HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. In the week ending lest Bettnrdity the dentin to emend la the metropolitan distrimewere 1,053 • the weekly avenge of this season, con... Mini foe human Of population, is 1,162. The mortality of last week is, therefore , lea that the estimated amount by 109 deaths, sad is nearly the sense as that of the previous week. Of the 1063 perm no, whose deaths are included in this return, 841 had medical attend• ante, end written statements of the dimness which proved fatal, distineutshing in may sues the primary and secondary firms are entered in the register books; 16 had no medical ettesdanee ; in IS cases the sense of death wee not metaled, and in these it does sot sneer whether or not the pr lents had professional sit. At the ma of the quarter an influx of eases returned by eortmers swells the amber of deaths re (Wired in the week ; but many of tine occurred at earlier dates. Inquests were held on 176 . oaths in the present re turn, eoneiderably mare than the dm proyortinn ; they fall mostly under fractures, wounds, drawable, hanging and suffncation, burns, melds, and risna, making altosether 66, whilst the weekly average is 30 ,• and ander apspleyy, from which there were 44 deaths, whilst the suing. is 25 ; b aides 46 in which the cause of death could sot be ascer tained, or was defectively returned, the average Meech beteg mil 12. Seven children are returned u having died of suffratioa in bed ; 5 deaths sn ascribed to intemperance, of which one was the ease of a gi 1 of 14 years, who died after 38 hours' Wows of congestion of the brain and other organs, frost drinking e d.. ; a child died of want ; a ass of 40 years, in the au trict of St. Andrew Bast, of "iz to cold sad deetttutioe," and a po.k-bausker ofri s rears, on the third day afthr &dated= Into dical attendance died in Somers town of "inflamma tion of the lungs ;" abe is stated to have arrived at the advanced age of 100 years. In the last week 42 children died of measles, which is about the average, 24 of eculatina, an i 24 of hooping•cough (both diseases now uvula the average). Smallpox which was fatal in seven eases, and typhu► in 31, are also let. prevalent than usual. There is a decrease of deaths on the previous week both from bronchitis and pneumonia; eight persons died of in- Hearse. Only nine deaths occurred from dieted . . ; none from cholera. Tables socompacy this return which show the deaths from cholera in each of the 135 sub-districts of London, in etch week since October, 1848. The births daring the week :numbered 1.220. The mean daily reading of the barometer at Greenwich Observatory ranged from 30 440 in. to 30 301 in. on Sunday and Honda, ; on Tuesday it was 30.378 in. The mean of-the week was 29.877 in. The mean temperature of the week wee 33.1 deg., less by 9 deg, than that of the previous week, and less than the average of the same week in states years by 3 deg. The daily mean tear throughout lease ban tie average ; except on Wednesday. On Fri toy, when the mean tem perature was only 24 deg., it was lam than the ge of the same day by 13 dig. IMPARTIALITY OF FREE TRADE. The following letter, wldreesed by Mr. Cobden to • gentleman in Devonshire, will be found interesting: " Westbounie terrace, Dec. 3. 't Dear Sir,-1 send you the paper. you watt. By re ferring to the imports, you will see that I have marked cu• lain articles which are admitted free. Now, there is nothing upon which there is greater ignorance amongst the aericul• tura! classes than this. They are constantly crying out that the manu'acturers are protected with 10 to 20 per cent. duties upon foreign articles, the foe being, that ail oar great staple manufactures are entirely unprotected. For in stance, cotton goods and cotton yarns come In duty free. Printed calicoes may be brought from France or Smits-eland, end sold in Manchester, without paying a farthing Sul. 83 also the coats the farmers wear ; and their waistcoats and trousers may be bought from the foreigner, instead of from my constituent, the woollen manufactures of Yorkshire, without paying one farthing of duty. So also of their shirts or ducks ; they may buy linen manufacturers from the Germans without paying a farthing to protect the flax spinner or weaver of Deed., or Belfast. There is still a small daty on foreign silk g ;ods, irides of luxury, which are eeeeee Ily worn by the higher classes; but the Chancellor of the Exchequer may abolish his duty to• morrow if he likes, and the silk manufacturers will not ob. jeet. The only articles that pay a small duty are those things partly made up by the hand atter they come out of the loom, such as stockings and shawls. '• Bear in mind, too, that Sir Robert Peel removed the duties on foreign manufactures before be abolished the corn law, or rather before be reduced the duty to Is., for there is still a duty of 21 per cent. on foreign corn at present prices. -Last manufactures are free. I supported Sir Robtrt Peel in his measures for abolishing the duli s on manufactured goods. At that time I was largely engaged in business u a cotton printer, and the effect of removing the duty wee, that several French houses established themselves bee the sole of prints in Lindon. It the turners were nide to understood that they are not placed in a IMMO position than the manufacturers, they would, I think, see that they have no fair right to complain. They say that they cannot compete with the foreigner, be eases they are so heavily burdened. The manufacturers have their ful; share of taxation, and they are anxious to re dues the govern= at expenditure. Will the farmers help them ?

