A f„ "! sc tcut ,A L _ DF; r 0 intort •.• 0: 4 / ettilltox 'l°Hit LONDON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1849, It is of the utmost importance to the health and well-being of every inhabitant of the metropolis that the system of sewerage and draining, to be for the future adopted, should be as perfect as possible ; and no system of sewerage can be considered as perfect which does not preserve the Thames from pollution. We, therefore, trust that in the proposed system of sewerage for Richmond care will be taken that the Thames shall not be made the receptacle of the filth and refuse of that town and its neighbourhood. The Board of Health have warned the public, over and over again, of the danger arising from open drains, and, under the present system, the Thames is made the vast open drain for the whole of the metro lis ; and it is worthy of remark, that the recent in crease of cholera, in the metropolitan parishes bor dering on the Thames, has been contemporaneous with the flushing of the sewers in the snore inland and elevated districts. We would, therefore, earnestly impress upon the autho rities the necessity of devising some plan which shall save for the future the Thames from pollution, and restoring to us our fine river in its pristine purity, make it that which GOD intended it should be, the source of health to those inhabiting its banks, and not what man has made it, the prolific parent of deadly disease. But while we would have the Thames preserved pure, in order that the air which we breathe may be preserved pure also, we would equally protest against the adoption of any other method for the disposal of the sewage which should have the effect of rendering the air impure. Some persons have proposed that the sewage in its fermenting and corrupting and stinking state should be taken at once from the sewers, without being subjected to any disinfect ing proseis, and spread over the fields as manure, With the example of Edinburgh before us, we 'cannot but fear that this plan, however bene ficial to the fields and gardens, would, so far as the pers ons inhabitin g the neighbourhood se those fields and gardens are concerned, be neither more nor less than sowing the seeds of disease broad cast. If the evaporation from the surface of a cess pool five feet in diameter is sufficient to infect witl cholera or fever all the inhabitants of the block o houses in the neighbourhood of which such cesspoo is situated, what must be the effect produced by at evaporation of ce,spool fluid from a surface of several hundred acres in extent ? But we need not theorist on the subject, the experiment of " fetid irrigation' has been largely tried in the neighbourhood of Edin burgh, and %%rah the best effects, so far as an increa-t in the agricultural production or Liiv . with anything but be neficial effects as regards the public health of the neighbourhood. Dr. ALISON, Mr. LISTON, and other celebrated medical men, have published their opinion> as to the deleterious effects produced by the exhale. tions from lands thus irrigated on the public health " The atmosphere," says Dr. ALISON, " over and around the irrigated lands in the neighbourhood, when loaded with noxious emanations, is known to produce, even by very temporary action, immediate deviations from health ;" and the late Mr. LISTON declared that he had been long convinced that the irrigation of the loss grounds and meadows -around Edinburgh was a fruitful source of fevers and various kinds of typhus. The Piers-hill Barracks are situated in the immediate neighbourhood of these irrigated lands, and at the time of the first appearance of cholera in this country Dr. Bannow, then surgeon of the 31 Dragooi Guards, stationed at Piers-hill Barracks, mad, the following official report on the sub. ject to Sir JAMES INI`GREGOR ; the report is dated 6th December, 1831. In this report Dr. I3ARLow says, "At this period when so must alarm exists on the subject of cholera, and when hi? AIAJESTY'S Government are enforcing so strongly all th 3 means calculated to prevent its appearance, or to diminish its malignity, I feel it my duty as surgeon of the regiment now occupying Piers Hill Barracks, to call your attention to a public nuisance of a mos extensive kind, which exists in the immediate vicinity of the barracks. It is an accumulation of every specie of filth from the common sewers of Edinburgh, and spread out artificially so as to cover a surface o several hundred acres." " The situation of the bar racks," continue. Dr. BARLOW, " is healthy,"and then as proof of the deleterious effects of the exhala tions from the fermenting sewage, he re lates the following fact :—" A messman of the 7th Dragoon Guards alleges that he has found from observation and experience that the butcher'? meat which he provides for the mess becomes vent soon tainted at Piers hill, much sooner than in any other