AMAN, of a gentlemanly address, came, on the 27th of Sept. last, about six in the evening, to the BATH CITY TEMPERANCE HOTEL, Sawclose, Bath, where he lodged till Sunday last, the 15th ult., when he died suddenly. An inquest was had on the body, and a verdict returned that he died of a "determination of blood to the head." He was apparently about 40, of a dark complexion, hair and whiskers dark or black, the whiskers rather full, dark eyes, and an acquilinc nose—he was handsome. His height about 5 feet 7 inches. His clothes arc all black ; he was extremely reserved, and was never seen in the com pany of any one. He generally walked out the greater part of the day ; he never went to bed so late as 11, and never rose later than 9, except the day before his death, when he lay in bed, saying he had a head-ache, which he often had, and usually got rid of it by lying longer in bed. He had four phial bottles in his portmanteau, which had contained laudanum, some being left ; it is supposed lie was in the habit of taking it. He had some white lump sugar in his coat pocket. On two pair of stockings _are the initials G. S.; his hat is made by Downs and Co., 246, High Holborn. He had arrived at the same Hotel somewhere about the 12th of Sept. last. He then stayed six days ; then he left for ten days ; and subsequently returned, as above stated, on the 27th. He said he had been at Tewkesbury. It is not known where he came from; property to a large amount. depends on the inquiry. Communications from relatives (post paid) may be directed to A. Huddleston Engl;sh, Esq., Coroner of Bath ; or to Mr. George Tucker, Temperance Coffee House, Bath, where a cast of the de ceased, taken after his death, may be seen. MINERAL SUCCEDANE:UM FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH, LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, AND LOSS OF TEETH SUPPLIED. Monsieur . M A LLAN and SON, Surgeon Dentist , , 32, GREAT It US_ sELI...sTREKr continue to restore DECAYED TEETH with their MINERAL SU&ED A NEU M, without pain, heat, or pressure (if which they arc the Sole INVENTORS and POSSESSORS), and I. ASTEN LOOSE TEETH, whither arising from age, neglect, diseas of the Gums, the use of Calomel, orany other cause. They have also discos cued a NEW COMPOSITION for ARTIFICIAL TEETH. A peculiar advantage attending Teeth made from this SUBST A NCR is, that they are totally im pervious to aids. ARTIFICIAL 'I SETH have hitherto been fount ob tectionable by INVALIDS taking MEDICI NES v hick have a tendency to DISCOLOU It them, and by persons of bilious habits. Messrs. M have been successful In obvihting these objections by their NEW , DISCO. V ERY and they can fix the above without extracting the STUMPS, and even on GUM, of the most tender nature, protecting the adjoining Teeth, however loose. No NIKES or LIGATURES are used, and they MATCH the 0 RIGI NAL TEETH in point of Shape and Colour. GUARANTEED for MASTICATION and ARTICULATION. NA _ 'FUR AL and ARTIFICIAL TEETH fixed on the same principle. Charges strictly moderate as in Paris. 32, Great Russell street, Bloomsbury. N B.

