By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con• tributiou of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.

The d ALTH OF LONDON RING THE WEEK. ?,egistrar- General's Return.) 'rem cholera has rapidly_ declined.. 11 causes registered in London in 'ding Sept. 22, were 3,160, 2,842, .ecrease has been exclusively in the cholera deaths, which were 2,026, 1,682, and 839 hi the three weeks. The deaths from choleia, which in the first week of September were three and font hundred a day, fell on the 19th to 110, and have since not exceeded 123. The facts which have been published in 'detail will, it is believed, be found useful contributions to the natural history of the epidemic. Tbey will show tte regular course of the disease through a vast city population; the infliienceof sex, age, profession, and locality, and a great variety of circumstances on its mortality. It may be useful to point out now tho remarkable effects of locality on the fatality of the epidemic, although the proportions may 3ot be altercd by subsequent deaths. London is divided into 36 districts for registration purposes, and the districts are sub-divided into 135 sub•districts. The population was enumerated in 1841, and the nearest approximation that can he easily given to the actual population is obtained by assuming that the population increased in 1841-9 at the same rate as from 1831 to 1841. Dividing the deaths from cholera in the 13 weeks ending Sep'Em ber 15, 1849, by the population thus estimated, the following results are arrived at, and cannot be far from the truth ; More than 5 in 1.000 of the inhabitants of London died of cholera; the more accurate proportion was 53 in 10,000 inhabitants. From all causes the mor talicy was 116: a rate which is equivalent to an annual rate of 4 64 per cent. 35 in 10,000 of the inhabitants on tl.e north side of the Thames died of cholera. 104 in 10,000 of the inhabitants on the south aide of the Thames died of cholera. The mortality was therefore three times as great on the south side as it was on the north side of the river. Taking 10,000 inhabitants is the hash' of cotnpaTi• son in each dintricr, the mortality ranged from 8 in Hampstead to 225 inßotherhithe. _ _ The large north districts extend from the Edge ware-road to the river Lea; the mortality was, for Marylehone, 15 ; Sr. Pancras, 17; Islington, 20; Hackney, 15. The mortality of Narylebone and t. Pancras is slightly raised by the Middlesex and University College Hospitals. Some cholera patients were st nt out of Islington to the Free Hospital in St. Pancras, where their deaths were registered. The middle districts, extending in a curve from Kensington to Bethnal-green, present generally a touch higher rate of mortality ; yet there are remark able exceptions. The mortality in Kensington die t: ict, including Paddiuwon and Fulham, was 19 ; St. James, Westminster, only 12 ; St. Gies, 48 ; Holborn, 28; Clerkenwell, 15 (5 less than Islington); St. Luke, 30 ; Shoreditch, 65 ; Bethnal-green, 75. St. James, Westminster, is a wealthy parish ; the houses were rated at 691., on an average, in 1841. The rookery an other bail streets contributed among other things to raise the mortality of St. Giles district t o 48. Clcikenwell, extending across the higher part 0 , the New road to Pentonville, has lost only 15 in 10,C00; St. Luke double the propor tion. The rated value of the houses, and probably the income of the inhabitants, diminish rapidly in passing from the west to the east parts of London. The average rating of the hou-es in 1841 was,—for St. James, Westminster, 691.; St. Giles, 481 ; Hol born, 30/.; St. Luke, 28/.; Shoreditch, 13/. ; Beth nal green, 81. The two last districts are poor, and badly drained. Scme of the deaths registered in Shoreditch, in a certain sense, belong and have been counted to the district of St. Luke, whose workhouse is in Shoreditch. The river-side districts of the north present a higher rate of mortality from cholera than the cor responding districts of the middle and outside range. Chelsea lost 42 in 10,600 inhabitants ; KE nsington, Vk have seen,]; St. Gewge, Hanover-square, extending from Oxford• street to the river, lost only 14 in 10.000; and 71 out of the 106 deaths were in the Belgrave sub-district. The mortality (57) was high with less than half the population in the low West minster district; St. Martin-in-the-Fields and the Strand, rising fast from the banks of the river, lost 27 and 31 in 10,000 ; the city of London within the walls, 33 ; the London city, east district, 38 ; the west district, traversed by the Fleet ditch, 70 or 128, ac cordingly as we include or exclude the deaths in St. Bartholumew'a Hospital, At the'close of the epidemic th'se deaths may be distributed over the districts front which the patients were brought; in the meantime, the mortality of the City from cholera must lie between 43 and 57. Whitechapel lost 50 ; St. George•in-the- East, Stepney, and Poplar, 35, 40, 67, the mortality here being inversely as the density of