THE CONSTITUTION OF THE CAPE COLONY, ___ • In answer t o L or d P ANMURE, The Duke of NEWCASTLE said that the orders in Council) lately sent out to the Cape of Good Hope, conferring a constitution on that country, were the same as the ordinances sent out by Earl Grey for the approbation of the colonists, with the excep tion of three alterations. The first was to reduce the franchise from fifty pounds to twenty-five pounds ; the second, to raise the qualification for members of the council from 1,0001. to 2,0001., and the third, by far the most important in his opinion, was the addition of certain words, the effect of which would b e th a t th e t wo houses of th e Legislature with the assent of the Gover nor of the colony, should have the power to introduce modifications in their own constitution, even to the ex tent of being able, subject to the approval of her Majesty, to divide the legislative body into two, one for the Eastern and one for the Western part of the colony.

Viscount EMLYN asked the first Lord of the Admi ralty whether it was the intention of the Government to take any steps to carry out the recommendations con tained in Captain Washington's report on the encroach ments on the bed of the river Tivy ? Sir J. GRAHAM said it was not the intention of the Government to incur any expense on the part of the public in the removal of the obstructions in the harbour, but they had given notice to the parties who had deposited them in the tide-way not to do so for the future, and if they disobeyed that notice the Attorney-General would be directed to prosecute them. IRISH TURNPIKE ROADS. In reply to Mr. IVIAGAN, Sir J. YOUNG declined to give any assurance that steps would be taken by the Government for the re moval of toll bars on certain roads in Ireland, observing that such removal would be an interference with the private rights of the debenture holders. SUCCESSION TAX AND CORPORATIONS. Mr. FRESHFIELD asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer whether he proposed that the succession tax should apply to property of corporations, such as the royal hospitals of St. Bartholomew, St. Thomas, and Bethlehem, held in trust for the relief of the sick poor, and for the care and cure of insane persons? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he stated the other evening that the plan the Government intended to propose would apply to corporations gene rally, including corporations of an eleemosynary charac ter ; but the hon. member would get more clear and authent►c information on the subject when the plan itself was before the house. . ADVERTISEMENT DUTY. In reply to Mr. T. M. GIBSON, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the Government had no intention whatever of proposing any alteration in the advertisement duty, except to re duce it from ls. 6d. to 6d. _Mr. T. M. GIBSON sa i d as the resolution now stood, a dvertisements in books would be liable to the duty, . which had not been the case hitherto. T he CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the resolution was open to amendment in that respect. MR. KEOGH'S EXPLANATION. Mr. REOGII raonsedto make the statement of which he had given notice, h asked the indulgence of both sides of the house Whit defended himself from charges which had been against him, and which im pugned his veracity and pe rsonal aceh honour. Altercations had too often taken not the Irish members, but in this case he was whiotiheh originator of the dispute, for the attack of m pre vi ousm e made behind his back, and withroeuet remember d no w tie as to himself. The house would Friday last a discussica took place e that on 1 in another place, in which his name was prominently brought f r ward, but as that discussion was about to be rev i ved in - a proper tribunal, he should allude to it as little as possible. It was right that he should state that the only notice he had of the discussion to which he referred was given to him by his hon. friend the member for Roscommon, about five o'clock on Friday night. He alluded to this discussion for the purpose of passing by the noble personage who introduced it—(a laugh)—but not so those who followed. A noble lord, who had filled the high office of Lord-Lieutenant of Ire land, deprecated his appointment under the present Government ; whilst another noble earl, who was some times described as the chivalrous earl, followed that statement up with the expression of his opinion that his (Mr. Keogh's) appointment was the least reputable which the present Government had made. (Hear.) He was at the bar of the House ofLords at the time this opinion was expressed, and he felt somewhat astonished at it, knowing that a noble lord who acted as the Chief Secre tary for Ireland under the late Government had offered him office. (Hear.) He immediately communicated that fact to a noble duke, who stated it to the house ; but it now seemed that the noble lord to whom he had referred denied having made such an offer. New this was some what strange, seeing that the noble earl, at the forma tion of the late Government, ran about in search of him in all directions, and called repeatedly at the Reform Club, where his appearance excited considerable surprise to see if he could find him there. It happened, however, at