were, of course, compelled to quit the fitld, and they repaired
to Swindon. They afterwards returned to London with the
view of proceeding by ordinary train to Purfleet. The second

EEALTH OF LONDON.

(From the Registrar-General's Weekly Return)

The deaths in London, which reached 1,514 in the lest
week in July, declined to 1,334 in the week that ended Sa-
turday, Aug. 29 Those of persons under 20 years of age
decreased from 870 to 798 ; and those which occurred at 60
years of age and upwards fell from 246 to 173. The average
number of deaths derived from 10 corresponding week, viz.,
the 35th week in each of the years 1853• 62, with the omis-
sion of deaths from cholera in 1854, and with a correction
for increase of population, is 1,191. The actual number in
last week, therefore, exceeds the average by 143.
The deaths from smallpox in the four previous weeks
were successively 43, 49, 45, 39, and last week 31. Tho
average for the corresponding week in the last 10 years was
nine.

The deaths from measles were 11; from scarlatina and
diphtheria, 141; from whooping-cough, 29; from typhus
and other fevers, 49; from diarrhcea, cholera, and dysen-
tery, 194; from phthisis, 124; from pneumonia, 31, and
from heart disease, 61.
At 20, Dartmouth• terrace, Rotherhithe, on Aug. 23d, the
wife of an engineer, aged 37 years, died of premonitory
diarrhcea (two days), Asiatic cholera (27 hours) sporadic."
The medical attendant states that the air of this otherwise
open and healthy neighbourhood is frequently poisoned by
emanations from a fish-manure factory.
Last week the births of 865 boys and 840 girls, in all 1,705
children, were registered in London. In the ten correspond-
ing weeks of the years 1853 62 the average number (cor-
rected) was 1,859.
•

At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height
of the barometer in the week was 29-52 in. The reeding
of the barometer decreased from 29 88 at the beginning
of the week to 23-30 in. by 9 p.m. on the 25th; increased
to 29-38 in. by 9 a.m. on the 26th ; decreased to 29.23 in
by 9 a.m. on the 27th; increased to `..9.52 by 9 a,m.
on the 28th; decreased to 29-48 in. by 9 p.m. on the same
day, and was 29.69 in. at the end of the week. The mewl
temperature of the air in the week was 60 0 deg., which is
0•I deg. below the average of the same week in 43 years.
The highest day reading of the thermometer was 74.6 deg.,
and occurred on Sunday. The lowest night reading was
50.3 deg , and occurred on Tuesday. The range of tempera-
ture in the week was, therefore, 24.3 deg. The difference
between the mean dew-point temperature and air tempera •
ture was 7.5 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air
was 77, complete saturation being represented by 100. The
wind was daily in the south-west. Rain fell chiefly on
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. There was thunder
on the evening of Tuesday and Friday.

A COMFORTABLE VlSlTOR.—William Hardwick was
charged with being drunk and creating a disturbance at
the house of Mr. Charles Buckingham, Neville's-terrace,
Chelsea.

Complainant gaid that an annoyance had been caused
twice at his house yesterday by the defendant, wh3 came
there drunk and refused to leave. _ _ _

Mr. Paynter—What is he ? Do you know anything of
him ?
Complainant—He is a tinker, and has been employed to
do some repairs by my family. Those were done a short
time ago, and on his coming again it was pointed out to
him that the work had come to pieces, upon which he
undertook to mend it again gratuitously, but having done
it insisted upon payment again, which was refused.
Mr. Paynter—Did he then go away ?
Complainant—No. He seated himself in my passage
and behaved very offensively.
Mr. Paynter—What did he do ?

Complainant—He filled his tobacco pipe, and then called
for a light, that he might smoke and enjoy himself, and
had the impudence to inform my family that he was sorry
I was not there, that if I was I should have so much plea-
sure in taking a pipe with him. He had been there in the
morning, and then came again at half-past nine at night.
I found him making a great disturbance at the latter named
hour, and as I could not get rid of him I was obliged to
givee him into custody.
John Dutton, 315 13, said he found the defendant making
a great noise, and he was drunk. He said that if the gen-
tleman did not pay him, he would pay the gentleman.
Prisoner said he was very sorry. He was drunk.

Mr. Paynter—lf you have any claim against this gen•
tleman you can go to the County Court, and not conduce
yourself in this disgraceful manner at his house.

He was ordered to find bail.

