EXTENSIVE CIRCULATION OF BASE COIN BY LASCARS.
—Omar, a Lascar, who has lately deserted a ship from
the East Indies, and become a mendicant and utterer of
base coin, was brought before Mr. Yardley charged with
passing several pieces of bad money.
Sophia Thomas, an elderly woman, stated that she
was a vendor of fruit, and kept a stall in the street.
Last night the prisoner came to her and bought a half-
penny apple, for which he tendered, in payment, a shil-
ling, which elle discovered to be a counterfeit one, and
returned it to him. He expressed his surprise, and said
he had received it of a man in the bar of a public-house
opposite. She advised hies to go back with it, and he
went away and returned in a few minutes, and selected a
halfpenny apple for which he tendered a sixpence, which
she put into her purse believing it to be a good one, and
asked him what he had done with the base shilling, and
he said he had got rid of it at the public-house. She
said that a good job, and gave him change for the six-
pence. He then left her and returned to her a third time
and bought another halfpenny apple, and tendered in
payment a fourpenny piece which she also put in her
purse, and gave him 3&d. in change. Some afterwardr,
in consequence of what a man said to her, she looked at
the sixpence and fourpenny piece, and found both to be
counterfeit. She had no silver in her purse at all.
Catherine Lawless said the prisoner came to her yes-
terday morning and purchased a halfpenny apple for
which he tendered in payment a fourpenny piece, and
'ka gave him 34d in change. Soon afterwards see dis-
covered the piece to be counterfeit.

THE NEW MAIL COMMUNICATION
WITH INDIA.

(Front the Daily News.)

•
According to the new reguhtions for the improved
mail communication with India mails will be made up
in the General Post-office for Bombay, via Marseilleg,
on the 2d and 17th of the month ; and for Calcutta,
via Marseilles, on the 9th and 25th of the month.
The packet will leave Bombay with mails for London,
via Marseilles, on the 9th and 24th of the month ;
and front Calcutta with mails for London, via Mar-
seilles, on the Bth and 221 of the month. The Medi-
terranean packets will leave Alexandria tar Mar-
seilles with the Indian mails, on the 7th, 11th, 22d,
and 27th of the month ; and arrive at Marseilles on the
2d, 12th, 16th, and 27th, and such mails will reach Lon-
don on the 4th, 14th, 18th, and 29th of the month. The
mail will reach Bombay from London, via Marseilles, in
26 days; and Calcutta from London, via Marseilles, in
36 days. Nearly the same periods of time respectively
will be occupied in the mails reaching London, via Mar-
sedles, from Bombay and Calcutta. The new arrange-
ments will commence at Bombay on the 24th proximo.
The Calcutqa packets will touch at IZidgeree on the
homeward passage. There can be no doubt that the
Trieste steamers will run in connection with each arrival
at Alexandria, and according to the present lope, d of
those steams, we should get telegrams of Indian news
from Trieste on the Ist, 12th,
_l6th, and 27th of the

Joseph.C;ttenhall, a costermonger, said the prisoner
was pa►sing base coin on Sunday night last, and two
foreign counterfeit pieces were taken from him an i
broken up. Last night he saw the prisoner again, fol-
lowed him, and gave him in custody.
Roche, the gaoler of the court, said that several Las-
cars had been recently charged with passi,,g bad money
in the district, and one had lately been committed for
trial.

month. But as the telegrams of Inuian news, rza Mar-
seilles, will reach us on the 2tl, 12th, 16,h, and 27th, tue
former telegrams will often be superseded unless the
speed of the Trieste boats is improved.
When the telegraphic como.unication between Cal-

Inspector Cr&fin, of the K division, said that many
La:.csrs had been charged at nearly every police court
in the metropolis, and they were dismissed by the magi-
strates, who believed they were imposed upon, or made
the tools of others.

cotta, Madras, and Bombay, is uninterrupted, we shah
have telegraphic news from all parts of India by every
arrival at Marseilles, that is tour times a month—viz.,
on the 2d, 12th, 16th, and 27th of the month, as before
stated. This news will be alternately 24 and 34 days of 1.
The only additional work which will devolve on
the Peninsular and Oriental Compa. y in consequence
of this modification of their contract, will be the
running of a steamer to and from Alexandria and Mar-
seilles, via Malta four times a month instead of twice,
and the calling at Kidgeree from Calcutta. Accord-
in,!; to the old contract the packets left Bombay on the
3 1 and 17th of the month, and Calcutta on the 10th and
24th of the month. It was arranged for the 31 and 24th
boats to arrive together at Satz, and for the 10th aid
17th boats to arrive that port also at the seine time.
Calcutta being nearly 2,000 miles farther from Satz
khan Bombay, this difference of time in leaving the two
Indian ports was absolutely necessary in order to time
the two packets together at Suez. But to carry out the

Mr. Yardley—l am of a different opinion. The Lag
care know what they are about. They display more
acuteness than appears. Let the prisoner be remanded
until Tuesday.

