HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK.
(From the Report of tho Registrar-General.)
The mortality of London continues to be of greater
amount than from past experience in the first week of
June might have been anticipated. In the ten weeks
of 1841.50, which correspond to the week ending
last Saturday, the average number of deaths was 864,
and with one exception, the mortality did not in any
case exceed 941 ; but the present return shows that
961 deaths were registered last week, making an
excess of 97 above the actual average, and of 18 above
the average corrected for increase of population.
As compared with the results of the preceding
week (ending May 31) the present return shows a
small decrease in the total number of cases produced
by epidemic diseases, but an increase in those arising
from affections of the respiratory organs. In the
former class the principal complaints are measles,
which carried oil 39 children in the week, hooping-
cough, which was fatal in 47 cases, scarlatina in 15,
and typhus in 46. These epidemics show rather
more than the usual amount of fatality, with the
exception of scarlatina, which does not seem
to have been prevailing much of late. The number
of deaths assigned to small-pox is 16, nearly all
of these having occurred under three years of age.
This is not more than the average mortality from
... small-pox in the metropolis generally ; but it will be
seen that Mr. Hems, a registrar of Whitechapel, re-
ports that the disease is exceedingly prevalent and
i, fatal in Charlotte-court, situated in his sub-district—
that "five children have died there during the last
three weeks, and many others are now suffering."
The registrars also mention cases of typhus and scarlet
fever, that have occurred during the week in various
ice. localities where over-crowding, inadequate drainage,
and noxious smells are complained of.
In the previous week the number of fatal cases
- arising from diseases of the organs of respiration was
136, in the last week 161 ' • this latter number being
• considerably in excess of the corrected average, which
' is 106. This class comprises laryngitis and laryn-
: gismus stridulus, which number 7 cases; bronchitis,
• which was fatal to 64 persons, pleurisy to 6, pneu-
monia to 71, and asthma to 9. From phthisis, or
consumption, there were 146 deaths, an amount of
`%- mortality which much preponderates relatively to that
produced by other causes, but is not greater than is
usually observed in the weekly account to arise from
this disease.
This week the deaths of two centenarians are re-
turned ; the particulars in either case are registered
as follows :
At 103, Heath-street, Mile-end Old Town, on
June 4, a superannuated officer of Customs, died of
1" " old age," at the age of 103 years.
At Weavers' Almshouses, Old-street-road, Shore-
ditch, on June 1, the widow of a salesman, died of:
" natural decay," at the ago of 100 years.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, June 1
(Before Mr. Commissioner FONBLANQUE,
IN BE COX.

The bankrupt, described as William Cox, late of
Throgmorton-street, stock and share-broker, came up
for his last examination.
The balance-sheet, commencing April 16, 1849,
and ending April 4, 1851, showed the following :
Creditors, 6,749/. • ditto, holding security, 11,8161.;
liabilities, 5,3901.; commission, 1,7611. ' • surplus,
April 16, 1849, 3,3371.; amounts received in respect
of the late firm of W. and H. P. Cox, 7,8901.;
debtors, good, 21. ; property, 100/. ; ditto, held by
creditors, 6,400/. ; liabilities, 5,390/. ; trade expenses,
1,471/. ; house and personal expenses, 1,475/. ; gratuity
and expenses to daughter, 6591.; losses, 1,288/.;

H. P. Cox, sundry creditors, 17,062/. ; losses, 2011. ;
interest and charges, 1,2131.; private property of
William Cex, now held by creditors of the firm,
1,679/._

Mr. LAWRARCE, who appeared for the assignees
offered no opposition.
The bankrupt passed accordingly.
IN RE GOLDSMID.
The certificate meeting in this case was adjourned.

IN RE HEELS AND BIEWEE.

