Plum• ridge, K.C.8., president, to inquire into the circrim. stances under which her Majesty's troop-ship Belleisle was ruu ashore on the Englishman's Shoal when passing down the Bosphorus at about 6 a.m. on the morning of the 12th of June, 1856, and to try Commander Jamef. Hosken and Mr. Henry Hutchings, master, both of that ship, for their conduct on that occasion. After bearing witnesses and continuing the inquiry for several hours, the court was of opinion that blame was attributable to both Commander Hosken and Mr. Hutchings, the master, and adjudged the said Commander Hosken to be admonished to be more careful in future; and, in con sideration of the long services of Mr. Hutchings, and the good certificates he produced, did only adjudge him to be severely reprimanded, and admonished to be more careful in future, • • NEWSPAPER the affitirs;EL f ki '%; t4 ' v %,04' • It THE AFFATAS OP SPAIN ' 4 4 •--"-'•`' ) , • ‘^-;‘ w "l' • . • •., 7A.0.

We cannot be lieve that the public opinion of this country will acquiesce in the judgment of the Tuileries, bat, as France seems not likely to convert approval into active interference, and as England has long aban doned the notion that liberal institutions can be established in any land by foreign intervention, the disagreement is, perhaps, more speculative than practical. Treating,. then, the ar icle in the Moni teur as merely an essay on a point of contemporary politics, we may be allowed to remark on what seem to us its erroneous views of a country which ..,. has, for many years been the subject of attention, but is even now but little understood. What are the occurrences which within the last few days have agitated Spain ? A Constitutional Queen, who holds her title to the Crown by legal enactment against a relative claiming by divine right, has suddenly dismissed, or caused to resign, the Minister who during' his whole career has bees the champion of responsible government in hit dominions. Another politician, known only as a resolute and unscrupulous soldier, has been xaised to supreme power. This substitution of a notori • ously Absolutist Minister for a man of strictly con stitutional views would seem to a foreigner a dan gerous act. We might, however, be in the wrong. But when we see the actual and immediate results we can no longer hesitate as to the character of the change. We find that insurrection immediately fol lowed in Madrid, and that for this insurrection the new Government was thoroughly prepared before hand. We find that O'Donnell, taking advantage of his position as Minister of War, had concen trated 20,000 men on the capital. His first step was to surround himself with colleagues who had two years before, when for a few hours in office, turned the cannon of the army against the people. The first act of the new Ministry was the proclamation of martial law. The Legislative As sembly was dis persed by force, fired upon when proceeding in depntation to the presence of the Sovereign, and driven from their legal place of meeting bygrape shot. `We 'find thii - Capital in arms t o resist this treasonable violation of public laiv and we hea r o f a desperate cont es t, i n w hi c h the National Guard, after several hour s ' fi g hti ng , are crushed by the large forces concentrated on Madrid. The next intelli gence is that the Cortes have fled to a provincial town. AT.ragon receives the national assembly, which declares that it has been dispersed by a monstrous act of military violence. Barcelona is soon in revolt, and the flame spreads. At the pre sent moment S tragoSsa is held by an insurgent army, and we learn that in the south Malaga and Granada have not yet submitted. The Ministry is intent on crushing all resistance to its power, and everything is postponed until "after the pacification of the country." Such are the facts. The Sovereign and her confidant concentrate troops, disperse and fire on the Legislature, fight a pitched battle with the National Guard, and are now engaged. in crush ing the liberalism of the provinces. The question is, what are we to think of suck an act ? The Moniteur is especially desirous of one thing —that it should not be called a coup d'etat. It appears that some journals, " blinded by an un warrantable preference for a name," have called the affair we have just described a coup d'etat. To this the Moniteur takes exception. It was merely the resignation of one Minister and the • substitution of another, and could by no means bo justly called a coup d'etat. Not that the Moniteur wishes to exclude the Spanish Court more than any other from occasional recourse to such an ex pedient, for it proceeds to lay down the cases in which it is legitimate. But the acts of the Queen and O'Donnell, it seems, do not constitute a coup d'etat. Now, we have no wish to argue on the precise signification of this popular phrase. Neither the words nor the idea they express are English, and we may beside well concede to the Moniteur stricter accuracy in the use of a political termi nology which it has borne no small part in creat ing. Whether, then, O'Donnell has or has not executed a coup d'etat, he has, by violence and in pursuance of a premeditated plan, dispersed the Legislature, disbanded the National Guard, and overthrown the constitutional liberties of the