the population. Opposite the city and Whitechapel lie on the other side the Thames, St. Saviour, St. Olave, and St. George, Southwark, where the mortality was 141, 151, 142 ; further east the mortality rises to 163 in Bermondsey and in Rotherhithe, intersected by stagnant water, reaches the maximum 225 in 10,C0J, or 2k per cent. It will be observed that on the north bank, opposite Bermondsey and Rotherbithe, the deaths from cholera were only 35 and 40 in 10,000, yet the ordinary rate of mortality in St. George's-in•the East is 2.89, and of Rotherhithe 2.77 per cent. The mortality of Greenwich, including Deptford and Woolwich. was 61 in 10,000; Camberwell and Newington 88 ar.d 125, less than the mortality of districts on the south river side, but much higher than even Shoreditch and Bethnal-green. The Latnbeth district extends from the Thames to Norwood ; over this great area and population the average mortality was 97 in 10,000. The mortality from cholera of the river side parts of Lambeth is as high as the mortality of St. Saviour, St. Olave, &c. The parts on the south side the river where the cholera hss prevailed with so much violence are below the Trinity high-water mark. At Nor wood there were only two deaths by cholera; at Dulwich, in Camberwell district, none; at Elthatn, three; Sydenham five, in Lewisham district; so that the mortality from cholera on the high ground, and in the outer districts of Surrey on the south side tie Them►s, was as low as in Hampstead, Kentish-town, Stoke Newington, and Stamford hill. The physical causes of cholera, or rather of the mor tality of cholera, may now be investigated in the soil, atmosphere, and people, of the several districts of London. MR, BRIGHT, M.P.—This gentleman returned from Ireland on Monday, having occupied upwards of a month in a tour of observation and inspection through out t , ,e south and west of that country. In the course of his tour Mr. Bright has visited the counties of Dublie, Wicklow. W. xford, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary, Clare, Galway, Mayo, Roscommon, and some others. As might have been expected, the union work houses have been carefully visited, and the condition of the peasantry and of the land has been extensively °b ee sved. With regard to the existing relations betwt en landlord and tenant, we have reason to believe that Mr. Might Las seer. enough to convince him of the absshres necessity of a law to give security to the tenant tor the improvements he may create ; and it is not improbable that, should the Government refuse to legislate on this all-important subject, Mr. Bright will be prepared to bring the matter before Parliament at the opening of next cession, backed by influential opinions from all parts of Ireland We should be glad to bear that Eeglish Members in large numbers had been visiting a country whose condition so much demands their at.e..- tion.—Manchester . Examiner. SUICIDE FROM STARVATION.—List night an in quest was held before Mr. F. S. Laugham, deputy•coro• ner, at the Aran Arms, New Bond-street, touching the death of John Jenkins, aged 37 years, a gentleman's coachman, who ee,troytd nimself under the following very melancholy circumstances :—From evidence deposed to by the witnesses, it appeare that the deceased lived at No. 17, Lancashire-court; he bad been out of employ ment since May last, and was reduced to very great distress, and in want of the common necessaries of life. All his and his wife's wearing apparel had been pledged to obtain food, and for several days last week they had no coals to make a fire or any food to cat. It prey , d very heavily on deceased's mind, who refused to allow his wife to apply to the parish. The deceased had not tasted anything for several days, and his mind appeared to be affected. He remained in bed, and never spoke to his wife or children. On Sunday morning last he got up and went down stairs; shortly afterwards his wife digs covered that he had hung himself, with his child's skip- Ong rope, to an area railings. One of the jurors re marked that one of the deceased's children came into his shop on Saturday last, and asked for some bread and butter, and said his mother was crying at home and had nothing to eat.

The at mosphere on Saturday afternoon was singularly clear, although the sky was covered with clouds, so as to «x -elude the rays of the sun, except here and there a small patch. The writer of this paragraph was taking a walk on the outer part of the race-course, and on looking back tawards the town was surprised to find the Isle of Wight appearing with as much distinctness as the ordi nary aspect of Worthing from the Brighton cliffs. The high ground of the \.•w Forest beyond Southamp ton Water, was &so as plainly discernible as is usually High Down-hill, beyond Worthing, when viewed from Brigh ton. A shepherd, who had spent on these hills neat ly the whole of fifty years, which constituted the duration of his life, declared that he had never seen the island so distinctly.—Brighton Gazette.

