Ther lordships adjourned at 5 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THIIRSDAY, F. 1. (Contioaed from yesterday's Express). After Mr. Mottssit. and the Earl of Games:ma had spoken. Mr. BRIGHT expressed his opinion that the critical choice of Mr. Denison was one of the best that could have been made. and the la; se of nine years had couliraied that opioioe, as the right hoe. gentleman had shown all the ne eetaary qualities of capacity and impartiality, and had achieved a success is his high functioe. He heartily sup ported the =Mien. He took the opportunity of drawing attention to the rule which compelled all members to awed the levees and dinners of the Speaker in omit dress or unifotin, urging that such a custom was inapt for a popular assembly and ra'her out of date. The fact of so many new members being in existeem rendered it the more nece airy to revert to the subject, and to urge its inconveoience ; and though of mane he did not put his objection oe the mere ground of expense, yet he knew of a case in which it had oust a member fifty guineas to appear in the required ors tume at a Speaker's dinner. He stated that the late Mr. Cobden, for the twenty-four years during which he sat in parliament, was precluded by this rule from accepting the kindness and hospitality of the Speaker ; and be did so from so mere caprice, but for reason. which were conclu sive to his min& He (Mr. Bright) did not object to any member who so chose appearing in a gorgeous costume but he thought that those who, like himself, had no such &rite, might be permitted to visit the Speaker in a quieter garb. He threw out to the suggestion to the Speaker in the hope that be might be induced to repeal the Act of 'Uniformity on this point. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I rise in consequence of the suggestion of my hen. friend to add a single word to what has been said by him in calling the attention of the house to this subject, which is undoubt edly cemented with the convenience—it may be with the opinions or feelings—of many members. I think my bon. friend will sgree with noe—l almost think the house in general will feel—that my right hon friend, with re specs to whom this propoeal is made, cannot be expected at once to deliver a biodiog judgment on a matter of such Pave importance. (Laughter.) I think the right hon. gentleman ought not to be compelled to commit himself without a full opportunity of considering the question. (Hear, hear.) I are sure that any communication which any of us may make to my right hon. friend, either now or at any future time, touching either the dignity or eomfott of any member, will be considered hyhino, if he be chosen for the chair, with his accustomed patience and courtesy. (lieu.) Mr. DENISON who spoke from the front bench below the gangway on the &material side of the house, said—l offer my most grateful thanks to the house fur the honour it his proposed to confer open me. lam much beholden to my right hon friend and to my noble friend for the manner in which they have proposed and seconded my nomination. I can hardly venture to mums to myself much of the corn. mend/time they have been pleased to pass upon me. Such words, the favour of the house, and the gracious way in which that favour has been conferred by the unanimous choice, for the third time, of the house, may unduly elevate me in my owe estimation; but I bare a strong and abiding awe of many imperfections and short oomines, and I attribute the favour of the hou s e to an iodufgeet spprecistion of my imperfect services. That 1 have mdmvoured to do my duty as a zealous and faith ful servant of the hones I can truly say. (Loud cheers.) , What I have been enabled to do you all know, but it would not become me to enlarge upon the subject, nor would you desire that I should make professions for the future. I will not occupy the house with one sonemesary word ; and I will only my further, that I submit myself to the house with ell possible respect. (Cheers.) The right hon. gentleman was then led up the hones by the mover and seconder to the chair, Mr. Mooeell taking him by the right hand and Earl Grosvenor by the left. Having taken his seat amidst cordial cheers, the right hoc. gentleman immediately rose and addressed the house is the character of SPEAKER as follows : I offer my thanks once mere to the house from this chair, for the great bosour conferred upon rue by being called to it. Is looking &mod the house I miss, sod we all miss, ogre familiar face. The house has sustained a great loss. We have loot him who was the foremost man amongst ne— the leader of this house—one who by his great abihtios, by his long experimion, end by a rare combination of qualities bad obt.ined for himtelf the confi !mice of this house. You remember, often, after long sittings, when the patient* of the hotpre was nearly exhausted, how his good temper and his genial spirit composed the ruffled surface, and sent os home at peace with each other ;rod with him. (Hear, hear.) I do not propose to pass an eulogium upon LordPalmenton. but I feel bound to otter Oleos few words of regret, esteem, and grateful recollection. (Cheers.) From