of newer, varying in size from 4ft. Gin. by aft. to 1001. Gin. by 10ft. Gin., at depths from 10ft. to 50ft from the surface of the ground. ►t commences at High-street, Clapham, and extends to the pumping station at Deptford-creak. The engineer's estimate for the work was 212,4371., the contract price 217.000/. The value of the work executed up to the sod of June, 1861, was 92,000/.. mid the value up to the 30th June last, about 170,0001. In connexion with this work is the exten sion of the F.ffra, or Dulwich breech. This consists of the construction of sewers, varying in sin. from 61 X barrel, to aft. by 211. egg shaped, about 3 miles in length, sod will extend from Dulwich to Crown. bill, and Westow.hill, Norwood. The eogineer's esti mate for the whole. was 20,000/., the contract was taken at 18,0(71. The value of the work executed up to the end of June last was about 4,0001. The works at the Deptford Pumping Station, embrace two contract., one for the engine and boiler houses, including furnaces, chimney shaft, coal shed., ke., a wharf wall in trout of the works next Deptford-creek. and • tow short lengths of sewers, some of which serve to connect the low-level sewers with the pump well, and to deliver the sewage, when lifted, into the outfit!l sewer, and others to connect the high-level sewer from Clapham and Dulwich directly with the outlet! sewer. The engineer's estimate for them works was 116,0001., and the contract was taken at 113,1361. The value of the work execute& during the Year uP the 30th Julie last was about 78,(Ct The other cootract comprises the pumping engines, which are to be of 500-horse power collectively, with the oecamary boilers, pumps, and other machinery. The engineer's estimate for the work was 22,0004, and the contract was taken at 22,3001. About three-fourths of this were oompleted during the peat year, and the amities and machinery are now being ' debarred ca the ground, fur the purpose of being fixed. The eouthers outfall sewer comprises the construction of about seven miles 2,240 feet of sewer, 11, feet in diameter, at depths varying from 17 to 80 feet, with • fall of 2 feet per mile, and extends from Deptford-creek, where it is connected with the Deptford Pumping station to Erith Marshes, and will, after receiving the con tents of the high-level sewer at Deptford-creek by gravita tion, and those of the low-level sewer through the Dept ford pumping engines, convey the whole of the southern drainage through Greenwich under Woolwich, and across the Erith Marshes to Half-way-Resch, at a point about 14 miles below London-bridge, The sewage will then be raised by pumping engines into reservoirs, and discharged into the river, in the same manner am that on the north side, during the first two hours and a half of ebb tide. The engineer's estimate for this work was 291,0001., the contract price 300,0001. The amount of work executed up to the end of June, 1881, was 174,0001., sod the work has since bees completed at a total cost of about 300,0001. The works at the southern outfall, or Crossness pumping station, embrace two contracts, one for the pumping engines, with the necessary boilers, pumps, and machinery,consuitlng of four double-acting condensing and rotative engines of 125- horse power, working ri pumps each, the lift varying from 10 to 34 fret. The engineer's estimate for this work was 45,0001., and the contract has been taken at 44,9011 . The other work at the Southern Dothan consists of the erection of an engine house, boiler house, chimney-shaft. coal-sheds, dwelling-houses, reservoirs, river wall, and sewers, to and from the pumps. The enineer's estimate for this part of the work was 312,000/., and the contract has been taken for 300,0001. These works are now in progress. The work remaining to complete the southern intercepting drainage is the low-level sewer, to extend from High-streqg. Putney, in an easterly direction, to the pumping station at Deptford, a distance of about 91 miles, with a branch from the Spa road, Bermondsey, called the Bermondsey branch. This latter work includes the portion of the main line below the junction, consisting of about 2 miles 3,142 feet of sewer, varying in size from • double line of sewer, 7 feet by 7 feet each to a single lineof sewer 5 feet in diameter, with • fall of about 4g feet per mile, and bas beep submitted to public competition. In carrying out the works adverted to, large bodies of water were met with. In one place it beams n . to pump to the extent of 8,000 gallons per minute, being • t double the supply of th e K en t Waterworks Company. Peat, loam, and o th er t reac h erous soi l s pre sented t hemselves, and other difficulties occurred, which at times suspended the progress of the works; but these have been successfully