half-monthly account in Railway Shares.

LOND( )N, TBLIRSDAY. NOVEMBER 18, 1847

Parliament has enough in all conscience to arrange
before the Christmas vacation. Something must lse
done about Currency—however much the Chancellor
of the Exchequer may be disposed to remain in indo-
lence amidst the disasters of a monetary panic. Some-
thing must be done about Ireland—for the mitiga-
tion of the sufferings inseparable from a wintry
season id that impoverished country, and especially
for the diminution (if possible) of those agrarian
assassinations which desolate a ehristian land as
though its people were the votaries of Thuggee•
Something must be done about the reorganization of
the Penal Settlements, and something must—at the
least—be said about Educational and Sanitary im-
provements. Lord JOHN RUSSELL must say his
eatechism ; Sir Cu Ali LES WOOD ditto; Sir
WILLIAM SOMERVILLE ditto; Earl GREY, ditto
Lord PALMERSTON ditto. There will be a
multiplicity of interrogations ; and whenever
the replies cannot be satisfactory they will
no doubt be delightfully evasive. At the best, how-
ever, very little more must be anticipated than what
is preparative to the comprehensive enactments re-
served for the session of 1848. The fascinations of
grouse-shooting and deer-stalking may bediminished,
but there will soon be a new allurement in the re-
currence of the festivities of December.
Before any of these preparatory steps can be taken
by the Legislature, before even the Speech from the
Throne can

The order of proceeding in Parliament this day will,
we believe, be as follows:—The Commons will assem-
ble en masse about one o'clock. About two they will be
summoned by the Usher of the Black Rod to attend in
the House of Peers. Having arrived there, headed by
Mr. Ley, the chief clerk, they will be desired by the
Lord Chancellor, speaking in obedience to royal com-
mission, Ito proceed to the election of a Speaker. The
Commons will then return to their own House. Mr.
Shaw Lefevro will be proposed and seconded. The
leaders of Opposition and the Minister will probably
speak in laudation of the Right Honourable Gentleman;
he will be led to the chair by his proposer and seconder,
and return thanks. The House will then adjourn. On
Friday the Speaker and the Commons will go to the
House of Peers and answer to the royal commission that
he has been chosen. He will at the same time claim the
privilege of speech, &c., for the Lower House. The
Lord Chancellor, in her Majesty's name, will approve
the selection of Speaker and accord the privileges
claimed. The Speaker will then return to the House of
Commons, and the swearing in of Hon. Members will
commence. This operation will continue during Satur-
day and Monday's sittings. On Tuesday her Majesty's
speech will be delivered.—Post.
FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE GLASGOW QUAT.—The
body of the unfortunate individual noticed in yesterday's
Mail as having been drowned, on Saturday at the har-
bour, was recovered on Sunday morning at low water.
From appearance he seemed to have been about fortl,
years of age, middle-sized, and was dressed in a black
and white tartan shooting-coat, black trousers, and tar-
tan vest. There was found on his persoa the sum of
1L fis. and a few coppers. The body was taken to the
Clyde receiving house, whero it remains for the purpose
of being, if possible, identified.—North British Mail.
Mr. S. G. Bonham had an interview with Earl
Grey yesterday,

London, England, 1847-11-18

The complainants slid that the regular watermen
of the stand left at eight o'clock every night, when
their place was supplied by " touters." One of the
watermen remained at the watering house, but he
never attended to the cabs.
Mr. HALL sent a message to the Hackney-carriage
Office, and Mr. Fitch, one of the clerks, attended. His
worship repeated the above statement to him, and re-
quested him to see that better order was enforced at
this rank. _ _

Mr. Fitch said it should be attended to.
Mr. HALL ordered the prisoner to pay ls. Bd. for
the damage done to the window, or be imprisoned for
five days, and 40s. for the assault, or be imprisoned
for fourteen days.
The two watermen attached to the rank attended
in the course of the afternoon to contradict the state-
ment of White. They said the stand was never left
for a moment unattended, either by day or by night.
Aft. HALL said that if the facts were as stated by
White, it was very disgraceful to the watermen. He
had nothing more to say on the subject.

WESTMINSTER.

