In the week ending last Saturday the deaths re gistered in the metropolitan districts were 893, a number wbich shows an excess of 56 on the return of the previous week, but a reduction of 269 on the corrected average of five autumns. If the present return be compared with that made in the same week of each of the years 1840 8, it will be found that, with but one exception (in 1841, when the deaths were 841), the mortality ranged formerly from 910 to 1,165, and therefore was considerably higher than in last week, though the popula tion in those years was less. The increase of 56 now observed on the week ending No vember 3 partly arises from pneumonia and bron chitis, the deaths from which become more numerous as the winter advances, having been 104 in the previous week, 127 in the last. The total number of deaths from cholera in the week was only six (five less than in the previous week); in the same week of 1848 there were 62. The steady decline of diarrhea and dysentery is shown by the numbers of the last five weeks, which were respectively 105, 63, 51,40, and 29. A boy died of diarrhea in Peterborough row, Fulham, whose father had been car r i e d o ff by cholera in September ; a boy of the same disease at l3rudenell-place, New North-road, from an unwhole some condition of the house ; and a girl at Maidstone place, in the house in which a death from cholera, reported in the former week, occurred, and in a locality then described as " low and ill-drained." Of th e s i x deaths from cholera, one occnrred in Water-lane, Ho merton ; one at Weatherhead-g ardens (Hackney-road), a place low, u n d ra i ned and drenched by waste water ; one in Christchu rc h , S t . Saviour's ; •one at Drummond road, St. James's, Bermondsey one in Walwortb, and one in Lambeth. A death occurred a fromapoplexy, on curr w ,,i c h an inquest was held,in Huntingdon street, lloxton. The deceased was a woman under an of 65, a who for the last four years had lived ground cellar, which is only 11 feet in length, 8 feet 6 inches in width, 5 feet 9 inches in height, and sunk 5 feet 7 inches below the surface of the street! A small window scarce gives light or ventilation, an d " the walls," says the registrar, " are so damp that you might brush the water from them." The mean daily reading of the barometer was above 30 inches on the last three days of the week. The mean of the week was 29-732. The temperature on the last three days was considerably higher than the average of the same days in seven years. The mean of the week was 50.2 degrees, which is higher than the average by 4.1.

BODY FOUND AT CLAYGATE, NEAR E SHER .—O n , , • f• BODY FOUND ♦_ CLAYGATE, NEAR ESHER.—On Monday afternoon, in consequence of information reach ing Wandsworth, of the discovery of the body of a man supposed to be murdered, in a pond at Claygate, a lonely place near Esher, and the description coinciding with that of a man named Frederick Phipps, who had been missing from Wandsworth since Friday last, Mrs. Phipps, the mother of that individual, proceeded to Claygate, and identified the body as that of her SOH, who was potman to Mrs. Sumner, the Ram Inn, Wandsworth. Deceased left that house on Friday morning, and from that time was never seen alive. His absence creating suspicion, inquiries were made by Mrs. Sumner amongst her customers, and it was found that several whom he had debited with rather large amounts owed little or nothing. Fer some time past the deceased, who had always been considered a faithful servant, had drank very freely, and shown at times symptoms of insanity. He had given out that he had come into some money, and he was going to open a greengrocer's shop. The deceased, who was 35 years of age, ,is supposed to have pawned his watch and chain on his departure from Wandsworth to supply himself with money, and it is believed that having spent it, and fearing punishment after the detection of his de linquencies, he determined on self-destruction. ALLEGED DEATH FROM IMPURE VACCINE LYMPH. —Tuesday forenoon an inquest was resumed for the third time, and concluded before Mr. T. Wakley, M.P., the coroner, at the Vineyard House, Vineyard-walk, Clerkenwell, touching the death of an infant named Rosina Elizabeth Pilcher, aged four months, who was alleged to have died from the effects of impure lymph. The jury returned a verdict—" That the deceased died from erysipelatous inflammation, which had been pro duced by a puncture on the left arm for vaccination, and they were of opinion that there was a want of sufficient care on the part of the operator."

