COMMERCIAL INTP.T.T.TGENCE.

CITY, Two o'CLoorc.
The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed
without any particular alteration. The sales for
the week are 21,000 bales, and prices have receded
id. to id. per lb.
The Bank cf England returns are completed to
'Wednesday last, in accordance with the new
arrangement, and the operations of the establish-
ment during the nine days, viz., from the 24th
ultimo, have been of the most unfavourable k;nd,
fully justifying the course taken by the Directors.
In fact, the rise to 9 per cent, under the existing
system could not be prevented, and, during the next
few days, every movement will be narrowly watched
in order to ascertain, if possible, whether a further
elevation is probable. The reserve of notes ex-
hibits a very unsatisfactory figure, and scarcely ex-
ceeds 2,000,0001., while the bullion has suffered to
the extent of nearly 900,0001. The other securities,
again, have undergone an unsatisfactory change,
the addition being more than 2,000,0001. Alto-
gether, therefore, the position of the Bank is
critical, and cannot withstand an increase, or even
a continuance of the crisis, without some reli, fis
afforded by the Leg:slature. Subjoined are the
principal items of Wednesday's return, and the
changes it presents compared with that of the
24th ultimo

SPIIE PANORAMA IN LEICESTER SQUARE,

which, during a long series of years, has obtained a world-wide re-
nown, under the conduct of the late Mr. Barker, and Mr. Ihriord,
the present enterprising and talented Artist and Lessee. It will be
unnecessary here to record the many triumphs of the painter's art,
ringing home to us the most distant, vaned, and celebrated scenes

London, England, 1857-11-07

Investigation, in the courso of a short time,
placed the detectives in possession of some infor-
mation which induced them to watch closely the
movements of a man named Thomas Williams, em-
ployed at the Tower as a lock setter-up and ex-
aminer. They were for some time foiled in dis-
covering anything that could implicate him, but at
length they clearly traced out a complicity between
him and two men named Brueton, in the service as
outvrorkers of Mr. Turner, Fisher-street, one of
the Government contractors, who has been a
sufferer by these depredations to a large amount.
We are unable to state the precise nature of the
connection of these men, but evidence was ob•ained
against them to warrant the apprehension of the
three on Saturday last by Sergeants Smith and
Lockyer, the Bruetons on the charge of stealing,
and Williams ou that of receiving a large quan-
tity of stolen guns. They were brouget up at
the public office, Birmingham, ou Wednesday, be-
fore Mr. H. Van Wart and Mr. T. R. T. Hodgson.
Mr. George Whately, vs ho appeared for the prose-
cution, without going into any of the facts of the
, case, which he said was not then complete, formal.),
applied for a remand for a -week. Mr. Filet*, barris-
ter (ins'ructed by Mr. Palmer), on behalf of the
prisoners, did not oppose this course, but asked
that bail for their appearance might be taken. Mr.
Whately, however, resisted the application on the
ground that the liberation of the prisoners would
tend materially to interfere with the ends of ju,tice ;
and after some conversation it was refused by the
bench.

WESTMIN STER.

VIOLENT ASSAULT BY A FEMALE IN VICTORIA-
STREET.—EIizabeth Hickey, a female of an unpleasant
cast of countenance, was charged before Mr. Arnold
with a desperate assault on Anne Buller, a respect-
able married woman, residing at No. 1, Alfred-street,
Pimlico.
The complainant stated that about half-past eleven
o'clock last night she was returning- home ong Vic-
toria-street, in the company of a female friend, when
the prisoner came up to them asked her (complainants)
friend to give her some half-pence. Her friend said
that she had none. She then exclaimed, "Do bestow
a few halfpence upon a poor woman." C)inplainant
again declined doing so. The prisoner went away,
but returned almost immediately kicked her so severely
that she was knocked down. She did not recollect
anything that took place after, as she fainted away.
Mr. Arnold—Did the kick hurt you ?
Cimplainaut—Yes, sir. I was in very great pain
afterwsrdr. Two gentlemen u-ged me to give her
int ) custody. She Ant away, but was followed' by a
policeman, who took her into cuAody.
The complainant's friend corroborated the evidence.
Policeman, B 84, said that he 103 k the prisoner into
custody. He found the complainant on the pavement
in a fainting sate. He was toll by several persons
that the complainant had bean kicked by the prisoner.
Prisoner is a common beggar.

