of line radiating from Manchester to the manufac turing districts of Bury, Rossendale, Heywood, and Old barn, are to be commenced , at a disbursement of one m illion of capital. The Nottingham and Lincoln, 33 . mile the Mid s, and Sy stop and Peterborough , 47, are to be begun in land districts, who open their constructtve exchequer of one million and a half. Upwards of 150 miles of line by the Oxford and Rugby, and Oxford and Worcester and Wol verhampton lines, are to be hewn out by the Great Western Railway, who have already commenced the future high way to the districts of iron and hardware, and to a uniting point with the Grand Junction at Wol verhampton, the total cost being calculated at two millions. The Great Western have been more successful than any other Company in their Parliamentary diplomacy last session. They obtained no fewer than eight lines, the construction of which will soon be commenced ; namely, the Bristol and Exe ter branches, twenty-nine miles, capital 500,000/. ; the Mon mouth and Hereford, thirty-six miles, capital, 550,000/. ; the Newport and Pontypool, thirteen miles, capital,ll9,ooo/. ; the Oxford and Rugby, fifty miles, capital 600,000/. ; the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, 103 miles, capital 1,500,000/. ; the South Wales, 182 miles, capital 2,800,000/. ; the Berks and Hants, thirty-nine miles, capital 400,000/. ; and the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth line, 129 miles, capital 1,500,000/. This gives a total length of new lines to the Great Western to construct, of nearly 500 miles, and a total capital of between 7,000,000/. and 8,000,000/. If to this be added the present length the Great Western has in actual working, namely 220 miles, including Bristol and Exeter, and Cheltenham and Oxford branches, which with the main line have cost 7,717,043/, it appears that, with the amount of capital to be raised for the construction of the schemes sanctioned last session, the Great Western will have more than doubled both its capital and length, the former, which before its close of last session was 7,717,043/., being increased to nearly 16,000,000/., and the latter, which was 220 miles, being increased to 720, thus placing the Company in possession of a prospective dominion, exceeding.' by upwards of 100 miles Mr. Hudson's amplitude of terri tory. The Shrewsbury, Oswestry, and Chester also commence their twenty-three miles into the mining districts, at a contemplated outlay of 410,000/., and the South-Western, their Southampton and Dorchester, sixty-two miles, at a cost of 500,000/. The Trent Valley line works, forty-nine miles, will commence at the Birmingham line at Rugby, and run into the Grand Junction at Stafford, at a cost of 1,250,000/. The Wakefield, Pontefract, and Goole will scatter its capital. of half-a-million over twenty-seven miles between its termini and the extension lines round York, of about fifty miles, will be the means of circulating amongst its labouring classes at least half a million. In Scotland, the Caledonian, Aberdeen, Scottish Central, Clydesdale Junction, and other great routes, are already throwing labour into the hands of the Scottish population, the works on each of them having been vigorously commenced. The millions of British capital thus being expended are only the seeds of a great monetary harvest, that must yield millions more. The total amount of money that will be set in circula tion and expended on the construction of these projects is 29,000,000/. sterling ! The total length of new railways to be constructed is 1,793 miles, which, added to the 1,800 miles at present in operation, shows, that while the new lines of last session have just equalled the old ones in length, they have about half equalled them in capital—the cost of constructing the lines at present in existence having amounted to 70,000,000/. There is every probability that the lines of the ensuing session will multiply the capital of those of the preceding one twice over, and it would almost weary arithmetic to calculate on the multitude of men to be employed in their formation.—Chronide. IRISH LINES. ULSTER. BEL7AST, FRlDAY.—Yesterday the first half-yearly meeting of this Company, which was unusually large, was held here. _ _ Mr. JAMES GODDARD, chairman of the Directors, pre sided, and read the following report : " The following statement shows the result of the Corn pany's business for the half-year ended 31st ult.:— First class pamengers 25,589 Second class Third class ditto To' al passengers Net receipts for carriage of goods and parcels 211,867 3,938 Total receipts from traffic Register fees ...... 33 £ 15,838 5,720 Deduct for cost of working the line Balance of net profits for the half-year " Out of this sum the Directors recommend that a dividend of 18s. per share be now declared, which will leave the sum of 7731. 19s. sd. to be carried to the reserved fund. The pas senger traffic, during the last half-year, has considerably ex ceeded that of any corresponding period, and continues steadily to increase. In the goods department the Directors, after much inquiry, have felt it their duty to make a very considerable reduction in the rates, with the hope that the gre it additional accommodation thus afforded to the public will lead to such an extension of the goods traffic as will largely increase the receipts. In order, however, to provide for regularity in working, the railway, should such an in creese in this department as is confidently anticipated take place, the Directors are proceeding with the ballasting of the portion of the line between Belfast and Lisburn, preparatory to laying the second line of rails from this town to Porta down. The Directors, having long felt that the amount with which the Company was charged for poor's rate was oppressive, and that they were taxed, not only on the value of the land, which they occupied, but also upon their profits in trade, appealed, during the last summer, against a rate made by the guardians of the Lurgan Union. In this appeal t'ey were successful, and the rate was, in con sequence, considerably reduced. The Directors will feel it their duty to appeal against every rate not made on the prin ciple settled by that decision, This may lead to very con siderable litigation, which the Directors