country. We cannot think that this is a gratify ing conclusion to all the struggles and sacrifices of Spain during more than 20 years. We cannot think that the man who has committed this act can be fitly deszibed as " having attempted to restore order to Spain, as the first and most indispensable basis of liberty." Knowing, as we do from expe rience, that repression must- roduce corresponding resistance, and that, however extended and strong it may be, the reaction must come at last, we are far from feeling that "it is natural to bail with sympathy a change of a nature to consolidate the throne of Isabella II." It is not to be denied that on the continent Eng land is in many minds the object of suspicion, on the ground of a supposed selfish and Machiavellian policy. We who know our own country, how little the people care about foreign affairs, and how completely in this their Government represents them, can hardly conceive that the actions of even well-informed continental politicians are swayed by a notion that England is always on the watch for the extension of her influence iu Spain, in Portu gal, Italy, and the East. The French politicians of Louis Philippe's time was always haunted with the notions of combinations against France, in which England, supreme over the second-rate States, should take the lead. This notion, as wild as that of the bourgeois about England's desire to monopolise the commerce of the world, was once widely prevalent, and seems to have left some traditions even after it has itself passed away. One of these is the dislike,of Espartero, which has dis tinguished successive French Governments, regal, republican, and imperial. The character of this well-meaning old gentleman is well known. He has proved himself during a long career an honest, brave, and good-hearted man, with principles to which he has always been ready to sacrifice his personal interests. His defects have been timidity and irresolution at a sudden crisis, a want of fore sight, and a nature easily imposed upon by the kind of persons with whom he was likely to be sur rounded at the Court of Madrid. A politician who does not feel the great truth that men are bound to him, not by what they have received, but by what they expect, is hardly likely to be long in office anywhere. Espartero is one of these, and, consequently, he has now to lament—if it he of any use—the ingratitude of the Queen, the King, and of O'Don ne ll hi mse l f, his own familiar disciple. This is the man who, according to notions now a quarter of a century old, is the repre sentative of British influence at Madrid. It is need less to say that he has never done anything fur us in Spain, since, of course, there is nothing that wo wish done. Beyond our rock of Gibraltar we hold nothing on Spanish, or, ind ee d, on C on ti nen t a l ground, and our only interest in Spain is that there should be a stable Government, under which the people should live happily and develope themselves and their resources in their own way. Nor have Englishmen any wish to uphold a constitution merely because it is a copy of their own. The time is past for any such partiality. For 70 years we have seen the venerable institutions of this kingdom mimicked with every variety of the sad, the horrible, and the burlesque, by the unprepared intelligence of two hemispheres. We look to the establishment of Upper and Lower Chambers, the inauguration of Presidents, and the regulation of Parliamentary procedures, only with feelings of apprehension and distrust. Neither from any hope of material ad vantage, nor from any ambition for influence and prestige, nor from any national vanity, have the people of this country given their sympathies to the cause of moderato government in Spain, and to the man who, to the best of his ability, has been its constant supporter. Yet it is difficult to say how much a supposed identity with British interests may not have injured that liberal cause which for the present seems so utterly wrecked.—Times. From the London Gazette of Last Night. and to which the attention of the authorities was first called in these reports. 10,689 deaths were registered in Yorkshire, and of that number 1,35 S occurred in Bradford, to a population of 181,961 in 1851; 1,213 were registered in Leeds and Hunslet ; 695 wore registered in Sheffield. The 5,834 deaths in the northern counties slightly ex ceed in number the deaths in either of the two previous spring quarters. Smallpox and scarlatina have prevailed. Vaccination is evidently neglected among the colliers. The mortality increased in Durham and in Northumber land, decreased in Cumberland and in Westmoreland. In Wales and Monmouthshire 6,781 deaths wore regis tered ; the deaths in the previous spring quarter were 7,392. Smallpox and scarlatina have prevailed epidemi cally in some districts. At this season of the year, when many people are tra velling on the continent, as well as in England, it may be useful to state that it is now well established by extensive observation that England is the healthiest country in Europe. France stands next to England in salubrity. In the continental cities the annual rate of mortality is sel dom less than 30 in 1,030 ; and the rate frequently rises to 40 in 1,000. In London the rate of mortality is 25 in ' 1,000.

