SYRIA. Ivor A On the 25th, 270 of the prisoners from Damascus arrived. awl acre brought down to the lauding place on camels, to be shipped for Constantiuople. They were condemned to the galleys for life, and were for the mist part truculent looking Kenn dn•Ls, and of the lowest clam The exceptioue were very few. Seen of them had dieti on the reef, and another large batch was to follow, toge ther with these condemned to serve for life in the army. Their enibarkat was a strange scene, on which the Moslems looked with sullen faces and an evident monument of humiliation, while every available point of view in the vicinity of the land nig place where they were collected was crowded with Clirtstr.e., the contemplated the acetic with silent eatistactiou. The prisoners had their hands secured het wee,, two pieces of wood, about 18 lather long, with hollows cut to receive the wrists, faesei te g rude, but secure and very inconvenient hawk lids, and they appeared to be gene rally tolerably intlifferent to their fate. Yawl Nash has applied for reinforcements, and two battalions are to proceed to Damascus as soon as baizage animals are procured, from which it may he inferred that he has not implicit faith in the tranquillity which bogeys prevails at Damascus. Slur ktters of the 27th describe the city as in a net of state ef siege, most of the shops being closed, all bueirwes suspended, and arrests very numerous and frequent. A general consternation and anx iety existed, and the Chrittimis generally were but little inclined to rental,., having a limited faith in Fuad'e power to protect them, and no belief that when he left the Mordents would abstain from wreaking their vengeance ou them. It appears that none of the Jews were injured or their pro petty taken • nay, wore , I was told that many of the Jews ca rr ied bread and water to the Moslems, and in some degree abetted the attack on the " se amed race." I should state that my informant was a Greet Christian and therefore Ido not plate implicit faith on his account of the doings of a Jew .of Damascus, but lie added that the Jews bad stated that they hail been obliged to act so, to save their hetet. As yet there is no intention to move the French troops, although rumours to that effect have been current, hut the expeditionary force forms the great foundation for the inventive powers of the native and foreign cumin! manufacturers of Beyrout, and their name is legion. th.e of those incidents the danger of which I have formerly alluded to has just occurred at Gebeil, and it was related to ine by an actor in it. It appear+ that the Viceroy of Egypt is getting rid +4 a number of bashi-bazooka, and 10 if them who arrived here a few days ago took a boat to return to their homes at Tripoli, Latakia, and else where. The boat was obliged to put in to Gebeil, where they went on shore to purchase fruit, cke., when they were set upon by a troop of Christians from Zahle, Dei it ICaunner, Bchweigat, Beynnit, &c., wlio robbed them of their arms and v.duablee to the amount of about 200,000 piastres. The Turks took refuge on hoard their boat, when the Christians commenced firing on them from the roof of a coffee-house. An hills, bitant of Gebeil, with his nephew ' who is in the ser;ioe of an English merchant here endea voured to dissuade them from their nuirderous purism-, and to recover maim of the preperty, and sueceedetl at hut in getting the Turks to their home, and in calling a meeting of the notable@ of the town to protest them. This they refused to do, and the two men, fastening the gates, managed to keep out the rabble ft two days, until 250 nice ar rived from a neighbouring village, well armed, and with them a portion of the force employed to guard the road between Beyrout and Tripoli. Under this escort they succeeded in getting the Turks on leecol a boat, and under the escort of 90 men they brought them to Bey-rout on the 28th, with a Ne bo', of the property stolen. One of the robbers was r.crir Juni, but the people of the village just above that place rescued lulu, and set him free. The preservers of the Turks sent an ex po's to Beyrout for arwi-bante, but received so reply, mel now these haelii-bazooka, who are klo elems. are everywhere proclaiming their grie vance against the people of ( - Isbell, and with good reason. The roads in that direction are infested by some of the sconulrels of the towns above niew timed, and usunlers and robberies are frequent, no distinction being made as to the victims, a priest having been recently stopped and