would most anxiously avoid; but it is the only course left them, until the Legislature shall interfere to put upon a proper footing the rating of rail way companies, a suhiect which has so long been a matter of complaint, and which was brought under the notice of a Committee of the House of Commons in the summer of 1844, but without any practical result. The Act which was neces sary to enable this company to complete the railway from Portadown to Annigh has been obtained. The new Act contains a clause compelling this Company to alter the pre sent gauge from six feet two blase; to five feet three inches, which has been adopted as the universal gauge for Ireland; but, at the same time, clauses have been introduced into the Bills of all the Companies whose lines will join the Ulster Railway, by which, under the direction of the Board of Trade, they will be compelled to contribute towards the expense of that alteration. The means of raising the funds for carrying on the works connected with the extension to Armagh have, necessarily, been a matter of deliberation with the Directors; and, after full consideretion, they recommend that a call be made upon the Proprietors immediately after the present meeting; and that the Shareholders authorise the necessary steps to he taken for borrowing, upon the security of the undertaking, a sum of money to the extent of 50,0001. The engineer's report stated that the number of miles run by the engines had been 53,000, and that preparations were being made for laying down the second line of rails between Belfast and Portadown, the extension from which place to Armagh, was in the hands of Mr. Dargon,the contractor, who had en gage! to complete it in one year and a half." Dr. TuostesoN proposed a resolution to the effect " That it is expedient to raise, by borrowing on the security of the Ulster undertaking, the sum of 50,000/. for the purpose of the works of the extension line to Armagh ; and that the meet ing do authorise the borrowing on security by bond or mort gage, in such sums not less than 500/. each, for such periods not exceeding seven years, and at such rate of interest, payable half -yearly, as the Directors might determine as must to the advantage of the Company." Mr. STEEN moved as an amendment, " That instead of calls on the Proprietors, as recommended by Directors, they are hereby instructed to mane now quarter shares at par, in the proportion of one to ascii share now in existence." Mr. PETER KIRK, M.P., in seconding the amendment, said it was the practice of railway companies, both in Ireland and in England, to blue new shares when about to engage in any new undertaking, in order to cover the necessary expenses. After some observations from Mr. George Phil, Mr. Ge orge Greer, Geor e Greer, and Mr. John Harrison, the original resolution was carried against the amendment. A discussion ensued relative to certain other railway pro jects, which, if carrie d out, would, it was conceived, -trench upon the interests of the Ulster line, and, it was resolved, on the motion of Mr. COATES, seconded by Mr. WORKMAN, Mr. Boyd being the only dissentient, "That the engineer o' the Ulster Company be directed forthwith to examine the country between Newry, Moira, and Lisburn, with a view to the construction ot a line of railway which will afford the best possible accominodation to the public at large, and to the towns of Newry, Banbridge, Loughbrickland, Dromore, and Hillsborough, having due regard to the interests of this Company." On the motion of Mr Jonx SMITH, seconded by Mr. KIRK, M.P., it was resolved,inasmuch as the Newry, Banbridge, and Belfast Junction Company have always shown thegreatest desire to act in accordance with the wishes of the Directors of the Ulster Company, and to co-operate with them, the Directors of the 'Company be instructed to' communicate with the Provisional Committee of the Newry Banbridge, and Belfast Junction Co m p an y , and that they be empowered to make such arrangements with that Company as may appear desirable with a view to the protection of the interests of this Company ; and that, if the Directors think it expedient, they be further empowered to take any other steps which may be necessary for the extension of the Ulster Railway to Banbridge and Newry, and also to such other points as will complete the communication with Dublin." Thanks to the Chairman and Directors closed the proceed ings. CARAT COUNTY DOWN.—At a conference held on the 17th September, between a deputation from the promoters of the Great County Down and the Directors of the Dublin and Belfast Junction Company, the following among other terms, which have not yet been officially ratified, were agreed upon :—That a direct line be made by the Dublin and Belfast Junction Company, from a point north of Newry through Banbridge to Belfast, the trustees on behalf of the Great County Down Company holding a certain amount of shares in that undertaking, and being represented on the direction in proportion to the capital invested. That the Junction Company permit the Great County Down Company to run in upon their line near Newry. That the two com r anies mutually undertake to render each other any assist ance in their power in obtaining their respective Acts of Par liament. COURSE OF EXCHA2 Amsterdam . . ...

Stags are more m igratory t%an usual this season, few having been seen at many of their favourite haunts. John Ross, Esq., at Strathgarve, shot a pair Of stags right and left ; at the same place and time, A. Mackenzie, Peg" yr., of Ord, got a stag. Mr. Flood and Mr. Chearnly, at Wuchinaalt, secured four. At Redcastle, two red deer and two roe were killed by sons of Colonel Bailie. Colonel Porter shot two stags St Inc h na cardock. Mr. White, of Monar has killed one Gleino riston one very heavy deer ; Lord Walsingham, at Klnlochewe, one ; Sir P. Mostyn and Lord Lovat have brought down several good stags. A very heavy royal stag's head was sent here the other day from Erchless Castle to be preserved. The beam of the horns is of uncommon thickness, with wide span, and three thick branches, forming nearly the famous cups on the top of each. Another royal head, a n antlers equal dimensions, arrived this morning from Corri- MOW. The ars are finely overspread with rough projections.— laces Cour*.