The Jersey shipwrights and others who have been t e u nga tesgefdorbytAess the eL rs Y ond o o u n n u g, ll Sz, n rn l men n d ori agae., a strike, resumed übessumsetai their work yesterday, in Limehouse Dock, and were not interrupted or ill-used ; but owing to the threats of the union men, their savage and outrageous conduct to the men from the outports on Saturday, and the general hostile attitude of the union shipwrighte, 100 police-con stables, under the control of Mr. Howie, Superintendent of the K division, were stationed in and about Messrs. Young's premises the whole of the day, and a large re serve of the Thames poice in Wapping, the M division in Southwark, the H division in \Yhitechapel, and the G division in Finsbury, were assembled at the respec tive station-houses the whole of Monday and yesterday, and will be mustered again to day. Sir Richard Mayne and Captain Harrison (assistant commissioner of police) visited Lirnehouse on Monday, and the most perfect arrangements have been made for the preservation of the public peace, and to secure the freedom of labour, and the free exercise of the will of those who think proper to accept the terms offered by Messrs. Young, Son, and Megnay. Some of the new hinds from Southampton, who were cruelly mal-treat ed by the London men on Saturday, being afraid of a repetition of this outrage, did not come to work on Monday ; but having ascertained that they would be effectually protected by the police and by their new masters, resumed their work yesterday morning. In the course of the day a notice was posted on the gates of Messrs. Young, Son, and Mag nay's premises, requesting all time workmen on strike who had left their tools in the yard when the turn-out took place to fetch them away. This looks as the firm were determined not to employ the old hands again ; indeed, the places of a great many of them have been filled up by the Jersey hands, 50 in number, and by shipwrights from the outports. Four of the men who were attacked and beaten in so cowardly a manner by the London union shipwrights on Saturday were under medical treatment until yesterday, when two of them resumed their labours. The others are reported to be going on favourably. Mr. George Frederick Young, the principal of the firm, ever a good friend to the work ing classes, and. Mr. Charles Magnay, the junior partner, were threatened and grossly insulted. Mr. Sidney Young, in protecting his father, was ill-used ; but it was reported that he had ample satisfaction, and being in possession of both pluck and science, knocked down six or seven of the ruffians who were ill-using the new hands in succession. Time violence of the union men has done much injury to their cau-e, and there is no prospect of an arrangement of the unhappy dispute between the employers and those lately employ-ed. A private meeting of the Shipwrights' Union was held at the Elinburgh Castle Tavern, Limehouse, on Monday night. It is not known what was the determination of the meeting. There is no lack of funds on the part of the Shipwrights' Union. The men on strike had been allowed 255. a week ever since they left Messrs. Young, Son, and Magnay's employ, and it has been given out by the union men that there is 17,0001. in Land. Messrs. Young, Son, and Magnay proposed to abolish the lunch time from eleven to half-past, and the refresh ment half hour from four until half-past, and to permit the men to have an hour for breakfast and an hour to dinner, and to leave work half an hour earlier in the evening and one hour and a half earlier on Saturday. By this arrangement there would have been only two interruptions to business per day instead of four, and the actual working hours would have been the same as on the old system, except on Saturday, when they would have been one hour less. The London shipwrights, however, consider the proposed change as an invasion of their " rights and privileges," and will not agree to it. The rallying cry of the union men is, "We won't give up our 'levener and tourer," meaning the half-hour in the morning and the half-hour in the afternoon, and nobody would have found fault with them for this deter mination, although they had deprived themselves of em ployment, if they had not, by bribery, gross violence, and intimidation, attempted to prevent others, willing to comply with Messrs. Young, Son, and Magnay's regu lations, from entering into agreements with them. No such privileges have hitherto been accorded to the ship wrights in the outports. The " 