place with the same temperature. So convinced is he that his inference is well founded, that he has hired a room in Edinburgh where he preserves his meat until it be ready for dressing." We think that the result of the experiment in Edinburgh proves that it would be by no means proper to spread sewage refuse over a large surface in the neighbourhood of populous districts without such sewage having been previously disinfected. The public attention having, by the ravages of the prevailing epi demic, been effectually roused to the im portance of the subject of drainage, it is the duty of the authorities to take advantage of that circumstance to secure for the inhabitants of the metropolis as perfect a system of drainage as human ingenuity can devise; the first object to be re garded in such a system is the preservation of the public health, and therefore no system which pollutes either the water we drink or the air we breathe can be considered as perfect. Among the many imposts levied upon the British nation, there is perhaps none more unequal in opera tion, or more unprofitable to the Exchequer, consi dering the amount of property upon which it is chargeable, than the land tax. If fairly and equit ably asses se d, according to the intention of the Le gislature by which it was first granted, it would now produce nearly 20 ,000,000/. sterling, sufficient to defray th e expenses of our naval military, and ordnance thpartments, and of the entire civil overn ment of the c ountry. Owinm g to the grossg mis manageent that h as taken place, and th e unwise and impolitic provision which enabled parties charge:ll)le therewith t o re d eem the liability for a mere trifle, the amount pad into the Exchequer is lees than 1,200,000/. terling, or abut six per cent. of what ought to h© the real produce of the tax. Nothing could be sounder in principle than the land. tax on its original creation. It was in fact to all intents and purposes a property tax in its most unobjectionable intended to and there can b e no d ou bt th a t i t was to be levied on personal as well as real property. It was desired that every man should contribute to the national Exchequer in proportion to his means. But there was at that period but little personal property, gad that could h 4tJily conceal 4 ci uiaJ away wich) Elsewhere in our columns will be found a commu. cation addressed to ourselves by a very afflicted 4 - entleman, the father of the unfortunate Lieutenant GRAHAM. Every one, we are satisfied, who has become acquainted with the particulars relating to the Childers and its recent Commander will peruse with -he deepest interest, and with the most genuine -motion, the remarks contained in this interesting tocument. In the course of a postscript, which we tbstain from publishing, our correspondent (whose affliction, although the writer is an entire stranger to ourselves, has excited our profoundest sympathy) ,bserves that his son, now incarcerated in Exeter county gaol, is " treated as a felon, and fed as a felon," exclaiming, in a kind of incredulous indignation, Do I live in England, or in Algeria ?" So long As justice remains unsatisfied, in reference to Mr. PITMAN and Lieutenant GRAHAM, we shall not cease to comment upon the cruelty of , he whole proceeding towards the latter, and towards Mr. ELLIOTT, his companion in misfortune. It will afford us, moreover, unalloyed gratification to forward the production of a memorial addressed to her Most Gracious MAJESTY, who is ever the willing source of consolation to the unfortunate. Such a memorial from the People to the SOVEREIGN is, we maintain, seriously called for at the present moment, not only to mitigate the excessive punishment imposed upon these two young officers, the victims of atrocious tyranny and lamentable vindictiveness, but is essen tial, also, as the readiest means of bringing down destruction on the existing system of naval and m tary courts-martial. HER MAJESTY'S DEPARTURE FROM SCOTLAND...-. Tho royal train is ordered to consist of seven carriages, and her Majesty will either occupy the same carriage in which she travelled from Glasgow to Perth, or the sa loon carriage belonging to the London and North- Western, which then accompanied her, and now, we believe, awaits her at Perth. An engine belonging to the Edinburgh and Glasgow line will, as a matter of course, be attached to the train at Greenhill, and an en gine of the North-British at the station here. Tho dis tance from Perth to Edinburgh by this route is 7i miles, which will likely be acc:;mplished in little more than two hours. No furtlarr communication has as yet been re ceived here from Balmoral as to her Majesty's passing through Edinburgh, and no steps have teen taken by any public bodies to demonstrate their loyalty, by their preaence on the platform or otherwise, till her M a j es t y ' s a ishes be ascertained. —.-Catedohian Mercury.

