OFFICIAL REPORT ON THE OUTBREAK OF CHOLERA IN THE BLACK SPA FLEET. We give today the cootinnation and embed= of Sir W. Burnett's Report, the first portion of which appeared yesterday is the Doily News. Albion.—About the 1 lth of July, whet at }Kick, diar rhea began to prevail amoaget the crew of the Athlete. From that date to the sod of the month 147 cans were plead ea the sick list; they were, however, not saven—of a bilious character, and readily yielded to treatment. Darns the early part of Avast the member of diarrhoea atraeks latemed, sad gradually arromed a more Genre form. Oa the 9th, a sass patenting all the characteristics of cholera waned, and soot afterwards it wu followed by others differing widely it their degrees of severity. On the 12th or 13th the ship went to sea, with the other vessels of the sect, and for throe da_ys subsequeatly the disease raged with gnat virulence. Daring that period the man ber of attacks antranted to 67, and the deaths to 36 On the 16th the cumber of attacks fell to 6, sad ea the follow er day, whoa dm again mewed at %lila, to 4; se that the inane of the malady had greatly abated two days be fore she returned to the anshorage. The dimes netted its maziesam of sanity es the nights of the 14tb and 16th : out of 26 eases white maned on the latter date, n proved fatal. There is no means of aceountiag for the great fatality ea that day, unless by suppoeing that the emana tions from those previously affected had accumulated, and acquired a much mon deadly influence from imperfeet ven tilation in eossmaence of the state of the weather. The attacks ia =ay bateau* were so sudden, that many men fell as if they had drunk the enceetrated poison of the spas tree. Trafalgar.—ls the aerological return from the Trafalgar the surged remarks, that .4 on the 6th of August we wer • congratulating thenehres on the healthy state of the crew, then being only 23 men oa the sick list, while the land forces on shore at Bali ick were suffering moat severely. From the lit to the Bth of August the thermometer ave nged 75 degrees on board, the barometer 29.87 degrees. The weather wu elms and sultry, and the wind blew from the southward, partly off the land, until the Bth. Oa that evening it shifted sad blew a very het blast from ths shore over the encampment lately occupied by the French. Oa the morning of the 9th two cases occurred • the man first attacked had ben on shore during the pre ceding day, and had eaten freely of plums. Two other cases occurred the' saes evening, and during the night there were about six."l At daylight on the 10th the ship sailed, it company with ' the Vengeance and Loaden and though attacks both of cholera and diarrhoea continued to occur for a few days, still the fore, of the disease appears to basis been checked by the sea air, and the ship returned to the anchorage on the 17th comparatively fres from it. Altogether there centred 164 ease of diarrhea, and 116 of cholera 33 of the latter terminating in death. Ktansination eantianed—l am new a prisoner in the Westminster BndewelL I was seat there on the tad of May last. I was tried at the Westminster Sessions for picking poskets, sad sentenced to two 711111 . 11' imprisonment. I knew the prisoner, Kim. He was a policeman. He Int knew me as a ptekpoeket. About this time Wt year I east him by appointment at the Lake's Head publis hing, is Little Pelteney-street. Two other boys were with me, named Donovan and Arreadoe. He said he would show as a place when we could get some money—. place when there were lots of ladies. It was • few days after Christmas. King went with us through Berkeley square to the Serpentine. in Hyde-park. King pointed out • lady to me in Berkeley-street, and I picked her pocket. I got a purse eentainiog 31. 153., all gold except 53. King told me that he knew I should get a skin from her. I got it by patting my hoed into her dress. I gave the money to King, as well as two other purses which I succeeded in getting from ladies, one just before and one afterwards. The money was equally divided between King, me, and the two other boys, about an hour after, at a public-house where we took refreshments. After this we west to the Ser. pentine, and King took us up to the bridge, when • great many Mies and gentlemen were looking over NM* niceties which was going on there. He said there Sin plenty of people there that I might get something from. He related with hie stick to a lady and gentleman who were leasing ever the bridge, and I and the other boys went up to them. I picked the lady's pocket of • purse, containing half a sovereign and 7s. King was about four yards off at the time, and saw tee do it. He then beckoned to us with ltia stick, and when we were a little way off he took the pane from me, emptied it, and pot it into the hole of a tree. He gave the money to Donovan to mind till we could Cpso7s more. He