REPEAL OF THE NAVIGATION LAWS.—ADMISSION OF GOODS TOR Rory Usa.—lt having been made a sub jeet of irquiry whether goods which may Lave been rec.* ' eerily warehoused for exportation only under the Navigation Act of the Bth and 9th Victoria, imp. 88, for having been imported contrary to the provisions of the law, and therefore! inadmissible into this country except for the purpoge of ex- portatkin, will, if they have not been re-shipped and are still lying in bond, be admissible to entry for home consumption on and after the Ist day of January instant, under the pro whims of the Act 12 and 13 Victoria, chap. A, repealing the existing restrictive laws of navigation with respect to the importation of f reign goods, which came into operation on that date,—the commissioners of customs have caused the several officers of the department in London to be apprised that no goods warehoused under the law above teamed to for exportation only, are to be admitted to entry for home use, and an intimation to that effect has also been given to the collectors and comptrollers and other principal officers of the department throughout the several ports of the United Kingdom for their information and government. - - - ACCIDENTS PROM FIRE-ARMS.—An accident from the incautious placing and playing with fire-arms, by which Mary Ann Dines, a girl about 12 years of age, lost her life, occurred at Hatfield Peverel, on Thursday last. The gun had been left at the corner of a MID, and WM taken up by a youth, the s.usin of the deceased , who amused himself by exploding cane on the nipple, and had done so more than once before it west off. On Friday, an inquest was held on the body before W. Codd, Esq., ard to the surprise of the coroner and jury, en going to view the body thee found a gun in the same corner of the rrnm, which on examination proved to be loaded ; the coroner ordered the charge to be drawn. The following evidence was adduced :—W. Dines, the father of the deceased, said about 3 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, while in the bun near the house, he wee informed of the asident, and on going iato the sitting.room be found the deceased in the chair with her head on the table ; there wee a large wound on the right side of the mouth, her face wee blackened, and she was apparently dead ; when he left the room about ten minutes before a long gun was Wending up a Gorse, near the clock, but he had not the slightest idea it was leaded, as he had not used it for eighteen months ; he left In the room his three little boys, the deceased, and their cousin John Jolts, but they were not meddling with the gun ; he was not aware that them was a cap on the nipple of this gun, but before he left he took the cap off another gun to see if it wee a good one, sad there appearing to be no composition in it be Lid it en the table, ea also another taken from a box, which appeared to be detective ; his little boy Charles silted if he might have the cape, and he tnld him yes, and left the house with the other gun ; he never allowed his ebildrea to touch the gum, and had no idea that the caps would be used upon it. The coroner, after noticing the reprehensible practice of taking fire-arms loaded into a house, told Mr. Dines that both the jury and himself were reluctant to sg4ravate his feelings upon such as occasion, as they must nemeserily be very acute, but he could not but express their surprise at finding another gun standing loaded ta the same pinee—a feet which he presumed had, from his distress of mod, as aped his recollection. Mr. Dines assured the coroner and jury he would • ake a loaded gun in'o the house again. John Jelfs, aged 14, who had been living with Mr. Dines, said as soon as his uncle had gene out of the room, he took the long gun from near the clock, put one of the cape on, and pulled the trigger; the cap snapped, hut he did not smell anything, nor did he see any smoke. His cousin Charles then put the other cap on, and held it about a foot from the floor, and pulled the trigger, and the ;cap snap : d. Witm er immediately took the broken rap off, and threw it upon the floor, and as he was la the act of taking the gun to put it back in the COM , of the room, it went off acd shot the deceased, who wee sit ting on a chair by the window, the charge entering the right side of the month and cheek, aid moklag a hole about the use of lkslsserown ; her head immediately fell upon the table, end she fetched her breath only two or three tie's.

