ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, King's-cross.

Patron—Her Most Gracious Majesty the QUEEN.
Vice-Patron—His Royal Highness the Prince of WALE S,K.G
President—His Grace the Duke of BUCCLEUCH, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.

The numerous and urgent appeals of the sick poor for ad-
mission compel the Committee to entreat the bounty of the
affluent and humane, as the medical officers are daily obliged
t) treat as out-patients many distresiing cases which. with
more adequate funds, they would gladly admit into the wards.
The premises of the Hospital are capable of containing 500
beds.

The Hospital is not endowed, but is wholly dependent on
voluntary contributions and legacies, which are received by
the Treasurer, Edward 51as !ern-lan, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also
by Messrs. Coutts and Co.; Drummond and Co. ; [ferries and

Lord Mayor Lawrence.

The present Lord Mayor has fulfilled all the claims that
custom had to make upon him, and in less than 12 days
hence will have handed over all the symbols of office to his
successor. It has not been a brilliant mayoralty, for the
simple reason that it has been a quiet time in things extra
civic; there has been no famine, no flood, no great ri
ings, no national or international celebrations—and some
or all of such events are needful to give full scope to the
official capabilities and personals aspirations of a Lord
Mayor. But every duty of the office has been well per-
formed, and the citizens could never bestow their thanks
more consistently than upon the gentleman who is fast ap-
proaching his official demise at the Mansion House.
The usual banquets have taken place, and one, the dinner
to the dignitaries of the Church, having been postponed
from its usual data on account of affliction in the family of
the Lord Mayor, took place a few days since, and successful
beyond expectation—satisfactory evidence of the personal
esteem in which the Lord Mayor is held. But amongst the
round of banquets there occurred one by means of which the
present Mayoralty acquires distinction. On Friday last the
Masters and Wardens of the Livery Companies dined to-
gether at the Mansion House, and for the first time for
many a long year there was established between the munici-
pality and the guilds something like a bond of friendly union.
It has been a matter for regret that, between the Corpora..
tion and the Companies there was "a great gulf fixed ,"
the Lord Mayor has made an honourable attempt to bridge
the gulf across, and has, we believe, succeeded so far that it
only needs further efforts of the same kind to establish the
relationships that once existed between the twin powers of
commercial and civil rule. That this undertaking was
prompted by a proper recognition of the value and import-
ance of the guilds was made evident in the Lord Mayoi '6
address on proposing the toast of the evening. Perhaps even
many of the Liverymen whoheard him learnt something new
of the utility of the companies, and the necessity for preserv-
ing them intact and in closer communion with the sources
of civic authority than has been the wont for a long tints
past. Let us hope that this was but the first of a series of
demonstrations in favour of homogeneity in all the details of
civic government, and that the guilds and the Corporation
will hereafter understand each other more perfectly than they have done. We began this for the purpose ef express-
ing, on behalf of our fellow-citizens, a sense of thankfulness
for the services rendered by the Lord Mayor during his terra of cffice, and we have gone a long way round. Nevertheless,
it is meet that there should be something said at such a
time, and we are happy in the privilege of being able to
testify that the Lord Mayor about to retire from office has
given abundant satisfaction in the disposal of the trust re-
posed in him.—City Press.

THE ARMY.

The Himalaya screw troopship, Capt. E. Lacy,
sailed from Portsmouth yesterday afternoon for
Plymouth Sound, with the following military offi-
cers, detachments of troops, and naval supernume-
raries on board--a part of the screw troopship Ad-
venture's freight for Chiva : —99th Regiment, Capt.
Townshend, Ensigns Wayman, Franklin, and
Hinks, and 35 men, 16 women, and 6 children ;
67th Regiment, 67 men, 4 women, and 2 children ;
Royal Marine Light Infantry, 1 subaltern and 55
men; Royal Marine Artillery, 10 men; Commissa-
riat Department, Mr. Woods, 54 stokers and 16
boys for distribution among her Majesty's ships an
the station. Arriving in Plymouth Sound the
Himalaya will wait orders, and,as no fresh cases of
smallpox have been developed on board the Adven-
ture, it is expected that the latter vcasel will, after
due medical inspection, follow the Himalaya on to
Plymouth Sound, and, receiving from her the troops
and supernumeraries at present on board, enter
upon her China voyage, in accordance with her
original orders. The Himalaya wil' go into dock at
Devonport, if retained in commission, and will
afterwards proceed to Corfu, and return from thence
to England with troops and stores. This duty per-
formed, her next voyage is expected to be the
Mauritius with a battery of Royal Artillery.
The 69th Regiment, now on their way home from
India, will, on arrival, be stationed in Portsmouth
garrison.

