has recently reported to his commissioners on ..he,
con-
dition of the houses in Plumtree-court, Holborn.
Three
years and more ago we described the very house in this
very court, then as now the abode of disease, and the
cradle of immorality and misery. The statement wag
reproduced and commented on in many journals, and
was afterwards by us published in "London Shadows ;"
but no amelioration appears to have resulted, and now,
three years afterwards, the metropolis hears the descrip-
tion with the same expressions of astonishment as before,
admits the frightful evils to which such a state of things
gives birth, lifts its hands,—and will then probably
forget all about it, as before. Let us hope, however, it
will Rot be 404—Bui/dev.

SWINGING FESTIVALS IN INDIA.

CALCUTTA, April IP.—The bloody rites of the Chur.
ruch Poojah, or swinging festivals, which take place
annually and at this time of the year in honour of
the god Shiva, are ai present being• celebrated in
India ; and the cruelties then inflicted are voluntarily
submitted to on the part of the iudividvals who under-
go them.

- A ceremony of this kind took place on the 11th of
April, in the Circular-road. The place was crowded
with natives of every caste and shade of colour,
dressed up in the most gaudy and fantastic manner
possible. Great numbers of the women and children
had large brass rings about four inches in diameter
through their noses, also rings round their angles by
way of ornament. The spot where the tragic scene
was to be enacted was ; large square, surrounded
with houses, on the tops of which were seated crowds
of Indians of every age, and all mere or less excited
with an intoxicating compound called " bling." In
the centre of this square was erected a long, pole 60
feet high, at the top of this was another about 40 feet
long, placed at right angles to the former, working in
a socket in the centre, and capable of being whirled
round ; and to each end was attached a rope. Having
waited for ten minutes or so, the infatuated native
who was to be swung carne in, amid the beating of
Indian drums and the shouts of the people. The
man had a wild expression of countenance, with his
eyes glaring, being under tho influence of bhang, of
which he had consumed great quantities during the
three previous days to deaden the pain. This unfortu-
nate native had two large iron hooks (not unlike those
u-ed by butchers at home for hanging up meat) thrust
through his back, three inches apart, and making a
wound four inches in length, from which the blood
streamed down. This being done the men tied the rope
which was fixed to one of the ends of the horizontal
pole to the two hooks in his back, and likewise passed
through a cloth, which was tied slackly round his breast
to prevent him falling to the ground should the flesh give
way, which it sometimes does. They then pulled down
the other end of the pole, which of coarse raised the
one with the man along with it, and then ran round at a
great speed for the space of a quarter of an •herlir. All
this time the poor man was suspended in the air by the
hooks in his back, and whirling round 50 feet from the
zround ; and from the manner in which he kicked about
his legs he appeared to be suffering great agony. When
he was let down, and the hooks taken out of his back, he
was more dead than alive, and the laceration caused by
them was frightful. Men who undergo the swinging
seldom survive it.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—June 'T.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Sittings in Banco, before Lord Campbell, and Justices
Coleridge, Erle, and Crompton.)

IN SA THR PARISY OF WHITECHATEL-COMPENSATION FOR

LOSS OF OFFICE.

Mr. Metcalfe applied for a rule for a mandamus, com-
manding the trustees under 16 and 17 Vic., to award
compensation to Mr. Simonds, who had been 17 years
surveyor of pavements in the parish of Whitechapel. The
office bad been abolished under the Metropolis Local
Management Act, and when Mr. Simonds applied to the
trustees for compensation, they said he must go to the
MetropAitan Beard of orks.

The Court—What objection have you going to tha
board ?

Mr. Metcalfe—Because there is no appeal from their
decision ; and, in awarding compensation, they generally
give very small sums.

- The Court—lf we granted a rule, you would only sub.
ject yourself to the costs.

Rule refused.

