HEALTH OP LONDON.

It appears from the weekly return of the
Registrar-General that thedeatha in London, which rose to
1,514 in the bast week of July, fell to 1 402 in the first week
of the present month, and again to 1,320 in the week that
ended last Saturday. The average number of deaths in ten
corresponding weeks, viz., the thirty-third in each of the
years 1853-62, is, with the omission of 720 deaths from
cholera in 1854. and a correction for increase of population,
1,r06; and the actual result, as shown in the present
returr., therefore exceeds by 64 the estimated number
for this period of the year. Forty-five fatal cues of
small-pox were returned, which differs little from the
weekly average number since the end of May. The mods-
' lity from the disease is nearly stationary, bat on the whole
shows a tendency to decline. Five out of the 45 cases are
stated to have occurred to persons who had been vaccinated.
There were 118 deaths from scarlatina, and 22 from diph-
theria. Disrrbiea and English cholera were fatal in 209 cum,
of which 190 occurred to children.

Lest week the births of 979 boys and 930 girls, in all 1,909
children, were registered in London. In the ten correspond-
ing weeks of the years 1853.62 the average number (cor-
rected) was 1,806.
At the Royal Observatory. Greenwich, the mean height
of the barometer in the week was 29'851 in. The reading
rose to 30 in. on Sunday, and fell to 2966 in. on Seturday.
The mean temperature of the ►ir in the week was 63'1 deg.,
which is 3'5 deg. above the average of the r ame week in
forty-three years (as determined by Mr. GI Celv r.

DEATH OF THE EXT. DE. RATTLE&

The Rev. Dr. Raffles, who bad Leen for some
months labouring under a severe Weer, expired yesterday
morning at his house in Mason-street, Edgehill, Liverpool
This event has caused a feeling of the greatest regret and
sorrow, not only amongst the members of the denomination
to which the late Dr. Radios immediately belonged, but
amongst the widest circle of religious and scientific people
in Liverpool Dr. Rafifee had sustained the ministry at Great
George-street Independent Chapel for upwards of half a
century, having been appointed in 1812, and eucreeded the
Rev. Thomas Spencer, who, it may be remembered, was
drowned in the Mersey. Dr. Raffles wet not only well
known for his pulpit labours and usefulness, hut also
as an active member of various local scientific so-
cieties, particularly the Royal Institution, hi which
be took the most lively interest until within a
short time of his death. He was educated at Homerton
College, end throughout his whole career not ooly main-
, Jolted the foremost regard for that inetitutiou, but also en.
tared most heartily into all the schemes of theological train-
ing promoted at various times by the congregational body.
latterly Dr. Raffles retired from the Great George-street
Chapel in favour of the Rev. E. Mellor, who now holds the
padorate. The severance of his more active connexion with
Great George-street Chapel was a mums of the greatest
pale to the rev. doctor, for his peculiar amiability end
drat-timide nature bed Godsend him not only to his
cosgregotion, but to all who come within the
radius of his influeoce. Before he was laid
aside by the illness which has proved fatal, Dr.
Raffles occupied himself in preaching in various places
throughout the country, inaugurating new chapels, or at-
tending to the ordination of miuiders, mid in promoting in
every way by his influence the stomas of the denomination
of which he was soldistiuguished a member. Dr. Rattles has
left behind him several literary works not only theological,
but poetical and scientific. He was married early in life to
a deugbter of Mr. J. Hargreaves, of Liverpool ; but Mn.
Raffles br bee, dead for limy years. The eldest son of
Dr. Raffles now oeoupte• the position of stipeodiary roads-
trate of Liverpool, and his other sons are eopged in busi.

was born is 1788, and was consequently in his 75th year.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE FRANKFORT CONGRESS.

THE EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA'S SPEECH.
The following are the chief points of the speech
addressed by the Emperor of Austria to the con-
gress of sovereigns at Frankfort :
Au assembly of Sovereigns of the German nation de-
liberating upon the welfare of the country is an event
which has not occurred for centuries, May our interview,
with the blessing of Providence, become the source of a
future fruitful in blessing.! Confident in the elevated
character of the Confeder►te Princes, trusting in the good
spirit of the German people, and acting upon high and
upright principles, enlightened by experience, I have enter-
tained the deeire to hasten the accomplishment of Federal
reform, and of the regeneration of our common country.

The Emperor then explained hie project, the
chief points of which have been already published.
He then added :

Let us endeavour to come speedily to an understanding
on the details in reason of the incalculable importance of
the whole. Moreover, above all things let us maintain her
place to powerful Prussia.
Let us hope that, with God's blessing, the example
of our union will exercise a victorious influence upon all
German hearts; bat I shall always have the personal
satisfaction of having had constantly in view, at so critical
an epoch, the strengthening of the national bonds which
unite the Germans, endeavouring, at the some time, to
elevate the German Confederation as much as possible, of
which we are a compact body.

