TIM IMIAIMIIIMT pe THE THAMES.

The following report was brought up from the finance
comiritteein refer to the embankment of the Thames :

" Your 'honourable board on the 11th of August last
having referred it to your committee to take steps for
raising the funds for carrying out the Thames Embankment
Act, they have been in communication with the comrnis•
sioners of her Majesty's Treasury with reference to the ap-
propriation of the Thames Embankment and Metropolis
Improvement Fund, under the 45th section of the act, and
have received from that department a request to be fur-
nished with an account of all costa, charges, sod
expenses incurred by the board in relation to the act.
Your solicitor has, by direction of your committee, pro-
cured and laid before them the counsel's fees, parlia•
mentery agents' charges, and miscellaneous espouse in-
curred by your hon. beard in connexion with the measure
during its passage through parliament, from which it appears
that so far as at present ascertained, the expenses incurred
amount to 1,61 W. 4s. 4d. Borings and other works for
canying out the act are now in progress, and with a view
to providing for defraying the oast of the same, and meeting
the expenses above referred to, your committee reoom-
mead that a communication be made to the Treasury ap-
prising them of the amount of expenses already incurred,
I and for the purpose of opening an amount at the bank,
that the board do under their seal, in pursuance of the
45th section of the Thames Embaokmeut Act, 1862, request
the commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury to pay over to
them the sum of 20,00 D/. on account."
In answer to Mr. Robinson,
The CHAIRMAN said the Thames Embankment Act autho-
rised an expenditure to be incurred by this hoard, and such
expenses were to b 3 d frayed out of the Thames embank-
ment fund. That expenditure comprised the expenses of
obtaining the act, making borings along the foreshore of the
Thames, and ether expenses, for the purpose of enabling the
board to proceed with vigour in carrying the provisions of
the act into effect.

Mr. Romosoo said he sow by the model before him that
several new streets were proposed is connexion with the
Thames embankment, and he wished to know if those pro-
posed sew streets emanated from this board.
The CHAIRMAN said they formed is portion of the whams
recommended by the royal commissioners, sod since then
emotional by parliament. The model now on the table
showed in its integrity the scheme as it had been approved
by both houses of parliament.
The recommendation of the finance committee was tonal-
melody adopted.

TURIN, Ocr. O.

To induce the Hungarian Legion to leave the
Italian service Austria sent a proclamation grant-
ing pardon to those members of the legion who
should return. General Turr harangued his troops,
and told those who wanted to return home that
they were at liberty to do so. The Hungarians re-
fused to a man, and cheered Turr.

TURIN, Om 10.

The NationaliUs of this evening publishes a letter
from Dr. Ripari, stating that Garibaldi's wound pro-
gresaes favourably. The physician expresses a
hope that the cure will be more complete than was
apprehended.
A proclamation, signed by two Hungarians,
formerly belonging to the Hungarian Legion, was
sent from Verona to Alexandria, with a view to
induce their comrades to return home, Austria
guaranteeing them a free pardon.

General Turr invited those who wished to ac-
cept this proposition to declare themselves and
leave the Italian service.

The Hungarians have, however, rejected it with
scorn.

The Neapolitan Railway Company have an-
nounced that they hope to be able to open a portion
of their line next January.

An explanation of the above paragraph throws a
doubt upon the " definitive " character ofi the
renunciation of the world spoken of. The youth.
ful Queen of Naples has had a quarrel with her
husband; but as the catholic church does not
allow a married woman to become a nun without
her husband's consent, the latter will probably
have a word to say on the subject.

Orchestra now affording such ample scope for a large
audience, it hae been determined to coooentrate all the
amusements this year at that part of the great transept
The naves and transept will be gaily decorated with holly
and evergreens and flags, and venous emblematic devicesap-
propriate to the mum. A feature of novelty will be por-
traits of the various Princes of Wales surrounding the
great transept. At the garden end of the transept, the
large prismatic mirror, designed and manufactured by
Mesas Defriee and Son, which was shown at the Exhibi-
tion, will be brilliantly lighted up. The naves of the
Palace are also completely lighted with handsome new
candelabra, made to a design of the company, founded on
the lights made use of in Paris at therete of the Emperor in
August last. A considerable addition has been made to the
exhibitors' department, by the transference of goods from the
International Exhibition. Among other matters of ieterest,
also, will be the model of the Warrior steam ship, the
Australian gold trophy, and many other interestine object..
The Christmas tree of this year will, it is said, ontatrip all
its preclearance. It will be nearly one hundred feet high,
and will be placed near the tropical screen. It will be
backed up by national flags and banners, conspicuous among
which will be those of the Prince of Wales and the Prin-
cess Alexandra of Denmark. The various fine arta courts
and picture galleries will be supplemented by Magni's
'Woe of the " Reading Girl." This work of art, as
well as fdonti's " Sleep of Sorrow and the Dream of Joy."
will be exhibited at the entrance to the Italian Court, sub-
scription-boxes for the relief of the Lancashire distrees
being placed thereon. Commencing on Boxing-day—which
this year falls on Friday—a daily series of amusements
suitable to the season will be given, under the direction of

ambassador were based had not exactly rendered
his words, because nothing was further from his
thoughts than to wish to weaken the authority of
the ambassador's official, reports."
La France adds that these explanations have
been found satisfactory.
La France also says : "We have reason to
believe that Prince Louis of Hesse has refused the
crown of Greece."

