" ACCRA.—A slight improvement had taken place in
trade, and the colony was healthy. The late disturbances
had been completely quelled.
" CAPE COAST CASTLE.—Trade was slightly better, and
the colony was healthy,
" CAPE PALINAS.—The Royal Mail steamer Ethiope
arrived at 9 a.m. on the 16th of October, all on board well,
and sailed for leeward at 3 p.m. The Lizzie Dramfield, of
Liverpool, from Fernando Po, was in the roads. The ship
Pomona, of Liverpool, for Bonny, was off Cavally on the
3d of October, 43 days out.
" IvritunsT.—The yellow fever had quite disappeared,
and the colony was healthy, but trade was dull. The new
Governor, Col. D' Arcy, was busily engaged in improving the
sanitary condition of the colony.
" GOREE.—It was ascertained that the yellow fever had
visited the colony, and that several of the French colonists
had been carried off by it.
" TENERIFFE.—Iier Majesty's ship Topaa arrived on the
25th of October, and sailed on the 26th for Vancouver's
Island. Her Majesty's ship Renard, en route to China, had
arrived.

" 31inEinA.—The weather was fine, though it had been
so bad for several days previously as to prevent steamers
from coaling. The Royal Mail steamer Armenian was put
in quarantine against the remonstrances of her captain, who
produced clean bills of health from all other ports. The
passengers on board strongly protested against the absurdity
of the Portuguese quarantine regulations, which ought not
to be tolerated by the British Government, particularly as
the island is supported principally by the English.
" It having been reported on the coast that the steamers
Rainbow and Sunbeam had been attacked by the natives.
and that the latter vessel had been captured and the cap-
tain killed, &e., Mr. Stewart, the purser of the Armenian,
made every inquiry of the traders, &0., at Brass, and the
report current among them was that, as the Sunbeam was
ascending the river in a very narrow part she was fired into
by the natives ; the captain (Wylde) ordered all hands be-
low, and remained alone, excepting the helmsman, on deck,
and that ho had been wounded in the thigh. It could not
be ascertained whether the steamer ascended or descended
the river after the attack."

THAMES.

STRIPPING A SAILOR.—Jane Thomas, aged 27, of 17,
Frederick-street, St. George-in-the-East, and Joseph
Drake, cab-driver, of 7, John-street, Whitechapel, wear-
ing the badge 12,104, and driving the cab No. 3,365, were
brought before Mr. Yardley charged with stealing a mon-
key-jacket and one pair of sea boots, value £1 108., the
property of Richard Tuston, a seaman.

The case underwent a longinvestigation yesterday, when
the cab-driver was released on bail, and was resumed this
afternoon. The prisoners wore in the shop of Mr. Hawes,
a pawnbroker, in High-street, Shadwell, and the woman
was offering a jacket and a pair of boots in pledge. The
sailor, Turton, was in Drake's cab, dead drunk, without
his coat and boots.

Hughes, a police-sergeant, No. 30 K, thought there was
something wrong, and took the prisoners into custody.
Thomas Burr, nephew to Mr. Cooke, a publican, was
called for the first time, and said—" The woman Thomas
same to our house yesterday (Thursday) morning. I don't
know how she got his coat and boots. The woman paid for
the drink."

The sailor was examined. He was so drunk yesterday
that he had to be carried into the witness-box, and Mr.
Yardley directed that he should be removed from the court
immediately. He now said that he was so drunk yesterday
he had no recollection of what took place. He had 10s.
when he was sober, and did not know what became of it.
Mr. Yardley—Do you recollect being in the company of
that woman ?

Witness—No, I do not.
Mr. Yardley—Have you a ship P

Witness—Yes, cir. I have signed articles at £2 7s. 6d.
per month, and my ship is going away this day at twelve
o'clock.

Mr. Yardley—lt is past that hour now ; make a start at
once, proceed to the West India Dock, and join your ship;
take your coat and boots with you, speak to no one, go on
board and do your duty.
Drake was then ordered to leave the lock, and was sworx
as a witness. He said that the woman Thomas called him
off the cab-rank to take up the sailor yesterday morning in
High-street, Shadwell, and he was not aware the coat and
boots ware stolen.

