The prayers and offerings of Churchmen are solicited in aid of an effort to supply the urgent spiritual wants of a newly popu lated district around the Victoria Docks. Within the last few years the formation of a portion of these Docks and Other causes have added a population of about 4,000 souls to the spiritual charge of the Incumbent of St. Mary's, Plaistow. A new town has been commenced on a low and marshy tract of ground ad joining the river Thames, totally tindrained, and intersected by stagnant ditches. In a few more years itis probable that this district Will rival Poplar, Shad well, Ratcliffe, or St. George's in the number and habits of its population. It is proposed at once to send clergymen to labour amongst these Newly-congregated mas 'es, and to increase their staff as circum stances may render necessary. Another generation must not be left to repair the neglect of the present. The object of the appeal is not to apply a palliative of an all bat hopeless evil, but to find the means of its prevention, to preach Christ's Gospel to every man, woman, and child in the district, to endeavour to bring all within the fold of our National Church, to instruct them according to her formularies, and to preserve them in the communion of her faith and worship. Ragged 'thools have been tried elrewhere with success. Why not try Ragged Churches in School-rooms ? We propose, therefore, 111 the first instance, to have SHORT SERVICES FROM THE PRAYER Boca in our Schools, adapted to the capacities of the untaught poor With lectures on popular subjects, musical and other entertainments. The Lord Bishop of London has given his cordial sanction to the Work, and has undertaken, at the earnest solicitation of the promot ers of the mission, to select the clergy, when funds are provided. To aid us in our difficult task special don dims are required for the necessary outlay for Missionary Stations, Schools, &c. ; and also regular subscribers, to enable us to support an adequate staff of teachers, clerical and lay. It is intended at an early date to submit the scheme to a general meeting. Further particulars will be given by the Rev. R. W. B. Marsh, Incumbent of St. Mary's, Plaistow; Antonio Brady, Esq., Mary land Point, Stratford, Essex, Treasurer; or the Rev. Alfred W. Mason, Stratford-green, by whom donations or subscriptions for five years will be thankfully received; or at the Bank of Coutti and Co., 59, Strand ; or Messrs. Dimsdale and Co.. 50, Cornhill, to the :m -eeting ot the Plaistow and Victoria Dock Mission. CANCER HOSPITAL, London and West Brompton.—Recretary's Office, 167, Piccadilly.—This Institu tion has been established exclusively for the treatment of the poor afflicted with cancerous diseases.

Its claimas to such pre-eminence are based upon its unri valled purity, andl fits cli ser assimilation than any other to the flavour of the flneatt , Cbampagne Brandy. There has been maßrandy made from wine in France, either in the present year or in tthe preceding one. Owing to the successive failures of their vintages, thee French wine grower gets a higher price for his wine, vmsumed ass 4sucb, than he can realise by its being distilled into Brandy; and'frorasmuch as the foreign Brandy of recent impel , tations is but the ;product of British grain and beetroot spirits, the prestige hitherto eexclusiveiy enjoyed by French Brandy as having been distinct fronuria particular French wine no longer exists, and is no longer worthily; - :assignable to it now that it is bunglingly made from other matertalts. The supply of wine for distillation into Brandy having failed, the Wrench distiller is constrained to recur to a manu facture in which lite needs the quarter of a century's experience which has been' (exercised upon that of BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY, to rend his article respectably competitive, and he has not had it. Underrtthese circumstances the Messrs. Betts challenge that their PAT ERB ;BRANDY is superior to any now made abroad. It is to the interne& of the public and the Messrs. Betts that these facts should.llta widely spread, for recent importations are of a quality so interim as to di grace the name they bear, and are twice the price of BIETTS'S PATENT BRANDY, which is supplied by the trade, in eatosuled bottles, to private Camille- in any quan tity, down to the En ng I e bottle.

Yesterday the first instalment of .the omnibuses projected by the Saloon Omnibus Company was produced before the public, and submitted to the inspection of the police authorities in Scotland yard. The present series, which is to be followed by others in the course of the ensuing month, and so on as the public manifest a desire for improved omnibus conveyance, consisted of six omnibuses, and as they emerged from the yard of Mr. Aysh ford, the builder, in Drury-lane, their comfortable looking insides and bright exteriors of yellow and blue excited no little alention and speculation along the sty eets. Omnibus reform has been for a long time befoie the public, and although it h as not been so much a subject of discussion as other topics of reform, there are few points in which the Lon donpublic, judging from the interest and excite ment caused by yesterday's display, take more con cern. The narrowness of the present omnibuses ; the inevitable jamming and dove-tailing which takes place in consequence ; the disputes, if you are fond of the London atmosphere, such as it is, which arise with yeur next neighbour, who prefers any amo un t of fcetid vapour to a " thorough draft ;" the uni versal aversion to a dripping umbrella, and the ill concealed titter when a lidy of 14 stone comes to take the last unoccupied seat beside a gentleman of 16 stone, are mat era