REALM OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Report of the Registrar-General.) The deaths registered in London, which in the first week of February rose to 1,368, have continuously de oreased since that time, and in the week that ended last Saturday were 1,175. In the ten years 1847-56 the average number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,160. For the purpose of compa rison this average must be raised proportionally to in crease of population ; in which case it will become 1,276, and it wili appear that the public health is at pre , sent so far good that the deaths last week were less by 100 than the number that would have occurred if the average rate of mortality had ruled. The mortality from diseases of the zymotic order was last week unusually low, for the deaths referred to these did not exceed 171, while the corrected average for cor responding weeks is 244. Small-pnx was fatal in only 2 cases, both of which were those of young children, and occurred in Clerkenwell ; and it may be stated that London enjoyed almost complete immunity from this . distemper or from its fatal attacks. Whether it le the result of causes that are temporary in their ope ration or otherwise, it is probable, considering the greatly increased population, that small-rx has never been less prevalent, or more subdued in its character, than at the present time. Measles in toe previous six weeks averaged 27 deaths weekly ; the number fell lasst week to 10. Twenty-two children died of scarattina, a number which shows a decrease also in this com plaint. The deaths from typhus declined to 26, and those from diarrhoea to 12. The most fatal complaint in the zymotic class was hooping-cough, which carried Oil 70 children. The deaths eau.ed by diseases of the organs of respiration, which in the previous week were 304, declined last week to 262, of which 136 were from bronchitis, and 100 from pneumonia. Two deaths are recorded as caused by privation ; 2 by intemperance. Six persons are returned who had attaine,' the age of 90 or more yearn ; and in this number is a pensioner in the Royal Hospital at Chelsea, whose age is stated to have been 100 years. Last week the hirths of 970 toys and 888 girls, in all 1,858 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1847-56 the average number was 1,649. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 30122 in, The mean reading of this instrument was above 30 in. daily during the last ten days of February, and the first five of the present month. The highest reading last week was 30 , 43 in. and occurred on Sunday (the Ist instant). 'The mean temperature of the week was 43.1 degree, and was 2 . 9 degrees above the average di the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisheli. The highest temperature in the week. occurred on Sunday, and was 55 deg. ; the lowest oc curred on Thursday, and was 29.5 deg. The range of the week was therefore 25.5 deg. The mean dew-point temperature was 37.9 deg., and the difference between. this and the mean temperature of the air was 5.2 deg. The wind which blew on the first two days from the' east was afterwards generally in the west. There wass no appreciable amount of rain. The horizontal move-- , went of the air varied from 10 miles a day to 150.

STA.mptai 5v the t-xtensiOn of the parliamentiry term-to seven years necessary having ceased to exist, theextended term ought again to be shortened. By r dnc ng 'he duration of Parliamentsto three yet re, the risk of the "abuse of Parliamentary power would 1 e m.tterially diminishe-i. There are several reason for fixing upon three years as the term to 4 be 'substi , u . ei for -se4en. The legal duration of Parqament at the - time when it was extended. by a 'Coup d'etat seven , y ars was three years. Many rood poc,p e are startled at the idea of a more frequent recurrence of general elections would_otim p ,und fat three years. There is some weight in, o.h of these-reasens, but there is far more weight in a third which we aro nom about to state. The clanger of annual Paitliaments is that so frt.quent a recurrence of election struggles would - weary and disgust the greater part of the public, and that e'ections would consequently become mere matters of form, or would be left to the management of a few' interested busybodies.• Three years would, give any body of men comparatively' few opportu nities of doing 'lasting, mischief, and would • suffi ciently reveal the character of dishonest membersto insure their dismissal. . -- The evil consequences_ of conferring upon mem bers of Parliament too long a lease of power must be particularly obvious to the reflecting at the pre sent moment. 4 great proportion of the electors seem bent upon giving'their votes for no other pur pose than to express t their predilection for an indi vidual.

