Captain Strange Jocelyn, second son of the Earl of Roden, is to take place this week. tohe ? localpapers mention a considerable mor th~ nas, rt get horned cattle in Tipperary, from diiealse of THE SUN, on the adage " bear and forbear." The Duke of NEw• CASTLE, who also opposed the Bill, did so on the not very understandable ground that because the Church of .ome had been always intolerant, insolent, and ag gressive, therefore we are bound, as we had passed over some former aggressions, to submit to the present one, which is tantamount to saying, that because you do not choose to take the trouble to prosecute a fellow who has picked your pocket, you are bound not to resist him, should he attempt to cut your throat. The Noble Duke also ventilated the old fallacies on the subject of spiritual and temporal au thorities, forgetting that wheresoever spiritual authority meddles with things temporal (as it does in this in stance) its exercise is ipso facto the exercise of tem poral authority. The other speakers against the Bill were Lord MONTEAGLE, who spoke as flippantly and as verbosely, and as little to the purpose, as though he were still Mr. SPRING RICE, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the Earl of Sr. GERMANS, whose speech seemed inspired by a fear of Mr. JOHN REIN NOLDS. The CHANCELLOR spoke well and ably to the legal portion of the question, and the Earl FITZ.. WILLIAM as well and as ably to the constitutional portion of it. We congratulate the country on the prospect of the speedy passing of this most necessary measure. Towards the close of the sitting in the House _Ol Commons this morning it was proposed by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER that the Metropo litan Interments Bill should be considered in Com mittee. In consequence, however, of some objections to such a proceeding raised by the Hon. Gentleman the Member for Manchester, the question was post _ poned until the sitting of this day (Wednesday). The delay cannot be regretted, seeing that the inquiry re lates to a measure which can never by any possibi- lity work to the satisfaction of the multitude. Be sides which it will have to be decided whether or not a sum of 130,0001. shall be appropriated to the carrying out of this most inadequate project of her MA JESTY'S Government. From the first moment the matter referred to was brought under the• considera tion of the Imperial Legislature, we protested against the scheme chalked out by the Cabinet as one by no mean calculated to remove the i difficulties presenting themselves in this particular direction to the sanitary reformer. Clause by clause the Bill already specified was passsed by us under review, and we in no single instance shrank from indicating what appeared to us to be the principal objec tions to the proposed enterprise. A reconsideration of tJose objections has only tended more and more to convince us of their reasonableness. We perceive in the measure too many and too glaring indications of a disposition, on the part of our administrators, to truckle to the clerical party to admit, in our think ing, of any probable advantages being derived from the suggested innovations. Hitherto it would seen to have been imagined that the ministers of the Christian religion should be induced, by every ima ginable contrivance, to exult in the calamities of the laity, by causing them to flourish in proportion to the annual mortality. The burial fees have all along appeared to us to be pro vocative of this ghastly exultation. Hence they have always appeared to us detestable. If we would act in this matter in accordance with the dictates of our divine faith, we ought most assuredly to destroy a system which gives the clergy a direct interest in the deaths of their congregation. Such, however, do not appear to be the feelings with which the subject is regarded by her MAJESTY'S Government. On the contrary, it would seem as though the Cabi net were solicitous by every means not merely to perpetuate the abominable system alluded to, but to connect together yet more intimately interests which, long since, should have been altogether separated. Already a considerable interval has elapsed since the passing of the original measure relating to me tropolitan interments. In speaking therefore of its insufficiency we are speaking not from mere conjec ture, but from actual experience. What benefit, we ask, has yet resulted to the community from this magnanimous and magnificent interference on the part of the Government? Have the grave yards of the capital been closed in conse quence ? Has there been any cessation of that hideous practice of desecrating the sanctu aries of dissolution, the first disclosure of which, by Mr. WALKER, can never be sufficiently commended Are there no longer witnessed in the burial-grounds of London and Westminster those scenes of brutality where the