SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. LIVERPOOL SPRING MEETING, MARCH U. Aided by the glorious weather on both days of this meet ing, and by the general holiday, Mr. Topham may con gratulate himself upon a success in a financial point of view, in spite of his adherence to the system of light han- dicaps. But, prejudiced as he is in favour of the speedy weed, even he must have opened his eyes to the numerous " rankings" which have been perpetrated this year in con sequence of his decision, coupled with the maintenance of the ridiculously easy course which is now run over at Ain tree. It is true that the, two brooks (Valentine's and Beecher's), together with the water jump opposite the stand, are much the same as in the good old times of Lot tery and Gaylad ; but the thorn fences are so thin and full of gaps that they are perfect " squire traps." Indeed, few horses but those which have learnt their trade by ex• perience rise at them at all, but, dropping their hind legs into the ditches on the landing aide, fall and are out of the race. A speedy animal, therefore, which can just struggle under 10 or 11 stone, and can be taught to jump with certainty over the slightest fence, though utterly useless as a hunter, can win here, if cnly he can be landed on the racecourse, where the 300 or 400 guineas Lei cestershire hunter has not pace enough to bring him home The racecourse itself forms nearly half of the good hunting country, being twice traversed, besides a long start on it, increased this year in length by 200 or 300 yards. The fields are more than half fallow and whetif, but no rain having fallen for 48 hours the sandy soil had become quite dry, though as loose and deep as the sea shore. The winner is a neat racing-like horse, but quite unfit to carry more than list 71b in the hunting field, nor indeed were there more than one or two of that character in the race, Fosco, Medor a, Jealousy, and The Dane being apparently up to the ►uoL,t weight. To meet the wishes of those who desired, to leave by the 5 o'clock train for the south, the steeplechase was set for 3 30, and being decide - a - by a few minutes to 4, their object was attained, much to their satis faction. Mr. Marshall's claim upon Freshman and Jerusa lem being settled, the former was allowed to start, but cut no figure in the race. Avalatiche, who was backer by her party atter her defeat yesterday for a considerable amount, was, as we then predicted, unable to go home nearer than fifth, and behind her again was the second favourite, who looked very formidable up to the distance, and apparently has not lost her old form. There was little fluctuation in the market since our quotation yesterday,Emblem and Jealousy being the firstfavourites, while Medora, The Dane, Arbury, and Master Bagot had each a circle of steady supporters. We trust that before next year a larger and better field of horses at Market Harborough will convince Mr. Topham that by raising the weights he will not only subserve the true interests of the British turf, but also improve his own prospects and those of his supporters. The All-Aged Selling Stakes of 3 sovs each, with 20 sovs added; 2-yr-olds ani, upwards. Weights for age, with maiden and selling allowances. T.Y.C. 5 subs.

Sherwood was the first off, but in a few strides was passed by Xenius, Lufra, and Glasgow, the former two running abreast to the distance, where the favourite next the rails drew way, and won very easily by three lengths, four lengths separating the second and third, Sherwood was a bad fourth.

Upwards of 20 minutes were consumed at the post in consequence of the continued breakings away of Libellous and Leontes. At last the flag was lowered to a satisfactory start, and,Libellous being the first in action made,play, fol lowed 'by the favourite, Fravola, Peignoir; and Brilliant, the other three being some distance in their rear. In round ing the turn into the straight Leontes rushed to the front, and with Mr. Hughes's old one on the whip hand, and Fra vola next the rails, came on to the half distance, when Li. bellous resigned his position to Peignoir, who headed Fra vola at the stand, but was unable to reach the favourite who won in a canter by four lengths, a length separating the second and third. Libellous was fourth, placed by the judge, Little Lady fitth, and Brilliant next; the other two close together, followed some distance in their rear. The Grand National Steeplechase Handicap, of 20 sovs ea:th, h ft, with 100 soya added. Second saved his stake. Winners extra.