The bankrupts, James Keels and Robert John
Bisdee, of 2, Riches-court, Lime-street, London,
merchants, came up upon the question of certificate.
The joint balance-sheet, commencing December 1,
1843, and ending January 9, 185], shows the fol-
lowing :—Joint creditors, 10,8031.; ditto, holding
security, 10,1641.; capital, December 1, 1843, be-
longing to James Keele, 379/.; profits, 1,6781.;
debtors, good, 1,0241. ; property in the hands of-cre-
ditors holding security, 11,711/. • property in the
hands of Beames and Co., 1,6171 ; trade expenses,
4,310/. ; partners'withdrawings—James Kee1e,2,148/. ;
J. Bisdee, 1,7101.; losses, 500/.
Mr. Lawrence appeared for Keele, Mr. Linklater
for Bisdee, and Mr. Alfred Jones, for the assignees,
opposed on the ground that new books bad been pre-
pared, and that it was not satisfactorily proved that
they were correct copies of the old ones, which were
not forthcoming to vouch for the accuracy of the
new ones.
James Keele, examined by Mr. LAWRANCE—The
partnership commenced in 1843. Kept books in the
usual way that merchants did. In 1847 it was dis-
covered that the books bad been improperly kept.
Bisdee went to Sydney in July, 1847, to adjust some
accounts. When the new books were opened
every slim was copied from the old ones. There
was no reason for opening the new books except
the imperfect state of the old ones. Bisdee went
to New South Wales to obtain a settlement of a
balance due to the firm. Previous to Bisdee's
return made an assignment for benefit of cre-
ditors. There was no beneficial result from Bisdee's
going to Sydney. The charges in the colony upon
consignment were enormous-7i per cent., besides
other charges, amounting to 20 per cent., which
swallowed up all the profits.
Robert John Bisdee examined by Mr. LINKLATEIt
—Each partner was to put into the business 1,0001.
within a month cf signing the partnership deed.
Keele kept the books. Went to Sydney in July,
1847, to get money owing to the firm. Believed the
firm was solvent in 1847. When he returned from
Sydney found that Keele had made an assignment.
The clerk they kept was not an efficient man.
Mr. LAWRANCE said it seemed that both these
gentlemen started together with a view to mutual
advantage • they had each to share in the responsi-
bility, and the part of Keele there bad not been
any attempt at concealment. The books had been
kept openly by a clerk, who, it appeared, was but
moderately paid, and that might account for their in-
accuracies. The question was, whether these gentle-
men had anything to be blamed for except trading in
a distant colony when the markets were falling. The
charge which affected the morale of the case more
than anything, viz., destroying the books, had been
abandoned. If there was any charge against the
bankrupts, it was that of imperfect bookkeeping. The
trading extended over a period of seven years, and no
creditor was there to make any complaint. The bank-
rupts had not traded either fraudulently or recklessly,
but it was from misfortune and unavoidable losses
that the failure had occurred, and he called upon his
honour to grant a first-class certificate.
Mr. LINKLATER said the story of Biadee was an
unhappy one, but so far from avoiding the investiga-
tion, he courted it. He had been to Sydney to col-
lect some accounts which were due; he did all he
could, and was unsuccessful. The drawings of Bis-
dee during a period of eight years had been only
1,7001., and that included his drawing money for his
passage to Sydnsy. His drawings, in fact, bad been
less than his father had sunk in the concern. Mr.
Linklater, after calling the attention of the Court to
the fact that no preference had been attempted to be
given to the father of Ilisdee, who had advanced the
money, asked for a first-class certificate.
His HONOUR, in giving judgment, said that there
was certainly no fraud or concealment in the case
before him. But whatever was the state of trade in
New South Wales in the year mentioned, there was
ample time for the bankrupts to have known the
state of trade in the colony, and to have conducted
their affairs accordingly. He (the Commissioner)
must therefore consider that the bankrupts had acted
very improvidently in making large consignments to
places when it was notorious that returns were at
all times difficult to obtain. In considering the cir-
cumstances of the case, his Honour said he thought it
was not a case where the bankruptcy was unavoid-
able, but that it was oecasioned by improvident
trading, the drawings being nearly double the gross
profits. He (the Commissioner)
should draw some
slight distinction between the bankrupts, because it
appeared that Bisdee was abroad when the large con-
signments took place, therefore he considered he was
less blameable than his partner. The certificates
would be of the second class ; that of Keele to be
suspended for six months, and that of Bisdee for three
months, with protection.

attend at the first examination in consequence, of the
violence he had sustained, now stated that on. bearing
the first witness spring his rattle he went forward
and found the constable engaged in a violent struggle
with the prisoner. He attempted to give a ssistance,
but was immediately knocked down. After a violent
struggle, in which witness was severely kioked, the
prisoner was overpowered and taken to the station-
house. On the itay to the station-house the prisoner
threw himself down and inflicted a kick on witness,
which had obliged him to keep his bed for a day or
two.

The prisoner, Who received a good character from
his sergeant, made no defence.
Mr. BINGuAst laid, there was very little doubt that
the prisoner would have perpetrated a dastarc Ily out-
rage on the young woman, but for the fortut late in-
terference of the police. The prisoner had th en pre-
needed to commit a violent assault on the con stables,
one of whom had been so injured as to be ()Waged to
keep his room. The case was one which called for
a severe example, and he should therefore send the
prisoner to the House of Correction for two months.
James Macdonald was charged with the following
insulting conduct to Charles Thieron and Lucien
Caras, two French gentlemen. The complainants
said they were walking in Regent-street cc traversing
in French, when the defendant passed and n lade gri-
maces at them. M. Thieron inquired the cause of
this unprovoked insult, and the grimaces were re-
peated. The complainant lifted his cane, bu t it was
broken by the defendant, and he received. a slight
blow.
Both gentlemen begged the magistrate to overlook
the offence and to pardon the defendant.
Mr. BINGHAM said, bad it not been for the, earnest
recommendation of the complainants he shot it d have
made an example of the defendant. At Cal s time,
when the metropolis was filled with foreign visitors,
they must be protected from insult or annuyance.
He would not stand in the way of the good feeling
which these foreign gentlemen, highly to their honour,
wished to exhibit, and should discharge the d, 3fendant
with a caution to conduct himself with pros triety in
the public streets in future.
WORSHIP-STREET.
Lucy Macdonald, a well-dressed woman by tit of dis-
sipated appearance, was charged at the instal) .ue of the
parish officers of Stepney with:scandalously Aeglect-

