Till ASSAULT OM VICTOR JULIES, THE TRAP= PERFORMER. ;6-i j IN RE THE ANGLINFRINCII AGRICULTURAL 'FRAHM° COMPANY (ttgrren). This was a petition for winding•up, presented by Mr. Charles Vane Clark, of No. 2, Hatton-court, late secretary to the company. g. From the allegations in the petition it appeared that the company bad been formed in August, 1860, and duly registered, its declared objects being the purchase and sale of land in France, farming, distilling, making bricks. importing cattle, and exporting . agricultural machinery, manures, cattle, horses, sheep, pig s , &c . The capital of the company had been fixed at 25,0001., in 5,000 shares each. The registered offices were at 2, Hatton court. The petitioter claimed 20;3/.14e. for his services es secretary. More than three weeks had clamed since demand was made upon the company for this amount, and the company had neglected to pay or compound. _ - 11.11 . r. Harrison appeared in support of the petition. He said the petition had been presented under the 67th and 6fith clauses of the Winding-up Act, upon the ground that the company was unable to pay its debts. By the 78th sec tion if demand were made of • debt, and three weeks elapsed without its being satisfied, this was made evidence of the inability of the company to pay its debts, and that was one of the grounds on which • winding-up order might be male. -- • • The Commissioner—ls the order opposed! Mr. Harrison said that the solicitor for the company had attended below, and had informed him that there was no intention to oppose the order, and had then gone away. The Commissioner—Let the case be called again to the court below, and if nobody attends upon the expiration of an hour the order will be made. Order acoordingly. SUMMONING WITNESSES UNDER DEEDS OF ABSANGENINT. Mr. Manus applied for a summons to examine a witness rider a deed of arrangement, which bad been duly regis tered under the 192nd section of the new act. The Commiseioner—l have very great doubt as to the propriety of granting those summonses. The erriitors hive repudiated the court for ordinary porpoises ; we were told that creditors were to be omnipotent ; and now they come to the court and ask it to help them. I hive a little doubt about my jurisdiction over strangers. There is nothing in the act to say that I shall have the same jurisdiction as in bankruptcy over strangers. Unless the matter is urgent I should wish it to stand over until some of the other commissioners shall have returned ; and then we will confer on the subject. It is very important in this matter that the proceedings should be uniform. IX II COLTMAN. The bankrupt, a carpenter, of Kensington, applied to peas his examination. His debts were 122/. only, chiefly due to one creditor, Mr. Willis, his late employer. Mr. liinibse opposed, sad charged the bwilcitipt with keeping tack tart of his estate. . . . iienirupt, in examination, denied having removed any of Ilia (molter. or having shown a handful of sovereigns at a public-house a few days ago, A witness named Hanson, in whose house the bankrupt had lodged, proved the removal of some furniture after the bankruptcy from the bankrupt's rooms to another part of the house. When the messenger came he did not take pas- SalgiOn of those goods. Bankrupt had since furnished and let a room in the house. Hr. Holt, who supported the banln opt, gave some (mei deace to show that the goods in question belonged to his cousin, who had bought them, and lent them to the bank rupt. His Honour said this was a very improbable story. Bankrupt, in answer to further questions, denied having ever bad any silver spoons or anything looking like them. (A Hie H- pour said be should require thecousin, Mr. Hefted, to be produced and examined in support of the stou rg sr e w . told by the bankrupt. If he did not appear, the DOTI made would be taken as proved against the bank-apt fhe examicatron must be adjourned for that purpose. IN RE 8h.LF01311.