told us it would not be safe to stop any ea the bridge, but said we might do something under the bridges, where there were a great many people under the arehea. We west down there, sad I picked a lady's pocket of a handful of loose silver. I did not neat it, but passed it over to Delius'. I Gould not do anything more there. King sell it was a measley sort of plau,and it was no use stopping. The money wee divided about 7 o'clock the same evening at a public-house in Chelsea. It was the large public-house opposite the cab stand, about three doors from Sloane-arest. Donovan and the other boy were mach older than me. I was never tried for any of these offences. I first mentioned them about • month ego to Mr. Lawrence, one of the °Minn of the pri son. I mentioned some things about King to on. of the visiting magistrates. I was never promised any reward or forgiveness for what I told, and never expect any. The next day after going up to the Serpentine we met again, by King's desire, at the Luke's Head, and he took us to a beak, at the corner of a street, is Pall-mall. Doncirsa and Arnadon stopped two or three ladies there, bat I could ail get anything from them. Mr. Hall—lt seems that you were always selected M pleb the pockets. Was that because you were considered the most expert hand ? Witness—Yes; I was more up to it, and had the smallest hand. Not being able to do anything at the bank, we went to a large print•shop, where crowds of people are always looking in at the pictures. King was with us there. I got a puree with 21.91.6 d. in it Irma woman. We divided it at a pablie-house at the career of fit. Martin's-lane, near the church, and the purse was throwa away. After that we went to the Inolosure, is the perk, but we got nothing there. I was takes up in April, and committed for trial by the magistrates. Up to that time, OM since January, King had beta constantly with me. He was with me the day before I was taken. He met me, Dawns, Arreados, sad a boy named Breaks, at half-past 8, in Basest-street. He said he had acme business to attend to, and west towards Viso-street. Ws got a gold lever watch ewes, whoa King was with me, from a lady in the New road. hag took ma to the place, sad Attendee showed me the lady. It was a waddles party. Arrendon bad the wateb to sell for as, and he said that he sold it for 41. The money was divided between him, Bing, and me. My sompanions wore not taken into custody with me. They escaped. Mr. Hall—What was the largest manta of money you over obtained is this way is one week ? Witneis—l have got between 901. and 1001. in one week by pocket picking. King shared that money with me and the other boys. It was about six weeks before I was taken. I picked from about one to fire pockets per day generally. Mr. Hall—What did you do with your share of the money ? Witasse—l did not keep it by ate. I used to give it to Mr. Dena, a tallow•sbaadler, who keeps a shop in Short's. prdens. I ham given him munch as 171. at one time. I took the mosey to him becomes the other boys did the same. I always had it back again when I wanted it. Mr. Hall—How did you spend all this mosey, then ? At penny theatres, I 'impost ! Witnees—Ob, no. At Astley's and Drury-lase. I laid some of it oat is clothes, and so forth. Oa the 9th (tb. da - y oa which it broke oat) there were 2 deaths; 10th. 7; 11th, 7; 12th, 3; 13-11 , 4: 1413 , 4; 15th, 4; 16tb, 2. Of those attacked on the 9th, 7 died ; 10th, 12 died; 11th, 7 died; 12th, 2 died; 12th, 5 died; 14th, aoae. Farious.—The crew of the Furious were likewise attacked with the epidemic on the 9th of Avast at Baljiek. Pre viously, however, she had visited Constantinople, where she lay from the 17th to the 20th of Jane. Some of the crew were allowed one and others two days' leave, and, u was to be expected after three or four mouths' cruising in the Bl.ek Sea, they committed the usual kinds of excess peculiar to seamen. "Boats from the shore were at the . same time permitted to lie alongside, in which were sold several kinds of fruit, bread, and the poor hard cheese of the country." Yet though the weather wu intensely hot, it does not appear that their health suffered in the slightest degree. On leaving Constantinople, she ran along the eouts of Asia Minor and Ciresaia, calling at several places by the way ; and having skirted the coast of the Crimea, she reeked and anchored at Baijick on the 4th of August. At 4 a.m. on the 9th of August the &steam of cholera occurred, and in the evening the disease began to spread with harlot violence ; consequently the vessel went to sea with the fleet, and continued cruising for several days successively. The refreshing breezes of the open sea soon arrested the progress of the malady, while those already attacked began to show symptoms of amendment. Altogether there were seventy-three cases of diarrhea and twenty- nine of cholera, nineteen of which proved fatal, within a few days from the date of its eruption. Tribune —the only other vessel In which the epidemic made it. appearance on the 9th was the Tribune. She ar rived at Balk& from Haifa on the 30th of July; her crew appear to have been attacked with diarrhoea about the same time es the crews of the other vessels present; and on the 9th of August there was one death from cholera, and another on the 11th. She went to sea on the 12th, but re turned again on the 17th, being then neatly clear of both foram of the disease. Rodney.