POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THE DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT SELF-MURDER.—Martha
Reynolds, a bootmaker, living in Littlo Windmill-street,
charged with attempting to take his life by stabbing him-
self, was again brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt.
The prisoner was seen by a follow-lodger stabbing him-
self in the stomach, but was seized by him and prevented
doing further mischief to himself, and taken to the
hospital.
Mr. °swain Vince, house-surgeon of the Middlesex
Hospital, attended to-day, and said the prisoner was
admitted to the hospital on the Bth of July, having
stabbed himself in the stomach, and he remained there
till last Wednesday.
Mr. Tyrwhitt asked tho witness whether ho noticed
anything particular in the prisoner's conduct.

Mr. Vinco said he appeared rather strange.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a very awkward thing for a
magistrate to discharge such a man without any friends to
look after him, the more especially as he believed he had
already been in au asylum.

The prisoner snit' he had never been in au asylum.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a clear case of deliberate at-
tempt to commit suicide.

The prisoner said ho had no friends. Ho was a native
of Ireland.

Mr. Tyiwhitt said if ho discharged the prisoner and ho
destroyed himself it would bo laid at his door. Ho would
again remand the prisoner, and ho hopod if publicity was
given to the matter that some of his friends would come
forward and take care of him.

Appearance of the Houses Last Evening.

Last evening there was revived in the House of
Peers one of those spectacles which have been very
infrequent, and indeed have scarcely occurred at all
in the last two or three years. The second reading
of the Reform Bill produced in the upper chamber a
great contrast to its normal condition, and a still
greater contrast to the House of Commons, as it
appears on a special political occasion. Though full,
and what may be called its outer rim overflowing,
the bsdy of the House of Lords did not present that.
painfully packed aspect which characterises the Com-
mons, nor was there the same stiffness and angu-
larity in the former which is inevitable in the other.
The prevailing tone of the Commons is sombre,
while the Lords' house is radiant with colour, crim-
son and purple tints abounding in the area, while
ever-varying kaleidoscopic hues are caught from the
dresses of the ladies who fringe the gallery. In
every respect besides the audience is a representa-
tive one, and it was to an assembly at once
fit as well as full that the Earl of Derby rose
to bring forward the Pefor►n measure of the
Government. Nothing could be more confident
than his tone, and the way in which he spoke of
having gathered peers from all parts of the world
to support him against the gratuitous opposition
of Earl Grey was specially significant of that re-
solve which was to be traced in his every word,
that of yielding no jot of the measure which it had
cost him so much anxiety to bring to :its present
position. Though his voice was somewhat more
shrill than of yore, and the physical effort he was
making was not inconsiderable, he sustained him-
self
effectively, and was fluent and distinctly audible
to the very end of a speech of very nearly two hours'
duration. There is no doubt that Earl Grey has
studied elocution, so as to be painfully artistic , and
though his voice is used to be clear and sufficiently loud
he always seemedas if he had followed the Demosthe-
nic method, and having studied eloquence with peb-
bles in his mouth had forgotten to take out one of
them when his pupilage ceased. If emphasis and
energy of speech are proofs of sincerity of opinion,
he intended on this occasion to give evidence of the
profundity of his convictions on the question of
reform from his own point of view. But the noble
earl overrated his powers, for, some time before he
finished his speech, his voice failed him, he became
quite inaudible, and with something like an apology
for failure, he came to an abrupt conclusion. The
first of Lord Derby's party who pronounced
for the bill was Lord Ravensworth—of whom,
however, there is a tradition that he was at
one time a reformer. At this time the debate
took what may be designated a minor turn,
the speakers being the Earl of Morley, Lord
Stratford de Redcliffe, the Duke of Rutland, who
revived from a long silence to oppose the bill, and
the Earl of Camperdown, a youthful aspirant to
Parliamentary honours, which he sought to achieve
by a course against the measure akin to that of
the Cranborncites in the Commons. With sin-
gular sequence the Earl of Carnarvon took up
the theme in the same sense as the two preceding
Peers, and drew a picture, with no flattering hand,
of his late colleagues as they appeared dealing
with Reform in Opposition and in office ; all
the while Mr. Disraeli listening to him from the
steps of the throne. The task of replying to the
noble earl was committed to Earl Beauchamp,
who is a member designate of the Government.,
aud, therefore, had made elaborate preparations
to defend it. The noble earl outdid his congeners
in the liberality of his views, expressing a
desire that household suffrage should be ex-
tended to counties, and was accordingly congra-
tulated with some irony by Earl Granville, who
followed, on the skill with which ho and the Go-
vernment which he followed had so long stifled
their reforming ardour, which when it escaped
them had absolutely put Mr. Bright into the shade
of reaction. As a whole he accepted the bill,
though he urged some, indeed a good deal, of ex-
pansion of its scheme of redistribution. It was
time for the Government to be heard by its repre-
sentatives proper, and so the Duke of Marlborough
began to speak on behalf of his order in the Cabinet.
As it was whispered earlier in the evening that it
would be, the Earl of Shaftesbury obtained the
adjournment of the debate soon after half-past
twelve.

