VIE PRINCE OF WALES AT NAPLES. A letter from Naples, dated Nov : 9, says :—lt is one great advantage of an incognito that a Royal Prince is not deprived by rank of those pleasures which every private gentleman enjoys, and under cover of this mantle our Princes have been walking awl driving about during their short visit. The pflople here have beon astonished at their early and unceremonious habits, for as soon as half-past eight or nine o'clock in the morning they have been re cognised visiting the various coral shops and studios and other places of interest, just as you or I might have done. Palchetti and Bolton had the honour of an inspection, as also the celebrated pho tographist Grillet. A German artist, too, M. Gutz loff, received the honour of a visit and of commis pious. On Saturday the Royal party started in eight car riages for Pompeii, where they arrived at midday, and entered the silent city by the street of the Tombs. After exploring the house of Diomede and the whole of this interesting locality they proceeded to the house of the Tragic Poet, the public baths, the street so called of the Two Fountains, and then entered the Forum. The Strada Olconio was next visited for the sake of the house No. 4, which is re markably well preserved, and the house of Cornelio Rufo, in which is a very beautiful linpulnum, and a bust of the proprietor. On the left of this street is the singularly interesting house where at the threshold you are met by the inscription in mosaic, " Salve lucrunz !" By this time it was two o'clock, and an excavation was made at the back of the Lu pinari, and Bernoud, a French artist, photographed the party as they sat around looking down on the novel and exciting scene. The results, however, were not great, as nothing was found except some bronze hinges and nails, tolerably well preserved, and which the Prince appropriated, with much glee. The Princess, too, appeared greatly inte rested with the operations. Thence the party pro.. ceeded to the " Bagni Nuovi , " where luncheon was provided, and Bernoud again photographed them, two or three of the ladies in waiting being sum moned to take their part in the group. After repos ing a short time the Princes were conducted to the western part of the Strada Stabiana, and a very successful excavation was made. An olla of bronze, another of clay, and three little lucerna of the same material were turned up, as also the skeletons of three fewle and the remains of some egg shells, which the Princess took possession of. In the corner of the room, too, was found a cameo with an engrav ing. The next visit was to the amphitheatre, which lies at a short distance from the city, and after ex amining the lower part the distinguished visitors mounted the seats which run round the ruin, the Prince of Wales being especially active, and jumping from block to block with all the gaiety of youth. Before leaving Bernoud took another photograph of the party as they sat or stood about, with the western sun shining full upon them, and, as the points chosen were admirable, I doubt not but that these three photographs will prove to be worthyre miniscences of our Prince's visit to Pompeii. The carriages were waiting at the Porta Stabiana, and now that they are safely shut in let us leave them to talk over their impressions of this very agreeable day. It was pleasant to see these Royal personages, untrammelled by the ceremonies of a Court, enjoy ing themselves so thoroughly, and appearing in their natural character. The incognito did much for them, and it is just to say that the Neapolitans have had the good taste and the delicacy to respect it. Such attentions, too, as have been rendered by the autho rities were only those sufficient to prevent them from being obtruded upon. The Princes were at tended by the very meritorious director of the exca vations, Cavaliere Fiorelli, and the Prussian Consul, Mons. Stolte. An inspector of police was there, and eight carabineers from Torre dell' Annunziata moved about in pairs just to keep order, and that was all the display of authority. On Sunday the Prince of Wales attained his majority, and at 8 o'clock in the morning all the British vessels of war dressed, except the Osborne, each mast of which, however, was surmounted by a crown of evergreens. No salutes were fired, the incognito of the Prince being preserved, and an obvious respect being paid to the wishes and feel ings of her Majesty. At 12 o'clock the Princes and the Princess of Prussia honoured the London and the Doris with a visit, and the usual pretty epee tacle was presented of manning yards. After the return of the Prince to the Osborne salutes were fired as a matter of course. On Sunday afternoons our great promenade, the Villa Reale, is always crowded with a mixed company of persons whose occupations prevent them from enjoying themselves during the week, and it used to be the rule of the aristocratic " ignobile vulgus" to abstain from breath ing the same air with them. Our Royal family must have other ideas of infection, for in the after noon they mingled in the crowd, and walked up to the jetty, returning afterwards to the spot where the band plays, and occupying some of the many hundred chairs which are placed there at two or three grani a head- An English lady who sat near, on seeing the Princes, gave the master of the band a hint, and the Royal Anthem, was struck up, but unaccustomed and unprepared, the performers only got half-way through it. Meantime the crowd ' in a half-circle around to gaze at Royal Actually could condescend to walk and and even pay for their seats. In 're was a dinner on board the Osborne an by the Prince of Prussia, covers bee. . 4 . Besides the Prince and Princess of 3 the Royal suite, Captain Chads, of t tain Sir L. M'Clintock , of the ‘ Dori Tarmora, Mr. Bonham and M. Stolti, ad Prussian Consuls, had the honour 01 tk .d. At the closo of the dinner the health of 'sty was given, and was re ceived with m husiasm, and then General Knollys, all th rising, proposed the health of the Prince of . Briefly, but in a very feel ing manner, he in. ted that but for the g.. eat loss which the Royal L. • and nation had sustained the Prince would nc "e been here that evening, and then alluding tot •fiat future whichlay before him, he pointed to EMU sized the bright example of the deeply to be rq 1 Prince Albert.