the great body of this hone/ —those who were ruy colleagues in the past parliament—l ask f. r a renewal of that generous support which they have on former occasions occluded to me. There are a largo number of members be this house who take their seats here for the first time. They succeed to no ignoble inheritance. I will say to them that much of the fame of this house in the conduct of the debates and in the transaction of busi ness depends en the rules and orders which it has framed for itr owe government. A knowledge of these t tiles will be useful to every member, and the better they are known the more sore I shall fool of general co-operation io my endeavours to uphold them. (Hear, bear.) If any thffi• milty connected with the conduct of business should occur to any member of the house. I trait he will communicate with me, and it wit give me pleasure at all times to re ceive him, and confer with him in a spirt of frank and friendly oennseL (Hear, boar.) I offer my respectful thanks to the house. The right hon. gentleman was here again greeted with general eheeriog. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I presume, sir, in my own name, mod I amours I may add in the tame of °Heir members of this house, to tender to you the most cordial cosgratulatioos on your baying been for the third time, by the unanimous voice of the house, placed at the head of the Commons of England. (Cheers.) Sir, you suc ceed to • chair eocompassed by growing duties and growing responsibilities. The mutts of modern society make them solves felt within these walls, in the increasing amount both of public business and what is termed private business. Your duties in the lattiir respect are io a great withdrawn from the observation of the world, at they are partially withdrawn even from the observa tion of members of the house ; but the long experi ence of those who are cr items:tot with that im portant breech of our occupations has convinced them that the whole of that department never was more 'carefully, never wee more efficiently, at tended to than during the period you, sir, have occupied that chair. (Cheers.) As regards the public business of the house, all those who hear me, and, I may ad,l, the public out of doors, are oompetest judges of the m.soner in which you have performed your arduous functioes, as is indicated by the adept but noaci moue cots which has just been passed by the house. Bat it is true that in some respects you have difficulties to eonfrost oven beyond those that •riee from the constantly increasing ells upon the time, diligence, and wisdom of the house. We have seen within a generation • great change in the composition of the house, and likewise • greet change in the contpo.ition of those constituencies by which it was chomp. At the period of the Reform Act, the effect of the important alterations of a constitutional character which were made was immensely softened by the continuing presence on the benches of this house of numbers of men who had gained distinction and acquired authority under the old parliament iry system. From year to year, from par liament to parliament, one by one they have pas-ed away. So lately as oa the last oomeion when you were chosen to ill that chair, there were remaining three persons who bed attained to great parliamentary distinction and bad filled high offices before the pawing of the Reform Ball. The bust was my noble friend Earl Russell, who has been removed, in acknowledgment of his public services, to the other house of the legislature. Seciodly, there was my right hoe. friend, the late Sir James Graham, than whom few members had over made more valuable contributions to the conduct of the bunnies of this house. The last end the most eminent of them all, from the place he occupied on these benches sad from the favour sad attachment of the bonze, was Lord Palmerston. (Hear, bear.) It is not necessary, and it watdd hard'' , be seemly for me, after what has bees said by my right hon. Mewl and also by yourself, to dilate on the character of that great man, the more especially as it may be my duty very shortly to make a proposal to the loose which will naturally introduce the subject. But one tiding I will venture to say. You have glanced at the loss experienced by yourself by the lamented death of Lord Palmerston ; bat there is one other person at heat is this house who may venture to compete even with you, sir, in the tame of that loss, sod that i. the humble perso• who has now the honour to address you, eonsideneg the responsibilities which have devolved upon him. (Cheers.) We have, as was to be expected after the brie of so many years sine the last parliament was aitited, had as unusual number of gentlemen chosen for the first time to the high duty of representing the interests of their fellow countrymen within these walls. Bat there is antaziegstreogth in the incline= of this house, and I em happy to say there is equal aptitude is English gentle. men for conforming to the spirit of those traditions. It was remarkable to observe, from parliament to parlia ment, bow little those who watch the proceedings of this he from without, or