GENERAL PROVISIONS.

We now come to the fourth and last division of the
act, which has reference principally to the question of
rates, the providing, in fact, of the ways and means, the
keeping and audit of the accounts, the imposition of
bye-laws, the conduct of legal proceedings, and the
general dealing with all those rights which must invari-
ab'y be interfered with in the passing of an act like the
present, which interferes with the management of private
property without taking it off the hands of the owner.
In the first place, it enacts that in future no cellar is to
be let unless it is seven feet high, and has au open area
of at least three feet wide in front of it. We now come
to the question of expenses, and may as well state at
once teat full co.rpeneation is to be made out of the
general district rates to be levied under this act, to all
pereot s sustaining any damage by reason of the exercise
of any of the powers of this act ; and in case of dispute
as to amount the same shall be settled by arbitration in
the ma incr provided by this act; or, if the con:Tema-
tion claimed do net exr•eed the sum of 201., the same
may be ascertained by and recovered before justices in
a swannery manner.
Penalties of all kinds are to go to the district fund,
and certain rules are laid down with respect to the re-
covepy of private expenses. The following deductions
shall be allowed to occupiers in respect of payments
made on account of private expenses :
Every occupier holding at a rack-rent shall be entitled
to deduct from the rent payable to his immediate
landlord three-fourths of the amount paid by such
occupier in respect of private expenses.
Whenever any premises are supplied with water by
a local board of health for domestic, trading, or manu-
facturing purpeees, the local board may make for such
supply such charge as may be »greed upon between the
local board and the persons receiving the supply.
Water rates are to be paid in advance, anderae-wer is
given to stop the supply if they are not paid. The
general expenses will be paid out of a general district
rate, which is to be a tax upon all occupiers. In fact;
the model of Sir B. Hall's act has been followed in this
as in many other respects. The assessment is to be
made on the net annual value, and where the owner is
rated instead of the occupier be shall be assessed
upon such reduced e,tinnve as the local board deems
reasonable of the net annu el value, not being less than
two-thirds nor more than four-ti.ths of such annual
value. Where such reduced estimate is in respect of
tenements, whether occupied or unoccupied, then such
assessment may be ma a on one-half of the amount at
which such tenements would be liable to be rated if the
same were occupied, and the rate were levied on the

occupiers.
The usual provisions are set out at great length with
reference to the making of the rate, its publication and
collection, the power of appeal, and the proceeoings
necessary to recover it. The local board have also power
to divide their district and to recover the separate rate.
Powers are also given to borrow money by the local
board at ordinary rates of interest on security of the
rates ; but for exact terms we refer any person who may
desire to lend to the act itself—a useless recommenda-
tion tooth?

sions of this act as to streets and roads, levy a highway
rate and pay the expenses nourr• d by them In respect
of such Streets and roads out of such rate, in cases where
such board is at the time of the passing of this sot
empowered by local act of parliam. nt to levy such rate.
Nothing in this act contained shall in anywise abridge,
lessen, or defeatany power, right, privi ege, or liability
of any local board of health under or by virtue of any
local act of parliament.
Oxford and Cambridge have each special provisions
vesting the governing power in case of the adoption of
the act in commissioners, in the former the vice chem.
cellor and the mayor exercising a sort of conjoiat
authority; 15 commissioners being elected by the
university, 15 by the town council, and 15 by the rate
payers. The act contains the usual saving clauses,
Immo the rights f iodividuals and companies inter-
fere widi, and providing for the settlement of all
disputes by arbitration.
The act only contains two t.et edules setting out the
voting papers in the first place for or against the reaolu-
Lion adopting the act, and the second for the election of
the members of the local board. Of course there are a
multitude of small details which it is necessary to provide
for in the clauses, but the above may be taker, as a
complete summary of all the important provisions of the
Public Health Act of 1858.