Thus ends nay jour na l of our Prince's doing in the Bay of Naples. Every_ and nothing ould have thing has passed off well, of t he weather, c which has exceeded the calm beauty shed brilliant days indescribable loveliness on the natural attrac tions of this neighbour hood 'al moonlight nights, and . Warn], have been followed by g en i al from my open windows looking o ut on the Bay I have listened to the Prince's band every evening u p to 10 o'clock, followed by the occasional cheers of our seamen, which told us the history and the occa" aim of the music, lam much mistaken if the visit to the Bay of Naples will not form one of the pret tiest pictures impressed on the memory of our Prince. If you are not tired of brigand stories I will give y3u another, the scene of which wai also near Eboli. There were labourers engaged in some kind of occupation not far from a large fountain in that neighbourhood, who filled up the intervals between work. and their devotions to the Madonna with a little brigandage on their own account. When a carriage appeared the zappa or the trowel was aban doned, and then muskets were taken up from under the sod. The travellers were rifled, a horse or a man shot, as the case might require, and then these industrious fellows resumed their ordinary labours. This had gone on for some time, and no one could trace out the guilty parties. As for the padrone, he could answer for his men as being always occu pied. One of the band, however, who divided the affections of a woman with another man who was not of the band, murdered his rival one fine evening, and the woman was arrested. Under menace of being shot if she did not reveal the names of the murderer and his accomplices, she betrayed six of the latter. A week after she was again arrested, and then sentenced to be shot if she did not also be tray the capo. Agreed. In the dark of the even ing she goes to her trysting place, followed by Carabineers, mounts a tree, and gives a whistle. Immediately the ground rises not far off, and the capo emerges from his subterranean hiding-place, which had been ingeniously covered over with boughs of trees, leaves, and sods. The woman de scends, and it is unnecessary to say that the ardour of their emb races was coo l e d b y t h e rus h o f t h e Carabineers, who arrested both. These are true stories, and a hundred others might be repeated which would beat Mrs. Radcliffe out of the field ; but the moral of them is this, that, thanks to the Bourbons, society is completely disorganised in Southern Italy. There is no public or private morality ; the labourer in the country districts is half workman, half brigand, and if there be any difference between him and the employe or the galantuomo of the towns, it is that while the former uses violence the latter resort to the refined arts of lying and cunning. It is a wise resolution of the Government to send more cavalry into the pro vinces, and the fine regiment called " Saluzzo," which was reviewed by La Marmora last week, is to leave for Puglia. 711 E ITALIAN CAPITAL A letter from Turin, dated Nov. 13, says :—lf any reason, or string of reasons, were wanting to excuse Italian anxiety on the subject of that most abominable Roman question, sufficient, I believe, might be drawn from the condition of the present Italian capital. The town of Turin has been most uncomfortably outgrown by its population. It is not merely that apartments, furnished or unfur nished, are let out at a rent eight and ten times higher than it was only four or five years ago—the real grievance is that no accommodation whatever is to be had for love or money. Those who have a suite of a few wretched holes, or " members," as they call them, to let, not only put forth exor bitant demands as to price, but insist on long leases of nine, or twice and thrice nine, and, at all events, no less than three years. Turin is revelling in its unexpected, unbounded, but, as many anticipate, transient and fleeting prosperity. Its citizens are " eating, drinking, and merry-making, for to-mor row they die." Carnival is the season for selling masks, and hay must be made while the sun shines. To-day all Italy is thronging upon Turin ; next week, or next month, or next year, Government will shut up shop and move off to another city. The subjects of Victor Emmanuel will come by their own, Parliament will meet on the Capitol, the Court be lodged in the Quirinal, and grass grow in the streets of Turin, as it does in those of Ferrara. Mr. Marsh. the American Minister, an accom plished and amiable gentleman, after running the round of the few vacant lodgings in the city, is off to Pegli, or some other place in the neighbourhood of Genoa, in the utter impossibility of conveni ently housing his family near the Government to which' he is accredited. Sir James Hudson, the highly respected and universally beloved English Minister, has been compelled to give up his splendid residence at the Palazzo Sangiorgio, in Ambassa dors'-street, because his landlord wanted to pin him down to a nine years' lease, and the sanguine friend of Italy thinks he may have to pack up and be off to some mansion in the Corso long before one ninth of that period is out. A third diplomatic gentleman is too happy to rusticate at a villa near Alpignano, at an hour's railway distance from his office, because the inhospitable town has not a roof to offer him to shelter his head. And now winter is closing in, Parliament is to be re-opened, and more than 400 deputies, with above 200 senators, are wandering about the streets, carpet-bag in hand, some of them with wife and children at their heels, and lucky are they who can get a third floor at 1,0001 (X4O) a month and who are able to affordit! Up to the year 1859 Turin, though a place rising at a tremendous rate, strove hard, and successfully, to meet the demand for accommodation with ade quate supply. A town which at the close of the last century harboured 100,000 souls within the two English miles' compass of its walls and bastions, very naturally took a sudden and considerable spread the moment the French republicans of 1796 pulled down its fortifications and gave breathing I l room to the pent-up inhabitants. Since that time street has been added to street and island (as a Iblock of buildings is here called) to island. The old symmetrical design of the cheesebaard was not in terfered with, but every straight line was stretched out for several furlongs in every direction—room was left for a square at every second or third turn ing at right angles, and when the municipal cor poration bethought themselves of girding the town with a new cinta daziaria, or octroi wall, they took i n a good mile all round beyond the present habi tations, providing space to be filled up in several hundreds of years. Up to 1859, I said, the num b.er of hearths kept up with that of the increasing fam ili es . The town was beautified as it widened, and the new quarters, spacious, neat, and cheer ful, by degrees thinned the multitude unwhole somely thronged together in the lanes an d al l eys of the old