session plead in the Legislature for the more
effectual protection by the law of the lives, of the
bodies, of the souls of litt7,e children ?

A hideous revelation like that which has but
just now startled the inhabitants of London
"down east" into a reconsideration of this
dreadful frequency of infanticide in the metro-
polis—the discovery of the broken coffins and
mutilated remains, of the mouldering bones
and raiment of a whole cluster of little children,
whose debris have been found festering in a heap
upon the roof of Whitechapel Church—a hideous
revelation like this ought surely at last to close the
legislative apathy in regard to a peculiar class of
crime, a class of crime here, in one sense, most re-
luctantly alluded to ! Crimes the t demand the
most stringent application of the law with a view
to their prevention or diminution, while perpetually
crying to HEAVEN for vengeance upon their per-
petrators.

TEETH.—By MR. ESKELL'S INVENTION
(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
Sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by, means of his patented soft elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity, dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings, and defying detection by tne closest
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary construction, they are guaranteed U. last a life
time, as well as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

WESTMINSTER.

JusTICB IN A Fix.—A man between 60 and 60 years of
age, attired in a large smock frock, was placed before Mr.
Arnold, who having in vain looked for his name amongst
those who had been locked up at the station, inquired who
he was.

Policeman—We don't know.
Mr. Arnold—What is his name ?
Policeman—He can't talk.
Mr. Arnold—You have asked him, of course—does he re
fuse to give it P

Policeman—We don't know about that, your worship,
but he seems to be deaf and dumb. He does not speak at
any rate, and he does not pay the least attention when one
talks to him, and that of course makes us think he is deaf
and dumb.

Mr. Arnold—What offence is he brought before me for ?
Policeman—Begging. He was in Chester-square with a
placard upon his breast, stating that he was deaf and dumb
and compelled to solicit assistance, and I took him into
custody.

Mr. Arnold—Cannot you find any one who can interpret
to a deaf and dumb person ?
Policeman—Yes; I have a person here who can talk
with his fingers, but defendant either can't or won't under-
stand him. We have traced him every where, but we can't
make anything of him at all.
Mr. Arnold—Try again.
The person acquainted with the finger vocabulary stood
forward and made up a sentence, but the defendant stood as
motionless as a statue.

Mr. Arnold—Write on a bit of paper and see if you can
make him understand.

Policeman—We have tried that, sir, and it is no use more
than any other way ; he either won't or cannot understand.
Mr. Higgins, the clerk, wrote something on a piece of
paper and handed it to him, but he appeared to be blind as
well as suffering under the other infirmities, and nothing
came of the experiment.
Mr. Arnold—l don't know what to do with the man. I
can't bear the case unless the accused can be made to com-
prehend what is said against him, or without affording him
the opportunity of reply. I must remand him until Friday,
and every possible inquiry must be made about him, and
somebody to make him understand if possible.

MR. GLADSTONE AT HAWARDEN.

On Monday evening the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer lectured to a large audience in the Bpys
National Schoolroom, Hawarden, near Chester, in
aid of the funds of the Literary and Scientific In-
stitution of the village. The subject chosen by the
right honourable gentleman was a tour which he
made in Sicily in 1838. Speaking of the cholera
which had ravaged the country shortly before his
visit, Mr. Gladstone said the people were possessed
with the feeling that the cholera had been intro-
duced by Government. He made this note on the
subject at the time :—" The people are persuaded
that the King procured the cholera to come among
them, and that it was not sent by God." They began
to murder persons of the upper classes. The cholera
ceased; they believed the King did this to check
the revolutionary spirit and to thin the people.
They also believed that the Cardinal Archbishop
received the cholera in:a pinch of snuff from one of
the King's generals, and that the reason why the
disease was given to him was that he had refused
to have anything to do with the introduction of
cholera into the island. That was a very ludi-
crous but at the same time a very melan-
choly filet, for it was impossible to conceive any-
thing more illustrative of the unhappy and radi-
cally bad system under which the people of
Sicily lived at that period, than that such a
belief should exist among the people of the
island. Sicily was a country of very great interest,
and he had the more pleasure in taking it for
the subject of his narrative because it was a country
that he hoped was about to see brighter destinies
open upon it. (Applause.) He had mentioned what
the people thought of their government at the period
of his visit. The feeling which he had described
and endeavoured to illustrate received a very strong
political illustration about three or four years ago.
When General Garibaldi landed with a handful of
men in Sicily, the population joined him, and he
was ably aided by that population and the few men
whom he brought with him to make head against
and overcome from 20,000 to 30,000 regular troops.
A constitutional government was established; Ga-
ribaldi went on to the continental part of the king-
dom, and became master of Naples. Last year
General Garibaldi, borne along by the impulse of a
generous but not sufficiently reflective enthusiasm,
landed in Sicily again. It was the same man, with
the same purpose—wishing to raise the island for
the purpose of accomplishing Italian freedom. But
mark the difference. The people had confidence in
the Government. They would not join him. He
was obliged to get into a ship to go over to Italy
without an army, and very shortly afterwards he
was made captive, and, unhappily, wounded. He
is now, as we hope, recovering, and not likely again
to tempt the people of Sicily, who have, however,
shown how exceedingly beneficially they have been
acted upon by the substitution of a good system of
government for a bad one. (Applause.)
A vote of thanks to the right hon. gentleman,
and to Sir Stephen Glynne, for presiding, con-
cluded the proceedings.

