The many novul and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu tion, both in its life as,snrance and deferred annuity departments, par ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex pense or forfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies— the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to suit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well as to afford the full benefit to his faintly at death, and annual division of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that the Society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy on the profit scale a bonus averaging tiny-tive per cent. on the amount already invested; and this bonus, according to an equitable scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of future premiums.

Expressly established for Insurances on the Lives of Mariners, (whether members of the Royal or Mercantile Navy) and Military officers.—lt is to be noted that the Policies of this Company will cover voyages of every description and service in every part of the globe. The Lives of Fishermen and Boatmen also Insured. High rates of premium have hitherto operated against this kind of Assurance, but as the scale now adopted will be found as low as is consonant with the risk, it is believed that this fact, coupled with other advantages, will induce a great increase of insurers. Deferred Annuities to Mariners granted upon very moderate Premiums. _ The Premiums for General Assurances are based upon a new ad justed table of mortality.

In 1841 the Company declared an addition to the Shareholders of one-half of their Stock, and also added a Bonus of 21. per cent. per annum, on the Sum Insured to all Policies of the Participating Class from the time they were effected. The Bonus aidett to Policies from March, 1834, to December 31, 1840, is as follolfs : Sum Time Sum added Sum Time Sum added Assured. Assured. to Policy. Assured.

NORTHERN ClRCUlT.—Lancaster, Feb. 19. The Learned Judges of Assize arrived here from London on Saturday evening, and opened the commission for the northern division of the county of Lancaster. Yesterday, their Lordships attended Divine service, as usual, in the parish church. _ This morning, about ten o'clock, they proceeded to the Castle. Mr. Justice Coltman took his seat in the Crown Court, and charged the grand jury; and Mr. Baron Rolfe proceeded to the Nisi I'rius side. The business is remarkably light. On the civil side there were only three causes, all of which were undefended, and wore disposed of in less than half an hour from the com mencement of business. The Learned Baron then rose ' but afterwards returned to Court, and tried two or three Mint cases and a case of simple larceny. The calendar contains a list of 17 cases, nearly all of the ordinary kind usually tried at quarter-sessions, and nearly all of which were disposed of before five o'clock. It would be no difficult matter to finish the whole in the day. Two or three will, however, remain for to-morrow. Nothing of interest, or indeed worth recording, occurred during the day.

BAGLEY.--CRIM. CON. At the sitting of the Court on Tuesday the evidence on the part of the plaintiff in this case was resumed. Its ten dency was to confirm the testimony of the witnesses examined yesterday ; but no new facts were elicited beyond those given in the testimony of the persons examined on behalf of the plaintiff's case on the first day. That evidence being concluded, Mr. F. KELLT said that he should be able to prove that a great deal of what his Learned Friend had been instructed by the plaintiff to state, in his opening of the case, was utterly false and unfounded; and he then proceeded to con tend, that under none of the circumstances in this unfortu nate business had the plaintiff a right to come into this Court, and ask for damages for the loss of his wife's society. Mr. Fraser had been led by motives ofcupidity and avarice, to seek: a union with his unhappy and persecuted wife, passing, and re presenting himself as a man of fortune and substance, at a time when, in point of fact, he had not a shilling which he could call his own. The lady, at the time a widow, had 10,0001. of her own, in addition to an annuity of 300/. from the East India Company ; 6,000/. of this money was previously to the marriage with Mr. Fraser settled on herself, but the other 4,0001. he got possession of, and squandered in acts of extra vagance. He should prove that it was the money, and not the lady, which the plaintiff sought in his union with her; and he should show that he led the life of a reckless and abandoned man ; that he was never at home during the day, or in the evening, except on Sundays, and on such occasions as he expected company ; and that often, while he was sup posed to be absent upon his professional avocations, he was spending his substance on other persons. To talk of the plaintiff's being deprived of his wife's society by any act of. the defendant, was utterly absurd. He never had it, for he was scarcely ever at home ; and Mrs. Fraser was an object of sympathy with all who knew her. Shortly after six o'clock the case was again adjourned. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