centre. But 1860 came and 1861 fol lowed, and of the town, which had been a small but suitable scat of government for about five mil lions of Piedmontese, became the 'Metropolis, first of as many Lombards, then of 'milians and Tus cans, finally of Neapolitans and Sicilians. The old House of Deputies had to make room for a now wooden structure three times its size; the former Ministerial offices stretched out right and left, or rose heavenwards to receive thrice the number of their ancient functionaries, or had to migrate, one to this, another to that out-of-the-way tenement about town, too lucky when they had not o ot tor when reara new edifice altogether from th e ground, ' , hey were not compelled to split tova \ r v io h u er s e d v e e - r nents, to be located here and there, practicable, at any W iles and miles away Lech other. Room for the Gov ernment, , the town supplied. But what about th e govern ing classes ? As annexation followed up on fusion, and union ripener} into unity, as new subjects were attracted to the Sovereign city by business, by am bition, by curiosity, it was found that the building activity of the Turinese slackened, that the demand for room and more room was met by the bricklayer with arms akimbo, and by the householder with outrageous demands and unconscionable conditions. The word went forth that Piedmont, and with it Turin, had ceased to be; them was but one Italy, and the old robber-nest of Romulus was to be its capital. Yet one month, one season may be, and the last of the &naves will turn his back upon the E ternal City, Vi ctor Emmanuel will build h i s h ome on th e Palatine, the Carignano Palace will be moved to the Piazza di Venezia, grass will grow on shut, and . Turin wil t th a e ll rs, spectre cities, like the Vi a di u the shops in Dora Grosse will be Reav b e e nn a a d:led to the number 'of rumbling Pa a v av ia 4 anddesnsl desolation i m on a n p y a hop e of recove rs, e among Ferrara, Pisa, Hence was there in silence and building craft in Turin. The fine pa l ace s (Via della Cernaia), leading to the Piazza d'Ami, was left unfinished==iiiter blank on the left side, a heap of rubbish and scaffolding Streets the THE SUN, 1 4 0 NOUN, MONDAY EVHNLN I 4, NOVEMBER 17, 1862. spell-boundfor several seasons on the right. The Novara Railway station, which had been reared fully a mile away from the centre, in the expec tation that a mageifieent axenue to it would: rise in continuation of the Via Santa Teresa, and on the site of the dismantled citadel, still stands in the midst of a wilderness, save where a huge set of barracks, an opthalmic establishment, or La Marmora's house (the gift of a grateful country to the Crimean hero, now sold to a railway com pany) dots the ground here and there. For the rest, no one builds in Turin; no man has speculation enough in him to add to the insufficient number of the ancient hotels. Yet three or four days and he will be a lucky man who can secure as much as an attic or a cellar at Trombetta's, Feder's, or any of the time-honoured caravanseries which used to greet the traveller on his descent from Mont Cenis. Turin has no home for guests, permanent or temporary, and it can provide none—for who would venture to invest his money in the once profitable trade of taking in strangers, with the threat before him of a removal of the capital, and the'certainty for his own part of burning bis fingers by the enterprise Seriously speaking, Turin has become too incon venient, too extravagant, too improvident a place for people to live in. I could quote a good number of provincial Government officers to whom promo tion is offered on condition of their removal to the capital, and who beg and solicit and intrigue to be left where they are, as they find themselves better off with a salary of 3,000 f. at Parma, Brescia, Cremona, or Bologna than they could ever hope to be with twice the same stipend in Turin. Those who are compelled in spite of themselves to transfer their quarters to this inhospitable place settle down by themselves wherever they can rest their heads, leaving their families behind, to be joined by them when they and the Government to which they be long are allowed to exchange the banks of the Po for those of the Tiber. In the same manner, out of 100 members of either House of Parliament not five can allow themselves the luxury of their wives' and children's company during the session. For eight or ten months in the year domestic life is thus broken up in Italy in some of the highest social ranks, owing to the imperfect capabilities of this temporary capital. The next best thing to a favourable solution of the Roman question would be for the Italians the certainty that the gates of the Eternal City are closed against them to all eternity. Let Florence, or Bologna, or Naples, or any other place, be raised to the rank of a new metropolis, or let it be loudly proclaimed that the seat of Government is to abide in Turin for an indefinite, but reasonably prolonged, lapse of years, and the confidence of builders, householders, and landlords will revive here, and Turin, which has undoubtedly every element necessary to spread into a great city, will again become inhabitable. A very painful sensation has been causedthrough out the country by the tidings of the massacre of a detachment of 40 infantry of the royal army by a band of 200 brigands near St. Severo, in the pro vince of Capitanata. The unlucky soldiers had been led into an ambush by a spy, who informed them that ten brigands were lurking in a wood called 11 Bosco della Grotta, between Saeta Croce di Magli ano and Maglianico. Surrounded by a force five times their own number, in the thick of the forest the brave men endeavoured to cut their way through the midst of them, but 21 of them were shot or cut down on the spot, 13 were taken prisoners, and burnt alive at no great distance in a straw loft. Among the latter was the officer in command of the detachment, Capt. Rota, a Garibaldian, who was one of the famous Thousand of 'Alai-Bala, It seems no less than 800 brigands, all mounted, are at this present moment infesting the open plains of Puglia, and especially the province of Capitanata. It never happens, however, that these ruffians obtain any success over the royal troops, or even await an en counter with them. The troops, nevertheless, are worn out and disgusted, if not dispirited, and the population so utterly demoralised by the incredible sufferings to which the continuance of the scourge of brigandage exposes them, that no less than one fourth of the lands of the province aro out of culti vetion. THE REPRESENTATION OF BOITTILAMPTON. SOUTHAMPTON, Nov. 15. The politics of this town are so peculiar, so