Jerusalem was struck oui, at 12 p.m. en Tuesday, and Satellite at 1.45 p.m. onWednesday. Betting-3 to 1 agst Jealousy, 4to 1 agst Emblem, Bto 1 agst Medora, 10 to 1 agst The Dane, 12 to 1 agst Master B Tot, 20 to 1 each agst Light of other Days, Real Jam, Yaller Gal, and Arbury, and 33 to 1 agst Avalanche. The lead was taken by Medora, closely waited on by Tele graph, Light of other Days, Inkerman, and Oc phan, the rest being well up. On entering the meadows Orphan rushed to the tront, with Inkerman and Master Bagot second and third, but dw‘ ]ling at the first fence Master Begot got the lead, followed by Medora and the Dane, in which order they ran to Beecher's Brook. As they took this, Telegraph showed slightly in front, Medora being in the air almost at the same moment, and a very short interval separated them from the two light grays (Master Bagot and Fosco), Birdbolt bringing up the rear. In the next ploughed field Master Bagot again went in front, closely attended by Medora,Light of Other Days, and Arbury, Emblem heading the next lot a few lengths behind the leading horses. At Valentine's Brook Jealousy rushed through her horses and headed Master Begot, close to whom were Medora and Light of Other Days, and after crossing the Canal-bridge-lane she increased her lead very considerably, Master Begot still lying second, and Freshman assuming the third place. Entering the race-course Jealousy was 20 lengths in ad vance, Master Begot being next, with Inkerman, who had thrown Mr. Smith at the bank leading into the lane, run ning loose at the girths. Next to these were Emblem and Arbury, the Dane, Light of Other Days, and Yaller Gal following in the order named, and no change occurring till reaching the thorn fence at the distance, where Orphan fell, and unhorsed Mr. Bevill. The water jump was taken by all but Inkerman and Orphan, who were out of the race, without a mishap, and as they passed the stand Jealousy still led, Emblem lying next, followed by The Dane,Master Begot, Medora, Arbury, Yaller Gal, Light of Other Days, Freshman, Real Jam, Fosco, Avalanche, Telegram, and Birdbolt, almost in Indian file, and as placed above, but all pretty well up. On entering the meadows the second time round Emblem deprived Jealousy of the premiership, but at the turn for Beecher's Brook the latter raced by her, the favourite and Master Begot and Medora taking it nearly abreast of one another. Yeller Gal here mended her pace, and getting on to the soundest part of the fallow between the two brooks, assumed the lead, with Jealousy close at her quarters, and Light of Other Days third, Avalanche and Emblem being fourth and fifth. As they turned for Valentine's Brook Mr. Rowlands called upon Medora and got over first, Jealousy being the next and Yaller Gal charging it abreast of The Dane, who immediately put on the steam, and was first into the lane a length ahead of Emblem. As they entered the racecourse Emblem was seen in front, with Arbury second, Light of Other Days third, The Dane fourth, Jealousy fifth, and Yeller Gal sixth, the rest farming a considerabla tail. At the distance The Dane, who pulled up lame, retired, and Light of Other Days followed suit,Emblem increasing her lead,and coming in an easy winner by 20 lengths—Arbury beating Yaller Gal for third place by 10 lengths, and. atter a severe struggle, the latter headed Fosco by two lenKtho. Ava lanche was a very bad fourth, Jealousy fifth, and the rest pulled up opposite the stand as they came in. A Handicap of 40 sous ; winners extra. Three furlongs, 100 yards. 16 subs. Mr. R.

