A singular charge of violation of duty was brought against Police-Constable Rosekelly, one of the summoning officers of Marlborough-street Police-court, on Friday. The proceedings were instituted by the Commissioners of Police, and the substance of the charge was that Rosekelly had violated his duty in inducing Mr. Hill, a licensed vic tualler, of Oxford-street, to become bail for Mr. Grenvillc- Murray in the • recent charge of perjury. Mr. Hill said that on the 22nd of January he was at the court when the case " The Queen v. Grenville-Murray" was being heard. He came to the court at the close of the day, and heard part of the case. He left the court and saw Police-constable Rosekelly, whom he had known for some time. Rosekelly said to him, "What a strange thing it • is this gentleman," meaning Mr. Murray, "has not got bail; I think his friends must have gone away." Rosekelly also said, " I thought it would be an adjourned summons," and then he asked witness if he would become bail. He asked Rosekelly for what amount ; Rosekelly said two sureties in £250 each. He asked what was the case ; Rosekelly replied "You have heard of the assault by Lord Carrington on Mr. Grenville Murray ? Mr. Murray is brother-in-law of the Duke of Buckingham," and he said he did not know about it; he had never been bail before; Rosekelly went away, but came back to the door, beckoned him into the court, and put him into the witness-bov. He was asked if he was willing to become bail, and his bail was accepted. The magistrate asked if he was known, and Rosekelly said . he was known, and was a respectable and responsible pc:so 1. He made no objection to the amount, £5OO, and was taken into the clerk's office, where he signed the bail-book. Mr. Murray asked him to call on him the next morning ; he said he would not, as it was through Rosekelly he had consented to become bail. He told Rosekelly he did not like the looks of Mr. Murray. He afterwards went with Rosekelly to a public-house, when he found that, instead of its being a case of assault, it was a case of perjury. Rosekelly sub sequently told him that he would get a person to take his chance for £l5 or £2O ; he told him he should be happy if he would, but Rosekelly did not do so. He afterwards went to Mr. Hathaway, Mr. Murray's solicitor. Mr. Montague Williams, who appeared for the defendant, submitted that no offence had been committed, and that there had been no violation or neglect of duty on the part of the officer. Mr. Knox said that ho wished that all officers connected with that court would say in cases of bail that it is no business of theirs. As to the law of the matter he was not satisfied. With respect to the violation of duty, he found that it was one of the duties of a constable to attend the court during certain hours, and that he was liable to a penalty of £lO for any infringement of police duty. He would honestly say that on the question of law he should, on the evidence, have dismissed the summons ; on the question of facts he must consider it an open Question. The summons iVas then dis missed. THE SUN, LONDON, _MONDAY EVENING, OCTI I OBEIZ 4, 18G9. PRICE.... ad STAMPED bd. MUTUAL ASSURANCE without MUTUAL LIABILITY.

The Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob jection not unfrequently urged by persons invited to as sure, that the ordinary mode of Life Assurance is in their opinion defective or uncertain, by reason of the operation of the customary conditions, have resolved to promulgate the present Tables, and to issue Assurances under them which shall be absolutely Unforfeitable, Unconditional, and Unchallengeable. For the reason referred to, many persons hesitate or decline to assure on the ground that, i n; ne event of in ability or unwillingness to continue payment of their pre miums, the Assurance will become forfeited. To this class of the public the system now introduced will espe cially commond itself, being entirely free from all condi tions of forfeiture on account of non-payment of premium, or from any other cause whatever; while at the same time it absolutely guarantees at decease, when even a • de fault is made in payment of the premium, a fixed sum in respect of every premium paid. bearing the same propor tion to the total amount assured as the number of pre miums actually paid may bear to the whole number origi nally contracted to be paid. Besides this important advantage, every policy will ox pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on the discontinuance of the assurance. The assured will thus always have the option of retain ing either an ascertained fixed sum payable at decease, or, in case of need, of withdrawing a certain amount, ac cording to the duration of the Policy, such amounts being set forth on every Policy, and rendering unnecessary any future reference to the Company on these points, as is the case with ordinary assurances. Creditors assuring the lives of debtors will appreciate this feature as one greatly protective of their interests, and it will likewise commend itself to bankers, capitalists, and others who are in the habit of making advances collaterally secured by Life Policies, as they can at any time learn, by mere inspection, the exact value, either immediate or re versionary, of a Policy of this description. Every Policy issued on this plan will be without any conditions as to voyaging, foreign residence, or other usual limitations. By this freedom from restrictions of all kinds the objections before referred to will be entirely removed, and the Policies will become at once positively valuable as actual securities.

NIXON, House Governor and Secretary. In addition to the foregoing statement of advantages, the number of premiums is strictly defined. The longest term provided for is twenty-five years, and the shortest five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, bankers, credi tors, and others holding policies of this class as security, may always know the utmost amount they may be called upon to advance so as to maintain the full benefit of the Assurances—a matter of groat importance where policies q.re held as collateral security. It is only necessary to add that, as a consequence of the policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon ditional, they will also be unchallengeable on any ground whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute Security Policies. The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos sesses an income of £215,000 a year. Its position is un questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of new business of anv office in the Kingdom. SPECIAL AGENTS WANTED. , APPEAL very earnestly for CONTRIBUTIONS.

