DENMARK.

A Berlin journal, of the 13th, states that the ne-
g,stittiioris between Prussia and Denmark, for the
suppression of the Sound duties, has been broken off.
Th 9 Copenhagen journals continue to assert that the
Government of the United States has sent a strong
note to the Danish Ministry, demanding the sup-
pression of those duties.
The Cologne Gazette has the following from
. Copenhagen, 12th :—" The Ministry is great
embarrassment. The Northern Powers continue
Very obstinate in their pretensions. Reliance
is still placed on England ; but the Fiyveposten
announces that it results from a report made by the
15ilifaster of Foreign Affairs, in a secret sitting of the
L4ndthing, that England is not better disposed than
Prussia, Austria, and Russia. The secret sittings of
the Landthing have been closed, as well as those of
the V. olk i
sthing, by the declaration of the Government
that it will mmeoiately present a programme. M. de
Bodesco has arrived with important dispatches for
the Russian ambassador; hismission will probably
not be more agreeable than the contents of the last
note of Lord Palmerston, spoken of by the Flyve-
praten."

LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING,

HEALTH and CLIMATE of CHELTENHAM
The following are a tew brief remarks upon the
climate of Cheltenham, with referet,ce to the causes
supposed to produce the distinctions that exist in this,
in common with other localities; a subject of para-
mount importance to those interested in the improve-
ment of health :
The varied state or condition of the climate in this
country affecting as it dots the general health of the
inhabitants, particularly the invalid classes of society,
is a subject that has not received that scientific in-
vestigation whicla so important a matter may be
supposed to require; indeed, little or nothing has
hitherto been done towards ascertaining specifi-
cally the causes of such variations. Elevation, foliage,
or contiguity to the sea, together with such local shields
that protect from the northern or easterly winds,
were deemed quite sufficient for the estimate of
climate; whilst a little reflection must convince any
one how very superficial such a knowledge of climate
really is, when taken irrespective of the essences or
effluvium arising from the chemical evaporations of
certain properties indigenous to every locality; the
exhalations of which primarily constitute the essential
difference of climate, inasmuch as the atmosphere we
inhale Is impregnated with their virtues. Nature's
laboratory is continually giving off the emanations or
subtleties of all that her bosom contains, imparting to
every locality that efficacy and tone of which the
source itself consists.
Take Cheltenham as an instance, where the analy-
tical investigations prove the subsoil to contain the
following properties :—Muriate of soda, muriate of
lime, muriate of magnesia, sulphate of soda,
which are the properties of its mineral waters, so uni-
versally celebrated for their curative and beneficial
results. The town and its environs abound with these
saline substances—properties indeed that are known to
be component with the human constitution—a fact, I
submit, that deserves the greatest attention from
those seeking to supply the waste that loss of health
has sustained.
In addition to our local knowledge there are occa-
sional tests, that may afford a practical estimate of the
important difference of climate, more than an ordi-
nary routine of proof could do, and those are epide-
mical diseases. During the rage of cholera in the
years 1831 and 1849, , Cheltenham bad not a single
case, although it must be borne in mind, towns
within eight miles were suffering from the malady ;
mark, this was uniformly the case, under two, distinct
visitations of the disease in England. Are there not,
I would ask, cogent reasons to conclude that Chelten-
ham may attribute its immunity from cholera to the
saline evaporations of those substances before alluded
to, which the inhabitants were continually ab-
sorbing; indeed, the opinion of Dr. Edwards,
a medical correspondent of the Times, re-
siding in London, whose experience of cholera
in India corroborates the inference of all I have
deduced, when stating "that the blood of
cholera patients (as an admitted fact in prac-
tice) was defective of those saline properties essential
to life and health." Clearly then, from these ad-
mitted facts, saline virtues are essential to health, and
from the tests above enumerated, the climate, depend
upon it, demands greater attention than it has hitherto
received, as the cardinal index to nature's restorative,
by an investigation of these neglected facts and pro-
porties ; many localities in England are in ignorance
of the medicinal virtues inherent to the soil they in•
habit. The chemical action of the great globe itself
is not considered with respect to climate, as though
substances were generated and further process ceased,
without vent or discharge ; the law of evaporation not
respected because not seen ; the rationale of these
conclusions I submit cannot be disputed ; the earth
and its atmosphere form an intimate connexion, and it
is hoped will ultimately receive the attention it merits.
Years past I called the attention of the public to the
above considerations, which I trust will not be in
vain. G. T. F. SMITH.

