While the returns of the expects, imports, and rev furnish food indications of the 'madames, consumption, sad comuirree of greet classes in the country—the marriages, births, and deaths supply a rarer teat of the coadidee of the whole population. It is gratifying to Gad that the general results of both classes of returns are favour able. The marriage', which in 1847 were so mach de and leagued almost imperceptibly in 1848, rose to t e 41, e 5 . 9 d 9 in the year 1819 ; and in the autumn quasi:were 43,632; which is a higher number than has ever berate been sekbrated, exeeptieg in the autumn quarter of 1845. The deaths have also declined ; they were 05,607. The country, which, after the failure of the potato mop fa 1846, was severed with funerals—in the train of a multitude of dis eases and of two greet epidemic', the :'atal Whim's of 1847 8, and the more deadly cholera of 1849—is now la health apsin. The deaths in the first quarter of 1860 were lees by 21,065 sad 21,414 than the deaths in the correspond log quarters of 1847 and 1848. Fewer children hays been left Whorl's', fewer parents have been bereaved of their sitildren. Blokes's lid safferisg—though, perhaps, notipeo duly ia the late redo as the mortality—hays diminished. The skilled and active industry of the kingdom has been Ines iatarrupted by the illness of workmen and the in capacity of masons; the pririshe" hays had fewer poor to relieve ; the friendly socieues fewer rick members to sup port illailrantil societies lees to pay on policies • everything dependent on the duration of homan life has b:aes relieved ef pressure ; the minds of the ricple hays not been irritated by , hacger, fever, and discontent. The improvement in the state of the public health may be estsibed to various causes. The NS= was natural. Janu ary and Muth were cold, as they usually are in England; February warm; the three months were dry and bracing. The great epidemics subsided in 1849. Their form was perhaps expended. It is usual to say that they carry away the weak; but to this it should be added, that their attacks leave much weakness behind them. Then although, as hitherto has always been the cue, much more has been said than done in the way of sanitary improvement, un doubtedly many houses, streets, and cities have been purified. noes flagrant salaam have been suppressed, and have not bad time to reescumulate. _ . Food too has been abundant. The high prices of provi elms in 1847, when wheat was on an average 70s. a quarter Is Upland, and potatoes still dearer, induced agricultural ly% everywhere to extend the breadth of land under culture is 1848, which, as the crops were scanty, did not then pro ds% an amount of subsistence sufficient for the population. The agricultural returns, which by the command of the Lerd•Lieutesant have been so ably digested by Captain Lar cos, show how much this culture was extended in Ireland; 872,038 acres of land were under wheat and potatoes in 1847, and 1,308,646 acres were under the same cultivation in 1848; while the produce, which wee 2,385,308 tons in 1847, was 3,269.689 toss in 1848, without supplying the ordinary manta of the No attempt bees made to procure returns of the breadth of land or the produce is England; and the Irish returns of 1849 nave not yet been made yip; but there can be little duabt that all over Europe the breadth of land under potatoes, wheat, and the other cereals, in that year, was sufficient to yield, on average crops, enough food to supply the markets. The crops were generally above the average ; the potato did not fad ; and the supply of whist wee consequently superabundant, so that prices fell lower than they have been since 1835. The general advantages of Osmium are unequivocal ; but whether the part of the population which is engaged in producing food for sale, pro ewe as much lame, for the good trope of 1849 as they procured for the scanty bad food with which the markets of many counties were Supplied in 1848, or for average cram is uncertain, and must always remain uncertain, until • comprehensive system of agricultural statistics is argots bed. No one On imagine, however, far • moment because wheat wus at 51s. a quarter in 1848, and 445. a quarter fa 1849. that the TALUS of the produce was in that ratio; for if 10 million quarters of wheat at 61s. are worth 264 million pounds, evidently 11,690,000 quarters at 445. will be worth the same sum. This relation most hold if rim, are is the bonne redo of the quantities ia the mar bet; and it the prise varies mows than the quantity, it is nevertheless slam that the value of the produce will very within a narrower limit than the price. The returns from the agricultural districts exhibit an improved state in the health of the great body of the inhaoitants; and there Is nothing is the Lets which ma jaatify us in een = s ; ascribe a part of the improvement to the abundant supply of the neesmaties of Mt The annual rate of mortality the first quartos gibs 11 your 1940 50 was 2.751 per sent. in 117 districts, the chiet towns; and 2.222 per mat I. the distrie=srall towns and country parishes; by 1860 the mortality in the first elate of Mottles full to 2 401 per oast., and in the second elm of disteicts to 2.067 per cent.