sextons are made to enact the part of ghouls, tearing to pieces the half decayed bodies of the departed, breaking up their coffins, and huddling together wood, flesh, and fragments of skeletons, to be carried elsewhere, in order to make room for addi tional interments, so that more burial fees may be pocketed ? Repeated paragraphs in our own columns, recounting such detestable acts as these, will have enabled the more observant among our readers to aver that nowhere can be perceived the evidence of the benefits declared to be the inevitable consequences of this interference of her MAJESTY'S Government. The graveyards of the metropolis are still employed for purposes of sepulture. The remains of the dead are still disturbed in the manner above indicated. The fees arising out of these interments are still drop ping coin by coin into the purses of the clerical evaders of the law. And all these things are attribut able to the circumstance of that discretionary power which was left with the ministers of religion by the enactment, a power which from the very outset we insisted would prove detrimental to the interests of the population. Aware, as they must perforce be by this time, of the total failure of the Metropolitan Interments Bill as a means of carrying out sanitary improvements, it is earnestly to be hoped that the supporters of that cause will bestir themselves at length in order to dissipate those evils which have hitherto been tolerated by the members of her MAJEsTv's Government. An admirable opportunity presents itself at the present moment for bringing about a wholesome change in the law, such as must satisfy even the most fastidious and exacting. It rests with the sanitary reformers in the House of Commons to decide whether 130,0001. shall be granted for the purpose of enforcing a Bill, which, when enforced, can effect no reasonable improvement, or whether another and a very different measure shall be introduced, prohibiting henceforth within the precincts of the metropolis all interments whatsoever. If we would effectually cleanse the atmosphere of the capital from the contamination to which it is now subjected by our unwholesome system of intramural burials, we must extort from the Legislature some such resolute and inexorable prohibition. Otherwise it will be vain attempting to build up by a less strin gent course of proceeding a regular system of extra mural cemeteries. Force must be employed in the desired direction, now that persuasion has proved so vain as a means of bringing about the required im provement. We look, therefore, earnestly and anxiously to the present deliberations of the Le gislature. DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGRATION ON THE MARQUI S OF WESTMINSTER'S ESTATE.—Last night, about a quarter past eleven o'clock, a fire of a very fierce and alarming character broke out in one of the newly-erected houses be longing to Mr. Hutchinson, the builder in Morton-place, Pimlico. An immediate supply of water was procured, but before the flames could be assuaged the premises in whi c h they began were totally gutted, the only portions left being the outer brick walls. The origin of the fire is not precisely known, but the prevailing opinion of the inhabitants was that it was the work of some vile incendiary. Owing to the great confusion which prevailed, it was impossible to learn whether the sufferer was insured or not. Mr. Russell, super intendent of the B division, with a strong body of police, rendered essential service to the firemen by keeping a vast crowd out of danger. ME LATE MR. ROGERS, Q.C.—By the demise of this gentleman, the office of Recorder of Exeter and De puty Judge Advocate General become vacant. Mr. Rogers was called to the bar in 1816, and had a high repute as author of works on the law of elections, and other legal subjects. _ Lord Stanley left town yesterday morning for India, where his Lordship will remain until the approach of the next session of Parliament. The Earl of Derby still re mains confined to his room by a severe attack of gout. Two failures were announced at Liverpool yester day afternoon, the parties being Mr. G. Wright, j un., and Messrs. T. and W. Stock. Ihe liabilities of Mr. Wright are supposed to amount to 60,0001., and those of Messrs. Stock to about 35,0001. The suspension in each case is understood to have been caused by the fall in cotton. TESTIMONIAL TO ALDERMAN THOMPSON:On Friday last about fifty gentlemen, connected with the ward of Cheap, dined together at the Plough Tavern, Blackwall, on which occasion an elegant piece of plate was presented to Thompson, as a testimony of the estimation in was held. Th e Ald erman , i n a speec h o f muc h w A h ld ic e h rm h a e n feeling, acknowledged the compliment paid him, and ex pressed the satisfaction he felt at having been adjudged by his fellow-citizens to have performed his duty.

