The Right Hon. the Lords of the Committee of Privy

An Imperial Brazilian decree, of the 3d November last,
promulgating the tariff, enacts that, until the end of the
financial year 1862-63, additional duties of five per cent.,
ad valorem, shall be levied on all articles, with a few ex-
ceptions, imported into Brasil and cleared or consumption.
On the greater portion of the excepted articles additional
duties of two per cent., ad valorem, will be charged.
Certain specified articles, when imported into Abuquer-
que, will enjoy an abatement of 20 per cent on the amount
of import and additional duties, until the end of the finan-
cial year 1865-66, after which date this privilege will be
gradually abolished.

ILON-CY4SED FRIGATES.

-- -.---

We are only at the beginning of the commotion
which our French neighbours have caused by the
production of the Gloire. .They have a right to
wake a mystery of her. She has already upset all
our ideas of mariee architecture, and she is likely
enough to ievolutioeise all cur theories of lei tifiee-
iion. The Wooden walls of Old England are get-
tieg out of favour, despite the galltiet stand made
in their defence by Sir Howard Douglas. The very
conception of a ship is radically changed. It is
doubted if a frigate should have any masts or sails,
or any kind of projection above her deck. There
should be no difference between her stem and her
stern, while her sides should incline inwards at en
angle of 45 degrees. Instead of sitting the waters
" like a thing of life," she would be more like a
small sandbank at half-tide, and one of the new
models, indeed, is to be painted a light gray colour,
so as to become utterly invisible, like a Volunteer
Rifleman. In fact, the same theory has been ap-
plied to the art of war both by land ana sea. The
one great object is to project a bullet against an
enemy from the longest distance and with the
Greatest certainty. On land we insure these con-
ditions by the use of a pattern musket and au un-
distinguishable uniform; at sea we try to compass
iron
thesameendsby rifled cannon and armour. As
a ship cannot be exactly hidden, like a sharp-
shooter, she must be protected against shot, and be
enabled to defy the bullets which she cannot evade.
MI the poetry of the old idea is lost. A ship is
now regarded as nothing more nor less
gun-carriage---a than a mani-
fold gun-carriage
a floating battery, in short. For
her sailS and sailors she will have stokers and
steam, for seamen she will have gunners, and the
only remaining question is how to shield there •
gunners from the broadsides of the enemy. This
is what the French have done by plating the
vessel's sides with iron, so that, at length, there
appears a powerful battery, not, indeed, impreg-
nable, but nearly so; not altogether seaworthy,
but able to make short cruises in fair weather at
great speed; not a miracie of success, but a won
derful advance on any fabric launched before.
The Warrior probably surpasses the Gloire,
but the Gloire led the way. As to the objections
urged against the new system, they acquire their
force only from a confusion of propositions. There
are very many duties now discharged by our frigates
which neither the Gloire nor the Warrior could
perform ; but that would not hinder either of these
vessels from blowing a wooden frigate out of the
water under conditions of highly probable oc.
currence.

and closeness that it cannot be detected, and may be worn
during sleep. A descriptive circular may be had,: and the

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
Is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Redical Circular.

" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the `brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter.'

DR. KAHN on MARRIAGE.—A new and
entirely re-written Edition (the 4fith) of this celebrated
Treatise, with new Steel Plates, Woodcuts, kc., is now ready.
The object of the work is not to maintain any particular
hypothesis, but to enable every one to understand for himself
the structure and functions of the organs concerned in the
fulfilment of the physical obligations of the married state;
to acquaint him with the consequences arising from excesses ;
to prevent unnecessary misapprehension from unfounded
fears, and to indicate, when those fear are well founded, the
means of speedy relief. The work is of crowded with the
technicalities of ordinary professional books, nor does it pre-
sent the crudeness which characterises th 6 so-called " popular
works" on the subject.

COLONIAL.

TEA.—There has been a very limited business transacted,
and prices have shown little change of importance. Good
common congou is now quoted is ld per lb.
SUGAR.—The market has remained rather inactive, and
in some instances prices have slightly given way. Refined
descriptions, however, have realised previous quotations.
COFFEE.—A moderate amount of business has been done
in both plantation and native Ceylon, and good and fine
qualities have maintained steady prices. Other qualities,
however, are rather cheaper.
Rim—Only limited dealings have been recorded, and
chiefly for exportation, without any material alteration to
note in values.

SALTPETRE.—A large amount of business has been
transacted, and prices have considerably advanced, owing
to the demand on American account, the advance in some
instances having been about is to 2s per cwt., British re-
fined being quoted 42s to 43s per cwt.
TaLLow.—The market has continued dull, and prices
shown increased depression for both present and forward
delivery. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 50s 9d to 51s, and
spring delivery 51s 3d to Ms 6d per cwt.

