      After some further discussion , the hou » e went into committee on the hill , and after disposing ol one cldu-e adj-nirned .

The h / wse thsu again wtut iatocomnattee on the Metropolis Water BilL Lord SskiotjR approved the general scheme of the bill !

The Earl of Dbrbi thought it was the duty of the - joesa after the able statement of Lord L yndhurst , not to refuse tho inquiry . He was also of opinion that no lapse of time ought to be permitted to prejudice the case ofthe claimant should the committee report favourablv on its merits .

      aud manufantures . The condition of the pastoral classes was moat depressed and degraded owing in a gr « at metaure to a want of attention on tbe part of tbe state . The hon . gentleman referred to reports of committees of the House of Commons and of commissions from tbe year 1817 tol 83 i in confirmation of his statements ; and argued that if there had been a governmental department whoso duty it bad been to look into the state of tha working classes , no such calamities as those reports set forth would have occurred . The mortality that affected the hig her classes , taken at a per centage , was in the ratio of two per cent ., while in towns , among the neglected portion of the people , it was at the rate of four and four-and-a-half , and in some cases five per cent . Gould ti . is ba the case if there had existed a department whoso duty it would have been to overlook

      the condition of the people ? Since the report of tho Children ' s Employment C-jmniission , in ISiS , something , it was true , had been done to ameliorate the condition of tho working classes . ( Cries of "Divide , divide ! " ) The har . dloom weavers , to the number of 600 , 000 , were in a state of the greatest distress , and to these wore to be added tbe railway labourers , whose numbers also amounted to 000 , 000 . ( Renewed cries of " Divide . " ) And what wns the cause of the depression of these classes of our fellowmen ? It was owing to tho great changes m the social and commercial ' condition of the world , with , out any corresponding change being mado as regarded the labouring population of the country . The first thing necessary to be done was to provide for the educ ation of the le . It might be said that the

      peop Government hud already looked to tbat subject ; but , with what effect ? Beforo the Educational Committee of 1838 it was shown that provisions for the education ef the people was required for one-eight , and yet , on the average , provision was only made for the education of one-eighteenth or one-twentieth of the population . Since that period two governments had endeavoured to bring in measures for extending education ; but both schemes exhibited a lamentable deficiency . The average of the life of the three classes into which society was divided was this : — The average of life of the first class wos thirty seven years ; of the middle class , twenty-seven years ; and of the humble classes , twenty years . This disparity arose in a great degree from the neglect shown by the hig her classes to the condition of the lower . As a matter of economy , this

      subject ought to engage the attention of Parliament . The poor-rates were considerably increased by the non-employment of the people , while crime advanced in a very rapid progression . The increased consumption of spirits was another evidence of the unsatisfactory condition of the people . It was in vain that tbey resorted to goals and penitentiaries in order to reclaim men . It was beginning at the wrong end . They should educate the young , and teach the working man to improve his own condition . But to all this there were impediments arising from laws and customs which a consultative board would entirely remedy . He wag aware that some looked at this question as a matter of cost only . Well , as a matter of cost , what was it that crime alone cost the country 1 Not less than £ 11 , 000 , 000 sterling per annum . Tho poor rates was

      £ 5 , 400 . 000 for England and Wales ; hospitals , dispensaries , and alms , the necessity of which arose in great measure from neglect of the poor , amounted to £ 5 , 400 , 000 . The direct cost of the police , gaols & c , amounted to £ 1 , 500 , 000 . But to this was to be added the loss which society sustained from the illness of men whoso labour was of necessity abstracted from society . That he estimated at £ 2 , 000 , 000 ; so tbat the whole amount of deduction to be made from tho productive powers of labour on account of these various evils was not less than £ 27 , 500 , 000 a year . But this was only for England and Wales ; if they added to it half as much more for Ireland and Scotland , which would be £ 13 , 750 , 000 , it would make a total of £ 41 . 250 , 000 , to which might be added £ 10 , 000 , 000 for consumption of spirits by these neglected persons ; thus making a grand total of £ 51 , 000 , 000 expended annually on account of neglect , poverty , and crime in this country . He

      believed that one-half of this sum might be saved to tha country by improving the condition of the people . There were three things which it was essential to accomplish ; first , the instruction of tbe children ; second , tl . e pretention of the health of both parents and children ; and , thirdly , fair play and equal encouragement to their industry . A committee or commission , free from the bias of party , might be nominated by the government of tbe day , and would constitute a council which might be made a centre for the suggestions of benevolent men on whatever tended to the improvement of tht ' working classes . The cost would not exceed £ 2 , 000 , and , if that paltry sum were grudged , half of it might be found to try ths experiment . The causes of existing evils would be dealt with , instead of tho effects being removed , as at present ; tho ? e " coming events" which " cast their shadows before " miaht , by measure of anticipatien , have their pressure mitigated .