fendant and the magistrates and the police. It
was not enough for the deft ndant to establish that
he spoke these words, believing them to be true,
and that he spoke them with reasonable grounds
for so b,lieving. It was open to him in the first
instance to estahliih that ; and it was then for the
plaintiff to show that he spoke the words malici-
ously, and if they were spoken maliciously the de-
fendant was deprived of the benefit of bis defence,
and the material allegation in the plea that the
words were spoken without malice being negatived,
the plaintiff would be entitled to a verdict. The
plaintiff relied on matter antecedent and subsequent
to the speaking of the words as establishing that
Campion was impelled by malice. This included
the various reprezentations by Campion to Mts.
Kelly which were alleged to be prejudicial to the
plaintiff—such as the stealing of sheep and the
loss of money. The subsequent matters were the
conversations with Mr. Cronin, Mr. Singleton, Dr.
Bailey, and Mr. Kelly. With respect to the evi-
dence of Hugh Kt fly, that Mr. Campion told him
to blacken the plaintiff, if they believed that evi-
dence it was quite impossible to absolve Campion
from malice, and malice of the deepest dye. All
the other testimony would in that event be con •
firmatory of that evidence of malice. If they came
to the conclusion that Campion conspired with
Kelly, or employed him to malign Streverr, it
would be very difficult to conceive a case of more
complete and clear malice than would be thus es-
tablished. But Mr. Campion positively contradicted
the evidence of Hugh Kelly, and it was for the jury
to weigh the relative value of the statements. He
(the Chief Baron) could int help thinking that
Kelly was, to a certain extent, a self-blighted wit-
ness, because upon his own showing he entered into
a conspiracy to blacken the character of a yeutig
man who, although he might have thwarted, had
never injured him, and he had done this not to ad-
vance any object of his own, or to secure revenge,
but for the purpose of forwarding the diabolical de-
signs of Campion and of removing Streveus from
the patronage and -ffection of his wealthy aunt,
and thereby blasting his prospects in life. At the
same time a man might be tempted to engage in
such a plot without being prepared to commit the
crime of perjury. It was impossible to say that
perjury had not been c numitted by either of the
parties, for Campion could not have forgotten the
transaction if it occurred, neither could Kelly pes'-
sibly have made any mistake on the subject. Either
the words were used or they were fabricated. They
should ask themselves what inducements at that time
Kelly had to lend himself to such a design, or what
reward or temptation Campion had it in his power
to offer him. Speaking in reference to the observa-
tions made by Mr. Campion to Mrs. Kelly relative
to the plaintiff, his lordship told the jury they wine
to consider whether these observations were made
bona fide, and ftom an-honest conviction of their
truth and justice, to a woman whose confidential
a Iviser he was, and who was his benefactress, or
whether they were spoken because of a settled
t ) the plaintiff to injure the plaintiff. Ho
left it to the jury to say whether the observation%
made by Campion to Mr. Cronin, Dr. Bailey, and
Mr. Singleton were made from malice, or whether
they were volunteered or drawn out in conversation
and then conscientiously used. The plaintiff had
lost a large estate, which defendant had gained, and
that circumstance was calculated to excite sympathy
for the young man ; but they must allow that con-
sidera,ion to weigh with them as little as possible,
as the object of the trial was not to cempensate the
plaintiff for the pecuniary loss he had ,sust +ice I,:
but was narrowed to the limit of injury done to his
character by the accusation made agiinst hits. The
learne 1 judge spoke of the wills that we4e- made by
the late Mrs. Kelly, and said he Oid not' think the
case seas to be viewed as one in which the plaintiff

Several prisoners pleaded guilty to charges of
robbery, brought in Petty Sessions, before the

CLERKENWELL.—A rough, dirty-leaking
fellow, who gave the name of James Brown, aged
30, a bricklayers' labourer, residing at 4, Ramsay-

mately expired. Mr, Wri.ght, a surgeon, of Fea-

ti 'ii of the body, and foural a quantity of cxtr

and a clut of blood the .ize of an

body were perfectly healthy. When the prison r

The prisoner, when called upon fur his defence,
denied the charge, and said ho was perfectly inno-