-APPLICATION YOB iIKLEASE. The haakrupt, a broker and commission agent, of Peck ham, appl;ed for his release from custody. M. Kimber opposed for a creditor who charged the bank rupt with contracting • debt by fraud, and vexatiously de few'mg an action. . _ It appeared that in May last the bankrupt was in busi ness in Mincing-Lm, and had ordered brandy to the amount of 301. from the detaining creditor. He denied haring pro to;ted to pay on the following Saturday. His debts, LOW 3:17i., were then under 100/. Mr. Holt. in supporting the appl , cation. contended that the case did not coins within the exceptions specified in the 112th section of the act of 1849. It bad been decided over and over again that a vexatious defence was not to prevent lankrupt obtaining his releoae. His Honour concurred, and granted the release. IN RE CHIENL -CASE OF AN ARTILLERY OFFICER. The bankrupt was described as of Sheerness, lieutenant in the Royal Artillery. He now applied fur his release from custody in Maidstone gaol. Mr. IL 6riffiths opposed. The bankrupt _was in custody on a nom, and he ought not to be discharged without giviegsecurity. The Commissioner—l think his commission is his security. If hedid not surrender be would be guilty al misdemeanour, and would lose his commission. Claude Nicholas Laurent, 50, cook, was indicted for un hwfully and maliciously wounding Victor Julien, with in tent to do him some grievous bodily harm. The prisoner elected to be tried by a mixed jury of fo reigners and Euglishmen. The prosecutor is an artist, well known for hie trapeze performances at the Alhambra and other place of amuse ment, and through an interpreter stated that he lived at No. Li, Wellington -square, King's-road, and the prisoner was his servant but for months past he had been in the habit of making indecent proposals to him. On the Bth of Sep tember he accosted him with indecent words, when wittier &Kidd such were continued that he would publicly denounce him. lie toll him that he was going to Manchester, and that be would not take him with him ; upon which he ap pearol to be very angry. About three o'clock the urns afternoon witness was going out for a walk, when be met the prisoner on the stairs, who had a knife in his hand, sod with which he stabbed witness in the left side. Witness upon that went up to his room, and told the prisoner that if he would not stab him again he would say nothing about it. lie went on the following evening to the Alhambra and performed, and told his (witness's) father what had happened, and in consequence of what he said the prisoner was given into custody. The wound bled very much, and be stopped it with a plaster. When wetness took off bin shirt it was completely covered with blood; he left it in his room. When toe witness met the prisoner on the stairs the knife was wrapped up either in taper or a handkerchief. He SIM the blade, but not the handle. Mr. Edward Love Webb, surgeon, of 9. St, George's-road, Pimlico, mid, early in the morning of the9th of Sept. be was called upon to see the prosecutor, and there found him with • wound on the left hip, about five or six inches long, running laterally, and, having probed it, he found it about five-eighths of an inch in depth. The knife produced would inflict such a wound. (The knife was about ten inches in length, and very sharp at the point.) It was not &dangerous wound. He was much surprised, however, to bed th a t w ith suc h a wound upon him he was able to go through his performances at the Alhambra. John Perkins, sergeant, 8.11, said he was called to the Pulecutor's house, and four-I the prisoner i n b e d there. "told h im the charge, and he made no reply. lie was taken to the station- bones .i.d witness afterwards returned to tLe house, and found the k ode produced at the top of the cupboard in the kitchen. In the same place he found • shirt in a tin bath, which was quite wet. There was also a pair of trousers on a clothes-horse, and they had appa rently been recently washed. There was a cut on the left sale which had been sewn on. In the second floor he found the prosecutor's coat, which had also a cut in the left akin. The prisoner cross.examined the prosecutor, but his dence remaiord unshaken. la his defence he said be bad to motive whatever to attack the prosecutor, and that the wined he had received was entirely the result of accident. M to the shirt and trousers of the prosecutor being wet, the voseeutor himself bad asked him to wash them. He had nh ill.feeling sgsinst the prosecutor, and therefore it ism unlikely that be would wilfully inflict this injury upon The jury having consulted together for some time, the foreman *aid they found the prisoner Guilty of stabbing, but tot a ilfully. The Assistant Judge—That is an absurd verdict. You must my guilty or not guilty. Gentlemen, you had better