not within the exceptions in a proclaimed district, or
in a limitcd portion thereof, to deliver up their arms
by a particular day at the nearest police-station, and
the neglect to do so is to be punished as a misde-
meanour, in like manner as for having arms on the
person if a license has not been obtained for retain-
ing these arms. A search may be made
for arms in the districts thus proclaimed,
on a warrant by the Chief or Under-Secretary ; but
this search is only to take place in the day-time.
Persons sending threatening letters within the pro-
claimed districts are to be amenable to the penalties
imposed by what are termed " The Whiteboy
Acts." The most valuable provision of the 13111,
however, is, that where any murder has been com-
mitted or attempted, or there is reasonable grounds
to suspect that such an attempt had been made, the
justices and constables are to be empowered to call
upon all persons between the age of sixteen and
sixty, residing or being in the district, to assist in
the search for and pursuit of the parties charged with
the crime ; and any person refusing to assist in such
pursuit and search will be guilty of misdemeanour,
and liable to two years' imprisonment with or without
hard labour. This will strike most effectually at that
apparent apathy with which those frightful murders
that have disgraced the country have been regarded
by the people.

Among the different recommendations contained
in the Royal Speech, delivered by commission, not
the least certain to obtain the attention of Parlia-
ment and the encouragement of the popular voice, is
the one which has reference to sanitary improve-
ments. Under any circumstance this reform would
inevitably be promoted by all classes of politicians, if
only from the motive of self-preservation. A variety
of occurrences have tended, however, to enforce the
arguments of its more distinguished advocates, and to
precipitate these movements which can alone lead to its
realization. The deplorable increase of mortality, as
shown in the periodical returns of the Registrar-
General, has acted as an additional and irresistible
incitement to those who are struggling for the phy-
sical preservation of the community. The prevalence
of crime and immorality in the more abandoned lo-
calities of eur larger towns has proved an effectual
stimulus to those who are labouring for the moral
advantage of the population. The havoc ef-
fected by contagious and epidemic diseases,
and the exaggerated terror inspired by the
westward progress of the Asiatic cholera, have alike
hastened the exertions and given force to the agita-
tion in favour of the establishment of a wholesome
scheme of sanitary regulations.
It: co isequence of the reflecticns inspired by these
ende&vours to secure the health and lives of the mul-
titude, the fact has latterly forced itself upon the
comprehension of the more intelligent that, in spite
of all our vaunted civilization and all our boasted en-
lightenment, we are, in regard to all matters apper-
taining to physical comfort and enjoyment, im-
measurably inferior to the people of a pagan
antiquity. Enormous and substantial sewers—con-
structed with materials as durable as granite, and on
a scale of such peculiar magnitude that a carriage
and six might be driven through them with more
facility than under the gateway of the Victoria
Tower—still attest among the ruins of Rome the en-
terprise, the judgment, and the unbounded luxury of
the inhabitants of that imperial metropolis. The re-
mains of those extraordinary fabrics still con-
tinue as if to constitute a practical satire

upon the miserable system of drainage which eh&

racterises the capital of Great Britain in the middle
of the nineteenth century. Instead of such costly
productions as were raised in the excavations made

by the Roman engineers, and which carried away all
noxious and pestilential refuse alike from the palaces
and workshops of that gigantic city, the most strag-
gling►, the most incomplete, and the most inefficacious
channels—of a size ridiculously diminutive and
of materials as perishable as brick—undermine the
streets of London, to carry away immense quantities
of decomposed matter to contaminate the waters of
the Thames, and to arise in putrid exhalations to the
windows of those dwellings which are contiguous to the
silent highway. What is strikingly dissimilar between
the ancient and modern systems of sewerage is still
snore remarkable in reference to the facilities afforded
of old and now-a-days, for the supply of water to a
dense population. Before the science of hydraulics
had demonstrated that most beneficent law of nature,
that liquids will rise to their original level, the Ro-
mans had conquered the most extraordinary engineer-
ing difficulties, and the most singular geographica4
obstructions, for the purpose of conveying water
to the seven hills along the grooves of their
superb and splendid aqueducts. Such was
the importance attached in those days to
that most necessary of all the elements of
existence I And now, when more can be effected
through a pipe of iron or even of earthenware than
was formerly effected by structures of marble built
arch upon arch, connecting the hill-tope and span-
ning the valleys of Italy, there is a perpetual
drought in many quarters of our metropolis ;
and the miseries arising from insufficient drainage
are enhanced by those produced by the insufficient
supplies of the water necessary for household con-
sumption.

