THERMOMETERS IN SCHOOL -ROOMS.— A therm meter should be kept in every school room, and hung on the coolest side of it. The proper temperature should be determined by unchangeable laws, not by the variable feelings or caprice of any iniliritlu il. Without a thermometer—if the teacher be habituated to live in the open air ; if he be health, vigorous and youn ; if he walk a mile, or several miles to school ; and espe cially if h.- keep upon his fe't during the school hours, the scholars wilt be drilled and scolded into a resip.na non to groat suffering from cold. If, on the other hand, the toacher lead a sedentary life, if his heath be feeble, or if he step into the school-room from a neigh bouring door, he will perhaps unconsciously create a little summer about himself, and subject the children to a perilous transition in temperature whenever they leave his tropical regions. In this way a child's lungs may get a wound in early life which neither Cuba re r the South of France can afterwards heal.—Americun Re po, t on the Subject of School houses. ALLEGED CRUELTY TO AN OLD MAN IN THU HAVERHILL UNION Heusi.—The town and neighbour hood-of Haverhill have been thrown into a state of the utmost ex:iten - ent in cons, qttence of rumours that an old man n trued John Webl., 78 years of age, a pauper, had died in consequoice of cruel and brutal treatment received by Lim at the hands of the officers of the Haver hill Union House. The old man, it is stated, was childish an bed-x.l(ller, an 1, of course, troublesome, his infirmi ties calling for assistant!, which occupied some time, and demanded some humanity to render. It is represented that the son of the deceased g , dug to see his father, who was confined to his bed in the Infirmary of the Union House, found him senseless, and discovered some blood trinkling down one side of his face, a blow on one of hrs knees, and his ancle very much bruised as though he had been severely beaten. Besides the blow on the bead there was also an injury on his right eye, which was plastered up with three plasters, and he was in a state of the utmost filthiness. On Monday last an in quest was commenced at the Greyhound Inn, Haver hill, before Harry Waymenn, Esq., on the body of the deceased, whereat the two sons were examined, but the inquiry . being adjourned, we abstain from giving parti culars, in justice to all p trties. The excitement on the spot is most intense, and the decision of the jury is looked forward to with the utmost anxiety.—Bury Herald. MORTALITY OF THE METROFOLIS.—The total number of deaths registered in the metropolis for the week ending Saturday, October 3, was 935 ; of this number 879 were deaths from other causes than violence, showing an increase in the number of deaths from dis ease of 87, as compared with the week preceeding. The number of deaths from diarrhma were 43 ; from dysen tery, 8 ; and from cholera, 3. The number of deaths from diseases of the lungs and organs of respiration amounted to 222, of which 127 were from cousumption. The deaths from typhus were 38. There were 1,359 births during the week. THE GAME LAWS.—A HARD CASE.—A few days ago Henry Pearce was brought before the magistrates at Chichester, and charged with being concerned in an act of poaching five years ago. Pearce was fined 21. 12s. 6d.; and in default to two months hard labour. Be paid the fine; but this did not seem to suffice. The gamekeepers and th e i r mas t e rs were determined to rid themselves of their neighbour ; so a trumpery tale was raked up, an information was sworn and a warrant issued, and Pearce was taken on the sly, hurried before their worships and convicted out of hand of being found in the road on a dark night in winter, five years ago, for an unlawful purpose, and sent to hard labour for one month. He declared he was innocent of the alleged offence, and that the charge had sprung from spite and malice. - During the five years Pearce has been absent be had served her Majesty at sea four years and up wards, and this treatment is the reward an ungrateful country bad iipstore for him.—Brighton Guardian.

