that of Neill, M.P., v. Clement, for an alleged libel in "Bell's Life in London," in which the court refused to grant a criminal information.

CRIME.By the statement returned to the Secretary of State's office on the 1st inst. by Marsden, the gaoler of Marlborough-streetoffice, it appears, that the number of prisoners committed to the different gaols, from that office alone, amounted, up to the 81st of December, to 3103, being an increase on the return made on the 1st of January, 1826, of 1676. Comparing this statement with the return made by him for the year 1813, the advance of crime appears lamentably out of all proportion to the increase of population, amounting within a fraction to a quadru

ple number. The following is an extract from the official returns for the last 14 years: 1813, 789; 1814, 902; 1815, 919; 1816, 1496; 1817, 1615; 1818, 1738; 1819, 1823; 1820, 1416; 1821, 1268; 1822, 1503; 1823, 2010; 1824, 1903; 1825, 2425; 1826, 3103.

SWORD FISH CAUGHT IN THE FRITH OF FORTH.-Mr. Slight, one of the assistant engineers under Robert Stevenson, esq., has sent to the College Museum at Edinburgh a remarkably fine specimen of the sword-fish, which was found, in the month of September last, lying on the banks of the Forth, between Stirling and Alloa. It is seven feet in length, perfect in all its parts, and will form a most interesting addition to the museum.