overcome by engineering akin, combined with the mechanical appliances of the costractore. CITY COURT OP SEWERS. The woekly meeting of the Commissioners of Sewers wu held yesterday in the Sewers Court - ro om , at Guildhall ; yr.!!teJERAZT presiding. THIF CROWDED STATE OF THE. THOROUGHFARES. For some time past the City authorities have been ap pealedto to take some steps to render it less difficult for foot passengers to cross the streets in the City, where the traffic is so great as to render crossing the routs a matter of peat difficulty and even danger. Yesterday Mr. Deputy Lott brought the matter before the court, and MeV( it, "That it be referred to the General Purposes Committee to consider the practicability of constructing iron bridges onr certain portions of the streets, whereby foot passengers can CTOSI them without danger, delay, or difficulty." Mr. Deputy ELuarr seconded the motion, which was supported by Mr. Deputy Harrison sod Mr. J. Young. Dr. ABRAHAM, however, opposed the motion. and thought there were.° many difficulties in the way u to reader the undertaking impracticable. The motion, however, was agreed to. Dr. Lsroaer, the medical officer, reported on the state of 172 house' that had been irspected during the week, and he submitted &list of 67 places for smeltery improve ment. He likewise submitted a list of places requiring further proceedings, on account of orders 0-eady issued not having been complied with. He reported that the markets and slaughter-houses had been duly iospected during the week, and that the officers had seized 3,924 lbs. 0' meat, and 7.017 bead of game, as unfit for human foci. It consisted of 14 sheep, 4 pigs, 10 quarte-s of beef, and numerous joints. About one-third was diseased, and the rest was putrid. 53 deaths and 64 births have been registered during the week. The number of deaths is a little above the average (50) for the corresponding period of the last seven years. 20 of the deaths were among children of less than five yeast of age, and 13 among old persons of 60 and upwards. The chief causes of death were diseases of a chronic character ; but there were 7 deaths from phthisis, 7 from me ienteric disease, 2 from pneumonia, 4 from bronchitis, 3 from con tinued fever, and 3 from scarlet fever, making 14 deaths from tubercular diseases, 6 from inflammatory affections of the lungs, and 6 from throne of the symotic class. HEALTH OP LONDON. It appears from the weekly return issued by the Resistae-Geoeral that the deaths registered in London in the week that ended List Saturday were 1,181. The average number of deaths iu the weeks corresponding with but week in the ten years 1852-61 is found, with • correc- tion for increase of population, to be 1,159. The rate of mortality in last week exceeded the average, but the excess is not considerable. There were twelve deaths in the week from small poi, and 61 from measles. Nine of these 61 occurred in Bethnal green. Scarlatina was fatal in 75 cases, 4of which were in Somerstown, 5 in Kennington. Sixty-three deaths from typhus were recorded, 5 of these in Horton New Town, 5 in Limehouse, and 6 in the district of Poplar. Five deaths of infanta are referred in the tables to the bead " murder or manslaughter." A girl, aged 1 year, died of " impeti , so (4 months), want of proper cleanliness." A charwoman dicd at 6, Everard street (St. George-in-theEsst), of " typhus (6 days) ;" ald it is stated that there are other cases of typhus in the same house, and that the apartment in which the death occurred was in " a wretched end squalid ccnditioo." Five persons, who were 91 years of age and upwards died in the week. A market woman died on the 11th of October is St. Giles Workhouse, whose age is stated to have been 104 vears. It is added that " she retained her faculties to the last." Lest week the births of 944 boys and 919 girls, in all 1,863 children, were registered in London. In the ten cor responding weeks of the years 1852-61 the average nember (corrected) was 1,811. The waters used in the metropolis for domestic perposes, according to the analyses of Dr. Robert Dundee Thornton, F.R.S., approach the composition which they exhibited 14..4 month. Some of the Thames waters contain rather more organic matter than in the previous month. For the sake of comparison the constitution of a well at Brighton is given, containing a large amount of organic impunty. In the Kent Company's water the small amount of organic matter was oxidised, and therefore Innocuous. At the Royal ObUrvatury, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week wu 29.608 inches. The baro- metrical readings rose to 29.93 inches on Thursday, and fell to 29.30 inches on Saturday. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 53.9 degs., which is 4 dep. above the average of the same week in 43 yearn (as determined by Mr. Glaisber). The mean daily temperature was above the average on every day till Saturday ; and on Tuesday and Wednesday it was respectively 9.9 dep. and 8.4 degs. above the avenge. The highest day temperature was 71.4 deg. on Wednesday ; the lowest night temperature was 40.3 dep. on Saturda3. The range of the thermometer in the week was themefore 30.1 deg. The mean daily range was 118 dega. The difference between the mean dew point temperature and air temperature was 3.7 degs. The mean degree of humidity of the air wax 89, complete saturation being represented by 100, which point was almost attained ou Sunday and Saturday. The wind blew till Saturday evening from the south-west. The rain-fall was 1.61 inches, nearly an inch having fallen on Saturday. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD, OCT. 21.

It wu the worst be bed ever seen. Alderman ][sobi, having Winded the beef and the hog, mid it was all bad, but the latter was the most frightful looking stuff he ever saw. It was absolutely poison, and the disease was so palpable that no one could possibly be mis taken with regard to the state of it and its unfitness for human food. It was one of those cues that ought to be prosecuted, and he trusted that the Couunisstunera of Sewers would see to it. Mr. 13itichboxy said the Commissioners of Sewers took the rune view of the matter, and proceedings would in stantly be instituted against the parties sending such meat to market. The m eat was then ordered to be destroyed. BOW-STREET. Henry Harold was brought up on remand, charged with forging and uttering a cheque for 100/. on Coutta' bank. Mr. Mullen; solicitor to the Bankers' Association, prose cuted ; and Mr. E. Lawrence Levy appeared for the defence. The evidence given on the former boning was repeated, awn e d the witueesee were very skilfully crose-examined by Mr. Ly. The constable Ansoombe, in the course of his cross-era mination. stated that when he apprehended the prisoner the latter said his name was " Harold Hardy Driesdale, or any name you like." Witness believed that the prisoner knew what he was saying. Witness had taken hold of him by his right arm, sod the prisoner asked him to change sides, " but," continued the witner,. " I knew better than to let him have his right arm free." At the otationbouse the prisoner began to recite Passages from the part of Ingo in Othello, observing, " I can go through it all myself." Mr. Levy—He wanted to recite his part before the in spector. _ r Witneits—Oh, yea, he knew what he was about. Mr. Mulleos—Sir, Ido not intend to offer any further evidence. and as the case now stands I do not see that I can do otherwise than ask you to commit him for trial. Mr. Levy submitted that the prisoner's conduct was not that of • forger. He was evidently • man of eccentric habits, and witneues could be called to prove that he was sometimes so encited that he did not know what be was doing. Even on the stage he behaved so wildly that the other actors could not go through their parts with him. Mr. Curry thought that was • question for • jury, and committed the prisoner for trial. Herr Krenser said that the prisoner did actually appear the Bijou Th: Atre. —He (Herr K reuger) had engaged him on strong recommendation, not being *ware of his eccen tricity. CLERICENWELL. Charles Taylor, who described himself as • worki n g ear -1 penter , and who looked like • respectable mechanic, was ni charfed before Mr. D'Eynoo wit h loitering in the Pep tone, e-road, with intent to commit • felony. The prisoner was NM in a garden of one of the houses in the Peutoos 'lle-road at an early hour on Sunday morning, and as he did not give a satisfactory account of himself he was locked up. The constable afterwards found a window open of the house the garden of which the prisoner was. The prisoner on the first occasion said that be was a re spectable working man, and having bad a drop to drink on Saturday night, be was not aware where be had been. He did not even know that he yea in custody until the Sunday morning. Mr. IYEyncourt remanded the prisoner until yesterday, telling him that if he was what he stated he would have no difficulty in brinziog one or two tradesmen to give him a &ander. Yesterday the prisoner handed into the magistrate a list of the persons to whom be wished to write to give him • cbarslter. No one was in attendance, as when be got to the House of Detention the governor refused, in the most positive manner, to allow him to have the use of pen or ink, and declined to find him a piece of writing paper. It was stated that this was not the first complaint of the kind that bad been made against the governor of the House of Detention, and the matter had