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Mr. Hayward, of Great Portland-street, vendor of photo-
graphs, was summoned for seUiog a spurious copy of a re-
gistered photograph of which Messrs. Southwell Brothers
were the owners.

Mr. Greenwood, for the prosecution, said as this was the
first case under the Amended Copyright Act, he would may
• few words in explanation of the present proceedings.
Formerly there was no protection for photographs, but by
the act 25 and 26 Vic., Rec. 6, a penalty not exceeding 1
was to be imposed on any one who copied sod sold a photo-
graph idter it had been drily registered by the owner. The
plaintiffs bed made •
photograph of Miss Lydia Thompsos,
the actreu, and they had registered this photograph. The
defendant had sold a spurious copy of the photograph, and
this brought himself within the operation of the act.
The defendant said he had no ides the portrait was a
copyright picture. He knew nothing about the purchase
or the sale of the portrait.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—Do you mean to say that you do not know
bow the portrait came into your stock
Defendant—No ;it was bought among other things. I
believe the act of parliament requires that the sale should
have been made " knowingly " on the part of a defendant
that the picture was copyright.
Mr. Tyrwhitt having read the dense of the act, mid the
clause mentioned nothing about " knowingly.• The simple
act of making soak was sufficient. The law was trenchant
on this subject.
The defendant said when it was known that the photo-
graph was a copy, Mrs. Hayward offered to give up all the
copies, about four in number, that remained in stock.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said the case was one of great importance
to photographists. It had been clearly proved, but as the
plaintiff did not press the case, he should reduce the
penalty to 10s. and costs.
A similar cue was then gone into against Mr. Millard,
of lloreetetreet, Messrs. Southwell being the plaintiffs, and
the magistrate, after hearing the evidence, fined the de-
fendant 40e.

LAMBETH.

Mr. Day, a medical vas at-CZ; in Look's-fields, Wal-
worth, applied to Mr. Elliott for his advice and wrist-
once tinder ceenmstaisces, as he considered them, of peculiar
hardship.
Mr. Day maid he brought with him • pence who had the
misfortune of committing a crime, for which he had been
transported, but owing to his good °midget he obtained •
ticket of leave, and returned home three years ago. Boos
after he obtained • situation at a silk merest's, where he
conducted himself with the strictest propriety and hapset',
but in consequence of information having remised his em-
ployer from the police he was discharged. He obtained •
second situation ou the South Eastern Hallway, when his
conduct was unexceptionable, but from similar la-
formation from the polio, he was again discharged.
Aware of the perfect determination of the young seas
to redeem his former character, ad thinking it extremely
bard that be should be preveeted from dohs; so, be
(Hr. Ds) called on the railway authorities, and, is reply to
his inquiries, they admitted that while employed there
they had not the slightest fault to fled with him, and that
the only cause for their discharging the maa was the in-
formation that had been given of his beim a ticket-of-leave
man. He asked them the earns of the pence or parties
who had given the inhematioss, but they refired to give

it, and thus, it appeared, he wu to be hunted clown v
perfect impunity.
Mr. Elliott said the matter was one in which Le cou:.l
not interfere, as it wu more properly within the Noviuce
of Sir Richard Mayne. At the same time be considered it
but fair on the part of the railway authorities to state
the mime of the *rentable who had given them the info,.
elation.

Inspector Dann, who wee in the court ow other busitur.,,
said it was quite contrary to the express direction of tht
commissioners that any officer of police should take oot:ce
of ticket of-leave men in employment, and be should ver,
much doubt whether any officer had done so.
Mr. Day maid there could be no doubt whatever &boat
it ; and
Mr. Elliott repeated that the matter was owe io which
be could not interfere, but recommended an application

HEALTH OP LONDON.

The weekly return issued by authority of the
Registrar-General states that in the week that ended on
Saturday the deaths registered in London were 1,224,
and showed an increase on those of the two previous weeks.
The average number of deaths obtained from the weeks
(in 185261) corresponding with that to which the present
return relates, is, after correction for population. 1,173.
Therefore a rate of mortality prevailed last week that pro-
duced an excess of 51 deaths above the estimated number.
The deaths in the last three weeks were 1,121, 1.181, and
1,224. The mean weekly temperature of the air has been
falling within the same period. It was successively
56.3 deg., 53.9 deg., and 47.4 deg. The births exceeded the
deaths in the same time by 666.
The main feature to be noticed in the returns is the in-
crease of scarlatina. An increase was apparent in the be-
ginning of September. since which time the weekly number
of deaths from scarlatina has not been lower than 75. It
rose last week to 104. The disease appears to be common in
moat puts of the metropolis. The sub-districts may be
specified in which it was moot fatal. St. Mary Paddington
returned 5 deaths from it ; Long-acre, 5 ; Somers-town, 5 ;
Christchurch. Southwark, 4 ; St. James, Bermondsey, 4 ;
and Kennington, fir part, 5. There were also 17 deaths
in the week from diphtheria, which is stated to have been
fatal in four cases in a family in Salisbury-street, Maryle-
bone, in the course of a month.
A spinster, aged 52 years, died of catalepsy. A labourer,
aged 20 years, died in the London Hospital under chloro-
form, donor amputation of the leg.
Last week the births of 990 boys and 900 girls, in all 1,890
children, were registered in Loudon. In the ten cone-
sponding weeks of the yeah 1832-61 the avenge number
(corrected) was 1,835.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)

