FfiJLNCE . ' PARIS , Friday .-The adoption of M . id Tinguy ' s motion , which lenders imperative the signature of articles in journals , under pun of heavy fines , has created naturally a great sensation in the newspaper world . It aggravates enormously the already grieyons restrictions on the press imposed by tha amended bill of the committee , bat oversnoots so completely the mark of reaction as to render the rejection of the bill highly probable . The question of the stamp will be debated to day . Accounts from Chenrix , in the department of the Aube , state that typhus fever is raging in that commune .
The police authorities at Perpignan have made an important discovery of 3 , 650 ball cartridge concealed in the house of a person named Rosnen . A woman named Segard was guillotined at Nancy on the Sth , for having poisoned her husband and three children . . At the close of the Assembly ' s sitting yesterday , If . Casimir Perier proposed another additional paragraph , tending to make the provision concerning the signature applicable to articles , no matter of what length , in which individuals , or private interests , or commercial interests , represented by companies founded or to be founded , are attacked . ' Ibis amendment was declared b y the Assembly to be taken into consideration , and was referred to the committe for examination . Consequently , the fir . 3 l decision of Article 2 has not yet teen come io .
If the motion of M . Casimir Perier should pass , the government is resolved to withdraw the bill . This at least is the course dictated by the chiefs of the majority . As soon as this step was reported to be contemplated , several members ) who had voted for 51 . de Tinguy ' s motion , and in particular M . de Laooniie , declared that the cause requiring the signature of every article in a newspaper should be brought forward in the shape of an independent motion , in virtue of the initiative of representatives .
Whether tbe motion would pass in this shape is a Tery doubtful question . But-it would at least be seen what members had voted in the majority for M . de Tiaguy ' s raotion with the object of defeating the bin by " fastening that clog to it . Although the ^ minist ersuoied against the amendment of M . de Tinguy . it is generally , thought that they are not sorry to have this excuse for withdrawing their bill , -which is opposed by the < Patrie , * the Debats , ' and the' Co £ > titutionhel , ' and generally condemned bv their niost powerful supporters .
A les ; er from Beaucaire of the 9 ih inst ., mentions that the beat is so intense in that neighbourhood that thrae persons fell dead while working in the fields . The effect of the new Electoral Law is now be . coming knuwn , and the number of electors disfranchised by it is fully as great as was stated from the beginning by those opposed to it . In all the great towus , and especially in the manufacturing towns , the number of the electors 13 reduced from two-thirds to three-fourths . In Lille , for example , fte number is reduced from 15 , 058 to 4 , 524 . in Souen , Havre , Lyons , Caen , and other cities , the seduction is in the same proportion . In the country districts the reduction is not so great . The number in purely fisricaUnral districts is reduced from onethird to one-half .
A circumstance has happened here within the last two days , which has excited the indignation of the Poles resident in Paris , and which is considered C 5 a strong indication of the continental governments to be on good terms with the autocrat of all the Bussias , even at the expense of the principles by which they are supposed to be actuated . A celebrated Polish nobleman , who possesses very large estates in France , recently applied to the Preach government for a passport for Ais , in Savoy , where he had been recommended by his physician to take the baths . The passport was at Ottce granted by the French Minister without any difficulty ; but , on its being presented to the
Sardinian Minister at Pans for his visa , that functionary not only refused to sign it , but wrote across the passport that it was refused because it had not the visa of tbe Russian Minister . This refusal is thought the more extraordinary , because the nobleman in question subscribed no leap than 200 . 000 f . towards x ' ne formation of the Polish legion , which vent from France t 9 fight for the Sardinian cause and the freedom of Italy , when Charles Albert invaded Lflmliardy . No reason is assigned for this act of rigour towards an invalid , except the anxiety
of the Sardinian government to stand well with the Emperor ; but it is remarked that its efforts in that respect a » e not particularly successful , as may be gathered from the fact that the Minister whora the Emperor Nicholas has appointed to represent him at the Court of Turin has never proceeded beyond Paris , where he still remains ; and that he has no immediate intention of repairing to his post . It appears , besides , that the Piedmontese government refuses passports for any part of the Sardinian dominR'ns . even * to the military men who fought in its ranks and shed their blood at its battles .
