HE PROVIDENT SOCIETY OF DANCERS AND TEACHERS OF DANCING. On Saturday a general meeting of the members of this society, instituted in the Midsummer of 1844, for grant ing pensions, pecuniary relief, medical attendance, end medicine to dancers and teachers of dancing on and off the stage, both native and foreign, male and female, was held in the saloon of the Haymarket Theatre, by the kind permission of Benjamin Webster, Esq., for the pur pose of receiving a statement of the receipts and expen diture of the society, to elect members, to elect another chairman (Mr. James Byrne, the present president, having tendered his resignation in consequence of his removal from London), to consider the propriety of taking a benefit at the theatre, or giving a ball in aid of the funds, and to discuss the expediency of adopting Mr. Edgar Webster's proposal of forming a school for dancing, in connexion with the society. Shortly after one o'clock, Mr. James Byrne took the chair. Several members having been elected, the secretary, Mr. James Law, read the minutes of the last meeting, which were confirmed. The CHAIRMAN proceeded to detail some facts con nected with the working of the society, and congratu lated his fellow memb ers u p on th e p ros p erous condition which their institution had attained. He submitted to the meeting an interesting letter he had received from the celebrated Cclarius of Paris, in reply to interrogato ries respecting the rules and regulations of the Acade mie Royale. The Professor promised to commuicate the required information at as early a period as possible, and gave an assurance of his hearty desire to promote by every means in his power the views of English artistes, for whose kindness on the occasion of meeting them he felt deeply grateful. The next subject brought under the consideration of the meeting, was Mr. Edgar Webster's propo sa l for filming a dancing school in connexion with the society. He suggested the establish ment of such an academy under the management of a committee of masters, selected from the members, and two masters at a salary of 1001. per annum each—re commended the adoption of certain rules and regula tions for its conduct, and calculated the income annually at 1,000/, from which, if were deducted about 300/. per annum, for expenditure, a clear profit would accrue to the society of 7001. each year. Mr. Webster further advised the society to offer an annual prize of 101. for the best essay on some subject in connexion with chore. graphic art. After some discussion among thenaembers respecting the propriety of risking the funds in what some termed " a speculative and visionary scheme," particulary as there already existed at the Italian Opera House a danc ing school, it was agreed that Mr. Webster's plan should be printed at his own expense, and circulated among the professors of dancing for their consideration. Mr. E. BYRNE proposed, and Mr. DELFERIER seconded, a vote of thanks to Mr. Webster, for the trouble he had taken, and the talent he displayed in connexion with the subject. The motion was carried unanimously. The SECRETARY read a statement of the accounts, from which it appeared that during the last three months 561. Os. 10d. had been received, and 271. 4s. sd. expended, leaving a balance on the quarter of 25/. Iss. 511. which being added to the fund in the bank, 3801. 2s. 2d., made a total of 4081. 17s. 7d., independent of about 701. due to the society. Mr. JAMES BYRNE, at the special request of the so ciety, consented to discharge: the duties of chairman for another year, his travelling expenses to be defrayed out of the funds of the society. Some other business of a routine character having been transacted, the meeting separated. AMERICAN PROJECT FOR IRISH EMIGRATION. The Belfast Vindicator contains the following : " We are enabled to state, on the authority of private letters from respectable parties in New York, that a plan for enabling the destitute Irish to emigrate, on an extensive scale, from their present wretched habitations to the delightful valley of the Miss'ssipi, is in contem plation in that city. The outlines of the project are these :—A large monied company is to be formed in New York, By this company, ten good ships at the least, will be provided to bring out Irish families, for the purpose of forming a colony in the valley of the Missis sipi. The company will have its own responsible agents both in Leland and America ; it will supply to each family so brought out one hundred acres of land, imple menteof tillag e , an d everyt hi ng necessary for their new condition during the first twelve months. The remune ration from the colony to the company would be by yearly instalments, extending over several years, in order to make the repayment of the expenses incurred easy to the settlers. It is believed that by this means of transit 10,000 souls could be removed from the shores of Ire land to the banks of the Mississippi in a year." DEATH OF MR. HAWKINS, THE VOCALIST.--It iS with deep regret that we announce the death of this talented and much respected musician, which took place at his residence on Saturday morning. Mr. Hawkins had for many years past occupied a distinguished po sition in the musical profession. He was looked up to by his compeers as an artist thoroughly proficient in the science of music. He was member of the choir*, of Westminster Abbey and the Ch a p e l R oya l, an d h as for many years been considered the first alto singer in the metropolis. His death, which was quite unexpected, was caused by internal inflammation. He had but a short time previously been in the enjoyment of excel lent health. Macready has been fulfilling short engagements at Canterbury and Exeter Henry Betty is announced to appear at Canterbury on Thursday next, Jan. 14, in the character of Richard the Third, and afterwards proceeds to Exeter and Devonport, previous to his per forming at the Surrey Theatre on Monday, Feb. 22. SERIOUS ILLNESS OF MR. J. M. MORO IN.—By letters received from Italy, we deeply regret to tied that this gentleman has, in his progress through that penin sula, been impeded by an attack of paralysis at Flo rence. Mr. Morgan has long been honourably known by his benevolent exertions in favour of association upon Christian principles, and his recent visitation will be a cause of earnest sorrow to the many thousands whose sympathy towards himself has been'already excited by his laborious and philanthropic exertions. LORD ELLENDOROUGII.—MY. Lewis, sculptor, of this town, has just completed for Lord Ellenborough a handsome column, intended for erection at Southern, to commemorate the achievements of the British forces in India during the period of his Lordship's government. The material from which it is composed is beautiful Caen stone, and it is needless to add, that the workmanship is faultless. On the several faces of the column the names of the principal heroes of the period are engraved, as well as the various scenes of their daring bravery. The tablet on the top bears the following inscription :—" To the honour of the brave men who, under his government, restored victory to our arms in India, and dictated peace to China under the walls of Nankin, this column record ing their achievements is dedicated, with grateful afThc tion, by Edward Earl of Ellenborough." The public will be admitted to view this interesting work for a short time.— Cheltenham Chronic 'e CA.I.TION TO BUYERS or GREEN PEAS.—(From a Correspondent.) —Persons cannot be too cautious in purchasing green peas ready shelled from hawkers, as they are not really, as represented, an arrival from Hol land, but a small species of our common grey pate dyed with a preparation of verdigris and urine, in which they are partly boiled, to render them a little mellow. This! a few years since, was a famous trade of c)stermongers about this time of year, until their "hot green peas" be came a cold game, a discovery having taken pla a. DEATH OF MISS INVERARITY, THE VOCALIST.