MAJOR AND HES WAGER. A smart young fellow of the name of Major Reselv'd one day That he would lay A singularly interesting wager, The bet which Mr. Major laid was this (And certainly 'tis not so much amiss); Six Overcoats were to be made By different artistes in the trade. The number of the Coats was not much heeded, For, as it happen'd, they were, just then, needed. The garments being made, Were on a table to be laid ; And after that an umpire was to fix On one among the six, And if the one selected from the rest, As being best, Turn'd out to be the Coat of M. and SON, The curious wager Of Mr. Major Was to he view'd as honourably won. The umpire chosen was a Mr. Grainger, A man whose taste Is rightly placed, And, I would add, to this a perfect stranger. The time arrived, and Mr. Matthew Major Was all agog to hear about his wager. The friends all met, the umpire came, Straight to the coat-clad table, And in a way most able, Presided at the same. The new-made Coats were thoroughly inspected, Aid one, as choicest, was at length selected. All in the room save Mr. Major, Who laid the wager Looked right atm:gilt down their noses; For, as you'll guess, The choicest dress Was that obtained of MOSES. LIST OF PRICES.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. :VESTMINSTER COUNTY COURT, Sept. 25 (Before D. C. MOYLAN, &q, Judge.) CAUTION TO BETTING MEN.-BURNMAN V. CAUNT. 'Phis was an action brought by the plaintiff, a licensed victualler, against Ben Caunt, the pugilist, Champion of England, to recover the sum of 81, de posited as stakes pending the result of a certain fight between Herbert and Armstrong, two well-known boxers. It was stated by plaintiff's attorney that his client had betted the sum claimed with a third party re specting a prize battle between two fighting men, the stakes were deposited with the defendant, and ultimately it was arranged that each party should receive back his money, but the stakeholder, however, refused to hand over plaintiff's claim, although in answer to an application for it he addressed the fol lowing singular epistle : " To 'slr. Burnman.—Sir,—Upon consideration, I find it quite unnecessary to come to your house to make any other arrangement to what I have previously done. It iA your own money, and there it is ready at my house any time you like to send for it. Anything different I shall never do. (Signed) "BEN. CALINT." Mr. DUNCAN continued, that although the defendant possessed so high a reputation in the sporting world, it was his intention to set up the dishonest defence, by rej=czing his liability to the claim under the 18th sec ian of the 8 and 9 Victoria, c. 109. Toe JUDGe-If that be the case, I think the Act is quite conclusive upon the point. The objection hav ing then been made by defendant's solicitor, the plain tiff was accordingly nonsuitecl. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Sept. 25. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant-Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates.) This morning the September sessions for the county of Middlesex commenced at Hicks'-hall, Clerkenwell green. The calendar contains the names of 69 prisoners, of whom 65 are indicted for felony. Of this total there are only two who are described as being able to read and write well, 34 who can scarcely read and write, seven who can read only, and 20 who can do neither. The grand jury having been sworn, The Learned JUDGE briefly addressed them. William Fowler, aged 26, was indicted for having stolen a case and a pair of pistols cf the value of 3/ , the property of Henry Langham, the younger. It appeared that the prisoner, on the 7th of July last, had taken a lodging in the house of a Mrs. Lang ham, who resides at 81, Seymour-place, Bryanstone square, and that on the 12th he left the premises ithout giving any notice, neither did he return, not did he pay any portion of his rent. The discovery of his having gone off in this manner had not been very long ascertained when it was found that the pistols and case in question were also missing from the room adjoining that which had been occupied by the prisoner. The pistols were the property of the son of the landlady, and were worth bet ween 31. and 4/., and had been seen in the room on the Sunday preced• ing the day on which the prisoner was founclto have gone off. The assistant of a pawnbroker, of the name of Young, who carries on his business at 51, Princes street, Leicester-Kluare, stated that the pistols which he then produced had been pawned at his employer's shop at an early hour on the morning of the 12th of July, and that shortly afterwards they had received information of the articles having been stolen. From that time, until Tuesday last, nothing more had been heard about the thief, nor had any clue been obtained as to his whereabouts; but on that day the prisoner called at his master's shop and requested to be allowed to look at the pistols, as he had purchased the dupli cates of them for 355. from a friend; and that, having (lone so, he meant to take them out. Upon this the pawnbroker's assistant looked well at the man, and then, recognising him as the actual pawner, said, " Why, that seems strange, because you are the man who pawned them." The prisoner at once told the assistant that he was under a mistake, but the latter reiterated his assertion as to his being the man ; and having communicated to him that he was aware that the pistols had been stolen, he sent for a policeman, into whase custody he gave him. The policeman, 27 C, said that having received the prisoner into his custody, he subsequently caused the pistols to be shown to young Mr. Langham, by whom they were at once recognised as those which had been taken from his room, and which were his property. This gentleman added that they had been taken from a room in his mother's house, at 81, Seymour-place, whereupon