DREADFUL FIRE AT CIRENCESTER.—An alarm ing conflagration took place at about a quarter before six o'clock this morning at Cirencester, on premises occupied by Mr. Daniel Thomas, hatter, Cricklade street, and which could not be subdued until after the entire stock had been destroyed. Both Mr. Thomas and his wife were severely burnt, and, in consequence of the fierceness with which the flames raged, narrowly escaped with their lives. The disaster appears to have aris4n from a spark falling from a candle upon some paper while Mr. Thomas was packing up a quantity of goods for Fairford fair. We understand that the stock was insured.—Cheltenham Journal of Tuesday. YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN Assocuatorr.—On Tues day evening the Rev. Hugh Stowell delivered the first of a series of lectures to the members of the above associa tion, in the large room at Exeter-hall. The subject selected by the Rev. Gentleman was. according to the bills, " th e Bibl e self-evidential, " a plirase which means, we apprehend, that the holy volume authenticates itself. For upwards o f an hour and a half Mr. Stowell, in his usual animated and energetic style, enlarged on the principal doctrin es o f Christianity, arguing ' tha t f rom their nature man never cou ld have imarined or devised them. In the more forcible passages of his lecture his audience frequently paid him the tribute of loud cheer ing and applause, which alone secularized the character of the meeting. The room was crowded to excess-- floor, platform, and galleries—by a highly respectable body of men and women, who heard Mr. Stowell with great attention throughout his long and eloquent ad dress. EAST AND WEST INDIA DOCKS AND NORTH WESTERN JUNCTION.—There were no fewer than 44 tenders sent in for the formation of this company's line lying between the Lea-cut Canal and Blackwall, and the "difference between the highea land the lowest tender was no less than 16,0001, THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 15, 1849 ROMAN REMAINS AT CHELMS- FORD. (From the Chelmsford Chronicle.) The discovery of Roman remains in the immediate vicinity of Chelmsford, where they have lain slumber ing some three feet deep, unmolested and undisturbed for ages, and the fact now established, that the masters of the world once had their habitations near where we have pitched our own, has given a general interest in the neighbourhood to antiquarian researches which they did not before possess, and we need now make no apology for introducing an extract upon the subject from the new part of Mr. C. Roach Smith's " Collectanea Antigua," which contains an admirable descriptive article upon the Roman villa at I - 1 artlip in Kent. This zealous antiquarian has profusely inter spersed his paper with engravings of the remains dis covered, which form in themselves a rich collection of the relics of old ; and on placing some of these plates side by side with the articles found in Moul sham, there can be no doubt the building was of the same character, and erected by the same race of people., as that in Kent. One of the tiles, for in • stance, is of the exact pattern, and would almost appear to be formed in the same mould, and the pieces of fresco from the walls are of precisely similar cha racter and colour. With this fact before us, we may hope that further explorations, as at Hartlip, may turn up something more valuable as objects of art than mere fragments of walls, for, as Mr. Roach Smith observes— "It often happens that Roman villas furnish more curious and instructive information in the fragments of art scattered about their sites, than in the archi tectural details,.which are only seen here and there, more or less injured and imperfect. Many objects which in their day were among the most common and diiregarded survive the wreck of the buildings in which they occupied the humblest place; or, it may have been, that the remains we now collect and study with so much avidity had been dismissed to the receptacle of refuse long before the destruction of the villas in which they had done service." On the general subject of these remains the writer remarks— " The Roman villas which have been discovered in our country comprise a series alike numerous, varied, and interesting; for under the term villa' it has been usual to include all buildings of a domestic character, whether adapted by their extent and magnificence for the residence of governors of the province of Britain and its sub-divisions, or whether their more limited bounds and humbler appointments indicate connexion with the middle and lower classes of society. Scarcely a year passes but the plough or spade discloses the remains of walls and floors of Roman dwelling-houses, often in unsuspected locali ties remote from modern abodes, under ground which for many centuries has been tilled by the husband man, beneath pastures on which countless generations have grazed their herds and flocks, and even in the midst of woods which, time out of mind, have stolen upon and flourished over the deserted sites of the habitations of man. The peasant wonders at the unlooked for discovery, and the scientific inquirer is often perplexed to account for the changes which have thus taken place in the surface of the earth, until he considers and reflects how the silent and slow operations of nature through successive ages, uncontrolled by the