the time that he was not a member of the club, and the noble lord applied to several of his friends to know where he was to be found. The noble lord was told the club to which he belonged, and at that club the noble lord saw him. These circumstances he de tailed in a note which he addressed to the noble lord last Saturday, reminding him that at an interview which he had with him at his own house, the noble lord offered him office under Lord Derby's Government, stat ing that he had authority to do so from Major Beresford —a laugh)—and he required to know if the noble lord remembered the circumstance. (Hear.) This letter was delivered on Saturday, but it was not until Tuesday he got a reply. It was true the noble lord was not at home on Saturday or Sunday, but the noble lord returned to town on Monday. Still it was not until the following day that the noble lord made any reply, when he wrote back denying that he had ever made him or his friends an offer of office under Lord Derby, either directly or indirectly. (Hear.) Now, after what the noble earl said in another place, it was impossible for him to pass this denial by without calling their attention to the circumstance. He had never stated that the noble lord had made an "offer" of office. What he stated was that the noble lord asked him if he would "accept office" under Lord Derby, if it was offered to him ; and so far as that offer went, he could prove it distinctly, because he stated it to his hon. and gallant friend the member for Middlesex immediately after it was made, besides other honourable members of the house, including the honourable member for Galway. (Hear, hear.) But more than that, later in the session, the honour able and gallant gentleman the member for North Essex winningly remonstrated with him for opposing Lord Derby's administration, after Lord Naas had offered him office. (Hear, hear.) His hon. and learned friend the member for Cork, was by at the time this remonstrance was made, and the tone and manner of the hon. and gal lant gentleman having attracted his hon. and learned friend's attention, he asked what had been going on, and he (Mr. Keogh) frankly told him at once. (Hear, hear.) Now, he wanted to know, if, after this, the noble lord (Lord Naas) still adhered to his denial. Did he believe the statement of the Earl of Derby, that "no suggestion, offer, or hint of office," had ever been made to him by any one connected with the late Govern. ment, because if he did, he begged to inform the house that he had another evidence in his possession of the offer having been made. Last year, Mr. O'Flaherty, a mutual friend of himself and the noble lord, travelled from Kingston to Dublin. The noble lord stated that he had expected better treatment at his (Mr. Keogh's) hands after the offer of office which he had made him. (Hear.) There were other proofs that he could mention of office, and these he would now go into. [LEFT SPEAKING.] CRICKET. THE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD v. THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE. This match was resumed at Lord's ground yesterday, and will be found to have been ane of an extraordinary character in respect of the number of large scores. "Oxford," however, carried off the laurels, winning in one innings by 19 runs. In the course of the contest there were many exhibitions of scientific play, although the wetness of the weather tended very greatly to mar the intentions of the players.

This match was commenced at Brighton on Monday, and was resumed on Tuesday. The weather, in the early part of each day was, as in London, most unpro pitious ; but at Brighton, and not as in the metropolis, the weather cleared off, and tolerably fine was the after part. Hence it was that the match was proceeded with. At the close of the second day the aware stood as fol lows : THE ELEVEN. First Innings. Dean, c Picknoll, b Buttress 1 not out .

These packages were of such extraordinary size and weight that it was found impracticable to land them at any of the ordinary wharfs or quays used for the landing and deposit of goods from abroad, and it was therefore found to be necessary, with the sanction of the authori ties, to land them at Greenwich, where the necessary means was found to exist, in order that they might be landed and removed to their destination. METROPOLITAN IMPROVEMENTS.—Yesterday a Go vernment bill was printed to complete the new street from Spitalfields to Shoreditch, giving extended powers for that purpose. ___ INVITATION OF KOSSUTH TO SHEFFIELD.—An appli cation has been made to Kossuth to know if lie could accept an invitation to come to Sheffield, to be presented with a testimonial, Ile has replied as follows :—" It is no affectation on my part, but, under present circum stances, I can pledge myself to nothing, not even to being in England. If affairs were to be tranquil—if circumstances permit me—l should feel honoured to visit Sheffield, as suggested." No doubt Kossuth is earnestly occupied in watching the progress of the Turk ish question, as it may be the pivot on which the future history of Europe may now chance to turn. _ DREADFUL ACClDENT.