These two grievous wants on the part of the com-
munity will, of course, be the principal objects to-
wards which the enterprise of the Sanitary Commis-
sioners will be directed. Better sewerage, and the
conveyance of water to every tenement, will be the
foremost of the improvements which those ofil-
cials will endeavour to insure to the population.
The abolition of that most extravagant and unnatural
of all imposts—the window-tax—will enable the
people to obtain larger quantities of light ; and the
organization of a regular plan of inspection will
secure to the labouring classes a proper amount of
ventilation. The law will secure this advantage to
the industrial poor by rendering the ventilation of
their dwelling-houses incumbent upon their land-
lords, and the ventilation of their workshops
incumbent upon their employers.
Excellent as have been the former efforts made for
effecting speedy and comprehensive sanitary improve-
ments—the employment of lecturers—the publica-
tion of pamphlets—the establishment of a magazine
and a newspaper—and similar plans of agitation based
upon a system which has been legitimatized by the suc-
cess of the Anti-Corn-law League, we are sanguine
that these great social reforms may be in a particular
manner hastened by the grand demonstration which
will shortly take place under the presidency of that
most distinguished nobleman the Marquis of Non-
MANDY. Coming, as this assembly will do, so soon
4fter the emphatic recommendation of sanitary im-
provements contained in her MAJESTY'S most gracious
Speech, it will be impossible that the progress of the
cause can be much longer retarded, either through the
apathy of individuals or the procrastination of the
Government. The impulse has been given; it cannot
be counteracted. A sanitary commission has been
organized; it cannot be disorganized with impunity.
The present Administration, through the first Lord
of the Treasury, is pledged to this great labour of
moral and physical amelioration. The QUEEN already
wills it—la Reine le veut. Parliament cannot
shrink from its deliberation—the popular demands
must be at once and permanently satisfied.

The following account of the Ministerial crisis in
Naples, appears in the Allgemeine Zeitung
" On Sunday, the 14th, the King sent for Santangelo,
and expressed to him his intention of dividing the Mi-
nistry of the Interior into two departments, and to entrust
one of them to Prince Comitini. Santangelo defended
the integrity of his Ministry, and finished by tendering
his resignation, as his Majesty turned a deaf ear to his
counsels. The King accepted it. Pietracatella has, it
is said, followed the example of Santangelo. The Prince
of Causpofranco is spoken of as his successor. Ferri,
tho Mini%ter of Finance, has, at his own request, been
placed on the retired list, and is replaced by Giustino
Fortunivo. Delcaretto is spoken of as the new Minister
of War."

Madrid journals of the 23d have arrived.
The Chamber of Deputies is still occupied with the
verification of the returns.

BuLwna had, it is said, remonstrated against
the decree recently issued, imposing additional duties
on foreign mixed woollen and cotton goods. It is
expected that the French Ambassador will also re-
monstrate against it.