hand of man, entomb the works of art, and cover their ruins with rich corn fields and fertile pasturage. " Having comprehended the processes by which nature in her vast laboratory works these changes, we are led to reflect on the causes which induced the destruction of the buildings and the abandonment of their sites, the epoch to which we may refer them, while at the same time we survey the numerous peculiarities of the remains which have survived the shocks of time, and in them read instruction in the arts, habits, and customs of those who so long before we were called into being, possessed the soil of which we in our turn hold fleeting tenure. Such are among the highest ends and aims of the study of antiquity. Thus applied, the pursuit is not merely a harmless amusement or an agreeable recreation, it assumes the ennobling character of a science which expands and elevates the:mind, weans us from a too intense devotion to the concerns of the time present, and by bringing forcibly before our perception and understanding the various works of the past, enables us to form a more correct estimate of ourselves, of our advancement or retrogression ; we study history by the aid of a new light; and by the contemplation and analysis of ob jects through the slow but sure process of compari son, are often enabled to test the authenticity of an cient writers, and confirm or disprove, as it may be, their statements and opinions. It is not, however, always that the antiquary can immediately render the results of his researches available to science; his search after truth is beset with difficulties of all kinds ; the facts he collects do not often come to hand clear and palpable, but are usually gathered with labour, isolated, or mingled with anomalies which experience alone will teach him how to understand and explain, and be must possess a certain intuitive power of perception and classification, to discern and arrange objects with all the circumstances under which they are presented to him. From the accumulation of facts, each perhaps in itself of trivial import, the antiquary forms his chain of evidence, and deduces conclusions which reveal to him various phases of so ciety in past times, recalling men and manners in a true picture as they really were ; he reads them in the works of their hands, as he peruses their acts written by the pen of history, the one illustrating the other; and thus he obtains a clearer insight into former ages, viewed through the double medium of tangible monuments and the recorded narratives of the historian." SERIOUS AFFRAY with POACHERS. On Thursday evening a serious encounter took place between three poachers and the gamekeepers on the estate of Edward Riddell, Esq., Cheeseburn Grange, by which that gentleman, his gamekeeper, and two of the poachers, were seriously wounded. It appAred that John Rodham, the gamekeeper, having heard the report of air- guns in the game preserves, about twelve o'clock on the above evening, collected together a number of men, and being accompanied by Mr. Riddell, they proceeded in quest of the depredators. In order to intercept the poachers the party divided, and in a short time the gamekeeper and his party, including Mr. Riddell, came upon three men armed in the Bog Plantation. On approaching them, one of the poachers knocked down .Mr. Riddell with the muzzle of his gun, upon which the gamekeeper went forward, when the man who assaulted Mr. Riddell cocked his gun, saying at the same time—" You b r, I'll blow your brains out if you stir another foot." The game• keeper answered him—" I have got a gun as well as you," and immediately made towards him, when be also was knocked down, and while lying on the ground received a severe blow upon his arm. Mr. Riddell by this time had recovered himself, and, assisted by his butler, attempted to seize the man, when both of them were knocked down. At this period the other party came up to their assistance, and, headed by Mr. Riddell, they closed in upon the poachers, and while that gentleman was grappling with one of them, a brace of pistols which he carried went off, the contents of one wounding the man. One of the poachers observing his comrade fall, deliberately levelled his gun, fired-at Mr. Riddell, and wounded him in both legs, near the ankle. The gamekeeper then, in defence of his master, fired at the poacher, and brought him down by wounding him in the left thigh, by which the strife was ended in the poachers being overpowered. Mr. Riddell was im mediately conveyed home, and cn Sir John Fife being sent for, it was found that though both legs are much lacerated, nothing serious is apprehended. The poacher who was wounded by the gamekeeper, was conveyed to the New castle Infirmary, and though seriously hurt, hopes are entertained of his recovery ; and as to the other wounded man, it was found that he was but slightly injured, and he, as well as his confederate, were taken to prison. The name of the poacher in the: infirmary is Alexander Clouton, and the other two David Ridley and William Ramshaw ; the two former were quarrymen at Harley Hill, and the latter a painter in Newcastle. They have been remanded until Mr. Riddell is so far recovered as to appear against them.