Defries, having been specially requested to do so, will illuminate the National Gallery and the War-office, and the Treasury again this (Thursday) evening. In our description of the illuminations in St. James's-street it was stated that at Messrs. Moore and Woodward's, gunmakers, the windows were defined by lines and semi-circles of gas gets. The illu mination in question, however, belonged to the Cocoa Tree Club, and not to blessrs, Woodward. PRICE..... —..4d. STAMPED Naval and Military Intelligence. THE NAVY. The Admiralty yacht Black Eagle, Master Com man,ler Whiliier, sailed yesterday from Woolwich for Portsmouth, on special service, to convey some of the distinguished foreigners now in England to the Continent. Iler Majesty's paddlewheel steamsloop Spiteful, Commander W. C. F. Wilson, from the West Indies, has returnel stores at VVoAwich, and is ordered to poy off on Snturday next. During the prevaleacu of yellow fever, which attacked the crew of the Spiteful in 1861, soon after her arrival in the Ha- vannah, no less than 50 men, including 6 officers, died, and several men were invalideo. and bent. hoine. Commander Wilson was in hospital at Nassau, and was for a considerable time incapacitated from duty. During his illness the command of the ship devolved on the first-lieut., J. N. Croke, who, although he had scarcely recovered himself from a severe attack of the malady, assumed the entire charge. Out of the number of offcers who left England in 1860) when the Spiteful was commissioned at Woolwich, only four have returned, including the commander and first-lieutenant—the former bearing evident in dications of the shattering effects of the attack. The Spiteful has latterly been employed at Halifax, and was last year engaged in quelling th ,- :tart ea on shore in Newfoundland. She is now sent .accae on account of her boilers being defective. Before leaving for England she was carefully inspected by Admiral Wine, who expressed his satisfaction with tiie.,statk of the Ahip, and forwarded 411Y.c.pqrt to that effect to the Board of Admiralty.. On her arrival at Woolwich she was again inspected by the senior officer commanding, and the men were put through a thorough course of exercise in the rigging and under arms. In consideration of the satisfactory reports their lordships, con trary to the usual custom on paying off, ordered the ship's company three days leave, and, it is satisfactory to add, all returned to the ship sober and in good plight, with the exception of one man sent to the Infirmary. The officers report that on their voyage home Clifford's lowering gear, with which the Spiteful's boats are fitted, was called into operation to rescue a man who had fallen over board. The poor fellow was unable to swim, and had already disappeared, when the boat was manned and lowered, and in three minutes the drowning man was again on board and safe. The steamtug Kite, relieved by the Spitfire, sailed from Bermuda seven days before the Spiteful, but, as she per formed the passage under sail, she is not expected to arrive in England before the end of the present month. The Active, 40, sailing frigate, fitting at Chatham as a training ship for the Naval Coast Volunteers at Hartlepool, is to be supplied with an armament consisting of 12 32-pounders, each 56 cwt., and eight 8-inch guns, each of 60 cwt. She is also to be furnished with 150 of the new pattern sea rifles and 150 cutlasses. The Melpomene, screw frigate, Capt. Chas. .1. F. Ewart, and the Imperiense, screw frigate, Capt. R. Gibson (acting), having been officially inspected at Spithead by Vice-Admiral Sir Michael Seymour, G.C.8., Naval Commander in Chief at Portsmouth, went into Portsmouth harbour yesterday to dis mant!e and prepare for paying out of commission on their return home from foreign service. Armour-plate experiments were resumed at Ports mouth on Monday last, under the superintendence of Capt. R. S. Hewlett, C.B. The plates tested on this occasion comprised three of 44in. in thickness of metal from the Elswick Company—two of iron and one of steel, all three made under the steam hammer, but with the additional novelty attending the steel plate that after its manufacture it had been re-heated to an annealing heat and then cooled in oil. There were also two hammered plates of oit in. thickness of metal from the Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company, one of which was a sample plate for the Minotaur iron frigate, building for the Government by the company, end the other was a Flt!e for the M.yal Sovereign's turrets, bent 21-in. out of a straight line, when heated, by the wtdge-press process. l'he Elswick plates failed utterly in (Hering resistance to the shot from the 68-pounder gun, one iron plate being destroyed by a single shot, the other by two shots, and the steel plate being broken up in five separate pieces by two shots. The diameter, depth, and general character of the indents from the shot on the two iron plates were of the ordinary description, but those on the steel plate were considerably less than what is made by the shot on iron plates, the diameter of the in dents in this case being only 6in., and their depth only 1 1-10 in. The plate possessed all the required hardness, but also the fatal fault of brittleness. It was made from the best Sheffield steel. Tee two plates from the Thames Ironworks proved to be of an usually excellent