POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Oct. 28.

MANSION-HOUSE.----The Lord Mayor handed
the following letter to our reporter, with a request
that he would give it publicity.
" Committee-room, Stock Exchange,
" London, Oct. 28, 1858.
"My Lord,—l am desired to address your lord-
ship on the charge made yesterday against William
Lemon Oliver, carrying on business as a stock-
broker, at No. 4, Austin-friars. Many of our
members have bee* much annoyed at the frequent
occurrence of crimes of this kind, committed by
parties calling themselves stockbrokers, who are
not members of the Stock Exchange, and I am re-
quested to state that they would feel themselves
particularly obliged to your lordship if you would
take the earliest opportunity of stating publicly
that William Lemon Oliver is not, and never was,
a member of the Stock Exchange.--I am, &c.,

" GEORGE LOVELESS,
" Secretary to the Committee for
General Purposes.
" To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor."

CtERKENWELL.—WiIIiam Lincoln, aged 26,
a driver of one of the coal vans belonging to the
Great Northern Railway Company, residing at 12,
Perry-street, Somer's-town, surrendered to his re-
cogmsances before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged with
feloniously causing the death of Ephraim Metcalf,
by driving over him with a waggon, in Watford-
street, Somer's-town.
It appeared from the evidence of police-constable
Crooms, 118 S, and several other witnesses, that a
few mornings since, about 10 o'clock, the prisoner
was driving a van, drawn by three horses, laden
with four tons of coal, up Watford-street, St.
Pancras, which is rather a steep incline, just as the
deceased was crossing the street. The deceased,
who was, lame, could not get out of the way in time,
awl was knocked down by the shaft horse, and two
wheels passed over him. One of the poor fellow's
legs was completely smashed, and he died a few
hours afterwards. Since the remand an inquest
had been held, when the jury returned a verdict of
" Accidental death."
Mr. Tyrwhitt remarked that the drivers of such
heavy waggons ought to be careful how they drive
about the streets of London. As the jury had re-
turned a verdict of accidental death, and no further
evidence was produced before him, he should dis-
charge the prisoner.
Edward Isom, aged 21, lately a clerk in the
London Gas Light and Coke Company, was charged
with embezzling several sums of money belonging
to the above company.
Mr. Humphrey, jun., attended for the prosecu-
tion.
Two other short cases having been gone into, in
addition to those which have already appeared,
The prisoner, who declined to say anything. in
answer to the charge, was fully committed for trial.

WORSHIP-STREET.—Ann Hughes, 17, but
representing herself as married, was charged with
being in possession of a valuable gold watch, known
to have been stolen.
Harris, 81 H, said that yesterday afternoon he was
called into the shop of Mr. Fryett, pawnbroker, in
the Whitechapel-road, where the prisoner was
standing at the counter. Mr. Fryett then called
attention to the Pawnbrokers' List of that day,
and producing a gold watch, observed, " About an
hour before I had received the List of this morning
this young woman offered a gold watch in pledge.
I lent her .E 3 on it, and about half an hour since
an elderly woman came to redeem it. I had per-
ceived in the interim that the watch was stolen,
for it exactly answered the description of one in
this paper," pointing to the List; " and when the
amount was tendered, and in my own hands, I told
the woman the watch had been acquired dis-
honestly. She said her daughter had ordered her
to redeem it, and this young woman who I then
sent for is that person. Witness accordingly took
prisoner into custody.
Mr. James Clarke, residing in Bishopsgate, here
stepped forward and identified the watch as his
daughter's property, adding that on the previous
day he received a telegraphic message from the
lady, who was on a visit at Windsor, to this effect:
—" Dear Papa,—My watch was stolen from me
last night." He immediately had a description of
the watch inserted in the " route" of the police,
and certainly the result was highly satisfactory.
Mr. Hammill remarks(' upon the propriety of
the pawnbroker's conduct in the affair, and the
prisoner, who now asserted that her husband had
desired her to pledge it, was remanded.