plundered. Such tiecniveuois will seriously complicate m a rt en , and render the pacification of the country inToettible. The Christians are as di ffi cult to deal with as the Moeleins, being as fanatical and perhaps more un rincip!ol. There are universal complaints of the Whew*. and apathy of the refugee from the muun taiu. The Turkish goverumout projected a road to the quarantine, and entrusted its conatruc titiu to the French ulhcers, who staked it out, and who °tiered to the able-bodied refugees 5 piastres a day, quarters and rations, to ivirk upon it, asking for 500 labourers. Not one has offered, and the French, like most of the foreign residents, are beginning to lo disgusted with these people, who Poem to possum no other qualities than tleoe of idleness and cowardice, with a dash of ferocity and cruelty when they can indulge in them without danger. We are still without env news of tic Ganges with French troops, now 14 days over due. 5,800 men have already arrived, and about 1,100 more are on the roil, but already a good many are iu hospital, and deaths have been rather unmernas. There is no tale yet of hotting the men, but we shall shortly have the tremendous autunnuil rains, and wilew they are under gnat shelter before that time eicknoss will infallibly make sere havoc among them Photo all Pcorricta.—Ye.toolay, about 3 o'clock In the lettermen. the attentioa .4 the wayfarer. ia I.mipte. hill we. pstandly attracted be a ...vac far more thrilling then air .4 these ticht•erspe feet. by wh:eh Bh.udin hor. er gratified ret the caw• in.iy he, the Unlit-aeon at tapir' ibis time twelvemonth.

LAUNCH or TEI ANSON. —A number of workmen were employed until a late hour this night in completing the arrangements for the accommodation of the ticket risiton and the members of the Admiralty, &c., who will attend to-morrow to willow the launch of the screw steam man-of.war ve,sel Anne, 91 guns, at this yard The launch will take place at a quarter to two o'clock, and the dockyard main gate will henpen for the free admi.sion of the public precisely one hour before that time. The Land of the Royal Marine Light Infantry and the Dockyard Battalion Volun teer Artillery band will be in attendance, and the whole of the workmen will be panted the usual holiday on the oc casion The ceremony of cbristening the vessel had been mane: be performed by her Royal Highness tbe Brin ell= ; but, from information subsequently received, it is probe' that her Royal Highness will be unable to at tend, and in that case the ceremony will be performed by the lady of Viscount Sydney (Lord Lieutenant of Kent). A NOVEL YACHT.—A large number of persons al.-cabled at Exmouth on Wednesday to witness the launch of a yacht, designed by Mr. Peacock, of fitarcross, and so constructed as to resemble • swan. The model of the vowel is lb:wick's celebrated Mute Swan, and the size four times that of the model, the length being 17ft. 61n.; width, 7ft. din.; height, ift. 3in.; with the head 16 feet above the water line. The sails project on each aide, in the shape of wings, and • novel mode of propulsion is adopted by wing • pair of feet at the bottom of the Yowl, which are conetructed of steel and web, to con trived that in moving forward the foot contracta, but in moving backwards it expands ; thus imitating the motion of a swan's foot, and propelling the vessel . blotion is given to these feet by means of a lever, worked like the handle of a di-renew. The yacht is provided with a cookery apparatus and • dining table. On removing the top of the table ladies um bah through an opening in the bottom of the vessel, with that entire privacy in which it is known that they delight. At the launch of this re markable vessel the tide unfortunately carried her down., and before she could be brought under control she struck upon a reef of rocks, which pierced her bottom ; and it will therefore be necessary to re-dock end repair her before her extraordinary qualifications can be tested— Waters Morning Ners. MEDICAL ARTICT OF THE VOLUNTEER MOVIE- Emil% —The Medical Tines end Gazette says of this move ment that it "is as timely as it is wise. It may be made an much the safety of the brain-tasked and body-cramped individuals of the people as of the country at large. Every one who has work to do should seek bodily strength to do it lens irksomely. It is not given to all of us to mitigate the original curse by gaining health and vigour, freedom of limb, and elasticity of brain, by tramping stubble', beating emir* following the bounds, cruising in