mons, who have bad under their consideration the question
of the amalgamation of the Eastern Counties sad other
companies since the seesios commenced, received the report
of Captain Gelton, to whom the various matters in dispute
had been referred, and announced, after duly considering
the same, their determination that the companies (i. e. the
&stern Counties, Norfolk, Eaetern Union, and Newmarket
lines) should be amalgamated on the complete fusion of
stooks, opals the basis of the agreement of IdM, and that
the differesoe and Said charges in the respective companies
should be adjusted by the creation of preference stock, to be
allocated to the Fasten Counties and Norfolk Companies in

PRUSSL&.

BERLIN, MAT 7, 1 P.Y.
The telegrams received here up to this hour con-
cerning the elections in the provinces show that the
greater part of the persons elected, consisting partly
of former representatives and partly of fresh can-
didates, belong to the progressist party.
The catholic party, as well as the moderate con-
' stitutional party under the leadership of Herr von
Grabow, have lost several votes. The ultracon-
servative party has at least not gained any votes.
Among the present moderate constitutional nota-
bilities Baron Vincke and M. Simeon have not yet
been re-elected. M. von der Hcydt, Minister of
Finance, unsuccessfully contested the representa-
tion of the town of Elberfeld, his old electoral dis-
trict, the two successful candidates being M. Alfred
Auorawald and M. Kane.

Up to the present no change has taken place
with regard to the present ministers. Count
Schwerin is the only one of the former ministry
who has been re-elected.

BERLIN, MAT 7, Erenack.

Information from well-informed sources states
that the Prussian Diet will not meet until the
19th inst. . . _ . .

All the telegrams from the provinces received up
to this afternoon confirm the results of the election
to the Lower House already stated. The election of
Herr von Vincke and the former minister Herr
von Patow is announced.

AUSTRIA.

In the Lower House of the Reichsrath to-day

WNi~r and Common Jury.)

This court sat this morning for the purpose of disposing
of cases which there was no time to try during the period
allotted for the second Middlesex sittings in term. The
matters which came before the court, however, were of no
public interest. _ _

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—DiAT 7.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
IN BS LUILIRLADZN.
The bankrupt was a wholesale jeweller, of North-build-
ings, Finsbury. Debts, 1,7001. ; assets dependent on the
realisation of consignmerata.
Mr. S. Solomon, for the majors" asked for an adjourn-
ment, in order that the accounts might be thoroughly in-
vestigated by an accountant, and that the result of the con-
'lemmata might be ascertained.
Mr. Sidney appeared for creditors ; and Mr. C. E. Lewis
for the bankrupt.
Adjourned till the 25th of June.
(Before Mr. Roche, Registrar.)
Ile RE JOHN MHICLAII.—" HEIKLAIeB BONDS."
The bankrupt was described as of Bryanstonaquare, and
of Walton Villas, Brompton, and late a prisoner for debt.
He came to the court on his own petition, and filed a state-
ment of account showing debts of upearda of 19,0001.
These were due chiefly on bills of 2001. or 3001. and upwards,
and in some cases on bonds.
lire bankrupt, it appears, ban large expectations under
the will of his father, who has bequeathed him property in
Scotland worth 30,0001. a year ; but he cannot come into
possession until he is 30 years of age. Meantime the annual
receipts are accumulating in the hands of tiustees, and the
bankrupt has resorted to the practios of issuing bills, or
bonds, known as " Meiklam's bonds," which have circulated
amongst those who knew his position, but in some cum at
an alarming discount, one creditor having bought up
those documents to the extent of 5,0001. for about
2001. At the foot of the list of his creditors
of debts, the bankrupt made the following statement :—" I
may be liable on other bonds and bills, which should have
been returned to me by Mr. 11/111411013, of Ampthillequare,
the particulars of which I am unable to obtain from him."
A gentleman now asked that the petition should be dis-
missed, on the ground that the statement of account was
not " full and accurate," as required by the act.
The bankrupt was examined. He stated that he hail
given bills for 5,0001. to Mr. Isaacson, in return for bills and
hoods for 25,0001., and 99/. in money. He bad done this at
the time when he was in the Bench, and had acted under
the advice of Mr. Chidley.
Mr. Chielley—And very sound advice too. You thereby
reduced your liabilities from 25,000 f. to 5,0001.
The Registrar (after consulting Mr. Commissioner Hol-
royd) said that as the bankrupt appeared to have used his
best endeavours to trace the bills that were out against him,
and to give a statement of account as accurate as he could,
it was not a cue in which the petition would be dimissW
on that ground.
Several proofs were admitted, end Mr. A. G. Pooley,
merchant, of Ricbes-oourt, Lime-street, was chosen trade

THE LIIDGATF,HLLL TRAGEDY.

