TILE FORGERY BY A CLERGYMAN.--At the
Blackburn Town Hall, on Monday, the Rev. Joseph
Wood, incumbent of Clayton-le-Moor, near Blackburn, was
brought tap on remand, before Messrs. Hoolo and Baines,
on the charge of forging and uttering a forged receipt for
£lOO, purporting to be an acceptance or receipt for £4OO
from the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National
Debt. The theory of the defence on behalf of the prisoner
was that the prosecution had originated in a malicious feel-
ing against the rev. gentleman, and that one person who
had not shown himself in front had ()tiered to make up
£2OO if the rev, gentleman would vacate his incumbency.,

HAINES V. GREY.

This was an administration suit to enable the plaintiff,
a widow and a minor, to administer to the estate of her hus-
band, an ironmaster, at Tipton, near Birmingham. The
defendant is the daughter of the testator by a former mar-
riage. The amount of the estates was valued at £7,000.
Dr. Spinks appeared for the plaintiff; Dr. Dealt and
Dr. Swaby for the defendants.

Dr. Spinks said that the testator left his estate to his
widow, who was a minor, with certain benefits to the chil-
dren of a former marriage. The contention was whether
any of the circumstances of the case disentitled the widow
to her rights. In the first place she was a minor,
but that circumstance would not be held sufficient to dis•
turb the practice. It was insinuated that immorality had
taken place previous to the marriage, but that ceremony
should be taken as condonation. Such an insinuation was
an argument for costs against the defendant.

Dr. Dean contended that the estate was of a nature to
require supervision, which the widow would be supposed
not to be able to give ft. That it was much involved, and
might be greatly depreciated, if not looked after. The
father of the widow was hardly the fittest person to have
control. There were contentious proceedings in Chancery
which would decide some of the claims arising out of the
case.
His Lordship reserved his judgment.

change against ths acceptor.
The Court refused the application.

METROPOLITAN WATERS IN DECEMBER, 1862.

According to the analyses of Dr. R. D. Thomson,
F.R.S., the waters of London are more impure than
in the preceding month, as usually happens in win-
ter, their sources being exposed to impurities which
have no means of access to the pastoral waters of
Glasgow and Manchester. The impurity of the
the New River still continues greater than in the
earlier part of the season. The organic impurity of
the Kent water was thoroughly oxydised, and
therefore not comparatively unwholesome.

At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
height of the barometer in the week was 29.258 in.
On Mond,,y and Tuesday the mean reading was
below 29in. The readings fell from 29.38 in. on
Sunday to 28.891 in. on Tuesday, and rose to 29.65 in.
on Friday. The mean temperature of the air in the
week was 40.1 deg., which is 4.2 deg. above the
average of the same week in 43 years (as deter-
mined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily tempe-
rature was above the average on every day of the
week, but the excess was most considerable on the
first three days. The highest day temperature
was 48 6 deg. on Monday. The lowest night tem-
perature was 29.9 deg. on Friday. The range of
temperature in the week was therefore 18.7 deg.
The mean daily range was 9.5 deg. The difference
between the mean dew point temperature and air
temperature was 2.7 deg. The mean degree of hu-
midity of the air was 90, complete saturation being
represented by 100, which point was nearly ap-
proached on three days. The wind blew from the
south-west. till Tuesday afternoon, when it changed
to south•-east, and blew generally from this point
during the resi of the week. The amount of rain was
771 n., nearly all of which fell on the first three
days. The mean of the highest temperature of the
Thames was 43 6 deg.; that of the lowest 41 deg.

HEALTH OF LONDON.

(From the Registrar General's Report.)
roe de,tils iii London in the week that en &d on
Saturday wore 1,535, and were nearly the same in
number as thoek., of the previous week. The aven)ges,
DI: caber of deaths in the second wezk of ten years,
18.53-62, is, with a correction for increasing popu-
lation, 1,492; and the deaths in last week were,
therefore, more by 43 than they would have been if
the average rate of mortality had prevailed.
The births in last week exceeded the deaths in
the same period by 419.
There were 24 deaths from smallpox in the week.
The complaint appears to prevail chiefly in the east
districts. Measles was fatal in 61 cases, 6of which
were in the Belgravia sub-district, 6 in Pancras,and
6 in Islington. Eighty-two deaths were referred to
scarlatina, and 13 to diphtheria. Scarlatina is comb
mon in Marylebone, where 11 deaths from it were
returned in the week. It caused 5 deaths in the sub
histrict of Hackney. Nearly a half of the deaths
of 62—occurred in the
from typhus—viz., 28 out
East districts.