quality, considerably above the average of good "A 2" plates. It is a remarkable fact in connexion with the cast plate for the Royal Sovereign that there were no cracks or openings in the metal after it was bent, and even when the plate was broken eventually across its back, in a known weak part of the forging, by the severe pounding which it received, the metal did not open with the curve, but across it. This plate received five shots in an irregular triangular space, 1 foot by 1 foot 3 inches and 10 inches. Three of these shots struck in a space of 8 inches, measuring from centre to centre of the extreme indents. There was no penetration of the plate in any part by the shot, nor was any part of the metal detached from the main body. The other plate, made by the Thames Company for the Minotaur, received seven shots in a space of 2ft. 6in. by 2ft. and three of these were on the lower left side, beat ing the edge of the plate partially into the ship's side, but without any part of the plate being tho roughly separated from the main body. The chord of the arc within which the three blows struck mea sured 23in., and the depth of the arc was 12in. Commodore Dunlop, C. 8., has received the gond service pension vacant by the death of Captain M'Cleverty, C.B. Capt. T. R. Sulivan is appointed one of the cap tains of Greenwich Hospital, vice Capt. Liardet, deceased. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—G. A. F. Day, master, to the Pembroke, for the Coastguard ; A. Murray, staff surgeon, to the Impregnable ; H. P. Brenan, assist paymaster, to the Black Prince; J. Cleland, J. Prebble, I. A. Cooper, and P. Sanson, assist engi neers, to the Indus, as supernumerares ; Geo. S. Goddard, clerk, to the Cornwallis , and It. G. Gor don, clerk, to the Asia. REJOICINGS AT EDINBITRGH. In Edinburgh the royal marriage was splendidly cele brated. At 10 o'clock, the Lord Provost, magistrates, and town Council attended Divine service in the High Church where prayers were offered by the officiating minister, Dr. Arnot, for her Majesty and for the Prince and Princes . Several other religious meetings were held in the city. At 11 o'clock the troops in garrison and the volunteer regi ments of the city were reviewed in Holyrood-park, the military consisting of a battery of Royal Artillery, the Scots Greys, and the 25th (King's Own Borderers). The strength of the field was about 2.500 men, of whom two-thirds were volunteers. The troops, under the command of Major- General Walker, commanding in the North British district, went through the usual review movements, in presence of about 40,000 spectators. At halt• past 2 there was a public banquet in the Parliament-house, attended by the magis trates and council, the judges of the Court of Session, the consuls of foreign Powers, the head , of public bodies, &c. The Lord Provost, who presided, gave very earnest expres sion to the unanimous and heartfelt wishes of the assem blage for her Majesty's health and long continued reign, and for the welfare of the Prince and Princess. The cheer ing to the toast of the Prince and Princess of Wales was responded to on a signal by a royal salute'from the Castle guns. The third toast was " Prince Alfred," for whom and the other members of the royal family affection was also expressed. A half-past 3 a great popular demon stration took place at the Com-Exchange, at which the Lord Provost also presided, .and loyal and stirring addresses were delivered by Lord Ardmillan, the Earl of Haddington, Professor Aytoun, the Lord Advo cate, M.P., Mr. Swinton, &c., and resolutions were passed expressing devoted attachment to her Majesty and the hope tha , the auspicious union chat day celebrated might be to her a sou; ce of permanent comtort and happiness ; and also giving utteroce..to the fondest hopes for the welfare of the -Prince and Priltdess of Wales and• tha esker members the Royal family. The meeting, which was at tended by from 3,000 to 4,000 persons, showed the highest possible de gree of loyal enthusiasm. In the evening, between 7 and 11, the great illumination of the city took place, About 200,000 persons, it is estimated, witnessed the spectacle, the vast assemblage being comfortably paced in detail through the illuminated streets, in which guard was kept by the police and by mounted troopers of the Scots Greys, all car riages and cabs being for the time withdrawn. The public illuminations embraced in the first place the long and wide valley which separates the old and new towns, at.d in the second place George-street and its conterminous squares. The valley offered unequalled opportunity for a splendid and picturesque illumination Nearly half a mile broad and two miles long, there was a majestic expanse of open view. On the south side of the valley the Castle overhangs the gar • dens of West Princes •street, while to the east the tall and stately buildings of the High-street realise the description of the poet—" Piled deep and massy, close and high " The heights, the gardens beneath, and the fine boulevard of Princes-street, are all embraced in one glance, and the view is then eastwards, not only to the Calton but to the picturesque hills of Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags. mag t n h i i fi c c k e l n y tl p y la l n it ted with padelle, which up; all its em brasures and de parapetsC a s t l e was being also marked the outlines of the rocks and the paths