The patient has none of the repose so essential to comfort, and indispensable for recovery. His views of things, already prismatised by a disordered brain, are still more bewildered by the false position in which he is placed, and the unfavourable circumstances by which he is surrounded. The time when cure was possible passes quickly away; the excitement subsides into a calm; the disease changes its character; the acute is followed by the chronic stage, and the brightness of the mind is dimmed for ever." he author states the argument for the early treatment of insanity as concisely as powerfully :—" The protection of the brain from the effects of the high irritation and congestion that prevail in the acute stage of mania, can only be secured by vigorous and prompt medical treatment at the very outset. 1 he penalty ofneglect or delay on this point, when not promptly fatal, will be to reduce the brain, the organ of the mind, tot ruin, which no effort of skill or kindness can repair The proper use, therefore, of the time for medical treat ment is all impc,rtant. The period for the moral treatment begins only when the first violence of the storm has spent itself. The best authorities on the statistics of this form of cerebral disease assert that it is curable, in the vast ma jority of cases, when the proper means are employed at the proper time. " But where shall we look for such a well organised sys tem of moral management for the rich and the elevated, as will meet the wants and habits of this class? This is, in fact, the grand desideratum, the difficulty to be pro vided for. Where are we to find the ever-watchful kindness —the considerate forbearance in the discharge of duties often irksome, harassing, and even dangerous—the ready inven tiveness to suggest new thoughts to cheer and amuse ? We shall look for them in vain in the crippled resources for such objects, in the private lodging or the private family, where the rich man is doomed to solitary confinement in a modified form, and in the dreariness of his isolation, to expiate an in firmity as if it had been a crime. This is a blotch on cur civilisation from which our continental neighbours are in progress of being freed. With us, alas! it will continue to prevail until the apathy, ignorance, and selfish pride that so extensively provide such a doom for fellow-creaturds, who might still enjoy the benefit of superior arrangements, shall have disappeared, and given place to sounder views and feel ings on this subject." The author advances a new idea, the voluntary resort of the "nervous"—those (and they are many) who dread the coming disease—to the care and treatment of a private asylum. This the law, as it stands, renders impossible; for it requires the certificate of two medical men that the patient is of unsound mind. This might be altered. To prevent abuse, the free and voluntary resort might have its own [conditions, and such patients might be made subject to the inquiries and inspection of visiting commissioners, in the same manner as the others. "But these benefits, important as they are, would not be the sole ones resulting from a change of the law. The very character of the asylums would be changed. From a prison which it is now so universally regarded, it would become an hospital, and those prejudices which now operate so extensively against the recovery of persons attacked with insanity, would disappear. Every enlightened physician acknowledges and laments the extent of this evil. Persons so attacked, and for whom recovery might be calculated on, almost with certainty, had they been promptly transferred to such a place, are, from a notion that kindness and atten tion will be all that is required, restrained from sending their relatives from home. This mistaken kindness is fatal. In the experiment of love and duty, the time is con sumed between alternating hopes and fears; and when the asylum is resorted to at last, it receives a poor fellow-crea ture, for whom, at the beginning, cure was possible, but who is henceforward an irreparable wreck, doomed to live on, exhibiting the gradual extinction of the noblest faculties. It is with the brain as with the other organs of the body; the congestion or irritation that can be moderated and sub dued at first, if allowed to persist and make progres s un checked, will at last produce such morbid changes in t he organ itself, that it becomes incurably incapable of perform ing healthy functions. And why, then, make an exception as regards the affections of the brain, which experience and common sense condemn in regard to other organs? In pneumonia or bronchitis, who would be absurd enough to confine the treatment to kindness, quiet, and water gruel? And shall our conduct be less wise or less ener getic in the case of the brain than in that of the lungs, involving, as the perversion of the cerebral action does, a double death ? It is quite time that the views and practice of society should be changed on this point; it is one of startling urgency and importance, now that a closer view of this awful scourge (rendered so much more destructive by unreflecting kindness) and its statistical bearings, have all but proved that out of every 500 of the population, we have one case of insanity. The pernicious practice that inflicts so much evil on the community, calls aloud for animadversion : it scatters deso7ation and mourning amongst families—blasting happiness and hope : it cannot be palliated—it must be abandoned." After some judicious observations on the importance of numbers and classifications in the arrangements for the care of the insane, the letter concludes as follows :—" None of our private asylums come up, in all respects, to the ideal we have been tracing. lam not acquainted,' says the late Sir William Ellis, with any asylum at all coming up to my notions of what an asylum for the rich ought to be ; but I still think that it is perfectly practicable to provide for them in an institution possessing every means for cure, and every requisite for their comfort and happiness, combined with but little risk of their being improperly detained.' "But it will perhaps be said that a comprehensive plan, embracing the means of treatment and liberal accotnnio dation for the rich, will be above the reach of the well educated middle classes. It should not be so. The ques tion of accommodation should decide that of the terms of payment. A patient requiring several rooms, special at tendance, and a separate table, should contribute to the funds of the establishment a larger sum in proportion than those who are contented with the accommodation provided for all. This is, in fact, the principle on which a family hotel, as well as many other forms of public enterprise, are carried on. Upon a graduation of this kind, in the working of which there is no practical difficulty, persons paying from 601. or 701. a-year, to '2OOl. and 300/., might be provided for on a scale of comfort totally unknown either in private lodgings or in our private asylums, as they are at present conducted. "The superior administration of such an establishment should be aided by a committee of philanthropic persons, whose duty it should be to see that every improved method of treatment recommended by experience should be adopted. t There should be no private arrangements for the treatment of lunatics, and no private asylums in the present sense of I - the word."

