The protracted inquiry into the death of Richard
Gibson, a pauper in St. Giles's workhouse, whose
neglected state was brought to the notice of thechief
magistrate, at Bow-street, by another pauper, wu
brought to a clog. on Thursday. As the result of all
the evidence that was tendered the jury returned a
verdict that the death of the pauper was accelerated by
the neglect of all the officials in the workhouse, and
recommending to the Poor-law Board that the diet of
sick paupers should be inc-eased, and that the ward
in the workhouse in which Gibson died should be closed
as improper for the reception of sick paupers.
Tint CITY HORGLARIZS.—Some inure of the jewellery

The police, acting upon a hint conveyed to them, raised
a portion of the brick flooring in the bakehouse attached I
to the pie-shop in Whitechapel, which two of the I

wrapped is an old rag between £BO sod £9O worth of
rings, brooches, &c, which have been identified as the I
property of Mr. Walker. That gentleman has now
reoovered about £1,700 worth of his stolen property.
Captain Mosse,superintendent of the New Gymnasium
at Essex station, undertook On Tuesday to walk from '
London to Colchester, • measured distance of 52 miles,
in 12 hours. He failed by seven minutes. This is
amounted for by the fact that on the journey he ran
back half-a-mile for • watch he had left at an inn.
" HE'LL =vita IST ?Re Times ON FlRE."—Many
years ago, before machinery was introduced into flour
mills for the purpose of sifting the flour, it was the
custom of the miller to send it home ungifted. The
process of sifting was done thus ; but principally in
Yorkshire. The " temse," or sieve, which was pro-
vided with a rim which projected from the bottom of
it, was worked over the mouth of the barrel into which
the flour or meal was sifted. An active fellow, who
worked hard, not unfreenently set the rim of the
"teinse" on fire by force of friction against the rim of
the flour-barrel ; so that, in fact, thin department of
domestia employment became I standard by which to
test a man's will or capacity to work hard : and thus
of a lazy fellow, or one deficient in strength, it was
said, "Me will never set the tomes on fire." The long
misuse of the word tense for sieve, as well as the
suspending of hand labour by machinery in this parti-
cular species of work, may possibly have tended to the
substitution of sound for sense, in such phrases as "He
will never set the Thames on fire," the Mersey on fire,
or any other river. Ido not recollect having seen any
notice of this phrase in "N. and Q.," and should be
glad to know whether it is familiar to ninny persons.—
P., Burslem, Staffordshire.—Notes and Queries.
A FASTIDIOUS MURDIDIEB.—D. L. Hiving, who, it
will be remembered, some time ago murdered his
father, mother, and wife at Woodstock, Michigan, takes
exception to the sale of photographs of himself by a
business man at Hudson, because, as he alleges, they
were taken over a year age, with his uniform on, and
do not resemble him now. He publishes a card, as
follows:—" Adrian' Michigan, Feb. 28, 1865.—Editor
Cleveland Plaindealer, Please announce in your
paper that the photographs taken and being sold by D.
H. Spencer, Hudson, Mich., are not genuine ones, as
they were taken with my uniform on, and do not
resemble me now; but there will be some immediately
before the public that are genuine ones, and taken with
my clothes on at the time the deed was done, and such
as wish to purchase will do well to wait and obtain the
Fenuine.—D. L Bivins." The Detroit Tribune says he
ts in the habit of circulating among the crowds who visit
his cell cards containing the name, as follows "1). L
Hiving, the Murderer."
A CHINZSZ WILDDING.—On the suspicions day itself,
I hastened to witness the lady leave her mother's home,
about seven o'clock in the evening. She WM in the
little room, to which her earliest association had been
confined, surrounded by women and matrons (her
mother among them) weeping and wailing. She had
trimmed herself, powdered her face, rouged her lips,
masked her robes, and, as she could afford them, dis-
played her finest jewels. Had she been too poor to have
jewellery by her, she could readily have supplied herself
for the time at the nearest pawnbroker's. At last the
bridal chair was at the door, with chair-bearers and
musicians. A. concourse of spectators stood outside,
eager, if not impatient, to catch a glimpse of the am-
niotic, alias "the new woman." After the procession
was duly arranged, the bride was carried out of her
room, as if vi et armis, by her brothers, and she was
placed in her nuptial sedan seemingly in a helpless con-
dition. When carried out of her father's house, she
was lifted over a pan of lighted charcoal. This precau-
tion was explained as necessary to prevent the lady
carrying with her all the good fortunes of the family
That is one interpretation, but there may be others
equally absurd. The chair was capacious and elegant.
The bride sat within, arrayed in a cloak fringed with
tiny tinkling belts, and on her head she wore a sin-
gularly-shaped hats with a veil of beads, &a., that
almost completely covered her face. Every symbol of
gaiety was exhibited, identified with their notions of a
wedding occasion, when, according to their phraseology,
"the phoenixes sing in harmony," and compatible with
the bridegroom's finances. The whole retinue hurried
on along winding streets lined with staring spectators,
preceded by men and boys with torches and crackers.
By this time a marenger had announced that the lady
was approaching, and all was astir at the bridegroom's,
where the gates were opened to receive the gaudy
, banners, pink umbrellas, red boxes, and other pieces of
baggage, which heralded the bride. Presently the
chair-bearers rushed in. Three heavy crackers intimated
that the bridal sedan had actually come. This convey-
ance was attended by four bridesmaids on foot, in black
I dresses and with pink sashes; but they were old
women! A. singularly-dressed mistress of ceremonies
came out to accost the young bride. As she stepped out of
her chair, a horse-saddle was laid on the floor, over
which she had to stride. Her four maids supported
the lady in passing into the inner apartments. Here
she met the bridegroom, who, by the way, had to be
searched for and led out for introduction to his future
oompanion,—a farce sometimes played at • Chinese
wedding, as if to denote extreme modesty or timidity
on the part of the husband in entering on his new
responsibilities. The oonple on meeting knelt down and
paid their religious devoirs to "Heaven." Next, a
document with the marriage contract was publicly and
distinctly read. Worship was then paid at the ances-
tral tablets of the hnsband's family. After this, the
pair were conducted into the bridal chamber, which
immediately was crowded with friends and visitors.
Here standing side by side, two cups of wine-syrup
joined by a scarlet thread were exchanged between the
couple. This part of the ceremony was concluded by
what is called sahehung, or throwing a plateful of
various fruits, berries, and confections among the
crowds of spectators, who were eager to pick up all
what they could. On this the bridegroom " came out
of his chamber rejoicing." The bride was detained
within to be unveiled and to change her upper dress,
which by this time must have become excessively
cumbersome. As usual, that evening closed with feast-
ing—men and women in separate apartments. The
feast concluded at a very late hour, and we left the
nuptial pair to their honeymoon.—Oar Own Fireside.
It was to prevent certain injurious customs that the
Parliamentary Committee on Food adulterations was
appointed; there is one custom, however, of an
especially injurious character still in force, for English
merchants continue to direct the Chinese to cover tea
with colour, purposely to enable the inferior brown
leaves to be passed off with the best. Green tea, if kept
perfectly pure, is a dark olive, and pure black is not in-
tensely dark. lioniiman & Co., London, have long re-
pudiated the injurious custom of colouring tea; their
import', from the absence of the usual mineral coating,
command universal preference as being both wholesome
and eoonoiniLaL Obtainable only in packets as imita-
tiona abound, see that " Horniman & Co., Original Im-
porters of the pure tea" is on each. Agents—chemists,
confectioners and booksellers—are appointed in every
town; a list for this locality is to be found in these
columns.

