POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.—Tan Sydsil, who stated that he
was an accountant, but declined to give his address,
was charged with attempting to extort money from Mr.
E. T. Smith, the lessee of Drury-lane Theatre.
Mr. Renton Nicholson, the landlord of the Coal Hole
Tavern, deposed that he had been a friend of Mr.
Smith's for twenty years, and lately he received a letter
from the defendant containing a threat that he would
expose some alleged transactions in Mr. Smith's pri-
vate life which would injure his moral reputation in the
estimation of the lady patronesses, unless he was libe-
rally compensated for a wrong which Mr. Smith had
done him in 1835 by accusing him (defendant) of having
set fire to his house for the sake of the insurance money.
By the advice of Mr. Smith's friends, witness waited
upon defendant at Mr. White's office, 6, Essex-street,
Strand ; and, after some conversation with them both,
made an appointment to meet them both at the
Coal Hole on Tuesday evening. They met, ac-
cordingly, Inspector Hancock having been previously
deposited in the larder within hearing. Witness then
detailed a long conversation which took place on this oc-
casion, during which the defendant said Mr. Smith had
ruined him, and that it was in his power to ruin Smith.
Witness reminded him that the rumour about his having
set fire to his house was general at the time in question,
and he was pointed to as the man by his fellow-inmates
in the Queen's Bench prison. Defendant replied that it
was so, but all owing to Smith ; and he was now deter-
mined to publish his whole career, in which object he
should be assisted by Mr. Jerrold. Witness said he was
quite certain that a part like Mr. Jerrold would not lend

THE REFORM BILL.

Earl GREY, in moving for certain returns rela-
tive to the number of electors in the kingdom,
pointed out the impolicy of proceeding with such a mea-
sure in the present state of affairs, when the attention
of the people was entirely directed to the war, and the
whole energies of the Government were required to
maintain the character and interests of the country.
The Earl of ABERDEEN replied that he had
no objection to the return. As to the remarks of the
noble earl, he could only repeat what he stated the other
evening, that it was the intention of his noble friend
in the other house, to proceed with the Reform Bill on
the day named, but as t 9 whether he would irrevocably
do so on that day, he (Lord Aberdeen) must declinegiving
any positive pledge in the present stale of the country and
of Europe it was impossi Me to say what a day or hour
would bring forth ; and when the day in question
arrived, it would be for them to act according
to what appeared to them most consistent with the great
interests of the country, and a due regard to our own
honour.
London, England, 1854-03-09

drew his hand from his pocket, and discharged a pistol
in the direction of the window behind the inspector and
the prosecutor. It was done so instantaneously that I
could not perceive what he had in his hand until after the
explosion.

The prisoner, having been remanded on the charge of
embezzlement, in reply to the more serious charge said—
I was at the West-end yesterday, and purchased the
pistol, with no other object in view than because it was
cheap. I took it to a gunsmith to get it repaired, and
it was returned to me loaded. I had not the slightest
intention of committing murder; but being in the station
with a loaded pistol in my possession, I thought I would
discharge it. If I had wished to have taken the life of
the prosecutor I had ample opportunities of doing so
long ago ; but I had no such intention.
Alderman Muggeridge—That is no defence to the
charge againstFyou. I shall therefore commit you for
trial upon the charge of attempting to murder.

FURTHER ARRIVAL OP OUR TROOPS AT MALTA.—
The Niagara, with the 28th Regiment, arrived at Malta
on the 4th March. The Ripon, with the Guards,
arrived at Malta on tlie sth March.
MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.—Yesterday morning
the walls throughout the metropolis were placarded
with bills, offering a reward of 501. from the friends
of a gentleman named Walsh, a surgeon, of Worcester,
who has been for some days missing, under the most
extraordinary circumstances. Mr. Walsh, it appears,
arrived about the let inst. at the Sussex Hotel,
Bouverie-street, and afterwards left that house for
the South-Western Railway, to see a newly con-
structed staircase, since which time, notwithstanding
all the inquiries and trouble of his friends, nothing has
been heard of him, and now it is feared that he has been
waylaid and murdered. When he was last seen he had
about him a valuable gold watch, marked " Wetherill,
Liverpool ;" he is abont 45 years of age, dark com-
plexion, and on one of his hands has but four fingers,
though on the glove there is a thumbstall ; he had also
attached to his watch a gold curb-chain, seal, and key,
and his linen is marked "J. H. Walsh." The police
are busily employed in the matter, but up to the hour
this was written not the least clue had been obtained of
the missing gentleman.

1.4,W,K-LANB.THEATRE.