'levener " and the "fourer " are peculiar to the port of London. On an average of 10 years (1841.50) the mortality was at the annual rate per 1,000 of 15 in three English districts, 16 in 14 districts, 17 in 47 districts, 18 in 87 districts. These facts prove that the climate of England is eminently salubrious ; and it has not yet been shown that the climate of any part of the continent is equally or more salubrious than this island, crowned with hill: of moderate elevation, sloping towards the east and south ; bathed by the showers of the Atlantic, drained naturally by rivers running short courses to the sea, cultivated more extensively than other lands, and producing those unequalled breeds of sheep, cattle, and horses, which flourish only in healthy places. The healthiest parts of England are not yot places of general resort, L. the annual mortality in the various districts comprising watering places seldom exceeds 21 in LOCO of the population, and is probably lower in those regions of the die , ' Ids to which visitors resort. Hastings, Brighton, the Isle cf Wight, Worthing, Mutford (includ ing Lowestoft), Newton Abbot, Barnstaple (including Ilfracombe), Bath, and Cheltenham have experienced low rates of mortality during the spring quarter; and it should be always borne in mind in selecting places of resort that through the peculiar nature of zymotic diseases places usually healthy are periodically visited by epidemics, which can only be avoided by consulting recent returns, or by actual inquiries on the spot. The cleansing and the sewerage of all watering places require improvement, as their arrangements were made when sanitary science was at a low ebb. COURT OF ALDERMEN. Yesteriay a Court was held for filo despatch of pub• is business. CONSERVANCY OF THE RIVER THAMES. The TOWN CLERK informed the Court that on the 21st inst. presentments had been made at a Cou'rt of Conservancy of the navigation of the river being ob structed and impeded in consequence of the form of con struction of Battersea and Putney bridges, and of trunks of trees placed by some persons- unknown on the shore of the ri ver i n t h e parish of Wandsworth. That the river was contracted and obstructed in consequence of the form of construction of Battersea and Putney bridges, as well as by a floating pier or landing place at the bottom of Essex-street, Strand, and at the Fox nnder-the-Hill, near the Adelphi. That on the 28th inst. a presentment had been made of the banks at the River Lea being very much out of repair ; of an obstruc tion and impediment to the navigation of the same river by the construction of an iron railway bridge; of an obstruction at the entrance of Barking-creek, by the sinking of a barge ; of the dilapidated state of the cause way on the Essex shore, at West Thurrpck, opposite Greenhithe, and that much inconvenience was caused to the public by the causeway at Grays being much out of repair ; that large quantities of rubbish, &c., were cast ' into Deptford -creek from the premises of Frank Clark Hills ; that an encroachment had been made in Deptford , creek by large quantities of refuse being cast from the prolcises of John Bennett La wee and from the Phoenix Gas Works ; that the bank of the river at Blackwall point required shoring up ; that an encroachment had been made at Kirk and Parry's wharf, at Woolwich, by a deposit of stores ; of an encroachment by the construc tion of a pier and jetty at the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich; of an encroachment at the Sea Witch public-house, Greenwich, by Mr. Bullock's shipsways ; of an encroachment by the construction of a pier and jetty, at Erich, with a crane and shears. These various presentments were referred to the General Purposes Committee to consider and report upon. THE GREAT METROPOLITAN SCHEME OF DRAINAGE. The LORD MAYOR—I wish to make a communication to Court, in connection with the proceedings of the Court of Conservancy which was yesterday held at Greenwich. Besides thug presentments of the jury a deputation from the inhabitants of Erith waited on the Court, for the purpose of representing to them the great damage to property and probable injury to health that might be occasioned if the outfall of the sewers of the metropolis should remain fixed, as now proposed or sug gested, near the village of Erith. (Hear, hear.) I, of course, assured the deputation, that I would bring the subject under the notice of my brethren, with a view to their representations being forwarded to the Commie