MARKETS--This Day.
London, England, 1863-01-01

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

There was a fair average number of beasts in to-day's
market, in but middling condition. All breeds sold heavily
at a decline in the quotations, compared with Monday of
2d per 81bs. The top figure for the best Scots was 4s 10d
per 81bs. Sheep—the show of which was limited, ruled
heavy ; nevertheless, prices were well supported. The best
Downs realised is 10d per Sibs. We have to report a very
dull sale for calves, and a reduction in the currencies of 4d
to 6d per 81bs, The highest price was 4s 6cl per 81bs. In
pigs and mulch cows very little was doing at barely late
rates.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Shipping and Comm? cial List of Dec. 20.)

The want of some definite financial scheme, whereby the
enormous expenditures of the incoming year may be pro-
vided for, together with the continued apparent disinclina-
tion of Congress to interpose its autherity in the premises,
and the unfavourable and unsatisfactory condition of affairs
pertaining to war matters, combine to keep financial affairs
in an unsettled and unsatisfactory condition, rendering the
public mind decidedly uneasy in regard to the future. The
contradictory character of Mr. Chase's report renders it
next to impossible to ascertain anything in regard to his in-
tentions, though there is a very general impression abroad
that he really favours the issuing of demand-notes to a suf-
ficient amount to meet the Government requirements with-
out a further resort to loans, which, however, his report re-
commends in preference to legal tender notes.
We still adhere to the belief that Congress will resolve
upon furnishing the wherewithal to carry on the war in this
manner in preference to borrowing. Tho rejection of Mr.
Chase's banking scheme is a foregone conclusion—as for
that matter, it doubtless was before the public saw the pro-
position. The active speculative movement in stocks is un-
doubtedly based upon the hypothesis of further large issues
of demand-notes, which will, of course, greatly inflate all
kinds of merchandise, by widening the distance between
the currency and gold.
Great as is the public interest in the financial programme
of the Government, it is almost completely overshadowed
by the intense interest which is now felt in all quarters in
regard to its future military programme. The repulse of
the great Potomac army,
and the reported repulse of the
army in North Carolina, have cast a gloom over the public
mind, and occasioned considerable uneasiness regarding the
future; while there is a very general apprehension in
financial and commercial circles that the military " dead-
lock" will result in the much-dreaded intervention of the
European Powers.

Business has been very dull during the past three days,
and in some departments it has come to almost a positive
standstill. A few commodities have been quite freely dealt
in, but on the whole the New York markets have rarely
been duller or more unsatisfactory to the merchant. The
volume of business since Tuesday is small. Tho steamer's
news occasioned some movement in several commodities,
but, as a general thing, the influence was not marked.
Gold has fluctuated somewhat, but the changes have not
been of especial importance. The transactions have been
comparatively heavy, both on 'Change and in the " street,"
and the bulk of the sales have been at about 32/ to 32/ per ,
cent. premium.

Foreign exchange has ruled comparatively steady, the
vibrations in gold not being sufficient to exert any influence.
Sterling has sold to only a moderato extent, and chiefly at
146 for bankers' bills. The market has been dull, and the
business for the three days is small. We quote bills on
London 1441 to 146 per cent. ; France, 3f 8.5 c to 3f 90c.

At the Court levee the King spoke to the follow.

"He entreated the Parliament to put trust in
him, and expressed the hope that 1863 would be
a happier year than 1862. He alluded to the
folly of dreamers, who endangered public order.
When the pacification of the Southern Provinces
was achieved, the national cause would be fully
triumphant. The spirit of the army was most
excellent, and wholly Italian. With it and a con-
cordant nation the world might be defied."

FRANCE.

PARIS, JAN. 1.

The Moniteur of this morning publishes an Im-
perial decree, fixing the number of Deputies to be
elected in future at 283.
The Moniteur also announces some nominations
to the Legion of Honour.
The body of the late Archbishop of Paris which
was embalmed yesterday morning, will lie in
state this afternoon in one of the rooms of the
Archiepiscopal Palace arranged for the purpose.
The funeral will, it is thought, take place on Mon-
day next. As Cardinals have a right to the same
civil and military honours as Marshals of France,
deputations of the great bodies of the State will
attend, and the Emperor and the Princes of
the Imperial family will be represented. The
various French Cardinals will come to Paris to pay
a last mark of respect to their late venerable col-
league.

OLD LONDON.