Mary MathiPn, a pretty-looking female, about eighteen years of age, who had an infant in her arms, was placed at the bar before Mr. Itawlinson, charged under the following circumstances : Police constable Ovendon, 80 D, stated that on the previous morning, between five and six o'clock, he saw the prisoner walking up and down on one side of Manchester-square. He desired her to go away, telling her at the same time that if she did not do so, he should be compelled to take her somewhere else, when she directly used abusive and obscene language towards him, in consequence of which he con veyed her to the station-house. Witness added, that he be lieved her to be a prostitute. Mr. RAwalisoN—Was she doing nothing more than walk ing in the square when you took her into custody? Witness —1 knew her object in being where she was, your Worship. There's a gentleman living in the square, who encourages girls at his house continually, and many of them are no more than twelve years of age. lam sorry to observe, too, that the person I speak of is a man of title, living at No. 21. Air. RAwuNSoN—We have no secrets here. What is his name? Witness—Sir Hugh Munro. 1 have spoken to some of the girls after they have left his house, and they have told me that they stand upon the door mat in his hall, where he talks to them indecently, and that they use lan guage of a similar kind, in return for which he gives them money. A number of the inhabitants in the square have complained more than once of the nuisance, and 1 have been stationed there to do all I can to abate it. The son has also written to complain of his father's goings on. Our reporter has, from subsequent Inquiry made by him, ascertained that the constable was in error. It was the ne phew, and not the son who communicated with the police upon the subject. Mr. RAWLINSON—(to the prisoner)—Whose child is that which you have in your arms? Prisoner—lts my own, Sir. I am no prostitute, I assure you ; and I was waiting for a friend when the officer took me. Mr. ItAwuNsoN—You are discharged now, but take care that you are not brought here again. The Magistrate, then addressing Inspector Black, said, would there be any harm in your calling upon this gentleman, or sending some one, to acquaint him of the nuisance, in order that it may be abated? Mr. Black—lt's rather a delicate matter, Sir, and I don't know how far we can interfere as to what may be done in side the house. It is not in my district, but I'll represent to Inspectors Tedman and Brown all that has been - here stated in reference to the case. CLERKENWELL. Two young men, named Russell and Payne, were charged with endeavouring to commit the following imposture : On the previous evening the prisoners went into the beer shop of Mr. Abourne, in Cross-street, Islington, and called for a'pint of half-and-half. The liquor was supplied to them, and, as payment for it, they handed the potman a yellowish piece of metal, having the appearance of a sovereign, but which, on inspection, turned out to be one of those little gilt medals sold in the streets at a penny each. The prisoners repeatedly affirmed that it was a soyiereign, and demanded 19s. 9d. as their change. They were given into custody. The prisoner Payne made a desperate resistance, but was even tually secured. Sergeant Pagan said that Russell was a very. bad character. The prisoners were in liquor on the previous evening, and each of them had eightpence in coppers on his person, with which the porter might have been paid for. The prisoners were held to bail. Two young women of very miserable appearance named Selina Harmon and Sarah Carter, were charged with robbing ready-furnished lodgings of bed, bed-clothes, and other articles value 31., the property of Mrs. Pinnock, 12, Mount Pleasant, -Gray's Inn-lane. The prisoners are boot-spring makers ; they took a single room from Mrs. Pinnock in De cember, and on Monday she discovered that they had pawned everything in the room. The bed had been pledged in the beginning of January, so that the unfortunate creatures had nothing to lie upon but the boards since then. The officer, Philips, saw nothing in the room but a dirty sheet, a piece of a blanket, and two chairs, but no food. The prisoners who cried bitterly, admitted having pawned the articles, but declared they were driven to do so by des titution. The landlady said all she wanted was to get back her pro perty. She had no desire to punish them. The prisoners were remanded to give them an opportunity of coming -to an arrangement with the prosecutrix. Mr. Philip. John, a