TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Six,—You have so ably and manfully upheld the interests of British commerce, that I trust no apology is needed for soliciting your powerful assistance on the present occasion. THE INCOME TAX. Yesterday a public meeting of the inhabitants of the Ward of Farringdon Without, was held in the New Court, Old Bailey, to adopt measures against the pro posed income tax, Alderman Sir James Duke, M.P., in the chair. THE ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITU TION WAS RE-OPENED to the Publie en EAS TER MONDAY, and will be opened every Day in the Week, at Ten o'clock, A. M. New arrangements are respectfully announced. As Sir Robert Peel seems really in earnest, in his endeavour to uphold our commerce, I would respect fully suggest that the annual donation of 21,0001. to the King of Hanover be withheld, until an adjust ment of the tolls levied by that Potentate on British merchandise can be adjusted on terms fair and equit thie to both parties. If Sir Robert Peel's Government would have the manliness to propose - the sustpension of this grant, until his Majesty will listen to Win, I feel convinced, that, notwithstanding a few wry faces from the ultras of my party, they will be supported :33, , a large majority in the House of Commons, and by the almost universal voice of the commercial and snanufacturing classes. Although lam not afraid or ashamed of my politics, I cannot forget the assistance rendered by my party, when in opposition, to the Radicals, in effecting a reduction of the allowance to the King of Belgium, and I hope they will be equally just on the present occasion, for the prejudice of party cannot render me unmindful of the grievous injury inflicted on our commerce, and the vexatious imposi tions on the masters of our merchant ships, by the preposterous amount of toll levied by the King of Har Hover, as well as the mode of collecting it. Alth oug h the names of th e Queen, ME Queen Dowager, Prince Albert, the Duke of Cambridge, and other branches of our Royal Family, are often seen heading subscriptions to relieve the unexampled suffering and distress now prevailing in many parts of the king dom, the King of Hanover does not appear to contp bute a single shilling to any one of the numerous appeals made to the affluent in behalf of our star v i ng .. multitudes. Sir, your obedient servant, Hull, March 14, 1842. AN OLD TORY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Mr. Pontifex, ward clerk, having read the notice convening the meeting, Mr. CHARLES Wool) moved the first resolution, and said that Sirßobert Peel should not, in time of peace, have resorted to an income tax when there were other means by which he could have increased the revenue. According to his own showing, there was only a deficit of two millions and a half to make good in th e revenue. Mr. Wood then enumerated at length the proposed alterations in the customs duties, and said, those were the acts of a man who, two years ago, ztood up and cried out—No surrender, no reduc tion in the Corn-laws.—(Hear, hear.) He has not only gone a little way to oblige Lord John Russell, but he has gone further, by attempting, through an oppressive and sweeping act, to take as much from a poor man, who endeavoured to keep his family off the parish, as from the Duke of Devonshire, whose property was fixed and settled.