The small attendance of members in the Com-
mons was not less significant of the " period of the
session" than the performance of the annual sacri-
fice of bills, by the Parliamentary Arch-Priest.
The fulfilment of his promise by Mr. Disraeli to
indicate the measures which the Government pro-
pose to cast into the limbo of next session, how-
ever, did not involve so large a destruction
as might have been anticipated. Out of fifty
bills in charge of the Government he actu-
ally withdrew only nine ; the most notable
of which which were the Murder Law Amend-
ment Bill, the Irish Land Bills, and the Admiralty
Jurisdiction, and the Office of Judge of the Admi-
ralty, Probate, and Divorce Courts Bill. The 41
other measures, together with the remainder of the
Estimates for some of which immediate arrange-
ments were made, form a programme quite adequate
to occupy two months more hard work ; but there
is always more than one " massacre," and the second
is invariably more ruthless than the first. Possi-
bly Mr. Disraeli reckons a good deal on the plas-
ticity of the house to get through such a mass ,of
business as he has left still to be dealt with ; and
he might well take encouragement from the first
formal Act of the House last evening, which was
to pass the second reading of the Scotch Reform
Bill without a word of discussion, there being
only three or four Scotch members present.
Again, the Meeting in Parks' Bill, which awhile
ago would have created quite a sensational
debate, was very tersely discussed ; its object,
that of rendering political meetings in the
Parks unlawful, being very quietly stated by Mr.
Gathorne Hardy, while Mr. Peter Taylor, though
he was emphatic in his denunciation of this mea-
sure, was not in the least stimulated by that overt
sympathy of his supporters which is signified by
inarticulate sounds. The surrounding circum-
stances were appropriate to the calm, philosophical
tone of Mr. Stuart Mill's speech, and the only ex-
citement, and that was momentary, was caused
by one of Mr. John Hardy's blundcrings into ex-
cess of language, so as to render it necessary to
call him to order. The discussion stopped almost
with a jerk, and the second reading was passed,. on
a division, by 181 to 64. The next order being
supply, in a moment or two the House was reduced
to the minutest of committees. Having gone
through the votes prescribed for the evening, the
House fell on the orders, which were, before they
were weeded, 61 in number, and dealt with a
variety of subjects, such as turnpikes, county
courts, lunatic asylums (Ireland), and so on for the
rest of the sitting.—Telegraph.

COLLISION ON THE NORTH LONDON RAILWAY.—
A serious collision took place early on Sunday morning on
the North London Railway with a train loaded with volun-
teers returning from the Wimbledon Review. The special
was rather a long ono, and was conveying an Essex corps
back to their headquarters at Stratford Victoria Dock. On
approaching the Victoria Park Station, about half-past
twelve o'clock, the North London engine was detached,
and ono belonging to the Great Eastern lla►ilway Com-
pany put on in order to take the train down the Strat-
ford branch of the North London, which loaves the
main line just above the Victoria Park Station.
It appears that some of the Volunteers wished to alight at
tho latter station, and in passing on to the branch the traiu
went beyond the platform, and the driver reversed his
steam and backed the carriages. In doing so the rear
break of the train returned on to the main up line. Just
at this moment a light engine came up, on its way to the
company's locomotive works at Buw, and the pointsman,
thinking that the special had gone on, gave the signal
clear, and the light engine proceeded on the same lino of
rails on which the end of the Volunteers' train was
standing. As the engine driver came on and neared
the platform, he saw the rear of the train, and
ho did his best to slacken speed. The distance, how-
ever, was too short to avoid a collision, and the
engine struck the last carriage with great force and shat-
tered it, and also the next two carriages. As may be
imagined there was considerable alarm at the time, and,
considering the nature of the accident, it is most providen-
tial that the consequences were not more serious to the
volunteers. Two of them were stated to have been much
hurt, but we have not been able to ascertain the precise
extent of their injuries. The shock must also have been
severe to the occupants of some of the other carriages.
After some delay the disabled carriages were detached and
the train sent on. The injured volunteers were forwarded
to their respective homes. This is the second collision
that has happened on this small section of the line within
the last few days.