surgeon, residing in St. John-street, was summoned to answer the complaint of Mrs. Murket, the wife of a foreigner, living in St. John's-lane, for an assault. The complainant deposed that on Saturday last she answered a knock at her door, and the defendant asked if her husband was at home ; she replied in the negative, upon which he pushed by her, and set himself, unasked, down upon a chair in the kitchen, saying he would wait until Mr. Murket returned. She directed him to go away, saying it was not a fit thing for him to stay in the same room with a lone young woman; he refused ; sho said she would send for a policeman ; but, as he still persisted in remaining, she seized the chair for the purpose of dragging it away from him, when lie caught her by the throat, and dung her over towards the other side of the room; and this he did five or six times, so that her breast was covered with bruises, and her little child frightened almost to death. A portrait-painter in the next room, hearing her screams, rushed in and interfered. The doctor said, the fact was, he had obtained an order for the . lament of 165., in the Court of Requests, a ga i ns t M r . Mur - et, and•it was to serve this. upon him that he went to the house. He had been a long time kept out of his money, which was for professional attendance. He did not strike the Complainant, but she struck him, and tore his coatin flitters; he firmly believed her husband was concealed in a closet the entire time. Mr. COMM advised Mrs. Murket to pay her doctor's bill. It too often happened that tenants and other debtors; instead of paying the lawful demands upon them, sought a pretext for going to law and injuring their creditors. He would dismiss the summons. A wretched-looking woman, named Smith, residing in Dawes-court, Gunpowder-alley, Shoe-lane, complained to the Magistrate that the Clerkenwell parochial authorities had refused to relieve her. She stated that her husband was working in the yard of industry, attached to Clerkenwell Workholise, but did not always get employment there.- Som days he earned as much as a shilling, but upon others not more than fourpenee. Herself and their two little children were reduced to the greatest distress. Her husband had ob tained a settlement in Clerkenwell parish. Mr. COMM said he would mention her case to the paro chial authorities of Clerkenwbll as soon as they came befo the Court. A young man, namod Green, was remanded on a charge of burglariously entering the house of Mr. Evans, boot and shoe maker, Paddington-street, Marylebone, and stealing there from a large quantity of property. The burglary was effected on the night of the 21st ult. but the only portion of the plunder yet traced is a pair of boots, which the prisoner sold to a man namod Cripps. The prisoner had been in Mr. Evans'employ - meut, and left it on the night immediately preceding that on which the burglary was com mitted. Lord Brougham is suffering severely from lum bago. his Lordship was unable to stand upright when speaking in the House on Monday night. • MISS STRICKLAND'S " LIVES OP TIIIT QUEENS OF ENCiLAND."—We observe that a new edition has just been published by Mr; Colburn, of Miss Strickland's "LiVes of the Queens of England." This new edition has received the benefit of a most complete revision by the authoress • and also embodies all the a ccess o r y i n f or m a ti on w hi c h s he has been enabled to obtain throUgh her own careful research, and the kindness of those numerous friends who have placed the various vahiable historical documents, of which they were the possessors, at her disposal. The increasing popularity of this work is a gratifying proof of the estimation in which lives Strickland's labours are held by the public. " The lives of the Queens of England " will certainly font one or the most stentleri works in our loigtorkAllitertiture,- THE ANTI-LEAGUE. It has long been a matter of regret to all who like to see things well matched and fitted, that the " League" has not yet fallen in with a respectable and suitable antagonist. That most pugna cious of knight.errants has too long been permitted to fling about challenges before sympathetic audiences, and provoke the void air to disputation. The desideratum, we now rejoice to say, Is in a fair way of being supplied. Yester'day witnessed the first actual steps towards an Anti-League —a grand combination of numbers, money, wisdom, and eloquence, competent to fight the League on its own ground of popular agitation. As the new body has not yet quite emerged from the alluvial mud and artificial compost in which it has been engendered, it may, perhaps, be premature to an. nounce positively its final organization, name, and functions. At present it is known as an intended " Central Agricultural Protec tion Society." The object of this new creation is noble and com. prehensive. One can hardly venture