Wen by half a lenvin. 1) biNi MARK, The Kolner Zeitung states from Copenhagen, of the llrh inst., that the Ministers, W. Moltke, K. Moltke, and Reed z have resigned, and that the King has ac cepted their resignation. The Cabinet is conoquently dissolved and anothr crisis has began. Tne most contradictory rumours are afloat respecting the for mation of mother Cabinet, but it appears certain that either M.nisch or Count Sponnek will receive the King's commands for that purpose. ITALY. At the last Secret Consistory held by the Pope an oPiv'ion was expressed that the very fatal errors of SOr-iiiim and Communism have been fomented in a great measu e by the laws enacted by various States on the subject of ecclesiastical property. The Corriere-Mercantile of Genoa of the 11th replies to this assertion by saying, that the first C ommunists were the doctors of the Catholic Church who wrote agaiufat receiving interest for the loan o f money, and the founders of monastic institutions who preached the doctrine of producing little and consuming less, ber•ause they regarded the possession of property as a or ime. _ROYAL POLYTECHNIC 1 VSTITUTION. At no'period have the varied lectures been more attractive or instructive, and the crowded audiences duriiig the season prove how deservedly popular this admirable institution is viewed by the public, and the successive visitors appear, from week to week, ad vancing in the intelligence and interest with which they attend them. Viis, of course, must in some measure be ac .ou'oted for by the acknowledged improvement of the -folic discernment in the appreciation of the more 'fined taste of intellizonce in the advancement of ...ience and manufacture. Tne popular style of lecturing, so well known to our readers, and so admirably carried out by the profes sors of the. establishment, is deserving of the highest eulogium we can pronounce, the discourses being given by Dr. B ichhoffner and Mr. J. H. Pepper in so distinct and simple a style that the most abstruse science is rendered clear and intelligible to the meanest capacity. The principal subject of Dr. BAchhoffner's pre sent series of lectures on the deposits of the Great Exhibition, are the electro-metallic deposits, illus trated by numerous beautiful experiments on the art of electro-plating, while his coadjutor is engaged in describing the application of steel and iron in the manufactures of the United Kingdom. In addition to the above, we may mention the vast improvements lately discovered by Mr. Beard, jun , in the beautiful art of photography, which has b-en brought to such a degree of perfection, as to be equal to a fine enamel; so completely is the colour hard, ned and preserved by the new preparation, that it will bear the effect of the atmosphere with Jut a gliss ; and even rubbing will at£ec ;,ha appe-rance of ttie pic,ure, which, until lately would wholly destroy a thguerieotype im pression.

This extraordinary case excitf s greater interest daily, both in Bath and Bristol. Or, Monday A. H. English, Esq., curor,er for Bath, with n jury com posed of highly respectable tradesmen, commenced his inquest upon the body of the child who, as stated in Monday's Sun, oif , d on Si' urd4y list, at the Ses sions Court or the Guildhall, but as a post mortem examination sod analysis of the contents of the stomach were necessary, the jury, after viewing the both-, considered that it was not desirable to enter further upon the case until the medical evidence was ready, and the inquiry was therefore adjourned until Wednesday morning. The inquest was resumed at nine o'cl:ick on Wedne-day morning. The prisoner being in the Pqz,•edy of the in7giNtrites wa. not present, but Mr. Crosby was in attendant,... and took notes of the evi dence. , W.

