CUI?E FOR SERPENTS' BITES.

Last week Dr. Cloquet communicated to the
Academy of Sciences the following interesting letter
trotu Dr. do la Gironniere, a physician of Manilla
" In our virgin forests of Calanang," says M. de la
Gironniere, " a vast variety of serpents are found,
some of which are extremely venomous. A abort
time ago one of my labourers had his finger bitten
by one which is considered by the Indians to be of
the most dangerous kind. It is a small snake about
30 centimetres in length, of a yellow colour, with a
flat triangular head. Its fangs are 11 centimetres
(half an inch) in length. The man was brought to
me a few minutes after the accident. I had no
volatile alkali at hand, so I cauterized the wound
with burning coals ; but this did not stop the alarm-
ing symptoms which appeared with great rapidity.
The tumefaCtion had already extended from the
hand to the elbow. The patient uttered piercing
cries in consequence of the pain he felt under the
pectoral muscles ; I was at a loss what to do. At
length I was struck with the idea of making him
drink a bottle of coco wine (alcohol of 16 degrees
strength). The intoxicating effects were instan-
taneous ; the patient began to rave, but without
seeming to feel any pain, and the swelling of the
arm made no progress. Half an hour after he had
returned to his senses, the pectoral pains recom-
menced ; I administered a second bottle, and then
a third, which completed the cure; the arm returned
to its natural state, and the hand bore no traces of
the injury but those of the cauterization. I had
often heard it said that alcohol, taken in a sufficient
quantity to cause excessive intoxication, was a
specific against the sting of serpents; I now have a
proof of it, but I do not know whether it would do
in other cases, such as the following one :—Ao
Indian was bit by a very venomous serpent, of a
grey colour, with a round head, and sometimes fox
feet in length. It is the enemy of ail other ser-
pents, which it hunts down whether they be veno-
mous or not ; it has happened to me four times to
kill one while swallowing another serpent. This
Indian returned home, cauterized the wound him-
self, and a few minutes later fell dead without
complaining or evincing any suffering. His rela-
tions, who could not bolieve in so sudden a death,
brought him to me ; his limbs were still supple, but
cold; the wound bore traces of the cauterization,
but no sign of tumefaction."

THE NG OF YVETOT.—Yvetot is a little French
village co ill ,aining about a thousand inhabitants, situated on
the railway between Paris and Havre. The name Yvetot
is compos of two words—" Yve," or " Yvo" (probably
the same of ; Ives), a common German name, and " tot," the
Celtic wo. rd for a house or dwelling-place. Gaguin, a French
historian ( )1 the 16th century, says the origin of the king-
dom of 7 vet3t was contemporaneous with that of the
French IT u narchy ; that is to say, it was founded in the
reign of tl li 3 Merovingian king, Clotaire the First. . The
Kings of • Yvetot possessed all the prerogatives of
sovereign' ;y . They had a court of justice of
the higl 3t jurisdiction, which issued its deci-
sions wi th out app ml. In cases of minority they
could no.a. be enrolled in the noble guard of the
King of F r. Luce; they were not required to serve in the
army, nor ± o ply fealty and homage, nor any tax whatso-
ever; andp. in a word, they had no hierarchical superior.
A medal, ; still preserved from the old charter. house of
Yvetot, re p -esents Mai tin the First, son of Jean the Fourth,
sitting up m his throne—a sort of four-legged stool—with a
plain gold c rown upon his head, anal dressed in a coat of
mail fastel u d tight round the waist. He has long hair,
like all the., Merovingian kings, and is represented affec-
tionately e: nbracing one of his subjects named Bobe.

£B,OOO a year, would be the charge on the Metro-
politan Company, out of which was to be deducted
the charge of £6,000 a year for station land sold to
the Great Northern, thus adding but £2,000 a year
to their former liabilities, for which they would ob-
tain the use of a superior station at Finsbury-
pavement.
On a show of hands, 38 appeared in favour of the
bill and 9 against it. A poll was then taken, and
the result was that more than the required propor-
tion of capital required to carry the motion was
recorded in its favour.
A resolution was passed, leaving to the directors
to decide as to whether rents or tolls should be paid
by the four companies for the use of the Finsbury
extension line and station.
The solicitor then read the heads of a bill for
making a railway from the Great Western Rail-
way to Hammersmith, to be called " the Hammer-
smith and City Railway." It would bring traffic
on their line, and it was proposed that the Metro-
politan Company should work the traffic, on terms
to be hereafter decided at special meetings of the
respective companies.
A formal resolution approving the bill was car-
ried unanimously, and the proceedings terminated.

THE BANKRUPTCY BILL.

