ROYAL HOSPITAL FOR INCURABLES.--A meeting
in connection with this charity was held yesterday
at the London Tavern, for the purpose of electing 10 ap-
plicants for admission. Mr. Alderman Halo occupied the
chair. In opening the proceedings he referred to the ar -
rangement under which Mr. Western Wood was to have
Presided, and expressed deep regret that, owing to the death
of that gentleman, it had devolved on him (the speaker) to
take the chair. After speaking in high terms of the cha^
meter of Mr. Wood, the chairman went on to say that per-
sons afflicted with incurable disease ought truly to be the
objects of Christian charity. He hoped that even some of
the unhappy applicants for the benefits of the hospital
might eventually be cured. He was proud to preside at a
meeting connected with a charity which had been founded
by a great and good man now no more. The number 01
b
candidates on the list was 113, and only 10 could be elected
but he hoped that on a future occasion the board would o
able to receive a greater number. He then declared that
the poll had opened, and the election was proceeded with.

"For the first time since the formation of the

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day,

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT AN HOTEL.—Julius Lewry,
described as a Prussian clerk, and attired in a kuit of light
clothes, was charged before Mr. Knox, by Sergeant Joy,
9 C, with stealing at the Hotel Conte, 21, Golden-square,
a leather pocket book, containing notes and railway passes,
a gold watch and chain, a purse, and other articles—the
notes being for the sum of £2OO, and the other property of
the value of £6O or £7o—belonging to a gentleman named
Victor Dettini, at present in France.
Sergeant Henry Joy, 9 C, said that, from information he
received, he apprehended the prisoner at Gravesend, just
as he was discharged from custody by the authorities there,
having been given into custody on the charge of robbing
an hotel in Paris, and the autho, ities not being able to de-
tain him. He told the prisoner that he was a police
officer, and that he should take him into custody for
a robbery at the Hotel Conte, 21, Golden-square, on the
Bth April last. The prisoner replied, "Oh yes, I'll tell
you all about it." He cautioned the prisoner in the usual
way, and he then said, " I did rob a gentleman at the time,
and I let myself out of the house between 2 and 3 o'clock in
the morning. I took the gentleman's luggage into my own
room from his, and I then stole the three railway passes."
The prisoner then said, " That duplicate is that of the gold
chain I stole . The gold watch I sold in France for £3l6s.
The eye-glass is the one I took, also the gentleman's pass-
port and his pocket-book. I am very sorry for it, and it
is the first time I have done anything wrong." The
prisoner afterwards said he stole one purse, and there were
lots of gold and silver coins in it, and a sovereign and a
half, but no notes. The gentleman robbed (M. Dettini),
however, said he had been robbed of £2OO in notes.
In answer to Mr. Knox, Sergeant Joy said that the pro-
secutor had been telegraphed for, but he wished for a re-
mand.
The prisoner was remanded for a week.

Shocking Accident on the London, Brighton,
and South Coast Railway.

Yesterday evening, at a quarter-past six o'clock,
an accident, attended with loss of life in several in-
stances, and severe injuries to upwards of 20 pas-
sengers, occurred on the loop line of the London,
Brighton, and South Coast Railway, near the
Streatham-common station, Up to a late hour last
night the utmost excitement prevailed in reference
to the catastrophe, and crowds of ,persons were
waking inquiries at the Victoria-station, Pimlico.
It appears that an express passenger train left
Brighton at 5 o'clock, conveying in addition to the
ordinary passengers, two companies of Grenadier
Guards, who were returning to headquarters from a
course of rifle practice at Eastbourne. The train
proceeded as usual as far as the Streatham-common
station, shortly after leaving which, from some
cause at present unexplained, the engine and 16
carriages run off the metals for a considerable dis-
tance, and came to a stop in consequence of the
boiler of the engine exploding. The shock was
terrific, the middle carriages of the train being
doubled up, and several completely smashed. A
telegram was immediately forwarded to the Vic-
toria station, and Mr. Francis, superintendent,
Messrs. Heald and Brown, inspectors, with a party
of men, proceeded by speecial train to the scene of
the accident, when it was ascertained that two
soldiers and a lady named Silver, who was ac-
companied by her husband, had lost their lives,
acd several of the passengers had broken arms
and legs, and were otherwise dreadfully in-
jured. The guard's van next the engine was
smashed to pieces, but the guard, Walker, and
underguard, Farley, escaped without injury. The
engine-driver and the bead fireman were so injured
that their recovery is doubtful.
Drs. Chart and Brown were soon on the spot,
and attended to numerous sufferers, and several of
the military and others who bad sustained severe
injuries were removed to London. The wounded
soldiers were conveyed to the Grenadier Guards
Hospital, Rochestor-row, and were immediately
attended by the surgeon, major, and other officers,
and on inquiry at that establishment at midnight
we ascertained that another soldier was dying, and
that others of the sufferers were about to submit to
amputation.