—Berwick Advertiser. A FATHER STABBED BY His SON.—A circum stance of a deeply tragical and almost unparalleled rm• ture took place on the sth instant, at Holmer-green, in the parish of Great Missenden. The following are the facts which led to the fearful catastrophe :—The unfor tunate sufferer, whose name is James Broon, a carpenter by trade, and who also keeps a beer-shop at Holnaer green, was, on the evening named, employed in looking after his house during the temporary absence of his wife, who had gone to Amenham. On her return home an altercation took place, and words were followed by blows, until an open rupture ensued. Their son, scarcely twelve years of age, interfered on behalf of his mother, and declared that he would stab his father upon a repetition of his violent conduct. The strife was an. fortunately renewed, and the boy, with(mt a moment'sin tice, plunged a knife into his lather's side, inflicting a wound of the most horrible nature. Consternation ge'zed the whole of the persons present, and medical as sistance was procured as soon as possible ; but, notwith standing the most prompt and timely aid was afforded the greatest apprehension is entertained for the poor man's recovery ; indeed, 'rem the testimony of the me dical gentleman under whose care the suffering man now lies, the case appears hopeless. The wound has been pronounced mortal. _ _ DANGERS OF THE WOODS.—One day, when old Knapp was looking for " a stick of timber" in the woods, he espied (ne et his dogs running towards him, seem ingly in a fright: presently a large wolf appeared in chase; Knapp stepped at once behind a tree., and as the monster, "gaunt and grim," passed, he, with a dexterous blow of his tomahawk, disabled it in the loins, and then carried home its skin.—,Sir J. Alexander's " ticadie." LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, A'Gv. 14. CHRIST'S HOSPITAL V. GRAINGER. The Lord Chancellor gave judgment in this case this morning, which came before him on appeal from the judgment of the Vice Chancellor of England. The brief facts of the case set forth in the bill were to the following effect, namely, that, in December, 1624, John Kenrick by will gave and bequeathed to the mayor and burgesses of the town of Reading the sum of 7,5001. upon trust, that they should purchase lands of the clear value of 501. by the year, which sum should be paid unto the testator's sister during her life, and after her death to the overseers of the poor, to be bestowed and distributed to the poor of Reading in manner provided for in the will. Ile further directed that, if these should be misapplied for the space of one year, the whole legacy should be paid over to Christ's Hospital. In the year 1639 a decree was made by the Court of Exchequer, giving directions about the charity ; but the corporation had not employed the bequests as ordered by the viii, or by the decree, for many y ears . It appeared that, under the new Municipal Corporations Act, new trustees had been appointed, and that in the year 1842 the present bill had been filed by Christ's Hospital. Ilk LORDSHIP, in giving judgment, said, that the present appeal had been made by the Attorney- General as a defendant in the case. A decree had been made by the Court of Exchequer, in 1639, to the effect that if the Corporation of Reading should neglect to perform the decree, or should misapply the trust property, and that such neglect or mis-employ ment should continue for one year, the legacy should be void, and of no effect as to Reading, and the property should be forthwith transferred to the Cor poration of London, for the benefit of Christ's Hospital. That the directions in the decree, as well as those in the will, had been neglected and unper formed for more than a year, was a fact which was clearly established, and not in dispute. Upon these facts the Corporation of London had filed their bill, to recover that property for Christ's Hospital, and the Vice-Chancellor had made his decree in flyour of the claim of the Corporation of London. His Lordship said he could not avoid alluding to the fact, that the Attorney-General had not taken any part in the dis cussion on the hearing of the bill, and such being the case, he could not approve of any party coming for ward, after a decree which he did not oppose, toask for a rehearing for the purpose of re-opening the discus sion. The rule was, however, not strictly applied in cases of charities, and the Court would not, upon such an object, refuse to re hear such a case as the Attorney-General had to make, and that led him to a consideration of the case which the Attorney- General had made on the rehearing. Now the Attorney-General had contended that the bill ought to have been