COMMUNICATION BETWEEN LONDON AND
DUBLIN.

DUBLIN, THURSDAY.
In the report re id yeste, day at the half-yearly
meeting of the City of Dublin Steampacket Com-
pany the following pass ages occur in reference
the promised improveinent in the pa•s iga and pas-
senger communication het ween Loudon and Dublin
via Holyhead :
" There are to be two mails daily—one in the morn-

ing, and one in the evening—in each direction ; the
morning departure from London to be half-past seven,
and from Kingstown seven o'clock ; the night departure
from London half-past eight, and from Kingstown half-
oast seven. Toe entire distance to be accomplished in
11 hours as a maximum, subject to the penalty of 344.
for each minute's delay ; but such penalty not to be
incurred for fogs or other causes certified as be-
yond the control of the companies. Four large packets,
at least 300 feet in length, and with 600 horses power
each, to be built for the service. Special express
trains for the Irish mails and passenger traffic to run
between Holyhead and London in connection with
these packets. The contract to be for 14 years from its
commencement, which is to take place within two years,
subject to a power of Government of putting an end
to it after the first five years, if they have reason to be
dissatisfied with the manner in which it is generally
performed, in which ease they will purchase the ships at
cost price. The revenue of the new service, including
passenger receipts, will commence at 120,0001. a-year,
and half of the increase of the future traffic to belong to
the company ; the other half to go in reduction of the
contract payment.
"The directors are aware of but two drawbacks to
the satisfaction which the announcement of the improved
service will produce in the public mind. The first is
the very early hour which has been appointed by
the Post-office, solely with reference to the exigencies
of that department, for the morning departures from
Kingstown and from London. The board of the
London and North-Western Company were so much
impressed with the desire to provide for the con-
venience of the travelling public that they have
engaged to reduce their charge for running the special
trains 10,0001. annually, provided the times of the morn-
ing departure be made an hour later—that is eight
o'clock from Kingstown, instead of 7, and half-past 8
tii
from London, instei of 7. This_very large reduction,

new arrangements and bring the Bombay and Calcutta
packets to Suez at different times, it is necessary to de-
spatch the packets from the two Indian ports almost at
the came time. Thus, instead of leaving Bombay or
Calcutta on the 3d, 10th, 17th, and 24th of the month,
as has hitherto been the case, by which a week inter-
venes conveniently between each departure, the packets
will for the future have to leave Bombay or Calcutta on
the Bth, 9t,h, 22d, avid 24. h of the month, as has been
before observed. Now, these are certainly not such
convenient times for departure from the Indian ports as
the former ones, especially considering that Calcutta ca❑
be united by telegraph to Bombay ; but there is no help
for it. A disadvantage of the old plan was that the
packets, owing to the length of the sea route, the differ-
ence in the speed of the steamers, and casualties, scarcely
ever arrived at Suez together ; and then one mail was
kept waiting for the other at Alexandria. The advantage
of the new plan is that as soon as a mail arrives
at Alexandria, no matter whether it is from Bombay
or Calcutta, it will be sent off immediately to Mar-
seille,. It will he seen from the above statement that
there will be only two mail packets a mouth to and from
Suez and Bombay ; and two to and from Suez and Cal-
cutta the same as at present. There will also be only
two communications a month for the present to and from
Southampton and Alexandria, and to and from Point de
Galls and Hong Kong. The following are the mail
route tablas, according to the new arrangements, viz.:

may be hoped, will induce the Poet-office auch,ritiee,
o entertain more favourably the desire for such a change.
" The second ma ter, ac caueitn some degree of dis-
appointment, was the announcement in the House of
Commons that the new service would net commence fur
two years. The directors of the company have commu-
nicated to Government that they will be quite prepared
with the new vessels early in the summer of 1859, so
that if the temporary landing pier at Holyhead is
ready by that time for the use the arrangements
may then be commenced ; and they have further
communicated that iu the meantime some very consider-
able measures of improvement for the accommodation of
the public could be adopted pending the completion of
arrangements for the new service. The directors' report
concludes by recommending the paymant of a dividend
of 24 per cent, free of income-tax out of the profits of the
half-year, after the allocation of 1 per cent. on the paid-
up capital, as required by the Company's Act of Par-
liament, and which has been invested in Government
I stock."

COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.

At a court yesterday, on the motion of Mr. Deputy
Aitchison, thanks were given to the late Lord Mayor,
Mr. Alderman Finnis, for the performance of his office
during the year, and especially " for his great atten-
tion to the comforts of the poor, in alleviating
their wants and visiting the several establish-
ments for their reception ; for his desire to ad-
vance civilisation in promoting the communication
with the interior of Africa; for his dignified mainten-
ance of the ancient hospitality at the Mansion-house;
for
his kind and benevolent assistance to tee charitable in-
stitutions of this City ; for originating the Indian Relief
Fund for alleviating the necessities eif the sufferers by
the murderous revolt of the Sepoys ; and for his im-
partiality, urbanity, and intelligence whilst presiding
over the deliberations of this court. _

A. communication from-the Court of Aldermen was re-
ceived, with a note from the Home Secretary, urging the
corporation to proceed with the erection of a Lunatic
Asylum for the pauper lunatics of the parishes in the City
of London ; upon which Deputy Harrison moved that it
be referred to the finance committee, to report on the
probable cost, and to the funds of which this should be
defrayed.—Mr. H. L. Taylor, as an amendment, moved
"That this court is of opinion that the duty of provid-
ing for the pauper lunatics is cast by the act of parlia-
ment upon visiting justices, and that they ought
to proceed to raise the funds in the manner pointed
out by the act by means of a county rate."—Mr. Ander-
ton seconded. The amendment, alter some discussion,
was negatived by a large majority.—Mr. Blake moved
as a second amendment the addition of the following
words to the motion, " And report their opinion as
to the expediency of erecting an asylum for the luna-
tics of this city, or whether it would be more advan-
tageous to provide otherwise for them, and in the event
of their deeming it indispensable that an asylum should
be erected, to consider and report the probable cost,
and the source from which the necessary funds should
be raised." A discussion ensued, at the end of which
the amendment was lost, and the original motion was
carried.

A report was presented from the committee upon the
vacant piece of ground adjoining St. Paul's Cathedral,
to the effect that as the Metropolitan Board of Works
had declined to contribute auy gum in aid of the pro-
posed enlargement of the open space, they recommended
the corporation to give notices for disposing of the
ground. Alderman Rose strongly objected to any build•
inge upon this piece of land, whic:i should be left open
for the view it afforded of the architectural beauties of
the cathedral. The court adjourned without passing any
resolution upon it.

How THE WIOTOWN BURGHS WERE REPRESENTED A
QUARTER OF A CENTURY A 00.—On Friday last the
friends and political admirers of Sir John M'Taggart,
late M.P. for the Wigtowre Burghs, entertained him at
dinner at Stranraer, and also presented him with a
piece of plate. Vi-count Dalrymple was in the chair.
In returning thanks, Sir J. M`Taggart said—Perhaps
you will allow me to say one word in regard to the state
of this country when I came forward in 1832. Stranraer
had net seen its member for half a century, and I don't
believe the member for the county had been seen in this
district for the same period of time. As a proof of the
state of things then existing in the country, we were
beaten in the cooteA in 1832. On looking around me
I see, alai, very few of those wh e then supported me,
but still I observe several who signed the requisition to
me in that year. It was in 1834 sand 1835 that I was
first returned for these burghs, and to show you how
they were represented before that time, I will tell
yflu what took place between myself and an
Irish gentleman—a Mr. Lyndon Evelyn, who met me
in Loudon a few days after my return. Be said he was
very glad to see that I bad been returned for the Strati-
raer Burghs, and then asked, "Pray, in what part of
Scotland are tbey 1" "In the south-Kest," I said, "Oh
yes," he returned, "in the south-west of Scotland. The
fact is, I represented these burghs once myself, but I
never knew in what part of Scotland they were. I paid
2,5001. to be elected, but I did not know in what part of
Scotland my seat lay. (Loud laughter.)
