ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR. CONCLUSION OF THE THIRD DAY'S POLL. The Livery of London are acting manfully, and ap pear determined to keep up their character as the sup porters of the oppressed and ill-used. At three o'clock the polling of the third day closed, and the announce ment of the poll placed Alderman Wood in a much better position than that which he occupied yesterday. Little or no doubt seems now to be entertained of his ultimate success. At half-put three o'clock the following was an nounced by the Secondary to be the state of the poll : For Mr. Alderman Wood _ _ _ Sir G. Carroll 5BO Mr. Alderman Hooper Mr. Alderman Farncomb Mr. Alderman Moon 1 The announcements of the last two names caused great laughter. The call for Mr. Alderman Wood resounded from all parts of the hall, but the worthy Alderman gave way for Mr. ANDERTON, who stated that he was the individual who had called for a poll on behalf of Alderman Hooper ; and in consequence of a report which he had seen in the Times newspaper of that day of the speech of Alderman Wood of the previous day, he wished to explain to the Liverpthe grounds on which he had called for that poll. In the report Mr. Alderman Wood was represented to have stated that he knew nothing of a poll being demanded until after that demand had been made. That statement was perfectly true, because he did nut think it to be at all necessary or called for on his part to inform Mr. Alderman Wood that such was his inten tion. Mr. Alderman Wood had stated that he had no doubt there were good reasons for the course that had been adopted, and what those reasons were it was the duty of the party who had called for the poll to explain. —(Cheers.) Now he stood there to give that explana tion. In adopting the course he had pursued he was animated by no prejudicial feelings towards Mr. Alder man Wood, but, looking upon it to be the right of the Livery of London to test the fitness or unfitness of any person who offered himself to fill the office of their Chief Magistrate by their votes, he had adopted the present course to enable them to do so. Alderman Wood had been twice rejected by the Court of Alder men ; and, on one occasion, when the votes of the Livery were taken, he was the lowest on the poll. He believed that the Court of Aldermen were ready, at the commencement of the present contest, to reject again the claims of Mr. Alderman Wood.—(Cries of " No, no," " Shame, shame," and " There wants reformation in the Corporation of London.") Now, thinking that if Alder man Wood was returned to the Court of Aldermen by the vote of the Livery, that they would not reject him, he had demanded a poll in order to test the opinion of the Livery.—(Cries of " Yon did it for the purpose of putting him to expense.") He denied that he had any such intentions, and as a proof of his sincerity, he would state that he should be willing to subscribe towards defraying those expenses, or even paying the whole.—(Cheers.) What, he would ask, ought to be the character of the man who aspired to fill the office of the chief magistrate of the city of London ? Why, he ought to be as independent in his pocket as in his principles.— (Cheers, and cries of "So is Wood.") He quarrelled with no man for being poor.—(Cries of " You would like to be Lord Mayor, if you had only money enough.") He quarrelled with no man for being limited in his means, hut he did find fault with a man aspiring to the office of Lord Mayor who had demands made upon him from day to day: which he did not meet.—(Great uproar, and cries of " Shame, shame," and " Prove what you have stated.") He believed that Alderman Wood was doing himself injustice in forcing himself upon the Livery in the way he had done.—(Cries of " No, no.") He (Mr. Anderton) held the honourable and responsible office of Deputy-Governor of the Irish Society, and he could state to the Livery, from the knowledge he derived from that situation, that claims had been made by that society on Alderman Wood for the payment of certain fees, which he had never paid ; thereby reflecting discredit on himself, and those who had employed him.—(Great confusion, and cries of "Shame, shame.") Mr. ALDERMAN WOOD then came forward, and was received with the most deafening cheers, which lasted fur some minutes. When order was in some measure re stored, he stated that he was not sorry that he had given precedence to Mr. Anderton, the gentleman who had lust addressed the Livery, because he felt convinced that all that had beet said by that gentleman would prove to the Livery how he had been treated, not only by him but by other:;.—(Cheers, and cries of " Shame.") Everything that malice could invent, every transaction in private life, had been raked up against him.—(Cries of " Shame.") Ile envied not the feelings of those who had adopted such a course.---(Cheers.) He envied not the feelings of the man who occupied his time in such proceedings, but he thought he must envy him the feel ings he entertained when he stated that he looked upon such proceedings with the contempt they deserved— (Great cheering) —and he thought the answer had been given to them by the mass of the Livery which he ad dresseil.—((sheers.) Some allusion had been made by Mr. An:lemon to the Irish Society, with whom he (Mr. Alderman Wood) had an account, which he delivered in January last, and, notwithstanding all the integrity, zeal, and punctuality of Mr. Anderton, that account re mained unsettled until Saturday last—(Great laughter)— and because he (Mr. Alderman Wood) had not gone on and done what Mr. Anderton thought he ought to have done,he came there and complained.—(Cheers.) Charges innumerable had been rake.' up against him, because he had been connected with a club, in which he had done all in his power to bring everything to a proper settlement. Ile thought the course that had been per sued towards him was unca!led for, harsh, and unjust. —(Loud cheers.) If they were to arraign th,, conduct of men who had been engaged in ephemeral sehernes in the same manner that they had dune him, he thought very few in that great City would come nut of the ordeal blameless.—(Great cheering.) Mr. An derton had stated that he (Mr. Alderman Wood) had chsPenged the pro:noters of the preeent contest to come forward and explain the cause of their doing so ; the Livery had heard the explanation that bad been made. —(Cheers.) Mr. Anderton had stated that he was not desiring to put him (Mr. Alderman Wood) to expense, and that he would sooner pay it himself. He was sure that, after Mr. Anderton's explanation of the causes that induced him to demand a poll, the Livery would call upon him to redeem his pledge and pay those ex penses.—(Laughter.) Whatever miglst be the motives of the parties demanding the poll, the result wou'd be to entail great expense, and that expense, according to his own showing, Mr. Anderton was bound to bear— (Cheers)—and no doubt would give a cheque on his banker for the amount.—(Cries of " The cheque will be on the bank of elegance.") But enough of this—it was said that a roan must be not only opulent but independent, before he could fill high offices.—(Cheers.) He thought if a man's finances were to be the measure of his fitness for haling office, the Livery might as well at once give up their rights.—(Great cheering.) IC they were to look at a man's purse, and not his principles, the rights of the Liseey were worth nothing.