—On the following day, the 10th, cholera made ite appearance amongst the crew of the Rodney, though, as in meet of the other vessels, it had been preceded by din- Areal attacks. She went to sea on the 12th, and .gala returned to BaWelt on the 20th, having in the interim lost seven men by the disease, which appears to have abated soon after she left the anchorage. She also lost one man by cholera in September; it was supposed that he contracted the disease on shore, while twisting to remove the wounded tram the tattle-Sad the Alma. Vesuvins.—One day later than in the preceding vessel, the disease declared itself in the Vesuvius. She lad been employed darinethe greater part of the mouth of July blockading the Salina mouth of the Danube; and up to the 6th of August, when she arrived at Baljick, then had been no appearance of cholera or any other sickness amongst her crew. Vengeance.—The epidemic brake out in the Vengeance on the Bth of Auguq; but whether at Varna or Balkck, I am unable to state, se the quarterly return for July, August, and September, has net been received. Eighteen of her men, however, fell victims to the disease between the 9th and 29th of August. Retribution sad Sidon.—The next vessels attacked were the Retribution and Sidon : the former lay at anzbor with the fleet at Balk& from the 30th July to the 12th August; she then went to see, probably in consequence of the ney lease of dianbms amongst her crew. On the following day one of these latter cases degenerated into cholera, and the man died ; what influence theses air had on the health of the new is not stated, but it is to be inferred that it theeked the progress of the disease ; for although the vessel returned to &Welt, and afterwards visited Odessa, Verne, end Con stantinople, no other case occurred until the Bth of Sept., the day after she left Sab& for the Crimea. Terrible.—Though th is vessel appears to have been ex posed during the Stet two weeks in August to precisely th e same epidemic influences as the other vessels anchored at Biljick, her crew suffered but little from the prevailing scourge. Diarrheral complaints wen of frequent occur rence amongst them during the month of July, while pass ing to sad fro between the Salina mouth of the Danube and Sebastopol, and between the latter and Odessa; but they were of • bilious character—the diarrhea in fact already noticed as being peculiar to then regions during the summer months. In August, however, no sooner had she anchored at Baljick than diarrhaal attacks of • truly choleraic nature became prevalent, and one case terminated fatally on the 14th. Sultsequenky, in September, there were two other deaths, bat both persons seem to have con tracted the disease on shore at Varna, where they had been employed for several days assisting to embark the troops, hones, and military stores dallied for the Crimes. In like manes the mew et the Firebrand suffered bat little, is somoquesea at bee baying been kept constantly moving about Ina IGO pest lie smother: a few eases of diarrhea ea see of cholera menned is Avast, but where centemeed is net stated. On the 7th of September there wee a mead mem of cholera which terminated in death. The min belinged to the gig's mew, and, being frequently oa ebes., be bad eaten largely of unwholesome fruit and other isallentilible matters. On the night previous to the attnik, Priegb sulheieg bee diarrhea at the time, he ate vmaelerfiAl of taw mimes and vinegar. The 'crams another instance of immunity from the mere Mel Arm of the disease, in consequence of her being almost emenUmft employed at see, although in the imme diate Vitt/ of Dellick and Varna when it was at its worst. She even remained four days at anchor off B&W& ; but be tween the 4th and the 21st of August she was running tly between these places, passing alternately into the atmosphere which was supposed to be present in each, yet with the exception of about twenty eases of her mew entirely escaped..

The 630 women and children also brought to England by this ship, as we stated yesterday. were seat to the Clarence Bar racks. The Relief Association, of which Major Powys is secretary, expended a considerable sum of money in assisting these poor women and childrea by gratuitously unveying their boxes and other baggage from the ship to he barracks, and in other ways.

