SUPPOSED POISONING.

On Tuesday morning, at ten o'clock, T. Wakley, Esq.,
and a Jury, re-assembled, pursuant to adjournment, at
the White Horse, North-street, Fitzroy-square, to
further investigate the circumstances attending the
deaths of Giovanni Arzoni, aged 47, an uhasnarine
colour manufacturer, lately residing at No. 22, Char-
lotte-street, in the abore neighbourhood, and his
daughter, Marie Catherine Arzoni, aged two years and
three months.

Some particulars relative to this case have already
appeared in The San. It will be recollected that the
deceased were buried about four weeks ago, in the bu-
rying.ground attached to the Tabernacle, Tottenham-
court-road, the man having been registered as dying of
asthma, and the child of consumption ; and suspicion
having arisen as to the causes of death. Mr. Wakley
gave orders to have the bodies disinterred that a post
motion examination might be made.
Mr. .1. E. Ladhury, surgeon, of No. 7, Upper Fitz-
roy-square, and Mr. Everett, a lecturer on chemistry,
stated that they had examined the bodies, and found
not the slightest traces of poison in the stomachs.
Mary Haynes stated that she was employed by Mrs.
Arzoni us charwoman, and had been almost daily at the
residence of that lady since the Ist of June, 1840. A.
week before Christmas they had a desperate quar-
rel, and then deceased tore his wife from the chair on
to the floor by the hair of her head, and endeavoured.
to strangle her, saying that if it was not for the law
he would put her out of the way. After that he
struck her, and she then called upon witness to pro-
tect her, when she got between them and pre-
vented further violence. Mrs. Arzoni then went
to her bed-room, and while ascending the stairs,
she threatened to have her revenge one day or
the other on the deceased and the whole of her fa-
mily. She had often heard Mrs. Arzoni threaten to
destroy herself and family rather than lead the life she
did. A short time before deceased's death Mrs. Arzoni
told witness that she had the week before Christmas
fervently prayed that God Almighty would lay her hus-
band on a sick bed, never to rise again. Subsequently
to Mr. Arzoni's death she, with apparent grief, told wit-
ness that her prayers had been heard, and that her hus-
band was dead. She at that time said nothing about the
death of the child. Witness ate a small quantity of the
plum-pudding, and felt no ill effects. Witness thought
that the threats used by Mrs. Arzoni were never meant,
but only uttered in a passionate moment.
Baptiste Goranti proved the deceased Giovanni was
well on the 30th of December, and taken ill the next
day. Deceased and Mrs. Arzoni frequently quarrelled,
and he had oftentimes heard the latter make use of the
expression, " D— my soul if I don't poison us all, and
I don't care if I go to hell for it." She had a very
dreadful temper.
There being no further testimony, Mr. WAKLEY
summed up, and the Jury, after some consultation, re-
turned a verdict of " Natural death."

women. Ibrahim did not leave Damascus till the 29th.
About 60 officers deserted to lithe Turks. Ibrahim was
molested on his journey by Kurds, :Vletualis, and Druses.
Having found a letter to Scheriff Pacha from his brother,
urging him to sabmit to the Porte, Ibrahim caused the
former to be beheaded. The Ottoman troops under Had-
Ecbi Ali Paella bad occupied Horns.
The appearance of DON MIGUEL on the French
frontier, is reported both in the Paris Papers of
Tuesday and the Madrid Journal, Castellano, of
the 2d inst. There is not, we believe, a word of
truth in it.

Puss AFLOAT.—The Progres du Pas de Calais relates
that a sportsman, who was a few days ago duck-shooting
in the inundated marshes of that country, perceived among
the branches of a tree, completely isolated by the waters,
an animal, the nature of which he could not at first dis-
tinguish. Getting into a slight skiff, he rowed to the tree,
and found that a hare had taken refuge in it. Thinking he
might catch his game alive, the sportsman climbed the
tree to seize it. Puss, however, eluded his grasp, and
leaped over his head into the little bark below, which, not
being fastened, the impetus of the fall set adrift, and the
current soon carried it out of the reach of the too eager
sportsman, who was obliged to keep the deserted seat of
his intended prey for several hours, when he was disco-
vered and released:
BRUTAL FEROCITY.—An unusual trait of ferocious man-
ners in the Centel happened a few days since. Antoine
Bapt, of Condit, held a wood in common with his two
brothers-in-law. On the day in question he entered it
with an axe, intending to cut faggots for his own use, as
he had conceived be had a right to do, taking with him
also a double-barrelled gun. Ere long his co-tenants
came upon him, one armed with a musket, and the other
with a hatchet, and after much altercation, drove him by
their menaces to the edge of a precipice. In this cx.
tremity Bapt discharged each of his barrels, and shot both
of his assailants. One rose up again and fired at him, but
missed, and then fell senseless on the earth. Bapt imme-
diately surrendered himself, and was committed to prison
Alurat.

