,LBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.)
Emily Gibson, a young woman of prepossessing ap-
pearance, was brought before Mr. Hardwick under the
following circumstances:—
. Police-constable A 46, said that last evening, about
six o'clock, he was on duty in Hyde-park, when he saw
the defendant sitting on one of the seats crying bitterly,
surrounded by a number of people. Witness went up to
her and asked her the reason of her crying in that
,manner. She replied that her parents had turned her
otit of doors. She was quite penniless, and had no
howe to go to, and if some one did not assist her she
must either commit suicide or go on the town. A lady
and ge:itleman at that moment came up, and gave
her some money and went away. Shortly afterwards a
gentleman passed by, and on looking at defendant told
witness that be had seen her in Regent's park the same
morning, where she told him the same tale, and that
be firmly believed her to be an impostor. Witness, in
consequence of that information, took her into custody,
and conveyed her to the station, where she was
searched, and two shillings found upon her. Witness
subsequently went to her parents, who werehghlyre-
speetable people, residing at Lisson-grove, and i
they both
denied the truth of her statement. They were in the
court now.
The defendant's mother then stepped forward, and
in tears informed the magistrate that the defendant
had a very comfortab!e home, and pursued the business
of a dress-maker. Latterly she had become acquainted
with a young man in the neighbourhood, who had no
doubt led her astray. She (defendant) left home on
Saturday evening last at eight o'clock, promising to re-
turn in an hour; she, however, did not return, and she
(witness) had no doubt that in consequence of her con-
duct she was afraid to come home. She would gladly
forgive all that had transpired, and would most willingly
take her home again.
In reply to Mr. Hardwick, defendant said she left
her home on Saturday last, in company with a young
wan, who took her to a house in Little Church-street,
Liason-grove, where she stayed till Monday morning.
He then left her, and she was in such distress of mind
that she was afraid to re turn home. She denied having
been itt Regent's Park 3 esterday morning, and implored
her mother to forgive her and receive her home again.
Mr. HARDWICK, in a very kind manner,. pointed out
to defendant the evil consequences that would follow if
she persisted iu pursuing such a line of conduct, which
was bringing ruin and destruction on herself, and dis-
grace to her family. She had made a bad return for the
kind manner in which they had always treated her, and
he sincerely hoped she would forsake such a loose kind
'of life before it brought her to utter ruin. He should
.:now hand her over to the care of her parents, and
trusted she would never act in such a foolish manner
again.
ri The defendant, who was in tears during the whole
; ;time, then left the court with her friends.

cleansing have been —adopted in St.- Martin's and the
neighbouring parishes by the National Philanthropic As-
sociation, in connexion with the Mount Saint Bernard
Hospice. The system adopted is to divide the parish
into districts, and to appoint one or more persons to
each, whose duty i t is to be constantly on their beats be-
tween seven o'clock in the morning and seven i❑ the
evening, thoroughly to cleanse the streets from all kinds
of mud, dust, and filth. These persons, who are selected
from the able-bodied poor in the workhouse, wear a
kind of uniform, consisting of a blouse and cord trow-
sers, with a black oiled hat, having the words " Street
Orderly, No. —," painted on it in white letters. They
receive 3s. per week each, and the whole of their cloth-
ing, board, and lodging, the latter at the Mount Saint
Bernard Hospice. It is gratifying to be able to add that
they have hitherto conducted themselves with great
diligence and proyriety, expressing themselves extremely
grateful for the work provided them ; and that the effect
of their labours has been greatly to improve the appear-
ance of the streets, and to add to the comfort of the in-

this company, the company have been unsuc-
cessful in the last two sessions of Parliament, or, at
least, this has been the principal cause of their want
of success. It has._ 1so prevented the company from
proceeding with tlffi formation of the main line of
railway, and has been a source of great loss and in-
jury to the interests of the company. The directors,
under all the circumstances, intimated to the law
agents of the College that, in consequence of the
failure of the College agreement, the company are
entirely relieved of any obligation that they may at
any time have been liable under that Act and agree-
ment. In consequence of the non-payment of the
second call made on the shareholders, except to a very
limited extent, the directors were compelled to nego-
tiate for a loan of 25,0001. This sum will enable the
directors in a great measure to discharge _thg pressing.
obligations of the company. The directors have' also
to state that several of them have interposed their per-
sonal security for payment of the interest on part of
the above loan.
The report was adopted ; and it was agreed to re-
scind the call of 2/. 10s. per share, and to make one of
5s. per share in lieu thereof.
Thanks being voted to the Chairman, the meeting
separated.

