No. 5, St. Mikired's-court, Poultry, Sept. 15, 1842. TUE. Death of Mr. ROBERT MUDIE has left a Widow and Five young Children in a state of utter 'destitution. Without friends, without a home, and bereft of all but hope, they venture most respectfully to appeal to the benevolence of the public, and to the generous sympathies of those to whom the deceased may have been once known, or who Lave been instructed or amused by his works. Mr. Mudie was a native of Forfarshire. in Scotland. He was in the strictest sense self-educated, and won his way to knowledge and considerable renown by the energy of his talents. For urwards of thirty years he devoted himself to literary and scientific pursuits; first as a teacher of youth, and afterwards in a great number and variety of works; the most iCenerally popular and successful of which have been his volumes " Natural History" and the " Seasons."

CONSPIRACY.—The trial of Percival Hamilton Chamberlayne, George Fuller, Jane Sophia Matilda Fuller, and Win. Napier Reeve, which occupied the whole of yesterday, was resumed to-day. The defen dants were charged with conspiring together to bring a false charge of felony and misdemeanour against the prosecutor, Thomas Alley Jones, who was last session tried upon an indictment brought against him by the defendants, charging him with felony, and acquitted. It appeared that the defendant Fuller earried on the business of a shawl dealer and silk-mercer, in Re gent-street, in 1840, and in the beginning of 1841 he became in embarrassed circumstances, and subse quently some negotiation took place between him and the prosecutor, with a view to arrange his affairs. Ultimately a fiat of bankruptcy - was issued, which was, however, set aside, and the defendant Chamber layne, who was Fuller's father-in-law, then entered up judgment, upon a warrant of, attorney, for 1,6001., credited by Fuller, and a sale of his effects took place under that instrument. During this p roceeding the prosecutor prosecutor acted as Full er ' s legal adviser, and when the sale ,took place it appe are d t h at he purchase d some trifling articles at the su ggest i on of the de f en d ant, Chamberlayne, and also a mousseline de laine dress for a young lady named Laurence. It seems that subsequently a difference took place between all the parties, and Mr. Jones brought an action against Chamberlayne to recOer a sum of 6001., al leged to be due to hinrfor mcatey advanced, and for his legal services. Shortly before this action was tried a warrant was obtained to search the premises of Mr. Jones, and also of Mr. Laurence, the father of the lady above alluded to ;. and the defendants Chamber layne and Fuller, accompanied by a policeman, made a search and took away some blacking-brushes, a po matum pot, and oth er littl e ar ti c l es . which they ac cused Mr. - Jones of stealing, and he underwent an examination upon that charge at the. Kensington Police Court, and the result was that Mr. Jones was held to bail, and was subsequently tried at this Court and acquitted upon both the charges that were pre ferred against him. The defendant Reeve, who, it appears, was a solicitor, and acted in that capacity for the assignees under the fiat of bankruptcy, had at tended at the police-office in support of the charge, and took other steps in connexion with it, and the women had, it appeared, •given some testimony at the police-office when the charge of felony was gone into. .1 prosecutor now swore positively, that he had pur chased some of the articles alleged to have been stolen 'by him at the sale, and with regard to a pair of snuffers and tray, which it was alleged he had stolen, he • proved that he had given those articles to the pri sorier Chamberlayne. The prosecutor underwent a severe cross-examina tion, but nothing material was elicited to shake his testimony, and the evidence given by him was con firmed by Miss Laurence, the auctioneer who con ducted the sale, and other persons. A great number of witnesses were called to prove these facts ; and at the close of the case for the prose cution, The RECORDER intimated his opinion that, however rashly Mr. Reeve might have acted by lending him self to the suggestions of the other defendants, yet he did not think that his conduct amounted to the offence imputed to him by the present indictment, of having knowingly made a false and unfounded charge of fe lony against the . prosecutor. Mr. BODKIN, on behalf of the prosecution, said he concurred in the view of the case taken by the Court, and consented that Mr. Reeve should be acquitted. Mr. P HILLIPS a dd resse d the Jury in a powerful speech, com men ti ng severe ly upon the conduct of the prosecutor, who, he submitted t° the Jury, was un worthy of credit. '['he defendant (Fuller) read a long address, in which he declared that the prosecutor had been the cause of the ruin of himself and his family. Witnesses were called who gave the defendants a good character. Mr. BODKIN replied. The R ECORDER t h en summe d up, and in the course of his address he expressed his opinion that if the case rested solely upon the evidence of the prosecutor, they would not be bound to return a verdict of guilty, and he'said that h e th oug ht th e con duct of the prosecutor in interf er i ng w ith th e pro p er ty of the defendant Fuller, when he was in a state of embarrassment, and . in taki ng a n y porti on o f hi s property, e ven by pur chase, was most improper. The Jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of CluiltY against Fuller and Chamberlayne. The trial was not concluded until a quarter pas' eleven o'clock.