of every-day omnibus experi ence. The wonder is that this state of things, has been endured BO long ; bat when it is recollected that the monopoly price is the highest price which .theltorst article will fetch', and that the competi tion price is the lowest for which the best article can be sold, the wonder ceases altogether ; for heretofore there has been no competition whatever in omnibus conveyance. The improvements in the patent saloon omnibus are—better ventilation. , (though in this respect there is room for improve ment, of which the directors themselves seem to be cognisant) ; greatly increased accommodation inside ; umbrella stands ; bells for communicating with the driver and conductor ; double doors, which facilitate egress and ingress and promote ventilation; a more easy mode of ascending to the top of the omnibus, and greater comfort when you get there, and several minor improvements.. Sir IL Mayne, Col. Pasco, - and Mr. Yardley inspected the new omnibus in Scotland-yard, and whilst they suggested slight improvements here and there, they fully re cognised the general superiority of accommodation afforded by them. One of the recommendations suggested by Sir R. Mayne was that the new com pany should not permit advertisements to be placed in the omnibuses, to the expediency of which the directors present entirely assented. After the in spection in Scotland-yard, the six vehicles drove along the Strand, Fleet-street, and Cheapside, and drew up before the Mansion-House, where they were inspected by the Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress, who expressed themselves in terms of entire satisfaction with the new conveyance. As might be expected, the " innovation" was matter of keen comment amongst the omnibus and cab driv ing confrateinity. The former class seemed to be quite divided in opinion. However worthless their opi nions on great specific questions, each driver or con ductor seemed to be "aliquis in omnibus ;" and as the new vehicles drove by, he no doubt voted aye or nay on the mighty question. As to " Cabby," there was a pretty general contempt at the attempt to "sell arm-chairs at 4d. a drive ; " and to him anything but a one-horse carriage and a shilling fare seemed. to be the curse of London at thi s par ticular moment, and the thin end of the wedge which was to bring about the lamentations of the New Zealander from London-bridge. The new omnibuses are to commence running on Easter Monday, and will ply on the following roads :—Notting-hill and .Bayswater to the West end and City ; Highgate and Holloway to ditto ;. Ralston to ditto ; and Stoke Newington to ditto. In the afternoon the directors and officers of the company assembled at the Albion, Covent-garden, and drank "Success to the new company." It should be mentioned that the new vehicle has been designed by Mr. Lyall, and that it is not heavier in weight or broad er i n th e w h ee l trac k than the present. omnibus, although the accommo dation insiders much more ample. RETIREMENT OF MR. BRIGHT. (From the Times.) The enforced retirement of Mr. Bright from public life, upon which he 'addresses his late consti tuents in the letter we publish to-day, is an event in our modern Parliamentary history which we can net pass over without notice. Let men agree or disagree with his political opinions as they will, upon one point there can be no doubt whatsoever, that a well-graced actor has left the scene. There was a vigour and fire in the man which we seek in vain elsewhere among • candidatesfor the orator's Chaplet in the House of Commons. We remember well when the Reform Bill was p asse d, it was antici pated that a number of rough untameable speakers would be sent up by the new-born constituencies to the House of Commons—men who would deal with *the good old Parliamentary rhetoric and the good old quotations from the classical authors, and all the received elegances of the place, in no very reverential spirit, and who would yet earn for themselves a great name, and for their consti tuents greater influence and greater power in the political system. The late Sir Robert Peel is re ported to have said when Mr. Bright made his first effective appearance in the House—" Ah I here at last is one of those terrible men of '32 ! " Mr. Bright and Mr. Cobden are the only two inhtapces which, occur to us of men who have realised the an:- ticipaion, and of the two there is no doubt that Mr. Bright is the one who had earned for himself by far the higher position in the House. Mr. Cob den's name is associated imperishably with one great que.tion, but out of that, it would be admit ted, we presume, even by his immediate admirers,. that he had not attained the same general reputa tion for high oratorical power as Mr. Bright. It is needless to say that the views of Mr. Bright on many political subjects, and, we believe, upon all questions connected with the foreign and military policy of the Country, have ever been essentially different from those which we have ad vocated. We cannot, however, in the hour of his trial and affliction, consent to turn upon a man who had attained so eminent a position. 