—Yesterday evening, about half-past five o'clock, a most shocking accident occurred at Messrs. Perkins and Bacon's, the copper-plate printers, Whitefriars-street, Fleet-street. It appears that the premises of Messrs. Perkins and Bacon are being made one storey higher, and the unfortunate de ceased, a labourer, named Savage, was engaged, with others, in hauling up some planks, by means of a pulley, to the upper part of the house. By some means or other the rope slipped, and the end of the planks fell on the head of the unfortunate man, . crushing him in a frightful manner. He was picked up quite dead, the blood flowing from his eyes, nose, and mouth. The de ceased has l e ft a w id ow and four children to lament their untimely loss.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT-JUNE 15. (Before Mr. Commissioner Law.) IN THE MATTER OF BASIL WARM WIGAN.-BETTING EXTRAORDINARY. This insolvent, known as "Basil Wigan," described as a gentleman in no business or profession, applied to be discharged from the Queen's Prison. Mr. Denning, of the firm of Denning and Herbert, watchmaker and jewellers, of Regent-street (trading as Hawley and Company), opposed in person. Mr. Sar good supported the application for discharge. Formerly the insolvent, who is now a very young man, had been clerk in a banking establishment. Some years back he took to the turf, on which he won and lost a great deal, as set forth on his schedule. He had been in prison since December last, and it was alleged that the want of means had prevented him from applying earlier to the Court. He, however, betted on the Ches ter Cup, and the odds were 50 to 1, and having won 501., he was enabled to proceed with his case before the Court. Mr. Denning complained that the insolvent had ob tained jewellery, &c., of him to 961., and he was now in custody at his suit. The insolvent was at this time—in 1850 and 1851—living in a stylish manner, and ordered the articles. He had paid some money to him for goods supplied. The schedule was thoroughlyinvestigated bythe learned commissioner, and he remarkedupon the numerous ialors that appeared in the document. The debts on the schedule were 3,138/., for 1,500/. of which no consideration had been received. In the year 1851 the insolvent won 3,0001. on horse races, and afterwards lost considerable sums. He had resided at Long's Hotel and other places, and had hired carriages, &c. He had some debts owing to him, but they were bad. Among the debts on the schedule was one of 501., money lent some time back by Mr. Mansfield, of the Gloucester Hotel, Brighton. Mr. Commissioner Law asked the insolvent why he had not paid that debt, when he won in one year 3,0001. The insolvent said he was not then applied to for the money. Mr. Commissioner Law—The English of that is, that you could have found him, if you had chosen. His Honour remarked that the insolvent's income ceased in June 1851, and since that time he had lived pretty freely. " You," added the learned commissioner, " Got a vast deal of property out of other people for nothing." In answer to Mr. Sargood the insolvent said that in 1850 and in 1851 he was successful in betting, and he paid about 5001. of his old debts. He got goods from Messrs. Denning. They were sent home without any invoice or bill. Goods were sent home which he had not ordered. Mr. Denning declared that he never sent goods which were not ordered, and for which prices had not been agreed upon. Mr. Sargood admitted in his speech for the insolvent that the history of the case did not come before the court in a very graceful form. It was for the court to say what reasonable expectations the insolvent had had of paying his debt out of such illegal transac tions as those in which he had been engaged. He was sure the court would take into consideration that the insolvent had been some months in prison, and such was his condition that but for one of those casualties which sometimes happened, he would not have been able to file his schedule. It was the 501. won in prison that had enabled him to come before the court. Mr. Commissioner Law intimated that he did not wholly credit the statement as to the want of means. The insolvent assured the court it was true. Mr. Sargood could only hope, if the court felt it to be its duty to give a judgment, that the imprisonment the insolvent had already endured would be considered. Mr. Commissioner Law gave judgment. He observed that the insolvent, who had been in a banking house, had, when he became of age, gone on the turf, having nothing—that had been for about six years his trade or profession. There was no doubt it was a fluctuating calling, but, at the same time, those persons following it were bound to contract their expenses so that they might meet them. The insolvent had not done so, but had lived at a greater rate than his good fortune would war rant. Besides, since his income increased, he had con tracted a number of debts. Only one creditor opposed, and the question was, what reasonable expectations he had of paying the debt. He (Mr. Commissioner Law) knew that it was the opinion of some, that a person should be asked as to his circumstances, and that a tradesman who failed to do so had no right to complain if he was a loser. That was not his opinion. A trades man who was dealt with saw his customer come in a brougham and living at Long's