      Lord B . GaosvESon , in seconding the motion , expressed his regret tbat any impatience should have been manifested in the e . rly part of his hon . friend's address , because it tended to encourage an idea , prevalent not only among the working classes , but among a higher cl » ss , that the Bouse of Commons was net altogether disposed to entertain their grievances . The house would regret to learn Iliac this was the final and farewell address of the him . member for Shrewsbury . He thought tbe hon . memberfor Shrewsbury had fully waiie out his case , and hoped to hear from the lipi of his right hon . friend the Secretary for the Home Department some sentiments which would give encouragement as to the future .

      Mr . Walpole s . vid every one must acknowledge the zeal and benevolence which that hon , member had always manifested towards tha working classes , aud if he { Mr . Walpole ) thought tlie motion would at all contribute to the improvement of their social condition , on the part of tho government he would not resist it ; but he feared it would be not only useless , but detrimental to those classes . The motion had two object- —to obtsia information , and to suggest specific remedies . As to the first , ho doubted whi-ther more or better information than had been already collected

      by parliamentary committees could be acquired by a standing committee , or unpaid commission , consisting of two or three members , who would perhaps take up particular Opinions . With regard to the other object , he thought that individuals ought not to be encouraged to look to the government or parliament alone for aid , instead of relying upon their o « n exertions ; and there was s . chance that tho adoption of this motion would encouraged such an idea . With these views , Uq was sorry to say that , if the motion was pressed to a division , he must give a negative vote .

      The motion was supported by Csptian Scobel ) , Mr . S . Carter , and Mr . l ' acke , and opposed by Mr . P . Howard . Mr . Smset declined to cull far a division ; the motion was therefore negatived , and tho house went into Committee of Supply upon the remaining estimates , tho discussion of which took up the rest of the sitting . At tbe evening sitting , the house went into committe on the Improvement of the Jurisdiction Equity Bill , and some amendments bavins been agreed to , the bill was reported . The Master in Chancery Abolition Bill went through a similar stage . '' The other orders were disposed o ? , and the ^ house adjourned until Monday .

      Extensive Robbery. At The Marlborough-St...

      EXTENSIVE ROBBERY . At the Marlborough-street Police Office John Reeman , a private in tho Coldstream Guards , and Mary Ann Bacon , servant at the Grapes public-house , Porter-street , were brought before Mr . Hardwick for further examination , charged with having stolen a cashbos , containing £ 120 in notes and gold , from the house of Robert Townsend , landlord of the Grapes public-house . —Mr . Townsend said the female prisoner was his servant . On the 7 th of June , about ten o ' clock , after the prisoner had brought up his breakfast and had gone to a cup board several times where a cashbox was placed , she suddenly left the house , saying she wanted to take a gown to her sister ' s to bo washed . Prosecutor noticed beforo sho left the house that she wrapped up something in the gown . The prisoner had not left the house more than five minutes before the cashbox was missed . Prosecutor instantly suspected the prisoner , and procured the aid of the police to trace her out . After an absence of about two hours the prisoner returned , and

      it would be proved that the dress she took out with her was brought back in the same state . When tho prisoner returned witness was not at home , and when he reached home he found the prisoner already in custody . The police succeeded in tracing her to a public-house near the barracks , where the soldier , who was her sweetheart , was lodged with his regiment . The box had not yet been found . It contained two £ 10 notes , several £ 5 notes , £ 85 in gold , and a quantity of silver , amounting together to £ 120 . — Police constable Horsey said , when he took the female prisoner into custody she said sho knew nothing about the cashbox . —Mr . Townsend said , the prisoner knew the cashbox was in the cupboard ; she must have seen it in the cupboard when she was removing the breakfast things , — Inspector Monsklin said , if the prisoner were remanded ho oould bring proof that instead of going to her sister ' s to get her gown washed , as she said , had gone to a publichouse near tbe barracks , sent for the prisoner , and had given the cashbox to him . —Remanded .