yachts, or climb ing mountain pewee ; but each one may get the pence of mind which comes from a sense of duty done, the plea. nimble excitement of emulation, and all the bodily advan tage, of the heat kind of physical training, by enrolling him self in a rifle company and working with it steadily. Many a man may march away an atrophy, drill out the blue devils, shoulder arms till he can bear resolutely the fardels of life's troubles, and after all find se much gratification in kelvin/ the whiz of a bullet as others do in the whirr of a covey. MUSIC. spoirnoL - DONCASTER RAOIB-7ParDAT. THE OUP DAY. The badmen et the meeting was byes& to a most satis factory eeediusioa The racing during the four days was abundant and et the most satisfactorydescription. The officials worked with • cordial co-operation to carry out the :="nte In an efficient manner, and their efforts were with complete soccer. No greater proof of the increased popularity of the meeting could be adduced than the fact that the receipts at the Grand Stand exceed by over I,OOOL those of any former year. The authorities at the Doncarter Railway Station deserve especial cemmende• tioa for the regularity and order with which they con ducted the immense traffic during the week. To Mr. Leith, the traffic manager, and Mr. Wood, the clerk in charge, at Doocaster, the public are mainly in• debted for the admirable arrangements which were so efficiently carried out. The station was divided into two divisions. At the locomotive sidings were Megan. Mullets and Piggott, and from their divi sion alone were despatched on the evening of the St. Leger between 6 and twenty minutes past 7 ten special trams to various parts of the adjacent country. Mr. lamb had the superintendence of the " Shalcsprore sidings," from which the Loudon cheap excursion train departed. This train, by the way war so long that it had to be divided ; it consisted of 3 0 third-class and 20 first and emend class earriagee. The " south" trains were under the superinten dence of Mr. Brown and Mr. Beswick, of the Midland; the " north" trains, of Mr. Gleadall ; and the " South York• shire" trains under the management of Mr. English, the traffic manager; and when we state that Sheffield alone contributed 14,000 passengers, it will be readily believed that that gentleman found his office no sinecure. The defeat of the first for the Leger in each event for which they started created considerable astonishment, and the sioneses of Lords Derby, Zetland, and Portsmouth were hailed with greet demonstrations of enthusisam. Also- gether, the concluding day's sport was of gnat interest, bringing one of the most successful Doncaster meetings on record to a satisfactory issue.

Not only was ever• scat occupied, but the passages, and even the stairs, had their occupants, who were forced to be content with standing-room, and many were obliged to return home without obtaining admission, all the tickets having been sold, and the stewards not feeling justified in taking more half-guineas, when they could not accommodate the parties who offered them. But if the Inuster was large in the concert hall last night, it was nothing to the throng at the cathedral this morning, to hear the Messiah. We stated two days ago that all the floor tickets for the morn ing had then been sold ; but the stewards, finding that applications wore still pouring in, set carpenters to work, awl enlaued the area which is usually appropriated to the principal (15a) sitters, and placed some hundreds of extra seats M the aisle. Notwithstanding this there were many occupants of the choir who could find no sitting room elsewhere. The aisle tickets issued at these meetings generally reach on the best day to 600 orfidO, to-day there have been urea:chef 1,800 issued, these for the floor (prin cipal ovate) deing also issued to a much larger extent than ever known before. The principal seats, of course, were used by the gentry and nobility, the aisles being occupied by the tradesmen and middle classes, who are extremely musical in Worcester, though the rail brought a vast number from neighbouring towns. A grant many pea* went to hear for the last time Madame roc, llus rendering of the affecting air, " I know that toy Redassaart liveth f' and certainly, to listen to web a performanee as that of to-day was worth a long journey sad some treasure. it brought tears to the eyes of hondreib ; aoyl, as of course was expected, at the request of the Very Rev. the Dean it was repented. The collection at the door of the cathedral