Can insurers get superior, equal, or less actual be nefit, in a Bonus Society, than from establishments on other principles ? Adduce the man who, in 1817, insured at 30, for 1001. in the Equitable (here only specifically named as the leading type of the Bonus class)-the annual premium then and now 21. 13s. 6d. In 1840, what were his prospects ? He had paid twenty-four times 2/. 13s. 6d., i. e. 641. 45., improved at four per cent. in terest to 104/. 10s. 11d., the amount virtually outlaid: and has still to pay yearly 21. 13s. 6d. Thus the So ciety have 104/. 10s. 11d. in hand, and further derive from him 61. 17s. 2d. annually (i. e. the '2l. 13s. 6d. and 4/. 3s. sa. int eres t on sum save d). For these he is promised 1001. at death, and 221. 10s. Bonus, made up of two and a half per cent. per annum, from 1831, (the earliest time at which Insurers after 1816 became entitled to any Bonus), to 1840, together with 122/. 10s. with a prospective two and a half per cent. if he die before 1850. Modern rates, if taken in 1817 (as by the ASYLUM Company since 1824), with out Bonus, would be, premium 2/. 25., sum paid 501. Bs., improved to 821. ls. 6d., yielding interest 31. ss.

A Policy before 1817 would be at a period when fluctuation in the value of money afforded means of investment which it would be sheer speculation to expect to recur, and a more recent Insurance might have no Bonus. It is notorious that the Equitable has afforded the greatest actual and comparative Bonuses of which the system is capable. It may seem unanswerable, that if Proprietary Com panies make a profit, Mutual Assurers without Pro prietary must have such profit returned to themselves. This can never he the case--every sound Society will have a collected fund, to counteract specific contin gencies in deaths. Proprietors furnish this by forming a capital, and the premiums necessary for deaths and expenses are increased to yield interest to Proprietors for the use of such capital. But in a Mutual Society, no ca pital being present, higher premiums must be charged to provide a " Reserve Fund," and of course this can only be founded on such part of the high premium as deaths and expenses do not consume, consequently the Assured can never have all the savings returned, because a portion must be held back to sustain the reserved fund, and this portion, as above shown, ex ceeds in practice what a just Proprietary need re quire as profit on subscribed capital. In brief, the Assured pay to a sound Proprietary excess to yield mere interest: in Mutual Associations a capital itself has to be created and sustained from time to time by excess of premium. It is clear, therefore, that more must be retained from the Assured to form and sus tain a reserved fund, than Proprietors need exact as interest for a capital already furnished. The above, more in detail, may be had at the Asylum-office, on inquiring for Paper on " Bonus Systems." The most rational motives to Lye Assurance are found in the plan adopted by this Society ; viz. joined to a secure Provision at death for inheritors of the Assured, the Society affords succour to the Assured himself (proportioned to pre. vious payments) in the event of unforeseen reverses.