— This lady who, it will be recollected, performed some years since at Covent-garden Theatre, died on the eith of December, of consumption, at Newcastle-on-Tyne. Miss Inverarity, who was a native cf Edinburgh, was born in March, 1813, Her uncle was the Scotch poet, Ferguson. At an early age she displayed much taste for music, and her father determined upon having her Instructed in singing. ller improvement was so rapid that in two years she had made great proficiency in the art, and after singing at some few concerts in Edinburgh with great ecl a t, s h e was i ntroduced by her father, 1829, to Sir George S mar t, w h o became her vocal iinn structor. After a course of study she appeared at Co. vent-garden, in December, 1830, as Cinderella, with great success, and in April, 1831, the production of Spohr's opera, " Azor and Zemira," afforded an oppor tunity of improving in public favour. Shortly after the season of 1836, Mr. Martyn, the bass singer, became her husband, and at the expiration of her London engage ment they made a tour of the principal cities of America with profit and reputation. The fine person of Mrs. Mar tyn made her.very attractive in the United States. They then returned to England, after a stay of two years, and finally established themselves as teachers of music in Newcastle on-Tyne, where her decease took place SUDDEN DEATH OF SIR EDWARD EAST., BART.— We regret to announce the sudden decease of Sir Ed ward Hyde East, Bart., at his residence, Sherwood Lodge, Battersea. The deceassd, who was in his 13d year, was one of the members of her Majesty's Privy Council, and Indian assessor. Sir Edward went to town on Thursday, returned apparsstly in his usual health, and retired early to rest, after partaking of a very hearty supper. It had been the deceased's invariable custom to throw open his chamber door at seven o'clock every morning, that the fire might be lighted. At eight ott'selock on Friday morning the door was not open as and usual a receiving the domestics, after knocking for some time and discovered Sir Sir vEe dward lying in bed, dead and cold. expired withouta struggle. The ne cessary information Eastassibieen forwarded to the coroner for Mr. Carter, much beloved by the and of Sir Edward East was to whom he was and hisAliteseraill'be much extremely charitable, EXPENSE OF PuRsuINO graph which appeared Our readers may recollect a ar nIEF TO AMERICA.— in the papers under this heldie° aateout three months the county .q* ago It was agreed, by the magistrates Treasury for Dorset, to memorialise the Lords of ;h o o f y the repayment of a c ons id era b le sum of moue in the capture of a man named Henry America. On Tue s day l ast , at the Quarter Warr, incurred Sessions for the county, the subje c t aga i n came under the notice of the Court, and the followin g answer from the Lords of the Treasury to the application was read:—" Treasury Chambers, Nov. 16, 1846. Sir,—Having l a id b efore the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury your application of the 30th ult., made by direction Of the magistrates respecting the expenses incurred in taking a prisoner named Henry Warr from America, I am directed by their Lordships to acquaint you, for the information of the county magistrates, that my Lords cannot repay the expenses alluded to by you unless such a course is recommended by o her Majesty Secretary of State.—l, have the honour to be your obedient servant, H. TREVELYAN." After some little conversation it was unanimously ordered that a copy of this letter be sent to the Secretary of State, for the purpose of obtaining his sanction to the repayment of the money. THE - SUN, LUNDO N, MONDAY 1110 r N MARYLEBONE VESTRY. THE LORD CHANCELLOR AND TEE SMALL DEBTS BILL. On Saturday a very numerous meeting of the Mary lebone Vestry took place ; Mr. John Williams in the chair. Messrs. Belton, Ratbbone, Cooke, Temple, and several other gentlemen, waited upon the vestry as a deputation from a meeting of the St. Marylebone Parochial Com mittee, held on Thursday last, for the purpose of present ing a memorial calling on the vestry to take immediate steps for preventing, if possible, the plan hid down by her Majesty's Privy Council for dividing the parish of Marylebone ' with other p ar i s h es , f or t h e f ormat i on o f local courts districts. Mr. BELTON said that the meeting, of which the depu tation were the representatives, felt exceedingly disap ponted, after the struggle which the ratepayers of Marylebone had made for many years past for a Local Courts Bill, that the parish of Marylebone had not been formed into a district by itself. Under the plan laid down by the Privy Council the parish was divided in the following manner :—The division proposed was at Glou cester-place, and westward it extended a circuit of ten or twelve miles, taking in Paddington, Willesden, and Twyford. The eastern division of the parish was to be joined with St. Pancras and Bloomsbury, extending from Gloucester-place to Gray's Inn-road. Mr. SODEN wished to know what communication had taken place with the Lord Chancellor ? Mr. FLOOD, the vestry clerk, said he first communi cated with the Lord Chancellor by forwarding to his Lordship the resolution of the vestry on the Ist of Sep tember last. To this he received no answer, and fear ing his letter had miscarried he went to his Lordship's house. The Lord Chancellor was out of town ; and he, in consequence, again wrote to his Lordship, but up to that moment had received no reply.—(Shame.) Mr. NICHOLLY was much surprised at the uncourte• ous behaviour which had been exhibited by so high a functionary as the Lord Chancellor to the vestry. In common civility he ought to have answered the commu nication. Mr. Wlmole then moved that the following memorial be forthwith presented to her Majesty's Privy Council: " To the Right Honourable the Privy Council ,of her Most Gracious Majesty. " The humble memorial of the representative vestry of St. Marylebone in vestry assembled, " Showeth—That your memorialists most respectfully express the regret with which they have found that it is intended to divide the parish of St. Marylebone, and unite it with other parishes for the erection of a local court. They therefore do most earnestly beg that the Right Hon. her Majesty's Privy Council will reconsider such their intention, and give to the parish of St. Mary lebone a local court of its own, which the number of its inhabitants (150,000) and its rental of 850,0002 so justly entitles it to. After a few observations from Mr. VANHEI3IS, in opposition, the resolution was carried with one dis sentient. DEFICIENCY IN THE PAROCHIAL FUNDS TO MEET THE DISTRESS OF THE POOR. Mr. DANIELL brought forward a motion relative to the financial state of the parish. He said he had been induced to bring forward the subject owing to the parish having overdrawn to the amount of 50/. on the poor rate account. This he considered had arisen from the board of directors and guardians having asked for a sum less by 3,0001. than the estimate, which amounted to 4,5001. It was moved that a resolution embodying this state ment be forwarded to the directors of the poor. Sir J. llAminTort said, he thought that the circum stances which led to so large an increase in the expendi ture were such as no human foresight could have antici pated. The prices of provisions had risen in a most un expected degree. In 1846 flour was but 41s. 6d. per sack, now it was 535. 3d. ; cheese in 1846 was 575. per hundred weight, in 1847 it was 625.; oatmeal per cwt. was lls. 6(1., now it is 16s. 9,1.; barley was 13s. 6d.,and now 14i. 3d.; peas, per bushel, were 7s. 6d., now they wars Bs. 6d.; and with regard to potatoes, whilst itilBl6 they were obtained for 755. per ton, they had gradually risen to 1205., and now they were 190 s. per ton.