on behalf of the Clergymen's Widow and Orphan Charity amounted to 2431. fa 3d. It is expected that there will be a large sur plus to band over to the charity, to )old to the very large sum received in donations daily at the doors of the cathe dral after the oratorios and morning services, which, it should be state 1, Lave each day been crowded. . . To-eight there will be a mad boll at the Guildhall, which will wind ap the feetivit:es of the week. Nolte:ill 3IUSICAL FISTIVAL. —The fittings of St. AndreWa.hall have been now completed &bathe usual fashion, and seeni well adapted for the purpose. The fluor of the hall. which is a spacious, lofty, and perhaps it may be addei noble building, will be devoted to reserved seats at all the performance', as will two 'Ale galleries, except at the eventur eoucert., when a portion of the latter will be unreserved. at • lower price. The town council, maims for the 'MCCOY ..f the (retire/ have ioloptc.l the somewhat unusual counts of publishing a resolutioo which they hare agreed to—of cony e unanimously —on the subject, viz. : ."rhat thi. canoed, considering that the love of music which distinguidies this city is the subject of just pride, and that the tr.canial festivals are the result of long de.

THE CILIIPIONKIIIP or TIII TH•MIN.—The great race between Chambers, the present Champion of the Thames, and White, who aspires to that proud distinction, which is to take place on Tuesday next, from Putney to Mortlake, is the all-engrossing topic in aquatic circles. Chambers, who belongs to Newcastle.upon•Tyne, has been in Londos nearly a fortnight in sharp practice, accompanied by the renowned Henry Clasper, and in rowing adm ira bly. White, who was formerly defeated by Chambers, is cer tainly in much better condition than on that occasion, but the odds are 6t04 on Chambers. The men may be seen at their training regularly daily at Putney ; and, although Chambers is so deeidedly the favourite, the friends of White think his opponent will hare his work to do to beat him. The Messrs. Searle, the Thames Subscription Club, the London Rowing Club, and White, have chartered steamers for the conveyance of spectators. The stake for which the men row is 4001.

PAIBON ragarmszt 13 MIDDLIASI According to the statute in that cane made and provided, Mr. Wakley, the coroner, concluded yesterday an adjountedl inquest in the Coldbath-fields House of Correc tion respecting the death of a prisoner named Joseph Scott, aged 22 years, which occurred m the prison on the 7th inst. from long-standing pneumonia. At the first sitting of the coroner grave charges were made against the committing magistrates and the medical offioers of the prison of undue severity, amounting almost to downright cruelty, and that such severity was a prime element which contributed to the death of the man. The deceased came from Hampstead, and belonged to that clam of the population whose unsettled habits render them very disagreeable additions to any neighbourhood. On each Sun day, both morning and afternoon, it is the practice of costermorgers, carter's helps, ahstighter-house men, coal carriers, Sic., to assemble in parties of five or six, at some unfrequented part of the locality where they are residing, send out scouts, and entice younger boys to tom with them. At Hampstead the inhabitants, on their way to divine ser vice on Bondays, complain of these gangs of swearing gam biers very much. On Sunday, the 12th of August, the deceased and several others were caught tossing, and on the following day, with the view of making en example of them to deter other. , they were sent to hard labour for various terms, the deceased getting a month, although the act empowers the magistrate to award three months in aggravated cases. After he was sent to prison • gentleman of the Dame name as the deceased, but in no way related to him, thought he was unduly ecevicted, and that the sentence was severe. Having spoken to Mr. Mar shall, the committing magistrate, and told him that the deceased was too ill to bear hard labour, that gentleman hastened to Mr. Wakefield, the prison surgeon, but found that the hard labour had already been remitted. The deceased went into the in firmary soon afterwards and died of pneumonia, hut he had • complication of diseases, the result of a dissipated life. Mr. Scott, who had taken up the case, wrote a "stinging . " letter to the coroner about the treatment of the men in prison, and Mr. Wakley, in order to sift the matter tho- roughly, en= an independent medical gaaslemsa wane