Under this pressure of doubt many vessels han been forced upon the market and sold, in some isolation siowet without user,.. In comparing the enrage prime for the year 1849 with the previous year we find a re denial upos the whole of about 61 per cent , while upon the number of sales there is an inmate of 60 per cent. In our local yards we eh coved a falling off of about 30 per cent. until the het two months, during which time more connects have been made, end more keels laid, than we were prepared to expert. So soon as it wee de cided that the old navigation laws were doomed, an increased disposition to act evinced itself—the native hue of resolu tioa,' ehickhad been 'sloshed o'er with the pale out of thoaght,' mind, and under the assurance that the position of the British shipowner could not be further compromised, oar balers and builders resolved to be up and doing.'

In county Limerick some 'talks attained the height of seven feet. Hemp may be cultivated on the western cast of Ireland, where it would be of great use as affording material for the nets, liner, and cordage of the fishermen, who are generally destitute of these neerssiry articles. It might be grown by themselves, and scutched, apun, and twisted, or netted by their wives and daughters. The quantity of this article imported annually into Great Brit tin and Ireland is about 45,000 tons, valued at 1,600,0001. About one million sterling 01 We carom fr m Russia. In entering on the cultivation et hemp, the first thing to be attended to is the selection of pro per soil ; the bast suited for hemp is a deep vegetable black et tied, with a low situation, and inclined to moisture ; it does well on a rich clayey mould, and old meadow land is well adapted for it. The mode of pre'nerition and the place in the rotation are the same as for flax. The proper season for 'owing is April, so soon as ti ere is no danger of the young plants receiving injury from the frosts. The seed is sown broad cast from two to three bushels to the statute acre, according to the quality of the land. The quality of the seed must be mesh, heavy, and bright in colour ; hemp is one of th, few plants employed in the agriculture of three countries in which the male and female Bowers are in different plants, which circumvent* his some influence In its management, so far as taking it off the ground is con eerned. When the crop is grows entirely for the fibre, it is pulled when in flower, and no distinction made between the male and female plants. But, as is most commonly the ease, when it is cultivated with a view both to fibre and seed, the usual practice is to pull the mate plants, the stalks of which are easily known by their yellooish bus and faded flowers, se soon as the setting Of the weds In the females shows that their presence is no longer necessary. The reason for thus pulling the male so ling before the female is, that the latter requires tour or five weeks to ripen the seeds. The opera tion of pulling the females commences when the seed is ripe, which is known by the brownish hue of the capsules, and the fading of the leaves. The after treatment, such as steep ing, rite., is the same as flax.—Prom a Correspondent NEW BLASTING CARTIUDGL—Mr. (3. Copeland, of Pendennis, Falmouth, has been directed by the Honour able Board of Ordnance to forward to the Tower, London, a considerable number of his blasting cartridges for transmis sion to Bermuda and Gibraltar. It would appear that the master-general and the engineering department of the board duly appreciate the int rits and utility of Mr. Cope land's invention. The Admiralty, also, propose to furnish the Enterprise and Investigator with a supply, the cartridge being intended to be used in breaking up the ioe. By a cartridge of 16.bs. net weight, a block of granite of 14,688 cubic feet, or 1,130 tone, was successfully removed for working purposes on Monday last, at Carnes, quarry, under the inventor's direction. The depth of the hole for the charge was nine feet by five inches in diameter: the ex plo.ion sett dto the depth of eighteen feet. The Moue was broken into four parts ; and, notwithstanding the weight of the charge and its execution, the collar of the hole and the vamping remained perfect. MONEY MARKET. TrZIDATEVIINIST..