The few shells thrown by the Prussians upon
Sonderborg on Tuesday have done considerable
damage to several houses, without, however, injur-
ing any living being, The demoralisation of the
townspeople since that first danger is not to be
cured by the subsequent tranqc illity the place has
enjoyed. Nearly all who can has ten their departure ;
houses and shops are literally • emptied of their
contents, and cartloads of furniture encumber al
the thoroughfares. Some of these vehicles are laden
with wretched old articles, which would hardly
be worth the powder and shell that would have to
be employed to destroy them, certainly not worth
the waggon-hire which must be paid in order to
save them; but household goods are not valued by
the standard of price they would fetch at an auc-
tion mart. Old granny's arm chairs and babies'
cradles, I observed, constituted the main part of
every waggon load. All the shipping at Sonder-
borg harbour quitted their moorings at the very
beginning of the bombardment, and have not since
come back. The steamers which carry the mails to
Korsor and Assens start now from Horup Hay.
People ask themselves what wanton whim could
prompt the Prussians to shell an open town, which
gave them no offence, while their real antagonists
were all away from it, manning the trenches of the
Dybbol position. The Prussians might urge in
answer that all is fair in war ; but they seem to
have regretted and repented their unprofitable bar'
barism, as no shell has been directed hitherward
since the first day.
The Danes complain very bitterly of the exac-
tions and requisitions by which the German in-
vaders manage to rob the people of Jutland.
Kolding alone has been compelled to pay a daily
contributed of 20,000 rigsdalers. The Germans
contend that these taxes are levied by way of cory
pensatiln for the embargo laid upon their ships by
the Danish Government. It is the fable of the
wolf and lamb all over again.

STATE OF TRADE,

MANCHESTER, March 24.—The cloth market is without
change since Tuesday, and there is no new feature worth
noting. Buyers are keeping their orders back as long as
they can in the expectation of lower prices. As stocks begin
to accumulate. manufacturers are more anxious to sell, and
prices are weaker. In shipping yarns there has been a
rather better feeling, and the depression observable on
Tuesday has in some measure passed away. The Germans
have been doing rather more business, and also shippers to
others of the nearer markets. Nothing doing for India.
The market closes rather better than it was on Tuesday. In
home trade yarns the prices of common qualities are weak,
but good qualities firmer, without much doing. The market
has beer of a holyday character, and but few spinners and
manufacturers have attended.

BItA.DFORD, 21th.—The demand for certain classes of
English wool has continued active during the week, and
though the approaching holida3 s somewhat interfere with
business, still buyers showed considerable eagerness to
possess themselves of those sorts most in demand. Deep-
stapled wool found most favour, and were decidedly dearer;
those which were the scarcest showing the most marked ad-
vance. Down wools were extremely flat, and made very
little upward movement in price. There was rather an
excited feeling in the worsted yarn department. The ten-
dency in quotations for some weeks has been upward, and
though this was to some extent caused by the continuous
rise in wool, yet to-day the active demand tended to the
same result. Stocks were low. There was a very fair busi-
ness doing in 40's for Russia, and also more doing in 28's
and 30's single for Germany. There was some slight busi-
ness doing in two-folds. There was not much new business
to report in pieces. The home merchants are not very ac-
tive. The continuous demand for America and China tends
to give activity to the machinery of manufacturers, Prices
are exceedingly firm.

COUNTRY MARKETS.

_____..r--,------

BRISTOL—THURSDAY.
There was a short supply of wheat to-day, and sales were
slow at previous quotations. Foreign wheat met a retail
sale, witnout change in value. Malting barley scarce, and
quite as dear; grinding sons heavy, and the turn cheaper.
Oats in limited sale. Beans and peas is lower.

MANCHE STE R—THIIRSDA.Y.
English wheat was sold at 40s to 463 for white, and 361
to 40s per 36 stone for red. Barley, new malting, 301 to
383 per qr ; grinding, 24s to 28s Oats, old, 22s to 301
per 30 stone ; Irish, 18s to 245. Beans, 34s to 40s per qt.
Peas, 32s to 42s per 36 stone.

BIRMINGHAM—THURSDAY.
A limited attendance to-day at our market, and English
wheat met with a slow demand, at about the currency of
this day week. Foreign wheat also neglected, and un-
changed in price. Indian corn firm. Flour met with an
exceedingly dull sale, in favour of buyers. Oats and oat-
meal were dull, at barely former rates. English beans uir
changed in value, but Egyptian sorts very firm.
London, England, 1864-03-25

that business was suspended in St, John's-street, and the
shutters were up on all the leading shops. Immense sheets
of plate-glass were broken up into small pieces. Upper
windows were smashed as with a shower of stones.
Within the shops the ruin was still greater. Druggists'
and perfumers' bottles and cases were thrown from their
shelves ; lamp stores, crockery and glass ware stores, and
groceries, also suffered severely, the brittle goods being in
many cases consigned to one general ruin.
"It is said that there were only seven kegs of powder in
the laboratory, which had just been brought down for
use. When such an amount of destruction was effected
by this small quantity, what would it have been had the
magazine taken fire ? It is said that there were 600
barrels of powder stored in this magazine, with 400 or 500
barrels of ammunition or other combustible material. Had
that building taken fire we should this morning have had
to record the most heartrending catastrophe that ever
visited British North America."