once been brought under the notiee of the visiting justices. Mr. D'Eyncom t aid that there was hardly a day paned without a complaint being made of the conduct of the governor of the House of Detention. He should remand the prisoner until Friday next, and direct that the prison.' be allowed writing leper. He would write to the visiting magistrates on the subject. The prisoner thanked his worship for his kindness, and was then removed. LAMBETH. George Wilson, soppcTsi4l,;;;" ticket of leave man," and who described himself as of no settled rendence, was charged with being concerned with another man not in cus tody in burglariously breaking into the dwelling-house of Mr. William Ott, No. 1, York-place, Walsworth, and also with committing a s ioleut assault on the prosecutor with • life preserver. Mr. Ott, whom head was bandaged, and who had received • desperate wound on the left temple, deposed that about two o'clock on that morning Mrs. Ott got out of bed end imme diately said she felt something Wangs touch her foot, upon which he (witness), believing it to be the result of fancy, raid, " Never mind your feet, coins to bed again." He had scarcely uttered these words when Mrs. Ott screamed out, Rod said there wee were person io the mom, upon which be jumped out of bed. At this time be heard the window of the back-room thrown open, and, rushing into the room ia question, arid, on entering, saw the prisoner behind the door in au attitude to receive him, with his right arm raised and • life-Preserver clenched in his fist. Wither made • spring to grasp him, but' the prisoner was too quick for him, and struck him • desperate blow on the left temple with the formidable weapon be held. The blow stunned him for the moment, and the prisoner, taking advantage, effected his escape by the window that had just before been thrown up, awl he then lost sight of him. He (Mr. Ott) then went to the front window, and called out " Police," and constable Henry Moore, 192 P, was very soon on the spot, but by this time the prisoner had got away. In about two hours after the prisoner was brought buck to his house, and searched in his presence, when the policeman took from his pocket the half of • small silk pocket handkerchief. This Mrs. Ott at once recognised, Rod said it wee hers, when the prisoner, to • sneering manner, said she would swear anything, end asked her if she bad another of the sort? f3he replied that she had the other half of that produced, and said it was only the day before she divided them. At the conclusion of his evidence, the witness took off his coat and waistcoat, and exhibited his night-shirt, a great part of which was saturated with blood, so that the quantity of blood lost must have been mini. demble. Mrs. Mary Ott, the wife of the last witness, said that on getting out of bed her foot struck against something, and on putting down her hand she felt the coarse cloth of the overcoat of some person on their heeds and knees on the floor. The half handkerchief produced was her property, and had been placed by her on going to bed on the drawers in her bedroom, from where it had been removed as well as the box of (eery soap produced. The other half of the handkerchief, which she had only divided the day before, she then produced. Police.coestable Henry Moore. 192 P, said that on that morning he was on duty in the Walworth-read, and hear ing the cries of " Police," he went to the house of Mr. Ott, andjoutid that it had been entered by thieves. In two hours after, while passing the house, No. 4, York-place, and only three doors from Mr. Ott's, be observed a light moving about in the parlour, and on looking through the blinds he saw two men in the act of emptying something out of bole,. He instantly rang at the bell as hard as be could, and then ran round to the mews behind, when he saw the prisoner jump from the wall and run behind a cart, where he put himself into a position to receive him. He (witness) rushed upon him, and grasp ed him by the throat , when he ex claimed, " For God s sake, policeman, don't hit me. I'll give myself up to you, and it will be all right." He then secured him, end at his feet found the life preserver he pro duced. Believing him to be the person who had broken into the house of and assaulted Mr. Ott. he took him to the house, and then found in his pocket the handkerchief before spoken of. He also found other property on him. Mr. Beverley, a draper, in Crosby-road, Walworth-road, said that on the night of the 10th inst. his house had been burglariously broken into, and a quantity of valuable pro perty stoles end amongst it the pair of troweees produred, and which were worn by the prisoner when apprehended, The prisoner, who offered no defence, was f ally committed on the three charges.
