The objects of this Company are to carry oa mining, agricultural,
and trading operations in the Eastern Archipelago, and the acquiring
and disposing of lands in the Island of Labuan and the parts adjacent
—a region abounding in mineral wealth, must fertile in all the valu-
able tropical productions, and very happily situate for the purposes
of commerce.
't he Island of Labuan has beets formally taken possession of by the
Crown of Great Britain ; and, by a treaty with the Sultan of Iderneo,
many highly important advantages are permanently secured to this
country. Piracy ha the eastern seas will now be effectually suppressed,
and, under the protection of the British flag at Labuan a new era
as regards those regions, has commenced, which afford. the most fa-
vourable opportunity for successfully accomplishieg the objects of this
Company.
To those who are at all acquainted with the Indian Archipelago, it
is wholly unnecessary to expatiate on the advantages to be derived
from this undertaking. The important discovery of au abundant sup-
ply of excellent coal on the mainland of Borneo, in tie immediate vi-
cinity of Labuan, is a circumstance which of itself would render this
enterprise pregnant with the most beneficial results. A. formal grant
of this coal, extending through a district of about 150 miles, has been
obtained front the Sultan of Borneo, and is, with the approval of her
Majesty's Government, now held by Mr. Wise, with whom arraige-
ments for its working will be made.
The working of the coal mines will form an important feature In
the operations of the Company,
The geographical position of the Borneo coal districts in relation to
our Eastern possessions, tusd to the steam communications which are
now carried on, and others which are about to be carried on in con-
nexion therewith, is a matter of peculiar interest, and even of na-
tional importance. Tie Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation
Company, for instance, disburse more Ban 130,0001. annually fur
coal for their steam-vessels, of which suns about 90,0001. are ex-
pended in coal used to the eastward of the Cape of Good llo,)e. This
coal. as wall as the requisite supplies for the steam vessels of her
Majesty's navy, and fur those of the Honourable East India Com-
pany on the India and China stations, is at present chiefly furnished
from England, at en average cost exceeding 335. per toil ; so that the
expenditure by her Majesty's Oovernment, the Honourable East In-
dia Company. sad the l'onins4ar and Oriental Company for the sin-
gle item of coal, will be considerably reduced as soon as the opera-
tions of the Eastern Archipelago Company aro sufficiently matured
to admit of their supplying the several depots which have been esta-
blished at Hong•Rong, Singapore, and other places, with coal for the
use of the many. British and Foreign ste. m-vessels re-orting to those

ports.
The certain increase in the consumption of coal in the eastern
seas, from the causes already mentioned, and the opening of other
channels of demand, cannot tail eventually to augment the use of
Borneo coal. The projected steam communication between Singapore
and our Aostrallau colonies—the probable communication by the
same means at no distant period, between the various British settle-
ments to the eastward of the Cape of Good Hope and the west coast
of America—as well as the system of railways now about to be esta-
blished in India—are events eminently calculated to occasion an
immemo consumption of Borneo coal, the more is as it can be sup-
plied at comparatively moderate rates. Samples of the Labuan and
Borneo coal have been brought over to this country by Mr. Wise,
and submitted by her Majesty's Government to a careful examination
and analysis by competent parties, with a most satisfactory result.
The Borneo coal has also been pronounced by the Calcutta t oal
Committee, appointed by the Bengal Government, to be equal to the
best English coal ; and Captain Wallage, in his report on the supplies of
coal obtained front the seam at Labuan, for the use of the lionsurable
East India Company's steam-ship Nemesis, elated Sarawak, 10111
June, 1847, observes—" I have no hesitation in stating that the coal
received at Labuan is equal to any English coal I have seen on board
steamers in India, and decidedly better titan any coal worked in

