THE HEALTH OF LONDON.

(From the weekly return of the Registrar-General.)
In the week ending last Saturday, 965 deaths were
registered in London. The increase on the return of
the previous week, when only 775 deaths occurred,
arises not from an increased rate of mortality, but from
an influx of cases which had been the subjects of coro-
ners' inquests at various periods in the last three months,
but were not registered till the end of the quarter. The
corrected average for ten corresponding weeks in 1840-9
is 994; compared with which the deaths of last week ex-
hibit a decrease of 29. Ten persons, of whom 9 were
children, died of smallpox, 17 of measles, 14 of scarla-
tina, 19 of hooping-cough, and 34 of typhus; all of these
epidemics showing much less than the usual mortality,
except the last, which differs little from the average.
Bat diarrhea.% shows a considerable increase ;
in
the last three weeks the fatal cases have run
.thus-17,
18, and 33. Two deaths from cholera were registered;—
Oa the 25th Jane, at 4, Princes-street, Cripplegate, s,
purer, aged 38 year>, died of " acute rheumatism (10
days), cholera (3 days)." The deceased had a severe
attack of cholera in August last, and since that time his
health has not. been good. On the 28th ef June, at 23,
Wiudmill-row,;the:wite.of a labourer, aged 54 years, died
of " bilious cholera (45 hours)." The certificate adds
that " there was nu purging in this case." Mr. Mears,
the registrar, when cholera prevailed last year, described
this row as in a filthy condition, and singularly adapted
to generate disease.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.
By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
zcons than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving oaa secure

GERMANY.

The Independance Of Brussels has the following
.summary of German news :—"Nothing is more
changeable than the diplomatic temperature
,which
reigns between Vienna and Berlin—a few .days ago
it was fine; now it is perfectly stormy. Our corre-
spondent at Berlin informs us that M. de Bernstorff,
Minister of Prussia to the Court of Austria, had
arrived with bad news from his Government. The
Cabinet of Vienna is said to have withdrawn the half
concessions to which Prince Schwartzenburg in some
sort consented, during the conferences of Warsaw,
and an understanding seemed more distant than
ever. Immediately after the reception of*: the
news brought by M. de Bernstorff, a Cabinet Council
. was held, and itlasted five hours. No formal resolu-
tion was come to, but all the Ministers appeared to be
very firm. As to the-Danish question nothing is de-
cided: Prussia, says our Berlin correspondent, will
only carry on negotiations for a simple peace; but, on
the other hand; our Hamburgh corresponden t states that
at the date of th'e last letters there wad certain agitation
in Copenhagen, in the expectation of the reply of Prus-
sia to the sort of ultimatum sent to Berlin by the Danish
Government. 'ln Schleswig., the electors, in spite of the
prohibition of the mixed Commission, respond to the
.appeal.of the Lieutenancy-General, by nominating
deputies of Holstein, who are to meet at Kiel. Our
correspondent at Hamburgh states that a new Minis-
terial crisis had broken out at Hanover. All the
- Ministers had deposited their portfolios in the hands
of the King, on the morning of the 27th. The King
bad promised to make known his decision in twenty-
four hours. The cause of the Ministerial deter-
mination is not stated in cur letters. It was
said at Hamburgh that the note addressed by the
Kieg of Hanover to the Duchies of Oldenburg and
Brunswick, and to the:flanse towns, had not the im-
portance which was at first ascribed to it, its ob-
ject having been more for the formation of a corn
menial and manufacturing than of a political union.
But that does not result from all the information pre-
viously received."
The German Journal of Frankfort of the 30th ult.
says, the Elector of Hesse Cassel has removed M. de
Hassenplug, who was recently condemned by a Prus•
sian Court, from the Ministries of Justice and the
Inferrior.

The Vienna Gazette of the 27th ult. contains a
funamental law for the military frontier of Croatia,
Sclavonia, and the Banat. It enacts, that the mi-
itary frontier shall form an integral part of the
Austrian monarchy, but shall have a free communal
constitution.
London, England, 1850-07-03

ITALY.