~~

17,
The moruiig performance yesterday at this theatre,
in aid of the wives and.children of the British soldiers
sent as an expeditionary force to the East, received all
the encouragement which such a benevolent object de-
served, the house being not only crowded to overflowing,
but graced by the attendance of a most brilliant com-
pany. The Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress, and
the Sheriffs,- came in state, and a stage-box, on the
Royal side, was fitted up for their especial use. It pro-
jected some two or three feet upon the stage, under a
canopy of crimson and gold, the front was embellished
with the City arms ; producing altogether a very rich and
appropriate ensemble. An-illustrious and distinguished
company filled a suite of boxes, decorated in a similar
manner, extending into the dress circle. In the course of
the morning the Duchess of Cambridge and the Prin-
cess Mary of Cambridge, attended by the Baron Kese-
beck, entered the house, and were immediately recognised
by the audience; who applauded the Royal visitors with
prolonged enthusiasm. Among the company who occu-
pied seats in the immediate vicinity of their Royal High-
nesses were the Countess of Derby, Lady Stanley, the
Countess of Lanesborough, the Duchess of Inverness,
the Countess of Essex, the Marchioness of Ailesbury,
Lady Palmerston, Lady Shaftesbury, the Duchess of
Montrose, the Countess of Donoughmoro, and other
fashionable personages. The decorations of the theatre
were not confined to the state boxes. From the upper
tier sprung a profusion of the national flags of France,
Turkey, and England, the effect of which was extremely
pleasing, and symbulised the sentiment of the "demon-
stration" very hat.ly-
Prior to the - ,-)mencement of the performance—
which consist-, the tragedy of Virginius —" God
save the Quc, d "Rule Britannia," were sung by
Madame Fa Stabbach, Mrs. Newton Fred-
sham, Miss Miss Poole, Mr. Heriri
Drayton, and otht r who kindly volunteered
their services in furtherance of an undertaking so inhe-
rently suggestive of public sympathy. The band of the
Royal Household Cavalry supported the vocalists, and
with what result may easily be guessed. The Anthem
was redemanded with great vehemence by the specta-
tors, whose loyalty, never at a feeble point when par-
ticular circumstances evoke it, naturally rose on this
occasion to the highest pitch, the military character of
the tableau ,n the stage lending its aid in enforcing the
exhilarative grandeur of the national paean.
It is not necessary to do more than remark that the
tragedy was played with great care by the actors. Mr.
Brooke exerted himself with his customary success, and
he was applauded with the zeal which he never fails-to
awaken. We can but hope, in conclusion,, that, the
object so benevolently proposed by Mr. Smith las' been
realised to his expectation. It is but due to 'him and fe
his compeny to say, that while the former granted the
use of the theatre, the latter gave their services .gratui-.
tously. Under favour of these liberal remissions, a con-
siderable amount of. money, no doubt, has: beeti,ob.
tained.

BEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE ITEM.

(From the Registrar-General's Report.)
The deaths registered in London exhibit a decrease
from 1,334 in the preceding week to 1,135 in the week
that ended last Saturday. The sudden rise was preceded
by a fall in mean temperature from 42 deg. to 35 deg.
the temperature then rose to nearly its position at 42
deg., and maintained it during the last two weeks, and
a reduction in the mortality to the extent of 200 deaths
is the consequence. In the 10 corresponding weeks of
the years 1844-53 the average number of deaths was
1,086, which, if raised in proportion to increase of pops'
lation, becomes 1,195. The actual number of last week
is less than the estimated amount by 60.
The mortality from whooping-cough is still above the
average, but shows a gradual decrease. The deaths
from it are 64, and are considerably more numerous
than those referred to any other disease in the epidemic
class. Scarlatina and typhus produced an equal num-
ber of fatal cases, 31 persons having died from each.
Measles caused 16 deaths, diarrhoea 20, influenza 3,
erysipelas.ll, syphilis 5. No death from cholera has
bier, registered in the last three weeks. Eleven women
died after childbirth. Besides 6 cases attriLuted to de-
lirium tremens, it appears that four persons were the
victims of intemperate habits. To this list must be
added a woman, who died from injury received in a
state of intoxication.

Last week the births of 893 boys and 846 girls, ill
all 1,739 children, were registered in London. In the
nine corresponding weeks of the years 1845-53 the
average number was 1,530.

At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
height of the barometer was above 30 in. on every day
of the week. The reading of the barometer has been
very remarkable throughout the week ; it increased
from 30.38 in. at the beginning of the week to 30.45 in.
by 10 on the 26th ; decreased to 30.20 in. by
9 h. p.m. on the 27th ; increased to 30.62 in. by noon
on the Ist of March ; decreased to 30.49 in. by 3 h.
p.m. on the 3d ; and increased to 30.67 in. by the end
of the week—a point higher than it has reached for
many years. The mean temperature of the week was
41.0 deg., which is 1.1 deg. above the average of the
same wek in 38 years. The highest temperature of
the week occurred on Friday, and was 57 deg., and
the lowest, namely, 24.6 deg., occurred on the same
day, showing a range of 32.4 deg. The highest tent-
peraturq on Saturday was 49.8 deg. The difference
between this and the air temperature, showing dryness
of the air was 9.2 deg. The wind, which had been
mostly in the south-west and south-east during the
week, changed on Saturday to north-east. No rain
fell in the seven days.