opening of the poll, a band of hired ruffians, with
Mr. Antrobus's cards in their hats, mobbed every
elector who came up to the small gate leading to the
Kennington booth, to vote for Mr. Alcock. Mr. J. 11.

to the inspector of police to have the indecent nuisance

some serious explanations between the two Powers have
taken place, in consequence of Russia claiming that all
she has done since 1815 shall be regarded as legitimate.
The accounts also state that the spirit which prevails in
Poland is not favourable to the Government.

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Afrinchester Guardian.)
The continue d severity of the weather and the unfavour-
able mercantile accounts received from India and China,pro-
cluced considerable depression in our market yesterday ; and
though no material reduction in prices was submitted to,
buyers were exceedingly reluctant to give the rates of last
week, and very little business was done at any price.
Ito NI DALE COTTON MARKET, MONDAY, FEB. B.—.
To-day's market has been very much like the two preced-
ing ones ; the demand has been quite as good, and about
an average quantity of business done at former prices.
There is no change in the wool market ; the demand
bring steady and prices firm.

117:DDER;FIELD MARKET, FEJ3, 9. A cloud from
across the Atlantic has for a time overcast this market,
so that business to-day assumed a less encouraging
aspect than of late. The severe weather also keeps
back new goods, so that we must wait awhile before an
opinion can ba formed as to the actual state of business in
this district. There is no change in prices.

• On the 3,1 of November,

The season has been and is particularly severe
on the Borders. The flocks have suffered considerably,
and should the spring be backward, a loss of sheep may
be expected. Great numbers of grouse and black game
have already perished, and a great many more are flutter-
ing about the sides of hedges and dykes in a d) ing state.
Even that hardy denizen the crow has not escaped un-
scathed, as in many instances he has been found so much
out of sorts as to be unable to fly out of the way of his
natural enemy, man.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and afire-
tioi.s., which fer some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and ahnost in-
difference, by the et dinary practitioner. To enter into the
details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN.
Messrs. CUR'f IS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and
Five ill Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as minnte as possible in the detail of their cases,
—as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge-
neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the
communication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta-
tion Fee of 11.," without which no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied on.

TIME TABLES, &C.

1. That all trains employed in the public traffic,
whether of passengers or goods, should bx: worked by
time tables, properly constructed with reference to the
gradients, &c., of the line, and specifying the time of
arrival and departure at each station.

2. That in tha construction of these time tables it
should be a general rule that no train is to start within
less than fifteen minutes of another, or to succeed an-
other upon any part of the line at an interval of icss
than fifteen minutes.

8. That no engine, waggon, truck, or any description
of carriage whatever, not forming part at the regular
trains, should be allowed to enter upon the line of rails
devoted to the public traffic, without a pass ticket issued
by a responsible officer of the company.
4. That it should bo a general rule not to allow any
ballast train or waggon to remain on the lino within half
an hour of the time when a train is due, nor to allow
return engines to approach within fifteen minutes of a
train.
5. That every engine-driver and guard should be
furnished with time tables, and also with printed in-
structions, specifying, among other things, the maxi.
mum speed upon different portions of the line, and the

rules as to signals, &c., which arc invariably to be
adopted.

G. That the conductor, or head guard, of every train
should be bound to keep a journal, specifying the times
of arrival at, and departure from, each station, and
the causes of acceleration or delay ; and that the chief
clerk at each station should also note the time of ar-
rival and departure of each train, and be responsible for
not allowing any train to leave his station before the
proper time.

CONSTRUCTION.

1. Every description of passenger carriage shall be
provided with buffer springs.
3. The last carriage, and at least every fourth car-
riage, in trains by which passengers are conveyed, to be
provided with a proper break.

ESTABLISHMENT.
Under this bead it is impossible to state beforehand
the precise rsature of the regulations which it might be-
come necessary to make from time to time, as the power
vested in the Board of Trad© ought to be considered
me►rly as a check upon the possible circumstance of any
Railway Company reducirg its establishment below
that found necessary by experience upon well-regu-
lated lines.