'7)%.•,, THE MURDER AT DAVENTRY. NORT H A MPTON, .r E, , DAY :VI elderly woman, named PiLlthard, wife of a small farmer 4.t Tnrupp Grounds, near Doi: Buy, h:;s b-en commitl - ed for trial at the next assizes on Cle chsrge of murdering : er moth r-in-law, under circumstances of the most atro cious character , inched, a more cold-tlooded, deli berate act of murder has not come before the public for some time, the apparent motive for perpetrating the deed being the obtainment of a legacy of 1,0004 upon the interest of which the deceased and her aged husband were partly maintained. The facts, as elicited before Mr. Hicks, the district coroner, after two day s ' searc hi ng in vestigation, furnish the following details of the horrible affair :—The unfortunate victim, whose name was Elizabeth Pinkhard, was upwards of 60 years of age, and, as before stated, was the mother-in-law of the accused, lived with her husband in a lonely cottage, on the Long Buckley-road, about a mile from Daventry. They resided alone in the cottage, and with the interest of the legacy, and some slight trading which the old man did at the local markets, they maintained themselves in a very re spectable way. They lived most happily together. The deceased had excellent health, and, although ad vanced in life, was unusually active in her habits. The accused is a woman of rather masculine deport ment, and is also up in years—being nearly 50. Iler husband, John Mutton Pinkhard, held a small farm near Daventry, and being the only issue of the de ceased's marriage, would come into possession of the legacy at her death. It bad been left her by an uncle after whom the husband of the prisoner bad been named, and who had devised that it should be distri buted amongst her children at her death. Pinkhard, jun., being the only child, therefore the whole amount would fall to him. On the morning of Friday, the 31 instant, between nine and ten o'clock, old Air. Pinkhard, the husband of the deceased, left home for the purpose of going to Daventry well-known cattle and cheese fair, taking with him a horse for sale. The deceased when he quitted was in her usual good state of health, and there was nothing like depression of spirits about her. Indeed, it was observed that she was more cheerful than otherwise. They had no words together, and nothing transpired that would tend to excite her, and induce her to commit suicide. Whether by any previous' arrangement or not we are unable to say, but the son accompanied the father to the fair, and continued with hint the whole day and up to the period of learning of the death of his parent. Late in the afternoon of the same day a man named Bird happened to pass the cottage with a horse which he was driving to a neighbouring meadow, and seeing the door open he thought of going in and seeing how the old lady was, with whom he was acquainted. On entering, his astonishment may be imagined on finding the unfortunate creature in a sitting posture on the fluor, in one c o r ne r o f th e f ront parlour, with a piece of something like tape secured round her neck, the end of which had been fastened to a hock iu the wall. She appeared to be quite dead. Bird immediat e ly call e d i n th e a id o f severa l neighbours, and it would seem that the first glance at the deceased led them to believe that she had com muted self-destruction. A subsequent and more minute examination was made. the piece of tape which was found rotted the neck was not more than a yard and a half in length, and of the description usually used for apron strings ; and although its somewhat slight texture, and the peculiar manner in which it had been attached to the hook, excited some suspicion, yet it was imagined that she could have effected her strangulation by placing herself in the position in which she was dis covered. The old man at length returned home, and expressed his decided opinion that his wife had not committed the act herself, but that she had been mur dered. Hs searched over the house, but could not find that anything had been carried away. Some spots or smears of blood on the floor, and other walks on the wall, prompted more inquiries, and the body was subjected to a close examination by Mr. Sharman, surgeon, Mr. Marsh, of North ampton, and Dr. Watts, of Daventry. They per ceived marks of violence, as if from blows, on the arms and thighs, and other appearances indicated that she had been engaged in a severe struggle just before death. There were also signs of blows on the forehead, and the lacerated appearance of the throat, caused by the tight manner in which the tape had been drawn, showed the force that had been used, and which it appears could not have been produced in the position she was discovered. The in ference was that she had been first strangled on the floor, and then hung up to the hook in the wall, in order to favour the impression that she had committed self-destruction. Medical testimony was adduced to show that it was impossible for the deceased to have done the act herself. A variety of circumstances