Mr. Yardley was disposed to believe the cabman, and
now he had given his evidence he might leave the court.
The woman Thomas was a notorious thief, the worst in the
district, and had been often convicted. He convicted the
prisoner of unlawful possession of the jacket and boots, and
sentenced her to two months' imprisonment and hard labour.

FATAL SIMPW.RECK.

On Monday last the Austrian barque Tyrol went
aground on Little Burbo bank, a short distance
from the Cheshire coast, and became a complete
wreck, all the hands, together:with a Liverpool
pilot, having perished. The vessel had come from
Salina with wheat, &c., bound for Liverpool. The
vessel was first observed about half-past two in the
afternoon. At that time there was a moderately
stiff breeee, and it was thought that as the tide
flowed the ship would float off. This supposition,
however, turned out to be fallacious. The wind
increased with the tide, and the sea made a com-
plete breach over the ship, thus rendering her
position one of imminent danger. When first
seen it was ascertained that she bore the flag
indicating there was a pilot on board. Shortly
before dusk signals of distress were observed by per-
sons on the shore, and intelligence was immediately
conveyed to the Magazine's Lifeboat Station, with
a view that assistance might be afforded to those
on board the ship. It is stated that on the message
being communicated to the keeper of the lifeboat
he stated that his boat, not being seaworthy, could
not be put to sea, but that if he could have the
loan of the Liverpool boat he and his crew would
go to the relief of the wrecked ship ; that the ap-
plication for the Liverpool boat was not complied
with, and that under these circumstances, the
Magazine's boat being unfit for service, no attempt
was made to rescue the unfortunate crew. During
this time the wind increased in violence, and the
tide was flowing rapidly. As wave after wave
rolled furiously over the vessel the hull became less
visible, and when last observed, which was just
before dark, the crew had sought shelter in the
rigging some guns were fired and blue lig4s ex-
hibited, in order to indicate the position of the
vessel, and that she was in distress ; but, from the
causes previously referred to, no assistance reached
the unfortunate sufferers. During the night a
heavy sea prevailed, but hopes were still entertained
that the crew might hold out until morning, when
an attempt would be made to relieve them. These
faint anticipations were, however, not realised. The
conduct of the crews of the two lifeboats mentioned
has been made the subject of investigation by the
Dock Committee, who have acquitted them of
blame. It appears that both the lifeboats in ques-
tion were towed out by a steamer, which unfor-
tunately sprang a leak, and had to abandon them.
The lifeboats remained abourthe wreck till after
dark ; but the crews were unable to board the bark,
in consequence of the peculiar position in which she
was lying.

BRISTOL.

The artillery corps for this city, which was ini-
tiated by a public meeting on Monday, is pro-

tained that the 300 volunteers required previous
to embodiment by Government will be speedily
enrolled. The names of upwards of a third of that
number have already been received.

TUSCANY.

On Friday last Colonel Bethlen, the Hungarian
in command of the Hussars of Piacenza, assembled
his newly-recruited men on the square of the Pilotta
at Parma, and there addressed them in a very clever
and impressive, thoroughly soldier-like speech. He
reminded the soldiers that in the years 1848-9 many
Italians fought under Gorgey and Klapka in the
Hungarian ranks, in the common cause of national
independence against Austrian tyranny; he said it
was now their turn (his, the Colonel's, and that of
several other officers commanding the same corps)
to requite the Italians, by giving their life for
the cause of Italy. He told them that every vic-
tory obtained in behalf of their country was equally,
a triumph for his own Fatherland ; and that, there-
fore, they should look upon him and uuon his coun-
trymen in their ranks as not only comrades but
brethren. Most assuredly Austria has to struggle
against difficulties which no foresight on her part
could obviate—difficulties of „her own creation.
The very perfection of her military organisa-
tion turns against her. The Italians never, by
their unaided efforts, could have succeeded in
giving any body of cavalry such a rapid and effi-
cient organisation as those 1,200 Piedmontese Hus-
sars are sure to receive at the hands of these Hun-
garian exiles—men whose consummate ability and
thorough experience will be stirred to the utmost
exertion by their hatred of their country's oppres-
sors and their zeal for that Italian emancipation
which they look upon as the prologue of that Eu-
ropean drama which they think must lead to their
own enfranchisement.

GLASGOW.

