POLICE INTELLIGENCE
MANSION--B OUSE.
3IPORTANT DECISION WITH RESPECT TO STEAM
VESSELS.—On Saturday, Captain Rose, commanding one
of the Greenwich steam vessels, was summoned before
the Lord Mayor for having acted on board without
having a license from the Watermen's and Lightermen's
Company. The question comprehended the important
one of overcrowding steam vessels to the great danger of
the lives bf the people, and the interest excited was pro-
portionably great.
Mr. Newbon, the solicitor to the Watermen's Steam-
boat Company, attended for the defendant.
Mr. George E. Nias, Gracechurch-street, printer,
stated that on Monday last he went on board the Prince
of Wales steamer at London-bridge, and observed that
they had not got the number of passengers which the
vessel was authorised to carry painted on the boat, in
conformity, to the rules and regulations passed some
time ago by the Court of Aldermen. He paid fourpence
for his passage to Greenwich, and he observed the de-
fendant acting as captain while he was on board. The
trip the vessel took was from Hungerford-market to
Greenwich. Witness inquired at the Watermen's and
Lightermen's Hall and found that the captain was not
licensed.
The witness, upon cross-examination by Mr. New-
bun, said the boat was not overloaded on the occasion,
but his determination to proceed had arisen from the fact
that a short time ago he had been on board a steamer
which was most dangerously crowded, and that not
having had evidence enough to prove his case against
that vessel, he had resolved, in order to prevent future
(;,,nger to the public, to prosecute the very first vessel
which he should find acting in opposition to the rules
and rt; gulations ; and the vessel named in the summons
was the first. He took up the case upon purely public
grounds,
amd would be regulated as to his future opera-
tions by eL"cumstances.
stated that Captain Rose was not li-
Mr. Bang -an, clerk of the Watermen's and Lighter-
men's Compaciy,
censed to use a Steam-boat in the river for the purpose
of conveying pa-Vengers% The captain was a freeman
of the Company ?y servitude, and had been made free
on the 11 th of De,lembF, 1834.
In answer to a
pcstion from Mr. Newbon, Mr. Good-
man (the chief cleric)
stated that the date of the bye-
laws passed by the, court of Aldermen was Sept. 29,
1845, and the date of the settlement of them by the
judge was Dec. 22, 1845.
Mr. Bangan, in cross-examination, said that no licence
had been granted to any captain since the passing of the
rules aid regulations, neither had any been applied for,
neither had the Court of Watermen taken any steps to
carry out the rules and regulations.
The above was the case for the prosecution.
Mr. Newbon said he at once admitted that the defend-
ant was not licensed under the regulation alluded to,
but he submitted that laws, in order to be efficacious,
ought to be general, to cause a beneficial operation ;
and in the present case there had been one vessel, and
that belonging to a small and newly-established com-
pany, marked out and selected for prosecution, at the
same time that it -was well known that long-established
companies were constantly acting in opposition to the
arrangements made by the Court of Aldermen.
Mr. Nias (the prosecutor) declared that he knew
calamities steam-boat
w h
ieh belonged.every
nothing whatever about the circumstances of the corn-
onheliv: who objectlla
pwaa'sytoto preventwhich
theee
any feeling and thought anticipated from the overcrowd_
ing of steam-vessels.
Arr. Newbon said he had no reason to doubt that Mr.
Nias was actuated by the best feelings; but it was.
really too bad that all the other vessels should be al-
lowed to escape, and one which was, perhaps, the best
regulated on the Thames, should be shot at.
The LORD MAYOR said it was his duty to listen to
any charge brought under the Act, and that if Mr. New-
bun chose to bring charges for similar offences against
other steamers, his complaint should be attended to with
equal alacrity.