The wretched man, who upon the preceding night gave himself a severe wound in the throat in attempting to destroy himself, fell in a fit upon being charged, and was conveyed to the in firmary in the Giltspur-street Compter, and the neces ; nary directions were issued by the Lord Mayor, at ; the request of Mr. Freshfield, as ,to' the future pro ceedings. Yesterday, when Liscomb, the ticket-porter, ap peared, the Lord Mayor read to him a written state ment, which had been made l2y Mr. Palmer. It was to the following effect :—On the 16th instant, Lis comb brought a note to Mr. Palmer, requesting that a cheque-hook might be sent by the hearer to Messrs. Deane and Hatton, in Leadenhall- market. The document was no sooner produced than its genuine ness was doubted, upon comparing the writing in the note with that in the book, and the suspicion was confirmed by the substitution " 31" in the place of " 21," the number of the house of the firm. Mr. Palmer subsequently asked Liscomb of whom he had had the note, to which question the reply was that he had received it from Mr. Deane. Mr. Palmer then handed him a book, and desired him to write down his name, and lie became agitated, and said he did not know whether it was Mr. Deane or Mr. Hat ton that gave - him the note. Finding that the matter would be followed up, he then confessed that neither Mr. Deane nor 1\ fr. Hatton had employed him upon the occasion,. and he pointed out. Hoz.kins, the porter to the Drawing-office in the ,Bank, as the individual who had sent him on the errand. The Loup MAYOR said the transaction required much deeper investigation, and desired to hear what Liscomb had to say. Liscomb declared in the most solemn manner he was not aware that he had been employed in a suspi cious affair, and appealed to the unexceptionable cha racter which he had maintained for a great number of years in the City of London, as proof that he could have no dishonest purpose. The LORD MAYOR—Where are you in the habit of standing to be hired as a ticket porter ? Liscomb— In Gracechurch-street. The LORD MAYOR—Why should .Hoskins go all the way to Gracechurch-street to hire a ticket porter to go to the Bank with such an order ? Liscomb—l don't know. I thought there could be no harm in going, as . I knew him. He pointed out the place to which I was to go, and he told me he would wait for me. I declare to God I never thought there was any thing wrong in the business, and the moment I sus pected at the Bank that there was, I told the gentle man that I'd show him the man who employed me. His Lordship then sent for Mr. Teague the Solici tar's Clerk to the Ticket Porter's Fellowship, and re presented the circumstances to him: Mr. Teague said, he had been informed of the part which Liscomb had acted in the matter, and it cer tainly struck him that the prisoner was implicated with Hooking. Mr. nobler observed, that the ticket porters were frequently entrusted with very large sums of money, and the Society wished, as a matter of course, to enter into an investigation under their Chairman, Sir Mat time Wood, for it was necessary that a ticket porter should be above all suspicion. Liscomb—The fact is that I am here because I told a lie. It was a lie without meaning, but I had no right to tell it. I can bring forward several per sons of the first respectability, to speak of the excel lence of my character.

SIR WALTER SCOTT AND A SCOTCH BLACKSMITH. —lt happened, at a small country town, that Scott sud denly required medical advice for one of his servants, and, on inquiring if there was any doctor at the place, he was told there were two, one long established and the other a new comer. The latter gentleman, being luckily found at home, soon made his appearance—a grave, sagacious looking personage, attired in black, with a shovel hat, in whom, to his utter astonishment, Sir Walter recognised a S cotch blacksmith, who had formerly practised, with tolerable success, as a veterinary a operator in the neighbourhood of Ashestiel. "how, in ;the world 1" exclaimed he, " can it be possible that this is John Lundie ?" "In troth, is't, your honour ; just a' that's of him." " Well, but let us hear; you wero a horse-doctor before ; now, it seems, you are a man doctor ; how do you get rn ?" " Ou, just ex traordinar wee'; for your honour maun ken my practice is very sure and orthodox. I depend entirely upon twa simples." " And what may their names be ? Perhaps it is a secret." " I'll tell your honour," in a low tone ; "my twa simples are lust laudarny and calamy." " Simples with a vengeance !" replied Scott. " But, John, do you never happen to kill any of your patients ?" " Kill ? Oh ay, may be sae ! Whiles they die, and whiles no ; but it's the will of Providence.

