She denounced the truckling of England to Austria , jwhich she asserted had caused the shedding of the blood of many patriots ; defended Mazaini from the charges -which have been brought against
him ; exhibited the bloodthirsty nature of the Austrians ; and contended that in the event of the Italians freeing themselves from Austria , England should insist on the UTrSQch not interfering , adding that she believed Louis Napoleon would not dare to provoke a war with this country , as 'that ' would rain him . Miss White concluded by calling upon all to get up petitions to Parliament in favour of the non-intervention of foreign despots , and also to contribute their pence ; for , however small , the Italians felt deeply any sympathy manifested towards them by Englishmen . The fair lecturer Tvas loudly cheered on resuming her seat .

The personnel of the English Embassy has left Teheran . The alleged capture of Herat is still doubtful . Health op London . — -An increase of deaths is the effect which was generally anticipated from the late sudden changes of the atmosphere . The amount of sickness in a population , at any time , is measured only approximately by the mortality ; ami that part of it which
is fatal is of various duration , and is recorded , therefore , not in one week , but a succession of weeks .. The deaths in London , which , in two preceding weeks , were 1261 and 1158 , rose in the week which ended last Saturday to 1318 .

An inquest was held , at which the coroner ( Mr . Richard Blagden ) influenced the jury , according to the Bishop's assertion , not to return a verdict of felo cU se , and omitted to call ¦ witnesses who could have shown , what was the state of mind of the girl just bnfore taking the poison . The result ¦ was an open verdict , affirming that there was no evidence as to the deceased ' s mental condition . However , Mr .
Clark , the perpetual curate of the parish , not feeling satisfied as to the facts , did not perform any religious service over the body , but simply committed it with decency to the churchyard ground . The bishop thinks the coroner acted very wrongly ; but he wishes the facts to be inquired into , as , if the coroner was in the right , Mr . Clark was in the wrong , and must be suspended for three months . Sir George Grey ' a answer has not yet appeared . The "Weather in the North . —The Scotch papers report the loss of some lives in the snow .

The deck of the forward saloon was lifted
up in several places , and the water poured into the bertha below , and into tho engine-room and hold , in largo quantities . Tho force with which tho sea struck the ship may bo imagined when it is stated that one of tho forward pumps was wrenched partly from its position , the strong bolts having started , while massive iron stanchions and steadying bars , Bovcral inches in diameter , were snapped asunder . The boatswain ' s house was also stove in .

¦ . . . . ^ ' * ¦ .- ¦ . "¦'¦ ELECTORS ALIVE : The present Parliament is not expected to last beyond another session . Representatives , therefore , are active , and electors consequential , except in those counties and boroughs ' where the members are proprietors , and the constituencies estates . They make no sign , but await the pleasure of their lords . In otlier directions , however , where the , ¦ Reform Bill conferred real power on the enfranchised classes , t © observe uncommon agitation . Southampton is a perfect little America of partizan rivalries . Tewkcsbuiy , anticipating the political last breath of Mr . Humphrey Brown , coquets -with various suitors . Greenwich is weighing influences , and even in Lanark Mr . BailiiTI ! Cochease may be declined , with thanks , though he is offered by the powei'S of Hainilto 7 i Palace . Then , in metropolitan iLambetli , Mr . " WilxiAjr Williams has been showing-cause why he should bo promoted to the trusts once held by Joseph Hume . There are rumours in Glasgow that the ingenious Mr . JonN Macgiiegor is not again to represent its commercial integrity . Some enterprising householders in the "West Hiding of Yorkshire bavo been speculating on the production of a fine dramatic effect , "by depriving Tiverfcon of her own , and sending Lord Paxmerston into the Houso of Commons , as the colleague of UiciiMin Couden . No one would miss Mr . Denison ; but for such a constituency to elect such a representative as the Premier , would he as absurd as for Southwark to repeat the joke of commissioning Sir Cuarizes . Napier to act on its behalf in the halls of tho Constitution . Major Reed , the " little
Western flower , " has been warned of opposition ; tho Buckingham : interest will once more be worked in an attempt to rescue Aylesbury from Mr . Layard and the AxTOH > Ef-Gxnisrax ; the tires of faction will crackle in Bodmin ; and Dr . Lee is for the fourth time to disturb the stagnation of Bucking hamshire , Wo wish him all success ; but how comes it that three years after tho passing of the Reform Bill ho polled nearly fourteen lmndreo votes , and iu 1852 not half that numlcr ? Is it Liberalism that lias declined in Bucks , or is
it Di \ Lee ? i \ t all events , though Caludon Grorg r DU I is certain of a scat , an < ' $ - eient candklnto might press hard upon Mr . Dishaeij . At Bury , Sir Arth uit ItJr / roN , or some liberal of quiet views , should of lor tho electors an alternative in lieu , of Mr . . " Mwd-ERrcic .