(From Chambers's Edinburgh Journal.) When lately in London, we received an invitation to dine at Wykehouse, near Brentford, with Dr. and Mrs. Costello and their patients. What would the " Man of Feeling," who wrote a sentimental description of the horrors of Bedlam sixty years ago, with its ferocious maniacs, and more ferocious keepers—its cells, and straw, and chains, and scourges--have said to such an invitation ! In one of the richest and most beautiful vicinages of London, about a mile up the hill from Sion House, shaded and dig nified by oaks, ancient elms, and blooming horse-chestnuts, and adorned by shrubbery, flower-bed, and general vernal verdure, we found Wykehouse, a seat of the Earl of Jerrey, and rented by Dr. Costello, as an establishment for the safety and cure of the richer insane. The bell at the gate was an swered by a servant, who conducted us to the house through a perfect flush of lilacs, laburnums, rhododendrons, and flowering shrubs of all descriptions ; and, as one symptom of the safety of the place, we met a nurse carrying an infant, a child of the doctor's. As the family had begun dinner, we were introduced at once to the dining-room, in which sat at table the master and mistress of the house, with eight gentlemen, all patients. We were cordially received by our host and his lady, and introduced to the rest of the company, who rose to welcome us. During the meal, we were the objects of much polite attention. Each individual seemed to wish to take his share of the duty of dispensing hospitalities; offering the condiments, recommending the dish near him, remarking on the topics of the season and the day, and showing much curiosity to hear our news and ascertain our sentiments. During the time we were at table, not a word, look, or gesture occurred which could have raised the slightest suspicion that we were not in the company of the perfectly sane. One of the patients, a clergyman, who performs the religious exercises of the house, including a sermon on Sunday, was asked to return thanks, which he did with becoming reverence, when the eight gen tlemen rose and retired from the table, leaving us with our host and hostess. We were in a spacious and elegant dining-room built by the celebrated " Jack Robinson," who, before Joseph Hume 's time, feathered his nest from the consolidated fund to so au dacious an extent, that Sheridan called the attention of Par liament to his practices ; and when challenged to name the delinquent, declined, though he added he could as easily have named him as say "Jack Robinson." The dining-room was built for the visits of George 111., of whom Robinson was a favourite He built extensive ranges of bedrooms in barrack fashion for numerous guests of rank, of whom his lavish house was always full ; which apartments have been found conveniently convertible to the present purposes of the mansion. Before leaving the table for a walk in the grounds and gardens, we were favoured by our host with a brief exposition of his mode of dealing with his patients, powerfully suggesting the advance which has been made in the treatment of the insane during the last fifty years. The inmates of this establishment are under no personal restraint whatever. There is not a strait-waistcoat, a belt, or pair of hand-mufflers, under the roof. Taking advantage of the fact, that there is much more sanity than insanity in the great majority of the insane, and of the improved knowledge now ac quired on the nature of insanity itself, the paroxysms of which alone require watching, Dr. and Mrs. Costello (for the lady does a large and most important part of the duty) direct all their moral energies upon the balance of sanity remaining in the patient's favour, and always with the most satisfactory results. Confidence is re posed ; the patient's word of honour is trusted to, and seldom if ever broken. The beautiful grounds and gardens are freely ranged ; even the neighbourhood is free to some. An elegant drawing-room, where the lady presides, is open the place secures decorum. The lady's power is an interesting phenomenon ; it seems to be, and really is, greater than her husband's. None but gentlemen can come into her mild and gentle presence ; and we were assured that a look from her, still more, a quiet caution, will check a strong man who may for the moment be in danger of forgetting himself. It is re markable how seldom the hallucinations of the patients come out into the dining-room or drawing-room. These are voted " parish business," and a bore ; and although one of the party might just have discovered the longi tude or the perpetual motion, another received the thanks of Parliament for a victory, or a third a judg ment in Chancery, declaring him master of millions, not a word would be heard on those tempting topics in the drawing-room or at the dinner-table of Wykehouse. A breach of these mild yet rigid laws would be followed by the temporary exclusion of the individual, with the full approbation of the rest. Abuse of liberty is punished by narrowing by degrees its limits, till it is at last circum scribed by the wall of a paved court. No one needs to stay long there ; but enlargement has its conditions, perfectly intelligible to every patient in the establishment When we walked out, we saw some of the gentlemen playing si ith the child, others reading in the beautiful groves. and three or four assisting Mrs. Costello to cull and pack an enormous bouquet of lilacs and hawthorn blossom for a jar in the drawing-room. We joined the party, and assisted, and were much struck with the gallantry, politeness, and respect with which the lady was treated. This direction of female influence is a new element in its various applications in society. It re forms the imprisoned criminal ; it purifies and huma nises the educators of the young of the rougher sex ; it exercises a power over the insane themselves that renders them as pliant as children. Yet Mrs. Costello is a slight, little woman, whom any one of the