THE GRE T EXHIBITION.
(THIS DAY.)
'he police returns of to-day exhibit a considerable
.ng off from those of yesterday; and the nine o'clock
saveriment, to all appearance, still continues unsppre-
%dated. The numbers up to three o'clock aro—
At 10 o'clock ... 4,193
At 11 o'clock ... ••• 16.556
At 12 o'clock ... •-• 26 849

At 1 o'clock :;; ... 34,248
At 2 o'clock ... ... 37,954
At 3 o'clock ... ... 40,907
At this time the number of persons who had left was
2,494, so that the largest number which the Crystal
Palace contained daring the day. does not reach 40,000.
The rise in the thermometer in the course of the day
has been considerable, being from 62 to 78. _ _

The pfficial announcement with respect to the closing
of the' Exhibition does not seem to have met with uni-
versal approbation, at least so far as the exhibitors
are concerned. Many of them complain that their chance
of receiving their medals, according to the present ar-
rang.ment, is very remote indeed.
Among the visitors to-day was a new arrival in Eng
land, M. airoche. Minister of Foreign AffAirs in
France. M. Leon Fauclu-r is also still a daily visitor, as
well as M. Odilon Barrot.

CarvilNAL COURT--(THIS DAY.,
. OLD COURT.
TRIAL 0' WILLIAM MUZZALL AND THOMAS GEORGE

YOUNG.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition).
For the defence, it was urged upon the jury that no
reliance could be placed on the-evidence-of' the woman,
w.. 0 had manifestly come torwerd labouring under vin-
dictive feeliugs, eager to have MuzzAll and his friend and
fellow-clerk convicted of a crime wench involved the pu-
nishment of transportation; and if her evidence was dis-
believed then there was no evidence upon which the jury
could convict, and therefore it was their duty to acquit the
prisoners. It was insinuated by the ',Renee (3,,unsel that
the woman was anxious to convict the prisoner for the sake
of screening a paramour who had also been a ch rk in
the tiravesund post office, and the suspicion of that cir-
cumatance alone ought to make the jury cautious in
weigning and sitting her evidence.' It was hoped, there-
fore, that the jury would consider patiently and Impar-
t' .11y all the bearings of the case, and if atter such calm
d..dberation they had any doubt upon the matter, they
conirht unhesitaticiey to give the prisoners the benefit of it.
The Learned JUDGE told the jury. in his summing
tke that the case was one of considerable importance to
the public, and he need scarcely add that the prisoners
would be subjected to serious punishment if they were
convicted of the charge imputed to them. He though
there was no foundation for the imputation cast upon
the woman that she was anxious to screen a paramour,
because the evidence went to prove just the contrary
feeling; but what she:had stud in conversation with
Muzze,ll ought not in any way to weigh in their minds
agaielst the prisoner Young. If. however, they believed
her testimony, they could not possibly doubt the guilt of
Muzz ill, while it was for them to say how far they credited
Eer story about taking the two notes to Young, as well
as the evidence of the witness who identified him as
having changed the 51. note. There was a second count
in the indictment, and if they thought lit they could
con% let Muzzill with receiti ig, instead of stealing the
property, well knowing it to have been stolen.
The jury after a brief consultation found the prisoner
Young Guilty of stealing the letter containing tne notes,
and Iluzzall of receiving the notes, well knowing them to
have been stolen.
The COURT set teneed Mozrall to be transported for
twelve years, and Young for ten years.

