DEATH from-MORPHIA.—The following in-
quest appeared in the Morning Post of Friday, the 23d
instant:—" A Child Poisoned by Morphia.—An inquest was held on
Wednesday, by Mr. Mills, at Chelsea, on the body r,f a child named
Harriet Watson, nine months old, who had died in consequence of
its mother having Inadvertently given It a part of a pill composed of
morphia,- for the purpose of lulling it to sleep. A verdict stating the
fact was delivered, and the mother of the child was, by direction of
the jury, severely admonished by the coroner." We need not inform
the reader that, had the deadly poison been given by the doctor,
instead of the mother, we should, as usual, never have heard one
word about the death. Good God ! half a pill to be so poisonous and
deadly. This is what the doctors call " medicine ! !!" The Lord save
us from such medicine ! - Doctors may ridicule the idea of persons
having taken five, ten, twenty, and even fifty of Morrison's Pills at
a dose (which, at all events, is an incontrovertible proof of their in-
nocence and safety), but it is far better than dealing In such
deadly poisons as morphia, and the catalogue of other poisons
used by doctors • " medicinally !! ! Hygeists, thank God, have
to reproach their consciences w!th—is it the same with
Morphia, the public should know, is a deadly preparation
We say again that the world is beginning to understand
why doctors give and hold out poisons " medicinally.'.—British Col-
lege of Health, New-road, London, Oct. 24, 1846.

ASTLEY'S AMPHITHEATRE.—We understand that
Mr. Batty has made another accession to his already
talented and numerous Company in the persons of
Monsieur and Madame Steinbreecht, and four splendidly
trained horses from Berlin, which are said to excel
any-
thing ever seen in the school of the menage. The gen-
tleman is Stalmiester (or Master of the Horse) to his
Majesty the King of Prussia, and, with his horses and
attendants, arrived in London, from Berlin by way of
Hamburgh and Hull, on Saturday last, and will appear,
forthwith, at the Amphitheatre. Mr. Batty has also,
since the arrival of the camels, made another addition
to his stud, having purchased two splendid zebras, which
will be introduCed in the forthcoming spectacle, afford-
kg another proof of the tact and enterprise which has
characterised his proceedings through life.
FRIGHTFUL DEATHS FROM STARVATION.--011 Sa-
turday two inquests were held by Mr. Baker respecting
the circumstances attending the deaths of two persons,
both of whom died from starvation. The first proceed-
ings commenced at the White Lion, Mile-end Old-town,
on the body of Mary Miles, aged seventy-three. The
evidence showed that the only support of the deceased
and her husband was one shilling and a loaf weekly,
from the Whitechapel Union, and casual relief from
their neighbours. Through the dread of being separated,
they would not avail themselves of the offer to enter the
workhouse. Deceased was recently attacked with a
lingering illness, brought on by the want of necessary
food, of which she died on Thursday morning. The
apartment occupied by them gave every appearance of
the utmost destitution and want.—Verdict " Natural
death." The second inquest held by th© same Coroner,
was taken at the White Hart, Shadwell, on the body of
Charles Green, aged fifty-three. The daughter of the
deceased stated that her father being out of employment
upwards of nine months, he was supported by witness
and her mother, but was greatly in want of the neces-
saries of life. On Thursday he was seized with vomiting
blood, the parish surgeon was sent for, but he shortly
afterwards died. The jury recorded in this case a verdict
similar to the preceding.
DARING BURGLAR —On Sunday last, whilst the
family were at church, the house of the Rev. Joseph
Brown, in Hackney-terrace, was entered by some auda-
cious robber and stripped f all the plate, Mrs. Brown's
gold watch, &c., to the value of 1201. About half-past
four a man was seen to leave the house with a large
carpet-bag by the servant next door, who unfortunately
did not think of giving alarm. What adds to the vexa-
tion of the loss is that five of the articles of plate, and
those the most valuable, had been presented to him by
the inhabitants of the various parishes where he has
ministered.