When before e Magis trate last Thursday, the prisoner saidAlfak he and his wife had been drinking for many hours together ; that at tea his wife suddenly got up, seized a knife, and attempted to stab the prisoner, when he knocked her down ; and that was the only violence he was guilty of. A coroner's jury afterwards returned an open verdict Yesterday, Mr. James, the house-surgeon of West minster Hospital, after giving his evidence, said, that if ho was to give an opinion as to the cause of death he should be more inclined to state that the deceased's death was attributable more to intoxication and ulti mate excitement than violence. The appearances at the post mortem examination justified such an opinion. Mr. BURRELL, after examining several witnesses, decided that there was ne hope of even a charge of manslaughter holding good against the prisoner, and discharged him. _ _ _ ame. The LORD MAYOR—You must leave your ticket with me, and you are bound over in the sum of 1001. to appear here on Saturday next, when Hoskins is to be brought up for re-examination. A man of the name of Edward Smith, was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having been concerned with Shacklesford, who had been commit ted for trial, and others, in defrauding several trades men of goods, to a large amount. Mr. Goddard, solicitor to the prosecutor of Shacklesford, attended against the prisoner, who ap peared undefended. Mr. Goddard said, that from the evidence against Shacklesford, it appeared that Beaumont, who was re presented as the principal of a trading concern at Maid stone, and other persons, were in the habit of meeting at the tap of the Bull and Mouth Inn, Aldersgate street, and dividing money amongst them, the pro duce, it was believed, of the sale of the property gained by the transactions detailed in the examina tions at the Mansion House. Amongst the individuals who assembled upon these occasions was the prisoner Edward Smith. The prisoner—Not I ; I never was amongst them ; I never had any transactions with them. William Kimbrell stated that he had been pot-boy at the Bull and Mouth tap up to July last. He knew the prisoner well, having seen him frequently in the tap with Beaumont, Shacklesford, and three or four other men. He had seen the prisoners and the others open parcels which were brought in, and which contained goods, such as silk handkerchiefs, scarfs, and drapery goods. The prisoner, who seemed as if he came to buy goods, divided money amongst them all out of a bag. Mr. Goddard—Did you know who they were at the time ? Witness—No. I had no idea they were swindlers.—(A laugh.) Mr. Goddard—And you are sure the prisoner was one of the gentlemen ? Witness—Certainly. I've seen him take away parcels, and I've taken away one parcel for him myself. Mr. Goddard -Is this one of the parties your mis tress disapproved of? Witness—Certainly he is. Prisoner—l had nothing whatever to do with Shacklesford and his party. The LORD MAYOR called to Gooch, the principal gaoler of the Compter, and asked him whether he knew the prisoner. Gooch—l know him well, my Lord. The LORD MAYOR—Has he been imprisoned in the Conipter. Gooch—Yes, mylord ;-be served out a twelvemonth there some years ago. The prisoner—l solemnly assure your Lordship that I never had any dealings with Shacklesford, Beaumont, or Charles Edward Smith. I admit that I have been at the Bull and Mouth transacting busi ness. I have met travellers there, and purchased goods of them, and I defy any one to say .I know anything of the parties spoken of. The LORD MAYOR—YOU have heard what the pot-boy • says? The prisoner—Yes, my Lord, my transactions were quite distinct from those of the per sons he describes. I can bring forward a party to prove the truth of what I say. The LoaD MAYOR—I shall require you to find bail. You must produce two sureties of .50/. each, and be bound yourself in the sum of 1001., to appear at the Sessions and twenty-four hours' notice of ba il. , Mr. Goddard ; yp u must. give The prisoner—l can't procure bail.

Mr. Thomas Green, Mr. Young Green, his son, and Mr. Richard Wright, entered proprietors of a sugar-making manufactory, situated in Bolingbroke road, Battersea, were summoned to appear at this Court yesterday, to answer to an Excise information, which contained no less than six counts, charging them with offences against the Excise laws. The defendants failed to appear, but deputed Mr. Druce, a solicitor, and the clerk to an attorney, to defend them. Robert Francis, the first witness sworn, said he was an Excise officer. He gave proof of the service of the summons, after which he proceeded to make the following statement :—The defendants had for some time past carried on the business of sugar-makers, and as such they were entered by the Excise. The firm appeared to be a respectable one ; but still the witness, whose duty it was as an Excise officer to enter defendants' premises, had his suspicions aroused by seeing a quantity of liquor occasionally fermenting. This unusual and suspicious occurrence caused the witness to make a complaint to Mr. Metheringham, the supervisor, and on 30th of May last they went to the defendants' premises in Bolingbroke-row, Battersea. Witness and the supervisor searched the house, and found in the cellar 4.5 gallons of plain British spirits, or low wines, and in a small room on the ground floor 35 gallons of the same Material. All this was seized. After the search had continued for some time they found a still, and they examined the steam boiler, and found it in every respect fitted up as a still. In it they found a quantity of wash. This, to gether with all other utensils on the premises was seized. An evaporating-tub was found, nearly filled with water, and in its centre was placed an overflow pipe, which was quite unnecessary in the manufacture of sugar. Defendants came into the premises at this time. Mr. Wright said it was an experiment. Mr. T. Green said he was ruined—it was a last resource ; and Mr. Y. Green said they were driven to it. Mr. Wright afterwards said that Mr. Thomas Green sug gested the experiment, and wished it to be tried ; and Mr. T. Green, in reply, said it was Wright's fault. The three conjointly afterwards said the altera tion in the sugar duties had ruined them about four months previous to the seizure. Witness had seen a quantity of wash fermenting upon the premises and spoken to Mr. Wright about.it, who said he had put something to it to make it ferment. 'Witness ex plained to him that it was very improper to ferment wash or syrup, and asked what he intended to do with it, and Mr. Wright said he was trying to pro duce an article proper for the bottoms of British wines, and when he had seen the effect he should destroy it. The witness requested to be present when the destruction took place, and it was agreed he should, but previous to the day appointed the wash was removed. Another time the witness saw a quan tity of wash fermenting, and one of the defendants said it was caused by the heat of the weather. The witness, at the conclusion of his evidence, produced a sample I of the spirit seized. _ The Supervisor pressed only for one penalty, namely, 1001.; and that was inflicted by Mr. Paynter, the Magistrate.

