POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—.Tune 3.

LAMBETH.—ANNOYING A PARISH DOCTOR.
—Ann Bracklebridge, a decent-looking young
woman, residing with her mother in Charles-
street, Oakley-street, Lambeth, appeared to
answer to a summons charging her with having
used abusive and insulting language to Mr. Walter
Monday, one of the surgeons for the parish of Lam-
beth, residing in Moor-place, Kennington.
Mr. Monday said that for some considerable time
he had been subjected to the greatest possible an-
noyance from the prisoner, who, unfortunately for
him, was a pauper patient in his district of the
parish. It was her custom, he said, to spend hours
in knocking at his door for her medicine, of which
she could swallow an illimitable quantity, and on
the last occasion she spent ten hours at his house, so
that not only himself but his neighbours were an-
noyed. On one occasion she walked into his par-
lour, took possession-of a sofa, and swore she should
not get off it until she had her medicine, and when
the medicine had been brought to her, she would
not leave until she had a wine-glass brought to her
to take the medicine out of. (Laughter.)
Defendant—Well, you know I have an internal
disease, and require medicine and cannot do with-
out it.
The Magistrate—What sort of medicine do you
give her ?

Mr. Monday—Well, Sir, some of it is

anything but agreeable; but it is all the same to
her. She will swallow, I may say, bucketfuls

"AN ORGANIC CHANGE."—Somebody has fur•
nisked us with the following Sliaksperian variation, which,
he is surprised to observe, seems to have escaped the atten-
tion of Mr. P. Collier's sagacious, but impalpable corrector;
it appears to us not only plausible but certain. Jessica
never uttered the sentiment attributed to her in the " Mer-
cant of Venice" (act v., scene I, according to the ordinary
editions), her real words were :

"I am never merry when I hear greet music."
It would be strange, indeed, that she should be, but this
honest avowal ought to advance her in the estimation of
every reader or auditor who studies the ," character."

MONEY AT ARKET.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Aa usual on Derby day the attendance in most
departments of business throughout the City is very
mach reduced. The mercantile community have
aken advantage of the general inactivity and the
neness of the weather to absent themselves, and
at the Stock Exchange particularly, operations are
very much curtailed in consequence.
There is a fair demand for discount accommoda-
tion, but the payments of the 4th of the month
have not created so much effect as might have been
anticipated. The fact is, however, trade is ex-
ceedingly inactive, and the periodical liquidation
of mercantile accounts therefore is not productive
of much animation in monetary circles. The rates
required for the negotiation of good commercial
bills continue easy, and the Banks and discount
houses have much larger balances than they can
profitably employ.

In the Foreign Exchanges yesterday afternoon a
slight decline took place in the rates on Vienna
and Frankfort.

There were no bullion operations of importance
at the Bank yesterday.
In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday there
was a good demand, and 10,000 bales were sold;
prices of some descriptions were id. per lb. higher.

THE NA VY.

_

The Vesuvius, 6, paddle, Commander R. G.
Douglas, sailed from Spithead yesterday morning
for North America and the West Indies, by the
Needles passage.

The Rhadamanthns, paddle, Master Commander
Sturdee, sailed from Portsmouth yesterday for
Woolwich after discharging machinery for the ves-
sels fitting in the port.
The Curacoa, screw frigate, Captain Augustus
Phillimore, took out her lower masts in the old
fitting basin at Portsmouth yesterday, and will be
paid out of commission to-day.
Orders have been received at Portsmouth to
mount the large smooth-bore gun, known as the
Horafall gun, now lying just above high water
mark, on the beach near So'ithsea, half buried in
sand and shingle, for the purpose of testing its
powers upon iron plates.

Commander Lysaght, R,N., her Majesty's ship
Fic.,gard, flag ship of Woolwich dockyard, yesterday
made arrangements at the Royal Arsenal pier for
the mooring of the yacht belonging to his Highness
Said Pasha, Viceroy of Egypt, who is hourly ex-
pected. The Pasha and the principal personages
of his suite will sleep on board during the three
nights the yacht will be moored at Woolwich.
The work of rigging and fitting the Racoon, 21,
400-horse power, is being hurried forward at Chat-
ham dockyard by all the available hands that can
be spared from the Royal Oak, 51, and the other
vessels building and fitting, and every exertion is
uai.A to have her in readiness to be commissioned
Within a month or six weeks, in order to convey
his Royal Highness Prince Alfred on a cruise to
the principal ports of Europe. By direction of the
Admiralty the Racoon is to be fitted with two of
the newly-invented machines for firing 24-pounder
rockets.

The 40-pounder Armstrong.gun employed for some
time past in. Woolwich Arsenal in testing a new
species of vent pieces, and loaded with a double
proof charge of powder and shot, has at length
yielded to the tremendous concussion and burst, the
'whole of the coils behind the trunnions having
been shattered into fragments.