—(Cheers.) It had been said that he had improperly kept up these contests ; he denied it; he had no alternative but to do t o. As the servant of the ward he represented, he had fearlessly dis charged his public duties, and why, he would ask, we re private transactions to be raked up against him, as a ground for his unfitness to discharge a public duty ? (Cheers.) He had risen from among the Livery ; he had come, like others, from a humble origin—(Cheers)— but it was the glory of this free country that such was the nature of its institutions, that they encouraged in dustry, looked to rising worth, rewarded it, and held out the prospect, even to the most humble, of filling places of the highest honour and the greatest trust.-- (Cheers.) God forbid, he would say, that it should be otherwise.—(Cheers.) lie did not pre. sent himself to the Livery as a private character ; he presented himself to them as he had been for years— he presented himself to them as an Alderman in rota tion for office, and he asked the Livery fearlessly to point out one single blot onbis public conduct.— (Cheers.) It was painful and unpleasant to speak of self, but he bad been compelled to do so.—(l.lear, hear.) He had met the test that had been imposed upon him fairly, and the conclusion of the third day's poll showed the con fidence the Livery had reposed in him.—(Cheers.) In the whole contest no unkind words had been used, except those that had been uttered that day.—(Cheers.) 'He had received the greatest kindness at the hands of his two colleagues—(Cheers)—and he thought that what had taken place that day ought never to have occurred.—(Cheers.) It reflected no honour on those who had brought it forward, and he was sure that it would not damage his cause with the Livery.—(Cheers.) It now only remained for him to thank them for the noble manner in which they had supported his cause—a cause that was their own. He trusted that the Livery would go on in their good work, and success was certain. —(Cheers, and cries of " We will") He felt no doubt that at the conclusion of the poll on the following day he would be in a better position than he was that day. Mr. R. TAYLOR then came forward to address the Livery. He was the decided enemy of the pretended veto of the Court of Aldermen • he thought nothing -could justify it ; but he thought that all those who looked up to high civic dignities should claim them with clean hands. He was connected with a great public trust belonging to the city of London. That institution had been engaged in a long and difficult law suit ; the solicitor employed had had the money to do so, but had -never paid the fees of counsel. Who was that solicitor? Mr. Alderman Wood.—(Cries of " He has paid them, -but have you paid his account.") All this was matter of inguiry.—(Great confusion, and cries of " Go home and print it.") Amid which Mr. Taylor retired. Mr. Alderman WOOD again came forward. He could assure the Livery that he was not afraid of meeting the -present discussion any where, although it had been brought forward for publicity.—(Cheers.) It had been the subject of attack elsewhere, and he had given the same answer to it as he did then.—(Cheers.) That there were some fees:unsettled there could be no doubt, and that that money had remained in his hands till the Irish Society settled his account was the feet. That account was not arranged till last Saturday afternoon ; and, as the Livery knew, his time had been engaged ever since then in this election.—(Hear, hear) Before the .gentlemen connected with the Irish Society brought such charges against him, they should recollect that after fifteen years litigation they have succeeded in every point.—(Cheers.) He thought that, in candour, they ought to have spoken in a very different spirit, with 'respect to him especially, when they knew full well that details could not he gone into at that moment.—(Cheers.) Mr. HoLT had had the honour of representing the in terests of the Livery of London for twelve years in the Court of Common Council, and during that time he had numberless opportunities of testing the sterling worth of . lir. Alderman Wood.—(Cheers.) That gentleman had that day been twitted by disappointed individuals.— (Cheers.) He would unhesitatingly assert that Mr. Al 7derman Wood had faithfully discharged his duties, and there were few men who had done the Livery better Suit and serviee.—(Chears.) As the head of the Com. faiStee the City Pace serrices lad Wm baciali, Table.—(Cheers.) The Learned Recorder had told the Livery over and over again that they were met to exer• cise one of their most invaluable privileges.—(Cheers.) He trusted that they would show that they valued those privileges, and that nothing would induce them to part with them.—(Cheers.) The Hall was then adjourned till this mor..ing at nine o'clock. NEWRY AND ENNISKILLEN RAILWAY. A meeting of shareholders in this company was held yesterday, at the London Tavern, for the purpose of considering the conduct of the directors, and adopting the means necessary to protect their interests. Mr. CONQUEST, who was called to the chair, said that, like themselves, he was an unfortunate shareholder. He had purchased shares, not certainly with a view of re taining, but before obtaining them three months had elapsed, and he could not sell them.—([fear, hear.) He took upon himself to write to Enniskillen, to procure some information with reference to this line, and from the answers he had received it appeared that there was not a single shareholder in Enniskillen, though the line was from Newry to Enniskillen.—(Hear.) He had also received information to the effect that the line would never be made.—(Hear.) He called on Mr.. Spack man to take the steps which would be necessary to pro tect themselves in the matter, and he was glad to be able to state, that that gentleman's efforts had been in part successful. He was very well satisfied with the conduct of the gentlemen at Blackburn.—(llear.) A meeting of the shareholders had also been held at Liverpool, or, the 28th instant. A report of the proceedings was in Mr. Spackman's possession, and would be submitted to the meeting. Mr. SPACEMAN read the report in question, which stated that the meeting was large and respectable, re presenting personally, or by proxy, nearly 6,000 shares. Resolutions approving the relinquishment of the line were passed, and much distrust of the directors was ex pressed, as well as a determination not to pay any more calls till the affairs of the company were better conducted. He then read his own report, which consisted chiefly of a correspondence that had taken place between him and the secretary of the company, and from which it appeared that the directors refused to comply with a requisition of shareholders to call a general meeting to be held in London. It further appeared that they had refused to comply with another requisition, request ing the directors to call an extraordinary meeting of the Ishareholders for the purpose of considering the measures to be adopted in the present state of their affairs, and to suspend further calls. Some discussion ensued, after which it was agreed that a deputation of shareholders should wait on the di rectors to endeavour to make arrangements, which Mr. Spackman stated he believed might now be effected. Thanks were voted to the Chairman, after which the meeting separated. DEPARTURE OF THE FOREIGN MAILS FOR OCTOBER.

FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, SEPT. 28.—The port of Antwerp has pre sented a very animated appearance since the day before yesterday. The first basin is crowded with ships. In less than 24 hours, 26 vessels have arrived, most of them returning from long voyages. The Courier d'Anvers say, " If we are well informed, the financial results of the new sugar law are very satisfactory. The receipts have increased considerably. A few days ago the total amounted to more than three millionv; thus the antici. 'pations of the framers of the law are completely • verified. The Rubens, a fine Belgian vessel, .vas to sail on Friday from Antwerp, bound to Valparaiso, in Chili. Part of her cargo consists of 1,143 barrels of refined sugar. The Minister of the Interior has just sent a new• circular to the governors of the provinces, recom mending them to assure the makers of the exact execu tion of the important measure of the census. He de sires them to take particular care to make it under stood:— 1. That the census of the inhabitants, being founded on the principle of the actual population, all the indivi duals, natives or foreigners, who shall be in the Bel gian territory, shall be counted in the locality where each of them has passed the night of the 14th of Octo ber, so that the number of persons present on a fixed day, in each commune, may be exactly known, with all the distinction indicated in the bulletin. 2. That the persons who, on the day of taking the census, shall be absent from their home, are, neverthe less, to be in scr ib e d i n the b ulletin of the family to which they belong. It is expressly recommended that the absence be mentioned in the c , ilumn of abreviation. 3 and 4, Contain particular directions relative to far mers, and to manufacturers, artizans, and shopkeepers. STUTTGLIRT, SEPT. 23 —The Crown Prince and Princess, who had already been most unexpectedly wel .owed on their arrival at Heillroum, by their Ma jesties, arrived about twelve o'clock this morning at the royal country seat of Rasensteim, where they were re ceived with the most heartfelt joy by their Majesties and several members of the royal family, who are at pre sent staying there. After breakfast they made their public entry into the capital, conducted by the royal family and the Court, amidst the ringing of the church bells and the firing of cannon. The royal bride and bridegroom were met at the Neckar-street, where a triumphal arch was erected by the magistrates and chief civil authorities, and various companies with their ban ners. The Princess then proceeded to the royal Palace, Konigsstrasse, all the streets through which they passed being lined with military, and decorated with branches, flowers, carpets, and banners, and various tasteful de signs and ornaments. The Prince and Princess were attended by an escort of the royal body guard, a nnmber of young men of the class of citizens, and the city guard on horseback, and the civic companies, as far as the court of the royal residence, when the Stuttgard Philhar monic Society awaited their arrival, and executed a con gratulatory ode. On their arrival at Wilhelms Plata, a company of young ladies presented to her Imperial Highness the Crown Princess baskets of grapes and other fruits, the produce of our vineyards and gardens. AN AMERICAN SENTINEL.—A New Orleans letter relates the manner of the death of Captain Pope, which was caused by his neglect to give •the guard the counter sign. The sentinel was a boy of sixteen, who, hailing and receiving no answer, fired and killed him. The sentry is reported as saying, " I challenged somebody twice --gin him fair warnin'—he didn't answer, and I jest plugged him." The men sprang into the bushes, and in a short time dragged into the clearing the dead body. Just then the moon, which had risen behind a heavy bank of clouds, emerged from behind them, and shed a pale light upon the group, disclosing the uni form of a volunteer officer. " Why, what have you done ? This is one of us," said the corporal, and, raising the head of the dead man, be gazed for a moment on his features, and exclaimed, " My God ! boys, its Captain Pope !" " Captain Pope I" echoed the lad, " well, who'd a'thought it ? I'm mighty sorry, but it wasn't my fault. If it had been the Colonel, or General Taylor, 'twould bin jest the same." " They took me into arrest," said the boy, relating the occurrence to my in formant, " tried me by court-martial, and acquitted me. I'd only done my duty ; but they went and discharged me under pretence that I was under age."—American Paper. EARLY CLOSING AT ROCHESTER. —On Saturday evening a meeting of the inhabitants of Rochester, Chat ham, Strood, and Brompton, was held in the Guildhall, Rochester, pursuant to a requisition to the Mayor signed by nearly 300 tradesmen of the neighbourhood, for the purpose of adopting measures for the general early closing of places of business. The Mayor occupied the chair. The several resolutions having been carried by acclama tion, a committee was named for the purpose of forming an association of the tradesmen of the towns in order to carry out the system of early closing, which is to com mence from Monday next. 'Thanks-having been voted to the Mayor the meeting separated. The hall was so crowded on the occasion that it was difficult to obtain admission. It was fortunate that the meeting was brought to a close at the time it was, for scarcely five minutes afterwards a chandelier, hanging in the centre, of im mense weight—under which, but a few minutes pre viously, a dense packed crowd had been standing—fell with a tremendous crash. Sir William Denison has left town to embark for Van Diemen's Land, to assume the government of that colony. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. Sergeant . ADA AIS, As s istant Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates.) ROBBERY IN AN OMNIBUS. C. M'Caskill was indicted, on Thursday, charged with having stolen seven half-crowns in an omnibus, from a lady of the name of Sorrell, on the 10th of September. Mr. Wilde defended the prisoner. It appeared from the testimony of the prosecutrix that on the day in question she had taken her seat in an om nibus with the intention of going to Poplar, and had scarcely taken her seat ere the prisoner got in. At that moment there was only an elderly lady besides themselves in the carriage. Shortly after both were seated the prisoner, addressing the other passenger, in quired if she could favour him with change for a sove - reign. The reply was in the negative; whereupon he put a similar question to the prosecutrix, wkp made the like answer. A minute or two subsequen!Yy, however, re collecting that she had a sufficiency of silver in her pocket, she told him she should be happy to meet his wishes. She accordingly gave him eight half-crowns, when he placed - in her hand in return a coin which, on examina tion, proved to be a shilling. The prosecutrix instantly called his attention to the circumstance, presuming that he had made an unintentional mistake, bat was much sur prised at his taking back the shilling and giving her as its substitute one of her own half-crowns. She remon strated with him, but he instantly told the omnibus con ductor to stop the carriage, which having been done, he got out, tendering the very shilling which she had her self returned to him in payment, remarking that the lady was a friend of his, and he would pay for the two. The prosecutrix indignantly repudiated all knowledge of the man, and accused him of having robbed her. The prisoner ran off, but ere he could get beyond her reach she laid hold of his coat tail, and called for the police. The prisoner endeavoured to free himself from her clutches, but the lady was too powerful in her grasp, and retained her hold until a policeman came up, into whose care she handed him. The prisoner was ultimately con veyed to the station-house and searched, when the seven half-crowns and a sixpence were found in his hand. Upon being asked for the sovereign for which he had required the change, he said he did not possess one. Two policemen were engaged in the affair, and to the one he said that he had not got any money, whilst to the other, who forced his hand open, he stated the half crowns, as well as the sixpence, to be his own. IA the cross-examination of this witness, it was elicited that upon inquiring about the prisoner, he had ascertained that he was a highly respectable man, living in the Bing's-road, Chelsea. A publican of the name of Webb stated that the prisoner had borrowed a shilling of him a few minutes only before he had entered the omnibus. As many as thirty duplicates were found in the prisoner's pockets. Mr. WILDE, on behalf of the pisoner, submitted that the offence of which he was accused, especially as:proved, was not a felony. He was prepared to cite a case ex actly in point. His Lordship would find it in the 9th of Carrington and Payne, page 741, and it was under the head of " The Queen v. C. Thomas." There the pri soner was indicted for stealing a sovereign, the property of Thomas fins.