THE BRIBERY COM3IISSION. BERWICK-UPON-TWEED. The commissioners re-assembled this morning in the Committee-room No. 10, House of Commons. The first witness examined was William M'Gall, who took a very prominent part in the election with regard to which the present inquiry was instituted. He admitted having received money from Captain Gordon :for distribu tion among the poor, but not for the purpose of bribing the electors. He had received a large sum from Captain Gordon on one occasion. Ho recollected having upwards of £5OO. The chairman then went through the list of voters on the occasion, and asked the witness to signify those who had received money from him out of that sum. M'Gall, when the list had been gone through, ac•, counted for about £lO, when the Chairman informed him that it would be absolutely necessary for him to furnish the Commissioners with the names of the parties who had re ceived the greater part of the money, as it appeared to him to be perfectly impossible that he (M'Gall) could have for gotten the names of all the parties to whom he had paid money with the exception of the £lO ho had accounted for. The Commissioners would insist that by to-morrow morn ing the list might be forthcoming. The whole of the money it was not expected could now be accounted for, but at all events the greater part he thought the witness could account for if he felt so disposed, and under such circumstances it was imperative that the directions of Commissioners should be obeyed. The examination of the witness was then proceeded with. He said he had never, previous to the election of 1859, given bribes to any of the electors, freemen or non-freemen. After some other questions had been answered by the witness all bearing on the distribution of money, the com mittee adjourned. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(TIII8 DALE) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE COMING " FIFTII OF NOVIAMBER."—A boy named George Tracey was charged before Mr. Beadon with dis charging fireworks in the public streets, to the danger of the, passengers. A constable, 53 E, proved geeing the boy, who was in company of several others, discharge some fireworks in the neighbourhood of Tottenham-court-road, and then took him into custody. It may be stated that the nuisance is nightly 'increasing, Inspector Garforth, of the E division, stating that on the previous evening a person complained to him of a boy having thrown a lighted squib into a room, the window of which had been left open. _ _ Mr. Beadon said he would not permit fireworks to be discharged in the streets. The sth of November was coming, and if persons were brought before him he would fine them heavily. The religious distinctions were fast being put an end to, and very properly so ; and in his dis trict, at all events, he would try and stop it. He would discharge him this time, but he would caution him not to discharge fireworks again. THIS DAY'S MARKETS. DEATII OF THE EARL OF DUNDONALD. The Earl of Dundonald died yesterday morning at one o'clock, at his residence in Kensington. His lordship was in his 85th year. The venerable nobleman retained all his faculties to the last. It will be in the recollection of many of our readers that his lordship, though in advanced years, underwent a painful operation for the stone, from which, by the skilful treatuAent of his medical attendants, and a naturally vigorous constitution, he had completely recovered. On Tuesday after noon at half-past five o'cloc'k he was suddenly at tacked with alarming illness, and at one a.m. yes terday he expired. Owir,g to the suddenness of the attack several meroibers of his family were unable to have the consdation of being present at his dissolution. The following biog...aphical notice of the de ceased nobleman is fro m Men of our Time : Thomas Cochrane Dundonald, tenth Earl of Dundonald, better - known as Lord Cochrane, was born Dec. 14, 1775, and when only five years of age, his name wan entered on the books of the Vesuvius, bomb, commanded by his uncle, Captain Cochrane, who transferred it successively to the Carolina and Sophie, He did not go to sea till the 27th June, 1193, when he embarked with his re lative in the Hind, of 28 guns. Previously to this he had been gazetted to a captaincy in the 79th Foot, but had not joined his regiment. On the 17th May, 1795, when acting-lieutenant of the Thetis, 42, commanded by his uncle, he con tributed, with the Hussar, of 28 guns, to the de feat, on the coast of North America, of a French squadron of five sail, two of which were captured. His confirmation to the Thetis took place May 24, 1796, and he subsequently joined, after serving in various ships, the Queen Charlotte, flag-ship, in the Mediterranean, of Admiral Lord Keith. On December 21st, 1799, he was sent from Gib raltar Bay in command of the boats of the Queen Charlotte and the Emerald frigate, to relieve the Lady Nelson cutter, then surrounded and attacked, off Cabritta Point, by several French privateers and Spanish gunboats, some of which he pursued and boarded with the most undaunted gallantry, chasing others under the very cannon of the harbour. On the capture, Feb. 18, 1800, of the French 74, Le Genereux, he was appointed her acting captain; but on 28th March following he was promoted to be Master and Commander of the Speedy, sloop-of-war, of 16 guns and 54 men ; and in the ten succeeding months he took 33 vessels, carrying, in all, 128 guns, and 533 men, besides assisting at