... - _ELECTION COMMITTEES. (YESTERDAY.) DUBLIN. This Committee resumed its labou rs yesterday, when the question of the non-qualification of Mr. Rey nolds was opened by Mr. Murphy, who, before proceed ing to enter into the merits of the case, or to prove that the sitting Member had no qualification, wished the Committee to decide whether the declaration made at the table of the House was a compliance with the Act of Parliament. Mr. Rowe objected, and the Committee de ci3ed that Mr. Murphy must submit his case as a w hole, and not piecemeal. The q ualification consists of difft rent properties in Ireland, and Mr. Murphy insisted that the sitting Member ought to be called upon to pro duce his title deeds to show that the property really was vested in him. Mr. Rowe refused to comply with this request, which led io a long legal argument that had not terminated when the Committee adjourned. HORSHAM. Mr. P. Medwin, who acted as the agent of Mr. Jervis at the election of 1847, was called to prove that Messrs. Bowlinson and Padwick officiated as the agents of Mr. Fitzgerald. On cross-examination he stated that on the polling-day in 1847, Mr. Jervis' party dragged an empty beer barrel about the streets, with a padlock fastened to it, and the letters " T. B." painted on it. It was intended as a sign to the electors that Mr. Fitzgerald had locked up the table-beer. Mr. Stedman, the Duke of Nor folk's agent, proved that on the polling day an elector, named Charles Feist, called upon him, and stated that lie had received five sovereigns from Mr. Padwick, to Tote for Mr. Fitzgerald. The voter exhibited the money, and the witness made a memorandum at the time of the circumstance. Joseph Cartovie, the waiter at the Richmond Arms, Horsham, proved that, previous to the election of 1847, a numerous 'Betting of the electors was held at that house, to whom wine and other drinks were very liberally given at the expense of Mr. Fitzgerald. A clerk of Mr. Padwick stood at the door of the room the meeting was held in, to see that none but voters entered. The witness's ex amination closed the proceedings of the day. CHELTENHAM. Mr. James Smith, who acted as clerk to Mr. Craven Berkeley's Committee, proved that he was at the Wilt t,hire Brewery, in Cheltenham, on the morning of the election of 1a47, when he observed several persons, who a ppeared to be voters, come there to a breakfast, which corn, fisted of tea and coffee, bread and butter, and beef. Noth,;ng was paid by any of them, but after the repast he tot. k them in flys to the polling-booths. He was en gaged tt, n days, and received 2/. for his trouble. Mr. Co.gsens, clerk to the returning officer in 1847, proved that Messrs. Griffiths, Sheldon, and Boodle acted for Mr. C. Berkeley in respect of the hustings and polling-districts. —The Committee then adjourned. NEWRY,OSTREVORR. WARENPOIN AN T, AND R RAILW. A general meeting of this company was held yesterday at the offices in Moorgate-street, when Mr. Chadwick, the Deputy-Chairman, in the absence of Lord Newry from illness, presided. The advertisement convening the meeting having bean read, a report was submitted of which the substance was, that the events which have occurred on the Con tinent, coupled with more recent causes locally affecting Ireland, have considerably retarded the progress of the wo rks; they have , however, proceeded with as much expedition as the funds at the deposal of the directors admitted. The heavy portion of the work, consisting of the embankment across the Slob Lands adjoining the Newry River, is nearly completed. Th one contrac tor is making preparation for the constructi of the viaducts as sanctioned by the Lords of the Admiralty, and when these shall have been completed little will remain to be done except ballasting and laying' the permanent way, the materials for which are ready. An estimate has been prepared of the probable sum that will be required to complete the works and open the line to Warrenpoint, from which it appears, that in addition to what is likely to be paid on account of calls, the sum authorised to be borrowed will be sufficient. This amounts to 33,000/., of which 3,0001. has been obtained from persons resident near the ine. From the easy gradients of the" line the traffic cannot but be remu nerative. The balance-sheet showed that after the payment of all necessary expenses, there was still a balance of 2,979/. 17s. 4d. in hand. The meeting was unanimous in adopting the report, and thanks having been voted to the Chairman and directors, the shareholders separated. MORTALITY in the METROPOLIS.

It is well known from the experience obtained in 1830 and 1831 that the cholera is in itself generally not contagious, but that it may become so, like some other diseases, if many sick are kept crowded together. " The cholera has been found to be most destructive in villages situated on low and marshy grounds, or near bogs and stagnant pools, and particularly where the in habitants are confined within narrow space, and live me mindful of cleanliness. " It has been further observed that those dejected in spirits and easily alarmed are more subject to cholera than those who live in confidence and are of good courage. " The preceding remarks having been made, the fol lowing are the precautions recommended for observance against cholera : " To beware of catching cold, and particularly to pro tect the stomach from cold, for which purpose to wear a broad belt of cloth or stout flannel upon the skin around the waist ; not to lie upon the bare ground, nor to sleep at night in the open air. After sleep or hard labour, when in perspiration, to drink no water or other beverage cold ; to drink no acid beverage, and never much at a draught ; to beware of all things of intoxi cation; to use light food and moderately; to eat no bread insufficiently baked, no crude vegetables, no un ripe fruits, nor meat or fish not perfectly fresh, and to abstain from salted meats and pickled fish that provoke thirst; to keep the person and the dwelling clean, and to allow of no sinks close to the house, to admit no poultry or animals within the house, and to keep it airy by ven tilation. Where there are sick let not the place be crowded. " Notwithstanding the best precautions, the cholera may at times break out. The following are its symp toms, and the treatment to be pursued with perseverance and confidence : " A person in good health may be suddenly attacked by cholera,' at first sickness the eye-sight dimmed, then, after a shiver and rumbling in the bowels, vomiting and purgihg, with acute pains below the breast, under the ribs, and on the left side, attended by quenchless thirst. If the patient be not quickly succoured, cramps ensue in the legs and arms, which become of icy coldness, extreme weakness comes on, and a deadly paleness, tho whole body becomes cold, then a hiccough, and other signs of ap proaching death. " On the appearance of the first symptoms let medical aid be immediately called- , but if that cannot be obtained, the treat ment necessary is as follows: — "Let the patient be warmly covered. " Let his whole body be well rubbed with warm vinegar or brandy; likewise his hands and feet and pit of the stomach with clear tar, or, if none can be had, with strong brandy. " 3. Let the patient take, in frequent and small quan tities, a warm and li g h t infusion of mint, or of the essence of mint, one or two drops at a time, with sugar. "4. If there be no abatement of pain or vomiting,, a blister of mustard should be applied to the pit of the stomach. 5. If all the same symptoms still continue, al and the patient be of a str on g con s tit ution , then p to the same place , 12 to 20 for a n adult, and for leeches children 6 to 10; but , if of a weak constitution, le t no leeches be used without th e advice of a p hysician. .. 6. A warm bath, if ready and near, may be used with benefit, otherwise a vapour-bath may be prepa re d at home thus :—Heat some stones or bricks, and over them place a bedstead with a netted bottom, upon which let the patient be stretched, well covered ; then throw the vinegar upon the hot stones, whence steam will arise conducive to perspiration, aided by the frictions, which must not bo discontinued. For want of this vapour bath, place around and in contact with the patient bags of heated sand or ashes. " Observations—During the present epidemic no ap pli. cations have been found so efficacious as strong friotioni, either with the naked band, with a cloth, or with a brush , using clear tar or some other irritant. The essence of peppermint may be used more freely than heretofore prescribed. " Great care must be observed during convalescence, for the cholera is often followed by typhus fever."