of the sloping gardens below. The Scott Monument, in the centre of the scene, was brilliantly and effectively lit with candle, exhibited in many ingenious ornamental arrangements, and this part of the display was superbly crowned by the sparkling illumination of the coronal st eeple of St. Giles. The long line of Princes-street presented a rich and most varied display, the view being terminated on the west by the dome of St. George's brilliantly outlined in lamps, and on the east by Nelson's Monument, Calton-hill, which was lit inside, and its balconies planted with padelle. In St. Andrew's-square there was a magnificent triumphal illumination, and the whole garden being enclosed by an arcade, and the Melville Monument being made the centre of a superb display in coloured lamps. Over the gateway were bright stars, with loyal mottoes inscribed in the garter. George-street made a gorgeous show. The Com mercial Bank, with its fine Corinthian portico, was ex quisitely outlined in gas lamps. At the east end of Princes street and Waterloo-place, the Register-house and . • other Government offices were admirably illuminated. In the porticos of the Parliament. square, in which the law courts are situated, there was a rich sylvan display. Heriot's Hospital, one of the finest buildings in the city, was em bellished with great taste and splendour. In George-square the house of the Lord Provos - , (Mr. Lawson) was brilliantly illuminated. A large bonfire blazed on Arthur's Seat and a chaplet of fires wreathed Salisbury Crags, front which a splendid display of firewor , a, he gift of the War-office, took place from Bto half-past 9. Throughout the day the weather was very cold, but kept fair till between 9 and 10 at night, when the snow which had been threatened in Admiral Fitzroy's telegram began to tall and helped to dis perse the vast assemblage. There was an immense rush before 11 o'clock to the railway stations, whence return trains started at that late hour or Glasgow, Dundee, and ' eas,le, huncre,. - .!Ivisi . ots having t, ti, ni all lb, se the t.t.easit.ll, tit , d eel r e ttitottditi;l tilithi , ude, from the inl c iv, g Ott fii,trt.

Altogether, it was felt by all who saw the Edinbhrgh illumination that it was a glorious success. Ihe grand effect produced infi nitely exceeded all anticipation formed of the display. In the clear frosty sky the illuminated valley exhibited a most splendid spectacle, acid one which even those who had seen some of the finest Continental illuminations pronounced to be quite unequalled. BAKEHOUSES REGULATION BILL. A bill for the regolation of bakehouses has been brought in by Mr. Bruce. arid ordered by the House of Commons to be minted. It is found ed a pp arentl y upon the recommendations contained in the rec Ti t ly published reports of Mr. Tremenheere. The third clause, which limits the hours of young persons No pe em ployed in bakehouses, is as under the age of 18 years shalfl°°wblleems 1 : )loye son d in any bakehouse between the hours of 9 o ' c lock at night ants 5 o'clock in the morning. It any person is em ployed in contrav, ntion of this section, the owner of the bakehouse in which he is employed shall in cur the following penalties in respect of each person so employed—that is to say: Foy the first offence, a sum not exceeding two pounds ; for a second offence, a sum not exceeding five pounds; for a third and every subsequent offence, a sum not ex ceeding one pound for each day of the continuance of the employment in contravention of this Act, so that no greater penalty be imposed than ten pounds, The fourth clause provides that the inside wall; and ceiling or top of every bakehouse, and the pas sages and staircase leading thereto, shall either be painted with oil or be limewashed, or partly painted and partly limewashed. Where painted with oil, there shall be three coats of paint, and the painting be renewed once at least in every 7 years, and shall be washed with hot water and soap once at least in every six months. Where limewashed, the lime washing shall be renewed once at least in every six months. Every bakehouse is also to be provided with pro per means for effectual ventilation, and be free from effluvia arising from any drain, privy, or other nuisance. A penalty not exceeding five pounds, nor less than two pounds, may be inflicted on the owner of any bakehouse who fails to keep the same in conformity with the above regu lations ; but the court having jurisdiction under this Act may, icstead of inflicting any penalty, make an order directing that within a certain time means are to b e adopted by the o,:ner to bring his b ikehouse into conform ity with this section ; and the court may, upon 'Application, en ierge xny time eppointuci for the adop tion of the means directed by the order; but any non compliance with the order of the court shall, atter the expiration of the tim, as originally limited or enlarged by subsequent order, be deemed to be a continuing offence, and to be punisnable by a penalty not exceeding .E 1 for every day that such non-com pliance c ,nt inues. The next clause provides that no place on the same level with a bakehouse, and forming part. of the same building, shall be used as a sleeping-place unless separated from the bakehouse by a partition extending from the flaoz to the ceiling, and having an internal glez...d window, of e certain made to open for ventilation.

