pointed out that while the rural messengers and
postmen received only from Bs. to 14s. a week, they
were greatly overworked, and that they, as well
as their colleagues in the metropolis, were exposed
to an atmosphere of suspicion which it was diffi-
cult fur honest men to endure. Referring to the
rebellion in Jamaica, he expressed it to be his
belief that it was in some degree to be attributed to
the culpable negligence of a public officer in one
of our great departments, who published a confi-
dent:al letter which went out to that is'and, and
which roused the indignation of the natives. Yet,
while the man who had done that great injury to
the country was visited with no punishment, a poor
postman who lost a letter in the street by accident
was at once ruined in life by the action of the head
of his department. Mr. Reid, in conclusion, ad-
vocated the appointment of a commission to in-
quire into the justice of the complaints of those
whose cause he pleaded. The resolutions, having
been seconded by Mr. Richardson, were put
and unanimously adopted. Dr. Begg then
moved, " That, with full conviction of the reli-
gious, political, and social evils resulting from Sun-
day labour as existing in connection with our postal
arrangements, and believing that it may be entirely
abolished without injury to commerce by timely
notice and preparation, this meeting implores her
Majesty's Government to take early steps for re-
moving this great evil from our midst" Reargued
I that it-fias a matter of great social importance that
the 21,000 Post-office employes who were engaged
on Sunday labour throughout the country should
be exempted from such work, and expressed a hope
that by steady perseverance a state of things so
much open to objection on many grounds would be
obviated. Mr. Shaw having seconded the resolu-
tion it was at once agreed to as was also a resolu-
tion praying that Parliament might deem it advis-
able to furnish returns of the scale of pay for the
various grades in the various offices, and of the
• money expended in the detective department—
also one authorising the getting up of a petition
embodying the substance of the previous resolu-
tions. A vote of thanks to the chairman brought
the proceedings to a close.

NEW COURT.

Tyson, the man convicted of perjury at this

morning sentenced to six months' imprisonment from
the present time.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day,

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A SCENE IN COURT.—THE MARQUIS TOWN-
MEND AND THE STREET MUSICIAN.—Thomas Hin-
son, a player on musical glasses, was charged before
Mr. Tyrwhitt with placing himself in a public
thoroughfare near Regent-street, for the purpose of
getting alms.
The Marquis Townshend said—l saw the
prisoner in Regent-street for the purpose
of getting alms. He calls himself a
musician, and plays on glasses. He is in the habit
of placing a child on cold days in a wooden box, on
which is the word " Paralysed." I have cautioned
him before. The child, which is paralysed, to-day
was being carried by the mother, and another
child was placed in the box. What I wish
to know is whether playing glasses in the
street with a child exposed in such a
manner is a legitimate means of obtaining
money from the passers-by. I consider his
practice of taking his child out, and exposing it in
the way I have stated, most objectionable. I do
not wish the man punished, but a caution from you
may be of some use.
The Prisoner—l have been playing my glasses
for 15 years. I have two children to keep, and one
I buried, or at least it was buried by the parish,'
recently. Where am Ito put them ?
Mr. Tyrwhitt—ln the workhouse, if you cannot
keep them. You have no right to take your chil-
dren out and expose them to danger. Your only
object in doing so is to excite charity.
The Prisoner—Am I a forger or a burglar ? Why
am I placed. here ?

Mr: Tyrwhitt —lt is quite clear that the children
are only taken out by you to get alms. As the
person who has brought you here does not wish you
punished I will discharge you, but I caution you
that if you are brought here again under such cir-
cumstances I will send you for three months.
The prisoner, who had all through the case con-
ducted himself in a most offensive and bullying
manner, said---I will play again as soon as I leave
the court. Where am Ito put my children ? You
say that I am not to do what I have been doing,
what am Ito do with them ? You may send me to
prison or the workhouse if you like.
Mr. Tyrwhitt —Your insolence will have no effect
upon me. I should recommend you to take the
caution given to you, for if you come here again
you will get three months.
The Prisoner-1 don't wish to be discharged.
The prisoner was then put out of court by the
officers.

MARK LANE.

Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of English
wheat were only moderate, and generally in poor condi-
tion. Both red and white qualities were inactive at Mon-
day's currencies.

In foreign wheat—the show of which was good—a re-
tail business was concluded at late rates.

Fine malting barley sold steadily on previous terms, but
grinding and distilling samples were a dull inquiry.
Floating cargoes of grain were in little request, but
values ruled about stationary.
The malt trade was heavy at drooping currencies. The
supply on offer was rather extensive. .

Oats were plentiful, and good sound corn moved off
steadily on Monday's reduced terms.

Beans commanded late rates, but the bugriesi transacted

unanimously re-elected.

MARK LANB.

Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of English
wheat wero only moderate, and generally in poor condi-
tion. Both red and white qualities were inactive at Mon-
day's currencies.
Iu foreign wheat—the show of which was good—a re-
tail business was concluded at late rates.