SUGAR.—To-day there was a decrease in the demand for raw Sugar for all purposes, and as supplies were plentiful a decline in the value of nearly all sorts took place, and merchants were ready sellers. Only a limited demand existed for West India, either for the pan or scale, although the rates taken are 6d per cwt under those of Friday. At auction 216 hhds, 33 tree, and 68 brls Barbadoes, a small part only sold upon rather lower terms; fine yellow went at 41s to 425, good 3956 d to 40s 6d, mid 38s to 395, and low 37s Gd to 38s; 458 hhds, 87 tree, and 299 brls Trinidad were taken in at the full value; good strong grey at 38s to 38s Gd, mid 37s to 37e Gd, ord 36s to 36s 6d, brown low and mid 35s to 35s 6d per cwt. The total quantity sold to-day is of West India 520 hhds and trcs. REFINED.—To-dsy the state of the market for home trade Refined Sugar was unsatisfactory, and sellers of fered standard lumps at 535, and brown grocery at 52s per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is still wanted by ex porters at 26s 6d to 27s 6d per cwt. MAURITIUS. —This afternoon the public sales of 14 casks and 1 ,933 bags of Mauritius Sugar went off flatly, and upon rather lower terms, fine yellow sold at 393 to 39 s 6 d, good 38s to 38s 6d, middling 37s 6d, low 35s 6d to 365, good and fine brown 34s to 355, middling grey 36s 6d, washed and syrupy 34s sa. to 38s 6d per cwt. Some lots were taken in. IXDl.4.—Thia sitaragou Maciziti fittra got 1,059 with little attention, and 2,336 bags at auction were nearly all taken in at about the former value ; mid damp brown 30s, good 30s 6d to 31s, fine 325, low and mid yellow 32s Gd to 33s 6d, good 345, a few lots sold at 33s to 39s for good grocery yellow, and at 3fis 6d for mid. Of Penang 538 bags found buyers, but at a fall on last week's rates of 6d to Is ; good greyish yellow went at 35s to 35s 6d, mid 33s to 34s 6d, low 325, ord brown 28s, and good 31s. 1,680 bags of Bengal only part sold ; white at the rates of Friday, but yellow and brown went 6d cheaper, fine white Benares at 43s to 445, good 41s 6d to 42s 6d, mid and good mid 39s 6d to 41s, low 38s 6d to 395, fine soft yellow 37s 6d to 38s, mid 33s 6d to 343 Gd, low 31s to 335, good brown 30s 6d, ord 28s to 295. FOREIGN.—To-day there was no public sale of Fo reign Sugar, and privately few inquiries existed for home use or exportation, prices are also looking down. Two cargoes of fine yellow Havannah at 20s to 20s 6d, and one of white at 28s per cwt all for the latter purposes. MOLASSES.—Of West India, the deliveries are upon a large scale, and still exceed arrivals. Purchases to a fair extent have been made ; fine at 19s to 20s, and low to good 16s to 18s 6d. Of all sorts there is a falling off in arrivals compared with this time last year of nearly 9,000 puns, &c.; but deliveries are smaller by 1,800, and there is a falling off in the stock of 1,300 puns, &c. COFFEE.—This afternoon three parcels of Ceylon amounting to 96 casks and 2,758 bags were offered at public sale, but a small part only sold at rather lower rates. Plantation, good, went at 61s to 645, good mid dling 54s to 58s, middling 48s to 525, low middling 42s to 465, fine fine ordinary 36s 6d to 40s 6d, fine 32s to 365, low and good ordinary 25s 6d to 30s, pea berry 60s to 645, native good ordinary 29s to 29s 6d, and da maged 24s to 275. Of Jamaica 62 trcs and 28 bags were sold at lower prices, middling went at 52s to 555, low middling 45s to 465, fine fine ordinary 38s to 425, fine ordinary 34s 6cl to 35s 6d, good ordinary 30s to 325, ordinary 29s to 30s, and triage 22s to 275 6d per cwt. TEA.—For Green, the position of the market has been satisfactory since Tuesday last, the demand limited, and we have to announce a decline in the prices —Gunpowder of lid to 2d, Imperial ld per lb, Hyson id to .id; whilst for other sorts the rates accepted are rather under those previously current Black Tea was purchased with less freedom, and prices have assumed a downward tendency—sound clean com mon Congou can be obtained at 7kd to 8d per lb. Of Pekoe and Scented Teas a larger quantity is on offer, and sellers appear disposed to make slight concession in the value, yet the sales made have been of little moment. At the public auctions, which consisted of 21,000 pkgs, only 4,400 pkgs actually found buyers. To-day little desire was shown to do business in Tea, and for common sound Congou 7id per lb was accepted. SPICES.—To •clay, at public sale, 16 barrels Jamaica Ginger were taken in at 55s to 57s for good ordinary, but 551 bags Pepper all sold at 2id to lid for half heavy brown Malabar, and 21d for clean brown Sumatra, which is the full value. Ssco.—To- day at public sale 500 boxes of Pearl were only in part sold at about the former value, good small white Pearl went at 19s to 19s 6d, damaged 8s 6d to 12s 6d, fine sound was taken in at 225. Sixty casks Farina at 16s 6d per cwt. RICE. —To. day there was a considerable increase in the supply of East India Rice, and as the demand for all purposes was less active, holders experienced difficulty in obtaining the rat es p rev i ous ly curren t ; indeed for middling and the lower sorts they were compelled in some cases to accept rather less money. Of the parcels offered at public sale not above half sold. COCIIINEAL—This afternoon a better demand existed, and at public sale 100 bags were mostly sold at fall rates to ld advance. Honduras, low to good silvers realised 3s 9d to 4s ld; Teneriffe, middling and good black 3s 9d to 4s, and Mexican silvers, good 3s 8d to 3s 9d per lb. SPlRlTS.—Jamaica Rum has been less in request for home trade purposes, and the export orders concluded since our last report have been of little consequence. On the part of merchants there is less firmness, and rather lower rates have been accepted for all sorts, whilst there is a plentiful supply. Only 250 puns have been sold since this day week. Demerara is not much wanted, and former rates cannot be obtained ; only 100 puns have been sold at 2s 8d to 2s 9d for 33 to 35 per cent over proof, and 28 to 32 over 2s 4d to 2s 9d. In Leward Island only small purchases have been made. East India is not much wanted., and is sid to is bid is the nearest value of proof with certificate. Havannah is held Is 5d to Is Sid, few buyers are, however, to be met with. For Brandy there is an increased demand, and prices are on the advance, whilst deliveries are of a more sa tisfactory nature. Holders display firmness, and ob tain 4s 9d to 4s lld for Cognac best brands of the vintage of 1846, and 1847 3s 10d to 4s per gallon. Of Geneva several parcels have been taken for exportation at is lld to 2s; there is a fair demand for fine fit for home consumption at 2s 6d to 3s 6d. There is much firmness in the market for British made Spirits, and prices are fully as high, with an extensive demand and large consumption. To-day few purchases were made in Rum, and holders were disposed to accept is lid to Is 8d per gallon for Leeward Island of plain quality. TALLow.