those who take part in its premed kop within these walla, are able to nark my differsece in llt• firmness, regalanty, and distiplim of this beam, in mosequemse of the large isfesion of new members which naturally follows • dissolution of parliament. however, we lamest the heavy lessee we have sustained, we may still reflect with pleasure that there are oa both skim of the hones mess wham ability. whose experience, whose ohaisorksy awl whose pest sathority, win noble awn to a 4. THE EXPRESA,„ . FRIDAY EVENING. FEBRUARY 2, 1866. . , alma you efficient aid in thedisebargeof thesearduoto duties which will devolve upon you, sir. Well, we may I am sure look forward with confides.. to a coationanoe of that vigilant jealousy for liberty sad that immovable regard for rd•ir which are the two main pita,* of the &gnaw and" efficiency of this house. (Hear, bear.) You, sir, will coo. tribute your full share, from the elevated position you occupy, to the ecoomplishmeet of that t isk, while each of us in our several spheres will be ready to back and socontl 70° to tbe beet of our ability ' • and in conclusion, I will only echo the word s ex p r essed by my noble friend behind me, that health and strength may be spared to you for many years to discharge the high functions which you have been cared upon to perform in a manlier the most pleas ing to your own mind and most calculated to elevate your amniotic in the eyes of the country. (Cheers.) Mr. DISRAELI—I hope, sir, I may be permitted on be half of gentlemen on this side of the Louse to offer their congratulations to you on an event so gratifying to the house as that which bee just occurred, and the more so as, from the mode in which the business of the morning has been conducted, if I were silent you might suppose that your re-election to the chair had been matter of indifference to us. However, I believe lam expressing a very geoend feeling on this side of the house—a generel feeling of regret that your nomination was not seconded from this side of the house. (Cheers.) Os previous occa sions that method was followed. There are, I believe, precedents for such a course under such circumstances, and even supposing the precedents did not exist I think that under the particular circumstances we might have esta blished a precedent, because it is au occasion when the general and cordial feeling of the hones cannot be testified in too striking and significant a manner. Sir, you have to-day, been re-elected to that chair for the second time. I have myself always been of opinion that reelection to that char is in fact • greater distinction than the original choice. Political mew:mines and parliamentary passions may contrive to raise en individual to the eminent poet which you now oc cupy, but they cannot keep him there. For that the pos session of great and personal qualities are requisite—a na tural courtesy, adequate learning, firmness, and impartia lity ; and above all, that inspiring sees, of honour which is our surest guide in the perplexities of public life, and which has ever been, and I trust ever will be, characteristic of English gentlemen. (Hear, hem.) It is, sir, because the house has experience that you possess those qualities that you have been re-elected to-day for the second time to the chair. (Cheery.) It is because we feel on this aide of the house that you poises! those qualities that I am authorised oe behalf of gentlemen hers to offer to you the tribute of their respect and oongratula tios. (Cheers.) I would now be silent but for an unex pected allusion to another subject. The right hon. gentle man has referred to the increased responsibility which has fallen upon him ; but I can ware the right bon. gentleman of what indeed he used not be reminded, because, though he appears now for the first time as the leader of this house, he has sat in it many years as one of the most emi nent and distinguished of its members, and his experience moat have told him that on all occasions whenever the order and honour of tbsbouse are concerned, the leader of the house may appeal to the support of those who sit opposite to him with tee same confidence as he would appeal to that of b is friends who sitou the same benches with himself. ( Heer. ) I appeal to the right boo. gentleman whether there is not one cause why on this occasion in the responsible office which he now occupies he may feel some distrust. Sir, I do not think that it is possible for us to reassemble under this roof—many of us who have sat in all the parlia ments of the Queen, and some of us who have been members of this house during three reigns—and not feel emotion when we mark that that familiar form which you, sir, have referred to, ate no longer be observed amongst us—a form connected et) intimately with the history of this country. and the most important trans actions of this house of parliament. It is impossible to deny that the disappearance of such • character from the scene, of so much sagacity and so much experienes, and I will say of so much fame, must in some degree and for some time derogate from the authority even of the House of Commons. But, sir, it is not on this occasion that