On Friday most of the medical schools in connection with the great metropolitan hospitals were opened for the winter season, and addresses were delivered by some of the most distinguished professors. Amongst the most gene rally interesting was the address by Dr. Johnson, at King's College. Tracing the progru,s and &vele' ment of medical science, the learned doctor observed that acme of the greatest triumphs of medical discovery have been effected by researches throwing light upon the causes of disease, and consequently uhon the means of prevention and of cure. Thus that terrible disease called sea scurvy was traced to a deficiency of fresh vegeta bles in the diet; the various sources of chronic poisoning by lead have been made known, and ague has been traced to the influence of malarious exhalations from undrained marshes. Within the last few years it has been gradually ascertained that in the great majority of cases of ague and of typhoid or enteric fever water is the vehicle of the poi son. The discovery has brought prominently into notice one of our most glaring sanitary defects. Formerly, in towns especially, cesspools and wells for the supply of drinking water were placed in such close proximity that a nutual interchange of their contents was of frequent occurence. Lately, cesspools and wells have been simul taneously abolished, and now the excreta are poured into those very rivers from which our drinking water is mainly derived. Thus, with a blind perversity, we have acted as if with a determination to inflict upon ourselves all the loathsome abominations ;nvolved in the curse of Rabshakeh. The discovery that water contaminated by sewage is the vehicle by which, mainly, though not entirely, cholera is communicated has rendered it more than ever certain that the discharges from the alimentary canal, which are known to contain the specific poison of the disease, are the result of an effort L to expel the poison from the system. The physiology of the process appears to be this—certain effete and noxious matters, which have been once thrown off from the system, being rendered additionally noxious by the presence of a specific poison, are re-intro duced through the agency of drinking water. Then, after 7eing absorbed and undergoing a rapid process of multipli- Cation, they are again ejected through the natural outlets of the body. The history of medicine affords many illus trations of the mischievous influence of wrong theories upon practice. The cotemporaries of Sydenham believed that the maturation of the pustules of smallpox requires a high tem perature for its completion. This they endeavoured to secure by closed doors and windows and heaps of bed clothes. The patients, therefore, were poisoned by foul air, and the mortality was excessive. Probably no theory of disease has ever led to so great a sacrifice of life as that which, attributing the collapse of cholera to the discharges from the alimentary canal, suggests a treatment whose main object is to arrest those discharges by astrin gents. and especially by opiates. This theory has now few defenders. Careful observation has shewn that the choleraic discharges, so far from being the main cause of collapse, are as essential a condition of recovery from collapse as the eruption in small-pox is essential to recovery from that disease, and the sudden" arrest of the choleraic discharges by opiates - is as fatal a mistake as the repression of the variolous eruption by the cold wet sheet. That the fatal results of the opiate treatment should not have led to the earlier abandonment of the erroneous theory upon which it was based, is an illustration of the doctrine propounded by the historian` Buckle, that an erroneous theory is .never abandoned because it produces injurious results. A theory once be lieved will continue to be believed until advance of know ledge shakes its foundation. Most of those diseases that are curable by any means are curable by the unaided powers of nature, and the chief art of the physician, as of the sur-. geon, consists in regulating and directing those natural forces which will cure a fever or an inflamed lung as surely as they will heal a wound or mend a broken bone. The most competent observers agree in opinion that the specific reme dies are few in number, quinine, mercury, iodide, and bro mide of potassium may be looked upon as specifics, but to' ensure their curative action they must be given full and not in infinitesimal doses. Physicians of the present day are sometimes charged with a want of faith in the power to cure disease. To this charge we plead not guilty. It is true that we have learnt that the use of drugs is more limited than we formerly believed. Yet we have an increased confidence in our power of dealing with disease, both in the way of prevention and cure ; and a firm conviction that we have acquired greater skill in the use of particular remedies. In the treatment of a fever we trust snore to good nursing and judicious feeding than to medicines, yet we give medicines when they are needed. So, in the management of many chronic diseases, we know that the secret of success consists in discovering and avoiding the cause, and not in the blini administration of drugs. At the Middlesex Hospital, Dr. Livring adverted to that interesting question—the admission of women to medical practice. There could be no doubt that women would, ere long, be admitted to medical degrees in England, as they were in many other countries of Europe and in America. Instead of hastily condemning this innovation as a neces, sary evil, he would ask them to bear in mind—what no one would venture to deny—the existence of a very great and daily-increasing number of well-educated women, who could barely earn a subsistence by teaching, needle work, and other like occupations, and of a still larger class who were dependent through life upon the charity of friends and relations. If superfluous energy and wasted talent could be turned to good account, there was some thing gained, and the throwing open any new and legiti mate sphere of employment to educated women would be an undoubted advantage to themselves, and possibly to society at large. At Westminster Hospital, Dr. Walter declined to enter into the question of the advisability of having women as practitioners. lie bad, however, seen some of these lady candidates, and all he could say was, that the gentlemen would find them no contemptible competitors. A COURAGEOUS GENTLEMAN.—The other night the house of Mr. Hemphill, a gentleman residing at Spring hill, county Tipperary, was attacked by a band of marau ders, who, in the most threatening manner, demanded his arms, and en being refused, proceeded to break in the ball door. The cool determination of Mr. Hemphill, who was the only man in the house, however, baulked them. Stationing himself behind the hall-. door, armed with revolver and fowling-piece, he repeatedly threatened to fire upon them. They persevered in their efforts, and when the bolts sheaved spmptoms of yielding, Mr. Hemphill gave them a last caution, and prepared to carry out his threat ; but the ominous click of the locks, as he prepared for action, made their Ccliya,g? ! .