—Prices have not improved for Russian, although there has been a good demand from both soap-makers and chandlers. On the part of merchants there appears to be a desire to sell fine new P.Y.C. Candle at 44s to 44s 3d, and old at 43s Gd to 43s 9d per cwt. For delivery in the last three months of the year contracts have been concluded at 43s 3d to 43s 6d, but at which there are ready sellers. Home made has been largely dealt in at 43s 6d to 44s 6d nett cash; there is still a plentiful sup ply. For other sorts prices have ruled firm, and the purchases made are upon an enlarged scale. At auction 460 casks of New South Wales were sold. Rough Fat is 2s 6d per stone. OILS.—The public sales declared for Friday comprise 40 tuns of Sperm, 75 of Southern, 20 of Seal, and 40 tuns of Cocoa Nut. Arrivals have been larger than in the former week, still the market for common Fish Oils is looking better, whilst deliveries are on the increase. For Seal the demand has been brisk, and a further ad vance in the value is apparent. Southern met with a good demand by private treaty, and former rates are well kept up, the supply is also less plentiful. At auction 20 tuns were sold. Cod is rather cheaper. Importers cf Sperm continue anxious sellers, and sub mitted to further reduced rates ; buyers are cau tious in their mode of doing business. For Cocoa Nut there is not much demand, and prices are on the decline, as the supply is more abundant. At auction 36 casks of Ceylon were sold at 39s to 40s per cwt for good. Linseed Oil cannot be quoted higher. Rapeseed Oil is much in request, pale at 35s 6d to 365, and brown 34s 6d to 355. Olive has been largely dealt in, and prices are still on the advance. A GENTLEMAN CADET DROWNED.—About five on Saturday evening, two gentlemen cadets, Mr. C. F. Birch and Mr. IL Heberden, belonging to the practical class studying in the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, went down to the bathing-place of the canal in the Royal Arsenal to bathe. This was contrary to the regulations, as the ca dets bathe altogether at four o'clock, under proper con trol, and bathing at other times is forbidden. Mr. Birch had not been in the water long before he sank. His companion, Mr. Heberden, was so paralysed that he had not presence of mind to give an alarm; but a police constable, who was returning from the lock-gates of the canal, perceived his agitated appearance, and ascertained from him the disappearance of his friend. The drags, which aro kept at a considerable distance from the spot, were procured as speedily as possible, but three-quarters of an hour elapsed before the recovery of the body, and all attempts to restore animation were unsuccessful. The deceased was only 17 years of age, and had joined the practical class only on Tuesday last. His attention to his studies had been remarkable, for he only joined the academy about twelve months since, and would, but for this melancholy accident, have received his commis sion in a very few months. SERMON BY A COLOURED CLERGYMAN.—Yester day the Rev. A. Crumell, who is one of the four episco pally ordained African clergymen in the United States, by permission of the Bishop of the diocese, preached to a numerous congregation in St. George's, Everton. Mr. Crumell has visited England for the purpose of soliciting contributions towards the erection of an Episcopal church in New York for the negro population of that city, which amounts to between 20,000 and 30,000. He has found it impossible, in consequence of the unfortu• nate position of the coloured people in America, to ob tain sufficient funds for his undertaking in that country. He is a surprising instance of what an African can become by religious and literary cultivation, and his eloquent discourse produced a powerful effect upon his hearers. No collection was made, but we understand that the Rev. Mr. Ewbank will receive contributions in aid of the object which the Rev. Gentleman has in view. —Liverpool Albion. PROTECTION OF LIFE AND PROPERTY FROM FIRE —Yesterday forenooa the Secretary of State (Sir G Grey), accompanied by Lady Grey, the Speaker of the House of Commons, and a number of the aristocracy, assembled in the now ground of the London Gas Com pany, at Vauxhall, for the purpose of witnessing expe riments made with Phillips's Fire Annihilator, and seve ral new and valuable improvements in the fire-escape effected by the inventor, Mr. A. Wivell. The fire-escape was tested by Mr. Wivell, in a manner perfectly new. At an elevation of thirty-three feet, a fireman ascended by a main ladder as. it stood, unsupported by a wall, having the branch pipe and hose suspended by a belt round him. On reaching the topmost spoke he held it by one hand, and having secured the hook of his hose to the ladder, the fire engine was worked, while the man aloft directed the water in any direction required. The branch pipe was then suspended to the top spoke, and the conductors of the machine used it in the manner of turning a crane, right and left, high and low, so as to direct tho course of the water to any given poier. By this means a great advantage was apparent over the old system of disposing of water without such an eleva tion. The escape ladder was subsequently elevated ten feet, and at the highest point the hose was again ad justed, and worked in like manner. Sir George Grey, and the other visitors, were pleased to express their gra tification at the complete sueeess of these experiments. DEATH OF AN OMNIBUS -DRIVER ON THE BOX.— OE Sunday evening last, as George Norman, formerly a crack coachman on the Brighton road, but who since the four-in-hands have been thrown into the shade had turned his attention to omnibus-driving, was proceeding with his omnibus, which runs between the Elephant and Castle and Lisson-grove, he was observed, when the omnibus was passing through Baker -street, to fall back wards, and on assistance being procured life was found to be extinct. Fortunately, Mr. Lane, ono of the pro prietors of the omnibus, was a passenger on the occasion, and remarking when passing through Regent-circus that Norman seemed ill, had taken his seat beside him upon the box, otherwise the suddenness of the event might have been attended with serious consequences to the passengers. R.N., F.R.S., had interviews at the Bo C ar a a t ß o a f d i EI T D D r i Trade and amnsd respecting Admiralty o yesterdayreeent with steam-vessel his Re ports aceideuts iu the 'doh Sea fa d Gulf of Fiulaud. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OP LORDS, August B. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY took his seat on the Woolsack at Five o'clock. THE CONSTABULARY FORCE (IRELAND) BILL. This Bill passed through Committee. PABLIANIENTARY ELECTIONS BILL. On the motion of Lord BEAUMONT, this Bill went through Committee, and was ordered to be read a third time on Thursday. SUNDAY TRADING. Lord WHARNCLIFFE presented petitions from St. Luke's, Middlesex, and several other parishes in the metropolis, against trading on Sunday. PUBLIC HEALTH BILL. Lord CAMPBELL moved the consideration of the Lords' amendments of the Public Health Bill; and after stating the amendments made by the Commons to their Lordships' amendments, the Noble Lord said that it was for their Lordships to choose whether they would waive their amendments or throw out this Bill. There was no alternative : it was hopeless to insist on their Lord ships' amendments. He trusted that their Lordships would show an example of moderation and forbearance; and, for the sake of the safety of the Bill, that they would agree to what the Commons had proposed, and would be satisfied with the amendments which they had given, waiving those which they had rejected. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH said that after what had taken place in this House, their Lordships had a right to expect that their amendments would have re ceived the support of a united Government in the other House. He supported the propriety of the amendments, which, he said, had been adopted with the best inten tions. He objected to the amendments of the Commons, as they might lead to jobbing in the local boards. He deeply regretted what had passed as to this Bill, but at the same time he would not, on his part, even if he had the hope of inducing their Lordships to agree with him in rejecting any of these amendments give the House of Commons an excuse for rejecting this Bill. The Bill was not what it ought to be ; it was not what he trusted it would be, but it was still a great public good, and they should not have, through him, the excuse of depriving the public of it. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE, who was indis tinctly heard, agreed that it was necessary to waive their Lordships' amendments, at the same time regretting that the Commons had not acceded to them. He and his Noble and Learned Friend had entertained a strong hope that the House of Commons would have waived, as re garded this Bill, that portion of their privileges which, although sacred in many eonstitutions.l respects, were impediments in matters of this kind. Lord REDESDALE thought that great ground of complaint rested on her Majesty's Government in striking out what was called the " smoke clause." This clause had received the unanimous support of the Com mittee of that House. The excuse for striking out the clause was groundless. It was alleged that this was a matter for general legislation, and should not have been introduced in it as a distinct clause. Now clauses for such a purpose had been intro duced into Liverpool, Derby, and other large towns improvement Bills. The suppression of smoke would bo of material benefit to the poorer classes. For in stance, weavers in some towns were obliged to shut up their houses, so as to prevent the entrance of smut, which would spoil the fabrics they were manufacturing. He trusted that her Majesty's Government would consent to the re-insertion of the clause, as the ground for its rejection by the Commons was directly the re verse of the fact. He did not believe that there would be the slightest risk to this measure if their Lordships sent this clause back to the House of Commons. If the Commons should again reject it, he certainly would not press it, so as to endanger the success of this Bill. Lord PORTMAN regretted, as much as his Noble Friend, that these clauses had been rejected by the Commons. lie thought, however, that it would be un wise to risk such a Bill, by pressing this clause at such a late period of the session. Ile trusted that at an. early .period of the next session a Bill would be intro duced to remedy this evil, and which he hoped would prove successful. The Duke of ARGYLL entirely concurred in the feelings of regret which had been expressed, that the Commons had rejected the amendments introduced by their Lordships. Lord CAMPBELL, in reply, said that he could as sure the House that the Government had used every exertion to carry these amendments, but they had been unsuccessful, kin consequence of the irregular combination of parties against them. It was not until the Government saw that there was no chance of suc cess that they were' induced to abandon all hope of car rying these amendments. tie trusted, however, that they would be carried into effect at some future period. He was glad to find the unanimity which prevailed as to the course to be pursued by their Lordships; and he trusted that the Noble Lord (Lord Redesdale) would not per sist in his preposal; but take the judicious advice of the Noble Earl (Lord'Ellenborough). This Bill was not so perfect or beneficial as it might be, still it contained many beneficial enactments. The Earl of DESART expressed a hope that some arrangement would take place so as to put the privi leges of both Houses on a better footing than they now were, as many of them were at present productive of great inconvenience. The Commons' amendments were then agreed to. UNLAWFUL OATHS ACTS (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion of the LORD CHANCELLOR, that this Bill be read a third time, The Earl of RODEN said that he rose to suggest an amendment, in the second clause, after the words " it shall be lawful to seize all papers and writings, and all arms," that the words " and ull communication of every description whatever." The amendment was agreed to, and the Bill was read a third time and passed. Their Lordships then adjourned, at a Quarter past Seven o'clock, till Thursday. HOUSE OF COMMONS, August 15. RENEWABLE (IRELAND) LEASEHOLD CONVERSION BILL. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) Mr. LAW trusted the House would not trifle with the charter by which the Iri s h S oc i ety was esta bli s h ed, and deprive the society of the only character by which it could do any good, namely, that of landlord in Ire land. The Hon. and Learned Member, not perse vering in his amendment, the House resolved itself into Committee on the Bill. The preamble was postponed. Clauses 1 up to 3 were agreed to after a short dis cussion and with a few verbal amendments. The CHAIRMAN then reported progress and ob tained leave to sit again on Thursday, at twelve o'clock. CONTROVERTED ELECTIONS BILL. The second reading of this Bill was postponed until Thursday, at twelve oclock. LOCAL ACTS BILL. This Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be referred to the Select Committee on Private Bills. COMMONS INCLOSURE BILL.

The report upon this Bill was brought up, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. DUBLIN POLICE BILL. The Committee upon this Bill was postponed until Thursday, at twelve o'clock. The House adjourned at a Quarter after Three o'clock until Five. The House resumed at Five o'clock. An HoN. MEMBER moved that the House b© counted, Strangers were accordingly or d ere d t o w ithd raw , a nd there being only thirty: Members present, the SPEAKER adjourned the House till to-morrow at Twelve o'clock. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME ClRCUlT.—Guildford, August 15. CIVIL SIDE.--(Before the LORD CHIEF BARON, and a Common Jury.) _ COX 11. HOW. This action was brought - by Elizabeth Cox against George How, to recover compensation in damages from him, in consequence of the loss of the services of her daughter, by reason of his having seduc©d her. Sergeant Shee and Mr. Charnock were for the plaintiff; and Mr. M. Chambers and Mr. Bagley for the defendant. _ _ . . . . Sergeant SHEE said that the plaintiff in this action was the widow of a draper who formerly carried on bu siness at Newport PagneL, in Buckinghamshire, and who died in 1837, leaving his widow and a daughtor, Mary Anne, the subject of the present inquiry, in straitened circumstances. Her daughter carried on the business of a dressmaker, and by her exertions she contributed materially to the support of he r mothe r , and by their united efforts they were enabled to maintain a position of respectability, and, as he was instructed, the family were respected and e steemed by their neighbours and all who w ere acquainted with them. It was while they were in this position that the daughter of the plaintiff, in the year 1846, became acquainted, or rather renewed an acquaintance, with the defendant. She had, it appeared, met him some few years before at a country ball, when he paid her some attention, and accompanied her to her mother's house, but no further intimacy took place at that time, and the parties lost sight of each other until August, 1846, when the defendant, as he had stated, met accidentally with the plaintiff's daughter in the town of Newport Pagn el. He dismounted, expressed his delight at seeing her, and stated that ho had frequently thought of her, and re quested that he might be allowed to renew the acquaint ance, and to visit her at her mother's house. The young woma n did n ot consent to allow him to visit her as he requested, and he believed that the mother had never encouraged the connexion between the parties. The defendant w as a bout the same age as the p laintiff's daughter; ho was, at that time, engaged as a cattle. dealer, and he also managed a large far m for his mo ther; but although the connexion might, perhaps, have been considered an eligible one, it would seem that the plaintiff did not approve of it, and