the prisoner instantly said, that not only had he never known Mrs. Langham, but that he had never been at the house mentioned. The witness, however, did nut believe him, and therefore he took the prisoner to Mrs. Lang ham, by whom he was instantly identified as the man who had hired the apartment;; but he denied that statement with much indignation. Upon this Mrs. Langhain produced a letter which she had received at her house, but which was addressed to the priso ner, and having perused its contents, he readily ad mitted that the letter was for him, and from that moment he ceased to declare that he had never lived in the house. Mr. PAYNE, on behalf of the prisoner, contended that, when the prisoner had gone to the pawnbroker's to redeem the pistols, he had done so with the inten tion of restoring them to their rightful owner. It was not pretended for one moment that the prisoner had not taken the pistols, but he was bound to couple with that admission, that when be had visited the pawnbroker's shop on Tuesday, it had been with the intention of returning them to Mr. Langhatn, the son. Several witnesses were then called, all of whom gave the prisoner an excellent character. The Learned JUDGE having summed up the whole of the evidence, The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned JUDGE thereupon sentenced the pri soner to three months' imprisonment, with hard labour.' William Morris, aged 15, was indicted for hay stolen two bushels of oats and a sack, the property of James Peto, to whom he was servant. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor that he is a furmer at Hetton, near Brentford, and that the prisoner, who was in his employ, on the morning of the 18th inst. was in the act of leaving the farm, in pursu ance of his previous instructions, with a load of po tatoes, which he was to convey to Covent-garden market. The prosecutor, on casting his eyes towards the contents of the cart, fancied that the prisoner wa , about to take a larger quantity of provender for the team than could possibly be required for so short a journey and so short an absence, and accordingly he had a portion of it taken out of the cart. In the operation of removing the bundles of tares, a sack, which was found to contain two bushels of oats, was exposed to view. On making this discovery he caused the boy to be taken into custody. The jury found the prisoner Guilty upon this evi dence. The prosecutor then stood up, and most earnestly appealed to the Court to deal leniently with the prisoner. The reason why he was so anxious that they boy should be lightly punished was, first, that he had good grounds for supposing that this was his first offrnce, and next, that if he were to be made the subject of a severe sentence, the boy would be altogether ruined. Then there was another reason why he was desirous for the boy to be at liberty. He was a yearly servant, and if he were at large he would have an opportunity of obtaining another place at the approaching Michaelmas, and thereby, by his future good conduct, retrieving his character. The Learned JUDGE observed that the prosecutor had conducted himself in a most creditable and charitable manner. The Court, however, were inclined to think that the boy at the bar could give such infor mation as would enable the apprehension of a person or persons who were far greater rogues and thieves than the lad himself —namely, the party or parties to whom he had intended to take the oats. Now, after the recommendation of the prosecutor, if the prisoner wou!d divulge the necessary information, the sentence which would be passed upon him would be very dif ferent indeed from that which, under the ordinary circumstances, it would have been. The prisoner was then removed to his cell below. After the lapse of some time the constable com• municated to the Court that he had had an interview with the boy, but that it had been to no purpose, as he had told him that he should not say a word about the matter ; and that the Court might do what theN liked with him. The Learned JUDGE having ordered the prisoner t, be again placed in the dock, said, that as he had re fused to give the requisite information, the sentence must be unaccompanied by the intended lenity. Lied he given the information which would have enabled the man who had led him into crime to be appre headed, and in the end punished, the sentence would have been seven days' imprisonment. Not having chosen to do that, the prisoner would now have b undergo an imprisonment of six months, with harc labour. W. Grindlay Grice pleaded Guilty to an indict ment, charging him with having stolen a yaluabl , dressing case, with silver fittings, of the value of 81 the property of Isaac Jacobson. Mr. Meller appeared to defend the prisoner, who, n being arraigned, had pleaded Not Guilty, which plea, under the advice of his learned counsel, he withdrew on being brought up for trial. The facts of the case have but recently been placed before our readers through the medium of the pike reports. Mr. MELLea said, that this was an extremely pain ful case, and he had advised the prisoner to plead guilty because there really was not one single point in this case upon which the least hope of an acquittal could ha hung. The prisoner was a young man, not only of highly respectable connexions, but of highly cultivated talents, for he was the master of five or six languages. But in the present day it was well known that men of the largest attainments and of the highest acquirements were oftentimes unable to obtain those positions wherein those v.cluable abilities could be made available to them. So had it been in the case of this young man, and the consequence had been that, instead of reaping the advantages of the vast powers with which Providence and his own early application had blessed him, he had been, com pelled to endeavour