Mary Fox, a middle-aged woman, was charged
with stealing a very handsome terrier dog, the pro-
perty of Lady Emily Stratford, of No. 40, Wilton-
terrace.
John Fitzgerald, a servant in her Ladyship's esta-
blishment, stated that he was walking through Cado-
gan-place at about half-past five on Tuesday.afternoon,
when he suddenly missed the dog, which he had seen
but a minute before running by his side. Finding
that the prisoner was the only person near him, he
asked her whether she had got the dog ? She re-
plied " No;" but had hardly uttered the word when
the dog put his head out from under her cloak, and
he immediately took the animal away from her. She
then pulled out a portion of a broken garden pot and
swore she would scratch his eyes out with it ; she
struck him and knocked his hat off.
James Light, 128 B, proved taking the prisoner into
custody. She abused the servant, and on her way to
the station declared that she never touched the dog,
but subsequently admitted that she stooped down to
look at it. On searching her, a cigar case, two
purses, and a teetotal medal, were found upon her—
the last suspended from her neck.
Prisoner said in answer to the charge, " I didn't
take it ; if I did I am very sorry; I had had a drop
to drink."
Light, in reply to an inquiry from the magistrate,
said that he was not aware that she had ever been
before charged with an offence of this description.
She was well known as a beggar.
Mr. BRODERIP convicted her in the value of the
dog (100, with the addition of 51. penalty for the
offence; and, in default of payment, committed her
for three months.

REGULATIONS AT W4RD3IOTES.

Alderman WiesoN gave notice of a !notion rela-
tive to the holding of warthnotes on St. Thomas's
Day, to prevent any difficulties which might arise in
the performance of the Aldermanic duties on the oc-
casion of the elections.
"+ItISON DISCIPLINE.
Alderman SIDNEY gave notice of motion, that it be
referred to a committee to report upon the expe-
diency of consolidating the gaol of New ate h ith
the intended new house of correction at Holloway;
also to report upon the most eligible site for con-
structing a new sessions house, capable of affording
three courts, with increased accommodation to wit-
nesses and others attending the sessions, as also for a
new house of detention contiguous sufficiently large
for remanded prisoners, and prisoners conveyed from
the common gaol for trial.
Alderman COPELAND brought up the report of the
Gaol Committee, which stated that three of the turn-
keys of Newgate had been discharged from their
situations, for having permitted spirits and tobacco to
be brought to some of the prisoners.
The report was confirmed by the Court.

Alderman SIDNEY said he had a memorial of very

embraced all

he should read it asofpt.rt of his speech in introdu-

LO-ND,)N, THURSDAY. NOVEMBER IS, 1847.

Parliament has enough in all conscience to arrange
before the Christmas vacation. Something must be
done about Currency—however much the Chancellor
of the Exchequer may be disposed to remain in indo-
lence amidst the disasters of a monetary panic. Some-
thing must be done about Ireland—for the mitiga-
tion of the sufferings inseparable from a wintry
season in that impoverished country, and especially
for the diminution (if possible) of those agrarian
assassinations which desolate a ehristian land as
though its people were the votaries of Thuggee•
Something must be done about the reorganization of
the Penal Settlements, and something must—at the
least—be said about Educational and Sanitary On-
provements. Lord JOHN RUSSELL must say his
oateehism ; Sir CHARLES WOOD ditto; Sir
WILLIAM SOMERVILLE ditto; Earl GREY, ditto
Lord PALMERSTON ditto. There *ll be a
multiplicity of interrogations; and whenever
the replies cannot be satisfactory they will
no doubt be deliAtfully evasive. At the best, how.
ever, very little more must be anticipated than what
is preparative to the comprehensive enactments re-
served for the session of 1848. The fascinations of
grousershootling and deer-stalking may bediminished,
but there will soon be a new allurement in the re-
currence of the festivities of December.

of a friend for six weeks, but had not been able to
get change for it in town. The note was accordingly
presented by this man at Barclay's, where a Bank of
England note was given in exchange for it. The
prisoner, on receiving the latter, changed it at a
public-house, and lent his acquaintance half a-sove-
reign out of it, stating that he should have to pay it
all back within six weeks. Meanwhile, complaints
having been made at the General Post-office respect-
ing the miscarriage of the country note, which had
been sent by a Mr. Burly,:of Wisbeach, to a Mr.
Cragg, watchmaker, in Northampton. square, an in-
quiry was instituted, and the above information
elicited from the grocer's assistant who changed the
note for the prisoner.
Peake, the constable attached to the Post-office,
proved that the prisoner, on being first charged with
the offence, denied all knowledge of the letter, the
note, or the man to whom he had given it ; but, on
being confronted with the latter, he said he should
"decline saying anything then."
Other evidence being necessary to complete the case,
Mr. JARDINE remanded the prisoner for further
examination.