Hotel, by which he pre sumed he was a gentleman, who could pay for the goods he ordered. The party ho got the credit knew his circumstances, and whether he had reasonable means of paying his way. That was the case here ; and, dealing with it in that manner, the insolvent would be discharged out of prison when ho had been in custody at the suit of Messrs. Denning for a period of eight calendar months from the vesting order. officer under circumstances likely to be prejudicial to the prisoner, and ou that account alone was not given in evidence. The Chief Baron said he did not see any excuse for not offering the evidence. They had been engaged all day in examining a multitude of witnesses proving cir cumstances with the greatest possible minuteness, the whole of which were admitted by the mouth of the pri soner himself, and he was afraid the statement had been kept back by a desire so strongly entertained by detec tive officers to earn a character for zeal, activity, and success, which in reality they did not deserve. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. NEW COURT. Thomas Hogan, 28, printer, and Thomas Perkins, 29, ' dealer, were indicted, Hogan for stealing one cwt. of prints, and one cwt. of publications, valued at 81., the property of William Cassell ; and Perkins for receiving the same, knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Giffard prosecuted, and Mr. Parry, Mr. Sleigh, and Mr. Prendergast defended. From the statement of the learned counsel, it appeared that the prosecutor is the printer and publisher of cheap publications on Ludgate-bill, and Hogan had been par tially in his service, and when not thoroughly employed was allowed to buy the waste of the office. A short time back, it coming to Mr. Cassell's knowledge that some prints which formed part of his stock were being hawked about the streets, Brett, the City detective, was set upon the watch, and upon the 6th of May he saw Hogan come to prosecutor's premises and take away a large quantity of paper, which he conveyed in a truck to the house of Perkins, who lives at 21, Windsor-place, City road. These turned out to be the articles named in the indictment, all new prints and publicationn. Other evi dence was then obtained which clearly established the connection between the parties and proved that the plundering and recei v i ng by Perkins had been carried on to agreat extent. They were both found guilty, and sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment and hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. SOUTHWARK. Benjamin Ward, a shabbily dressed man, described as a naval surgeon, was brought before Mr. A'Beckett, charged with stealing a great coat belonging to one of the guards, at the terminus of the London and Brighton Railway, at London-bridge. The prisoner is also suspected of being a notorious begging letter impostor, as in his possession was found a number of letters addressed to members of Parliament, Baron Rothschild, and a variety of benevolent individuals, ask ing charity. Henry Harter, a servant in the employ of the Brigh ton Railway Company, but who unlawfully assumed to be a constable, stated that his attention was called to one of the waiting-rooms in the station by a porter, who had found the prisoner concealed in a watercloset. Witness proceeded there and discovered in the prisoner's possession a great-coat belonging to one of the guards, and near him were the numbers and letters which had recently been cut off the collar. Witness asked him where he got the coat from, when he replied that it was his own, and that he had purchased it four or five weeks ago in Whitechapel. He then detained him, and took him into the superintendent's office, when he found on him a pair of horse pistols, a pair of false whiskers, and a number of begging letters addressed to members of Parliament and others. Mr. A'Beckett said he had acted as a metropolitan police-constable without any authority. He had no right to search or examine a prisoner. The witness replied that he certainly was not sworn in as a constable, but the company dressed him like one, and required him to act as such. The prisoner emptied his pockets and placed the letters and other things in his hand, when he sent for a constable outside the sta tion, and handed him over to his custody. The prisoner here exclaimed that he was searched and examined by the railway authorities, and that his letters were read, although he protested against it. Mr. A'Beckett, told the railway officer that such con duct.could not be tolerated. It was his duty to have immediately sent for a constable, and not to cross examine a prisoner in such a manner. Itichard Cheeseman, 469 A, said he was sent for about a quarter-past eight that morning to take the prisoner into custody. He had been searched by the railway authorities before his arrival, and the property produced was handed to him by last witness. Among the papers were several flash notes on the " Bank of Folly." The constable also stated that Horsford, one of the officers of the Mendicity Society, knew the prisoner, and that if he was remanded he should be able to attend on a future day. Mr. A'Beckett said he did not know that those letters had anything to do with the charge before him. He