The traffic on the lino will not be impeded by the
accident, as the trains will run via Norwood
Junction. The carriage of the deceased Mrs. Silver
was waiting at the Victoria station to convey that
lady and her husband to their residence when the
telegram relative to the accident arrived.

momentous achievements, that explains the wonder-
ful growth of his fame, and will give him a place in
history amid the most renowned heroes and cap-
tains of all ages.

II The old mother Siate that bore him is not sterile,
the Confederacy for which he fought is fruitful of
men, but it is not to be expected that this war will
produce or this generation ace one who in all re-
spects will fill the great space he has left 'void.
Others may have his genius to devise, others his
energy to execute, others his purity of life, and
others his stern and solemn self-consecration to
the cause, but we may hope in vain to find all
these united in one, and their potency so felt by
his men as that, his will moving and his
spirit animating all, they shonld become, as
Jackson's men were, the very limbs of his body,
moving and acting as he willed, almost without
conscious volition of their own.

Still, let none suppose that because this great sol
dier will no more lead his invincible battalions
against the merciless and murderous invaders of our
country, we shall be unable to defend ourselves
against the hosts who muster for our destruction.
The same Providence who gave us Jackson still rules
the affairs of men, and though He has taken the
mighty chieftain from us, He leaves us his illus-
trious example to follow, and his grand spirit to fire
every heart and nerve every arm. The men who
for two years have felt the influence of such a pre-
sence, whose hearts burn with glowing memories of
what he was, will never yield to mortal foe. Jack-
son, though dead, will still fight in the men whom
he so often led to victory.

PROPOSED STATUE TO JACKSON.

The Richmond Sentinel, of the 14th, says that
measures are already initiated to obtain a bronze
statue of the late Gen. Jackson, and place it on the
plateau in front of the south portico of the Capitol.
The remains of Gen. Jackson were conveyed to the
Central cars yesterday, en route to his late home in
Lexington. They were accompanied by several
members of his Staff and persbnal friends.

THE CHINESE MILITIA.

Mr. LIDDELL asked the Under Secretary of State for
War whether British officers tempot arily employed in com-
manding or drilling Chinese militia, were still borne on the
strength of their respective regiments ; whether, while so
employed, they received her Majesty's half-pay; and whe-
ther their promotion went on in the ordinary course ?
The Marquis of HARTINGTON replied that the officers
were, strictly speaking, only lent, but were nevertheless
available for any duty that their own service might require
of them. They received regimental fall pay, and their pro-
motions went on in the ordinary way, but they were not
permitted to go beyond the 30 mile radius.

THE NEW REFORMS IN RUSSIA.—The Nord of
yesterday says that the imperial ukase relative to
corporal punishments completely exempts women and some
classes of individuals " atneng whom civilisation is most
extended," as, for example, teachers of primary schools—
persons who have finished their education in district col-
leges and other schools—peasants exercising elective func-
tions—and lastly, curates of parishes. The nobility and the
merchants of the two first guilds have for a long time been
exempt from corporal punishment. The peasants and
bourgeois who do not belong to the categories thus enume-
rated will only be sulject to the lighter corporal punish-
ments in certain cases specified bylaw. The knout and the
marque are definitively erased from the penal code. The
other punishments are sensibly diminished. Analogous
modifications are introduced in the
penal code of the army
and navy. The soldiers and the sailors newly incorporated
and those of old standing who hive been distinguished up
to this time by good conduct will not be subject to corporal
punishments except under the decree of a tribunal, and the
power of the officers is sensibly limited in relation to the
punishments of soldiers and sailors. The punishment of
whipping with rods, and of the kodtki in the marine, are
definitively abolished.

HOLYHEAD HARBOUR.

Colonel DUNNE moved for a select committee to
quire into the state of Holyhead Harbour, with a view to
ascertain the best method to afford safe and efficient accom-
modation for the vessels engaged in the Irish mail service,
at.d for the passengers conveyed by them.
Mr, LEFROY seconded the motion.

Mr. GIBSON suggested that the house should wait
until the correspondence on the subject had been presented
and which would be ready in a day or two.

Mr. HERBERT censured the Government very strongly
for not having kept their part of the contract with the
steamboat company the last eight years. He should sup-
port the motion.