Satukbay . —A long and interesting discassion took place on the third paragraph of the law on the press , which was opposed by MM . Banholemy St . Hilairc , Larochejaquelin , and Pierre Leroux . It was eloquently defended by the Minister of the Interior . On a division being called for , the clause was rejected by a majority of 339 to 227 . In consequence of this decision , political pamphlets wiU be as heretofore exempt from stamp duty . The result is a severe check to the government . The committee on General GrammonV ' s proposition for tie transferring the seat of government out of Paris has recommended , by a majority of twelve to three , that it should be taken into consideration bv a special commission .
Geaeral Fabvier ' s proposition for transferring Abd-er Kader to Alexandria or St . Jean d'Arc has been rejected by the Committee of Parliamentary Initiative . The formation of a camp at Versailles has been -finally resolved on . An officer of the staff of the division of reserve of the army of Paris was sent , two days ago , to mark out the ground it is to occupy . The site he selected extends from the Hippodrome of Versailles , in the Bois de Satory ,
to the gate of Cois Robert , near the village of St . Cyr . Tbe camp is to be first ocenpied by twelve or fifteen thousand men of the division of General Guilla ' oerV , and successively , it is said , by all troops forming the active army of Paris . The establishment cf this camp in the course of next month ex dies considerable interest ; because , in the opinion of many , it is connected with some further plans on the part of Louis Napoleon or of General Changarnier , which it is not considered prudent to avovr .
Scxdat . —The debate of yesterday on the Stamp was highly interesting , and eras signalised by two results of much importance . At one moment tbe principle of imposing a tax in proportion to the size of the newspaper was on the point of being adopted , hut two veterans of the press , tbe editors of the « Presse' and ' Ordere , ' MM . de Girardin and Chambolle , came to the rescue , and adduced arguments in favour of encouraging large newspapers , which had due weight with , the Assembly . The differential stamp duty proposed by M . Adelswaerd , and suppotted in a talented &peech by M . de Vatimesnil , was thrown ont , and a fixed duty , which was set at first at eight centimes , then reduced to six , and
finally fixed at five with the consent of the committee , was voted by a small majority . The other result was still more important , for one of the most essential features of the bill , the infliction of a tax of six centimes upon every sheet of publications on political or social subjects containing less than six sheets , was rejected by an immense majority , in spite of ihe exertions of Baroche , the only orator in the cabinet , who tasked himself to the utmost to prove that there was no other way of dealing with the pest of social pamphlets . The President of the Republic returned to Paris on Sunday night , at eight o ' clock , from Compiegne . he made the journey , tweaty-five leagues , in one
hour . Monday . —The 'Patrie' says , according to accounts received from Buenos Ayres to the 5 th of Hay , there is reason to fear that the negotiations opened with the General Rosas by the French go-Temmer . t will not be attended with a pacific result . Twenty-seven houses were destroyed by fire at BuTiiahanptenle Bas , Haute Shin . The damage is estimated at 152 , 075 ! . The fire broke out
simultaneously in two places . At Genevaiiers three cornstores were similarly destroyed . No doubt is expressed of these acts being the work of incendiaries . M . Lebat , an attorney , and editor of tbe Socialist journal I / Union Democratiqued'Arriege , has been sentenced by the local Court to thirteen months ' Imprisonment , l , 000 f . fiae , and tfce costs , for applying tO his own use a sum of money he had been employed to collect . An appeal has been lodged gainst the Kateacc .

To-day the law on the press . passedihrough j new phase , quite as startling as any that [ have marked this nnprecedenteddebatW" A » > f resolyea = to prove that its rejection of the propottd ; ap ^ c « Kon of the stamp to works of > non-periodical nature was not prompted by '' a metive in the leas' allied to liberalism , the ' A « 8 embiynaa adopted , by a majority , of fifty-four , a motion proposed by M . Dabeaux , imposing a tax of five centimes upon publications not periodical , treating of political subjects or of social economy , which are not at present in the course of being published , or which have not ) before the present law , become the property of the public , if they are published in one or two numbers , having less than ihree sheets of letter press of from twenty . five to thirty-two square decimetres . This result excited immense sensation . The division gave 326 votes against 272 in favour of . the amendment .