On Wednesday evening a meeting of persons en-
gaged in the iron trades of Glasgow was held in the
Trades-hall for the formation of a company of vo-
lunteer artillerymen. The attendance was numer-
ous, and an enthusiastic spirit pervaded the meeting.
It was unanimously agreed to form an "Engineers'
Artillery Compahy," and a committee was appointed
to conduct the initiatory arrangements. As pre-
viously reported, a company of Volunteer Rifles is
now being formed under the auspices of the
Glasgow Stock Exchange and Institute of Account-
ants, and these two incorporations have given the
company a tangible support, the former by a dona-
tion of £l5O and the latter £loo—good examples

LATEST NEWS.

The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office

TURIN, Nov. 10.

The King Victor Emmanuel, in consequence of a
very urgent representation received from the
French Government, has refused to grant permis-
sion to the Prince de Carignan to accept the re-
gency of Central Italy, which has been offered to
him.

PARIS, Nov. 11.

The Moniteur of to-day publishes a circular
issued on the sth November last by Count
Walewski, Minister of Foreign Affairs, to the
diplomatic agents of the French Government abroad,
explaining the advantage of the different clauses of
the treaty of peace signed at Zurich, and stating
that France will not have to advance the amount
of the debt due by Piedmont to Austria, but will
co-operate with Piedmont in making the stipulated
payment, by certain arrangements which have been
agreed upon between France and Sardinia. France
has demanded from Sardinia the payment of sixty
millions for the expenses of the late war.

The circular further announces that the Govern-
ment of France had received assurances that the
Pope was only waiting an opportune moment to
make public certain reforms by which the Govern-
ment of the clergy would be replaced by a Govern-
ment generally composed of the laity, and which
should give to the country better guarantees for
the administration of justice, and for the control of
the public finances, by means of an Assembly
elected by the people.
The Moniteur of to-day confirms the news of the
signature of the three treaties, and adds that the
Governments of France and Austria have agreed to
promote the meeting of a Congress which will re-
ceive communication of the treaties of Zurich, and
delibert to on the means most adapted to establish
the pacification of Italy on solid and durable bases

summons in this case, and that there was no occa-
sion to take the man into custody and lock him up.
If there was one thing in which England stood pre-
eminent above all other nations of Europe, it was
her tender regard for the liberty of the subject and
the Habeas Corpus Act. That inestimable privi-
lege, the writ of habeas corpus, was enjoyed by no
other counery except America. He was of opinion
persons were too often arrested by the police on

light grounds, when a summons for the party to
appear would be sufficient. He would not allow
any man or woman to be imprisoned before trial
if bail could be forthcoming for their appear-
ance. He had every reliance on the de-
fence. The prisoner made his defence
promptly, although he was not in custody until
ten o'clock that
_morning. He would auk what

time the man had to concoct a fictitious defence—
none at all. If the two lads had given their evi-
dence correctly, the' girl Blackford was not to be
believed at all. There was another point of some
importance in this case. A decent, well-behaved
girl, who wished to maintain her reputation, would
not have answered as the complainant admitted
sbe had done when addressed by the prisoner
unless she wished to encourage his advances. The
case was not of that importance to justify him in
saying so much if there had not been a great dif-
ference of opinion between him and his colleague,
Mr. SeVe, about taking persons into custody for
grave offences instead of issuing summonses. This
was one of those cases in which he thought the
man ought to have been called upon to answer the
charge against him by summons. There would
have been no failure of justice if the girl had been
referred to that court for a summons. It was only
an accident that the man was not taken into cus-
tody on Wednesday night instead of that morning.
Although the police cells were pretty comfortable
and well ventilated, it was not a trifling matter to
be locked up all night, and not a slight matter to
deprive a man of his liberty at all. He should not
like, as far as he was himself concerned, to be taken
through the streets in the custody of a policeman.
Too much.care and caution could not be used before
a man was deprived of his liberty. The result of
13 years' experience as a magistrate convinced him
that the liberty of the subject was too lightly re-
garded, and that no harm would result if the prac-
tice he had recommended of applying for sum-
monses was adopted. In this case he had no
hesitation in saying the prisoner ought not to have
been taken into custody, and that the woman
should have been directed to apply for a summons.

The prisoner must be discharged.
Inspector Griffin—l will make known to all the
inspectors what you have said, and your views, sir.
Mr. Yardley—Unfortunately there is a difference
of opinion between my colleague and myself, and I
can't attach any blame to the inspector who took
the charge.

