General Oudinot was present, and gave precise details relative to his conference with the rope, which may serve to smooth down many difficulties." The regiments now forming the garrison of Paris, with the exception of the 24th of the line, have re ceived orders to hold themselves in readiness to leave after the general inspection. They will be replaced by those now quartered on the forts and environs of Paris. This change is totally unconnected with political considerations, and has reference only to arrangements for the health of the troops. Sir Moses Montefiore and Lady Montefiore, accom panied by Colonel Gawler, have just passed through Paris on their return from a tour in the Holy Land. The Assembled Nationale saya :—" The Red party resume courage in the midst of the dissensions of the moderate party. A new journal patronised and sup plied with funds by sixty Montagnards, and which will bear the title of Moniteur de la Montagne, is announced to appear on the sth October. M. Ledru Rollin will be one of its most ardent supporters. On the other hand, M. Marrast will also publish a daily journal, which will be the organ of the Cavaignac party." JOINT-STOCK BANKS.

DEANS, Registrar of Bank Returns. Inlairgi Auntie, Somerset ,Souse, Sept, 8, 1049, ACCIDENT ON THE MERSEY. On Monday the adjourned inquest was resumed at Liverpool on the body of Edward Wilson, sen., who, together with his grandson of the same name, was recently drowned in the river, near Woodside, by his fishing-boat coming into collision with the Birkenhead ferry steamer Fanny. Some preliminary inquiry had taken place on Thursday, but the principal evidence was taken on the present occasion. • • Mr. Charles G. Morris said he was on board of the Fanny at the time. He did not see the captain or mate on board. When about half way between Monks Ferry and Woodside, he saw a small boat on the river, about 150 yards off. When the boat got within about 10 yards of the steamer, he saw two par ties in it, and they shouted out, " Ahoy, there !" A seaman saw her and shouted to the man Brisbane at the helm to stop her. Witness seeing the mast of the small boat touch the side of the steamer, ran to the engine-room and shouted, " Stop her." The en gineer was at the other side of the engine -room, and asked, "What's the matter ?" Witness told him they were running down a small boat. He lost sight of the boat, but saw two men in the water. The steamer was stopped after the crash. William Garnett, captain of the steamer, after being cautioned, said the hands on board were six—includ ing himself, a mate, a fireman, two seamen, and an engineer. This was an efficient crew for the steamer, which was 45-horse power, with a steeple engine, more difficult to start and stop than the ordinary kind. The only signal the steamer had for starting was the ringing of a bell. Witness was not on board at the time, as the crew had a rule amongst them selves that one man should be let off at eight at night, and should join the boat at eight in the morning. The man he had let off the night laefore was the mate. He did not think three men a sufficient crew for such a boat. The engineer frequently attended both to the fire and the engine. This was a general rule among the boats. The mate ought to have been there that morning. There ought to be at least four hands on board, but three might take such a boat across with safety. If the engineer were below firing he could not stop or reverse the engines. *The steam-boat might go about 400 or 500 yards in two minutes in slack tide, Mr. Topping, on the part of the corporation, stated that that body had granted to the widow of the de ceased an annuity of 12s. per week, in consideration of her bereavement. The CORONER carefully summed up, pointing out the points of law involved in the case. The jury retired, and,. after considerable delibera tion, returned a verdict of " Manslaughter against James Carr, the man who attended to the engine, and the same against James Brisbane, the man who took charge of the vessel." The CORONER said he would have been glad had another verdict been returned; 'as it was he was com pelled to commit both the men to Kirkdale, to await their trial at the next assizes. It was intimated, how ever, that steps would be taken to have them bailed out.—Liverpool Standard. 211 Y SUSIE'S AIVA'. I'm uneasy, and restless, and sleepless, an' a', And I'm very down-hearted, while Susie's awa'; I aften start up just atween twal an' twa, And think I hae Susie—but she'd far awa'; But she's far awa', My Susie's awa', And sleep flies from me when my Susie's awa'. From the dawn of the morn till setting of sun, My thoughts are of Susie, bccause we are one; But hundreds of miles, and the wide stormy main, Now divide us. and make us as if we were twain; For she's far awa', My Susie's awa'; Oh, there's nae rest for me while my Susie's awa'. Dear Friends, now I wish upon you to prevail To send back my Susi" by steam or by rail, For pestilence* spreads now with fearful alarms; Oh! send Susie speedily hame to my arms. For ae week or twa I'd carena aye, But months have pasa'd over sin' she gaud awa'. Now, Uncle and Aunt B—, and all your dear gang, I am sure you lo'e Susie—ye keep her sae lang; And our maiden friend, too, to detain her is fain; I entreat you to send Susie safe hame again. Tho' lasses I've twa, My comfort is sma'; It doesna seem hame when my Susie's awa'. C. B. * Cholera in Dundee. ROYAL GENERAL DISPENSARY.