a p6iiJnonem ennunueuooand report. Both Mr. Scott and Mr. Marshall were iu attendance yesterday, and Mr. Scott's letter was read to the jury. He stated that further inquiries since writing it convinced him that he had been entirely misinformed about the deceased's respectability, and about some other points, so that he desired to withdraw the letter. He said his information waa derived from the deceased's mother, whom he had known for about two yews, and who averred that her son was • respectable, hard-working young man. Mr. Inspector Webb, of the 8 division, however, put another complexion on the affair, and proved that the man had been five times in custody for various offences, larceny among the number, and the prison warders also proved hav ing had charge of him on • former ooession and that he was the associate of the worst characters ar ound Hampstead. Mr. Scott was completely misled ,by the asseverations of the mother, hence his " warm " letter to the coroner. It was shown that he made no complaint of illness at the time of conviction, and that when he did so in the prison, and his statement was examined, he was immediately attended to and taken into the infirmary. He was only twice on the treadmill'. When in the infirmary) he had fish, mutton broth, beef tea, wine, gin and water, eggs, milk, arrowroot, in fact, everything he asked for or wished. This was proved both by the medical books and the testimony of other prisoners. The coroner examined every one who had had anything to do with the man, from the moment he entered the prison until he was put into his coffin, and was glad to find there was not one tittle of evidence to invert the very serious complaints made. The average number of prisoners in the prison is never under 1,500, and tho deaths upon that num ber are only about one per cent. The coroner very ably summed up the whole case, and the jury returned a verdict in accordance with the finding of the medical gentlemen who examined the body, to the effect that death was the result of purely natural mutes.

LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER RAILWAY. A special general meeting of proprietors was held yesterday at the offices in Moorgate-street to authorise the company, under the powers of the London, Dover, and Chatham Capital Act, Ig6o, to borrow on mortgage or hood any sum or sums not exceeding in the whole 30,J00/. Lord Haws, in the chair. Mr. HOLBOYD read the clause of the act of parliament which gave powers to the company to borrow from time to time on mortgage the sum above stated for the purposes of the western extension to be a charge on that extension, but not until the additional capital of 90,000/. authorise d by that act to be raised for the purposes of each extension was subscribed for, and one-half of the amount actually paid up. The secre tary added that the whole 90,0001. was paid up. Consequently they were in a position to exercise the borrowing powers as proposed. Mr. HARTRIDUE wished to know whether this wee • meeting of the London, Chatham, and Dover, Eeet-Kent shareholders—if so he had received no notice. The Sacttersar said it was • meeting of the London, Chat ham, and Dover Company, and the notice had been given in the mode prescribed by act of parliament, namely, by public advertisement. Mr. HAIrritIDOIC then took exception to the meeting, as not being properly constituted, the quorum of 20 share holders required by the act not being present. The objection was 'admitted, and sonic delay was cc carioned until • quorum could be got together. The CHAIRMAN them moved • resolution to the effect that the directors be empowered to cone the 30,0001. in the manner stated, under the powers coat:deed in the third dame of the act referred to. . . Mr. Hearamoe wanted some exphination al to the re lative position at the various cepitab of the company. its did not understand what the East Kent shareholders could have to do with the western exteneica. lie did not see why he, as a known and fair shareholder, should be bound by any financial arrangements made by the western ex. tension shareholders. Mr. HOLROTD, in reply, referred to the act of parliament. He explained that the mousy was to be raised on the security of the western extension. It entailed no liability on the original capital. Mr. HILTON seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously, and the businuu concluded. ACCIDENT AND NARROW EACAIPE ON Locu LOMOND. —On Tueeday morning an accident happened to the Prince of Wales steamer on Loch Lomond, which was well