I wish to refer to the character of a great statesman, but rather to the happy disposition of the men, which lees indeed a charm to the struggles and toils of public life. By his good temper and his good sense be facilitated the Course of public business beyond what perhaps it is easy to imagine or ascertain, and lam sure that it must be a goners] sentiment among us when we express our hope that the influence over our debates may not soon mese of his genial spirit, and his mature and moderating wisdom. Bat, sir, notwithstanding his loss I shall express my hope that the present parliament, in intelligence and public spirit, will not be inferior to the preceding parliaments of the present happy reign. (Cheers.) The house adjourned at five minutes pest three o'clock. THE PEOPCSED RECISION OP THE PRATER BOOK. To the deputation yesterday of the president and council of the Awiciation for Promoting a Revision of the Prayer-book, and for Securing Purity and Simplicity in the Public Worship of the Church of England, Earl RUSSELL, in reply, observed that, in the first place he was very ready to hear all that could be said. Is the next place he must tell them that he had not yet had au opportunity of consulting any of his colleagues, or the arch bishops, or bishops on the subject of the memorial. He was therefore quite unprepared to give any opinion upon the question ; but he might state that it struck him there was far more difficulty in attaining the object desired than there was in having a commission with regard to the terms of subscription. The alterations in those terms, so wisely devised and so happily adopted, gave to all parties in the church increased freedom, and they an no longer bound by supposed obligations which they formerly thought they had incurred ; and therefore every person, whatever his opinions might be, provided they came within the rings of the church of England, was satisfied, whether the result was agreeable to ow party or the other. NV hen, however, they came to ask for alterations in the Liturgy (as to which he had no desire to express an opinion at present), it was obvious that there were other parties in the church who would ask for and expect alters. tioes in a different direction, and would desire corns change in the terms of some of the articles, so as to m►ke them consistent with their own interpretation of them. There fore, instead of having a general agreement in which all could concur, they might erwrieoce the danger of offending two parties of opposite views. He did not wish to give any opinion on the proposed alterations ; but he did wish to cootraveat rather than forward that disruption in the church which, they thought, might happen. He should much regret if by say act of his, such a disruption should arise. As by bad already observed, he had bad no opportunity of consulting anyone upon the subject ; but be would bring the question before the cabinet before he gave any answer in substance, and he should especially consider it necessary to refer to the Archbishop of Canterbury be fore be could advise her Majesty as to the course which be might think should hereafter be adopted. The deputation then thanked his lordahip for his omit tesy, , and retired. THE LAMBETH VESTRY AND TEI CASUAL POOR. —Theordinary muting of this vestry took Owe last night the rector of Lambeth, the Rev. Mr. Lingham, occupied the chWr. After the usual rowise business had been gone through, Mr. Giles, in moving the adjournment of the vestry, stated that,'" at the present moment ao one could read any publication from the highest to the lowest in the land without seeing something about the amid poor of the Lambeth workhouse, or could go anywhere without bearing it a topic of cooveratioe, he should wish to know whether the guardians of that establishment were about to make a report on that subject. It hid occupied' great deal of public attention, and no one had the slightest knowledge how the matter had been arranged. He would therefore ask, if there were any guardian present, whether that body meant to give an explanation or not? They had heard on the last meeting what one of the guardians had to explain on the matter; but they should like a report to the vestry from the whole body, sad the question was would they furnish that or not.—Mr. Churchwarden Fowler was not going to discuss the matter at the present moment, bat he must sty that he thought that the sooner the government relieved the guardians from their present responsibility the better, and he did not think that there could be any peace or quietness in tbetelestablishmeuta till govern meat did so. It seamed to him most monstrous that the poor inmates of a great public institution should be roused in the middle of the night persons of the lowest and most degraded character. Se th a state of things was most abominable, and the government onset to interfere. U. had lately visited a workhouse in Smithfield, where he found that etch pers:4l had to go into • bath, and then cross a yard to the sleeping-room, without anything on except the rug which he carried oe his arm. When they got there be would admit that they bad oemfortable