CORN EXCHANGE.

A fair quantity of English wheat has come to hand coast-
wise, this week; but the receipts by land-carriage, fresh
up, to-day, were limited. The show of samples, both from
Essex and Kent, was small, and the demand for good and
fine parcels ruled steady, at very low prices, to, in some in-
stances, a slight advance. When compared with last week
other descriptions sold somewhat slowly, yet the quotations
were well supported.
We had a fair inquiry for fine dry foreign wheat, at ex-
treme currencies. Low and damp parcels changed hands
slowly, on former terms.
Floating cargoes of grain, off Falmouth, were steady in
price. a
There was an active inquiry for malting barley—the sup-
ply of which was limited—at full quotations. Grinding
and distilling sorts supported previous rates.
Malt realised full currencies, with a fair demand.
We had a good consumptive inquiry for oats, mud prices
had an upward tendency.
Beans, peas, and flour were firm, but not dearer,

THE UNITED STATES' GOVERNMENT.—On Wed•
nesday Captain Petrie, of the steamship City of Washing-
ton, was presented with a handsome gold chronometer and
chain for services rendered by him at sea to the crew of the
American ship Groyoak, which sprung a leak in March last
and was abandoned at sea. The crew, as well as the cap-
tain's daughters, were obliged to take to the boats, and were
picked up by Captain Petrie, who treated them with the
greatest kindness. The chronometer bore a suitable in-
scription, stating it was presented by the President of the
United States for humanity to shipwrecked seamen.
A CHILD KILLED BY DRINKING HOT TEA.—An
inquest was held at Wakefield on Tuesday, on the body of
a little girl named Alice Goldthorpe. Last Saturday after-
noon, Mrs. Goldthorpe, the child's mother, had "mashed"
some tea, and put the teapot on the kitchen table. While
the mother's hack was turned, the girl got hold of the tea-
pot spout, and drank a quantity of the boiling hot liquid.
She was terribly scalded, her throat was soon afterwards
swollen up, and she died in convulsions. A verdict of "Ac-
cidentally scalded " was returned.
THE TIMBER FLEET.—The first Clyde vessels of
the Fall Fleet have arrived at Greenock, and during the last
few days the Lord Sidmouth, Canada, and John Bunyan,
have come into the river. All have experienced frightful
weather, and the master of the latter, which encountered
several cyclones, reports that he never met with such awful
storms on the Atlantic. Up to the present date a couple of
the outward bound Quebec fleet have put back to Britain,
and the timber shipments will be proportionately diminished.
By last accounts, shipping to the amount of 50,000 tons wag
expected in the St. Lawrence front glie country,--Greenock
idcfvertiser.

BURNHAM (SOMERSET).

A well attended meeting was held at the Clarence
Hotel, Burnham, on Wednesday evening, for the
purpose of forming a rifle corps for that watering
place and neighbouring villages ; Mr. John Allen
in the chair.

Mr. T. B. ALLEN stated what steps he had already
taken towards the formation of a company at Burn-
ham. He had received letters approving of the
movement from Sir Alexander Hood, M.P., Sir
W. Miles, M.P., Mr. H. F. Knatchbull, M.P.,
and Mr. C. A. Mooey, M.P., Archdeacon Denison,
Lord Cavan, Mr. Northcote ; and Mr. Cross had
premised subscriptions, and the amount they would
have to start with would be about £75.
On the proposition of Mr. W. GUNTER, seconded
by Mr. J. ALLEN, a resolution was passed to the
effect that a rifle corps be forthwith formed, to be
called. " The Burnham Rifles," and that steps be
immediately taken to enrol the 45 men who had
volunteered.

The motion was carried unanimously, as were
also others appointing a committee to carry out the
necessary preliminary arrangements.
Before the meeting separated the number of
volunteers who gave in their names exceeded 50.