—(Hear, hear.) All this, c( upled with the fact that they had given 9.819 meals to the casual and houseless, and that there was an increase of nearly 3,000 as compared with last year ; or nearly 9,000 in all, he thought showed that the board of directors and guardians were not blameable in the matter.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. WALPOLE EYRE said, the fact was that the workhouse was now so full that they could not let an other person in. After some further observations the resolution was adopted. THE REGENT'S CANAL RAILWAY. Sir P. LAURIE expressed to the vestry his gratification at the course they had ado?ted on the previous Saturday . with respect to the projected Regent's Canal Railway He had communicated with the Secretary of State on the matter, and had received a letter from Mr. Phillips, in forming him that the views of the inhabitants of the Regent's Park were accorded in. —(Hear, hear.) Ho had also received a communication from Mr. Jardine, the mag,is rate, stating that if the railway was carried he must leave the park ; and from the owner of twenty houses, stating if the Regent's Canal Company ob tained their Bill his property would be ruined.— (Hear, hear.) The Royal Botanic Society, as well as the Zyolo,gical Society, had also intimated their inten• tion of offs ring the most determined opposition. The vestry then adjourned. COMPOSITION OF THE CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, — The Chamber of Deputies is composed of 459 members, contains sixty-six lawyers or notaries, seven physicians, I forty-four officers of the army, either on half pay or in active service ; two officers of the navy, in active ser vice ; eighty-two magistrates, fifty-two administrators, thirteen civil engineers, twenty-seven merchants or bankers, eight manufacturers, eight iron -masters, nine ministers, fifteen members of the institute, fifteen matists, and six. literary men, three of whom are chief editors of daily newspapers. The remaining 115 depu ties are mostly landed proprietors. SURRENDER WITHOUT FIGHTING.—M. Marin, a lieutenant in the 15th Regiment of Light Infantry, was lately tried by a court-martial at Oran for having capitu lated in the open country without fighting, an offence punishable with death by the Ist and 2d articles of the Imperial decree of the Ist of May, 1812. M. Marin was sent on the 27th of September, 1843, to conduct from Tlemcen to Ain Temouchen a detachment of 200 men, escorting a convoy of 20,000 ball cartridges; all those men had been discharged from the hospital, and not more than fifty were sufficiently recovered to perform active duty. They were suddenly surrounded by a large body of Arabs, under the command of Abd-el-Bader, and Lieutenant Marin, finding it useless to resist, capitu lated. The accused having been brought to the bar, questioned the competency of the Court, and refused to reply to the questions addressed to him by Colonel Gachot, its president. M. Lebon, his counsel, contended that the charter of 1830 had abolished military commis sions and extraordinary tribunals, and that the decree of 1812, not having been sanctioned by the Legislature, was unconstitutional. The Court having retired to delibe rate, soon afterwards returned, and pronounced itself competent, in virtue of the said decree, and of a decision of the Court of Cassation of the 9th of December, 1829 It accordingly proceeded to examine the witnesses, and the prisoner having persisted in his system of defence, was condemned to death. The sentence was immediately afterwards read to him in presence of the assembhd guard, and Colonel Gachot, moreover, notified to him that he had ceased to be a member of the Legion of Honour. He was then removed to the military prison, where he was to await the decision of the Supreme Court. ALMSHOUSES FOR PRINTERS.—We are gratified to learn that the executors of the late Praed, Esq., have devoted the sum of 50/, from a large sum left by this benevolent individual for charitable purposes, to the objects contemplated by the originators of this institu tion. We are also informed that the committee enter tain the most sanguine expectation of being in a position to lay the foundation-stone of the asylum in a few months; and we can but wish them success in so prah e worthy a design as securing a home for the declining days of their aged fellow-workmen. RISE OF THE THAMES.—I have noticed, for nearly half a century, the gradual and regular rise of the waters of the river Th ames . My attention was first drawn to it by finding that extreme high tides were not preceded, nor succeeded, by similar tides. These were recorded by the watermen of the Westminster Ilorselerry, by notches cut by them on a post there, ere the post was re h moved when the street was raised. I now observe, that professional men in reporting on some localities, such as Westminster, say that the sewers there ware originally too low. But it appears that the said sewers were high enough when they were first made, but are not so now, owing to the rise of the river. It appears that lam the first person who has noticed a circumstance so univer sally, continuously evident. The architects of modern, as well as ancient buildings, were not aware of it, as will be too plainly seen by referring to the floor of West minster Hall, the upper line of the starlings of old London-bridge, the gate of Lambeth Palaee, the York Water-gate, Adelphi, the level of the wharfs there, &c. The ground line or plinth of the palatial houses of Par liament is already below the level of extreme high tides. The difference of the rise of the highest tide before the Parliament Houses were burnt down, to the last highest tide, viz., in December, 1845, is but ten inches. The preceding highest tide was in October, 1841. These two tides were very carefully noticed at the "Fox under the Hill," Adelphi, the people there being up at the late hours both these tides occurred at ; the difference was exactly one inch ; the lines of elevation are painted in the tap room there.—Correspondent of the Builder. A IVIFE 31111MDERED BY HER HUSBAND.—The secluded village of Caldbeck was thrown into a state of great excitement and alarm on Wednesday last, by the — rumour that ►Villiam Stalker had murdered his wife aged about fi fty years, on the p receding rvmeneie at Willie Stall , e • has been f or man y y ears a r es pectable Willie Riddings, where he brought up a largo family, and was about to quit the farm, and keep a grocer's sho p in C a ldb ec k .

Stalker was immediately committed for trial.—Shetfield Iris. PROPOSED METROPOLITAN 131 PROVEMENTS. The following letter contains interesting information a i . o u s It p i r a o t p .r o o s m e posed hmetropol itan reportthe improve mentsm ot r, ith ) w r e a s n p d ec r t a i t l o w v a ar y atal by A I p l r r i d w l a ' s o tt en writtenla j po a teaan Dean, architect; oin i a s n s i d o n i t e r i s s , d a a n t d e l 20, 1846: quenting Smithfield Market in an inquiry before Parlia beenlye n L g o a r g d e s d a a n s d a G g e e n n t t l t e o m t e h n eFg i r a a z i v e i r n s g a s n o d im b e u 3 t . c e h a e r r s s s f n r c e e meat as to the enlarging of the site of the market; hav ing lately been examined by the Commissioners on the Health of Towns and Popu'ous Districts, in which the sewerage of the metropolis and the application of the sewerage to agricultural productions Caine under con sideration; having lately been engaged by the Right Hon. the Speaker of the House of Commons and others to treat with the Commissioners of Woods, Forests, &e., for land to lay into the Victoria Park, involving also the consideration of the formation of new streets; and gene rally having been engaged during the last 50 years in a variety of instances to lay out land for sites of buildings and other improvements, both in town and country, aed knowing generally every part of London and the subur ban parishes, I feel competent to give an opinion upon the matters referred to your consideration as commis sioners, and shall have much satisfaction if my labours shall assist you in the difficult undertaking. It has long been a source of sincere regret to many thinking persons that no general plan for the improve ment of the metropolis has, in modern times, been at tempted ; everything appears to be done by bits and scraps. Inquiries are perpetually going on—commission upon commissions is appointed—the commissioners in quire and report—and there the matter generally ends. There is the Board of Trade—then the Commissioners of Woods, &c.