—On Wednesday a general court of governors was held at the Dispen sary, Aldersgate-street; Mr. Atkinson in the chair. The quarterly report, which was read by the secretary presented some interesting features with reference to the prevailing epidemic, showing how easy it was in a large majority of cases to check the disease in its inci pient stage. The return of patients from the Ist of April to the 30th of June showed a total of 4,496 received. Of these 2,764 were relieved or cared, 1,705 were under treatment, and 27 died. During the two following months of July and August there were 5,157 cases re lieved. This was to be accounted for by the sudden increase of cholera and diarrhoea, and the fact that the governors had determined that in the event of any case whatever of disease of the bowels applying for relief, it should be administered immediately at any hour of the day or night, In consequence of the publication of this determination there had been a great hicraase in the number of applications, of which 1,474 were entirely casual, There seemed to be a great probability that at the end of the year the number of patients, instead of being about 5,500 as usual, would be 8,000, the increased number being composed chiefly of cases of diarrhma and cholera. Almost every case of incipient cholera had been checked, and it was also very satisfactory to find that a good deal of alarm was removed from people's minds by the knowledge that there was a place always ready for the treatment of disease by day 3r night. The expenditure of this charity generally exceeded its income by about 3001., and the number of applications for assist ance was daily increasing. The expenditure for the present year would considerably exceed the income, and it was hoped that those interested in the welfare of the poor would come forward to endeavour to remedy this deficiency. This report was received and adopted, and the meeting separated after thanking the chairman. A SHIP s MAST SHIVERED Br LIGHTNING AT DEAL.—During the thunder storm, about eight o'clock on Sunday evening, the electric fluid struck the foremast of a barque in the Downs with so much force as to splinter its whole extent in various directions. On Mon day the temperature was oppressively sultry, and the sky threatening; nothing extraordinary, however, took place antil the evening about six o'clock, when the lurid clouds which had been scattered about during the day, seemed to merge in one dense mass. The raia now began to pour down in torrents, and the storm with one brief in termission continued to rage nearly four hours. Nothing could exceed the vivid intensity of the lightning, and several peals of thunder were remarkable for the appal ling sharpness with which they struck the ear. Report says that a boatman named Verrier, residing inWalmer road, was struck by the lightning, from the effects of which he soon, however, recovered. AOCIDENT IN A COAL -PIT.—On M on d ay afternoon aninquest was held at the police-office, before Thomas Holden, Esq., deputy-coroner, on the body of a youth named John Collier, who was kill e d on Saturday after noon, inconsequence of the breaking of a rope, at a new pit in course of being sunk by Messrs. Blair and Burton, on Tonge Moor, near Turner-bridge. On the same day another inquest was held at the Starkie's Arms, Tonge Moor-gate, by the county coroner, on the body of Wm. Drennand, who met his death at the same time, and from the same cause. It appeared that about half past three o'clock on Saturday afternoon, Drennand and the young man went down the shaft to fire is blast. The depth is forty-four yards. llrving done what they went down for, one of them called to the bankaman, who commenced winding them up. When they came near to the scaffolding upon which they should have landed, the rope by which they were ascending broke, and they were precipitated to the bottom of the shaft, a distance of twenty-six yards. The man (William Drennand) was killed on :the spot, and Collier only lived till eight o'clock the same night. It appeared that the men bad every confidence in the rope, and no blame being attri buted to any one, the jury, in each case, returned a ver dict of accidental deatb.—Manehester Guardian. COLCHICUM A REMEDY FOR CHOLERA.