A triple murder occurred on Tuesday evening last, in the Wood, at Weeks, near the names of Lord Talbot, Staged. Ina lamely part of the wood belonging to the legatee estate is situated a house, which was until Tuesday teasing inhabited by the parkskeeper of Lord Talbot, whose name was Spencer Yorker, and who it is understood had bees upon terms of friendship with the other keepers until some short then sinew.

Horny, he proceeded into the woods, sad 5011 same cause at resent unexpkined, no other pen= being present, Money was shot by Taker, and was subsequently discovered eta place called the Pavilion. quite dead. From subsequent circumstances it appeared that Tether, after having deprived his fellow keeper of life, proceeded towards his own house, the distance of half a mile, upon entering which be levelled his gun at a servant who was sitting belays the fin, and discharged the contents in her body, the poor creature falling forwards on the floor •eirpse. Parker then pointed his gun at his sister, who had but just returned from Stafford, but she fortunately escaped the contents of the gun by falling forwards at the moment he raised it to his shoulder. At this jtutettun the wife of Yarker rushed down rain, and whether to pones the murderer or punned by him is not at present known; but she ran out of the hoses into the wood, joined by Yorker who, having reloaded hie gun, fired its contents at her. One charge entered her forehead over the left eye, and the other penetrating her body, and instantly depnved her of life. The infuriated murderer then discharged iffse rut ob. liquid, in the direction of his own head, literally carrying away one half of his fees and shattering the head. During this tragical event, his little child was sleeping in a cradle near the spot where the servant was killed. His other two children, who are now left orphans, were fortunately at a neighbouring village. The reports of the gun having created an alarm, some of the servants connected with the farm buildings were soon upon the spot, and discovered the Stelae corps, of the ser vant upon the house floor lying in a peel of blood. Further search diseased the sad sight of the dead bodies of Yorker and his wife, who were discovered a short distance from the house, to which place they were cone, yed and laid side by side upon the floor. Subsequently the body of Money was discovered, also lifeless, and was in like manner coaveyed to the house of the murderer, and placed by the side of the other bodies.

On flamiay morning, the we:shaman employed on the premises observed smoke rising from the door and windows of the store immediately above the engine room, and ran to discover the same, but on attempting an entrance, he was met by a mime of Imam and he at once rang the bell for amiataase. This called ther a number of workmen, sad th ep li e Zes form sad fire Migade, with three engines, were en the spot. By this ti me, however, the flames had conemnsieated from the store to the pattern loft immediately above. Thies patterns being mainly of wood, sad the large apartment packed fall of them, no moth fit fuel could possibly have been meet with. The flames tea along the large apartmeat, which is about 100 feet long, nearly as quickly as if It had been filled with gunpowder, and, of course, all attempts to save that home became superfluous.

While this, again, was going on, the fire further communicated with a thud tenement, in the upper fiats of which were situated the pattern-making shops, also filled with highly combustible materials; and here, too, the work of destruction was quickly completed, the fife descending upon and destroying the brass-shop, when a large quantity of valuable material was stored, and to tee ground floor, where the cylinder boring machines were placed. Means were adopted, by tearing down a paling and re moving combustible property, to prevent the progress of the flames westward upon the houses in the Sinners, which, for a time, seemed in much danger from the violence of the east wind then blowing, and the Inmates removed mast of their effects.