The prisoner said she-hoped the magistrate would
forgive her.
Mr. Arnold—Forgive you. Certainly not. You
kicked the complainant in a most deliberate way.
The prisoner was fined 51., or in default two months'
imprisonment.

R. HOWARD, surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
ig street, has Introduced an entirely new description of ARTI-
FICIAL TEETH ,fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
lecay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
,peration, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
ruaranteed to restore articulation and mastication; and that Mr.
Howard's improvement may be within the reach of the most econo-
mical, lie has axed the charges at the lowest scale possible. De-
cayed teeth stopped and r.ndered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.-52, Fleet-street. At home from ten till five.

dian) had a better right to such an honour, "as he
was a much better actor." It appears certain that
the Italian, who is de3cribed as a prince, is of de-
ranged intellect. He was at once taken into
custody.

The directors of e...e Bank had an audience to-day
of the Emperor at Compiegne to propose, it is said,
a duty of 3 per cent, on the exportation of the preci-
ous metals, or to be allowed to raise the discount to
8 per cent. The proposition, it is said, was not ac-
cepted.

The French Government have expressed their
approval of M. Thouvenel's conduct with respect to
Redschid Pasha. The Russian Ambassador in Paris
is invited for the 10th to Compiegne, but his col-
leagues of Turkey and Austria remain still ex-
cluded, and in all probability will remain so to the
end. The Papal N uncio has not been invited. It
is now sa;d that the Court will remain at Com-
piegne till the Ist of December if the weather con-
tinues favourable.

VIOLENT ASSAULT BY A FEMALE IN VICTORIA-
STREET.—EIizabeth Hickey, a fe,uale of an unpleasant
cast of countenance, was charged before Mr. Arnold
with a desperate assault on Acne Buller, a respect-
able married woman, residing at No. 1, Alfred-street,
Pimlico.

The complainant stated that about half-past eleven
o'clock last night she was returning home along Vic-
toria-street, in the coinpa.y of a female friend, when
the prisoner canna up to them asked her (complainants)
friend to give her some half-pence. Her friend said
that she had none. She then exclaimed, "Do bestow
a few halfpence upon a poor woman." Complainant
again declined doing so. The prisoner went away,
but returned almort immediately kicked her so severely
that she was knocked down. She did not recollect
anything that took place after, as she fainted away.
Mr. Arnold—Did the kick hurt you ?
Complainant—Yes, sir. I was in very great pain
afterwardr. Two gentlemen u-ged me to give ber
into custody. She went away, but was followed by a
policeman, who took ber into custody.
The complainant's friend corroborated the evidenoe.
Policeman, B 84, said that he took the prisoner into
custody. He found the complainant on the pavement
in a fainting &ate. He was toll by several persons
that the complainant bad been kicked by the prisoner.
Prisoner is a common beggar.
The prisoner said she hoped the magistrate would
forgive her.

Mr. Arnold—Forgive yon. Certainly not. You
kicked the complainant in a most deliberate way.
The prisoner was fined 51., or in default two months'
imprisonment.
London, England, 1857-11-07

better than a merely abstract interest. And for
this one simple reason enough : that while a great
deal may be learnt in regard to the Past, from
any such comprehensive investigation, absolutely
nothing can be augured in regard to the Future
in obedience to the guiding light of experience.
It is not thus, however, by any means that we
are left in a manner despairing upon the brink of
our own land-locked sea of calculations. Practical
results of a solid kind are not merely possible—
they are really, in a manner, inevitable from in-
quiries bearing directly upon our own indigenous
population.

To epitomise our argument by the mention of
a single fact, it will be enough if we direct atten-
tion to the statement put forth by the Registrar-
General in his last return, to the effect that, out
of the deaths occurring during the last quarter in
England, not fewer than seventeen thousand may
be regarded as premature, or, in another phrase,
avoidable.