We have received the Paris papers of Sunday.
The capture of Lucerne is the theme of comment
in all of them. This event is generally considered
as the termination of the war. The Delais, however,
still urges the small cantons and the canton of Valais
to resist. The late Government of Lucerne has retired
with the troops of Uri and Unterwalden ; and, inas-
much as those, reinforced by the troops of ;Lucerne,
were defeated by General DUFOUR, and the out-
works of Lucerne carried by storm in spite of them,
it is not probable that they will attempt further re-
sistance. The C onstitutionn :1 has the following sen-
sible observations on this subject :

" Humanity,' said the Journal des Debuts in one of
its lucid intervals, humanity imposes on us the duty of
wishing that the resignation exhibited at Friburg may
be imitated at Lucerne.' That wish has been carried
into effect, since Lucerne has capitulated like Friburg.
There have been several engagements in which the
troops of the Sonderbund have been constantly worsted.
This terrible canton of Lucerne, which the Debate, re-
penting its humanity of a day, endeavoured to represent
to us as almost invincible, was invaded, run over, and
brought under subjection in the space of 24 hours at
most. Is was not that Lucerne was deficient in brave
soldiers, military vanity, experienced generals, well-
fortified towns, and valleys easy of defence ; but
Lucerne, like Friburg and like Zug, had not faith in
its own cause ; the population revolted with regret
against the Diet—everything was factitious on the
side of the Sonderbund in this civil war. Had it
been otherwise, is it to be supposed that the canton of
Lucerne would have given in with its whole population
in such haste ? Were not the troops of Schwytz, Uri,
and Unterwalden united to those of Lucerne, and could
they not support a long siege ? Were not the Jesuits
perfectly aware that M. Guizot was making infinite
efforts to draw Europe into an Intervention, and that
above all he demanded, in order to succeed, that the
war should be as much as possible prolonged ? But if
the Jesuits had in their favour M. Guizot and his
journal, they had not the heart of the populations,
compromised by them in the quarrel. The prompt
fall of Lucerne after that of Friburg, that is to say
of the two most considerable cantons of the Son-
derbund, consequently complicates exceedingly the
'enterprise of our inventor of European congresses.
The English Government, in its moderation, had judged
matters with a much sounder mind. After a lengthened
resistance to the importunities of M. Guizot, the British
Nlinistry did not yield except on conditions which
render all intervention impossible. The very phrase
employed in the Queen's Speech, and which has not been
sufficiently remarked, is a check for the system of inti-
midation which our Ministry wished to adopt with re-
spect to Switzerland. England, in fact, seizes on the
opportunity to characterise the first the conferences
proposed between the five Powers to determine their
object, to specify the very conditions of their
adhesion; and it does this in terms which may re-assure
the Helvetic Confederation by promising it implicitly
a support against every attack on its neutrality and its
independence. Her Majesty,' says the British Go-
vernment, is in communication relative to the affairs
of Switzerland with her allies, and is anxious to em-
ploy, in concert with them, her friendly influence to re-
store to the Swiss Confederation the blessings of peace.'
There is a very great difference between this amiable,
loyal, and pacific language, and the furious articles of
our Ministerial journal, and the odious act of our
Ministry in smuggling in cannon into Switzerland in
order to prolong the civil war. The victory of General
Dufour is not an embarrassment for the English Minis-
try, the representative of which is still at Berne ; but
it is a grave contradiction given to the provisions, hopes,
and designs of our Ministry."

It would appear from an article in the same paper,
that the French are extremely dissatisfied with the
convention with England regulating the fisheries.
The French have already the power of fishing within
six miles of the English coast ; but with this they are
not content. We trust, however, that our Govern-
ment will resist any overtures that may be made for
conferring on the French fishermen further powers,
and that they will rigidly enforce the law against all
French fishermen found fishing within the forbidden
limits.

M. NAPOLEON DUCIIATEL has refused the embassy
to Turin, in consequence of the ungracious manner
in which the offer of it was made to him by M.
GUIZOT.

ness was done.