CALAMITOUS LOSS OF LIFE. At this time of universal rejoicing it is sad to have to state that a deplorable loss of life occurred in the city of London on the night of the general illumination. Six per sons, all of them women, were crushed or trodden to death on Tuesday evening in the vast crowd which was attracted out of doors on that occasion, and which roamed about until an advanced how of the night. Two of the unfortunate crea turesmet their death near the Mansion-house about s o'clock in the evening, and the remaining four perished at the foot of Ludgate-hill at a later hour. The bodies of three of them now lie at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, of two more at the dead-house in Huggin-lane, Queenhithe, while ano ther remains'at the National Refreshment-rooms in Far ringdon-street. Four of them have been-idensified-byrefa , tives and friends,but two are as yet unrecognized. The names of the former are Phoebe Crystal, a widow, of 9, Bridge s r reef, Hammersmith ; Charlotte Donegan, wife of a labour ing roan, residing at 27, Fort-street, Spitalfimds ; Charlotte Jane Mitchell, 20 years of age, who had resided at Union place, Hackney; and Ann Harding,of 1, Vineyard-gardens) Clerkenwell, a nurse. The woman whose body lies un claimed at the house in Farringdon• street is described as about 30 years of age, with fair complexion and light brown hair, dressed in a black stuff gown, red and black shawl, gray cloth cloak, and lavender-coloured kid gloves. She was carried there shortly before midnight, while yet alive, by a man to whom she was an entire stranger, and in whose arms she immediately afterwards died. The landlord, Mr. Thorpe, like a good Samaritan, to his credit took the dying woman into his house after she had been refused admission at two different taverns in the neighbourhood. The body of the other woman, not yet identified,which lies at St. Bartho lomew's Hospital, appears to be that of a person turned 20 years of age, with light complexion and hair having a natu ral curl, and dressed in a gray cloth cloak, a white collar trimmed with pink,a gray shawl, and a dark-coloured gown. These particulars are stated with a view to the identifies.. don of the deceased,inasmuch as during the whole of Tuesday night numbers of people made anxious inquiries at the city police stations about missing friends, especially at that in Bow-lane. The deceased girl Mitchell had been employed as a needlew man at kessrs. Copestake and Moore's, in Cheapside. Her sister, who was with her when she was crushed to death, is also said to have received serious in jury in the crowd. It would appear that the women Donegan and Crystal were killed about the same time and near the same spot— viz., at the east end of the Poultry, opposite St. Mildred's church. At that time, about 8 o'clock, the crowd was so dense and surged about so fearfully that Inspector Shelford and Hubble, the gaoler at the Mansion-house police court, who had been drawn into it, and both of whom are tall, strong Teen, were obliged to cling to a van to keep their feet. Donegan was accompanied by her husband, who car ried their child, about 12 months old, in his arms. A fear ful rush took place in the direction of Charlotte-row, in which she was thrown down, and in trying to save her the father let the child fall. The mother was trodden to death, but somebody caught the baby as it fell and threw it into a passing van, by which its life was saved. Phoebe Crystal, who is thought to have fallen in the same rush, had her skull fractured. Two oft he deceased's sons called at Bow lane police• station yesterday and claimed the body. The de • ceased was accompanied at ihe time of her death by one Sarah Partridge, wife of a harness-maker residing in Long lane, Smithfield, who was also hurt, but not seriously. The open space in front of the Mansion-house, as on the day of the Princess's entry into London, was sure to attract and it did attract, an enormous