TEA.—The market remains very inactive, and prices show
no material alteration.
Si:MAR.—An improved tone has been apparent, and the
trade generally has operated to some extent. British West
India qualities have realised full rates, and in the Refined
Market more activity has prevailed.
COFFEE.—A very limited quantity has been on offer, and
mostly of inferior qualities, which sold slowly at barely
previous rates ' • fine qualities of Plantation Ceylon were in
fair demaid at late rates.
RICE.—The market is dull, and the few transactions en.
tered into have been at slightly reduced prices.
FRUITS.--The inquiries for medium qualities of currants
continue active, and prices are fairly supported.
SALTPETRE.—The demand for the inferior descriptions
has been on the increase, at a slight advance on former
rates. _ _ _

THE AYNUITI TAX IN SCOTLAND•

•
The Legal Defence Committee,
at a meeting in Queen-street Rooms, Edinburgh,
met on Wednesday night to hear a report of Edinburgh,
state of the action at the instance of the established
clergy of the city against James Br done, publisher,
for arrears of the rate. Mr. A. Young occupied the
chair. He stated that the condescendence ordered,
by the sheriff on the 11th September, to be produee,a
within six days had been lodged by the clergy
s,
agent only on the 3d inst. It merely contained
recently appointed
certain pleas alleging that the exceptions taken by
the defender on the above date to the legal comps`
tent of the collector to prosecute were of no force.
A copy of the answers to the condescendence, 1)1.
d•
pared by us
the defender's agent, was then rea
After a minute and careful statement of the vario
laws which affect the collection of the rate, the
paper urges and reiterates the pleas ahead/
taken, and, in addition, shows that, while Oil°
appointment of two sworn men for every Pori%
to assess, levy, and perform other functions,
indispensable by the statutes, and had never been_
abrogated by any legal authority, these surveyo.:
or stentmasters have not been appointed sincelBs',
In consequence of this defect, it is maintained th,114:
every assessment that has been laid on since 10'
sunday, 1855, including the assessment for the Pri,e;
"
sent year, is an illegal assessment, and moot
by any legal process recovered. Another plea ISr
that whereas certain duties are imposed by staturo,
and confirmed by long-continued usage, ent a
Lord Provost, magistrates, and town council,
thatthes
have not been performed for many years, and e
consequently the assessments for these years we
and are illegal. The committee expressed unal%
mously their great satisfaction with the Manner
which these dfences had been drawn, and a%- that
eillor Tod, seconded by Mr. Raeburn, moved t,
this feeling should be communicated to the age?...t
Mr. Ross said that this case was of the greatestll;:
portance to the community. In all ar
would lead to the complete sweeping off all this
rears, save the inhabitants the payment ef tio
year's impost, and greatly facilitate the legisla
hole
settlement of the question during next session
Parliament. It was a question in which the sum.
body body of the ratepayers were interested, as o°,'„uted
mons could be raised and no means could be anrthe
to compel payment during the continuance of the
action. It, was therefore a citizen's question,
out,
they should be invited tL join heartily in Pr,°l oe-
ing the case through the courts 'of law, d,1.1.,!'„,,a of
cessary, to be prepared to carry it to the n°,-iall
Lords by way of appeal. He moved that ,ratiosS'
committee be appointed to invite the co-0p ost
and pecuniary assistance of the public, an" Pub-
advertisements to that effect be inserted in tilrep.
lie prints. The motion was seconded bye n.
bell, and was unanimously approved.—or.tsnia

ALHAMBRA PALACE.

Mr. M'Collum, the lessee of this popular place of
amusement, who is always on the look out to pro-
vide attractive entertainments for his patrons, has
just given a new proof of it in the engagement of
Mr. James Robinson, the great American rider,
who appeared for the first time last night, and was
received with great applause. Mr. Robinson is
undoubtedly entitled to be ranked among the most,
if not the most, intrepid and ingenious of horsemen
living. His dazzling and dauntless exploits per-
formed on the back of a swift and high-spirited
steed, and without the facilities afforded by saddle
and bridle—for he scorns to avail himself of either
—awaken the delight and admiration of the spec-
tators, who might have some difficulty in crediting
the possibility of such strange achievements, were
they not attested by "the sensible avouch of their
own eyes." The performances of the other mem-
bers of the company''. are distinguished in a very
remarkable degree by grace, agility, and expert-
ness, and the whole entertainment is arranged with
regularity, dispatch, and a commendable regard to
the comfort and convenience, as well as the amuse-
ment, of the audience.