India for steam purposes.'
The portion of territory contemplated for the first operations of the
Eastern Archipelago Company possesses a climate aid suit admir-
ably adapted for the culture of cotton, tobacco, sugar, coffee, rice,
nutmegs, pepper, and other ♦aluable peoductious, and is most
favourably situate, having the advantage of Labuan, now subject to
British dominion, as a point d'appui ; nor can there be a doubt of
the excellent position if the proposed field of enterprise for an ex-
tensive and lucrative commerce. The proximity of Java, Sumatra,
Siam, Cochin-China, Hainan, Manila, Celebes, &c., is not oily of
great importance in this respect, but also as affording the means of
introducing with facility from those places Chinese and °the r cold
nists, and labourers to any extent required for the service of the
Company. Labuan itself will form an essential link in the chain of
our eastern settlements, from Penang„ Malacca, and Singapore to
Hong Kong ; and in the district of Sarawak every protection and
encouragement will be granted by Mr. Brooke in furtherance of the
Company's objects. In short, every circumstance justifies the anti-
ciz,ation that the late proceedings of the British Government relatieg
to Borneo, if followed up with vigour by the operations of the pre-
scut Company, will change that which has been heretofore a region
of piracy, lawless violence, danger and desolations, into a scene of
busy, peaceful, and beneficial commerce; bringing the advantages of
progressive civilisation to a large and fertile tract of the globe, and
conferring extensive benefits on the commerce and manufactures of
Great Britain. The philanthropist and the statesman, as wed as the
merchant, will thus feel interested in this design, which, through the
medium of British enterprise, sanctioned and protected by the wis-
dom and decision of the Government, promises the amelioration of
the condition of the natives of the Indian Archipelago, among whole
there exists a disposition most favourable to the development el the
resources of those countries.
The view here taken of the promising character of the underittk-
ing is not hypothetical, but is the result of the arduous personal re-
searches of various individuals, who, in times past, have been de-
sirous of widening the circle (..f commerce and civilization, and,
among others more recently, of Mr. Wise, who has for several years
devoted his time to the closest investigation of the subject. To his
patient and indefatigable perseverance for a long period in callicig
the attention of her Majesty's Government to the importance of
Lalesan as the site of a British settlement, may be ascribed the fact,
that the protection of our flag is now extended to countries so huportant
both in a political and commercial point of view.
The Queen has appointed Mr. Brooke Governor and C. rnmander-
in-Chief In and over the Island of Labuan and its dependencies, as
well xs her Majesty's Commissioner and Consul-General to the Suiten
and independent chiefs of Borneo. These measures, and the course
of poll •y which they indicate, will materially faciltate and advance
the objects and interests of the Company throughout the Eastern Ar-
chipelago.
The Company being incorporated by Royal Cherter, the responsi-
bility of each shareholder is limited to the amount of his subscrip-
tion. The charter provides for the execution by the shareholders of

The manifold advantages to the Heads of Families from the
possession of a medicine of known efficacy, that may be resorted to
with confidence, and used with success hi cases of temporary sickness
occurring in families, snore or less, every day, are so obvious to all,
that no question can be raised of its importance to every householder
in the kingdom. From among numerous testimonials, tile following