After our report left Guildhall yesterday,
William Smith said he was a porter to Mr. Vyse, and had
been employed by him and his father 28 years. He was
living with the father when the marriage of Mts. Vyse took
place, on the sth of January, 1851. About • quarter to
two on the 22nd of May last he saw Mrs. Vyse ; be saw
the children in the morning. He left the house at three
o'clock, and returned at five. and then heard what had oc-
curred. He went up to the front room on the third Boor,
and there saw the two children lying dead. He went
to Mrs. Vyea's room. She was then in she bands of the
*unseal, and they would not let him in. On the Friday
morning he was sent for. He had been up all
night, and bad drank • great deal more than
he ought to have done, and more than he wu
accustomed to take. He did not know who sent for
him. When he went into the room Mrs. Vrie pug her
hand out, and said, "Take my hand." He did so, but in
the state she was in he could not say what she said; be
heard some sounds front her throat, and beard her say,
" What will they do to me"' or "What will he do to me?"
He could not tell which. He was so excited and distressed
he could not any or be answerable for what he said to her.
Alderman Wileon—Did this excitement arise from drink'
Witness—Not entirely.

Aliamen il7llsOCLifien you were in that state that
although other persons heard what sho said, and they heard
you talk of dying for her, you cannot recollect what took
plaos?
Witness—l swear I cannot.
Alderman Wilson—Do you know who Mary is, that Mrs.
Vyse referred to?
Witness—l do not.

Alderman Viiiicirexamined the witness most searchingly,
but could not learn from him who was meant by Mary. He
did not know any of the young ladies by that name. The
witness positively swore he did not know.
Alderman Wilson said he believed the witness knew more
than he was willing testate.
Mrs. Boyce, the nurse from St. Bartholomew's Hospital.
deposed that she attended Mrs. Vyse from the evening of
the 22nd of May until the present time. She had never
alluded to what had taken place.
Martha M'Sweeney, the housemaid, was recalled, and
stated that the meat and rice.pudding she received from the
witness Johnson were in the same state as she received them
when she gave them to Airs. Vyse. She did not know how
many of the young ladies dined together, sometimes ten or
twelve.

By Mr. Vining—Mr. Vyse steed to cane at the dinner
table, and sometimes Ms. Vyse, what be was absent.
Mr. Pearson said that was all the evidence be proposed to
offer. He did not wish unnecessarily to wound the pri-
soner's feelings, but would at mom irk fora committal.
The prisoner was then fully committed for trial, and at a
late period of the day was conveyed la a cob to Nowgato.

MR. BENEDICT'S CONCERT.

Mr. Benedict's annual concert at St. James's
Hall, on Monday morning, drew together one of the largest
and most brilliant assemblies we have ever mean in that
place. The entertainment was so ample and varied that it
is impossible form to speak of it in detail ; but we may
say in general that the selection was such as might be ex-
pected from Mr. Benedict's taste sad judgment. It in-
cluded the whole of the music composed for the Inter-
national Exhibition ; favourite pieces extracted from his
principal operas, The Gipsy's Warning, The Lily
of Killarney, The Crusaders, and The Brides
of Venice; and miscellaneous pieces of English
and foreign composers. The vocal performers were Mile.

pieces were performed on the piano by Mr. Benedict, on the
violin by Herr Joschhn, end on the horn by the celebrated

SALMON FISHERIES (SCOTLAND) BILL.
Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY moved the second
reading of this tall, which had ease up from the House of
Commons. He described the main provisions of the bill,
which were, that the oommiseionses should have powers of
defining the limits of estuaries, of making retiona, and
of determining the coast line of rine% Two e rivers of
Scotland, the Tweed and the Tay, were already under
special regulations of their own; and one of the pro.
visions of this bill further was to exempt the Solway
from its operation. Another important feature of the bill
was the limits which it imposed with regard to the weekly
ekes time, about which he understood there was much con-
troveny, and which was now fixed from twelve o'clock on
Saturday night to twelve o'clock on Sunday. He hoped
their lordships would give their swat to the mond
reading.