Original Letters at 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury. To Mr. Grimstone, Broad-street, Bloomsbury. Ophthalmic llospi6l, Chat ing-Cross. Sat, —Perceiving that in one of your bills my name is mentioned in unioa with that of my late patient Mr. Latclifield, I beg leave to confirm bis testimony, and state the great benefit derived by the use of your ex cellent herbaceous eye-snuff in his case, which was one of obstinate chronic ophthalmia, accompanied by opacity of the cornea, and a varicose state of the conjunctional vessels. His case was the first under my notice in which the preparation was used; but, being struck by the ad. vantageous results, 1 resolved to lay aside prejudices, and advise its use in some cases in my practice at this hospital. The benefit was great, and has led rile still further to recommend it, but, unfortunately, the funds of the hospital are low, and our patients too often cannot afford the purchase of your snuff, it being, from its price, almost as unattainable to the poor as patent medicine would be. If it be not asking too much, could you form any arrangement by which the really_ indigent patients of this instit u t i on could be supplied with the eye-snuff at a lower _price, on producing a re commendation to that effbct, signed b y me. If you could, I would ask you to be so kind as to write to me here on the subject ; in doing so you would perform a great act of charity, and the obligation would be felt, not only by the poor whom you would relieve, but liy your obedient servant, J. G. GUTHRIE. Mr. Grimstone has complied with the above humane request of Dr Guthrie Whitehall, March 8, ISII. Sift —I think it but justice that I should offbr my acknowledgments to you for the great benefit I have derived from the use of your most exquisite fragrant compound of herbs, called Eye Snuff. Its action on the membrane of the nose causing the lachrymal glands to discharge in a manner truly surprising, and by that means so cleansed thecornea, that my Eyes became healthy, gm - Ig, and performed their wonted duties in a manner that 1 have not known the blessing of for six years. The renowned Dr. Guthrie recommended me to by your Eye Snuff; prior to my undergoing an operation. Many thanks to him for his recommendation ; thanks to your invention, that operation will not bo necessary. Sir ' you have my permission to make this known in any manner you think best. I am, Sir, your obedient servant J. B. LACHFIELD. To Mr. Grimstone,39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury. P.S. Be pleased to send to the Thatched-house Tavern, St. James', street, at 4s. 4d., and two 2s 4d. canisters.. You can inclose the change in the parcel for the inclosed half-sovereign.—J. B. L. Carrime.—The only genuine is matiulactured by the inventor, W Grimstone, No. 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, and 24, King-street, Long- Acre, London, whose signature, with the above Royal patronage, is at tached to each canister. Sold in canisters, at Is. 3,1 , 2s. 4c1., 46. 4d., and 83. each. It may be obtained in all the principal towns and cities.

(ADVERTIStMENT.) SUSSEX NEWSPAPERS. (From the Brighton Guardian.) Some few weeks ago we published an extract, affecting the Sussex newspapers, from the Newspaper Stamp Returns made to the House of Commons in obedience to its order dated 30th June last ; and in so doing, ire limited our extract to the first five months of the half year which the return covered, and we did so for two reasons,—first, because the limited extract so made presented the true state, as near as might be without being precise, of the relative circulation of the papers,— secondly because we did not desire to accompany the publica tion by explanatory remarks, disturbing the simplicity of the return. Within the last few days however the return from which we obtained an extract has been printed and circulated; and we therefore, to prevent the public from being abused by attempts which will be made to impose upon it by fallacious numbers, now give the six months' return, with such remarks 38 we think necessary to give Advertisers a full understanding of the matter. The full return, then, is as follows : Return of the Number of Stamps issued by the Stamp Office, for all Newspapers in Great Britain and Ireland, from Ist January, 1837, to 30th June, both days inclusive, specifying each Newspaper by name, and the Number of Stamps issued each month during that period to each Newspaper.