      KEEPING THE COLD OUT . At the Southwark Police Court , George Mosely , a young mau of respectable appearance , was charged under the following circumstances . —A policeman of the M division stated tbat on the previous night , while on duty near tlie water side , he found the defendant lying on the pavement in a state ol insensibility , arising , as he supposed , from the effects of liquor , His clothes were also drenched with wet , and a stretcher having been procured , he was carried on to tho station-house , when , owing to the condition of the defendant , a surgeon was called to his aid to expel the

      contents of his stomach by means of the stomach pump . The policeman went on to describe that , upon subsequent inquiry ns to tbe cause of defendant's condition , ho ascertainedthat he had been one of a party on board a wherry , and that oa landing near Dockhead , he , for a wager with his companion , swallowed a pint of the strongest gin , and tbat soon afterwards , on his way home , he fell down in tho street , where he was found as described by tbe policeman deserted by his friends , and in all probability his life would have fallen a sacrifice to his folly if he had not been observed and taken to tho station-house . —The defendant , who seemed to have suffered from the eilects of what he

      had taken , said that he had no recollection of the wager , but that he fell out of the boat into the river , and that with the view of preventing his taking cold owing to his wet clothes , ha drank off a quantity of spirits . —Ml ' . A'Beekett said that it ought to be a lesson for him not to indulge in liquour to such an excess , as death might have ensued from the quantity he had taken . The magistrate then inflicted a nominal fine on the defendant for being drunk . " CADGING" IN JOKE . At the same Court , Horace Walworth , another weildressed young man , was placed at the bar charged with the following strange conduct : —A policeman stated that on the previous evening during a heavy shower of rain tbe defendant stood on Newington-causeway with his hat off , begging

      alms of the passengers , and imploring them to give him something towards paying for his night ' s lodging , adding that he was without the means of paying for a bed . The policeman , perceiving by hi ? dress and appearance that lie was not what is termed a " regular cad ger , " went up , desired him to put on his hat aud go about his business , or he would lock him up . He , however , upon finding the defendant was evidently the worse lor liquor , and that ho insisted upon remaining where he was , forthwith took him to tho station-house , and it was there ascertained that so far from his being without the means of paying for his bed , as he assurred the passengers was tho case , there was found in his pocket £ 110 s . 0 d . —Mr . a'Beckett said that as he had so much money about him , he must pay the usual fins for drunkenness .

Brouirh / im , after listening attentively to the evidence adduced , remarked that the case was one of a most painful nature . It bad been stated by the sergeant that tlie prosecutor was respectably connected , and he had certainly made his statement in so p lain and straightforward a way as to lead to no other inference than that he had spoken the truth . The prisoner was , it was clear , from the presence of his friend General M'Leod and another gentleman with him in tho court , highly respected ; but he ( t . ' ie magistrate ) felt that it was his bounden duty to send the case before a jury , — The prisoner was remanded .

      At the Lambeth Police Omco yesterday , Tbomns Cowing , a savage looking little mon .-ter , was finally examined on a charge of committing a most brutal assault upon tho person of a harmless looking man named John Cordy . It appeared that on the night of Tuesday week the prisoner asked the wife of the prosecutor , who kept an oyster stall in tho street , for twopenny worth of oysters on credit , and because he was refused he made a savage attack on the complainant , knocked him down , kicked him several times on the head and on a delicate part of his person with suvago ferocity , and inflicted such injuries that the poor man was in a highly dangerous state for several days . —It was intimated to the magistrate that more than one police constable had been disabled by the prisoner ' s brutality in kicking them ; that for this offence he had been tried and convicted , and had also been frequently convicted summarily for brutal assaults . —Mr . Elliott ; on tbe present occasion , convicted him in a penalty of £ 5 , or , in default , two months ' imprisonment .