sioner of Public Works for his consideration. The Court of Con.crvancy have no power whatever in any matter under the direction of Parliament, or over any officer whom Parliament has appointed to supervise the Thames. I believe that all my brethren are agreed with me in opinion that it is worthy of consideration, when we are embarking in a large scheme for the removal of the sewage from this great metropolis to a distance, that it should be taken to a part of the Thames where it is un derstood and agreed that no damage to either property or human life can arise—that is, below Gravesend, as suggested by the deputation. That deputation handed in certain papers and reports of engineers and other persons Rho might be called to give their opinion with regard to the project in a sanitary point of view. I therefore sug gest that one of my brethren should move that those several papers be handed to the Remernbrancer, in order that they may be transmitted to Sir Benjamin Hall for his consideration. I have now fulfilled the promise • which I made to the deputation yesterday, that the sub ject should be brought forward today; and I have also fulfilled the assurance that this Court will do whatever they can to give the representations made to them pub licity, and to place them before the officer of the Govern meht whose . dutrit is to attend to such matters. Alderman Firma presented a memorial from the in habitants of Erith, praying that the village might not be made the outlet of the metropolitan system of sewer age, which was read by Mr. Woodthorpe, and which excited a great deal of interest. Alderman Farms then moved that this memorial and two other documents, signed by Mr. F. S. Homfray and Mr. R. B. Grantham, engineers, condemnatory of the Government project for emptying the sewage of the metropolis into the Thames at Erith, and suggesting that it should be carried further down the river before being discharged into it, be referred to the General Purposes Committee. Alderman LAWRENCE, in seconding the motion, said be was very glad that the subject of the outlet for the sewage of the metropolis had been brought before the Court, as it was most essential that so comprehensive a scheme as that suggested by the Government should be fully considered before the vast outlay of money requi site to carry it into effect was entailed. (Hear, hear.) Alderman COPELAND said he quite approved the mo tion for referring the documents brought before the at tention of the Court to a committee, but could not help thinking that neither the citizens of London nor the in habitants of the suburbs were at all aware of the enor mous cost that would result from carrying the proposed scheme into execution. (Hear, hear.) The motion was put and carried unanimously, and at the sug gest i on of Alderman WIRE power was given to the Ge nera l P urposes Committee to confer w i t h t he Ci ty Commissioners of Sewers (many of whom were present and seem e d d eep l y i nterested) as to th e most advisable course to pursue in reference to the subject. The Court adjourned. PROTESTANT LIFE FIRE ASSURANCE COMPANY.— Vice -Chancellor Kindersley has called on creditors to come in and prove their debts against the estate of this company, otherwise they will be precluded from com mencing or prosecuting any action for the recovery of them ; and an official manager is to be appointed to in vestigate the liabilities and assets. THE PUBLIC HEALTH. INCIIBAIS OF POPULATION. As the number of births was 173,244, and the number of deaths 100,310, the natural increase of the population of England was 72,891 in the three months of April, May, and June ; so 1,903 lives were added, 1,102 were taken away, daily; leaving 801 as the daily increase. But in the same three months 60,379 emigrants left the ports of the united kingdom at which Government agents are stationed; and of that number about 21,304 were of English origin. England, exclusive of Scotland and Ireland, sent about 234 emigrants daily over the seas to Australia, to the United .states, and to the North American colonies. Of the immigrants who enter England from Scotland, Ireland, and other parts no statistical records are kept. The emigration from the ports of the united kingdom is less by nearly 6,000 than the emigration (66,111) in the spring quarter of 1855, and is less than half the average emigration (113,141) of the corresponding quarters of the eight years 1817-54. THE PRICE 01 0 PROVISIONS, AND THE WEATHER. The prices of some of the principal articles