The Statuto of Florence publishes a letter from
Venice of the 19th ult., stating that Sir W. Parker
has induced the Turkish Government to declare Scu-
tari in Albania a free port.
The Debats publishes, under date of Vienna, 26th
ult. :—" The following are correct particulars of the
result of the-conferences of the Italian delegates with
the Minister of the Interior. The points on which
they have cone to an understanding are—the dele-,
gates will on Friday next, in their last plenary sitting,
name a committee charged to represent them, and to
draw up a counter-project of Statuto. This committee
will. propose a provincial diet, composed of a cham-
ber of deputies and a senate. An electoral law,
on a wider basis than that of the Ministerial Bill,
will facilitate the access to the Chamber. The Senate
will lie composed of 60 Members, of whom 18 only
are to be named by the Emperor; the others to be
elected by the communes, the Universities, and the
scientific institutes. The duration of the Legise
lature will be four years for the Deputies,
and' ten years far the Senators. The latter, who
are immoveable during that period, may be re•
elected by the communes, or again named by
the Emperor. The Diet will have the right
to occupy itself legislatively with the affairs of
the country, except us regards the great common
interests of the province and of the Empire, such
as the arms, the navy, and the finances. With
regard to the latter, the Diet will discuss and vote the
division of tihe taxes, but the fixing of them will remain
exclusively with the general Diet of Vienna, or with the
Government, until that Diet be convoked. It is posi-
tively stated that these general arrangements have met
with the approbation of the Minister of the Interior.
who is said to have engaged to support the counter-
project thus drawn up, with the Emperor. It is expected
that several other members of the Ministry will adopt
a similar course. Baron de Bruck, the Minister of
Commerce, and M. Schmerling, the Minister of Jus-
tice, are spoken of as being favourable to these con=
cessions.

THE HEALTH OF LONDON.

(From the - weekly return of the Registrar-General.)
In the week ending last Saturday, 965 deaths were
registered in London. The increase on the return of
the previous wee k, when only 775 deaths occurred,
arises not from an increased rate of mortality, but from
an influx of cases which had been the subjects of coro-
ner.' inquests at various periods in the last three: months,
but were not registered 011 the end of the quarter. The
corrected average for tea correspond:l)g weeks in 1840-9
is 994; compare d with which the deaths of last week ex-
hibit a decrease of 29. Tea persons, of whom 9 were
children, died of smallpox, 17 of meeslets, 14 of scarla-
tina, 19 of I°op-trig-couch, and 34 of typhus; all of these
epidemics showing much less than the usual mortality,
except the last, which differs little frum the average.
But diaraces shows a considerable increase ; to
the last three weeks the fatal cases ',live run thus-17,
18, and 33. Two deaths from cholera were registered:—
O t the 95th Jane, at 4, Princes•street, Cripple4zate,
porter, aged 38 year:, died of acute rheumatism (10
days), cholera (3 days)." The deco a,ed had a severe
attack ef cholera in August last, and since that time his •
health I,as no'. teen good. On the 28th ef June, at 23,
Windmill-row;the,wife of a Labourer, aged 54 years, died
of bilious cholera (45 hours)," The certificate adds
that " there was net porgieg
in this ease." Mr. Mears,
the registrar, when cholera prevailed last year, described
this row as in a filthy condition,
and singularly adai
to generate dit.ea::r. &t 1

Tr IR WEATHER.—The mean height of the baro-
meter in the past week was ti9.BSB inches. The thnin tem-
porature was 64. 2 deg. It was more than 7 deg, abovp the
average (Art the first four day aad iL was below it during ties,
remaiuder of the week.

EXPOSITION OF 1851.

On our re-admission to the gallery we found
Lord BROUGHAM moving for certain papers re-
lating to the exposition of 1951. He gave notice that he
should postpone his motion on the subject to Thursday.
Lord CAMPBELL hoped his Noble and Learned
Friend would not postpone it beyond Thursday, because
be (Lord Campbell) was most anxious, as Lord Chief
Justice of England, to enter his solemn warning against
what he had no hesitation in characterising as certainly,
if not illegal, at least the unconstitutional proceedings
which were contemplated in this matter, and which
would inflict a great grievance on her Majesty's subjects.
Lord BROUGHAM would not postpone it beyond
Thursday, and he entirely agreed with his Noble Friend
in his view of this matter.

