A committee of the Treasury was, it appears, held
at the Bank yesterday morning, at which it was settled
that the period of accommodation by loans shall be extended
to the 9tia of April, a period of seven weeks. This is a well-
timed and judicious measure; and it will unquestionably en-
oourage the private bankers to deal more liberally with their
customers. In all descriptions of trade, however, prudence
will prescribe-the drawing bills for some time to come at no
longer dates than can possibly be avoided. At the period to
which Bank loans are now extended the dividends will be in
course of payment, and assist, as far as they go, in restoring
the equilibrium to the money-market.
DEATH OF GENERAL SIR WILLIAM H. CLINTON,
G.C.8., LIEUT.-GOVERNOR OP CHELSEA HOSPITAL —We
have to record the decease of this gallant officer, one of the
oldest, as well as one of the most distinguished generals of
the British army. The melancholy event took place on Sun-
day morning, at the family seat near Royston, Herts. Sir
William was the son of Sir Henry Clinton, G.C.8., -Com-
mander-in-Chief of the land forces in America against Wash-
ington and the other Republican commanders. lie married,
in 1797, the daughter of the Ist Earl of Sheffield, by whom
he leaves a large family, including one son, who is Lieute-
nant-Colonel in the Grenadier Guards. The deceased officer

entered the army in 1784, and was present at twelve sieges
and encounters. In 1842 he was presented to the office of
Lieutenant-Governor of Chelsea Hospital (salary 4001. per
annum), now at the disposal of the Government. In 1826
Sir William was returned as representative for the borough.of
Newark, by his kinsman the Duke of Newcastle, 'and con-
tinued in possession of the seat till 1829. It should be added
that the late Duke of York was for many years on terms of
intimacy with Sir William, who had the honour of being one
of the aides-de-camp to his Royal Highness.
MURDERS AND SUICIDE AT CAMBERWELL.—Yester-
day an inquiry took place before Mr. W. Carter, at the
Bricklayers' Arms Tavern, Southampton-street, Camberwell,
as to the deaths of Mr. P. Horean, and 11. and W. Horeau,
his sons, murdered by him on Monday morning, previous to
his own suicide. The three bodies were lying side by side,
on a mattress in the room where the dreadful acts were com-
mitted. The father and eldest son presented a ghastly spec-
tacle,from the tremendous wounds on the throats, while the
infant seemed but in a sleep. Mrs. W. A. C. Horeau, the
widow, produced the following letter which she found in her
husband's pocket-book after his death. It was addressed
"Mrs. Smith, 2, Duke's-court, Bow-street, London," but
had no date :—" My dear Eliza—l gratefully thank you for
what you have done for me and my poor family. When my little
ones are grown up, explain to them that the sight of their
suffering was too much for me. Perhaps when yon go the
long journey whence no traveller returns, my family may do
something for them, as they have done for poor Jules (another
son who went abroad), who perhaps is no more alive by this
time. As for you, my good girl, prosper in life as you de-
serve, is the most earnest wish of Pim." After the produc-
tion of some further evidence, the jury returned the following
verdict :—" We find a verdict of wilful murder againstPhilaret
Horeau, as regards the death of Helvetius and Wm. Horeau,
and we find that the said Philaret Horeau destroyed himself
while in a state of temporary insanity, produced by extreme
privation and want." The inquiry lasted nearly six hours.,
and the room was much crowded.

CASE OF' STABBING AT CRIPPLEGATE.—This case of
brutality was yesterday morning examined at Guildhall, be-
fore Aldermen Farebrother and Hunter. The culprit, a man
named Feacey, about 50 years of age, was charged with
running a carving knife into the left side of a man named
Martin, between the 11th and 12th ribs, penetrating to the
lower part of the thorax, within the cavity of the chest.
According to the evidence of Susannah Emberse, the quarrel
originated in jealousy. Martin was subsequently examined,
though in a very precarious state. The prisoner was con-
veyed in a cab to the Compter, to await the fate of Martin.