of food are shown below, with a view of determining the effect of their variations on the birth; deaths, and marriages. During the last three months wheat was sold, on a❑ average, at the rate of 68s 8d per quarter; York regent potatoes, at 80s per ton, at the waterside market, South wark; beef at 51d per lb, mutton at sid per lb, in the Leadenhall and Newgate-markets. The price of wheat in the corresponding three months of 1851, 1555, and 1856 declined from 78s 4d to 68s Bcl, or nearly lOs per quarter. Potatoes fell from 155 s to 80s per ton; beef fell only from Nd to sld per lb. Mutton, on the other hand, rose from 50 to sid per lb. Upon the whole, the prices of articles of most extensive consumption as food declined. The value of the public securities rose. The mean temperature at Greenwich was 52°3, the fall of rain 7'4. STATE OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH. The deaths in the three spring months were 100,310; and the annual mortality was at the rate of 2'117 per cent., or nearly 21 in 1,000, the average annual rate of the sea son being nearly 23 in 1,000. The mortality has been dur ing the whole of the half-year much below the average rate. The mortality in the spring quarter among the people living in the districts and the Baia-districts comprising the chief towns of England was at the annual rate of 23 . 85 (nearly 24) per 1,000. The mortality of the rest of the people in the small towns and in the country parishes was at the annual rate of 1818 (nearly 19) per 1,000. The rate of mortality is in both classes of districts below the aver age, but the reduction of the rate is less considerable in the town than in the country populations. The changes in the diseases and the low mortality that has reigned in London have been noticed in the weekly tables. The salutary effects of the improved water supply and of other sanitary measures in Bermondsey are pointed out by one of the registrars. As similar improvements in Lambeth and other districts are referable to the same causes, the whole of the results can be collected and dis cussed most conveniently together when a greater number of facts has accumulated. The deaths (8,158) in the south-eastern counties are below the average number, and nearly a thousand less than the deaths in the spring quarter of the previous year. In Kent the deaths slightly exceeded the average; in Surrey, Sussex, Hants, and Borks the decrease was well marked. Scarlatina and measles prevailed in some districts of Kent; at Faversham malignant scarlatina prevailed through the whole quarter, and the deaths were nearly doubled. Tho registrar of Newport, in the Isle of Wight, states that he has registered four deaths from smallpox in the Parkhurst barracks. In the Isle of Wight generally, in the New Forest, and in some other districts of the division, the mortality has been at as low a rate as 16 in 1,000. The south midland counties were generally in a healthy state; the deaths in the quarter were 6,270. In Oxford shire, Northamptonshire, and Huntingdonshire the mor tality was nearly at the averag e rate ; in Buckinghamshire and in Cambridgeshire the rate of mortality was much below the average. Smallpox was very prevalent in Northampton, and the deaths from all causes were 265 ; so the mortality was at the annual rate of nearly 35 in 1,000. At Cambridge the deaths during the last three spring quarters were 155, 150, and 101. The register of St. Andrew's, Cambridge, says— " The decrease in the deaths compared with those of the same quarter in 1855 speaks well for the healthy con dition of this district, and may in some measure be ac counted for by the introduction of a large and constant supply of water last autumn in pipes from a distance of two or three miles, which will not only be the means of great comfort and convenience to the inhabitants, but will also materially assist in cleansing the town. Scarlatina appears to be the most prominent, if not the only, disease among children." The beneficial effects of a constant supply of pure water on the health of the town populations become every day more apparent. The deaths in the eastern counties wore 5,758, while the numbers in the previous spring quarter were 6,191. The mortality was low in Norwich. Scarlatina in a Fever() form prevailed in Epping, Great Warley, Bradwell, Hemp stead (parish), South Walsham, and Hillington. The fishermen in King's Lynn North refuse generally to have their children vaccinated, and 10 died of small-pox. The south-western counties