'Wird among those who rail most loudly at John Bright will ever do one tithe of what he has done, even with all the adventitious circumstances of birth and wealth upon their side ? We are always ready and eager to give our tribute of admiration to any person connected with the upper ranks of English society who displays any extraordinary amount of ability, any great degree of courage, any peculiar aptitude for the public service ; but why should we of the middle classes be ever affiliated to a huge secret conspiracy for keeping down our own peers ? That Mr. Bright was hot headed at times and impracticable in his views, we admit, but then it should be remembered that the questions which have mainly occupied the attention of the house for the last five or six years have just been of that sort which would try his im practicability to the quick, without giving scope for the display of his more effective qualities. The man was in a false position. Had there been the remotest chance that his views Could have been carried out in practice, he himself would no doubt have started back in amazement and disgust when he saw their 'consequences upon the eve of fulfilment. When half-a-dozen prophets find themselves opposed to a majority of 600 it- is astonishing with what vigour they will maintain their protest against the wicked ness of the times. Put a prophet, however, at the head of the Board of Trade, and, if he were a man of real ability, he would at once descend from his altitudes and transact the business of his depart ment in a satisfactory manner. That we believe would have been Mr. Bright's ease. When the late election for Manchester was as yet undecided we ventured to offer a few suggestions in Mr. Bright's favour, which have, as we have been informed, drawn upon its the displeasure of Many of, our friends in that city. ~.It would, we still think, have been in better taste —more grace ful, and more generous—had they allowed the necessary rupture, if rupture there was to be, to come from Mr. Bright, instead of from them. Of his great abilities and great services there could be no doubt, and as little that the affliction which has lately fallen upon him was the result of over exertion in public life. It was, however, compe tent to them to say that the interests of the borough and of the house could not be reconciled with tile continuous absence of one of their mem- - - bers from his Parliamentary duties. This appears to have been their view in par`, and in part their resolution has depended upon their strong desire to free the Borough from the ele3toral tyranny of the League. We know not if tLere be any more private and personal causes, but at any rate the blow has fallen, and Mr. Bright, as far as Man chester is concerned, is banished from the House of Commons. We foresee a time when even Man chester may desire once more the services of that eloquent tongue and that resoluta heart. Surely, the present House of Commons is aristocratic enough and "territorial" enough for all useful pur poses, and we might have found our advantage in the presence of the bold Tribune who might even at times be over-fervid in attack. We believe Mr. Bright to have been conscientious in his views —no man could have produced the effect he pro duced upon his fellows without a great amount of earnestness and real conviction. We know him to have been one of the most eloquent men in the House of Commons, and as a man of high ability we regret his loss. We are not to be reckoned among Mr. Bright's political friends ; but let him feel satisfied that there are thousands of his poli tical opponents who would rejoice equally with his friends at his full restoration to health and to his public career. MR. BRIGHT'S FAREWELL ADDRESS. To THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF MANCHESTER. "Gentlemen,—l have received a telegraphic de spatch informing me of the result of the election contest in which you have just been engaged. That result has not greatly surprised me ; and so far as I am personally concerned, inasmuch as it liberates me from public life in a manner which in volves on my part no shrinking from my duty, I cannot seriously regret it. I lament it on public grounds, because it tells the world that many among you have abandoned the opinions you pro fessed to hold in the year 1847, and even so re cently as in the year 1852. I believe that slander itself has not dared to charge me with having for saken any of the principles on the honest support of which I offered myself twice, and was twice ac cepted as your representative. The charge against me has rather been that I have too warmly and too faithfully defended the political views which found so much favour with you at the two previous elect ions. " If the change in your opinion of me has arisen from my course on the question of the War with Russia, I can only say that, on a calm review of all the circumstances of the case—and during the past 12 months I have had ample time for such a review —I would not unsay or retract any one of the speeches I have spoken, or erase from the records of Parliament any of the votes I have given upon it, if I could thereby reverse the decision to which you have come, or secure any other distinction which it is in the power of my countrymen to con fer. lam free, and will remain free, from any share in the needless and guilty bloodshed of that melancholy chapter in the annals of my country. I cannot, however, forget that the leaders of the Opposition in the recent contest have not been in fluenced by my conduct on this question. They were less successful, but not less bitter, in their hostility in 1852, and even in 1847, when my only *public merit or demerit consisted in my labours in the cause of free trade. On each occasion, calling eindgwith their candidates the Lt also,ebmersaellsves they co al c e a s l c l Conserva tives, while now, doubtless, they have assailed Mr. Gibson and myself on the ground of a pretended coalition with the Conservatives in the House of Commons ! _ _ _ " I have esteemed it a high honour to be one of your representatives, and have given more of men tal and physical labour to your service than was just to myself. I feel it scarcely less an honour to suffer in the cause of peace, and on behalf of what I believe to be the true interests of my