crowd on Tuesday night be cause of the oxtraordinary splendour o. the illuminations in that locality—the tronts of the Royal Exchange, Bank of England, and the official ri sidence of the Lord Mayor being all brilliantly lighted up ; while the whole of the ornamentation with which the last-named building was co,rere'd in anticipation of the ceremony of Saturday stilt teniail.ed net an at r. ction to sightseers. it comes impat under the c , reunn.tancea to know w. - ot were the police regulations in the coy or the occasion. Tle were very sin.p'e, and had reference chiefly to the carriage traffic. The whole city police force numbers about 6'►o teen, and all the available men--but how many does not appear — wet e distributed along the line of streets in which the illu mination was most coi.spicuous. Their primary, if not their only duty, was to regulate the a arriage traffic, and especially to prevent two lines of it proceeding in opposite directions at the same time. For instance, peop e in carriages, cabs, vans, and the like entering the City at Temple-tar and going East, had to pass up Chancery-lane, and by way of Holborn into Cheapside, and thence along Cornhill and Le Adenhall street. Part of Aidgate-street being torn up at present they might pass by way of Billiter-street into Fenchurch and Gracechurch-streets. There they had the option of crossing London-bridge, or returning westward by way of Cannon street, Ludgate-hill, and Fleet-street, through Tempte-bar. There is reason to believe that as evening advanced this ar rangement was infringed in many places. Certainly, at intervals, the traffic flowed along Fleet-street in three or four lines abreast, though in the same direction, so as mate rially to abridge the roadway for pedes rians. Once in the great line of illumination the people had to take care of themselves, and all the side streets were free for others to join at will. During the whole evening the crowd was vast beyond conception, a considerable proportion of them being women. There were many casualties from pressure during the afternoon and evening besides those resulting in death. An unfortunate boy named William Harvey, about nine years of age, living in New-street, Hackney, received injuries near the triumphal arch at London-bridge, which yesterday ren dered necessary the amputation of a leg and a hand at Guy'a Hospital, to which he had been removed, and where he now lies in a precarious condition. About the same place Harriet Church, residing in Lisson-grove, had her leg broken, and a man f ell from a van, breaking seven of his ribs. They were taken to Guy's Hospital. Ann Hawkes, residingin Windsor street, Islington, was crushed in the crowd in Mansion- house-street and taken insensible to St. Bartholomew's Hos pital. John Macpherson, residing in Norton-road, Kentish - town, fell in Upper Thames •street and broke his leg. He was also conveyed to Guy's Hospital. Between 20 and 30 people, with scalp wounds, broken legs and arms, dislocated shoul ters and the like, were taken to St. Bartholomew's Hospital in the course of the night, and received the atten- tions of Mr. Ludlow, the house surgeon. Five of them re mained as patients in the institution, and the rest were con voyed to their homes. HEALTH OF LONDON.

The Megoera sailed from the pier for her destination at 3 p.m. With the exception of a few of the principal offi cers of the staff and some of the troops still remain ing, the invalid depot at Chatham garrison (which for some years past has been the station to which the invalid troops, as well as the soldiers about to be discharged, have been sent from all parts of the world) is broken up. The officers, the officials be longing to the staff, with the troops, have been re moved to the new hospital at Netley, which will henceforward be devoted exclusively to the recep tion of the sick and disabled troops, as well as the time-expired men arriving home from India and the ‘•- (• c ' ,' colonies.