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE,

HOME CIRCUIT.—LEwEs, March 24.
(Before Lord Chief Justice Erle.)
TRAUDULENT CONDUCT OF A BANKRUPT.

Richard Thomas Manser, 24, butcher, was charged,
under the Bankruptcy Act, with having fraudulently dis-
posed of certain property after ho had been adjudicated a
bankrupt, with intent to cheat and defraud his creditors.
Mr. Roupell and Mr. Lumley Smith conducted the pro-
secution ; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Ribton.
It appeared that the prisoner carried on a small business
as a poulterer and pork butcher at Eastbourne, and that he
also had some horses and flies, and in December last year
ho petitioned the county court at Lewes, and was in due
course adjudicated a bankrupt. The evidence clearly made
out that about two months before the bankruptcy he re-
moved a quantity of his furniture, and also some horses
and flies, with a view to prevent them from coming into the
possession of his creditors ; and that he had also applied to
two persons named Yong and Goldsmith, in whose hands
he had placed a portion of this property, to make out a pre-
tended debt with a view to justify them in holding the pro-
perty and preventing the creditors from selling it.
The jury found the defendant guilty, and he was sen-
tenced to six months' imprisonment.

Tha commander of Fredericia reports as fol-

[OM :-

"The enemy withdrew yesterday, abandoning his
position before the town.

FRANKFORT, MARCH 25.

A telegram received here from Berlin confirms
the news of Prussia and Austria having accepted
the Conference without basis and without an
armistice. It is added that the Conference will
shortly assemble.

RUSSIA.

ST. PETERSBURG, MARCEI 25.

An Imperial decree has been published to-day
reforming the law affecting foreigners in Russia.
The decree abolishes the compulsory sale of landed
property belonging to Russian ladies on their mar-
riage with foreigners. The consent of the Emperor
to such marriages, and the payment of three years
taxation in advance by foreigners on becoming
naturalised Russian subjects, are no longer neces-
sary.

Railway and other Companies,

MARLBOROUGH.

The ordinary general meeting of this company was held
on Wednesday at the offices, Victoria-street, Westminster;
Lord Ernest Bruce in the chair.

The report of the directors stateil that the line was nearly
ready for public traffic.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said the line would, no doubt, be opened on the Ist of April
next,

Mr. PRICE seconded the motion for the adoption of the
report, which was agreed to, and the proceedings termi-
nated with a vote of thqnks to the chairman.

GREAT LUXEMBOURG.

The report of the directors states that the gross receipts
of the railway for the second half of ISG3 amounted to
£116,564, and the next earnings to £63,341, against £115,834
gross earnings for the second half of 1862, and £63,574 net
receipts; and against £98,359 gross receipts for the second
half of 1851, and £56,286 net earnings. While the gross
receipts for the second half of 1833 had exceeded those
of the same half of 1861 by £18,215, and of 1862 by £1,231,
the net earnings of 1863 were inferior to those of 1862 by
£233. The diminution was explained by an increase of
£537 in the amount paid for Belgian Government duty.
The proportion of the working expenses to the gross receipts
was 45/ per cent. There was every reason to believe that
the Ourthe Railway would be entirely completed by the let
of January, 1866. T►he directors propose a dividend of ss,
per share, leaving £1,117 to the credit of revenue.
London, England, 1864-03-25

as a subscriber to this find to be placed in a position
of comfort and content, and to enjoy that moderate
degree of happiness described by the poet in speak-
ing of one so situated,—

A wise content his even soul secured,
By want not shaken, nor by wealth allured."

(Lend cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN then proposed the toast of " The
Drama," which was effectively responded to by Mr.
MARK LEMON.