WESTMINSTER.—AIfred Lowe, alias Smith,
alias Cockett, alias Grant, alias Grey, and various
other names, was charged on remand with conspir-
ing with others to obtain possession of dwelling-
houses by fraudulent representations.
Mr. W. Marshall, barrister, and Mr. J. D. Weeks
conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Hope, solicitor,
attended for the accused.
Mr. Marshall observed that since the previous
examination, the case had assumed a more serious
aspect, and he was now in a condition to show that,
within the last four months, the prisoner had ob-
tained possession of no less than eleven houses of
different parties at various parts of the town. It
appeared that the system adopted by the prisoner
was to obtain possession of a house, and put some
one into one of the apartments rent free, and then
to let the others weekly. He thus obtained the
when pressed for payment,
premises or refused to give
up he
eithertpossessiona
eastnshde the landlord gave him a sum
rental for
deserted a
unless
of money to get rid of him.
A number of eases having been clearly proved
against the prisoner, he was further remanded for
a week.

• MARYLEBONE.—James Smith, described as -a
labourer, who was in a very feeble state, was
charged before Mr. Beadon with having attempted
self-destruction by cutting his throat with a razor,
at 7, John-street, Edgeware-road.
Police-constable Hughes, 86 D, said that on the
19th August last he was on duty in John-street,
Edgeware-road, when the sister of the prisoner
came up to him, and stated that her brother had
made a desperate attempt to destroy his life. lie
went to 7, John-street, and there saw the prisoner,
who was seated on a chair covered with blood. He
was shown a wash-hand basin, which was nearly
full of blood, and he then discovered that the pri-
soner had cut his throat, after having done which
he held his head over the basin. Witness sent for
a surgeon, who endeavoured to stop the bleeding,
and who advised his immediate removal to an hos-
pital. Witness then got a cab, in which he placed
the prisoner, who was accompanied by witness. He
was taken to the hospital, where he has remained
ever since. Witness brought him away from the
institution that morning.
Mr. Beadon asked with what instrument the
wound was inflicted.
The constable replied with a razor which he
found upon a chest of drawers. (He produced the
razor, which was covered with blood.
Beadon observed that he thought that the
prisoner was not in a state fit to be removed. (The
prisoner was seated during the inquiry, and was
obliged to be supported by a police-constable.)
The constable produced a certificate from the
hospital, and stated that he was told by the house
surgeon that he was only weak, and would do now.
Mr. Beadon directed that the prisoner should be
taken to Marylebone workhouse, where he was at
once admitted by Mr. Tubbs, assistant overseer.

WANDSWORTH.—Anne Lane, a middle-aged
woman, who was stated to be a hawker of lace and
caps, was placed in the dock before Mr. Ingham,
charged with obtaining a quantity of wearing ap-
parel from a servant named Harriett Vincent,
under the pretence of telling her fortune and ruling
the planets. . .

The complainant, a very respectable looking
young woman, who appeared to have her wits
about her, deposed that she was out of a situation,
resided at No. 2, South Villa, Wandsworth-road.
About this time twelve months. she was in service
in the Lansdowne-road, South Lambeth. The pri-
soner came to the house, and said if witness could
let her have a dress to rule the planets by she would
be able to tell her fortune. Witness gave her a
dress, and she went Away for that purpose. She

came again soon afterwards, and represented that
she must have another dress, stating at the same
time that one was not sufficient, and that she required
two. The prisoner paid her another visit, and said
that she must have something else by which she
could rule the planets, and witness then gave her a
mantle and also another dress. Subsequently the
prisoner obtained a shawl from her, and upon an-
other occasion witness gave her two shawls. She
came four or five times, and upon each occasion she
represented that she required the clothes to rule the
planets. Witness saw nothing more of her until
the previous day, when she accidentally met her,
and gave her into custody.
The prisoner declared that she was not the per-
son, and that she had not been in London more
than nine months.
Police-constable Large, of the V division, said he
took the prisoner into custody in the Lansdowne-
road North, and she endeavoured four or five flints
to get her hands into her pocket, but he prevented
her. The female searcher afterwards found upon
the prisoner a portion of a pack of playing cards,
which were very dirty, and seemed to have been
well used.
The prisoner said it was not likely that if she
had obtained the things she would have gone into
the same neighbourhood.
Mr. Ingham asked the witness if she was sure
the prisoner was the woman.
The witness said she was positive of her identity.
Mr. Ingham then remanded her for inquiries to
be made.