—Dr. Thos. Young Cotter, of South Australia, in a communication dated the 6th of February, speaks thus:—" It was not until I visited the Cholera Hospital in the west of Ire land, and had witnessed numerous cases in London, in which every variety of treatment had been tried, viz., the stimulant, the mercurial, the antimonial, the saline, the actual cautery, &c., each in turn succeeding in a few cases, but all failing in the aggregate, that I was induced to seek a more rational plan of treatment, when I was led- by some analogy between the chemical character of the blood in cholera with that of some other affections, in the treatment of which colchicum had been found use ful, to adopt this drug as a remedy for that disease. I had subsequently an opportunity of administering it to upwards of 30 cases in London, of ages varying from 2 years to 54 years, and 20 more isolated cases in this province, including two during the present month, and I am now happy to say that the whole of the cases so treated have recovered. I have usually administered half-drachm doses of the tincture of the seeds every 10 or 15 minutes, and have not had occasion to exhibit a larger quantity in the whole than two fluid ounces before the balance of the circulation had been fully restored, and all the urgent symptoms disappeared. In the majority of cases less than one ounce has been found sufficient. The patients have been allowed an unlimited supply of cold water to allay their thirst, but nothing else, arid all external ap plications have been abstained from as much as regard for the patients' feelings would allow. I feel confident that colchicum is as effectual—and I believe will be found to be the only certain —remedy for malignant cholera; and if administered as above, will cure every case that has not been subjected to any other plan of treatment. The Central Observatory for Natural Philosophy at St. Petershurgh was opened on the Ist July last. This establishment, which is placed under the direction of M. Kcipfer, is intended not only to furnish a suitable place and the necessary apparatus for philosophical re searches which require instruments of great precision and long-continued labours, but also a central point for all the magnetic and meteorological observations of the empire. This establishment is completely independent of the Academy of Sciences. ITALY.

Macpherson, of the 24th, who is wounded in his left arm. This officer entered the battle of Chillianwallah sixth lieutenant, and came out of it a captain. The regiment' lost in less than one hour 519 killed and wounded, including 23 officers. Assistant- Surgeon W. G. Trousdell, of the 29 th, is in medical charge of the detachment.

During the voyage they lost one man of the 14th Light Dragoons, Sergeant Harwood, and one man of the Company's service; also Captain Prowther and Lieutenant Delamot, both of the same service The troops belonging to the Company's service which came by the ship were conveyed to London. The Queen's troops speak very highly of the kind treatment they received on board from the captain, and indeed from all hands. ALARMING FlRE.—About two o'clock yesterday lfternoon a fire broke out at the farm of Granton Mains, occupied by Mr. M`Dougall. The fire was first dis covered proceeding from the barn, and no time was lost in raising an alarm throughout the neighbourhood. In formation having been sent to Edinburgh of the occur rence, two engines were speedily on the spot, as were llto two engines and a party of Artillery from Leith Fort, followed by a party of 24 French Marines with a 'mall and unique engine and apparatus of peculir con struction from the French corvette Prevoyant, at present lying off Granton. By the combined exertions of this extensive agency the fire was totally extinguished in the course of a few hours, beingeonfined to the barn and mill shed, in which was a valuable thrashing-mill. The loss is estimated at between 4001. and 5001.—Edinburgh Advertiser. Nonwzca.—On the news of the death of the Bishop of Norwich reaching this city, on Tuesday, a olineral feeling of regret was manifested among the in habitants; and all the shops in the city were, without previous concert, half closed, in testimony of the respect felt for the character and virtues of the venerated prelate, whose intercouse with the citizens had always been of the most friendly nature, and whose charities were as much distinguisned for their liberality of feeling as for their munificence. _ — Cleni - us is lord of the world. Men labour at the foundation of society, while the lowly lark, unseen and little prized, sits hard by, in his neat on the earth, gathering strength to bear his song up to the sun. Slowly rise basement and monumental aisle, column and architrave, dome and lofty tower; and when the cloud. piercing spire is burnished with gold, and the fabric stands perfect and wondrous, up springs the forg o tt en lark, with airy wheel, to the pinnacle, and standing poised and unwondering on his giddy perch, h e p ours out his celestial music till his bright footing trembles with harmony. And when the song is done, and mount ing thence, ho soars away to fill his exhausted heart at the fountains of the sun, the dwellers in the towers below look up to the gilded spire and shout—not to the burnished shaft, but to the lark—lost from it in the sky. —N.