In the House of Lords, last night, the adjourned debate on the second reading of the Ecclesiastical Title As sumption Bill was resumed by The Earl of WINCHILSEA, who expressed his inten tion to abstain from voting on the question because, in his opinion, the Bill did not go far enough. All these aggressions had been occasioned by the measure of 1829. Load LYNDHURST had 110 doubt that the assumption of these titles was as illegal as it was insulting. He should vote for the second reading of the Bill. Lord VAUX and the Earl of WICKLOW opposed the i Bill. The Duke of NEWCASTLE contended that no aggres • sion had taken place, neither had there been any en croachment on the Royal prerogative. lie should vote against the Bill. The Marquis of CLINRICARDE supported and Lord MONTEAGLE opposed the measure. The LORD CHANCELL OR said that it would be impos sible to pass over this insolent assunlption of the POPE in silence, and as a mere resolution would not meet the requirements of the case, the only course left to pursue was to pass som e such Bill as the present. The Earl of ST. GERMANS opposed the Bill, which NT(); Earl EITZWIL• and Marquisth the E a o r f l of L A ll N A sD n o n w w N ic E xE re . T was su pported by the Earl of __Mi plied. The House LIAt divided: the numbers were— For the second reading— Present Proxies 146 119 -265 For the amendment— Present ... Proxies ... - 38 Majority for the second reading 227 The Commons were occupied during the early sitting in the consideration of the treatment to which Mr. Ea NEST JONES had been subjected during his imprisonment in Tothill , fields Prison. The case was brought foward by Lord D. STUART, who in moving for papers stated that he should next session move for a Committee of Inquiry into the case. Mr. W. WILLIAms said that the fault was in the law, which left the visiting magistrates no option. Ulti mately the motion was withdrawn on the understanding that such papers as could be furnished should be granted. In the evening sitting, Lord J. RUSSELL brought forward the motion of which he had given notice, to the effect " that DAVID SALomorts, Esq., is not entitled to vote in this House, or to sit in this louse during any debate, until he shall take the oath of abjuration in the form appointed by law." Mr. ANSTEY moved, by way of amendment, " That DAvm SALOMONS, Esq., Member for the borough of Greenwich, having sat and voted in this House without haven taken the abjuration oath in the words contained and set forth in the form tendered unto him at the table, the Attorney-General of England be ordered to institute proceedings against him at law for such default, pur suant to the;Act 6th Geo. 111., c. 53." Sir B. HALL hoped the Hon. Member for Youghal would withdraw his amendment, in order to allow an other to be proposed. Mr. ANSTEY then withdrew his amendment, and Mr. BETHELL moved another amendment, to the effect " That Baron LIONEL DE ROTHSCHILD and DAVID SALostotts, Esq., having taken the oaths in the manner in which the House was by law bound to administer them, they were entitled to take their seats in the House." The ATTORNEY-GENERAL contended that the words " on the true faith of a Christian" were part, not of the form, but of the substance of the oath. Mr. J. Evizis contended that the words were merely formal. ----- Mr. NAPIER supported the original motion, and Mr. AamoNay the amendment. _ Mr. H. DRUMMOND said the oath was intended to operate against Jacobites and not against Jews. Mr. ANSTEY supported the amendment. Sir R. INGus contended that, even admitting that the words in question were introduced into the oath by acci dent, there never was a time in which the oaths were not administered upon some symbol that would exclude members of the Jewish persuasion. Upon a division, the amendment was negatived by 118 against 71. Mr. BRIGHT suggested the appointment of a Commit tee to consider the question. Lord J. Russicm. replied that such a Committee had been appointed last year, and had reported. Sir B. HALL asked for delay, to give the constituency of Greenwich an opportunity of petitioning. Mr. G. Tnomrson supported the appointment of a Committee. Mr. ANSTEY moved the adjournment of the debate. A division negatived the motion for adjournment by 190 to €9. Mr. G. THOMPSON moved another amendmen pledging the House forthwith to cause such alterations to be made in the form and mode of administering the oath as should enable Mr. SALOIIONS to take and sub scribe the same. _ _ A long and acrimonius discussion ensued, in the course of which Lord JOHN RussELL pledged himself to re introduce the Jewish Relief Bill next session. The motion for adjournment was negatived, on a di, vision, by 207 against 59. It being now nearly one o'clock, Lord J. RUSSELL, adverting to the character which the debate had assumed, said he would no longer oppose an adjournment of the debate, which was accordingly adjourned until Friday. The remaining business having been disposed of, the House adjourned at a Quarter to Two o'clock. The result of the division last evening in the louse of Peers, on the motion for the second reading of the Ecclesiastical Titles Assumption Bill, ought to prove to the Court of Rome how gross has been the decep tion practised on the Porn and his Ministers by those who, to forward their own ambitious schemes of personal aggrandizement, represented that the aristocracy of England were favourably disposed towards the Romish Church, and on the faith of that representation induced the POPE to issue the arrogant rescript which has excited the just indignation of the whole of the Protestant, and we add of the majority of the lay Roman Catholic, population of these realms. Out of the whole of the aristocracy of England assembled in the House of Lords to dis cuss a measure, having for its object to repel the aggression which by interested misrepresentations the POPE was induced to commit, only 38 could be found who refused to concur in that measure, whilst no less than 265 recorded their votes in favour of the Bill, which emphatically declares that the Porn shall exercise no temporal authority within these realms. The Court of Rome must nowobe convinced that the aristocracy of England does not take its tone either from the sentimental "fine ladies,".who, blasee by a perpetual round of dissipation, seek to keep up the pleasing excitement of the Saturday 1 night's opera by the clerical histrionics