to obtain a livelihood by pur chasing furniture and other articles on commission. Success, however ' had not accompanied his efforts, and at last, in a fit of desperation, induced by an all but state of starvation, he had fallen into the commission of the offence with which he at that moment stood charged. Several witnesses deposed to the honesty of the crisoner's character, to his unremitting efforts to earn a livelihood, and to the great propriety of his general conduct. Mr. WrrnAm (who was at this time sitting for Mr. Sergeant Adams) said, that this was a very serious case, but that under the peculiar circumstances which had surrounded the prisoner, he would be dealt as mildly with as was possible. The Learned Gentle man then recapitulated the facts of the case (which appeared in our columns about a week since), and concluded by sentencing the prisoner to four months' imprisonment and hard labour. The Court will sit to-morrow (this) morning at the Guildhall, 'Westminster, in consequence of the inconvenience which the re-painting and white washing of the Sessions-house at Clerkenwell have caused. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Charles Thomas, who was remanded on Saturday last on the charge of obtaining fraudulently fancy goods to the amount of 401. 17s. lld , from Mr. Hel laby, of No. 7, Huggin-lane, stcck, brace, and belt manufacturer, was brought up for further examina tion before Mr. Alderman Lawrence. Mr. Walker, from the office of Messrs. Mardon acid Prichard, appeared to prosecute on behalf of the city of London Trade Protection Society, and Mr. Beard, from Mr. Buchanan's office, defended the pri soner. Mr. Beard E aid that, with the Anerman's per mission, he wished to cross-examine the principal witness. Mr. Farrar, in answer to Mr. Beard's questions, said—This piece of paper, written by the referee (Mr. Bickham), is in the same state as when I received it from the servant. At that time I was in no employ ment, but acted as an agent on my own account. I had previously lived with Mr. Farmer, when the prisoner gave an order for some parasols and referred me to Bickham. of 6, Noel-street, Duncan-terrace, City-road. I went to that person and told him to call o❑ Mr. Farmer, which he did, and the reference was considered satisfactory. Mr. Beard—Were the goods supplied Mr. Far rar—They were not. Mr. Beard—At what time did you get this paper from the referee ? Mr. Farmer—Why, after I left Mr. Farmer in my capacity as an agent, I called on Mr. Thomes and said, that as he had given such a ;ood recommendation I should not mind serving him in any way of business, and it was after that I got the written document from Mr. Bickham, saying that I was perfectly safe in any transactions I might have with the prisoner. Mr. Beard—Then it was before you executed any order for Mr. Hellaby that you obtained this recom mendation ? Mr. Farrar—On execution of this order I showed him the piece of paper, and said I was glad to execute such a good order on such an excellent recommendation, and that it was a great pleasure to (lo business with a man who could be depended upon. Alderman LAWRENCE—Did you receive that do cument after you left Mr. Farmer, and before you became traveller to Mr. Hellaby ? Mr. Farrar— I did. By Mr. Walker—lt was on the strength of this re ference that I solicited the order from the prisoner. Alderman LAWRENCE—I do not see how this piece of paper can at all be connected with the false representation as respects Mr. Hellaby's case, because such a document was obtained by the witness pre vious to his entering into that person's employ, and might refer to anybody else. It was not transferable, and, not being written in relation to Hellaby, that case is discharged. Mr. Walker said, that as that case had fallen to the ground, he should now proceed to adduce evidence of such a nature as to justify the prisoner's being remanded on another. There were upwards of 20 people in the room who had been victimized, but, not having time to examine into their cases, in consequence of the shortness of the remand, he should not take up the time of the Court by call ing them at present; but he should produce evidence to show that in March, 1849, he resided at Beau mont street, Marylabone street, under the name of Thomas Hogg, and obtained goods to the amount of between 501. and 601., some of which had been supplied in the City, and some in Middlesex, whereas it would also be shown that he had figured in . the Insolvent Debtors' Court under the name of Brandon. It would also appear that he had gone under the names of Thomas Brandon, Thomas Charles Brandon, and Charles Thomas Brandon, and that he was in the habit of taking houses for two or three years, per agreement, entering them just pre vious to quarter-day, and, after making the most of his time by swindling the tradesmen in the neigh bourhood, decamping before the first quarter was due, and keeping the landlord out of possession. In another case he took a house, where there were up wards of 40/. worth of fixtures, which were after wards removed, and had been traced to the neigh bourhood of the Kent-road. In one case a bill had been given, but, as a matter of course, was never taken up, and a tailor who took home some clothes on Saturday night, expecting to get his money, was told that the prisoner was not at home, but he had better leave the goods and call on the following Monday, when he would be paid. He did so, and, on calling. found, as in every other case, that his customer had moved away before six o'clock in the morning. Alderman LAWRENCE—CaII your witnesses, and if there is sufficient evidence, I most certainly will remand him. Mr Henry Vyse, of the firm of Vyse and Sons, 76, Wood-street, Cheapside, merchants and straw-hat manufacturers, said, in the month of February last the prisoner called at our warehouse, in the name