ALLEGED MIIRDEIL. Maria Isabella Becket, aged 66, was indicted for the wilful murder of Jane Bowden, on the 30th of e. la•t. Mr. Wroth waQ-couwel for the prosecution ; Mr. Power and Mr. Mil appeared for the prisoner. The prisoner is a re , pect , ,ble-looking, old raily, who at the time of th.toccurrence out of which this charge arose was lodging at Wing with her son-in law, Mr. Bowden. Near to their house lived Mrs. Becket, the wife of the prisoner's son, and it ap peared shit on the 30th of Dec. the old lady paid the latter a morning call. Mrs. Becket weicomed her relative warmly, saying, "Oh, mother, you have not been here since the alterations." To this the prisoner, whose eyes glared wildly, replied with a sad and solemn voice, "Yes, I am come, but not °ma p'.easant errand, for I am come to kill you. I must do it for I am mad," and muttered some thing about her having been sent by the devil, who had given her a razor ; at the same time she pro duced a raz.,r from her pocket, and seized Mrs. Becket's arm. A. scream and struggle ensued, during which the old lady said, " Oh 1 I must do it ;" but a second scream stimmoned to the aid. of M_Ls..,Becaret. whotiya 0 fire advanced in: Drelnanev. subdued and apparently pacified. After a while she said she was better,,And wentoway, -saying she could go alone. Altherigh Mre itgoket had ob served indications of a f4iliug- intellect in her mother-in-him since her husband's death two years ago, neither she nor her friend accompanied the prisoner. On her return home she found the de ceased, a child only 10 weeks old, sleeping in a cradle rocked by an elder sister five years old. Mrs. Bowden was upstairs, and immediately after the return of the prisoner she heard a shriek from the girl, and on rushing down discovered to her horror the o'd lady, with the babe on her lap, deli berately engaged in the act of cuttingits throat with a knife. The injuries inflicted onthe child caused death in a few minutes, as her distracted mother rushed out of the house with it in her arms. When taxed with the murder the old lady said, "I was forced to kl.l the baby in order that it might go to heaven." Both Ms. Becket and Mrs. Bowden agreed in at tributing this dreadful act to the impulses of in sanity, and described the conduct of the prisoner for some time past as that of one labouring under a delusion, struggling with invisible spirits as it were, and whose intellect , was failing. The medical min whl hid known her for several years spoke of her as hypoch ird.ria,cal at times, and deposedthat, in his opinion, the prisoner was of unsound mind at the time in quest . on. She answered all his ques tions rationally enough, and had always taken to the child more than to her other grandchildren. On one occasion the prisoner said to Mrs. Bowcteu, she wi-hed some one would kill her if he would not be hangrd for it, and iegretted that it was a sin to kill herself, and often expressed the fear that she should die in a workhouse, though her cir cumstances were amply sufficient for one of her class of life. Mr. Power having addreissed the jury, urging that his unfortunate client was eutit!ed to an ac quittal on the ground of insanity. The Chief Baron left it to them to say whether they were satisfied by the evidence that the pri soner at the time she took away the life of her Igrandchild was in a state of insanity, so as not to render her criminally responsible for that horrible Betting-7 to 4on Polish, who won by three lengths; bad third.

A. most capital boat-race was rowed yesterday after noon between two scullars of whom much has been said of late, named Palmer and Adcock. The distance was frern Putney to Mi,r,lake, for a stake of 20/., to which was added a tolerably large amount in bets, the money having been laid out mainly at evens, from the known equality of the men. Prchminaries having been satis factorily arranged the men took their stations at Putney bridge, at about an hour before high water. The start was very rapid and gnod, Adcock exhibiting a trifle the beet of it, and then succeeded a most animated and gal lant struggle. The men were soon scull and scull, and almost in this position they continued until nearing Craven, where Palmer showed a slight advantage, but his opponent rowed with such thorough game, th it it took a great deal of labour to shake him off. Palmer, however, succeeded in effecting this, gradually increas ing his trifling lead to half a dozen lengths, by which he ultimately won, after a severe pull all the way. MARKET NEW - ( 1..u16 y ay.) CORN EXCHANGE. Only a limited supply of English wheat was on sale in to-day's market. For most kinds we had a slow inquiry, yet Monday's prices were supported. The general quality of the samples was inferior. The imports of foreign wheat this week are only 3,090 quarters. The transactions were wholly confined to im mediate wants, but without leading to any change in value. Floating cargoes of grain were held at full currencies. There was a good demand for barley, and the finest malt, at previous quotations. act. The jury at once returned a verdict of Not Guilty on the ground of insanity. THE ALLEGED MURDER AT CHESHAM. The grand jury threw out the bill in this case, which was expected to have occupied the entire day to-morrow. Oats - were in full average supply, and heavy request, at barely last week's currency. Both beans and pease were firm. Flour, however, met a dull inquiry. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. I Malt. I 1,210 560 1,120 HOME CIRCITIT.—MAIDSTONE, MARCH 10. CIVIL SIDE.

