He must have been a bold man to have made such a pledge, con sidering the numerous delays which have taken place in the earlier periods of the construction of the bridge, and the sad want of punctuality displayed by all per sons connected with public works at Westminster. The statement or prediction of Mr. Fitzroy will, however, be verified to the letter. Within ten days from the present time, one half of the new bridge will be in a position to be handed over to the First Commissioner, and throw* open for the carriage traffic. But with that peculiar infelicity which attends most of the works undertakes by the government, the approaches to the new bridge will not have been commenced.

SMETHURST. As a good deal of misapprehension prevails with regard to the punishment to which a person convicted of the offence of bigamy is liable, as the law stands at present, it may be as well to state, that before a variety of alterations were made in the criminal code, a pri soner convicted of the offence of bigamy was liable, as the maximum of punishment, to be transported for seven years, with a discretionary power in the court to reduce that punishment to imprisonment and hard labour for two years. An alteration was subsequently made in the law to the extent of abolishing the power of trans portation altogether, but giving the court, in lieu thereof, a discretion to sentence the convicted party to penal servitude for four years, and at the same time giving :3 power to order imprisonment, as in the former case. This statute was again altered, subsequently, and, as ?the law stands at present, any prisoner convicted of Tbigamy, which still ranks as a felony, and entails the loss of goods and chattels, and all the disabilities and liabili ties of a felon, may be sentenced at the discretion of the presiding judge to:be kept in penal servitude for any period not exceeding seven years, or less than three years ; or to be imprisoned, either with or with out hard labour, as the court shall think fit to order, for any period not exceeding two years. There are some legal difficulties in the way of a conviction for the crime of bigamy; and it is also possible that the jury may eorae,to the conclusion that 4 13 r. Smethurst has already been tufficiently. punished; but it is rumoured that if he is acquitted he will endeavour to obtain compensation from the Government for the illegal imprisonment and the sufferings that he has undergone. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE NORTH LONDON RAILWAY. —Late OR Thursday evening a truly deplorable acci dent, arising from the imprudent :practice of passengers attempting to leave the earria,ges while the train is in motion, happened at the Bow station on this line of railway. A Mrs. Mary Brown, of the advanced age of 84, living in the Avenue-road, Bow, was returning home by train on the North London Railway when she met with her death. The train had in due course reached the Bow station, and it would appear that she was not aware of the fact until the train had re-started . for Fenchurch-street, when she jumped up and opened the carriage door sad endeavoured to get out. A porter named Martin called to her to remain in the carriage and close the door, but finding that she disregarded the caution and was persevering . in her efforts to leave, he ran forward to h er w i t h the view either of keeping her in, or if she was too far out to assist her in landing upon the platform. He got hold of her, but by some means he missed his footing, and was, dragged along the edge of the platform to the end under the bridge which carries the Bow-road over the line, where they were both thrown On the permanent way. As soon as the train passed they were picked up, and the old lady was found to have sustained a fearful fracture of the skull. caused either by the step of a carriage or one of the wheels. She was quite dead. The porter had his clothes nearly torn off him, and is stated to be seriously in jured. It is seven years since there was a sixuilar acci dent on the line. The new bridge when completed, will be 85 feet in width, or more than double that of the old one. The portion which will be finished in a few days is 33 feet wide, and will be exclusively devoted to carriage traffic. Foot passengers will continue to pass over a portion of the old bridge until the new one is ready. for them. Two tramways of iron are to be laid down for the heavy traffic. They are 7 feet in width. The trams are formed of iron plates about a foot in width, with a raised flange on one side to keep the carriages from going off the line. Timber sleepers are laid longitudinally, as in the case of the Great Western Railway, upon which the iron plates of the tramway are bolted down. The space between the ways is filled with broken granite. The other portion of the bridge for the lighter traffic is entirely of granite. The roadway rests upon a found- ation four - inches thick of cork and bitumen, which forms an elastic and non-conducting bed between the granite and the ironwork of the bridge. Heavy loads will be drawn over the new bridge with an amount of ease to the horses to which they have been wholly un accustomed in the old steep structure which will be superseded. The gradients of the new bridge are re markably easy, and it is ten feet lower at the crown than, the old one. It will be lighted at night by the new lime light, which is produced by the action of a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen gases upon lime. It is of exceeding brilliancy, and two burners will be amply sufficient to illuminate the whole of the carriage-way. The parapets of the new bridge will be of light and elegant character, formed of open iron work, with a trefoil decoration. Over the abutments on either side of the bridge, which are faced with stone, the parapet will. also be of stone, the iron parapet extending only for so much of the length of the bridge as is constructed of iron. Some of the octagon granite columns on the piers have been placed in their position, and their effect is extremely. good, affording a fine contrast with the light span of the iron arches. The quantities of materials used in the construction of the bridge have been 457,000 cubic feet of timber for the bearing piles, 1,600 tons of cast iron in the foundation, and 2,600 tons in the super structure. The wrought iron in the foundation amounts to 70 tons, and in the superstructure to 1,300 tons. The granite in the piers and abutments is 165,000 cubic feet, of brickwork and Portland cement 21,000 cubic yards, of concrete in Portland cement 30,000 cubic yards. The average number of labourers and workmen daily employed was 285. The precise day for the opening of the bridge has not yet been fixed, nor has any ceremony been arranged for the opening. In the case of the Chelsea Bridge there was no opening ceremony ; her Majesty was the first to pass it, and possibly the same course may be adopted with respect to this new bridge. The proximity to the New Palace at Westminster, however, affords grounds for believing that some public mark of interest will be shown by her Majesty on the occasion. A PALTRY CASE.—The Cheltenham Board of Guar dians are at loggerheads with Mr. Walters, one of their medical officers. lie has charged the " amputation fee" for cutting off a portion of a man's thumb, and the board contend that this is not an " amputation." It was de termined the clerk should write to the Poor-law Board to ask "whether the amputation of the first phalanx of the thumb was such an amputation as was contemplated im f ptohretanlt nteror, nature has 3i M. by the act of parliament, the board considering the same to be only a removal of a portion of the thumb." THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT AND THE FRENCH PREss.—l have reason to believe that, with the view of obviating the effect produced in England by the violent language of a considerable portion of the French p ress , m b I Tl y 1 Ili : a t l i O f n i n i f:l B f t :r ll. o ßillault, to all the prefects of Fr ance. I f lam correctly informed—and I have.reason t o b e li eve that I am—the expresses his regre t that such exaggerated lan guage should be use d w h en speaking of the English peo ple, as well by reason of the disquietude which it must excite among th em , as t h at i t tends to destroy the a been confidential addressedco con fidence and embitter the feelin g s of those of whose opinion th e E ng li sh press i s the channel. The prefects are reminded how much greater that unpleasant effeot must be when this violent language is employed by journals usually supporting the policy of the imperial government, and which is made responsible abroad for these excesses. The prefects are therefore instructed to request the purnals in question to be more circumspect ; and while t ley are at liberty to refute errors and pro test against injustice and calumny, and to defend ener getically the rights of the country, they might easily avoid offending the susceptibilities of a great people, and rather promote friendly relations between the two countries. By pursuing this line of conduct the Minister is of opinion that the dignity of the imperial policy may be reconciled with the interests of the alliunees of France, and the maintenance of peace, and with this view the prefects are invited to use their influence with the_press, and with publie opinion. The prefects are requested to communicate their views on this subject, in ' a confidential manner, to those journals that usualll sup port the government, and not to. interfere with the ethers unl2ss in eases where their exagg ration tends too manifestly to counteract the wishes et the government bn the point.
