ently accommodated would be a violation of the law. He
did not consider that the question was whether the corner
seats in omnibuses should or should not be removed, but
whether the accommodation contrived suited the couvenience
dell the passengers; and he considered, too, that the act re-
quired that there should be associated, together with the
16 inches allowance to each passenger, other accommoda-
tions itt the construction of public carriages. Iles lordship
said ho was persuaded that his brother magistrates would
! join in carrying out to the full extent the necessary regula-
tions,
and that such public notice of those int7nt.ons
should be given as would arm all omnibus passengers with''
the power of, to a great extent, protecting themselves. The
penalty amounted to 101., and certainly a few convictions of
the kind would check the practice which daily increased of
crowding in passengers going towards the West-end. Ile
believed, indeed, that Cheapside and Fleet-street presented
at that moment many instances of the inconvenience com-
plained of, and the transgression of the law which it was so
necessary to observe.
Three persons were brought before the Lord Mayor for
having attempted se destruction. One of them an indus-
trious bricklayer's Wearer, aged 19, had taken the pledge
against string liquors and kept it eleven months and 27
days, and was then tempted to swallow a dodger of gin
which led to another, and finally to the most intolerable
compunction. Ile was found in an outhouse hanging from
a beam, round whioh he had tied a silk handkerchief which
he had tightly fixed round his neck. A minute or two
more would certainly have finished his earthly caresr. The
second person charged was a common labourer who ap-
peared while at the bar to suffer excessively from delirious
tremens. lle had been drinking gin, and he walked into
an unfrequented:part of ahouse which appeared to him to be
a fit place in which to perpetrate the dreadful act he con-
templated. Ile too was cut down when completely sense-
lest.. Ile was described as black in the face, and with eyes
starting from their sockets.
The first of these unhappy men thanked Ood for having
been saved, and ascribed the inclination to suicide to no-
thing but " the glass," which he said was the only thing
that made him mad.
The second said he was in entaloyment, and that he had
no recolketion of any attempt to do violence to himself;
that, in fact, ho would never have entertained such
thought if he had not taken a drop extra.
=Ole third suicidal attempt was made by a young woman,
the servant in a house in Oracechurch-street, and the com-
plaint was made by her master, who said that she hail acted,
in all probability, under the impression that her mistress
would discharge her in consequence of her having received
the frequent visits of a young man, who paid his addresses
to her in the absence of the family. Upon being spoken to
upon the subject she said she would drown herself, and
when her muter prevented her from leaving the house to
dispose of herself in that way, she can up stairs with the
intention, as he believed, of throwing herself into the street.
The three prisoners were remanded.
MARLBORO U ti 11-STREET.
J. Bartholomew and J. Forzer, two young men in the
employ of Mr. Street, landlord of the Trevor Arms,
Knightsbridge, were charged with unlawfully selling beer
in Hyde I'ark, contrary to the act 2 & 3 Viet., c. 47, r. 7.
Mr. T. W. hall, cashier to Messrs. Fox and Henderson,
the contractors, said that he was instructed to appear against
the defendants by Mr. Digby Wyatt,secretary to the Execu-
tive Committee of the Crystal Palace, in consequence of the
defendants persisting in selling beer in the vicinity of the
Crystal Palace, notwithstanding the caution they received
from the magistrate on Tuesday last. On Saturday afternoon
the defendants were in the park, near the Crystal Palace,
selling beer, which they had with them in large cans. As
they had been previously convicted of a similar offence, he
gave them in charge.
The defendants mid they were not in the park at all with
their beer cans. They were outside the park railing when
one of the workmen at the building called to them for a pint
of beer, which was supplied to him, and as they were
leaving the building Mr. Hall gave them in charge.
Mr. Hardwick said he explained the law fully to them
when they were brought before him on Tuesday last. On
that occasion, in consequence of their promising not to
offend again, he let them off with a slight fine. As a
caution to them for the future, he should fine them Els. each.

WESTMINSTER.
Michael Connell and Ann, his wife, were committed to
take their trial, the former charged with robbing Susannah
Blanc Wield, and the latter with killing time woman Caro-
line Jewel, under circumstances which have already been
detailed.

MARKETS.

PRODUCE MARKET.

GLASGOW, AmitL26.LCti:Lguring the whole
of the week our market has been in a very depressed state
—transactions on a limited state, and prices have fallen
nearly id. per lb. Middling Orleans will scarcely stand
more than 6id. per lb., which is a reduction of lid. as com-
pared with the rate of prices in January last. In goods and
yarns the market is equally inanimate, and as the impres-
sion is that prices must still further decline, it is likely that
ere lung the works must resort to short time. Some incon-
venience has been caused this week from a strike of the
calenderers and cloth-lappers, of whom SOO have been out
since Thursday. They demand an abridgment in the hours
of labour, and certain other concessions, which the masters
have resolved to resist. I'ig iron.--Our pig iron market

Tin FAMINE AT St. NICOLAS. Captain Rivers
landed at St. Nicolas from her Majesty's sloop Volcano,
which he commanded, being obliged to return to England
fur the recovery of his health, and on going on board the
Tay his representation was " that hundreds have already
perished from starvation, and the famine, together with ex-
posure, has produced a malignant fever which is decimating
the population. These unfortunate people are dying daily
in the streets without any one to succour them, and so re-
duced are the living, they have not strength to carry the
dead to the churches, but inter them by the roadside, in the
fields, or wherever they may happen to fall. Such is their
unhappy situation, that unless promptly relieved but few
can escape. That they are unfortunate, miserable, and in
want, is their best passport to your favour; but they have
another claim. These are the men who so nobly risked
their lives in succouring the crew of the Eclair when she
arrived fever-smitten from the coast—an set Englishmen
eau never repay, but for which they wills be grateful for
ever."