Mr. Newbon said the fact was, this Act and the laws
and regulations were considered to be a mere dead letter.
They were completely inoperative, How was it possible
that the captain of a steam vessel could prevent the
public from rushing into his vessel? When the Black-
wall railroad brought down 500 or 600 passengers, who
was to prevent them from rushing on board the steamers
in waiting? If the City would be so good as to supply
the vessels with policemen to prevent the overcrowding,
the thing might be manageable, but under existing cir-
cumstances it was altogether impracticable. He was
aware that some remedy was necessary, but to attack a
new company for the purpose of trying an experiment
was quite unfair and ungenerous.
The LORD MAYOR intimated that the case was
proved.
Mr. Newbon said the company had no alternative but
an appeal. The case must be laid before the Court of
Queen's Bench.
The LORD MAYOR—I consider the case established,
and I shall thank you, or any other gentleman, to supply
me with similar cases; and you may depend upon it I
shall convict upon every one which is so well proved.
The defendant was then fined in the penalty of 403.,
or seven days' imprisonment in the House of Correction.
The defendant appealed against the conviction at once,
and entered into bail accordingly.
DISGUSTING CASE.—A man, named Michael Adams,
who stated that he was a printer, was charged with
having exposed himself before three very youthful
females on Saturday morning. Three distinct cases
were proved, and the defendant said he had been out
drinking the whole of the night before, and knew no-
thing. about the matter. He argued, too, that the chil-
dren had followed him, and not he the children, and that
of course, if anybody appeared to be culpable, he was
not the person.
The Lon]) MAYOR sentenced the defendant to be im-
prisoned in the House of Correction for fourteen days.

WESTMINSTER.
A case of a very extraordinary character was brought
under tho cognizance of the magistrate on Thursday and
Saturday. The public may be aware that of late a
number of private soldiers have, in consequence of a
recently-discovered defect in their enlistment—that, we
believe, of being enlisted in one county, and attested in
another—claimed their discharge, and many in the
Guards have been within the last few days re-enlisted.
On Wednesday last, Francis Bowen, a private of the
Grenadier Guards, received the enlisting money (a
shilling), and on the following day was brought by the
sergeant major to this Court, and was attested ; but at
the time of his attestation he expressed his dissent whilst
Wore the magistrate, and tendered the " smart," as it

is termed, claiming his right to be discharged. The
sergeant-major objected to take the smart, but the
recruit continued to dissent under the 37th clause of the
Mutiny Act.
The sergeant-major objected to take the money ten-
dered as above, as it was one of the regulations of the
military that, having government property in his posses-
sion (firelock, belt, &c.), it should be delivered up at the
barracks to the proper authorities. After some conver-
sation it was arranged that, as Good Friday is a dies *on,
the recruit should come before the magistrate on Saturday
without prejudice to his right as regarded time topay the
"smart." The soldier applied for the sergeant-major
on that morning for, him to attend with him before the
magistrate, but the sergeant-major said he could not
come at all without an order from the Commander-in-
Chief, and the soldier or recruit attended at half•past
one alone, and asked his discharge. Mr. Burrell re
commended that he should wait till two o'clock, at which
hour a sergeant and an escort made their appearance,
and the former said that he had received orders from the
commanding officer to take the man back to barracks,
his first enlistment being good.
Mr. BURRELL said that he had nothing whatever to
do with the first enlistment. The recruit had done all
that was required under the Mutiny Act, if prepared to
pay the money claimed (smart and keep).
The recruit, who was in the uniform of the regiment,
produced the money. and again claimed his discharge,
The sergeant ref-used to take the money. Ills instruc-
tions only were to take the man to barracks.
The recruit having paid 1/. 4s. into the hands of Mr.
Taylor, the chief clerk, as smart and charges since,
Air. BualtELL discharged him from the second enlist-
ment, but he was immediately taken into custody by the
escort.