LAMBETH.

William Edward Eicke, lately a clerk in the Account-
ant'-office of tho London and South-Western Railway
Company, was brought before Mr. Elliott for final exa-
mination, charged with forging and stealing a deben-
ture bond fur 2,000/., the property of the railway com-
pany.
The whole of the voluminous depositions were then
read over to the prisoner by Mr. Parry, the chief clerk,
when Mr. ELLIOTT asked him whether he wished to say
anything, as ho stood fully committed to take his trial
a t the ensuing Old Bailey sessions for the forgery and
larceny.

Mr:Games, who appeared for the prisoner, declined
stating anything.
The prisoner was accordingly committed, and all the
witnesses bound over to prosecute.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, July 2.
Their Lordships met at Five o'clock.
GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY (DEVIATIONS,
AMENDMENT OF ACTS, ALTERATION
OF TOLLS, AND OF EAST LINCOLNSHIRE
RAILWAY TOLLS) BILL.
On the order of the day for the third reading of this
Bill,
Lord CARRINGTON opposed the motion. The
landholders on the line had been induced to consent to
the Bill in 1846, on the ground of the lowness of the tolls.
By this Bill the company sought to raise the tells and
thereby were violating faith. He moved that it be re-
committed in order to give the opponents of the Bill an
opportunity of being heard.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE said the opponents of the
Bill had already had ample opportunities of being heard,
and he should press the third reading.
After a few words from the Duke of RICHMOND,
The Earl of GRANVILLE said that he should vote
for the third reading of the Bill.
Lord REDESDALE asked why the opposition to this
Bill did not take place earlier?—(Cheers.) He thought
no railway company had any claim to come to Parlia-
ment to increase tolls. Many Bills had been carried
solely on the ground of the low rate of tolls.
Earl FITZ WILLIAM bad no objection to the Bill
generally; but with respect to an increase of tolls he
thought that some parties had been negligent in watching
the progress of the measure. The result of this increase
of tolls would be to cut off a great part of Lincolnshire
from the London market, and he could only ac-
count for the delay of the opposition on the
ground of the dislike which private individuals
had to enter the lists against a powerful company.
Ile thought it would be but just to send.this Bill again
to a Committee.

Lord KINNAIRD thought, that as another railway
running through the same district had obtained power
to incre : their tolls, this Bill ought to be passed. To
recom that Bill would be virtually to lose it.
Lord :EAUALONT considered that this Bill was a
violation of agreement with the landowners, and they
would be exposed year after year to fight this company
if their Lordships admitted the principle that a railway
company might violate an understanding by raising
their tolls.

After a few words from the Earl of DEVON,

Lord STANLEY said that as the opponents of the
Bill had not made application to be heard in time he
should support the third reading.
E4rIIIIANVERS would vote for the re-committal of
the Bill.

Lord WHARNCLIFFE replied.
Their Lordships then divided, when there appeared-
Contents (for the recommittal) ... 28
Non-contents . . ... ... ..- 37
Majority against the recommittal... —9
The Bill was then read a third time and passed.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.
The supply of English W heat on t•ale in to-Jay's
market was very lirnied. Thu few parcels on offer
were disposed of at prices fully equal to those obtniutd
on Monday last. The accounts just at hand, respecting
the general apwacanee of the growing crops, are very
favourable. From abroad, 4,350 quarters of Wheat
have come to hand this week. belected samples cf
red and white sold steadily, at lull rates of currency. In
the middling and inferior kinds next to nothing was
doing. Notwithstanding that the supply of Barley was
small, that article met a very inactive demand, at barely
stationary prices. Malt commanded a moderate in-
quiry at late rates. The total quantity of atta, in-
cluding the foreign arrivals, was not large, yet the de-
mand was heavy. In the quotations, however, we have
no change to notice. Inman Corn gave way from Is
to 2s per quarter, without finding buyers. Beans, Peas,
and Flour as fait advised.

THE DEATH OF SIR R. PEEL, BART.