- It appeared that the prosecutor and the prisoner, having entered a beer-shop, were drinking together, and that the prosecutor, who had agreed to treat the prisoner, took a sovereign out of his pocket for the purpose of paying, and offered it to the landlady to change, and upon her declaring her inability to do so, she placed it on the table, and the prisoner thereupon said, " I'll go and get change." The prosecutor said, " You won't come b ac k w i t h t h e c h ange, " to which the prisoner replied, " Never fear;" and, taking up the sovereign, left the house and did not return again. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor that he was not aware of the last remark of the prisoner, nor at first that he had gone out wih the sovereign, but he had not offered any oppo sition to the prisoner taking it, having left the sovereign on the table after his reply to the prisoner's offer. The Learned Counsel in this case, on behalf of the prisoner, then contended, that as the taking had been with intent to get the change, any subsequent felonious intent of converting it to his own use would not constitute a trespass sufficient to render it a felony ; and that the prosecutor having parted with the legal posses sion of the sovereign, the subsequent appropriation of the money by the prisoner did not amount to larceny. Mr. Justice Coleridge observed that the passive conduct of the prosecutor was a sufficient sanction of the taking. The Learned Counsel for the prosecutor (Mr. lluddle stone) submitted that the prosecutor had not divested himself of the property in the sovereign by even giving it to the prisoner for change, and that it remained his till it was actually changed. Mr. Justice Coleridge (having conferred with Mr. Baron Gurney) said, " It appeared quite clear that the prosecutor, having per mitted the sovereign to be taken away for change, could never have expected to receive back again the same specific coin, and he had therefore divested himself, at the time of the taking, of the entire possession of the sovereign, and consequently he thought that there was not a sufficient trespass to constitute a larceny." The prisoner was accordingly acquitted. Now, his Lordship would see that the prosecutrix, having given the eight half-crowns to the prisoner, never could have expected to have received the self-same pieces of coin again, She had, therefore, divested herself of all possession of them. It was manifest that when the lady handed over the half crowns she had not expected to receive them, but a so vereign back. Possession consequently had been given up ere there had been any appropriation by the prisoner. The Learned JUDGE raid, if the judges of the superior courts had expressed an opinion in such a case that the transfer of the money was complete by the mere handing over of the half•crowns, without the sovereign having been given to her, then the argument of the Learned Counsel might carry some weight with it. It was quite clear to him that the lady had parted with the half crowns upon the faith that she a as to receive a sovereign in return for them. In his opinion there was no complete transfer of ownership in the half-crowns, because the sovereign had not been given in exchange. Mr. fAYNE, as amicus curia, remarked that that was the customary principle. In the case of " the Queen v. Oliver," 2 Leach, 1,072, one man had offered to give another gold for notes. The prosecutor placed the notes on the table for the purpose of their being changed for gold. The defendant took them up and ran away. There the court held that the act was larceny, and the jury thereupon found that the defendant had the animus' furandi at the moment when the act was committed. Then, again, in the case of a man named Williams, re. ported 6 Carringt,in and Payne, 370, the man went into a shop and asked for change for half-a-crown. The shopman gave him 2s. 6d. The prisoner did not give the half-crown, but took up the 2s. 6d. and ran away. The Court held that the offence committed was a larceny. The Learned JUDGE was quite clear upon that point, but as there appeared to have been two opposite decisions according to the view of the Learned Counsel for the prisoner, he would ask the opinion of the judges, for the purpose of removing all doubt in future. A number of witnesses of the greatest respectability gave the prisoner the highest character. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned JUDGE ordered that the prisoner should be brought up for judgment upon another occasion. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Yesterday Edward Evans, a draper's assistant out of place, was brought before Sir W. Magniy, charged with obtaining goods by false pretences from various whole sale houses. Mr. Stillwell, of White Lion-street, Norton-folgate, stated that on the sth of September the prisoner came in and asked for a piece of crimson damask. A piece was shown to him, and ho approved of the quality. The prisoner had been in the habit of coming for goods from Messr3. Miles and Edwards (now flindley and Sons), in Oxford-street, and witness was about to make out the invoice to them, when the prisoner observed he had left them, and was at Gillow's, in Oxford•.street. Witness made out the invoice accordingly, and delivered it with the goods to the prisoner. On the following Tuesday he came again, and said he wanted another piece of the same sort. Mr. Meteyard (one of the firm of Gillow and Co.), liked it very much, and was going to send this piece to a lady in South Audley-street. The value of the two pieces was upwards of 401. Aaron Burgess, in the service of Mr. Grimolt, of Milk street, silk manufacturer, deposed to the prisoner having obtained a rich piece of tabaret from him on the 26th of August, pretending he had been sent from Messrs. Saunders, in Regent-street. He delivered it, having known the prisoner in the trade for six or seven years past. _ _ There were some other cases, and the pawnbrokers produced the goods. . ___ _ Packman, One of the City detective officers, stated, that some of the property discovered had not yet been owned. Ten duplicates were found at the prisoner's lodging, and one of them related to a piece of very wide window line, containing about forty yards, pledged on the 19th of September; and another to about eighty yards of purple silk, pledged on the 21st of August. It seemed to be the practice of the prisoner to pledge the goods on the same day he obtained them. The owners of these had not been discovered. Lewis Harris, assistant to Mr. Walter, a pawnbroker, in Goswell-street, with whom the tabaret was pledged, said, when he questioned the prisoner about his name, he pulled 'out his pocket-book and tore out a leaf on which he wrote it. William Goodeve, the City policeman who had the prisoner in eustody, produced the pocket-book he found on the prisoner. The leaf for the 34th week was want ing, and that produced by the pawnbroker corresponded exactly in the part where it was torn. Sir W. MAGNAY said, he had heard quite enough to warrant the remanding of the prisoner. The prisoner was remanded for a week. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Robert Long Andrews, a young man, was summoned by Fanny Andrews, his wife, for ill-treatment. The wife said she had been married not more than two months, and ever since she had had bitter reason to repent her choice. She had only been married eight or ten days when her husband began to ill-treat her. Being of a lively disposition, and fond of laughing, her husband, whenever she laughed, beat her about the face. If she attempted to joke or play with him he turned upon her in a savage mood, and repulsed and struck her. lie had pledged all her clothes, and, in addition, frequently kept her without food. On Saturday last he seized her by the hair of the head, and knocked her head against the wall, merely because she pulled his hair playfully as he was lying on the sofa. The husband, in reply to the charge, said, in a surly tone, that his wife wouldn't let him alone. lle wanted to lie on the sofa to read a good book, as he was a Me thodist, but his wife would not let him alone, but kept on teasing him by pulling his hair. The wife said that her husband could be frolicsome with other girls when they called, without treating them in the same savage way as he treated her. A woman was called, :who said she had often wit neseed the huebaide ill-mage et' hie:young wife, no wife was of a lively temper, and naturally thought she could joke with her husband, but whenever she did so her hus band was sure to beat her. The wife was frequently left without proper food. The wife's mother came forward, and said her daugh ter had married against her parents' consent. The hus band had taken the girl away from a good home, and had put her into a shabby lodging, where there were few comforts, and where she was frequently without more than one meal a day. The girl had a good stock of clothes when she left her home, but now all her clothes were pledged by her husband, even to her flannel petticoat. " A pretty sort of a man he must be," con tinued the mother, warmly, " to pledge his wife's flannel petticoat. But it's just as I foresaw. I told my poor girl, before she was married, that I was sure Robert would beat her; but she said she was fond of Robert, and she knew he would treat her kindly. My girl is of a very lively temper, and when ahe used to be playing about and joking at home her husband used to say that he liked lively girls. Why, I've -been married twenty four years, and I often play and joke with my husband and pull his hair, but I don't expect to be beaten for that."—(Laughter.) Mr. HARDWICK asked the - young woman what she wished to do? The wife said she wished to part from her husband, provided he would allow her a trifle out of his earnings towards her support. Mr. HARDWICK—What will you allow your wife ? Husband—Shan't allow her a halfpenny. Mr. HARDWICK —Your wife says she cannot endure any longer your brutal and unmanly treatment, and that, therefore, she must separate from you. I think she has reason for her resolution, and I am of opinion that you ought to make her the required allowance. Husband—Shan't allow her a farthing. Mr. HARDWICK—Then I fine you 51., or, in default of payment, two months' imprisonment. MARYLEBONE. Thomas Dell, a cab-driver, was charged with leaving his cab unattended ; also with being drunk and assault ing police-constable Handley, 121 S. The case was first brought before the magistrate a few days ago, and it was then adjourned in order that time should be afforded for producing witnesses on the part of the defendant. Numerous cases have of late been dismissed by magistrates at the various metropolitan police-courts, upon the evidence given by policemen, and it will be seen from the subjoined statement that another case of perjury has been committed, in order to ensure, if possible, a conviction. Mr. Davies, solicitor, Princes-street, L e i ces t er - square , attended for the defendant.. Handley's evidence was to the effect that on the 24th ult., at half-past nine in the evening, he saw a cab stand ing by the Jolly Gardeners, Crescent-street, Euston square, unattended, and he therefore laid hold of the horse with the view of taking the vehicle away, when defendant came up and struck him violently with his badge. He was very drunk, and witness conveyed him to the station-house. In his cross-examination by Mr. Davies, witness ad mitted that it was 11 o'clock when he took defendant in charge. Another constable and sergeant were called, both of whom deposed to the prisoner being the worse for drink. Mr. Forrest, an anatomical artist, residing at 33, Southampton-street, Euston-square, stated that he gut into the cab in Drummond-street, accompanied by a friend, and desired to be driven to Long-acre ; on the way he and his friend alighted at the Jolly Gardeners, Crescent-street, and while they were partaking of some refreshment at the bar, his (witness's) attention was at tracted by a noise near the door. He went out, and saw the policeman taking fast hold of the reins of the horse's head; the defendant, who had been taken into custody, did not inflict any blow whatever upon the officer, but the latter shook him, without any occasion for so doing, in a most violent and unwarrantable manner. Mr. Phillipps corroborated the preceding evidence, and it was quite clear from the replies which he and Mr. Forrest made to questions put to them, that the cabman was perfectly sober; he had taken up a fare at Steven's Hotel, and had not set his party down at the railway station more than five minutes when he was engaged by Mr. Forrest. Mr. Davis, addressing the magistrate, said, that from the evidence brought forward, he thought that enough had been stated to justify a dismissal of the police-con s table's charge. Mr. LONG expressed an opinion, after the evidence which he had heard, that the defendant was not drunk, as stated by the officers, and he (defendant) was there fore discharged. John Jones, a well-dressed young man, was placed at the bar, charged with having indecently exposed himself to a young woman, named Mary Ryles, servant to Mr. Price, Gloucester Cottage, Upper Albany-street, Regent's Park. The short facts of the case are these:—Com plainant was watering some flowers at the kitchen window on the previous evening, when the prisoner came up to the front of the house, and there committed the offence imputed to him. She communicated what had taken place to her master, who pursued the prisoner, and, after a hard run, succeeded in collaring him. He was given into the custody of 292 S, and on the way to the station-honse, he said he went to the place for a Particular purpose, and he had no intention of insulting any one. The prisoner denied the charge imputed to him, and said that, having just left an adjacent mews, he was ad justing his dress, and, having done so, was going away, when Mr. Price laid hold of him. He was quite inno cent of the offence alleged against him. The MActsTnAms, after putting one or two further questions to the witnesses, came to the conclusion that the charge had been satisfactorily substantiated, and sentenced the prisoner to three months, with hard la bour, in the House of Correction. WORSHIP4fREET. Thomas Plummer, described as a bedstead maker, was placed at the bar before Mr. Binghhm, charged with as saulting and wounding a poor woman named Mary Red ford, who appeared in Court with one of her eyes en tirely closed and bore numerous other evidences of most brutal usage. ' The complainant stated, that after struggling for a long time, procuring a precarious subsistence by needle work, and enduring the greatest privation, she was at length