The West India islands are generally healthy. A serious disturbanos took place at Kingston on the 27th, originating in a misunderstanding between the baptists and their minister (Mr. Oughton) about the proprietorship of their large chapel. So great was the tumult that the authorities were obliged to all out the aid of the military. The result was not known when the packet left next day. The crops at the other islands look well, but will be late, owing to the want or scarcity of rain in due mason. They are tolet ably healthy, cholera having almost disappeared. At St. Thomas a good deal of yellow fever had lately visited the shipping. The Des lost second engineer and three others, and the Patina a like number. Demerara is healthy. An inundation, supposed to be connected with some subterranean pertur bation, has done considerable damage. Ma tecrolozical phenomena, unusual in Febramy, have also manifested themselves. Houses (says asi Royal Oazette) have " toppled down" befogs, extra ordinary winds; forest trees have also bees levelled or dismembered, and such a sea has brains wpm the meet as to destroy the seaward defences, break kokees to pieces and create an amount of destruction un precedented in man's memory occurring within so short a time. During one or two days the rain fell incessantly and in torrents; but although back dams were endangered by the pressure of the accumulating savannah waters, no great damage could be effected from this case—it only kept estates draining engines in constant employment. The sea has thoroughly saturated Kingston (p irt of George Town) with salt, killing, as a matter of course, trees and shrubs and fruit and flower with which it was ornamented, and which coat both time and money in the raising. There is also a mud deposit upon the land—in this country the certain cause of disease. The Executive and the Court of Policy have agreed to get out a Dutch engineer, accustomed to sea defences on the coast of Holland. A visitation such as this would, under ordinary circumstance', have been ruinous to a very large amount of property on the east coast to windward of the town. We are informed, however, that although strong kokerr, or draining sluices, were shivered as if they had been reeds, and many estates put under water, the mischievous influence of the salt was to a large extent counteracted by . the sweet rain-water with which the torrents of rain covered the ground simultaneously with the outbreak seawardly. Trade is dull, shipping abundant, and freights low. Cuba was still in a highly excited state, in conse quence of the expected descent of Colonel Kenny and his filibusters on sonic unprotected part of the coast. The Buzzard and Arab were looking oat to intercept them. All able to bear arms were bins enrolled. The Medea conveyed 200 Spanish trap from Havana to Trinidad (south side of Cuba) jut before she left. Chili continues in its usual tranquillity and pros- PeritY- Peru is at present tranquil, under the directorship of General Castillo, who holds the reins of govern ment until the meeting of Congress, about the middle of June, to reform the constitution and elect a Presi dent. The late President Echinique left Peru for the United States last mail car Panama. I NAVAL AND MILITARY. ADMISSION OF OFFICERS INTO THE ROYAL NAVY FROM THE MERCANTILE MARINE.

He seated pansies, as in the Peninsula, to be peepared, filled with medicines, to be carried oa horseback, for each regiment where medicine chests could not be ormaysd. If it was the truth that 0017 medicine chess were found at Varna he could not account for it, unless it wee the fault of the surgeons is leaving the panniers behind. The large medicine chests would be conveyed by carts. Regimental , hospitals were established at Constantinople, as soon as the force arrived, on • small scale ; but the general hospital was not established until June. The first head officer appointed to the general hospital was Dr. Men zies, and be remained in charge from its este blishment to the Ist of January. Preparations to establish the bans& hospital began in August. It was , act at first; expected that the sick and wounded would go to Scutari, but to Varna, and the preparations at first were , made at the latter plan. He considered sufficient authority had bees gives by the government to Lord De Radcliffe to sap * all the necessary supplies for the sick and wounded. He bid information from Scutari as to the state of the hospital et the time that Mr. li'Donald applied to him for letters of inaliertien, but he told him that his mission would he or gereematery—that every means bad bens taken, and that *e,, was an ample supply of lively oonefort that was squired. If it had been represented before the committee that there was a great want of medical comforts, all he could yin was that he had despatched all provisions and stores that wen necessary ; and he considered the medical authorities ,inhere had anything they wanted. He suggested to Mr. 111 4 Denald that the best way to apply his fund would be to the poor fellows discharged from the hospital, but he advised him not to give them money, as they would only obtain drink. It was the duty of tU medical officer to have pro vided against, or to have prevented, the want of medical comforts, er the state of things described by Mr. hi'Donsld and Mr. Stafford, it they had had the means. He could not positively say whether all the suffer ing and misery was caused by the conflict between the superior medial men and the purveyors. He knew that the purveyors did call in question the authority of the medical officers, but there were other medical officers who would give evident:le as to this. The coedits of authority between &lithe de eats connected with the administra tion of the medical department of the army, produced on the part of every puma of the disputants timidity and itation, that led to bad results. With respest to the disgraceful state of the " assmaries " at the hospital, representations wore mad* to ale r os T i a out improvements and remove ashowees u rrs and various experinteuts were made sad reenheik a maiamion that nothing could be does short of reneging them He suspected they were in this state while the Teas used them.