The plaintiff in this action, it appeared, was a grocer at Herne-hill, near Canterbury, .and the de fendant was stated to be a person of property re siding with his mother in the same neighbourhood at a short di , tante from the plaintiff. The young woman who was the unfortunate subject of the in quiry was about 28 years old, and the defendant was stated to be considerably on the wrong side of 40. It appeared that the intimacy first commenced between them about three years back, and that it continued unt 1 the beginning of the last year, when the plaintiff's daughter proved in the family way, and she gave birth to a child that was still surviving, iu the following month of June. The, defendant, it appeared, was then applied to, but he denied that there had been any improper intimacy between him and the plaintiff's daughter, and as serted that the child was not his, and the present action was the result. 'Die daughter of the plaintiff, a very gcod-looking young woman, was examined, and she dei ailed th• cireumil ai•ces under which the intimacy arose be tween her and the defendant. She was s b . t d u _lee .-, to a very severe cross-examination by Mr. Clhban_ hers, and shy stated in answer to questions put t her by the learned counsel that the defendant firm a-costed her as she was re .uruing from church ' anc that she conversed with him for some time, an( that an awignation was mad e b e t ween t h em' the defendant told her that wh en h e " anyte her" he would wave hispocket-haudictrchiefwrfor' tier window.

(Front the Daily News.) Seven years is the sixth part of the average (lure , ton of human life in England. Before a man can become an elector ho must have c •mpleted his 21st year. On au average, then, no elector can calcu late upon exercising his right of suffrage more than three times in his life under a system of Septennial Parliaments. In the course of less than seven years Louis Philippe was driven from his throne, the republic which succeeded. himoverturned by the coup d'etat, and Napoleon 111., as a principal party to the war against Russia, recognised . as one of the arbiters of the destinies of Europe. Seven years is necessarily an important part of the life of the indiiidual ; it may be an important pad of the life of a nation—of a system of nations. These facts ought to be present to the mind of every elector when ho gives his vote at the impend ing general election. Ho and his fellow-electors are, in fact, entrusting the fortunes of the country to some GOO individuals for seven years—for a period of a length that has ere now proved sufficient to uproot a dynasty, and change thetwbole character of a national government. A bare majority of that six hundred, by acting steadily in concert, may bid defiance to every wish either of the Crown or the people, to put an end to their lease of delegated power. For seven long years they may with im punity uphold a corrupt or oppressive Administra tion, and legislate for the exclusive advantage of their caste, their families, and themselves. It is madness in any people to tempt the virtue of a small number of their fellow-citizens by invest ing them with such powers to promote selfish s taster interests for such a lengthened period. Mischief may be done in the lapse of .seven years that can never he undone. The l eople may be goaded to madness by the persistence of a faction in misgovernment and iniquitous legislation, and civil commotion provoked, before which our best and most venerated institutiens may crumble away. The first Septennial Parliament• was at once the consequence awl the instrument of a coup d'etat. A parliament voted the prolongation of its own ex istence in older to give security to that dynasty whose right to the crown rests exclusively upon a parliamentary title. The importance of the object to be attained, no ono at this time of day will deny. Whether such an extreme 'measure required to be resorted to for its attainment, or whether under any circutnstances it be allowable to do evil that goud may come, may be questioned. But it is certain that the state of things which was alleged to render MI T 1 BOARD 0? WORKS. A special meeting of the Mrtnpolitan Board of Winks was held yesterday ►n the Council Chamber, Gui Mr J Thwaites in the chair. IMPORTANT REGULATIONS AS TO THE FORMATION OT NEW STREETS IN THE METROPOLIS.