lodgings, but the casual ward of Lambeth was eqully so. Mr. Stiff (a guardian) stated that the guardians had a special meet;ng moused to coo- Bider this question, when no doubt the subject would be discu.sed with great attention. With regard to the "c -caution as to the condition and treatmnit of the casuals, he had no doubt that, as the guardians of Lambeth were entirely blameless in the matter, these assertions would recoil upon the beide of those who had made them. Mr. R. Taylor. jun., referred to the article which subse quently appeared in the Daily News, in which it was said that the abed was bad enough, but that the lodgings were infinitely worse. Now be waked to know what the guar diem, were to do, They were °appalled to provide these lodgings, and as fourpenee per night was paid for them on account of each casual, a license for increased accommoda tion had been applied for. The vestry then adjourned, no official statement having been made by the guardians. MIDDLESEX Hoarrrat.—A quarterly court of the governors of this hospital was held yesterday. The report stated that the number of patients lusted daring the quarter bad been u follows : In-patiesta, 2,181; out patients, 22,998. The reeripts ware 7,913 L 6s. 3d.; while the expenditure bad bent 3,9 M. fia. A letter was raid from as anonymous &nor, bequeathing the sum of 90,0001. to the funds of the hospital.. The chairman inegratulattel the governor for baring received sock a menlicent arm. He remarked that clergymen sent in patients tuispuingly, and he hoped they would contribute more liberally to the funds of the charity. ifluoic. MR. HENRY LESLIE'S CHOIR. Mr. Leslie's' adwirable choral concerts, having now been can id on for ten years, have taken firm root moss the principal entertainments of the London musical season, land their commencement is always looked for with expectations which aro never disappointed. The eleventh gessoes, which began last night, promises to be se interesting and successful as any of those of previous years. The concert of last night, as heretofore, was made up of part-songs, glees, and madrigals, by ancient and modern composers, intermixed with a few airs for solo voices, and shoat pianoforte pieces. The music is chiefly secular, unless in Leot, when there isgenerallyst least one performance of sacred music. The choir mustered last evening in its usual strength, and betrayed no falling-off in the quality of the individual voices, or in the care and ability with which they have been trained by the conductor. The solo singers announced in the programme were Mr. Sims Reeves and Miss Ada Jackson. Mr. Reeves was prevented by indisposition from appearing. Mr. Leslie read a letter just received from him, in which he ex pressed his regret so strongly end earnestly for being com pelled to disappoiet the publio that the audience were com pletely satisfied, and not a murmur of discontent w.ss heard : conduct very unlike the inconsiderate and unreasonable ill-humour too often exhibited on such occasion. Those who know Mr. Reeves know well that no public performer is more anxious to fulfil his dotes, or more grieved when his delicate organisa tion disables him from doing so. His place on this occasion wan supplied by Mr. Wilbye Cooper and Mr. Leigh Wil son (the new tenor, who has lately msde so successful debut at the concerts of the National Choral Society), whose services Mr. Leslie was fortunately able to obtain. St. James's-hall was crowded to the doors, and moat of the performances were warmly applauded. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. FEB. 1. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) V. MALLINIIION. For the defence, the respondent himself was examined, and he denied that he was responsible for the separation. He stated that, although the petitioner might not have received a letter from him till the one that had been pro duced, he had in fact written many other. ' in which be had offered to live with her at any place she pleased, except Huddenfield. He also stated that he bid previously urged her to quit that town, but that she had refused to leave her relations. The respondent admitted that he bad latterly lived with another woman ; bat he alleged that that con nexion would not have been formed if his wife bad pesmit- Led him to return to her. _ . _ T. learned Judge, after reviewing the evidence, pro nounced a decree of jaclioal separation as craved by the petitioner. neural. Neither the agents tor t oompany Vey lexe rented would refeod the mcney. Mr. S3•lfe mid that was very cool, oettrioly. The 15f. bad not been sent to New Yolk, and the contract tickets for the conveyance of the three persona from London to Liverpool had not been need. lie was of opinion it was most discreditable and mesa to retain the soldier's mosey under the circumstances. He was sorry Vioey and Co. wera not in the Mansion-honee district. The Lord Mayor had &anode of disposing of cases of this kind and a power be (Mr. Self.) oould not exercise. He could only recom mend Thompson to wait on Captain Leen, R.N., the government emigration agent, who would look into the matter. THE CATTLE PLAGUE. Census Divisions.