The LORD CHANCELLOR laid on the table the two
amendments he proposed making in the Bankruptcy and
Insolvent Bill. The notice of his amendments might
assist their lordships in their decision as to whether the
bill should or should not be referred to a select committee.
The other noble lords would give notice of any amendments
they might feel disposed to move.
Lord CHELMSFORD said, on the part of the
Earl of Derby, he would adopt the course proposed
at the earliest moment. He did not think he should be in
a position to do so before Tuesday next.

LEASES, &c., BY INCUMBENTS' RESTRICTION

BILL.

Lord LYT TELTON moved the second reading of this
bill, which was one for restricting benefice holders of eccle-
siastical corporations from making long leases of certain
lands, to the detriment of succeeding incumbents.
The Bisbop of LINCOLN suggested that in committee
certain amendments might be made which would mate-
rially improve the bill.

After a few words from the Marquis of BATH,
The bill was read a second time.
POST OFFICE SAVINGS BANKS BILL.

On the motion for going into committee on this bill,

Lord REDESDALE wished to know what provision
was made for the depositors ascertaining the state of their

accounts.

The Earl of EGLINTON and Lord MONTEAGLE :also
asked some questions relative t, the bill.
Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said it was proposcd
to send the books up from the country for comparison to the
central bank in London, and any depositor by
letter could know, if he wished, the exact state of
his account. With respect to the £lO clause for
transferring the accounts from existing savings banks to
the Post-office savings bank, or vice versa, it was in-
troduced for the convenience of the depositor, in
order t 3 save him the trouble of drawing his account
from one bank in order to place it in another. The accounts
would be kept precisely as the money order accounts.
Very little expense would be incurred in carrying the bill
into effect.

Lord REDESDALE was of opinion that the mode of
transference at present in operation ought not to be inter-
fer,tel with. He thought when the bill became generally
known it would be greatly ()Fleeted to.
After a fe\v observations from the Marquis of CLAN
RICARDE, the house went into committee on the bill.
Clauses from 1 to 6 were agreed to.
On clause 7 being proposed,

A NOBLE LORD asked the reason for fixing the inte-
rest at £2 lOs ?

Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said it was so set
down in order to prevent coming into competition wit i the
existing savings banks. Ti e rate of iuterest iu public
:savings banks was £2 18s.
This and the remaining clauses were agreed to without
amendment.
The bill was ordered to to read a third time on Monday.
The Bills of Exchange and Promissory Nctes (Ireland)
Bill was road a second time.
Their lordships then adjourned.

A meeting of some of the leading Greek firms
was held in London yesterday afternoon, and it is said that
two persons have been sent to confer with the Bank of

this side, and, should satisfactory accounts be received from
Constantinople, there is a probability that all may go well.
As regards the Greek firms generally, much confidence is
felt in the soundness of their position, and this view is

LEEDS, BRADFORD, AND HALIFAX

JUNCTION.
Yesterday a Wharncliffe meeting of this corn
pany was held at Bradford for the purpose of con,
sidering a bill to authorise the company to construct
a branch railway to the Birstal line at Batley. Mr.
E. Ackroyd presided.
Mr. NELSON, the company's solicitor, stated that
the bill would authorise the company to raise
£60,000 on shares and X 15,000 on debentures. The
time for the compulsory purchase of land was
limited to two years, and for the completion of the
works to three years.
The CHAIRMAN said the bill was in reference to
the company's Batley and Adwalton scheme, and
the arguments he advanced in favour of it at their
last meeting had been materially strengthened by
the evidence adduced in the House of Commons.
Independent of any passenger traffic, the scheme
might be justified by the large coal traffic which it
opened up in the district of which Bradford was
the entire centre, He concluded by moving a for-
mal resolution approving the bill.
Mr. WATERHOUSE seconded the motion, and it
was unanimously agreed to.
The proceedings then terminated with a vote of
thanks to the Chairman.

LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE.
At a Wharncliffe meeting of this company, held
at Manchester yesterday, there was a motion that
the bills for the construction of the Settle and
Shawforth lines be rejected. The motion, on a poll
being taken, was carried.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKEL

To• day's inarket was but molerately supplied with
beasts ; nevertheless all kinds mood off slowly, and prices
;
were barely supported. Prime siaep were scarce, and in
good request, at full currencies
otherwise the mutton
trade was very inactive, at late rates. Good and prime
lambs sold briskly, at an improvement in value of 4d per
per 81bs. Inferior lambs were a slow inquiry. Calves, the
supply of which was limited, wee in good request, at an
improvement in value of 2d per 81bs. Pigs and mulch
cows were tolerably firm in price.

TREASURE TROVE.