" Sir,—l have much satisfaction in communicating to you the re-
sult of my experience after repeated trials of Framptou's Pill of
Health ; and I feel it bat justice to state, that in the course of many
years' trial of various Aperient Medicines, I have never found results
at once so salutary and efficient in the relief of the system from
redundant bile, &cc., &c., with so little inconvenience ; I ant there-
fore warranted in declaring that they supply to me a means long
wanting of being able to recommend to families, schools, and espe-
cially mercantile men, whether at the desk or on the road, a most
valuable resource in an occasional medicine. And I shall take credit
to myself if, in giving this testimony, I am the means of making
Framptou's tills more generally known and appreciated.—l am,
Sir, respectfully yours, " WILLIAM SMITH."
The unprecedented sale of these Pills, arising from the earnest
recommendations of the many thousands who have derived benefit
from their me, render any lengthened comment unnecessary. They
are not put forth as a cure for all diseases to winds mankind is
liable, but for Bilious and Liver Complaints, with their many well-
known attendants, Bilious and Sick Head•ache, Pain and Oppression
alter meals, tdddiness, Dizniness, Singing Noise in the Head and
Ears, Drowsiness, Heartburn, Less of 4 ppettte. Wind, Spr.sins, &c.
Two or three doses will convince the afflicted of their salutary
effects. The stomach will speedily regain its strength ; a healthy
action of the Liver, Bowels and Kidneys will rapidly take place ;
and instead of listlessness, heat, pains, and jaundiced appearance,
strength, activity, and renewed health, extending to good old age,
will be the result of taking this medicine, according to the directions
accompanying each box.
Sold by T. Front, 229, Strand, London. Price Is. 110. and 2s. 9d.
per box ; and by the Vendors of Medicines generally throughout the
kingdom.

certain representations made by him, letters of allotment
for 670 shares in the said railway, on the terms that
Field, Son, and Bayley should find the purchase money,
and divide the profits.
" That the outlay thereby contemplated by Field, Son,
and Bayley, was about 1001.
" That in consequence of the company (contrary to the
representation of Nelson) refusing to issue scrip to any
but the original allottces, it became necessary (in order
to avoid the loss of the premium given fur the letters of
allotment) to take up the scrip.
" The outlay was thereby increased to above 1,0001.,
in consequence of which, and in order especially to put
an end to a partnership, attended with so much risk,
and of so unequal a character, Field, Son, and Bayley,
became desirous of closing the transaction (as between
themselves and Nelson) on the first opportunity. This,
their desire, was expressed to Nelson on more than one
occasion previous to the 4th of September.
" That it was not until the 4th of Ssptetnber that they
carried out their intention, tuition that day they sold 100
of the shares of ss. premium, and not being able to sell
more in the market at the price, took the remainder
themselves, as they conceive they had a perfect right
to do.

"That the price of ss. premium was the fair and full
market price on the 4th of September, as can be proved
by the evidence of Mr. John Golding, of the Stock•
Exchange, now in attendance.

ligatures. They so perfectly resemble tie natural teeth as not to Is
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they will
never change color or decay, and will be found very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and

WINDOW BREAKING.
Alderman WILSON called the attention of the Court
.o the fact that window-breaking had much increased,
and that the spirit of mischief had increased along with
it to a disproportionate extent, for the delinquents broke
the most valuable windows, when their object of being
locked up in prison could be gained by smashing win-
dows in the same houses of comparatively no value. For
instance, in his ward, on the day before, a pane had
been broken whick cost 95/. He trusted that a clause
would be introduced into one of the Bills to be brought
into Parliament by the Government, calculated to re-
medy the evil, by making the offence upon repetition
twice or thrice, punishable by transportation for seven or