TIIE ANNUAL CONCERT OF THE E DIVISION
Yesterday evening the annual concert of the above division
took place, at the Music Hall, Store-street, Bedford-square,
on which occasion there was a very full attendance, and a
most interesting and well-selected programme put forth
The band of the E Division (led by the bandmaster, Mr.
Lake) were, of course, the instrumentalists, and executed
several pieces in a manner that drew forth the warm appro-
bation of the visitors. The vocalists were Miss Eliza
Rycroft, Miss Schofield, Mr. Bennett, and Mr. Mason, and
Stevens's Glee Union. There were several encores, and
all seemed much delighted with the entertainment. The
arrangements were conducted by Inspector Pierce, and by
the excellent management of Mr. Superintendent O'Brien
the affair was so managed that the duties of the police were
not in the least interfered with. The musical movement
among the police, judging by appearances last night, is
undoubtedly, bringing the public and the police more in
harmony with each other.

HALF -YEAR t,Y MEETING.—(This day.)
An ordinary half-yearly meeting of the shareholders in
this company was held this day.
According to the directors' report, which was adopted
unanimously, the net profits during that period amount to
£14,696 ls. 3d., which added to the sum brought forward
from March, gives a balance at credit of revenue o
£14,763 15s. 6d.
It is recommended that out of this balance a dividend at
the rate of 81 per cent. per annum, less Income-tax, be
declared on the paid-up capital stock of the company; that
one-half of the surplus profits over 6 per cent. per annum,
and the usual charge for interest, amounting together to
£3,847 13s. Bd., be carried to the Reserve Fund, in accord-
ance with the Royal Chatter of incorporation ; and that
£250 be applied to the redemption of preliminary expenses.
There will then remain the sum of £4l ls. 10d, to the credit
of the next half-year's accounts, and the sum of
£31,293 15s. 4d. to the credit of the Reserve Fund.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day).

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

PICKPOCKETS AT A " PUNCH AND JUDY" SHOW.
James Burns, a young man, was oh rged as follows :
Lambert, 68 E, said that on the previous night, about half-
past 8, ho saw the prisoner and another man at the corner
of Percy-street, Tottenham-court-road. There was a large
crowd at the spot at the time, looking at a " Punch and
Judy" show, and from the prisoner's peculiar actions he
was induced to watch him, and he then saw him put his
hand into a female's pocket. He (Lambert) then attempted
to seize the prisoner, when he made off with his companion.
A gentleman then pursued the prisoner, and he (Lambert)
ascertained from the female that she had been robbed, and
went after the prisoner, and took him into custody.
Prisoner said, instead of running away, he walked com-
fortably, and if he had taken the money, why was it not
found on him ?

Mr. Tyrwhitt said his companion had a very good oppor•
trinity of taking it with him. He had no doubt the pri
soner had committed the robbery, and he should commi
him for trial.

Prisoner—Why, I wasn't there; most decidedly not, sir
Committed for trial.

BOROUGH HOP.

The demand for new hops continues in a healthy state,
and in some instances prices have an upward tendency.

REPORTED CHOLERA AT TlATTL—Reports having
been current that cholera had broken out at the port of
Hayti, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs of the
Republic writes to the Consul in London to contradict, on
the authority of the medical officer of the port, that there is
any foundation for such a rumour, as no case of cholera had
occurred up to the 24th of Oct.

AMATEUR THEATRICALS.—The members of the
Albany Dramatic Club gave (heir fourth entertainment
last evening at the Cabinet Theatre, King's-cross, the
pieces represented being " Used Up," and " Hamlet." In
the comedy the whole of the characters were performed in
a manner that gave great satisfaction to the very numerous
audience. In the tragedy Mr. Holl sustained the part of
Hamlet with much taste and ability. His delivering of
some of the soliloquies was exceedingly good, and taken as
a whole, his performance was a highly creditable one. Mr.
J. Bishop as the Ghost also very deservedly came in for a
full share of the honours of the evening. Miss Angell
made a very pretty Ophelia, and Mrs. Malcolm a very
effective and stately Queen.

this company was held this day.

According to the directors' report, which was adopted
unanimously, the net profits during that period amount to

It is recommended that out of this balance a dividend at
the rate of si per cent, per annum, less Income-tax, be
declared on the paid-up capital stock of the company; that
one-half of the surplus profits over 6 per cent, per annum,
and the usual charge for interest, amounting together to
£3,847 13s. Bd., be carried to the Reserve Fund, in accord-
ance with the Royal Charter of incorporation ; and that
£250 be applied to the redemption of preliminary expenses.
There will then remain the sum of £4l ls. 10d. to the credit
of the next half-year's accounts, and the sum of

PICKPOCKETS AT A " PUNCH AND JUDY" SHOW.—
James Burns, a young man, was ch rged as follows :
Lambert, 68 E, said that on the previous night, about half-
past 8, he saw the prisoner and another man at the corner
of Percy-street, Tottenham-court-road, There was a large
crowd at the spot at the time, looking at a " Punch and
Judy" show, and from the prisoner's peculiar actions he
was induced to watch him, and he then saw him put his
hand into a female's pocket. He (Lambert) then attempted
to seize the prisoner, when he made off with his companion.
A gentleman then pursued the prisoner, and he (Lambert)
ascertained from the female that she had been robbed, and
went after the prisoner, and took him into custody.
Prisoner said, instead of running away, he walked com-
fortably, and if he had taken the money, why was it not
found on him ?