retire. The jury thee retired, and on their return the foreman mid they found the prisoner The Militant Judge said in this country the use of the knife was a very serious offence, and would always be marked with a very severe sentence. The sentence of the court was that the prisoner be imprisoned and kept to hard labour fur six months. TOE cAst Or NTITHETI RowARD MEANET. On the applicati at on of Mr. Nokia, Stephen Edward convicted the last session, was placed in the dock before Mr. Bodkin, the assistant judge. The Assistant Judge said he had been consulted me this case by Mr. Payne, and having given it some consideration he had determined to submit case upon it to the Court of Criminal Appeal. Ile did not wish to detain the prisoner in custody until the question wss decided, and therefore would allow him to be released on his entering into his own recognisance@ in the SUM of AO/.. and to find two substantial sureties in the sum of 401. each, for his appearance at the argon after the next held here, to receive ) ent if called upon, after the question had been to a omit of appeaL Mr. Ribton mid be wished to offer a few remarks, sod le tle first place to disclaim being mixed up in the ONO in any ' wa y secondly, to express • hope that Mr. Payne would draw the use expressly as he bad stated it to the jury ; suds thirdly, to say,that with respeetto the unseemly exhibitions which took place in the court on the former occasion t that he condemned them as strongly ea had been done by the learned deputy-assistant judge on that oocisioe. As it was required that the prisoner should give twenty four hour's notice of the hail he proposed, he was removed from the dock to the cell below. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 15, 1862. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) LAIII3ETH. ROBBERY AT ♦ RAILWAY STATION. Richard Barrington, alias Edward Leicester, aged 17, • notorious thief, who has been frequently convicted of felony, was placed at the bar before Mr. Elliott on • charge of breaking into the booking-office at the Annerly station, and stealing therein a sixpence and other moneys belonging to the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company. William Street, • porter in the company's mania., sta tioned at Annerly, said that on the day before while walking along the station he heard a noise in the opposite or down line booking-office like the breaking open of • door, and on going over saw the bookingeffice door had been broken open. On entering the office he found the prisoner behind the counter where the clock generally stood, with a hammer in his hand, and near the till, which was open rand empty. The prisoner instantly dropped the hammer, and he laid bold of him and took him to the sta tion-master's-office. On the way there the prisoner dropped something, and taking a sixpen c e and five-pence halfpenny in copper from his pocket said ' That's all the —money I had out of the till" A little further on he said, "Ns • lucky job for you my mate ran away , or else you would not have come out of the office alive . " The hammer produced is the same the prisoner had in his hand. Police-constable Robert Webb said the prisoner was gives into his custody, when he acknowledged that 6d. and bid. was all he found in or took from the office. He also said that if he had known there was only so small a sum there he should sot have thought of breaking op en • door for it, and when asked it the hammer found on him was the instrument he used in breaking open the door, he replied " No, that's not the sort of tool I work with." Witness found on the pri mmer 4s. 2d., besides the Hid. The prisoner had been convicted at the Middlesex Sessions in June, 1861, for tinning away with • suit of livery and a N. note be had been sent to get changed by his master, and having been pre viously convicted of felony was sentenced to four months' hard labour. He had also been convicted siuee then for felony, and wee • notorious thief. Mr. William Smith, the station-master, said he had been in the booking-office about half-an-hoar before the prisoner was found there, and locked the door on leaving. At that time there was but • small sum of money in the till. The prisoner, who offered nothing in defence, was fully committed for rial at the next Surrey Sessions. WANDSWORTH. THE SHOOTING CADIC IN BATITIUMA FIELDS.