MORDIFft DT A STEPSON.—A man named Abraham
Lung, carrying on business as • butcher at Green-street,
corner of Hope Chapel Hill, Clifton, met his death on
Saturday night at the hands of his stepson, a youth
about 12 years of age, named Thomas Anstey. Shortly
after 11 o'clock, it seems that Ass-hey was engaged in
hanging up some meat in his stepfather's shop, and was
told that he was not doing it properly. He took no
notice of what was said to him, when Long told him
that if he did not hang the meat properly he would
'budge him. On Long proceeding to carry his threat
into execution the boy seized a poker, and his step-
father had to defend himself with • pair of tongs from
being attacked. Ultimately both parties put down
theme weapons, and Long went into • room at the back
of the shop, but was followed by the boy, who had
caught a long butcher's knife, with which he stabbed
Long in the abdomen. The wound inflicted was a very
formidable one, and penetrated the liver. Means.
Barretti and Crichton, surgeons, were at once called in,
but their skill was unavailing, and the unfortunate man
died shortly after three o'clock on Sunday morning.
STORY AND 1.088 OF DPI OW FBI EAST COABT.—
A meet terrific storm (says the Northers Daily Express)
set in from the north-east about one o'clock on Sunday
morning. The wind, which had been increasing in
violence since one, appeared to have reached its climax,
and then it came down in gnats, sleet and snow falling
heavily, and accompanied with lightning. Soon after
dawn a vessel was seen about five or six miles off, in
the midst of a heavy sea, without either masts or sails;
fishermen ran to the cliffs expecting every moment to
see her go to the bottom. Anticipating their date, the
lifeboat was immediately got out, and oonveyed along
the sands, when it was quickly launched and pulled
podrcsigh the raging surf towards the vessel, and after a
pull of a mile, and near to the buoy, they succeeded
nt'resehing her, taking on board the crew, three men

