FLANDERS MAIL.
(RECEIVED THIS DAY.)
BRUSSELS, MARCH 16.—8 y a Ministerial resolution of the
15th of March it is decided, that in addition to one packet
between Antwerp and Batavia and Singapore, fur which
service special regulations are made, there will be, in 1845,
regular packets; one between Antwerp and Constantinople,
touching at Smyrna, Athens, and Syra ; two between Ant-
werp and Bahia, touching at Pernambuco; three betweeen
Antwerp and New York ; four between Antwerp, Valpa-
raiso, and Cablao ; five between Antwerp and New York.
In consequence of the continuance of the cold, vegetables
are extravagantly dear, aed so scarce that many persons re-
siding in the distant quarters, find it difficult to procure any.
The farmers sell their cattle, being unable to feed them. The
supply of milk in the city is insufficient. Great fears are felt
for the crops. As for statistics of pauperism we dare not
touch on that subject.
The Impartial of Bruges publishes a letter from Ostend, of
the 14th, which says :—" The schooner belonging to the
royal marine is fitting out in our basin. Orders are daily ex-
pected for its departure for the late colony of Guatemala. It
will not be commanded by Captain Petit. —Brussels Papers,
March 17.

Two more of the persons injured at the execution
of the murderer Saville, at Nottingham, died last week,
making about twenty lives in all lost on that occasion,

ST. PATRICK'S BENEVOLENT
SOCIETY.

Monday being St. Patrick's day, the sixty-second anni-
versary of the Benevolent Society of St. Patrick was cele-
brated by a public dinner at the Freemasons' Tavern, the
Right Hon. Sidney Herbert/in the chair. There were also
present the Earl of Devon, the Earl of Clanwilliam, Sir W.
Chatterton, Sir Robert Campbell, Sir E. Campbell, Sir Bur-
gess Camac, Sir Ralph Howard, Captain Sir T. Herbert,
Captain Kennedy, General Caulfield, J. Emerson Tennent, '
Esq., M.P. • Mr. Sergeant Murphy, M.P. ; Right Hon. A. R.
Blake, Sir Edward Chester, and the Right Hon. Richard
Lalor Sheil, M.P.

After the cloth had been drawn, and the usual loyal toasts
disposed of,
The CHAIRMLN, in proposing the "Army and Navy,"
coupled with the toast the names of Sir Burgess Camac and
Sir Ralph Howard, both of whom responded to the toast on
behalf of their respective service.
The CIIAIA3LUI proposed " Prosperity to the Benevolent
Society of St. Patrick," and in doing so, he said that he felt
his position to be a difficult one, from the circumstance of so
many eminent men having occupied the chair, who had been
in the habit of proposing this customary toast for so many
years, and by whose speeches so many persons had been
excited to contribute to the charity; but there might be
some recruits present on this occasion, to whom he might
more particularly address himself. He had had the great
satisfaction of witnessing, during school-hours, the behaviour
of the children educated by the charity, and in justice to
those excellent men who sacrificed their time and attention
to the education of the children, he felt himself bound to state
that he never in his life saw a healthier or more well-con-
ducted body of children. The Society was in a state of
prosperity. He called upon the meeting to enlarge that pro-
sperity, and to enable them to extend the benefits of the
charity to many more of the children of Irishmen residing
in the metropolis.—(Cheers.) The toast was received with
universal acclamation.

The following subscriptions were announced, together
with many others,—Tile Queen, 1051.; the Queen Dowager,
35/. ; Right Hon. Sidney Herbert, 50/. ; the Archbishop
of Dublin, 20/. ; the Duke of Northumberland, 30/. • the
Marquis '
of Anglesey, 25/. ; the Marquis of Lansdowne, 20/. ;
Earl of Errol, 201.; Earl of Shelburne, 101. • Earl of Porter-
lington, 101. ; Viscount Ebrington, 20f. ; Lord Morpeth, 51.55.
During the ceremony the children were introduced and
were paraded round the tables. They all looked remarkably
healthy, and seemed all very well pleased.
The singing arrangements were under the direction of
Mr. Hobbs, assisted by the Misses Williams, Master Stephens,
Master Sullivan, Messrs. Hawkins, Roe, Chapman, Brad-
bury and Hatton. The Misses Williams were honoured
with an encore in the duet " We are two merry gay,
laughing fairies," composed expressly for them by Mr.
Hatton. The Coldstream band was in attendance and con-
tributed, by playing the national airs, greatly to the even-
ing's enjoyment.