" That the course adopted, on closing the joint Iran.
section, which had been conducted in the name of ' 11.
Nelson and Company,' which included the petitioner and
the firm of Field, Son, and Bayley, was, by snaking out a
sale note for the 670 shares, and charging commission,
which charge was in conformity with the understanding
on which the operation had been entered into. Half of
this commission would, consequently, be paid by Field,
Son, and Bayley themselves.
"That John Field, jun., never concealed from Nelson
the fact of his firm having taken 570 of the shares to
themselves, but is, and always has been, under the im-
pression that Nelson was cognizant of the same. That
on all occasions, when applied to, whether by Nelson,
his former solicitor, Mr. Ewens, or his friend, Mr. Cam-
roux, the fact has been freely admitted.
" That the books of Field, Son, and Bayley wero pro-
duced to Mr. Ewens iu the presence of their solicitor,
Mr. Wootton.
" That the non-registration of the names of Stafford
and Field, Son, and Bailey in the contract-book in the
usual manner is attributable to the pro -forma character
of the sale in question. In the ledger, also produced to
the Court, the names were duly inserted, and the trans-
action posted to the accounts of the respective parties in
the most plain and open manner.
" That Field, Son, and Bailey have repeatedly offered
to leave all matters iu dispute between them and the
petitioner to arbitration, and to the aibitration of Mr.
Camroux, the petitioner's own friend.
" That John Field, jun., is ready to depose to the
above statement on oath, which he respectfully trusts
will, in the opinion of the Court, absolve him from any
imputation of having acted from improper motives, and
he, therefore, prays, that your honourable Court will
be pleased not to take proceediEgs against hiss for any
violation of his bond, which in the judgment of your
honourable Court he may be deemed to have committed.
"March 7, 1848." "JOHN FIELD."
Upon the part of the petitioner, application was made
to adjourn the case until Counsel should be able to
attend.
Mr. FIELD, however, earnestly entreated the mem-
bers, for the sake of his character, which had already
suffered by the statements made against him, to take the
matter at once into consideration.
The Court was soon afterwards cleared, and after a
short deliberation, the Aldermen came to (as we were
given to understand) the almost unanimous resolution
not to put the bond of Mr. Field, jun., in force.
The respondent was called, and the doors wero
opened, and the Town-Clerk read the decision of the
members, which was to the following effect:—" The
Court, considering the circumstances of the case, do not
think it necessary to put your bond in force." Thus ac-
quitting Mr. Field, jun., of all moral blame.

