RiTOILM MEETING AT PurnorTn.—We learn by
telegraph that • crowded and enthusiastic meeting was
bat last night at Plymouth, composed principally of
working men and artisans employed in the government
establishme•ts in favour of parliamentary reform. The
Rev. Mr. Bonner addressed the meeting in advocacy of
manhood suffrage and the ballot, and his remarks were
received with applause. It was resolved by acclamation
that the present restricted franchise is a gross injustice to
the working classes, and ought to be remedied, and that
nothing would be satisfactory but a representation based
isa registered manhood suffrage and vote by ballot. A
branch of the Reform League was formed, and many at
once enrolled themselves as members.

BISHOP COLllNBo.—Messrs. Trubner annernce,
under the title of " Natal Sermons," a series of discourses
preached by Bishop Colenso in his cathedral church f St.
Peters, Maritzburg, and which are to be republish( d here
under his sanction. Among these are discourses on "the
Devouring Fire," " the Fallibility of the Seri' tures,"
"Signs and Wooden," "Demoniacal Possession." and
" Abraham's Sacrifice."

THE CHARGE OF NEGLECT AGAINST A MEDICAL
MAN.—Yesterday afternoon, at a meeting of the board of
guardians of Bethnal-green, Mr. Collins in the chair, the
conduct of Dr. J. Massingham, the parish surgeon, who
was alleged to have neglected a patient named Anne
Ferry, under circumstances which • coroner's jury pro-
nounced to be " inhuman, and such as disqualified him
from continuing to hold his appointment," came under
discussion. Mr. Massingbam who was present, handed iu
the following written statement in his defence:—" On
Wednesday, Jan. 2, about 7 p.m., a woman brought me
an order. I asked what was the matter ; she said, Con.
finement.' I inquired how long the person had been ill,
and if she wanted me directly ; she replied, ' No; she was
confined about II o'clock this morning,' and that a neigh-
bour had attended her. I said, What did you get an
order for,' and she said, ' Because I want sonic medicine
for the after-pains,' at the same time giving me a bottle
which she bad brought for it. I gave her some
medicine, and as she was going out she asked me
to give her • call on my round neat morning.
At about half-past 10 next morning a girl came
to my shop, and said her mother was very bad,
and she thought dying. I thought the girl came from
another patient who had several times sent to me that she
was dying, and I said, ' Nonsense, your mother will not
die yet, and I am coming out and will call and see her.'
Directly after another came and asked me to go and see
Mrs. Ferry, as they thought she was dying. I said she
could not be from her labour, but that there must be some-
thing else the matter with her. She then told me she
was turning blue. I then Wall she must have some disease
of the lungs, said I am coming out directly and will call
on her first. I went out in about ten minutes afterwanls,
and had to ere a patient on my way to Ferry's house, and
while there I bad • return of dysentery which I hail been
suffering from for three or four days, and was obliged to
return home. I immediately sent my son to see her, and
he returned and told me she was suffering from congestion
of the lungs, and would survive about an hour or so. He
prescribed remedies for her. As soon as I was able to get
oat again I went to see her and found her dead." After
considerable discussion, in the course of which several
members of the board expressed strong condemnation of
Mr. Massingham's proceedings, as stated by himself, Mr.
Fox said that the course taken by the board should be such
as would distinctly mark their disapproval of Mr. Massing-
brim's conduct. He therefore moved that Mr. Measingham
be suspended, and that the evidence and Mr. Massingbasu'e
statement be for warded to the Poor-law Board. This no-
Boa having been seconded, was carried unanimously.
iwo BROTHELS FROZEN TO DEATH.—On Monday
morning last a telegraphic message was received at the
Chatteris Station, informing the relatives of Samuel and
John Larkins that the poor fellows, who were natives of
thisrt of Cambridgeshire, were on Sunday morning
founddead on the river bank near Lincoln. The brothers
were both employed at Messrs. Ruston, Praetor, and Co.'s
foundry, one as a fitter and the other as a driller. They,
in company with another brother (Charlie) and a may
(brother to Samuel's wife), started on • skating excursion
to Saxilby, sir miles from Lincoln, on Saturday afternoon
which place they reached ; and, after • rest of several
hours, they set out on their return, and skated back about
two miles of the distance, when they took off their skates,
intending to walk the rem •ining distance. They, how-
ever, found very great difficulty in getting along, the night
being intensely cold, and • strong east wind blowing right
against them. Charles and the boy, it seems, pushed on
ahead and got home shortly after midnight, but the other
two were overcome with fatigue and cold, and the next
morning their bodies were found, one at Skellingthorpe-
ferry and the other about • mile nearer Sazilby, both
frozen to death. They were both strong men; Samuel
WAS about 30 and John about 24 years old, and it is very
remit' kable that they should have been lost in the way
they were. Probably the one found at the ferry was
making his way to Pyewipe Inn, which he was within
half-a-mile of, for assiotanoe. but before reaching it be
too succumbed, and hay him down to die. The three
brothers all worked at the Sheaf Iron-works, and came
from the same part as Mr. Ruston himself, viz., Cam-
bridgeshire. They were young men of good character and
industrious habits, and were all married. One of these
beet leaves two children and the other one, besides
widows.—Castbridee inelepesselestr.
