LITERATURE.

Bradshaw's Monthly Descriptive Railway Guide
and Illustrated Handbook of England, Scotland,

and Ireland. W. J. Adam.
As the facilities of, and, consequently, the
temptations to, locomotion have increased the
seed of a work like this has grown more urgent ;
and we may justly compliment the compiler and
publishers, not only on being the first to supply
the want, but also in, on the whole, a very credit-
able manner. Errors and omissions there, doubt-
less, are ; but not more, so far as we can judge,
than might reasonably be looked for in a first
attempt of the kind. This being premised, a brief
notice of some of the contents of the work will
afford some faint notion of its value and impor-
tance. All the information hitherto found in
" Bradshaw" will be met with here, together with
new information of a useful kind to the mere
traveller, while to others who would make travel-
ling a recreation, and to the tourist a charming
field of observation is laid open, and much inte-
resting information is given respecting the various
railway lines, and the towns, antique structures,
and natural beauties in the vicinity of the respec-
tive thorough routes. In addition the work is
embellished with numerous and beautiful steel
engravings, illustrative of the magnificent scenery
of the British Isles, and is accompanied by plans
of London, Dublin, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liver-
pool, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, and other
of our great cities and towns. A Directory of
Hotels, with customary charges and a notification
of the principal houses in each line of business in
the chief cities and towns—must also be noticed
as constituting a new and valuable feature of the
book ; a work which to the commercial traveller,
the tourist, the valetudinarian, the frequenters of
watering places, and all who travel by rail in the
three kingdoms and the Principality of Wales, we
recommend as a cheery and instructive handbook
end au invaluable guide.

A WHALE IN THE TEES.—Yesterday a whale 20 feet
long and 12 feet girth was killed on the sands at Tees
mouth. The monster has since been conveyed by rail
to the neighbouring towns, and excited considerable
interest. It seemed to hays been left by the tide.
STEERING BY STARLIGHT.--A story is told of a "green
hand" on board of a coasting vessel, who could not
learn to steer by the mariner's compass. It was a clear
starlight night, and the captain told him to head the
vessel to wards a bright particular star, which he pointed
out. This was done, and for a short time all was right;
but before long she was veering widely from her true
course, and rushing rapidly before the wind. " Ahoy
there, greenhorn at the wheel," roared the excited com-
mander. "Port the helm ! What do you mean 1
Where's the star ?" " Dear Captain," timidly replied
the devious helmsman, "keep cool, don't get excited—
never mind—l lost that star, but found another, brighter
and better than the one you showed me I"
COLONEL SIMMONS AT BRISTOL.—The annual soiree
of the Bristol Athenaeum was held on Wednesday even-
ing, when the entire suite of the Victoria.rooms were
called into requisition for the purpose of the conversa-
zione, a concert, with the brilliant military band and
stringed orchestra of the Royal Artillery, and a display
of high class pictures, bronzes, castes, optical, and
other scientific implements, &c. The attendance could
have scarcely fallen short of 2,000 persons, and amongst
the celebrities present was Lieut.-Colonel Simmons, her
Majesty's Commissioner in Turkey, wbo was, of course,
made the "lion" of the evening. The public meeting,
which was held in the great saloon, was presided over
by Mr. P. W. S. Miles, president of the institution,
who, in his opening address, apologised for the absence
of the great African traveller, Dr. Livingston, who had
folly purposed being present, but was prevented by
indisposition. "Various resolutions were passed, and the
meeting was addressed by the right worshipful the
mayor, Mr. J. Vining, Mr. Commissioner Hill, recorder
of Birmingham and Judge of the Bristol Court of
Bankruptcy ; Mr. P. F. Aikin, Mr. J. G. Shaw, and
by Colonel Simmons. The gallant colonel received a
very warm welcome.

AQUATICS.