VICE-CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY).
(Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.)
His Honour the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND sat
to-day in his Court in Lincoln's Inn to give judgments
and hear motions. To-morrow is the first seal after
Michaelmas Term, and consequently the first regular
motion day, but his Honour sat this morning for the
convenience of the Bar, and in order to dispose of any
cases that might press.
UILLESPIE V. DARNEWELL AND OTHERS.—JUDGMENT.
His HoNotra gave judgment to-day in this case, the
arguments in which were concluded on the sth of
the present month. The case came before the
Court upon the motion for an injunction, to
restrain the defendant Barnewell, who is the public
officer of the London Commercial Bank, from proceed-
ing with an action in the Court of Common Pleas, to
recover the sum of 4,0001., which had been advanced to
a society of which the plaintiff was a member. It ap-
peared that a society, which was called the Colonial
Society, of which the plaintiff, Lord Mountcashell, and
other gentlemen were members, about the year 1842,
became in need of funds, in consequence of some
changes which had lately been made in the constitution
of the club. Under such circumstances a meeting was
called, and it was resolved the committee of manage-
ment should be empowered to borrow a sum of 4,000/.
from the Commercial Bank of London, of which one
of the directors was also a member of the club. After
some negotiation the bank consented to advance the
necessary amount, on condition that the banking
account of the club should be transferred to them.
The sum so advanced, however, proved insufficient to
free the society from its embarrassments; and accord-
ingly, the loan not being repaid, after some delay the
bank commenced an action against Lord Mountcashell,
as a principal member of the club, for the amount. The
action was at /rat defended by Lord Mountcashell, and
set down for trial; but it was eventually compromised,
on Lord Mountcashell giving security for the debt, the
bank at the same time undertaking, as was alleged, to
bring such actions, within certain restrictions, as Lord
Mountcashell should request, against some other mem-
bers of the club, of whom the plaintiff was one. Pre-
viously to this agreement a meeting was held by some
members of the club, at which it was agreed that a con-
tribution should be made; and, accordingly, several hun-
dred pounds were raised and paid to Mr. Westmacott, who
was a member of the society, and took an active part in
procuring contributions, in order to be paid to the bank.
In pursuance of this arrangement, a sum of 1,0001. was
actually paid to the bank, in consideration of which the
bank gave further time to Lord Mountcashell for pay-
ment of the sum secured by his bond. Of the 1,0001. so
paid, a portion of 2501. and 100/. was contributed by the
plaintiff, who was ignorant of the arrangement between
the bank and Lord Mountcashell. Under these circum•
stances the plaintiff, considering that he had paid more
than his share of the debt of the club, which it was
stated consisted of five hundred members, filed his bill
for an injunction to restrain the proceedings in the action
brought against him. His Honour, after going shortly
through the facts of the case, granted the injunction in
the terms asked by the plaintiff.
Injunction granted.
STROTHER V. DUTTON.—*DGMENT.
His HONOUR also gave judgment in this case, agreeing
with the Master in the rejection of certain evidence, and
wend of the exceptions, with costs.
The Court then proceeded to hoar motions, but no
case of any interest, except to the parties concerned,
came before his Honour during the morning.

QUEEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.)
,Sittings at Nisi Prius, before the Lotto CHIEF JUSTICE
and a Common Jury.)
FELTHOUSE V. XING.

This was an indictment for perjury. The defendant
had gone before a judge at chambers and made affidavit
that the prosecutor owed him 24L upon an I 0 U, and
' was about to quit the country, whereupon the Judge
made an order for the arrest of the prosecutor ; and on
his subsequently being declared a bankrupt it turned out
that he owed no such sum as 241. to the defendant, nor
had ho ever given him any I 0 U, and hence arose the
present indictment for perjury.
Mr. PARRY addressed the jury for the defendant, and
stated that the I 0 U, although it could not be forth-
coming, was still in existence, and it would therefore be
an act of cruelty to convict the defendant of perjury
upon the evidence of a man who had been imprisoned by
the Bankruptcy Court.
The jury, after a short consultation, found the de-
fendant guilty.
The defendant was then called upon to state if he had
anything to urge why judgment ehould not be passed
upon him.