the capture of many others. For one of these, the seizure by boarding of the Spanish frigate El Gamo, 32 guns, off Barcelona, on the 6th of May, 1801, he received his commission as post captain, dated August Bth following. He succeeded in cutting out a Spanish convoy at Oroposo, lying under the protection of a strong battery and numerous gunboats. On the 3d July, however, the Speedy was herself captured by the French squadron under Admiral Linois. On this occasion Lord Cochrane's courage had been so conspicuous that, on presenting bis sword to the captain of the French 74, Dessaix, it was returned to him, with the request that he would continue to wear what he had so nobly used. On the 6th of the same month he was on board the French squa dron when attacked by Sir J. Saumarez in Algesiras Bay, and being soon afterwards exchanged he re turned to England, and went on half-pay. On the sth. of October he was appointed to the Arab, 22 guns, from which ship, after serving at the blockade of Boulogne, he removed on the 3d Dec., 1804, to the Pallas frigate, 32, in which in the fol lowing year he was sent out with despatches to his uncle Admiral Sir A. Cochrane, at that time em ployed in the blockade of Ferrol. Whilst cruising off the Spanish coast in March, .1805, he made a considerable number of prizes, amongst which was the Fortuna, from Rio de la Plata to Corunna, with specie to the amount of £150,000 sterling, besides a considerable quantity of merchandise, but he gene rously returned 10,000 crowns to the Spanish cap tain and supercargo. Early in April, 1806, the Pallas was employed in the Gironde, a river very difficult of navigation ; and on this service he suc ceeded in cutting out the Tapagense corvette of 14 long 12 pounders and 95 men, and notwithstanding she lay 20 miles above the Cordovan shoal, under the protection of two heavy batteries. In the fol lowing month, with the marines and boats' crews, he destroyed the semaphores along the French coast, and bore off the signal flags. The bat tery at Point d'Equilon he carried by storm and laid in ruins, spiking the guns, burning the car riages, blowing up the barrack and magazine, and throwing all the shells into the sea. On the 23d of August he assumed the command of the Impe rieuse, 44 guns, and between the 13th of Decem ber, 1806, and the 7th of January, 1807, some days short of a month, he took and destroyed fifteen of the enemy's ships, chiefly laden with wine and provisions. He was afterwards sent to co-operate with the patriots on the coast of Catalonia, and on the 21st of July, 1808, he compelled the sur render of the castle of Mongat, by which the road to Gerona, then besieged by the French, had been completely commanded. In September he re newed his operations against the semaphores, on the coast of Languedoc, and blew up the newly construsted semaphoric telegraph at Bourdique, La Pimede, St. Maguire, Frontignan, Cault, and Foy, with the houses attached to them, fourteen barracks of the gendarmes, a battery, and the strong tower upon the Lake of Frontignan. In 1809 he volunteered for the defence of Trinidad Castle, attached to the fortress of Rosas on the coast of Catalonia, then besieged by the French. At the head of 80 of his own men, and about an equal number of the Spaniards, he repelled 1,000 of the enemy in an assault on the castle. He protracted the siege for twelve days, but on the citadel capitulating he blew up the magazine of Trinidad Castle, and retired to his ship. In April, 1809, he was selected by the First Lord of the Ad miralty, from his daring intrepidity, to command a fleet of fire-ships intended for the destruction of the French fleet then lying at anchor, and blockaded by Lord Gambier, in the Basque Roads. On the night of the 11th of that month he went on board one of the explosion ships containing 1,500 barrels of gunpowder, and performed the hazardous service confided to him most effectually. For his signal gallantry on this occasion he re ceived the Knighthood of the Bath. He had been chosen M.P. first for Honiton, and afterwards, in" 1807, for Westminster, and as he intimated his intention to oppose the vote of thanks proposed by the Government to Lord Gambier, who had the chief command in the Basque Roads affair, that nobleman was subjected to a court-martial, but acquitted. In the early part of 1814 Lord Coch rane fell into the snare of some designing knaves and was charged with fraudulent designs on the Stock Exchange. The fraud in which he was said to have been implicated was committed by a rascal named Random de Berenger, who contrived that, on February 22, an express should be sent from Dover with the information that a French officer had arrived announcing the death of the Emperor Napoleon by assasination. The funds rose nearly 10 per cent. in consequence of the false news. The fraudulent speculators anticipated to rea lise a considerable amount by their ne farious conduct ; but they were disappointed in their evil gain, as all bargains on that account were nullified. Lord Cochrane and others were tried and convicted. His lordship was s entenced to pay a fine of £5O O , to be imp risoned for twelve .the months, and at the end of that t ime to stand pillory ; but the last disgrace ful p art of his punish ment was remitted on account of his greatpoPu larity. He was expelled the House of Commons on his conviction, in which assembly he took , how ever, the oaths and his se at on his temporary escape Tilly, a ble of the 1 815.