ing and otherwise cruelly ill-treating three children,
who had been placed under her care by their father,
the warder of the gaol at Dartmouth, in Devonshire.
It appeared from the evidence that for a consider-
able time past the neighbourhood of the prisoner's re-
sidence, in Queen-street, Cambridge-road, Mile-end,
has been in a state of much excitement in consequence
of rumours that the prisoner was in the habit of
most cruelly treating three children placed under
her charge, one of whom, a little girl eight years of
age, had been lately seen in the street covered
with nothing but rags, both her eyes swollen and
contused, and other parts of her person pre-
senting manifest indications of having been recently
subjected to extreme personal violence. The excite-
ment at length rose to such a pitch that the attention
of the police was attracted to a mob of about 200
persons collected round the house, who displayed the
greatest exasperatioe against the prisoner, calling her
a second Mrs. Sloane, and declaring that they would
burst open the door and tear her to pieces. In con-
sequence of these violent demonstrations a commu-
nication was forwarded to Sergeant Smith, of the K
division, who proceeded at once to the office of Mr.
Seaborne, the relieving overseer, who accompanied
him to the prisoner's house, and on entering a room
on the ground floor they found Henry Brooks, the
eldest boy, and his sister Catherine, with a younger
boy, five years of age, and an illegitimate child be-
longing to the prisoner herself, all of whom presented
the most filthy and wretched appearance, having
scarcely anything upon them to cover their skins ;
and it was elicited upon questioning the first three
children that their father had left them under the care
of the prisoner about nine months previously, when
he was appointed to his situation at Dartmouth, but
that he had regularly remitted to the prisoner from
17s. to 1/. per week for their maintenance. They
stated, however, that the principal food the pri-
soner gave them was dry bread and a little tea, and
that the prisoner was in the habit of cruelly beating
them, sometimes with the wooden roller of a blind,
and sometimes with an instrument which the children
called a heavy stick, but on its being pointed out to
the officer he found it to be the bottom bar of a window
frame. The little boy also stated that he had like-
wise another brother about ten years old, who had
been so cruelly beaten by the prisoner a few months
before that he watched for an opportunity of escaping
from the house, ran away, and he had neither seen
nor heard of him since. The appearance of all the
children indicated that they were nearly in a state of
starvation, and the youngest child was in such an
emaciated condition as to resemble a perfect skeleton.
Having ascertained that the prisoner was in a room
upstairs, he (the sergeant) proceeded there, and found
her lying upon a bed in a state of such helpless intox-
ication that they had some trouble in getting her down
to the lower part of the house, where, in consequence
of the threats of the infuriated mob surrounding the
place, it was necessary to remove her through an ad-
joining house in the custody of a person in plain clothes,
or she would certainly have been subjected to severe
personal violence. The sergeant added, that he had
ascertained from the eldest of the children, who com-
plained that he had not tasted animal food for a fort-
night, that the woman had no excuse for her inhuman
conduct on the ground of poverty, as she had within
that period received a draught for 4/. 10s. from the
father of her illegitimate child, an officer in the army
stationed with his regiment at Malta, in addition to
the usual remittance of 178. per week from their father.
(The sergeant produced the window-bar referred to
by the children, which was a piece of wood about
three feet in length, three or four inches in width, and
of proportionate tbickness.)
The three children, who had been taken under the
care of the parish officers, were brought into court
clothed in decent apparel furnished by the union au-
thorities, and the youngest child, five years old, being
exhibited to the magistrate, his half-starved and atten-
uated appearance excited a feeling of indignant commis -
seration in every one present. To prove that this was not
the natural condition of the little creature a certificate
was banded up to the bench from the medical officer of
the workhouse, stating that it was not labouring under
any disease, but that the deplorable condition it pre-
sented was solely the result of the gross neglect or
ill-treatment to which it had been subjected.
Henry Brooks, the eldest, a boy stated to be 15, an
intelligent but diminutive little fellow, was then ex-
amined, and stated that at the time his father was
obliged to go into the country, leaving them in the
care of the prisoner; they were all provided with
comfortable and sufficient clothing, but that his aunt,
who was in the habit of drinking very much, pawned
the whole of their clothes in a very short time after.
They were in consequence kept closely confined
indoors, and his little brother, from want of clothing,
had not been out of doors fer at least five months.
They were chiefly fed upon bread and weak tea, and
when they did have meat, it was never more than once
a week. The boy added, that after enduring this
treatment as long as he could, he availed himself of an
opportunity of secretly writing to his father, to ap-
prise him of the prisoner's conduct towards them, in
consequence of which he immediately wrote to the
prisoner cn the subject, but since then, to use the
boy's own expression, " she has treated us worse and
drunk more than ever."
Several other witnesses, neighbours of the prisoner,
were in court, and displayed much anxiety to give
evidence in the case; but
Mr. Hitatseir-r, did not consider it necessary to hear
them at present, as he had made up his mind to re-
mand the case for a week, and requested the relieving
overseer to submit the matter to the consideration of
the board of guardians, as he regarded it as a fit case
to be taken in band and prosecuted at the expense of
the parish.
Mr. Seaborne expressed his intention to immedi-
ately do so, and the prisoner, who offered no obser-
vations upon the facts detailed against her, was ac-
cordingly remanded for a week.
LAMBETH.
James Iliamning, a well-dressed young fellow, who
described himself as a servant out of place, was
placed at the bar on Tuesday last, before Mr.
Elliot, on a charge of defrauding, in concert with
two others, Mr. Richard Anderson, a clerk of the
Gloucester Bank, Gloucester, of four sovereigns, a
silver watch and gold guard chain, at Vauxhall-gar-
dens on Monday night.
From the lengthened statement of Mr. Anderson
it appeared, that on Monday evening he was stand-
ing on Hungerford-pier, when he was accosted by
the prisoner, who asked if he knew when a boat would
start for Vauxhall, saying he was going to Vaux-
hall-gardens. Witness replied that he did not
know, nor did he know where Vauxhall-gardens
were. A boat just then came alongside the pier
far Vauxhall, and the prisoner and himself got on
board, and ultimately went to the gardens. Here
the prisoner met with a man who appeared to be
an acquaintance, and with whom he shook hands,
and they all then sat down in one of the
boxes _to have some refreshments. While there