com I pounded of self-interest and public principle, and the present election is likely to be such a severe struggle for Tory ascendancy in the town, that a few remarks to give the key to the short and almost unintelligible reports which will appear daily for the next three weeks of the progress of this election, will not perhaps be unacceptable. The Liberal party here has a very strong majority. In fact, when it was almost equally divided between the late Richard Andrews, the coachmaker, and Mr. Weguelin, at an election a few years ago, the Tory candidate, Sir Edward Butler, could not get into Parliament. The Peninsular and Oriental and the Royal Mail Companies spend enormous sums of money in the town, and have necessarily great in fluence. Both companies have been rivals for in fluencing, if not monopolising, the representation ; hitherto, however, the Peninsular and Oriental Company has been most successful, Mr. Willcox and Mr. Weguelin, both directors of that com pany, having at one time represented Southampton: The split in the Liberal party, solely about party leadership, caused Mr. W. D. Seymour to be elected in the room of Mr. Weguelin. Oa the death of Mr. Wilcox, Capt. Mangles, the chairman of the Royal Mail Steam and South Western Rail way Companies, and a director of the Southampton Dock Company, became, a candidate. As there was no director of the Peninsular and Oriental Company disposed to come forward, the local managers of that company, partly in a spirit of rivalry to the Royal Mail Company, and partly from political mo tives, joined the Conservatives, and brought forward the Tory Lord Mayor of London. Now, the united forces of the Peninsular and Oriental Company and the Conservatives form a numerous body of voters. The Weguelinite section joined Capt. Mangles, but the Seymourite section kept aloof, and Messrs. G. Thompson and Croskey came into the field, and thus still further divided the Liberal party. This four fold division of the Liberals, and the coalition of the Peninsular and Oriental Company's employes with the Tories, made the Lord Mayor's chance an excel lent one. There was also a prejudice agst Captain Mangles, as, representing the South-Western Com pany, he successfully opposed the Great Western Company in their attempt to approach Southamp ton by means of the Andover and Redbridge Rail way, upon which the townspeople had set their hearts. Oil Tuesday last the friends of Mr Thompson held a public meeting, and the Royal Mail, the Dock, and the South-Western Railway people broke it up. The next night the friends of Captain Mangles held a meeting, and the Tories and the Peninsular and Oriental Company's people broke that up. Last night the friends of the Lord Mayor were to hold a public meeting, but the Dock, the Royal Mail, and the Railway people prevented it from taking place by violence, and the meeting had to be held at the Dolphin Hotel. Within the last two days Mr. Croskey has withdrawn from the contest, and Mr. Seymour has induced the leaders of his party to support Capt. Mangles. Thus the chances of the latter have improved, and those of the Lord Mayor have become proportionately less. The election will probably take place about the 4th proximo. The riots to which this election has given rise are most disgraceful. On Wednesday and Friday nights men were seen armed with dangerous weapons, and several persons were seriously in jured. About £lOO worth of damage was done to the Assembly-rooms last night, where the Lord Mayor's meeting was to have been held, and the damage must be made good by the town. Fears are entertained that there will be a loss of life before the ejection is over. The Peninsular and Oriental, Royal Mail, South Western Railway, and Dock Companies employ large numbers of labouring men, few of whom have got a vote, and the companies have been directly charged by the Southampton papers with allowing these men a holiday, to enable them to disturb the public meet inga of the rival candidates with the most senseless violence. Already the enemies of reform are point king to this violence, and using it is an argument against the extension of the suffrage. LOSS OF THE HAMBURG STEAMER. OFFICIAL REPORT. Iteport by Joseph R. Sterrett DuffilAT, Of Cor sindal, and James Corbet, Esq., two of her Majesty's Justices of the Peace for the county of Aberdeen, with tho concurrence of Colin Camp bell Keno, Esq., Commander R.N., and Capt. Dun can Forbes, of the Local Marine Board, Aberdeen, as nautical assessor. To tho Honourable the Board of Privy Council for Trade. In the matter of the Investigation into the Loss Honourable o f the steamship the Hamburg, of Aberdeen. The Committee of Privy Council for Trade having ordered that an investigation should take place into the circumstances connected with the loss of the steamship Hamburg, of Aber deen, the subscribing justices, of these dates (Oct. 31 and Nov. 1) met, with the Nautical Assessors appointed by the Board of Trade, for the purpose of said investigation ; and they have now to report as follows : The paddlewheel steamship Hamburg, of 436 74-100 registered tonnage, with engines of 250 horse power, started on her last voyage from Kirkwall, bound for Aberdeen, upon Saturday, the 11th Oct. last, at a quarter past 5 p.m. She had three passen gers on board and a crew of 30 men, including the master, two mates, and two engineers, also a cargo of live stock, consisting of 105 cattle, 200 sheep, and nine horses. The weather was then moderate, but cloudy, and the wind S. by E. The vessel arrived in due time opposite Copinsha Islands, from which point her course was shaped across the Moray Firth to Kinnaird's Head. At 7 o'clock p.m. Copinsha Island bore W. by compass, distant about a mile and a half, and from this they took their departure, steering S. W. At the same hour Hugh Geddes, the master, went below, after leaving instructions with the mate, who now took charge of the watch, "to keep the same course," viz., S. W., "to call him (the master) if it became thick, and to take the bearings of the Pentland Skerries as long as he could see them." At 9.30 p.m. these bearings were ac cordingly taken at the after-compass, and are entered in the log-book as North-West by North, the Sker ries being about 15 miles distant, and the wind increasing. During the whole of the first mate's watch that vessel had been going under full steam, and from 7 p.m. till 1 o'clock a.m. was found to have made a run by the patent log of 571 knots. At 1 o'clock the chief mate called the master, and reported to him the distance run, the state of the weather, and how the Pentland Skerries bore at 9.30 p.m. The master then gave instructions that he should be called by the second