nigh being attended by the most disastrous consequences. The steamer, on her pulsar down the loch, wee surrounded by thick mists, and notwithstanding that she was slowed and • most careful look-out kept by the captain, she struck with great force upon • rock, about half a wile north-east of Inchworm. Immediately afterwards the engine space and afterpsrt began to till with water. Very fortunately the fore compartments kept tight, and the vessel was backed off the rock towards one of the islands. After • short period of extreme suspense, the boat was lowered and the reasoner' were Landed on the Wand. Had the fore com partment given way, in all probability many liege would bare been lost, as the steamer had only one boat, and that capable of holding only half a dozen persons. As it hap pened, the 'nista cleared off, and after a short detention the passengers were takeu onto &Hoch in the following steamer. A resolution, exonerating Captain Brown from any blame, wee primed by the majority of the pamengers, and in • letter to the directors. In this docuuseet the passengers attribute the accident solely to the fag. and to the very reprehensible absence of bums on the rocks. —Glasgow Herald. RILLIGIOUN INTOLIRANCI it COLCHIIIBI%R. —The conduct of the Committee of Privy Council on &location in threatening to withdraw the promised grant of several bun died pounds towards the erection of new national schools in Colchester, in consequence of the attempt to exclude dis senters from the benefite of a secular education therein, has not, it appears, bed its effect upon the high church party, for at a meeting of .ulscnbers held oa Thursday afternoon it was determined not to rewind the former resolution but to enforce the baptismal test. The consequence will be the withdrawal of the government grant for building purpo ses , sad the abandonment of the entire scheme unless the money can be raised by private subscription. Nor is this all, for it was long since intimated that the educational grant would be withheld unless the schools were removal to a more wit ! able spot ; and many of the subscribers. disgusted at this intelemut proceeding. have whivivlrd their intention of withholding their support. The government is about to he farther cap to in order to eacirtaie w h e th er th e y p oi i. ively mhos the grant under such circumstances. THE POLICE COURTS. GUILDHALL Mr. Joseph Hawn, described as a reporter, was charged before Alderman Abbas with being drunk and annoying Mr. Gammon, one of the under-sheriffs of London and Middlesex. Mr. L'i;ar les Gammon said—Yesterday, about one o'clock in the day, I was walking down Basinghsll-str . eet, when the defendant called after me by name, adding ' There he goes—there he goes," which had the effect of 'calling gene ral attention to me. I told him if he annoyed me so again I would give him into custody, for be ha. annoyed me inthe same way for the last four years. He is always tipsy. He was drunk yesterday, and is drunk now. He 11 in the habit of taking hold of me by the arm, but he did not do so yes terday, because I got away from him. I was walking through Guildhall about a couple of hours afterwards, when the defendant again called out my narne loudly, and said, "There he goes' ' in a most insulting manner. I know no. thing more of the mar.. 1 did not even know his name. He was quite drunk— just able to walk, and that was all. He called out so loudly that the Lord Mayor's servants beard him at the entrance to the Court of Common Council. I have been more annoyed by him in Basinghall-street, because that is where he is generally hanging about. The beadle also heard him, and took him into custody at my request. Scott, the beadle, said—l heard the defendant, who was decidedly the worse for liquor say, " Here comes Gammon." I never saw him in the hall before. Mr. Gammon gave him into custody, and he was bailed out at 10 o'clock last night. Alderman Abbiss—W hat have you to say to this charge? Lefendant--I ask for an adjournment ; I stalled him Gam mon, and if his name is unfortunately Gammon, it's all gammon for him to be offended, and this business will all end in gammon. (Laughter.) Alderman Abbiss—Had you any businose with Mr. Gammon Defendant—He is constantly at the Bankrupts y Court, where my sou reports for one of the newspapers, and ho often gives him his card, for he is very fond of having his name printed Gammon, although he dues not like being called 0 ••••• non. (laughter : ` Alderman AUbta•--Do you wthli to ask Mr. Gammon any questions Defendant—Did