It may be sufficient to state that the general prin-
principle of enforcing nothing of an experimental nature
ought to be strictly adhered to, and that companies
ought not to be called upon to increase their establish-
ment until clearly insufficient for conducting the public
traffic in safety, according to the practice of other rail-
ways similarly circumstanced.

LONDON:
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1841.

Sir ROBERT PEEL, in the House of Commons
on Monday evening, in his speech on the Poor-
law, quoted from a Report of a Committee of
the House of Commons, which sat in 1824, or
very nearly seventeen years ago—more than half
the average duration of a generation of man-
kind--the following account of the progress of
pauperism in the hundred of Blything in Suf-
folk :
A witness produced an account of the expenditure in
this hundred from Lady-day 1810, to Lady-day 1823.
Under the head of unemployed poor there was a progres-
sive increase in the amount of the rate, and likewise an
increase in the amount professedly applied towards thered for
relict
of the abl .-bodied poor, The sum app„ in this hund
the payment of unemployed poor from Lady-day 1810, to
Lady-day 1811, was 11. 3z. ; from Lady-day 1811, to
Lady-day 1812, it was 1/. 127. ; from Lady-day 1812, to
Lady-day 1813. it was 3/. ;in the year ending Lady-day
1814, it was 6/. ; and in the next year. 51 ; and it went
on increasing to 1,384. in 1816, to 2,297/. in 1822; and
it had advanced from 11. 3s. in 1811, to 3 536/. in 1824.
With this progre3sive increase of the rates, with this
progressive increase in the amount of relief pa d to the
poor, what was the result? The witness was asked what
Wbllthe condition of the unemployed pocr ? And his reply
was, that with respect to the unemployed poor, they were
generally relieved from the poor rates, they were without
t:rollaln', and were receiving relief as the wages of in-
de_nce- lie was, then asked what effect he had found
produced by the present system of giving relief instead of
employ He replied, that the effect was dreadful. It
totalldetnoralised the lower orders and made them poach-
ers, thieves, and robbers. Yet there bad been a progres.
sive increase in the
amount
o
°perfectly
of the sums paid for rates.
This was the state of th unemployed poor in the
year 1824. The witness was then asked, " Have you
observed, in your memory, that the quantity of crime has

a.INOTTER'S BENEFIT.—Mr. hotter, late
box-keeper at Covent. garden Theatre, will take a benofi
this evening at the Surrey Theatre ; and all who
know the civil and obliging manner in which he performed
his duties in that situation for 17 years will, we have no doubt,
willingly come forward to assist him on the present occa-
sion. The pieces to be performed are well selected.
Some of the actors are great favourites with the public,
and those, therefore, who wish to coder a benefit on a
meritorious public servant, will find ample entertainment
for the money.

COURT OF REQUESTS.

A DINNER AND SUPPER FOR THREEPENCE.—A man
named Sullivan was summoned to the Kingsgate-street
Court of Requests for sixpence, under the following
laughable circumstances.
Samuel Etheridge, an eatingbouse-keeper, stated that
that a few days ago the defendant came into his shop
and partook of two basins of soup, two slices of bread,
and two plates of potatoes, and afterwards refused to
pay more than 3d.
Commissioner Dubois asked the defendant what be
bad to say ? Defendant (scratching his head)—Arrab,
an then I've the law all on me own side.

Commissioner—Let us hear what your law is. De-
fendant—Doesn't he he say, then, that you may have
a dinner and supper for 3.1. ?
Commissioner—He has not said anything of the sort.
Defendant—l tell ye has. Let ycr honour go and
dine with him. and you'il see it in great big letters in the
window.—(A laugh.)
Mr. Commissioner Dubois—l don't think I shall do
myself the pleasure, of isiting him. (To plaintiff)—
Are there such words as defendant has mentioned in
your window ? Plaintiff—There are.
Mr. Dubois—Then what have you to grumble about ?
Plaintiff—He had two allowances.

Defeudant—l hadn't had my dinner, and I thought
I'd have it and my supper at the same time, es I could
have them for threcpence.—( Loud laughter.)
Plaintiff—Although it says a dinner and supper for
threepence, I tneaa that a customer may have such meals
for threepence each.
Mr. Dubois (to plaintiff)—According to your own ad-
mission you hold out to the public that you will supply
a dinner and supper for threepence, and ignorant per-
sons may easily be led into the mistake under which the
defendant labours. NViiile you have such a statement
in your window you inuit put up with the consequences.
The Court will grant you no redress.