mate at 2 o'clock. Robert Weallem, the second mate, was therefore in charge of the vessel from 1.20 a.m. (when the chief mate went below) to 2 o'clock a.m., at which hour (or 10 minutes before 2, according to the cap tain's own statement) the captain himself came on deck. The course during the second mate's watch continued the same as before, viz., S.l W., th e wind being moderate, the water smooth, and the weather a little hazy." Kinnaird's Head Light was first seen by the captain at about 6 minutes be fore 2 o'clock a.m., and at that time bore S.W. by S. by compass, and, as he believed, about 14 miles distant. It was seen at the same time or shortly afterwards, by the second mate, and by others on the watch. The vessel was continued in the same course, viz., S. -1 W., until 2.20 a.m., at which hour it was altered by the master to S. The weather was quite clear at this time, and the wind from S. and E., moderate. At 2.46 the vessel was abreast of Kinnaird's Head Light, which bore about W.S.W. by compass, and at 3.40 a.m., according to the cap tain's statement, the course was again altered to S., and by We This was done in the belief that the Fivesh ship was minutes h t about thereafter miles t er the distant from th e l an d. bearing of Kinnaird's Head Light were again taken, and were found to be N.W. and by W., and the ship's course was again altered to S.S.W. At this time says the captain in his protest, the weather was hazy, " al though he could see a distance of two miles; but he did not think it necessary to take soundings, from knowing his position." The master's description of the various alterations in the course is borne out by the evidence of the seamen at the wheel, except in so far as relates to the hours above mentioned, in re gard to which there is a slight discrepancy. Henry Bridges, who had charge of the wheel from about 1.45 a.m. to 3.30 a.m., saw Kinnaird's Light at about 2.45 a.m. He received the order for the first alteration in the course, viz., to S., at the same time. This continued for about a quarter of an hour or 20 minutes, when Bridges received the order for the second change, viz., to S., and by W. He says that it was again changed some time after to S.S.W., and that at half-past 3 he was relieved by James Stephen. This is corroborated by Stephen, who states that the course which he received from Bridges, viz., S.S.W., was continued until the vessel struck. In less than half an hour after the course was given, the master states that he saw something bright, and believing it to be a ship's light he ordered the helm to be put to port. Immediately after this he saw breakers a head, and ordered the helm to be put to starboard. This was immediately followed by the order to stop the vessel, and back full speed. This would be about 4.15 by the master's account, but was somewhat earlier in the opinion of the first mate and other witnesses. Some time before this the weather had been getting thicker, and at half past 3 o'clock the carpenter went, by the second mate's order, to the forecastle head to keep a look out. Whilst he was there, and two minutes before the vessel struck, the carpenter says that he saw the remains of a wreck, and the wash of the water over the reef of rocks, and at the same moment ho heard the captain give the order, " Starboard, hard heard two orde rs g i ven a t thi s ti me , Stephen, who was at the wheel, he j h u Jas. Ph at d a- e a c t l a a r r b e e s a t r i d i the first being to " Port helm," and immediately afterwards to " Starboard the helm." The orders given to the engineer in charge at the same time were to " Ease her," and then " Stop, back full speed." Before the latter order could be carried into effect, however, the vessel struck on a reef of sunken rocks,which extend about 200 yards from Scotstown Head, and distant three miles north of Peterhead. After the vessel struck th e eng i nes were k e pt re versed, and the usual signals were made, in order to obtain assistance from the shore, but none being at hand, the chief mate was landed with instruc tions to procure a horse and ride to Peterhead, and from thence to communicate with the manager for the company to whom the ship belonged at Aber deen. At first the vessel made little water, but the engines were kept going for the purpose of keeping her dry until the tide left the vessel. She had then began to list somewhat to port, and the boiler on that side was therefore blown off so as to right her. The chief mate returned to the vessel about 12 noon. and found that by that time the whole of the live stock had been landed, and that two anchors had been laid out, the one forward hove taut to the cap stan, and the other abaft hove taut to the steam windlass, this being done to steady the ship and to prevent her drawing further on shore. A third an chor was afterwards got out, and the warp brought to the steam crane. When the tide flowed the engines were again reversed, the pumps worked, and the cables hove taut until between 2 and 3 p.m., when three tugs arrived from Aberdeen, and gave their assistance to try and haul the vessel off the rocks. All this, however, was of no avail, and about 4 p.m. the fore and after holds were full to the level of water, which soon after broke into the engine-room and extinguished the fires. The wind had now in- creased to a gale, the sea was heavy, and there was also a heavy rain. The master and crew stayed on board, however, during that night, as they con sidered they might yat be of some service, and they employed themselves during the night getting out the stores, &c., so as to lighten the ship. On Mon day night they all left the ship with the exception of four hands, who still remained to act as a watch. On Tuesday they made further exertions to save the y ship, b u t th ese were o f no use, as the weather was stormy, and on W e d nes d a s he finally broke up. After a caref u l cons id erat i on of the whole circum stances of this case, as contained in the evidence of the several witnesses examined on oath, and in the master's statement an d pro t es t, the subscribing jus tices are of opinion that the captain's over c onfidenc e in his po s iti on, a nd as to his distanc e from Kin naird's Head Li g h t, was the cause o f thi s ca t a stroph e , s and they Pf afi very much think he to blame for not having used the lead, keeping in view that he was then approaching the land in thick hazy weather. They have now therefore to report that, as em powered by the 23d section of the act 25 and 26 Vic., cap. 63, they ha - Ve made order to suspend Capt. Geddes's certificate for the period of three months. In justice to Capt. Geddes, however, they would beg to call attention to the high character as a seaman borne by him, as shown by the testi monials of Copt. Tudor, It.N., and of another gen tleman produced in court, and by the evidence of several of the witnesses. Also to the praiseworthy exertions made by Capt. Geddes and the crew to save the ship and cargo after she went on shore. Humbly reported by J. R STERRETT DUFF, J.Y. for Aberdeenshire, JAMES CORSET, J.P. Aberdeen, 12th November, 1862. Aberdeen, 12th November, 1862.