lost 8,516 of the inhabitants by death ; but the mortality was low in every county, and the deaths were 1,177 less than the deaths in the spring quarter of 1855. At Trowbridge, in Wilts, it is gratifying to find that many families have removed with the beet effect from unhealthy yards to healthy cottages, with small gardens attached, in the outskirts of the town. The im provement of the houses is sure to be followed by the im provement of the inhabitants. The pernicious effects of the night soil, which is still left under the houses in our towns, have been fatally proved in Poole, where three men died from descending in the vaults. The registrar remarks —" If the machine with hose had been used this sad re sult, which has rendered seven children fatherless and three wives widows, could not have occurred." In proceeding northwards the diminution in the morta ,ty of the divisions is less considerable. In Staffcrdshire ,he deaths (4,081) are rather more numerous than the deaths in the previous spring quarter, but in the other counties of the west midland division the deaths exhibit a decrease. 1,133 deaths were recorded in the Birmingham district. Smallpox, scarlatina, and measles prevailed in some districts. In the north midland counties 6,290 deaths were regis tered. In Lincolnshire a remarkable decreased is observed in the deaths, which were 2,067, 2,251, isnd 1,714 in the three last spring quarters. The deaths in the north-western division were 16,038-- namely, 2,318 in Cheshire, and 13,770 in Lancashire. The numbers aro a little below the average. Liverpool and West Derby exhibit a gratifying decrease in the mortality; the deaths in the two districts were 2,799 to a population of 411,515 in 1851. The registrar of the West Derby sub district makes the following remarks : "My district during the whole of the quarter has been in a more healthy state than at any former period ; so much so that during the week ending Saturday, the 24th of May, there were only thieo deaths in the whole sub-district, which, at the census of 1851, contained 33,013 inhabitants, and there will be an increase on that number of at least 5,000 since that time. The township of West Derby has always been noted as the most healthy locality in the vici nity of Liverpool, and this usually favourable state of the district is further improved by the excellent system of draining, sevvering, and cleansing the streets that has been adopted. The births have for some time past been double the number of the deaths, owing to the healthy state of district and the increased population." Sanitary measures in Liverpool will, we may hope, hence forward reduce the high mortality which has reigned there, ( Prom the Quarterly Return of the Registrar-General.) This return comprises the births aid deaths registered by 2,196 registrars in all the districts of England during the spring quarter that ended on Juno 30, 1E56; and the mar riages in 12,180 churches or chapels, about 3,754 registered places of worship unconnected with the Established Church, and 628 superintendent registrars' offices, in the quarter that ended on March 31sti 1856. The marriage rate, which was low, is now slightly above the average rate ; the birth rate is high, and the death rate is low, so that the state of the population, in the light of these returns, is favourable. MARRIAGES. 66,776 persons were married in the three months of January, February, and March. The annual rate in the quarter was 707 marriages to every 100,000 of the popula- tion ; while the rate in the winter of 1855 was 631 (or lens by 1-10th), and the average rate of the preceding winter quarters was 704. The marriages (33,388) were more by 4,527 than the marriages (29,131) in the winter quarter of 1855; and the increase is a sure indication of the pro sperity of the country. The increase of marriages is ob served in every division. The excess in the numbers in Portsmouth, Plymouth, and Hull is probably due to the return of oar gallant seamen from the Black Sea and the Baltic. BIRTHS. 173,201 boys and girls were born alive and registered in the spring quarter that ended on the last day of June, giving an increase of 7,951 children on the numbers of the corresponding quarter of 1855. It is the spring quarter in which the greatPst number of births generally occurs ; and this number is the highest,that has ever been returned in England. The number or registereci births rose from 130,9411 n the spring quarter of 1844 to 175,204 in the last spring quarter. UNATTACHED.