—(Hear, hear.) From the Government officers 155,000/. was to be taken, which was cruel and oppressive in the extreme ; but what could they expect but injustice, when the Eng lish counties sent in 139 Tory Members, and only 20 Liberals. . They coul4 n t .t petition against the income tax. If they p ro t es t e d against it, they would be laughed at. It only, therefore, remained for them to appoint a deputation to wait upon their representa tives, and tell them that, if they did not oppose the income tax, they should not have their votes. • Mr. PROCTOR seconded the resolution, which passed nem. con. At Twelve o'clock the‘LARGEST ELECTRIFYING MA CHINE yet constructed (which can only be worked by Steam Power) displays wonderful effects, including the ELECTRIC LIGHT, AURORA BOREALIS, &c., &e.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, AVI NG - the honour of being recommended JILAL ' to you by the Directors of the East India Company as CANDIDATES for the DIRECTION, to be chosen this year, we take : the liberty of requesting the favour of your Vote and Interest on the day of Election, WEDNESDAY, the 13th April next. We are, WARD OF FAIIRINGDON WITHOUT, 30th March, 1842. At a WARDMOTE held this day, at the New Court, Old Bailey, before the Worshipful Sir James Duke, M.P. Alderman of the Ward, in compli ance with a REQUSITION of the INHABITANT HOUSE HOLDERS of this WARD, " To express their sentiments in regard to the proposed income ;8i; arid to adopt such resolutions relative thereto as they may deem expedient," the following resolutions were moved, seconded, and carried unanimously : That an income tax is unjust in principle, unequal in opera . . Ladies and Gentlemen, Your moat obedient and most humble Sesvants, WILLIAM ASTELL WILLIAM BUTTERWORTH BAYLBY RUSSELL ELLICE ARCHIBALD GALLOWAY RICHARD JENKINS JOHN MASTERMAN East India House, March 30, 1842. •„"' Proprietors desirous of Veting by Proxy may obtain a Letter of Attorney for that purpose at the Treasury in this [louse. . . tion, and arbitrary and ingtiisitoriai in its exaction. That the proposition to exact an income tax in the time of peace can only be to uphold the monopoly of the 'misled and other class interest, at the expense of all other portions of the community. That this meeting pledges itself, individually and collectively, to use every constitutional means to prevent this arbitrary and unjust tax from passing into a law. NATIONAL LOAN FUND SOCIETY • FOR GRANTING LIFE ASSURANCES, DEFERRED ANNUITIES, &a. No. 26, CORNHILL. Capital £500,000. Empowered by Special Act of Parliament. DIRECTORS. Mr. EDMUND PONYIFEX moved the second reso lution. He insisted that the income tax should not be imposed unless from stern necessity, and it was clear no such necessity existed.—(Hear.) They had to thank Sir Robert Peel for many things ; still so inquisitorial and so oppressive was the income tax that it could not be tolerated. Mr. WILLIAMS seconded the motion. He attribu ted the proposed tax to class legislation, and said that in the last year of the past income tax there were 14,000 surcharges in the City of London, and 18,000 appeals in the country. Mr. ANDEETON in an able speech, expo se d th e unequal effects th a t the tax would have upon men in trade and professions, 'and upon those who possessed large and steady incomes. Messrs. OBBARD and GURNEY followed on the same side. 'that the .Members of the City of London and county of Middlesex be requested to oppose, by every form within the rules of the House of Commons, this iniquitous and tyrannical measure, operating as it will most extensively against the best interests of this great commercial and manufacturing nation. That a deputation from this Ward do wait upon the Members of this City and the county of Middlesex, to request of ti.em to give their support to the resolutions carried at this Wardmote. That the following gentlemen do form such deputation : Alderman Sir James Duke, M.P. ; Messrs. Edmund Pontifex, R. Taylor, Anderton ; Deputy Bedford, Obbard. NATURALIST'S LIBRARY.—NEW VOLUME.