MARVELLOUS PROPHECY.

Th 7 Frankfurt, Gcrman paper, of the 11th of January,
1841, contains the following:—
" In the French Pyrennees ( Haut Commingos) there
lives, in great poverty and seclusion from the world, an
old man named Bug de Milhas, who for more than half
a century has been looked upon by his countrymen as a
prophet, but he has not often prt;mulgated his predictions,

" In the year 1780 he foretld the revolution of 1789.

" I i 1793 the rise of Napoleon and in 1812 his fsll.
" In 18fi8 he predicted the revolution of July, 1830.

" Since then hq has been silent until now, when he sends
forth the following astounding propliecy :—"Fhat in 184
a war will again break out, in which Great Britain will ha
annihilated; Paris rcdueed to a mere spot ; and priests
lawyers tlitapperix." flowerer Crazy in its zeparate pre-
dictions this last prophecy may appear, it is creating a great
sensation in a large portion of France, amongst the super-
stitious masses."

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

51ANCIIESTER-TUESDAY EVENING.

Bloomsbury was again destined to shine conspicuous,
The same gentleman who has on several occasions freely
supported him laid, wilt considerable readiness, 63- to 1 in
scores, then 70 to 10 twice over, and afterwards said
" done" to 80 to 10 ; however, his closing offer, "to a
sum," was 7to 1. This price would prob4bly have been
pencilled down when the room broke up, as a party came
forward and accepted 70 to 20 four times over on Blooms-
bury and Gallipot ; and, by way of cover, one of the gen-
tle:men seemed anxious to get 7 to 1 on Bloomsbury, but
his staunch opponent had departed. 11 to Ito a little
money, was laid against Gallipot ; and, in several instances
100 to 7 was ofEred against Retriever—it was wanted to 6.
No one seemed disposed to make a fourth favourite. In vain
indeed, did one of the leading turf gentlemen offer 100 to
6 to find out the fourth favourite. 20 to 1 was laid against
the Young.un ; 100 to 6 offered against Tuly ; 100 to 4
agst Sir George (takers at 30); 100 to 4 agst Ernest the
First (takers at 30); 100 to 3 agst the Jovial Bachelor
(offered freely) ; 6 to 4 offered on.Bloomsbury v. Gallipot.
Even money was laid that Bloomsbury runs, and even that
he wins.

THE DERET.-20 to 1 apper.red much wanted, to exe-
cute a commission, on Eringo, 19 to 1 seemPd the top
offer; the same gentleman wanted 25 to 1 in scores on
the Knight of the Whistle; 20 to 1 was offered agst each;
he accepted 600 to 20 on Rosalie; 15 to I in fifties was
offered apt. all the fillies; and, in a very good quarter,
4 to 1, to a sum, v. " Scott's lot ;" 400 to 10 was offered
at the close v. Brother to Tom, and 200 to 3 agst. Gam-
mon Box. We did not bear Palmmon and some others
named, nor was the Oaks touched upon.
THE ST. LEGER.-4 to 1 would have been taken that

(Price 55.), renders Common Oil equal to the finest
Sperm. This is without drawback, viz. :—no alteration of
the Lamp, no excessive heat, no breakage of chimney glasses,
nor stoppage of the lamp tubes by coagulation of the oil ;
in fact, nothing more is required than that the Oxydator
should fit the lamp burner, to obtain a bi illiant, innocuous,
and powerful flame. As a lamp i 3 kept burning for the free

LAW ARID POLICE.

In the Court of Admiralty yesterday, a suit was
brought, at the instance of the Crown, against the steam
vessel the Duke of Sussex, belonging to the Commercial
Steam-packet Company, for damage done to her Ma-
jesty's steam vessel Lightning, on the 3d of January,
1841. The vessels came in collision, and both were
damaged ; the Lightning to the amount of 301., and
the Duke of Sussex 461. The officer in command of the
Queen's steamer acted on the rule laid down by the Tri-
nity-house, that vessels on different courses should put
their helms a-port when there is a risk of collision,
while the Duke of Sussex put her helm to starboard.
The Trinity Masters were of opinion that the Duke of
Sussex was in the wrong, and the Court pronounced for
the damage.

of corded silk and India rubber, by which it is impossible for
the hairs ever to come loosa in the mouth ; they are the only
kind that can be warranted from corroding ; persons frequently
get bad teeth and gums from these causes, the corroion being
ptiison to the breath, and cancer to the gums. Families in:town