ER AND HO
RAILWAY.
/early meeting of the tetors of this corn-
held yesterday afternoon at the offices of the
Moorgate-street ; Captain C. R. Moorsom,
le chair.
dort of the directors stated that the half-yearly
meeting had been delayed beyond the usual period, in
the expectation that the directors would have been en-
abled to announce that the line had been partially
opened for traffic ; but though that result, so anxiously
sought, had not yet been attained, the directors had the
great satisfaction to inform the meeting that the Conway
Tube, to which the delay was referable, was, on the 6th
inst., safely floated between the piers, upon which it has
to be raised, and all that now rt mained to be
done was of an ordinary mechanical character ;
and they were fully assured by the engineer
that within a merit!), at the utmost, from this
time, the tube would be completely fixed in its place,
and the trains enabled to pass through it. The directors
had to furnish the meeting with the gratifying intelli-
gence, that the bridge had already been subjected to a
tf st, greatly exceeninz any t hat rc could ever be put to
in its ordinary use. The tube, after having been sus-
pended upon temporary piers 400 feet apart, which was
the lull span of the bridtze, Has loaded wi.ll a w, ight of
300 tons, aht n the result was in every way most satis-
factory, and realised most fully the expectations that
had been firmed of it by its designer. With the lead
of three hundred tons, the tit flection was only three
inches, or en inch to each one hundred tons; and from
that deflection it completely recovered itself upon the
weight being removed, after having remained therein
for three entire days. The requisite arrangements for
the opening of the line had recently been occupying the
constant attention of the directors; they were now
completed, and aided by the co-opt ration of the
London and North-Western Company, they trusted
that they had succeeded in providing an efficient
staff; and while they proposed to establish such rates
of fares and accommodation to the public as would
give full encouragement to the development of the
traffic, they had kept in view a due regard to
economy in the management. By the Ist of May the
line through Anglesea might also be made ready for
traffic, so as to furnish railway communication for the
entire distance to Holyhead, with the exception of the
passage across the Menai Straits; and they had so ap-
prised the Postmaster-General, and expressed their
willingness to undertake that this extension of railway
accommodation should be completed by that time,
provided the company were allowed an adequate remu-
neration for so doing ; and they had further offered
to undertake the whole of the mail service between
Chester and Holyhead, by covering the gap in the line
with proper horse conveyances, pending the junction
between the two sides of the Straits, provided the con-
tract entered into by the Treasury with the company be
at once acted upon. At present they were without a
definite reply to either of those propositions, the commu-
nications received only extending to a signification of
the intention to put on the mails to Bangor, when the
line should be opened so far. In the event of neither of
those offers being entertained they considered that
it would not be expedient to accelerate the
opening through Anglesea, until the whole lino from
Chester to Holyhead could be made continuous, by the
completion of the line across the Straits, or at least until
the most efficient steam-boat accommodation could be
afforded. It was comparatively of little importance to
the company whether the contract with the Treasury
should commence at once, or be deferred for a short
time, as its continuance was for a fixed term of
years, and therefore the earlier its commence-
ment the earlier would be its termination. The
extension of the line at Holyhead to the intended
New Refuge Harbour, it is considered unnecessary to
proceed with at present, or until the works of the new
harbour have made further progress. With respect to the
progress that had been made by her Majesty's Govern-
ment with the works of the old and new harbour at
Holyhead, it had been intimated to the directors
that the temporary accommodation making in the old
harbour was sufficiently advanced to enable the
Government new packets to use it—that nearly
all the land required for the new harbour
had been acquired—that a contract for a portion of the
works has been entered into, and that the railways for
conveying the stone from the quarries to the Great
Breakwaters and Packet Pier were in course of execu-
tion. In accordance with the resolution come to by the
shareholders at their last half yearly meeting, applica-
tion had again been made to Parliament for the necessary
powers to connect the steam-boat proprietorship with
that of the railway, so far as is necessary to
complete the communication between Holyhead and
Dublin. The shareholders would recollect the
peculiar circumstance under which the Bill was
withdrawn last session, after the unanimous
report of the Committee on the Bill, " That in the pre-
sent case it is essential for the interests of the public
that the powers sought should be conferred." The
eviamace laid before the Committee referred to, and upon
weigh that resolution was founded, had since been pub-
lished for the information of the Members of the House
of Commons, and your directors felt the greatest con-
fidence that their renewed application would be sue-
cesful. With that protection and security to the
public and the company, they have the most entire
confidence in the traffic of the line realising the
fullest expectation that has been formed of it. Two
months having elapsed from the date to which the
auditors examined the half-yearly accounts, the directors
have had a supplementary sheet prepared, in order to
lay before the meeting the state of the receipts and
expenditure to the end of last month. It would be seen
by those accounts, that the expenditure during the
six months ended 31st of December, was 635,065/.,
being at the rate of 105,8441. per month, and for
the eight months to the 29th of February, 806,8621.,
being at the rate of 100,858/. per month.
The confirmation of the shareholders was required to a
declaration made by the directors, of the forfeiture of
certain shares (61 in number), upon which the calls re-
main unpaid, consequent upon the holders of the scrip
having neither appeared at the time of completing the
registration in 1844, nor since that period. The direc-
tors further requested authority to sell or dispose of the
shares in such manner as they might deem advisable.
The time and attention of the engineer, Mr. Robert
Stephenson, had been so unremittingly devoted to the
floating and raising of the Conway tube, as to prevent
him furnishing his usual report.
From

a balance at the hankers and on loan of 38,2751. 4s. 4d.
The CHAIRMAN, in answer to a series of questions
put by a shareholder, said he did not think that the
expenses for direction and auditors, which amounted to
6,3001., were greater than the expenses incurred under
this head in other railway companies ; that so far as
the directors had been able to Judge, they considered
that the capital of the company would be adequate
to meet the contemplated outlay; that they could not pledge
themselves as to the precise period at which the works
would be completed, but would use every exertion to
expedite them with all possible dispatch. He also stated
that the shares were not more depreciated in value in
the market than the shares of similar undertakings,
and that the calls were remarkably well paid up consi-
dering the peculiarly of the times. When the Conway
tube was finished, the line would be completed to Bangor,
and the directors expected that it would be opened so tar
in about a month. The stations were all ready,
and they could be made tenantable and fit for use in
a week's time.
A SHAREHOLDER wished to know what the arrange-
ment was that had been made will] the London and
North-Western Company, as it had been stated that it
would be prejudicial to the interests of the proprietors
of this company?