ENORMOUS QUANTITY OF SHIPPING AT ODESSA Letters from Odessa of the 18th S e p tem b er , received* in Liverpool, state that a fleet of no less than 150 mer chant vessels arrived at that port the day before, thus effectually putting an end to the scarcity of shipping which bad so long prevailed. These vessels were chiefly Greek and Italian, only six of them being British. From 350,000 to 40,000 quarters of wheat had been bought for shipment on boardithese vessels, chiefly for Italy and the south of France, and from 110,060 to 150,000 qrs. still remained on sale. The arrivals of new wheat had been small, bnt were expected to be liberal during the next two months. The price of new wheat, of good quality, was 345, to 345. Bd. per quarter, and the freight to England was 12s. 3d. a quarter. The stock of Indian corn was very small. The Augsburg Gazette farnishes us with the following details of the affair of the seizure at Cologne of a casket, by two Prussian advocates, beiieving it to contain letters and documents, but which, on being opened, was fourd to he filled with bank notes only,l which were restored immediately to their owner. The names of the par ties concerned in these transactions are the Count de Hatzenfeld, one of the richest persons in Germaey, being possessed of estates bringing him in a revenue equal to 570,000 f. a year; his Countess, who is the daughtee of a Sovereign of one of the petty states of Ger many; Mme. de Mezendorff, the mistress of the Count; and Dr. Mendelssohn and M. Appenheim, the lawyers The Count and Countess have three children, two suns and a daughter, but in consequence of the Count's inter course with Mine. de Mezendorff, the Countess sepa rated from her husband, contenting herself with an allowance from him, extremely small in proportion to his income, which was partly derived from the fortune she brought him. About the end of August last ,the Countess was informed that there had been registered at Dusseldorf a deed, whereby the Count had charged his estates with a very large annuity, to he paid to Mdme. de Mezendorf during her life, on the pretended consideration that she had advanced to him a !arge sum of money. Under the advice of friends she went to the Count, and represented to him the injustice he had at tempted tocommit towards her arid her children, mad& r ing that thr• whole of their joint property was, according !o their marriage settlement, held by them in common, and that, according to the law of the land, their eldest son would be heir to all the , freehold estates. She therefore urged him, in order to avoid the scandal of a suit at Ire., to annul the grant to Madame de Mezendorff. The Count refured to listen to her remonstranc,s, and she thereupon eensulred the two advocates above name d. They recommended, as the first object, that every en eleav,.ur should be made to obtain possession of the letters he' weep the Count and his mistress as the most / ikely re e aes of proving that the consideration inserted in the annuity' deed was fictitious. Learning that Madame de Mezendorli was at Coblentz, the two advocates hastened there, and, being informed that the papers they were in search of were carried with her in a casket., contrived to get into her apartment in tee night, and to carry off the supposed depository. Ma lame de Mezendorff very soon missed her treasure, and learnt by whom she had been robbed. Losing no time in applying to the police, warrants were issued f r the arrest of M. Appenheim and Dr. Mendelssohn. The former, on learning this, returned to Coblentz and surrendered himself to prison ; but the Doctor is still at liberty. He has, however, ‘ written to the magistrates, pledging his honour that he will return and give himself up in time to take his trial. It is stated that both these advocates, how ever irregular their conduct may be deemed in this in stance, are men of known honour and integrity. A curious incident has attended the pursuit of Dr. Mendels sohn. At Herbersthel, a small Prussian town near the frontier of Belgum, the police officers arrested the c )usin of the Doctor, M. Felix Mendelssohn Bartholely, the celebrated composer, who was returning from Belgium by the railroad, but who is a doctor in music, and not of law. He was taken to prison, and there detained till the next day, when two persons of note came from Co logne to identity him, and he was set at liberty. TO PRESERVE CUT FLOWERS.—The most simple tiles are, not to put too many flowers in a glass, to change the water every morning, and to remove every decayed leaf as soon as it appears, cutting off thy ends of the stems occasionally . , as soon as they show any 53 mptems of decay. A more efficacious way, however, is to put nitrate of soda in the water ; as about as mush as can easily be taken up between the forefinger and the thumb put into the glass every time the water is changed will preserve cut flowers in all their beauty for above a fortnight. Nitrate of potash (that is common saltpetre), in powder, has nearly the same eff,cr, but it is not quite so efficacious.—Mrs. Loudon's Lady's Country Com panion. CAUTION TO RAILWAY SERVANTS.