was charged with trespassing on the railway and stealing a coat. Mr. Acton, the superintendent of the railway com pany's police, was in attendanee at this period of the examination, and stated that the terminus was private property, and that their servants had power to take any trespasser into custody. The guard and the porter were also present. Jaines Winters, a porter in the employ of the railway company, said he found the prisoner in one of the water closets with the great-coat on him. Joseph Jewry, one of the guards, also identified it as the one he had recently worn, and that it was the pro perty of the company, and had been brought from Brighton by another guard. Mr. Acton said if the prisoner was remanded until Friday the latter would be in attendance, and other evi dence would be forthcoming which would further impli cate him. Mr. A'Beckett accordingly remanded him until Fri• day. THAMES.—W. Allen, 37, a coal-whipper, of most repulsiie aspect, residing at Three Cup-alley, Shadwell, was charged with being drunk and assaulting a lad named John Curling, a labourer, of Glasshouse-fields, Ratcliffe ; and also assaulting Bidgood, 168 K, in the execution of his duty. The prosecutor stated that he was sitting on a little cask at the door of a public-house where the prisoner had been drinking, when the latter came out and said— " I owe you a grudge," at the same time striking him heavily on the head. He threw himself on the ground, thinking the prisoner would cease his ill usage, but in stead of that he kicked him on the stomach and the lower part of his person, until he was doubled up with pain and rendered almost insensible. Bidgood, the con stable, was called to the spot, and found the prisoner concealed behind the public-house door, and took him into custody. On the way to the station-house he resisted with great violence, and threw the con stable several times, kicking him with such violence in the chest that he still suffered great pain. On the way they came to a place where there was a descent of ten or twelve steps, down which the prisoner attempted to throw him, but fortunately did not succeed, or his neck would have been broken. The prisoner, in his defence, said the prosecutor caused people to annoy him and his wife, and being under the influence of drink, his temper overcame him. Mr. Yardley—ls this prisoner known ? Rocho (the gaoler)—He is well known here, sir. Mr. Yardley—For what ? For violent assaults, sir. on the police, and others. There is but little doubt that he will go on until he has killed some one ; and he is worse since he came back. Mr. Yardley—Back from where ? From transports. tion. Prisoner—l got some injuries on my head, and when I get a drop of drink I am mad. Mr. Yardley—Then you should not drink, and I will do what I can to cure you. For the assault on the young man Curling I shall fine you 31., or one month's imprisonment, and for the assault on the constable one mouth's imprisonment without the alternative of a fine. The fellow was then locked up. Mr. George Williams, a comical-looking wight, do• scribed as a shipbroker, of Tower-street, City, was charged with being drunk and incapable. Mr. Yardley was about to discharge him, but seeing his description on the sheet, said, Stop, Mr. 'Williams, I see no reason why I should not fine you. Mr. Williams—l was not drunk, sir. It was all the consequences of-influenza, which left its dregs in my feet. Mr. Yardley—l fear it was brandy in the head, not influenza in the feet. (Laughter.) What is your opi nion, constable. (Laughter.) Constable—l'm sure he was drunk, sir. Prisoner—No. sir ; 'Us the dregs of the erysipelas I'm a martyr to it. (Laughter.) Mr. Yardley—Well, Mr. Williams, I think the con stable is a better judge of your disease than you yourself are, and I must fine you three shillings. • Mr. Williams, not having the cash, was about to be locked up ; but Mr. Yardley thought him too good humoured for compulsory solitude, and remitted the fine. HAMMERSMITH.—Mary Bartlett, aged 63 years, and her daughter, Mary Bartlett, living in Brook Green place, Hammersmith, were charged before Mr. Beadon with stealing a junk or basket of spinach, belongi ng t o Thomas Deadman and Emma Maria Deadman, market gardeners, Red Cow-lane, Hammersmith. The prosecutrix (Miss Deadman), who was most fa shionably attired, said she was in partnership with her brother, and the spinach and basket produced were their property. She had not missed the junk, as they were too busy on Sunday morning last to count their goods. The basket of spinach was brought to her on the pre vious evening by Sergeant Scotney of the T and she believed it was stolen on Saturday night. The younger prisoner had been in their service for upwards of ten years, but had left about nine months ago. She, however, worked for them for a quarter of a day on Thursday last. The son of the landlord of the Red Cow public-house next proved that on Saturday evening last he was on a visit to Miss Deadman, when, on going outside the house, he saw the younger prisoner come down a ladder from a loaded waggon. She had onions and spinach in her possession. He called Miss Deadman, but she said she was too busy to attend to it then. It further appeared, from two other witnesses, that