M . Runcey moved an amendment which obliges every newspaper that publishes ifemlktm of the romance kind , to pay an additional centime for the stamp . After a debate between trie mover , Emile de Girardin and M . Coquerel , the house proceeded to divide , when 351 voted in favour of the amendment and 252 against . M . Cordier moved that the duty should be reduced to half a centime for provincial newspapers . The Assembly referred this amendment to the examination of the committee . M . d'Olivier moved to raise , for the profit of the treasury , a tenth of thenett proceeds of advertisements inserted in newspapers . This amendment was , on the demand of the reporter , M . de . Chasseloup Laubat , rejected .
Notwithstanding the importance of the amendments mentioned above , the event of the sitting which produced the greatest stir was the hurried entrance of M . Baze , queator of the Assembly , into the Chamber , holding up a newspaper displayed in his hand , ont of which he proceeded to read at the tribune the first article of the 'Pouvoir , ' beaded ' Gradual declension of the Assembly into a state of weakness . ' M . Baze , in indignant language , drew the attentioa of the Assembly to this barefaced
invasion of its privileges by a journal which professed to support the government , and demanded that the responsible editor should be arraigned at the bar of the Assembly . The principal editor of this paper is M . Granier de Cassagnac , the writer of the series of articles called the solution' in the 'Constitntionnet' M . Rouher declared , in the name of the government , that he was quite ready to prosecute the journal , if the * Assembly thought proper to demand by a vote this course . M . Emile de Girardin and M . Cbarras protested against the prosecution .
M . Girardin , in the course of his speech , ad . dressed some severe expressions to the Mountain , whose members were not satisfied with him for screening the 'Pouvoir' from prosecution . , He reminded them that such a step was in direct opposition with the principles which they professed . To this a member of the extreme Left cried but : 'Speak for yourself ; ' and others reminded . him that he was not the leader of that , section of the Chamber , and had no right to dictate to it . Girardin , greately offended at being thus rudely apestrophised by a party for which he has exerted himself with so much energy , and at such great sacrifices , retorted— ' He who addresses such language to me is not worthy to sit in this Assembly . * These words produced a tremendous uproar , and formed one of tbe chief incidents of this agitated sitting .
The Assembly then , voted by ams and kve , and decided by a large majority in favour of arranging the responsible editor of the' Pouvoir' at thebar Of the house . Then the sitting broke up . TuESDAY . —The electoral list of the city of Bordeaox , says the'Pouvoir , ' were closed last week . The names of 3 , 000 bankrupts and 4 , 000 reprisde justice were struck out and searches were only made as regards 1848 , 1849 , and 1850 . ' In the National Assembly the discussion on the Bill relative to the press was resumed . An amend ment proposed by M . Ferdinand Laatejrie , to authorise the destribution and sale of all journals in the streets , was rejected after considerable
discussion , by 336 against 263 . M . Gouin afterwards laid on . the table the report of the committee on the Budget for 1851 . M . Gase moved that all journals or publictipns printed in France in foreign languages , but intended to be exported to , and distributed in countries situate beyond the seas , be exempted from the caution money and stamp dutyadopted . The Assembly subsequently voted another amendment , moved by M . Taschereau , who asked that the provisions of the law should only be applicable two months after its promulgation . M .
Bac next demanded that the stipulations of the present law should not be simultaneously pronounced against the author , printer , and editor , and that the latter alone should be responsible for the pecuniary penalties—Rejected . M . Defontaine then moved the following additional articles : — ' In all the political journals , one-half of the first sheet shall always be at the disposition , without any retribution in Paris , of the Prefect of Police , and , in the departments , of the Prefects and Sub-Prefects . '—Rejected . The entire law was afterwards put to the vote , and adopted by 390 to 265 .
Wbdnb 6 bay . —The law on the press was adop ted yesterday in the Legislative Assembly , by 392 votes against 265 , giving a majority of 127 in favour of the law . The only amendment of any importance admitted was one moved by M . Taschereau , which allows the newspapers now existing two months for making their arrangements relative to the signature of their articles .
ITALY , Letters from Rome of the 4 th , in the'Constituaionale' ol Florence , state that the Austrians are actively fortifying Ancona , and that the French are doing the same at Civita Vecchia . A man named Venier has been arrested at Rome for having a large bag filled with' nineteen , muskets , and several swords and daggers in his possession . The revision of Ceraushi ' s trial came before a court martial on the 2 nd , but the proceedings being stopped by the fainting of one of the judges it was
deferred until the 3 rd , when the prisoner was honourably acquitted . A British subject a native of H : ndoostan , had been imprisoned by the Austrians at Ferrara , and had appealed to the British Ambas . sadw at Vienna , for protection . The Pope ' s visit to Castle Gandolfo was deferred . His . Holiness had imposed an annual contribution of 100 , 000 dollars upon tbe religious corporations for the extinction of the treasury bills . Some riots took place on the 2 nd , on account of some persons having illuminated their houses . it being the anniversary of the French army ' s entry into Rome . -..,.-.