The South Gloucestershire _Regiment of Militia is now embodied under Colonel Lo Fitchardinge, and undeigoing daily drill at Gloucester. On Thursday their dreams were delivered out to them, and they will com mence that portion of their drill today. All the men have undemone a strict surgical examination, and many have been reported as unlit for active service. On Tuesday Lord Fitslardinge addressed the men on parade in a short smelt, in wtich he urged on them to volunteer for the line, in iirderto render themselves real good soldiers. He spoke light] of the reports contained in the newspapers as to the privations of the army in the Crimes, and said that those privoions had been greatly exaggerated, and thct the troops were well provided with food and clothing. Some of the men lave since volunteered for the line out of the regiment, but tie volunteers are as yet not as numerous as in some other regiments. Last year Earl Fitzhardinge offered • considerable bonus to men volunteering for the line out of ' " Militia. ii; - 6 - itii - MORE NAVVIES FOR BALABLAVA. Yaterday the Prince of Wales steamer took on boardthe remainder of the navvies who are about to make the now road from Balaklava to the English camp before SebuopoL Anon these men, the number of whom amounts altoge ther t dire hundred, are included besides common navvies, litters, riveten, carpenter*, plate layers, and magi seen ; end as each of them is provided with every requisite of his calling unwary to the speedy fol. lowing up of the work about to be commenced, there can be little or no delay when the men ar rive at their destination.

Barter such circumstances, and with the further provi- sions already made for their comfort, It cannot be doubted that this corps will stud lass chance of being "knocked up" sad becoming comparatively useless by exposers to the wombs. and the difficulties of ensuring labour than oar owe soldiers, who, unfortunately for themselves, have been the mews of teaching us a few useful looms in the art of campaigning. A Baer body of working men than were aseetabled yes. tetchy on the Brunswick-pier, Blackwell, could not be pro. darted by any other nation in the world ; and, from the uabounded enthusiasts displayed by them on their depar ture, it Is evident that these " miserable islanders" intend to show his Majesty the Emperor of Russia what can, aad, we frost, shall be done, in a period of time so incre dibly short as that in which it is proposed to construct the works to the camp.

DANIEL PRATT, PUBLISHER OP THE " BRITISH , BANNER." Mr. Whataiq, mused the übitraties la this ease yesterday ntorning. Mr. &Hands, and Mr. Barnard appeared for the plaintiff; and Serpent Wilkins sad Mr. Evans represented the dihndaat. Serjeant Wilkins proceeded with the aose.exantloatkm of the Rev. Ebenezer Davies as follows :—I remember the appointment of the committee of the ecegregational board. It was agreed that I amongst others should have the sp. poistment of the committee that wee to try me. I objected to Dr. Harris setieg on that committee, and I also objected to the Rev. Dr. Morrison. I may have objected to the Rev. Mr. Stoughton, for he was a director of the society. After the formation of the oommittee I expressed my entire satisfaction at its constitution ; but I did not at that time know that two members of the committee—Mr. Clement Dukes and the Rev. Baldwin Browne—were directors of the society. There were several ex.directors on the committee. I wrote a letter to the members of the committee, stating the terms on which the inquiry was to be conducted. Cleatlemen,—Before any proceedings are taken will you allow me most respectfully to state, as an unprotected and aroused person what I deem to be my rights, in my present painful position, before a court of honour, composed of Christian ministers, and not a civil or criminal court. " 1. That I should be present during the whole time that any and every person is stating against me. 2. That no one who bears witness against me should be present during the time that any other whales is giving evidence. "3. That the evidence or the important parts of it which involve my alleged criminality, be taken down. These myna be granted me in a criminal court. But in • court of bore eomposod of brethren, I claim "di, That I may meet my *orogen before yon In equal allinanatances. I have taken no legal steps nor any civil mum ; if any such steps or process have been taken by my accusers, it is clear lam not in equal circumstances; air can my evidence be of equal weight ; and I cannot premed until lam placed with respect to civil process in die on of my accusers. " rights are so self-evident, that the honour and jostles of every gentleman I address will, I am sure, imams