Mr. Tyrwhitt said his companion had a very good oppor-
tunity of taking it with him. He had no doubt the pri•
soner had committed the robbery, and he should commit
him for trial.

Prisoner—Why, I wasn't there; most decidedly not, sir.
Committed for trial.

CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER.—Thomas Madeley, a tall,
powerful, and ruffianly-looking fellow, described as a gan-
lock maker, aged 39, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged
with manslaughter in "killing and slaying" William
Silvester, who died in the London Hospital, on 'Wednesday
evening last.
The deceased was a cigar maker, and on Saturday night
last he accompanied his brother, James Silvester, to the
White Hart public-house, in Hooper-square, Whitechapel.
The prisoner and many others were there. The deceased
and the prisoner were "chaffing" each other, and a good deal
of very offensive language was used by the two men. Their
passions were inflamed, they became angry with each other,
and the prisoner rose from his seat and made five or six blows
at the deceased, who was seated in a corner. The deceased's
brother, James Silvester, a very respectable man, inter-
fered, and the prisoner struck him. The landlord of the
White Hart then came into the tap-room, and said he would
have no fighting there. James Silvester and others suc-
ceeden in putting Madeley out of the room. The deceased,
who was a slight man, and no match for the prisoner, soon
afterwards left the room, and was going along the passage
of the house towards the street, when Madeley and another
man wished the deceased to go out and settle their diffe-
rences in the street. The deceased refused, and his brother
made every effort to restore peace. The prisoner, however,
would not be pacified, and attacked William Silvester again,
got him into a corner, and pummelled him. The prisoner
threw the deceased and then fell upon him heavily. The
bystanders interfered, pulled the prisoner off the deceased,
and raised the latter from the ground. He was unable to
walk and called out, " My leg is broken." A cab was im-
mediately procured, and the unfortunate man was taken to
the Hospital. Thomas West said the deceased's thigh was
smashed. James Silvester said "My brother received a
most fearful injury; the bone of his thigh was broken,
and sticking out."

The witnesses, in answer to Mr. Selfe, said the prisoner
was the worse for liquor on Saturday night.
Police-Sergeant Joe, 14 H, produced a needical certifi-
cate, stating that the injuries deceased received was the
cause of death.
Mr. Selfe remanded the prisoner for a week.

TIIIRD COURT.

(Before Thomas Chambers, Esq., Q.C., Common
Sergeant.)
At the sitting of the Court this morning James
Underwood Joslyn, who was acquitted last night
on a charge of embezzlement, again surrendered in
discharge of his bail to answer another indictment.
He pleaded Not Guilty, and on the application of
counsel the trial was postponed to the next sessions,
and the prisoner was again allowed to be at large
on his former bail.
George Wells, who had pleaded Guilty on a pre-
vious day to an indictment charging him with
having set fire to an haystack at Edgware, was
placed at the bar for judgment.
A police-constable was called, who informed the
Court that the prisoner bore an exceedingly bad
character, and had been several times in custody.
The Common Sergeant sentenced the prisoner to
six years' penal servitude.
Mary Ann Hollis, 38, hawker, was convicted of
feloniously wounding Mary Stanley, with intent to
do her some grievous bodily harm.
Mr. I)ickie prosecuted.
It appeared that the prosecutrix had been the
principle witness against certain companions of the
prisoner, and that on her evidence they had been
convicted of felony at a recent Newington Ses-
sions; and that the prisoner had waylaid and
committed a savage assault upon her with a
murderous weapon, which was produced in Court,
something like a butcher's steel, but longer, with
which he stabbed her, down the head, inflicting
serious bodily injuries.
The Common Sergeant sentenced the prisoner to
12 months' imprisonment with hard labour.
Alfred Shea, 19, labourer, was convicted of felo-
niously breaking and entering the dwelling-house
-of Hannah Gurney and stealing therein three money
boxes and a writing desk.
Mr, Horry prosecuted, and Mr. Diekie defended.
The prisoner pleaded guilty to two other indict-
meats of the same character; and there were no less
than eight or nine other charges against hint.
It appeared from the evidence of the police that
he was a most expert burglar and always " worked"
entirely by himself and without any accomplices.
The Common Sergeant sentenced him to four
years penal servitude.
Henry Nicholls, 21, labourer, and John Waldron,
21, carpenter, were indicted for stealing one half
chest of tea, value £3, the property of the Midland
Railway Company.
Mr. Sleigh and Mr. Poland prosecuted.
The prisoners, it appeared, were well known to
the police as thieves, and were in the habit of plun-
dering carriers vans, and had been seen by the
police to follow a van belonging to the Midland
Railway Company, and to take from it a chest of
tea as described in the indictment. The evidence
was most conclusive and the jury found them guilty.
The Common Sergeant sentenced Nicholls to be
imprisoned and kept to hard labour for 18 calendar
months ; and Waldren, against whom a former con-
viction was proved, to four years penal servitude.