LORD JOHN RUSSELL.—On Thursday last, Lord
John Russell, in passing through Blairgowrie, from Bal-
moral to Dunkeld, was waited upon by the Bailie and
Council, for the purpose of presenting to him the fol-
lowing address, which he very condescendingly agreed
to accept :—" To the Right Hon. Lord John Russell,
First Lord of her Majesty's Treasury. My Lord,—We,
the Bailie and Council of the burgh of Blairgowrie, beg
respectfully in our own name, and in the name of the
community which we represent, to offer your Lordship
our congratulations on the occasion of your Lordship's

health. We also take this opportunity of testifying to
your Lordship the feeling of respect which we, in cora-
aeon with the people of Scotland at large, entertain for
your Lordship's character as a man and a statesman."
In reply, his Lordenip said he was taken by surprise, as
he did not anticipate anything of the kind ; that he was
truly gratified by the address and its tenour,; and that
he would endeavour that his conduct should
at all times
be such as to meet the approbation of the empire gene.

the operation of the new system, and on Monday twenty-
six men were employed, being about a fourth more than
were engaged last week.
THE METROPOLITAN SEWERS COMMISSION AND
THE METROPOLITAN SEWAGE MANURE COMPANY.—

We allude with unfeigned regret, but without at pre-
sent expressing uny opinion on the merits of the case,
to some recent' proceedings of the Metropolitan Com-
mission of Sewers. Our readers are probably aware
that for some time past negotiations have been going on
between that body and the Metropolitan Sewage Manure
Company. That company claims a right under its Acts
of Parliament to the waters of certain Sewers, which

BUSINESS TO BE ATTENDED TO.—Between the 1st
and 15th of the month the mayor and assessors in every
borough are to hold courts for revising the burgess lists.
On or before the 22d, the same lists being duly revised
and delived by the mayor to the town-clerk, are to be
by him kept, and copied into a book as the burgess-roll,
copies of which are to be printed for sale. In this month,
also, all courts for the revision of the county and borough
Parliamentary lists, not previously held between the
15th and 30th of September, are to be held by the re-
vising barristers. During this month, under the 83d
section of the Municipal Act, the borough justices are
to appoint as many of the inhabitants as they may see
fit as special constables.
THE SOUTH• WESTERN RAILWAY AND THE SURREY
AND SUSSEX ROADS TRUST.—Since the opening of the
eztension line of the South-Western Railway from Nine
Elos to the Waterloo-road, the trustees of the Surrey
and i$ussex roads have intimated that it will be neces-
sary to erect new toll-gates, the ordinary income having
been so greatly reduced by the railway, as to be quite
insufficient to the reparation of the public roads. This
announcement has created great dissatisfaction amongst
the owners and occupants of household property, not
only in all this part of the metropolis, hut in the various
suburban districts, which must be more or less affected
by the exaction of a fresh tollage. Several meetings
have already been held in Camberwell, Walworth, and
other places, for the purpose of resisting the threatened
Infliction of new tolls. The Road trustees assert, how-
ever, that they have no other alternative, whilst other
parties seem to be of opinion that the Railway Company
having monopolized so much of the traffic, should be
assessed in a proportionate degree for the maintenance
of the public thoroughfares. The railway directors,
naturally enough, demur to this proposition, the line
having been already subjected to a heavy charge in the
shape of highway rate. Should the road trustees put
np any fresh gates, the matter will be brought before
Parliament immediately on its re-assembling.
THE LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.—
The through traffic of the Peterborough branch of this
railway has been entirely stopped by the floods, which
we understand have carried away one of the timber
bridges.
SOUTHEASTERN RAILWAY.—Gross traffic receipts
for the week ending Sept. 30:—Passengers, first class,
11,859; second class, 32,917; third class, 34,673. Total,
79,449 passengers. Amount, 7,7431. 9s.; carrying ac-
count, 2,931/ 15s. 5d. Grand total, 10,675/ 4s. 5d.
ACCIDENT ON THE BRIGHTON RAILWAY.—About
one o'clock on Monday morning the body of a man was
discovered on the down line of this railway, in -the
Meratham tunnel, near Reigate. When discovered, the
body was frightfully mutilated, one leg and hand were
cut from the body, and the other foot and hand much
crushed. The remains of the unfortunate man, who is
supposed to be a pedlar, were removed to a public-house
at Red Hill to await the Coroner's inquest. A silver
watch was found on the person of the deceased, marked
" R. Watson, London, No. 5,157," the hands standing
at twenty minutes to twelve, at which hour it is sup-
posed he must have been run over by a train.
NOVEL USE OF CHLOROFORM.—Yesterday infor-
mation was received by the police, that a Mr. R. Nutley
had been plundered about nine o'clock the previous
evening of a silver watch and appendages and his purse,
containing 4/. in gold and 15s. in silver, by a female,
Who accosted him in the King's-road, St. Pancras, and