The Black Prince iron frigate is filling up her
coal bunkers alongside Poresmouth dockyard, and
has a large number of bands still employed upon
het completing her fitment and rig. Her pennant
of commission has not yet been hoisted. Her re-
duced bowsprit is in its position and fitted. With
the bowsprit-cap scarcely reaching to the lower
edge of the Prince's tunic, it becomes mere burlesque
to call such a stick a " bowsprit." This reduction
of the spar was intended to ease the ship in a sea-
way, but it has been carried out to the extreme. A
removal of the foremast further aft would have
been a far more effectual measure for easing the
"pitch" of the ship, and would have improved her
general appearance.

BANK RETURNS.

The Bankers' Magazine furnishes the returns of the cir-
culation of the Private and Joint-Stock Banks in England
and Wales for the four weeks ending May 3. These
returns, combined with the circulation of the Scotch and
Irish Banks for the same period, and the average circula-
tion of the Bank of England for the four weeks ending the
30th April (the nearest date furnished by their returns),
will give the following results of the circulation of notes in
the United Kingdom, when compared with the previous
month :

And, as compared with the month ending the 4th May,
1861, the above returns show an increase of £1,027,881
in the circulation of notes in England, and an increase of
£341,151 in the circulation of the United Kingdom :
On comparing the
above with the fixed issues of the seve-
ral banks the following is the state of the circulation :

compared with the previous month, and an increase of
£3,919,884 when compared with the same period last year.
The following are the amounts of specie held by the Scotch
and Irish banks during the month ending the 3d April :
Gold and silver held by the Scotch banks £2,547,853
Gold anclvilver held by the Irish banks.. 2,250,921

£4,798,774
Being a decrease of £61,696, as compared with the
previous return, and a decrease of £70,901 when compared
with the corresponding period of last year.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Monday morning a fright-
ful occurrence took place at 19, Queen-street, Queen-square,
Westminster. It appears that Mr. Richard Macdougall
Barrett, an enrolled Volunteer, residing at the above house,
had returned home from attending the drill of his corps,
and took upon himself to clean the second-floor windows,
and while so engaged slipped and fell to the ground,
striking the area railings in his descent. Ile was picked
up, bleeding and insensible, and taken to Westminster
Hospital, when it was found that his skull was fractured,
he expired shortly after his admission. The deceased was
formerly attached to the sth Fusileers, and fought with that
regiment at Lucknow, Cawnpore, and throughout the
WWI Mutiny,—Express.

ROYAL COMMISSION.

Sir A. CLIFFORD, yeoman usher of the black rod, sum-
moned the Speaker and the members to the Upper House
to hear the Royal Assent given by commission to several
bills, for which see Lords' report.

THE INCOME TAX.
Several petitions were presented from different parts of
the country against the present mode of levying the Income-
tax, and praying for the exemption of aIL incomes under
£l5O a year from its operation.
AUSTRIA AND THE VENETIAN PROVINCES.

Mr. FREELAND gave notice that ho would draw the
attention of the house to the relations of this country with
Austria, and the state of the Venetian provinces.

CHINA.

Mr. WHITE gave notice that on the 24th inst., he
would call the attention of the house to the state of China.
TELEGRAPHIC 'AND RAILWAY COMMUNICA-
TION WITH INDIA AND TURKEY.

Mr. J. EWART asked the Secretary of State for India
whether any proposition had been made to the India Coun-
cil to aid the establishment of a line of telegraph between
Singapore and India, and if so, what was the general nature
of that proposition ?
Colonel STUART asked the Under Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether an agreement was entered into in

1858, between the Governments of Turkey and this coun-
try (or of India), for the construction of a line of telegraph
from' Scutari to Bagdad by the Turkish Government ;
whether it was not also agreed between the contracting
parties that, on the completion of the telegraphic commu-
nication between Scutari and Bagdad, a line of telegraph
should be laid down from Bagdad to Kurrachee by the Go-
vernment of this country or of India; whether it was not
the fact that the line from Scutari to Bagdad was completed,
surveyed, and reported on as fit for use by a British
officer, in December, 1860 ; and, whether it was not also the
fact that no steps have since been taken by the Government
of this country (or India) to continue the line of telegraph
from Bagdad to Kurrachee, in accordance with the agree-
ment of 1858 ?

Sir C. WOOD said with respect to the first question, the
Sultan had been communicated with on the subject, and it
was considered by the Government that the telegraph
communication between the places indicated would not be
of such importance to India as to justify its being estab-
lished. With respect to the other questions, he thought the
Government was bound to complete the lino from Scutari

AND AMENDMENTS.