PRUSSIA . The Berlin journals and letters of the 12 th , state that Mr . Ward , the English Consul-General at Dresden , had gone to Cassel to attend the sitting of the Zollverein conference . The head-qaartersof theSchleswig Holstein army had been fixed at Sendsburg . The * Statthalterschaft had issued two notifications—one warning all traders and shippers of the coast that , according to the protocal ratified at Berlin , the Danish government is permitted to commence hostilities in Schleswigon the 17 th ; the ; other ordering the police of the Duchies to arrest and send beyond the frontUr all foreigners who cannot give a good reason for their residence , or fail to prove satisfactorily that the ; have sufficient meanB of subsistence .
The Prussian troops had begun to withdraw from the Dachies ; in their-retirement every precaution is taken to prevent any collision ¦ with the natives .
AUSTRIA . Advices from Seralin , of the 1 st inst ., announce that the Bulgarian insurrection may be regarded as on the eve of being completely quelled . The Reigning Prince of Servia has adopted vigilant precautionary measures upon his frontier so as to drive back any armed insurgent bands that might seek to take refuge upon his territory . The ' Austrian Correspondance * journal states that it has been shown by the declarations of the American President that
the United States were prepared to recognise the independence of Hungary so soon as victory had de dared itself for the insurgents , and adds that the Austrian government has held itself bound to protest against this resolution . Count Bernstorff , Prav sitn Minister , had returned to Vienna upon the 5 th « charged it is believed with a complete rejection of the ' suspension' propositions , but offering another mode of extrication , which it is supposed will be met with an equally decided negative .
The ' Werner Zeitung' announced on the 9 th inst ,, that ( hU Majesty , on tbe respectful proposition , of his Ministers , has been pleased , by an order of the 6 th inst ., to remove Lieutenant-General Baron Hay nau from the post of Commander of the Third Army , and from the full powers arising from the present exceptional state of affaivs-in Hungary , and connecttd therewith . ' No motives are assigned officially , but there exists a prevalent impression that the general , felling from the excess of 8 everity fatO the opposite extreme , has not shown' desired discretion in the coajlete and unconditional pardons accorded by him to pei 80 Miccintly condemned , especially in

THE BULGARIAN INSURRECTION . Letters have been received in Vienna from Semlin , to the 5 th inst . Omer Pascha had not marched into Bosnia with the Turkish army under his command , but with one division had marched towards Nissa , with the two commissioners from Constantinople , to inquire into the cause of the Bulgarian insurrection . It was believe * that the insurrection originated really in the tyranny and . oppreBBion of the Turkish officials , but that when it had broken out Russian
emissaries had done all in their power to foment and increase the ' feeling ' against the government ' . The fact or "Widdin being surrounded by . the insurgents was confirmej . The insurgents were reported to have increased in number . Thirty-five thousand men were reported under arms .. The , chief points at which they were collected are Niasa , Sofia , and Fillpopel . Communications are interrupted in all directions . > ¦ ¦ ¦¦ ' ¦ ¦
SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN . In withdrawing the Prussian troops from the DucbieB every precaution , has been , taken to avoid any possible collision with the inhabitants . In Flensburgh many persons known as active supporters of the Danish government have applied for the protection of a Danish force . In Apenrade an order has been issued forbidding any person to wear insurrectionary emblems , as cockades , ribands , or scarfs . The Dragoons of the Swedish neutral corps
have already left Haderslaben , and the other troops of the garrison will , follow in a few days , .. The no * tice issued ' by ihe Commission of government , that the Russian troops on hoard the fleet , now on ihe east coast of Schleswig , are to , be received in a friendly manner if any parties of them come ! on shore , has been read by the clergy from the pulpit . It is not likely that these ^ Russian troops will , land on the coast in , any numbers ; they are on . board the Russian ships for the usual annual exercise , :
The 'Berling ' sZeitungV says— 'Our treops , will advance into Schleswig immediately , but we repeat the government will do everything to procure a peaceable settlement of the question . ' _ ' .. i-; Baron Von Pechlin , one of the Danish Envoys who concluded the peace in Berlin , is to be ap > pointed to a high office in Schleswig . . On Sunday the 14 th and the . following day , the Prussian troops in the Duchy of Schleswig began their march southwards . A telegraphic despatch from Hamburg , of the afternoon of the 13 th iost ., stated that the Holstein forces had already crossed the Sohleswig . frontier and ead entered Eckernforde .
