Starvation i'm England.

The London Times says that al average of
one person out of twenty of the inhabitant. of
that metropolis is every day destitute of food
and employment, and every night without a
place of shelter and repose. The aggregate in
this condition is about 1OO,O 600 The editor
adds:
''Since England was England, the general
prosperity of the country has never reached 90
high point at the present moment. We
mark with complacency, the gradual rise Of THE
swelling tide Of wealth and luxury we take no
notice of the receding wave. Many schemes
have been devised by polite or humane persons
to remedy this acknowledged evil. The states
man erects his Poor Law Unions, and the phi
lanthropist his houses of refuge but still the
destitution continues. 1t is stated in the Regis
trar-Generars annual report for 1849, ''thatnear-
ly one human being died weekly in this wealthy
metropolis, from actual starvation" In the
corresponding report for 1851, we find that %
adults died from starvation, and 252 infants from
want of breast milk or want of food. In the
month of December 1851, FIVE adults died from
starvation, and % infants from hamilton"

The French expedition which left San Fran

on revolutionizing that country, and establishing
an independent government, with no idea of be-
ing annexed to the United States The Califor-

ihihSs in Harrisburg--The Bank Bills.
HARRISBURG, April lit announced here
with much confidence, by the opponents of the
numerous Bank bills which have recently passed
both houses of the Legislature, that Gov. Bigler
will veto the whole lot, with perhaps the ,excep-
ton of two or three which are regarded as ne
cessary. Not less than sixteen or eighteen of
these bills have passed, most of them through
both branches, and authorise an addition to the
banking capital of the State Of upwards of three
millions of dollars.
Several daring burglarieS have recently been
perpetrated here. The residence ofJudge Pear
son was entered few evenings since, and rob
bed of silver plate valued at $500. Several
other dwellings, shops, &C., have been robbed.
There is little probability of the Legislature
adjOurning before about the 10th of May. Most
of the important public business is yet to be dis
posed of.