to say what it does not embrace. It is nothing less than "to protect the most important interests of the country," as we are informed on high legal authority; and if the view seem a little narrowed when we find in the second resolution that its object Is to maintain protection for British agriculture, at least equivalent to that at present existing, we may rest assured this latter object is on►y a means to an end. That some larger and more popular design is intended than ever yet was conceived in the timid and bashful bosom of agriculture may be inferred from the plans and the agents now adopted. The " farmers' friend," the pride of yeomen, the noble Ctiandos, is now but " the shadow of poor Buckingham"— in fact, he is reduced to play the second fiddle to the more political and economical Duke of Richmond. The subordinate agents also appear to be of a rather more active and versatile class than the dull indigenous English farmer. A slight doubt hangs over their real qualifications for the office; but this is covered by an im. portant hint, that they will be abundantly supplied with the sinews of war—to what exact extent, and from whom, it would of course be impertinent to Inquire. But something deeper and darker remains to be told. Whether because there happens to be a panic just now among political associa. Lions, or because there really is some wonderful scheme of agricultural " repeal" in contemplation, certain it is this new body suspects itself. It recoils from its own shadow. Frightened by its consciousness of concentrated ability and intense determina tion, or perhaps at its own numbers, it has recourse to a lawyer to assuage its terrors, and confesses to him its hidden fund of doubt. ful intentions. But innocence, and we supposes fee, is rewarded with a kind paternal encouragement. The agriculturists ate dis missed with a ►egal benediction, and the assurance, in which we heartily concur, that they are likely to prove perfectly harmless. Such a Panionium of British agriculturists must be one of the most interesting scenes that the poet or the painter could find in this barren world. Doubtless there were present all those great lords of the soil whose names are counties, and hundreds, and hills, and dales; round these Corinthian props of the cause were mustered solid ranks of gentlemen and yeomen; these " oplites" of the rural army, as Mitford would call them, were flanked by a vast multitude of sturdy labourers, with their wives and children; but in the foremost rank, the strongest, the most affecting auxiliaries, thousands of happy, peaceful old men and women, contented cripples, comforted widows, and smiling orphans, pointing to their sleek little bodies and decent raiment—all the undeniable fruits of agricultural protection. With such a body of friends and clients, the agriculturists need "not be ashamed when they speak with their enemies in the gate." No fear, no misgiving, no doubt of success, could by possibility mar the joy of so bright and unanimous an assemblage. There is one only difficulty in its way. What plain could be found large enough for so im. mense a body 1 , All England from sea to sea is cultivated up to the throat; not a heath, not a moor, not even a village common, is left; Salisbury Plain is now turned up right to the very stones of Stonehenge ; and to such admirable perfection and exactness is the system of succession husbandry now carried, that there is not even an acre of fallow to be found. So where—in what new agricultural Runnymede--are the assembled millions to vindicate the " most important interests in the coun try Sl" Alas for the poet and historian! Alas for the agriculturist There is no difficulty whatever. A zealous friend comes up to town, and follows the stream—not to Hyde-park—not to Lincoln's Inn-square--not even to the large room of Exeter hall, but—to Freema.sone-hall. There, there, packed and ticketed in that snuggest of rooms, he finds a handful of farmers and non. descripts—.tenant.farmers, honorary farmers, and farmers by courtesy. It I. left to imagination to supply the rapturous ap. plauses of the full-fed labourers, and the extatic satisfactions of the old men, widows, and orphans. Now, this won't do. If the times are not ripe for a better cx. hibition, let things alone for the present. The actual strength of the League consists, not in the length either of Its purse or its talk, but in the fact that some millions of men, women, and child ren, rightly or wrongly, happen to identify themselves with it, and consider their prosperity involved in its success. The agri. culturists boast that they have three times as many millions on their side of the question. Why not produce them ? Nobody expects or wishes labourers to enter into theories of political economy ; but why are they not grateful ? Why arc they not anxious for the continuance of the existing system ? Why don't they identify their own comforts with the splendour of the aristo. cracy ? They do not, and will not, so long as they have no other prospect than living—wife, children, and all—on 7s. or Bs. a week, and dying in a union workhouse.