By Samuel Mil'er, Etc h BArrister•at-Law. London. B. Sweet, Chumplaue. 1846, Pp. 34. :~.~;, THE SUN, and accordingly, for convenience sake, and to remove the temptation to fraud, the assessment (like the poor rate) was by general consent made upon the more tangible species of property that could not be removed from the collector's sight. The first statute expressly relating to the assess ment and collection of the land-tax, is the 4th William and Mary, c. 1. That Act, like all others imposing any burdens upon the people at that early period, was passed but for a limited time. Its provisions were, however, embodied in other measures passed every year, until the year 1798. When the invention of the Minister was e x ert e d t o th e hi g h es t d egree t o discover approved forms of taxation, so obvious an impost could not be overlooked. The Act, 38 Geo. 111. c. 5, was accordingly passed (soon afterwards rendered per petual by another Act), under which the impost has ever since been collected. The Act directed that a sum of 1,989,6731. should be raised in England and Wales, and 47,9541. in Scotland for land-tax, accord ing to the several proportions at which each county, city, borough, town, or stewartry was then as sessed. The propositions were fully set forth in the Act itself, and commissioners were appointed to determine what part of the sum assessed upon each county should be paid by the parishes or hundreds, but in settling such quota the commissioners were to be governed by the assessments made in pursuance of the 4th Wm. and Mary, c. 1., upon which the as• s essments made upon various counties and districts specified in the Act were founded ; and the tax was to be raised by an equal pound rate not exceeding four shillings in the pound. Another clause in that important statute directed that personal estate should also contribute at the rate of 4s. in the pound upon the annual value, or 20s. for every 1001. of capital towards the sums to be raised under the Act. This most just and equitable enactment was repealed by a subsequent statute. It, however, affords the strongest confirmation of the truth of our assertion, that the land-tax was in effect nothing more nor less than a property- tax of 4s. in the pound, or 20 per cent. on all accumulated and rea lised property of every description —a tax which would, if fairly levied, produce sufficient to defray the entire national expenditure, and to permit the abolition of the Customs, Excise, Stamps, assessed . theta taxes, e i s n , g a e n n d u t t h y e o v f a v r a i o r i u o s u o s t c h e h r a n in e o e i d i e o s r s of of taxation Ee h w e q h which has from time to time invented. Mr. DISRAELI recently directed the attention of the meeting at Aylesbury to the gross inequality of the operation of this impost. He inveighed against the impropriety of charging the farmers of Bucking hamshire no less than ls. sd. in the pound, while the merchants of Liverpool were required to contribute less than one farthing in the pound. He clearly and distinctly exhibited the injustice of overlooking the extraordinary alterations of value that have taken place since 1692, the period at which the assessments were originally fixed, when the annual value of the property chargeable with the land tax was only 9,948,3651., although it is now nearly ten times that amount, that is to say, for England and Wales 88,724,253/., and for Scotland 9,481,7421., in all 98,205,9951. The Honourable Gentleman, however, limited his view to the part unfairly pressing en the agricultural interest. He spoke of the heavy burdens imposed on Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, and Bedfordshire, in comparison with Liverpool, Man chester, and Brighton, which, in fact, have sprung up and attained extraordinary prosperity within the last century and a half. He might, however, have cited instances no less inequitable in almost adjoining parishes. He might have shown that in the metro polis itself the amount of land-tax levied on the wealthy and aristocratic parish of St. Marylebone does not amount to more than ene.half of a farthing , n the pound, v bile St. Paul's, Covent-garden, pays no less than Is. lop., and Cripplegate IVithout more than ls. Bd. in the pound. He might have stated that St. Martin's, Carey-street, in he city of York, pays Did. in the pound, while its more fortunate neighbour, St. Martin's cum-Gregory, in the same city, does not pay quite id. ; although :he inhabitants