TO THE EDITOR,.

SIR,-It does appear to us of the first importance to' the
world ,generally to ascertain whether poisons, such as
prussic acid, arsenic, &c., &c., have been introduced
by doctors with the bona fide view to the cure of dis-
ease, or for the purpose of making a trade of medicine.
Your readers will bear in mind that of all the schemes that
could have been devised in order to create a monopoly in
medicine, that of doctors declaring to a confiding public that
such poisons* as above mentioned were medicines fit and pro-
per for the cure of diseases when advised by them, was the most
effectual. Hear the following passage given in evidence on
Tawell's trial. It forms part of Mr. Champney's cross-exami-
nation by Mr. Kelly:—" The smallest dose which is reported
to have caused death was the case of seven patients in one of
our hospitals; a dose of 7-10ths of a grain was given to each
patient, and they all died in from 30 minutes to three-quarters
of an hour." Here is a pretty specimen of the manner in
*hick poor patients are experimented upon in the hospitals.
We ask, is it not disgraceful? But why, after such expe-
rience of the deadly character of prussic acid, do our doctors
still hold it out to the world as a medicine when " medici-
nally" administered by them, as they call it, which means
after the fee has been paid or " advice." We feel satisfied
that thousands are annually sent to their graves by such
poisons in the hands of inexperienced medical practitioners.
The more experienced know, perhaps, how to give them in
doses not to kill at once, but as to their being a cure for
any disease, it is, we feel assured, perfectly untrue. Is there
not a noble-minded Member of the Legislature to be found
who will step in and prevent the havoc which is made is
human life by these poisons, administered " medicinally,"
by calling for a full investigation of the sub-
ject? Wicked persons (as in Tit sell's case), when
such poisons are found upon them, say, " Oh, I take them
medicinally' by the advice of my doctor," and produce a pre-
scription to that effect, thus at once in a great measure setting
justice at defiance. We repeat, let there be a full inquiry into
this grave and important question—We are, Sir, your
obedient servants,

MORISON and MOAT,
For, and on behalf of, the body of Hygeists.
British College of Health, New-road,
London, March 17, 1845.
The reasons why doctors hold out to the publie poisons as
medicines, are made snore palpable by the two prints showing
the fallacy of the organic theory under all its forms. To be
had of all the Hygeian agents, price 6d, or Is. coloured. No
person who cares for his health should be without these prints.

THE WEATHER.—The severity of the frost has much
abated within the last two days, and except during the
night a more genial temperature prevails. A partial thaw
commenced yesterday, and the effect of the sun, which
should now be felt, on the 19th of March, has, we hope,
put an mit to skating for the season. In the parks
and Kensington Gardens but few persons were seen on
the ice, and the amusement was very indifferent. We
have now had a winter of nearly five months—one of

THE CONVICT TAWELL.

As yet no kind of confession is known to have been made
by John Tawell, who was found guilty of the murder of
Sarah Hart.

On Saturday the culprit became exceedingly indisposed.
Whether despair for a time had seized him, or his prolonged
state of uncertainty and s.ibsequent trial had overcome his
natural coolness—whether his mind or body was exhausted,
the one overtaken by remorse, or the other by sudden ill-
ness—it is difficult to say. He soon rallied, and upon re-
covering himself requested to have an interview with the
chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Cox. That gentleman was immedi-
ately in attendance, and remained for a considerable time
with the prisoner. Nothing is known of what transpired
upon that occasion.

On Sunday he seemed to have improved in health and
mind, maintaining his accustomed air of tranquillity or in-
difference. He did not attend Divine service in the chapel,
but much of his time is said to have been passed in mental
prayer—the devotion peculiar to the society to which he
once belonged. It is reported that the unhappy man's in-
terview with the chaplain is likely to lead him to a state of
mind which will prepare him for the awful doom that is fixed
for him, and earnest hopes of his confession are entertained
from this apparent change in his bearing.
There are various reports as to the day fixed for his exe-
cution. Tuesday, the 25th inst., will, in all probability, be
the day, although by some people the 4th of April is men
tioned.

