A petition to the Paris congress on the affairs
of Syria has been very numerously signed by
the European merchants, shopkeepers, and other
residents at Beyrout, praying for a continuation of
the occupation of Syria by French or other Euro-
pean troops until the more effectual government
of the country has been orimnised. La case of such
occupation not being decided on by the congress,
they pray for timely notice of the course that is to
be pursued, in order that they may provide for their
own safety.

A letter from Vienna states that a Hungarian
amity regiment in 'anima at Montebello, between Vetaaa
and VICODZA, was on the point of deserting and teeming the

The letter adds that the regiment will probably be deci-
mated.

POOR RELIEF IN THE METROPOLIS.

The committee appointed to consider the working

Villiers is the Asir.

court, waeealled sad ei.u.iord.

The Chairman—l think you are desirous of makin; some
communication to the coninuttee in consequence of a
reference having lasso made to the course which you
adopted in afford* relief during the last winter.
Mr. gathered from the sources of public infer
nation that some erroneous impression exists an to the
weds in which relief was administered both at the Thames
sad other pohce-courts. The impression which exists in
that there has bees a want of discrimination in the admin-
istration of refill, sad that it ass given without inquiry.
I am anxious, so far as I am concerned, to remove that
lespressios, blame I think I can with some confidence
that the greatest pains were taken to inquire not only into
this raft td the artitutios, but into the character of those
who received rebel as our court.

The Moamar—l seed not ask you whether large sums
were plead at year disposal
Mr. Sella—Yee. The ordinary amount received at Christ-
urie is about 5001. Last winter the amount wu upwards of
44001. My colleague aid lat first seriously considered the
impedieney of our mode of proceeding, and we agreed to
Aria the Yewaisis equally that Mr. Yardley should distil.
tide hie Wu and that I should distribute mine.
The • —Did you refuse soy money that was sent
to yes!
Mr. Sitlfe—Only In two or three cases. The reasonitor
doing so was sot that we had ton touch or that we could not
distribute it. In the sea of St. Katherine's Dock Company
we sent bock 401., station that they knew their own neigh-
: boors better than we did.
The Chairman—Was there not a request made in several
era that the subscriptions should be distributed in a par.
Uvular way!
Mr. Salle—l think not. Certainly not to any great
extent.

The Chairmea—But you accepted large sums, and under-
took the duty of distributing it. Had you any principle on
which von meted ?
Kr. Deem km • supine' to anybody for whose
character and destitution I bed sot the Pledged word of a
person know' to myself ; consequeutly I may hare refused
many perms' who were deserving. These persons were
known to the applicant as well as to myself.
The Chairmen—What amount did you distribute weekly
OD the priecipleyou kid down?
Mr. Selfe—About 4001. Other persons assisted in the
distribution. I never assisted any one who resided out of
the police district. I believe there were not, some three or
four uses in which the parties were not entitled to relief.
The Cliairmaa.—lt ha. been said that the penmen about
the Ake had no means of knowing the eircumatances of the
poor, mod could not inform the magistrate whether the per.
sons were deserving or nut
Ur. Fielfe—l don t agree in that. The officers meet know

PARLIAMENTARY REFORM.

MEETING AT SOUTHWARK.
A numerously attended public meeting in fur-
therance of the reform cause was held last evening at
Taylor's South London Depository, opposite the Elephant
and Castle, St. George's-reed, Southwark.
Mr. Gigolos NEWMAN having been voted to the chair,
stated that their object iu meeting on that occasion was
that they should let the governing classes know that they
were in earnest in their demand for reform. (Cheers.) Per-
haps they would not get all they wanted at present, but
there was a enemas before the House of Commons which
would come on for discussion to-morrow, and as that
measure would add considerably to the constituency, be
hoped the people of Southwark would make known their
opinions respecting it in such a manner an would show the
government that they wished the House of Commons to
pass it into law. (Cheers.)
Mr. Gioacit THOMP9OI. then moved the first resolution,
which was that " the conduct of the government and the
House of Commons since the opening of the present session,
especially in their rejection of Mr. Locke King's bill and
the voting of supplies, is justly r.rrded by the country
with indignation ; that the honourable members for South-
wark and Lambeth be requested to declare from their
places in the house that this great meeting of their con-
stituents swards the present ministry as unworthy of con-
fidence, inasmuch as th_e
_y have refused retrenchment and
?MOM, and to vote for Mr. R. Baines's bill to-morrow, as a
71 to Lord John Russell's abatises*, and am ea instalment
e peoples rights.'
Mr. G. Day moonded the resolution, which was put from
the chair and agreed to unanimously.
Mr. WAIMINGTON WILLS next moved a resolution to the
effect that whatever the vote of the Home of Commons be
on Mr. Baines's mamas) of reform, it was necessary to
agitate and orpauo for a reform bill based upon universal
registered suffrage, and providing other safeguards to the
full, free, sad fair representation of the people.

The Rev. W. H. BONNER, of Trinity-square, seconded the
on.
The resolution having been supported by Mr. FONLIN,
was then put from the chair and agreed to.

RAILWAY BILLS IN PARLIAMENT.