of Shengay, in Cambridgeshire, con tribute no less than 2s. 9d. in the pound, and of 'Vinchibea, in Sussex, still higher, in consideration of heir quondam wealth and splendour. These gross anomalies should undoubtedly be cor rected susTa l irigi Trie - pl A ral - re .h cie - M L P i t redemption -hat - hat has already taken place has been used as an argument against any change; but even if there were Any validity in this argument —a point on which we .hall not at present pronounce any opinion, but which we may perhaps consider on a future occasion-- it could not apply to more than two-thirds ,f the real property in the country, the owners of which neglected to avail themselves of the , pportunities placed within their reach. A new valuation of the remainder, and an equal assessment According to the original rate of 4s. in the pound, would now produce about 14,000,0001. sterling per annum, sufficient to provide for the maintenance of the poor and all the local rates and charges, in addition to the sum now returned to the Exchequer, or even an equal rate of ls. 6d., as mentioned by Mr. DISRAELI, would give 5,000,0001., very valuable assistance to the Financial Minister, and which could be profitably disposed of in a variety of different methods. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. national guard ; and it adopted a clause, enacting that " a national guard shall be formed to protect order, persons, and property." The Chamber after wards proceeded with the discussion of the other clauses of the Constitution, but nothing of interest occurred. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The Committee of twenty-five of the Legislative Assembly held their usual weekly meeting on Thurs day, M. BAROCHE in the chair. The proposition of MM. BAC and LAGRANGE, for the immediate convo cation of the Assembly, was not taken into considera• tion, and after the transaction of some business of a merely formal character the Committee adjourned. It is said that M. DE BEAUMONT is to be dispatched immediately on an extraordinary mission to Vienna, and that M. Boss LE COMTE will be removed to Madrid from Turin, and will be succeeded at the Court of Turin by M. LUCIEN MURAT. It is said that M. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE will probably be appointed Ambassador to Sweden. Although the trial of the accused of the 13th June is fixed for the commencement of October, they have not as yet received any copy of the indictment, nor are they at all aware of the nature of the charges against which they will have to defend themselves. This sharp practice on the part of the public prosecutor resem bles the worst days of the restoration, and shows a desire for vengeance rather than fur justice. These papers fully confirm the intelligence which we published yesterday, of the noble refusal of the SULTAN to accede to the demands of the Austrian Ambassador for the extradition of KOSSUTH and his companions. The National says that the Austrian Ambassador, by his maladroit pertinacity, drew upon himself one of the smartest rebuffs that ever insolent ambas sador received from an offended Prince, and it adds the following additional information as to the inten tions of Turkey towards the Hungarian refugees : " It is said to be the intention of the Turkish Govern ment to transport, to the Island of Candia, the thousands of Hungarian soldiers who prefer exile to the tender mercies of the Austrian Government." It appears that Sir STRATFORD CANNING told the SULTAN that his personal honour was concerned in the affair, and that the representations of the English Ambassador were firmly supported by General Aursc, the French Minister. The English and the French Governments are, therefore, pledged to give the SULTAN every support in their power in the honourable path which he has chosen. The following address has been published by the permanent committee of the Mountain : " TO THE PEOPLE. "Brethren and Friends,—lt will be 57 years on the 22d of September since our glorious forefathers pro claimed the Republic; no anniversary shines more bril= liantly in the history of the world. The events which bear down the Democrats in Italy, in Germany, and in Hungary grieve our hearts, but without weakening our courage and our hopes. The universal republic will come forth triumphant from so many misfortunes if France, by her calm and dignified attitude, supports and defends the standard of liberty of the people which Pro v id ence has