tended to fix consider able suspicion upon the wite of the son, and eventu ally she was arrested by the police on the charge of being concerned in the murder of the old lady. Two labourers who were working on the road near the cottage spoke of seeing a woman coming from the Buckley line of road, and entering the deceased's place. That was about a quarter past ten in the morn ing. They heard some loud talking in the house, and the woman lett shortly after eleven, after walking up and down the road to see whether she was being watched. A labourer of the name of Hadland, employed at the youbger Pinkhard's farm at Thrupps-ground de posed to his mistress leavivg home just before ten on the morning in question, and proceeding in the direc tion of Daventry and the deceased's cottage. He saw her return in the same direction about a quarter to twelve o'clock, and he noticed that her gown was torn out at the gathers. She remarked that she had done it while gathering blackberries. Hadland was in the way when a labourer named Letts came and informed her that her mother-in-law was dead, and bad been found hanging. She appeared much alarmed, and nearly fainted, and observed, " God bless you, my dear ; don't you leave me this night." It also seemed that the female servant went out just bore ten to ge , t some bread, at the accused's direc tion, and when she returned the girl also noticed her mistress's dress torn. Oa the violent character of the death of the deceased being evident, Mr. Shar man waited upon the prisoner, and expressed his be lief that her mother-in-law had been murdered. Sbe replied that she was quite satisfied that that was so. He inquired of her whether she had any suspician of any one. Sbe answered that she had no reason to suspect any one, as the deceased was a quiet peaceable woman. There were many other circumstances elicited in respect of the move ments cf the prisoner on the morning the murder was committed ; and Reynolds, a police officer, spoke positively of seeing her just inside of the door of the deceased's cottage about twenty minutes past eleven o'clock on the Friday morning. It transpired that Pinkhard the younger was considerably in arrear with his rent, and that since the arrest of his wife an execution had been placed on the farm. This perhaps may furnish a reason for procuring the value of the legacy. The coroner's jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against Elizabeth Pinkhard, and, as before stated, the wretched woman was duly com mitted on the coroner's warrant for trial at the spring assizes. She is considerably older than her husband. ton, diocese of Lichfield, Gothic, of the 14• h century, to accommodate 669 persons, estimate 4 7241.; and St. Luke, Wolverhanipton, diocese of Lichfield, early Eng lish, of thF 13 h cizniury, to ace , mmori.Ate 800 persons, at an estimated cost of 3,00 C/.

The bankrupts were described a 3 Henry Mowbray Arliss and Elijah Tucker, of 15, Frith street, Suho, printers. This was a certificate meeting. The balance-sheet showed the following items : Creditors, 1,1071.; bill of sale, 2181. Liabilities, viz. —on joint acceptances given on separate debts of H. M. Arliss, 438/. ; profits, 847/. ; liquidation of estate of H. M.

Mr. Nicholson appeared for the assignees, Mr. Lowrance for the bankrupts. Mr. LAWRANCE said, the bankrupts had offered 203. i❑ the pound, but one creditor stood out, and then the bankrupts petitioned for this adjudication, with the consent of their creditors. The COMMISSIONER asked how they could have paid 20s. in the pound ? Mr. LAWRANCE said, it was a business that de pended upon personal exertions, and as the debts were only 1,1001. the bankrupts had hoped to get round, and that was the opinion of many of the creditors. They were here now rather than give any creditor a preference. Mr. NICHOLSON did not offer any opposition. His HoNouß granted an immediate certificate of the second class. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Charles Martin and Thomas Blowes. two cabmen who were committed from this court on Saturday last, for fourteen days, for attempting to steal a gold watch from the person of Mr. Chyles Watson, of 59, London-wall, were again brought up in the custody of Springate, the gaoler, and placel at the bar, before Alderman Sir Robert Walter Carden. The case was substantially reheard, and, after a very long inquiry, Sir R. W. CARDEN said, with regard to the men at the bar, I see nothing at all against the character of either of them. I only regret that they have been placed there innocently. lam quite sure that they will acquit me of all blame in committing them, for Mr. Watson's bearing was such, and his evidence was given in such an apparently straightforward manner, that I was bound to convict. I am now induced to alter my former opinion. I shall take immediate steps to procure the liberation of those two innocent men, and in the meantime I will consider what fur tber proceedings ought to be taken with regard to Mr. Watson. c ,--z i ir , ~.. j--‘-t ';) A,,. _ - ~.,.