he should show that the defendant, in point of fact, never did visit at the mother's house, and that she discouraged his at tentions. The defendant, however, did prevail on the his o mon plaintiff's daughter, by the a ssurance of honourable intentions, to meet him and to walkout with him, and she continued to do so du l r B i 4 n s, a the periodof g four woman w th a s s , a w n a d s , unfortunately, thstinl ebruar3, upon. one occasion, an improper in timacy commenced between them, t he result of which delivered of a child. He would not weary—indeed he would not disgust them by detailing the conduct of the defendant after this period. He would rather they should hear from the girl herself the history of her fall, and the hea r tl essnes s and cruelty of the conduct of the defendant, when he had obtained his object. The conse quences were most disastrous to the poor girl h erse lf ; she was ill for a c onsiderable period, and those who had treated her before with liiaduess ceased to do so, in . sequence of her misfortune; and when ho had proved these facts, and the jury took into consideration the heartless conduct of the defendant, he was convinced they would feel that it was a case in which the plaintiff was entitled to toopillerable damages. Mary Anne Cox, a rather pretty young woman, was then examined. She deposed as follows :—I am the daughter of the plaintiff. I know the defendant George How. lle lives at Milton, near Newport Pagael, in which town I reside with my mother. I first met the defendant At a ball at the Saracen's Head, Newport Pag nel, and I danced with him. This was seven or eight years ago, and I did not see him again until the begin ning of September, 1846. I was going upon an errand in the evening, and met the defendant in the street. I am now 27 years old, and the defendant is about 30. When I saw him on this occasion he got off his horse, and came to me, and said he was happy to see me as he had not seen me so long, and he wished me to meet him on the following evening, but I rather refused him, and we parted. He came by my mother's house in the following evening, and I went out to speak to him. I did not tell my mother. I made an appoint went to meet the defendant at the house of a Mrs. Paybody, in the town, on the following Wednesday evening, and I and the defendant went out for a walk together. The defendant professed love for me on several occasions, and I met him once or twice a week in the evening, and we used to walk out together, and for some time he behaved " very gentlemanly." I did not tell my mother of these meetings, but she knew of them from other people. The defendant seduced me in March, 1847. Ile said he would make me his wife. From this time an intimacy continued until about six weeks before I was confined. I first discovered that I was in the family way in the beginning of May, and when I informed the defendant of it he said he would have me for a wife and would make me comfortable. A short time before I was confined I was talking to the de• fendant about my condition, and he asked me if I could not " take something," to which I replied, " George, you surely don't wish me to kill your child?" The defendant made no other reply than that his pony was waiting and he must be going, and he rode away. I was confined with a girl on the 16th of February, 1848, and the child is still alive. The defendant has never contributed one farthing to the support of the child. At the time in question I was living with my mother, and used to per form the domestic work in the house. Cross-examined—l am a dress-maker. I swore the child to How before the magistrates, but they refused to make an order upon him. When I was examined upon that occasion I swore that Mrs. Paybody had heard the defendant make an offer of marriage, but when she was examined she contradicted my statement. I frequently went with the defendant so late as nine o'clock at night, between August and February, and sometimes it was very dark when we were out. We ge nerally used to walk a little way upfthe London-road. My mother knew of these walks, and she used to talk to me about the impropriety of doing so. I swear that I never had a lover before. I know a Mr. Deacon. He used to lodge with us many years ago, but since the . time of the ball. I never let him in at night in my night dress. He used to be brought home late at night occa sionally from the public-house by the landlord, and sometimes the landlord's wife used to bring him home. —(A laugh.) I will swear that I never let him in at night in my night-dress. I know John Odell—he 'is a farmer's son. I went with him once to Northampton fair, and I was out one night ; but I stayed at the house of an uncle, and (my mother was aware of it. I know William Nicholl—he is a farmer and dealer; he never promised me marriage, nor did I ever pull a piece of paper out of my pocket and ask him to sign it. I never met him, or walked with him, or permitted him to take liberties with me. I know Edward Allright; he is a pig -dealer, and lives near us. I never said that " Ned must be a fool to kiss and tell;" or that he had been bragging about me. I know Joseph Haynes, but I never walked with him either by day or night. I never walked out with a man named Wykes. My mother came one night to Mrs. Pay body's house to fetch ma home, and she went away first and I remained behind. I know Poole's-lane, but I will swear I was never there at three o'clock in the morning, and that William Field ing did not pass me in the lane at that time. I was never out from home so late as three in the morning, and I never went to Mrs. Paybody's and said that my mother had locked me out. One evening I did stop at Mrs. Paybody's rather late, and when I got home it was be tween eleven and twelve o'clock, and my mother, not expecting me, had gone to bed and I could not awake her, and I was obliged to go and sleep at a friend's house, and the next morning I told Mrs. Paybody what had occurred. This was the same night that my mother had been to fetch me from Mrs. Paybody's. The CHIEF BARON—Who is this Mrs. Paybody? Wit ness—She is the wife of a blacksmith in the town. Cross-examination continued—l asked the defendant to put it in writing, that he intended to marry me; but he said he had not got any paper in his pocket, and his word would do just as well. I asked him three or four times to put it in writing, but he refused. I am quite sure that I am not more than twenty-seven years old, and Pnever walked with any young man before. The first time I met the defendant, in 1846, we walked about the town. We did not go into a corn-field. Almost every market day I used to go to Mrs. Paybody's to meet the defendant. He was obliged to pass the door in his way home from market, and he used to put up his horse and come to see me. Mr. CHAMBERS—I - Tow long, pray, did this sort of in timacy continue? Witness—Five or six months. Mr. Joyce, a silversmith in Newport Pagnel, deposed that he had known the plaintiff and her daughter for twenty years, awl they always bore a respectable cha racter, and he never heard any imputations against the daughter. One or two other witnesses were then examined, who also deposed to the respectability of the plaintiff, and this closed the case on her behalf. Mr. CHAMBERS then addressed the jury, and he ob served that he should be exceedingly sorry to say one word to add to the distress of the plaintiff ; but he was afraid that in the result it would be clearly made out that she had very much to regret in the conduct of her child. lie then alluded to the form of the action, and said it was one of such a character that a counsel hardly knew how to deal with it ; and it was, in his opinion, much to be regretted that as time had gone on, and the inconvenience of the present state of the law had be come so manifest, the Legislature had not put the matter upon a proper footing, and established a form of action by which the party who was really aggrieved might make a claim for damages. At