Yesterday, two committees, out of a numerous
group appointed by the Loose, resumed their sittings after
the Easter recess. In that presided over by Mr. Puller,
where the occupation of the Shrewsbury and Ellesmere dis-
trict is being strongly contested by the London and North
Western and Great Western Railways respectively, who
are in fact fighting over again, though upon • smaller
sale, "the battle of the gauges," through the medium of
projected lines, the cue of the Ellesmere and Whitchurch
Railway was proceeded with, and engineering evidence was
taken in its favour. The inquiry, which occupied • fort-
night before Easter, appears likely to be prolonged until the
close of the week. The contest in the committee of which
Mr. Blackburn is chairman, between the old Dock companies
of Hull and the newly projected WestDoekCompany, goes on
unabated, and Is likely to last another week. Yesterday
the case of the local Board of Health of Hull upon the
subject wan proceeded with, and those of other local and
landed interests remain to be considered.

There were no committees sitting in the Lords, although
there is a great mass of business bud hills waiting for com-
mitment and consideration.

The examiners on standing orders, Mr. Smith and Mr.
Frere, were engaged in dealing with the consideration of
the followiog, several of them boing newly introduced bills,
which were declared to have caroplied with the standing
orders : Edgeware, Highgate, and London Railway ;
Bishop's Castle Railway (for additional provision) ; Os-
westry, Newtown, Shrewsbury, and Welabpool and
sad Newtown Railway ; Dean Forest and Hundred of
St. Drifted's Bill; New Forret Bill ; Clitheroe Gas ; Price's
Patent Candle Company ; Portsmouth Water; Belfast
Borough ; Brentford and Kew-bridge.

THE OMNIBUS ACCIDENT AT DUBLIN.

An inquest was held on Monday on the bodies of
emus of the persons drowned in the canal on Saturday
night. It was adjourned at 6 o'clock. So far as the
evidence has gone, no blame is attached to the driver and
conductor of the omnibus. Both were proved to have
been quite sober at the time, and they bore the character
of steady, careful men. It was usual to stop for the
ilrzi,e of letting out passengers on the top of the
where there is barely room for.the wheels on
the level spot between the inclines. The omnibus
stopped before it quite reached the top, and almost
immediately began to run back. During this process, which
occupied only three or four minutes, the efforts of the
driver had the effect of turning the hones' heads towards
Rathmines, and they thus backed into the canal. The
conductor remained behind the omnibus most of the time,
the omnibus door being shut. One of the witnesses be-
lieved there was " plenty of time" to open it; but none
of the passengers was heard asking to have it opened.
The wooden railing, had it been sound, might have
saved the passengers ; but the portico in the ground
was quite rotten, and gave way like Viper. It was
put up many yeah ago, and was merely in-
tended as a protection to foot passengers, and never
could, in the opinion of one witness, have resisted the
weight and force of the omnibus. If the railing had been
iron, as it should have been, no lives would have been lost.
Dr. Monks, who was on the spot earl', and, the coroner
said, exerted himself in the most praiseworthy manner,
stated that the lamp on the bridge was "disgracefully dim,"
and that the bridge is always badly lighted. When the
omnibus fell in it was but half covered with water. Had
the lower gates been opened immediately to let off the
water in the chamber, some of the lives !Ai&
have been saved. But it was about twenty minutes be-
fore this was done, as the lockman had to be
sought, and when he appeared he refused to open
the lower gates, because the upper sluice was partly
oven, and he wished to shut that first. He seems to have
been stupefied in the coofusion that prevailed, but the
coroner said that nothing in the evidence showed bum to be
culpable. At length Mr. Joseph Burke, C.E., opened the
lower gates, but before this we done, the top of the
omnibus was covered ; and when the bodies, six in number,
were taken out, they were all dead, half the time sufficing
to drown them. It did not appear from the evidence that
any of the victims cried out when precipitated into the
dreadful abym. The shock and the terror seem to have
struck them dumb before they were suffocated by the
water. In the darkness they probably hardly knew where
they were exactly till the bat fatal moment.

ITALY.

The Opinion of Turin devotee a leading article
to the Muratiat movement at Naples, as revealed
by the fact that General Ullos, a well-known
Bourboniat (having been minister under Francis
IL), has set out for Paris with petitions addressed
to Prince Murat, signed, it says, by only a few
hundred persons, and not by 76,000—(the statement
of Granier de Cam:ignites journal, the Pays, was
that the signatures numbered 750,0001—as had been
erroneously stated by other journals. It denies
the existence of any Muratiat party in Southern
Italy, and asserts that there are only a few mal-
contents who are intent upon fishing in troubled
waters, and who, finding that they would not be
listened to were they to preach the restoration of
the Bourbons, are endeavouring to put forward
Prince Murat, in order to arrive at the same end.
The 4th of April, being the date of the outbreak
of the Sicilian revolution last year, was kept as a
clone holiday throughout the island, the govern-
ment setting the example.
The steam-frigate Italia was successfully launched
at Naples on the 6th, in the presence of Prince
Engine of Carignan.
A letter from Turin, of the 6th, in the inde-
pendence says :
Senna regiments of arcelry, and among °then the
Laucen of Florence, who bays been in garrison is this city,
have been soot off today to reinforce the troops on the
frontier. What is more, the minister of war, Gemini
Fasti. is endeavouring to reconstitute that southern army
of which ho was supposed to bs the deadly enemy. The
four divisions of which it was composed will be rnisbals-
lished under the oonunand of their former generals, Birk,
Medicisihrtori, and Torr. It is even said that they will be
stationed as the Po from Pisonar to /crass. The Minister
of Finnan will in a few days present a bill authorising the
negotiation of a loan, the amount of which will emceed all
expectation, being 500 millions.
The liniie of Turin announces that Mr. Marsh
has been appointed by President Lincoln United
Staten Minister to the government of the new
Italian kingdom.