TURKEY AND EGYPT.
The Journal des Debats publishes the following :
4' We have received letters from Constantinople and
Alexandria, both of the sth instant, but written under
very different impressions. We have already spoken
of the difficulties which have arisen between the
Porte and Egypt. After long negotiations which had
been going on for several months, the Porte, getting
impatient at the resistance of the Pacha, appeared
resolved to employ harsh measures, and had
sent into Egypt, ostensibly for Arabia, about 1,000
Albanians, followed soon after by two regular rtgt-
ments ; but en the day when our letters were dis-
patched dispatches arrived at Constantinople from
Abbas ?ache, containing, it was said, protestations
of peacetul wishes, and which allowed hopes to be
entertained of an amicable arrangement of the quar-
rel. Our letters from Egypt speak in a different sense.
At Alexandria it was believed that the reply of the
Pacha to the ultimatum of the Porte must neces-
sarily lead to a crisis in spite of all the protestations
of devotedness and respect which the Pacha lavished
on the Sultan. It was said that this reply laud been
concerted with Sir J. Murray, Consul-General of
England, who for some time bas enjoyed the marked
favour of Abbas Pacha. It was even said that the
English squadron, under Admiral Parker, had quitted
Malta with orders to force the Ottoman squadron
back if it sailed for Egypt, and the attitude of the
Pacha at home appeared to warrant such rumours.
We believe them, however, to be at least premature.
As to the Hungarian refugees, Austria has protested
against the intention announced by the Divan of
putting an end on September 1 to the detention in
the interior of the refugees of Kutaya. This protest
causes some, embarrassment to the Turki-h Cabinet,
which has promised the English Government not to
detain any longer Kosstith, and his companions in
captivity.. The Porte declares that it made no sti-
pulation with Austria as to delay, and that it remains
sole judge of its liberty of action in the matter;
that Hungary is now tranquil ; and that the moment
appears consequently favourable for putting an end
t.) a detention which occasions expense and embar-
rassment to the Turkish Government. Austria re-
plies that the Porte is not the sole judge of the
matter, but that an understanding ought to be come
to with Austria, and that the state of Europe im-
peratively calls for the continuance of the detention.
Such was the state of the question when Austria
sent in her protest. There is nothing new relative
to the affair of the Holy Sepulchre, as no decision
has yet been come to by the Commission. Up to
the present time, the efforts of the Porte to discover
the murderers of Father Bazile of Antioch have re
maned without result. Tne statutes of the new bank
of Constantinople, with a capital of 25 millions of
francs, have been approved of. A great number of
shares have been taken."

HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK
HEALTH
the Report of the Registrar-General.)
The return for the week ending last Saturday in-
dicates a further and considerable increase in the
mortality. In the third week of July the deaths in
London were only 873 ; in the three following they
were 956, 1,010, and 1,038, and last week they rose
to 1,061. The last *umber must be considered to
represent a high mortality even for London, where
the cotiditions of health are not the most favourable,
and at a period of the year which experience has
already shown to be extremely fatal to the young.
The deaths of last week were more than in any of
the corresponding weeks of the ten years 1841-50,
with the exception of that of 1847, when they were
1,108, and that of 1849, when the cholera raised the
total deaths to 2,230.
The classification of ages shows that the present
increase of mortality arises from complaints amongst
the young; for of the 1,061 persons who died last
week, 565, or more than one-half, were not older
than 15 years.
On referring to the table of fatal causes, it is at
once perceived that the epidemic class contributes in
the largest proportion to the returns of the week, 342
cases, or nearly one. third of the total number, being
eaumereeel under this head ; and that diarrbce 1,
which was fatal in 156 cases, is the predominant
disease amongst epidemics. The progress of di‘trrf,cei,
dysentery, and cholera is shown by the following
numbers registered under these three l,ads in the
last six weeks, namely, 62, 75, 97, 158, 162, and
(last week) 190.
In the Borough-road subdistrict, at 2, Taylor's-
place, William-street, on the 13th August, the
y
daughter of a journeyman furcutter, aged 5 ears,
died of " scarlatina maligna coma. With reference
to this and a former case Mr. Elliott, the registrar,
makes the following remarks :—" Taylor's-place cora•
prises three small houses in a yard, the entrance to
which is in William-street, but there is no thorough..
fare. A boy aged 7 years, brother of the deceased,
died in the same house on 2,1 of August, of remittent
fever and pneumonia. The statement of the mother,
When giving information on Friday, regarding
Ilnisances by which the occupiers have repeatedly,
beene annoyed, appeared so extraordinary, that I re-
aqums,tredci, l that it should be made in writing, and have