of the Sunday morning's service, or from the weak-minded but am bitious among the clergy, who, conscious of their utter deficiency in all the qualities which deserve the respect of their fellow men, endeavour by their arro gant pretensions to secure from their station that deference which would never be accorded to them for their merits. The true aristocracy of England despises both these classes, and are not more inclined than their fellow-countrymen to humour the caprices of painted butterflies, or to permit themselves to be tyrannized over, or their substance plundered by :the intoning drones of the social hive. The aristocracy of England, the descendants and representatives of those stalwart barons who enacted the Constitutions of Claren don under HExat 11., who forced Magna Charts from JOHN, who passed the Statute of Prmeaunire under RICHARD 11., and who by their memorable resolution, Nolumus leges Anglia mutari, resi sted, and successfully resisted, the attempts of a former POPE to introduce the canon law into these realms, proved that they, too, like their ancestors, were determined never to submit to the degrading tyranny of a sacer.. dotal despotism, and by a ma j o rity o f 227 gave a se cond reading to the Bill, one o f t h e pr i nc i pa l e ff ec t s of which will be to prevent the introduction of tile canon law into this c ountry. The debate, which was co mmenced by a somewhat ram bli ng speec h from the Earl of Vi rnicEi mseA , was conducted, on the whole, in a manner which did honour to their Lordships' House. The speech of the night was that of Lord LYNDHURST ; never have we heard a more clear and convincing legal argument than that by which he proved that the sees pretended to be erected by this Bill were even now o nly pretended and il legal sees, and seldom bas there been a display of eloquence more tasteful than the concluding ' passages of his speech. LYNDHURST was " himself again," the LYNDHURST of ten years since. The Earl of WICKLOW, who followed, must be a nobleman of very obtuse perception ; he could not for the lif e o f him perceive should lidn like had been intend e d or offered by exceedingly to hear the Noble Earls definition of an insult, he evidently places a very liberal construction _ LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 23, 1851. ,RKETS THE SH BRITXSU 31.51ZVTATII.

To-day's market was very scantily supplied with English Wheat, coastwise, as well as by land-carriage. Although the attendance of buyers was limited, a good clearance of the stands was effected at prices fully equal to those of Monday last. The imports of foreign Wheat have not exceeded 5,020 quarters. Fine dry parcels were taken somewhat freely, at full rates of currency. In the middling and inferior kinds, comparatively little was doing, at late currencies. We had a very small supply of Barley on show, yet it was quite equal to the wants of the buyers. No change took place in the value of Malt, the supply of which was limited. We had a fair sale for Oats, at, in some instances, a alight advance in the quotations. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour were unaltered in value. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Oats. Flour. English ...... Irish ........ Qrs.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool, yesterday, were es• timated at 4,000 bales, of which 500 American, 300 Per. nam and Maranham, and 300 Surat were taken for ex. port. The sales comprised 3,000 American, 400 Pernam and Maranham at kid. to 7d., and 800 Surat at 30. to aid. per lb. The market was flat and prices very irre gular, and all kinds were about id. per lb. lower.—Rail way Shares were very heavy. The accounts from Chili give interesting particulars of the financial position of that country. They state: — "The shipments of silver, and dollars generally arrive here from the coast on the 20th of every month by steamer, and from that date up to the 25th, as soon as the exchange is fixed, the remittances for Europe are purchased; and it often occurs that neither silver nor hard dollars are obtainable the second day after the arrival of the steamer, and just as frequently that drafts on London cannot be procured to the amount required. If, there fore, at such a period the Government should come into the market for so large an amount, they would ne cessarily have to postpone their remittances for another month, or contract the same at very unfavourable ex change. The internal Three per Cent. Debt, at present in circulation, amounts to 1,455,800 dolls., with a sink- ing fund of half per cent. on the original capital o 1,745,950 dolls. „ ” The new loan of 500,000 dollars, applied for by Go vernment, for the erection of custom-house stores, will be contractedi for in Chili, as well as the required sum for the construction of a railway to Santiago, if Government should sanction the undertaking. The Chilinos have no objection to act in concert with strangers living in their country, but are reluctant to enter into speculations of which foreign nations share the profits, and, in conse quence, have a vote in the undertaking, and would much rather exert themselves to raise the capital than apply for it elsewhere. "The election for President would take place on the 25th June, and the new President is installed in office on the 18th September, the anniversary of the declaration of independence." In reply to the letters of the Venezuelan Minister of Finance, Mr. Lord, the agent of the bondholders at Ceram's, very ably gave a full statement of the whole case. He called to mind the misappropriation of the moneys that should have bean paid to the bond holders, and does not think the political convul sions justify it. As to the proposal of the Minister to pay on account the 12,5001. in the Bank of England, so as to liquidate the interest due from April 1 to, June 30, Mr. Lord very wisely points out that such an arrangement would be fatal to the agreement en tered into in 1840, and cannot, therefore, be enter tained. A much better course, he contends, would be to provide at once for the October dividends, and settle the question of arrears afterwards, the proposal to capitalize the coupons being considered tangible. We think that all parties will concur at least in the view that Mr. Lord, by his indefatigable conduct, has well earned their approbation, and at a future time will be entitled to substantial reward. z. d.