placed in her hands. Serious duties are imposed on us ; in presence of the Constitu tion, which proclaims the right of meeting, to assemble together is a crime, to sit down together at a fraternal banquet to celebrate the Republic, is an offence against the Republic. Such is the state of things which has been made for us. Atter having protested against the laws which attack the imprescriptible rights of man, are we to set them at defiance? or by accepting them, retrograde beyond the 22d F e b ruary? No. Love of the Republic, fraternity of nations, and hatred of tyrants, are engrave° on our souls in imperishable characters ; French demo cracy does not require to give proofs of its devotedness and to make known the generous ideas with which it is animated. The misery of the people is still frightful; our enemies falsely attribute their sufferings to Republican demonstrations. The most legitimate and the most pacific popular manifestation would be made a fresh pretext for accusing the Republicans and absolving the Government of its want of power. Toe National Assembly is about to resume its tabours; let us wait for the remedies which the majority may have found during its leisure to re-establish credit, to close the gulf of deficit, to put an end to sufferings, and raise up the standard of the Republic before the eyes of nations. Placed in the midst of the impossibiii ties inherent to its policy, the majority, we are convinced can do noshing for the revolution, nothing for the Re- public; let them not be able to say that our impatience and our agitation have thwarted their plans of financial and social renovation; the weakness of the Government must be shown clearly, without excuses and without pre texts. The high court, which is about to sit, must be free from all pre occupation, ever frivolous and lying. which it would be sought to give birth to by our patrio tic meeting. Our friends, accused of the imaginary plot of the 13th June, will only defend the outraged Con stitution with more authority. Let us, then, abstain, and leave to our adversaries all the burden of a state of things which bears them down, in order that France may once more judge between them and us. Brethren, let us abstain! Let us be calm and serious like a free people who know how to suffer and wait! Let us con centrate in the bosem of our families, in our domestic hearth, the fetes of this glorious anniversary, and al though we be not all seated at the same fraternal table, on the same day, and at the same hour, we will exclaim with the same enthusiasm and with the same heart Vive la Rikiubli que .'" , The konFddefc,rtbteheSeine n e e a ko n iin e, - a c re "- c - o convoked 14th t bAc u to ri ra cu t ()et, to elect representatives in the room of Mill.

RUSSIA. The funeral of the Grand Duke MICHAEL took place at Warsaw on the 16th. The French Ambas sador and his suite have left Warsaw fur St. Peters burgh. The Circassians, taking advantage of the with• drawal of the Russian forces from their frontiers for the Hungarian campaign, have expelled the Russians from an immense extent of territory, and have destroyed several of their forts. The Circassians have crossed the Couban, and put all the Russian garrisons in that quarter to the sword. HOLLAND. CHANGE OF MINISTRY. The Journal du Commerce states that on the 18th, at the close of the Cabinet Council, all the Ministers en masse tendered their resignation. The KING accepted the same this morning, and has summoned M. VAN LIGHTEN -VELDT and M. DONKER CURTIUS, and charged them with the formation of a new Ministry. SWITZERLAND. The Council of State of Tessin has received the followingexplanation of th e cause of the concentra tion ofthe Austrian troops on the frontiers of their can ton The Austrian Generals assert that the concentration is for the purpose—first, of inducing Tessin to agree to the measures adopted by the Federal Council in respect to the refugees ; secondly, as a precaution against the assembling of the discontented of all countries in the canton ; and, thirdly, to be ready to meat any casualty which might arise from the entry of the German refugees into Switzerland." We cannot conclude our observations on this subject without directing attention to a pamphlet (rem the pen of SAMUEL MILLER, Esq., Barrister-at- Law,* in which will be found a great variety of useful information on this important point, and in which the justice and expediency of a speedy change is very clearly demonstrated.