At the close of the court, the soldier or recruit's wife
complained that her husband was confined in barracks,
and that they would not allow her to see him.
Mr. BURRELL said he could not assist her in any way.
He had no power to interfere.
THAMES. _ _

William Frazer, a Man of rather respectable appear-
ance, was charged with fraudulently obtaining a quan-
tity of cutlery, the property of Messrs. Hems and Son,
cutlers, 37, High-street, Whitechapel.
According to the evidence of Mr. William Hems, and
his shopman, Henry Gough, the prisoner went about
half-past seven o'clock on Wednesday evening, and
stated that he wanted some articles of cutlery, as he
had taken the Nag's Head public-house, in Hounsditch,
and desired to see some knives and forks, some to be used
in the taproom, and others of a superior quality for the
parlour. The purchase was made to the amount of
3/. lOs., and the prisoner desired that they should
be sent with a bill to the Nag's Head, when the
amount would be immediately paid. Gough accordingly
took the articles to the Nag's Head, and inquired for the
prisoner, who came from the parlour, without his hat,
with the perfect air and manner of one who was master
of the house. He invited Gough into he parlour, and
having given him a glass of ale, said, "I suppose Mr.
Hems would have no objection to take one pound in
copper, which was agreed to, and the prisoner went out
as if to get the money, taking the articles with him. It
is needless to say that the prisoner, who had nothing to
do with the Nag's Head, disappeared with the property.
He was subsequently traced, by a police-constable to a
house in White Lion-street, and taken into custody, but
no portion of the property could be discovered.
He was fully committed for trial.

EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF
SUICIDE.
(From the Dublin Evening Post of Thursday).
Last night, at nine o'clock, James Kirwan, Esq., City
Coroner, held an inquest at Abbott's Hottl, Prince's-
street, on view of the body of Robert Heinekey, Esq.,
proprietor to the Bilton Hotel, Sackville-street, who
came by his death by taking a large dose of laudanum.
Isaac Newton, the porter in Abbott's Hotel, stated
that deceased came to the house after six o'clock in the
morning and engaged a room, and told witness to bring
him up hot water ; he asked for a quiet room ; brought
up the water, and deceased locked the door, telling wit-
ness not to call or disturb him.
Mathew Doyle, head-waiter in the hotel, stated that
he knocked at the door between three and four o'clock,
and heard the deceased snore deeply; the door was
locked inside, and witness, with a sergeant of police,
and Mr. Thomas, went into the room ; went to the bed,
and saw deceased very pale, and his chest was heaving
or drawing very heavy ; he was in a dead slumber, not
able to speak ; saw three bottles, which had " laudanum
poison" marked on them ; there was a letter directed
to Mr. Bunn, and also some papers relative to a will got
on the table with a watch and 1 ls.; Mr. Abbott came
up at once and sent for a doctor. Here the folloving
letter directed t,o,

Dublin, April 5, 1846.
"Dear Friend,—Many, many thanks for all your
kindness. Forgive your poor friend--but life has be-
come insupportable, and 'ere you view this his trouble
and anxiety will be at an end. Let me be interred at
Howth as quietly as possible. Continue your kind
friendship to my poor wife. I see no prospect of being
anything but a trouble to her, and after a time I hope
my loss will be her gain; she is harassed in mind and
body. Matters cannot !,;o on as they are, and it is
better I should be out of the way as I am only a con-
tinued source of anxiety and trouble to all in connexion
with me. My unfortunate constitution of mind is the
only cause, but this I cannot overcome, and though it
must be felt severely at first I shall soon be forgotten;
a few short years will, sir even months, must end my
miserable life or place me in a lunatic asylum, a still
greater burden to my family. Pity and forgive your
poor weak-minded friend, and the best and last good
wishes of your unfortunate friend are for your happiness
and prosperity. " R. HEINEKEY.
" Who can administer to a mind diseased ?' I have
struggled in vain, and at snot endure a lingering death.
" See Gresham as soon: as you view this."
The Coroner read a letter directed to himself from
deceased, as follows :

" Sir—This is probabiy the first note yon ever re-
ceived from one on whose body you were likely to hold
an inquest on. My object; in addressing you is, to save
you and the jury all unnecessary trouble. The cause of

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.
SPECULATION IN 1845.