Mr. ROBERT BELL, in proposing the toast of
" Mr. Flower, the Mayor of Stratford, and the
Shakspereian Committee" of that town, compli-
mented that gentleman in graceful terms upon the
zeal and ability which he displayed in connection
with the festival to the memory of Shakspere which
was about to take place at Stratford. He expressed
his conviction that if a letter were now addressed to
" Mr. Flower, England," it would not be delivered
at Thurloe-square, but at the Town Hall, Stratford-
on-Avon. (Cheers and laughter.)
Mr. FLOWER having expressed his acknowledg-
ments, several other appropriate toasts were given,
after which the secretary announced that the sub-
scriptions amounted to upwards of £350.
The musical arrangements were of a superior
character. They were placed under the direction
of Mr. Charles Coote, the vocalists being Miss Poole,
Miss Ellen Lyon, and Mrs. Howard Paul; Mr. G.
Tedder, Mr. W. Fielding, Mr. W. Coward, Mr.
Donald King, Mr. Theodore Distin, Mr. R. Barnby,
Mr. T. Walworth, Mr. J. Coward, Mr. F. Walker,
and Mr. T. Lawler ; and the instrumentalists were
Mr. Carodus, violin, and Mr. F. Chatterton, harp.
The dinner was in perfect keeping with the well-
known capabilities of the celebrated establishment,
and the manner in which it was served up reflected
the greatest credit on Messrs. Eikington and Co.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE IN A Cala —Annie Rivers, a young
female, was charged before Mr. Knox with attempting to
commit suicide under the following circumstances :
It appears that the young woman got into a cab at Hexton,
and requested the driver to drive as fast as possible to
Bond-street. On reaching Bond-street, the driver got down
to let out his fare, when he was surprised to find her in a
state of insensibility. Finding his efforts to arouse her use-
less, he called the attention of police-constable Mott, 335 A,
to the young woman. Mott at first thought she had been
drinking, but fearing that she might have taken some nar-
cotic he told the driver to proceed to the Middlesex Hospital,
when an emetic having been administered, it was ascer-
tained that the young woman had taken poison. On Mott
subsequently examining the cab, he found a phial which
was found to havo contained a drug, and one was also found
on the young woman.
The following certificate was handed to Mr. Knox :
" I hereby certify that Annie Rivers was brought to this
hospital suffering from the effects of opium.—FREUERICX
H. WATTS, Resident Medical Officer, Middlesex Hospital."
Sergeant Bason (acting inspector) asked for a remand, as
although every exertion had been used to discover the pri-
soner's friends, they had been unsuccessful, the more espe-
cially as the prisoner had given false addresses.

The prisoner was remanded.
PAYING FOR REVENGE.—Elizabeth Macdonald was
charged before Mr. Knot as follows :
Mr. Fuller, of 45, Castle street, Leicester-square, said
that the prisoner—who had been a source of great annoy-
ance to him on a previous occasion—on the previous night
entered his house, upset several glasses, and threw some
liquor over his sister. He put the prisoner out with some
difficulty, when she struck him in the face, and saying she
would be revenged, broke two panes of embossed plate glass
of the value of 30s.

Police-constable 40 F proved taking the prisoner into
custody, and said that she had cut her arm so badly that he
was compelled to take her to the Charing-cross Hospital ti
have it dressed.

In answer to the charge, the prisoner said she had injured
her arm.

Mr. Knox told the prisoner that if she acted in the man-
ner she had done she must expect to do so. She would
have to pay the damage, 300, a shilling fine, or be impri-
soned for 14 days.

FORGERY ET A CONFIDENTIAL CLER
Peyton and Emma Hayes were charged with uttering a
forged cheque for £3O, on Glyn and Co.'s bank.
Mr. Pavey, preprieter of the Swan Hotel, New-street,
Covent-garden, stated—l have known the prisoner for
about four or five years as holding a good position in society.
He was managing clerk in a large firm in the City. I was
not aware that he had left his situation. On the 22d
December he called on me, and said he was rather
short of money, and would be obliged if I would lend
him £l5. I lent him the money. Cn the 23d of January,
the female prisoner called on me will a letter from him.
I had known her from seeing her in the prisoner's company
at various times, The letter enclosel a cheque on Messrs.
Glyn's bank, signed " W. Peyton," which was the name
by which I had known him (though I now believe it is a
fictitious nerne), and d ,teti from Park Village West, which
is certainly not hie present address, though, no doubt, he
formerly lived there. The letter contained a request that
I should cash the cheque, deducting the £l6 which he owed
me, and hand the other £l5 to the lady. I accord-
ingly gave her two £5 notes and £5 in sovereigns.
I paid the cheque away to Mr. Gale, a cheesemonger, in
discharge of an account amounting to £24, and he paid ale
the difference. On Monday I received a letter by post from
the prisoner, requesting me to hold the cheque over for a
few days. At that time, however, I had parted with the
cheque. Yesterday (Wednesday) the cheque was returned
to me by Mr. Gale, who had presented it at the bank, where
payment was refused.
After some further evidence the male prisoner was re-
manded, and the woman discharged.