Brighton Guardian -Sussex Advertiser Brighton Gazette 60,000 - —Brighton Herald Brighton Patriot Establishing the fact which we announced on the 19th of July last, "that the Brighton Guardian had attained the largest circulation in the county," outstripping its three seniors. The Sussex Advertiser has been in being nearly a century, the Brighton Herald 32 years, the Brighton Gazette rather better than 16 years, and the Guardian only 101- years; and it has now, as a reward of its incessant toils, its admitted industry, and its proverbial accuracy publicly acknowledged by one of its most determined political opponents, been placed at the head of the newspaper press of the county. This is a compli ment to which we are not insensible ; and as the Guardian was the first to introduce a full-sized newspaper into Sussex, and to lead the way in the improvements which have taken place in the county in the getting-up of newspapers generally, so we can assure the public, that none of its energies will be relaxed by the marked favour with which the exertions of its conductors have been honoured. But we dare say that some interested parties will be found to take exception to the annual computation we have made. Nay, we have already seen a deception attempted upon the public by parties who claim for our Tory Cotemporary a yearly circulation of 70,000 ; and to expose this cunning fraud upon the advertising public is our present purpose. The de ceivers say—that 35,000 stamps have been issued to the Tory journal in the six months between the Ist of January and 30th of June, that twice 35 is 70, and consequently that the cir culation of the Brighton Gazette is 70,000 in the year. Now this seems very plausible ; but when the hocus pocus is ex plained, it will be found to be as incorrect as the idea that " twice one and twenty and twice twenty-one" are one and the same thing. A moment's attentive observation of the above return will' satisfy every observer that the circulation of the Brighton Gazette does not exceed 5,000 per calendar month ; for it will be seen that although 10,000 stamps with its instinctive die were issued in February, not a single stamp was issued for it in ttie month (f April; whence it is clear that the 20,000 issued to it in the first three months of the year sufficed for its four months circulation, because till the fifth month has corn ,nenced, no fresh issue was made on its account ; and we are strongly inclined to believe, for reasons which we will, pee sently give, that part of the first three months' issue from tho stamp Office remained to supply at least the first week of the fifth month. But taking the ISSUE as the bona fide CONSUMP TION, it is clear beyond dispute that only 20,000 were used in four months by the Brighton Gazette, and that another 5,000 issued in May supplied its wants in that month. If then not more than 20,000 could be got rid of in four months, and the 'text 6,000 answered all the calls fur newspapers in May, can tny body doubt that the 10,000 issued in June was the supply for two months ? In computing therefore the annual con sumption of the Brighton Gazette, the advertising public will see the necessity of dividing the June supply between the months of June and July; and in that case it will be, as we :ave correctly stated it, 60,000, or 4,000 below the Brighton Guardian. But we are not sure that it is entitled to be ranked so high. ',Ve have already shown, taking for granted that it consumed month by month the stamps issued for its U3C, that in four uonths it could only have circulated more than 20,000 copies; but for reasons which we will now state, we are strongly in 'lined to believe that it had not circulated the whole of the 20,000 in the four mouths, and that enough remained to work •,ff its first publication in May. The Ist of May this year fell on the Monday, so that the 5,000 stamps issued with its in 'tinctive die in that month could not have reached Brighton till the 2nd. Now all persons connected with printing arc aware that paper before it is used for printing newspapers rec:aires to be well soaked in water for a very long time; and we believe it is the invariable practice of our Tory contempo rary to wet down his stamps on the Monday, which is none too soon. It follows, as a matter of course, that stamps not issued from the head office in London till the Monday could not be soaking in water in Brighton on the same day ; and as a further necessary consequence, that the first publication of the Brighton- Gazette in May, namely Thursday the 4th, was supplied from the stock-in-hand issued front the Stamp O f fice in the previous March There is still another reason for supposing this to be the case. Independently of the time being insufficient between Tuesday morning and Wednesday afternoon, when the Brigh ton Gazette goes to press, for the paper to soak properly, no newspaper proprietor since the institution of the instinctive die, woul4 risk the penalty of printing on unstamped paper, by delaying till the 2cl of the month