The news that a Protestant place of worship was about to be built has awakened the fanaticism of the masses. This itation became more violent still, when the parish a priest of Inns pruck, having proposed in the municipal council to declare that the town of Innspruck should always continue to be a Catholic commune, this proposition was rejected. The country clergy have represented to the peasantry that the Catholic faith was in great danger from it. The Catholic Union have held a great meeting in Innspruck, at which the Prince 110HENLOBE pronounced a discourse so limatic that it has shocked the most ardent Catholics." 1 An announcement of the appointment ofRADETSBY as Stadholder, and of HATNAU as Commander in- Chief of the Lombardo -Venetian kingdom appears in the Gratz Gazette.

The following account of the reception of the Hun garian refugees in Turkey appears in the German Reform : " on the 20th August the first body of about 20 refu gees arrived at Kala'at, escorted by half a squadron of Turkish cavalry. They were furnished with lodgings, and a ll owed lib erty to walk about in the city without a guard. Among them teas Dembinski, Messaros, and the two brothers Pert zel. Dembinski suffered from a wound in the left shoulder. After staying here some hours boats were sent from Widdin to convey them to the other side of the river. During the afternoon of the 24th, Kossuth arrived with three baggage-waggons. He also repaired to the Turkish authorities, who immediately furnished him with a small boat to rejoin his companions. The Austrian consular agent received intelligence the next day that Kossuth, Messaros, Dembinski, and the other refugees, were lodged in a suburb of Widdin, where the Turkish authorities have given Kossuth a , guard of honour."

The POPE, intending "to keep the promise to the ear, but break it to the hope," sent an amnesty, which was in fact no amnesty at all, and General ROSTOLAN, refusing to be a party to such a Jesuitical juggle, very properly refused to accept or publish it. Letters from Florence announce that the Grand DUKE is about to visit the Emperor of AUSTRIA at Trieste. Previous to his departure he will publish a liberal amnesty. GARIBALDI left Genoa on the 16th for Tunis, where he will remain for three months. If at the expira tion of that time public tranquillity should continue undisturbed, he will be permitted to return to Pied mont. The Concordia of Turin, of the 17th, gives the following particulars concerning GARIBALDI'S visit to Mee :--" GARIBALDI has, so to say, been carried in triumph by the population of Nice. He embraced with emotion his old mother, his aunt, and his other relations, who pressed him to their bosoms, while his children, MENOTTI and RICIOTTI, em braced his knees. This happy interview was sad dened only by the absence of his late wife, whom the brave officer has been so cruelly bereaved of during the latter events. GARIBALDI called upon his friend DESDERT, who has adopted his little daughter TERESITA ; GARIBALDI'S carriage could move but slowly in the streets, as every body wished to greet him. When TERESITA saw her father, she ex claimed, Grandinamma has been to Rome, she will have told you how good I have been !' GARIBALDI was struck with these bimple words, which but too clearly reminded him of the loss he had sustained. He passed the day with his friend DBSDRET, and next morning returned on board the St. Georges, as he had promised. lie was everywhere saluted by cheers on his way to the steamer. The following is a letter of his to one of his friends : "My dear friend—l am to sail to-morrow for Tunis on board the Tripoli. I have seen what you have done for me, and what your generous colleagues have done. I charge you to express my gratitude to them. I have no reason to complain of any one. I believe we are in times in which resignation is necessary, for we aro in times of bitterness. Remember me to all the brave defenders of the Italian cause, and love your " Genoa, Sept. 15." " SEMI GARRIBALD L The Concordia adds that the authorities at Genoa treat him with the greatest regird. He has an orderly at his service, and a sentinel at his door. Hi s friends are allowed free access to him. I'VESr snit REY ELECTION. (TIIIS DAY.)