present the law was almost unintelligible. In the first place, no action of this kind could be sustained at all, unless it was made out that the parties stood in the relative position of master and servant, and when this was done, feelings and affections were allowed to enter into the matter. The jury, however, were now called upo❑ to say what damage the plaintiff had sustained ; and, when all the circumstances were considered, he apprehended they wculd have very little difficulty in coming to a conclusion that it was of the most trifling description. The young woman, who had been called, had positively stated that she had never had any other lover than the defendant. In the first place he should submit that this was very unlikely, but he should positively show them that this unhappy girl— The CHIEF BARON here interposed, and inquired whe ther the Learned Counsel intended to show that the young woman did not stand in the position of servant? Mr. CHAMBERS said he could not do that. The CHIEF BARON—Then any evidence with regard to her conduct will be immaterial in the present action. I do not see how you can escape from a verdict for the present plaintiff. Mr. CHAMBERS said he must admit that this difficulty had struck him. The plaintiff, probably, must have a verdict upon the question of loss of services and ex. penses. The CHIEF BARON was of the same opinion; and, therefore, it would be quite unnecessary to occupy the public time, and unnecessarily wound the feelings of the parties without any object. He added, be was sure that Mr. Chambers would be the last man who would wish to do so. Mr. CHAMBERS proceeded—He quite concurred in the observations of his Lordship, and he should, therefore, merely address himself to the facts of the case as they already appeared in. evidence. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to state that it appeared plain that the young woman bad thrown herself in the way of the de fendant, and her conduct led to a very strong inference that he was not the only man with whom she had been intimate. The circumstances showed that she was a young woman of easy . access. She saw a young man at a ball, and then meeting him several years afterwards at night the intimacy was renewed, and she at once con sented to meet him, and walked with him night after night, without the knowledge of her mother, and until this unfortunate event happened. Her conduct put him in mind of a verse from an old poet— " Whene'er ye meet a fool that's fou, That ye're a maiden, gar him trow, Seeni nice—but stick to him like glue." —(Laughter,) And she did stick to him like glue.— (Laughter.) He could not go anywhere but the glue was sticking to him.—(A laugh.) Whenever he came to market she was watching for him, and it was very evident that she had brought the disgrace upon herself by her own misconduct and want of caution. Under such circumstances he was sure the jury would not en courage such an action, for if they did there was hardly a village or a town in the country where young girls chose to walk out, either with farmers or labourers, in a moonlight night, that would not furnish plenty of similar actions at every assizes. If the young woman had been so modest and virtuous as she pretended to be, was it likely that she would so soon have yielded to the persuasions of the defe n d ant , or having done so, that she would have consented to be a party to the sort of in timacy which she admitted to have taken place between them afterwards? He submitted that there could be no doubt as to her conduct, and that it was quite plain she was as willing as the defendant to consent to what had taken place. It was a misfortune, no doubt, for a mother to have a loose daughter; but the ques tion here was, what damages ought to be given, and although he did not deny that the de fendant had been guilty of a high moral offence, yet, if the jury believed that the young woman was equally guilty in the transaction, they would be injuring the cause of morality if they were to give any more than nominal damages in such a case, as it would hold out an inducement to other parties similarly situated to act in the same manner. In conclusion, he admitted that the plaintiff must have a verdict, but he called upon the jury to give her no greater amount of damages than would pay for the medical attendance and tho actual ex penses she had incurred. The CHIEF BARON in summing up said, that he con curred in many of the observations of the Learned Counsel with regard to the nature of actions of this de scription, and he said that if he had to write a panegyric upon the law this was certainly not the particular part of it which he should choose as the theme for praise. No doubt the origin of the law was to give a master a remedy when he sustained an injury by his servant being enticed away from biw, or if any one wounded a man's servant he might bring an action for the loss of his services. The present form of action had no doubt arisen out of that state of things, and the law held that damages might be given commensurate with the injury that had been indicted upon the feelings of the party. The Learned Judge then alluded to the circumstances of the case, and said that it did not appear to be anything like a case of deliberate seduction. No hospitality had been violated, and it appeared to be merely an exhibition of profligate morals on both sides. It appeared to him, that under those circumstances, although the mother was certainly entitled to a verdict in strictness of law, yet that she ought not to recover more damages than would reimburse her for the expense she had actually been put to; and as to the loss of ser vices, that must have been very trifling indeed, and would not amount to more than a few shillings. The Learned Judge concluded by stating that it was the duty of the jury to look at all the circumstances of the case, and having done so, to say by their verdict what amount of injury they considered the plaintiff had sustained. The jury, after a very short deliberation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages 20/. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Gloucester, Aug. 14. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mi. Baron PLATT.) Thomas Hooper, 48, was indicted for shooting at Mary Little. The prisoner, it appeared, was much annoyed on the day in question by boys and others making a disturbance near his house, and at night they burnt an effigy of him, in consequence of some slanderous report that bad been raised in the neighbourhood implicating him. He was very much irritated, and about nine o'clock came out of his houso with a gun in his hand, which he discharged at the crowd. It was loaded with shot, some grains of which struck and wounded the prosecutrix, a girl about fifteen years of age; some shots were extracted from her face. The prisoner was convicted of a common assault, and sentenced to one week's imprisonment. At Nisi Prius no cause has been tried justifying a notice. NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Lancaster, Aug. 14. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL.) Thomas Skinner, a sailor, was indicted for stabbing James Garrard, on the 29th July. The prosecutor said that he kept an inn at Glasson dock, near this place, and on the night of the above day a number of men were in his house, and there was a quarrel between the prisoner and another, which ended in a fight. When it was over witness entered the room, the prisoner then sitting o❑ the sofa, rose up, and gave him a severe blow, on which they , had a scuffle, and on getting up he found he was wounded. They had had no quarrel. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of a common as sault. _ _ The prosecutor recommended him to mercy, on which The JUDIE said he must consider.