HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK.

(Front the Registrar-General's Return.)
The Registrar-General's return states that in the
week that ended on Saturday 1,004 deaths were regis-
tered, a result which, though not unfavourable as com-
pared with the usual mortality of the season in London,
again gives indication of that increase which is charac-
teristic of the summer mortality of towns as distin-
guished from that of the country. The deaths returned
in the last three weeks were successively 904, 971, and
1,004.

In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1843-52
deaths was 1,068, which, with a

of population, gives a mortality

fall. A ~ftst ta tile shareholders protested, a
among /der matters it was stated that a c )mmittee, ch
had 1, ne to France, under the shareholders' a iou, //
had, as they considered, received an assur ce from
the hsad of the state that five millions of francs, which
bad been deducted from the new company incorporated
to construct the Bordeaux and Cette Railway, was
reserved for this company. Under these circumstances
they thought it their duty to bring their case under
the consideration of the French government, and
they passed certain resolutions, which they embodied in
a respectfully-worded memorial to the Emperor of Prance.
That memorial was sent over to our ambassador, Lord
Cowley, whose kindness throughout the negotiations had
been everything that could possibly be desired. ilia
lordship strongly advised them to come to some terms,
and, it appearing that it would be well not for those en-
trusted with the care of the memorial to go over to
Paris unless the Emperor would receive them, they,
after some consideration, felt that the desirable course
was to leave Lord Cowley to act at his discretion in the
matter, and he (the chairman) had received a letter from
his lordship which led him to entertain no doubt the
memorial had been placed in such hands as to ensure
the presentation of it to the Emperor. Be this as it
might, they had not received any answer to it; and,
acting under an opinion expressed by Lord Cowley, thy •
had not asked his lordship to press for an answer. lie
(the chairman) thought that the absence of any answer
left open the door, and that a favourable conclusion
might yet be arrived at.

'After some conversational discussion the cordial thanks
of the meeting were given to Mr. Alderman Salomon*
for the exertions he had made to promote the interests
of the shareholders ; and he was requested to continue
those exertions in conjunction with Mr. Kennard, the
banker, and Mr. Field; the shareholders expressing their
entire confidence in the zeal and ability of those gentle.
men. The committee were, by a separate resolution,
earnestly requested to bring the claims of the share-
holders under the notice of the French Government.
The Chairman was instructed to convey the thanks
of the shareholders to Lord Cowley for his kind atten-
tion to their interests ; and at the conclusion of the pro.
ceedings the chairman took occasion to bear testimony
to the very valuable services that had been rendered to
the shareholders by Mr. Beke, upon whom, he said, he
looked quite as much as his personal friend as their
secretary.

ROYAL ASSENT.

Mr. Pulman, the Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod,
here appeared at the table, and commanded the house
to attend at the bar of the Peers, to hear the royal
assent given by commission to several public and private
bills, for which see Lords' report.
CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL.
The discussion on this bill was then resumed.
On the motion of Mr. PHINN, a proviso was added to
the bill bringing all schools with charitable foundations
under the act.
Mr. KINNAIRD moved an amendment with the
view of excluding such societies as the Christian Know-
ledge, or the Bible Society, or the Religious Tract
Society, from the operation of the bill.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said there was no
necessity to add this amendment to the bill, as such
societies which it contemplated were already excluded.
The amendment was therefore withdrawn.
The bill as amended was tben considered, and ordered
to be read a third time on Monday.
ASSESSED TAXES BILL.
This bill was considered as amended, and ordered to
be read a third time to-morrow.
The other twelve o'clock orders were disposed of, and
the house rose at 4 o'clock.

PETITIONS.

Mr. MIALL presented a petition from Sydenham,
in favour of the opening of the Crystal Palace on Sun-
dayM.
r. BUTT presented several petitions in favour of
Ten Hours' Factory Bill.
BEDFORD CHARITY ESTATE BILL.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved the second
reading of this bill, the object of which was to remedy
certain abuses connected with the administration of the
funds of this charity, which amounted to 12,0001. a-
year. He stated that it had been approved by three
successive Attorney-Generals, and had been carefully
inquired into by a committee of the House of Lords,
and had been approved of by the Lord Chancellor, Lord
St. Leonards, and Lord Redesdale.
Sir J. WALMSLEY opposed the bill on the ground
chiefly that the new trustees of the fund were to be ap-
appointed by the Lord Chancellor for life, and moved
that it be read a second time this day three months.
Sir F. THESIGER supported the bill.
The house divided and the numbers were—
For the second reading
Against it 8
Majority
The bill was then read a second time and ordered to
be committed.

now residing at the house of Henry Witton Tyndall, in
the borough of Birmingham, is not the person she has re-
presented herself to be, as appears by the depositions of
Richard Peyton, the younger, George Dawson, and 11. W.
Tyndall