B•aos Aummag AND • MIDDLAII•X COMMA JUST. _ Liwts v. KNOX.--AITORXIT LND CLIZNT. This was an action to recover the sum of 921., the balance of an account for work and labour done by the plaintiff as an attorney. The defendant pleaded that he did not pro mise. Mr. Humfrey end Mr. Chambers were for the plain tiff, and Mr. M. Chambers and Mr. Simon for the defendant. The plaintiff is an attorney ; the defendant an agent liv ing at Camberwell. A person, named Webb, having be come indebted to the latter, proceedings were taken against him, and his provrty was sold by order of the sheriff. The defendant, imagining that Shannon, the sheriff 'a officer, bad neglected his duty, was advised is bring en action against the sheriffs, and he was introduced to the plaintiffs brother in the lint instance, and next to the plaintiff, who wee di rected to commence proceedings. The venue was laid in Surrey, and as the time approached for the trial, the plaintiff applied for an advance of money for ,the payment of fees to counsel, and the hunt court. The defendant having replied that he was unable to make the advance at that time, the cause was withdrawn. B. Richards, an militant to the plaintiff, spoke to the facts above stated. In crose-exantination the WPM.' stated that he finished briefs in the cue about a week or ten days before the commimion day. The plaintiff Charles Lewis is a brother to Laurence Levy, the sheriff's cfficer. Be has a brother called John Lewis, who introduced de fendant to plaintiff. It was mentioned to defendant that a sum of from 301. to 601. would be requisite at the anise/ about 251. if tried in London. Other witnesses having proved the labour done, two letters between the parties were read. The first from the plaintiff to the defendant, written on the Tuesday before the com mission day (or the following Tuesday) stated that the writer was very much disappointed at having only received 101. on account, as he had been 801. out of pocket, and requesting payment of 501. by the following Saturday, at the time reminding the defendant that he had mid that he should not object to pay 1001. On the Bth of August the defendant re plied that he had no recollection 'pi having made the state ment referred to; that he was not prepared to pay the money required at so abort a notice, and requesting the plaintiff to countermand the notice of trial, unless the plain tiff was inclined to speculate a little and buy the defendant's chance. (Laughter.) This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. Chambers, for the defendant, submitted to the jury that the notice calling on the defendant to furnish a sum of 501. within so short a period of the trial was neither fair nor reasonable ; and that the plaintiff was bound to have taken the cue to Croydon for trial at his own eat. Mr. Baron Alderson left it to the jury to say whether rea sonable time bad been given by the plaintiff to the defendant for payment of the sum required for taking the case into court. The plaintiff, under any circumstances, was entitled to recover for the hoidens done antecedent to the trial. MILITARY. 1. Limited Service Act, 1847. 2. Mutiny Act, 1850. 3. Articks of War, 1850.

Mr. Baja's% Bh,e said—My lord, I am instructed to apply to your lordship for a rule to show muse why a criminal information should not be filed against John George Chapman, the printer and publisher of the Morning Herald newspaper, oa account of certain libels published in that paper on the 25th of April last. I move, my lord, upon the affidavit of the Rev. Anthony Magee, D.D., who states that he is a clergyman and a priest of the Roman catholic church in England, and that he is and has acted as mi sister of a certain Roman catholic chapel in the city of Westminster, which is attended by certain members or the Roman catholic church, and that such chapel is used for religious parposco. In the month of December, 1849, the deponent states he contracted to become the purchaser, from Lord Cottenham and the other trustees of the Law Life Assurance Society, of certain lands situate in the county of Galway, in Ireland, containing 3,000 acres or therabouts, and being • part of certain lands or estates commonly kaowa as the Great Martin Estates in Connemara ; bat that no conveyance thereof or of any part of these lands has as yet been made, nor has he as yet obtained the letal possession of these laugh. In the Morning Herald newspaper of the 25th of April last there appeared a statement written of and concerning him, and of the estate which he, the deponent, had purchased. Such statement is detained in the follow ing paragraph. It was htaded : Ireland.—(}rem our own correepondenti—The Great Martin En tate —lt would appear by the following letter from the Nays Conse4 Minn, that the vast region known as the Martin Estate, in Conne mara, is about to be made the scene of • sweeping ejectment Mica- The letter was then set forth, and was as follows 18411.—1 regret to tell you that the parties in= In the Mimed Martin estate have obtained no lees • umber than 111 egisinint decrees against the unfortunate tenantry alpha lab Wm= lifigtka tt Eeq. sly this means 5,000 or 4,1410 people walks Mown spa world.