—Sentence de ferred. Richard Catterall was indicted for manslaughter in killing James Duckworth, at Preston, on the 25th of April last. Thomas Ellis said be lived at Preston, and on the 25th of April the prisoner, the deceased, and others 'were at his house. Duckworth wanted to fight one Townley, and the prisoner offered to fight him instead of Townley. The deceased at first refused, but afterwards said he would not mind two or three rounds of a fair stand-up fight, and they set to. After an ineffectual attempt to striko the deceased a blow, the prisoner seized him by the thigh, raised up his foot, and ran him on one foot down a declining ground, and threw him against the corner of a wall, the prisoner falling upon him. On being raised, deceased said he was much hurt. He said to a witness, " Oh, Thomas, I am killed; I shall not live three hours," and he died, in fact, in a few hours. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and, after a se rious admonition to the prisoner, and some remarks on the extenuating circumstances of the case, His LORDSHIP sentenced him to be imprisoned, .with hard labour, for one calendar month. NORTH WALES ClRCUlT.—Chester, Aug. 14. The business of Assize ror the county of Chester com menced this day at Chester, Mr. Justice %Vightman pre siding in the Crown Court, and the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas in the Nisi Prius Court. Thomas Hall, aged 45, was indicted for shooting at Charles Stubbs, at Minshuil Vernon. It appeared from the evidence that the prosecutor went to the house of the prisoner during the night time, with the intention of courting one of his female servants, and being ordered away, refused to go, when the pri soner fired a pistol at him, loaded with dust shot, wound ing him slightly in the arm. The jury acquitted him of the felony, but found him guilty of a common assault. His LORDSHIP, in passing sentence, said it ought to be generally known that nothing but the most pressing necessity for personal safety would justify the use of fire-arms. He then sentenced the prisoner to be im prisoned for a fortnight. Joseph Deane pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with stealing two letters. containing half a sove reign each, from the Post office at Winslow, and was sentenced to be transported for seven years. The prisoner was a young man, and a letter-carrier. Thomas Jones, a letter-carrier, in the employment of the Postmaster at Birkenhead, was indicted for stealing a half-sovereign from a letter belonging to Mr. Ramsey, Inspector-General of the Post-office. The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced to seven years' transportation. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Lord Chief Justice WILDE.) There were fifteen causes entered for trial, only one of which is to be tried by a special jury. His Lordship disposed of five cases, none of which possessed any public interest. WESTERN ClRCUlT.—Devizes, August 14. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice CoemuncE.) EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—Jonah Blanchard was in dicted for poisoning 198 sheep, the property of Mr. Pinkney, at Berwick St. James's. Mr. Cockburn and Mr. Slade were counsel for the pro.. secution; Mr. Edwards defended the prisoner. The charge against the prisoner was that of having maliciously destroyed, by means of poison, nearly 200 sheep belonging to the prosecutor, who farmed an estate of about 1,600 acres. He and a Mr. Tabor were the only holders of land in the parish, and the labourers had only those two gentlemen from whom they could obtain work in that parish. Upon the evening of the 24th January last the prosecutor had 650 sheep in two yards. He had had them brought into the yards in December, and on that evening the shepherds left the sheep in the yards all in good health. The next morning, upon coming to the yards, the shepherds found that in one yard th sheep were as they had been left the preceding evening, while in the other yard the sheep were all affected with some inexplicable disease; three were dead, and a vast number more were groaning and showing symptoms of the greatest possible distress and agony; and the sheep continued to die for a period of 14 days; and in the whole 198 died. It seemed quite clear that this was not the result of any ordinary disease, for not only the shepherds had not seen any such disease before, but a veterinary surgeon declared that it was not any known form of disease; a medical practitioner also saw them, and he had no doubt the sheep died from poison. The prosecutor sent the carcase of one o f the she ep to Mr. Herepath, the eminent chemist of Bristol, and he had no difficulty in deteetin ,, poison, which was sulphate of copper, or blue vitriol. He discovered the poison not only in the intestines, but also in various other parts of the carcase, so that it had spread itself through ou t th e ) m there could be no doubt that by some com pso'sutned' an ofc d Opper the sheep were killed. The sheep from the other fold were put among those that were dying, but they took no harm. The question then came, whe ther the guilt of having administered the poison could be brought home to the prisoner ? The facts by which it was sought to convict the prisoner were these : Behind the sheds and farm-buildings ran the street of the village, and the prisoner's house was contiguous to the yard, with a means of entrance from the street into the yard. So far back as 1840, the pro secutor had refused to give the prisoner work, and he had then used threats of personal violence and re venge towards the prosecutor, which induced that gentle man to take him before a magistrate, and he was bound over to keep the peace. Some time after that the pro secutor interceded with Mr. Tabor to give the prisoner work, and he employed him till 1845, when he dis charged him; and from that time until 1847 the prisoner only got work from time to time precariously, and he was obliged to go into the union workhouse. About that period he met a person of the name of Hibbert, who was under-bailiff to the prosecutor, and he asked Hibbert whether he thought the prosecutor would give him work? Hibbert said he did not think he would ; upon which the prisoner used very strong language with regard to the prosecutor, threatening to shoot him and to destroy his sheep ; he said he would kill Mr. Pinkney if he did not employ him ; and when the sheep came home he would seek his revenge and poison his master's sheep; he had got that within his house that would do it, and he would bo if be did not. Ilibbert said, " Certainly, you won't do that." The pri soner replied, "If I live and you live you will see ; and there will be mutton enough for many." A few days after this Hibbert communicated to Mr. Pinkney what the prisoner bad said, and Mr. Pinkney had him taken before a magistrate, and the man was put into prison ; ho said to a person, " When the sheep come home I in tend to work by night, when other people are in bed, and the sheep shall pine away and die, and the oldest man living shall never find out what was the matter with them." On another occasion he said it was a shame that Mr. Pinkney and Mr. Tabor did not find him work; it would serve them -- right if he poisoned their flocks of sheep ; it could be done ; any one could put some stuff in his pockets, and put it into the troughs, and the sheep would pine away and die, and no one would be the wiser. The prisoner was kept in gaol from July until October. During that time he wrote a letter to Mr. Pinkney, praying for mercy, and Mr. Pinkney did not appear, against him at the October sessions, and he was discharged. The being sent to gaol appeared to have made a great im pression on the prisoner's mind, and he was continually talking of having his revenge; and he said, " If ever he got out of gaol he would kill Mr. Pinkney, and make him a poorer man than himself; he would not do it as soon as he got out of gaol, because it would throw sus picion upon him; but there should be a greater cry than there ever had been yet; he would get some staff that would poison 2,000 sheep by throwing it into a little water, or in the young