—then the Health of Towns Commissioners —then yourselves—all inquiring into some particular object ; and yet the objects of all relate to the same thing, or nearly so ; to sever their proceedings would be to destroy their value as a whole. Thus, for instance, the inquiry as to the most eligible situation in the metro polis for railway termini necessarily involves the consi deration of street approaches and the sewerage of the district ; then the cost and then the revenue. All these are matters which ought to be considered together as a whole ; not that it may be necessary to carry the whole into execution immediately, or, indeed, for several years to come, still there should be a unity of purpose, a one ness in the plan ; but that plan, I fear, can never bo ef fected until some master-mind takes the lead, and an amalgamation of the several commissions has been brought about. In my humble way, I have ventured to take, as I imagine, a comprehensive view of the accommodation required by the commercial, the manufacturing, the agri cultural, and the aristocratical interests of this great country, in this great metropolis ; and though last, not the least, to the comforts and convenience of our Sove reign, her august consort, and their family, both as re gards railway stations and termini, and the avenues lead ing to them. It has long been a matter of just reproach to us as a nation by foreigners, that the entrance into London from Woolwich, Greenwich, Dover, Brighton, Portsmouth, Southampton, and the other ports on the southern coast, is unworthy of such a people. Commercial men and ma nufacturers, including the dense population of the metro polis, complain that the great thoroughfares are continu ally choked with waggons and carts, conveying goods to and from the existing distant terznini of the severa l rail ways, to and from th warehouses of the merchants, and to and from the docks. The farmers complain that their cattle have so far to be driven to market, after arriving at the railway depot ; and everybody exclaims against the driving of beasts through the streets at mid-day, and the cruelties constantly practised on them, thronged as the streets are with people, eh!) carts, waggons, omni buses, and other carriages, almost to suffocation. Eng lishmen feel ashamed that between the Royal Palace at Pimlico and the Royal Palace at Westminster there should exist so much wretchedness and squalid misery, reaching almost to the Palace door; and although hun• dreds of thousand; of pounds are yearly spent in im proving and embellishing distant parts of the metropolis, Pimlico remains the same—the same filthy, pestilential !elec.! it has ever been in the memory of the oldest man living. Then, there is 'Westminster Abbey, its chief entrance in a corner, on one side, shouldered by houses on the other, bounded by a churchyard paved, or rather only half paved, with g, avestonee, so uneven and so dilapidated as to be dangerous at all times, but especially at night, to persons having business that way; the church an emblem of days gone by, it is imagined exits but to keep company with another barbarous pile on the opposite side of the way, and Westminster bridge, the most costly, the most ugly, the most unsafe in the metropolis, upon which thousands have been, and are yet to be, spent. To widen the way and to lower the ballustrades little less than would build a splendid iron bridge in a far more commodious situation, a situation where, indeed, it would be an ornament to Barry's noble work, and of immense utility in a local and national point of view, and would render unnecessary another bridge contemplated to cross from the Horseferry-road near. Then there is that horrible accumulation of mud and filth between Whitehall-stairs and Blackfriars- bridge. Surely_the day is Rot far distant when the embankment will take place, so well devised by the eminent Walker, and so necessary for the preservation of the health of those inhabiting near, and so necessary also to relieve the streets between the Royal Exchange and 'Westmin ster Hall from the dense crowds always moving between these points, especially when Parliament and the courts are sitting. And now, having gone through the catalogue of miseries, I come to the pleasing task of shoeing how most of them can be remedied, if not obviated altogether, leaving yourselves to decide how successful or otherwise the attempt has been. I have selected for the site of the London general ter minus of all the railways now made, or that may here • after be made, coming to London, the space between the Whitechapel High-street, the new street lately formed leading from Spitaltields church to the docks and the Blackwell Railway, tinted yellow. I have chosen that particular place, firstly, because it is within half a mile of the Royal Exchange, and within the city, and because a great part of the site is in an open waste, and the remainder covered with houses of very moderate value, except those next to Whitechapel High•street and the Minoe ies, which may still remain. I have chosen it, also, because it is the only spot in or near London to which passengers and traffic can be conveyed from every railway on both sides of the Thames, without change of carriage, except the Great Western, which, on account of the guage, cannot, I fear, participate in the benefit. Whether it would be a convenience for the company to make a short line across Old Oak Common, in Acton parish, to the tunnel under Iloneypot-hill, on the Bir mingham line, and there change passengers, cattle, and goods, into carriages suited for the narrow gunge, would Ile for the directors to determine. The tunnel under the Thames may be continued under the lock, which is between the two London docks, and thence, ascending at 1 foot i n 28' f eet f orward, arrives within 10 f et of the surface, at the point of its inter section with the newly-formed street leading from Spital fields church to the d cks. The other end of the tunnel being also continued in the direction of the Croydon Railway, will, at 1 in 30 feet forward, arrive at the sur faced pet a htoi Croydon, gradientadt, Greenwichnthl,leesoelu) • o h e t. i- t blz f Er o af aaio r zdsos South-Eastern, eLahri Railway, its ,rwB, railway and road.wdde eayfet ofr, r) nr:r;aatea:rji junction ws h tn j e octi n ta thence ascending passas with i e t n h d tihl underge 014VtaiyieS, Brick layers' layers' Arms in the Kent. road. That line I would con tinue to the South-Western Railway station at Nine elms, hereinafter more particularly described.