THE RAILWAY ROBBERIES AT HUDDERSFIELD.— In addition to the four prisoners, Wood, Whitely, Yates, and Mellor, at present in custody, charged with being connected with the extensive robberies at the Hudders field Station of the London and North-Western and Lancashire and Yorkshire Railways, nine other servants (five porters and four draymen) employed in the waggon department of the companies, have been taken into cus tody on suspicion of being implicated in the affair; and also a person who resides in Golcar, named James Bailey, long suspected, and beforetime prosecuted as a receiver of stolen goods; and the police are still on the alert after others. The quantity of goods missing is very large, and it has been found that even since the first, four prisoners were taken, two trusses that were deli vered to the London and North-Western Company for transit on Friday week have disappeared in the same mysterious manner. The loss to the two companies, through this system of fraud, is proving of serious amount, and some notion of the extent to which it has been carried may be drawn from the fact that the Lan cashire and Yorkshire Company have had heavy claims against them for compensation during the past two years, amounting, during the past six months, to 5001. paid by the Huddersfield agent alone.—Manchester Guardian. MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.—The marriage of Captain Edward Somerset, M.P. for the county of Mon mouth, and eldest son of the late General Lord Edward Somerset, to Agatha, second daughter of William Miles, Esq., of Leigh Court, near Bristol, and M.P. for the county of Somerset, wa s celebrated yesterday morning at the parish church of Abbots Leigh. The bridal party left Leigh Court at half past ten o'clock in six carriages, with grey horses, the bride being attended by ten bridesmaids, principally members of the Miles and Beau fort families. Pis Grace the Duke of Beaufort was pre rent, and wore the collar and order of the Garter, and among the nuptial party were also Lord Fitzroy Somer set, brother of the bridegroom, Sir William Codrington, Bart., R.le. Th e serv i ce was read by the Rev. Robert Miles, uncle of the bride, by whom the marriage cere mony was solemnized. The youthful couple afterwards left Leigh Court for Trog House, Monmouthshire, one of the seats of his Grace the Duke of Beaufort, where they purpose spending the honeymoon. Dispatches were received yesterday at the Colonial- , office/ from the Governor of St. Helena. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Sept. 13. (Before Mr. WITHAM and a Bench of Magistrates.) Jeminsa Hewitt, aged 30, a married woman, was indicted for having stolen a watch of the value of Si., the property of John Reveil, from his person. Mr. O'Brien appeared for the prisoner. The evidence of the prosecutor, which was given through the medium of an interpreter, went to show the following facts :—lle is the proprietor of an " hotel," No. 1.5, Norton-street, Marylebone, and at about twelve o'clock on the night of the 21st ult., as he was walking up Regent-street in the company of a friend of the name or Niscrerio, they were met by the woman at the bar, who wasAocompanied by an other woman. The women suddeitv stopped them, and before he was able b release himself from the grasp of the prisoner, she had caught hold of the watch guard of the prosecutor, and giving it a quick jerk, it broke. The prosecutor at once put his hand into his waistcoat•pocket,and of course discovered that his watch was gone. Lie was then in the act of reaching forward to catch the prisoner, but was frustrated in the attempt by the other woman throwing herself upon him, so as to afford the prisoner time to effect her escape. 'Whilst he was endeavouring to free himself' from this incumbrance the prisoner was seen to hand the watch to two men who had been looking on at the whole transaction. No sooner had this been accomplished than the second woman relaxed her hold, and the prosecutor then sprang forward, secured the prisoner, and in due time gave her into the cus tody of the police. A search was then made for the other woman, as well as for the two men, but neither of these persons was to be found, nor had any tidings of the watch been since obtained. In the cross-examination of the prosecutor it was elicited that the "hotel" of which he is the proprietor is not a licensed house, and moreover that it is under the management of a French woman, to whom he is not married, and furthermore that the establishment consisted of a number of young French women. M. Noverio confirmed the statement which the prosecutor had given as to the history of the transac tion. He also stated that he was himself a hairdresser, carrying on his business at 14, Sherrard-street, Golden- square. Mr. O'IRIEN addressed the jury on behalf of the prisoner, and contended that there had been a discre pancy between the statements of the prosecutor and his witness Noverio as to the moment when the watch had been taken ; for whilst the one said that he had laid hold of the prisoner before he had missed his watch, the other stated that it was not until the watch was discovered