Lord NAAS said there ought never to have been any
correspondence to wait for, and the blame for the delays
that occurred was entirely due to the Government.

After some further discussion, the debate was adjourned
on a division by 40 to 35.
On the motion of Mr. F. PEEL, leave was given to in-
troduce a bill to enable landed proprietors to construct
works for drainage and improvement of land in Ireland.
On the motion of Mr. CAIRD, leave was given to intro-
duce a bill to enlarge the sheriffs' small debt jurisdiction in
Scotland.

THE POLISH INSURRECTION.
BROMBERG (Province of Posen), MAY 6,
The Bromberger Zeitung of to-day says
" On the 2d inst., the corps of insurgents
under Taczanowski, was defeated near Bineszeno.
" Taczanowski himself was wounded."

ST. PETERSBURG, APRIL 25.

The Northern Bee, which in common with all
other Russian papers is subjected to the Imperial
censorship, publishes a correspondence from Berlin
which is worthy of notice.
It says :—" When the Polish insurrection broke
out Herr von Bismark-Schonhausen offered his
services to Russia, although the latter power
neither asked nor required them. King Frederick
William agreed to the proposal made by his
Minister to conclude a convention ; not that he an-
ticipated that the insurrection would prove a source
of danger to either Prusbia or Russia, but sole!)
with the view of doing a favour to his ally Russia,
and particularly to Austria."

The Northern Bee then states the ground upon
which its assertion is made.

A similar style of writing is adopted by all the
Russian organs in reference to the Prusso,Russian
Convention, and they are unanimous in stating that
Prussia in her zaal was desirous of bringing about
and actually proposed a triple alliance, but that
Austria was wise enough to zEject.
The conflicts which have taken place between the
Absolutionists and the Progressists both in the
Imperial Council and in the Chambers have, it is
said, caused the Emperor much disquietude.
Vague reports are circulated of an approaching
Palace revolution. Complaints are made of the
want of determination in the authorities here and
the lack of judgment displayed by the Government

in Warsaw.
The Invalide Russe confirms the statement that
the Emperor had called on all privates on furlough
with the object of increasing the strength of each
battalion of the Infantry reserve division to 1,000
men.

Much popular excitement prevails in St. Peters-
burg, and revolutionary placards, headed with the
words "Down with the Romanoffs," " Down with
the Germane,' are occasionally found posted up in
the streets.

ITALY•
TURIN, MAY 6.

The brigands continue to commit daring exploits,
but the authorities are adopting such measures as
cannot fail to succeed in putting a stop to them.
The brigands on the Roman territory, after
having assembled in the valley of Pietro, divided
into small bands, which are preparing to cross the
frontier near Avezzano.

The royal troops have taken up positions which
will enable them to cut off their retreat.

It is asserted that the documents collected by
the committee on brigandage fully prove the com-
plicity of the Pontifical Government.

MEXICO.

VERA CRUZ (via Cadiz), April 15.
Gen. Berthier dispersed the forces under Comon-
fort, wl.o was marching on Puebla with reinforce-
ments. Ortega, who commands in Puebla, has
offered to capitulate on favourable conditions. Gen.
Forey, however, dcmanda the unconditional surren-
der of the city.

The municipality and the ladies of Puebla have
supplicated General Forey not to destroy the city.
The General answered that he hoped to obtain its
submission without firing a shot.

Ortega, with 15,000 men, has made an attempt to
force his way through the French columns, in order
to get to Mexico, but was repulsed with considerable
loss, and compelled to return to Puebla.
NEW YORK, April 24, Morning.
The New York journals publish news from Vera
Cruz to the 12th inst., via Havannah.

French accounts stated that Comonfort, in at-
tempting to join Ortega in Puebla, was defeated
with considerable loss. Ortega was also repulsed
in attempting to make a sally from Puebla in the
direction of the capital. Ortega offered to capitu-
late, but General Forey refused, insisting upon an
unconditional surrender. In reply to a deputation
of the inhabitants, General Foray promised not to
bombard Puebla, as he had sufficient appliances to
compel the garrison to surrender. Provisions were
so plentiful in Vera Cruz that the French were said
to be selling them to the inhabitants and re-ship-
ping them to France.

NEW YORK, April 25, Afternoon.

The French corvette Bertholet, arrived here this
morning, from Vera Cruz on the 7th. Her com-
mander states that the reports of a French defeat at
Puebla are erroneous. All was quiet at Puebla
when the Bertholet left Vera Cruz.