induced to accept the prisoner's overtures and place herself under his protection, but had ever since been subjected by him to a continued series of privation, cruelty, and ill-treatment. On the preceding afternoon he returned home in a state of partial intoxication, and not findi ng a h ot di nner p rov id e d f or hi m, although he had not left her the means of procuring it, assailed her with the foulest epithets, and seizing a poker, struck her such a violent blow on the back of her head with it that she instantly fell to the ground stunned and in sensible. On recovering her feet the prisoner again at tacked her, heatheg her about the head with his fists, closing up one of her eyes as the magistrate then saw her, a second time felled her to the ground, and re peatedly kicked her with such violence that nearly the whole of her person was covered with bruises. Her screams at length attracted the attention of some of the lodgers in the house, who rescued her from further ill usage, and carried her up to bed, in which she remained for several hours unable to move, but at last succeeded in making her way down stairs to the street-door, where she waited until a policeman came up, into whose cus tody the prisoner was given. In answer to the charge the prisoner said that he ac knowledged having struck the woman with th e p o k er i n the man ner s h e h ad described, but declared that he had acted under feelings of the strongest provocation, induced by the exciting language she had used towards him. Mr. 13iiimum characterised the case as one of the worst of its kind that had ever come under his notice, and, regretting his inability to subject the accused to a greater punishment, ordered him to pay the highest amount of penalty it was in his power to impose— namel7, 51., and in default of so doing he must stand committed to the House of Correction for two months, with hard labour. _ _ The prisoner was unable to pay the fine, and at the close of the Court was removed to gaol in the van. L AMB E TH. William "Inglis, a notorious thief and a desperate cha racter, was placed at the bar before Mr. Norton on a charge of violently assaulting and attempting to rob Mr. Robert Calton,: a toy-manufacturer, residing in Kennington -green, on the preceding night. Mr. Calton, whose countenance bore the most un equivocal proofs of savage violence, both his eyes being blackened, his cheeks and lips much cut, and his whole face in fact presenting a swollen mass of discolouration, nuts, and contusions, deposed that he had been to the King's Arms public- house, Lower Kennington-lane, on the night before, and there met the prisoner, who claimed acquaintance with him, and said he knew him well, though he might not recollect him. He (prosecutor) was at this time a little the worse for drink, but still knew very well what he was about, and prisoner and himself left the King's Arms together and went to the Black Prince, in Princes-road, Kennington. They left about half-past twelve, and the prisoner would insist upon seeing him home from the Black Prince. When they had got near to his (prosecutor's) house the prisoner said he should go part of the way home with him; but he refused to do so, upon which he struck him three or four desperate blows on the face, and knocked him down. The instant he f e ll t h e prisoner knelt on hi s 'sliest and tried his utmost t o f orce opeu h i s coat , an d ge t a t his watch, which was in .his right-hand waistcoat pocket, but he held it tight and called out " Murder" as loud as he could holloa, when fortunately a constable came up and :took the prisoner off him. He then got up and found that his watchguard was broken, though it had been perfect just before the prisoner's attack. The prosecutor further stated that before be got opposite to his own house he found the prisoner pressing closely upon him, and he in consequence buttoned up his coat, bnt the prisoner unbuttoned it. He buttoned it up a second time, and had not proceeded many paces further when the prisoner, as he had before stated, struck him. The two black eyes, the cut lips, and the several other cuts and bruises on his face, were all the effects of the prisoner's violence. Mr. Thomas Henry Evans, the landlord of the Black Prince public-house, iu Princes-read, Kennington, de posed that the prosecutor and prisoner came into his house together on the preceding night, at about a quarter-past 12 o'clock, andappeared friends, and drank t ogether. They remained at his to be excellent out a watch from his pocket, house about a quarter of an h our , an d w hil e th ere th e prisoner kept dra w i ng which ho partly disp layed to the prosecutor, and said once or twice he had that to fall back upon if he should be out of work. Police-constable Samuel Clerk, 14 L, said that about a quarter before one o'clock that morning he heard a cry of " Murder," and on running to the spot whence it proceeded, he saw the prisoner rise from off the prose cutor, who was calling " Murder." The prosecutor in stantly gave charge of the prisoner for assaulting and attempting to rob him of his watch. The prisoner re plied, " What me ? I only came to see you home." And the prosecutor said, yes, you vagabond ! And to rob me." The prosecutor, who was intoxicated, was bleeding profusely from the face, and the prisoner had also evidently been drinking, but pretended to be worse for liquor than he really was. Oa searching the pri soner at the station-house he found upon his person, with some other things, a " sham" watch, which he then produced. He also found, where the prosecutor had been knocked down, a watch key belonging to Mr. Calton, and which had been torn away from the watch guard chain. This witness added that the prosecutor was ko severely cut and bruised that it was found neces sary to send for a surgeon to attend him at the station house. Charles Burgess Goff, a police-sergeant, 9 L, said he was present at the Surrey Assizes, Kingston, in March, 1845, and heard the prisoner convicted of stealing a copper, and sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment. The prisoner had also been frequently in custody for other charges, and when the present case was dis posed of, he (Sergeant Goff) should request his wor ship to order his being brought up on a future day, as he had no doubt, from information which had reached him, that he was concerned in a daring burglary a few nights ago, and of being able to establish that charge against him. The prisoner, in reply to the charge of assault and attempted robbery, said he did not intend to rob the pro secutor, and that he should not have assaulted him had he not been drinking, He was fully committed on the charge, but ordered to be brought up again on that day week to meet the charge of burglary. IRELAND. DUBLIN, SEPT. 30.