BAIL COURT.
(Sittings in Banco before Mr. Justice Wightman )
IN RE AN ATTORNEY-ALLEGED MISCONDUCT.
Mr. M`Nainara moved for a rule calling on an attor-
ney to answer the matters in an affidavit. It appeared
that some time since a widow lady, Mrs. Brown, had'
placed several sums of money in the attorney's hands
for the purpose of being invested ; he had since become
bankrupt, and it has been found he had never invested
the money, and the lady had not as yet got either prin-
cipal or interest. She brought an action against him
which was referred to the Master, who found that a sum
of 1,8441. was due to her. The defendant had since kept
out of the way, and this application was therefore made.
His Lordship said he could not grant the rule. The
applicant had chosen to proceed by action, and could
not have a concurrent remedy by a summary application.
Rule refused.

LAMPETER COLLEGE.

Mr. L. DAVIES arked the Secretary of State, whe-
ther it was his intention to bring in a bill to repeal the
elause in the Act of the 16th and 17th of the reign of
her present Majesty, which authorises the removal of
Saint David's Collage from Lampeter to Brecon, sneer
the sanction of her Majesty, advised thereto by the
Privy Council ; and, if not, whether such ,anction would
be withheld, in compliance with the prayer in the nu-
merous Petitions presented on the subject.
Sir G. GREY said there wns no such scheme at
present before the Privy CP‘ ncil or, he believed, the
Ecclesiastical Comnahneon. No deoimi ni would be ar-
rived at without alloNving to the upponents of such a
measure the
oppo,tunityofand urrrinc,
stating ts
their objections,
Sir J. PABINGTON asked the Secretary for the
Home Department whether he had received any infor-
'nation with respect to a memorial signed by 1003 of the
Fellows of Oxford, which had been transmitted to the au-
thorities, touching pecuniary circumstances in the elec-
tion of fellows ?
Sir G. GRET said he bad no officialinformation with
respect to the memorial referred to, but there had been a
preliminary meeting of the Privy Council at which he
had not been able to attend, but he had no doubt the
memorial bad been transmitted to the proper quarter,
where it would receive every attention.
FOREIGN TROOPS IN ENGLISH PAY.
Mr. OTWAY gave notice that on Monday he should
ask the Under Secretary of War the numerical strength
of foreign troops in the pay of this country, and what
was to be their future destination.
ABSENCE OF HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS.
Sir J. PAKINGTON complained of the absence of
the Under Secretary for War at that hour, which pre-
vented big putting a question to him of some importance.
.Mr. LABOUCHERE said the hon. gentleman was
Absent in consequence of a domestic Affliction.
Sir J. PAKINGTON said the answer of the right
hea- gentleman was satisfactory.

v`
THE
LATE ABDUCTION CASE.
Mr. HIT,DYARD asked the First Lord of the T, ea-
bury whether the attention of the Government had been
"directed to the case of Susannah Evans, a girl of 15
ears of age, conveyed to Hamburg for the purpose of
rostitution ; and 'whether, in consequence of the die-
. losures elicited in the investigation of that case before
it R. Carden, any correspondence had taken place be-
tween the Foreign Secretary and Colonel Hodges, the
British Consul at Hamburg!
Sir G. GREY raid that the attention of the Govern-
ment had been directed to this case. DLspatches from
Col. Hedges, the British Consul at Hamburg, relative to
this case, lad been received at the Foreign-office, and
bad been transferred to the Home Secretary's De-
partment. These despatches detailed what Col. Hodges
bad done with reference to this case, and also cases of a
similar ,character, though not of so aggravated
a iAtxtre, that had come under his notice. From these
despatches it appeared that an extensive traffic, for so
it'rnight be called, of this disgraceful character was car-
ried on between the ports of Hull, Liverpool,London,
n Hamburg. He (Sir G. Grey) had communicated j

the price of their merchandise 20 per cent. The
European Anerchants established in the Crimea are
waiting for the conclusion of peace to convey their
merchandise to Odessa and the Principalities. The
thermometer at Sebastopl had fallen as low as 17
degrees below zero (nearly at zero of Fahrenheit),
so that the troops remained shut up in their

SPAIN.