of Thomas Hogg, and requested us to open an account with him. I said, the usual course was to give a reference, upon which he gave me the name of Mr. Willis, Maze-pond, gentleman, in consequence of which we supplied him with certain goods, under the name of Hogg, as Willis became his security. From inquiries made, we understood Mr. Willis was a re tired gentleman, living on his property. Not getting the money from the prisoner, further inquiries were made, and it was found that both customer and referee had moved off, after swindling almost every person in the neighbourhood. Alderman LAWRENCE—How came you to find out his sudden removal ? Mr. Vyse—Why he promised to pay on the Monday, and on sending some goods which had been ordered it was then discovered that he had run away, as well as Mr. Willis. The latter gave a letter, saying that . he would be answerable to a certain amount. Mr. Walker—lf the prisoner had given his true name (Brandon), would you have supplied him with these goods ? Mr. Vyse—Certainly not. It is usual in our way of business to search the books and see if any person's name is on the list as bankrupt or insolvent. Alderman LAWRENCE—Did you look over that list? Mr. Vyse—Yes. Here's a copy with the name of Brandon in different Christian names. Mr. Beard—How do you know the prisoner is that penon? Mr. Walker—l will prove that by a witness which I intend to call. By Mr. Beard—This letter is in my handwriting. It sass the reference was satisfactory. M. Beard—lt was for that reason you gave credit ? Mr. Vyse—lt was. Alderman LAWRENCE—Believing his real name to be Thomas Hogg ? Mr. Vyse—Yes. Mr. Beard—Are you not proceeding against the prisoner in another court for this very debt ? Mr. Walker—We admit the fact as against Hogg, unfortunately, but we, on discovering that is not his name, can now proceed criminally. Alderman LAWRENCE—Has the list been looked at to see if the-re was a person of doubtful character named Hogg ? Mr. Vyse—Yes, and there is no such name. Mr. George Thirkell, in the service of Messrs. Tr, mil Co., deposed to making inquiries, and find- [PRICE OD. ing what sort of characters both the prisoner and his referee were. John Oakley, the messenger of Whitecross-street Prison, said, that some years since the prisoner lived is Whitecross-street as an engraver, and came to the prison in custody in the name of Brandon. It was his duty to pass the papers for the discharge of pri soners, and he produced the prisoner's discharge in the name of Brandon. At that time he had a wooden leg (he now wears a cork one), and he was discharged twice. By Mr. Beard—l swear I zot his discharge. It may have been by habeas in the Queen's Bench. Mr. Walker—You may be sure of that, fur Mr. Buchanan was the prisoner's solicitor in that name. — (Laughter.) I now ask for a remand, as there are numerous cases which will be established against the prisoner. Alderman LAWRENCE remanded him for a week. Alderman LAWRENCE begged through the medium of the press to acknowledge the receipt of 51. from " It. B." in aid of the funds of the poor- box, for which he was most thankful. MARLBOROUGH-STRE ET. Julia Leahy, a young Irish-woman, with an infant in her arms, was brought before Air. Bingham, charged with having sti.bbed John O'Brien with a knife in the throat, whereby his life is seriously en dangered. _ _ _ From the statement of police-sergeant Mackenzie, B 5, it appeared that about half-past eight o'clock, while on duty at Hyde-park-corner, he received in formation that a man had been stabbed in the park, and that the wounded man had been conveyed to St. George's Hospital. Witness proceeded to the hospital and found there John O'Brien, a labouring man, who appeared to have received a wound in the region of the throat, which had gone through the root of the tongue. The wounded man told him he had been stabbed by the prisoner, who lived in John-street, Edgware-road. Witness proceeded to the prisoner's lodgings, and very soon succeeded in meeting with her. When he mentioned what he came about the prisoner at once admitted that she had inflicted a wound on O'Brien, adding that she hoped he would soon be dead. On the way to the station-house the prisoner said the wounded man was the father of her child ; that he would not allow anything towards its support; and that she had been cbliged to have him before a ma gistrate, and to get an order of affiliation to pay so much per week, which order the man had not obeyed. She met O'Brien on Sunday evening, near St. George's Hospital, and asked him if he meant to do anything for the child ? He told her " the child and herself might be d—d; he would never pay a far thing." After some more conversation he took her info the park, and there some angry words passed, after which the man seized her by the throat and said he would do both for her and the baby. She strug gled with the man, and getting one hand at liberty, she pulled a clasp knife out of her pocket, and having opened it with her teeth, she struck at him with it in the face. She was not conscious that she had done him any serious injury, as O'Brien walked away im mediately afterwards, and did not give any alarm. Witness asked where the knire was ? The prisoner said she dropped it in the park, because it shut on her fingers and cut her. The prisoner, in defence, made a similar statement to that which she had given to the constable. It was in consequence of O'Brien's attack on her that she drew the knife from her pocket with which to defend herself. The surgeon's certificate was handed in. It stet( d that the man O'Brien could not attend in conse quence of a wound in the mouth, which had injured the tongue. In the course of the day a relative of the wounded man called at the court, and said the latter was in a very dangerous state, and the worst result was feared. The prisoner was remanded for a week.