Yesterday William Burgess, a young man respect ably connected, was placed at the bar before Mr. Ar nold, charged with receiving a large quantity of tim•- ber from Mr, Druce, coal and timber merchant, Queen's-road, Westminster, under the representation that it 'was obtained for his father. Joseph Hyde, foreman to the prosecutor, said that in the early part of the spring of this year the father of the prisoner was supplied with a quantity of coals. On the 4th of April last the prisoner applied in the name of his father to have a lot of timber sent to him. Witness took the prisoner into the office where he saw Mr. Druce, who allowed him to open the account for the timber. Mr. ARNOLD—What quantity of timber was sup plied to him ? Witness—He had various loads from time to time. Mr. ARNOLD—Was he supplied on the faith and belief all the time that the goods were for his father ? Witness—He was, Sir; he has received goods to the amount of 521. 12s. Mr. ARNOLD—Were any of the goods sent to his father ? Witness—No, your Worship. The agent to the prosecutor said that on Tuesday application was made to the prisoner's father for some money, when it was found that he had not given any orders. Mr. Herbert S. P. Burgess, the prisoner's father, No. 1, Sloane-square, stated that he was formerly a coachmaker, but had retired from business. He never authorised his son to get goods from Mr. Druce. Mr. ARNOLD—Was ever any application made to you for money ? Witness—Never, Sir. I never had the least idea that my sen was obtaining goods from Mr. Druce. On Tuesday night I first heard of the case. Mr. ARNOLD—Has the prisoner been applied to for money since it was ascertained that the father had given no order ?—The agent replied that he had not. The prisoner was remanded. THAMES. George Newsome, a tall man, a labourer, aged 26, of No. 10, Kirk's-row, Rhodeswell-road, Limehouse, was brought before Air. Yardley, charged with as saulting police-constable Abbott, 118 K, in the execu tion of his duty. The priioner appeared to have bled profusely from a wound on the top of his head, and his hair was matted with blood. The policeman stated, that between the hours of 12 and 1 o'clock that morning be saw the prisoner seated on the steps of a door in Kirk's-row, and, finding he was fast asleep, he aroused him, and told him to get up. The prisoner had no sooner done so than he used vituperative language, and knocked him down with his fist. He got up again and grappled with the prisoner, who struck him several times, and, in a struggle which took place, tore his (the policrman's) coat. After a good deal of up and down fighting, he secured the prisoner. The prisoner, in defence, said the case was just this : —He was seated at his own door, and the policeman pulled him up, seized him by the collar, and pushed him and struck him. Ho asked him what he did that for, and he seized the policeman in return. They both fell, and the policeman struck him a violent blow on the held with his truncheon and wounded 'him. The constable also struck him a second time on. the arm. Mr. YARDLEY asked the policeman, if he used his truncheon ? Abbot replied in the affirmative. He hit the 'prisoner on the arm with it. Mr. YARDLEY—Why did you not mention that before ? The policeman—l didn't know. Mr. YARDLEY—You do know. You are sworn to speak " the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth ;" not part of the truth. You should withhold nothing. The prisoner —He hit me on the head. I lost a quart of blood. See what a state my head is in. Mr. YARDLEY —You hear what he says, constable ? Abbott—l did strike him on the head while aiming at his arm Mr. YARDLEY—You ought to have mentioned that before. Did you strike him before or after you ware knocked down ? Abbott—After I was knocked down, Sir. Inspector Bell, of the K division, and Roche, the gaoler, were directed to look at the prisoner's head, and they said there was a wound on it half an inch in length. Mr'.' YARDLEY said the - prisoner had brought the blow upon himself. The constable did not give his evidence in a very satisfactory way, which was, 'per haps, accounted for by his being young in the force ; but he denied positively striking a blow until after he was knocked down and his coat was torn. If a po liceman was knocked down, he was justified in using his staff; they were given to the police for that pur pose, although it was highly desirable that staves should not be used by policemen if it was possible to avoid it. William Muskett, a carpenter, was then called for the defence, and said that he lived in the same house as the prisoner. He heard a noise in the street, and his wife said, " There is George come home." He looked out of the window and saw the policeman, who had hold of the prisoner by the collar. The prisoner said "Let me go," and tried to get away, on which the policeman draw his cutlas ,, from the scabbard, and made a blow at. the prisoner with it. The blow did not take effect, and the policeman returned the cutlass to the sheath, took his truncheon from his pocket, and struck the prisoner on the head. The blow could have bee❑ heard a great distance. The prisoner fell, and the policeman tried to pick him up again, and in doing so Newsome laid hold of the other's coat, and being a heavy man his weight tore it. Mr. YARDLEY—A cutlass ? Had the policeman a cutlass ? The policeman said he was armed with a cutlass. It partially came out of the scabbard as he fell down. It was not out altogether. "I fell down," continued the policeman, "he on the top of me, then I on the top of him." ~➢luskett was recalled—The cutlass was actually drawn out, and the policeman made a cut at New some. lam quite certain of it., your Worship. Mr. YARDLEY-If the police man has drawn a cut lass i❑ such a case as this he otJ,ght not to be entrusted with one. The witness Muskett has given his evi dence in a way entitling him to credit, and the police constable has given his testimory in a most unsatis factory manner. lam not sat:Ls fled with the constable at all. The prisoner is dischf‘rised. The case requires further investigation. Inspector Bell—Yes, Sir; an investigation shall be made. HUMANE IN VEN TIONS.—AI 1 experiment was on Saturday made, in presence of NI. Lanquetin, President of the Municipal Commission of PIA ris; of M. Durand, Inspec tor-General of the Markets; and M. Lescuyot, chief of the syndicate of the butchers, of a. mew vehicle for conveying calves. This vehicle, which Cfal be drawn by one horse, is so contrived that twelve calves, weighing on an average 280Ibs. each, can have a separate. cell, in which each can lie down or stand as in a stable. The inventor of the cart is M. Fuys, and the adoption of it will lead to the annihilation of the present horrible system of conveyance, in which the poor animals are carried with their heads hanging over the sides of the cart.—Gulignani.