Another despatch from Keil of tha same date reported that eighteen Russian and three Danish ships of war were off the coast , about half a mile to the east of Bulk . The entry of the Danes into Rendsburg was daily expected ; a bsdy of Danish troops , 10 , 000 strong , would occupy Flensburg . ; The central treasury of Schleswig has , it is stated , been sent to Denmark .

Professor Webster had confessed the murder of Dr . Parkman . He states that the deceased went to his ( the professor ^) room on the fatal day to receive some money owing to him by the prisoner—that he provoked him without measure by taunting repreaches and threats—thurst his fist iu his face , and called him a liar , scoundrel , &c , and that in the heat of passion thus roused he ( prisoner ) dealt a sudden blow at tbe deceased , which almost im mediately destroyed his life . His confession Which is very long ) ^ ids that the thought of pro !
claiming the deed , and explaining the circumstances , never entered his head , but that he at once determined on concealment , and took , measures for that purpose with singular composure and skill . He , confesses to having afterwards cut up the body , and , having burnt several parts , thrust the trunk into a sink . The confession seems to be pretty generally be : lieved , but it is thought that it would have been of more avail to him if made immediately after the event . He solemnly declares that he never for a moment premeditated the murder , and asserts that his temper bas been always uncontrollable .
In Congress the slavery question continued to occupy the house , and there appeared to be but little chance of an early decision . From Canada we learn that the bill to increase the number of representatives in the Parliament to 150 was rejected . The address to the Queen in favour of placing the clergy reserves at the disposal of the Legislature , and also expressing satisfaction with the home Government , was adopted by a large majority . The American subjects detained by tbe authori . ties of Cuba continued under trial , the proceedings being conducted withi the utmost deliberation . Despatches to the United States squadron off Cnba had been forwarded from Washington , containing , it was supposed , peremptory orders for the enforcement of the application for the release of the
prisoners . Tbe great Table Rock at Niagara Falls had given way , but providentially the persons on it at the time were enabled to escape . The Viceroy bad met with an accident , which would prevent ber from ever traversing the waters of the Atlantic again , as she ran on shore on the 24 th ult . between New York and Halifax , and it was expected would become a total wreck

ORANGE PROCESSION AND OUTRAGE IN LIVERPOOL . On the 12 th inst . was revived one of the fooleries supposed to have expired , and ah Orange procession paraded the streets of Liverpool . No public announcemennt had been given of the intended provocative to disturbance , and the authorities were taken somewhat by surprise . The Orangemen met about nine o ' clock in the morning , at the monument , in London-road , and there to the number of 200 , formed into procession . Each wore an orange scarf , and nearly all the extra adornment of an orange lily in the coat buttoa-hole . Two or three bands had been engaged to countenance the nonsense , and alike
number of flags with orange fringes were borne by waggons . To make the length , of line the more imposing , the men walked two and two , with a happy interval between each rank . The procession graced only a few of the quieter streets , and not choosing to descend to any Irish districts , attended church at Cirkdale . There was really nothing remarkable \ n the procession , except that the bands stopped occasionally before a dubiously respectable house , and struck up once popular airs . ' Amongst the most chosen of the emblems exhibited were massive wooden bibles . The Orangemen afterwards din , ed at their respective lodge-rooms , where the usual amount of pious loyal speaking took place ; fortu hately no disturbance occurred . '
At the Liverpool Police-court on Monday InBpeotor Johnson made a statement , from which it appeared that three persons had been wounded on Saturday night from having received the contents of some fire-arm dfaohargedfrom the house of a man named Henry Wright , -who then atood ia the dock to undergo an examination as to his gnilt or innocence of the act . Wright ia the landlord or proprietor of a beer-house in Chadwiok-street , and '¦ is known tehold political opinions opposed to those of the Roman Catholic population of Ireland . The evidence of Johnson was to the following effect — That he was on duty in Great Howard-street on Fridav evening , and in the execution of his duty passed down Chaawick-street at about a quarter before nine o clock , at that time the street was perfectly quiet , and he passed to the end of Great Howard-street . returning again to Chadwick-street where he found a mob of nearly two hundred per-Ribbonme