Sir J. C. JERVOISE asked the Secretary of State for
the Home Department when the notice would be circulated
which, on the 9th of January last, it was stated would pro-
bably be shortly issued, in regard to treasure trove, giving
the public full information on the subject ; and whether it
was intended to force the claim of the Crown to ancient
coins, gold or silver ornaments, and objects of antiquity
found in England and Wales, as part of the Royal
revenue.

Sir G. C. LEWIS explained that the Treasury was in
the habit of purchasing gold coins and giving the value of
them in bullion when they were of value as objects of an-
tiquity. They were melted down in the Mint, and the
Treasury made no profit whatever out of these coins.
A VSTRIAN OCCUPATION OF VENETIA.

In reply to Mr. GRIFFITHS,
Lord J. RUSSELL said that there were at present 3,000
troops of the late Duke of Modena, but the Government
was in possession of inform..tion to the effect that there was
no aggressive movement contemplated in Italy on the part
of Austria.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—( This Day.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CURIOUS CASE OF CHILD DESERTION.—AN Uxcom-
MON "PLEDGE."—Susannah Renno was charged with
deserting her illegitimate child, Amelia Renno, aged 11
months, by leaving it at the shop of Mr. Fleming, pawn-
broker, St. Martin's-lane.

Brennan, the porter of St. Martin's Workhouse, said the
prisoner was discharged on the 18th of this month at her
own request, and she afterwards came back and wanted to
be re-admitted, but was told that the case must go before
the board. She then went away and left her child at Mr.
Fleming's, the pawnbroker's, in St. Martin's-lane.
Mr. Bowman, relieving officer of St. Martin's, said there
were no witnesses from the pawnbroker's present.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said that they must attend. He could not
take hearsay evidence in parish cases any moro than in
others. _ _

George Hone, assistant to Mr. Flaming, pawnbroker, St.
Martin's-lane, having been sent for, said that on Tuesday
last hearing a child crying he went round and found a child
in one of the boxes. It was afterwards taken to the work-
house.

Sergeant Ward, 290 A, said prisoner came up to him last
night and said she wanted to give herself up for leaving her
child in a box at the pawnbroker's. She also said that she
had been very unhappy ever since. . _ _

The prisoner said she had nowhere to go with the child
and no shelter, and in her agitation she put the child in the
box (the prisoner seemed very affected).

Mr. Bowman said that she was to have been a casual till
last Monday, and then she would have been admitted to
the house.

Mr. Tyrwhitt committed her for seven days.
A HARD CASH.—A poor woman, with three little child-
ren, applied to know what she was to do. She had been
to St. Martin's Workhouse, and they admitted her last
night, and this morning she was turned out with het
children, a pioce of bread only being given to her on her
leaving. _ _ _

Mr. Bowman, relieving officer, said she was now receiv-
ing casual relief, and she could go before the board next
Monday.

Applicant—l always thought the workhouse to be for
the poor. What am Ito do all day. I can't go back till
night, and they have only given me this piece of bread for
me and my three children.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said he could do nothing for her.

The applicant, who of course has to wander about the
streets all day, her only support for her and her children
being a piece of bread she had in her hand, certainly less
than a pound in weight, then left the court, complaining
sadly.

don to the tonnage of their ships, and the number then rose
at one time to 11,000 a year. Since the repeal of that law
it has ranged between 5,000 and 8,000 a year, and in the
last three years it has averaged 5,655,

THE PRICE OF GOLD.

The quotation of gold at Paris is abour3 per mine prem. I
and the short exchange on London is 25.35 per Ll sterling.
'
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
4-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills .at
00 days' sight is 1054 to 106 per cent., which, when compared
with the Mintxch par between the two countries, shows that the
ange is against England. But, after making allowance
exchange
loss
of interest and charges of transport, the present
rate
leaves little; if any, profit on sending gold to the 'United
States.

The following is the order of the day above al-
luded to :

"Officers, Sub-Officers, and Soldiers—On this
day two years the great battle of Solferino and of
San Martino was fought on the predestined banks
of the Mincio. That memorable day, in which
the Piedmontese army rivalled in courage that of
our powerful and generous ally, decided the desti-
nies of Italy. His Majesty wishes that the anni-
versary of that happy event should be solemnly
celebrated, which now bears the glorious title of the
Italian Army. It is on you that falls the
duty of following up what still remains to be done
to consolidate the union of so many people of the
same land arbitrarily kept divided for so many
centuries. The King of Italy confides in your bra-
very, in your patriotism, and in the enthusiasm
which the remembrance of past victories will give
you for the achievement of fresh laurels. Long live
the King ! Long live the country ! Italy for
ever !"

The Thrin Gazette announces that the Bourbo,
nians have attacked and sacked Bojano and Castel

Pezzato.