A curious document came to light on Saturday in the
shape of a report from the Registrar-General of Joint-
stock Companies, to the Privy Council for Trade for
1845. It forms a gigantic index of upwards of fifty fo-
lios to the doings in railway speculation for the past
year, and can be likened, in its length and curious dis-
closures, to nothing else but the ramifications of a
Welsh pedigree or Homer's catalogue of ships. An in-
teresting biography or book upon bubbles might be
wrought out of it in the hands of a judicious selector. It
is, moreover, a mirror of that memorable period of na-
tional hallucination when every bubble was invested
with a value, as the true offspring of the joint-stock
genius of England, by the then reigning epidemic of
speculative cupidity and caprice. In the return every
scheme is impaled as nicely as ephemera in the folios
of a naturalist. Each scheme is accurately named and
numbered, so that all whom it concerns may take notice
and see how the multiplied schemes that came out
starred with premiums have given up the ghost of a
moonshine existence, and found a place in the catalogue
of all defunct things. This list is an eloquent doge of
the wild spirit of project and speculation that charac-
terised the past, and will be highly useful to the pos-
terity of speculators and projectors in all time to come.
The report is but a record of the establishment of the
evil of a plethoric speculation, without at all unveiling
the disastrous and uncalculating consequences that fol-
lowed the most puissant period of speculation in the
world's history; consequences that can only be ade-
quately arrived at by diving into the depths of woe and
Whitecross-street, which is said to be half peopled
with speculators and projectors, who had a chief
hand in the late railway game of hazard. The
list consists of fifty-three pages, and contains
the titles and specifications of 1,520 schemes, the off-
spring of 1845, the majority being for railways, water-
companies, banks, insurances, mines, and an immensity
of other joint-stock corporation. The year opened with
a mere handful, but as the days rolled on and the fever
became fiercer, they doubled, trebled, and quadrupled
in quantity, until, in September, October, and Novem-
ber, they came thickly thundering on, at the rate of
from 100 to 300 and 500 a month, and an average in
September—the most prolific of months—of from 16 to
46 each day, or 457 in the month, as will be seen by
the following analysis of the return. In December,
when the panic rang the tocsin of alarm, and the excite-
ment was gradually subsiding, the climacteric was 31.

BRIGHTON, LEWES, AND lIASTINGS.—SUBSIDENCE
OF THE PRESTON VIADUCT.—This viaduct consists of
27 arches, and it crosses the turnpike. road from London
to Brighton, near the Brighton terminus. It has been
finished several weeks, and the principal portion of the
wooden centres supporting the arches taken away. On
Saturday morning the :men engaged in ballasting the
line over the viaduct discovered symptoms of the middle
arch, which crosses the turnpike-road, having given way.
Workmen were immediately employed in placing timber
to support the arch. It was found to have sunk a foot
or eighteen inches, and will have to be taken down and
rebuilt. This arch was of wider span than the others,
and was the only elliptic arch in the viaduct. Some
persons ascribe its subsidence to its being built in that
form, but it is more probably owing to the continued
wet weather, as another of the arches has since been
found to be cracked. They will have both to be taken
down and rebuilt. The line was to have been opened
in May, but in cousequence of this untoward event the
opening must be deferred probably for six weeks or two
months. Thousands of persons visited the spot yester-
day, it being within a mile of Brighton.
WINDINGS UP.—The shareholders in the following
companies have called meetings, to be held during the
current week, to consider the propriety of forthwith
winding up their affairs :—Taw Vale Extension ; Lan-
cashire, Yorkshire, and North-Eastern; Leeds and York;
Wrexham, Nantwich, and Crewe Junction ; Boston,
Newark, and Sheffield ; London, Bristol, and South
Wales Direct ; East Coast ; Central Devon ; London,
Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderminster ; Wexford,
Waterford, and Valentia ; North Staffordshire; Chester
and Manchester Direct ; Direct Birmingham and Lei-
cester ; Boston, Stamford, and Birmingham ; Dublin,
Belfast, and Coleraine ; British and Irish Union (Dum-
fries to Portpatrick).
From our official returns (says the Railway Chronicle)
it appears that the amount of traffic for the last week, on
nearly 1,800 miles of railway, was 124,0731., thus ac-
counted for :--59,5161. for the conveyance of passengers
only ; 33,2611. for the carriage of goods ; and a re-
mainder of 31,2961. for passengers and goods together,
not respectively apportioned; being an increase over the
corresponding week of last year of 24,3571. (To ren-
der this comparison fair, the opening of new lines should
be credited in the calculation as included.)
VALE OF NEATH.—A meeting of the inhabitants of
Aberdare was held at the Town-hall last week, to peti-
tion Parliament in favour of the immediate
passing of the
Vale of Neath Railway Bill. A resolution was adopted
to the effect that the proposed line would prove of incal-
culable benefit to Aberdare and its neighbourhood, from
the connexion it would establish between it and Romer hyer