( From the Report of the Registrar-General. ) The mortality in London is below the usual average rate which prevails within its limits. In the week that ended on Saturday, 995 persons—of whom 487 were males, and 508 females—died. The total number differs little from that of the preceding week, which was 1,018. The corrected average of the corresponding weeks of the previous 10 years was 1,213. But this result represents more than the nominal rate of mortality, in consequence of cholera, which was epidemic in 1849 and 1851, having carried off in the corresponding weeks of those years about 916 persons. Of the 995 persons who died, 522 were under 20 years of age, 147 were 20 and under 40, 146 were 40 to 60, 146 were 60 to 80, and 34 were 80 years of age and upwards 278 persons died of zymotic diseases, including 11 by cholera, 71 by diarrhoea, 20 by smallpox, 45 by measles, 19 by scarlatina, 48 by typhus, &c. Ten of the deaths by cholera are returned as infantile cholera, and occurred to children under two years of age. The deaths from diarrhoea have increased from 15 weekly in June, to 29, 48,62 in July, and in the last week to 71. Of 90 deaths assigned to diseases of the res piratory organs, 41 were caused by bronchitis, 42 by pneumonia, 4 by asthma, 3 by pleurisy, laryngitis, &c. Phthisis was fatal i❑ 120 cases. Half of the deaths that happen on an average in London between the ages of 20 and 40, are from consumption and diseases of the respiratory organs. The deaths from these diseases in the last week were 65 ; the deaths from all other diseases at the same period of life were 82. The deaths from consumption and from other diseases of the respiratory organs, at all ages, were 220. The majority of these diseases arise from constitutional conditions, and from the ordinary elements of insalubrity —but there can be no doubt that the dirty dust suspend ed in the air, that the people of Los don breathe, often excites diseases of the respiratory organs. The dirt of the streets is produced and ground now by innumerable horses, omnibuses, and carriages ; and the❑ beat up in fine dust, which fills the mouth and inevitably enters the air passages in large quantities. The dust is not removed every day, but, saturated with water in the great thoroughfares, sometimes ferments in damp wea ther, and at other times ascends again under the heat of the summer sun as atmospheric dust. The natural remedies would apparently be to transfer from the principal thoroughfares some of the immense traffic by horse-carriages to railways, and to keep the streets, by daily cleansing, as clean as the streets are kept in some of the continental towns. The inhabitants of London would the❑ net have to dread diseases as fatal as the "grinders' rot," or the "miners' asthma," from mechanical impurities of the air they breathe. Last week the births of 844 boys and 764 girls, in all 1,608 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1846 55 the average number was 1,394. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean reading of the barometer was 29.733 in. for the week ending the 26th July ; the bky for the most part was overcast with occasional showers. lightning W 33 fre quent at night on Wednesday, with thunder, which was also heard on Saturday. Electricity was positive through out the week except Sunday. The atmosphere was warm, and the average temperature was 2.3 deg. in excess on the average derived from the same week for the last 38 years. v The mean daily temperature was 64.2 deg., or about 4 deg. above the temperature of the week pre ceding. The thermometer rose to 83.0 deg. on Wednes day ; from this point it fluctuated, and descended to 49.8 deg. on Saturday. The average dew•point was 6.0 deg. below the air temperature, and showed a difference of between 8 and 9 deg. on Friday and Saturday, con sequently the air was drier on those days than during the preceding part of the week. The direction of the wind was chiefly from the south-west, and pas s ed over Greenwich at rates averaging 86 miles daily.

Mr. C. W. M'Clond, a clerk in an ecclesiastical office, de posed that on Thursday last he met the deceased and his brother, Mr. Edward Norris, at the Ship Tavern, Lambeth, where they hired a boat, and proceeded up the river. On returning, witness and Mr. Edward Norris rowed, while the deceased steered. When be tween the bridge and the intended new bridge, the deceased's brother suddenly said, "Pull hard ; we are in for it now," and immediately afterwards the boat struck against a barge, and turned completely over. It was quite dark at the time, but witness, when he rose, saw both his companions holding by the boat, which was bottom upwards. The deceased said, " Save Ed ward !" The boat commenced turning over and over, and then drifted down the tide. The deceased was un fortunately drowned, but a boat from the shore saved witness and Mr. Edward Norris. At the time of the accident, although it was quite dark, a young water man, named John Farr, and Thomas Cook, a watchman belonging to the new bridge, promptly put off in a boat en hearing the alarm, and after considerable time gal lantly succeeded in rescuing Mr. M'Cloud and Mr. Edward Norris from their dangerous position. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental death." . .