The consequence is that yesterday (Tues day) the third-class fares from Leeds to London and back were only 4s. 6d. by the Great Northern, and ss. by the Midland, with a prospect of a still further reduction, each company having announced its determination to be 6d lower than its competitor. • HOSPITALITY HINDERED.—It is said that Mr. Hope has purchased, for 10,000 guineas, the splendid malachite door shown in the Russian department of the Great Exhibi tion. Should this be the case, it may prove a check to the gentleman's usual hospitality, for when a friend comes to dine with him, he will most probably show him the door. A requisition, very numerously signed by the electors of Harwich, has been presented to Mr. Crawford, asking him to come forward again as a candidate for that borough. RAILWAY FROM ALEXANDRIA TO CAIRO.—We are informed that the preliminaries for this important under taking have been so far settled between Nubar Bey, on the part of his Highness the Pacha, and Mr. Robert S te p henson, the engineer, that arrangements ' are now in progress for commencing it forthwith. It was reported yesterday at the Clubs that the vacant regiment would, in all probability, be conferred upon Major-General Lord Frederick Fitzclarence., ° s eal., th e mom Lieutenant-Queraoc Qf rortoinuth. A letter from M. Payno to the Chairman and De puty-Chairman (Baron Goldsmid and Mr. Capel) of the Mexican Bondholders' Committee has been shown on the Stock Exchange, in which very full explanations are given concerning the value of the indemnity assignment, the course hitherto; taken and open in the present instance for its negotiation, the firm resolution of the Mexican Government to carry out the agreement in its integrity, and the impression that the next packet will bring 200,000 dollars for the dividends to compensate for the smallness of the last remittance, about which the Committee complain, and which M. Payne asserts is purely accidental, and not the result of di minished receipts or misappropriation. How ever, the Committee did quite right to urge this matter upon M. Payno's attention, that he may let his Government know the absolute ne cessity for increased vigilance and punctuality. The last accounts received by way of New York from Mexico are considered decidedly more encouraging, and the Cortes were bent on improving the resources of the Go vernment, amending the customs duties, &c. The rates at which Bills of Exchange were yesterday negotiated on the principal continental cities were a shade lower on France and Belgium, but firm on the other places. The dealings in ninety days bills were at 25 20 to 22* on Paris, and 25 20 to 22* on Antwerp. On Amsterdam 11 172 to 18, Ramburgh 13 7* to 8, Frankfort 119 to I, and Trieste 11 43 to 52. The English Stock Market has been firm again, and the transactions for money are the feature, scarcely any speculation being in progress. Consols have been 96i t for Transfer, and 962 j for Account. The New Three and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been quoted 98i to and the Three per Cents. 96/ to *. Bank Stock is sup ported at the high value of 215/ to 216. East India Stock has been at 263. Exchequer-bills are lower, as parties are selling out to buy Stock. The premium has been 495, to 525. Foreign Securities have been very inactive. Spanish Three per Cents. have realised 38*, and Mexican are nominally 30i to -a, with a better feeling. Brazilian Old Bonds are 90*; French Five per Cents. have been 94, with the exchange at 25. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been 59i 2, and Danish Five per Cents. 1032 to 104*. The Railway Share Market has not been so active, nor have the extreme prices of yesterday in all cases been obtained. Some of the leading brokers are ad vising their clients to buy for money, but the latter have not yet done so to any extent, or the reaction would be immediate and considerable in the really sound dividend paying shares. ZIOROUGH HOP MARKET. Although plantation accounts are very unfavourable, the demand is by no means active, at about stationary prices. Duty 75,0001. to 90,0001. _ . iATECITECHAPEL. The general demand isheavy, as follows :—Beef, from 2s 2d to 3s 4d ; Mutton, 2s 6d to 3s 8d ; Lamb, 35 8d to 45 8d ; Veal, 2s 8d to 3s 6d; Pork, 3s to 3s 8d per 8 lbs, by the carcase. SECONDARIES'.