(tom Mir yen till Taw.. ano Imva to F.leht ou r10n(149. from Cloven to HER MAJESTY'S RETURN TO OSBORNE. GLOU CESTER, TUESDAY EVENING. Some rumours have been circulated that her Majesty will travel on her re turn from Scotland by the London and North-Western line, and so pass through the metropolis. This is incor rect, official information having been received that her Majesty and the Royal Family will travel along the Mid land Railway, to its extremity at Gloucester, and thence by the Great Western up to Basingbroke, where she will get upon the South-Western line. The secretary of the Bristol and Birmingham (Midland) Railway yester day had an interview with the mayor of Gloucester (having received instructions for the special trains), to confer with him as to the measures to be adopted for the reception of the royal visitors on their arrival at the Gloucester station. The Queen will leave Edinburgh on Thursday next, and will travel thence as far as Derby on that day. She will rest at Derby, and proceed on wards to Glocester on Friday morning. The royal trains (for there will be two) will only stop once between Derby and Gloucester, viz., at Eckington, a small village station ce!ebrated for its fine water for engineering pur. poses. Here the trains will stop for a few minutes to take in water, and will then pass on to Gloucester, about twenty -three miles further, without stopping at Cheltenham or any intervening station. Her Majesty may be expected to arrive at Gloucester by noon, or early in the afternoon, and a short delay will occur here in consequence of the break of gauge. At Gloucester special trains will be in readiness on the broad gauge, which will convey the Royal party up the Cheltenham and Swindon branch of the Great Western, on to the Great Western main line at Swindon, and thence up to the Basingstoke junction, unless her Majesty should decide to go on to Windsor. It is under stood, however, that her Majesty is very desirous of com pleting the journey to Osborne on Friday. At Glou cester to-day workmen are busily employed in painting and furbishing up the old station approaches, which will be put into as sightly a condition as circumstances will permit. The platform for her Majesty's reception will be laid with carpeting, and every convenience practicable will be put into operation. To night a special meeting of the Gloucester Corporation has been summoned by the mayor, to take into consideration the best means of showing the loyalty and attachment of the citizens to her Gracious Majesty and her illustrious Consort. The Queen does not go into the Birmingham station, but will pass by way of Hampton, in order to avoid the ineonve hi,,nt " lift " from the Derby to the Birmingham level. PEMBROKE ROYAL DOCKYARD.—During the late visit of the Lords of the Admiralty to this establish ment t'ey directed that the new system of individual payment of the dockyard wages, by the storekeepers, shoull be put into operation on the Ist of October next; and in tha interim the various clerks have been ordered to proceed to Woolwich, in order that they may become practically acquainted with the working of the system. The coastguard of the district have been brought to the Pembroke Dockyard by the Skylark revenue cutter, for the purpose of instruction being afforded them in the use of heavy artillery. The men are now undergoing a course of drilling, and the ship gun battery erected for the service of the Royal Dock; and Battalion has been placed at their disposal. When sufficiently advanced in the practice they will be instructed in cartridge firing. It is proposed to convert the house at Hobb's Point, formerly occupied by the agent of packets, into a garri son hospitsl. For this purpose a survey was made by the Lords of the Admiralty during their late visit, but no order as yet has been issued o❑ the subject. The Royal Dockyard Battalion have become most efficient under the able instructions of the officers appointed by Government, and at their late field-day the various evo lutions were performed in a manner that elicited the warmest approbation of the inspecting officer, Colonel Sir Thomas Pasley. SOUTH-WEST MIDDLESEX AGRICULTURAL SO CIETY.—The thirty-fifth annual meeting of the members of this society took place yesterday at Southall, and was attended by a large number of the influential residents in the county. The society has for its object the encouragement of good ploughing, and other agricultural improvements, as well as giving rewards to servants for good conduct and long service. In the morning a ploughing match took place on the farms of Mr. M. Sherborne and Mr. A. Welch, closely contiguous to the Southall station of the Great Western Railway, and priz ss haring been distributed, the proceedings, as usual upon such occasions, wound up with a dinner at the Lion Hotel, Southall. R. H. Cox, Esq., presided, and was supported by Lord Robert Grosvenor, M.P., Captain Cole, Arthur Wood, E , q., the Rev. Dr. Smith, J. Cooper, Esq., E. Montgomery, Esq, and other magis trates of the county. On the walls were many agricul tural devices, and the whole affair, indeed, was tastefully arranged under the superintendence of Mr. Gotelee, of Hounslow, the secretary of the society. The report, presented by Mr. F. Sherborne, the treasurer, stated that the rewards distributed to ploughmen during the past year had amounted to 79/. 55., and to servants, for long service, Sze., 1271. 135., making a total of 2071. THE SANITARY STATE OF BIRMINGUAM.