LONDON, TILBURY, AND BOUTHEND.

After the termination of our report 3 eaterday,
Mr. EMT read the report of the committee of shareholders,
which was signed by Messrs. Eley, Taylor, and Moxon.
This report complained of the present construc-
tion of the laud, six out of the nine members of
which it stated were members of the Great Eastern
or Blackwell Companies, and represented interests Mimics'
to those of the Tilbury shareholders. That the Great
Eastern Company was interested in preventing the extenaion
of the Tilbury traffic to the north, while the Blackwell had
an interest in preventing the Tilbury system being brought
into coenexion with the North London Railway, so u to
obtain a terminus in London other than that of Feochurch-
street. It then pointed out the prospects of increased traffic,
and the importance of obtaining terminal facilities in connec-
tion with the Ninth London for its development; referring
to the projected Dagenham Docks 55 an important
element in the future prosperity of the railway.
It then referred to the strip!: that might be effected
at the termination of the present lease in the
present excessive tolls and terminal charges, and expressed
the opinion of the committee that as the guarantee of 6
per cent. in addition to the debenture interest was secure
dining the twelve remaining years of the lease, it would be
'inadvisable to accept the offer of 411 per cent. offered by
the Great Eastern sod Blackwell, and no sacrifice la per
cent for that period without soy equivalent.
The report of the committee having been adopted,
A SHLEIZHOLDTH then moved a want of confidence in the
direetera

Mr. Pecs (a member of the committee, wbo was dissen-
tient from the majority) expressed his conviction that a
guarantee from the Great Eastern and Blsckwall Com-
cl;eeswas far preferable to a guarantee from the presentthough he did sot thiok the offer which had bees
made was sufficient. He could not agree is the vote of want
of coulldeoce in the directors.

The CHAIRMAN stated that it was intended to propose to
continue the committee, or to appoint another committee
to act for the shareholders in the protection of their inte-
rests : and he suggested that the meeting should by a
unanimous vote arm such committee with powers to call
upon the directors for the production of the necessary books
and papers to enable them to makes thorough investigation.
The motion of want of confidence was withdrawn, and
alter a discussion u to the legality of the proceedings arising
upon a motion to appoint a committee of investigation, with
power to call for papers sod documents, and to examine the
clerks and somata of the company, • requisition to the
directors to call a special meeting of the company to consider
the subject was adopted and exteuslyely signed.
A vote of thanks to the chairman and Mr. Eley concluded
the meeting.

recently given orders for the oonatraction of two English
carriages, which luxuries are intended for his Majesty and
Queen. They were on Saturday finished. and transmitted
to the London Docks for shipment, and in a few days will
be despatched for their final destication. One carriage is •
very elegant open sociable barouche, having • handsome
canopy, supported by six spiral columns, richly gilt.

her Majesty, viz., deep claret, around which is a laauti-
fully executed bordering of fruit and foliage, p,in . d in

armed Armors, -having a lino by her side ; and on the
other door panel a similar time, accompanied by a large
fish. The wheels and under murkier.. &c., are of a lien car-
mine, and lining and draperies of the canopy of crimson
silk. The other carriage, as the inscription thereon indi-
cates, has been built for the Queen of Dahomey. It is
what is called a seders, or species of brougham. and is got
up in the Same style se the barouchm. Both earriagcs, when

The result of the elections in Prussia has not
bad the effect of convincing the King. In a
public festival which had just taken Once at
Magdeburg, hie Majesty pronounced the following
words :

I feel the crushing weight of the straggle which God
has imposed upon me, but I know also that my duty to

been transmitted to me se a heritage, is to sustain it to the

The members of the Zollverein are to meet in
a general conference at Berlin in • few days to
pronounce on a new customs' tariff, submitted to
them by the Prussian government. That tariff has
been drawn up according to the stipulations of the
Franoo•Prswian treaty of comment) ; its adoption
would involve the definitive adoption of that treaty,
and, as a consequence, the maintenance of the
Zoilverein, just as its rejection would lead to the
non-acceptance of the treaty and the dissolution of
the German customs' union. The deliberations,
therefore, which are about to open at Berlin pre-
sent a considerable interest.

A telegram in the Nord from Berlin says :
" Intelligence has just been received here that the
English note was delivered at Bt. Petersburg on
the 26th of October. The Russian cabinet appears
to be satisfied with it. The diplomatic correspond-
ence with England is regarded at St. Petersburg as
definitively concluded."
The Nord, commenting on the above, says :
" The agreement between France, England, and
Austria may be regarded as broken, and the
common action between these three powers ceases.
Whilst the English government puts an end to the
correspondence opened with Russia upon the affairs
of Poland, the cabinets of Paris and Vienna con-
tinue to consult on the ulterior steps to be taken
jointly in relation to the Russian government."