Again, I get credit, and pay at my convenience for the consumable articles, and the duties thereon, but not so with respect to the income tax ; every three months I shall be called on by the tax collector for one quarter's tax on income, and unless I pay promptly, ant liable to be summoned, and have my property distrained. The builder may be relieved by ,reduced duties on timber, and the shipowner by a lower imposts on foreign provisions for ships' use, but all this at my expense, who am saddled with this proposed odious inquisitorial income tax. We have absurdities upon absurdities. It is said that the new Corn-law is not for the purpose of exclusion of foreign corn, but for the protection of the home grower ; but why these high duties, when the price a corn is low ? is not the low price, with a moderate fixed d u ty, a sufficient protection ? hat foreigner would bring corn here if the low price would not remunerate him for the cost of his corn abroad, and the low fixed duty levied here, and the charges of transit. Take 40s. per quarter as the average price, at the port of shipment abroad, of corn, add the charge of transit, 105. per quarter, and a ( duty of 6s. per quarter, he lands his corn at a cost of 565. per quarter. The price in England is 50s. or 525. per quarter ; where, then, the necessity of a dut7 of 20s. or 18s. per quarter as a protection ? No, it is meant for the purpose of exclusion. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, March 29, 1842. ANTI-HUMBUG.. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. - - - SlR,—The principle of taxation recognized by Sir R. Peel, of every individual contributing according to his means, is unquestionably sound. Let us see whether it applies to the proposed income tax, which, as Sir Robert Peel says, is to be a tax "upon income," without reference to its_Dature, security, or permanence. According to Sir R. Peel's notions of justice, persons, are to be taxed, not according to the property they possess, but according to the income they derive from it, the prudent and industrious paying more than the idle and the improvident, and the "unprofitable Servant," who hides his talent in the napkin, escaping scot free. Now, there are .three individuals, eac h p ossess i ng 10,0001. One of them invests his property in. Three per Cent. Consols, deriving an income of about 325/. per annum, and paying a tax of about 9/. Another invests the same sum in Long Annuities, yielding about TOOL per annum, of which 350/. is so much of the principal paid off, and must be reinvested to keep up the original amount of his property. This person has to pay a tax of 20/:1 - orinore than double that of the other, 'though it is obvious that his " means" are no greater than those of the former. A third invests his money in business, and by industry and skill, and running the - chances of trade, he draws an income of 1,0001. a year, and pays a tax of 301., of which tax no less than 201., or two thirds of the whole, is a direct tax upon industry and commercial enterprise 1 This is Sir R. Peel's justice —this is the justice English merchants are to accept in lieu of fair conwetition and free trade. T. C. Mr. RICHARD TAYLOR said that the tax struck at the interests and liberties of the country. An Al derman in the City told him that when he paid the income tax his accounts and books were subjected to the most rigid inquir, while no allowance was made for dubious debts. Ihe result of the unpopularity of that measure was the presentation by Sir W. Curtis, the Tory Member for the City, of a petition against it, signed by 40,000. A c oun t er o ne was ?ot up, but only 20 persons could be found to sign it.—(Hear, hear.) It was absurd to speak of two millions and a half deficit upon the revenue when the country had a national debt of eight millions. After speeches from other members in the same spirit, a deputation, consisting of Sir James Duke, Messrs. Pontifex, Taylor, Bedford, Anderton, and. Obbard, waa appointed to wait upon the representa tives of the City and Middlesex to induce them to oppose the measure by every possible means. On Easter Tuesday a Vestry meeting was held in the Vestry-room, in the parish of St. John's, Wap ping, when resolutiofis were passed and a petition agreed to—" That this Vestry is of opinion that a tax on income is not a tax which ought to be resorted to only as a last resource; that the income tax is most objectionable, as it taxes industry in the same man ner and to the same extent as fixed capital ; that it is most oppressive and unconstitutional in its operation, because, in the enforcement of it, large inquisitorial powers must be vested in Boards of Commissioners and their officials, to pry into the private transactions of her Majesty's loyal subjects." The petition was signed by the Chairman on be half of the meeting, and is to be forwarded to Lord 13roughain for presentation to the House of Lords, praying their Lordships not to sanction so unequal, and consequently so unjust, an impost. Copies of the resolutions are to be forwared to Sir Robert Peel, the County M em b ers , an d t& Sir William Clay and Colonel Fox, the Members or the Tower Hamlets, with a request that they wil oppose the proposed in come tax in their places in 1 4 rliament. " TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. wish to ask you one or two questions respecting the proposed income tax, and shall feel grateful if you can reply to them in your valuable journal. Will the partner of a foreign house, who resides here a part of the year, and occupies an office for the mere purpose of purchasing goods for shipment to his own house, be taxed on the profits he may ultimately realise from his share in the results of those ship ments ? If so, the house had better send an agent, for a small salary, here to make their purchases. If this partner is to be taxed on his share of the business he is interested in abroad, how is he to prove the amount of the profits he may have realised, since he generally keeps no books h - ere which can throw any light upon the subject ? Suppose his house has a large trade in the products of other markets, and the profits realized on the dif ferent branches of business cannot be fairly appor tioned to each, is the partner here to be taxed for his income arising from business which has no connexion with England ?