The defendant replied that a party had just come into
Court who had possession of the I 0 U.
The LORD CHIEF JUGTIOE directed the document to
be given up and impounded, and the judgment of the
Court was deferred.

House of Commons, Nov. 29.

House of Cummons, Nov. 29.

Sir,—My attention has only this morning been drawn
to some observations reported in The Sun of Saturday
last, as having been made by you as coroner of East
Middlesex in your charge to the jury in the case of ma-
tricide at Hackney.
" You are there represented as having stated that the
unfortunate )oung man, William Stewart Sheridan, now
confined within the walla of a prison on the dreadful
charge of matricide, was no other than the grandson
of the celebrated Sheridan,' who, you were pleased to
add, on the authority of a libellous work, never spoke
in the House of Commons without the inspiration of
half a pint of brandy;' after which you are reported to
have remarked, 'Bitter indeed must have been his re-
flections, could he but have been conscious of the legacy
he thus bequeathed to his posterity, viz., the hereditary
inheritance of a broken constitution, a debilitated body,
and attenuated form.'

" I will ❑ot trust myself to comment on these gra-
tuitous and cruel observations. I hope I may give you
credit for not intending to wound the feelings of the late
Mr. Sheridan's family. The assertions you have made
are totally without foundation, and I beg they may be
immediately contradicted as publicly as they have been
made.

" The unfortunate man now committed to prison oa. acharge of wilful murder, bearing a name very common 10
Ireland, is not only no relation to the family of the late
Mr. IL B. Sheridan, to whom you have so disrespectfully
alluded, but his existence until now was wholly unknown
to them. The only male descendant of Mr. Sheridan 109

MARYLEBONE THEATRE.
Beaumont and Fletcher's comedy of the Scornful
Lady was revived here last evening, with great success.
Mr. T. J. Serle was the adapter, and of course he has
used the scissors unsparingly, for so grossly licentious Is
the play as originally written that it is absolutely not
producible in its orignal state. Mr. Serle has not 01119
omitted much, but he has also introduced much, and that
always with good judgment and excellent taste. Mrs.
e'arner's assumption of the Scornful Lady was all that
could be desired. She was well supported by Mr.
Graham, and the others members of the company. The
costumes (taken from the drawings of Colonel Charles
Hamilton Smith) were minutely correct, and the mire en
scene was superb.

Mendelssohn's Elijah is to be again performed by
the Sacred Harmonic Society on Friday next. The

THE LATH ROBBERY OF 8001. AT THE GREAT
WESTERN TERMlNUS.—Yesterday morning, about half-
past six o'clock, as some carters were coming along the
Bath road, leading from Hounslow, their attention was
attracted to a large substance in the water of one of the
branches of the river Colne. It was found to be a sack
containing some weighty substance. On being examined,
it was found to be the sides and all other parts of the
iron chest stolen a few days since from the Paddington
Terminus, containing a large sum of money,
of the Bank of England. Information of the discovery
was promptly communicated to the railway authorities.
This discovery is considered as likely to lead to the de-
tection of the guilty parties.

SUICIDE IN THE SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDE
Yesterday, between the hours of one and two o'clock,
respectably-dressed female presented herself at the ell;

ticket of admission, there being nothing in her appear'
ante or manner at the time to excite the slightest sus-
picion on the part of the person receiving her moll;
After passing through the gate, she proceeded through
the gardens to the south-west corner, where she Was
lost sight of. Soon after Joseph Roberts, one of Mr.
Tyler's servants, having occasion to go into one of the
places of convenience near the giraffes' house, was much
shocked at finding the unfortunate young woman •
corpse. Mr. Iliff, a surgeon, was sent tor, and promptly
attended, but at once pronounced her death to have been
instantaneous, and produced by prussic acid, of which
deadly poison she had taken a large quantity from a
phial found upon her. In her pocket was found a papers
on which was written, " Ann Smith, at Mrs. Meens.