country, though I 'could have wished that the blow had come from other hands, at a time when I could have been present to meet face to face those who dealt it. • In taking my leave of you, a n d o f p u bli c lif e , " let me assure you that I can never forget the many, the innumerable, kindnesses I have received from my friends amen°. you. No one will r ej o i c e more thanr; and a all i shall ntoltia withoutt brings you prosperity and a hope that when a calmer hour shall come you will say of Mr. Gibson and of me that, as colleagues in your representa ton for ten years, we have not sacrificed our prin ciples to gain popularity, or bartered our independ ence for the emoluments of office or the favours of the groat. I feel that we have stood for the rights, and interests, and freedom of theipeople, aid that we have not tarnished the honour or lessened the renown of your eminent city. "I am now, as I have hitherto been, very faith fully yours, " JOHN BRIGHT. " Florence, March 31." ME NEW SPEAKER. (Front the Daily News.) We are told that the choice of .Ministers has fallen on Mr. Evelyn Denison as the person best qualified to occupy the position of Speaker of the new House of Commons. Other n , mes have, in deed, besn mentioned as likely to divide the suf frages of the Liberal party; and more than one mem ber of the Opposition has been spoken of as pos eessing claims of more or less validity t 3 the vacant chair. We willingly abstain from the invidious task of comparison : in the present case we believe it to be unnecessary, and therefore worse than nee less. It is not likely that a trial of party strength will take place onthe first day of the session. between Liberals and Conservatives the disparity of force is too great, the preponderance t.to over whelming, to admit of any reasonable doubt as to the issue of such a contest ; and having regard to the permanent strength and stability of the popu lar party itself, we confess that we have no desire to see a conflict of personal pretensions for the Chairmanship of the, Commons between men who sit upon the same side of the' House. Assuming, then, that Mr. Denison will in all pi obability he chosen without opposition; it becomes our duty to ask, what manner of man is he on whom a trust so notable and so important is likely to devolve ? The family of which Mr. Denison is the head owes its origin, like that of so many of our leading gentry, to successful mercantile enterprise. It-, founder made a fortune in trade—we believe at Leeds —more than a century ago; and more than one of its members have honourably distinguished themselves in the law and in other walks of life. The present proprietor of Ossington was born in the first year of the century, and succeeded at a very early age to the position he has since occupied. If we are not much mistaken his first experience as . a man of business was derived from the pystemetic pursuit of agricultural improvement on an extensive scale, and the application of means at the time .regarded generally as almost empirical to the reclamation and development of the resources of the toil. But while thus engaged in works of local usefulness Mr. Denison was not insensible to the attractions of political life. After quitting Oiford he had, in company with the present Lord 33erhy and Mr. Labouchere, made a protracted tour through the United States of America. Soon after their return each of the three friends entered Parliament ; and all of them took an early interest in the struggle of parties then for the most part concentrated on the great question of Catholic Emancipation. On the accession of Mr. Canning to the Premiership in 1827, Mr. Stanley and Mr.' Denison were both called upon to Ml subordinate office, the former as Under-Secretary for the Colonies, the latter as one of the Lords of the Admiralty. By his marriage with the daughter of the late Duke of Portland, Mr. Denison had become closelyconnected with the family of Mr. Ganning, and it is probable that had that gifted statesmen lived, his young friend would have speedily filled a position of greater official prominence. Whether owing to Mr. Canning's premature decease, or to some other cause of which we are unaware, it does not appear that the mem ber for Nottinghamshire formed a part in any of the Liberal administrations subsequently formed. We have some recollection of a criticism passed by him on the composition of the Government of 1846, of which Lord John Russell was the head — the gist of which, if we remember aright, lay in pointing out the absence of territorial influence as represented in the Cabinet then formed. We ap prehend that the sympathies of the Speaker elect have always been emphatically, though we are far from saying exclusively, identified with the landed interest ; and it is a somewhat curious coincidence that his elevation to the chair of the Lower House should come at a moment signalised by the extru sion from Parliament of the more conspicuous leaders of the Manchester party, and by the return of a good -number of country magnates to the Liberal banner. But there is another coincidence not unworthy of note, and illustrative of a truth of deeper import. The party of Mr. Canning, containing though it did many of the best and ablest men of the time, seemed to have been scattered to the winds.by his premature decease. That of Sir Robert Peel, after seven long years of varied struggle, has now like wise vanished from the scene. it is a strange and significant fact that the three greatest posts in the empire are at this moment filled by three of the individuals most closely allied with Mr. Canni ng ' s fame and fortunes. His son is Governor-General of India ; the nephew of his wife may already be said to