—We concur in the above report. COLIN CAMPBELL KANE, I Nautical Assessors. DUN FORBES, COPY OF JUDGMENT REFERRED TO. Aberdeen, Ist November, 1862.—The Court hav ing considered the whole evidence in this investiga tion, the statement of the Master of the ship Ham burg, and relative protest, are unanimously of opi nion that the loss of the said steamer Hamburg was caused by the default of Hugh Geddes, the Master, in not having used the lead, keeping in view that he was approaching the land in thick, hazy weather. The Court are also of opinion that, after the ship struck, Capt. Geddes and the crew made every exertion to save the ship and cargo. The Court hereby suspend the certificate of Capt. Geddes in terms of the 23d section of the Act 25 and 26 Victoria, cap. 63, for the period of three calendar months only, in consideration of the circumstances of the case, of the high character borne by Captain Geddes, and of the praiseworthy exertions made by him to save the ship and cargo after she went on shore.

Hugo Dullens, a German, who, it is supposed, has been for several years carrying on an extensive sys tem of frauds upon the commercial community of the City, by carrying on business under fictitious names, was placed at the bar of the Mansion-house on Saturday, before the Lord Mayor, to undergo a final examination upon a charge of obtaining by means of false pretences a quantity of woollen goods to the value of about £l2O from Messrs. Thackrah and Co., of 20, Lawrence-lane, and also a quantity of carpet, &c., to the amount of £26 odd from Messrs. Tapling and Co., of Gresham-street, carpet manufacturer. Mr. Geo. Lewis again appeared to conduct the prosecution, and Mr. Murray attended on behalf of the prisoner. On the former occasion Mr. Lewis's statement was to the effecP that the prisoner had for years carried on business of various kinds in London, and in 1859 he became bankrupt, and did not ob tain his discharge until January in the present year. He then took an office in Little Britain, and carried on business under the name of Teede, Lester, and Co. In June he again went through the Bankruptcy Court, and he was con fined in Whitecross-street prison, where he re mained until August, when he obtained his cer tificate, a third-class one, and wets at the same time released." He then appeared to have commenced business at his office in Little Britain under the name of Walter Berthold and Co., which name he had painted on the door as well as Teede, Lester, and Co., and again he set up a firm as Hugo Dul lens and Co. He obtained goods from different houses under these names, he himself being the party who constituted the three firms. He appeared to have been in the habit of ordering goods at diffe rent warehouses, promising to pay cash on delivery, and on the goods being sent to his office he gave a cheque in payment which, on being presented, was returned unpaid, and marked "no effects." In nearly every case he post-dated the cheques, apparently under the impression that by so doing he would evade the law. A cheque-book was found upon him containing the counterfoils of a number of cheques to the amount of up wards of £7OO which were made payable to diffe rent firms in the City, nearly all of which were payable on the 10th November, which was a day or two subsequent to his apprehension, and before which day he intended no doubt to make a grand coup, and at the same time, "make himself scarce." This latter supposition was the more apparent from a number of bills of exchange which were found upon the prisoner, amounting in the aggregate to a considerable sum, several of which were drawn by himself upon Teede and Lester, and Walter Bert hold, and Teede and Lester, and Walter Berthold upon himself, and which were in readiness for cir culation. It will be remembered that witnesses were called, by whose evidence it appeared, that in October last the prisoner went to the warehouse of Messrs. Tapling and Co., and selected some carpets and rugs to the amount of £26, for which he promised to pay cash. The goods were sent to his office by the porter, to whom the prisoner gave a cheque upon Messrs. Jones and Webster, bankers,:Newington. Upon the porter taking the cheque back it was dis covered that it was post-dated. It was however, presented on the day it was made payable, and was returned unpaid. On Nov. 4 tho prisoner went to the warehouse of Messrs. Thackrah, of Lawrence lane, and there selected cloth goods to the amount of £ll4, the agreement being that he was to pay £5O of the £ll4 at the time the goods were deli vered. The prisoner directed the goods to be sent home that day, and said he would pay the £5O to Mr. Thackrah, if he went with them. The goods were accordingly sent in the course of the afternoon of the 4th, and Mr. Thackrah went for the money. The prisoner wrote him a cheque for £5O on Messrs Jones and Webster, which he at first dated Nov. 10th, but which, at the request of Mr. Thackrah, he altered to the sth, at the same time asking him not to present it until the after part of the day. The cheque was presented on the sth, and was returned unpaid. Mr. Lewis now said that, although there were a great many cases similar to that of Messrs. Thackrah and Messrs. Tapling against the prisoner, he did not intend to go into them, but merely to complete the two cases which had been already gone into ; but he thought it right to mention that besides the offices at 13, Little Britain, where the prisoner carried on business under the names of Teede, Les ter, and Co., and Walter Berthold and Co., and Hugo Dullens, he had offices in Burystreet, St. Mary-axe, and in James-street, Bermondsey, and carried on business at the latter place in the name of Murray. While in Bury -street the prisoner had obtained a quantity of watches to the amount of up wards of £2,000 from Messrs Leontre and Souhef, a firm at St. Croix, in Switzerland, in the name of Hugo Dullens. Mr. Pollaky, the foreign agent, had been in communication with those gentlemen, and since the last examination he had received a letter from them, which was in the prisoner's handwriting, and signed Hugo Dullens, and in which lie acknow ledges the receipt of the watches; but Mr. Pollaky unfortunately received the information too late, and was unable to