They called on Mr. George Pollock, attorney, of Eseez-street, to whom Mr. Simmonds was referred, sail he made a fair statement, they admitted, to them. He tad them he was extravegant. Mr. Pollock was now milled as a witness, and repeated what he had stated to the partial. Ho said he did not re present the insolvent as a man of property. From the evi dence in the mu it appeared that the insolvent had an account at Misers. Drummond', the bankers, and that had induced Mr. Shepherd to supply the clothes. Mr. Sint snoods stated that the insolvent spoke of his property at Liverpool and Regent's-park. The insolvent, on his examination, described the property he had expected and the order made by the Court of Chan. mu. He admitted that he had been very extravagant. He had been saves mouths in prison, and since October in the infirmary owing to ill health. He seemed to feel the es poem" now made of the manner in which he had contracted the debts in the schedule. Mr. Commissioner Phillips decided that as the complaint on the part of Uri:Osmond' and Mr. Shepherd was fraud,sad there being a mixed motive in allowing the debt to be con tracted, there was no fraud is the case.

I lent him, I believe, is all alimgll3ol., not more. I lent him 1001. at one time. He hodgenehast a fourth of the sum, about 601. I sever lent hL emo et the Deposit Company's cheques, which he had previously paid me. I remember • re-assurance for 1001. en a policy is the ninth of Lucas—but I did not lead pri mer Lessee cheque for that amount. At that time aaeaeßpuy were going to pay prisoner 1001. for strokes he bed rendered them, and having Lure's 1001. cheque, be 'seamed that la discharge of his claim on us, but he did so scathes my easiest, and I expoetalated with him for not paying USW' cheque into my hands. He, however, settled the matter before the beard, eo that it was after all only an exchange of cheques. I gave him the receipt before he re fused to five me the 1001. cheque. That was the first , transudes I had bad with the prisoner. I don't remember how many transastioas were included in the receipts I have elleded to of the 10th el June; bat 1 think there were more than two. Thera are sin la the beck produced, sad I took them all with use whoa I west to the pits owes °See. On June 10 I did not owe primmer one shilling.