The report was then received and adopted.
A resolution was then passed, authorising the direc-
tors to dispose of the forfeited shares in such manner as
they might consider advisable.
The meeting was afterwards made special, and the
directors were instructed to proceed with the Bill now
before Parliament, to enable the company to raise an
additional capital of 250,0001. for the purchase of steam-
boats, &c.
A vote of thanks was then passed to the Chairman
and directors, and the meeting separated.

THE LATE MURDER IN ST.
JAMES'S PARK.
THE CASE OF ANNETTE MEYERS.
Last evening it public meeting was held at the Lon-
don Tavern, to take into consideration the case of
Annette Meyers, at present under sentence of death for
the murder of Henry Ducker, in St. James's Park.
The largo room of the London Tavern was densely
crowded.
J. Bright, Esq., M.P., presided, and was supperted by
George Thompson, Esq., M.P. ; Alderman Sidney,
M.P. ; the Rev. 1)r. Mortimer, Head Master of the
City of London School ; the Rev. Thomas Binney ;
Charles Gilpin, Esq. ; John Scoble, Esq. ; J. Macrae,
Esq., barrister•at-law ; and other gentlemen of influ-
ence in the City.
The Rev. Dr. MORTIMER proposed the adoption of a
petition to her Majesty, praying for the exercise of royal
clemency in the case of the unfortunate woman, and
while they (the petitioners) did not excuse the crime,
directed her Majesty's attention to the extraordinary
provocations she had received. Dr. Mortimer stated
that the late mistress of Annette Meyers had called
upon him that morning, and had spoken in the highest-
terms of the convicted woman, and assuring him that
she had prepared a petition to her Majesty, to be signed
by her immediate friends.
The Rev, T. BINNEY seconded the motion.
Mr. BENNETT said he had been on the jury who had
tried Annette Meyers, and he begged to say that the
only delay which had occurred on the part of the jury
was in consequence of the difficulty they found in using
language strong enough to convey their sense of the ne-
cessity of a recommendation to mercy.
The petition was then adopted.
Mr. C. GILPIN remarked that he had inquired into
the subject of Annette Meyers's parentage, and he found
that she was the daughter of a gentleman standing high
in society, and that she ought to have been brought up
as that gentleman's child. He proceeded to advocate the
total abolition of the punishment of death, on many
grounds, the principal being that innocent persons not
unfrequently suffered. In proof of this assertion he
instanced a large number of most interesting cases, and
concluded by proposing a resolution based upon the re-
marks he had made.
GEORGE THOMPSON, Esq., M.P., seconded the reso-
lution.
The resolution having been adopted, several other
gentlemen addressed the meeting, aid the petitions
which had been agreed to were numerously signed.
The usual compliment to the Chairman closed the pro-
ceedings.