The transactions in the foreign house were chiefly speculative, and of no great importance. Peruvicn left off at an advance of over the highest point at taint d yesterday. Mexican left off at 29, and Spanish Actives at 191 for the 16th instant. The business consisted of—Braz;lian Bond. at 89. Buenos Ayres at 47. Eqaador at 31._ Mexican for account at 281, 1, and 29.

Hamburg advice., of December the 28th, have been received. Very little was doing in the produce market, as usually is the case at this moon of the year. The speculative demand for coffee continued, and 1-16 whining advance had been realised, alto gether about 16,000 bags bad exchanged hands du ring the week. The _pries for good ordinary Brazil was quoted 61 to 6 13.16 'chilling. per lb. The holders of sugar were not anxious to press sales, and, therefore, business was limited, but prices were firm. Cotton attracted little notice. Of tobacco (Cuba) about 7,500 'ems had been disposed of for the in terior at current rates. In cassia lignea more busi ness had been does, 4,000 chests on the way from China were disposed of for delivery, pries not known. A small parcel on the spot had been taken at 131 "chilling.. Whalebone was very firm in price. In metals there was no change worthy of notice. In wool a fair amount of business had been going forward, and several parcels of fleece had been realised at 18 to 21, and in the grease at 16j to 16 @chilling' banoo. The grain market was quiet, sever theless more business had been dons in wheat far spring delivery. Funds and railway shares were very firm. Tree exchange ea London had declined to 13.84 for three months; and the price of gold was 438} the mark fine in banes. The house at Hamburg whose failure was an nounced last mail. is Messrs. J. Meinhold end Co. Their misfortunes were almost entirely occasioned by unfortunate extensive speculati ma on the spot in stocks, shares, epelter, and oil, so that parties out of Hamburg are not likely to be in the least affected by the circumataroe . The business of the firm being principally speculations and jobbing for account on the turn of the market, many , et which were still pending, the extent of their habilitioss cannot yet be correctly ascertained. Letters from Bergen of the 13th ult. state that owing to the lateness of the season, and also to the reduced stocks of exportable articles. very little was going forward in the market The stock of train oil was computed at 2,000 casks brown, and 120 casks white, the former was held at 14 Sp., and the latter had realised 18 Sp. The amountof stockfish on hand wee computed at 25,000 waag, chiefly second sort, for which, in the absence of business, prices were merely nominal. The stock of round fish was laid down at 20,000 waag, entirely in the hands of specu lators. Some sales had been made at 1 sp. 30schilling. The stock of grain in store was considerable, especi ally of rye. Salt was quoted 96 to 102 schillings the tonne. Advice. have been received from Odessa to the 17th Dec., being three days later than those pre vio, sly to hand. A change had taken place in the weather, with the wind to the S.W. The ice was earned eirszoind vrember being mild, reading ng of vessels had been resumed with much activity. In wheat there was not much doing, and the price was about the same as last quoted, say equal to 245. to 30s. 61. per qr., f.o.b. In tallow transac tions had taken place for transmission to Oallicia, which would reduce the supplies, and holders had consequently become very Arm, and demanded 1t.117, equal to 361. 19s. per too, under which it could not be obtained. In linseed and wool there was no alte ration to notice. The exchange also remained without variation. Dates from London of the 30th Nov. were to hand. DUBLIN STOCIDL—Dic. 31. S per Cent.

The weakness of tone of the market has been partly coca sioned by the unsteadiness of prices in the English stock market, and partly by the very unfavourable nature of the traffic report for the last month of the North Staffordshire Rellway,which exhibits a decrease of between 4001. and 5001. as compared with the pre vious return; shares in this line are at present flat at 10: to 101 discount.