The most fatal of all the diseases in the list was
bronchitis, the deaths from which rose to 194;
phthisis was fatal in the next degree, and rose to 174.
An interpreter, aged 50, who had been brought
from 13k, Queen's•road, Chelsea, to St. George's
Hospital, is stated to have died on the last day of
1862 from "starvation.'' The son of a widow, aged
3 months, died from want at 27, Cambridge-street,
Camden-town. A boy, aged 1 year, died of " scro-
fula, caused by impure vaccination."
A family at 1, Glocester-row, Hoxton Old Town,
has suffered very severely from typhoid fever.
Of eight nonagenarians, whose deaths are re-
corded, the oldest was a widow, aged 96 years.
Last week the births of 1,024 boys and 930 girls,
in all 1,954 children, were registered in London. I❑
the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1852-61
the average number (corrected) was 1,946.

MR. ALFRED MELLON'S CONCERTS.

These admirable concerts, which for the last five
or six weeks have attracted overflowing audiences,
terminated on Saturday evening with the benefit
of Mr. Alfred Mellon. The theatre was crowded
to excess in every part, and after listening to
perhaps ono of the best selections that has been
performed during the run of the concerts, the
audience parted with Mr. Mellon in a manner
that must have been exceedingly gratifying to the
able and talented conductor.

ADELPHI THEATRE.

The season here closed on Saturday with the
benefit of Mr. B. Webster, on which occasion he
appeared in perhaps his best and greatest part, viz.,
Triplet, in the comedy of " Masks and Faces." It
is quite unnecessary to say more than that the per-
formance elicited the most enthusiastic applause.
Mrs. Stirling, of course, represented her great cha-
racter of Peg Woffington. Time, in both instances,
has rather mellowed than weakened the represen-
tation. Mr. Webstei's Triplet is one of those
exquisite portraits, broad, rich, and genial, and
yct at the same time full of the minutest touches,
which is only the product of the most finished art ;
and Mrs. Stirling's Peg is one of the most varied
and charming pieces of acting ever witnessed on
the metropolitan stage.
At the fall of the curtain the applause was im-
mense, and in a few moments Mr. Webster again
appeared and spoke as follows :

Ladies and Gentlemen—l feel highly complimented by
your presence here this evening, and at so short a notice.
I did not intend to close at all, as my redecorating and
painting has been going on for the last month, constantly,
though imperceptibly-, in consequence, I presume, of the
attention of the public having been riveted on the natural
and supernatural appeaarnces on this aide the footlights
but the dome obliged me to succumb to necessity, and shut
my doors in the midst of most profitable receipts, You
will, I am sure, be pleased to hear that the whole season
has been very prosperous. Though we have been dabbling
in illusions lately, this is no illusion. I perceive that since
my taking out a license for spirits the whole town has been
addicted to them, but I am happy to say without intem-
perance. As the theatre will only close for three days, 1
can scarcely call it a vacation, especially as the house will
be during that time crowded with artists of every descrip-
tion ; but, in this instance, entirely at my expense. How-
ever, thanks to my patrons, I can well afford anything for
your comfort and gratification ; it will be a pleasure to me.
On 2huraday next I reopen my doors, with a new drama
and a new actress of high American repute, who will, I am
sure, receive a hearty English welcome, and, I hope, a
genuine success. With a grateful sense of the past favours
of many years, and a confidence in them for the future, I
beg to thank you most sincerely, and, in the fashion of the
day, say, a la Francais, "Au revoir !"
It may be stated that the young actress from America to
whom Mr. Webster alluded is Miss Bateman, the daughter
of a distinguished actor in that country, and one of the two
sisters who, as the " Bateman children," astonished the
London public some 12 years ago.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