ONE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD ON
CONVICTION.
The fearful dangers to invalids from spurious imitations of
DU BARRY'S invaluable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA
LENTA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and,
upon application in 1854 for protection, the High Court of
Chancery granted an injunction restraining 'Alfred Hooper
Nevin, and his agents, under a penalty of £5,000, from selling
any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du
Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of which we are the sole pro-
prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above
reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infor-
mation of any breach of the injunction. An intelligent
public requires no admonition to shun all shopkeepers who
may attempt impositions. London :EBARRY DU BARRY

GALLANT CONDUCT.

On Sunday night (6th instant) the brig Policy,.
timber laden, from Quebec, which had been observed
riding very heavily in Caldy Roads throughout the
day, parted her cables during a heavy gale from
W.S.W., and was seen by the Coastguard look-out
at 9.30 p.m.,, drifting fast towards the share ;
shortly afterwards a blue light and other signals of
distress were made from her, the lifeboat was
promptly launched, and with the Hon. R. F. Boyle,
Lieut, R.N., the coxswain, R. Parrott, and a crew of

10 men, proceeded to her assistance; the vessel was
found by them on shore in the midst of the breakers,
which were rolling in frightfully; the lifeboat
dropped her anchor and veered away cable until
sufficiently near to enable them to communicate
with those on board, when they found that four
of the crew had gained the shore by taking the
vessel's boat, but had been unable to render any
assistance to the five men remaining on board.
Just as the lifeboat was about to veer still nearer

the vessel her cable parted, and she was for some
time in great danger, however, having by great
exertions extricated her from the tremendous surf,
and finding it impracticable to render any help in
the disabled state of the lifeboat, and as the brig
was rolling so heavily among the breakers, they
returned to Tenby, and with the greatest despatch
this gallant band proceeded with the rocket appa-
ratus over the cliffs (a distance of between two and
three miles) until they arrived over the spot where
the brig was still labouring in the surf. The cliffs
being high and rugged, and in a very slippery
state from the rain and spray of the sea, they had
great difficulty in getting down (having to slide
upon their haunches and hold on by every slight
projection) and placing the rocket apparatus in a
proper position. The first rocket was so admi-
rably directed that the line fell directly on the
brig's forecastle, and being secured by the men on
board, the five men (among whom was the cap-
tain) were hauled on shore through tho surt, the
whole party reaching Tenby between four and five
o'clock on Monday morning, thoroughly drenched,
and in a very exhausted state. Lieutenant Boyle
speaks very highly of all the men who were with

him both in the lifeboat and with the rockets on
shore; their zeal could not be surpassed; and ha
particularly mentions the excellent conduct of R.
Parrott, coxswain of the boat (a chief boatman in
the Coastguard service), who nobly exerted himself
throughout this gallant affair, and has been instru-
mental in the saving of many lives from drowning
upon different occasions, in addition to many other
acts of great merit.

THAMES.

A TALE or WOE.—A poor sickly looking woman, who
appeared to be suffering fur want of proper sustenance, and
whose name is Sarah Parish, came before Mr. Selfe to
claim a little relief. Her case was a very pitiable one, and
was shadowed forth in a letter to the magistrate, signed by
Mr. W. Barratt, a vestryman and trustee of Ratcliff, and
14 other inhabitant householders. The poor woman and
her three young children were in a destitute condition
through the long illness of her husband, who had been a
labourer in the London Docks and was on Friday
last removed to Ratcliff Workhouse, preparatory to his
being taken to the County Lunatic Asylum, and
was hopelessly insane. He belonged to a benefit
society from which he received 12s. per week during the
last five months. The weekly stipend had entirely ceased
for some time, and to add to the distress of the family the
applicant gave birth to a child during her husband's illness.
The family had no present means of subsistence. It was
also stated that the applicant was an object of sympathy,
and deserving of assistance, that she was unable, in con-
sequence of her weakly condition to do anything for the
support of her children, the eldest of whom was only four
years old.
Mr. Selfe, after reading the letter, said—My good woman
yours is a very sad case but I am afraid anything I can
give you from the poor-box will only go a short way to re-
lieve your wants. Does any one know you ?
Roche, the gaolor of the court, said he had known the
applicant and her husband for many years. He knew them
to be sober, industrious, and respectable people, and he also
knew all that was stated in the paper to be perfectly true.
Mr. Selfe—Poor woman, I will give you a sovereign
from the poor-box.

Tho poor woman expressed her gratitude for the money,
and was in such a state of agitation and so very ill, that it
was found necessary to carry her out of the court.