a third man came pup, and asked if the box was
engaged, and the prisoner replied that it was, bat
that at the same time they could make room for him.
This person, who affected to be a stranger to all, sat
down, and said the cause of his anxiety to sit there
was that on the previous night he had given 51. to a
woman whom he had met in the gardens to purchase
a shawl, and that she had promised to meet him in that
very box on that night. The prisoner soon after pro-
posed to toss with this person for cigars, and then for
money, and, having lost three sovereigns to him,
turned to the prosecutor and asked him for some mo-

ney to go on with, saying, he knew a " new dodge"
by which he cnuld win. his money back. The prose-
cutor, through his persuasion, first lent the prisoner
one sovereign and then three, and when the strange
man had won all, the prisoner, in a whisper, repeated
that he was up to a new dodge by which he must win
the money baek again, and induced the prosecutor to
stake his watch and chain for 201. The toss for these

articles was soon over, and they were as soon con-
signed to the pocket of the lucky winner of the
sovereigns, who told the prosecutor he could
have his property back any time he chose
to call at his residence in Tavistock-square,
the number of which he gave. The for,.
tunate winner left the box, for the purpose, as he
said, of ordering a choice bottle of wine at the bar,
but forgot to return. The second man, who acted as
a stakeholder, also sneaked off, and the prisoner made
a desperate effort to get away, but the prosecutor
cried out " Step thief," when he ran away, and was
secured by Sergeant Hughes, who was on duty in the
gardens.
The prosecutor was subjected to a rigid cross-ex-
amination by Mr. Games, the prisoner's attorney, in
the course of which he admitted he had won a shilling
by betting while the tossing was going on. He did not,
he said, join the prisoner in tossing. The prisoner
gambled on his own account, and the prisoner did not
tell him how he was to get his money back if the pri-
soner lost. The prisoner told him that the man who
won his watch and chain would give his address, and
the latter said he resided in Tavistock-square.
Sergeant Hughes deposed to having apprehended
the prisoner, and found on him twenty shillings in
silver, and some copper money. He looked after his
companions, but did not succeed in finding them.
The prisoner was remanded for a week.

RE LATE ACCIDENT TO THE MARQUIS OF LON-
TIONDERRY.—We regret to say that the accident, which we
mentioned a few days since as having happened to the Mar-
quis of Londonderry, is likely to be attended with more se-
r,,,us consequences than were at first anticipated. The Noble
Marquis is stilt confined to a sofa, and Dr. Eerguson and Mr.
Laurence, the eminent surgeons, who are in attendance, are
unable to state with confidence that at; pperatiOn will not be
uweettary.