—Times. STATE OF IRELAND. LORDS' PROTEST. Dissentient,—Because the military occupation of one-third of the United Kingdom, avowedly on the ground of the gene ral discontent of the people, is a state of things which calls for the immediate attention of that Parliament to which are entrusted the interests of the whole United Kingdom. Because those discontents are not confined to that portion of the Irish people who advocate the repeal of the union, nor even to our Roman Catholic fellow-subjects alone. The grievances of this country are felt strongly and stated dis tinctly by some—the highest in rank and most influential in position—of the residents in Ireland of all religious per suasions. Because the attempt to govern a country possessing the framework of free institutions through the exclusive influ ence of a small minority never did and never can succeed. Because no satisfactory explanation has been given of the vacillation and subsequent rashness shown by the Govern ment, in dealing with the present agitation in Ireland. Because the recent legal proceedings have been conducted in a manner to deprive them of that weight in public opinion; which belongs to the due administration of justice. Because the measures announced by her Majesty's Govern ment, even if admitted to be in the right direction, are terly inadequate to meet the wants of the Irish people. Because; under the system pursued during the first four years of her Majesty's reign, the value of property in Ire land had increased, in consequence of the tranquillity pro duced.by confidence in the impartial administration of the laws. Since then, Ireland has become the chief difficulty of the Executive, and for this reason, that those who, as legislators, had previously impeded the' full extension of equal laws, have since, in the conduct of the Government, neglected to secure to that people the practical enjoyment of equal rights. _ NORMANDY.

THOMAS'S HOSPITAL—Last even ing Mr. Payne held no fewer than three inquests at St. Thomas's Hospital. The first was that of Joseph Freeman, aged 42 years, a drayman in the employ of Messrs. Barclay, Perkins, and Co. On Friday, the 9th instant, deceased was riding on the shafts of a waggon, loaded with.empty casks, over London-bridge, when, in his endeavours to jump off, he slipped and fell beneath the wheels, which passed over his left leg, and fractured it in a dr e adf u l manner. He was con veyed to the hospital, where the limb was amputated. He survived until Sunday morning last, when he died, the house surgeon said, from exhaustion. The second case was that of Elizabeth Callow, aged 42 years, who resided at No. 2, Queen Elizabeth's Cottages, Greenwich. On Sunday, the 11th deceased was in the act of assisting her aged bedridden pa rent, and whilst so doing her clothes by some means caught fire, and she was so much burnt that she expired on the 18th instant. The third case was that of Emily Marshall, aged 16 months, the daughter of James Maishall, Of No. 6, Bear lane, Gravel-lane, Southwark, who was so dreadfully scalded by the upsetting of hot water over the upper pai' of her body, that she died in a short time after her admission to the hospital. The , jury returned a" verdict in each case of— " Accidental death." GRAND CELTIC ENTERTAINMENT.—The celebrated Highland pipers and dancers, who had the honour of being selected by the Marquis of Breadalbane to perform before her Majesty and Prince Albert, at Taymouth Castle, during the Royal progress in Scotland, havc.arrived in London, to give a series of entertainments, similar in character to those with which her Majesty expressed so much gratification. Her Majesty has been graciously pleased to patronise the ob ject. The Highland Society of London also liberally assisted, and many of its most influential members were present last evening at the Music-hall, Store-street, Bedford-square, Where the first entertainment took place. The performers were five Highlanders, attired in the same national costume as when dancing before the Queen and Prince Albert, and the nobility of Scotland, at Taymouth Castle. The programme consisted of a selection of pieces from the most popular Celtic music. Amongst the tunes most applauded were--" Pio baireachd," " Sleam fein an gleaun ;" or, " The glen is mine ;" " The Highland laddie ;" and " Queen Victoria's welcome to Dunkeld; ' and amongst the dances, the " Gillie Callum, or Sword dance" (by Archibald M'Donald); "The Highland reel," and " The Iklarquis of Huntley's reel," were encored. The dancing of Archibald M'Donald, in the character of a Highland Shepherdess, was encored amidst enthusiastic plaudits. The performance was announced for repetition on Friday evening. A national song, in keeping with the music and the dancing, now and then, during the evening, would be an improvement to these entertainments. THE IRISH PEASANTRY.