ASSYRIAN ANTIQUITIES. A valuable addition to the Museum of the Louvre will soon be received from M. Delaporte, who has recently discovered a remarkable tomb in the hill of Nimrod, first explored by Mr. Layard in 1840, the curious Assyrian monuments now in the British Museum being from the same spot. M. Delaporte has now sent to Bagdad, for shipment to France, four large bas-reliefs on gypsum slabs, measuring seven feet in length, and four in breadth. The first, admirably preserved, represents a winged personage wearing a pointed cap, and carrying a square bas ket or vase in one hand, and a fir-apple in the other. A cuneiform inscription of 18 lines descends from the waist to half-way down the thigh. The second figure is turned the opposite way, has two pairs of wings, before and behind, and bears an inscription of 25 lines. The third carries a basket in the left arid stretches out its right hand open ; it has an in scription of 21 lines. These three figures are adornet: with ear-rings and bracelets, very finely carved. The fourth figure is considered unique ; it has a human head and body, but eagle's claws, and a scorpion's tail. The hands and part of the wings are wanting ; the figure wears a girdle with two poniards stuck into it ; one of the hilts is plain, but the other is carved in the form of a horse's head. It bears no inscription. Besides these large bas-reliefs there are two smaller ones, one representing a winged figure with an inscription of ten lines; the other a figure with the head of a bird of prey pro vided with wings; it is adorned with necklaces and bracelets. This also carries a basket and fir-apple. A seventh bas-relief represents a priest in a long tunic and long cap; an eighth, two soldiers in tunics, one wearing a pointed helmet, the other a round one, extending downwards so far as to pro tect the ears. This fi g nr: holds a bow and errow. A ninth bas-relief represents a besieged city, with three towers crowned with battlements; from one of these towers a warrior is seen leaning out with his buckler and lance ; on the second tower another warror appears throwing some projectiles, and on the third is a woman with clasped hands. The tenth bas-relief is imperfect, and represents a woman with her hair falling in ringlets on her shoulders ; and. an eleventh bas-relief, or incorrect execution, repre sents a hunting party. Besides these eleven bas reliefs, M. Delaporte has sent off an inscription of 22 lines.— Galignani. Painful Charge of Child Murder in Hoxton. Yesterday morning Mr. H. Raffles Wal thew, the deputy coroner, resumed, at the Black Horse Tavern, Kingsland-road, an inquiry relative to the alleged murder of the illegitimate male child of MiS6' Elizabeth Lydia Brown. It appeared from the evidence adduced on the previous occasion that the young woman in question was only 17 years of age, and was the daughter of very respectable parents, residing in, Rotherfield street, New North-road. She had been a .pupil at the Wesleyan School, Mintern-street, New North road. Oa Wednesday last she Was seen by a boy named William Whale to enter the girls' play ground with something, and his suspicions were aroused by her manner. He soon afterwards found a bundle, wrapped in a shawl, lying in the closet. He gave information to Inspector Webster, of the N division. When the bundle was opened the body of the deceased was found, with one corner of the shawl tied around the neck, and underneath that a piece of strong tape was fastened. The girl was thereupon arrested, and the divisional surgeon of the police pronounced her to have been recently de livered. A sergeant of police being sent to the house of the girl's parents, found evident proofs in her bedroom of the same fact. Dr. J. Cluen Griffiths, police surgeon, said that the deceased was a well developed male child. There was the mark of the pressure of a ligature around its neck. Such a pressure would be suffi cient to produce death by strangulation. The child had breathed for the lungs were inflated. Witness could not say whether the child was born alive in a legal sense, because the law required that to be held to be born alive it should have a completely separate existence. There was a mark of a finger and thumb around the throat. The ligature had been purposely tied there. Elizabeth Dever, a little girl, said that she was at the school in Mintern-street. A short time since she saw the prisoner come into the girls' playground. Witness believed the lady present was the same per son. She had with her a little bag. She asks witness the way to the closet. Rebecca Donovan, 95, Kingsland-road, said that it s he was a police searcher, and that on Th urs d a y, the sth of March, she searched th e pr i soner. Wit ness ,rh asked e her Coroner w paidhath she t a was t was a charged very with. improper question to ask. It was Incitin • •• g her to convict herself. Witness said, she replied, "It is about a child I delivered myself, and put down a closet." Witness then advised h er to b e cautious what she said. Witness afterwards, in the presence of her mother, asked if the child was born alive, and she replied she did not know. Witness found on her a watch and two brooches. The prisoner, a very respectable. looking and lady like young person, was present, in the custody of thepoliee, and appeared overwhelmed with grief. Her father was stated to hold a respectable position in a City house. Mr. Watkins, solicitor, said that he represented the prisoner. The Coroner said he should not ask her to make any statement. The parents of the prisoner were not examined, but they stated that they had no knowledge of the condition of their daughter until she vas arrested by the police. The Coroner having summed up, remarking on the singularly painful circumstances of the case, The Jury, after a long deliberation, returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against Elizabeth Lydia Brown," and they requested the coroner to make known to the proper authorities the opinion of the jury that the conduct of the female searcher in questioning the accused was most improper. The Coroner then handed his warrant to Mr. Waller, the officer of the court, for tfte aPPrehen. eion of the accused. NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF " FOREST KEEP."