" Count de Goltz, who replaces M. de Bismark in
France, has just arrived at Paris. Count de Goltz,
in virtue of arrangements agreed upon between the
Government of the Emperor and the Court of Prus-

It is said that M. de Goltz's instructions bear the
stamp of the deepest sympathy for France.''

La France also publishes the following :
" All the Ministers have sent in their special
reports, to form the general report on the state of
home affairs, which is to be distributed to the
Chambers on the opening of the Session.
" The document is actually in the hands of the
printers, at the Imperial press, and will be distri-

IMPrDENT ROBBER:T.—William Haines, a rough look-
ing fellow, about 20 years of age, who said he belonged to
the London, an American ship, but who is supposed to be
a regular long shore thief, was brought before Mr. Wool-
rych, charged with stealing a concertina, a coat, and other
property belonging to John Richardson, a seaman.
Yesterday afternoon, while the crew of the ship William
and Ellea, lying in the Regent's Canal Dock, Ratcliff,
were at tea, the prisoner managed to board the vessel and
sneak into the prosecutor's bed cabin, from which he took
a concertina, a coat, and other property, and managed
to get into the ship's boat with his booty, when
some of the crew made their appearance on deck,
and saw him about to row towards the quay. He was
pursued and overtaken with the property in his possession.
He was asked if he belonged to any ship in the dock, to
which he replied, "No, I hail from the London, an
American ship.

Tire prisoner on being called upon for his defence, in a
sullen manner said—l have nothing at all to say.
Mr. Woolryoh—You have committed a very audacious
robbery—stolen that young man's things, and if he had not
recovered them it would have been a severe loss to him.
You are not known, and therefore I can deal leniently with
you. I sentence you to two months' imprisonment and
hard labour.

LOOK AFTER YOUR TlLLS.—George Thompson, a well
known thief, was brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged
with`a daring till robbery in the shop of Mr. James Everett,
corn chandler, in High •street, Poplar.
The prosecutor was absent from his shop a short time
and on his return saw the prisoner with his hand in the
till which is attached to the counter. The prisoner was in the
act of taking some silver out of the till when Mr. Everett
arrested his hand, detained him, and gave him into custody
There were silver coins in the prisoner's mouth, and it is
supposed the prisoner swallowed them, for when he was
searched only 5/d. was found upon him. It was
proved by Inspector Griffin and other officers that
the prisoner had been three times convicted, and on each
occasion gave the name of Thomas Hancock. He was con-
victed summarily in March last for stealing a copper coal
scuttle frum a public house, and sentenced to one month's
imprisonment and bard labour, and a former conviction was
then proved against the prisoner for stealing lead for which
he also underwent a month's imprisonment. The prisoner
had also been summarily convicted and sentenced to three
months' imprisonment for " picking a till" in the Victory
public house, Rhodeswell-road, Stepney.
The prisoner pleaded guilty.
Mr. Woolrych—l now sentence you to four months' im-
prisonment and hard labour in the House of Correction.

with'a daring till robbery in the shop of Mr. Ja moa Rvprett,
corn chandler, in High •street, Poplar.
The prosecutor was absent from his shop a short time
and on his return saw the prisoner with his hand in the
till which is attached to the counter. The prisoner was in the
act of taking some silver out of the till when Mr. Everett
arrested his hand, detained him, and gave him into custody
There were silver coins in the prisoner's mouth, and it is
supposed the prisoner swallowed them, for when 13,3 was
searched only 51d. was found upon him. It was
proved by Inspector Griffin and other officers that
the prisoner had been three times convicted, and on each
occasion gave the name of Thomas Hancock. He was con-
victed summarily in March last for stealing a copper coal
scuttle from a public house, and sentenced to one month's
imprisonment and hard labour, and a former conviction was
then proved against the prisoner for stealing lead for which
he also underwent a month's imprisonment. The prisoner
had also been summarily convicted and sentenced to three
months' imprisonment for " picking a till" in the Victory
public house, Rhodeswell-road, Stepney.
The prisoner pleaded guilty.
Mr. Woolrych—l now sentence you to four months' im-
prisonment and hard labour in the House of Correction.