clover grass, or he world do it in the sheepfold." The prisoner came out of gaol in Octo ber, the sheep were taken into the yards in December. On the 22d of January, the prisoner endeavouredto ob tain some arsenic at a shop in Salisbury, but the drug gist refused to let him have any. He told him he *dated it in order to kill rats. Mr. EDWARDS having addressed the jury on beiialf of the prisoner, Mr. Justice COLERIDGE summed up, and The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty, POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. Andrew Baskerville was brought before the Lord''''" Mayor, charged with having committed a burglary and - robbery in the house of his uncle, Mr. Russell, of No. 52, Fenchurch-street. Mr. Russell stated that at about a quarter to six o'clock on the morning of the 2d of August, he was awoke by the ringing of the boll, and upon going down stairs, a policeman told him that he had found the door open. The window on the landing -place was also open, and they discovered that robbers had entered the house, and plundered it. The sitting-room was in great dis order, and the locks of the chiffonier, and a cupboard, and other depositories were broken open. Plate, con sisting of a tea-pot, sugar-basin, cream-jug, &c., of the value of about 251., was stolen, and amongst the plun dered property was the bowl of a meerschaum pipe, which the prosecutor's son had given to him a short time before, and which was produced in evidence against the prisoner. The prisoner had not been seen by the prosecutor for twelve months, and was not received at the house. He was perfectly acquainted with the house, and knew where the plate was deposited and where the cash-box was kept in the day-time. Luckily, the latter had been taken up to the prosecutor's bed-room, as was the custom, on the previous night. The prosecutor went to bed at a quarter past eleven o'clock, at which time everything was i❑ a safe and undisturbed condition. The window was found to have been broken, and the bolt to have been pulled back. They stem of the bull of the pipe was 4eft behind by the thieves, who must have been in the house for some time. They had throw❑ the bottles of the silver cruet-stand on the floor. A drawer over the chiffonier was undistured ; but, no doubt, if the thieves had not been alarmed, they would have done more mischief. The prisoner—The complainant says that I knew where the cash-box was kept, and if I knew as I did that he took it up to his bed-room every night, why should I break open the cupboard, where it was kept in the day-time ? The prosecutor—lt was fortunate that I had removed it that night at any rate. ' Mr. George T. Russell, son of the prosecutor, and re siding at No. 93, Cheapside, stated that he had given the meerschaum bowl to his father, after having coloured it. W. Romaine, a policeman of the Metropolitan division, stated that in consequence of information which he had received he apprehended the prisoner on Saturday last, at two o'clock, in Lambeth. He called the .pri- sonar by name, and said there was a charge against him in the City, and that he must go to the station house to know the particulars. In the prisoner's pocket was found the bowl of the pipe which had been identi fied by the prosecutor and his son. The prisoner said he had purchased the ticket of the pipe -bowl, and released it before the Ist of August. It was stated by the policeman that the prisoner had been convicted as a rogue and vagabond, having been discovered under suspibtons circumstances, and in pos. session of several house-breaking implements. Remanded till Friday. A person of excellent character, who had held tho situation of parochial schoolmaster, at a short distance from town, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having taken a quantity of laudanum, with intent to destroy himself. The unhappy man had been discharged from his oc cupation in consequence of the operation of the new educational system in which the establishment he super intended was not included. The support of six of a family of nine was thus thrown upon the poor abided mother, whose " stitching " from morning till night her partner could no longer endure, and was determined never to witness more. lie purchased as much laudanum as would have destroyed half-a-dozen persons, and stepping into a public-house, emptied the bottle in a pint pot in which there was some beer, and drank off the potion. Ire was soon affected by the dose, and having acknowledged that an accumulation of miseries and horrors, arising from the dismal prospects of his family, had provoked him to the attempt upon his life, a medical man was immediately employed, and the stomach-pump was applied with effect. It was, however, necessary to send the poor patient to the hospital, and to detain him there for sezeral days, the condition of the body having become as unhealthy as that of his mind. A gentleman stepped forward and said that the de fendant was a man of unimpeachable character, and a perfect example to the young persons who had been un der his care. Alderman Finnis soon after entered the justice-room, and recognised the defendant as a person deserving of the high character which had been given of him. The LORD MAYOR.—What could have induced such a man as you to make this dreadful attempt?—The de fendant, after some hesitation, said I have been in the habit of taking laudanum to correct the want of sleep, which has, no doubt, been produced by the distracted state of my mind, but I am not aware that I had any intention to commit the crime of sell destruction. If I had God forgive me. The LORD MAYOR said he should not discharge the defendant without receiving something like security that there would be no repetition of the offence. The gentleman who had spoken in such warm term's of the defendant at once proposed to be bail for the good behaviour of the defendant, whose case excited the warmest sympathy, and Alderman Finnis said he ex pected to be able to render him permanent service. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. COW-SHEDS IN THE METROPOLIS.—A number of cow keepers were summoned before Mr. Bingham, at the in stance of the parish of St. James, on a certificate to the commissioners for paving the parish, signed by J. Toyn bee and John French, two medical men, to the effect that the parties in question occupied premises in the various localities specified; that the said premises were in an unwholesome state from the accumulation of offen sive matter, refuse, or dung, and from want of proper space and ventilation; and that the same was likely to be prejudicial to the health of the occupiers or persons whose habitations were in the neighbourhood. The first case called on was that of John Newcombe, cowkeeper, who kept a cow-stable in Little Marlborough street. Mr. Yorke, clerk to the paving board, attended on behalf of the parish, and produced medical certificates, in consequence of which, and the complaints of many of the inhabitants of St. James's, ho went to various cow-sheds in the parish to inspect their condition. He found generally that these sheds gave out an offensive odour, and that there was such an accumulation of filth as to render it not unlikely that contagious disease might be generated. As the parish was engaged in carrying out sanitary regulations, and as sickness pre vailed, and the chulera was said to be approaching, the parish had instructed him to lay informations against the parties who kept these sheds. In the defendant's case he found a number of cows crowded together, and, in addition, a tank of dung, which smelt very offensively. The defendant, a bluff, hale, old man, said tho smell was wholesome, and he offered his own appearance i t s an evidence of the fact. Mr. BINCINAM considered that it was necessary to take precautions against that which might become a dan gerous nuisance; and on the defendants undertaking to have their sheds cleaned regularly, the summonses were allowed to stand over.