BAIL COURT. Noe 17.
(Sittings in Banco, before Mr. Justice ERLE.)
IN RE THOMAS DONS, ONE, &C.
Mr. JOYCE moved for a rule, calling upon Mr.
Thomas Binns, one of the attornies of this court, to
show cause why he should not pay the hums of 51.
and 41. 7s 3,1., and why 11r should not pay the costs
of the application, and, for his misconduct as an at-
torney, why be should not answer the matters in the
affidavits. It appeared that two boys living in the
county, of the names of Collier and Tovey, had
been committed for trial at the Surrey Sessions.
The mothers of the boys had been recommended to go
to one of two attorneys, either to Mr. Solomons or
Mr. Charnock, to defend the boys. The poor woman
came up to town, and selected Mr. Charnock. They
saw that person, who calculated the expense of the
defence, and said they would amount to 61. The
women bad not this sum with them, but promised to
send a post office order for the amount. They had
great difficulty in raising the money, but at length
succeeded. and then sent Collier, the father of one of
the boys, up to town with the money on the Sunday
before the sessions. The man went to Mr. Char-
neck's office, and knocked and rang, but, it being
Sunday, there was not any one there. After some
time he was coming away, when a person came from
the opposite house (Mr. Binns's) and asked him
what he wanted. Collier told him ; and the per-
son, who was the clerk of Binns' told him to give
him the money, as it would be all the same. The
man gave him the 51., and then asked him to sign a
paper, which he did, and which turned out to be the
paper directing Mr. Charnock to hand him over the
papers. Binns afterwards went to a learned sergeant to
get him to go to the sessions at Guildford to defend the
boys. The learned sergeant said, according to
the etiquette of the bar, he could not appear without
a junior. The boys were brought up for trial at the
sessions, but no attorney appeared; and the learned
sergeant, not having a junior, would not go into
court. But, upon the facts being stated to the Court,
the trial was postponed till the next day, and then it
was postponed to the next sessions at Southwark.
The prisoners' friends then obtained more money and
paid Mr. Charnock, who, at the next sessions, in-
structed counsel. Mr. Binns also instructed counsel,
who stated himself to be the junior of the learned
sergeant. It was then left to the prisoners to say by
whom they would be defended, and they said their
friends had retained Mr. Charnock, and would have
nothing to do with Mr. Binns or his counsel. Mr.
Binns had received 51., and the parties had been put
;o an extra expense of 41. 7s. 3d.
Mr. Justice ERLE —Take a rule to show cause.