The reports from the manufacturing districts this
week show but partial symptoms of improvement,
while there is an aggregate increase in pauperism ;
but the mercantile failures have been almost con-
fined to small firms. At Ashton-under-Lyne there
is great distress, but not more than the Poor Law
Guardians are able to deal with, and it is said the
circumstances of the union will bear a comparison
with those of any other. Scarcely any of the mills
have ever ceased to work entirely, and three more
factories have commenced running full time. At
Birmingham the trade has not improved. The
gunmakers are very busy with Government orders,
but in other branches business is most inactive. At
Barnsley trade is languid ; very little is doing in
common goods, the harness or damask drill weavers
are only partially employed, and in other branches
work is scanty. At Bradford there is much distress
among the operatives, by whom meetings continue
to be held, and bitter complaints used. At Bristol
there is considerable stagnation in trade, but the
pressure is not so severely felt as at other places.
At Bury 3,724 persons received Poor Law relief
during the past week, being an increase on the
previous week. At Blackburn two more mills have
commenced running full time, but the applications
for in-door relief continue to increase, there being
103 cases more this week than last ; 1,024 mei*
than in the 'corresponding week of last year. At
Bolton also there is an increase of paiiperisin—
the number of applicants relieved being 123 in
excess of last week, and 1,332 over the number
of the same week last year. At Coventry a slight
improvement in trade is reported, but there is still
much distress, and the relief fund continues in ope-
ration. At Charlton there is an increase of 60 cases
relieved compared with last week, and 950 cases
compared with the corresponding week last year.
At Glossop and Hadfield the distress has been very
great, but private benevolence has been actively
exerted to relieve it. On Wednesday from 400 to
600 loaves, with tea, flour, &c., were distributed
by L Ord E. Howard. .&t dalifax the effects of the
commercial crisis are beginning to be keenly felt,
and suspensions are said to be increasing. At Lei-
cester there are some symptoms of a revival of
trade ; 3,460 are parsons receiving relief, and pri-
vate subscriptions have been made to mitigate the
sufferings of the poor. At Liverpool, though no
actual improvement in trade has teken place, abet-
ter feeling is beginning to pervade the commercial
circles. The shipping arrivals have been large, and
hundreds of (lock labourers have resumed work. At
Manchester there is an increase of 156 persons to-
tally out of work, as compared with the previous
week, the numbers being 9,226 against 9,382. The
number on short time has decreased from 21,872 to
20,975 ; decrease 897. The number of workpeople
on full time is 16,253 against 15,286 last week; in-
crease, 957. At Macclesfield it is reported that the
gloom which Las so lone overhung the staple trade
is very slightly, if at all,° dispelled. ;There is, how-
ever, a feeling prevalent that the wont is over.
The number of applicants for assistance is about the
same as list week. At Nottingham both the lace
and hosiery trades are without improvement. There
are nearly 5,000 persons receiving out-door relief,
being more than double the number on the books
last year at this time, and 257 more inmates in the
workhouse. A committee of private persons con-
tinue to find employment in sewing for about 300
women at the Exchange-rooms. At the northern
p its the trade has been much affected by the mild
weather, and above 200 vessels, usually em-
ployed in the London coal trade, are now laid up
in the Tyne. At Oldham there is much privation
among the poor, and the efforts of the guardians
are being supplemented by the donations of bene-
volent persons. At Ossett business is iu a gloomy
condition, the mills, with one or two exceptions,
being quite at a stand. At Preston there is a de-
crease in the number of paupers this week as com-
pared with last, the cases being 9,958 against
10,116 ; decrease, 203. At Paisley an improve-
meat in the pie spects of trade continues to be ob-
servable, and the feeling everyday growing stronger
that the wont is over. Several of the large factories
which have been working only three-quartets time
will go on full time as soon as the holydays are
over. At Rochdale few additional symptoms of
improvement have taken piece. Ie the immediate
ilistriet some mills which had been stopped have
b •gun full time. In the direction of Bagslate, Cut-
gate, Ashworth-moor, and Whitworth, there is no
alteration, but at Bacup several mills which were
lately stopped have resumed work. The cotton-
mills in the direction of Sinallbridge and Little-
borough mostly keep to three or four days a-week.
In the Rechthle Union, however, there is an in-
crease of out-door paupers, the applicants being
2,961 this week against 2,171 at the same time
year ; inc ease, 790. At Stalybridge, Ressley, and
Duliinfield the pressure has been borne remarkably
well, scarcely any of the mills having ceased altoge-
ther. At Sheffield the falling off in the wages paid
for the Christmas week amounted to one third of
the total sum pail last year. Some firms paid only
h Of the aincunt of last year's wages, and others
comparatively nothing, the American houses being
the wo:st. There is an increasine number of a;,pli-
e
nits for relief. The iron trade in South Staffot d-
Aire continues depressed, and notice has boon given
of a further reduction of wages. Since Sept. lest 42
blast furnacis out of 157 have been blown out ;
abeut 10,000 Leeds have teen thrown out of em-
Woyment, and about 20,000 are making only about
half Hue.. At Waliefi-31(1 pressure of the times
his begun to be acutely felt, and s eves al firms have
given way ; but the leading establishnieuts of the
place are believed to be in a sound condition. The
shipwrights on the Wear continue on strike. The
shipbuilders have offered to split the difference
bet weeen them and their men, making a reduction
of 63. instead of ls. per day in wages ; but the
latter, after holding a meeting, have determined to
stand out for their full wages, ss. per day. About
1,400 persons aro on strike. In Yorkshire the iron-
masters have been compelled to make a reduction
of wages, which has generally been submitted to.