—The progress of discontent has ended in bloodshed, and serious riots have taken place at Dungarvan, in the course of which the military fired on the people. The following particulars are extracted from a letter received to-day by the correspondent of a London morning journal : " Dungarvan, Tuesday Evening. " Serious riots, I grieve to say, have taken place in this town. Yesterday vast numbers of people, to the amount of eleven or twelve thousand, marched in here from the surrounding country, and proceeded to attack bakers' shops, from which they took quantities of bread. The mob were about to attack the stores of merchants and others, but, fortunately, a troop of Dragoons, which had been ordered in consequence of the apprehension of riots, arrived from Kilmacthomas, and, with the co operation of the military force already here, pre vented further depredations. In the afternoon, how ever, in the dusk of the evening, some of the popu lace commenced throwing stones, and the Dragoons had to charge them repeatedly. The people, however, still continued throwing stones, and the state of affairs began to look very serious. The Dragoons were then ordered to fire, and it is stated about twenty shots were discharged. Two men were seriously wounded. They are still living; but several others, it is feared, were wounded more or less severely amongst the crowd, who fled subsequently to the firing. The town has been since perfectly free from all disturb ance; but dreadful excitement and alarm prevail amongst all classes here. It was owing to the commendable for bearance of the military that much more disastrous re sults did not ensue. " The shipping of grain from this port to Liverpool had been suspended, owing to reports that the fishing boats prevent any vessels from exporting food; but one of the merchants is now about to dispatch a vessel with wheat. "So far as I can learn, those riots are attributable to discontent amongst the peasantry as to the amount of wages on the public works—no definite sum having been fixed as yet. In the first instance, eightpencc a day was offered, but the people refused that rate as utterly in sufficient. Tenpence was then offered, but also refused. In the course of yesterday a written paper was handed from the people to the magistrates, requiring that their wages should be one shilling per day, and that they should be supplied with Indian meal at a corresponding price by the stone, to enable them to give sustenance to their families. My own impression is, that if those terms are complied with we shall have no further dis turbances." MEASURES OF RELIEF. Amidst a host of letters which appear day after day in the public prints upon the all-engrossing topic of the Labour-rate Act, as applicable to the present crisis, the following extract from a communication, bearing the signature of " A Member of the Legislature," and pub lished in the Mail of this evening, is, perhaps, worthy of notice, as the writer starts some suggestions which have at least the advantage of originality to distinguish them from the general run of essays upon the same subject : " Tax Ireland on the principle of the Ist of Victoria, via. by granting her as a gift one-h a lf t h e sum requ i re d , and charge Ireland with the other half. Expend these moneys by improving the country and the land. Let it be done by the parishes or townlands which pay the tax, receiving the benefit of it, according very much to Mr. Monsell's system. Aid railways which can give security, and thus relieve the districts through which they will pass. Cut down no more paltry hills; demoralise the labourers no further • improve the land at present in tillage be fore you undertake the drainage of vast bogs and the reclamation of mountains, which will consume years b,3 fore they give a return ; drain what you have in hand ; liberate estates from entails ; pass an Act to determine titles to estates, and no longer allow lawyers and attor neys to fatten, while, by quirks and chicane, they pre vent the transfer of property, and the advances of money on good security. The repeal of the usury laws should be considered; that Act has created hordes of great and small blood-suckers, who are consuming the vitals of the land. Tax all persons, having charges on the land, on the same principle as the income-tax. " Prevent, by a simple Act, the subdivision of land, which is the foundation of the misery of Ireland. I re gret to say, I am convinced that, until the priests are paid, you cannot effect this object. Their power and their interest is hourly exercised to subdivide the land for their own emolument. To what a condition has this system brought the country 1 However unpalatable, this is a truism. Stop perjury, as Lord Westmeath says, in the courts, by appointing officers to take down evidence, and prosecute when necessary. " I should wish to see agricultural schools established, by grand jury taxation, in every barony. I firmly be lieve they would be essentially reproductive, by instruct ing the farmers. Enable landowners, by loans, to do more than merely drain—enable them to erect sound dwellings and offices for the tenantry, which the late Drainage Act does not comprehend, and thus improve the habits of the people. Establish at once depots of Indian corn all over the country as soon as possible—no time is to be lost. " So much for the present moment ; for the future I respectfully recommend emigration. The potato, as a food, I consider is lost ; it will take five years before a substitute can be found, and generally used. We have, therefore, to provide, to a great extent, food for the people for five years. It would be truly advantageous to expend a considerable portion of the taxation you aro about to impose, and must inflict, on a comprehensive system of emigration ; thus you relieve the land of its superabundant population, and probably place the pea santry who emigrate in a far superior position than they could ever expect at home. The expense of feeding them for five years would be greater than finding them the means of emigrating ; — a family can be loc a t e d i n a colony for 451. ; you could not feed the same family for that sum, under existing eireumstaneas." A baronial sessions Was held in Bin on Monday last, at which the Earl of Bosse presided, and delivered an extremely sensible speech upon the working of the Labour-rate Act, expressing his determination to see it carried out both in the letter and spirit of its provisions. His Lordship also took occasion to dissent from the statements put forward by the gentry of Cork with re spect to the embarrassed position of the landed pro prietors. The Noble Earl's words are : " There have been one or two meetings held in Cork lately, at which there had been said, in my opinion, I respectfully say, a great deal foolishly. I don't think that the present position of the landed proprietors of Ireland has one iota to do with the practical operation of this Act. I can say, with respect to this barony and county, that 20 or 30 years ago there was a larger amount of encumbered property in it than there is at present, and which has passed into other hands since then. • • • • • • • • • . I am sure that this barony is as well able to bear taxa tion as any other county or barony in Ireland. But we should see the tendency to which this Act leads—use should all exert ourselves to have some return of useful public and productive work for tkis money which we will thus expend. In certain districts in England the Labour-rate Act was practically in force for a consider able time. The old English Poor Law, as it existed 15 years ago in several localities in that country, but par ticularly in Sussex, was made so as to be a Labour rate Act, similar to this: Act, but different from it in this respect, that this Act is temporary in its na ture, whereas the other could be kept in for ce f or any number of years.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) And what was the fact ? There was no parish in England where it was in operation but was greatly impoverished by it ; each year became worse and worse through its means ; and in various places many persons were found to be in a state of bankruptcy by its operations.—(Hear, hear.) Now, I say that the result of the operation of the Labour rate Act in England bears sufficient testimony to the course that we ought to pursue in reference to employ ing the funds raised for the employment of the people on works of public utility, and, if that be not done, I verily believe that many parishes in Ireland must very soon be inevitably brought to the same condition as that parish in England which I have given you as an illustration." Of the reckless—but perhaps generous —manner in which money is voted away without regard to the future, the Mayo Constitution furnishes the following illustra tion, and this is by no means a solitary case " Let us now sum up the confiscations that have taken place in this country, and we venture to say that any thing so monstrous—so uncalled for—has not been per petrated in any other part of the kingdom : Ordnance Valuation.