Fine malting barley sold steadily on previous terms, but
grinding and distilling samples were a dull inquiry.
Floating cargoes of grain were in little request, but
values ruled about stationary.
The malt trade was heavy at drooping currencies. The
supply on offer was rather extensive.
Oats were plentiful, and good sound corn moved off
steadily on Monday's reduced terms.
Beans commanded late rates, but the business transacted
was only limited.
Peas Bold slowly at the late deciino in values.

No alteration took place in the top price of town-made
flour, but country and foreign qualities wore rather

easier.

In the seed market there was very little passing. Some
new red cloverseed was on offer, but not at prices suited
to buyers. In cakes next to nothing was doing.

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new description
of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or liga-
tures. They so polfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they
will never change colour or decay, and will be found superior to
any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support
and preserve teeth that aro loose, and is guaranteed to restore
articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth stopped and ren-
dered sound and useful in mastication.

It appears from the Registrar-General's weekly return
that in the week ending Saturday, December 14, 4,353
births and 3,499 deaths were registered in London and
in twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom. The
annual rate of mortality was 30 per 1,000 persons living.
The annual rate of mortality last week was 29 per 1,000

Bristol, 27 in Birmingham, 33 in Liverpool, 36 in Man-
chester, 30 in Salford, 28 in Sheffield, 24 in Leeds, 27 in

deg. Fahrenheit lower than in the same week in London,
where the rate was 27. In London the births of
1,127 boys and 1,019 girls, in all 2,146 children,

polis was greater last week than in any week since
Plat which ended on 23rd March, when 1,731 deaths were

NEW COURT.

Tyson, the man convicted of perjury at this
court in attempting to prove au alibi, was this
morning sentenced to six months' imprisonment from
the present time.

POLICE, INTELLIGENCE. This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A SCENE IN COURT.—THE MARQUIS TOWN-
MEND AND THE STREET MUSICIAN.—Thomas Hin-
son, a player on musical glasses, was charged before
111 r. Tyrwhitt with placing himself in a public
thoroughfare near Regent-street, for the purpose of
getting alms.
The Marquis Townshend said—l saw the
prisoner in Regent-street for the purpose
of getting alms. He calls himself a
musician, and plays on glasses. He is in the habit
of placing a child on cold days in a wooden box, on
which is the word " Paralysed." I have cautioned
him before. The child, which is paralysed, to-day
was being carried by the mother, and another
child was placed in the box. What I wish
to know is whether playing glasses in the
street with a child exposed in such a
manner is a legitimate means of obtaining
money from the passers-by. • I consider his
practice of taking his child out, and exposing it in
the way I have stated, most objectionable. Ido
not wish the man punished, but a caution from you
may be of some use.
The Prisoner—l have been playing my glasses
for 15 years. I have two children to keep, and one
I buried, or at least it was buried by the parish,
recently. Where am Ito put them ?
Mr. Tyrwhitt—ln the workhouse, if you cannot
keep them. You have no right to take your chil-
dren out and expose them to danger. Your only
object in doing so is to excite charity.
The Prisoner—Am I a forger or a burglar ? Why
am I placed here ?
Mr. Tyrwhitt —lt is quite clear that the children
are only taken out by you to get alms. As the
person who has brought you here does not wish you
punished I will discharge you, but I caution you
that if you are brought here again under such cir-
cumstances I will send you for three months.
The prisoner, who had all through the case con-
ducted himself in a most offensive and bullying
manner, said—l will play again as soon as I leave
the court. Where am Ito put my children ? You
say that I am not to do what I have been doing,
what am Ito do with them ? You may send me to
prison or the workhouse if you like.
Mr. Tyrwhitt —Your insolence will have no effect
',poll me. I roaommend you to take the
caution given to you, for it you come lucre again
you will get three mouths.
The Prisoner—l don't wish to be discharged.
The prisoner was then put out of court by the
officers.

WESTMINSTER.

SPECIAL CONSTABLES IN WESTMINSTER.—This
morning as soon as Mr. Arnold, the presiding magi-
strate, took his seat on the bench, an information
was laid by Mr. William Hayes, superintendent of
the B division of police, pursuant to an Act passed
in the session of Parliament of his late Majesty King
William the Fourth, " An Act for amending the
laws relative to the appointment of special con-
stables, and for the future preservation of the
peace."
Mr. Hayes, having deposed in his information
that a riot and tumult were to be apprehended in
the parish of St. Margaret, St. John, and St. Peter,
in the city and liberty of Westminster, and the in-
formation having been duly signed,
Mr. William Eager, the solicitor, of 14, South-
street, Chelsea, presented himself to be sworn in,
and stated that he had served as a special con-
stable in 1848 in the Chartist riots, and was sworn
iu at Bow-street.

Having been informed that no information had
at present been laid respecting Chelsea,
Mr. Eager retired, expressing his intention to
go to the Vestry Hall, Chelsea, and there be sworn
in for his district.
