CREMORNE GARDENS.

The subjects of amusement exhibited at this p0P,41
place of metropolitan recreation and resort, yes el

posely to see her. She left that pier with the directo7
of the Ship Owners' Towing Company (her owners) as
their friends on board, at half-past twe,lve, and arriv

21 miles, in an hour and a half, being at the rate of
miles an hour, and this too with the engines working „:
half-speed for a quarter of an hour of that time'

caution prudently observed to prevent their getting
over-heated, which not unfrequently happens with the
machinery. The vessel was built at Speymouth, on tuue
property of the Duke of Richmond, in Scotland,
cognomen of whose predecessors has been given to Zeer
in compliment— Cock o' the North" (for such is R.
name). Her model was made by Mr. Duncan Sinclair;
of London ; and ber machinery, which is of 120.11°rsd

BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS.

Lord A. VANE wished to ask Lord J. Russell, whe-
ther there is any intention on the part of her Majesty's
Government, to introduce any measure or resolutions
providing that henceforth in all cases where bribery or
treating in any city, county, or borough, is proved be-
fore a committee of the House of Commons to have taken
place, a commission should issue from the Crown to in-
quite into the state of such borough, city, or county.
Lord J. RUSSELL said that in cases where bribery
had been proved it would be right -to institute a com-
mission of inquiry, but it was not the intention of the
Government to introduce any measure on the subject.

BOW-STREET-( THIS DAY.)

THE CHARGE OF SENDING THREATENING LETTERS TO
PRINCE ALBERT,-DIATH OF THE- PRISONER.

To-day was appointed by Mr. Jardine for the
further hearing of the charge against Edwin Bates,
of 10, Welbeck street, Cavendish•square, of send-
ing threatening letters to Prince Albert for not
forwarding him 3,0001. to help him with his scheme of
perpetual motion, which he avowed he had discovered.
The prisoner was examined at some considerable length
last Friday, and was remanded to this day for the
medical man to test his sanity.
As the time advanced this morning the magistrate re-
ceived a note from the Governor of the House of Deten-
tion, announcing the death of the prisoner. It stated
that he had died from a stoppage in the stomach. He
wa.4 quite calm and collected up to the time of his death,
and shortly before expiring made a will leaving all his
fmmiture and effects to his wife.

It will be remembered that the deceased had been up
several times at Bow•street and the Mansion-house on
charges similar to the present. In 1850-51 he was im-
prisoned for twelve months (in default of sureties) for
sending a threatening letter to his Royal Highness.
Since his liberation he had taken the above premises,
and furnished them in splendid style, and certain portions
of the house he had fitted up with machinery for per-
petual motion.

INDIAN TERRITORIES.

Mr. OTWAY wished to ask the President of the
Board of Control, whether it be true that the Govern-
ment of India has recently proposed to annex the ancient
Rajpoot State of Kerowlee to the British territories, in
pursuauce of the claim which was asserted in Lord Dal-
housie's Minute of the 30th day of August, 1848, and if
so, whether the home Government has approved of this
proceeding ; also, whether there be any objection to lay
on the table of the house, the communications which
have passed between the authorities at home and in
India on this subject.
Sir C. WOOD said it was not true.
HEALTH OF TOWNS.

Mr. R. MOORE wished to ask the Chief Secretary
for Ireland, whether it is the intention of Government
to introduce any Irish town improvement bill during
this session.

Sir J. YOUNG said he had no intention to introduce
such a bill this session.

Mr. COBBEIT wished to ask the Chief Commissioner
of Works whether, until the intended amendment of the
act 11 and 12 Vic., c. 63, shall have been submitted to
Parliament, the General Board of Health will suspend
its operations as to places already visited and reported
on by superintending inspectors, but with regard to
which places no provisional orders or orders in council
have been issued.

Sir W. MOLESWORTH should offer no obstacle to
the application of the Health of Towns Act in cases
where the majority of the ratepayers were favourable to
the act.

MARLBOROUG.Ii-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

A IVliscßßANT,—Tosia,s Tillman, a man about 40
years !of age, residing at 46, Union-street, Middlesex
Hospital, was brought before Mr. Hardwicke, charged
with indecently assaulting Alice Wallis, a child six years
of age, with intent to commit a capital offence. It ap-
peared, from the evidence of Sophia Wallis, the mother
of the child (who, with her husband, reside in the same
house as the prisoner), that, on Monday evening last,
the latter was, with other children, playing in the
kitchen, when all at once the child ran into her room in
a very excited state. On being asked what was the
matter, and where she had been, she said she had been
into the prisoner's room, and that he had laid her on the
bed ; and, on being further questioned, the child gave such
replies as to lead her mother to believe that a capital
offence had been perpetrated. She then ran down
into the kitchen and saw the prisoner and taxed
him with his conduct, and threatened to fetch her hus-
band. Prisoner declared he was an innocent man, and
denied all the child had told her. She then went to
fetch her husband, and while she was gone prisoner and
his wife left the house. On the following morning she
examined her child, and appearances were such as to
leave no doubt- on her mind that a capital offence had
been attempted ; but since then she had taken the child
to a surgeon, who, on examining the infant, stated that
considerable indecency and violence had been used to-
wards the child.

The prisoner in defence protested his innocence, and
said he had been drinking all day on Monday, and if
any offence had been committed he was not aware of it.
Mr. Hardwick decided on sending prisoner for trial.