dismissed, although the decree of the Court of Exchequer had not been attended to, and the directions in the will had been neglected, and he argued that nevertheless the town of Reading should continue in the enjoyment of the property. Such, in point of form, was what the Attorney-General had contended for, although it could not be his real object, but finding the decree of the Vice-Chancellor shut out the case which he had intended to make upon infor mation, he took that step to remove the impediment out of the way, in order that he might now raise the whole case, which might, and which ought to have been, brought forward by the cause and information having been heard together. Although on that point the Court had a right to complain, it would not on that ground decline giving an opinion on that point, which had been now raised for the first time by the Attorney- General. After alluding to the fact that the property was a gift of the Corporation of Reading, fur certain charitable trusts, with a proviso that in a certain event the bequest should cease and be transferred to another corporation, for other charitable trusts, and that such event had happened; he then went into a considera tion of the cases which had been cited in the course of the argument. It had been said, he observed, among other things, that the bequest was void, as contrary to the rules of perpetuity ; but these rules, he would observe, were intended to apply to cases for the purpose of preventing property being unalienable beyond certain periods. The next argument was, that the forfeiture created by the will was destroyed by the decree, and that the forfeiture created by the decree was inoperative, being beyond the jurisdiction of the Court ; but that argument his Lordship thought was not at all consistent. Upon the whole his Lordship was of opinion that the Attorney-General could not sustain the case he had brought forward in that re-hearing, and that the decree of the Vice- Chancellor must therefore be affirmed.—Affirmed accordingly. His Lordship then proeeeded with the unopposed lunatic petitions. IN RE DYCE SOMBRE (LUNACY). Mr. ROLT presented a petition on behalf of Mr. Shadwell, the solicitor, for payment of the costs in curred by him in prosecuting the two last petitions by Mr. Dyce Sombre to supersede the commission of lunacy against him. In the first petition it will be recollected that his Lordship ordered Mr. Dyce Sombre to undergo an examination by several medical gentlemen ; and the second petition sought to set aside the commission, notwithstanding the report of the medical men was adverse to Mr. llyce Sombre. Mr. J. PARKER said he appeared for two of the next of kin, and did not oppose the application. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he would give the petitioner the costs of the first petition, but not of the last one. It was no ground for the payment of costs to a solicitor, that he had been employed by a lunatic —a lunatic found by commission, and one whom he (the Lord Chancellor) still held to be a lunatic; the more so as it appeared that other parties had moved in the affair, to whom the solicitor might look for payment. Ordered accordingly. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Thomas Cheslett, of No. 11, George•street, Man sion-house, was brought up for further examination, charged with obtaining goods and money by means of a forged order and cheque. The prisoner had been remanded at the request of Henry Webb, the officer, in consequence of finding on him a number of other forged orders. A card was also found on him, from which it appeared that he was carrying on business under the title of Burge, Cheslett, and Co., commission and general agents, of No. 4, Skinner's-place, Sise-lane, Bucklersbury, and when Webb called there he found property of every description on the premises. Webb now said that when he apprehended the pri soner he asked him if he had a cheque-book, and he replied that he had not, but on searching his lodgings in George-street, Mansion-house, the book produced was found in a drawer in the bed• room belonging to the prisoner, and the cheque produced corresponded with the counterfoil. Mr. Robert Frederick Priest, a clerk from Messrs. Rogers and Co., the bankers, said the book had been issued to a Mr. C. M. King in the year 1840, but he had not been a customer for a long time. They had no customers of the names of either Henry or Edward Howell, by whom the cheque produced purported to be drawn. Mr. Charles Edminston, of 91 and 93, Grace church street, tailor and outfitter, said that the order for the goods as well as the body of the cheque, were in the prisoner's handwriting; but he would not swear to the signature at the botom of the latter, for it was evidently written in a disguised hand. Alderman GlBBs—Did you ever see the prisoner write ? Mr. Edwinston—l have many times, as the prisoner lived with me several years. Mr. Thwaites, of High-street, in the Borough, draper, stated that one of his assistants received a similar order for 3i yards of black cloth, which was to be of the best description and about 11s. 6d. per yard. The party calling was a young man, and he presented a cheque :dated Ist November for 61. 