the receipt of the stamps which he requires for use in the afternoon of the 3d ; and we are therefore confirmed in the opinion, in which we have no doubt all thinking persons will join, that in settling the circu lation of the Brighton Gazette at 20,000 for the first four months of the present year, we are ranking it higher than the absolute fact justifies. Supposint , that it had only stamps enough left from its March supply for its issue in the first week in May, and allowing—which, when we see such tricks are played, is scarcely justifiable,—that it did consume the whole of the 20,000 in the eighteen publications which, including the 4th May, it has made since the commencement of the year, we find that its actual annual circulation will be decreased to something less than 58,000, leaving it 6,000 in the rear of the Guardian, though it is its senior by six years. What the motive of the proprietors of the _Brighton Gazette was in ordering a supply of 5,000 in March, when it is mani fest that they had the greater portion of their February supply on hand, we shall leave others to decide ; we will only state the fact that a Tory Member, who has since been kicked out of the House of Commons by his constituency, moved early in April for newspaper returns; but by some mistake the order of the House was limited to the Metropolitan Press. Had the provincial issue been given at the same time, our Tory Contemporary would have been decked in the borrowed plumes of having had 20,000 stamps in three months ; whence an an nual computation of 80,000 would have been trumpeted to the world—with what honesty and approach to truth we leave the public to declare. Whether our Tory Contemporary received soy intimation from the Tory ex-Member fur Belfast, we know not; but it does seem curious that the consumption of April should have been anticipated by the issues in February and a r ad a os M wst March c tfled hppu;rbealtinec, design dx , bg we fear, when the public come to remark that the same mancuuvre 'is r e peat e d in J une , without the u t t h existedat to take it ‘s i at l ol mean caotnf notail and opinion odna lsyt dastardly thatshy )nest advantage to ,cards something like sd . of contemporaries whom these Tories dare not encounter on even terms, and saying little for the honesty of their profes sions of attachment to that holy Religion which inculcates principles of rectitude and honest dealing towards one's neigh bour. The same remarks apply to the your,; Brighton paper. Its first two issues lasted it four months, and 3,000 met all its little wants in the fifth. Its last issue was clearly meant to cover two months' demand. Besides the journals enumerated in the above extract, there is a thing got up and concocted between the Carlton Club manufactory for country newspapers and certain Tories at Lewes, which clamours to be included among the Sussex newspapers, --a distinction, which, when we recollect its am phibious character, if we may so apply the term, we cannot award to it. But it is Tory all over ; it is redolent of the peculiar h onesty an d a dh erence to truth which has time out qf mind characterised that political party. The thing is sent clown from London, as the cook says, " done on one side," ifter it has supplied some half dozen or more things of the same genus ; and at Lewes it is then finished off. This offshoot of the Carlton Club was first darted into this county on the 4th of February in the present year, and the gentlemen who blow the trumpet at this end of the line would fain persuade the world that it has already outstripped the Brighton Gazette, its like in politics, but its- vast superior in every other attribute that ennobles a newspaper. They would fain have the world believe that the Tories of Sussex, for getting the services rendered to their cause by the Brighton Gazette for the last sixteen years, have set it aside in favour of a thing which, when compared with that Gazette as a medium of county intelligence and as evincing the talent of its conductors, is contemptible in the extreme. We cannot think so meanly of the Tories; they are prover , * The Guardian is supplied in parcels of 4,000 each. t The Gazette in parcels of 6,000 each. Edward Aloxon, Dover-street.

PRICE sd. biely good masters, and would not treat our contemporary of the Brighton Gazette with so mucli ingratitude as to set his tried advocacy aside for a thing of yesterday's growth. Upon the advertising public the parties will not, we are sure, im pose) for they, like ours-Ives, will be sceptical in believing that a new publication in any part of England would at starting outstrip a contemporary of its own political creed not deficient in industry and zeal, while its own pretensions are of a deci dedly inferior character. The thin , * is too preposterous for a moment's serious consideration, anewhatever the hocus poeus of the unscrupulous Carlton Club may with its ample funds be able to accomplish, no man who knows anything of active life and of the county of Sussex will believe that