MELBOURNE AND HOBSON'S BAY.

The report of the directors states that although
there had been an actual decrease in the number of
vessels which had discharged their cargoes at the
company'spief during the past half year, as compared
with the previous one, the number of general cargo
ships had been greater by ten during that period, and
the tonnage 4,000 tons in excess, while in the corres-
ponding period of last year the increase of foreign
imports discharged at the pier was represented by
four vessels and 3,000 tons in favour of the last six
months, the decrease having arisen only from the
diminished consumption of coal during the summer
months. The diminished cost of working the goods
traffic, under the company's own management, had
fully realised the expectations of the directors, and
enabled them, by the extra amount of tonnage con-
veyed over the line, to meet the increased competition
from lighterage and other sources, without entailing
any drawback upon the general revenue. All the new
carriages ordered from England had arrived, and
would be placed upon the line in the course of a few
days. Thebill for the amalgamation of the Melbourne
Railway Company with the Hobson's Bay Railway
Company passed the Legislative Assembly on the 10th
May, and was transmitted to the Legislative Council,
before which it was expected to pass in a few days.
The bill for the sale and purchase of the St. Kilda
and Brighton Railway had passed the Legislative
Council. The balance of traffic receipts for the last
six months, after payment of working expenses and
the interest on debentures, amounted to £20,138,
out of which the directors recommended a dividend
at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum for the half
year ending the 30th April last, leaving a balance of
£l3l. The reserve fund now amounted to £19,209.
The capital account showed that £388,678 had been
expended on the Melbourne and Hobson Bay line,
and £113,885 on the St. Kilda branch ; to-
gether, £502,563. The revenue receipts for the six
months ending the 30th of April last amounted to
£43,511, including £BB from the preceding half-
year ; the expenditure to £20,635 ; and the interest
on loans to £2,738 ; leaving a balance of £20,138.

THE PISTON FREEZING MACHINE
(ASII'S PATENT) is rapidly becoming a part of the
cuisine of every gentleman's establishment. becau it is by
far the quielte&t, most economical, and easy methol of
freezing known. It is only by the piston process that des-
pert ices, ice' puddings, &c., min be made at once in moulds,
ready for tablk: (avoiding the double operation or freezing and
moulding afte:wards). It is the very best apparatus for
icing wine, and produces the purest block ice. Its complete
suec .ss, when used with the chemical 'freezing powders (in
lieu of ice) in hot climate,, on board sh:p, rec., is testified by
reference to patrons in nearly every part of the world. Pike

Crime in France.

The Court of Assizes of the Gers, last week, tried a girl
named Marie Cassagnabere, only 13i years of age, on a
charge of having, on the 31st May last, set fire to a barn
belonging to a farmer named Laffargue, residing at Lar-
tigue, in whose service she was at the time. She was also
charged with having attempted, in 1864, to poison a farmer
named Autefuge and one of his labourers. On the Nth
May last, the prisoner told her master that a woman named
Balas, residing in the neighbourhood, had threatened to set
fire to his premises. The next morning her master's barn
was set on fire, and the prisoner pretended to have seen the
woman Balas running away from it just before the fire
was discovered. Fortunately, the flames were extinguished
before mrch injury was done. An investigation insti-
tuted by the police having proved beyond all doubt that
the woman Balas had not been near the farm, the prisoner
was interrogated, and at last confessed that she herself had
set fire to the barn and accused the woman Balas of the
crime, in order to be revenged for some insulting expres-
sion the latter had applied to her. During the inquiry, the
police were informed that the prisoner had, in the previous
year, attempted to poison her then master, M. Autefage,
and one of his labourers, by putting in their soup some
phosphorus which she had scraped off lucifer matches, but
neither of them had eaten enough to do them any harm.
The prisoner was accordingly committed to take her
trial on tho three charges. The evidence being
conclusive against the prisoner, the jury found her
guilty, but added that she had acted without discern-
ment, and the court accordingly condemned her to bo con-
fined in a house of correction till the completion of her 18th
year.
The Court of Assizes of the Somme last week tried a
farm labourer named Bocquet, aged 86, on a charge of hav-
ing, on the 11th June last, murdered a milkmaid named
Lemaire, aged 27, in the service of M. Gaffet, a farmer re-
siding at Demuin. It appeared from the evidence that the
prisoner had been for some time on terms of intimacy with
the woman Lemaire, but a difference having arisent be-
tween them, he went to her while she was milking the
cows on the morning above-mentioned, to ask for some
explanation, and not receiving a satisfactory answer,
he knocked her down with a hay fork, and kicked her
on the head with his heavy nailed shoes until she was
dead. As he had been heard on the previous day to utter
threats against the young woman, he was at once suspected
to be her murderer, and was arrested. When interrogated
he confessed his crime in the most cynical manner, and
seemed to glory in what he had done. The jury having
brought in a verdict of guilty, without extenuating cir-
cumstances, the co art passed sentence of death on the

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE UNITED
KINGDOM.