—Whatever may be said of the Irish peasantry, it is an indisputable fact that they are hard-working and faithful servants, as faithful as the dog to his master; and anything that is given them they are most grateful for. Notwithstanding the before unheard-of logic of the Attorney-General, that the monster meetings, because of their perfect peacefulness, were the more to be apprehended, they have stamped upon the Irish peasantry everlasting credit. Probably the fighting Attorney-General considered intimperance and a breach of the law the most secure, and that may explain for his challenge to Mr. Fitzgibbon. THE ACCIDENT ON TH E SOUTH-WESTERN RAIL'7 wAY.--The unfortunate man, Weller, is still lying in St. Thomas's Hospital in a very precarious state. .He remained perfectly insensible up to yesterday, when a slight return of consciousness took place. It is stated, however, that very Utile hope of his tatiraate recovery is entertained. SIGHT AND HEARING.

THE never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS in curing every description of Lout and Rheumatism have secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, where the patient has bee . driven nearly to madness by the excruciating tortillas of this di,ease, but restore to perfect hoalth in an inconceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in rheumatism, either chronic or acute, lumbago, sciatica pains in the head or face, and indeed for every rheumatic or gouty affection; in fact, such has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has asto. nished ail who have taken it, and there is not a city, town, or lage in the kingdom, but contains many grateful evidences of its benign influence.

SCALPEL'S ANATOMY of the PEERAGE ; forming a com plete History of the Peerage of the United Kingdom, for the Informa tion of ita People. The WEEKLY CHRONICLE is now printed on superior paper of the largest sire, containing more reading matter than any other Lon don weekly paper. Great care is bestowed on the condensation and arrangement of its general news and Parliamentary intelligence, of which it gives a much fuller and far more satisfactory summary than any of its Contemporaries. And this it is enabled to do from the principle on which its contents are selected and adjusted; for while the Weekly Chronicle will be found to give due attention to literature, science, the fine arts, the drama, and even' to sporting intelli gence; so far as this latter can bo said to interest the general reader, neither sporting, nor any other feature of minor interest, aro allowed to supersede the proper objects of a newspaper—those sub jects of breathing, living import to the progress of society, and to the well-being of the people throughout the whole length and breadth of Home and Colonial England. The Weekly Chronicle is the'advocate of extended suffrage—of the ballot—of a shortened duration of Par liament—of free trade—of systematic colonisationof the education of the people on the principles of civil and religious liberty—of a re adjustment of the revenues of the Irish Church, and of other measures of justice calculated to consolidate the union—of peace at home and abroad—of a repeal of the odio n income-tax, with a reduction of the expenditure ; and not to extend the catalogue, it may be said that it treats all other public questions in a kindred spirit and tone; whilst its means of information may be judged from the fact that it was, among other instances of early intelligence, the first to announce to the world the visit of the Queen to France—the determination of the Government to arrest O'Connell and his friends—both which facts were announced in the Weekly Chronicle for Several days before they were communicated to the Government press. The Weekly Chronicle also announced recently the intended recal of Earl de Grey —a state ment which was contradicted at the time by the whole of the Go vernment press, but which the Weekly Chronicle never shrank ffom, and which now passes unchallenged as a fact. Arrangements have been made for bringing down the news con tained in the Weekly Chronicle to a much later date than usual, in some instances anticipating the average of last year by a week ; and, to effect this, every department of the paper has been scrupulously revised and efficiently re-constructed. For the convenience of our friends, the three following editions are published; and, by attending to these directions, the substitution of any other edition for the one preferred, and for which the order should be distinctly given, may be prevented :- 1. An edition for exclusive circulation in the provinces en the Sa turday, marked " Country Edition.!' 2.