sons . These were " n , " and were conducting themselves in a riotous manner , threatening to break open Wright ' s house . The inspector dispersed them , and left two police officers in the street with instructions to guard Wright ' s promises . The ni g ht passed over without the occurrence of any serious outrage , and on Saturday ( the following ) night , Inspector Johnson again visited the street , when Wright informed him he understood there was a conspiracy to attack his houso during the night , and if he were not protected he should employ fire-arms in his defence . The inspector placed two officers before the house , whom he charged to keep a good look out , and to give an alarm in case of an attack , when he . would rotur-n with assistance . Subsequently two additional officers were added to the guard , and the inspector went to another part of his beat . On his return to Chadwwtstreet , after a lapse of about fifteen mi-

nutes , he ascertained that two or three shots had been fired from Wright ' a bouse , and upon BUbsequenfc inquiry he went to the Northern Hospital , where he saw a boy from whose knee two slugs had been extracted . Another person . was lying in the hospital , ? h ° bad Deen injured in the legs . He was passing at the time of the transaction , and had no part whatever in the disturbance . Mr . Superintendent Townson produced a blunderbuss and a horae pistol , which had been fired , taken out of Wright ' a house , and with him brought to the Rose-hill station , Mr . Townson drew a charge from each of these projectiles ; they were loaded to the muzzle with slugs and shot . ' Police-constable 655 , one of the two officers
placed to watoh Wright's , house on Saturday evening , ' stated that he , with Police-constable No . 40 , were on duty beforo'tbe ' prisoner ' s'h ' ouseiaboutt ' en o ' olook on Saturday night j a great number of persons had assembled before the door ; they were ' heaving" bricks and stones through the windows of Wright ' s house ; they completel y set him and his oomrade at defiance , and succeeded itf driving them from their position . As they were retiring a cry of " Look out , police , " , or something to that effect , arose , ; and immediately afterwards witness heard a shot fired ; he and his brother officer ran back in the direction of the ' house , wheu ! another Bhot was fired from an upper-room window .
In reply to questions from Mr . Rushton , the officers stated that they were unable to state whether the premonitory cry came from the house or the mob . In proof of the violence of the assemblage it was stated that out of twenty panes in the windows , : nineteen were smashed by , missiles . The witness also stated , that when he got back to the house the prisoner Wright Was standing at ' his door ; the time which elapsed between the report from the window and witness observing Wright at his door was not in his witness ' s opinion , sufficient to have admitted of a person descending and taking up his position where the prisoner was observed when the officer returned in consequence of hearing the disoharge . of fire-arms .
The concurrent testimony of all the police-officers went to establish ' the fact of the outrageous conduct of the assailants , which , apparently , was without provocation , as no party colours were displayed irbm Wright ' a windows , or any other ' demonstrations of a party description ; there was ho association held at the house , nor any party in ,, connexion , with ' ' a political club . The only cause that could ; be assigned for such conduct vras , the fact of Wright having joined in the . procession on Friday , inferred from the circumstance of his alighting from a coach at his own door on the evening of that day . ¦ ' "" ¦¦¦¦" . . '" ¦¦ ' ¦ ' _ ' - ' v
Mr . Aspinau , the barrister , who . appeared professionally for the prisoner , put a few questions to the witnesses ; after ' which , " John Bvrnb was called . In reply to Mr . Rushton , he said he was employed about the docks ., He was called by a man named Songster , whose son'is lyingr in the Northern Hospital , suffering from the effects of w 6 unds , inflibted from the cause : above stated . The witness stated that , at the time of the occurrence of the catastrophe , he was standing at the entrance of the court in which he resides , and which is divided from Wright ' s house only by the width of the street . He positively , swore that the shot was fired by Wright from the Window ' of the upper , middle room : he further swore that he
had seen Wright in the room during the ten minutes preceding the firing of the shot . , . Mr . EvAK ^ one of the ; aurge 6 ns . qf the Northern Hospital , stated that he had extracted two slugs from the boy ' s knee . He described the Wound as a lacerated one , and considered , it dangerous . He had alao examined wounds on both legs of a gentleman of the name of Alexander Moss , which wounds , were received in the same manner , as the boy Sangster ' s . Nor was this the least of the misohief ; the same shot had hit a lad named Patrick Moon on the arm . This lad , liko the two preceding victims , appears to have been an innocent sufferer . His evidence werit to show he ,, was passing at the time of the occurrence . ; '
Mr . Rushton remanded the prisoner for a weekthe time stated by the surgeon as like to place Mr . Moss out of danger ; the boy Sangster might be confined for a month ., An application from Mr . Aspinall for bail . was refused , as was a subsequent one from the same gentleman , that the committal should take place at once . At an early period m the morning the mother of the boy Sangster was placed in the dock , charged by Mrs . Wright with breaking windows . In her defence the prisoner , an Irishwoman , stated that complainant ' s husband had shot her son . She was required ; to pay the amount of the damage , or be committed for one month .