BATHS of HOMBURG, near Frankfort-on-
the-]Iame.—SUMMER SEASON, iiidE—The MINERAL
WATERS of HOMBURG, as evidsiced by the analysis of the
celebrated Professor Liebig, are stimulant, tonic, alterative, and
aperient. They are of admirable service in removing disorders
of the stomach and other intestines. They stimulate these
organs when the abdominal emulation is defective, assist the
processes of secretion, and give a healthful regularity to the
orgasm of nutrition and assimilation. They are powerful reme-
dial agents in eases of enlargement of the liver, in affection of
the spleen, in hypochondria, jaundice. hemorrhoidal disease and
obstinate constipation. In cases of gout, sod all other affection
produced by inedlcieney of the digestive functions, the most
happy results have been obtained from them.
The efficacy of the waters is more especially recognized by
those who drink them at their source ; for then, the invigorating
air of the mountains, the gaiety of the surrounding scene, and
perfect abstraction from the cares of the world, concur la assist,
ng the action of the medicinal beverage.
The magnificent casino, which, In the beauty of its arehltec-
tore, the judicious distribution of its apartments, and the rich-
ness of its decorations, surpasses every other edifice of the kind
on the banks of the Rhine, contains' saloons for balls and con-
certs, as also for the games of trente et quarante and roulette:
the former is played with the half refalt, and the latter with one
zero; the daily venture of the bank at the trente et guarantor
table is fixed at g 12,000 and the maximum stake is C4BO.
Among the othi r attractions may be mentioned a large and
comfortable reading room, liberally furnished with German,
French, English, Hellen, Russian, Belgian, and Dutch journals;
a coffee room in the Olympic style of decoration ; a divan, for the
enjoyment of a cigar, opening on to a fine terrace paved with
asphalt y ; a grand dining room,where there is a table-trbbte I la
Franeaise, twice a day, at one and five o'clock, under the super-
intendence of the celebrated M, Chevet, of Paris, who Is the
lessee of the refreshment department of the Eurhaua.
An excellent orchestre, numbering forty distinguished musi-
cians, performs three times a day : in the morning at the Wells ;
in the afternoon In the beautiful gardens of the Casino, and in
the evening in the grand Ballroom.
The new railway has almost brought Homburg Baths to the
outskirts of Frankfort. There are twenty trains a day, tone fro,
the last as late as eleven o'clock. As the journey occupies only
half an hour, the amusements of Frankfort are within easy
reach. Visitors in Homburg may get to Brussels in twelve bourn,
to Berlin In fifteen, to Paris in sixteen, and to London in twenty-
four, so excellent is the intercommunication by rail.

GREECE.

According to the last intelligence from Athens of
the 24th ult., a certain amount of agitation still
existed in the kingdom of Greece, and particularly
in the islands composing the Cycladee. Disturbances
were considered not unlikely at Byre at the time of
the municipal elections, and, in consequence, the au-
thorities had taken great precautions. The orders
transmitted to the Prefect of the Cyclades recommend
the greatest abstention on the part of the government
agents ; the new ministry, in place of employing com-
pression, being resolved to allow the utmost liberty.
Most persons, private letters state, are of opinion
that the new system will not succeed better than
the old, the feeling against the government being
exceedingly strong. As to the moderate portion of
the press, it has assumed an expectant attitude
with regard to the new cabinet. The Prkurseur,
without allowing itself to utter any direct blame,
seems to regret the former ministry, and remarks
that, whereas all the preceding ministers could use
the French language, there are only three of the
new members that understand that language.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

The Commissioners and their staff are working
hard to make the prize-awarding festival of the
11th of July as attractive as possible, and they
have invited the chiefaroyal military bands from
France, Belgium, Hon mi, Austria, Prussia, and
Italy. The British military bands will be those of
the Hone Guards, the god Life Guards, the Royal
Artillery (two bands), the Royal Engineers, the
Grenadier Guards, the Coldstream Guards, the
Scots Fusiliers, the Royal Marines, and the Volun-
teer Engineers. If the Emperor of Austria's
band should fortunately accept this invitation, the
public will have a real musical treat, as no such
body of performers on brass instruments exists in
the world.
Yesterday was another good average day at the
building, the total attendance being 62,336, of
which 56,770 were by payment and 5,566 by season

COLLISION AND LOSS OF LIFE 011 THE
RIVER.

INQUEST.—(THLS DAY.)
Thin morning an inquiry was held at the Green
Man Tavern, ilighwtreet, Poplar, by Mr. H. Raffles
Waltbew, the deputy coroner for East Middlemen, into the
circumstances of a collision on the Thames last Sunday
afternoon, by which Agnes Shand, aged 21, lost her life, and
some others received various injuries.
P. England, who was unable to stand from injuries re.
mitred on the occasion, said that oath* afternoon in question
deceased and some other friends and himself took a large
strong row boat at Cherry-garden Pier, Bermondsey. Wit.
nese and a young man named Chapel rowed down the
river. The tide was running up, and when they
got near the Dreadnought there was a steam-tug
towing a fishing smack up the river, to avoid
which they tried to cross over to the Poplar side of the
water. They had just escaped two passenger staitners and
a sailing vessel at the same spot, and in two strokes they
would have been clear also of the tug, but the latter would
sot stop, but came right into them amidships. The shock
cut the boat in halves, and threw all in it into the water.
Witness lifted up hie band to signal the tug to stop
before the collision, but he could see no one on board.
When in the water he got under the paddle-wheel, where
be found a rope, which he laid hold of, and was dragged
along under the water. He was picked up by a small boat,
and was taken to the Dreadnought hospital ship. The de-
ceased had laid hold of him as she fell in the water, and he
held her until he found himself under the wheel,
when her mantle gave way, and he mw her
no more. The others laid hold of the guard-chains,
and were taken off by boats. Halliwell was injured in the
arm. They had been all perfectly sober, and witness and
Halliwell were accustomed to rowing. The tag could have
stopped before the collision. Several persons sew the cap-
tain of the tug run up on deck with only his .trousers on
after the accident. The tug was 1W yards off when wit.
was first bailed it. The steamer coming down the river
would have run into them if they had stopped short to
allow the tug to pass clear.
By the Jury—They were all perfectly cool and collected.
They had during the day only ginger beer to drink. The
tog was named the Ranger.
Wm. Chapel said that at the time the accident happened
the tide had just begun to run down the river. The tug
was bailed by the boat, and also by a sailing veined which
was near, but witness saw no one on board the tug. The
wheels of the latter did not stop until witness and hie
companions were all under water.
Wm. Delman. a waterman who witnessed the occurrence,
was then examined, but he threw no additional light upon
the matter.