George Collies said : I am a clerk in Messrs. Pogett's bask. The *hope for 491.16 e. 6d. has sever posed through our bank. Teo ebeqse is dated Bth June, 1864, sad ie crossed with the name of Paptt and Co. Edward Field Kingsford—l am a clerk in the Deposit Company. I am sot serials, bat I believe the name erased on the 491. cheque, dated Jane 8, is the prisoner's handwriting. Henry Samuel Hall—l am • clerk in the Commercial Bank of London. The 491. cheque was paid over the come ter on the 10th of Jane. It was paid I. eight 61. notes sad 91, 16e. 6d. cash; bat I cannot say to whom. The name of Pegett and Co. was not crossed on it at that time. The 261. cheque was paid to Glyn and Co. Mr. Stephen Crseknell, whose evidence in chief was taken in the last examination, was then mose-szarnieed and said : lam one of the directo rs in the Deposit sad General Life Assurance Compeay. I was aware these two cheques were not paid to the Homo Counties Company at the time they ought to have been, when the prisoner was dismissed, and 1 told him it was a most irregular trtheaction, end milled on him for an explanation with regard to the receipts, which should have been in the voucher book. At first he said he had paid the messy, and that he had got the receipts, but on my requiring him to produce them, he seat for them, but they were not forthcoming, and he then said he had given them back. I asked him why he had does so, and he replied that Mills owed Norris and him money, end he bad retained the cheques for it. I told him I shoald require him to produce the receipts nest day, when he sail he should have them. After this there was a debtor and creditor eatesat between the prisoner and the company. When prise/amid% the company's service, be left behind him the furniture as security for deficiencies. He had no claim against the company, baths made a claim for matey, which he alleged be had paid on the company's behalf. Mr. Mohler was consulted about the prosecutith within a month after the pri soner left. The prisoner was not authorised to pay cheques he received on our amount into his own bank, while the accountant was going through the accounts. Them is a Weds in the minute-book of September 14, 1868, by which it appeared the prisoner had done so with out our knowledge, and it was confirmed by a reso lution of the boa r d after receiving prisoner's remotes for doing so. I have received my fees as director from the pri soner by cheque on his prints banker. That was done in this way. At his suggestion a cheque for the gross amount of the directors' fees was given to him, which he paid into his beak, and thee for convenience sake gave a separate cheque to each of the directors for their fees. When the prisoner left we gave him a sum of 301., because he said he had no means. It was entirely • matter of charity. Whet' the Home Counties Company applied to us I had no notion that the premiums had not been paid, and that the risk had net been covered. Henry William Dale said—l am a stationer at Bradford, and was an agent to the Deposit and General Company. Oa the 26th and 28th of January I received two letters, in Width the prisoner requested me to forward all the money I bed la hand for the company. I accordingly remitted Nn a banker's draft for 331. 8 e., dated 30th January, 1854, sad made payable on Messrs. Williams, Deacon, and Co., but he ckaowledged the receipt of that draft, lid it w endorsed by him before it was paid. ti a n as obinson here applied for a remand. Mr. Parry said, as it was very late is the day, he would not object to an adjournment. Bat as he was prepared with a satisfactory explanation for every circumstance con wined with the charge, and as Mr. Bevan had experienced great difficulty in getting bail for 6001., and had also goae to great expense in meeting the charge, no fear could be entertained of his not surrendering, and he therefore hoped the worthy alderman would accept bail to the mooed of 3601., so as not to lock Mr. Bevan up again until the next hearing. Mr. Robinson said he had no wish to lock Mr. Bevan up, but as the company were dithovering fresh defalcations, he was anxious to have good security for his appearance hereafter. Alderman Humphery ultimately consented to accept one surety in 2601, the prisoner's own recognisance in 6001., and one surety In 1001., with 24 hours' notice. The prisoner was again committed to Monate in default. A woman named Ladd spilled to Mr. Corrie for advice. The applicant stated that her husband and herself haring saved a little mosey wished to have a house of their own to effect that, about a year and a halt ago, her husband entered "The Reformers' Permanent Freehold Land, Building, and Investment Society." Bach shire was 301., with an en trance fee of le. per share and a payment of 4s. monthly. They had paid in in all shout 701.