KELLY AND
MESSENGER.—it may be as well to remind
all those concerned, and who might wish to be present
on the occasion, that the next deposit of 201. a side for
for
the scullers' race the chathpionship of the Thames is
to be made on Monday evening next, Jan. 26, at Mr.
Taylor's, Hand and Flower, Brentford.—We understand
that Mr. R. Bain, of Lambeth, who manufactured the
sculls which Kelly rowed with when he beat Buttle, the
Norwich champion, has received instrucrions to provide
Kelly's sculls for this event.
ADCOCK AND PALMER. —Articles of agreement were
entered into on Tuesday last, the 20th inst., by Thomas
Palmer, of Old Horselydown Stairs, aid Thomas Adcock,
of St. George's Stairs, Thomas-street, Horselydown, to
row a right-away scullers race, in old-faQhioned wager
boats, from the Waterworks Bridge at Putney to a boat
moored off the Ship at Mortlake, for 101. a side. Thos.
Palmer won the boat at the Horselydown Regatta last
year, and Thomas Adcock was second, when H. White,

CONFIDENCE IN THE GOVERNMENT.

CITY DEPUTATION TO LORD PALMERSTON.
This morning the deputation, consisting of the Lord
Mayor, Sir J. Duke, M.P., B. Oliveira, M.P., W. J.
Hall, J. W. Elliott, G. Allan, E. James, Thos. Christie,
T. J. Holt, Herbert Lloyd, Thomas Dakin, R. Raley,
R. Obbard, J. Dillon, Alderman Rose, and Sir C. D.
Crossley, appointed at the City meeting held on Friday
last, at the Guildhall, waited upon Lord Palmerston at
his residence, Cambridge-house, Piccadilly, and pre
_sented his lordship with a copy of the resolution agreed
to on that occasion, expressing the confidence of the
bankers, merchants, traders, and electors of the city of
London in the general policy of his lordship's Govern-
ment, especially with relation to• the late events in
China.
The Right Hon. the Loan MAYOR, accompanied by
the City Remembranc,r, and the members of the depu-
tation, arrived at Cambridge. House Ehurl ly after twelve
o'clock, when they were admitted to an immediate inter-
view with his lordship.
The LORD MAYOR having introduced to his loriship
the members of the deputation, expressed the pleasure it
afforded him in being able to present his lordship with
what he believedjto be the unanimous feeling of the mer-
chants, bankers, traders,. and electors of the City of
London, in reference to late events connected with his
lordship's political conduct, and handed him the
resolutirn agreed to at the meeting above refetred to.
Lord PALMERSTON, in reply, said that it gave him
great satisfaction to find that the course that had been
adtipted by her Majesty's Government, with reference
to late events, should have met with the approbation
of so great a commercial community as that of the City
of London. He regretted that the House of Commons
should have-come to an adverse vote on the motion of
the hon. member for the West Riding, but such being
the fact,. no other course than that which the Govern-
ment had adopted was open to them to foilow for the
protection of life and our great commercial interests in
China. The Government had thought it right to pro-
tect the servants of the Crown in China in the course
they had adopted, from a conviction that had her Ma-
jesty's Ministers been there they would have acted pre-
cisely similar. The Government, in cbnsequence of the
adverse vote referred to, had found it necessary to
appeal to the country, and he was proud to hear that a
city possessing so great and so many interests as the
City of London should have testified its approbation
of the conduct of her Majesty's, Government.
The deptitation then withdraw.

FIRES AND LOSS OF LIFE.

About 2 o'clock yesterday morning it was discovered
that a fire bad broken out in the premises belonging to
Mr. Child, brush manufacturer, 20 and 21, Providence-
row, Worship-street, within a short distance of Fin,bury-
square. Before the arrival of the engines the fire bad ex-
tended to some other buildings in Providence-row, con-
sisting chiefly of workshops, stores, and sale rooms, and
bad got to such a height in the building in which it com-
menced, that in spite of the united efforts of the parish,
London, and West of England brigades, the roof tell in
with a fearful crash, and the flames rose so high as to be
distinctly visible from every part of London. Several
hours t lapsed before the fire could be got under.
Another fire took place yesterday at No. 5, Gower's.
place, Mill-yard, Castle-street, Conamercial-road, East,
belonging to Mrs. Lea:,, and sublet to various poor
families. The building was three or four storeys high,
and before the arrival of the fire-escapes a woman who
lived on one of the upper floors, finding it impossible to
descend by the staircase, threw a child out of the win-
dow and then jumped out herself. The child was not
much hurt, but the poor woman received severe injuries,
and was takes, to the Lotichol Ilospit;11. The fire was
not extinguished before it had dearoyed the staircase,
the flooring of the second and third storeys, and the
greater part of the roof. On entering the building the
firemen found the dead body of a Iran, named Jeremiah
Bressan, burnt to a cinder, and that of a child two or
three years old, who had apparently been suffocated.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—March 14.