THE LATE FATAL FIRE AT

GREENWICIL

At the Greenwich police-court yesterday Richard
Roper, corn chandler, was placed at the before Mr.
Traill, on a remanded charge of setting fire to his
dwelling-house at 8, Royal-hill, Greenwich, on the
morning of Sunday, the 12th Sept., with intent to
defraud tlie Kent Fire Insurance Company.

Mr. Scudamore, solicitor, and Mr. Leudon, secre-
tary to the Kent Fire Insurance Company, appeared
for the prosecution, and Mr. Ingle defended the
prisoner.
Miss Maria Harding, daughter of Mr. Harding,
oil and colour dealer, of London-street, Greenwich,
deposed that on Saturday, the 12th Sept., she was
employed behind the counter, and while at supper,
about 11 o'clock, a young woman came into the
shop, and witness went out and served her with a
half-pint of turpentine. Witness was unable to
identify the person whom she served.
The witness Elizabeth Waterfall was now re-
called, and immediately identified Miss Harding as
the person who served her with the turpentine.
Cross-examined by Mr. Ingle—l have been in the
habit of purchasing turpentine to clean my master's
furniture. I did not mix it up with other articles
to clean the stoves. I do not remember ever buying
more than three pennyworth at one time. We
cleaned the furniture about once in six weeks.
About two months before the fire we purchased
some stuff to get rid of bugs, and it created such an
unpleasant smell that all the furniture was after-
wards rubbed over with turpentine. Ido not re-
member that on the same day that I purchased the
turpentine my mistress said to me, " Now, you
must clean all the furniture and take up the
carpets on Sunday, as we shall remove all the goods
in a day or two.' When my master gave me the
bottle and 6d. to get the turpentine, he did not tell
me where to go for it.
Mr. Scudamore now stated that since the last
examination the Kent Firelnsurance Company had
taken measures to have a careful inspection of the
premises, by competent persons, with a view to
ascertain, if possible, the point at which fire broke
out, and the whole of the ruins had been carefully
sifted and examined ; he should call as witnesses on
this question two able and experienced firemen.
Thos. Smart deposed—l have been a fireman up-
wards of 20 years, and have been employed at va-
rious parts of the metropolis. I had charge of the
premises recently occupied by the prisoner, from
the 20th of Sept. A fireman named Lilley was in
charge of the premises immediately after the fire,
and I took the premises from Lilley. The ruins of
the fire had not been thoroughly examined until
during the last few days. On Thursday last, in
consequence of instructions from the insurance
company, I commenced sifting and examining the
rubbish, in order, if possible, to arrive at some clue
to the origin of the fire. After removing about two
feet of rubbish on Friday last, I went into the
cellar, and I then saw that the roof of the
cellar, which formed also the floor of the shop,
was much burnt, especially near the steps. The
remaining portion of the woodwork in the cellar
was more or less charred, but the portion near
the steps was entirely consumed. The cellar had
two entrances,—a trapdoor which opened at
the rear of the premises, and an entrance into the
shop by, means of wooden steps. The entrance to