subjects over whom she rules could annihilate in an instant. In deed, we should say that the insane are peculiarly amen able to just such an influence ; for th-ir malady in most cases produces a simplicity of general character, often almost child-like. We assembled at tei in the drawing-room, and en• joyed an hour of general conversation, when the part\ again dispersed through the grounds; and as we drove off in the twilight of a beautiful June evening, we had hands held out to us by the never, and hats lifted by the distant, till the gate shut behind us, and we were on our road to London. On our way, Dr. Costello, who accompanied us, showed us a villa or cottage a mile or two from Wykehouse, which, on account of its romantic groves and large lake teeming with fish, he has taken on lease, as a sort of occasional holiday and pic-nic resort for his well-behaved patients. Costello had just then published a letter to Lord Ashley, on the reform of private asylums for the insane. A copy of that pamphlet is now before us. It is an appeal in behalf of the rich insane for legislative protection. The Bill lately introduced by Lord Ashley contemplates chiefly the insane poor; not observing the fallacy, that, b ecau se the sane rich are well able to take care of them bmuetreall the imaginable e v il s attend ing to inadequate accommoda selves, the insane rich must be so too. Th ere i s, unfor tunately, a prejudic e which leads the friends of the in sane to seek extreme privacy for the m , and thus they tbecomeaccommoda tion aand their becoming o bjects of speculation. D r . Costelli, t exposes the deficie ncies of the g ener ality of private houses for the insa ne, and recommends the ample and interesting d ex t po rea s t ed me i n io t , scenery which is found in his own esta blishment. Private asylums should never be in cities ; they should be in cheerful rural situations, where the inmates may avail themselves of the composing and healh-re storing effects of husbandry and gardening. Within doors, the patient should find no deprivation o f his ac customed conveniences, comforts, luxuries, and even elegancies ; but rather an improvement in them all. While deprecating the idea of surrounding the patient of condition with u nnecessary deprivations in externals. the author says—" While delirium runs high, it is true, external objects will be too little noticed to suggest un favourable comparisons; but this stage is often evanes cent, often only periodical, and the bitter pang is felt in full force when the mist begins to clear away. The poor derive benefit from the better food and better care of the public asylum, and can we doubt the influence of causes relatively the same in regard to the rich ? The internal arrangements, therefore, of a private asylum, should be in accordance with the tastes and occupations of the inmates; and the tedium of uniformity must be prevented by such aids as are employed for the same ever) purpose in --day life. Billiards, books, and music, are not enough. There must be social re-unions, and even dancing, with a view to affording opportunities of mixing in the society of persons of sound mind. This is a point in the moral treatment of great importance. To have the world and its recreations brought, from time to time, into contact with the insane, is less valuable even as an amusement or a pastime, than as a means of satisfying them, especially when allowed to meet their friends or relatives, not only that they are not forgotten, but that their return to that world, its business and its duties, is still looked for with anxiety and delight. How much of happi ness, how much of sanity, do they secure by this oft-pre aented idea "If one could forget early impre sions, and in stances of proved delinquency in some ill-conducted establish ments, we shouldmodify our feelings in a great degree as re gards private asylums. -- Proofs of the most interesting de scription abound, to show that these are anything but places to inspire horror. " When well-conducted, and there are many such, mirth and cheerfulness—not forced or feigned—appear to be pervading influence. Lasting friendships are often formed; and many whom restored mental health recalls to the world, experience lively and sincere regrets in parting with those whose care or companionship had so laced them under so heavy a dispensation ; and many, too, would remain, preferring to any other abode that which friends had consigned them to in the hour of affliction. "The family group in an asylum is, or ought to be, as sociated in conversation, light reading, and all the diversified occupations that embellish refined society, with no other restraint than what individual circumstances may require, and the enlightened kindness of the head of the house may dictate. "In this ideal of an establishment, the patients are the guests and associates of the physician and his family, and without such dictatorship and association, it cannot be re alised. In his own person are combined the charac ters of parent, friend, guide, and physician, and this amounts to saying that he is indispensable. To him is assigned the task of moderating the impressions from without—of regulating, through the medium of his own family, the desirable degree of intercourse with the world ; his table and his family circle are the sole, safe chan nels for such intercourse. Here the first public efforts of a returning healthy mental activity meets its needed encore ragements, and here, too, the poor sufferer, doomed never to know the delights of recovery, experiences protection, and even pleasure, to the full measure of his blighted faculties. Advantages so obviously desirable are placed completely, and perhaps voluntarily. out of the reach of patients kept at home or in private families, and the case is even worse where they are confided to keepers or servants, with the occasional attendance of a medical man. Under such circum stances, cure is not only likely to be marred , but it may be wilfully and