the elder prisoner took the junk of spinach to a house in the neighbourhood, and said she would leave it for her daughter. The name of Deadman was on the basket, and the prosecutrix having been informed of it being in the house, she gave the elder prisoner into custody. Inspector Lee, of the T division, said the younger pri soner had just before entered the court, and had given herself into custody. The younger prisoner said, when she took the spinach she had been drinking, but she afterwards intended to return it to the master. She then said that she had had seven children by the prosecutrix's brother, and be had given her a key to enter the premises whenever she liked, and to get anything she might want. Mr. Beadon (who had evidently not heard the latter part of the younger prisoner's defence in the confusion THE SUN, LONDON, THITRSDA.Y EVENING,- “TN'E io, 1.853. of the court) fined her 20s. for the unlawful possession, and discharged her mother. After the prisoner was locked up, the magistrate was informed of what she had stated respecting the children, and the key given to her by one of the prosecutors, when his worship expressed great astonishment, and said he never should have convicted her if he had hap pened to have heard that statement. He immediately ordered the prisoner to be brought up, and called the prosecutrix back. His Worship then asked her if her brother had been cohabiting with the prisoner?—The Prosecutrix—No, sir. Mr. Nicols, the clerk—The intimacy took place, I be lieve, sir, whil e th e pr i soner was i n the service of Mr. Deadman. Mr. Beadon—Then it is a - most disgaceful affair, and one that ought never to have been brought into a court of justice. One of the prosecutors of the prisoner was the father of her seven children, and she was charged with stealing spinach, when he had actually given her permission to enter his grounds by placing in her hands a key. The Prosecutrix—Sir, sir, are we to be robbed ? Mr. Beadon—Don't sir me ; leave the court directly. T am disgusted with such proceedings. The prosecutrix then left the court, declaring that she would take the matter before another tribunal. Mr. Beadon discharged the prisoner, and cautioned her not to go near any goods that were packed. The prisoner said when she was pregnant with her last child, prosecutrix beat her about in a most cruel manner. Mr. Beadon was not surprised after the violent con. duct she had displayed in that court. HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Registrar-General' 8 Report.) The reduced rate of mortality announced in last re• turn was continued in the week that ended last Satur. day, in which the number of deaths registered was 11007. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1843-52 the average number was 887, which, with a correction for increase of population, becomes 976. The actual mor tality is, therefore, still in excess of the estimated amount by 31. As compared with those of the previous week, the pre sent results exhibit general uniformity. Fatal cases produced by typhus have risen again from 41 to 53 ; those by phthisis, from 152 to 163 ; and while bronchitis has still further declined from 63 to 54, pneumonia has increased from 42 to 62. Small-pox last week carried off 5 children and an adult ; scarlatina, 28 children and 2 adults ; measles and hooping-cough, 25 and 58 children respectively. A few weeks ago diarrhoea slightly mani fested a disposition to increase, but more recently it has subsided. The deaths from this complaint were 23, while the corrected average is 15. Mr. Hooper, registrar of the north-west su b-di s t r i c t of the City of London, has addressed the following note to the Registrar-General :—" A report of rather an alarming character having appeared in the news papers respecting scarlatina at Christ's Hospital, I visited the infirmary of the school to ascertain the facts of the case, and found that the total number of cases received into the infirmary since the 30th of Sep tember last, the date when the epidemic first made, its appearance, to this day is 76, out of which num ber 2 proved fatal ; one boy died on 12th February, and the other on 24th April. T here are at present in the infirmary 12 scholars under treatment, Bof whom lam happy to report, are convalescent. One of the masters (Rev. Mr. Collingwood) died this week. His residence is not in my district." The death of this gen tleman is registered in the Cripplegate sub-district as follows : On Bth June, Little Britain, Aldersgate, clerk in orders, 34 years, " scarlatina, delerium, convulsions." Last week the bi r th s o f 740 b oys an d 768 girls, in all 1,508 children, were registered in London. The average number in eight corresponding weeks of the years 1845-52 was 1,286. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.806 in. The reading of the barometer decreased from 29.81 in. at the beginning of the week to 29.75 in. by 3 h. p.m. on the 6th ; increased to 29.96 in. by 9 h. a.m. on the Bth ; and decreased to 29.59 in. by the end of the week. The mean temperature of the week was 60.8 deg., or 2.9 deg. above the average of the same week in 38 years. The mean daily temperature was above the average on every day, except Sunday and Monday ; on Wednesday and Saturday, when it was highest, it rose to 65 deg. and 68 deg., which are 7.1 deg. and 9.5 deg. above the average. The highest temperature in the week was 81 deg. on Saturday, th e lo wes t was 42 . 