•
IN RC WHITE.
The bankrupt, a commission agent, of Trinity-lane, sp-
plied for his order of discharge. It appeared that the bank-
rupt had been ordered to pay the costs of the last
sitting, which be bad neglected to do.
His Honour said he should decline to hear the case, the
bankrupt having failed to comply with the order to pay the
arts. This was one of the pauper mass, now so numerous,
wherein the bankrupts bad the benefit of the court for no.
thing, and expected their creditors to pay costs on their
account. The sitting must be adjourned sine die.
Mr. ➢Muds, who appeared for an opposing creditor, asked
for his costs, which were ordered to be paid.
His Honour told the bankrupt that if he did not pay
the costs before the next sitting, his protection would be
withdrawn.
Some discussion arose as to the amount of costs to be
allowed ; and his Honour, after consulting the taxing
master, decided that the attorney's costs for the adjourned
sitting should be lin., and those of the witnesse", 7s. lid-

road and Oxfonl•street ; he had also kept a stall in the
London Crystal Palace Bazaar. This was the sitting for
discharge. Debts, :271. This was another pauper case.
Mr. Bagley opposed, for a creditor, on the ground that
the bankrupt bad incurred debts without reasonable or pro-
bable expectation of payment. He had been sued by
several creditors and had resisted their claims. At the
same time he had incurred a debt of 1121. with Messrs.
Sowerby, and had paid nothing.
The bankrupt, in defence, alleged that Messrs. Sowerby's
good. bad been pressed upon him ; their agent told him that
he would do no more business if be 51101 Ms stall with
goods. He had never been in business before, but
had previously been an assistant with Mews.
Stagg and Mantle. He bad paid everybody as fares hem:mid,
bad been out of a situation for nine mouths, and bad not
been interfered with till he got a situation in the Interna-
tional Bazaar. He then offered Messrs. Sowerby and Co.
D. a week, but they would not take less than 2!., and locked
him up. But for that, he would sooner have swept ► cross-
ing than come to this court.
. . . .

His Honour suspended the order for six months, but gave
protection.

IN RE NOTT.

The bankrupt, a commission agent, of Kensington, ap-
plied fur his final order. Debts 2,0421. ; no assets. He had
been insolvent and bankrupt before.
Mr. Hood appeared for the assignee, who did not oppose.
His Honour adjourned the order of discharge for six
months, on the ground of contracting debts without pro-
Inble expectation of being able to pay them. Protection
would be given for a month, renew►ble, unless cause were
shown to the contrary.

THAMES.

Mary Ann Taylor, a young woman, of No. 3, Frederick-
street, part of that notorious district called Tiger Bay, St.
George's-in-the-Vast, was brought before Mr. Safe, charged
with committing a murderous assault on Margaret
Lovell, who presented herself in the witness box with
her head enveloped in surgical bandages, and as pale
as a spectre. She had lost a large quantity of blood, and
produced the clothes she was wearing at the time she was

The complainant said she lived at No. 6, Frederick-
street, be.ter known as Tiger Bay. Atlo o'clock on Monday
night she wag in her own room, and the pi:soner, some
other girls, and a few Yankee sailors, were there. The pri-
soner, who had had a drop too much, was very quarrelsome,
and struck a girl with her fist. She begged of the prisoner to
leave the room and go to bed. The prisoner, rust -d of
doing so, beat her. A disturbance ensued and she got the
prisoner down stairs and said, "Let us settle this to-
morrow." The prisoner agreed, and it was arranged to
fight out the matter that day. She was leaving tl e
prisoner, who came up stealthily behind her and struck her
several blows on the back of the had with a sharp instr•-
me•t. She fell, and was in "gorse of blood," and was
carried to the London Hospital. When she came back the
prisoner wanted to beat her again, and was prevented.
The Prisoner—Did you not strike me with a jug?
Witnees—No.
The Prisoner—Did you not beat the Yankee sailor with •
poker ?
Witness—No.
Johanna Burke, of Tiger Bay, said that she yaw the pi-
soner seize Margaret Lovell by the hair of the head, beat her
with a jug, and inflict several wounds.
The Prisoner-1 struck her once with it—only once. My
blood was up. It was done in the heat of blood. Three men
' had me down and ware beating me.
Mr. Stlfe said that some very shocking outrages bad been
committed in Brunswick•street and Frederick-street, a dis-
trict known as Tiger Bay, and when such dangerous weapons
as earthenwarejup were used. he should punish with severity.
He sentenced the prisoner to two months' imprisonment end
