RELIEF TO THE CASUAL POOL—Last night, at
the weekly meeting of the board of guardians of St.
George the Martyr, Southwark, Mr. Boxer (the chair-
man) called attention to the report which appeared in
the daily papers, of an inquest on the body of John
Mason, aged 71. who appeared to have died in very dis-
tressed circumstances. The daughter had deposed that
about ten days before, her father, unknown to her, had
applied to the pariah authorities of St. George the Mar-
tyr, Southwark, for relief, and that a portion of a guar-
tern loaf, a little tea, sugar, and oatmeal had been given
to the deceased. Mr. Caslake said the report of the in-
quest stated, that the application was made ten days
ago, whereas it was made on the evening of the 15th of
October. John James Mason, aged 71, then applied for
a little casual relief ; he said he was very old and ill, and
that his daughter was also ill. He being informed of
these circumstances, took the name and address of the
deceased, who then lived at No. 27, White-street. De-
ceased then said he only wanted relief until Thursday,
on which he gave the deceased an order for half a quar-
tern loaf, an ounce of tea, half a pound of sugar, and one
pound of oatmeal. The deceased then said, that upon
Thursday he should come into some property, and then
he should not require any further assistance. He had
no wish to go into the workhouse ; if he had, he could
have done that long since, fur a friendly order had been
given him on Camberwell, which he had in his pocket.
After the deceased had received the order, he (Cas-
lake) desired Mr. Lockhart to visit the case, and to desire
the deceased, if he wanted further relief, to apply
again, but he (Mason) never made a second applica-
tion. The reason why he had ordered only two pounds
of bread was on account of the age of the demised.
Old people ate but very little bread. Mr. Lockhart
was then called in, and said, that within an hour and
a half after the order had been given he went to the
lodgings of the deceased, and he then saw on the
table about a pound of cooked mutton-chops and a pint
of porter. Finding that both the deceased and his
daughter were ill, he informed them, that in case any
further relief was required, to come on the next day
to the board. At this time he saw a friendly order,
directed to the master of Camberwell workhouse, for
the admission of the decersed ; that was dated as far
back as July, 1843. The deceased had been, three days
before he had applied for relief, removedjin a cab into
the parish. After the visit he neither saw nor heard
anything further of the deceased until last Sunday,
when he was directed to attend the inquest, but he was
not called. One of the witnesses who had been exa
mined informed him (Lockhart), that the bread which
had been given the daughter had been put into the
slop-pail, and that she afterwards sent the person al-
luded to out for a penny loaf. Mr. Boxer, Mr. Hoole,
and Mr. Moggridge, said, from the explanation which
had been made, it was quite evident their officers had
done their duty, and had afforded relief as soon as it
had been applied for.

BRISTOL AND EXETER RAILWAY.—(From b C,
respondent.)—The waters of the Exe were so
on Wednesday evening as to prevent the down trams
from London going beyond Stoke Canon, about four ,
miles from Exeter. The passengers and moils had 01;
t•ansferred to an omnibus, and sent round through
country to Exeter, and the passengers from Exeter .5
London were obliged to take the same conveys:way suit°
the engine of the down train returned with thenlfor
London. We understand the rails were under water
nearly two miles, and that an engine dispatched from the
station at Exeter to warn the down train of the danr"
ran off the rails.

PALPITATION OF THE HEART.—Palpitation super-
vening after lengthened intervals, and from the operation
of the more obvious and powerful causes, is disregarded,
and considered as a natural effect, and requiring no
special attention. After a time, however, the returns are
more frequent, more readily induced, and by much less
powerful causes. The more frequent recurrence of the
attacks excite more attention, and the patient's own ima-
gination, as well as the assertions of his friends, assure
him that all his distress proceeds from too much He in
the stomach." This view is confirmed by the fact, that,
probably, there is felt some nausea or a slight sickness in
the stomach; but a still stronger conflrmarion appears in
the singing or ringing noise constantly perceived by the
patient in the head and ears. Headache, too, although
often slight, sometimes only occasional, sometimes, how-
ever, incessant, are attributed to a bilious state of the
stomach, or to some irregularity in the biiiary functions.