be Speaker of the House of Commons ; and his trusty friend and adherent, whom he firstraised in 1827 to the dignity of a Cabinet Minister, is Premier of England. Are thee all accidents? We think not. Are they evidences of some can ning design ? Assuredly no. But we are not un willing to ascribe such a concurrence of circum stances to that silent but sure working of compen satory justice which in the long run sways the judgment of a free and reflecting people. Mr. Canning was the victim whom in their despair the Tory party sacrificed without shame or scruple, on the threshold of power. Sir Robert Peel, whose band no penitent ablutions could cleanse from the stain of participation in that dastardly deed, was twenty years later driven from the same door where his great rival had perished. And now that both have passed away, and all trace of those who ad hered to them as political parties has vanished from the scene, it is not uninstructive to find that in the national remembrance a place is still kept for those whom Canning loved to honour, and that a gene rous preference is given to them over Peelites of. every degree. We entertain no doubt that Mr. Evelyn Denison will discharge with dignity, fidelity, and consis tency the duties of the station he is about to occupy. He is a man of a punctilious sense of honour ; a man of stainless life ; a man of more than thirty yeaia' experience in the business of Parliament ; a man of sound enlightened views ; and, in the best sense of the term, an English gentleman. We do not know that we agree with Mr. Denison in all his political opinions ; but we are free to say that we do not think a better man could have been selected for Speaker of the House of Commons. THE AUSTRALIAN 3VILS. SOUTHAMPTON, APRIL 9. The European and Australian Company's steam ship Jura, Captain E. It. Moidie, arrived here this morning with the Australian mails received at Suez per Simla, and thence conveyed overland to Alex andria. She left that port on the 28th ult., and Malta on the Ist of April. The Jura brings 15 first-class and 14 second-class passenger, and on freight 21 packages of specie, value 84,717 i., one package of gold coin, value 1,1001., 630 bales of cotton, wdol, &c., and 50 mis cellaneous parcels. On the 31st of March, in lat. 35 35, long. 16, the Jura spoke the bark Circassian, bound to the north west ; and ou the 7th of April in lat. 44 25, long. 8 42, the screw steamer Albania. . We received per Jura files of papers from Sydney to February the 10th, and Melbourne the 14th, but they contain no news beyond that already, pub lished, received two or three days since via Mar seilles. The company's steamer' European, Captain Par fitt, arrived F . out at Melbourne on Feb. the 10th, in 58 days from Southampton, and sailed for Syd ney on the following day. After lauding her mails, passengers, specie, and part of the cargo at Southampton, the Jura left this afternoon for Liverpool, to discharge the cotton and wcol she has on board and take in cargo for the next outward voyage, this course being adopted on account of the heavy charges on the transit of goods levied by the South-Western Railway Com pany, whose true interests would be served by a reduction of their rates to a minimum scale, so as to induce a larger accession of business to this port. The.next outward mails for Australia, Axe., will be taken by the Etna, Captain Millar, which leaves this on Sunday, the 12th inst. COLLISION ON THE CALEDONIAN RAlLWAY'—Yester day (Monday) morning, a special train which left Lanark at ten o'clock—carrying the state of the poll to Glasgow, and some gentlemen who - intended to record their votes —overtook a mineral engine near Overton station. The train WAS proceeding at nearly full speed, and neither the drivers nor stokers of either e ngine observed the danger until a moment before the collision took place. The guard, driver, and stoker of the special train were injured, but not seriously. Two passengers alio were injured—one of them having two of his teeth knocked down his throat. We hope that the circumstances at tending the occurrence will be properly investigated.— aksgew Mary Nail. [PRICE 4 D . STAMPRD 51) POLICE. INTELLIGENCE-April 9. Mr—Whitcomb said they would undertake to do so. The Lord Mayor said it was the opinion of his brother magistrate and himself that the prisoner bad born' an irreproachable character up to the present time, but that he had been tempted to act didioneitly on 'account of want of money for domes tic purposes. Had the prosecutors nut consented to receive the prisoner again into their service it would have been the duty of the Court to inflict a severe punishment. Under all the circumstances of the case, the Court thought the ends of justice would be answered by sentencing the accused to a day's imprisonment, after which he would return to his masters' employment. . MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—Margaret Wat son an Catherine M'Cormick, mother and daugh ter, were brought before Mr. Bingham. for re-ek mination, charged with stealing a quantity of table linen, sheefs, (tc., from the residences of the Earl of Shaftesbury and Viscount Palmerston, where they had been occasionally employed in charinv: After' some additional evidence the prisoners were committed for trial. Peter Wallace, aged 66, Lieut.