3 d eg. on T uesday. Th greatest difference between the dew point tempera ture and air temperature was 23 deg., and occurred on Wednesday ; the least was 2.8 deg. on Sunday and Fri day ; the mean difference of the week was 11.8 deg. The wind blew mostly from the south-west and south east. MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS. NUMBER OF DEATHS FROM ALL CAUSES REGISTERED IN THE WEEK ENDING SATURDAY, JUNE 11.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—Jaitc 15. Edwin Henry Powell, 2G, a young man of gentlemanly appearance, described as a clerk, was indicted, together with a person named Joseph Farrell, for forgery and uttering a receipt for money, with intent to defraud. In other counts of the indictment Farrell was charged as a principal, and the prisoner was alleged, in the terms of the statute, to have harboured, assisted, and com forted him, after the commission of the offence, he being at the time aware that he had committed it. Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Huddlestone, and Mr. Bayly con ducted the prosecution on behalf of the Bank of Eng land ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Parry. This case occupied the Court for several hours, and nearly 30 witnesses were examined for the prosecution. A great deal of the evidence, however, was of a formal character, consisting of the tracing of notes, &c., and the real facts upon which the charge contained in the last mentioned counts in the indictment (which were all that were relied upon) was sought to be established against the prisoner lay in a very narrow compass. It appeared that Farrell was engaged during the year 1851 as a supernumerary clerk in the Bank of England, and he was employed in various branches of the establish ment, but principally in the dividend warrant office, and consequently was well acquainted with the manner in which the business was carried on. It seemed that a gentleman named Davidson was possessed of a sum of 20,0001. in the Three per Cent. Consols, and that, for some reason or other, ever since the year 1847 he had not received any dividends upon his stock, and according to the custom of the Bank the warrant for each half year's dividend as it became due was placed in a par ticular drawer. Farrell had ample opportunities of becoming aware of the existence of these overdue war rants, and there appeared to be no doubt whatever that he had got possession of them, and by availing him self of the knowledge of the modes of obtaining dividends so overdue, and forging the signature of the gentleman legally entitled to them, he succeeded in obtaining on different occasions the sum of 2,3001., and it appeared that in February last he absconded, and has, up to the preient period, evaded detection. There was no evi dence whatever to connect the prisoner with the forgery, and the way in which it was attempted to support the charge of being an accessory after the fact was by show ing that he was on very intimate terms with Farrell, and that when the latter went away he accompanied him in a gig, and that they travelled about to different parts of the country ; and it also appeared that he had sent a man to the Bank of England with a 501. note, part of the produce of one of the forgeries, which he desired him to get changed, and he told him if he was asked any questions he was to say that he bad received the note from a person who was waiting outside the bank. The clerk to whom application was made for change was not satisfied with the account given him, and detained the note, but it appeared 'that no steps were taken to ascertain where the m an came f rom, and if this had been done it was very probable that Farrell would have been apprehended. In addition to these facts, Daniel Forester, the officer, proved that the prisoner came to him on the 28th February at the Mansion-house, stating that he did so in consequence of seeing an ad vertisement in a newspaper of the previous Saturday, offering a reward for the apprehension of Farrell. Upon iwing cross-examined, however, Forester said that until tivs day referred to, namely, the 26th Of February, there had been no public instruction given that any forgeries had been committed by Farrell, and that the prisoner told him that he was induced to come forward and state what he knew about Farrell in consequence of that advertisement, and that he was anxious to give him all the information he was possessed of upon the subject. .The officer likewise admitted that the prisoner told him all the places lie had been to with Farrell, and said that lie had left him at an inn near the Stoat's-nest station, .on the Brighton Railway, on the Saturday night before, and that it was very probable he was still there ; and anon his going to the place, he found the story of the ipnsoner was true, but lie ascertained that Farrell had Reft, and he traced him to Merstham, when he lost scent of him, but obtained possession of a bag which con tained more than a hundred sovereigns, which he had left behind him. Mr. Ballantine, in the course of a brief and f orc