I will here suggest for consideration, whether, if the new cutting were to begin westward of the Kingsland Basin, that basin and wharfs might not be retained for casual purposes in communication with the dock at Limehouse, The new cutting, it will be seen, crosses at the back of the Eastern and Northern and Eastern Counties Rail way station in Shoreditch, and that two curved branches are added, one for ready communication with the pro posed terminus at the Minories and with the railways south of the Thames, and the other with the Birming ham line. The site of the basin in the Regent's Canal which crosses the City Road, with the wharves and warehouses, would furnish ample accommodation for the city traffic, and could not be better situated for that purpose. And here let me remark, that the whole cutting passing through the miserably poor parishes of Shoreditch, Beth nal-green, and Spitalfields, is the worst drained district in or near London. From the point of junction of the railways in the pro posed London terminus, a tram-road might be formed to lead to both the London and St. Katharine's Docks, for conveying goods to and from those docks to the railways, which tram-rood might be raised or carried upon a level to the warehouses, as the parties interested might deem most convenieet. I now return to the Croydon, Dover, and Brighton lines of railway. A sort of temporary railway commences and has been formed between New Cross ti n d the Greenwich Railway, proceeding thence to the Bricklayers' Arms, in the Kent ._ roars. That branch I propose to make permanent on brick arches, and be continued from the - Bricklayers' Arms, to form a junction with the South Western Rail way at Nine Elms. At the junction of the carriage roads leading to all the bridges near to the Obelisk, in St. George's Fields, I propose to form a large station, for both passengers, goods, and cattle, and to continue the Westminster road in a direct line from the Female Orphan A , ylurn to arid along the bottom of the ornamental grounds (.f Lambeth Palace, the residence of his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, thence by a bridge of handsome elevation, in character with the palace, to cross the Thames at a convenient distance southward of the Houses of Parlia- ment and Westminster Abbey, in the direction of Buck ingham Palace, there to. meet Grosvenor-place at its junction with the King's-road; thus adding about five acres of land to the Palace grounds, with an entrance to the offices and the stable yard opposite to the Chelsea road, I propose also to add space in front of the west end of the Abbey, and to form a street in the direction of, and to fall into, the road last mentioned, which road, for • present purposes, I will cell the Qaeeri's-road, reel order to form an outlet from Tuthill -street aed Yerk street into the Queen's volt], I have shown a new lire of street, to lead from the Government Stationety Office, by the wall of the proposed addition to the Palace grounds, to effect that purpose. These improvements, if adopted, would, I iiraeine, render unnecessary, as a public road, the Birdcage Walk which would then probably -be placed under the same regulations, as to the entre, as regulates the roadieg of Constitution Hill. I will not go into any particulars as to the eligibility of the new lines of streets for building parposes—thite belongs to another commission. My object in mention ing them is to show their immediate connexion as ap proaches and outlets to the proposed station and ter minus, and the branch railways connected therewith. For the same reason I will only glance at the space proposed to be added to the entrance courts of the Housk s of Parliament, by the removal of the houses next te Westminster Abbey, and the formation of a wide road from Paldce yard to the Queen's -road, and the proposed Palece bridge. The removal of Westminster-bridge altogether would be a desirable advent at any rate ; the substitution of a chain bridge in its stead would answer all the purposes really required, and would exhibit the elevation of the new Palace and the proposed palace bridge to great ad vantage ; and whenever the parties interested in the property abutting on the Thames shall come forward with a subscription commensurate with the advantages to be derived by them from embanking between West minster-bridge and Blackfriars-b r id ge, t h ey may b e quite sure that Parliament would meet them, on t! e Dart of the public, in a lib era l manner ; and the sooner, then fire, the thing is taken up and dealt with, the better for all parties. ith a new street, formed from the eastern end of the embankment to the Mansion-house, a world of traffic would by that means be taken from the existing tho roughfares, now so thronged as at t i mes to t h reaten the stoppage of all business. Before quitting this part of the subject, I will claim your attention for one moment to another road improve ment cot sequent upon the u s i ng o f a port i on of t h e Regent's Canal for railway purposes that of converting Sir George Ducket's Can a l, which bounds the Victoria Park on the eastern side, into a public road, carrying the same across the marsh land to the stations of the Eastern Counties and Northern and Eastern Railways at Stratford. Such a road would greatly relieve the traffic of the City and White-chapel; and if, from the junction of Sir G. Ducket's Canal with the Regent's Canal, a line of street were to be formed to meet the Betlinal-greeto road, end from the end of that road in Shoreditch an other line of road were to be made to meet the City road a little beyond the turnpike-gate, the drive from the West-eed to the Victoria Park, and thence to the stile ions at Stratford, greatly relieve the thronging of the City, and would add greatly to the public convenience, and alto very considerably enhance the value of the laud in and near to the Victoria Park for building purposes; and, should the proposed site for the London Railway Terminus be adopted, I have no doubt whatever that much of the money paid for houses to be taken down to make the terminus would be laid out in the purchasing and building of other houses in and near to the Victoria Park. The end of the new street, in continuation betweiel Spitalfielde Church and the present terminus of the East I ern Counties Railway, is intended to be carried for ward by the Commissioners of Woods, who will also continue the Commercial Read in a direct line to meet the new line of street in Whitechaeel, now made from Spitelfieles Church to the Docks. One other most material object connected with the pr4esed railway tei minus is the removal of the market from Smithfield, to the site tinted green, lying between the new street last referrtd to and the Coln tnercial road, Cannon -street-road, end the B:atlewell railway ; the houses are smaller and in a worse state than those on the site proposed for the London terminus, and therefore less expensive to clear. That nearly all the cattle coming from the country will be sent by railway to market cannot be doubted, when it is considered, es the feet is, that the cost of driving-, maintenance on the road, and the want of con dition upon arrival, frequently prejudices beasts from ten to fifteen per cent., and snoop from seven to ten per cent.; whereas if a convenient situation for a market close to the terminus can be obtainer, and it is seen at how many places on the lines surrounding London cattle may be delivered at or near to the purchasers, it is impossible to doubt that such a situation would be far preferable to Smithfield, great as the prejudice may be in its favour from old associations. But we live in new times, and he who is not prepared to go along with them is sure to be left behind ; old prejudices must give way to the new order of things ; which leads me to further suggest that the site coloured blue should be purchased and cleared for occasionally stowing away unsold cattle, and for an abattoir for the slaughtering of such beasts, sheep, &c., as the purchasers may feel it their interest to remove in dead meat, instead of driving them through the streets alive. I hare not forgotten that it may also be desirable to provide a dead-meat market instead of the present hutchers' shops in Aldgate and Whitechapel High street, and also a hay and straw market, now most in conveniently held in the open street. For all these pur poses I believe the spaces in question will be found suffi cient; and when it is considered how near to the centre of London the