The thanks of the institution, inscribed on vellum, were presented to Mr. R. F. Aldrich, chief officer of the coast guard at Margate, in acknowledgment of his valuable err vices in putting off in the lifeboat of the society. it is gratifying to know that during the recent fearful gales not • single life has been lost from the lifeboats belonging to the institution whenever they were called out to regime shipwrecked sailers. The silver medal of the institution was voted to Evan Hughes, and 121. to himself and lie boat's crew of 5 men for saving in a fishing-boat the crew of 24 men of the ship Palinuraa of Liverpool, which was wrecked on the Anglesey coast.

FATAL ACCIDENT TO A LADY THROUGH ALIGHTING FROM A TRAIN WHILE rat MCYTlON.—Yesterday Mr. Hum phreys, Middlesex coroner, held an inquire at the London Hospital, relative to the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Lewis, aged 39 years, who lost her life by getting out of a moving trails on the Great Eastern Railway. Mr. A. Lewis, 1, Albert Villas, Woodford, ao accountant, said that the de ceased was his wife, and last Wednesday she bad me:t rios to come up to town, and it was on her return by the Great Eastern Railway that the accident took place. Mr. Alfred Day, City-road, an auctioneer, said that on Wednesday evening he left the Shoreditch station by the 7.10 train. He sat next the door in a second-class com pertinent, and the deceased lady eat opposite to him. On arriving at the Stratford station witness opened the car riage -door. Deceased got up to get nut, but witness put his arm up and prevented her, telling her to wait until the train stopped. She sat down again, but then got up and stood on the step for a minute. She stepped on to the platform, retaining her hold of the handle of the door. She fell of the platform, and then rolled off under the train. Two carriages passed over her. It was she who was to blame for the accident. Mr. Lewis said that oa her death bed she blamed the gentleman that opened the carriage door long before the train stopped. Mr. Day said—l tried to prevent her getting out. Mr. Lewis said—You opened the door so long before the train stepped that she had time to rise, sit down, rise agile, and stand a minute on the step before she was thrown under the train. She told are that you said. "These, now, you had better get out," and urged her to do so. Mr. Day said that be had dose the exact contrary. Mr. Lewis—l do not blame you for this, but I hope it will he a caution to you not to open the door of • railway carriage in future white • train is in oldies. Mr. Day—l hope it will be a caution to all ladies not to get out of • train while it is in motion. Mr. Lindo,.k and Mr. Dosceeter corroborated Mr. Day's evidence, and said that three or four persons cried out to the unfortunate deceased, "Steady, stop ; wait till the train stops." Mr. J. Elliott, house surgeon, said the de ceased was brought to the hospital with her left leg nearly cutoff, and with other severe injuries. Amputation was performed, and everythieg possible was done for her, but she *spired from her injuries on Saturday. The coroner said that the inadvertence of Mr. Day in opening the car riage door had no doubt induced the deceased to step out before the train stopped. The unhappy result in this case showed the danger of the practice, and served as a warning to railway p ra, especially to ladies, as to the fearful risk incurred by ightiag from trains while in motion. The jor7 returned • verdict ` That the deceased died from in juries received accidentally through leaving a railway train while the said train was in motion." - --- RAILWAY AND OTHER BILLS IN PARLIAMENT.— The following is the business transacted yesterday, at Westminster, before Messrs.