distely secure them to me, and then 1 will lay before you, and so will Mrs. Davies, every document and litter, and any viva voce evidence you may require. If it should ap pear that any deposition has been already made on oath before any civil or criminal tribunal, I respectfully claim is a right a copy of such deposition. (Signed) " Enitxxxxit DAvins." The requirements of that letter were not complied with la every respect. The evidence was not taken down so as MS be available • and two declarations on oath, which had bees recently lade, were withheld from me. I refer to those made by Stacey end Morley. I don't think the first requirement in my letter was complied with either, as communications were held out of doors dur ing the sitting of the committee by members of it. The letter to the committee was Mr. Ainslie's composition, but I approved of and adopted it. That letter wee, I think, written at Mr. Ainslie's house. I did nog express my satisfaction to the committee of the mode in which the 'eclair, was conducted before they gave their decision, as two members of the committee were ab sent the entire day. I did not object to their absence, but said to the committee I would net dictate what ought to be done, but leave it to their honour. I understood that those two gentlemen who were absent would not vote, bat they did so. The whole of the evidence was not read in my 'teatimes—it could not have bean, as it wee not taken down in such a way that it could have been read. I did not ex press my satiefactioa of the proceedings of the committee. With the exception of the absence of those two gentlemen I expressed my satisfaction. I did not say to the committee, " I await your decision with confidence.' . May I add there was a third absentee who voted against me—the Rev. W. Owen, of Gibson-squire. The three who did not vote at all beard the whole of the evidence. The three absentees who bad heard only a portion of the evidence voted against me. Mr. Pollard Davie, Mr. Ds Kewer Williams and Mr. Bpong did not vote at all. The Congregational Board adopted the finding of the committee. I was ex pelled from the fellowship. I don't know that Mr. Spong voted against me, but I heard him say that if be bad seen the four pages of my address in my pamphlet before the committee met, he would have voted against me. The four pages were not written before the findiag of the committee. On the 9th of August, 1852, I took Mrs. Davies to Wellingborough. I was absent two days. When I got there I went to Mr. Beale's house. I have no doubt I dined at Mr. Beale's. There is no incident connected with the breakfast which would cause me to swear I took breakfast at Mr. Beale'. but I firmly believe I took inlay meals there. I always Beale'., tea when I come off a journey. I will not swear that an my arrival at Well borough I was not offered tea—that I refused it and milk in preference. Of course when I visited Well borough in August, 1862, I told Mr. Beale I bad slept in his house in 1846. He seemed to have no more doubt of the ineiti than isa;rli7; Beale. Mr. Beale told me that Mrs. Beale could not recollect my visit in 1845, and added it must have been owing to her having an invalid sister who occupied much of her time staying with her at that time. I recollect that there was a person afflicted with sickness in the house in 1845. Mr. Beale did not see that Mrs. Beale did not remember my being with them in 1845, because abs had a sick sister in the house, foe he added that that would not have prevented their having a mis sionary, because the invalid bad a bed down min, and their spare bedroom would be unoccupied. We both distinctly remembered our conversation about teetotalism is 1845. Mrs. Davies and I slept at Mr. Beale's is 1852. On coming down in the morning I told Mr. Beale I recollected the bedroom was that in which I had slept in 180. I will not swear I did not tell Mr. Beale I remembered the fund tore in the room and the look cut from the window. Mr. Stale did not say, " Well, it you positively assert that, I cannot dispute your word " — most certainly not. When I left London in 1852 for Wellingborough it was not my in tention to sleep there. I made my arrangements so that I could do so if necessary. I don't recollect whether or not I took a carpet.ban or portmanteau. Mrs. Davies had a small carpet-bag ; she would attend to those kind of things. My impression is I had no change of clothes or light dress. In the course of the evening I said to Mr. Beale that I was accused of writing an infamous letter, in the year 1845, by the deputation. Ths Arbitrator—Why did you not mention that on seeing Mr. Beale at first, as you must hare said something to account for your presence there ? Witness—We arrived