-RECOVZRY OF T 9/ WOUNDED NAN. who;;I;;; George Robert % y,a in custody since the Bth of September ou a charge of wilfully shooting Henry Cook, a grocer, with a pistol, with intent to murder, at No. 1, Thoresby - pl ace, Battersea-fields, was again brought before Mr. Ingham, for re-examination. The following medical certificate was handed to the magistrate • I certify that Mr. H. Cook has much improved, and will, in all probability, be able to appear at the court in the course of two or three weeks.—Joan C. RICHARDSON, police surgeon, dr., Battersea, Oct. 18, 1862." Inspector Lovelace, who has charge of the case, said that he saw Mr. Richardson on Sunday, and he informed him that he had no doubt the 'roundel man would be able to appear at the court. He (Cook) was able to be downstairs, to the surprise of everybody. Mr. Ingham supposed the wounded man would be able to attend in a week or two. Inspector Lovelace said in a fortnight. Mr. Ingham said the prisoner most be remanded for ano ther week. The prisoner, who made no observations, was then re moved to the cells. GREAT WESTERN OP CANADA.-(THIS DAY.) This day the half-yearly meeting of shareholders was held at the London Tavern ; Mr. FIRAD in the chair. The abstract of the report has beau already published. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, mid that there was n considerable increase in the gcods truffle. The y ^nl( r bat& was not quite so satisfactory, but on th- •••• the state of affairs was gond, although they mi.;lit • radar, the dividend was so. At the same time, —• • .1 them that the lj per cent. dividend for the Ise , . year had been honestly earned. The sum ac tually expended for renewals and maintenance was up to the 31st July, 1862, 2841. per mile. That might appear a large sum, but the expenditure on th e grea t li nes in Eng land was 3051. per mile. The opinion of the majority at um board was that they should not charge posterity for pest me and tear, but that it should be charged to current revenue. if, howeser, the opinion of the shareholders was different from that of the majority of the board, they would give effect to that opinion. (Hear, hear.) The receipts of the Detroit and Milwaukee line h ad increased satisfactorily. He did not believe there was any real divergenoe of in terest between the bondholders themselves. Their object was to increme the amount of traffic, out of the premeds of which they would first pay the interest due to the bondholders, and then pay the interest due to them. He believed that a recourse to law pr oceeding. would not prove satisfactory to either party. He suggested that a committee should be appointed to consider Ws subject. With regard to the dis pute between them and the Commercial Bank, they must wait for the judgment of the court before they could take any further action in the matter. He believed they were fortunate is having a gentleman of so much experience aa Mr. Swinyard as their new manager. There was a differ ence of opinion as to whether Mr. Swinyard should have a seat on the Canadian board. He differed from his col leagues on that point. After some further remarks, the chairman moved the adoption of the report. Mr. O. Semi, in a brief speech, proposed an amendment to the adoption of the report to the effect that the dividend should be increased from lj per cent. to 3 per cent. per annum. He said he proposed this amendment upon the suggestion made by the chairman that there was a differ ence of opinion in the beard as to what the dividend should be, and that it was entirely a question with the shareholders whether the dividend should be so increased. Mr. GIBSON seconded the amendment, after which a lengthened discussion arose involving a considerable amount of personal explanation with regard to Mr. Lance, one of the auditors,having written explanations of his conduct to a elms paper. The amendment and resolutions were then about to be submitted by the chair, when a long discussion ensued, in which it was suggested that the amendment should be with drawn, and Mr. Sums said the principle that the dividend should be increased being agreed upon, he would withdraw his resolution. The report was then unanimously adopted. THE BIRKENHEAD RIOTS. A MODEL PRIEST. The following extraordinary letter from a Roman catholic priest at Birkenhead appears in the Liverpool Illemirp of to-day : "TO THZ II;ITOZZ OF THZ LINTS/VOL UZZCORT. "Gentlemen,—ln