(RECEIVED THIS DAY.)
BRUSSELS, Milton 16.—8 y a Ministerial resolution of the
15th of March it is decided, that in addition to one packet
between Antwerp and Batavia and Singapore, for which
service special regulations are made, there will be, in 1845,
regular packets; one between Antwerp and Constantinople,
touching at Smyrna, Athens, and Syra ; two between Ant-
werp and Bahia, touching at Pernambuco; three betweeen
Antwerp and New York ; four between Antwerp, Valpa-
raiso, and Cablao ; five between Antwerp and .New York.
In consequence of the continuance of the cold, vegetables
arc extravagantly dear, and so scarce that many persons re-
siding in the distant quarters, find it difficult to procure any.
The farmers sell their cattle, being unable to feed them. The
supply of milk in the city is insufficient. Great fears are felt
for the crops. As for statistics of pauperism we dare not
touch on that subject. •

yearly increasing, and an accumulating Assurance Fund invested is
Government and other available securities, of considerably larger
amount than the estimated liabilities of the Company.
The rates of premium are reduced to the lowest scale compatible
with the security of the Assured, and the stability of the Company,
thereby, in effect, giving to every Policy Holder an immediate and
certain Bonus without risk, in lieu of the deferred and frequently
delusive prospect of a periodical division of Profits.

POST-OFFICE.

Mr. EWART wished to put a question to the Right
Hon. Gentleman opposite. Since the penny postage
system had been established, a custom had sprung up of
sending small parcels through the Post-office. Latterly
these parcels had been opened at the Post-office. Ile
wished to know if this was sanctioned by the Govern-
ment? He wished to call the attention of the Hon.
Gentleman to another subject connected with the Post-
office. If a newspaper, with the sender's name upon it,
were sent from one place to another in the metropolis it
was charged upwards of as., but if he sent a newspaper
with his name upon it to the country it went free.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
was not r wai a that any such charge as that mentioned
by the Hon. Member existed against any department of
the Post-office ; and it certainly was not the intzntifn
of her Majesty's Government to have issued any orders
to the Post-office authori ies to do that of which the
Honourable Member complained ; therefore with re-
gard to the opening of the packet complained of by
the Hon. Member, he presumed there must be some
error. But perhaps it would be well to mention, that in
c,nsequence of the abuse of the facilities afforded by the
ehe .p rate of postage, some orders were obliged to be
issued. For instance, such articles as knives and
scissors had frequently been sent ; and upon one
occai.ion it had been discovered that part of a human
body had been transmitted to a surgeon.—(A laugh.)
In consequence of this, it had become necessary to make
an order prohibiting the transmission of flesh and fish—
(A laugh)—tend such ether article, or of knives or scis-
sors, &c.; but if any other packet had been opened, it
was against the orders ; and, indeed, he had heard of
but one such complaint, and that had bet n ordered to be
investigated.

for the operation of a stupid and arbitrary Act of Par-
liament, introduced by Mr. Spring Rice, to limit the size
of the Times, and other papers obnoxious to his surEn-
FIMAL legislation. That gentleman professed a desire to
extend the principles of free trade, and yet, with his wonted
consistency, he restricted their application with regard to
the Press—the true organ and expositor of public opinion I
We hope that Sir Robert Peel will correct the wilfulness of
the ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer, and restore the Press
to the free exercise of its own proper discretion in en-

WADE'S LONDON REVIEW.

This is an excellent number of Wade. It opens with
an admirable article entitled "Commercial aspects—
Locomotion and Railway Speculation," which gives a
short but succinct resume of the History of the rise and
progress of the Railway System. Many persons have
asked recently where all the money is to come from to
carry out the new railway projects ? To this question
the writer of this article thus replies :
.4 Do not despair, we say. With Consols nearly at par,
and money easily to be had at 21,4 per cent., without a single
one-pound note in circulation on this side the Tweed, and a na-
tional income increasing at the rate of fifty millions per annum,
there seems no ground for serious apprehension of forthcoming
instalments, if not from the present shareholders, from others
who may purchase theft liabilities. At all events, there will
be something to show for the outlay ; by interlacing the whole
island with iron roads, there will be a useful result, which is
more than can be said of every expenditure—the subsiding
Continental Princes to wit, or sending out capital to work
foreign mines, to open foreign roads, or fish up Spanish gal-
leons in the bay of Vigo.
" The flow of money to railways has certainly diverted the
surplus resources of the country from investment in the funds,
keeping down the prices of these securities, and preventing a
saving of public revenue, by a reduction of interest in the Three
per Cents. This appears the chief drawback, and is likely to
continue so long as the whole world almost is making tempting
offers for the loan of British capital, to insure the facilities of
railway communications."
" He's too much of a Gentleman" is an admirable social
sketch by the authoress of " Old Pictures." The Greek
tale, " Ambition," is continued, and we have, in addition,
several able critiques on works recently published.