Sir G. GREY then rose and said—Now that all the
private business has been disposed of, I wish to move
that the consideration of all the orders of the day
should be postponed until the afternoon. I regret that
the House should have been put to any inconvenience by
this early meeting to-day, those orders having bees
fixed several days ago for consideration; but my Noble
Friend, the First Lord of the Treasury, is anxious to
take the first opportunity of the House meeting—
(here the Right Hon. Baronet bent down his head
and paused for some moments, being evidently moved
to tears), and before any public business; is procaeded
with, to express the feelings which he, in common with
every Me:cher of this House, and the whole country,
entertains with reference to that lamentable occurrence
which has recently taken place; and he is particularly
anxious that he should be enabled to do so when there
•
is a full attendance in the House; and I have, therefore,
to ask the House, it having now been constituted,
to separate at once, and that you, Sir (address-
ing the Speaker), should take the chair at
half-past four o'clock, when my Noble Friend
will be in his place. If the House agrees to that
motion, I hope no discussion with reference to it will
now take place.—(Hear, bear.) I have only ono word
more to add, and that is to express my deep regret, and
to apologise to the House for the unavoidable absence of
my Noble Friend, who was not present yesterday, to
concur w ith the House most sincerely in that most ap-
propriate mark of respect which the Howe unanimously
adored yesterday to the memory of that great man who
has been removed from us by the painful and mysterious
dispensation of Providence.
The motion was immediately agreed to, and the House
adjourned until Half-past Four o'clock.

SHERIFFS' COURT.-(THIS DAY

LOCAL ACTS.

Mr. EWART moved that it be an instruction to the
Committee on Local Acts (Preliminary Inquiries) to
consider the expediency of altogether releasing Members
whose constituents are locally interested in opposing
private Bills from forming a part of the Committee on
such Bilk.

Mr. BROTHERTON opposed the motion. He did
not expect it would have been brought on to-day. It
centaiuly would lead to some considerable discussion,
and he trusted, therefore, that the Hon. Member would
postpone his motion.
Mr. EW ART postponed the motion till to-morrow.

eleven o'clock. Those present at his decease were,
his three brothers, the Dean of Worcester, Colonel
Peel, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Peel, three of his sons,
Mr. F. Peel, M.P , Captain W. Peel, R.N., and Mr.
Arthur Peel ; his son-in-law, Lord Villiers; Lord
Hardinge, Sir J. Graham, and the medical! gen-
tlemen in attendance. Sensibility to pain had ceased
some time before death, and his last moments were
not disturbed by any physical suffering.
After death an examination of the body was made,
when a most important fact was, for the first time,
discovered, viz , that the fifth rib on the left side was
fractured. This was the region where Sir Robert
complained of suffering the greatest pain, and it was
probably the seat of the mortal injury, the broken
rib pressing on the lung, and producing what is
technically known as effusion and pulmonary en-
gorgement.
The family were consulted on the subject of a
post mortem examination, but both Mr. Frederick
Peel and Captain Peel objected to allow the remains
to be disturbed in any way, and the precise cause of
death will therefore never be ascertained. An appli-
cation for permission to take a cast of the fac from
an eminent sculptor, was also refused.
Lady Peel continued throughout Tuesday night in
a state of complete prostration, and yesterday morn-
ing her illness had so much increased that it was
found necessary to call in Sir Benjamin Brodie.
The Queen sent to inquire after her Ladyship at an
early hour. The Duchess of Gloucester and other
members of the Royal Family also sent to make in-
quiries, and his Royal Highness Prince George called
personally to ascertain the state of her Ladyship.
The Duke of Wellington called at one o'clock to
offer his condolements. The Duchess of Inverness,
the Russian Minister, and several other members of
the nobility called to inquire after Lady Peel during
the day.

Several of the principal mercantile establishments
in the City and at the west end manifested their high
respect for the lamented deceased, and their deep re-
gret at his premature demise, by closing their win-
dows—a proceeding almost universally adopted in the
neighbourhood of Whitehall. The flags of many
vessels on the river, and also on many publ.ic build-
ings, were hoisted half-mast high, as a mark of respect
to the memory of the deceased.
The body was placed in a shell last evening, and
the funeral will, it is expected, take place in the
mausoleum of the family at Drayton, near Tamworth,
in the early part of the ensuing week.