the Mercury of this day I god an account of • meeting held respecting the late riot in Birkenhead. At that meeting wan read a letter containing an imaginary speech by me. Am usual in such cases, the writer does not give his earns ; but • certain Joseph Bay}.s vouches that be is a credible and respectable person. Perhaps he is the same very re epectable and very credible person who has set it abroad in the town that he saw Canon Chapman (who was more than 50 miles from Birkenhead at the tame) inciting the crowd to break the window,, Ice. Whoever this anonymous calumniator may be, I unhesitatingly state that no such speech was made by me, nor by Father Golden, nor by any other priest, and the writer of that letter must indeed have long ears to have heard what never was uttered. I did tell the people to go borne, and I did all Garibaldi • blackguard—l may have called him a viper, thou g h I d o not thi n k I did. It is a name which is more applicable to that ungrateful man who rushed to the priests to seek their aid to save his win dows and slandered them afterward; because at personal inconvenience and risk they had saved the town from riot and bloodshed. " I did not even know that this famous meeting of • debating society was going to be held until the RPV. J. T. Bayles, son of Dr. Bayles, arrived at St. Werburg's Priests' House, and beuged me to go to the scene of the commotion and try to quell it. At great inconvenience to myself I left the class I was instructing at the time, and hurried to Trinity Church, where I used my utmost endeavours to qnieten the justly-excited catholic..., and succeeded with Father Golden in dispersing them and preventing further destruction of property. " Though repudiating the speech put into my mouth by this very credible person, I wish it to be perfectly under stood that I do cot by any means lay the blame of this row on the catholice. " If misguided fanatics choose to call a meeting by large orange-ooloured placards headed 'Sympathy with Gari baldi 'in the very eentre of at least 15,000 catholic., they must take the coosequences and be answerable for them. " They say they will bold another meeting. Let them do as they like. I promise them in the name of myself and my colleagues that we will not again act policemen, but those who raise the storm may allay it.—Yours most obediently, " ROBIRT WRIGHT BIiCNDIUT, M.A. " St. Warburg's, Birkenhead, Oat. 14, 1882." GARIBALDIAN MEETINGS AT LIVERPOOL.--TWO aati-popery and Otribaldiau meetings were held lad sem hag in Liverpool —one at the Collegiate Institute. where Gavazsi lectured to some 3,000 persons, who crowded the building in every part ; and the other in Hope Hall, where a *umber of persons, chiefly Orangemen, were addressed on the subject of civil rights and freedom of discussion. A large police force wee in readiness to prevent a breach of the peens, but fortunately their services were not required. A row is expected, however, in Birkenhead tomorrow night, when the " Parli imentary Debating" Society are de termined to bold their meeting, which wee stopped by the mob last week.

There is little business doing in the railway market, but the variations in prices in moat instances tend upwards. Turkish Consolidis have risen about per oent., other foreign securities being inactive. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter'• telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 70fr. 75c., being sc. lower than yesterday. Consols are now quoted 931 to 1 for money, and 931, 1, for the 6th of November. The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 931, 1 ; ditto for account, 931; Three per Cents Reduced, 911, 92 ; New Three per Cents., 911, 92 ; Bank Stock, 237 ; India Five per Cent. Stock, 1091, 109 ; ditto Four per Cent. Debentures, 1863, 1011; ditto Bonds, 31s. prem. ; Five-and-a-Half per Cent. "aniseed" rupee paper, 1124 ; and Exchequer Bills, Marsh, 215., 18s. prem. There is little activity in the foreign stock market to-day. Turkish Consolidds are firmer, at 381 to 1. The external stocks are quiet. The loan of 1854 is quoted 82 to 83 ; that of 1858, 681 to 691, and the scrip of 1862, to 1 prem. Italian Five per Cents. are rather better, and Mexican and Spanish securities quiet. The scrip of the Russian Loan is quoted 14 to 11 prem. ; Venezuelan, 3 to prem., being steady ; Portuguese, 21 to prem. ; Peruvian, 2 to 1 din. ; Egyptian