the cellar from the shop was partially choked up
with rubbish, and I made a most minute examina-
tion of this spot. After carefully removing the top
rubbish, I found underneath a large quantity of
straw, which was fairly laid across the steps
lengthways from top to bottom of the steps. A por-
tion of the sides of the bottom steps was not con-
sumed, and the straw was plainly seen at this
point. It is my decided opinion that the fire broke
out on these steps and burnt rapidly upwards. I
form this opinion from my experience of fires and
the appearances presented. I should judge from the
remains that about four or five trusses of straw
must have been on the stairs.
By Mr. Traill—The woodwork of the uprights
in the cellar was charred the whole length. Had
the fire broken out in the shop and a second fire
been caused in the cellar by the fall of burning
materials it would not have caused the appearances
presented. The -whole of the woodwork in the
cellar presented the peculiar charred appearance
which leads me to believe that the fire must have
broken out from below and burnt upwards. (This
witness was cross-examined at some length by Mr.
Ingle without affecting his evidence.)
Mr. Henderson, foreman of the Southwark
bridge-road station of the London Fire Brigade,
deposed—l have been a fireman 39 years, and have
a very general knowledge of fires. I arrived at
Greenwich with an engine at 5 o'clock on the morn-
ing of the fire which took place on the prisoner's
premises. On Sunday and Monday, by direction of
the insurance company, I made a minute examina-
tion of the premises. On the remains of the steps
leading from the cellar to the shop I found four or
five separate lots of burnt straw, which were lying
as a truss of straw would be stood upright—that
is, from the top to :the bottom of the stairs. I
minutely examined the cellar, and it appeared to
me that the fire burnt up completely through the
roof. I have seen scores of fires which originated
from the cellar, and the appearances are unmis-
takeable. I feel as certain that this fire broke out
tear the cellar steps as if I had seen it break out.
Mr. Traill—Supposing the fire broke out in the
shop, and the falling embers set fire to the straw in
the cellar, would that have accounted for the ap-
pearances you saw ?
Witness—l am quite sure it would not.
Mr. Ingle—Are you aware that the shop had a
canvass roof ?
Witness—lf so, this description of roof does not
speedily burn on account of the large quantity of
paste which it contains.
Robert Morris, shopboy in the employ of the pri-
soner, was examined, and proved that on the Satur-
day before the fire he brought eight trusses of straw
from Deptford to the prisoner's shop. Before he
procured it there were about eight trusses on the
premises, -which would be an average stock. Straw
was sometimes placed in the cellar, but on the op-
posite side to the steps.
Mr.Traill said that after this evidence he should
have no hesitation in committing the prisoner for
trial on the charge of arson. The evidence now pro-
duced' cleared up that which was before to him a
mystery, for he could never believe that any
in
however bad, we-111d set such premises on fire in the
shop, as it would be certain destruction to the in-
mates of the house. The prisoner was remanded for
a week for the completion of the evidence.