—At the magis trates'-court at Reigate, on Monday last, before Mr. Freshfield, M.P., George Wilson and Charles Clarke, two engine-drivers of the Brighton Railway, were sum moned, at the request of the South-Eastern Railway Company, for endangering the lives of passengers by inattention to the signals at the Reigate station. John Reeves, a switchman of the Dover line, was sworn and examined by Mr. C. Nash, who attended on behalf of the South-Eastern Company. He deposed that, on the 28th of August last, the defendants were driving the two en gines attached to the Brighton train ; that on its arrival at the Reigate station the Brighton signals were both extended for it to stop ; that the Dover up train was due, and was signalled as in sight ; that it approached the Reigate station, having to cross the Brighton down line to get to the up platform ; that at the same moment the defendants started their train—witness observed it coming, alt tough the signal was for it to stop ; that he ; extended b . th his hands, which is always a stop signal but that that was also disregarded ; and seeing the trains would inevitably come into collision, he ran down the signal on to the line, and said to one of the de fendants—" Do you not see the signals? Where arc you going ? " The defendants reversed their engines ; but as that would not prevent a collision, witness ran up to the points, and turned the Brighton train on the Dover down line, and thus avoided the collision. The witness was severely cross examined by Mr. Everset, of Brighton, for the defendants, but his evidence was not shaken as to the position of the signals. John Watts, another switchman, confirmed his evidence. In cross ex • amination he admitted that he heard the plat form bell ring, which was a signal that all was right at the platform, but was no authority to the defendants to go on until the signals were moved to correspond. Other evidence confirmatory of this was adduced, and Mr. Gray, superintendent of the Brighton locomotives, stated that one defendant had resigned his situation, but there being contradictory statements, the other had remained in the service. Mr. Everset addressed the bench in mitigation ; he did not mean to deny the negligence of his clients, although he was instructed that it could be contradicted ; and after an able comment on the case, threw the defendants on the mercy of the Court. Mr. Freshfield consulted with his brother magistrate, and said that topics had been introduced by the defendants which we -e not relevant to the case, and lucidly pointed out the immense importance of attention to the signals, as the only and bast means that the human mind could devise for the public safety ; and it only required proper attention to answer the purpose. He considered the case as clearly made out, and of so much importance as to justify an imprisonment ; but as the defendant Clarke was driver of the second engine, and there were mitiga tory circumstances in his case, he should have sentenced him to two months' imprisonment, and the other to three months, with hard labour, in the county gaol ; but on reference to the particular clause of the statute, it was found that the maximum period was fixed at two months ; and he therefore reduced Clarke's term to one month, and Wilson's to two months' imprisonment. On Tuesday a Parliamentary doom was issued, of twenty-eight pages, containing several papers relative to corporal punishment in India. Mr. [Turn° moved for a copy "of any orders- i sued by the Governer-General or Commander-in-Chief in India respecting corporal punishment of Eur ,, peatls and natives in British India since the 19th of March, 1827." By a circular, dated the 16th of June, 1827, the Commander- in-Chief gave some explanation respectirg a former circular letter, and the general orders restricting the punishment of flog ging in the native army. Regimental or detachment courts-martial were reminded that where they sentenced a native soldier to be flogged, his dismissal would also follow, and that they ought not to award the punish ment of flogging except for very serious offences against discipline, or actions of a disgraceful and infamous nature, unbecoming the!character of a soldier. Another circular was issued in :November, 1832. When it hap pened that a soldier had been found guilty of an offence which rendered it improper that he should remain any longer in the service, although the zeteral conduct of the man had been such that an example was unnecessary, or he mighthave relations in the regiment of excellent charac • ter upon whom some part of the disgrace would fall if he were flogged, the commander-in-chief authorised com manding officers of regiments in all cases where a native soldier had been sentenced to corporal punishment to di: charge him from the a; rvice, if they considered it to be exped:ent, although the punishment was rt mitted altogether. In every case of a discharge ordered in consequence of a court-martial, the circumstances of the soldier having been found guilty and sentenced to corporal punish ment was t o b e di s ti nct ly s p ec ifi e d i n his discharge certificat e , and in the monthly casualty list transmitted to head q u ar t ers . Th e f o ll ow i ng i s very gratifyin g :—" The Commander-in-Chief has ob sea.ved with great satisfaction how seldom it is necessary to resort to such punishment in order to maintain discipline amongst a body of men who are free frem the vice of ine briety ; who are, in general, remarkable for their orderly, quiet, and obedient behaviour, and for whom dismissal from the service, where any individual betrays an opposite character, constitutes of itself a severe, and in most cases, a sufficient punishment." In February, 1E35, the following