POLICE IN TEL LIGEN CE.
GUILDHALL.
Mr. Alderman Wire, Mr. E. Fox, and Mr. C.
Gilpin, members of the board of management of the
Asylum for Idiots at Highgate, attended with their
acting secretary, Mr. Nicholas, before Mr. Alderman
Wilson, to request his attention to a gross fraud which
had been committed under cover of procuring admis-
sion to the asylum for an imbecile child of a cler-
gyman.
Mr. Alderman Wire briefly mentioned the object
of the application, and hoped the press would take
some notice of it to guard the public against the im-
position.
Mr. Gilpin stated that, in consequence of a letter
from some person inquiring the mode of admission to
the charity, the secretary forwarded a printed form of
application, and stated that pupils were admitted on
three scales of payment-100 guineas, 50 guineas,
or 25 guineas; the first for those requiring peculiar
treatment and special attention, the second being the
ordinary charge, and the third intended for such as
were unable to pay the higher sum; children were
also admitted by election twice a year. No more
was heard of this application till a letter
was received from the Reverend T. S. Chal-
mers, of Stafford, enclosing a fac•simile of
the secretary's letter, the printed form of application,
a written statement of the case purporting to contain
at the foot a list of donations, and a note from the
Earl of Carlisle with a donation of 10s. Mr. Chal-
mers stated that he had received these papers from his
Lordship, but he knew nothing of the persons referred
to, either of Mrs. Grimstone, or the Rev. Archibald
Chambers, of Stafford; nor did the other clergymen
of Stafford know them. The Reverend Gentleman,
therefore, forwarded the papers to the secretary, that
he might communicate with the parties interested.
The details filled up in the form of application set out
that the candidate was John Grimstone, born the 17th
of August, 1835, residing in the parish of Stanton,
that he was idiotic in the second degree since bis birth,
that his mother was living, with five other children
dependent upon her, that she intended to provide for
her family by keeping a school, and that she applied
for the admission on the lowest scale of payment. It
purported to contain the signatures of F. W. Whitaker
and H. Smith, both of Stanton, as having a knowledge
of the case. The secretary was therefore directed to
write to some of the donors to the proposed fund of
1501. to enable Mrs. Grimstone to pay the annual
subscriptions to the asylum.
The secretary read the written statement referred
to, which appeared to be an appeal " on behalf of
Mrs. Grimstone, the widow of the Rev. James Grim-
stone, late curate of Stanton, in the diocese of Lich-
field, who died in June last, in consequence of a cold
caugt while attending the sick bed of a dying
parishioner," and it further intimated that 301. would
he given from the diocesan fund. The following are
some of the subscriptions appended :
" Bishop of Lichfield, 101.; Lady hetwynd, 2/.; Mrs.
Arkwright, 21.; Sir H. S. Wilmot, 5/.; Archdeacon of
Derby, 3.; Rev. T. Hope, 11.; Drury Lowe, 21; G.
Crompton, 21.; Sir M. Blackiston, 21.; Mrs. Tunnicliffe,
11 ; J. H. Woodhouse (clerk), 5/ ; Sir E. D. Scott, 5/ ;
Lady Charlotte Gough. 21; R. James, 1/ ; Mrs. Forster,
11.; J. H. Sherwood, 11; Hon. E. S. Jervis, 2/ ; Mrs.
Lonsdale, V.; W. Gruly, 21.; Rev. James Giaborne,
2/ • Lady Wilmot Horton, 11.; Mr. Gisborne, 2/. ; C. R.
Colville, 2/.; Rev. J. Moore, 1L; W. G., per cheque, 2/.,
G. Meynell, 21.; A Clergyman, 1/. 65.; W. Mundy, 21.;
Mrs. Evans, 11; E. S. Chandos Pole. It 10s.; Lady
Crewe, 1/ ; Rev. M. Vavasour, 21.; Maecwood
Grady, I/.; Yarburgh Graeme, per Post•office order, 3/.;
Mrs. Maude, ditto, 2/.; F. C., per cheque, 21; A Lady,
2/.•, and J. Kenrick, 31. 35."
Mr. Gilpin said that the secretary's inquiry, ad-
dressed to the Bishop of Lichfield, produced the fol-
lowing reply from his Lordship:—
" Wrocwardine Vicarage, Oat. 22, Wednesday Night.
" Sir,—Your letter has found me today engaged in
diocesan business here.
" There aro several places of the name of Stanton in
this diocese. But the name of Grimstone, as connected
with this diocese, is strange to ma, and I cannot call to
mind any circumstance relating to the case about which
you have inquired of me. The whole appears to be a
fiction.—l remain, sir, faithfully yours,
"‘ W. Nicholas, Esq. " J. LICHFIELD."
Another letter was read from the rector of Stanton,
as follows
The Rectory, Stanton-by-Bridge, Swarkeston,
Derbyshire, Oct. 14.
" Sir,—Your letter of the 11th inst. has been for-
warded to me after having been to various places. Ido
not know anything of John Grimstone,' and I am sorry
I cannot assist you by sending it to any one of my
name residing at a Stanton,' in Derbyshire.—l am, sir
yours faithfully, " THOMAS W. WHITAKER.
" William Nicholas. Esq."
Mr. Alderman WILSON said he was satisfied the
statement in the appeal was untrue, and wished to
know if the application was for a warrant ?
Mr. Alderman WIRE said it was not at the present
moment. The committee had not yet obtained in-
formation that any person had actually obtained
money from any one.
Mr. Nicholas, the secretary, said that a like impo-
sition on the charitably•disposed part of the Roman
Catholic community had been practised about a year
ago, the Idiot Asylum forms being used on that occa-
sion, when he (the secretary) placed the facts in the
hands of Dr. Doyle, of St. George's Cathedral.
Mr. Alderman Wiaa said the chief object of the
committee at present was to guard the public against
this imposition.
Mr. Alderman WILSON had no doubt the press
would aid in protecting the public, and he should be
happy to assist the committee when they required
them.