Without pilot) kept on her way, and was soon amid the
breakers and fast aground. The vessel is the Kate, of

with coals, the previous morning. The captain reports
that about two o'clock on Sunday morning, when •

GRISAT BANK ROBBEBY.—NesrIy R 50,00010 st and
specie has just been stolen from the Central k of
Western India, Hong-Kong. The affair was massaged
during Saturday and Sunday by means of • tunnel,
which had been dug between a drain and the door of the
bank treasury vault, • distance of 60 feet. A Bag was
raised up, and entrance to the vault obtained. Some
arrests have been made at Ma.olo. The polioe of Roug-
hens apprehended between twenty and thirty men on
suspicion. One of them admitted his guilt, and gave ep
the names of eight Chinamen who were engaged with
him in the robbery. His statements, with other
evidence, have led to the taking into custody of the
bank oomprador, two 'brats, and two coolies. An in-
spection of the premises shows that it must have taken
some weeks to plan and carry out the robbery.
TiS LATE FATAL BOAT AOOIDISNT NAAR MUTH.—
On Wednesday morning two of the bodies of the young
cadets drowned by the upsetting of the boat belonging
to the Worcester training ship, in Halfway Reach, were
found some mile' higher up the river, nearer towards
town. One of the bodies, that of Errington Ord Denten,
whose relatives reside at Hartlepool, was picked up at
Deptford, and taken ashore there. The other, that of
James Waller, whose friends live in Hertfordshire, was
found near Blackwell Point, off the entrance to the
Victoria Docks, and was landed on the Essex side of the
river. The remains have been in the water the long
period of 32 days, the accident having happened on the
28th of February. There are seven more bodies of the
unfortunate youths to he east up. In order to spars
the feelings of the relatives, and to avoid several in-
quiries into the same facts, arrangements have been
made for the reception of the remains of the poor boys
at Rrith, in the vicinity of the school ship, as they ars
found.

Fans Csfunonics.—The following memorial to the
Bishop of Ripon has been prepared for signature :
"1. That by the common law of England, the bishop,
as ordinary, has full authority over all the seats in the
parish church, and of the seating of the parishioners
therein. 2. That ever sine* the establishment of the
Church of England until • oomparatively late period,
this authority was always exercised by the bishop's
officers, the churchwardens, allowing all parishioners—
rich and poor alike—to use the area without any allot-
ment of or payment for seats. 3. That the law of the
land and the Church is still precisely the same as it
always has been, but that the principle of such law has
been of late violated by assigning pews of their own to
selected families, thereby keeping out the remainder.
4. That this exclusion of the people at large from the
public means of grace is one main cause of spiritual
destitution, of Sabbath breaking, and all ungodliness.
5. That it is manifestly impossible to deal effectually
with spiritual destitution without giving up this mis-
chievous modern principle and practise of establishing
a kind of property in the House of God, and restoring
the ancient freedom of worship, especially in new
churches. Your memorialists therefore humbly pray
that your lordship, as ordinary, will refuse your assent
to any plan of expending the funds now raised for
church extension upon any church in which all or any
of the seats are assigned to a minority of the church-
going—or who ought to be church-going—parishioners."
A BATCH OF YOUTHFUL BURGLAH3.-SINOULLH
ROBBHBY.-At the Manchester police-court, on Thurs-
day, three youths, named Pellet, Stafford, and Harpur,
were charged with breaking and entering the dwelling-
hotise of Mr. Gibbs, a eoachbuilder, and stealing four
sovereigns, a watch, a suit of clothes, and other articles.
The pro.scutor stated that on Tuesday morning be
found that his bed-room had been entered, his desk
broken open, and • bag containing four sovereigns, •
thousand farthings, and a large number of fourpenny
and threepenny pieces taken away. Charles Mont-
gomery, the prosecutor's grandson, a boy about ten or
eleven years of age, made a singular statement, to the
effect that the prisoners, whom he had previously
known, were enabled to carry out the robbery by his
direction and assistance. He met them in • field,
where the robbery was arranged, and in the evening he
led them to the house. They got through abed-room
window' which had been left unfastened, and then ran-
sacked the desk, which they forced open. They then
removed the valuables above-mentioned, the prisoners
allowing the little boy, Montgomery, to have two
sovereigns for his services, and dividing the rest of the
spoil amongst themselves. Supposing that they had
not the whole of the booty after leaving the Louse,
they returned to it again, and made a sisoond search.
In the evening they all went to the theatre, and next
day the boy Montgomery treated himself and three or
four other boys to a trip to Warwick races, where they
spent about 10s. between them. On the prisoners
being apprehended they were searched, and the greater
portion of the property was found in their possession.
One had provided hmiself wild a pistol and other things
out of the stolen money. The prisoners were committed
for trial. _