Lord PALMERSTON, in moving that the house at its
rising do adjourn until Thursday, said ho would avail him-
self of this opportunity to make a statement as to the
present state of the business of the house. Up to
yesterday her Majesty's Government had reason to believe
the question which the house would have to deliberate upon
this evening was one relating to the economy which should
be exercised in the expenditure of the country con-
sistently with the efficiency of the public service.
(Hear, hear.) But a notice had been given last night by
the hon. and learned member opposite (Mr. Walpole)
which entirely altered the issue to be taken. The question
to be decided now will be whether the gentlemen on the
Ministerial benches on the opposite side of the house were
the better entitled to the confidence of the house. (Hear,
hear, and cheers from the Ministerial benches.) He ar-
rived at that conclusion from the form in which the hon.
gentleman (Mr. Walpole's) amendment was framed, from
the side of the house from which it emanated, and from the
political meeting which had recently taken place of mem -
bers of the other side of the house. from which it emanated.
He thought that the best course the house could pur-
sue would be at once to proceed to the discussion of the
real question raised, as to which party was the bast
entitled to the confidence of the house. (Loud
cheers from the Ministerial benches.) He trusted, therefore,
ward Lordia Ra
that the noble member for Huntingdonshire (Lord R.Mon-
tagu) and the other hon. members who had amendments on
the motion propDsed by the hon. member opposite (Mr.
Stansfeld) would withdraw them. (Hear, hear, and cries
of " No, n 0.,,)
‘-Palreeret

alluded to by Jae
GOVe amendment on the paper from any hostile feeling to the
stated

ROYAL HUMANE SOCIETY.

Yesterday Earl De Grey end Ripon presided at
the anniversary meeting of the above society,
held at the Hanover-square Rooms. A large num-
ber of ladies attended the meeting, and among the
gentlemen on the platform were—Sir W. Fraser,
Sit-W. Stirling, M. de Chateauneuf, and M. de Ces-
ceau (who attended as a deputation from France),
Mr. M. Gore, Mr. T. E. Baker, &c. The chairman
stated that he had great pleasure in introducing to
the meeting two gentlemen who had attended at
the express direction of the Emperor of the French.
M. de Chateauneuf then read an address congratu-
lating the Royal Humane Society upon its success
during the past century, and thanking it for the aid
it had rendered in the establishment of a similar
society in France. There were several societies in
France for the saving of life, and during the last
nine years 3,100 persons had been saved on its
coasts from shipwrecks and different sea accidents,
4,500 from accidents on river; 790 from fire, and
more than 1,000 from other accidents. These
societies had received the direct sanction of the
Emperor of the French Government. After a few
words from M. de Cesceau, who handed in a
diploma and medal of the French society, the chair-
man said, he rejoiced to hear that a society similar
to their own had been formed in France, and that
they bade the deputation a hearty welcome to Eng-
land. He thought they did great honour to this
society in coming such a distance to be present
at their meeting. He regretted that his Grace
the Duke of Argyll, the president, was not
present, but he should feel great pleasure in
handing to him the medal and diploma.
Mr. young, the secretary, then read the
report,

the remaining 48 having been past recovery, of which
23 were cases of attempted suicide. During the
same period the society conferred as rewards of gal-
lantry to whose who risked their lives to save the
lives of their fellow-creatures 23 honorary silver
medals, 77 honorary breeze medals, 2 vellum and
57 parchment testimonials, besides 81 pecuniary re-
wards. In the past 12 months 369,139 persons had
bathed in the Serpentine River without one fatal
accident having occurred, notwithstanding that there
had been as many as 52 casualties, including 11
other persons saved from committing suicide through
the watchfulness and prompt exertions of the so-
ciety's boatmen. From the 19th of January to the

Le Corse, which had been placed at his disposal by
the Emperor of the French. It is expected that
the visit of the Viceroy to England will extend
over a period of two months, his diplomatic agent
in this country, Mr. J. W. Larking, having received
instructions to retain Melrose-ball, Wimbledon-
park, which has been prepared for No Royal High-

him by the Mayor, being read by the town-cletht
Mr. E. Knocker ;
"To HIS HIGHNESS SAID PASHA, THE VICEIOY
OF EGYPT.

" We, the Mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of the
ancient Cinque Port and borough of Dover, desire
to offer your Highness a hearty welcome to the
shores of England, and to assure you of the goateful
sense we entertain of the regard your HighGess
and your Highness's predecessors have uniformly
shown to the interests of this country in all those
relationships in vhioh they Have been flterwoven.
with the classic and fertile land which your High-
ness so ably governs. Your Highness has lately
given another proof of attachment to the Sovereign
and people of these realms in the cordial hospitality
with which you have received the heir apparent
to the Crown, the Prince of Wales,—a Prince
dear to his country as the eldest son 9f our beloved
Queen and the late lamented Prince COnsort, and
we feel confident that the nation will rejoico in the
opportunity afforded it by your Highness's v6st of
personally assuring your Highness of their immix
appreciation of your Highness's consideration,
That the friendship which has so long existed be-
tween the countries of Egypt and Great Britain
may, by God's blessing, more and more increase, to
the mutual welfare and happiness 9f their peoples
under the paternal sway of their respective rulers,
is our earnest prayer.
" Given under our corporate seal, in the Council
Chamber at Dover, this 3d day of June, A.D. 062."
The Viceroy replied fluently in French.
His Royal Highness and suite remained at Dover
for the night, and proceeded to London by the
South-Eastern Railway at 9 o'clock this morning.