ibl e address on behalf the prisoner, contended that there vi as not a tittle of evidence in support of the charge of hArbouring and assisting Farrell, the principle felon, Zv hich was the only charge the jury were called upon to cc nsider. He said there was an utter absence of proof that the prisoner knew anything about any forgeries having been committed, and as to his having been about the country with Farrell, he put it to the jury whether, comlidering the terms of intimacy on which they were, he. might not have been induced to do so by a hundred dii ferent representations of the most innocent character. He .also particularly called the attention of the jury to the fact that the moment be did learn from the adver tise= ent that Farrell was charged with forgery he im mediat'ely went to the officer Forrester, and told him all he knew ,- upon the subject, and he said he could not help expressing an opinion that it was hardly fair for a powerful corporation like the Bank of England, in con ducting a prosecution against a person of humble cir cumstances like the prisoner, not to have instructed their .lounsel to state the fact to the jury, but leave it to be elicited by cross examination. The Chief Baron, in summing up, said that, from his ow u experience and his knowledge of what was passing around him, he was satisfied that the Bank of England retarded all matters of this description in a liberal, en lighten ad, and humane manner, and that they would not fo r a moment think of practising any unfairness towards sza individual under charge. At the same time he quite a< ;reed with the learned counsel that the statement n Lade by the prisoner to the officer ought to have been proved on the part of the prosecution. Mr. Clarkson here interposed, and said that the state ment was not on his brief, and he was quite ignorant of it. He was, however, informed, that it was made to the - BIRTHS IN THE WEEK. 740 768 .. 1,508 MRS. TROLLOPE'S NEW NOVEL, " THE YOUNG HEIRESS," bids fair to attain a more extensive popularity than any of her recent works. "In our opinion (ob serves the Standard) The Young Heiress is much the best of Mrs. Trollope's novels. The characters are drawn with uncommon vigour, and the complications of the tale managed with great ingenuity, as well as much graphic power, in describing incidents." "The know ledge of the world (says the Observer) which Mrs. Trol lope possesses in so eminent a degree, is strongly exhi bited in this novel. It is penned in her fluent easy style, the plot is ingeniously constructed, and the situations are natural and truthful. The Young Heiress cannot fail to be highly popular."

PORTSMOUTH, JUNE 15. The Odin, 16, paddle-frigate, Captain Francis Scott, came into harbour from Spithead this morning to fill up with coals, &c. The Encounter, 14, screw-corvette, Captain O'Cal laghan, received her crew from the hulk, and hauled into the stream this morning, and commenced swinging for the adjustment of her compasses. The Geyser, 6, paddle-sloop, Commander Wilson, will be paid off at this port on Friday. The Rhadanianthus, steam-transport, Master-Com mander Belarn, arrived this morning from Devonport with stores. The Sprightly, steam-tender, Master -Commander Allen, returned from Devonport to-day. The American steam-frigate yacht North Star came through Spithead again about eight o'clock last evening, after landing her pleasure party at Southampton. The platform battery salute, in return to her owner's compli ment, which we described as in course of preparation, was not fired after all. The Victoria New York line o packet ship sailed from Spithead this morning. This morning the pilot-boat Edward and Mary, of Cowes, landed at this port, from the barque Fancy, W. H. Henderson, Master, four boxes and six bags of mails from Auckland, New Zealand (dated the sth of Feb.), which passed up Channel for London. The Conflict, 8, screw, was commissioned to-day for the purpose of again proceeding to the measured mile at Stoke's Bay, having on board the constructor of the boomerang propellor, so that everything may be con ducted with perfect fairness in testing its merits against the old screw. The boomerang propellor arrived in the dockyard this morning, and will be instantly shipped ; and if the weather be equally favourable as that of to day the trial will take place to-morrow. The Neptune, 120, Captain Edward H. Scott, having caulked and payed over her topsides, commenced re-cop pering this morning. She is almost perfect in her rig ging, and by the latter end of the week will be ready to leave the harbour. The Victory, guard-ship, fired a salute of 15 guns last evening in acknowledgment of the compliment paid by the American steam-yacht North Star to the naval service at this port. They certainly were a jolly party on board the yacht, and the frequent dipping of the ensign obliged our signalmen on board to keep the haul yards in their hands to return the courtesy. The guns of the yacht brought the Royal Artillery on the Platform, it being supposed that the garrison might be honoured with a salute. Such, however, was not intended, and the men at 5.40 were marched back to their quarters. The Princess Royal, 90.—This beautiful two-decker screw advances hourly towards completion.