about one, and Mr. Beale did not return home till seven or eight o'clock in the evening. There was a relative of Mrs. Beales' taking cars of the house, and after the return of Mr. and Mrs. Beale, bad tea; and Mr. Beale, subsequently, joined us in the drawing room—shook me by the hand and said, "I moonset you perfectly., but I don't recollect your name." Examination continued—On my coming down stairs on the following morning, Mn. Davies said, "He perfectly re. collects the room as the one he slept in in 1816." I distinctly remember her saying so. I may have said so too. Bhe also said, " but his did not remember the dressing room." In the course of the morning the conversation turned on the Wellingborough letter. Ido not recollect asking Mr. Beale if he could aid me in refuting the Wellingborough letter, but I may have done so. He said there was no delivery of letters at Wellingborough on the Monday mornings. He left out the word • London." I said, " I suppose you have a delivery from other places besides London in 1846," and he replied, " No! not frets other places." Mr. Beale drew oat the ortifloate, which afterwards appeared in the " Defence of the Innocent." Be showed it to me. I ap proved of it. I asked him to pat down anything he recol lected about my visit in 1845. I did not interline the docu ment with pencil to the best of my belief; but I will not swear I did not. The Arbitrator—How long did the drawing up of the certificate last? Witness—Well, it must have lasted half an hoot or an hour, Mr. Beale having been called out repeatedly during the doing of it. Serjeant Wilkins—l ask you now, did you not interline it with pencil, and ask Mr. Bole if he could not put it into that fovea ? Witness—l believe I did not. Serjeant Wilkins—Will you swear you did not ? Witness—l will not. I believe I did aot, and I will swear I supplied nothing but the date. Serjeant Wilkins—Now, be cautious. Will you swear on your solemn oath having been cautioned that you supplied nothing but the data ? Witness—l swear on my solemn oath I supplied nothing but the date Serjeant Wilkins—Read that document, and I implore to you to consider your answer (witness reads it). Now, air , having rod it, do you mean sweat yen supplied not hing but the date ? Witness—l do. Serjeant Wilkins—Did not Mr. "Beale say, " Well, on your recollection, and I believe truthfulness, and your per fect recollection of the sleeping room ' I thi n k I may." Witness—l do not believe that he did. Serjeant Wilkins—Will you swear he did not ? Witness—l will not. Bailment Wilkins—Now I will read you this document: " The Rev. B. Davies (late of Derbies) was down at Wel lingtons& is November, 1845, on behalf of the London Ilielenery Iledety. lie was my guest oa that occasion, =yet eag beim been Saturday night, November 1, to. Minting, November 4, when he left early for Lan des toottned the Colonial Infant School, according to op :=1::t. His intended visit to that institution, and his R eitablish one at Derbies, I well remember, from the dronautente of the same thing engaging my own ihimegllte,we having then recently established one atWelling. b: It 13 not possible that Mr. Davies could have re eel . 2 1 it packet of letters on the 3rd of Noveiaber, 1846; and d onto he could not have written an answer to any letter as so received, there being no delivery here on • Monday at that time. Moreover, it is not at all probable. that Mr. Davies could have written any letters at my 11„ ubs without my knowledge and recollection, as I ea seal y e . Weber his m ovements during thaiTilits -- -( 8 0.11) Thomas boa Ouvnit Baran, Spring Hill Cottage." Now, did Mr Beale supply all that hat the date? Witsissa--He aid. &dent Wilkiaa—Did you sot suggest this pimp : 0 Staying at my home from Saturday night, Nov. Mt, $s Tuesday morning, Nov. 4th ? " Witness—Of coarse I suggested the dates. Berjeaat Wilkins repeated the question. Witne distinctly t. I desired Mr. Beale to give me only what he remembered, all but the precise day at the month, and that I supplied him with. Berjeant Wilkins—lf that be so, how could be have said. "Oa your recollection sad I believe truthfulane, sad you perfect recollection of the sleeping room, I think I may." Witaess—l believe be did not say so. &quint Wilkins—Will you swear be did not? Witness—l will not. fierjesat Wilkins—Why ? Witness—l will not put my oath in opposition to Ida Beale's. Serieent Wilkias—You have on many other pinks, why aot . oa this ?