Nevertheless, the aggregate deductions com-
pacted together in this remarkable return must—
in spite of that one fearful estimate—be deemed
in sober truth, to be eminently satisfactory. It
is satisfactory, for instance, to learn from this
authoritative source that the deaths, upon the
whole, have been less than the average mortality!
—that the births have been more numerous than
upon any previous return for a similar period !
that the marriages have considerably exceeded the
average of the quarter during the last decade,
viz., from 1847 to 1857 ! Altogether, we say, the
results, in a very peculiar degree, are satisfactory.
It is surely encouraging and consolatory, more-
over, at the same time to bear in mind those
contemporaneous statistics, proving, beyond the
reach of doubt, facts such as the following—that
beef is Bk, mutton 4, and wheat 17 per cent.
below the average of the two last past summer
quarters 1

Estimates of this kind serve a double purpose
in our onward march. They enable• us all the
more clearly to appreciate the expansion and the
imminence of our responsibilities—and which,
doing this, they afford us the solid boon of direct
and positive encouragement.

Let us recollect that, upon an average, slime
68,000 persons come to an untimely end amongst
us every year—that our population is steadily
increasing at the rate of about 1,000 a day,
otherwise 365,000 annually—let us recollect
these and similar facts : and we shall most
assuredly not slacken our efforts at sanitary im-
provement—efforts, again we say, only now barely
commenced !

By the E

"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practt-
eel contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs as, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to cot-
rect."—London Medical Gazette. " The tribe of ' Quiet Sympathisers,
and 'Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those whe saffcr from the com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money...... This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
Likely to do much good."—Medical Circular.

SIR HENRY LA GFRENCE.

Sir,--The British public arc hardly yet aware of
the real extent of the loss of such a man as Sir Henry

anadvimeuiclietaarty foresight was at least equal to the gal-
lantry"
The revelation that will soon be made if Luck-
nowletter will be
be relieved will. certainly raise Henry's reputa-
tion
higher than it
.stands evea at present, for all
will feel that to himcits successful defence is mainly
due. Sox wee!isbeLore the outbreak there were no
reaTdhewfiot
more defences about the Residency or its magazine
than that about a house in an English gentleman's
park ; but Henry was not new to this let-be sys-
tem, which prevails through India as at home, and
among his first proceedings on taking up his post
at Lucknow was that of putting the Residency into
a defensible state. The defences were afterwards
much added to, but what would have been the
state of things there had an ordinary man been at
the head ?"
Your obedient servant,

ITALY.

The Sardinian Government has received intelli-
gence that, in consequence of its reiterated remon-
strances the captain of the Cagliari has at length
been allowed to hive some of his own clothes from
his ship—that is to say, that the King of Naples
has been graciously pleased to allow the unfortu-
nate man to change his shirt at the end of four
months' imprisonment I
The Opinion of the 3d has the following remarks
in a large type, which indicates that it is inspired
from an official source :

" The Austrian Gazette, discussing the question
of the Danubian Principalities, has asserted and re-
peated that the Ru,sian and Prussian Governments
had abandoned their original opinion on the said
question, and hid adopted that of the Cabinet of
Vienna. We have reason to believe, and we are
persuaded we cannot be contradicted in affirming,
that the assertions of the Austrian Gazette are nuA
conformable to the true state of the case. Faithful
to their undertakings, resolute to promote the loyal
execution of the Treaty, the Governments of Russia
and Prussia have not ceased to agree on the ques-
tion of the Principalities with those Governments
whom they held common opinions on that important
question."

It appears that some apprehension existed. in
Genoa on Sunday night of some Mazzinian move-
ment, and that the troops were confined to their
barracks in consegnence.

It is reported from Milan that the Government
at Vienna had authorised the execution of the
railway from Milan to the Piedmontese frontier at
the bridge of Buffalora, and that the railway com-
pany proposes commencing operations without de-
lay. _ _ _

From all parts of Italy we daily receive intelli•
gence of damage done by inundation. In Pied•
wont a subscription for the sufferers in this king.
dom has been set on foot, and a provisional cox.
mittee named for collecting in the different
provinces.

ATTIMPTED MURDER AND SUICIDE. —For some time
past a man named Featherstone, a farm servant in the
employ of Mr. Passtnore, E'Lst Down, near Throstaple,
had complained of being ill-treated by the female ser-
vants in the house. A few days ago he quitted Mr.
Paernere's service alleging this as his reason. On the
evening of his leaving, two of the women were sitting
at work in the kitchen, when the prisoner came and fired
a blunderbuss, loaded with shot, through the window,
greatly frightening, but not injuring the women. He
escaped pursuit, and went and hung himself in a neigh-
bouring wood, where he was found by a gentleman who
was rabbit shooting. An inquest was held, and 3 verJlet
of " Temporary inranity" returned.