MANSION•HOUSE Jolts Smith, a miserable-looking object, who stated be was a cripple, that his collar bone was broken, and one of his shoulders dislocated, was charged by Kellaway, superin tendent of the homeless poor , at the East London Union Home, with assaulting him in the execution of his duty. The statement of Kallaway was that on the previous night the prisoner, with his wife and two children, applied to be admitted, and the wife and children were taken to the female department, while the prisoner was admitted into that set apart for males. According to the regulations the prisoner was taken into the bath-mom, and told that he must take a bath. The prisoner refused, stating that the water was cold, and still refused, though informed be could have as much hot water as he liked. The prisoner was about to leave the bath-room when the witness stopped him. The prisoner became very violent, and struck witness a violent blow on the chest, which knocked him down. A struggle then ensued between thern,in the course of which the prisoner fell, his head coming in contact with I the box of the lock of the door, causing the wound which now appeared on his head. He insisted on leaving the house with his wife and children, who were then comfort ably in bed ; and his violence continuing, a constable was sent for, and he was given late custody. The prisoner denied that he had used any violence, but on the contrary bed been maltreated by the complainant,' , who was a powerful man, for whom he (prisoner), being a cripple with a broken collar bone and a dislocated &hold der, could be no match. It was true he bad refused the , bath, because the water was cold, and he utterly denied that he was informed he could have hot water. He appealed to the police-constable who took him in charge whether his conduct had not been quiet and peaceable—a fact which the constable corroborated. The Lord Mayor said that he could not suppose that a decrepit man like the prisoner could compete with so powerful a man as the complainant. Nothiog could ustify the forcing the prisoner in his condition into a col d bath. There could be no doubt that the complainant had a great deal of difficulty to contend with in the execution of his duties, but still those duties must be discharged with feelieg and discretion. The prisoner might have a great many faults, but still a cripple like him was not powerful enough to knock down such a man as the complainant, who ought to execute his office with firmness, but at the same time with kindness. The prisoner must be discharged. Donations.—The following sums have been received as contributions to the poor-box :—" M. J.," 10a.; and from Robert Chester, 54 SOUTHWARK. Yesterday afternoon Dr. Parker, the medical of of Bermondsey Vestry, accompanied by Mr. Rushton, the sanitary inspector, attended before Mr. Wool:lob to apply for summooses against a tradesman carrying on business in Bermondsey, for having on his premises • large quantity of salted bullocks liver in a putrid state, intended for human' , consumption,—that is, for the manufacture of Leioetershire pure ketchup. Dr. Parker said that lo consequence of information be received be went to a kid in Upper Grsege•road, where he found a large shed in the occupation of Mr. Hope. It was used as a manufactory of ketchup and jams. On enterieg the place he found a large cask containing about two cwt of bullocks' liver in very thick brine. Mr. Woolrych—What did you consider that was in. tended for? Witness—For the manufacture of ketehur. We ex amined it, and found some of it is a putrid state, but it was so stroogly impregnated with brine that you could hardly detect it. lam sure that it was to be used in the manufacture of ketchup. The foreman told mese, and I saw argue in the course of manufacture. Mr. Woolrych—l never heard of such a thing before. I always thought that ketchup was made from mushrooms and waleuta. Wu any porbon of it fit for human coo sum lion? Witness—l don't think it was, as it was so filthy. Some of the outside pieces might have been trimmed off sod eaten, but that would be entirely a matter of taste, whether one liked it or not. I should not like to eat any of it, and I cnnaider it unfit for the food of man. Mr. Woolrych—Where is this ketchup sold ? I should like to know. Witners—l cannot tell ; but I received a large placard, 'on which was printed " Hope and Co.. manufacturers of genuine Leicestershire ketchup and jams, Upper Grange road. Bermondsey.'" I don't know where they are sold. but I raw large quantities in bottles and casks ready for consumption. Mr. Giles Rushton, the inspector of %miseries' of BetH mondsey, said that be accompanied Dr. Parker to a field in Fort er's& Upper Grange-road, Bermondsey, and ie the abet toned the tub of salted