CONVICTS AT WOKING.—The ceremony of laying
the first stone of the chapel of the new convict establish-
ment at Woking was performed on Tuesday by the Right
Hon. Spencer Walpole, Secretary of State for the Home
Department. The buildings, which are in a state of for-
wardness, occupy a healthful position near Knap-hill, about
a mile south-west of Woking station. Being designed for
invalids, they are partly divided into wards similar to those
of a hospital, and partly into single cells, which indicate
the presence of prison discipline. The class to be provided
for is that among which are found permanent invalids con-
fined to their beds, cripples, and others incapable of any
but the lightest kinds of employment. The arrangements
for all the necessary objects appear to have been made with
great care. This building is the more interesting from its
being the last that will be required for the final abolition
of the hulks. Mr. Walpole was attended by Col. Jebb, the
chairman, Capt. O'Brien and Copt. Gambier, directors of
prisons, and there were present on the ground General Sir
John Burgoyne, Rev. Charles Bowles, and others. After
a short and impressive prayer by Mr. Blathwayt, the future
chaplain of the establishment, the stone was lowered, and
the usual formalities completed.

With these marvellous remedies always at hand no sick
:person need despair of being cured ; they act in unison on
the absorbent system, giving tone and vigour to all the
functions of life. Their surprising sale in every part of the
civilised world is the most convincing proof that their vir-
tues have not been overrated. In cases of bad legs, old
wounds, scrofula, and diseases of the skin they are won-
derfully efficacious. Thousands of persons who suffered
from these dreadful maladies have been completely cured
by their use, after every other means had failed. There is
no case, however obstinate or of however long standing that

UNIVERSITY BEFO.RM AT CAMBRIDGE

, The opinions of the governing bodies of the Uni-
versity have been given on the propositions of the
Royal Commissioners. A meeting took place on
Tuesday in the Arts School, and had for its object
" the discussion of the draught statutes provided
'oy the Royal Commission for the proposed govern.
ance of the Colleges of Trinity and St. John's." ,
These statutes include propositions which it was 1
felt would in all probability be applied to the
remaining colleges in the event of the commissioners •
prevailing upon the authorities of the two colleges
above named to accept them. These statutes were
forwarded at the close of last term, and, though
they in many material points created a feeling
of dissatisfaction, there was no time for any course
permitting unity of action, and, accordingly, their
consideration was deferred until this day, when
near ly 250 members of the governing bodies assem-
bled_ under the presidency of the Vice-Chancellor
(the Rev. the Master of St. Catherine's). The meet-
ing lasted till past 5 o'clock, so that it is only pos-
sible to print the resolutions arrived it, which were
all carried by large, indeed overwhelming majo-
rities, though there was opposition to some of
them. The following is a copy of the requisition
under i which the meeting was convened :—" We,
the um lersigned members of the governing bodies
of colleges, within the meaning of the Cambridge
Univer 3ity Act (19 and 20 Vic., c. 88), having had
our attention called to certain draughts of statutes
which the University Commissioners contemplate
framii ig for the future administration and govern-
ment of Trinity and St. John's Colleges, and being
of opinion that these statutes involve changes which,
if aimlied to colleges in general, would be prejudi-
cie,i to them as places of learning and education, re-
spectfully request the Vice-Chancellor to convene a
meeting of the members of the several governing
bodies, for the purpose of considering such parts of
the said. draughts of statutes as affect all the col-
leges in common, and of taking such steps in rela-
tion thereto as may appear to the meeting to be
expedient."
The following resolutions were passed :
Proposed by the Master of Trinity College, and
seconded by Mr. Adams, of St. John's—" That the
system of electing to vacant fellowships (with oc-
casional exceptions) from among the members of
each college, having confessedly worked in a satis-
factory manner, it is inexpedient that the proposi-
tion of the Cambridge University Commissioners
for opening the fellowships in every college to com-
petition to all graduates of the university should be
adopted."
To which an amendment 'which was negatived)
was proposed by Mr. Pheard and seconded by Mr.
Liveing, "That this meeting, without expressing
an opinion of the proposed statute by which each
college is required to institute a special examina-
tion for fellowships, and to elect mainly according
to the result of such examination, desires to see all
statutable restrictions upon elections for fellowships
removed, and the practice of opening fellowships
to members of all colleges further extended."
Proposed by the Master of St. John's College,
and seconded by Professor Sedgwick— " That it is
inexpedient that the proposition of the Cambridge
University, Commissioners, providing that every
fellow shall vacate his fellowship at the end of ten
years, after attaining the full standing of M.A.,
except in certain specified cases, should be adopted."
Proposed by Mr. Todhunter, of St. John's, and
seconded by the Master of Jesus College (the Rev.
Dr. Corrie :)—"That any tax upon the distributable
income of colleges for university purposes, as pro-
posed by the-Cambridge University Commissioners,
would be highly objectionable."
Proposed by the Rev. T. T. Perowne, of Corpus
Christi College, and seconded by the Rev. G. Wil-
liams, of King's College :—" That this meeting,
having regard to certain proposals of the commis-
sioners affecting the religious character of the col-
leges, earnestly, deprecates any measure which
• would tend to impair the existing connexion be-
• sweep the colleges and the Church of England."
Proposed by the Rev. the Provost of. King's
College, and seconded by the Rev. Mr. Martin,
Bursar of Trinity College :—" That the Vice-Chan-
cellor be respectfully requested to send the resolu-
tions of this meeting to the Cambridge University
Commissioners."

A vote of thanks to the Vice-Chancellor, caried
by acclamation, concluded the proceedings.