GENTLEMEN,—The old Parliament is dia-
solved—a new one is to be constructed—and you are
now called upon to exercise the high and important privilege
of selectime, the represen• alive. of the greatest city in the
world. We venture to place our names on the list of com-
petitors for your suffrages, or rather for a rk newal or con-
tinuation of them ; for we have this advantage over many
Indidates that we do not come before you as strangers. Our
exertions in your interests during a long series of years are
not unknown, nor have they been unrewarded. We are old
and tried Reformers. Grieved to B3hold our fellow-calm ns
outrageously overtaxed, we introduced a new system, and
raised the cry of "ECONOMY AND EXCkLLENCE IN
liAPPY COMBINATION." We have most earnestly
opposed and condemned all exorbitant claims upon the public
purse, setting an example to others in the extreme modera-
tion of every Bill presented by ourselves. Thus not a single
Bill so presented has ever been objected to, or rejected, or
amended. We have never disappointed our constituents—
we have never violated our pledges—we have never neglected
our duty. The improving state of our revenue from the con-
tinned and increased prosperity of our commerdal relrctio s,
justifies us in promising to give our best consideration to the
possibility of still f orther retrenchenen s of all demands upon
the incomes of our constituents.
We are advocates for an eA tension of the suffrage, not
"laterally" only, but to all directions. Our constituency has
always been remarkably extensive—the largest in the King-
dom—but we have uo objection whatever to see it multiplied
to any extent, and amongst all classes. We ever idea i y our
own interests with those f the richest and the poorest of eur
tell w-countrymen, and are ready to work for all alike—for
both sexes and for all ages. We have continued to satisfy all
parties without addressing ourselves exc:usively to any.
With the expression of these principles, opinions, and pro-
mises, and with the most grateful sense of past favours, we
hare the honour to remain,
GENTLEMEN,
Your faithful and obedient Eervants,
E. MOSES and SON.

The committees of E. Mom and SON sit daily from Seven,

rrH E PISTON FREEZING MACHINE
(ASH'S PATENT) is rapidly becoming a part of the
cuisine of every gentleman's establishment. becau-e it is by
Mr the quickest, most economical, and easy methol of
freezing known. It is only by the piston process that des-
sert kris, ice •i puddings, &c., can be made at once In monk's,
ready for table (avoiding the double operation of freezing and
moulding afterwards). It is the very beat apparatus for
icing wines, and produces the purest block ice. Its complete
success, when used with the chemical freezing powd'rs (in
lieu of ice) in hot climate, on board ship, AC., is testified by
reference to patrons in nearly every part of the world. Pike

MELBOURNE AND HOBSON'S BAY.

The report of the directors states that although
there had been an actual decrease in the number of
vessels which had discharged their cargoes at the
company'spier during the past half year, as compared
with the previous one, the number of general cargo
ships had been greater by ten during that period, and
the tonnage 4,000 tons in excess, while in the corres-
ponding period of last year the increase of foreign
imports discharged at the pier was represented by
four vessels and 3,000 tons in favour of the last six
months, the decrease having arisen only from the
diminished consumption of coal during the summer
months. The diminished cost of working the goods
traffic, under the company's own management, had
fully realised the expectations of the directors, and
enabled them, by the extra amount of tonnage con-
veyed over the line, to meet the increased competition
from lighterage and other sources, without entailing
any drawback upon the general revenue. All the new
carriages ordered from England had arrived, and
would be placed upon the lino in the course of a few
days. The bill for the amalgamation of the Melbourne
Railway Company wain the Ilobson's Bay Railway
Company passed the Legislative Assembly on the 10th
May, and was transmitted to the Legislative Council,
before which it was expected to pass in a few days.
The bill for the sale and purchase of the St. Kilda
and Brighton Railway had passed the Legislative
Council. The balance of traffic receipts for the last
six months, after payment of working expenses and