GERMAN CUSTOMS UNION..—It is said that the con ferences of the Commissioners of the German Customs Union at Stutgard, are drawing to a close, and will pro bably not be protracted beyond the 24th of September; the questions already decided are in the press. It is asserted that the Commissioners have not suffered them selves to be led to a system of prohibition into which some localities and certain German journals desired to force them ; and that they have made very few changes in the tariff of the Union. Among other things we heJr— and this is a point in which Belgium is much interested — they resisted the importunities of the iron manufactur ers, wha demand a much higher protection for their trade than it at present enjoys.

In the course of a case heard yesterday at Guil6- i hall polidc•-office, Mr. Venables, a butcher in New ' gate-market, ili;..ving given his evidence, Sir Peter Laurie mid he was glad to get informs : flow from practical men. He wished to know whether the importation of foreign cattle was decreasing or increasing ? • Mr. Venables said it was increasing. There ware 'some very fine Spanish cattle in Smithfield-market ' yesterday. The price paid in Spain was very low, and the importers had made a good profit. Sir Peter asked if an importation from Spain bad been expected ? • Mr. Venables said certainly not, on account or the length of the voyage; but they came in good cum , - dition for killing. No foreign meat, however, ws equal to our own. Sir Peter said he had recently visited Belgium and llolland, and the cattle thereabout seemed to him to be in excellent condition. Mr. Venables said, what we have receiVed from that quarter was certainly very fine ; but they put ten beasts to graze on a plot that would be given to three in England. An acre of land would only sup port one beast and a sheep. Sir Peter asked what reduction had been effected in the price of meat ? Mr. Venables replied, a halfpenny a pound ; prices would never rise again above the present level, and it was 'clear they must go lower in a year or eighteen months. Large quantities of American salt pork were coming in. It was a very superior article, and the sale would be extensive. At the Barnet fair just closed no cattle could he sold but at a reduction of 31. a head On the last year's prices. On the last day of the fair 22,000 cattle remained unsold, while on the same day of the last year not one head remained unsold as early as two o'clock. Sir Peter asked what would become of the unsold beasts? Mr. Venables said they would' be driven about to other fidrs, and sold at the same reduction of a a heal. The graziers were suffering • now, b u t ulti mately the landlords must bear the lose. . Sir. Peter thanked him for the infermation h e ed • derived. CORONERS' INQUESTS. MYSTERIOUS DEATH FROM AiSENK. — Laiit night an inquiry, which lasted several hours, was gone into before. Payne, at the Bridge-house, Borough road, on the body of Joseph Bowler, a chairmaker, aged 29, who died from the effects of arsenic under the following tnysterious circumstances Charlotte Trott, of No. 23, Union-street, Borough road, said the deceased and his 'wife resided next door to her.. On Saturday evening last, between nine and ten o'clock, a young man named Dunston came to her, and said the deceased, who had been ill from the Wednesday, had fallen out of bed, and wished her to assist him in lifting him into bed. She immediately went, and on lifting the deceased up found he was dead.. Dunston, who lodged in the house, went to Mr. Coalthery, the surgeon. Mr. Coalthery, of No. 4, Melton-terrace, said he was called to see the deceased on Saturday night, at No. 22, Union-street, and found him dead. Ile had since . made a post mortem examination, and on open • ing the stomach, found slough two inches long and one wide, intermixed with several white particles, which, on testing, he found to be arsenic. The couse of death was the ulceration of the stomach from th e action of the arsenic, which consisted of three or four grains of the white oxyde. He must have suffered dreadfully, and in his opinion it could not have been many hours in the stomach. It might have been as long as 10 or 12 hours, or not more than 20 minutes. The wife told him the deceased had been ill from the Wednesday, and that she had given him some tinc ture of rhubarb, which she had procured at his shop on the Thursday morning. Now he (Mr. C.) could posittVely'agsert that she never had, any from his shop. She also said the deceased partook of some apple-pud ding on the Wednesday, and immediately after began vomiting. By the Jury•-•;-I knew the wife, but had not seen her for two months, when I attended her in her con finement. The wife said she came to my shop about nine o'clock, as soon as it was open. Now, it so oc curred that the shop was open at seven, and from that time until eight lam constantly in the shop. I think if arsenic had been in the pudding it must have been mixed with the apples, and not with the crust, some of which I have got. I did not ask if she had eaten any. If the arsenic was in the pudding on Wednes day, it was at too remote a period to have caused death. Several witnesses were examined at great length, who made the case one of great mystery, and from them the following was elicited .