I not say, " How do you do, Mr. Gammon!" Mr. Gammon—No ; bat you did say that if I would shake hands with you, you would not be offended. Defendant--All I have to say is that Mr. Gammon is a most respectable practitioner in our court, the Court of Bankruptcy, and knowing him, and wishing him no evil, I went to his office this morning, at 10 o'clock, but he was not there. I went there fur the purpose of saying, " Gam mon, let us shake hands and make an end of thin gammon." I beg to express my very great regret, and am willing to shake hands with him now if he likes. (Laughter.) Alderman Abbisa—lt is very deplorable to see a man of education, fax I understand you are a reporter, so far forget himself as to get the worse for liquor. It appears you were so yesterday, and any one can see you are new in the sine condition, which is a great insult to the bench. Defendant—lam not, indeed, sir. Alderman Abbiss-1 should be very sorry to do you such an injustice, but I do not think iny eyes have deceived nie in this instance. However, Mr. Gammon is not desirous of pressing this awe if you will promise faithfully that you will never annoy him again. Defendant—That promise shall be kept, air, but 1 should like to shake him by the hand. (Laughter.) 11611 for the future say, " Mr. Bacon appeared for the assignees," and never aill him Gammon again. (Great laughter, amidst which defendant left the court.) BOW-STREET. William Bark, the driver of oue of the association omni buses running between Charing-cross and Haverstock-hill, was summoned for driving into one of the Perseverance omnibuses, and causing damage to the extent of 11.175. The case was clearly proved, upon the testimony of a police-constable who saw the occurrence ; and Mr. Wontner, solicitor for the complainante, drew the attention of the court to the reckless system pursued by the opposition, or company's 'busses, who persisted in "nursing " every one of the Perseverance 'busses, in a manner which endangered the lives of the pass eng ers. The Perseverance omnibuses bad been started in compliance with the wishes of the inhabit ants of Haverstock-hill, who were deprived of all communi. cation with the West-end ; and the association, by reducing their charge to 2d., and starting three vehicles to every one of the Perseverance, were attempting to drive them off the road. . _ _ Mr. Henry said—l have resolved to adopt the only effectual mode of putting an end to this reckless system of opposition by directing constables to be placed along the road to watch the drivers, and report every case. If heavy fines will not put an end to the practice, I will then try the effect of suspending the license of each offender. The case against the present defendant is proved by the evidence of a very intelligent officer (Appleby, E 47), and 1 tine the defendant 405., and the amount of damage, 11. 17s. The money was instantly paid. SOUTHWARK. Jean Louis CoMet, a poor, miserable.looking French man, was brought before Mr. Iturcham for final examina tion, charged with trespassing on the property of the Lon don, B ri ghton. and South Coast Railway Company, at London-bridge. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Inspector Richards, a clever detective officer in the employ of the company, that on the night of Sunday last lie found the prisoner lying in a corner of the lamp-room, inside the station. awl having roused him up, he perceived that he had been seve ral times found lurlong about the terminus, and in such positions that, from the frequent arrival and departure of trains, his life was placed in danger. On those occa sions he had been taken off their property and sent away. Mr. Richards, on finding him in the lamp-room, considered it to be his duty to take him into custody, as ho had every reason to believe that he was not in his right nand. The prisoner replied, through uu interpreter, that he was in great distress, and he went to the railway to sleep. The magistrate, after hearing the evidence, remanded him until yesterday, in order that the medical officer of the gaol might ascertain the state of the prisoner's mind. When brought up yesterday morning, Mr. Burcham said that he had received a letter from the inedimil officer of the prison. setting forth that the prisoner was of weak intellect. Was any one in court to press the charge of trespass against him ? The constable replied in the negative. biz. Bureham told the prisoner that he must be dis charged, but he should advise him not to go to the railway again. If he was in such