effect I have experienced by taking only a few of your
Lozenges. I had a cough for several weeks that defied all
that had been prescribed for me ; and yet I go, completely
rid of it by taking about halt a small box of your Lozenges,

deranging the stomach or digestive organs.—l am, sir, your

IOYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail-
way Terminus, at King's-cross.
Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCH, R.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.

This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.
The Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued support,
to enable them to s dmit and relieve the distressing cases that
daily present themselves.
Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward
Mar erman, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs. Coutts and
Co. ; Drummond and Co. ; Herries and Co. ; Ransom and
Co. ; Prescott, Grote, and Co. ; Smith, Payne, and Co. ; Glyn

Although few countries present a more eligible field for
the establishment of a sound system of joint-stock banking
than Portugal, it has hitherto been nearly destitute of this
advantage. The increase in the trade of the country, and
its further development by the opening of its railways
render the introduction of such a system a matter of the
utmost importance to Portugal, whilst it will afford a legi-
timate source of profit on the capital invested for that
purpose.
The operations of the Bank of Portugal (the only one in
Lisbon) are of a very restricted nature, yst its shares com-
mand a premium of Xll 10s. per share.
In Oporto three local banks have been established within
the last few years, and are all in a prosperous condition,
their shares commanding the following premiums :-
1. The Commercial Bank, 291 per cent. premium.
2. The Oporto Mercantile Bank, 29} per cent. premium.
3. The Union of Oporto Bank (very recently established),
211 per cent, premium.
In addition to an extensive and profitable business be-
tween Portugal and the United Kingdom, in Lisbon, and
the provinces, large transactions constantly take place in
the negotiation of paper from the Brazils, in which country
it may be found desirable to establish branches.
The preliminary expenses will be strictly confined to the
actual disbursements attending the formation of the com-
pany.

Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be
obtained from the brokers, or the Secretary, at the tempor-
ary offices of the Company.

Proposed Cession of the lonian Islands to

Greece.

(From the London Gazette of last Evening.)
FOREIGN OFFI''E, JAN. 5.
Her Majesty's Government have received from the Hon.
Henry Elliot, a copy of the foilowing memorandum, which
he had delivered to the President of the Provisional Go-
vernment of Greece :

MEMORANDUM.
It is her Majesty's earnest desire to contribute to tha
welfare and prosperity of Greece.
The treaties of 1827 and 1832 bear evidence of this desire
on the part of the British Crown.
The Provisional Government of Greece declared, upon
the withdrawal of King Otho from Greece, that their mis-
sion is to maintain for Greece constitutional monarchy and
the relations of peace with all other States.
If the new Assembly of the Representatives of the Greek
nation should prove faithful to this declaration, should
maintain constitutional Monarchy, and should refrain from
all aggression against neighbouring States, and if they
should choose a Sovereign against whom no well founded
objection could be raised, her Majesty would see in this
course of conduct a promise of future freedom and happi-
ness for Greece. In such a case, her Majesty, with a view
to strengthen the Greek monarchy, would be ready to an-
nounce to the Senate and Representatives of the lonian
Islands, her Majesty's wish to see them united to the mo-
narchy of Greece, and to form with Greece one united state ;
and if this wish should be expressed also by the lonian Le-
gislature, her Majesty would then take steps for obtaining
the concurrence of the Powers who were parties to the treaty
by which the seven lonian Islands and their dependencies
were placed as a separate state under the protectorate of the
British Crown.
I am to take care, in my communications upon this sub-
ject, to make it understood that the election of a Prince,
who should be the symbol and precursor of revolutionary
disturbance, or of the adoption of an aggressive policy
towards Turkey, would prevent any relinquishment of her
Majesty's protectorate of the lonian Islands.
Her Majesty's Government trust that, in the selection of
a sovereign to rule over Greece, the Greek Assembly will
choose for their king a prince from whom they can expect a
regard far religious liberty, a respect for constitutional free-
dom, and a sincere love of peace. A prince possessing these
qualities will be fitted to promote the happiness of Greece,
and will be honoured with the friendship and confidence of
her Majesty the Queen.