The supply of foreign stock on offer in to-day's market
was again extensive. Most of the Dutch sheep and calves
appeared in good, in some instances prime, condition ; but
the quality of the beasts was inferior.
From our own grazing districts, the arrivals of beasts
were extensive as to number, but somewhat deficient in
quality. Very few Scotch beasts were on offer; but there
was a fair sprinkling from Ireland. All breeds met a heavy
inquiry at a decline in the quotations compared with
Monday last of 2d per 81bs, and a clearance was not effected.
The top figure for the best Scots, &c., was 4s 10d per Blbs.
This, however, was obtained in very few instances.
The receipts from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire, comprised 2,950 short-horns and
crosses; from other parts of England, 600 various breeds;
from Scotland, 10 Scots; and, from Ireland, 600 oxen and
heifers.

The show of sheep was seasonably good, and, for the
most part, in prime condition. Nearly all breeds moved
off slowly, at 2d per Sibs less money. The best old Downs
changed hands at 5s 2d per 81bs.
We have to report a dull sale for calves— the supply of
which was good—at 4d pet Slbs less money than en this
day se'nnight.

There was a fair average business doing in pigs, at very
full prices.

WESTMINSTER.

DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE.—
John Ryan, a low-looking fellow of about 18 years of age,
was charged with assaulting Charles Gilbert, an Irishman,
and stealing from him 3s.
Prosecutor said—l was going along College-street, on
Sunday morning, at half-past 1, when prisoner and two
more men came up to me and asked me for a light. I re-
plied that I had none, and turned away, but had not gone
above 10 paces before the prisoner came up, seized me by
the back of the neck, and threw me down. The others
then commenced kicking, striking, and pulling me about.
Prisoner kicked me in the head and rifled my pockets,
taking 3s. and a screw of tobacco, all I possessed. My coat
was torn all to pieces and I was rendered almost insensible.
A gentleman came to my assistance, with a constable, and
prisoner was given into custody.
Thomas APDonald sworn—l was in College-street on
Saturday night, and witnessed the assault. Prosecutor

Joseph William Todd said—l saw the struggle and
went to the assistance of prosecutor with a constable.
Prisoner ran away on our approach, and we pursued him.
He threw himself down in a doorway, but was overtaken
by the constable, and I pursued the other man, but failed
to catch him.

Police-constable 307 B, confirmed the above statement,
but added that the prisoner kicked and fought vary much,
and with the assistance of a police sergeant he was taken
to the station.

evi-
dence, and added, that prisoner struck and kicked him.
Sergeant Young, B, corroborated the constable's
Prosecutor was knocked about very much. His head bled
profusely and his eye was closed.
Mr. Arnold thought it very strange that the prosecutor
should have said he held the prisoner, whereas he escaped.
The sergeant said that might be accounted for by the
state of insensibility in which the prosecutor was.
Prisoner said he was drunk, and was remanded till
Thursday next,i

Atmospheric Changes of the Alps.

