DEATH OF A LARGE FUNDHOLDER IN THE WORK-
1101:1SE.—An elderly female, who, on the 25th of August
last, was taken to the workhouse of the Holborn Union,
having been run over by a cab in Liquorpond-street, has
just died in the institution. While in the workhouse no
information could be obtained from her concerning herself
or her friends, and all inquiries on these points made by
the officials of the union have proved unavailing. Her ap-
pearance bespoke her to be very poor, but from memoranda
found upon her since her death it appears that she is in
possession of funded property to the extent of about £5,000.
The sum of £5O was found upon her, the balance of which
sum, after payment of her funeral and other expenses,
will be handed over to the treasury in the event of none of
her friends coming forward to claim her property. The
name of " Miss Mary Bell" was written on a Stock note
found upon her, which is therefore supposed to be her
name.

THE RusslAN PRISONERS AT LEWES,—Three of the
Russian officers who were on parole in this town, and
three of the i*ivates who were in the war prison took
their departure,on Friday afternoon, for London, en route
for Russia, in exchange for English prisoners captured by
the enemy. The officers who have taken their departure
are Captain Von Essen, Captain Snellman, and Lieutenant
Pischulin, of the Imperial Horse Artillery, who were
taken at Bomarsund. A few days since one of the officers
on parole purchased one of Colt's revolvers of a gunsmith
in the town, and he subsequently received an order for
about a dozen more, but before executing it he consulted
a legal gentleman, and declined to supply them. These
circumstances became noised abroad in the town, and
eventually reached the ears of the local representatives of
the Government ; the result of which was that inquiries
were instituted as to the purchaser, and that having been
ascertained, the weapon was demanded from him and
taken.

THE MATRIMONIAL ASSOCIATION.-At Bow-street
Police-office, on Saturday, Mr. Edwards, hotel-keeper, of
Norfolk-street, Strand, who recently drew the attention
of the magistrates to the proceedings of the Matrimonial
Alliance Association, and who obtained a warrant against
the secretary, Lawrence Cuthbert, now waited upon his
worship to explain that, since he had laid the former
complaint, he had received a number of letters from all
parts of the country, from persons who complained of
having been victimised by the same society. One gentle-
man, at Colchester, stated that he had parted with £9O,
while other writers mention £25 and other sums as the
cost of their folly in entering upon the delicate negotia-
tions to which they were invited by the public circulars of
the " institution." Mr. Edwards placed some of the let-
ters before the magistrate, who said there was abundance
of law to meet such cases as these, if those who had
parted with their money thought fit to step forward and
prosecute.

WHILE the war forms the absorbing subject of
public interest, and occupies conversation to the
exclusion of nearly everything else, it would ap-
pear almost a waste of words to say anything on
the once-exciting topic of party politics. Never-
theless, we must not altogether lose sight of the
interests of party, the more particularly as the
conduct of Ministers with reference to the war
will necessarily come under discussion before Par-
liament. The question may, however, assume two
phases, which will probably meet with different fates;
and the course to be pursued by that large section
of the House of Commons, known as the Conser-
vative party, will consequently not be unimportant.

FATAL RAILWAY COLLISION.—A collision occurred on
the Midland Railway, in the parish of Leicester, on Sa-
turday night. The Burton branch of this railway joins the
main line by a gentle curve, about half-a-mile to the south
of the Leicester station. About 40 minutes past eight
o'clock, a goods train from Burton for Leicester, and which
was due there at a quarter past six o'clock, was just pass-
ing along this curve on to the down rails of the main line,
when it was run into by the down passenger train, which
leaves Euston-square at four o'clock p.m., and is due at
Leicester at five minutes past eight. That part of the
goods train which was struck was much shattered, and
the engine of the passenger train was turned over on to
the up line of rails. The driver and fireman escaped un-
hurt, but seven passengers were shaken, cut, and bruised,
and one, a lady, has since died. She was a first-class pas-
senger, and was found insensible on the floor of the carriage
in which she was travelling. A surgeon at once adminis-
tered some stimulants, and she was removed to Cook's
Temperance Hotel, where she died early on Sunday.
From documents in her possession, it appears her name
was Robertson ; she had travelled from Dorkington to
London, and had a ticket from London for Derby. She
had a large quantity of luggage and books, and a con-
siderable snm of money in her possession.

It is useless to conceal the fact that the ex-
penses already incurred in the prosecution of the
war have amounted to a very large sum, and thatthe
further reinforcements, which are imperatively
called for to a much greater extent than has yet
been supplied, will render necessary additional de-
mands on the Exchequer to a very considerable
amount. The voting of these supplies, and the
mode by which they are to be raised, form what is
usually considered the most important functions of
the House of Commons—leading in many instances
to decisions on which may hang the fate of a
Ministry. In an emergency like the present, how-
ever, it is of the utmost consequence that there
should be unanimity of opinion on the first great
question of sparing no expense, in order that the
war may be prosecuted with vigour. It is, there-
fore, satisfactory to know, from the public decla-
rations of those who are recognised as leading
men in the Conservative party, that it is not their
intention to offer any opposition to the demands of
the Ministry for the most ample supplies, or to in-
terpose any facti objections to the mode of their
being raised. InVis respect, therefore, the House
of Commons, as representing the voice of public
opinion, the tendency of which is unmistakeable,
will be unanimous, except, indeed, it may be the
small section who advocate the exploded fallacies
of the Peace delusion ; and, if we may judge by the

burning of JOHN BRIGHT in effigy, at Manchester,
they have not much sympathy even among their

own constituents

But if the Coalition Cabinet be able to obtain

the support of Parliament upon a question which
will obviously secure unaaimity, it does not there-
fore follow, that their conduct with reference to
the war will secure an equal meed of approbation.
On the contrary, we believe there is much which is
deserving of marked disapproval. From the com-
mencement of the war the sincerity of Lord ABER-
DEEN was open to grave suspicion—which his sub-
sequent conduct has tended to confirm. In his

experience of his sage counsels, Lord RAGLAN was
left to bear all the brunt of his dangerous position
miserably short-handed—his men enduring the
extremity of hardship and fatigue—until we could
not help suspecting Lord ABERDEEN would have
been better pleased at his defeat than to receive
the bulletins of the glorious victories at Alma, at
Balaklava, and at Inkermann. Many a family in
England now mourns the bereavement of father,
husband, son, and brother, cut off in the tre-
mendous struggles of which we have published the
details ; and the country mourns the irreparable
loss of such men as Sir GEORGE CATHCART, and
other able Generals. Had their fate been irreme-
diable, our grief at their loss might have been less
poignant, but we cannot remove the strong im-
pression that, had the reinforcements which are
now sent out with such celerity been despatched
when their necessity was first apparent, the vic-
tories so hardly gained might have been more
effectual, and won with far less loss. We are quite
aware of the uselessness of regrets for that which
is past recal, and the inevitable necessity of pro-
viding better for the future ; but the facts will
form an important element in the question when
Parliament is called upon to pronounce a verdict
on the conduct of the Ministry. They have no
plea of party obstruction, for the fullest confidence
has been reposed in them; and had they exceeded
all that was at one time anticipated, they would
far more readily have obtained an indemnity for
sending to the Crimea ten thousand men too many
than they are entitled to receive for having sent
too few.