Mr. Kills, the coroner's officer, stated that the ciptain
of the Ranger was oot then present, and the court wed ad.
lemma to give bin. an opportunity of giving any explana•
tory statement which be might have to offer.
The proceedings. excited great interest among the nautical
community, and the room was crowded.

SOUTHWARK.

Jahn Henry OW, a respectable looking Man, who elated
that be bed just arrived from Australia, was brought before
Mr. Combs charged with attempting to commit suicide by
jumping off Blackfriambridge.
A waterman of the name of Williams said that on Bun-
day afternoon, about three o'clock, he was rowing his brat
up the Thames, when he saw the prisoner leap off the
parapet of Blackfriars-bridge, near the centre arch, and in a
very dangerous place, as there were numerous piles and
logs of wood floating near. Fortunately for the prisoner he
fell clear of them, and as be rose to the surface, WitaillP
caught hold of him, and with the assistaoce of • foreigoer,
got him into the boat. He was almost insensible, and ap-
peared to be very much injured. Be, however, soon reco-
vered, and was taken into custody by a police-constable. It
was a miracle that he was not dashed to pieces.
The prisoner, who said he was an Australian miner, and
had only been in England seven weeks, declared that he had
no intention of committing suicide. He was sitting on the
edge of the bridge, in one of the recesses, looking et the
river, and, perceiving two boats coming across, as he
thought racing, he stretched himself over, sod over-
balanced himself. He threw himself out to escape the
piles and sbutmenta. Hs wee perfectly sober aid collected.
A coffeehouse-keeper here came forward, and having pro-
mised to take are of the prisoner, be was liberated, sad
they left the court together.
James Riley, an infirm m•n, 66 years of age, was next
charged with attempting to commit suicide by cutting his
throat with • razor.

The prvwer lived in a miserable lodging in Windmill.

his family, which so preyed upon his mind that be bad Si.
pressed a determination to destroy himself. On Monday
afternoon he was discovered in the yard by a woman
cutting his throat with a razor, but being paralysed in the
right arm he wee prevented from doing it effectually.
The poor man, who seemed unoommious of what was
going on, was at ones sent by Mr. Combs to Lambeth
Workhouse, with directions that he should be taken are

THE POLICE COURTS.

WESTMINSTER.

Henry Wood Dame, of cab 10,563, of 8, Auerley-road,
Harrow-rood, appeared to a summons taken out by Francis
Kidd, of 79, Lombard street, charged with refwiiug to drive
him.

It appeared that on last Monday fortnight complainant
was in the Knightsbridge-road, on his way to the Inter-
national Exhibition, when he called the defendant. Juat as
be had done so a partof four or five ladies and gentlemen
also spoke to him. Defendant, in answer to complainant,
then said he was engaged. That party, however, entered
another nab. Complainant, upon seeing them enter it, said
to defendant, " You are not engaged now," and got into
the cab. Defendant still refused to take him, saying that
his bone was tired, and that he moat go home to Padding-
ton. Complainant took his number, and went in another
cab to the Exhibition. He saw the defendant subsequently
plying for hire.
There was another summons fora similar offence, taken
out by the same complainant.
The evidence in this case was that the complainant, who
had gone to the Exhibition to meet some friends, on leaving
with them saw defendant plying for passengers ; he called
him and said he wanted to go with one of his friends to
Wyndham-place. Defendant again said he was engaged.
Complainant afterwards got into a Hansom cat, and on his
way to Wyndham-place saw defendant plying in Sloane-
street. _ _ _

Mr. Lewis, Jun., wanted toshow, on the part of the de •
fondant, that he was not acting contrary to the law.
Mr. Arnold decided otherwise, and fined the defendant on
the two summonses 40s. in each care, or in default of pay-
ment two separate imprisonments of one month, and his
license wan suspended for three months.
