MARLBOROUGH-STREET• WILFUL DAMAGE AT THE VIENNA RESTAURANT. —A NICE SERVANT.—EIIen Young, kitchen-maid at the Vienna Restaurant and beer-house, No. 16, Oxford-street, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the following outrageous conduct. Mr. Wilhelm Weiss, proprietor of the Vienna Restaurant, and through Mr. Albert, the interpreter, said that on returning home last night about 8 o'clock, having left the prisoner, who was his kitchen-maid, to take care of the house, with orders not to let any one in, he found that she had some persons in, and given them beer. Seeing that the prisoner was drunk he remonstrated with her, upon which she took up a chair and struck away at every one near her, and in doing so she smashed 18 glasses, of the value of 18s., which were on the counter. A great crowd collected round the house, and on a constable coming up to ascertain the cause he gave the prisoner into custody. That morning a large jug full of beer was found in the prisoner's room, but he (Mr. Weiss) had ascer tained that it was not with beer that the prisoner had got intoxicated, but with port wine, which she had helped hersell to. The prisoner asked Mr. Weiss whether he had not pulled her out of the kitchen by the hair. Mr. Weiss said he never touched the prisoner at all. Mr. Tyrwhitt ordered the prisoner to pay the amount of damage and a fine of 10s., for to be im prisoned for three weeks. WESTMINSTER. A BRUTE.—Robert Sussons, a stableman, was charged with brutal treatment to Mary Ann his wife, a very clean, creditable-looking woman.

Complainant said—At half-past three o'clock yesterday afternoon my husband came home to where we live, No. 2, Brewer-street, Chelsea, the worse for liquor. lie asked me for 25., which J suppose was to get more drink. I told him I had not got it to give him, which was true. He said he must have it. I replied again that I had not got it, and that he could not get blood out of a stone, upon which he immediately fell upon me and beat me severely. lie struck me five or six times on the head and taco. lie hurt me very much. lam sore all over.

The oscillations in pressure have been considerable since Saturday, but on the whole there has been a great increase : readings are now comparatively high in the S. of these islands, where there has been a very sudden rise since last evening, amounting to almost O'6in. at stations. The difference of pressure between Rochefort and Aber deen amounts to six-tenths of an inch. Temperature yesterday con tinued steady, but this morning it is a little lower. The gale noticed in our Saturday afternoon's report became very violent during the night in the Irish and English Channels, and on our S.E. coast. Th• wind lulled yesterday morning, but during last night it freshened again to a very heavyS.W. gale in the Channel. AtYarmouth the wind was south-easterly. Winds have veered generally, and are this morning moderate from the W. in these islands: in the Bay of Biscay a strong southerly wind is blowing. Rain has been general and large in amount. Cloudy weather Is prevalent. The sea has gone down. Atmospherical conditions look a little more settled than they have done for the last few days. MEIROPOLITAN RAIL TVA Y. On Thursday last the directors of the Metropo litan Railway, and the directors of the Metropo litan District Railway made an official inspection of their works now nearly completed between Ken sington and Westminster-bridge, passing along the line with an engine and carriages. A portion of this important section of the " inner circle" belongs to the Metropolitan Railway, and the remainder to the Metropolitan District Railway. The inspection was considered very satisfactory as regards the substantial character of the works and their ample provision for light and ventilation. In a very few weeks the public will have the use of this new railway in continuation of the existing Me tropolitan Railway between the city and Kensington. The public value of this section of the " inner circle" can scarcely be over estimated, and the traffic receipts from it to the Metropolitan District Railway must be very great, whilst the Metropo litan Railway will simultaneously obtain a large in crease of the existing receipts. The following observations were made by the chairman of the Metropolitan Company : Mr. PARSON—It may seem rather absurd, as most people are acquainted with the duties of the Metropolitan Railway Company, to say much on such a subject to-day. There may, however, be some who may say that there will not be much traffic from the populous district through which we have just passed, but our experience has taught us that a railway through a densely-populated district like this is a thing which must pay. If you look at the district traversed by our Western Extension it will