Deponent further swears, that he never said he was compelled " he eject the vast majority of his tenantry," nor that 'be meant " to restore all who were deserving," nor had be ever made use of words that could possibly convey sub a messing ; that though he is not as yet in possession of the portico of the estate so purchased by him as aforesaid, he has nevertheless taken steps to tender habitable certain dwellings thereon, and has purchased nets, hooks, and twine for the fisheries, and also various seeds end implements for agricultural and has doss, ether things to im prove the condition of the people, and to incite them to industrious oesupations. He then gore on to say that the on of such a statement is materially calculated to his influence as a clergyman and a priest, and his me= and usefulness amongst the persons in the habit of frequenting his chapel, many of whom are Irish, and very poor ; to hold him up to contempt II an oppressor of the poor, and also to expose him to much obloquy and injury to hh oharaater as a landlord ; that he wrote to the office of the Morning Herald on the 28th of April, insisting upon an explanation, but that no attention was paid to his letter. Deponent, in addition, swears that he had been on • former owed= attacked is the ease newspaper, and obliged to bring en action In consequence; that the proprietor then submitted and paid the costa that were incurred.

C. Cutter, described as a solicitor, of Oreenwieh, was cornier for the west division of Kent, and proprietor of the West Kent Goardian. This was the certi ficate meeting. There was no opposition. The accounts were published at lensth in our report of the last elimination meeting. The bankrupt owed 8,6581., of which 4,6074 were old debts prior to 1841; snots about 4001. Mr. Nies, for the unpins, said they wished to represent this case to the court as one of gnat misfortune, in the hope that his honour would grant en immediate certificate of the first elus. The origin of the bankrupt's difficulties was this : In 1841 he had made a composition with has creditors. and it was much to be regretted that he had not then passed through the court, so as to rid himself of those liabilities. He had then undertaken to lay aside a considerable part of his future income for the benefit of his creditors ; end had in fact, made payments to the amount of 2,9C01. to the trus tees under the release. Unfortunately some of the creditors refused to come into the arrangement, and had afterwards sued the bankrupt, when it was found that the assignment was not a proper release. He had net kept a regular cash account ; few solicitors did so ; but his expenditure, to the amount of 6,3811., was properly vouched, as were the pay meats he had made in discharge of his old debts. There was ao imputation of fraud cr extravagance; the worst that could be said was, that the bankrupt had acted imprudently in making the arrangement he had done in 1841. The ere diton' ungnete, seeing no resson to doubt the accuracy of the bankrupt's accounts, wished not to stand in the way of an immediate certificat e being granted. His Honour said it was the duty of every person entering into trade to keep his bioks in such a condition that he could at any time satisfy his creditors as to the state of his affairs ; and then, should he have the misfortune to come to this court, he would be able at onee to show what estate had come into his possession, and how be had disposed of it. It made no difference if the party were engaged in some profession or business which would not in itself render him amenable to the law of bankruptcy, because from the instant he became a trader, every atom of his property, however de rived, became the subject of account for his creditors. It could not therefore be accepted as an excuse on the part of a solicitor who had become bankrupt, that, fillowing the practice of solicitors, he had kept his accounts in a very loose and negligent manner. In the present instance, though no regular books were kept, there was this mitiga tion that the greater portion of the accounts were capable of being vouched. But it was not suf ficient for a trader to say that the existence of certain judgmeats against him proved that he must have made °er ten payments; be ought to have in his own possession the means of immediately exposing the state of his affairs, when ever he was not in a condition to pay all he owed. Though this was not a case of eery bad book-keeping, he could not allow an immediate cue ificate, having laid down as a rule in all cues n to allow a regard for parsons, or the particular hardship of individual cases, to induce him to deviate from this course, for though it might occasionally operate hardly on some individuals, the rule was so benefi• nal that the great public benefit must supersede any regard to individual cases. In this case there was no cash book; he had always made the keeping of a cash book a sine qua non for granting