We scarcely remember an instance in which we have :wen called upon to record a more fitgrant out rage thsn was committed on the night of Saturday last; in the midst of one of the greatest thoroughfares ot Plymouth. Lawrence Rooney, an itinerant men der ot 'melon glass, spectacle frames, &c., was wend ing her way homeward, about the hour of twelve at night, when the box which he carried at his back, and which was very similar in appearance to that used by travelling jewellers, arrested the attention of two soldiers belonging to the 19th Regiment, named Revell and Grimes. The first mentioned, after endeavour ing to possess himself of the box in Bedford-street, followed Rooney to the corner of the post•office, where he knocked him down, and then ran off with his prize. The outrage did not, however, pass un observed, chase was given, and Revell having thrown away the box, but still finding himself hard pressed by a policeman, drew forth a pistol (subsequently found to have been loaded), and threatened to shoot the officer, who, however, nothing daunted, knocked the pistol aside, and succeeded in capturing the ruf fian. The name of the other soldier, who made his escape when the robbery was committed, having been obtained, both were, on Monday, brought up in cus tody before the magistrates sitting at Guildhall, and were remanded until Thursday. Mr. Jeffery, Lockyer-terrace, Union-road, was the first witness. He said the prisoners came to my shop and asked for some caps, shot, and gunpowder. I sold them ld. worth of each ; they told me they wanted it for a pistol ; described the pistol as a large one. Samuel Hawken—On Saturday night the prisoners came into his uncle's beer-shop, and had a pint of beer, and one of them asked where there was a gunsmith's shop; the other said they wanted four caps and some shot ; and he directed them to Jeffery's. Saw no pistol. Lawrence Rooney—l am a glass grinder, spectacle maker, &c. About twelve o'clock on the night of Saturday last, the 4th, I was walking up King - street towards the Pos-office, carrying my box, hang to my shoulder by a strap. The box was closed but not locked. I first met the prisoners on the other side of the Woodman. I was walking very fast and overtook the prisoners, dressed as soldiers. I wished them good night as I passed, and one of them replied in the same words. I walked on through Frankfort-street and Bedford-street, with out talking. They kept close by my side until we got near the Bedford Inn, in Bedford-street, when one of them got hold of my box and gave it two or three twitches, trying to pull it off my shoulder. I tried to keep it, and said, " Holloa, what are you about, ?" Neither of them made any answer, and I had not spoken to them, nor they to me, except what I have stated. When it was pulled I got off the pave ment into the street, and walked on towards the post-office. They stopped on the pavement walking after me until I came to Morrish's corner. I lost sight of them and walked as fast as I could home through Whimple-street, until I was in front of the post office, which is about 40 yards from the corner where I missed them; I was then knocked down by one of them, I cannot say which, and my box was taken from my shoulder by Revell immediately after I re ceived the blow, and he ran down St. Andrew-street. I did not see the other soldier until after I had passed the corner. I was tripped up from behind, and a blow on the back of my head either with the fist or flat hand. As soon as I got up I shouted " stop thief," and followed him down St. Andrew-street, shouting as I ran. When I got down to the bottom, through Notte-street, and against Messrs. Scott's brewery, in Hoe Gate -street, I saw police-officer Croker, and the prisoner Revell scuffling on the ground. At the bottom of St. Andrew-street I met Leeworthy, who gave me the box. I saw the police man endeavouring to wrest a pistol from Revell, and Croker got it from him and fired it off in the air. Prisoner was brought to the station-house by the police. I took the box home, and in the course of the night police-constable Colton came for it, and it is the same now produced. The box was made for carrying jewellery. Police-constable John Croker—l was coming up St. Andrew-street on the night of Saturday last, shortly after twelve, and met Revell running down the street from