THI SHIFFIILD GABOTTZ ROBBIST.-011 Thursday,
three men, Carr, Hall, and Smith, charged with a most
brutal garotte robbery on Mr. Burnby at Sheffield, In
December last, were placed on their trial at the Leeds
assizes, before Mr. Justice Willes. From the reports of
the affair which have already appeared, it may be re-
membered that the prisoners Hall and Can had marked
out the prosecutor for robbery, having ascertained that
he was in the habit of carrying to his residence in the
Victoria-road, Sheffield. a considerable sum of money—
varying from £lOO to £2oo—every evening in a satchel
strapped to his body. On the evening of the robbery,
by an extraordinary coincidence, Mr. Burnby did not
carry home the money as usual, a breakage in the strap
of the satchel obliging him to leave it and its oontenta
at his place of business in Sheffield. Accordiegly when
they attacked him and rendered him insensible they
found no more than £2 or £3 upon him, which they
carried off, as also • silver watch and gold pin. Great
violence had been used in the robbery, the thieves
making a liberal use of a " knuckleduster," striking
Mr. Hamby over the head and under the ribs, as well
as throttling him, until he became unconscious. For
Dome time after the affair he lay at his own house in a
very dangerous state, and has not yet quite recovered
from the violenoe of his brutal assailants. Smith was
believed to be the third man whom Mr. Hamby had
noticed keeping watch, while the others were attacking
him. There was considerable delay in the capture of
Carr and Hall, especially the latter, who had aonus
singular escapes from the police before he was at last
taken at the termination of • long chase and a desperate
fight. A watchmaker named Cooper, who appears to
have been mixed up with several suspicions affairs, was
the chief witness against the prisoners. The jury
found Carr and Hall guilty of the robbery, and Smith
of receiving the goods, knowing them to have bees
stolen. Previous convictions against all the prisoners
having been proved, Carr was sentenced to pen*/
servitude for life, Hall for 20 years, and Smith for five
years.
PALMEREMONIAN BISHOPS.—"FsOntIe IBS for inters
rupting you, my dear lord," said Diakiefiekl, "bat rho
present government are not so particular about the
political as the theological views of their bishops.
Palmerston especially has very decided opinions oa
certain moot points of theology, and is fully impressed
with the tremendous spiritual responsibility, if I may
use the expresdon, which his position imposes upon him.
When you remember that the Prime Minister of this
country is held morally accountable for the orthodoxy
of its religions tenets, you must at once perceive how
essential it is, not only that he should be profoundly
versed in points of Scnptural doctrine himself, bat that
he should never appoint a bishop of whose soundness he
is not from personal knowledge thoroughly satisfied."
" I have no objection to talk over the more disputed
points with him," said the bishop; "when do you think
be could spare a moment?" "The beet plan would be,"
rEplied Dickiefield, with • twinkle in the eye, "to catch
him in the lobby of the Haase some evening when there
is nothing particular going on ; what books of reference
would you require?" The bishop named one, when I
interrupted him, for I felt Dickiefield bad not put the
case fairly as regarded Palmerston. "It is not Pshaes•
ston's fault at all," said ; "he is the most libaraltitso-