DISSOLUTION of RAILWAY COM-
PANIES.
The following is the official letter from the Board of
Trade, detailing the previsions of the intended measure
on the subject of the voluntary dissolution of projected
railway companies:—
" Office of Committee of Privy Council for Trade,
" Whitehall, 9th
rdApril 1846.
"Sir,--I am directed by the Los of, the Committee
of Privy Council for Trade to communicate to you the
following information, with a view to your making it
known with the least possible delay to those provision-
ally registered railway companies to which it relates.
"It is the intention of her Majesty's Government im-
mediately after Easter to propose to Parliament a Bill
to enable any railway company, which at the time of
the passing of the Bill shall not have obtained an Act of
Parliament, to dissolve itself.
"By the Bill it is intended to provide for the calling
of a meeting of the shareholders either by the managing
body, or by a given number of shareholders, at which
meeting it is intended that the holders of a majority of
the shares in the company, or the holders of three-tilths
of the shares belonging to those present or represented
by proxy at the meeting, shall have the power to deter-
mine upon the dissolution of the company.
"Due provision will be made for a sufficient public
notice being given of the time and place of meeting, and
of the mode in which absent shareholders are to be re-
presented by proxy.
" Upon the dissolution being carried at the meeting,
the property of the company is to become vested forth-
with in certain persons to be appointed for the purpose
of winding up the concern, and, after discharging the
liabilities, for distributing the surplus.

" The actual holders of scrip are to be taken as shill'
holders entitled by themselves, or their proxies,

tend the meeting.—l have the honour to be, Sir,

ICHEST COPPER MINES IN THE WORLD.--..%-i.-

And see how well they'll act by you.

The highest -value they partake ;
And when 3 our largest purchase closes,
You'll net find much expense with MOSES.
A WORD FOE THE LEG.
%the leg's a most important limb,
Which folks should always keep in trim.
MOSES and SON may safely beg
The patronage of ev'ry leg.

In cloth, and cut, and all the rest,
These trowsers are " the 'very best."

REVIEWS OF THE WORK.

"The anther of this singular and talented work is a legally qnall-
fled medical man, who has evidently had considerable experience in
the treatment of the various disorders arising from the follies and
frailties of early indiscretion. The engravings are an invaluable ad-
dition, by demonstrating the consequences of excesses, which must
act as a salutary warning to youth and maturity, and by its perusal
many questions may be satisfactorily replied to, that admit of no ap-
peal, even to the most confidential friend."—Era.

ilammation of the foot increasing. I took three of your Pills, and
within two hours I found tha pain to entirely cease. I afterwards
took two Pills at a dose twice in the day, and I am, thank God, this
morning able to walk without the slightest inconvenience. I found in
a previous very severe attack very great relief; I had the pains in
my knees and thighs so very severe at that time, I thought I must
have died, and that it must have gone into my stomach. At that
time I had resort to your Pills, and they relieved me—within two
hours
I was quite easy. The use of these Pills ought, really, to be
known all over the world. I have a brother, a young man, that
suffers horribly with it, and his greatest relief and preventive has
been your Pills. Make what use you please of my report.—Yours
truly and respectfully, WILLIAM COURTNEY.
Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age, none
have contributed so much to the comfort and ease of the community,
nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as the impor-
tant discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS,
the eftleacy of which has been tested by the approval and mom-
raendation of
many of the greatest men of our day. They are effec-
tive for gout and rheumatism, in all its various forme, including
sciatica, lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently treated as
tooth-ache, Sce. They require neither confinement nor attention of
any kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach,
brain, or other vitalpart.