proposed sites are, and the ease with which they may be approached, I doubt if such another could anywhere be found. Nor must it be forgotten that the opening of comma nic3tion for carriages with 'Themes street and Great I'o7;er-street and the %dories, the proposed terminus aril the docks across Tower-hill would be attended with the greatest Lnelit h, comm,rcial intercourse, and would prejudice the interest of no' one. The site of the prcs“ nt Smithfield market would form admirably in:o a dead meat market, and the sheep and pig market would form a general market for all other articles, in substitution for Newgate market, now so cramped for room, and the approaches to which are so narrow and inconvenient as to greatly interfere with persons passing along Newgate-street to and from the city. As regards the sewerage that would be intercepted at the sides of the proposed railway, I propose that a sewer of the first class shall be sunk i n th e m iddl e o f th e rail way space between Kingsland-bridge and the docks, axd thence carriel to the nearest sewer, at a lower level leading to the Thames, unless in the meantime an oppor tunity shall offer for carrying into effect the pletn (le scribed in my evidence before the health of Towns' COlll - for the conveyance of the sewage of the greater part of London into the marshes below Woolwich, for consolidation and sale, and otherwise to be used to pro. mote a gricultural production. When the railway mania has somewhat abated, it-is reasonable to expect that surplus. capital will find vent in air.? improvement of . the soil ; and in no way could it be the same towards the better appli, d than in removing the sewage of towns and , and enormously increasing a nn't n g d whether the prod! e od, which to require, is sure always to be in demand at prices pp be r P ( u populationir uloct a ute i iseed( v iii sso s iofsrirnfrtoens r egulated As regards the sewerage of Pimlico, so much needed, particularly in the neighbourhood of the palace, the direction of the proposed Queen's road would materially facilitate that object ; whether the sewerage be carried to the Thain,.s direct, or to reservoirs, to meet the ob jects of the sewage company, w h ose Bill i s now before Parliament, roust depend upon c i rcumstances ; but, at g .eater imprevement can be mad e in Pim lico than that of th orou g h drainage. all events, Adverting once more to the proposed cutting through Bethnal green, Spitalfields,and AA t, ; , 1 ; it ; ..'...teenapei, is inn— possible the ne ignbourhood of the proposed line, from possible to conceive the amount of disease and wretch ednessnerally among the poor weavers and the inhabitants ge the miserable state of their dwellings and want of stifii ' eient draining.

The RECORDER having chargt d the grand jury, they retired, and shortly afterwards returned four bills, and were discharged. VIOLENT ASSAULT.— Thomas and Elizabeth Scott were indicted for assaulting Catharine Scott on the sth of Novemhzr last. The prosecutrix and the defendants lived in the same house, and it appeared that there had been a general fight, in which all the inhabitants of the house took part except the husband of the prosecutrix and the male defendant. The jury found Elizabeth Scott Guilty, and Acquitted the male prisoner. The Ric ;nnxn said it appeared that one party was as bad as the other; there was great violence on each side, and the husbands were the only persons in the house who did not take part in the feud. The rule of law was, that if a man kept anything unruly or danger ous. he was bound to control it. lie should therefore require the husband of each party to become answer ab!e for their wives keeping the peace, in the sum of 401. each. No judgment was given. Mr. CLARKSON applied to the Court under the follow ing circumstances :—ln January two persons, named Ann Robinson and Joseph Smith, were conviet,d, on their own confession, of having kept a disorderly hous butjugdment was respited, the defendants being bound over to appear and receive judgment when called upon, but it was the understanding that they would not be so called on if they abated the nuisance ; they had, how ever, opened another house, which had beam complaived of as a nuisance; and the vestry clerk had served them with notice .to appear and receive judgment this day, but on being served they laughed at the vestry clerk. The RECORDER said the notice was, that the Court would be moved to give judgment, and if the defea.dantg did not appear the Court would be called upon to estreat the recognizances. That wav no notice to appear, at least only an argumentative one. Mr. CisaasoN—lt is a common sense, notice, my Lord. RECORDER—Yes, but it is not a common sense law notice; they must be served again. Mr. CLARICSON—If they were lawyers enough to know the difference, I am not surprised at their laughing. POLICE INTELLIGENCE, MANSION-HOUSE. Adolphus Stone, a well-dressed associate of thieves, and, Jaques Voisin, were brought before the Lord Mayor upon the charge of having robbed Messrs. Dodd, jewellers, of No. 78, Cornhill, of a diamond pin of the value of 8/. Mr. Francis Dodd stated that the prisoners walked into his shop at half-past four o'clock on Friday, and asked to look at some breast pins. The tray, which was in the window, was placed before them, and on it were arran ge d four brilliant pins together, amongst other pins. St one took up a mourning pin, h anded it to Voison, and asked the price, and afterwards asked the price of other pins; one of the brilliant pins, which was worth 8/., suddenly disappeared. The prisoners asked witness at what hoar he closed the shop, and upon being told at half-past seven, consulted together, and said that they would call again, and turned round and left the shop. The witness put on his hat, rang the bell for his brother, and fol loned the prisoners. The reason he did not attempt to secure them in the shop was, that he apprehended his property and his person might, in the struggle with two able men, sustain damage of a serious kind, there being nobody in the shop besides the persons already named, except a boy behind the counter, who could have rendered but slight assistance in such a case. He saw the pri soners in Gracechurch-street, talking to another man, and spoke to a policeman, who took the hint. He then himself, seized the two prisoners, and told the officer to secure their companion. Voisin broke from his grasp and ran away, but was afterwards secured. The com panion of the prisoner escaped. The LORD MAYOR —Did they purchase anything? Mr. Dodd—Nothing. The LORD MAYOR—Had they about them money to purchase articles of such value as you describe? Mr. Dodd—Certainly not. I understand they had only three or four shillings between them, a pawnbroker's ticket for a shirt; marked a shilling, and a pocket-book. Mr. Robinson, a solicitor, attended for the prisoners, and ceosa-examined Mr. Dodd, but the effect was that the case was made more strong against them. Hub gin, a policeman, said he saw the two prisoners in Gracechurch-street talking to a third person, whom he knee; to be one of the swell mob, before Mr. Dodd called to him, and had been watching the three. He had seen Stone sat hour before in Gracechurch-street. Voisin made a aright resistance. Haydon, a policeman, said he had very little doubt that evidence could bo produced from the west-end of the town To establish the guilt of the prisoners in similar robberies which had lately taken place there. The prisoners, ahe observed a profound silence, were then remanded till Saturday. Richard Addis v, ho will discharged from the city police 1, rive on the previous Saturday, was re-examined on a chetree of having defrauded the city of London of a sum of money as expenses, for travelling to and from Cheltepham, to bring a witnes in a case which was tried at the Central Criminal Court. It appeared that the prisoner„ after the trial, applied at the office of Mr. Clarke, the clerk of the arraigns, and received the sum of 31. 