maliciously prevented. The continued employment of these attendants depends on the con tinuation of the malady ; the resources available for moral treatment from uninterrupted intercourse with persons of their own station, are wasted, from their inferiority of social position, want of education, or irritability of disposition, which in the circumstances we are contemplating, is uncon trolled, and therefore the more likely to arise. Fretfulness and bickering, as permanent conditions of the patient's mind, induced by the small excesses of an unreasoning domestic authority, which he is ever ready to dispute, either in fear or in anger, can have so other than unfavourable conse quences. He distrusts and dreads his attendant, and the latter, goaded by what he considers injustice and ingratitude in the patient, gives way to peevishness, and, by way of beginning the monotony of the occupation, repays him with sour looks, coarse and contemptuous language, neglect, or something worse. The effect of treatment in which caprice and recrimi nation, waywardness, and spite, hold such unhappy sway, ;XI 13%1 13 . —83 s: !m 414 es I f 6.61 —678 66s NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION HOUSE. George Stratford, a man of respectable appearance and good address, was brought before the Lord Mayor, upon the charge of haring obtained money and clothes from the Rev. Michael Gibbs, his Lordship's son, under fraudulent practices. Mr. Sturgeon, the principal clerk to the Mendicity Society, at. tended to prosecute the prisoner. The Rev. Mr. Gibbs, Vicar of Christ Church, Newgate.street, stated, that on Saturday the 6th of September, the prisoner called upon him, and represented himself to be the Honourable Mr. Stratford;; declared that he was in a condition of extreme want, in fact, next to starving; that he had called upon the Lord Mayor, but not finding his Lordship at home, he bad come to sl itness in the hope of receiving the assistance which would enable him to go into the service of a Mr. Edwards, of Houn. slow, at some powder-mills there, whose only ground of hesita. tiou about forming an engagement with him was, that he bad not better clothe•. Witness gave the prisoner eighteenpence, and told him at what hour he could see and communicate with the Lord Mayor. On the same evening the prisoner returned to witness, stated that he had seen the Lord Mayor, and exhi. bited a five.shilling.piece, which he said he had received from his Lordship. Witness then gave him a bundle of clothes, con sisting of coat, waistcoat, and trousers. The prisoner said, upon receiving the clothes, that he should go at once to Hounslow to secure the situation, and promised to inform witness or the Lord Mayor of the result of his application for the appointment. Some days afterwards the prisoner called at the Mansion-house, and stated to witness that be had obtained the situation, but he stood in need of six shillings, in order to be enabled to remove his wife to Hounslow. Witness accordingly lent him six shillings, which he promised to return at the end of the week; but the promise was not performed, neither did he make his appearance, and it was subsequently ascertained that the statements had no foundation in fact. William Horseford, an officer of the Mendicity Society, stated that he went to Hounslow, to the powder• mills, and found that there was no Mr. Edyards there. He then called upon Mr. Carlin, the proprietor of powder-mills in that place, to make in quiry, and was told that there was no such person there, and that no such person as Mr. Edwards had been known there for twenty seven years. " ' The Loan MAYOR desired to be informed whether the prisoner was known to the establishment of the Mendicity Society 2 Horseford replied that the man had been known to the Mendicity Society since about the year 1837 ; and added that a begging peti • . tion had been found upon him, and that witness had known him as an associate of persons who lived by mere begging, and one of whom had been lately tried at the Central Criminal Court. The Loao MAYOR—Now, prisoner, what have you to say in an swer to this very serious charge ? The prisoner —My Lord, I am the son of the Earl of Aldborough, the son and heir of that noble. man, and I have been deserted by my father. I have a wife and family to support, and I have made every effort to support thin. I bare worked in the docks, and at all sorts of menial employments, and my father, although in the enjoyment of 16,000/. a year, has wholly abandoned me. What could I do, my Lord ? lamin a state of utter destitution. ' • ' •• ' The LORD MAYOR—What you have stated has nothing to do with the charge against you. The charge against you is, that you ob tained alms underfraudulent pretences. _ The prisoner—l solemnly declare that lam the legitimate son of the Earl of Aldborough. Mr. Sturgeon, the clerk to the Mendicity Society, stated that there was no truth in tke assertion of the prisoner, or as to the legitimacy of his birth. There might be ground for supposing that he was the illegimate offspring of the Earl. The prisoner—l am the son and heir of Lord Aldborough, and I have been deserted, together with my two sisters, by my father, who is new at Doncaster, and has 16,000/. a year clear property. The LORD MAYOR—You say nothing in explanation of your statement about the situation at Hounslow ? Prisoner—l admit I was wrong there. I was guilty of having misrepresented in that instance, but I can prove that I have worked at the docks, and that I have been willing to undergo the greatest drudgery. The officers of the Mendicity Society assured his Lordship that the prisoner was an incorrigible beggar, and that he was in the habit of persisting, with great apparent candour, in whatever statement he considered best adapted to his object of working upon the sympathies of the humane and generous people who abounded in London. As for the idea of labour, it never entered into the man's imagination for a moment, but he had a wonderful