TO MR. PROUT, dit), STRAND, LONDON Luton, Bedfordshire, Oct 19, 1841. Sts,-1 feel desirous of expressing to you the great benefit which 1 have received from ,he use of lair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, I have for several years been allPcted with Rheumatism and Gout, the attacks of which were excessively severe. During one of there pain. ful visitationfa kind friend presented me with a box of Blair's Pills, from the use of which I found immediate relief, and very soon en tirely recovered. At a subsequent period I was so severely attacked that t thought it would be unwise to delay placing myself under me dical care. I did so; but not finding the relief which 1 expected, I again became my own physician. At this time try legs and thighs were swelled to a very great extent. I immediately procured a box of Blair's Pills from Mr. W. Phillips, your agent in this town, and after taking two doses t was free from prin, and the swelling subsided I now never fail to use them whenever I am attacked by this painful maladv, and they invariably give me relief after one or two doses Several of my acquaintances use them, and experience the same i,e netit. I trust you will insert this among your list of cases, as lam anxious to bear witness to the efficacy of this excellent medicine. am, Sir, yours, respectfully, Sugar Loaf, London Road, Luton. it ICHA RD STONE. The never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS in curing every de cription of Gout and Rheumatism, have secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or prevent times. They not only give relief in a few hours, where the patient has be n driven nearly to madness by the excruciating tortures of this disease, but restore to perfect health in an incon. ceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in rheumatism, either ch ronic or acute, lumbago, sciatica, pains in the head or face, and indeed for every rheumatic or gouty affection ; in tact, such has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it, and there is n to city, town, or village in the kingdom, but contains many grateful evidences of its benign influence.

" Life is only life, when blest with H ea lth." T HE finest System of Ethics is to confine with in due bounds, and thus to regulate the Passions, which unrestrained and insubordinate, impetuously destroy those barriers which Religion and Morality have made sacred; to curb, but not annihilate them, appears the lesson of prudence best calculated to limit their effervescence. Every disorganization of the human frame requires great medical knowledge to remedy, and the public welfare is promoted when r ro fessional men (disregarding the suggestions of the envious and inte rested) devote their studies to the treatment of those complaints ge nerated by imprudence and the ebullition of the passions at an un ..uariled moment. The strength of a nation consists in the health of the people;" but it is melanch o l y to reflect on the daily sacrifice to the ignorant and unfeeling empyricism, and to counteract, as far s pciFsible, its further ravages, we offer to suffering humanity the result of our own experience in the various disea es of Debility.

A sum far more than equ a l t o th e value of the Policies is in vested in the public securities, in the names of the Trustees, so as to be at all times available. At the last quinquennial meeting there was added a bonus to the Life Policies equal to twenty-fivo per cent, on the sums paid, and a bonus of five per cent. was added to the Shares in addition to the payment of the annual interest. The quinquennial meeting being only just past, a favourable opportunity now offers for the commencement of new Insu rances; parties now joining will be allowed to participate in the profits at the next division, as if they had been insured for the whole period. For the convenience of parties wishing to assure for a spe cific sum, without a prospective bonus, a new table, at lower rates, has been calculat e d, on w hi c h , as well as on the partici pating scale, ONE-HALF THE PREMIUM MAY RE MAIN ON INTEREST AT FIVE PER CENT. FOR FIVE YEARS, thus enabling a person to assure his life for 1,0001. on the immediate payment of the premium for 5001. only. The following are the annual premiums for the assurance of IQOI., for the whole life, one-half of which may remain for five years by merely paying the interest annually at five per cent., and should the policy become a claim in the interim the amount due will then be deducted : Age 20, without profits £1 13 0 with profits £1 18 30 40 . ........... 214 3 80 4 3 4 For short periods the premiums are considerably lower, and for any ages or contingencies not usually advertised, information may be obtained on a pplication to th e A ctuary or Secretary.