The jury in the case of Edward Jackson, indicted for
having feloniously received a firkin of butter knowing it
to have been stolen, being so divided iu their opinion
that their agreeing to a verdict was next to impossible,
the Assistant Judge, at ten o'clock on Friday night, di-
rected the court to be adjourned until Saturday morning
at a quarter past nine, at which time they were brought
into court. They looked exhausted, and several of them
complained sorely of having been kept nearly twenty-
four hours without refreshment.

The Assistant-Judge said he very much regretted that
they had been unable to agree, and he had waited until
ten the previous night, hoping► to prevent their being
locked up un.til morning, should they have come to a de-
cision by that hour, but as they did not there was no
alternative.

The Foreman said there was not the least possible
chance of their agreeing upon a verdict, even were they
locked up for a week. The only alteration that had
taken place was that one who bad been in the majority
bad gone over to the minority.
Mr. Lewis, jun., in the absence of counsel, said his
client, the prisoner, would consent to the jury being at
once discharged, and the prosecutor, he believed, had no
desire to have the case retried. Probably, as the prisoner
had been under aline peril of the charge, the court might
sanction that course, al the late Mr. Sergeant Adams
did in a celebrated case tried before him—a course
which would not be inconsistent with the ends of justice,
particularly as there was great doubt on the mils(' of
some of the jurors, as they could not agree.
The Assistant-Judge thought that would not be a con-
venient curse in this case. If the jury were discharged
from giving a verdict, the case would stand as it did
before the prisoner was given in charge to the jury ; in
fact, it would be an untried case. He was sorry that
the jury had been kept locked up all night, but even
then he cool 1 not discharge them, unless there were
reasons to apprehend

A Juror said he suffered from asthma, and he only got
relief by warmth and nursing, and longs: detention with-
out refreshment would be very dangerous to him. Two
others complained of illness arising from exhaustion.

The Assistant-Judge sent for—a
medical gentleman,
Mr. Barringer, of St. John-street, who examined the
three complaining jurors, and, having been sworn, he
stated that, will respect to two of them he apprehended
danger if they were kept longer without refreshment.
The Assistant-Judge thereupon ordered the jury to be
discharged, and they at once left the court.
Mr. Lewis asked that the prisoner might be admitted
to bail.

The Assistant-Judge declined to comply, and said the
application could be made at Judges' Chambers.
The witnesses for the prosecution were then directed
to attend on the bail day of the adjourned sessions, and
the court adjourned.

Article 7, the right of the Persian Government 11°
of

the Persian territory by the inhabitants either
Herat or Affghanistan ; on condition always
withdrawing its troops immediately on having e
ob-
tained the reparation required.
The Consular Agents•and subjects of Great Bri"
tain are to be treated in Persia on the same footing
as those of the most favoured nation.

ARSON.—Mr. Sella, on Thrsday, committed Ashcr
Stun for trial, for willfully and maliciously setting fire
to his dwelling house.
BETTING HOUSES.—Yesterday, at the Mansion-house,
the Lord Mayor mentioned the case of Merry, who was
recently convicted of keeping an illegal betting-house.
He observed that the sentence of imprisonment had,
upon appeal, been confirmed by the Central Criminal
Court, and he was determined to deal with such crses in
future in the same way. He believed that many cases of
embezzlement were to be attiibuted to the temptations
held out to young men by this pernicious system, an
instance of the kind having come before him on the pre-
vious day.
