DR. JENNER.—At the earnest request of the
King of the Belgians, this distinguished physician left
London for Brussels on Wednesday night, to attend his
Majesty on his arrival. Dr. Jenner's visit must of neces-
sity be brief ; and he is, we have reason to believe, ex-
pected to return in the course of to `day.

Lord and Lady Conyers have arrived in town
from Warwickshire, on a visit to Mr. S. Lane Fox.

The Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer

Mr. Jervoise Smith has left Belgrave-square for

Professor Gneist, the defender of the Poles in the
late prosecution at Berlin, has received from the
accused in the first trial a magnificent silver epergne, re-
presenting at its base Wisdom and Justice supporting an
escutcheon containing an inscription in Latin. Above
rises a column bearing a statue of Poland, holding in its
hand a flag, with some words in Polish. On the column
are engraved the names of the 126 accused.

CHARGE OF FORGERY.—At the Brighton police-
court yesterday Henry Augustus Winser, aged 37, who has
hitherto held a highly respectable position as a professor of
music and organist at Brighton, was brought up charged
with forging a deed whereby he obtained the sum of £875
18s. sd. from the Brighton branch of the South Eastern
Banking Company. His solicitor offered no defence, and ha
was committed for trial to the assizes.

Two men who were identified as having taken
part in the disturbances at Rochdale, on Saturday, have
been sentenced by the local bench to pay a fine of £lO

Thomas Lund, late secretary of the Blackburn
Co-operative Cotton Spinning and Weaving Company, was
committed for trial at Blackburn, on Wednesday, on several
charges of forgery and embezzlement. His frauds upon the

action was brought for false imprisonment. Mr. Evans,
attorney for the plaintiff, called several witnesses, and said
that the parents of the girl had offered to take £2O for the
wrong committed. The jury awarded £2O, ai,l said they
would have given more had it been asked.
CITY OF LONDON COLLEGE.--A lecture was de-
livered yesterday evening by Mr. David Nesmith,
barrister, to the members of this institution, in Leadenhall-
street, the subject of his discourse being " The British
Constitution," with special reference to the period of the
Tudors and Stuarts, and embracing also the various causes
which impeded the development of constitutional prin-
ciples, as evidenced by the influence of the Star Chamber
and High Commission Court. With the aid of his valuable
chronometrical chart, the lecturer was enabled to present
the subject in an interesting and instructive light before
his audience, by whom he was listened to with marked
attention throughout.
LIBERTY OF THE PRESS IN RUSSIA.—The chief
clauses of the new Russian press law are as follows :
The censorship is abolished upon all books containing
more than ten sheets of printed matter ; also upon all
newspapers, magazines, and periodical publications, the
editors of which are willing to submit to the system of
warnings. A journal will be suppressed after three warn-
ings. The first two will be given by the Administration ;
but the third must be sanctioned by the Senate. The
Government reserves to itself, in addition, the right of
prosecuting the delinquents before the ordinary tribunals,
and they will in that case have to submit to the verdict of
the jury.