"Sworn, Ste. " ARTHUR RYLAND."
The plaintiff, in total ignorance of what was taking
place, was at a party given by Mr. and Mrs. Tyndall,
on the evening of the 29th of August. He was seated at
the piano, playing some Hungarian music, when Mr.
Tyndall came to him, and stated a gentleman wished to
see him. When M. Moroda got out of the room he
was taken into custody by two policemen, put into a
car, and taken to the station. On asking what he was
charged with, he was told he was worse than a thief ; he
was an impostor. In the morning he was brought be-
fore the magistrates, but was discharged. Though what
occurred to the baroness had nothing to do with the
complaint of the present plaintiff, we may mention that
that lady was taken from her room (to which she had
retired, being ill) the same night at Mr. Tyndall's house,
conveyed to the prison in Moor-street, and was locked
up (as was Moroda) for the night. In the morning when
about to be called before the magistrates she died. On
the morning of the 30th, Mr. Toulmin Smith appeared
before the magistrates on behalf of Dawson, to explain
the reasons why the proceedings had been taken, but in
consequence of the death of the lady the matter was not
proceeded with, and the defendant was dismissed.
The case for the defence, supported by the evidence of
the four defendants and Mr. Hajnik, was, that there was
reasonable cause for the proceeding, the evidence tend-
ing to show that the party calling herself the "Baroness"
was in truth an adventurer, who had falsely called her.
self the " Baroness."

The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff. Damages
8001.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT•

HOUSE OF LORDS--(THIS EVENING.)
Their Lordships met shortly after three o'clock.
ROYAL ASSENT.
The Royal assent was given by commission to upwards
of one hundred bills, including the Succession Duty Bill;
the Common Lodging Houses Bill ; Convicted Prisoners
Removal and Confinement Bill ; Savings Banks Annui-
ties Bill; Coinage Offences (Colonies) Bill; Colonial
Bishops Act Extension Patronage Exchange Bill ;
Taxing Officers Bill ; Common Law Business (Ireland)
Bill ; Bankruptcy (Scotland) Bill ; Copyhold Bill ; Cus-
toms Duties Bill • Stamp Duties Bill ; Stamp Duties
(No. 2) Bill ; and alarge number of railway bills.
The Lords Commissioners were—the Duke of Argyll,
the Marquis, of Breadalbane and Lord Colchester.
Their lordships then adjourned during pleasure.
The house resumed at five o'clock.
Lord WYNFORD presented a petition from the
.General Court of Proprietors of the East India Corn-
p;any, praying for a modification of the Government of
India Bill. The noble lord said he deemed the prayer
of this petition to be most important, and thought it
was well worthy of attention at their lordships'
hands. All that the petitioners wanted was that
the best possible' government should be extended
to India, and inasmuch, as from their position, they
must be well acquainted with the wants of India, he felt
that any suggestions from them ought to demand the
most serious consideration. They took exception to the
system of Government nominees, and objected to the
proposed reduction of the Court of Directors.
Earl GRAN VILLE said the Government would re-
ceive these suggestions with the respect that they de-
served, but at the same time it was only right that he
should state that the Government did not concur in the
views contained in the petition.
THIRD READINGS.

The Parish Vestries (No. 2) Bill, the Municipal
Corporation Act Amendment Bill, the Burgh Harbours
(Scotland) Bill, the Summary Jurisdiction (Ireland)
Bill, and the Petty Sessions (Ireland) Bill, were severally
read a third time and passed.
The Marquis of CLA.NRICARDE expressed a hope
that the Government would give every facility for pass-
ing the two last bills through the different stages in the
House of Commons, in order that they might become
law this session.
The Duke of NEWCASTLE gave an assurance that
every facility would be afforded by the Government ;
but at this late period of the session it did not rest em
tirely with them to say that the bills containing so many
clauses as these should be passed into law.
The Brecon Collegiate Church Bill went through
committee.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

It is well for those who shrink from the possi-
ble cost and sacrifices of bold dealing with Russia
to remember what has been already the cost of a
timid policy. The enormous expenses of wars
40 or 50 years ago are called to our recollection,
and they are very properly held up in terrorem
before those who merely " long for a brush." But
the plain fact is, that with the community of
nations as with that of individuals, if some mem-
bers will be rogues the cost of compounding with
a felon may be quite as great as the cost of putting,
him in fetters ; besides the degradation of sub-
mitting to his extortions. If our readers will
only glance over the course of things since 1848,
they must see, we think, that English timidity
has paid an enormous penalty both in money and
reputation. It was pretty plain at the time, and
subsequent events showed it more plainly, that
Hungary was lost to liberty and commerce
in defiance of the views of Lord PALMER-
STON, and in deference to the obstinacy and
toryism (in foreign matters) of the Premier.
It is hardly a secret that Lord PALMERSTON
would have forbidden the barbarous despot and
serfs of Russia to crush the noble country of Kos-
sum, and place it again under the leaden cruelty of
Austria ; while it is no secret that, in reply to
the interpellations of Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE, whose
voice now is so ominously silent, Lord JOHN
RUSSELL in his place in Parliament, and in the
thorough spirit of CLARENDON, designated that
noble struggle for liberty " the Hungarian rebel-
lion.," and declined, at Mr. OSBORNE'S suggestion,

heartily prepared to
say, We abstain from all
interference with the
internal quarrels of disturbed
nations, and demand that every other nation does
the same," Russia would not have dared to move;
Hungary would have re •