      FATAL RESULT OF CARELESS DRIVING . At the Worship-street Police Station yesterday , Daniel Regan was charged with the manslaughter of Elizabeth Mellow . —Richard Mellow , the grandson of the deceased , stated that while standing at the door of their house , between six and seven on tlie evening of the 1 st instant , ho saw a heavy cart , drawn by two horses , coming down the street at a trot , and within a yard of tho kerb . The prisoner , who was driver , was standing up in tbe front part of the cart , with a whip in his hand , but no reins were attached lo the horses , that he saw . The deceased was endeavouring to cross the road at this moment , and had scarcely got off the kerb , when , seeing the danger she was in , witness called loudl y to the prisoner to stop , which he endeavoured to do by shouting to the horses ; but this seemed only to quicken

      their pace , aud the next instant the deceased was hurled toftho ground by the fore horse , and the wheel went over her body . Upon raising her up she breathed , but that was all ; she was senseless and speechless , with blood streaming from her mouth ; and uppon carrying her into tho shop of a neighbouring surgeon , he directed her immediate removal to the London Hospital , and she was lifted into a cab ^ fo i * that purpose , hut beforo reaching the institution she had expired from tho injuries she had sustained . —Mr . Henry Harris , one of the housesurgeons of the hospital , deposed , tbat upon tho deceased being brought there dead he examined her bod y , to ascertain the cause of her death , and found on tho left arm a very severe laceration and a fracture of the ulna ; four of tho upper ribs on the left side were broken , and upon feeling tho left collar hone he found that that was fractured likewise . Ho next made

      a postmortem examination of the body , and upon so doing found that , in addition to the injuries he had just described , both tho pelvis and left temple were also fractured , the latter very severely . Those fractures were amply sufficient to cause death ; indeed , that of the temple alone was sufficient ; and the passing of a heavy cart-wheel over her person as described would no doubt occasion all the injuries and fractures ho had stated . —The prisoner , who seemed very depressed , expressed sincere regret for the occurrence , which he described as purely acoidenial ; but Mr . HammiJi regarded it iu a different light , and , tlie depositions having been taken by Mr . Hurlstone , the second clerk , tho prisoner was committed to Newgate for trial .

      SINGULAR CASE OF POISONISG . Wicajt , Monday , June 14 . —Considerable excitement has been created in this town in consequence of its being rumoured that a man named John NichoUsand his family had been poisoned by eating cakes which he had picked up in the street , and , on inquiry , we learn that the report is only too well founded . Nicholls , who died yesterday morning , was thirty-seven years of a ^ e , and was a collier , lie Uvea in Clayton-street , Wallgate , in this town , and worked in the Arlev mine , at the Iiice-hall Coal and Cannel WorRs , ill the adjoining

      township of Ince , ^ About eighteen years ago he married a woman named Elizabeth Lawrenson , now called Bet Brush , but they subsequently separated , and about ten years since he married a widow named Ann Conelly . His first wit ' e being still alive , he was apprehended about ei ght months afierwai'ds mi the charge of bigamy , and , at the ensuing Liverpool A > sizen , was sentenced to six months' imprison ' ment . After his discharge he again wtnt to live with Mrs . Connelly , * nd they have ever since lived together as man and wife . B ? her he had three children ; one of them died soon afterwards , and the others—Sarah , aged six years , and Ann , agedeight years—we shall further allude to .

      On Saturday morning last IVichoDs went lo his work about half-past four o ' clock , and returned home about five o ' clock in the evening . IIis ( so-called ) wife and family were getting tea , and he , smiling , said , " See Nancy ( it being tho name by which he always called his second wife ) , I found two very nice cakes this morning , " at the same time pulling out of his pocket two cakes wrapped in a piece of clean white calico . One of the cakes appeared to be made of flour , and treacle , and the top was covered over with comfits of different colours ; the other was white , and nearly resembled an Eccles cake in appearance . lie gave her tiie cakes to examine , and she replied that they were

      vory nice ones , and then laid them on the table , lie took up the hrowu one and broke off a piece , and , putting it into his mouth , asked her if she would have a hit . She siud she would rather have a piece of the white one , and he accordingly gave her a piece of the cake , which she ate . He then gave a piece to each of his children beforeinentioned—Surah and Ann . A daughter of Mrs . Connolly , by her former husband , named Mary , who is perhaps about niiiCteen years of age , lived with her mother and Nicholls , and , being in the house at the time , she also ate a piece of the cake . After the cakes bad been divided , the woman a :, d her daughter Mary went cue to make a purchase at a linendraper ' s shop , leaving Nicholls getting his tea .