On arriving at the Town Hall the proceedings were opened by the Sheriff, and the candidates were in due course presented to the etectors. Colonel 11. SUMNER proposed Mr. Evelyn, and Mr. THURLOW, in a brier speech, seconded the motion. Mr. Goss, Chairman of the Bench of Magistrates, pro posed Mr. MT. LONG, of Fa rnham , and the nominati on was seconded by a s h ow o f h an d s was taken and eecland b be The candidates having respect i vely addressed the electors, in favour of Mr. Edgell. The friends of Mr. Evelyn demanded a poll, which tho Sheriff announced would take place on Tuesday S and Wednesday next. A vote of thanks to the Sheriff closed the proceedings of the day. The business excited so much interest, that the pro ceedings, which commenced in the T own H all, had to be adjourned into the open air. CRIMINAL COURT.—(THIS DAY. OLD COURT: (Before Mr. Justice WlLwasts and Alderman Sir CHAP. NAN MARSHALL.) EMBEZZLEMENT.—A respectably attired young man named Ldward Rced Sertzenick, described as a clerk, was indicted for embezalieg two several sums of 301. and 801., the property of Messrs. Maireo, his employers. Mr. Bel!amino appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Clarkson delended the prisoner. It appeared from the statement of the Learned Counsel and the evidence for the prosecution, that the prosecutors were aucti o n eers an d house and estate agents, and the prisoner had fill d the situation of ma nager of one department of their business, for which be was paid, besides a commision on the business he trans acted, a weekly salary of 10s. In the course of his duties he had to apply to a Mr. Fletcher, the owner of a house in Chester -square, which had been let through the agency of the prosecutors, for 301. to discharge the landlord's taxes, and he was furnished with a cheque for the amount, but instead of devoting the money to the purpose for which it was obtained he applied for the rent o f a h ouse wh i ch had also been let through the instrument a lit y o f hi s employers; but when charged with havin g neg l ecte d to apply the 301. to the payment of the taxes, or to h an d over the 801. to the landlord of the house in r es p ec t o f w hi ch i t had been paid, or to the prosecutors, he set up a cl a i m to b e i ng a partner in the h i t ad t o be h e i n s p o a w id n t n us e. hini T a h s e t r h e e w coa the prison er o f o b ta i n i ng and embezzling 801., which lah:to sercoofndthceapseroastgvauintoart firm of Messrs. lithe°, and insisted that he had therefore a right to make what use of the money he thought proper without rendering himself liable to a criminal prosecution. It was, however, shown that, although the prisoner filled a very confidential and responsible situation in the ser vice of the prosecutors, he acted solely in the capacity of a paid servant, and had never been looked upon or con sidered in the light of a partner either by the prosecu. tors or the principal,, for whom they acted. The payment of the money to the prisoner, and his neglect to account for it having been proved, it was pro posed to put in a letter in the handwriting of the prisoner to establish the character of the connexion between him and the prosecutors, b u t Mr. CLARKSON contended that it partook of the na ture of an agreement, whereof the value was above the value of 20 4 ; and inasmuch as it bore no stamp it could not be admitted in evidence. The COURT reserved the point, but still allowed the letter to be read. Mr. CLARKSON then argued that the letter was evi dence of a partnership between the prisoner and the prosecutor, and ought at once to determine the case in favour of his c li ent. Mr. BALLANTINE was heard on the other side, and The COURT determined to reserve this point also, at the same time expressing an opinion that it had better be put to the jury to say, whether or not they thought a partnership did exist between the parties. One of the prosecutors was accordingly cross examined with the view of establishing the fact that a partnership did exist. Mr. CLARKSON s ubsequently addressed the jury for the defence, insisting that the moneys received by the prisoner formed partsof the debt due to him and the prosecutors, as partners, and they ought, therefore, to have no hesitation • in acquitting him of this unjust char;;,. Mr. Justice WittrAlite summed up, and The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty ••••••••••...- 27 3 4 59 29 11: 92 and Siieff. ) Do. (W. Riding Union) 9 .. x.d.... —x.d Do. (Preston & Wyre) 25 ......