_ Witne;;Ll would rather not do so. Berjeant Willing—That is your answer. Did you go to Wellingborough with Mr. Anal, and Mr. Browne, the solicitor, in February, 1854, and call at Mr. Keep's ? Witneu—They did. Serjeant Willuns—You did not go to Mr. Keep's with them ? ^ Wit ness—l did not. I stayed at the Hind Inn. Serjeant Wilkins—Did not they tell you that Mrs. Keep had said, " Why does not Mr. Davies come here and face us like a man ?" Witneas—They did. Serjeant Wilkins—Why did you not do so ? Witnees—l wished to do so, but Mr. Ainslie and my so licitor, Mr. Brown, prevented me. Serjeant Wilkins—Did you not on that occasion go and. seek Mrs. Beale's servant? Witness—l did. Serjeant Wilkins—Did you see her ? Witness—l did. Serjeant Wilkins—What is her name ? Witness—Mrs. Cobb. Serjeant Wilkins—Did she not tell you she did not recol lect your sleeping at Mrs. Beale's ? Witness—She instantly recollected me. Serjeant Wilkins—ls that an answer ? Oa your oath, sir, did she not tell you she had no recollection of your having slept there ? Witness—She did, but she said she recollected my having been her master's guest. Serjeant Wilkins—Oh, of course—the bread and milk would make her recollect that. When you went down to Mr. Beale's in 1852, did you inquire about the servant, and did be tell you she was married ? Witness—l did inquire about her ;he did not tell me she was married. Serjeant Wilkins—When you went to Wellingborough in 1815, who met you ? Witness—l believe Mr. Reynolds did. Serjeant you swear he did? Witness—l will not. Serjeant Wilkins—Did you go in the omnibus to the place where yon stayed ? Witness—l believe I walked from the Rind Inn. Serjeant Wilkins—Who took your luggage to the plate where you stayed ? Witness—l do not recollect. Serjeant Wilkins—When you went into the house at Wellingborough on that night, whom did you see ? Witness-1 believe 1 saw Mr. Beale. Serjeaat Wilkios—Were you not introduced to two ladies on that occasion ? Witness—l have no recollection that I was. Serjeant Wilkins—Will you swear you were not? Witnese—l will not. Drayton Serpent Wilkuts—Were you introduced to • lady named Witness—l have no recollection whatever of a lady of that name ? Serjeant Wilkins—Did you see that lady here, before the learned arbitrator, upon the last occasion, in which Mr. Ainslie was the defendant ? Witness. 7 l did. _ Berjeant Wilkins—Did yon ses Mn. Keep here ? Witness—l did. Berjeent Wilkins—And Such Wooding ? Witness—l did. Seri'sLei Wilkins—And the man servant Smith ? Wititeu-1 did. Serjeant Wi lkins—Do you mean to say you have nil re collection of having seen any of those persons at Welling borough ? Witness—l will swear I have no recollection of having seen any one of those persons until I saw them in a group together in a room at Guildhall in February, 1854, point ing with other's attention to me. Serjeant Wilkins—Did Mr. and Mrs. Beale tell you they thought you had slept at Mr.llteynolus's, the minister ? Witness - 1 think not. I will not swear they did not, but if twenty people had told me so I should not have doubted my own belief, so positive wee I on the subject: Au opinion only was expressed by Mrs. Beale. No doubt whatever vase:pressed by Mr. Beale. Serjeant Wilkins—Now, air, did not the man Smith whom you saw here at the last examination, take your portmanteau and carry it into Mr. Keep's house ? Witness—To the best of my recollection I never saw that man uotil I saw him in the witness-box here, for I did not see him with the others at Guildhall. Serjeant Wilkins—Will yon swear he did not ? Witness—l believe he did not. Serjeant Wilkins—Will you swear that Smith did not every morning during your stay at Wellingborough clean your boots ? Witness—l will not. I did not see the party who cleaned I my boots. Serjeant Wilkins—Oh, that is your answer, is it ? Mr. Ballantine—Of course it is. Serjeant Wilkins—Will you swear the man did not take you to the door of West•end Chapel Witness—l have no recollection of the man.

Serjeant Wilkins—Will you swear you did not ? \Vitalism—l will not. Sapient Wilkins—Did you on that Sunday morning take your text, 24th Proverbs, 11th and 12th verses ? Witness—l think it was very unlikely that I preached from that text in the morning, but I may have done coin the evening. I speak from my usual custom, that I should not be likely to preach about the slave trade in the morning. Serjeant Wilkins—Why not? Would the subject spoil one's appetite for dinner, or what ? (Laughter.) Witneu—l speak from my general habit, that I should not be likely to select so terrible a subject in the morning u the slave trade. Serjeant Wilkins—Did you not tell the servant at the house, when you slept there, that you were so accustomed to a warm climate that you felt chillier than other people ? Witness—l bars no recollection that I did. Serjeant Wilkins—Did you not tell the servant that every night before you went to bed at Bethke, you had to shake the clothes, lest any venomous reptile should be con cealed in the bed ?