the direction of the post-office, and heard somebody from the top of the street shout " Stop him !" I put out my foot as he passed to trip him up, but I did not, and as he passed on I observed a box on his left shoulder. I ran after him. At the bottom of St. Andrew-street he threw the box over his head. At this time I was about four or five yards from him. The box was thrown towards me. I did not stop. Saw Leeworthy close by when he threw it back. Prisoner ran through Notte-street, and turned up Hoe Gate-street. Near Messrs. Scott's brewery he turned round and said, "If you come near me I'll blow your brains out," at the same time presenting a pistol. (The pistol was here produced— a very large one, with a cap lock, and was marked "B. 0, and is one usually carried by preventive officers.) I ran to him, and caught thA pistol by tho barrel -with the left hand, and the prisoner with the right hand. I got him down, and a man came to my assistance, and knelt on his breast while I got it away, and when I did so I full cocked it, and fired it off in the air. While we were struggling, he took it away once, but I immediately got hold of it again. With the assistance of two or three persons, I carried him to the station, and while there he collared me again, and Colton collared him. While there, he gave his name Thos. Brown. The prisoners were then fully committed for trial at the next assizes at Exeter. Two officers of the 19th Regiment were in at tendance to watch the proceedings. The hall was densely crowded during the examina tion.—Plymouth Herald. STAR PACKET COMPANY.

Esq., of Ingress Abbey, chairman of the board of directors, having taken the chair, called upon Mr. Dobson, secretary to the company, to read the auditors' report, which, the chairman added, would preclude the necessity of his making any observations on the condition of the company affairs for the season just terminated, as it would speak for itself. _ _ _ The report of the auditors, as read by Mr. Dobson, the secretary, was to the effect that the gross receipts of the year ending the 30th September, 1851, to gether with a balance in hand from 1850, amounted to 22,4241.13 x., the gross expenditure, 19,0011.133.2 d., leaving a balance in favour of the company of 3,422/.195. 10d. That out of that balance 1,4081.133.2 d. had been paid to Messrs. Miller and Ravenshill in liquidation of their claim ; and that a net balance of 2,014/. 63. Bd. remained to be applied to the pay ment of a dividend and the liquidation of the last in stalment of the cost of the Jupiter. This announce ment having been received with applause, the secre tary then read the directors' report, recommending the payment of a dividend of 5 per cent., which would leave a large balance, part of which they recom mended to be applied to the payment of the last in stalment for the cost of the Jupiter. It further stated that the Star boats bad, in the five months of May, June, July, August, and September, conveyed 873,000 passengers, exclusive of the season tickets and of those to and from the piers between Blackwall and Gravesend ; that but for the uncalled-for reduc tion of the fares from 9d. and Is. to 6d. and 91. there would have been a much larger balance to the credit of the company, but that still a large balance was ap plicable to the dividend proposed, and to other pur poses to be decided on by the proprietorA.—(Cheers.) The reports were adopted by acclamation ; the directors, auditors, and other officers of the past year re-elected; thanks voted with equal acclamation to the chairman; and the meeting separated in high spirits at the prosperous condition of the company. THE CHIEF MAGISTRACY OF EMNBURGH.—A very warm contest is proceedinr in Edinburgh, for the distin guished post of the c hi e f magistrate of the capital of Scot land. In addition to Mr. Macfarlan and Mr. M' Laren, who have been before the town council as candidates for some time, Mr. Grainger, civil engineer, and president of the Royal Scot'ish Society of Arts, his been brought forward. " We have thus," says the Cc. 7ed nr:soi M e rcury, " three gentlemen aspiring to the first municipal dignity, and all highly respected citizen:, who have previously borne a part in public affairs. Mr. Macfarlan and Mr. M‘Laren can each point to a long career o; public service. Mr. Grainger, als o , is no exception