EDINBURGH STUDENTS —A stranger, on first comiag
to Edinburgh must necessarily be much surprised at the
very motley aspect of the crowd which issues from the
college gates when the bell tolls the hourly signal for the
dismiaal and gathering of the classes. Boyhood, adoles-
cence, manhood, and even age, are there represented.
Two generations are mingled together, for they may be
counted from 14 to 40. First, perhaps a group of juniors
full of animal spirts and fun, charges down the step.
Then comes a knot of grave young men, evidently des-
tined for the ministry, to whom education is a serious
matter, for their future livelihood depends upon it, and in
the meantime, the resources of their friend., far away in
Angus or Dumfries, have been taxed to give them the ad.
vantages of a course at the University. Then strides forth an
unmistakeable native of the north, older than the others,
and with the marks of stern determination on his brow,
though somewhat uncouth in appearance. This is a spe-
cimen of a class of whom Scotland has cause to be proud,
and of whom she is sometimes even not sufficiently proud.
For the man whom the stranger remarks there has re-
ceived no preliminary education which laxity itself could
denominate classical. Born of obscure parents, in an
exceedingly remote parish, and apparently destined to
win his bread by manual labour, he received many years
ago the common elementary education of a Scottish pea-
sant, and from, that has passed to a handicraft. But
something tells biro as he measures himself with his
fellows that he is inteuded fur a higher career ; and,
accordingly, he has worked double tides, saved, pinched,
almost starved, throughout one or more summers, in
order that he might be able during the winter season to
attend the University classes. This is no exaggerated
picture, nor are such instances unconansor.—Blackisood's
Magazine.

A
CARD-SIIABPING INCIIDENT.—A French gentleman
was yesterday sauntering along by the south suburbs of
Edinburgh, when a spruce individual joined him, and
began to explain the beauties of the scenery, with
learned allusions to historical occurrences. This went
on for some time, and the Frenchman became quite
fascinated with his guide, so that when the latter pro-
posed a visit to the ruins of a certain old castle, once
distinguished as the residence of Queen Mary, he readily
consented. A cab was accordingly procured, and they
proceeded in the direction of Craigmillar. Arrived
at the base of the elevation on which the said castle is
built, they stepped out of . the cab, started for the top
of the hill, and on the way thither came upon two
men engaged in a game at cards. The guide
hero forgot about the castle, and turned aside to the men
busy at their game, the unsuspecting Frenchman looking
on. When his guide requested an advance of 20e. on his
watch his eyes were opened, and finding the sort of
company he was in, betook himself to his bee's, reaching
the cab without a pause. Breathless and exhausted, he
threw himself into it, and having given the cabman
order to proceed to Edinburgh, was ruminating on his
adventure, when he discovered to his dismay that a
handsome silver snuff-box had been abstracted from hie
pocket. He drove up to the police-office and lodged
information, describing the impostor as " blind of an
eye." S;ep3 will be taken for the proper investigation
of the case.—Caledonian Mercury.