half the papers taken out by the Carlton Club party for the Sussex edition of their paper ever comes into the county, or if they do, that they are not sent back again to furnish the trunk-makers of the metropolis, or applied to the more ignoble purpose of supply ing the domestic wants of the Conservative gang. We have said above that the thing is Tory all over ; of this we will give one specimen, and with that conclude : It professes to give the extent of its circulation ; and stat ing the number of stamps issued to it in the five months end ing 30th June, adds, " the 2,000 taken out in January for No. 1, published 4th Feb., and consequently are added to the total ;" and accordingly the 2,000 are added to the full amount of stamps issued in the five months and represented as the consumption of that period. But with true dory honesty, the parties forget to remind those upon whom they seek to impose that as their first publication for July (on the Ist), was printed in London on the 30th of June, a deduction should be made from that mopth's issue to the extent of the lit of July's consumption. Honesty is not however the Tory's policy, and we see it verified in this instance ; for while the parties in this case make no allowance for the stamps used by them in July, they elaisn to erowd into the February issue the previous month's 2,000, thus producing an exaggerated and false result. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF COMM,ON PLEAS, OCT. 24, THE DIRECTORS OF THE STANHOPE AND TYNE RAILWAY V. DARFORD AND OTHERS. This was an action brought by the Directors of the Stanhope and Tyne Railway Company against the de fendants, for a breach of contract. After hearing evidence at great length, The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE summed up, and left it to the Jury simply to decide between the conflicting state ments of the witnesses as to the construction of the terms of the Contract. If they should be of opinion that the defendants, by persisting in their intention of using cinder in the manufacture of the rails, which they contracted to furnish, had refused to comply with the terms of the con tract, they must find their verdict fot the plaintiffs ; but if, on the other hand, they should be convinced that the " best iron" might be composed of a portion of cinder; and that, consequently, the defendants were only prevented from fulfilling their engagement by the conduct of the plaintiffs themselves, the defendants would be entitled to a verdict at their hands. The Jury returned a verdict for the defendants. SHERIFF'S CO UR T—TUESDA r. (Before Mr. BuRcHELL.) cLakaicE AND ANOTHER V. - BAKER, ESQ. LIABILITY OF PARLIAMENTARY AGENTS.--This was an action brought to recover the sum of 891. 3s. for advertise ments inserted in the London and country newspapers, at the instance of the plaintiffs, by order of the defendant. Mr. OGLE (Counsel for plaintiffs) said this was an ac tion, brought by Messrs. Clarke and Lewis, advertisement agents, residing in the city, against the defendant, Mr. Baker, a most respectable Parliamentary agent, to recover the amount of a bill delivered for advertisements inserted in the public newspapers, relating to the Dublin and Drogheda Railway, by order of the defendant. The defendant had suffered judgment to go by default, thereby acknowledging that he was responsible to some extent, and consequently it was for the Jury to decide what damages the plaintiffs were entitled to. The facts of the case might be shortly stated. In May, 183 G, the defendant was engaged, in his profes sional capacity, to take the necessary measures for carry ing a Bill to constitute a railroad between Dublin and Drogheda through Parliament. In the execution of that duty he gave written and verbal orders to the plaintiffs to insert the necessary advertisements in the public newspa pers, which orders were complied with. Several witnesses were called, who proved that the plain tiffs caused the advertisements to be inserted in conse quence of the orders of the defendant, and that tie charges were fair and reasonable. Mr. CHADWICKE JONES said that he had the honour to appear for the defendant (Mr. Baker), who was a highly respectable parliamentary agent, and if the jury returned a verdict against him on the evidence adduced, it would have the effect of making parliamentary agents exceedingly careful how they undertook to carry bills through Parlia ment. The defendant was not certain that the proprietors of every newspaper in which the advertisem'nts had ap peared might not bring similar actions, for there was no proof that they looked to the plaintiffs solely for payment. Why did not Messrs. Clarke end Lewis proceed against Mr. Eyton, the Secretary of the Company, or the Direc tors, and then their claim would, in all probability, have been long ago satisfied ? If his (Mr. Jones's) client ad mitted he was liable for 101., it was no reason why the jury should say he was bound to pay the whole amount claimed by the plaintiffs, and he could - not anticipate such