discover any trace of the goods, and the prisoner, owing to the number of names under which he traded, had many facilities of making away with them, or at least destroying any trace of them. John C. Austin, an usher in the Court of Bank ruptcy, said he Knew the prisoner by the name of Hugo Dullens. He produced the papers of the prisoner's bankruptcy on June 24, 1859. The pri soner did not obtain his certificate till January, 1862. He also produced the papers and petition of the prisoner's bankruptcy in June, 1862. On that occasion he obtained his discharge in August, but he was in Whitecross•street until he obtained his certificate. The prisoner was not described in the proceedings of the second bankruptcy as t ra ding nnder the name of Teede, Lester, and Co., or Walter Berthold and Co., but lie was described as Huge Dullens, known as and calling himself William Murk ay. Mr. Lewis said the prisoner had unfortunately take..:_ the same name as that. of a very respectable gentleman 'who attended on his behalf, and he wished it to be clearly understood that it was not for a moment supposed that there was any connec tion between the two names. Salomon Caro said he was engaged as clerk to the prisoner in September last. He was with him about five weeks. During that time he did not see any one named Walter Berthold, except the pri soner, who, during the first fortnight, called him self Frederick Teede, and after that he called him self Walter Berthold. He knew the prisoner's hand writing, and the two cheques payable to Messrs. Tapling and Messrs. Thackrah were his writing. The prisoner directed him to write to Sheffield to obtain some goods, and he, seeing the kind of busi ness he was carrying on, declined to do so, and he left him. Mr. Lewis said the witness, he believed, was highly respectable, and there was no reason to sup pose that he had been acting in complicity with the prisoner, although he was for a time in his service. Charles Bainbridge, manager to Messrs. Farraby, engineers, said the prisoner called upon him in Oc tober last, and purchased goods to the amount of £4 17s. Gd., in payment for which he forwarded a cheque, which he produced for that amount. The cheque was sent in a letter, which likewise con tained an order for an engine, value £6O, which the prisoner wanted got ready It shipment imme diately. The cheque was drawn upon Messrs. Jones and Webster, and was post-dated. On being pre sented it Was returned unpaid. Mr. Lewis said he had called the last witness to show that at the time the prisoner obtained the goods from Mr. Thackrah he must have been aware that he had no money in the hands of Messrs. Jones and Webster. Mr. John Webster was then called, and said he was one of the firm of Jones and Webster, at Bridge house-place, Southwark, where he carried on the business of a banker and loan office. The prisoner had for some time kept a drawing account with them, and was supplied with a cheque-book for the purpose of drawing cheques. The cheque-book pro duced, which was found on the prisoner, was delivered to him upon an order, which he produced, which requested him to send a cheque-book, or some old cheques, as he wanted some next week. The order was signed by the prisoner. Mr. Lewis remarked that the prisoner had drawn cheques to the amount of £7OO during that " next week." He said he wanted them. The Witness continuing, said—On the 30th of October there was no money in our hands belonging to the prisoner, nor has there been any since that date. The prisoner was at that time in the firm's debt to the amount of £BO, against which they held goods to about the same amount. The goods con sisted of silk for umbrellas and musical boxes, which had been in their possession about eight months. He originally knew the prisoner as Hugo Dullens, but latterly he knew him as Walter Berthold and Co. He was not aware of the prisoner's second bankruptcy. He knew of the first, and was a loser to a slight extent by it. On being cross-examined by Mr. Murray, the witness said he did not think he had ever sent the prisoner word that his account was overdrawn. He had paid a great many of the prisoner's cheques. Police-constable Charles Underwood said he apprehended the prisoner on the 6th November upon the present charge. He searched him, and found on him two lots of money, one lot for Teede, Lester, and Co., and the other lot for Walter Ber thold and Co. He also found a quantity of cards, with the names of Teede, Lester, and Co., and Walter Berthold and Co., and a quantity of bills of ex change with Hugo Dullens printed across them, which Mr. Lewis remarked gave them the appear ance of first-rate bills, and a quantity of papers, amongst which were the two letters addressed to the prisoner, and which were produced on the last occasion. One was dated Oct. 22, and requested the prisoner to send the writer some money, as he was in pawn at the hotel, and it would take about L 4 to redeem him, and he was entirely without money. He had tried to get one of the bills discounted, but had failed. He had news of great importance, and re quested that the prisoner would send some money immediately. The other was dated Oct. 27, and stated that the writer was about to be kicked out of his hotel if he did not pay his bill of £l. They had given him the bill, and told him in the morning if he did not pay the money they would keep him no longer. He could not pay the postage, as he had not a penny. Both letters were signed" J. Lester." The officer likewise found a number of papers, together with the cheque-book, at the prisoner's office in Little Britain. The cheque-book contained the counterfoils of the cheques given to Messrs. 'Nlling and Messrs. Thackrah. The prisoner was committed for trial. SINGULAR TRIAL. The Assize Court at Paris, on Thursday, writes our correspondent, was crowded yesterday morning by a well-dressed audience, among whom were several actors and actresses, to hear a singularly dramatic trial for an attempted murder. The pri soner, a young man of 19, but looking younger, was a jeuneprenzzer (player of lover's characters) at the little theatre of Mont Parnasse. His name is Du mont. He appears to have been a sort of Cheru bim', sighing after every lady within his ken. The actresses to whom he made love laughed at him and treated him as a child, and their husbands or pro tectors never considered him a rival worth notice. In the course of the summer he became very seriously in love with the wife of a brother actor, named Demon geot, with whom he was on terms of intimacy. He wrote her —several amatory epistles, which she never answered; but she gave him no encou ragement, reproved him when they met, and although she did not show the love letters