—&11 the earning' scraped , together by herself for 25 years, for her husband was only a labouring man: he had been out of work for the last 20 weeks, and they had been compelled to apply to the parish to support them. Applicant thought that very hard, con sidering that she had paid a large amount of money with a chance of losing it all. Mr. Corns—How is it that you have paid money since your husband has been out of work ? Complainant—Why, to save my chance in the society I scraped together 11., which I paid in on the 6th of February. I afterwards wen; as I was much in distress, to see ii 1 could raise from them any relief on my shares, when I was told that I could not be assisted, because they had no funds is hand. I afterwards received notice, by letter, from a person named "Joseph Golding," who signed himself as secretary, that as the original stook of 2,0001. had not been raised, the estate purchased should be mortgaged to pay the expenses, and all the subscriptions paid into the society entirely lost, unless each sabecriber lent a helping hand. Mr. Corrie—Wben le the next meeting ? Applicant—This evening (Tuesday), when, according to the notice, unless something ts done the society will be dis solved. Mr. Cowie—This Is really • very bard case ; it cannot be that such respectable nemeses head this society as mailmen, directors, and auditors, weld sanction inch proceedings; they must be respectable men, as their names must denote. I see here Mr. Home St. John, of 18, North.bank, Regent's-park; Mr. F. Cox, 100, Newgate.street ; Mr. Wyld, of CW1'448,1181 • and Mr. George Thompson, of 128, Sloane-street, Chels ea. It is really too bad that the pew *odd be deprived of their bard earnings by these promises of beeentiag land or house proprietors. 1 11 1: 4 4 1 1 s dicant) Why did you join this speculation ? Applicant—By seeing such advantages held out in the papers, end also the names of gentlemen acting as our friends. Mr. Corrie—l really cannot see why you should not be taken in, for more learned and shrewd persons have been deceived by the signature of the government supervisor at the end of the rules; and I believe that there must be some thing wrong is sacks state of things . , that would allow of the government sanctioning the signature of one of its °fatten to rules which are contradictory of themselves, and so contrived as to cheat the poor, and throw their hard earned moneys Into Chancery, if they grumble at its lose. Is Mr. Tidd Pratt still the °Moor who supervises the rules An intimation was hers given that such was the fact. Mr. Carrie—Then all I can say is, the sooner some amendment is made, the better. (To applicant)—My poor woman, If yon had lodged Ibis large amount in the savings bank, without trusting it in the hands of speculators, you would have a little oompatency. As it is, I fear I cannot help you. Ultimately, as the applicant stated that herself and her family were starving, Mr. Corrie gave her 10s. from the poor-boa, advising her to attend the meeting of the sub scribers, and afterwards apply to the sitting magistrate of the Itarylehone Court, in whose district the location was situated, adding that he had marked • clause in the rules, which in his opinion showed that the directors of the society had no right to invest applicant's savings in the purchase of an Maw. ST. PANCRAS WORKHOUSE. A letter addressed to the Poor Law Board by a pauper named James, was read at the meeting of the paro chial authorities of Bt. Pancras yesterday, Thomas Bid Baker,Beq.,in the chair. The letter,which was forwarded to the board of 'Bruton by the secretary to the Poor Law Board, who requests an immediate explanation, states that the men's usual ward is in a very disgracefully filthy stew. Into this room twenty-three persons were nightly admitted, and to every three one rag, one blanket and one ceir mat tress is allowed, all of which were liter ally swarming with vermin. Te escape contamination the inmates, who have been respectable ratepayers, have recourse to slee ping there huddled together in a state of perfect nudity. The writer states that the ward launder a man who is habitually drunk, and complains that, however harshly the poor he treated, they cannot possibly see any of the authorities for the par pus of complaining. The reading of this communication was received with a burst of indignation from nearly all the members present, who said that there was not a word of truth in it. Mr. TOBNIR advised the authorities to inquire Wore they condemned the whole statement as untrue: he believed that it was not entirely unfounded. Mr. STOCKTON considered it dirgraosful on the part of the Poor-law Board to pay any attention to the communication, as they wars well acquainted with the antecedents of the writer. After a long dismission, it was resolved to remove James Out of the ward complained of into the body of the h ease ; and Mr. Cook, the clerk, was directed to acknowledge the receipt of the correspondence, and to inform the Poor-law Board that the sinews felt math surprise at their paying , attention to letter from the man James, with whose cha t renter they were well acquainted. Ox SATURDAY AFTERNOON, two well-dressed men were arrested us Pinson • charge of forging English bank notes. Ea they were crossing the Pont Notre Dame, guarded by gendarmes, on their way to the prefecture of police, one of them jumped ildo the river. His body was carried away by the rapid earrent, sad has set yet been found. •xtiridoy, March 2s. LORD CHAMBERLAIN - % OFFICE. Mason 13.