10s., and signed Henry Howell. The cloth and balance were given, but on the cheque being presented it was returned, as there was " no account." Alderman GIBBS asked the prisoner what answer he had to make to the present charges. Cheslett replied that he had a sufficient nnswer, but as he understood there was snore to be said against him, he would rather reserve what he had to say until he heard all the charges. Mr. Thomas Speneer, of 116, Fenchurch-street, waterproof - cloth-manufacturer, said that the prisoner obtained from him some waterproof cloth, to the amount of 161., under the following circumstances : A short time back the prisoner called and said that he was a partner in the firm of Burge, Cheslett, and Co., of Sise-lane, and they wished to ship some goods, at the same time exhibiting a list to the amount of 601, and he also wished for samples. Witness replied that their custom of doing business was to take one half the value of the goods at the time, and the remainder on completing the shipment; upon which Cheslett rejoined that his partner was a man of great property, but very eccentric, having been once bitten by payinr , half the amount and never receiving the balance of goods, since which he had determined never to pay until all had been delivered. Witness then asked for a refer ence, and the prisoner gave the name of a Mr. Amos, living in the Dover road. On calling on that person he said that he did not like to give answers w hen there was no permission given to refer to him, but that he had heard and believed the pri soner had got a meneyed partner. This lulled his suspicions, but shortly after he demanded the samples back,. as on making further inquiries he came to the conclusion that no such person as Mr. Burge existed in the firm. Mr. Burge, jun., here came forward and said, that in consequence of what had appeared in the news papers, he was directed by his father to call and state that, although his parent had entertained a proposal of partnership, he eventually declined carrying it out, and_was exceedingly surprised, from the reports he had read, that the prisoner had taken such an unwar rantable liberty to use his name. Alderman GIBBS asked Mr. Burge if his father had ever signed any paper or agreement, giving the pri soner a pretext for calling him a partner? Mr. Burge, jun., said that he had signed none whatever. Alderman GIBI3S—Then in that case he got the goods under a false pretence. Mr. Benjamin Jacobs, of 34, Union-street, Bish opsgate, tailor, said in August last the prisoner called at his shop, and said that ha had got a rich partner, but was short of money himself. He wished to have a suit of clothes, for which he promised to pay in six weeks, and the clothes which he was supplied with were those he then stood at the bar in. Alderman GIBBS said, that according to Mr. Ja cobs' account, credit had been given, but he (the Alderman), would consider whether the representa tion that he had a rich partner would come under the denomination of obtaining goods under false pretences. Did the prisoner object to being remanded until Saturday ? The prisoner replied, that he would rather be remanded until Wednesday, and that would better enable him to rebut the greater part of the charges against him. Alderman GIBB 4 ultimately remanded him until Saturday, remarking that, if it was necessary, a further remand would take place. 111A1?LBOROUGH-STREET. The female named Wetherell, who for some time passed herself off as the Countess of Carlisle elect, and who imposed on various tradesmen by the assertion that she was about to be married to the Earl of Car lisle, who had given unlimited power to her to order a suitable wedding outfit, came into court to ask the magistrate to get her some property which she alleged her former landlady illegally detained from her. The applicant, it will be recollected, was supposed to be of unsound mind, from the circumstance of her styling herself in her literary productions " the last descendant of the Bruce," and her eccentric behaviour at Buck ingham Palace ; and this induced the magistrate, in stead of committing her for trial when brought in custody to this court, to send her to St. Martin's parish, there to have a medical opinion as to the state of her intellects. It is presumed that the medical gentlemen have considered that her mental faculties are sufficiently sound to warrant her being again set at large. Mr. HARDWICK, who heard her application, said he could not do anything in the matter, as he was not the magistrate who heard the original charge. Smith, the principal usher, told the applicant to come next Monday, when Mr. Bingham, the other magis trate, would be on duty. The applicant said she was fearful she could not come that day, as she had taken her passage to Aus tralia, and was doubtful about the time the vessel would sail. The applicant, who appeared to have totally for gotten her old story of being the Countess of Carlisle, then left the court. THE CASE OF MRS. GEORGE.