Nearly 4,000 persons were present. After receiving the diplomatic body in the Salle du Trbne, their Majesties entered the Salle de Marechaux at about nine o'clock, and dancing commenced immediately. The King retired to his cabinet at ten, to write and transact business, but returned at twelve, and took his s ea t by the side of the Queen. At one o'clock, their Majesties, followed by the foreign Ambassadors, proceeded to the Salle de Spec tacle, where covers had been laid for supper for four hundred persons. The scene was here exceedingly splendid, from the immense number of wax lights burning, and the elegance of the ladies' dresses. The King and Duke de Nemours re mained standing at the entrance whilst the ladies were at supper. The party did not break up till four in the morning. Lieutenant-General Pajol, in leaving the ball, fell, frac tured his left thigh, and received other injuries. He was im mediately conveyed home, and as soon as the King heard of the accident, he sent his own surgeons to attend him. The Duke de Montpensier arrived at MarseiHes on Thurs day morning, and was to embark in the evening, for Algiers. A Toulon letter of the 14th states, that the brig-of-war Palinure has received orders to proceed to Alicant, and that some other vessels-of-war are to hold themselves in readiness to sail for the of Spain. • The question of the execution of the great lines of rail road has been provisionally resolved, by the Govennnent, in favour of the mixed system estaNished by the law of the 11th June, 1842. Consequently, a Bill will speedily be pre sented to the Chamber of Deputies. The Journal de Manheim states from Constantinople, Jan. 24, that the differences between the Porte and Perna have been settled by the influence of the English and .Russian Commissioners. A letter from Vienna, in the Augsburg Ciazette, states that a notice, signed by the President of the Aulic Chamber, was posted up at the I;ourse on the 9th inst., expressly prohibit ing all transactions in public stock or - shares that are not quoted in the official list—in fact, that have not received the sanction of the Government. The letter states that the ex tent of gambling in Leghorn railroad shares bas rendered this order necessary. LAW AND POLICE. 'At Lambeth-street Police-court, Thomas Brand and James Eccles, young men of gentlemanly appearan c e, we re charmed before Mr. Henry with causing the d ea th o f 'Ellen Goodlad, an unfortunate female 7or 18 years of age, by inducing her to take a large quantity of gin, on Friday night last, at the Gar rick Tavern, in Lemon-street. Both prisoners denied calling or paying for the liquor, and their solicitor contended that there was no proof whatever that they had done so, They were held to bail. At the Woolwich Police-court, John Hawkesworth and John Batt, two convicted thieves, were charged with feloni ously breaking into the house of Mr. Heard, Woolwich-com mon, on the night of the 23d January last, and stealing 111 quaditity of property therefrom ; also a second charge of steal ing a quantity of linen, belonging to a Mrs. Ware, laundress, of Jackson's-lane. They were committed for trial. Thomas Adams, John Ives, Steven, Richard Turner, and Samuel Richardson, apprentices, and Joseph Rowe, an engineer, in the employ of Messrs. Miller and Ra venhill, engineers, of Mil wall, were brought before Mr. Broderip, at the Thames Police Court, on the charge of as saulting: Ann Troup, the wife of a man employed as a tool maker in the same establishment. It appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Troup, that her husband had been lately confined to his bed by illness; and the -workmen and appren tices belonging to the factory came to the toneh,mion that he was skulking, and on the morning of the 14th inst. tile pri soners and others brought a truck to the house to fetch him away. In resisting the prisoners and their companions Mrs. Troup was violently assaulted. The was that the complainant's husband was a skulker, negleettug his work and his family, and that it was the custom of the trade to pull such men up. The defendants, with the exception of Ives, were held to bail. • In the Court of Exchequer an action was brought by a cab proprietor, named Colley, to recover in damages the sum of 351., for injuries to a horse and cab, occasioned by the carelessness of the defendant. It appeared that the defendant under a contract with the Commissioners of Sewers - had made an excavation at Charing-cross, opposite to Nerthumbertand House, on the 27th of October last. Next morning, at half past three, plaintiff's horse and cab approached from St. Martin's-lane, broke through the temporary barriers into the excavation, and thereby so injured the horse for further ser vice, as to render his destruction matter of necessity.. Several witnesses proved that the barriers were quite sufficient, but the jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 351. COURT-FASHIONABLE. The Marquis de Fayal (son of the Duke de Palmella) and Marchioness, accompanied by the Marquis and Marchioness de Minas, M. le Chevalier Perera, M. Sa Noguera, and an extensive suite, have arrived at Mivart's Hotel, from Lisbon, yid Southampton.