ADULTERATION OF PICKLES.

The Lancet of the 30th of November contains an
important Report upon the Adulteration of Pickles,
Bottled Fruits, and Vegetables, of which the follow-
ing is a summary :
Of seven samples of greengages examined, four
were found to be coloured with copper.
Of five samples of gooseberries analysed, three
contained that powerful and poisonous metal.
A sample of rhubarb was also coloured with
copper.

Of ten samples of pickles, including French
beans, gherkins, mixed pickles, and West India
pickles, copper was found, in some cases in large
amount, in seven of the samples.
Of five tins of preserved peas tested, that metal
was present in two of the samples.
Of four samples of haricot verts or French beans,
three were highly coloured with copper, as well as
a sample of mixed vegetables.
Thus of 35 samples analysed, copper was present,
frequently in considerable amount, in no less than
21 of the samples, or nearly two thirds.
This result the lancet regards as most disgrace-
ful, and states that there is no excuse for it what-
ever. Bottled and preserved fruits and vegetables
do not in their preparation come in contact with
copper at all, and pickles may be prepared in uten-
sils of iron. The pickles thus made are less green ;
but the fact of their being of better flavour and
much more wholesome ought to be more than suffi-
cient to counterbalance so trifling a disadvantage.
The blame in this case is asserted to rest mainly
with certain of the manufacturers and preparers of
these articles. If these would set their faces against
a pratice so dangerous there would soon be an
end of this disgraceful adulteration. It sW,uld be
known that the addition of copper to any vegetable
substance used as an article of food is a violation of
the recent act for the Prevention of Adulteration,
and exposes the parties to prosecution.

Wish or support a charge of wilfamurder ; and he
argued that from the confused state the prisoner
was in from having been drinking, his mind was not
in a state to clearly understand wat was going on.
His own statement showed that she placed her
arms round his neck, a circumstance which indi-
cated that he was acting under her directions.
Several witnesses were then called, who stated
the prisoner to be a very humane, sober, and well-
disposed youg man.
Mr. Justice Byles, in summing up the case to the
jury, remarked that the case was of a most painful
character to all parties. Hispordship minutely re-
capitulated the whole of the evidence, and explained
to the jury the law affecting it. His lordship
stated that where two persons agreed together to
commit suicide,:and only one dies, the party agree-
ing and taking part in the act was clearly guilty of
murder, and liable to the consequences of the crime.
The prisoner's own statement fully established that
he had agreed with the deceased to join in the act
which had proved fatal to her.
The jury, after a brief consultation in their box,
expressed a wish to retire; but as they were about
to leave the jury-box,:
The foreman asked his lordship whether, if they
believed the account given by the prisoner of the
transaction was a true one, the offence amounted to
wilful murder.

Mr. Justice Byles—Certainly it would.
The jury again conferred for a very brief space
of time, and at length returned a verdict of guilty,
strongly recommending the prisoner to mercy.
Mr. Justice Byles—Then you think his story was
in every particular true ?
Foreman—We do.

Mr. Justice Byles—And that there was not any
malice on his part ?
The jury (almost unanimously)—No, not the
slightest.
The prisoner was then asked the usual question,
whether he had anythin., to say why sentence of
death should not be passed upon him, but he made
no reply.
Mr. Justice Byles then assumed the black cap,
and, with great emotion, said this was a most pain-
ful case, and he entirely agreed in the opinion ex-
pressed by the jury as to the absence of all malice ;
and he would take every care that the recommen-
dation to mercy, and the opinions they had ex-
pressed, should be forwarded to the proper quarter.
At present it only remained for him to pass the
sentence of the law, directing the removal of the
prisoner to the gaol of the county in which the
offence had been committed, namely, Kent. His
lordship then passed the sentence in the usual form
and words, adding the aspiration—May the Lord
have mercy on your soul.
The prisoner, who maintained uncommon self-
possession during the whole of the proceedings, then
bowed and calmly withdrew from the dock.
Samuel Thomas Gillard, a letter-carrier, who had

, .
pleaded guilty to an indictment for stealing a post
letter containing a sovereign, was brought up for
judgment, and sentenced to three years' penal ser-
vitude.