--A gentleman handed to the magistrate 6/. 55., being the amount of a collec tion from the brethren of St. Andrew's Lodge, No, 269, for Mrs. George, the female with her two children deserted by Mr. Crouch, the vocalist. SOUTHWARK.. A young man of rather fashionable exterior end of gentlemanly address, named James Dick, whose relatives are stated to reside at Hull, was placed at the bar before Mr. a'Beckett for further examination, charged with defrauding a vast number of hotel-keepers and publicans in the metropolis of refreshments and money by means of false cheques. About twenty publicans were in attendance to identify the prisoner, besides a vast number of trades men who had experienced losses by such a character. Mr. Jones, the landlord of the White Lion, Tooley street, said the prisoner entered his house between six and seven in the evening of Thursday week. He said that he,had just come from Brighton togo on with slaw-suit, and that he:should want to be accommodated with a bed for a week or ten days. He had no luggage with him, but stated that it would be sent to him. A bed was provided for the " gentleman," and he was supplied with a hearty supper and plenty of liquids on that evening. On the following morning he had some spirits in bed, and when he descended witness asked him about the payment of his score. Prisoner replied that he had no loose cash, but that he would give him a cheque on his bankers at Brighton, which he could get cashed on the following morning. He then gave witness a cheque on the Brighton Branch of the Lon • don and County Bank for 31. 2s. ; and on the faith of that he supplied him with more refreshments. Wit ness afterwards had some suspicion about the cheque, and knowing one of the railway guards, he got him to present it at the banker's in the morning. The prisoner, not being aware of his intention, remained at the house all day eating and drinking like an alderman, and while he was eating his supper the railway guard entered the coffee- room and informed witness that the cheque was dishonoured, inasmuch as there were "no effects." Being satisfied that he had to do with a regular victimizer, he called in a police man and gave him into custody. The prisoner told him he was a man of great property, and that he was a hop-merchant. Mr. John Denison, Czar's Head, Great Tower street, City, said the prisoner came to his house on the evening of the 14th of October, and asked to be accommodated with a bed for a week or ten days. Witness, after consulting with his wife, agreed to let him a sleeping apartment, on condition that he paid for everything as he ordered it. After the prisoner had been in the house a few hours, he found he had run up a score ; consequently he went to him, and spoke to him about it. The prisoner called him on one side, and informed him "that he had come from the country on the previous day, and foolishly went to the theatre, where he was robbed of ten sovereigns, all the money he was possessed of. He, however, would pay him in a day or two." The prisoner, with the greatest nonchalance, pulled from his side pocket a cheque-book and a banker's--book. He wrote him a cheque for 11. 10s. on the Brighton Bank, and handed it to him in payment of what he might require. The prisoner also showed him his banker's. book, which made it appear that he had 1301. in his favour in the banker's hands. Mr. A'BECKETT—Did you supply him with goods on the faith of the cheque ? witness—l did, Sir. More especially after he showed me the banker's book. Police-constable 145 Al produced the latter, and on examination the date of the deposits had been altered from 1846 to 1849. He understood the prisoner bad kept an account there in 1846. _ _ Mr. Scales, manager to Mr. Ford, the landlord of the Bell Tavern, Old Bailey, said, the prisoner paid him a visit on the 30th of October, and asked to be accommodated with a bed. Believing him to be a respectable person his wishes were complied with, and on the next morning he sent for some rum to his bed room. Such conduct roused his suspicion, and he asked the prisoner for a settlement of his account, when he gave witness a cheque on the Brighton Bank for 31. as security for the payment. Witness sent it to Brighton, but before he had a reply the prisoner "hooked it."—(Laughter.) He also showed witness his banker's book, and on the faith of that he feasted on the best the house afforded. Mr. Gardiner, the landlord of the Union Tavern, Union-street, Blackfriars, said the prisoner visited him on the 6th of October, and victimized him out of property in a similar way, by giving him a cheque on the Brighton Bank, on prcsenting which it turned out that there were no effects. Mr. ATECKETT —I am afraid rcan't take cogiizlnce of your case, as you live in the City. Prisoner here exclaimed that Mr. Gardiner held property of his worth 5/. - Mr. Gardiner—All I have are two carpet-bags, containing rags and rubbish not worth a farthing. Mr. A'I3ECKETT—Are there any more cases com mitted in Surrey ? Police constable—Mr. Harris, of the Nag's H ea d, i n th e B oroug h , h as b een v i ct imized out of 4/. 