How Letters mat now be sent on Sunday . 3 . — A correspondent says : — " Some portion of the inconvenience felt by the stoppage of Sunday postal labour is likely to be remedied ., A great ; number of the letters posted at every office in the kingdom pass through the London General Post-office , and the obstacles to the speedy transmission of correspondence now posted in the country on Sunday is its not reaching London on Monday morning , so as to be delivered in the metropolis , or sent on by the day mails .. To remedy this , the following . practice is already in operation in some provincial towns , and will be in operation , ho doubt , shortly in every town in the-kingdom connected with a ' railway , viz .: Parties write their letters for London and
places beyond on Sunday , and stamp them . They then enclose each , together with a penny Of loose postage stamp , in a half sheet of paper , directed to some one in their town who has a private letter-box attached to his street-door , into which , the letters are deposited . The owner of the box empties it before the last train leaves for London on Sundays , opens the outside covers of the letters addressed to him , secures the pence and postage stamps , and puts all the letters addressed to : London or elsewhere in a pavcel directed to the London terminus . An agent in London is waiting to receive it , and to post its contents at . St . Martin ' s-le-Orand . Thus , for an additional penny , a person can . send his letter to London on Sunday , where it arrives in
time to be taken charge of and sent on to its destination by the Post-office authorities on Monday morning . " A very handsome income must be realised by those who make a letter parcel up on Sundays . In such a town as Exeter , for : instance , not less than 2 , 000 or 3 , 000 letters are posted on Sunday , which pass through the London Post-office . Now , a . thousand pence is abovo £ 4 , and the expense of sending a thousand letters , each weighing half-an-ounce , in one parcel from Exeter to London by rail , is about half-a-crown . ' Thus a very handsome remuneration is netted for an hour or two ' s work on Sunday night and Monday morning , by two individuals , one in the country , and the other in London .

THERWEOTics—The history of medicine is by no meini flattering to science . It is questionable whether more is known of diseases , their cause , and their enre . at this moment , than in tbe time of Galen ; it is certain that diseases are quite ns numerous , and in the aggregate ns fatal . Every aso has produced some new system of artificial therapeutics which the next age has baniBhed ; each has boasted in us turn of cures , amd they , in their'turn , have been condemned as failures . Medicines themselves are the subiects of fashion . Is it not a positive proof thnt medicine ia yet unsettled j in fact , that it hns no established principles that it is little inore than conjectural ? ¦ At this moment ' says Mr . Pinny , ' the opinions ontho subject of treatment are almost as numerous as the practitioners themselves , Witness tllO mass of contradiction on the treatment of even one disease , namely ; consumption . Stroll attributes its frequency to the introduction of bark . Morton considers bark
an ettectuai cure . Keid ascribes the frequency of the disease to the -use of mercary . Brillonet asserts that it is curable by mercury , only . Ruse says that consumption is an inflammatory disease—should be treated by bleeding purging ctioling medicines , and starvations . Salvador ! says it is a disease of debility , and should be treated hv tomes , stimulating remedies , and a generous diet . Galen recommended vinegar as the best prerentative of consumetion . Dcssault . and others assert that contumption is often brought on by taking vinegar to prevent obesity . Beddoes recommended fosglove as a specific , Dr , Parr found fox glove more injurious in his practice than beneficial . Such are the contradictory statements of medical men ! ' And yet there can be but one tru « theory of disease . Of the . fallibility , and inefficiency of medicine , none have been more conscious than medical men themselves , many " of whom have been honest enough to avow their conviction , ' and now recommend MESSRS .