bullocks' liver, which seemed to him to be in a state of decomposition. Mr. Hope the proprietor, came into the manufactory while be was insPect log it. and told him be was going to use it in the manufacture of ketchup. Witness saw some also under preparation and in the course of manufacture. Mr. Woolrych asked if he told him what other ingre lents were used in his manufacture of ketchup Witness replied that be showed him some burnt malt under preparation, which he said was used to colour the ketchup. Witness added that be had some of the salted liver outside the court if hie worship would like to inspect it. Mr. Woolrych left the court for that purpose, and on his return said that he could not grant a summons under the circumstances. The act of parliament set forth that the party must be before him on a specific charge before he could deal with such a case. Dr. Parker said that he should mention the circumstances to the vestry, and ultimate proceedings would, no doubt, be taken. THAMES. Corporal William Thornpa - W. of the 89th Regiment, came before Mr. Self, yesterday, to complain that he had been deprived of 271. by an emigration agent and touter under very strange cirmunstances. The soldier stated that his regiment was at Shorneliff, and that he heed been in the army eight years. A fortnight ago he drew 271. out of the regimental savings bank, and ob tained a month's furlough. Chance to lc him to Tower-hill, where he met with • man who wore a kind of livery. with " gold buttons," and who took him to Heath's Express Coffee' and Chop House, 17, Weston-place, corner of Weston-' street, rutg's-c ross. He was made drunk,and while io estate of unconsciousness wan conveyed by the touter to gold buttons to Viney and Co's emigration oboes on Tower-hill, and all his money was taken from him and be was shipped for New York. A woman named Smith and her daughter were planted upon him, and their restage' to New York were paid out of his money. When he came to himself and re flected on the matter be determined to rejoin his regiment when his furlough expired and not proceed to America. He waited on Viney and Co. and asked them to return his money, which they refus ed to do. He told the emigration agents be was • soldier, sod should be treated as • deserter if be did not return to his regiment ; but notwith standing these representations and his willingness to make • sacrifice for his indiscretion they would not part with a farthing. Mr. Selfe—Flow much did von pay to Viney and Co. ? Thompson—They have got above 25/. of my money. sir. 'ltis a bard case on me. I did not know what f was about. and the touter took from me all the mosey I had when I was insensibly intoxicated. _ _ Mr. Self, loOked at the soldier's papers and receipts, and ascertained from theoontract tickets and receipts that he had paid 121. 2a. for his own passage in the Helvetia, to sail from Liverpool for New York on the 23rd of January, and for the passage of Caroline Smith and her daughter, in the Scotland, from the same port, and boond to the mune place. Hs paid 41. 2e. to Heath. Thompson.—Yee, that was for my lodging. Mr. Salto inquired whether the soldier wore his regimes tale when he went to Viney'e office. Thompson said the tooter who took him to Vine?s office knew he was a eo'dier on furlough, sod that he wore his regimental trousers only at Viney's office. Mr. Selfe—This Is a most extraordinary affair. If it could be proved that any of the parties knew that Thorny. son was a soldier on furion?h, and instigated him to go to Americo, they would bring themselves within the proyi goes of the Mutiny Aot, and be liable to severe punish ment. Caroline Smith was then called, end a bold little worms, whose appearance and wanner at ones indicated that she belonged to the gay clam, entered the witnes-box. She said she was a widow, 28 yetis old, sad had a daughter aged eight. She did not pick up the soldier ; be picked her up. They met for the first time at the eerier of the Mino ries.

She said to Viney, " Don't lA, the money for me ; I will not p." Mr. Self, did not know bow far the criminal law would reach the parties. The soldier bad paid 151.. which was to be repaid to him on reaching New York-121. 2s. for the, of himself, Caroline Smith, and Swab Smith to sage York, and 41. 21. to Heath. the oofree-ltouse keeper. He thought that, under the puler circumstances of the cue, the whale of the 151. and • potion of the pas-1 sage money ought to be Wooded to the soldier.

A. altercation took place between the captain sod the pilot, and during the struggle a chain gave way striking the leg of the former and breaking it. Shortly afterwards some of the crew complained of the water, wbioh they said was bad, and of the conduct of the captain, who it was alleged threatened to shoot them.