Professor Tyndall sends us for publication some curious
Alpine experiences of Mr. Robert Spencer Watson and his
party in the region of the Jungfrau. The suddenness of the
atmospheric changes will recall the similar observations of
Mr. Whymper on the Matterhorn, recorded in our pages a
fortnight ago. Mr. Watson says—" On the 10th of July I
visited the Col de la Jungfrau from the 2Eggisch-horn, in
company with my wife and Messrs. JohnSewerby andW . G.
Adams, of Marlborough College. We had with us as guides
J. M. Claret, of Chamouni, and a young man from the hotel.
The early morning was br;ght, and gave promise of a fine
day, but as we approached the Col clouds settled down upon
it, and on reaching it we encountered so severe a storm
of wind, snow, and hail, that we were unable to stay more
then a few minutes. As we descend d, the snow continued
to fall so densely that we lost our way, and for some time
we were wandering up the Lotsch Sattel. We had hardly
discovered cur mistake when a loud peal of thunder was
heard, and shortly after I observed that a strange singing
sound like that of a kettle was issuing from my alpenstock.
We halted, and finding that all the axes and stocks emitted
the same sound, stuck them into the snow. The guide from
the hotel now pulled off his cap, shouting that his head
burned, and his hair was seen to have a similar ap-
pearance to that which it would have presented had
he been on an insulated stool under a powerful
electric machine. We all of us experienced the sensation
of pricking or burning in some part of the body, more
especially in the head and face, my hair also standing on
end in an uncomfortable but very amusing manner. The
snow gave-out a hissing, as though a heavy shower of hail
were falling ; the veil on the wide-awake of one of the party
stood upright in the air, and on waving our hands the sing-
ing sound issued loudly from the fingers. Whenever a peal
of thunder was heard the phenomena ceased, to be resumed
before the echoes had died away. At these times we felt
shocks, more or less violent, in those portions of the body
which were most affected. By one of these my right arm
was paralysed so completely that I could neither use nor
raise it for several minutes, nor indeed until it had been
severely rubbed by Claret, and I suffered severe pain in it
at the shoulder-joint for several hours. At half-past twelve
the clouds began to pass away, and the phenomena finally
ceased, having lasted 25 minutes. We saw no lightning,
and were puzzled at first as to whether we should be afraid
or amused. The young guide was very much alarmed, but
Claret, who is devoid of fear, and who had twice before
heard the singing (though without any of the other symp-
toms), laughed so heartily that we joined him. No evil
effects were felt afterwards beyond the inconvenience aris-
ing from the burning of our faces, which, though we had
no sun, were almost livid in hue when we arrived_ at the
llggiaoh-horn,--Athenown.

EGYPTIAN HALL, PICCADILLY.

Mr. Telbin's magnificent moving diorama of the
Holy Land, Egypt, Syria, and Turkey is now at-
tracting all London to the Egyptian Hall, Picca-
dilly. The series of paintings exhibited illustrate
the tour of the Price.) of Wales in the East, each
one being a perfect marvel of scenic art—the Holy
Sepulchre, Ford of the Jordan, Nazareth, Beyrout,
and the interior of a Turk's House perhaps eliciting
the most rapturous applause. The enjoyment of
the exhibition is heightened by the delivery of a
very entertaining descriptive lecture by Mr. Arthur
Matheson, selected from the writings of Sharp,
Bartlett, Warburton, Kinglake, Bremer, the Rev.
J. AT. Bellew, &c., and also some very excellent
music, both vocal and instrument. We can confi-
dently recommend a visit to this diorama, as it
is certainly one of the best eXklibitions of the art
in the metropolis.

THE KING OF GREECE•

The Journal de St. Petersbourg gives some details
respecting the journey of the King of Greece. It
says—" On the 21st September, the day of the ar-
rival of the King of Greece at the imperial resi-
dence of Tsarskt e-Se:o, a grand dinner was given
at the palace. On the 22d, in the afternoon, his
Majesty the Emperor held a review of the garrison
of Tsarskce Selo. His Majesty the King of the
Greeks was present."
A letter from Vilna, dated Sept. 20, says :—" To-
day his Majesty George 1., King of the Greeks,
arrived at the Vilna railway station on his way
to St. Petersburg. His Majesty entered our city
at six p.m., accompanied by Count Sponneck
and two officers of the Danish navy ; he wore the
costume of a Danish Admiral. General Moura-
vitt'. IL, Commander of the district and of the Go-
vernments of Vitebsk and Mohilew, accompanied
by his staff, waited upon the King. At dinner the
King proposed the health of our august Sovereign,
while the national hymn struck up. General Mou-
ravieff responded by proposing the health of the
King, a toast which was received with loud cheers.
A large multitude had assembled at the station to
get a glimpse of his Majesty."

the tour of the Prince of Wales in the East, each
one being a perfect marvel of scenic art—the Holy
Sepulchre, Ford of the Jordan, Nazareth, Beyrout,
and the interior of a Turk's House perhaps eliciting
the most rapturous applause. The enjoyment of
the exhibition is heightened by the delivery of a
very entertaining descriptive lecture by Mr. Arthur
Matheson, selected from the writings of Sharp,
Bartlett, Warburton, Xinglake, Bremer, the Rev.
J. M. Bellew, &c., and also some very excellent
music, both vocal and instrument. We can confi-

is certainly one of the best exhibitions of the ei-,rt
in the metropolis.