General Order was issued :—" The Go vernor General of India, in council, is pleased to direct that the practice of punishing soldiers of the native army by the cat o'-nine-tails, or rattan, be discontinued at all the presidencies, and that it shall henceforth be compe tent to any regimental detachment or brigade ccurt martial to sentence a soldier of the native army to dis missal from the service for any offence for which such soldier might now be punished by flogging, provided such sentence of dismissal - shall not be carried into effect unless confirmed by the General, or other officer com manding the division." The document contains an Act passed by the Governor, and the Articles of War for the government of the native officers and soldiers bathe mili tary service of the East India Company. PROGRESS OF STEAM NAVIGATION AND MA • CHINERY IN FRANCE.—According to a statistical return it appears that steam navigation and the employment of steam-engines have made a very rapid progress through out France, particularly in the mining and manufacturing districts, where steam power is now being generally adopted within the last ten years. In 1835 there were only 75 steam • vessels, but from the official report there are at present 238 steamers of various sizes and horse power, not only in the royal navy, but belonging to private parties. From an average calculation that has been made of the work now done by steam;engines, compared with manual and horse labour, it is as follows, showing the gradual increase, viz.:— For 1840 equal to 1,005,942 workmen and 143,706 horses 1841 1,085,595 ••• 145,085 ... 1842 ... 1,128,449 • ... 191,207 ... 1843 ... 1,241,142 177,306 ... 1844 ... 1,321,229 188,847 ... 1845 ..• 1 335 176 I .. 193,540 DASTARDLY CONDUCT.—SOITIe months ago we noticed the circumstance of a servant girl, named Ann Wilson, having had a quantity of vitriol thrown upon her person whilst passing under one of the railway arches in Gorbals. We have been informed that, on the evening of Monday last, the same girl was subjected to a similar annoyance in the neighbourhood of Waterloo-place, whereby the cap upon her head was burned, and her person severely scorched. The scoundrel who committed this disgraceful act effected his escape. It is an extra ordinary fact that this is the third time that the girl Wilson has suffered injury from assaults of a similar description. There is every reason to believe that the same party has been guilty in each case. The Journal des Chemins de Fer ;Ives the follow ing as the numbers of the passengers and the amounts of the receipts of the Paris railroads during the last month : Inspector Gravestock, of the G division of police, ap plied to Mr. Broughton, the sitting magistrate, under the following circumstances: — The Inspector stated that an elderly man, named Tatham, had lately taken up his abode at No. 2, Dodd's place, Old-street, St. Luke's, and, whom it was stated, had previously come into possession of 2,000/.-250/. of which he had either about him, or in the house. There were only three house s in the above place, and, within the last wasfew d to one of them had b een ta k en ; t h e o ld man be seen at the window durin g th e w h o l e o f the day watching the manoeuvres of his new neighbours. This appeared to give great umbrage to the latter, who, it would appear, in consequence, sought every means to annoy the old gentleman, and he applied to him (the in spector) at the station ht,use, and what was thought necessary was done. Last evening, between eight and nine o'clock, the old gentleman again waited upon him at the station, when, after addressing himself thus, " so then you have not thought proper to attend to my com plaint," he pulled out a pistol , and pointing it at him (the inspector), he added , "I know what murder, and s em, means, but remember that you are manslaughter amenable for the consequences." He then hastily re• placed the pistol in his pocket, and hurriedly withdrew. Thinking it was not safe, however, that such a weapon should be in the possession of an individual whose 'thud was evidently nor exactly pellucid, he sent to his house Sergeant Hammond, 5 G, who, on his arrival, perceived lying upon the table two pistols. The sergeant imme diately took possession of the weapons, and notwith standing there was a great objection to this course of procedure on the part of the old gentleman, the sergeant conveyed them to the station-house. From subsequent inquiries, he (the inspector) found that Mr. Tatham had purchased the pistols during the day for 125., as also some percussion caps, but that with all his endeavours he could not procure any powder, although he had been to every shop in the neighbourhood which professes to sell that article. Mr. BROUGHTON (to the inspector)—Do you think, when he pointed the pistol at you, that be intended you any personal injury? Inspector Gravestock—No, your Worship, but merely to show what he intended to o to those whom He is in waiti ng . he perhaps imagined was about to rob him. The old gentl eman was now us h e red into the Court by order of th e M ag i strate, w h en , i n an swer to ques tions put to hi m b y t h e l atter, h e sa id that he had re cently come up from the country, where he had received 1 , 3 001., some of which he certainly kept in the house. He had formerly been in•the colliery line, but of late years had lived upon his income. He-had no doubt that the parties he complained of intended to have robbed him. The Inspector here said that the house in which the old gentleman resided was a most wretched hovel. Mr. BROUGHTON advised the old man, if he were de termined to live in such an abode, not to keep his mo ney at home, but to put it in some bank, and then no person would feel desirous of robbing him. The old gentl then retired. eman, who appeared to acquiesce in this, - - - - - DURHAM, MONDAY EVENING.