a result. Mr. BURCHELL—Do you call any witnesses? Mr. JONES—No, sir. The UNDER-SHERIFF, in summing up, said the ques tions for the Jury to decide were, whether the advertise 'ments had been inserted in the different newspapers, in con sequence of orders from the defendant ? and, secondly, whether they were satisfied the charges were fair and rea sonable ? On the first point it was clearly proved the de fendant gave either written or verbal orders for the inser tion of the advertisements. The Learned Counsel for the defence said there was no reason why the proprietors of every newspaper in which the advertisements appeared should not bring separate actions against the Directors of the Company. Now, the answer to any such actions would be plain and obvious. We know nothing about the matter : we employed Mr. Baker, and it is to that gentle-' man you must look for payment. The Learned Counsel for the defendant again said, if )ou find a verdict against my client it will make Parliamentary agents exceedingly careful how they undertake to carry Bills through Parlia ment. No doubt it would, and so it ought ; for if Parlia mentary agents of any description took upon themselves to give orders for the insertion of advertisements, or incurring other expenses for the Company, they ought to be hell as now legally responsible. The only questions for their con sideration were, did the defendant give the orders to plain tiffs ? It was proved the advertisements had appeared, and were the charges fair and moderate ? The Jury (without leaving the box), returned a verdict for the plaintiffs—Damages, 891. 35., the amount c'aimed. COURT Or• BANKRUPTCY, Ocr. 24. COLVIN, AINSLIE, AND COMPANY ' S BANKRUPTCY. A meeting of the creditors of this banking and agenct firm, whose engagements were extensive, here as well as in India, was held to-day for the further proof of ►'ehts and tin declaration of a dividend upon the joint vni sepzlra . e estates. The debts due here against the firm are estimt ted at about 50,000/., but in India there are also large claims. The dividends already announced on the joint estate amount to 20 per cent., and a further sum of 7 per cent. was ordered to-day to ,be pail to the creditors. Dividends were also declared on the separate estates of the bankrupts. CENTRAL CRINIINAL COURT. NEIV COURT. George Bailey, a respectable looking man, aged 38, was indicted for stealing a pier-glass, sundry mahogany chairs, and other articles, the property of Miss Jane Sickler Tonkin. Miss Tonkin, a good-looking woman, was born in 1802, and is the daughter of a naval officer, who died about ten years ago, when the prisoner was the executor of his will, and became her trustee. Two freehold houses were left to her, the yearly rental of which produced 41/., beyond which she enjoyed part of an annuity during the life of her mother, who demised about two years ago. She had lived with the prisoner eight or nine years in a state of cohabita tion. He is a conveyancer, and was chiefly in Devon shire, but she lived in London with her mother. This in timacy had subsisted about a year before she learned that he was a married man, but she did not break off the connection, as her mother supposed that they were mar ried, the prisoner having imposed upon her a false cer tificate. For the last three or four years she had lived at No. 16, Wellington-terrace, Lambeth, and the furniture of the house was all her own, the prisoner having purchased it out of the proceeds arising• from the sale o her estates. In September, 1836, she had 180/. in her possession, and she and the prisoner went to France together on a journey of pleasure. When there he soon possessed himself of all her money, and then said that most urgent business required his presence in London. He left her in Paris, but never returned or wrote to her. When she arrived last February and went home, she found that the prisoner had clandestinely removed all her furniture. Yesterday Piudence Barton, a young female,, .blind oil one eye, was indicted for stealing a purpose containing some silver belonging to James Wintle, a serious looking elderly man. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, upon which the chairman observed that there was a long catalogue of crime just placed before him relating to the prisoner. The prisoner affected to be surprised, aryl said that she was not aware that she was so bad as people tried to make her (looking at the prosecutor). CHAIRMAN—It appears that you have been twenty-seven times in custody, chiefly on charges of robbing men. Prisoner—Oh, Lord, you don't say so ? The CHAIRMAN said that the sentence of the Cuurt was that she be transported for the term of ten years. The prisoner on hearing the sentence went into a fit, in which state she was carried out of Court by the gaolers. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. A cabman, named Davis, was brought before the LORD MAYOR, upon the singular charge of having, while asleep and drunk, driven through the public streets to the imminent danger of the passengers. The street-keeper, between four and five o'clock in the afternoon, was surprised to see a cab going along King William street at a pretty quick pace, while the driver was fast asleep in the seat, with his whip dangling about the horse's flank. _The animal was no doubt accustomed to the work, as he skilfully avoided the vehicles which were pass ing along on each side ; and, upon inquiring, the witness was informed that the cab had passed through Lombard street without the aid of a director. When the defendant was roused up he was found to be in so abominable a state of drunkenness as not to be able to put.ona-footFbfor6 another. The Loan MAYOR—What can you say in answer to this charge ?—Cabman—Why, you sec, my Lord, I was out of place for so very long time that I was quite overjoyed when I contrived to git- into one. I don't know how it is, please you, my Lord, that I was so sewed up, but I suppose it was because I was so unused to riding of late.—(A laugh.) The LORD 11Iavott—Do you pretend to say that you had no gin ?—Cabman—What could I do, my Lord ? You wouldn't have me go with a dry whip the first day ? I'll be on my oath I only wet one eye. I could see quite clear through the other. The officer said that the cabman could not tell, when he • took him to the station-house of what colour his horse was. Upon being informed that the horse was in the greenyard . he said, " God bless him ! what sort of a horse is it—a grey or a brown ?" and it was some time before he remem- bered anything at all. The Loan MAYOR—You deserve to be severely punished for your conduct. You might have killed or injured several people, if it had not been for the officer. The cabman said there was always a good understanding between him and the horses he drove, and he never had in jured anybody, or been injured, by his peculiar mode of driving. He thought that the kindness which existed be tween him and the " flesh" might be a fair excuse for his taking a nap. The Loan MAYOR—And what have you to say about the drunkenness? Cabman—lf I was drunk I am un commonly mistaken, for I don't recollect it at all ; but my master has given me the sack, so that it's not likely I'll get so again—that's one comfort. The LORD MAYOR—No, I daresay not ; you will now, . _ I suppose, make your arrangements for the workhouse ? Cabman—l a'nt fit for it, my Lord, for I can cat as well as drink. When I can't do either, I'll try to accommodate myself to the run of a workhouse, perhaps. But, after all, I defy any man, except, maybe, an old jarvey, to drive a horse and wehicle fast asleep through the streets of Lon don.—(A laugh.) The Loan MAvoli—Well, as you are so unfortunate as to have lust your situation, I shall discharge you ; but you arc a lucky fellow in not having done mischief in the streets, for, if you had, your punishment would have been most serious. BOW- STREET. Yesterday a respectably-dressed young man was charged befOrc Mr. MiNsituLL with having, about half-past two o'clock on the same morning, struck an aged woman in the face, by which she was deprived of the sight of her right eye ; and, from other injuries received, tier life is considered in great danger. Mr. MINSHULL—What are you ? Defendant—A gen- eman. Mr. MiNsuuLL was about ordering him to make a handsome remuneration to the aged cripple when it was swrgested that, from the alarming appearance of the com plainant, her life was in danger ; he, therefore, ordered her to be conveyed instantly to the hospital, and the prisoner to be remanded till her fate is known. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday Jane Adams, seventy years of age, who bad a severe cut on her head, was brought from the station house, charged by a police-constable of G division, with being drunk. Mr. BENNETT asked her what she had to say for her self? Prisoner (shaking dreadfully)-oh, your Worship, I have got a bad head. Mr. BENNETT—And does putting liquor into your mouth make your head better? Prisoner. 7 .oh, but I've got a bad leg too, Sir. Mr. BENNETT—Then you ought to refrain from liquor. Prisoner—l do, Sir, but a little drop knocks me up. Mr. BENNETT thought it knocked her down too ; it was not a little, drop that could have brought her to the condi tion described by the constable. An elderly pale-faced man standing immediately behind the prisoner said (sympathetically), Lard bless ye zur, the poor wake creatcr can't drink at all ; the liquor gets into her legs and upsets her directly. Prisoner—Yes, Sir, it gets in my legs, and I fall down. Mr. BENNETT—Pray, what arc You? Prisoner—A mar ried woman, and this (puttin her hand on the elderly pale faced personage) is my husband. Husband (sighing)—Ali, zur, lam her husband. Sober creatur I assures you. Mr. BENNETT—What are you ? Husband—A seal en graver. Mr. BENNETT—I shall discharge her on paying a shilling. The prisoner staggered away from the bar and nearly fell down, and hur husband, in attempting to save her, nearly shared the same fate. Mr. BENNETT—Why, she d JCS not seem t) be sober now.