capabi. lily of varying the circumstances of his fantastic distresses, and so far could be called industrious. The LORD MLYOR—I consider the case a very bad one indeed. You came to me, and mentioned, in the most plausible manner, certain circumstances as haying occurred which had never taken place. I relieved what I considered to be your immediateneceasities, and I told you to let me see you again. I then, at your entreaty, let you have a sovereign, which you said you would return in a week, but I told you that the repayment would answer at the end of a month, when your wages at Hounslow would capacitate you to make restitution. In everything you have acted the impostor. I know all about it, and I know with whom you went into a pub. lic.house when you received the money which the recital of your pretended misfortunes wrung out of me, so that my experience of your conduct affords an additional argument in justification of the decision to which I come upon the evidence before me. We have here abundance of real objects to exercise our pity upon. I con vict you as a rogue and vagabond, and sentence you to hard labour in Bridewell for three calendar months. The prisoner —What could I do, my Lord ? I acknowledge that I deceived you ; but what on earth could I do? lam en. titled to the rank and fortune of a nobleman, and I am com. pletely destitute. The prisoner was• then removed from the bar, In bitter terms ascribing to his parent's unnatural conduct the whole train of his calamities. SUPPLEMENT TO THE EVENING SUN, WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 18.15 ous manner of the three, who joined each other upon a signal, 'which seemed to be well understood by them, caused them to be watched, and, one of them having been observed to quit a tobacco. shop hastily, inquiries were made there, and it was discovered that a counterfeit fourpenny piece had been uttered in payment for a pennyworth of tobacco. The prisoners were accordingly pur , sued anti taken into custody, but their associate escaped. On subsequent inquiries at the different shops the prisoners had visited, it was found they had uttered counterfeit fourpenny pieces at each, which were so well executed, and bore such a simiAude to the genuine coin, that it was a matter of considerable difficulty to detect the diffifence. Some of the base money was produced, and it was stated that when the prisoners were taken into custody, each of them had a genuine sixpence in his possession, from which circumstance it was inferred that the man who escaped was the person who supplied them with the base money, and remained out side the different shops in the event of a discovery taking place. Mr. CorriNonam said that utterers of counterfeit money were on the increase at that side of the water, and that it behoved tradesmen and others to be particularly on their guard, as base fourpenny pieces were a description of coin that were not in much circulation, and therefore might be easily taken for the genuine, especially as those produced were such a very close imitation of them. The Magistrate then asked the prisoners what account they gave of themselves ?—The prisoners said they had very little to say, only that they were not aware the fourpenny pieces they had passed were bad ; that they lived at Whitechapel, and had come over to the south side of the river for a walk. The NAUISTRATE said that it was incalculable the losses sus tained by tradesmen owing to the quantity of base money uttered by persons like the prisoners, and that Ls he had very little doubt they would be identified by the Solicitor of the Mint, he should therefore remand them until Saturday. Hen.hioNic InnAamonics.—William Began, a young man with his face disfigured from bruises, was charged with committing a violent assault on a policeman of the M division, and with destroy ing a quantity of his mother's property. It ap,seared that on the preceding night the defendant was chair. man of an harmonic meeting in Tooley. street, and having imbibed a considerable portion of grog, he quitted the chair and proceeded home. He, however, had scarcely entered the house when he commenced the work of destruction by pulling down a Dutch clock, smashing it to pieces, and threatening to knock out his mother's brains with the weights. The poor woman was so much alarmed at the violence exhibited by her son that she called in the aid of the police, but before their arrival he destroyed nearly the whole of her furniture, and made the most violent resistance, striking and kick. ing the policeman in the most savage maimer. At length he was secured and lodged in the station-house. The defendant called the magistrate's attention to his disfigured countenance, saying that it was done by the policeman, who, how ever, denied the assertion, declaring that he had received the in jury in an encounter he had on quitting the harmonic meeting. The defendant's mother pleaded strongly in his behalf, and urged that he was a good son to her until he joined the harmonic meet. ing, and that it led him into all kinds of dissipation. Mr. Corrisonme said that such plans as those, where the har monic meeting was held, frequently led young men into extrava. gance and debauchery ; but the defendant might have committed some desperate act while he was under the influence of liquor, and that in order to prevent a repetition of such conduct, he should now hold him to bail to keep the peace. The defendant was locked up in default of procuring the re quired sureties. Sept. rept. Sept.

UTTERING COUNTERF EIT COIN. —Yesterday William Baynes and William Reynolds, two well-dressed men, were brought before Mr. Cottingham, charged with uttering counterfeit fourpenny pieces at several tradesmen's shops in the Borough. It appeared that the prisoners, in company with another man not in custody, were observed that morning in the Kent-road by two policemen in plain clothes to enter several shops, one of them going in first, while his companions waited outside.