-At an early hour yes terday morning, a great deal of smoke having been ob served issuing from the mouth of the downcast shaft of the Alexander Pit, at Rainton, near the city of Durham, the property of the Marquis of Londonderry, fears were entertained that during ttie night an explosion had taken place, and on some of the officers of the pit descending the shaft they found that their fears were too fully verified. It appears that shortly after three o'clock on the preceding day the workmen had left the pit, when there was not the least appearance of danger from an explosion. The only person who was left in the shaft on the Saturday night was a pitman named Richard Stott, aged about . ninety years, who had c h arge o f th e furnace used for ventilating the shaft. When the deputy overman descended the shaft the following morning, lie found Stott lying beside the furnace quite dead, his body exhibiting the usual appearance of a person who had been killed by an explosion of fire-damp. On proceeding to wards the stable, it was found that the whole of the horses, seventeen in number, had also fallen victims to the explosion. It is a most providential circumstance that the explosion- took place on the Sunday morning, for had it happened at any other time, the consequences might have been of the most frightful nature; every thing in the mine having life at the time of the explo sion perished. Had the catastrophe occurred on the Saturday morning, it is supposed that upwards of one hundred lives would have been sacrificed. This after noon au inquest was held on the body of Stott, before T. C. Maynard, Esq., coroner for Easington Ward, when John Streaker, the deputy overman, stated . that on Saturday he left the pit at about three o'clock in the afternoon, and at that time there was not the least ap pearance of fire in the shaft; there was, as was the usual custom, two oil lamps left burning, but t h e ir bein g left burning would not have caused the pit to fire. Ile could not assign any reason for the explosion, but it was his opinion that it had not taken place spontaneously. Several other witnesses wero examined, but their evi dence was merely a corroboration of that of Streaker; they all spoke to having left the pit safe and the lamps burning on the Saturday afternoon. After a short consultation the jury returned a verdict of "Accidental death." - ROYAL WILLIAM VICTORLINLING YIED.—No corn has yet been received at the Royal William Victualling • yard, for the purpose of being ground as food for the Irish.

ANGLING EXTRAORDINARY.--ODE day last week, as Mr John Roberts, butcher, of this city, was angling, about two miles up the river Eden, with a single hand rod, fourteen feet long, and No. 5, fly-hooks, his bait was taken by a splendid salmon, which gave some ex cellent play. After an hour's manoeuvring, this first rate angler succeeded in landing his beautiful prize, which, on being weighed, pulled 20i pounds.—Carlisle Patriot. DEATH OF SIR HENRY RYCROFT, BART.—Sir Henry Rycroft, Bart., Knight Harbinger to the Queen, expired on the 3d instant at Brighton, in his 81st year. He was the second son of the Rev. Sir R. Rycroft, first baronet, by the daughter of the Rev. R. Stonehewer, LL.D., rector of Houghton-le-Spring, Durham. In 1816 the deceased was appointed Knight Harbinger to the Queen, receiving at the time the honour of Knighthood. The residence of the deceased was at Bolney, Sussex, in which county the family have resided many years. SHOCKING ACCIDENT WITH A GUN.-011 Tuesday, an accident, of a very distressing character, occurred to Mr. George Evans, a linendraper in Tottenham Court road, whilst returning from a shooting excursion near Rochester. He had been to a place called Ho, near Rochester with a friend, where the had been spending the day shooting, and whilst stepping into a boat for the purpose of returning home, the gun, which was impru dently left loaded and cocked, exploded, discharging the contents into his right arm, which was entirely shattered. He was immediately carried ashore to the nearest sur geon's, where the wounds were temporarily dressed, but such was the nature of the injury, that it was deemed necessary to remove him to Guy's Hospital. The limb is in such a shattered state, that it is feared the arm must be amputated. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE BY A FEMALE AT LONDON BEIDGE.—On Tuesday afternoon, an elderly, respectably dressed individual, who afterwards gave her name and address as Elizabeth Brett, 10, Crown -court, Westmin ster, jumped into the river off the London-bridge Steam boat Pier, whilst apparently waiting the arrival of a steamer. The assistance of boat and waterman was very speedily obtained, but before she couid be reached the steersman of a below-bridge steam-tug, called the Rover, threw out a hook attached to a rope, by means of which he caught hold of her dress, and hauled her on board, ap parently dead, but by the means of the usually applied restoratives she ultimately recovered.