to have been taken that the prosecutor had seized the prisoner. Under these circumstances the prisoner, he submitted, was fully entitled to an acquittal. Mr. WITHAM, in the course of his recapitulation of the evidence, said that, without doubt, the prosecutor had made a misrepresentation to the Court, when he described himself as being an " hotel•keeper." What proved to be the fact ? Why, that the house was neither more nor less than a "common lodging house" —even, indeed, if it were nothing worse—for young French women. However, let the house ba what it might, that was no justification for the daring robbery which the prosecutor stated had been com mitted upon him. The jury, therefore, would direct their attention to the whole of the testimony which had been given, and then say whether it was or was not sufficient to warrant their bringing in a verdict of guilty. The jury consulted for a short time, and then gave a verdict of Guilty. Mr. WITHAM then said, that he had no doubt what ever but that the prisoner was one of those impudent and daring prostitutes who went about the streets at a late hour at night with her bullies for the purpose )f robbing any person who might happen to fall in her way. One of the jurymen here rose and said, that he himself thoroughly understocd the French language, and by that knowledge he was enabled to say that the interpreter, who was a German, had faile.l to give a faithful translation of all the different parts of the prosecutor's statement. With respect to the moment at which the watch had been missed by him, the pro secutor had distinctly stated that he had missed his watch before he had seized the woman. The interpreter denied that he had misrepresented any single word of the evidence, and besought the Learned Judge to protect him from such an un just attack as that which had been made upon his veracity. Mr. O ' BRIEN, upan this, submitted that if the jury had arrived at their verdict upon a wrong statement of the evidence, it was quite clear, if the representa tions of the juryman were correct, that the verdict was not a legal verdict, because it had been given upon the version of the evidence which had just been put forth by the juryman, and not upon the evidence as rendered by, the interpreter, which, in truth, was the only evidence upon which the jury ought to give their verdict. Mr. WITUAM observed, that under the peculiar cir cumstances of the case, he would allow the jury to reconsider their verdict, if they thought such a course would further the ends of justice. The jury, however, did not think such a course at all necessary. They were quite satisfied upon the matter. Mr. WITLIAM thereupon sentenced the prisoner to nine months' imprisonment with hard labour. INDECENT TUBLICATIONS.--THE QUEEN V. FREDERICK RUNT. In this case the defendant was indicted for the public exposure and vending of indecent and obscene publications for sale at his shop, No. 66, Castle-street, Leicester- square. Mr. BALLANTINE now said that he was instructed on the part of the prosecution to state that the jury and the Court would, he was happy to say, be spared a detail of the disgusting and offensive facts of this case. He was informed that it was the intention of the defendant to plead "guilty," and thus there would be no necessity for going into the circumstances. All prosecutions of this character were of the utmost im portance in a moral point of consideration, but there was a still higher and a more important object to he gained, namely, the prevention of the offence. If, then, the prevention of a recommission of the offence only could be attained, every good end would have been accomplished without entering into any disgusting details, which, of course, would find their way through the ordinary channels to the eye of the public, were they gone into. In the pr es e n t i ns t ance he was in a position to say that the prosecution would be amply satisfied by the defendant entering into recognizances to the amount of 1001. to be of good behaviour for the space of twelve months, and to come up to receive the judgment of the Court when called upon for that purpose. Mr. PARRY, who appeared for the defendant, said that the course which had been taken by his Learned Friend was most forbearing. His client would, of course, most gladly comply with what was required of him. The defendant then, on being arraigned, pleaded Guilty, and entered into the necessary recognizances. Mr. WITHAM directed that the whole of the books and prints which had been seized by the police on the defendant's premises should be burnt. THE QUEEN V. INMAN. In this case the defendant had been charged under three separate indictments with being the owner and keeper of several houses of ill-fame in the parish of St. Pancras'. Mr. BALLANTINE this morning handed an affidavit to the Court which set forth that the defendant had died on Saturday of the cholera, and that he had been buried on Monday. The COURT thereupon ordered the recognizances of the various parties to be discharged. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBORO UGH-STRE ET. Edwin Malcolm, of No. I,William's-place, Bromp on, was summoned before Mr. Hardwick, charged with having assaulted Miss Elizabeth Mann, of No. 2, Pall-mall. Mr. Roberts attended for the complainant ; Mr. Child for the defendant. Miss Mann, on being placed in the witness•box, went into a fainting fit, and after having received proper attention she was accommodated with a seat, and during her evidence was well supplied with water, salts, and finally a glass of brandy and water. She said she was a single woman, and the proprietor of Verrey's café, No. 3, Pall-mall. On the 7th of September, being unwell, she we n t t o b e d a b out e i ght o clock, locking her room door. About an hour after wards she heard a noise at the door, and the defen dant, whose voice she recognised, called out—" Any one who comes out of this door I'll murder them." The door was burst open, and the defendant and six or seven other persons entered the room. One of them bore a light, the others were provided with sticks and with candlesticks reversed, which they flourished about menacingly. By the help of the light she was enabled to see that some of these persotio had their faces blackened like coalheavers. The defendant came to the bed and desired her to get up, saying " Here is the devil R e want." The defendant seized her forcibly, and dragged her out of bed in her nightdress. She went on her knees, and begged to be permitted to remain on the floor, and that , a doctor might be sent for. The defendant replied, "No, you have used me and Wilson bad enough, and I'll do for you and Lindon" (meaning the managing man). The defendant then told the persons in the room to carry her out, and complainant- was accord ingly forced down stairs into the coffee.room, and ultimately into the street. Cross examined by Mr. Child—No one was in the bed-room but herself when the door was broken open. Complainant was only in her nightdress when dragged out of bed, but afterwards the defendant put her morning wrapper round her. In the coffee-room were 20 more persons, at least, who had been brought into the house by the defendant. Had not in the tours,' of the day been required to deliver up posses sion of the premises. Catherine Donovan, servant to Miss Mann, said she 1849. heard the bed-room door broken open, and she saw a number of persons, among whom was the defendant, in her mistress's bed-room. She did not see any violence committed, as she got out of the way by going to the top of the house. Thomas Lindon, the manager of the cafe, said just before the occurrence he was informed that two rough fellows had entered the - cAree-rootn. He went to them and spoke a few words, upon which one of the men went to the door and whistled. Immediately afterwards the defendant and up wards of a dozen ruffianly-looking fellows rushed into the house, and some of them forced their way upstairs. Witness attempted to collect the waiters and some persons who were in the house to protect it, for the purpose of opposing these person.% but he could not do anything effectual. His mistress was ultimately pushed out into the street. Tue waiter Jules gave similar evidence. It was admitted by one of the witnesses that some proceedings had previously occurred, in which the complainant and her party - had been overpowered and turned out of the house. Mr. Child said, as he gathered from what had fallen from the Bench that it was intended to send the case to a jury, he should not enter into any explanation of the extraordinary circumstances which had led to the hostile proceedings between the parties. As far, how ever, as the assault was concerned, he would say that no assault was committed, as the complainant stood in the position of an intruder in the premises, with no lawful right to be there, and that what was done was merely to use reasonable force to remove her from the house. The defendant i'as held to bail, and a cross sum mons against the complainant for an assault on the defendant's wife, was arranged to stand over for the present. IV 0 RSHIP- STREET. A young man named Richard Harris, described as a solicitor's clerk, who stood charged with ha v i ng uttered several forged 51. Bank of England notes, was placed at the bar before Mr. Arnold for further ex amination. Mr. Freshfield, solicitor to the Bank, attended to conduct the prosecution, and Mr. Ballantine, the bar rister, appeared with Mr.Vann, the solicitor, on behalf of the prisoner. The facts adduced at the former examination have already appeared in this paper, from which it may be recollected that the prisoner then stood charged with having uttered a forged 51. note to Martha Wilton, the keeper of a house of bid repute in Essex-street, Kingslaud-road, and the following additional cases were now proceeded with. Albin Plush, who described himself as the keeper of a lodging house for railway travellers in Welles ley-street, Euston -square, stated, that about nine o'clock on the evening of the 16th ult. the prisoner came to his house, accompanied by a woman, and in quired if they could be accommodated with an apartment for the night. They were shown into a room upstairs, but had only been there a few minutes when the pri soner came down alone, and requested the