TRIESEMAR, protected by Royal Letters
Patent of England, and secured by the Seals of the Ecole de
Pharmacie de Paris, and the Imperial College of Medicine, Vienna.
The long continuance of most Maladies arising from impurities,
while it tends to render detection more certain, and thus frequently
to embitter the domestic hearth, also serves to excite feelings of dis-
appointment, and to induce lowness of spirits, and other sensations
of a most painful kind. The TRIESE MAR effectually, in the short
space of three days, ccmpletely and entirely eradicates all traces of
these Dise^ses, to whatever stage they mqy have advanced, plssess-
ing at the same time the manifest advantages of being utterly devoid
of taste or smell, and of all nauseating qualities. It may lie on the
toilet table without its use being suspected.

SAN FRANCISCO. —Madame Ida Pfeiffer thus writes
of St. Francisco, under date October 30, 1853 :—" The
city of Francisco certainly ranges with the great wonders
of the world, but it is not a wonder to charm or en-
chant. No less than six times in the course of five years
it was destroyed by fire, yet it looks as magnificent as it
it had never suffered by that element. It lies mostly on.
sand-hills, which are covered with houses and huts up to
their summits. The centre of the city consists of an
artificial piece of tolerably flat ground, produced by fill-
ing up the bay with sand to the extent of one-third of
an English mile. Here you would see a bustle as in the
city of the English metropolis—where is a driving, rid-
ing, running, a haste and hurry as in a disturbed ant-
hill. Houses of brick are built in an incredibly short
time, so that streets are often not recognised after a
month or two. While in the luxury and splendour
which is to be seen in the interior of the houses, San
Francisco rivals London and Paris—the filth without
and the state of the streets generally far exceed Con-
stantinople. These, forming as they do the common
receptacle for all kinds of rubbish and filth, are, In the
first instance, covered with a layer of dust and sand,
upon which may he seen heaps of broken boxes and
casks, crockery and bottles, cast-off cloth, linen and old
shoes, together with the dead bodies of dogs and rats.
To walk through the streets is a punishment, and to
extend your walk to the country around so much an
additional punishment—your legs soon becoming fa-
tigued by the deep sand, and your eyes not the less so
by viewing the monotonous dreary landscape. The bay,
it must be owned, is fine, and imposing by the great
number of vessels from all parts of the world ; to which
I must also add, that in the rainy season, as I am told,
the whole country assumes quite a diffheirsesneotaosaoesnrpebed cei

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 4, 1854

A snowfall so dense as to delay the mails and
otherwise generally to impede the traffic by rail-
road comes to us as seasonably as the prospect of
a European War at the commencement of the
New Year comes to us, in the strongest signification
of the word, unseasonably. An artificial scarcity
arising from the dearness of provisions—doubt on
the Stock Exchange interrupting the course of
rational speculation—labour stopped in the heart
of winter throughout some of the most populous
districts of Laticashire—suspicion as to Court in-
fluences of a most unconstitutional character—
confusion and disorganisation at the Horsepuards
—a chaotic Parliament and an unpopular Adminis-
tration : such are the sources of anxiety at Home,
now that 1854 has opened with the dawn of
January. Abroad, the prospect continues
to be about as sombre and melancholy.
Scarcely anywhere can we recognise indications
less deplorable than the presages of a general war
—a war involving in it the destinies of the prin-
cipal races of Christendom. Austria remains as
dubious as she has ever been heretofore. Prussia
still coquets with the supreme absolutism of St.
Petersburgh. Franca betrays, through the by no.
means inaudible avowals of her EMPEROR, a re-
solve to tolerate no longer the lawless designs
and arrogant policy of the Russian AUTOCRAT.
Meanwhile the Turks are more than ever infuriated
by the timidity of their allies, and the detestable
cruelty of their assailants—the Muscovites, on the
other hand, being more than ever inflamed to a

lust of battle, and a passion for bloodshed by their
recent and reiterated successes over their Moslem
neighbours. Precisely at this juncture the inti-

mation vouchsafed to the people of England
through the organs of the Coalition, by way of
solace, or encouragement, is actually to the effect
that Peace depends now entirely on—What ?
Listen !—" The will of the AUTOCRAT." What
a solid foundation this for hope as to the
speedy restoration of the world to tranquillity !
Everything reposes now on " the will of the AUTO-
CRAT." Not on the Four Powers—the Allies of
Turkey—they have transmitted their final propo-
sitions to Constantinople. Not on Turkey her-
self—she has accepted those propositions frankly
and readily on two conditions, namely, on the
understanding that the integrity of her empire is
to be guaranteed, and that the twin provinces of

Moldo-Wallachia are,to be evacuated. The final
decision, therefore, has to be awaited, not
from Stamboul, or from •Paris, or from
Vienna, or from Berlin, or front the sacred
precincts of Downing-street but from St.
Petersburgh. In other words, Europe is meekly
;to listen for its doom from the magnanimity, the
wisdom, the justice, and the moderation of the
CZAR. What a prospect ! How eN.hilarating—