be apparent that although there are several localities densely inhabited by third-class passengers, yet, on the whole, it is oc cupied chiefly by wealthier classes. Nevertheless we are now carrying over this Western Extension nearly 120,000 per week, or 40,000 per wile, but if any body will take the trouble to look at the traffic of the original line, they will find it did not carry 40,000 per week until a considerable time after it bad been opened. When persons therefore talk of the Metropolitan Extension " being a failure, that is an answer I think to any such ob servation." But the Western Extension is not yet completely open, and what our receipts may be, and will be, when our Thurlow square Station and this portion of the district to Westminster-bridge is open, I don't think anyone can say, but my own computation is that it will add at least £l,OOO a week to the revenue of the Metro politan Railway. (Hear, hear.) I do not think I have over estimated the traffic in putting it at that figure. My computation is made in this way —From Westminster-bridge to Thurlow-square there arc sevsn additional stations. I calculate that each station will add to the Metropolitan Rail way, not the districts, £lOO per week, and I base that upon this fact. Directly the St. John's-wood Railway was opened it produced to the Metropo litan £230 per week, and I say if the stations on St. John's-wood, the traffic from one of which is hotly competed for by the Midland Railway, and the other so near Batter-street, that it was included in the area scr ved by the Metropolitan Railway before it was opened, produced us that amount, we have a right to expect more than the £BO per station arising from the interchange with this portion of the Metropoli tan district, especially when we take into considera tion the far different position of the various stations; take Westminster-bridge for instance, what finer position can there be than that on the banks of the river, close to Lambeth and its third-class people, it will also convey a large number of the better class who are constantly in the habit of going to the law courts and other great establishments. At Westminster there is nothing on the St. John's - to compare with that ; the whole three sta tions at St. John's-wood are not, I believe, compa rable with the one at Westminster-bridge. Then we come to the station in the Broadway, that is essentially a third-class passenger station. There was a time when the venture down the Brow . - way was to render yourself liable to have your pocket picked, if not to lose your life. Then, again, going further westward, you come to the Victoria Station, a place where they start an enor mous number of trains into the suburbs and to the Crystal Palace. There is also there the Chatham and Dover. I do not know what the statistics are of the passengers from the Victoria Station who go into the country, but my belief is that the Victoria Station will give us and the Me tropolitan Railway Company an enormous traffic. Then you come to this station, and looking at this station I say it is essentially a third class dis trict on this side, while it is a better class on the other side. It was a point for starting a large number of omnibuses, and they have continually gone on increasing from the time of their starting to the present day. I might say more for the Bromp ton traffic,which is further west than this. My con viction is that the traffic upon this portion of the Metropolitan District Railway will astonish the public when they see it, and when our extension is opened to Thurloe-square, and we are enabled to interchange traffic to this line, 1 say it will add £l,OOO at least to our receipts. I think the greatest commendation ought to be paid to the contractors and officers of the District Railway, not excepting the Metropolitan proper, and I think we ought to couple with the toast the health of the deputy chairman, Mr. Sheriff. (Hear, hear.), Mr. SIIERRIFF—I am not going to make a speech. I never do. I merely say I agree with every word our worthy chairman has stated. Ido not think he has in any degree over-estimated the prospect of the Metropolitan District or the Metropolitan Railway Company, as connected with us. I have, indeed, always held the view that the Metropo litan District Railway up to Westminster-bridge is decidedly not the beat, for I hold from Westminster to the City is the more valu able but even from the westward [part, from Westminster to Brompton, I believe will realise all the expectations we have formed, and I hope we shall work in perfect unity with the Metropolitan Railway. The health of the chairman, Mr. Parson, the contractors, Messrs. Belk, Waring Brothers, and Lucas, and the general manager, Mr. Myles Fen ton, having been proposed, the meeting separated.