Loan, first issue, 89 to 90, showing a further improvement of 4 per oent. ; ditto second issue, 34 to 44 prem. Transactions are recorded as follows :—Brarilian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1839 and 1859, 100, ex div. ; Chilian Six per Cents., 1014, 4, 102, ex div. ; Egyptian Seven per Cents., 891, ; ditto second issue, paid up scrip, 881, 4; Italian Five per Cents., 721 ; ditto, for account, 721 ; ditto Maremmaua Railway, 73 ; Mexican Three per Ceuta., for account, 331, 1; New Granada, ex overdue coups. and hectares, 101, ; Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., C scrip, paid in full, 901 ; Portuguese Three per Cents., 185$, 47 ; ditto scrip, 2/, 1 prem. ; Russian Five per Cents., paid up scrip, 94, 4, 4 ; Spanish Deferred, 461 ; ditto Passive, 224 ; ditto Certificates, 91 ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1858, for account, 69 ; ditto scrip, 1, prem. ; ditto paid up, 681, ; Venezuela Three per Cents., for account, 291. No official news relating to the contract for the Venezuela Loan has transpired. It is, however, known that Mr. Mocatta has drawn for a large amount on Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. ; and the general inference is that the contract may be regarded as ratified. It is also rumoured that the customs duties are likely to prove sufficient to pay 3 per cent. at once on the old stock. The Corresponciencia Autografts of Madrid asserts that speculations in London are maintained with a view to mislead ; and that the government is resolved to take no measures whatever with regard to the recognition of the Committee's Certificates of unpaid coupons. About 77,0001. in bar gold was sent into the Bank yesterday. The Lord Raglan has arrived from Melbourne with 185,0001. in gold. Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. have received by this mail, by which, however, it is unusual to transmit, 3201. Bs. on account of New Granada dividends. _ _ _ .A — neiTrundertaking has just been formed under the title of the Standard Bank of British South Africa (Limited). The capital is fixed at 1,000,000/., in 10,000 shares of 1001. each, and power is taken to increase it to 2 1 000,0001. It is intended to issue iu the first instance 5,000 shares--a large number of which is stated to have been already subscribed for. The direction is respectable, and of a practical character. It is also a satisfac tory feature that the preliminary expenses will be confined to the actual outlay incurred. The progress of the British oolonies in South Africa during the last ten years has been most marked, and it is considered that the banking capital available in them has not increased to a commensurate extent. The rates of discount on first-class bills in the colonies range from 8 to 12 per cent., and money is employed safely at this high figure. The dividends paid by the present local banks varied last year from 12 to 22 per cent. per annum. The head office of the bank will be in London. An auction of the foreign redeemable debt of Spain will take place at Madrid on the 31st inst. The sum assigned by the government is 7,386 472 reels. The first ordinary meeting of the Indian Carr yi ng Company is convened for the 21st inst. ; the half yearly meeting of the Demerara Railway Company for the 30th inst. ; and the first annual meeting of the Roodee Iron Ship-Building Company for the 30th inst., at Chester. Subjoined is a reportwith reference to yesterday's indigo sale : The indigo isles (9,150 chaste) began this morning. It soon became evident that the orders for all kinds were very limited, and especially for fine Bengal : nearly every mark of such qualities was withdrawn, holden deman di ng the rates of July. Consuming and defective parcels reZieed about 3d. per lb. under last sale, but there were few im porters willing to submit to that depreciation, and large quantities were taken out. 2,237 chests passed this morn ing, of which 1,170 were withdrawn, 573 bought in, and 494 sold. Dry-leaf Madras and Kurpahe are quoted at par. Subjoined are the quotations of insurance, pa, dock, and other shares, as given in the Stock Exchange list of yesterday evening : Insaranoe.--Commercial Union, 41, 4, ; Crown, 24 ; Globe, 99li s rperial Life, 211, 1 ; Indemnity Marine, 161 ; Law 83, 1 ; London, 45 ; Marine, 100 ; Ocean Marilee, ,1, 111 ; named and Mersey Marine, 4i ; Universal Manse, 31.