      In about haif-an-hoar afterwards they returned , and as they entered Clayton-street , Nicholls came staggering towards them , looking quite wild . This caused the mother to exclaim , '' Oh dear , Maty , does he not look as i ( ho were drunk ? " When they came up to him . he told them be was poisoned by eating tho cakes , and so were Sarah and Aan , and a child named Broxen . Mary went home to look after the children , and her mother took Nicholls to the surgery of Mr . Fisher , in King-street . When they got opposite a millinery shop in King street , kept by a Mr . ltiley , Nicholls told her that tbat was the » pot where he picked up the cakes , and he added , that when the cakes began to make him ill , it struck him that it was Bet ( his first wife ) who had done it . Mr . Fisher at once discovered symptoms of arsenic , and sent the women home with some

      medicine for the children . He ( hen gave Nicholls a stronsr antidote , and sent him home in charge of two men , himself following as quickly as possible . Mr . Fisher found tbe girls Sarah and Ann were both vomiting , ns was also a boy named Isaac Broxen , about four years and a half old , the son of a stonemason living in the neighbourhood . He therefore administered antidotes to each of them . We believe the boy received a piece of cake from one of the family , and at once ate it ; hence the sickness . A nei ghbouring woman , named Morris , also saw her child , a girl between two and three years old , eating a bit of cake which one of Nicholl's children had given it , , and she took a portion of it , which she ate . She soon began to vomit , and not long after the child was also seized with sickness , and Mr . Wright , surgeon , Wallgate , was called in to attend them . They both recovered the same night .

      Meanwhile Nicb » lls , his two little girls , and the boy Broxen grew worse , and about ten o clock Mrs . Connolly ( the second wife ) began to vomit . Two or three hours later Mary , the woman ' s eldest daughter , also became sick . Until midnight , however , it was expected that all would ultimately recover ; but , about two or three o ' clock on Sunday morning , Nicholls became very much worse , and he died about half-past four . Broxen died in the course of the same day . At a late hour last evening the woman was fast recovering , having ceased to vomit at two o ' clock in the morning , and the youngest girl , Sarah , was comparatively well ; but Mary and Ann were still sick , and very weak , though likely to recover .

      Shortly before his death Nicholls several times repeated his conviction that" Bet had done it , " His ( second ) wife says he made the following statement to her while lying ill - . —lie was going : to his work as usual ( about twenty minutes tp five on Saturday morning ) along King-street , when he found the cakes , which were wrapped in a piece of clean white calico , and lying on the footpath . At the time there were only two other persons in the street ; one , a man , who was about thirty yards before him on the same side , and the other a woman , on the opposite side of the street , about half-way between hiro and the man . The woman had a shawl over her heud , and he thought she must havo jnst dropped the parcel , as the man could not well havo missed noticing it . He believed the woman was " Bet . " She looked o » er her shoulder twice . It struck him tbat it was very Queer for a woman to be out so early in the morning . He followed her about 150 yards , and then she turned f > iF another way , and he continued on his way to work , thinking no more about it .

      In consequence of this statement , Mr . Simm , superintendent of the borough police force , apprehended Elizabeth Nicholls . alias EUzabesh Lawrenson , alias llet Brush , yesterday ( Sunday ) forenoon , at her house , Mitchinsou ' s-yord , Scholes , and subsequently he apprehended a man uauied Thomas Hughes , with whom she has been cohabiting lor the last eighteen months , on suspicion of being an accessory , It is believed that Hughes is the man who walked along KiiiK-atreet in advance of Sicholls . On searching tbe woman ' s house , Mr . Simm found two plain cakes ofthe ordinary description , which she said she baked on Friday for her own use . Another circumstance worth mentioning is , that on "Wednesday or Thursday lust , a woman went to the shop of Mr . Bavwise , druggist , Scholes , and wanted some arsenic , which Mr . Barwisevery properly refused to sell her . He believes the female prisoner to bo the woman , but cannot positively identify her .

We aro again experimenting by bavins : one bed exposed to all weathers , whilst tbe other has had no moisture for three months , neither will it till the bulbs are safely harvested , and stowed away in their proper places in the cabinet—Carnations and JL'icoteea . —These must be carefully watched as the flower-stems elongate , taking care that the ligatures are eased if they bind too hard on the stalk , and tying others up that may require it . —Pinks & nd Ranunculuses will also require constant attention .