-Gen. of Artillery, residing at No. 3, Crescent-place, Milbank, was charged with indecently exposing his person. ' Miss Susanna Clark, of 102, Oxford-street, ladies' ready-made linen warehouse, said—The pri soner came into the shop to-day, and asked to look at a lady's chemise. I turned to take down parcel, and when I got the right parcel I turned round, and distinctly saw that he was exposing hiun:•elf. Mr. Bingbam—l am obliged to ask you to speak plainly. Did you see bis naked person ? Witness—l did. I heard the prisoner previously say "Don't you know me ? I've been here be fore," for the purpose, as I believe, of attracting my attention to what be was doing. I immediately ran to the other end of the shop and spoke to my brother-in-law, and asked him to turn out the man, telling bim at: the same time what I had witnessed. The. prisoner did not speak when he made the ex- - Mr. Bingham--bid you give him in charge ? Witness—My brother-in-law asked me if I was quite sure about what I complained of ? I said I was, and my brother-in-law replied he would give him in charge. _ _ Edwin Busby, brother-in-law of the witness, said —As soon as I was informed of what the prisoner had done I went to him ,and asked him what h e meant by what he had been doing. He said, "I have not done anything," and I then gave him into custody. Police-constable Steevens, E 71, said—l took charge of the prisoner. He said he was not guilty. Mr. Bingham (to the prisoner)—l .am ready to hear anything you have to say. Prisoner—l went into the shop in Oxford-street, where I had been accustomed to buy things for my wife, who is now dead. I asked for a lady's che mise, and the witness pulled down some parcels, but did not appear to have what I wanted. There were five or six young women in the room.. Sud denly the witness ian round the counter; she was on one side and I on the other, and at first I thought she was in a fit. However she could ima gine anything I cannot say. Except that put my hand into my pocket to pull out my purse, I knew of nothing that could be mistaken for such an act as that described. There were five or six young women near the counter and about the shop at the time. ' This is one of those charges that it is impos sible for any man to face except by telling all he can recollect. Mr.'Bingham recalled Miss Clark, and - laid— You have heard what has just been said. Are you quite sure you have made no mistake ? Do you re peat your statement notwithstanding the denial you have just heard ? Miss Clark—l do. Mr. Bingham—lt is my duty to send this case to the Quarter Sessions in order that the opinion of a jury may be taken on the conflicting statements of the accused and his accuser. I shall call upon the accused to find high bail for his appearance—two sureties in 1001. each, and himself in 2001. MARYLE BONE. —James Williams, a man about 35 years of age, was charged under the following circumstances. It appeared from the evidence that on the previous afternoon the prisoner went to the shop •of Mr. Keyzer, 46 A,. Edgeware-road, and offered for sale a silver spoon and fork, both of which had been bent double. Upon being questioned as to how the articles came into his possemion he said that he had. bought them for ss. of the butler at 8, Kensington gardens-terrace. Suspecting that they had been stolen Mr. Keyzer detained the prisoner until the arrival of police-constable Holloway, 268 D. Upon inquiry being ,instituted it was ascertained that the property belonged to Mr. W. H. Weatherby, whose address the prisoner had correctly given to Mr. Keyzer, and that on the day of the robbery he had called at the house to see the butler, to whom he had for many months been known. The butler said that it was not the wish of his master to prosecute ; but Mr. Long stated that it was a most serious of fence, and deserved severe punishment. The prisoner, who pleaded guilty, and said he was very sorry for what he had done, was sent to hard labour in the House of Correction for six calendar months. SOUTHWARK.—George Wilson, an active looking young fellow, was charged with stealing a purse containing silver money, also with assaulting Thomas Richards, a detective inspector attached to the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway. Mrs. Sarah Kemp, an elderly lady, said she was passing by St. Saviour's Church, opposite the rail way terminus, about 4 o'clock on the previous afternoon, when she felt some person pushing rather rudely by her. She put her hand down to protect herself, when she caught the prisoner's hand in ber pocket and missed her purse and a quantity of silver. He was afterwards apprehended, when she charged him with robbing her. Thomas Richards, a detective inspector in the employ of the Brighton Railway Company, and who was for many years an experienced officer of the M division, said that he was near the entrance of the railway, when he saw the prisoner put his hand into several persons' pockets. He crossed the road to apprehend him, when witness saw him run away from the lady. He pursued him and captured him in St. Saviour's churchyard, where they had a desperate struggle together, The pri soner kicked him and struck him a severe blow on the right eye. He also spoilt . his hat in the en counter. The magistrate asked whether the purse or money was fouud on the prisoner. Richards replied in the negative. There was such a crowd of persons about that he had every opportunity of passing it to a companion. Witness knew the prisoner to be a companion of notorious pickpockets infesting the railways, but he could not say whether he had been previously convicted. The magistrate asked the prisoner whether he e latter, effrontery, said p i l d ea hed would prefer being sent to t he sessions for trial o r being tried by hint.. I guilty. The prisoner, with the f greatest h should plead gu ilty, as he did not wish to go to the ( e L e a o ug ul i d ite be r.) no Them session.algti s l r a a s t t e o t o o lmuchd him trouble. timth ter doubt what sort of a character ,he form wag, and had there been any former conviction he should have sent him for trial. He should, h