The d R From the centre of Englund to its remotest ex tri,mities the effect of cholera is felt, and it would seem that some such scourge was necessary to compel th e inhabitants of this island to purify their localities, and to remove as far as far as possible the cause of crime; for the tact cannot be hidden that crimes are now committed in this country which are almost unraralleled or their hideous nature. IS appears that men, however intelli gent,l(rnagwaecrce f theust(tinaed dtosetgreheefohuylest abominations, are scarcely which h rounded: from mighty London down to the clustering arelustersinnrg" hamlet, this rule will apply: the very foundations of the metropolis are fast becoming a heaving mass of corrup tion from i n t ramura l b ur ials, and the inhabitants who swarm round the Whaplode Pitts will tell the str an g er that the w ater i s wholesome and health-giving, because it is salt. The fact is, it is nauseous from the contents of open privies, dead dogs, cats, and the foul refuse of generations. The evil is not confined to the spot; the poisonous atoms which dance over these receptacles, and the foul vapour, are caught and wafted to other homes. The cholera season will come round again; in the mean time, precaution becomes an imperative duty.— Stamford Mercury. THE CHOLE RA AND TERTOTALISM.—The cholera , we are happy to sa y, i s somew h a t a b a ted, though Sall operating to an extent t o maintain alarm, and to diffuse effirction on litery side. There is somewhat remarkable in the character of its operations. One day, the friends of total abstinence have been heard saying, " Our time is now come! You shall see what will befall the moderate drinkers, end the drunkards, and how their alcohol has been preparirg them for destruction;" and to-morrow you will hear of the excellent William Cash, of the So ciety of Friends, and a prince among teetotallers, re moutig to his family at Llastings the one day, and brought back a corpse the other! And, as it such a mark was not sufficiently significant, you shall hear the next day of the excellent Archdeacon Jeffries, of Bom bay, whose praise in connexion with total abstinence has filled not only England, but America—a gentleman who has survived amidst all the raveges of the cholera in t c h l e eriza il l ew fr i iend in bis l On h a im corp the East—you %sill hear of him reaching England, ar sareievvtietriigs o te ,oc n nl ki S t uf ttu d n,, a i y (ll: , assisting; 11 behold eehe. ere exempt trom the srrok e e it o h t er thiz s se l ng N d o ay cla ti ss t which notiing is known, h n e e visitation, eee se or the f D to iv t i cure.—British Banner. uanvneec lede ssa th r) e • m q QUARAN TINE AND COMMERCE.-The mercan tile (.. t ses at Malts, w h ose i nterests one wou ld suppose wouldf h z r m a r th an er lin t e o ( a a d n v d oc i a n te de t e h d e , totaleamboilai take not, such has evt r heretofore been their unceasing cry), have absurdly advanced a petition to the local go vernment, praying that this expensive, and at the same litre in most cases vexatious restriction on trade s be at once imposed and rigorously carried into effect upon arrivals from sill ports and places where cholera morbus setually exists. The Board of Health of Naples and Sicily will no doubt know when, and as occasion may require, which is pretty frequent, how to appreciate and , make the most of the solicitude of the merchants of Malta for the protection of the public health.—Malta Mail. THE SILK TRADE OF C I IESIIIRE.—It is gratifying to state that the staple trade of Macclesfield and Congle ton, the two great seats of the silk trade in Cheshire, continues in a tbriving and healthy condition. Weavers are in demand, and all the dye-houses are in lull and constant employment. The silk trade, up to slate period, had been in a drooping state, and the working classes engaged in it had suffered much and severe privations. At present the labouring population are in comparatively easy circumstances, and the cheapneto of food Ode much to their domestic comfatE4 Lamb. 4i od to 4s 103; Vest], 3i Od to 3s 6d; and Putli, 34 4d to 4s Oil pk r 81bs.