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.) There was only one case tried, on a petition brought on a promissory note for a small amount. There was no defence to the action, and the only point of interest in the case was the form in which the note was drawn. • The Learned SECONDARY said that the note was made payable to the plaintiff or bearer. The Plaintiff's SOLICITOR said that the payees re sided in Scotland, and that was the usual form accord ing to the Scottish law. The Learned SECONDARY-A question might have arisen as to who was entitled to sue. Plaintiff's SOLICITOR said that although defendant had put a plea on the record that ho did not make the note, and was not indebted, yet he did not appear to sustain the plea; any right of objection was therefore waived. The Learned SECONDARY said that there was no doubt the note was legal, but it was unusual to make a note payable to so and so or bearer. There was also another point—that the amount, 9/. 145., was to be pay able at 16s. per month, with 2i per cent. per month in terest, and in default of payment of any instalment the whole of the amount then due should be recoverable. The Learned Secondary directed a verdict for the plaintiff. In consequence of the frequent absence of jurymen, and the difficulty in forming a jury today, Mr. Hudson, the clerk sitter of the court, gave notice that the Secon dary will fine any absentees on the next court day. BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.) W. Smith, errand boy in the service of Messrs. Wickham and Yelland, of 162, Strand, booksellers, was brought up on remand before Mr. Henry, charged with stealing several letters containing money and Post-office orders, and also a great number of books, the property of his employers. In the evidence, it was shown that the prisoner, who was an unfriended youth, was taken into the employment of Messrs. Wickham and Co. about sixteen months ago, as messenger or porter at wages of fifteen shillings a-week. Mr. Wick ham, having lately missed a great number of letters contain ing money, entertained a suspicion that the prisoner, who otherwise maintained an excellent character, and was very well conducted, intercepted the letters. On Thursday, the 14th inst., Mr. Wickham expected re mittances of money from (amongst. others) a gen tleman of the name of Parker, residing in Exeter; but the expected letters did not come to hand. It was proved that the prisoner on that morning received the delivery, and actually handed to the counting-house a portion of the letters. The next day, Mr. Wickham went to the lodgings of the prisoner, accompanied by Sergeant Thompson, the principal detective officer of the F division, who asked the prisoner to go with him, which he did. Thompson seeing some clothes of the prisoners thrown loosely on the bed, first applied himself to an examination of them, and on lifting up two coats, he observed under them two letters in envelope. He found that the seals of the envelopes had been broken open, but neither the letters enclosed, nor the Post-office orders which were contained within them, had been abstracted. One of these letters was from Mr. Parker, of Exeter, and contained a Post•office order for W. 12s. Id., the balance of an account, but, by the activity of the Post-office constable Peak, two letters, which had inclosed each a 5/. note, were distinctly traced to his hands, and it was proved that they never reached Messrs. Wickham or their counting-house. It was also found that he had lodged 41. in the savings bank of St. Clement Danes. In his room were found upwards of ninety volumes, taken from the library of his employer, and bearing their mark. The prisoner denied that he had taken the letters with a felonious intent. He had put them in his coat-pocket, and a bunch of keys, which he carried with them, broke the seals. Finding this he was frightened, and did not know what to de. He knew nothing of the other letters; and as to the books, he had bought them of a person in the shop. The person so referred to gave the charge a distinct de nial, and the prisoner was fully committed for trial.

METROPOLITAN WATER SUPPLY COMMITTEE.— Yesterday long drawn out evidence was taken on the water trade of Edinburgh, Dunfermline, and Dundee, with the view of showing the well working of the water system in the hands of private companies. A diverting point during th e day, as illustrating the scarcity of the aqua pura at one period in Dundee, was the declaration of a witness that, " when they could not get water , t he y shaved themselves in small beer."—(L au ghter.) Mr. Williams, one of the mem bers of the local Board of Health at Worcester, spoke to the insufficiency and inferiority of the water supplied to that town, and which was under the administration of the mu nicipality. Mr. Phinn, one of the counsel for the Govern ment Bill, lodged a complaint with the Committee to the effect that the only companies which had complied with the requisition of the Committee calling for a statistical re turn of their working for three years were, the East London, the Grand Junction, the Southwark and Vauxhall, and the Kent Water Companies.