DISTRESS AT GREENOCK. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The baneful effects of Class Legislation and radically wrong and unjust state of society, has at length reduced this hitherto busy and prosperous town to the same wretched and melancholy state in which the other cities and towns of the empire are de scribed to be. Shipowners, manufacturers, and mer chants, have been regularly following one another this some time past, into the gulf of bankruptcy and ruin. Our streets, dock-yards, and work s h o p s , l a t e ly crowded with industrious and well-employed artisans, are now quite deserted, or only echo to the footsteps of those whom want of employment has reduced to heartsickening idleness and poverty. And as this pe riod of the year has ever, hitherto, been the season of general and full employment, the present complete stagnation and gloom is considered the more ominous, and many minds, unsupported by hope, are giving way to gloomy and angry forebodings. I say angry, for want and adversity makes men reason closely and keenly, and it is generally understood and believed that the misgovernment and an unjust state of society is the cause of all these evils. A meeting of the unem ployed was held here on the 25th, and they assembled to the amoutit of between two and three thousand, and they agreed to memorialize the Provost and Magis trates, stating their situation , and soliciting that re lief of some kind might e afforded them. The Provost has promptly responded to the call, and has convened a meeting of the inhabitants to-day, to con sider what is to be done. This is an awful state of things to exist in an em pire, of whom it is boasted that on her dominions the sun never sets—an empire to which the tribes and people of every dime and region of the earth have been taught and accustomed to look up with vene ration and awe—an empire which boasts, and boasts justly, of knowledge and power, capable of increasing, to an unlimited extent, all the comforts and necessa ries of existence. Sir, it requires no great stretch of the reflective powers to perceive that our knowledge and power as a nation is grievously circumscribed and misdirected, and that there is no just or wise distribution of that wealth which we, of the working classes, create in such boundless profusion. Our knowledge of the governing principles and laws of nature, and consequently our power to avoid want, and produce abundance, infinitely transcends, and exceeds all that was ever known in former times and nations ; and yet our forms of Government, and system of society, are as miserable and defective as ever they were. It is, therefore, clear that they are the source of the misery and wretchedness that now exists. Immutable and just principles govern, with un erring precision, the most minute, as well as the most stupendous, of created powers. It is reasonable; there fore, to infer, that the social condition of man is also gcr ,:znued by immutably true and just principles, and that the decay and destruction of all former nations, and our own wretchedness, has been, and is caused by ignorance of, aP4 want of obedience to these laws. The desire of happiness is indestructible in man ; and I believe, that in a just state of society, this all powerful propensity shall be directed to, and find un limited elements of gratification, in advancing and increasing, with all its might, and all its strength, the weal, comfort, and happiness of the whole community. Hitherto that great and good principle, misdirebted by ignorance and folly, has been the bane and de struction of all the communities and nations of the earth. At the present moment, confined to miserably sel fish and grovelling purposes, it is crushing millions into misery . - and the dust, rending asunder all the kindly feelings and sympathies of our nature ; for a man is considered wise and prudent, according as be can steel himself to throw them overboard ;, in a word, the present system of society is a mere selfish scramble, where thousands are trampled under foot, and,alf the ties of nature broken and dissevered, while, 'at the same time, untold wealth—wealth sufficient for all—is wasted and destroyed in the maddening excitement, and insane career of ignorance, selfishness, and folly. Trusting, however ' in the progressive intelligence of our race, I believe that, ere long, error, ignorance and folly, must give place to truth and justice. 1 am, Sir, your most obedient servant, A WORKING MAN.