2'se 6d., he being really entitled to no more than hat, '-a-crown, his statement as to travelling by rail way to Cheltenham and back being all fudge. The p risoner was commiced for trial. BOW-STREET. Thomms . _Russel Walk r, a very gentlemanly-looking young nts n, was charged before Mr. Henry with an as sault on k r. Richard Gale, of 26, Carey street, Lincoln's Inn. The catnp!ainent stated that at about half-past twelve o'clock tb at morning he was going home with his wife, and was irery nearly opposite his own door, when he saw ner and anutrer man on the opposite side. There wa s no other person near them. Tte prisoner called out. to his (complainant's) wife, in an insulting manner. He ran towards the prisoner, and asked him what he :meant by such an insinuation ? He and his friend rats away, and turned down Grange -court. Com plainant at his wife then turned to go home, but the prisoner a ; Cain return d, followed by his friend, and running at him, gave him a blow which cut his temple. He then gave him another which cut his 1:13, and knocked down. A policeman came up and he gave the prism te. r in charge. Mrs. G 31:e corroborated this statement. Her husband was not cpt , te sober, but she was. T 1.4 oner said that he did not strike the com plainant. IF any one had strurd: him, it must have been his (prism st T's) friend. The latter was in attendance. Mr. Ch at lea Price, of 16, Clement's Inn-passage, said, that he ri.s passing through Carey-street, with his friend, an d being "in humour fur what is vulgarly termer' a lark,'" and seeing the complainant and his wife on tho other side, called nut tu her. The prisoner certainly tt.lno called out. The complainant then ran across the Toad, and he, witness, put out . his fist to receive hi at The complain an t runn i ng t ow ards him knocked h is head a,gaiest witness's hand, end fell by the force of th e concussion. Complainant was very tip.y Mr. HI- 3My said, that the evVeace of the prison' 's witness w a not snfficiently satisfactory to justify him in rejecting t 'tat of the complainant's. lie was of opinic n that the blow was struck by the prisoner. He would take into-:account the fact that the c..:mplainant was not perfectly.zsober at the time. and he would only fine him ' l , or irr. 'default, sentence him to one months' imprison- Iff complainant had been sober, he would Lave inf tinted the full penalty of 51. The L sate was immediately paid, MA RLBORIJUGH-STREET. Franc v William Schultz, remand: from this c curt last tiati x - .lay on a charge of stealirg 7701, partly in Bank agland notes, from the University Lite Assur ance Com p my, was brought up nub for re-examination before . [Jong, - Mr. NV ill iek, secretary and m::.nsger to the company, cross-ex: irelned, said he went out with his wife about half-past tyae o'clock on Christmas-day, and was absent for an h. mr and a half, and when he returned the pri soner, whe mho left in the house, was gone. He was led to disc( vet- the money was missing by the loss of some silver from a drawer, whence it had been abstracted m en t. duritg his absence. Charles _ Henry Spratt, clerk to Messrs,. Drummond and Co., pr wed the numberS and dates of the notes given to the Lice Assurance Cinitpnny's &erk on the 24th _ December, Ind said he had rice.ived .one 501. note, three 101. notes, ax d fiirty : six M. notes from chief constable Reid, which: r ho had found cn the prisoner, and they all y a p ipn n!)rn'' „ .IL 1 .,72 1, iA Henry Gi!lard, messenger to the Life Assurance Company, said the secretary's bell rang on Christmas day, about one o'clock, and the prisoner gave him the key of the safe below stairs, and in Mr. Williek's name ordered him to bring up the large tin box, as Mr. Wil lick wanted something out of it He said i.e did so lin rnediately, and left. it in Air. \V flick's room. The bell rung again two or three time-, but he did not attend to it, as it was Christmas. day, and he was at his dinner. This clo , ed the casa for the prosecution. Mr. Clarkson, who appeared for the prisoner, said he did not think it necessary ihen to snake any defence, or to offer any r. mark on the case Mr. Loam finally committed the prisoner to take his trial at the Central Criminal Court., CLEIiKENWEn. Henry Allen, who had La en charged last Saturday, with so violently assaulting a lad named Bloom, as to place his life in'imnainent danger, and remanded to this day, on account of the inability of the prosecutor to leave the hospital, was again placed at the bar, before Mr. Greenwood, for final examination. Mr. Fenton, the treasurer, and Mr. Williams, one of the most active of the managing committee of the pa rochial schools of St. Sepulchre, to which the prosecutor was attached, were in attendance to watch the case ;' the latter gentleman saying he had a charge to prefer against the constable in whose bands the ease was, of having been guilty of a gross breach of duty. Mr; Greenwood having suggested the propriety of disposing of the case at present before the Court, the lad Bloom, who was so far recovered from the injuries he had received as to be able to leave the hospital last night, was sworn, and detailed the facts of the assault,. the main points of which have been already given. Police-constable G 243, stated that he was called about nine o'clock to take the prisoner into icustody a few minutes after the commission of the assault, but as he knew him well, and observed that at that time Bloom seemed not to have received any serious injury, he (the constable) suggested to Mr. Bloom, sen., that it would be wrong to lock the prisoner up upon such a trifling charge, and allowed him to go away.. When, however, he heard that :he lad was so unwell as to render it ne cessary that he should be conveyed to the hospital, he went in search of the prisoner and arrested him about one o'clock on the following morning. He considered that he was doing his duty when he refused to take charge of Allen by the direction of Mr. Bloom, because he knew where he cquld be found at any moment. \ Mr. Williams said the constable had, in the above statement, given all the facts upon which he (Mr. Wil liams) purposed founding his charge. He thought it a very gross dereliction of duty on - the part of the consta • ble to allow a person who had committed so serious an assault upon a mere child like the prosecutor as to en danger his life, to be at liberty for a period sufficiently long to enable him to make his escape. Mr. GREENWOOD said the policeman had been only put into the box that moment as a witness, and it would be most unfair to him now to call upon him to meet a charge like the present at a moment's notice. The course he (Mr. Greenwood) would suggest would be for the boy's lather, or some other party taking an interest in the case, either to apply to the Commissioners of Police, who would grant, an order for investigating the charge against the constable before the magistrate, or for those parties to apply for a warrant or summons against him, which he (Mr. Greenwood) would have no hesitation in granting. Mr. Williams said he should decidedly adopt either one or the otter of the courses suggested by the magis trate. . The prisoner was fully committed to take his trial at the sessions. CAUTION TO 13ILLIARD-ROO3l KEEPERS. Henry Ilamson, a beer-shop keeper, in Little Warner -street, Clerkervivell, was charged with keeping his house open for the sale of beer after twelve o'clock at night. . An inspector and sergeant of the G division, proved finding, between twelve and one o'clock on Tuesday morning, a number of individuals in the defendant's house smoking, drinking, and playing billiards. The defendant, in his defence, handed in both his beer license and his billiard license, the former of which allowed him to keep open