stating that he had received 6/. from his uncle. In addition
to this evidence, Joseph Jenkins, the cabman who drove the
prisoner to Nathan's on the Tuesday night of the robbery'
stated that he met him on the ensuing Tuesday, when the
prisoner asked him whether he had seen any of the Thames
1 police-officers? Witness asked him what he had been doing,
when he replied that he had been taking some swag, and that
51. reward had been offered for him. This was the substance
of the evidence on Friday, and the defence then offered by the
prisoner was, that as regarded the cab, he had fetched it for
some sailors, who engaged him at the Tunnel, who had dis-
appointed him. With respect to the money, it was a sum
which he had been saving up from his earnings for a parti-
cular purpose, but being excited by a dispute with some
young women, he brought it with him to show that he was
possessed of it. Nathan told him it would not be safe to take
• it home with him, being the worse for liquor, so he gave it to
Mrs. Nathan to keep. When the prisoner was brought up
yesterday a fresh witness was called, whose evidence was
pretty conclusive.
John Frazer, a waterman, well acquainted, with the pri-
soner, was passing through Devonshire-street about half-past
ten clock on the night of the 2d inst , mid hearinehis_voice
at the honse No. 11 called out, "Is that you, Tom ?" The
prisoner made him go in, and witness found three women, a
man, and a little girl is the place. The prisoner put his
hand in his pocket, and exhibited a handful of gold to the
amount, as witness thought, or 20/. He also exhibited a sort
of sample bag, such as flour factors use, which appeared to
contain more money. He gave one of the women a sovereign,
and addressing Witness said, " G— strike me blind if I have
not been and done the mill by myself."
The prisoner, who yesterday made no defence, was sent to
Newgate to take his trial for the felony at the present session
of the Central Criminal Court.

THE ART-UNION.

Pyne's admirable paper on the Nomenclature of Pic-
torial Art is continued in the present number. The
observations on Light and Shade in the present portion
of it are very profound, and should be studied carefully
and meditated on by every student who would take rank
as an artist. The illustrations of this number consist of
a beautiful engraving, by Lerouge, from Horace Vernet's
picture " Le Combat de l'Affroun," and a series of exqui-
site wood-cuts from the pictures and decorations of the
Palace of Versailles. We trust that the following
announcement which appaars in the Art-Union is
correct :

" ST. JOHN'S GATE, CLElLKENWELL.—Notwithstanding a
report to the contrary, we are glad to learn that this venerable
relic, to which attach so many interesting associations, is likely
to be preserved, a subscription being proposed for the repara-
tion of the decorative portions of the gate—such as tapping or
testing each stone in the north and south fronts, carefully
rubbing those that are sound, and replacing those which are
too much decomposed with new stone, not squared, but in-
serted so as to conform with the present appearance of the
building. Th. Committee recommend carrying up the battle-
ments in stone in front of the angular turrets, to their original
height ; inserting new labels to the doors and windows— strong
courses and bands around ; new and proper mullions with
einque-foil heads to the large windows in the north and south
fronts ; removing the unsightly Roman doorway and shop win-
dow on the south side, and placing a new window and doorway
in keeping with the old gate ; and pointing up the sides of the
building with stone or slate set in good mortar, finished with
blue ash mortar to preserve a uniform colour."

consistency, he restricted their application with regard to
the Press—the true organ and expositor of public opinion !
We hope that Sir Robert Peel will correct the wilfulness of
the ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer, and restore the Press
to the free exercise of its own proper discretion in en-
larging its pages to meet the increasing demands of an