Yonne, held at Auxerre, a woman aged 30, named Celestine Darlev, was tried a few days ago for the murder of her brother Nicolas. They wore orphans, the father and mother having died, leaving a small property of 15,000 f. to be divided among five children. 'Nicolas was subject to epileptic fits, which had impaired his intellects. Until he should be properly disposed of, iti was agreed that ho should live with his sistei, Celestine. They, however, frequently quarrelled, and Celestine, in October, received a blow on the breast from Nicolas, which left a severe bruise. She, in consequence,' went to a neigh bour demanding an asylum for the ounighot,estal:lieicilig2cto7hntailit: she could no longer live with her brother, and, at the same time, expressing her fears that he would soon be 31 1 a o tiy u ro l t l re c l e . :l f. a t \l'l h r a es t ; 1 she is:Y ' had i 1 ". found found dead from the consequence of one of him fits.

The sister, at length, confessed the crim e, but de clared that it was unpremeditated. She said her b rother had actually fallen out of his bed in a fit, and finding him thus at her mercy, the idea of riddin g her self from him came suddenly into her mind, and she struck him with a mallet. On the trial she repeated her confession, and the Jury found her guilty of the murder without premedita tion, and, at the same time, returned that there were ex tenuating circumstances. The Court sentenced her to hard labour fpr 20 years, old to be exposed on the pigory. »T 7 ,1 TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN 4 Sra,—A Correspondent in your valuable and inde pendent column of the 26th instant (signed " A Constant Reader"), talks of taxing house property— windows, forsooth- , -as one of the items. Now, I should opine from this, that matters to the east of us are not quite so bad as what I have been led to sup pose ; but, with regard to our neighbourhood I can inform your " Constant Read er " th a t at least one fourth of our house-property-men are already in a state of insolvency ; and another of the visitation s he has so disinterestedly and kindly suggested of a hou se duty and an additional duty on windows, will send another' fourth quickly after them. _ _ Rents hereabouts, 'N'ithin these ten or fifteen years, have decreased one-third, and in many instances to one-half—for what is house property after all ? Is it as good as a tradesman's capital, who has an oppor tunity of shifting it about in various ways is—a grocer or an ironmonger, for instance; but not so a house, where it is once put there it must stand; -but let the owner beware how he builds it careful not to admit too many air holes, which may be mis taken for windows; many of us, striving to make our domiciles healthy and comfortable, have, alas! to our cost, now cause to repent of our folly. But what, Mr. Editor, shall we say of such legislation ? Shall we be considered a sane people some two hun dred years hence ? The injustice of such suggestions of your Corres pondent are too flagrant to be thought of. Property, protected by legislation for certain classes, is becoming tyrannical, and many now begin to ask themselves questions about the franchise; and I begin myself to look - with less hostility on the code drawn up of Chartism. The middle class are grinding down to paupers, and without we soon lighten the burden and place it on stronger shoulders, the exhausted, but pa tient - camel, will sink and die. Could not your Cor respondent have resorted to those great balls of wealth which the Corn-laws have assisted to form ? Let them apply the legacy duty to those immense aggre gations of freehold lands, which we see weekly pass ing-from sire to son without a farthing tax, while a poor, industrious tradesman's savings f o r hi s family is mercilessly visited, because, forsooth, it has the bas tard taint of personal attached to it! To be brief, Mr. Editor, I cannot resist this .opportunity of ex pressing my thanks and admiration of your powers in the untiring energy displayed in your liberal, just, and independent columns, with respect to that -ob noxious and suicidal Corn question ; and I am quite certain that it is mainly owing to your enlightened and able remarks, and persevering exertions, that we owe the first step, and I hope it will prove a beneficial one, to the final demolition of this national incubus.

EPSOM SPRING MEETING--YESTERDAY. The unfavourable state of the weather operated as a damper to the lovers of turf amusements, and although holiday time, the assemblage was not numerous. The Stewards; Baron de Tessier and Sir Gilbert lleatheote, were, as usual, zealous in the discharge of their duties. Among others on the Course were Sir W. W. Wynne, Greville, Mr. Gardnor, Capt. Colquitt, Mr. Ives, Mr. Tompson, &c. The sport commenced soon after two o'clock; and the first race was run in a terrific storm, a circumstance which, perhaps, impaired the vi sion of the starter, who gave the word to " go " before Mr. Tompsoll a filly had reached the pest—her owner having made an objection, and the starter having ad mitted the absence of the mare in question, the stewards declared it a false start. On the first occasion, Mr. Scott's Mosque was first, Mr. Higgins's Vigo second, and Mr. Heard's Conjugation third, after a very fine race.

FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS. Dutertre, alias Desrosiers, one of the men com mitted for trial before the Court of Assizes, for the assassination in the Rue d'Arcole, was arraigned, last week, before the Tribunal de Premiere In stance, together with another man named Ausmann, for a robbery in the apartment of M. Lecoq, in the nue du Cherche-Midi. When the President was about to interrogate Dutertre he moved the Court, by Counsel, for a postponement of the hearing until after he had been tried for the capital offence of which he was accused. The Learned Counsel took the same arguments as were used on behalf of Mme. Lafarge, when under similar circumstances. This was opposed by the Advocate, General Thorigny, and the Court decided that the trial then before it should proceed. The prisoners were both found guilty. Dutertre was sentenced to hard labour at the hulks for six years, and Ausmann to close confinement for five years. A gentleman, passing on Saturday along the Rue Montmartre, perceived that an attempt was being made to pick his pocket, but suffered the operation to proceed until the thief's hand had got to the bottom, and was about to extract the handkerchief, but, at the critical moment, the furtive hand was grasped as by a vice, and held until the person to whom it be longed was dragged along to the office of the commis sary of police of the quarter, where he was recognised as an old and notorious practitioner in the same line, who had been at least nine times before in the hands of justice, to which he was again committed. CORONER'S INQUEST.—Tuesday night an inquest was held before Mr. Payne in St. Bartholomew's Hospital, on the body of Thomas Marchant, aged 43, whose death took place under the fOlowing circumstances :—From the evidence it appeared that the deceased, on Saturday, the 12th ult., between eleven and twelve o'clock at night, was at the Three Brewers public-house kept by Mr. Tullett, in the Lower-road, Islington, in a state of liquor, and wanting to fight. Mr. Tullett said, "If yOu want to fight, fight me." A person named Ramshaw came out of the parlour and took the challenge, saying to deceased, "I'll give you the first slap in the face for a pot of beer, and fight you afterwards." The deceased immediately struck Rainshaw, and a fight ensued. Three rounds were fought in front of the bar, when Mr. Tullett came and took the de ceased out ; he resisted, and a struggle took place it the street ; both fell, deceased's right leg being broke?. by the fall. He was taken to a surgeon's, and from thence removed to the hospital. Mr. 11. M. Draper, house-surgeon, said deceased was suffering from a, simple fracture of the right leg ; everything was done for him ; he died on Sunday. The cause of death was suffocation, unconnected with the injury to the leg. On the above morning he ate a hearty breakfast, and immediately ex pired. On a postmortem examination, he found particles of an egg, and about three drachms of tea which he had t a ken, in the lungs, thereby stopping respiration. The Coroner having remarked on the singular termination to the inquiry, the Jury returned a verdict of "Acci dental death from suffocation." The following extraordinary scene took place, says the Journal de la SOmme, a few days ago, in the hurch of one of the communes of the department, during the performance of high mass. At one of the most solemn party of the service, a man of wild and sinister counte nance, mounted on a large horse, and carrying a fork in his hand; entered at full trot, and rode np to the attar, Overturning several chairs and many of the c ongregat, m alarm. On reaching the steps of the .and throwing the whole into the utmost astoni shment stumbled, but the rider recovered him with_ih e n he was se choi p r e , r. the ect h co or o s l e . ness, and was proceeding in his car eer cured, taken out, and brought before theim a istrate,.w h g soon ascertained that he was a lunatic, and committeu hial to safe keeping. dE *-'‘ 4 - . .;' -e 1: , 7 , ~ C , ... - \". - ' -*., 4,71r f. \ \s; Z l i ; _ . ~..:_,,,,,, ).. - .1.1 tY . ... — ... -.."....4.itc.