MADRID, April 2.—Government has bestowed
the order of the Golden Fleece on the Imperial
Prince of France ; a high functionary is to carry
the insignia to Paris. The rumour of Gen. Concha
having been removed from the, government of
-:Ouba is unfounded. Tranquillity is general.. The
iAjudication'of the railroad frnai Xeres to Seville
has been liostponed in consequence of doubts on
the legality of some of Op biddings. - •
The Madrid Gazette of the 29th ult. contains an
account of the disturbances at Badajoz. It appears
that on the 23d some of the inhabitants and Na-
tional Guard began quarrelling and fighting in a
wine-shop, and that, cries of help being raised, a
corporal and four men from the nearest guard house
were sent: to re-establish. order ; the, soldiers • were
attacked and two of Ahern wounded ; a-large body
of soldiers- who were sent were repulsed,' and
then a detaehment of 40 -men was'marched aff.ainst
the rioters, who were immediately dispersed, aid
had two Of their ringleaders arrested. The cap-
tain-general :and other authorities hurried to the
spot, but no further attempt at disturbance was
made. ,

STATE OF GREECE.

Mr. EWART inquired whether any measures were
being adopted to procure the removal, by the Govern-
ment of Greece, of export duties and dimes, stated in the
report from onr consuls as pressing injuriously on the
commerce with that country ?
Lord PALMERSTON said the subject bad been
under consideration for some time, but he could give no
satisfactory information. The state of Greece was so
unsatisfactory that the only part of it that could be tra-
versed with safety was three miles of road between
Athens and the Pirwus, which was patrolled night and
day by French cavalry. (Laughter.)

LAMBETH PARISH AND SIR B. HALL'S BILL.--A nu•
meroua meeting of the ratepayers of Lambeth was, held at
the vestry. hall on Wednesday evening, Mr. Church warden
Stratton in the chair, to express an ,opinion upon the bill
brought in by the Attorney-General to explain certain
clauses of the Metropolitan Local Management Act The
two members for the-borough, Messrs. Wilkinson and
Williams, and Mr. Murrough, M.P. for Bfidport, were
present. The chairman, in explaining the object of the
meeting, said that no one could have imagined that
when the Liberal Sir 13. Hall brought in his Local
Management Bill he had a secret design of depriving
the ratepayers of their privilege of electing church-
wardens and everseers. Mr. Giles moved a resolution
expressive of the indignation of the meeting at the ato
tempt on the part of the reformed House of Commons
to take away their authority in the common law ves-
tries to elect churchwardens, overseers, and other
parochial officers, contrary to the express stipulation
given by Sir B. Hall when his bill was passed. Mr.
Murrough proposed an addition to the resolution,
" That if the Attorney-General proceeds with the
Metropolis Local Management Amendment Bill the
members of this borough be requested to use their
utmost endeavours to get a clause inserted for preserve
ing to the ratepayers of the metropolitan parishes all
the duties, powers, and privileges which before the
passing of the act bad been performed and exercised
by them in vestry, relative to the election of church
wardens and overseers for the poor, or the manage
[cent and relief of the poor, and the administration 0
their property applicable to the relie :the poor.
Several gentlemen having given their opinions upon
the subject,, the original resolution proposed by Mr.
Giles was carried unanimously amid great cheering. The
rider proposed by Mr. Murrogh was also carried as a
substantive motion. Liter addresses from Mr. Wilkin-
son and Mr. Williams, a committee was appointed to
prepare a petition to the House of Commons founded on
he resolution.

CORN EXCHANGE. • ,
Very moderate supplies of English wheat-2;050 quer-
ters—have arrived coastwise this week. Fresh up to-day
the receipts by land carriage were small, and the show of
samples of both red and white was limited. For most
kinds we had a steady demand, and, in souse instances,
prices were the turn higher than on Monday. • '
Foreign wheat, the supply of which was by no means
extensive, was steady, but the business doing in it W. 3.13
very moderate, at Monday's quotations.
There was a firm demand for barley, and the quotations
had anuPWard tendency. Malt was firm, but not' dearer.
Qats sold slowly at late rates, but beans, peas, and flour
commanded very full prices.