THE ITALIAN CHAMBER.
TURIN, Area. 9, Emma.

In to-day's sitting of the Senate, Signor Vacca
put the interpellation in reference to Rome, of
which be had previously given notice.
Count Cavour, in his reply, said :—" In the
Roman question the Italian government can only
employ moral means, and cannot act against Ramo
as a conqueror." Count Cavour admitted that the
solution of the Neapolitan question was bound up
with the Roman question, and that it was neces-
sary for the tranquillity of the southern pro-
vinces that the antagonism between the state
and the church should cease shortly.
"The government." he continued, "will energeti-
cally suppress any disorders at Naples, but the
most efficacious means to that end would be the
solution of the Roman question. The hopes which
I recently expressed have not diminished." Count
Cavour then maintained that the Italians were not
only liberal, but as much catholic' as the French
and the Belgians.

Banixox, Juitx 21.—The transactions of the week have
been confined to a few parcels of West India at prices vary-
ing from 345. to 375. The market is without spirit, and
buyers operate with great caution, still expecting prices to
go lower. Nothing doing in rum.

COTTON GOODS.—Maircumnin, Jim 21.—The
market remains 'boost without change since Tuesday.
There are in some departments rather more offers to pur-
chase, but generally speaking the prices are too low for
acceptance by producers. Shirting appear to be a little
weaker main during the last day or two, but their value
cannot be quoted lower. Nearly all kinds of piece-goods are
equally inactive. The business done in yarns is also of a
very limited character, but in the general tons of that branch
of the market there is no particular variation slime Tuesday,
as it CID hardly be said that there is greater inactivity or that
prices are lees grin. There is more evidence of a disposition
on the part of buyers to do business for the home trade, and
also for China, if minuets would epee to the lower rates
proposed to them.

00B.N.—CMILII8FORD, Joni 21.—T0-day being the

Lamour, JUNE 21.—A short supply of wheat, but the
weather being all that can be desired for the growing crops,
the trade ins very slow, and males could only be effected at

quotations are almost nominal. Wheat, white, 54e. to 61m.;

Although the actual business done iu the metal market

of thus establishing a complete accord between the
cabinets of Paris and Turin, as was the case during
Count Cavour's ministry."
La Patric of this day publishes the following in
very prominent type :
" The Cabinet of Turin perfectly agrees with
France on the subject of the recognition of the

HEALTH OP LONDON.

The weekly return of " Births and Deaths in
London," issued by authority of the Registrar-General, says
it is satisfactory to find that in last week (ending Saturday,
the 10th instant) there was a decrease in the mortality of
Loud= as compared with that of two previous weeks. In
the third week of July the deaths were 1,171; in the two
following they rose to 1,207 and 1,225 respectively ; last
week they again declined to 1,172. The mean temperature
of the air has been above 60 deg. in each of the last nine
weeks, with the exception of the first week in July, when it
was 59.7 deg. List week it was as high as 644 deg.
The average number of deaths as derived from the re-
turns of corresponding weeks in the ten years 1851-60 is
raised to a certain extent by the cholera that prevailed in
this month in 1854. If the deaths from the epidemic of that
year are excluded, and the average corrected for increase of
population, it will be seen that the number returned for last
week is teem by about 60 than that obtained by calculation.
Diarrkaa was fatal last wadi in 177 aims, of which 161
occurred to children, chiefly infants. Cholera or choleraic
diarrhea' was also fatal in 13 eases, 6of which occurred to
children less than three years of see.
Typhus exhibits an increase, for the deaths referred to it,
which hardly exceeded 20 in the two previous weeks, rose
to 43.

Last week the births of 881 boys and 878 girls, in a 111,759
children, were registered in London. In the ten oorrespood-
big weeks of the years 185180 the average number was
Irsn.
At the Royal Obeervatory, Greenwich, the mean height
of the barometer an the week was 29.809 in. The readings
rose to 29.95 in. on Tuesday and Saturday, and fell to 29.53
in. on Thursday. The mean temperature of the air in the
week was 64.4 deg., which is 2.5 deg. above the average of
the same week in 4:1 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisber).
The mean daily temperature rose total deg. on Monday,
and 68.2 deg. on Saturday, which are respectively 4.1 deg.
and 6.4 deg. above the averages. The greatest elevation of
the thermometer in the shade was 81.3 deg. on
Saterday ; the lowest night temperature was 50.7 deg. on
Wednesday.