only until twelve o'clock, while the latter gave him until one o'clock, and he Stated that none of the company had been supplied with beer after twelve o'clock. Mr. GREENWOOD (the magistrate) said he was sur prised to see such a contradiction in the licenses, but the law regulating beer, shops was elear enough. The license deprived them of an authority to suffer malt liquor to be drank or consumed on their premises after twelve o'clock, and for the defendant to allow beer or ale in the billiard-room after that hour would be an in fringement of the law, and, if not stopped, would open a wide field for much abuse. As, however, he believed the defendant had offended through ignorance, he would only inflict a penalty of ss. and costs. WORSHIP-STREE7'. It may be still fresh in the recollection of our readers that a few days since, a silk manufacturer, named, Sharp, of White Lion-street, Spitalfields appeared on a summons, at the instance of Walter Forrest, an indi vidual in Mr. Sharp's employ, he (Mr. Sharp) having refused to pay Forrest 65., alleged to be due to the latter on certain work done, as also other work completed. After having entered into the particulars of the case, the Magistrate directed Fitzgerald, a warrant and intel ligent officer of the court, to call on Mr. Grove, now of the - Spread Eagle Tavern, Kingsland-road, but who had formerly been in the silk trade, and subsequentl) an officer of Worship-street Police-court, and who, in con sequence thereof, had been. repeatedly applied to for his judgment in the settlement of disputes touching silk cases. Mr. Grove at once accompanied the officer, and on the former carefully examining the work in dispute, he said that he could scarcely believe that it bad bet- n completed by one men, the commencement of the work having been so admirably well done, and the last sixteen yards so badly that, had he been Mr. Sharp, he would have stopped 9d. for each of the sixteen yards so &imaged. Forrest, on hearing the decision of Mr. Grove, at once accepted the proposals held out to him, and all appeared satisfied with the result. Mr. BROUGHTON expressed his approbation of the manner in which the affair had been arranged, and said that the trade generally owed Mr. Grove a great debt of gratitude for his willingness at all times to act as a me diator in adjusting the disputes so frequently arising, as they did in the silk and velvet trade in Spitalfields. HAMMERSMITH. ALLEGED INEFFICIENCY OF THE POLICE.—On Satur day two men of the names of John Peisley and William Southend, both known to the police as suspicious cha racters, were brought before Mr. G. Clive, the sitting magistrate, charged with stealing a sovereign under the following circumstances : The case was first gone into on Thursday last, when it appeared that on the previous night a lad of the name of Stephen Parker was sent by his master, Mr. Goodwin, confectioner, in King-street, Hammersmith, to the Jolly Gardeners' public•house, close by, to obtain change for a sovereign for a customer who was waiting. The lad put the sovereign on the ledge of the bar window, and in drawing his hand from it pulled the coin - with it, which fell down and rolled into the passage, where the two prisoners and another man were standing. Before Parker could ohertake it, the prisoner Peisley picked it up and handed it to Southend, and he pa see it to the third man, who was at the door. The sovereign was never afterwards seen. Mr. Goodwin, the master of the lad, then asked Mr. Clive to allow him . to state what he knew about the affair, and having received tee magistrate's permission, he stated as follows I came up and found police-con stable 195 T there. I said I wish to give the prisoner Peisley in charge, but he replied, Wait a bit, some' one else will be here presently.' In about five er six minutes police-consteble T 66 came up. I did not speak to him ; but during the time he was speaking to T 195, Sergeant Mount. T 29, came up and said, What is the matter ?' I said, We have lost a sovereign, and we cannot find it. Three men were standing there at the time it was dropped, and one.of th em h as go t it, an d w ill not give it up.' Mount said, I don't know what t) do in it.' I said I wished to give them in eharge. He said, have they got the money in their possession ? I told him I could not answer for that. Mount then said it was not like a theft, becatise the boy dropped it. If it had been taken out of his hand, or knocked out, we could take them up for robbery. Before 66 T and Mount came up, the two prisoners offered to be searched. T 195 said to them, we are not in a hurry ; stop until some one else comes up. When, however, 66 T came up and Sergeant Mount, they did not enter the house, and the prisoners were mot searched." Mr. CLIVE upon hearing that statement ordered the three officers above-named to be sent for, and remanded the prisoners. At a later period of the sitting, Mount T 29, Graves T 195, and the third constable attended, and had Mr. Goodwin's statement read over to them, when they denied that any wish had been expressed that they should take any of the men into custody. Saturday, on the prisoners being again put to the bar, policeman Lowe, information ,whheo had d s r t e h c e ei c v a e s d e h i e n ah h o a ad n l d, deposed that, from be able if the prisoners were again remanded, to pro duce a witness who saw the sovereign passed to the third man by the prisoner Southend. Mr. CLIVE, in remanding the prisoners again to Wed nesday next, said the police, if not prepared to under take a little responsibility in such a case, were not at al fit for the duty they had to perferm. Their conduct in the matter was, however, a question for the considera tion of their superiors, and he, therefore, did not think it necessary to make any remark on the charge sheet. He would, however, on Wednesday, consider what he should do in that respect. THE 211SII MAGISTRACY.—A communication from John 0' rien, Esq , M.P., states that the Lord-Lieu tenant has appoint(d William Geary, M.D.; E. F. G. Ryan, and Martin Honan, Esqrs., to be magistrates of the city of Limerick. A 11013 BER .SHOT.—Linden House, near Welling. ton, the residence of Major Thomas, has been repeatedly attacked by midnight robbers within the last three months, and on Friday night, about half-past twelve o'clock, the servant was aroused by distinctly hearing the noisl occasioned by an attempt to break into the back part of the premises. Having alarmed her master, he proce4d,d with his gun to the front door, witli the view of intercepting the villains, but on opening. the hall door was surprised to find two fellows under the portico. The Major instantly struck down one of them with his fist, and the rascal, on attempting to recover, received another blow, which a second time prostrated him. The other scoundrel ran off, but before pr'tceeding beyond the range of the gun, the Major fired and lodged a charge of sm a ll s h ot i n t h e l ower part of the villain's back. The robbers are brothers, of bad repute, and live at Row -green, a place long notorious as the rendezvous of the most protlizate and dangerous characters. War rants are out against the two, and also against some others, who, it is ascertained, were associated on the spot for this midnight outrage, so intrepidly defeated by the worthy Major.— Taunton Courier. 3.IARK LT NE WS - -(SITt zza ' ih; Pine Apples, 5s Gd to 7s • Hot-house Grapes, 4s to 6s.per" Dessert Apples, 6s to is per half-sieve ; Kitchen (II 4s to 6s per bushel; Oranges, .8s to 14s; and Lemens!,': to 16s per 100; English Filberts, 95s to 100 s per 100: Cabbages 8d to Is 6d; Red ditto, 2s to 4s ; per (10,7; Potatoes, 5s to 9s per cwt ; Horse-radish, 2s to 4s per builw; Turnips, 2s 31 to 4,; s.ul Ca, rots, 4s 61 to 7s per bunches; Ceb-ry, 2s to 2s 9d per bunole; Onions, 5s 10 per bushel; Mushrooms, Is 3d to 2s per pottle.