an immediate certificate. Mr. Nias said that, in the absence of the cash book, there was the diary, which was almost as good. His Honour said it was not sufficient that a cash•book might be made ; it must be kept by the trader. He had laid down that rule, and intended to adhere to It it, flotibly. In this cue he should suspend the certificate for as abort a period as he ever suspended any, for the reasons already stated, the greater part of the accounts being vouched, and there being no suspicion of any concealment. As to the clam of certificate, he felt more difficulty. Mat as suredly it could not be a first-class certificate, in which he must certify that the bankruptcy had arisen from unavoidable loans and misfortunes. The only mien tau in this case was, that the bankrupt, being long ago in insolvent circumstances, instead of at once meet tag the exigency of the ease, and so obtaining the relief which the law allowed, had st ruggled on ; the effect of which had been, and always mat be, in 99 cases out of 100, aid the past creditors had been paid at the expense of the future creditors. The creditors now upon the balance sheet had, hi fan, paid the old debts; that was a shifting of responsibility which the policy of the bankrupt law certainly did not contemplate. Tuis, in common parlance, would be called a misfortune, bat it was not such unavoidable misfortune as was meant by the set . It would not he held so in the ease of any trader ,• it was least so in the case of one whose professional knowledge and experience mut have rotated out, to him the evil, the risk, and generally, the unavoid able ultimate ruin which resulted from the come he .had adopted. He doubted whether he could sword a certificate of the second elms. But taking the view which he was always inclined to take, and allowing that there had been some thirg of misfortune (probably in respect of the business of newspaper peprieter, which was cue of a good deal of risk, there might have been some unavoidable losses), he thought himself justified in granting a certificate of the second class, at the expiration of three months from the passing of the last examination, with protection. THOMAS DENNY, WHO WAS SENTENCED TO DEATH at the last Kingston assizes, for the murder of his illegitimate child, he. received a free pardon. The chief evidence agaiut him et the trial was Elinbeth Tarrant, the mother of the infant, and who was charged also with assisting is the murder; but the bill against her was ignored by the grand jury. Justice Mauls, who tried him, communicated with the Beeretary of Btate, and three weeks ago obtained a respite of the sentence. Other circumstances hare since come to light in hie favour, which has induced the govern ment to grant him a free pardon. Yesterday morning, at 12 o'clock, Mr. Keens, the governor of the gaol in H ne moager lane, received the pardon from Sir George Grey, aid at once liberated the recently c , ndemsed convict. The unfortun.de wan scented Grefjoyed at the news, and . praised his thanks to the parties who had interceded in his behalf. He also thanked Yr. Hems, the governor, for his humane atteatioa to him while In tho ooadaaaed all, and gas* She respite. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE. DrisY Wrwnuoe.—Sir Peter Laurie stated that be bad reamed communieations on the subject of a system of ewiedlinc against which he felt bound to endeavour to protect the public Ity mesas of the pre... Two Am , rican papers bad been transmitted to him, and his attention Fad been called to adverthements by which it appeared that a splendid fortune might be gained by an outlay of 101. or 51. In the Mon , real Pilo! the promise of wealth presented Ralf under the head of " Metropolitan Portrait Club," and seemed to hens from the Albany-road, London. The advertisement announced that the direston, who have no names, would draw for • grand series of portraits of all horses entered foe the forthcoming Derby race; that the drawing would be conducted upon those honourable principles which had hitherto given so much satisfaction, and secured to the abree association such extensive patronage. Then followed the list of prizes upon the drawing of the horse portraits, and the information that all letters were to contain e remittance, drafts, hank notes, Re., and to be directed to the =wasting director in Loudon. The other American paper (the Sunday Courier of New York) contained an advertisement referring to a similar es tablishment ia Plymouth. The Lord Mayor approved of the notice taken by Sir Peter Laurie of a plan the great promises in whieh were likely to fascinate credulous parties on the other side of the A - lanlio. - - Sir Peter Laurie said the attempt to reinvigorate the Derby sweep, which were so completely put down in London by the City magistrates, wu nothing lees than could be expected, but the system he came forward to expose was one for which there could not be the slightest pretence in