Early in the 15th century, Henry IV., who was mainly
indebted to the Londoners for raising him to the throne,
indulged the City by restoring divers commercial rights, of
which they had been deprived by the Crown, and giving
them power to collect tolls in Cheapside, Billingsgate, and
Smithfield. There was a third plague in 1407, which was
fatal to 30,000 people, and in the same year corn fell to 35.
4d. per quarter; at the same period the chronicles speak of
various public diversions at Clerkenwell, which lasted fur
eight days ; a principal feature of these amusements was the
performance of a mystery play, on the subject of the Crea-
tion of the World, which was followed at Smithfield by a
grand tournament. In 1410 (according to Maitland),
" John Bradley, a tailor, and convert to Wycliffe's doc-
trines, refusing to recant, was carried to the market, and
there being secured in a barrel, was burnt to ashes."
Prince Henry, compassionating his sufferings, would have
snatched him from the flames, and because he was grievi-
ously maimed by the fire, would have given him a pension
of 3d. per day ; but he constantly refused to own his heresy,
and so died a martyr's death. This tragedy was suc-
ceeded by a more savage execution; Sir John Oldcastle,
Lord Cobham, on suspicion of Lollardism, was roasted
to death by a slow fire in St. Giles's fields. Guildhall was
built in the same year, and in 1415, the Mayor, Sir Henry
Barton, made the first attempt to light the streets, by or-
dering housekeepers to hang out lanterns in winter, between
Allhallows and Candlemas. Watchmen, in long coats, and
halberd in hand, passed through the streets after dark, cry-
ing at intervals "Hang out your lights." Shakspere com-
memorates the rebellion of Jack Cade. That event happened
in 1450, and was of a very serious description. Alter en-
camping on Blackheath, his numbers became so formidable
that he resolved to take possession of London. The citizens
favoured him. On his entrance he struck London Stone
with his sword, exclaiming " Now is Mortimer Lord of the
City" (such was his assumed name). Occupying Guildhall,
he submitted Lord Say to a mock trial, and commanding
him to be taken to the standard in Chepe his head was struck
off. Sir Jas. Cromer was murdered in like manner. Still
Cade continued popular, and was entertained by Alderman
Malpas at a sumptuous feast. In a few days, however, he
quarrelled with his hosts, a conflict ensued in the streets,
his army, on promise of pardon, dispersed, and Cade, fleeing
for his life, was slain by the Sheriff of Kent,—City Press.

AN EFFECTUAL REMEDY.—LAMBERT'S
ASTHMATIC BALSAM, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and incipient con-
sumption. It frequently cures persons whom the faculty
pronounce incurable, admirably allays the tickling which pro-
vokes frequent coughing. In approaching consumption its
effects are truly beneficial. Persons deprived of' sleep, or even
lying down for fear of suffocation, may depend on relief in
a few minutes after taking it. Prepared only and sold by

not comply with the call; whereupon a tumult arose and
the performance was interrupted, until the prima donna

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

There was a fair average number of beasts in to-day's
market, in but middling condition. All breeds sold heavily
at a decline in the quotations, compared with Monday of
2d per 81bs. The'top figure for the best Scots was 4s 10d
per Sibs. Sheep—the show of which was limited, ruled
heavy ; nevertheless, prices were well supported. The best
Downs realised 58 10d per 81bs. We have to report a very
dull sale for calves, and a reduction in the currencies of 4d
to Gd per Sibs, The highest price was 4s Gd per Sibs. In
pigs and milch cows very little was doing at barely late
rates.

The disastrous defeat of the Federal forces at
Fredericksburg has caused dismay among the war
party, and public indignation against the Govern-
ment is very great.

Public meetings are about to be called to con-
sider the state of the nation, and the President is
in'teked in vehement terms to change his whole
Cabinet. The Neu; Fork Journal of Commerce
asserts that if
of compelling there were any constitutional method
t' resignation of the President and
Vice-President,
and placing a new man in the
seat of Abraham Lincoiti, the people would em-
ploy it.

In the Senate a resolution ha% been introduced
directing the Committee on the Condixet of the War
to inquire into the facts relating to the battle, and
particularly as to what officer or officers are respoi-
sible.

RUSSIA.

ST. PETERSBURG, JAN. 1.
An Imperial ukase, published to-day, extends
the privilege of drawing bills of exchange to
persons not following commercial pursuits, includ-
ing those belonging to civil or military profes-
sions.

The ukase further states that the law on bills of
exchange will, in future, be applicable to military
officers and public functionaries.

EXETER.

The retirement of Mr. Alfred Seymour from the
position of candidate for the representation of
Exeter has induced some of the Liberal party to
desire another champion to fight their battle in
league with Mr. Coleridge. They have even fixed
upon their man, though no steps have been taken
to bring him forward. This gentleman is Mr.
Bowring, son of Sir John Bowring, of Chinese no-
toriety, an old Exonian, and a magistrate.-- Western