in this resoect, for he has been in the town council, and also for the long period of seventeen years in the improvements commission, in the affairs of which b o d y he bore an active and very efficient share. Mr. Grainger will be a formidable competitor for the office of Lord Pro vost, and we dare say, if he had started at. the outset, his chances of success would have been all but certain. Th a t he is well qualified for the office and the same may be said of Mr. Al , ..cfarlan and Mr. APLaren, for they are all veterans in our municipal annals, having been each returned to the first town council that as sembled under the Burgh Reform Act in 1833. The three candidates have been consistent in their Libe ra l op i n i ons, an d they all take their stand in supporting the s c h eme o f t h e town council for the equitable adjustment of the annuity-tax. This is an important fact, and proves, w h a t ever may b e t h e issue of the present municipal contest, th a t th e c i t i zens are singularly unanimous on the annuity-tax question. It is possible, though not very probable, th a t a f ourt h can did a t e for the chief magistracy may yet appear." - - - - SUITORS IN COUNTY COURTS, --An interesting re turn, and one of general importance, respecting the ex penses of actions in County Courts, was printed among the papers ordered by the House of Lords.. It will be seen that considerable fees can be saved by suitors agreeing without a public hearing. The costs of an ordinary defended action, for any amount between 201. and 1;01., are 3/ lls. Bd.; for any action not exceeding 1/. the costs are 6s. 4d.; above 2/. and not exceeding 20/., the expense is 3s 7d. in the pound. About half only of the causes in which plaints are entered are tried, and by that means the suitors in cases between 20/. and 50/. save the hearing fee of 21. 3s. 4d., and the bailiff's fee of ls. Bd., together 21. bs., thereby reducing the costs to 11. 6s. Sd. In any case where a counsel or an attorney is employed, the above costs do not include the coats of witnesses. In no case under Si. are the costs of coun sel or attorneys allowed. Thus it will be seen that parties, by arranging as to terms, and profiting by the hint can natezially lessen the expenses.

(From the Registrar-General's Report.) Nine hundred and fifty-three deaths were regis tered in London in the week ending last Saturday. The average of ten corresponding weeks in 1841.50 was 922 ; but as population increased during the ten years and up to the present time, the average, to be rendered comparable with last week's mortality, must be raised in proportion to the increase. The average thus corrected may be stated as 1,014, on which the deaths of last week show a decrease of 61. ....,........ _. ....,.. ..„._ ....._ _ _ The zymotic or epidemic class of diseases produced 242 deaths, or more than a fourth of the total amount, while the corrected average is 278 . The number of fatal cases ascribed to small - pox is 18, all of which occurred to children, and in none is it stated that the patients had been previously vaccinated. The n of vaccination is repeatedly noticed by the egt registrars, lea and their observations on this subject deserve atten tion. In North St. Giles , at 21, Lumber -court, the daughter of a butcher, aged 3 years, died . of mall-pox after nine days' illness. Mr. Simpson erefmarks, that " this is the second death within a w pox in this family, a brother aged six year in s havingsmali died of the disease. In neither case had vaccination been performed, the general adoption of which i s loudly called for in poor and occur, districts, w here so many fatal cases ur epidemic diffusion of the disease, , owi ng t o th e as well as a greater degree of susceptibility." In Haggerstone West, at 75, Y or k- s t ree t, th e son of a bricklayer, agHl 2 years, died of " confluent This small-pox (10 days)."(Mr. Four B o wreinr months g adds) f u rnishes another exampl e of prejudice. ago I requested the parents oiffnotllhoew ai t 7 o ,go vaccinate their chil dren, as small - pox was the neighbourhood, but they did not consent. the medical attendant of is from a letter of " On the 20th of lastfmonth I v a a tte c n as d e ed :— a girl, aged informed children bByyehaer;,lnfoorthaenr attack thatth a ere sta w a e ll re p otLauodf was s r who had not been vaccinated.