the chance of gaining any thing. No doubt credulity was doing a good deal for the spseulators, for the pee man who traversed the district in which the " managing director" resided stated that he had delivered a good many letters directed from America to the party named in the advertisement. The Lord Mayor said he had received several letters from tradesmen in different parts of the matey i closing printed circulars directed to them from the Albany-road, London. These circulars stated that the writers had always In hand immense amounts at the service of their correspondent*, and that they were ready to turn good bills into ready money immediately after transmission, as well u to get the best prices for parcels of goods. Men of experience would, of coarse, detect at once the swindle in the precious COITIVsi• tion he alluded te, but there was no disguising the fact that in many instances goods and hills had been obtained through their instrumen , ality, and not only great distress but ruin had been the consequence. One of the circulars alluded to by the Lord Mayor was as follows. It was addressed to a tradesman at Ludlow, who declared that he had carried on business for 60 years in that place, and n bad borrowed or attempted to borrow of any person during that time ffir,—We beg leave to inform you that your letter has been handed to us in eoefidence by the gentleman you wrote to a short time ago, whohad a considerable sum of money to lewd, but who has for the present disposed of the whole in Exchequer Bills, Bank Stock, and India Bonds : from the very respoetable manner in which your name was hinted to no by him we should have na objection to remit you the amount yoa request in bills of eachange if they will answer your purpose. If you decide upon this method, in making a remittance for our commission at any time please to send only half Bank of England notes or tawdry owes payable In London In the first instance, and the other halves when you remise the bills of exchange, as also a copy of the undertaking, when you will to remitted such bills as will not fall of meeting your approval. - - - - Big lordship expensed an earnest hone that Bit. Peter Laurie's and his own object in makioß those matters public would hat* the desired effect throughout the country. THAMES. ALLEGED EXTENEIV; --------------- Patrick Smith, de scribed as • mu.ici at, and Sarah his wile, two respectable. looking young'persons, were brought up on remand, charged with stealing a box containing 991. in gold, and , jewel case, whose contents were valued at from 9001 to 1,0001., the property of Catherine Pereira, a native of Ceylon. The evidence given at the first examination, and which has been published in the Daily News, was recapitulated, and the only evidence of importance taken yesterday sees that of Whittleton, the summoning officer, who proceeded to Cholera with the search warrant, and found a gold ear ring in a box which was unlocked en the kitchen dresser. This was identified by the ayha as having been made for her by her brother, and had been placed by him, together with its fellow, in the tin case containing the jewellery just before it was soldered up. Mr Crew, who 'mired for the defence contended that if the ear-ring had been unlawfully obtained, it would not be let lie about so carelessly. The fact was, the ayha had given it to Mr. Smith to make a ring. This the prosecutrix solemnly denied,and insisted it formed part of the contents of the case. It war proved that the pri li miners had not packed up their things preparatory to going to Ireland. For the defence it was shown that such a box as the one containing the money and the jewel care could not pass the baggage warehouse without notice and the pay meut of 10 per cent. Mr. Lennox. a custom-house agent, said it was not usual to search persons who had not parcels or bundles. Mr. Rae—Just so. These parties had passed their own luggage, and it was very easy t r break open the box which they induced this poor woman to deposit in their room, and then enema the money and jewellery about their persons. Mr. Yardley.—The case is decidedly a very suspicious one, and though it requires further inquiry, there is not suf• cicat evidence to send them for trial. I will admit them to bail, if they eau procure two 'mired s of 1001. each. Searles, 24d A, who took the prisoners into custody, here stepped forward and said, that from certain information which he had received, he thought he should be able to carry the case consilerably further, and trace more of the property, on a future ocessins. The prisoners had been put on their guard by the visit of Mrs. Parry and others, tao or three days before the case had been put into his hands. When be took the prisoners into custody, Smi•h said, " It is a bad j"b," and his wife exclaimed, " I wish we had thrown the black overboard." Mr. Yardley then remanded the prisoners until Saturday, revoking his intention of admitting them to bail.