owever, inflict the heaviest punishment the law allowed hire by sen tencing him to the House of Correction for six m onths with hard labour. LAMBETH. —Jane Collins, a rather good-look ing young woman, was further examined before the lion. G. C. Norton, on a charge of stealing a gold watch, gold chain, and a silk dress, the property of her late mistress. Mrs. Sar ah Hammond, a lady residing in the . Brixton -road, deposed that the prisoner bad been in her service for about a month, and on that day week she discharged her from her situation. Soon after she had left she (witness) discovered that her gold watch and chain had been taken from her drawers, as well as a dress belonging to her. She went to the residence of the prisoner's mother in search of her, and finding that she had not gone home she gave information of the robbery to the police, and she next saw the prisoner in outstodY• MANSION-HOUSE.—John Berry, who has been remanded upon the charge of having robbed his employers, Messrs. Marlaud and Whitcomb, Manche-ter warehousemen, of Star-court, Bread street, of a'piece of silesia of the vtlue of 205., was brought before the Lord Mayor and Mr. Alderman E..gleton, in petty sessions, for final . examination. The L - rd Mayor inquired whether, in the event of a light punishment being inflicted, the prosecu tors would again take the prisoner into their ser vice.? CATCHING A TAR-TAR. The old adage which declares that they who touch pitch cannot escape defilement seems equally ap plicable to those who have to do with tar, as far as regards that variety of it produced during the ma nufacture of gas. The greedy inhumanity recently displayed by a City gas comPany, whose works were injuring the health of the residents in one of the most crowded neighbourhoods of London, ap pears amiable and philanthropicin comparison with the proceedings disclosed during a recent trial at Kingston. So horibly nauseous and injurious is the filthy refuse matter resulting from the manu facture of gas, that it is expressly forbidden by law to be exposed, lest its emanations prove injurious to health. It is even filthier than the waters of the Thames, with whose stream its ad mixture is specially prohibited by the Corpora tion of London as conservators of the river ; for, strange to say, the Thames, only odorous with the essence de mille-sewers, is a conservatory. Now, the London Gas works Company have an esta blishment at Vauxhall, near to the river's edge ; and it seems that the opportunity thus afforded to save the expense of removing or deodorising the refuse matter was too much for the virtue of the directors to resist. Moreover, if the worst came to the worst, they were hand and glove with the Cor poration, who would not be very hard (as was sub sequently proved) ontheir own particular friends. So, in defiance of the c onserva t or y p ro hibiti on, an d with a full knowledge of the injurious influence on human health and life exercised by the emanations from gas-refuse ' however diluted, the London G as Company, with diabolically deliberate ingenuity, ran a concealed iron pipe to the middle of the river. and by means of a steam-engine specially fitted for the purpose, pumped their gas-refuse into the midst of this much-suffering stream. This noxious mat ter, known in the trade as " blue hilly" (perhaps the origin of the French malediction, ventre blue), and which is strongly charged with sulphuretted hydrogen, has been for months polluting the air breathed by thousands of those very poor who are crowded so thickly together on the river's edge at Lambeth and Vauxhall. We are fully justified by the laws of sanitary science in asserting that the coup-de-grace has thus been given to many a feeVe child, and many a drooping, half-starved invalid. If the proceedings of the gas company displayed considerable ingenuity (in a Newgate-calendar point of view), the mode of detection pursued by the City officers was equally clever. They attached a Bose to the opening of the pipe, and so conveyed the contents, belched out from its mouth, into a neigh bouring barge. An action aglinst the company was commenced at the Kingston assizes.

THAT HAS BECOME OF THE ONEIDA.? • (From the Dail!r News.) Has she gone down by burning or foundering ? Has she been delayed by her mac!•in6it getting out of repair, or from want of fuel? If so,-how long is she likely to be delayed ? Where will she turn up ? —at Swau River, Singapore, 1 3 ,int de Galle, Aden, Mauritius, or any of the small islands in the In dian Ocean ? The Oneida was the pioneer ship of the Overland Australian Mail line. She 'had nearly 200 souls on board and a large quantity of gold. The Simla started 18 days after her from. Australia, passed over the same route, and has ar rived before her. The Oneida ought to have ar rived at Suez March the 6th, and she bad not reached that place March 26th. The Jura has arrived with the Simla's mails and passengers, and the latter have furnished some in teresting particulars respecting the missing ship. The Oneida could stow away 1,400 tons of coals, and there can be no doubt she took that quan tity from Sydney and filled up at King George's Sound. The Simla took in bad coals at Sydney, but nevertheless she made the voyage from the Sound to Galle in good time and had coals to spare. But it is not certain that the Oneida had bad fuel, and this is a matter of some, importance when it is considered that her consumption is so much greater than that of the Simla. The Simla was most extra ordinarily favoured in her weather. Through Bass's Straits she had an ea s t er l y b reeze which is rather unusual, and from the Sound to G-alle she had most favourable winds. There were not the slight est signs throughout the