10s. in the same way by the prisoner, but he was not able to attend to-day. Mr. 'Watson, the landlord of the Barley-mow Hotel, Salisbury -court, Fleet. street, stepped forward and informed th e m a gistrate he had been a victim to a great extent, but he took no cheque of the prisoner. He represented to him that he was worth consider able property in Hull, and thatin a few days his wife and father would come up to London arid join him. After getting considerably into his debt he bolted, but witness followed him up, and detected him in another swindling transaction, when he was brought up at that court, but discharged, owing to the absence of the principal prosecutor. A number of other publicans came forward from the Middlesex side of the water, when the magistrate said he should remand the prisoner until Monday, as he had no doubt many others would come forward from the Surrey side to prosecute him. The prisoner was accordingly remanded until Monday next. ACCIDENT TO THE CHINESE EXHIBITION.—We regret to report that a serious accident occurred to this celebrated exhibition on its passage northwards to Edinburgh from this town by the North British Rail way, on Saturday morning last. When the train, which consisted of fifteen large carriages, with a truck between each, had arrived at Flemington, only a few miles north of this town, the foremost carriage came violently- in collision with one of the bridges, breaki ng i t and the succeeding carriage and their contents in pieces. It is stated that the damage dune is very considerable —amounting to 1,5001. or 2,000/., but we should think this sum is somewhat over-stated. The train, on Saturday, proceeded as far as Rest on where it remained during Sunday. The journey was resumed on Monday, and by the evening the train reached Dunbar, which it left early on Tuesday morn. ing, and arrived in safety at St. Margaret's station, Edinburgh, in the afternoon. The passage of the train below the bridges was generally effected by the temporary alter ition of the rails, so as to enable it to attain the centre of the arch. From the breadth of the vans the platforms at almost every station had to be removed, but scarcely any delay was occasioned to the ordinary trains on the line. The horse-bores, . luggage van s , an d ot h er carriages formed separEtte train,--,Berwi c k Warder. I THE COUNTRY MARKETS. ti BIR3IINGHAM, Nov. 14.--At Gloucester and Wor cester markets, en the 10th, wheat firmly maintained the currency of that clay be'unight, with a languid sale.

BATHS AND WASH -HOUSES, ST. PANCRAS.-01/ Monday, pursuant to public announcement, a meeting of the ratepayers of St. Peueras, convened by the vestry, took place at the new Vestry Rooms, for the purpose of considering the propriety of adopting the Baths and Wash-houses Act, 9th and 10:h Victoria, cap. 74. The R.v. Thomas Dale, the vicar, presided. Mr. Church warden Healey moved, " ihat the Act of 9th and 10th Victoria, for the encouragement ot baths and wash houses, be adopted," w hi c h was seconded by Mr. Church warden Fraser. Mr. Brettingham moved an amendment to the effect " that in the present state of the parish finances it is not expedient to mortgage the rates for the purpose of establishing baths and wash-houses till the parish have unquestionab:e evidence of the safe work ing of the system in other pal ishes. That in the opinion of the meeting, the most effectual relief to the people of England, in a moral, social, and sanitary point of view, would be a remission of the soap and window duties-- taxes essentially war taxes, and which have been con tinued during the longest peace on record, to the great injury of the health and morality of the people." Mr. Ivo seconded the amendment. The Rev. Chairman refused to put the latter part of the amendment, and Mr. Brettingham withdrew it. The Rev. Mr. Hamilton, Mr. Dyke, Mr. Clarke, Mr. Darlington, and the Rev. D. Laing having spoken, th e quest i on was put, and th e amenment declared to be carried. A division took place, when there appeared for the amendment eighty nine, for the proposal seventy; majority for rejecting the proposal nineteen. After thanks to the chairman the meeting separated. CAUTION TO LODGING-HOUSE KEEPERS •ND OTHERS.—On Thursday evening last, a man of some what respectable exterior, and apparently a mechanic of the better sort, engaged a bed at a coffee-house in the neighbourhood ot Brompton, and next morning de camped, taking with him the sheets from off the bed on which he slept, as well as a pair of boots belonging to a lodger in an adjoining apartment.