claim the commission is understood to resist. But the

company also clailn a distinct right, as freeholders on the
banks of the Kens ington Canal, to open a communication
with the waters o f that canal. This right they have pro-

ceeded to exercise, giving due notice to the Com‘mis•
sioners of their intention ; but the Commissioners, after

suffering the works to proceed nearly to a completion,
have forcibly re moved the communicating pipe and
made good the bank. They have also imposed a fine of
5001. upon the:company for executing the work without
their consent, which consent the company contends that
it is not bound to ask. A further fine of 501. has been
imposed on the contractor. This is, of course, but an
outline of one p;Art of the transactions which has taken
place between the commission and the company. Though
we pass no opinion at present on the merits of the ques-
tion at issue, we must express our sincere regret that the
Metropolitan Commissioners of Sewers should have
deemed such a strong course either necessary or expe-
dient. Unless the company have committed some graver
offence than %the mistaken assertion of a right, the
punishment certainly smacks of undue severity, if not of
tyranny. ForAhe sake of the cause which both parties
have at heart;•we trust that this untoward dispute may
be amicably arranged ; but in the meantime it is right
that both parties should feel that the eye of the public
is upon them.
MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE..-0n Wednesday after-
noon, as severt .1 women were engaged in some agricul-
tural operation s in a field at Barnton, some cattle which
were feeding near the place began to run at them, when
they precipitate ly retreated to the palling, and attempted
to climb over The women succeeded in making their
escape, with th e exception of an old woman, about 75
years of age, of the name of Agnes Gay or Meikle, a
widow, who was overtaken before she could effect her
escape, by a, tail% which tossed her into the air, and, on
her reaching the ground from the fall, again threw her
up with his 'horns, when a carter, named Alexander
Mitchell, boli ly came to the rescue of the unfortunate
woman, and . trove away the animal. She was imme-
diately convey ed to her house at Davidson's Mains, and

that she had at stained injuries of a very serious character.

ULSTER.
The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
on Thursday at Belfast; Mr. J. Goddard in the chair.
The report stated that 327,625 passengers were car-
ried on the line during the half-year ending 31st of
August, and the receipts were 15,7151.; for the
carriage of goods and parcels, 8,024/. ; total, 21,739/. ;
cost of working the line, 8,216/. ; leaving a balance of
12,523/.; for the payment of interest on loans, 4,7611.;
and for payment of a dividend, 7,761/. Of this sum
the directors recommended a dividend of 13s. per
share, and that the balance, 1,013/., be added
to the reserve fund. The directors regret
that the gross receipts do not equal those
of the corresponding perio1 of last year.
They had anticipated that the opening of the ex-
tended line to Armagh would have to a considerable
extent counterbalanced the falling off which had
shown itself last winter, in consequence of the gene-
ral depression ; but in this expectation they bad been
disappointed. The increase in the working expenses
over the corresponding period of last year, excluding
the item of rates and taxes, amounted only to 563/.,
notwithstanding the increase in the quantity of work
done, eleven miles having been added to the length of
the line. The expenditure on capital was drawing to
a conclusion; the accounts cannot, however, be closed
for some time longer, as a few matters remain to be
completed, in order to have the whole concern in effi-
cient working order.

The engineer's report stated that the whole of the
works on the line were substantially and well exe-
cuted; that the permanent way and working stock
were in excellent order.

ROYAL Mk LITARY ACADEMY.—We regret to state
that scarlet fe• ver has Woken out amongst the gentle-
men cadets itt: the Royal Military Academy at Wool-
wich, and that: one of their number, Mr. William H.
Persse, has fall en's victim to the disease. The Master-
General of the, Ordnance, acting under the advice of the
director of th, medical department, Sir John Webb,
immediately or 3ered all the cadets to quit the establish-
ment for a peri od of six weeks, until all danger of con-
tagion is remoi ed. It is understood, however, in order
that the stud ie 3 of the cadets may not be retarded, that
no vacation will take place at Christmas. The disease
practical class of the Royal
has not show rt. itself the
Arsenal, but ielaould it do so, the same course will be
immediately adopted. The disease, which has now
extended itse If to the academy, has been prevelant in the
town of Woolt vich for the last two months, and has
caused great mortality, especially amongst children.
Although it on ginated in close and undrained localities,
it has spread $o sonic of the open and healthy parts of the
town.