voyage to Galle of recant foul weather, and Capt. Cooper, the commander of the Simla, was perfectly surprised on arriving at that place to find that the the Oneida bad not m-xle her appearance. Now the Oneida is a full-powe-ed screw steamer ; with anything like favourable wea ther she would steam about 260 miles a day, which would bring her from King George's Sound to Point de Galle in 13 days, the distance being 3,300 miles. Now, assuming that she had a full supply of good coals on board, and reckoning her consumption at 80 tons a-day, that supply would last 17 days. It would, therefore, appear most improbable that she has been detained in the Indian Ocean for want of fuel. Supposing again that her,machinery gave way, her delay can be accounted for. Unfortu nately she has a large three-fanned screw, which cannot be disconnected, and this would render her sailing powers of the slowest description, so that her delay is not in some respects so alarming. But a most important consideration is whether she may not be detained so long in the Indian Ocean as to fall short of provisions, especially if she broke down near the line, where she may be becalmed for a long time, and even be unable to make any head way if she met with a moderate wind in her favour. The Simla* would have made a quicker passage than she did if her bottom had not beenfoul. As soon as she reached Suez she turned round immediately and started for Australia, and it is expected that she will make a capital passage out, and reach her des tination within the contract time. When she gets to Sydney . again she Krill bs der bottom cle ane d. The temporary dock made fo,! the Oneid a th ere was not large enough for the A patent slip is making at Sydney for cleaning and repairing the large mail steamers. Capt. Cooper, the - commander of the Simla, won golden opinions from the passen gers, and they presented him with an a dd ress o f satisfaction at Suez. One of the passengers was Mr. Westgarth, a colonial celebrity. Many of the pas sengers went. to England via Marseilles, from Malta. Mr. Westgarth and about 30 others came on to Southampton. The overland route is likely to be a favourite one, after a short time. At present the colonists have a dread of crossing the Egyptian de sert. The Simla brought home only a small quan tity of gold, because a large number of favourite clipper ships were about to leave Australia for Eng land at the same time as she left, and because also of the recent departure of the Oneida. The 'En o pean, which would leave Sydney and Melbourne. a month after the Simla, with the 'overland mail, would, it was expected, bring a large quantity of gold. When the Simla left Melbourne, three nug gets had been found, each worth about 1,600/. ster ling. Trade in Victoria was quiet. -It was expected that Sir Henry Barkly, the new governor of that colony, would not have very many or very great difficulties to contend with. The Australian passen gers were delighted with the Jura, which brouOt them to Southampton from Alexandria. The Jura, as soon as she landed her passengers, mails, and ' specie at Southampton, started for Liverpool. The mails consisted of 139 boxes and 17 bags of letters and papers, which were despatched to London by a special train. The following letter has been addressed to the editor of the Times : " Sir,—May I crave a corner to say a few words upon a subject of deep and painful interest ? " Where is Capt. Hyde, where is the Oneida, with her large living freight and he r go ld ? f' All we now is this—she was the first home ward vessel for Suez under the new steam contract; She left King George's Sound on the 4th Feb., the correct time, and when the Simla left Galle last March the Oneida had not been heard of. " Le,t us look at the probable facts. The captain leaves King George's Sound with a notoriously slow vessel (when only under canvass), a very cor morant for fuel to get her along, and then well filled up with coal. " He would steam away, and would have no doubt a splendid south-east trade. He would thus enter the tropics within four days. And now comes the doctrine of chances. On the course be took he would have no fear of hurricanes, though thay would be in season.' If he bad an accident from fire, it must be remembered he had plenty of boats, and was supplied with Clifford's lowering apparatus. In that event he would have been heard of at Mau ritius in some shape before the Ist of March. If his engines broke down—and he would try their strength to make this first pas s age—he could boar la up for no other port , wi th a fair wind, than that carry on' George topmast. must rrY a dto on La n k d e a handspik e i n t o a 4 Having thus determin e d, h e h a d no help for isla nd, Hyde would, or he it, could expect no assistance, be would crawl past the Cocos Islands under all' the vexations and roasting of that purgatory called the middle passage of the great Indian Ocean. I was there last year about the same time that Capt. Hyde would be this year, going up to Galle in g smart sailing vessel (the well-known circle-sailing Constance), in ballast trim, and well-managed, and we were exactly 34 days from entering the tropics to making Point de Galle. And if Capt. Hyde has crippled engines, and nothing but his canvass to depend on, at the season, too, of the north-west monsoon, with that big ship almost coal-laden, we may wish him joy of his voyage, but we shall ashuredly soon hear of him. - " Whatever • may have happened to him or his vessel, let us who have friends on board, and those who are picturing sorrows to thems elves and. others, bear in mind one fact—the One ida is un d e r the charge of as good a sailor as ever trod a dec k , a man of lion heart and cool he ad.