witness's wife to sent out for a pint of port wine, and handed her a five pound note, stating that he was entirely without change. Witness went himself for the wine to an adjoining public-house, where he procured change for the note, and gave the prisoner the difference. The prisoner then returned to the apartment, and after a short interval a person, with whom witness had seen him in conversation a short time before, presented himself at the door in apparent haste, and stated that one of the prisoner's friends, who had just arrived by the railway, was waiting at the end of the street, and wished to see him immediately. On communicating the message to the prisoner he instantly hurried out, promising that he would be back in a few minutes, but he failed to return, and witness saw no more of him until he found him in the custody of the police upon another charge. - In cross-examination by Mr. Ballantine, the witnes s admitted that he kept a house of general accommo dation, and that he was not at all particular about the character of his customers so long as they paid their way. Mr. Ballantine—ln fact, the house you keep is neither more nor less than a common brothel ? Witness—Exactly so; and I am not at all ashamed to say Elizabeth Smith, landlady of the Dolphin public house, Tonbridge-street, New-road, proved that, at the time mentioned, she had given change to the last witness for the note produced, which was paid away by her husband a few days afterwards, but that it was subsequently returned to him stamped as a forgery. A third case was then gone into, in which the prisoner was positively identified by Esther Harrison, a young woman of abandoned habits, as having handed to her a 51. bank-note at her own lodgings some time since, with instructions to get it changed in payment of some brandy and other spirits, which she did at a neighbouring vintner's named Surton ; but the witness fixed the time she had uttered it for the prisoner at between nine and ten o'clock, while the landlord of the house stated it to be a much later hour; and, there appearing to exist several other rather important discrepancies between her testimony and that of the changer of the note, the magistrate did not consider the evidence sufficiently conclusive, and the case was therefore not proceeded with to a conclusion. Mr. Ballantine, on behalf of the accused, said that he should be prepared with a complete answer to the charges gone into upon a future occasion, and inti mated that two of the partners in the firm in which the prisoner was employed were then in attendance, and were so firmly convinced of his innocence that they were willing to tender bail for his future ap pearance to any amount that might be required. Mr. Freshfield, on the part of the prosecution, said that be felt it his duty to oppose any application for bail, as a large number of similar forged notes had lately been put into circulation, and he understood that the police believed they would be able to con nect the prisoner with other transactions of a similar description. Sergeant Teakle intimated to the magistrate that the prisoner had been identified that morning as the utterer of another 51. note, which he had then in his possession, and he fully expected that he t,hould he in a condition on a future day to substantiate several other cases against him. Mr. ARNOLD, under these circumstances, declined to accept bail, and the prisoner was therefore re manded for a week. The general defence seemed to be that an entire mistake had been made in the prisoner's identity, though the witnesses carefully described the dress and personal appearance of the utterer of the notes in each instance.

FATAL EFFECTS FROM CHARCOAL.--A young man, named Ajalbert, working as a journeyman at a cooper's in the Rue des Marais, Faubourg du Temple, Paris, had on several occasions, when in a state of som nambulism, been known to get up during the night and employ himself about his room. Having obtained leave from his master to pay a visit to his friends in the country, Sunday was appointed for bis departure. On Saturday night, his mind being probably occupied with , the next day's journey, he got up in his sleep and lit the stove in the room with charcoal, and then returned to his bed. Two apprentices who slept in the room were soon awoke by the overpowering vapour. The elder one endeavoured to save the other by dragging him out of the room, but, wanti ng f orce to execu t e his pur pose, ho fell on the floor with his companion. The next morning, the master finding that Ajalbert did not come l down early, as he had intended, went up stairs to call him. On entering the room, he was horror-struck at his the sight which presented itself. Ajalbert lay on bed already dead, whilst the two lads. who, from being on the floor, had been probably less affected b dangerous d y the hudele terious gas, still breathed, t state. They were at once removed i n to the hospital St. Louis, and hopes are entertained of sme savingonmthoeinrdlai Monday the AN EXCELLENT LANDLORD. — Marquis of Downsbire, accompanied by his agent, Wil liam Owen, Rig., made presents of his Wicdlow and Kildate estates.
