rumodred that preparations are about to be made to

Mr. Orb.—The widow of the demised wishes that jos-

said I looked m if I waisted the motley myself.
The complaisant stepped up in the I/thug-boa, In a very

lordship.
The Lord Mayor—No ; I shall not hear a speech upon the
subject. The cam is discharged, and the cabman shall not
have the menses returned to him on account of his in.
volume.

TM cabman then retired amidst laughter.
Mr. Nathon, an inhabitant of the district of St. James's,
Duke's-place, objected to pay the church rate of 6s.
The Lord Mayor—Why do you refuse to pay the rats ?
Mr. Nathan—l dispute the validity of the rate, believing
that the chsraltwerdene have so power to make a rate.
The Lard Ms or—Are you aware that your refusal,
whisk 1 shall be obliged to certify, will lead to considerable
expense in the trial of the question ?
Mr. Nathan—l am.

The objection was then duly entered.
Sir R. W. Carden said he had received a communication,
Into the correctness of which he had made inquiries, ex-
posing a plan of deception systematically carried out, of
which many poor but respectable females were the victims.
Advertisements, it was stated, appeared in the Tinges,'
offering employment to the amount of from one to two
guineas weekly on payment of 211. for instruction, which
was to be given by pest. AU seemed fair enough even
after the money was paid, till the time for giving the em-
ployment drew near, when the advertiser began only to
write at iatervals, and no employment could in the ma be
obtained, to the great loss en the part of applicants of both
money and time, the correspondence being protracted ae
long as possible for the purpose of deferring the guaran-
teed employment. The chief sufferers were ladies in the
eountry, who answered the advertisements in the hope of
adding to their too often scanty income, and who from a
similarity of the name were probably led tl believe that the,
eanouneements were issued by parties connected with a re-
spectable and well-known metropolitan firm. Sir R. Car-
don's correspondent stated that a threat made by her to ex-
pose the matter in the public journals had latterly °sued •
change in the mode of advertising, as might be ems by
the copies of recant advertisements accompanying her ens
vezaketion.

DOMINO 111: TIM 1/11031 LOOAL WARD or MIMI:

LIABILITY TO

Mr. Jude Coleridge said the question in this eau, which
Wee ene of general importance, wee, whether occupiers of
NM *his to be assessed by load boards of health
i 4 terra pessiene, where the premises derived no hams-
iiiebe bomb rem the works in respect to which the rate
Mal bees lapeeed. The question depended on the oea-
eleselfes to be en the 86th, 88th, and 89th entices
of the Path _pleeeds Health Act of 1848. The court looking at
that aet,:was of opinion that though the promisee
remind as immediate benefit from the works in
n of which they had been assessed, that fa
left did net iavalidate the rate of the district, of which the
resew formed part, and received • benefit. If the court
came to say other conclusion it would lead to great inm-
ost/ewe, for there must be en inquiry on every rate whether
each pardeular premises which had been cased were
benefited by the works done. Though the premises might
nosing no direst or immediate improvement, the owner or
secupier might restive • benefit indirectly even in • PlP-
ouniary point of view. The 86th section of the act of 1848
provide/ for the imposition of the rate, and enacted that the
espouses in 'Eakins; and altering sewers might be provided
for by the rate. The 88th section rendered all property
rateable to the relief of the poor, assessable to the rates both
special and general under this act, and there wes a provision
for enforcing them even fn. parts of the district in
which there was no poor rate. Another proviso in-
dicated the property which might be rated, such
ea woodlands, market gardens, towing paths, canals,
railways, and provided that these were not to be
erased on the whole, but on one-fourth of their annual
vales. Now this proviso was an answer to the arguments
far the appellants, that premises were not liable where they
received no immediate benefit, for railways wed canals,
would eaten/ se far as to receive no benefit from the works,
and yet they were declared to be liable. The 89th section
contained' • proviso, by which it was enacted that the local
Board of Health should divide the district and make separate
assessments for the divisions so made. It had been urged
for the appellants that this power was not discretionary but
compulsory. The court thought that the thing to be done
here was seateely of such a nature as to be anything but
discretionary, sad they saw no reason for saying that
the respondents had done wrong in abstaining from doing
so. On a review of the whole !acts of the case and the sec-
tions of the art of parliament, the court was of opinion that
judgment must be given for the respondenn.
Judgment accordingly.

"Private John Lyons, of the Grenadier company
of my regiment, performed a daring and gallant act
in the Quarry work which our fellows took from the

from a battery near the Round Tower struck the
ground short of the work, and thence, by ricochet,
alighted on the parapet. From the parapet it rolled
down to the inner side, among a group of men who
were lying under its cover—some belonged to the
Rifle Brigade, Nome to the 19th Regiment. There
was seemingly no escape. The fuze was burning and
hissing with that peculiar rushing noise which few
can hear close to them without some degree of alarm.
It win what is commonly called a live shell; that
is, a shell ready to scatter death and destruction on all
around. A few moments, and the faze would communi-
cate with the bursting discharge, the shell would be

fall victims from its fragments. 'My God ! we're all