—It ap pears, that in consequence of the prevalence of cholera in Coventry. the troops now quartered in the barracks of that city are to be removed, and guard is to be kept by detachments of infantry from Birmingham. These are to be relieved by a fresh party from Birmingham every seven or ten days, the others returning to their quarters in the midland metropolis. The sanitary committee of the Birmingham poor-law guardians have taken alarm at this arrangement, and a deputation has been appointed to wait upon Colonel Arbuthnot, the commandant of the I district, to remonstrate with him upon the subject. WORSHIP-STREET. John _Rarrait, — ;iiill weather beaten sailor, was charged before Mr. Hammill under the following cir cumstances : A cabman named Plumley stated that he bad just set down a fare at the Euston-square railway terminus on the preceding evening, when he was hailed by a policeman, who directed his attention to the prisoner and another man, the former of whom was in a state of helpless intoxication, and told him that as the sailor was entirely incapable of taking care of himself, he had better receive them both into his cab and take in structions from his friend, who was quite sober, as to where he should convey them to. The prisoner W 23 then helped into the cab with the assistance of his friend, who desired witness to proceed to St. Katharine's Docks, and he accordingly drove them in that direction, but on reaching a street near Fins bury-square, the sober man pulled the check-string and got out, telling him that he must call upon a friend close by, and would be back in a few minutes. After waiting nearly half an hour without seeing any more of him, he opened the cab-door to obtain further instruction from his remaining fare, when he found the prisoner stretched out in the cab, in a state of partect helplessness, with ell his lockets turned inside out. As it was manifest that he had been robbed by his friend, and was too insensible to comprehend anything he said to him, be considered the best course he could adopt was to drive him at once to the police- station, that he might be pro properly taken care of. On being called upon by the magistrate to state what he knew about the transaction, the prisoner said that he had not even the faintest recollection of either the cabman or his vehicle ; but he remembered to his sorrow, that on leaving a messmate, with whom he had been cruising about the New-road, he was picked up by a man who claimed his acquaintance, and that he had then a good round sum in gold and silver in his possession ; but what became of the man whom he had never before seen, he did not know, and upon recovering his senses that morning at the station, he found that the whole of his money was gone, with the exception of a few shillings, which were stowed away in the corner of a side pocket, and had escaped the clutches of the thief. Mr. HAMMILL, after expressing a hope to the pri soner that the loss he had sustained would be a warn ing to him for the future, intimated .to him the ne cessity of devoting his few remaining shillings to the liquidation of the cabman's fare and expenses,. to ' which the poor sailor very readily acceded, and, having I handed over the amount, he was thereupon ordered to be discharged. LAMBETH. Yesterday Stephen Alfred Downland, who stands charged with a most determined attempt to murder a young woman named Sarah Harriet Evans, on Dulwich-common, by first cutting her throat with a razor and then striking her repeatedly with the but end of a pistol, was again placed at the bar before Mr. Elliot for futher examination. Sergeant Thomas Pitchard, 22 P, informed the magistrate that he had been to Guy's Hospital that morning, and seen the young woman Evans, but she was not in a fit state to attend, and he in consequence procured the following certificate as to her present condition : " I hereby certify that Sarah Harriet Evans is still in a precarious state, but progressively improving. " CHARLES SAUNDERS, " Assistant to Mr, B. B. Cooper. " Guy's Hospital, Sept. 25." Mr. ELmoT—Has Mr. Saunders given any opinion as to the period at which the young woman will be able to attend ? Pitchard--lle has not, sir. Mr. ELLIOTT—Then I bhall remand the prisoner for another week. Mr. Games—l attend on the part of the prisoner, and I have no objection whatever to offer against such a course. The prisoner, who has a very youthful expression, and who, as on the last examination, appeared per fectly indifferent, was remanded for a week. "THE LORD OF THE MA'NOR'"—The forthcoming work, announced by Mr. Shoberl, from the powerful pen of the author of " Baby Rattler," is said to be one of thrilling interest, and founded upon fact. Its plot ii stated to be at once startling and extraordinary, and ar rangements are even thus early in progress for drama tising it at our national theatres. One of the principal objects of the writer is to pourtray the horrible conse quences of vice—and thus to ameliorate the condition of society—to show the hapless situation of that man who is so unfortunate as to fall into the trammels of a bold, bad woman, ready for the comm ission of any crime. The readers of works of fiction will, 'no doubt, look forward with impatience to its publication. THE ST. PANCRAS BOARD OF GUARDlANS.—Yes terday a very numerous meeting of the board of direc tors and guardians of the poor of St. Pancras was held at the new vestry-room, King's road, Camden-town. Mr. Churchwarden Healey presided, and a long discussion arose upon the question whether the parish authorities should yield obedience to the order of the Board of Health, requiring them to adopt the house-to-ho use sys tem of visitation. The Chairman, Mr. Hickman, and other speakers contended that system was calculated to do more harm than good, from the alar m it create d , an d that the parish authorities of St. Pancras had done everything they could for the prev e nti o n o f c h o l e r a , by early treatment of the premonitory s y m ptoms. Mr. Liddle, on behalf of the Board of Health, pressed for an immediate compliance with its order. It was ultimately agreed that an additional inspector of nuisances should be appointed, but no provision for house visitation was agreed to. On Ist October, with FRONTISPIECE by LEECH, price 23. 6d.