distress as he appeared to be, the best way would be for him to proceed at once to the Consul of France, who, no doubt, would do something for him. The poor Frenchman then left the court. WANDS WORTH. A respectable-looking woman, dreamed as a widow, who stated that her name was euffley, and that she lived at Wands worth, applied to Mr. Dayman fur assistance from the poor .s box to enable her to purchase o mechanical leg. She applied hat week and told his worship that she had boon obliged to wear a wooden leg for 11 years, and as it was now worn out she was unable to walk to any extent to search for work to support herself and family. The cost of a new leg was 101., and she bad no means of purchasing one. Unless she could obtain a new leg there was no other course left but to enter the workhouse. Mr. Dayman inquired if the applicant was known. Payne, the summoning otboer, said he knew her, nod was surprised to see her dreseed in that clothing. She was the wife of a respectable man, who tilled the of of inspector of alaughter•housee in Wandsworth for many years. The applicant said her husband had lately died, leaving her completely destitute, with a large family of young children to maintain. Mr. Dayman thought 101. was • very large sum for • wooden leg, and promised to make inquiries for her. The applicant again attended, and Mr. Layman said he bad made some inquiries, and found that it was the number of springs which made the leg so expensive, and that a good one could not be obtained under that sum. In answer to questions, the applicant said a few ladies had subscribed 71., but she bad nut been able to obtain any more. Mr. Dayman said he would advance her the remainder, namely 31., from the poor-box, and then she would be able to pumbas • new leg. The applicant, who said sbe supported herself and family by neoallurrullt, expressed her gratitude to hits worship fur his kindness. TRIAL FOR MURDER AT GLINGOW.—On Thursday, before Lord Anlu i :i ii ll rg az at the Glasgow Circuit Court, Flora Macdonald was c harged with having, on the 10th March, by memos of poison, murdered, within the farm of Shegar ton. Dumbartonshire, Jane M'Murray or M'llurrick, wife of Malcolm lekturrick, farmer. The label accused the prisoner of having, in oatmeal or other porridge, adminis tered a quantity or quantities of arsenic or other poison, in consequence of which the said Jane M'Murrick died on the 11th March. Panel pleaded not guilty, and was defended l z tz Moncreiff and Mr. Duucan Pattison. was servant at SbNarton, and it appeared from the evidence that Mrs. M'Murrick stated before she died that the only motive panel could Lave for poisoning her was because she had accused her of 'tussling a sixpence, a penny, and some candle from the MOD servant. After a long trial the jury returned a verdict of " Not proven."

In longcloths, printers, and skirtings, manufacturers were &trendy so well engaged as to prevent any giving way in prices as yet.

The boat will he a valuable acquisition to this well-known locality for wrecks. The Padstow lifeboat, which also belongs to the National Life boat institution, which is stationed about a dosen utiles to the north, has often been instrumental in saving life. Last winter she rescued in heavy storms seven men from the French brig Gonsalve, of Nantes, and five men from the schooner Frederick William, of Ipswich ; one of the men of the latter crew had been previously saved by the lifeboat of the institution at Weimer, near the Goodwin Sands. The cost (ltO1.) of the Newquay lifeboat warn the munificent gift of a benevolent lady to the National Lifeboat Institu tion. The Duchy of Cornwall and Mr. Robert.., M.P., also contributed 251. each towards the bumium undertaking. It Is one of the most complete lifeboat establislunents on the Cornish coast. The lifeboat is 30 feet long, and pulls six oars single banked ; she will self-right if upset, anal will immediately self-eject any seas she may ship. She was built by Messrs. Forwide, of Limelionse. The boat's trans , porting carriage is well adapted for its purpose, anal was constructed by Mr. Robinson, of Camden-town, on the plan of the lifeboat Institution. The boat sod carriage are kept in a substantial boat-house, built from a design furbished by Mr. C. H. Cooke, honorary architect to the society. With the help of the same benevolent lady, the institution has male arrangements to station a lifeboat at St. Ives, about a dozen miles of Nuwquay, which Is also celebrated for the freuency of the shipwrecks in its vicinity.