Count Joins de Noailles is now first secretary to the embassy. lIIISCELL,ILIrEOTTS. According to the annual report of Dr. Southwood Smith, of the state of the London Fever Hospital, the admissions during the last year Were 1,462, being an excess of 418 above that of any preceding year. Fever raged most violently in the central, northern, and southern districts, which was attri butable to the undrained, close, and filthy condition of these localities. The gross mortality was 14 per cent. An un precedented number of nurses and other servants of the hos pital were attacked with fever, namely, 29, of whom six died. There is a report in circulation that a large body of " the Evangelical Clergy" are about to secede from the Established Church, and to set up a distinct communion on the principles of Episcopacy. In the Record of Monday last appears the following :—" It being in contemplation to form an Episcopal church, separate from the State, with a revised Liturgy, all who are favourable to this object are earnestly requested to communicate by letter," &c.

The meeting, being purely preliminary, was a private one. About 250 persons were present. Mr. Robert Baker, the Chairman of the Essex Agricultural Protection Society, presided. At a Court of Aldermen, Mr. Alderman Wilson presented a petition from Castle Baynard Ward, praying that the neighbourhood of St. Paul's Churchyard might be relieved of the nuisance of disorderly females who congregate there. Mr. Keating (one of the petitioners) stated that on applying to Mr. Harvey, the Police Commissioner, that gentleman said it was of no use to take up the women of the town while the Magistratea discharged them without punishment. Mr. Al derman Copeland said that lie had never heard a more gra tuitous piece of impertinence than the observation of the Commissioner. The Recorder read the section of the City Police Act, to show that it was not exactly according to the Statute to take into custody and imprison unfortunate women Who walked the streets without committing any offence. The petition was then rejected. ,* HEROIC CONDUCT OF LITTLE CHILDREN. —An inquest was held on Thursday last, at the Bell Inn, East Moulsey, on the bales of Maria Watford and William Bur rell, aged respectively 12 years, who were drowned on thee previous day. Henry Burrell, aged 10 years, stated that as he, Maria Watford, and William Burrell, were running on some ice over a pond at East Moulsey, the ice gave way, and Maria Watferd fell into the deepest part of the pond (about six feet). William Burrell, who had a stick in his hand, saw her danger, and with a courage seldom witnessed in one so young, got as close as he could to the edge of the broken ice, which the child was tearing away in the vain hope to get on the surface, and had just placed the stick in her hand when the ice gave way under him, and they were both immersed in the water. Mary Watford ran across the pond to get aid from some labourers on the farm, and in doing so the iee broke away from her feet, and she, too, was „in imminent danger of losing her life. Henry Burrell, who 4,as going in another direction for the same purpose, instantly went to the place, and, at the risk of his own life, succeeded uNgetting her out of the water; and, by the kind attention afforded at the farm-house, and the medical aid which had been sent I ^ ,lre her life was saved. Some of the men of the farm went into' the water, and in about half an hour the bodies of Williams, Burrell and Maria Watford were got out. They were quite dead. The Coroner, in a most feeling manner, adverted to the brave conduct of the deceased Willia m Bartell, who, though so young, had risked and lost his own life to save a playmate.— Verdict, '"Accidentally drowned."