fourteen )ears.
Sir PETER LAURIE said the practice of non-transpor-
tation of delinquents had led to much evil to the public.
The tact was that the convict prisons were made so com-
fortable by the humane excesses of some people, that the
lazy and base availed themselves of the facilities which
shop-windows presented, to aid them in getting into
prisons, where they could maintain comfortable quarters
for the year.—(Hear, hear.) He recommended to the
Court the perusal of the report on Scotch gaols, by
Captain Kincaid, their late able and excellent Governor
of Bridewell Hospital, in every word of which Sir George
Grey concurred.
Alderman SIDNEY said the City was completely. over-
run with the vagrants who indulged themselves in the
mischief described, and that if Government did not inter-
fere, the unions would soon be crowded to suffocation
with vagrants, 30,000 of whom daily wandered over the
metropolis. lie recommended the application of the
machine invented by the keeper of one of our great
prisons as calculated, by its power of compelling labour
to those ordered to be attached to it, to prevent persons
from considering the prisons to be asylums.
Alderman lieneuao.ruex suggested the propriety of
conferring with the Secretary of State upon the subject
of the introduction of clause to the effect represented,
and another to divert the expense of sending paupers
to their places of settlement from the City of London
unions, in which the expenditure from pauperism was
becoming quite intolerable.
Alderman SALOMONS said he felt bound, as a guardian
of one of the country unions, to contradict a report
which had been circulatzd, to the effect that it was the
practice of remote parishes to send their poor to London.
Whatever might be done in the neighbouring unions, he
could certainly say that those at a distance never con-
templated anything of the kind. It was a serious evil
that the expense of supporting vagrants from all parts
should fall upon the City, and until that evil was grap •
pled with it would be useless to expect much improve-
ment in the vagrant population.
The suggestion of Aldermen Wilson and Farebrother
was then formed into a motion and agreed to.

Ellis occupied the chair. After some remarks from the
chairman, Mr. Blewitt, the secretary, read the report,
which stated that the sum of 1,2301. had been distri-

35,0601. granted for the relief of distressed authors,
their widows, and children, from the formation of the
society, in 1790. The funds were in a satisfactory state.
The report having been agreed to, the Marquis of Lans-
downe was unanimously re-elected President, and the
Archbishop of Dublin, the Earls of Arundel and Surrey,
Ripon, and Ellesmere were chosen as Vice-President!,
as were Lords John Russell, Brougham, and Stanley, Sir
Robert Peel, Sir Robert Inglis, and other noblemen and
gentlemen. The committee and Council were also re-
elected, and various alterations in the bye-laws were
adopted, subject to approval at a future general meeting.
It was announced that his Grace the Duke of Northum-
berland had kindly consented to preside at the annual
banquet in aid of the funds, which will take place in a
short time.
MURDER.—Shortly after dusk, on Friday evening,
it was reported at the police-station, Anglesea bridge,
that a woman was lying m a state of intoxication at the
adjacent place known as the Monorea Marsh. On the
police poceeding .to the spot indicated, it was found the
woman was not intoxicated, but dead, and covered with
blood, flowing from a wound in her neck. It was the
form of a deep stab; and the woman appeared to have
been slaughtered in the same manner as a sheep. SE*
was immediately removed to the South Infirmary, but
life had been already quite extinct. On the following
say a pocket was discovered at the place, which seemed
to have been cut from her gown, and also a knife, appa-
rently of foreign manufacture. As yet no information
has been obtained of the name of the victim, or the cause
of the murder, and but slight clue to the discovery
of the murderer. About the time the murder was
believed to be committed, a woman of her description
was seen passing along Warren's-place with a man, both
in a state of intoxication. The unfortunate woman

Alderman FIRMBROTHER, in the absence of Alderman
Challis. presented a petition, signed by several priso-
ners confined for various offences in Giltepur.street
Compter, applying to the Court for an increased al-
lowance of meat. The petition was drawn up by a
fellow who had been frequently brought before the Ma-
gistrates of London upon charges of bilking taverns and
public-houses, and was signed by the most profligate and
abandoned wretches in the gaol. He (Mr. Alderman
Farebrother) had nothing to say, but that, as the Se-
cretary of State thought the dietary adequate, no alte-
ration should take place.—(Hear, hear.)
Sir PETER LAURIE hoped never to see the day when
the honest industrious man was worse supplied with
food than thieves and knaves were supplied in prison.
Alderman FARERROTHER said, that unfortunately the
revolting sight was seen every day, The prisons were
overflowing, because the poor man was neglected, and
the thief received protection, sympathy, and commise-
ration.
Alderman SALOMONS said it would be more advisable
to see that the unions were comfortable, than to condemn
the prisons for being too comfortable.—(Gear, hear.)
The petition was referred to a Committee.