It was pro posed to reduce the time one-half ; but, from an anxiety for the workers, it was finally determined to work two thirds of the usual time ; this change to commence in the beginning of November. It is with pain, for the sake of the large body of workers concerned, that we make this announcement ; but we believe the step taken to be one of necessary caution. It is understood that the Drogheda mill-owners, also, are, or will soon be, on short time." WILLS. THE WILL OF THE HON. Mn. JUSTICE WILLIAMS.— The late Sir John Williams, Knight, one of her Majes ty's Justices of the Court of Queen's Bench, had settled on his wife at marriage a sum of 40,0001., and, as she is the survivor, and there is no issue, the same will be at her disposal by deed or will, The trustees, under the settlement, were Lord Brougham, the late Lord Abinger, and the late Sir Robert Wilmot Horton. With a por tion of that sum was purchased the estate of Dowsby Hall, Lincoln, producing a rental of -- 1,2001. a-year, and the other portion invested in the funds. By his will he directs that his executors shall secure to her an income of not less than 2,0001. a y ear. Devises and bequeaths all his real estate, and the residue of his personal estate, to trustees and executors, to convert the personalty into money, and invest the same, on good security. The funded and personal property was valued for duty at 25,0001.; the real estate is not to be sold during the life-time of Lady Williams. Bequeaths to her the house in Grosvenor-square as a residence, and leaves her all his furniture, plate, pic tures, and books (except law books), also the car riages, horses, &c., and a portion of the residue—the whole being divided into thirty-seven parts. Six parts to Lady Williams, six to Captain A. Jones, four to the Captain's brothers and sisters, four to John Richard son, Esq., four to Mr. Smith, of Altree, four to Mr. Mortimer, three to the children of the late Rev. F. Howes, of Norwich, two to the Rev. Dr. Lally, two to his bro ther Edmund Lally, Esq., and two to such of testa tor's cousins, the Miss Bennions, as are living. There are specific pecuniary bequests, viz., to his executors, John Palfrey Burrell, Esq., of Gray's Inn, 1,0001.; and Peter Bellinger Brodie, Esq., of Lincoln's Inn-fields, 5001.; to his godson, Lord Gifford, 5001.; the Rev. J. Bolden, 5001.; Mr. Edward Brady, 3001.; Mrs. Archer, 3001.; his clerk, 10014 his groom, 50/. This Learned Judge died at his seat, Livermere Park, Suffolk, on the 14th of September, at the age of 70, having executed his will only a fortnight before his death. Sir Charles Wetherell's personal estate has just been administered to by Lady Wetherell, and a stamp duty paid on 250,000/. The late John Bostock, M.D., of Bedford-place, Bloomsbury, who died on the 6th of August, left personal property amounting to 25,000/. He executed his will in 1844, to which is appended two codicils, wherein he pro vides for an annuity of 5001. to his wife, and, on her decease, leaves 4,000/. to his daughter, and has left to each a legacy. Devises his real estate to his son, John Ashton Rostock, Esq., to whom he also leaves the residue of the personal estate, and is the acting executor. Captain Sir Spencer Lambert Hunter Vassal!, R.N., K. 11., late of Hyde Park-gardens, made his will about three weeks before his death, in words to this effect—" I give and bequeath all my money and other personal pro p( rty to my dear wife, and appoint her and my brother, Major R. Vassal!, executors of my will, and refer them for directions respecting my affairs to a paper of memo randums." These memorandums, containing many specific bequests, were not entitled to probate, being made subsequent to the will, and unattested. George Alexander, M.D., formerly in the service of the Honourable East India Company, afterwards of Temple House, Hammersmith, and late of Sussex terrace, Hyde Park, has devised his messuage at Southampton, called " Woodbine Cottage," and the farms and land called " Gibbs," and all other real estate to his son, Harvey Alexander ; bequeaths the sum of 53,000 sicca rupees standing in his name in the East India Company's books, in trust, so as to produce certain annuities payable to his wife, his two sons, and two daughters, and the principal thereof to be at their separate disposal by will; also annuities to his sisters, Mrs. Angus and Mrs. Watson, for specific pur poses. All medical books to his nephew Alexander Angus, M.R.C.S., in London. Leaves the furniture, plate, &c. , to his wife absolutely, together with the residue of the personal estate. He died at the age of sixty-nine, on the 4th of August last. The late Mr. Daniel Haigh, of Furzedown, Streatham, Surrey, died intestate and a widower, leaving funded and personal property amounting to 350,000/. His son, William Haigh, Esq., has just administered to his effects. Sir Thomas Grey, lint., M.D., F.R.S., late of Rams gate, and many years a magistrate of the county of Kent, and the Cinque Ports, has bequeathed the whole of his real and personal estate to the daughter of his late wife, Lady Katherine Grey, by her former husband, subject to the payment of legacies and annuities to his servants.

Now that the Royal Family, like the Spectre of Otranto, is becoming too large fur its habitation, it is certain that the palace, somehow, must be applied to another than its present purpose. It may be a very good plan to rend er th at b u i lding, which can no longer furnish a nursery to royalty, a nursery of art and science ; but we think we can suggest a better. Why should not the royal lodging, when vacated, be made to contribute to t h e payment of the ex penses of building another ? Let the different apartments in the palace out to the different metropolitan exhibitionists. The Industrious Fleas might be established in the Green Drawing-room; Miss Linwood's Exhibition might be transferred to the Picture Gallery, the Banqueting room might be tenanted by the Speaking Automaton; the Throne room might receive Madame Tussaud's Collectio n , and the Fourth George, resuming his seat, would look, i n hi s robes, as large and natural as life. The Hall of Buckingham might be converted into the Hall of Rome, whilst the private apartments might be appropriat e ly t a k en possess ion of by Tom Thumb. Thus might this edifice, which is at present neither ornamental nor useful, at all events acquire a title to the latter epithet. So much for Buckingham—Palace I —Punch. A HEAVY WEIGHT.—On Tuesday evening last, the celebrated ° stout lady," Mrs. Armitage, who had been for some time exhibited here, was desirous to chango her locality to Glasgow, and found her way f or that purpose to the terminus at flay Weights; but none of the railway carriages were found sufficiently capacious to admit her great bulk; and after some consultation among the officials here it was found necessary, as the only alternative left, to put up a horse-box for the con veyance of the nearly 32 stone weight female, in which we understand she got safely and comfortable to the west of the city."—Caledonian Mercury.

These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters everyliving crea ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths • nature, et human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is net contended that every reader shall become his or her ow* physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of as in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health aid happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the la e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body nay be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.