to her husband, only abstained, as it seems, in mercy to her youthful admirer. On July 5, while Demangeot was on the stage in character at the Mont Parnasse Theatre, Dumont went to his dressing-room, took the key of his apartments from the pocket of the ordinary clothes which he found there, returned to the body of the theatre, where he vehemently ap plauded his friend, and then stealthily making use of the key, got into his lodgings, There he partly undressed himself, and, armed with a poignard and a carving knife, took up an expectant position under Madame Demangeot's bed. There he was when the unsuspecting husband came home at midnight. The wife, who had been playing at the Island Theatre, in the Bois do Boulogne, did not get home till half an hour later. The couple took their supper together leisurely, and it was about two in the morning before they retired to rest—in separate beds. Dumont waited quietly till they were well asleep, 'and must have remained in his hiding place for nearly four hours. At three in the morning he got up and made a murderous attack on M. Deman geot in his bed, inflicting no less than 15 wounds, none of which, however, happily, proved fatal or even dangerous. The wife, awakened by her husband's screams, ran down stairs in her night dress, crying for help. A police-sergeant and a neighbour quickly came to her assistance, and Dumont was secured while struggling with his victim, with whom he was rolling over and over on the floor. Under these circumstances Dumont is indicted on the capital charge of having, with premeditation and guet a pens (lying in wait), at tempted to murder Demangeot. . From the deposi tions and the examination of the prisoner in court, is to be collected that his intention was to mur der the husband, and then, if possible, poss ess th e wife; or, in case of her resistance, to murder her and kill himself. As soon as the examination of utpri soner's h w i tnesses was concluded, the Imperial P rocurtur moved thieeeosusretstshpaetk,emofashmllnucahs reputed some ed insane,of the s tr c i n a e l h r' s swtn o uld be postponed to another session, in or der to afford time for medical examination. This motion energetically igereenJ Opposed b y t h e pr i soner ' s counsel, Algernon Jones (a Fr enc h b arr i s t er o f English birth), wh o contended that during the three months which his client had been in prison the public prosecutor had had plenty of time to in quire into the state of his mind, and abundant I notice that the question would be raised for the defence. The court, howe'rer, to the great disap pointment of the audience, acceded to the Imperial Procureur's demand, and so the trial stands ad journed. • In his letter on Saturday our correspondent says :--" The condensed report of the extraordinary trial at the Assize Court, yesterday, which I gave from memory, was substantially correct as far as it went, but I was too far off to hear all the witnesses said, and I find in theilegal journals two or three additional facts which are worth noticing. I men tioned that the prisoner Dumont obtained access to his friend Demangeot's lodgings by taking the key from the pocket of his trousers while the latter was on the stage performing in costume. The question may occur to your readers how did Demangeot get into his own room when ho left the theatre ? I should have said that Dumont found a second key in the lodging, hanging up in a place which he knew of. Taking this, he went back to the theatre, restored a key to the pocket of.the trousers from which he had taken one, went into the body of the theatre, made himself con spicuous by vehemently applauding his friend and intended victim, and then sneaking back to his home to lie in wait for him under his bed. Calculating that he would want light to strike a deadly blow Dumont provided himself with some lucifer matches. When, rightly judging that the hus band and wife must be asleep, he came out from his lurking place, he drew a lucifer match along the floor, to light it. Demangeot, who fortunately for himself slept lightly, was awakened by the slight noise, which he mistook for the scratching of a cat, and when his half •opened eyes saw a phos phoric light he felt confirmed in the supposition, for he fancied it proceed from the eyes of the cat. He jumped out of bed, and at once felt the gash of a knife. Then he struggled in the dark with his assailant, as before described, and received fifteen wounds. The wife, who ran for assistance, was not conscious of the presence of an assassin, but fancied that her husband was in a raving fit. " On the occasion of this trial, it has been re marked that the proportion of crimes committed by members of the theatrical profession is less than in any other class of society. I rather think that Eng lish statistics silo* an analogous fact." ASSASSINATION A 7 MEDINA. A letter from Djeddah, in the _Levant Herald of the sth, says :—" The latest item of news in this quarter is the assassination of Djemal-ul . Ell, chief the Ulemas, at Medina, and a descen dant of the Prophet. The incident is looked upon by all classes here a an important political event, and one which is likely to be attended with grave consequences. It appears that Reschid Seghim, Sheik of the Dubub tribe, in the neigh bourhood of Medina, ordered his son to proceed with three men to the chief Ulema's residence and despatch him. The cause assigned for this act is that the Duhub chief had some personal animosity against his victim, but another version has it that political motives are mixed up with it. The young man and his three associates, who were sent on this bloody mission, on arriving were received with every courtesy, the ostensible object of their visit being a friendly one. Narghides and coffee were duly handed to them, after partaking of which the four drew their pistols, and, firing together, shot the venerable Ulema dead. Two slaves, a male and female, hearing the report en tered the room, where they were at once attacked, the woman being mortally wounded, and the man killed outright. The murderers immediately after wards took to flight. Reschid Seghim is a pensioner of the Viceroy of Egypt for services rendered by him to Mehemed Ali. Without the firmness of the go vernor, Izzet Pacha, and the Scheriff Abdulall Pacha,a vast amount of intestine trouble would have arisen in the holy places out of this outrage, and most probably have obliged the authorities to ask the help of Egyptian troops, which, doubtless, the Viceroy would have readily given. Without having recourse to such a step, Izzet Pacha at once de spatched a force against the Duhub tribe under Muhabuz Suleiman Bey, who succeeded in beating them into something like order."