New Seton shares are quoted 140 to 160, being steady at yesterday's advance ; North Crafty, n to 81 ; and East Caradon, 471 to 48. Foreign and colonial mining shares have gene rally been little dealt in. Yudanamutana are in demand and have improved. The mildness of the weather is so extraordinary ia the department of the Allier, that in the park of Bunn de Vance, near Ebrenil, lilacs and chosen trees are in full Gower. Beepberries, both white and red, and straw berries, are also abundant on the same estate. THEILORD CHANCELLOR'S LAND TRANSFER ACT.— Mum D•r.)—This morning the new Registry-offices in ola's-inn-fields, which have been prepared for the transaction of business in connexion with Lord Westbury's Land Transfer Act of last session, were thrown open far bodassa, • considerable amount of which was very soon effected. The act was fixed to come into operation on the lid of October, but the opening of the new registry alma was aseemarily postponed for a few days in cone masses of the difficulties attendant upon the first establish ment clan important public department, and the necessity of communication with other branches of the public service.

BRIGHTON AND DRERFOOT.—TEN-MILE RACE—A race between these famous pedestrians came off oa Moody last, at the Newmarket Cricket-ground, in Norwich. The distance was ten miles, and the prize a handsome silver cap. The course WY in capitol order, and was so staked out that six times round completed • mile. Deerfoot and Brighton appeared on the ground at about a quarter-put four, the former in his usual dress, and with the customary eagle's fea thers on his head. At starting Brighton took Melon, which he maintained throughout the first mile, completing . it in 5 min. 1 sec. ; at the next "lap "the Indian passed him, but Brighton very quickly recovered the lead. Running was then kept on very close. Brighton always slightly leading, till the ninth mile, when Deerfoot went ahead, but was MOM again passed by Brighton. This was repeated in the neat ' lap," and the ninth mile was concluded with both competitors running neck and neck, but the Milk boy et length went ahead, amid great applause, and was still in front at the conclusioo of the last " lap " but two of the race. Both then put oo fine spurts, but Brijihton made the running, and finished his fifty - n i nth "lap full 40 yards ahead. The next MIMI was ran magnificently, Donlon apparently doing his utmost to win, but it was too late, and the Norwich Milking amid the cheers of his fallow-citizens, taken up all round die course as he passed along, reached the goal the winner by about 30 yards.

Five men named George Davey. John Bromley, John Guinan. John Pocock, and Charles Copp all carpenters in the employ of Mr. Rowland Brotherhood. contractor, and engaged on the bridge of the Bristol and South Wales Union Hallway, crossed the Severn in a mailing boat to meet some fellow-workmen on the Chepstow side. On their way they obtained the assistance of Thomas Price, a seaman on board a vessel lying at anchor near the bridge, who steered them saf across the river. On their arrival at Chepstow they fou nd that their companions had erased the Severn by way of the old paaags at Anat. The six men , after partak ing of some refreshment, set sail for the return voyage, sod all proceeded well until they came to the mouth of Chepstow River. when the wind had in craned to a gale. Price, the steersman, reefed sail, and put back into the river, and endeavoured to per suade the men to remain until Monday morning, or until the gale hadiabited. Davey, however, would not assent to this proposal, and, having insisted on taking the helm from Price, turned the boat's head, at the mine time unroofing the sails. Tney had made the passage about half-way awns the Severn, when they were caught in • tremendous squall, between 2 and 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and the boat immediately capsized, and five out of the six on board were drowned, Price being the only one saved. His escape was somewhat singular. He clung by his little finger to the stern of the boat for some time, and wee a t I length washed oo to the sands. After the gale had abated the wife of one of the workmen saw hie figure, and baring given an alarm, Mr. Parnell, of the Passage Hotel, pro ceeded to the beach, with a powerful telescope, and at one recognised the object as the man Price. A boat was ill medutely put off to his assistance, and he was rescued after having been in the water for nearly two hours. All the deceased were unmarried men, with the exception of Davey, who has left • widow and two children. _ _ .