LOAN SOClETlES.—Yesterday Mr. David Walters, a coffee-house keeper, in Rosemary-lane, applied to the Hon. J. C. Norton, who eat for Mr. Ballantine, to solicit his advice and assistance under the following circumstances : Mr. Walters stated that a few months since he became security for a man who procured a loan of 51. 4s. at the Bell Loan office, Church-row, Aldgate, for which he had to pay Its. 6d., besides the expenses of making inquiries. The loan was to be repaid by instalments of 2s. a week. The borrower paid thirty-nine instal ments, leaving thirteen due when he failed to make good his pay ments, and the consequence was that letters were written both to the borrower and security, threatening legal proceedings unless the balance of the loan was forthwith paid. The borrower waited upon the secretary and expressed his inability to pay the 26s (thirteen instalments due upon the loan, and the whole of which was demanded) until the termination of the hopping season, as he was going into Kent to pick hops. The secretary or clerk agreed to stay proceedings until the borrower's return from the hop country, and this arrangement was communicated to him (Mr. Walters), and he felt satisfied he should not be put to any trouble or expense. On Saturday, however, he received a notice d emanding 265., and 1/. 10s. for expenses. Mr. NORTON asked for the notice, and the applicant put in a copy of a writ from the Palace Court, Westminster, demanding a debt of 5/. 45., and 11. 10s, for expenses. Mr. NORTON—It is a writ, and issued by one of the Palate Court attorneys in Clifford's Inn. How much do you say there is due upon the loan ? Mr. Walters replied, only 265., and he waited upon one of the officers of the loan society that morning, and offered him that sum, but he refused to accept of it without 1/. 10s. more for expenses. He asked the loan society man what the expenses were for, and he said that was his business, and threatened that unless 2/. 16s. was immediately paid, further costs to a large amount would be incurred. Mr. NORTON—Then you offered the 265. really due ? Mr. Walters—l did, Sir. lam a poor man, and cannot afford to pay 11. 10s. for costs. lam sure the borrower would pay the remain. ing instalments of the loan after he had done hop picking. Mr. NORTON thought it was a hard case to call upon any man to pay 30s, costs on a debt of 265., and if he remem bered the Loan Societies' Act rightly, the applicant might defeat the society who were now suing him, if he employed a clever attorney. Mr. Walters said he had no disposition to go to law, and thought, after the exorbitant interest which had been charged• the society ought not to saddle him with expenses. • Mr. NORTON thought so too, and said he was most anxious to help the applicant if there was any way of doing so. Mr. Lindley, the junior clerk, said that if the society had been enrolled under the Act of Parliament, there was a mode of pro ceeding by which the action brought against Walters might be superseded. Mr. Walters was afraid the society was not enrolled, and that he was at the mercy of the attorney. Mr. NORTON said the society ought to have adopted a more reasonable mode of enforcing payment of the balance of the loan, and he looked upon this as a somewhat harsh pro• ceeding. He directed Macready, a police-constable, No. tl H, one of the officers attached to the Court, to wait upon the secretary of the society, and communicate his sentiments on the subject. The society ought not to call upon a man to pay 30s. costs for a debt of 265. Mr. Walters thanked the magistrate, and withdrew with the constable. TOBACCO SMUGGLING ON BOARD SHlP.—Yesterday, Thomas Jackson, a seaman, belonging to the ship Brothers, of Goole, late from Hamburgh, and now lying off Pickle-herring stairs, Horse ly down, was brought before the Hon. G. C. Norton, charged with smuggling 561 b. of foreign manufactured tobacco, and 2ilb. of cigars, which were found secreted in the vessel. The penalty sued for was 1001. The defendant pleaded guilty. The MAGISTRATE said he would hear the witnesses. Thomas Hayward, an officer of Customs, said, that on rummag ing the forecastle of the vessel he discovered a bulkhead, which he pulled down, and on removing some coals under the forecastle, he found fifty.tbree papers of tobacco, each weighing about a pound, and two boxes of cigars. The defendant said the tobacco and cigars belonged to him, and that he had concealed them under the coals. Mr. Cornell, appraiser of condemned goods in the port of Lon don, said the value and duty on the tobacco and cigars was 30f. Bs. Bd., and they were of foreign manufacture. Mr. NORTON fined the prisoner 1001., and said he had no power of mitigation. He supposed the whole penalty would not be enforced. Mr. Potbury, clerk to' the solicitor of Customs, said the quantity of tobacco seized was large, and the whole of it was in small packages, which were made up to be carried under the clothes ashore. The case was not one calling for much commiseration. Mr. NORTON told the prisoner his case would be fully considered by the Board of Customs, and made out his commitment to prison. ADVERTISEMENT.

THE RUSSIAN STEAMER VLADIMIR.—This beau tiful vessel, which has been lying alongside Waterloo-quay for the last few weeks, has attracted the notice of large numbers of our citizens. She is of a handsome model, which, however, being some what different from that of the steamers we generally see here, has made it an object of far greater attraction. But the beauties of the vessel do not consist solely in the handsome exterior—the interior fittings are in a style the most superb, and at the same time sub stantial— not gaudy and superficial, but massive and apparently en during. What is called the Emperor's cabin is situated on the deck, and its fittings up are of the most superior description. The vessel, as we stated in a former number, was built by a Liverpool company lbr the Emperor of Russia. She is manned partly by English and partly by Russian sailors. The principal steward is a Scotchman, and the other an Englishman; and the engineer —so much for old Scotland, the scientific characteristic of whose sons has put their services in request on every sea and in every clime—is a Paisley man of the name of Thomson. The vessel, we understand, is to sail in a few clays for Cronstadt.-46erdeert Banner.