—That the deceased wa in distress relative to a loan ; and it was attempted to be shown that it was not unlikely he had committed suicide ; but being ill a-bed from the Wednesday un til his death, no one could form any idea how the ar senic was found in the inside. The wife and Dunston, the lodger, were examined at great length, the former prevaricating as to her going to Mr. oalthery's shop for three-pennyworth of " stuff," and was flatly contradicted by the assis tant, who denied that she ever came. The inquest, which has caused a great sensation in the neighbourhood, was aejourned. SUDDEN DEATH AT THE SWAN WITH Two NECKS, LAD -LANE.---Yesterday afternoon Mr. l'a ne held an inquest at the above inn, on view of the body of Richard Carberry, aged 65. Robert John Carberry, deceased's son, stated that his tlither had been for many Sears a merchant carry ing o►► business in Calcutta, but he had recently re tired, and was residing in England About five o'clock yesterday morning witness accompanied de ceased to the Swan with Two Necks, Lad-lane, from whence deceased was to be conveyed by omnibus to the Birmingham Railway terminus, in Euston•square. There was no one in the ►nn yard when they arrived, nor could they make any body hear. Deceased sud denly perceived a light through a grating, and stooped down to endeavour to attract the attention of some one. While he was so engaged a young man entered at the inn yard gate. Witness went towards him, and at that moment heard deceased exclaim, " Oh, Robert ;" and turning round saw him till to the ground apparently in a fit. Medical aid was imme diately procured, but deceased died almost instan taneously. Mr. Edward Harrison Linnekar, of .Aldermanbury, surgeon, stated that he was called in to attend de ceased, but not before life was completely extinct. There was no doubt he had died from the bursting of a blood•vessel either of the heart or the brain. Verdict—" Natural death." A very serious accident happened on board her Majesty's steamer Black Eagle, which formed part of the Royal squadron, on its way to Scotland. 11 - heu the'sfeamer arrived off the Cocket Islands, on the Northumbrian coast, and while towing the Royal yacht ahead of the Shearwater, she was cased for a short time for the purpose of lubricating the engines, and, being set in motion too suddenly again, the tow-rope broke, and nearly forced overboard Mr. John Allen, the. pilot, of London, who was standing close to the bollards abaft the paddle-box, to which the rope was attached. The pilot, however, escaped drowning, but at the expense of his legs ; the rope flew round them when it snapped, and broke both his legs, lacerating them in a dreadful manner. Iler Grace the Duchess of Norfolk, who was on board, no sooner heard of the accident than she came upon deck, and felt particularly interested for the unfor tunate pilot, and directed that every possible atten tion should be paid to him. A surge on . who wzis on board rendered him all the assistance.m his power, and upon the arrival of the squadron at Leith, Mr. Allen was taken ashore, and was conveyed by Mr. Nathaniel Knight, of Rotherhithe, the pilot of the Lightning steamer, to the infirmary at Edinburgh, where he still remains. The last account s of Allen are that he is doing well, but it is not possible he will ever recover the use of his, legs again. Mr. Allen is an old and skilful pilot, and has been I h con ducting ships up find down the river Thames, and along the coast, for 35 y ears. He i s now upwar ds of 60 years of age, an d it is understood that, in conse quence of his advaticed years, and the serious accident he has met with in the Queen's service, which must for ever incapacitate him from acting as a pilo t a liberal pension will la! granted bylher jes ts,Ma again, P vernment. The Duchess of Norfolk • . a Go 'ter Mr. Allen during her st ay • "'quire(' .daily at. in Scotland and has inte :ested herself very warml 3• • in his behalf. 1,„, -DON FLORICULTURAL S the fifth annual show of th e Loit ocdon it.7-resterday Floricultural So ciety wah held at th e Crown and Anchor Tavern, Strand.