That his lordship was the dupe of designing persons there is not the remotest doubt, but the popular belief at that time was that he was the victim of political or interested knavery. Perhaps the greatest indignity he had to suffer for his in discretion was his degradatica as 11 might of the (From Ike Doily News.) Great Britain has lost the last of her ancien, Sea-kings. The paragon of the British navy in its heroic age, the brilliant rival in desperate service and dauntless exploit of Nelson himself, the sync - sure of Nelson's bravest captains—Thomas Coch rane, Earl of Dundonald, is gone, in the fulness cf years and honours, to rejoin the company of his departed countrymen and comrades. In the peace ful quiet of his English home, this illustrious cap tain, whose name was the terror of the enemy's coasts, and a legend in every sea from the sun rise to the sunset, when as yet our grand fathers were boys, sinks at last into wellwon repose. When the present century was only dawning, young Cochrane was doing deeds by sea and land which will be remembered as long as Europe has a history. From his by hood he pursued death and glory with all the eager passion of a lover. The flag of his country was his lodestar, and, by day and night, throngs battle and tempest, through the iron hail of the enemy's guns, he watched over its stainless glory with unsleeping jealousy and insatiable devotion. The name of Cochrane is to this hour, and must ever be, a living and speaking memory and tradi tion in the noblest national service in the world. From 1795 to 1814 it was the astonishment and ad miration of all the gallant enemies of England. " Not even the British Navy could do it," is a saying which the career of Cochrane might have justified, if a Blake and a Nelson had never lived. Nowhere, we believe, is this great name more honoured, nowhere will the news of this death be receiv ed with a thrill of more generous emotion, than among the gallant countrymen of Linois and Dessaix. For as all the world is the tomb of heroes, so among the brave even an " enemy" is cherished as a comrade when ti battle's done. The scroll of Lord Dundonald's services is nothing more nor less than the naval history of that " war of giants." In the Channel, in the Mediterranean, in the Bay of Biscay, in the Atlantic his energy and activity were übiquitous and incessant, and fortune favoured his audacit_yr; But his daring did not surpass his g enius. 1 1, fertility of resource, in instant perceptihotn n opportunity, in calm, decisive forethouvigill, thei unwavering judgment, in tenacity as f never want most dashing and reckless advent (:•es, as they seemed to the timid or the dull, werets of the sea ing.

To his dying day he never forgot those liberal electors of 'Westminster ; and in the dedication of his autobiography he identifies his name for ever with their patriotic suffrages.

He succeeded his father as Earl Dundonald in 1841, and became Vice-Admiral of the Blue, Nov. 23, 1641. He was appointed Commander-in-Chief on the North American and West Indian Station in 1848. In 1851 he became Vice-Admiral of the White, and in 1854 Rear-Admiral of the United Kingdom. Be sides his other honours he was a baronet of Scot land and Nova Scotia of 1671 ; G.C.8., 1847 ; Grand Gross of the Imperial Brazilian Order of the Cruzero ; Knight of the Royal Order of the Re deemer of Greece, and of the Order of Merit of Chili. He enjoyed a high reputation for his scien tific attainments, and was the author of a pamphlet entitled " Observations on Naval Affairs," in which he inserted a summary of his naval services and ex posed several acts of injustice which he had experi enced in the performance of his duty. He long ago invented a project for blowing up and annihilating fleets, which was submitted to the Government ; and it is said that it was so overwhelmingly destructive that, at the personal request of George IV., he not only abstained from using it, but pledged his honour to his Majesty that he would never use it without the sanction of the Crown. He is understood to have suggested seve ral valuable hints for the improvement of our steam navy. To those desirous of a more detailed record of his career we refer them to " The Autobiography of a Seaman," the first volume of which, from the pen of the noble admiral, has been published, and the second and concluding volume has been announced as " nearly ready." In 1856 the lamented admiral was elected an elder brother of the Trinity House ; was restored in 1847 among the knights of the Order of the Bath, being reappointed 22d May that year a Grand Cross of that most honourable institution of knight hood. For his emineat services abroad he was decorated a G rand Cross of the Order of the Cruzero of Brazil, a Knight of the Saviour of Greece, and of Merit of Chili. The late admiral's commission bore date as follows :—Lieutenant, May 24, 1796 ; commander, March 28, 1800; captain, August 8, 1801; rear admiral, May 2, 1832 ; vice admiral, November 23, 1841; and admiral, March 21, 1851, and was rear admiral of the United Kingdom. The late earl of Dundonald succeeded to the ancient honours of his house on the death of his father, who died in his 84th year, in 1831.

OF ALBERTO AR Yesterday we noticed the rumour current in Newcastle that our brave young townsman, M r. Alfred Gorringe, had fallen in the first encounter of the British Brigade before Capua ; to-day w e learn, by private letters from Naples, that Signor Alberto Mario, the husband of Madame Jessie White Mario, has also been killed. He was sent by Garibaldi, at the head of a coluinn of one thou• sand men, to put down a reactionary movement in Molise. The patriots were overpowered and cut to pieces by a body of Neapolitan soldiers six times their number. Only forty out of the thousand are reported as being saved, and in that number Mario's name does not occur. The encounter is said to have been tremendous, the Garibaldians having fought like lions, and against desperate odds. Signor Mario was a member of a very old Vene tian family who have lived on the same estates for centuries, and have suffered severely from time to time by the persecutions of the Austrians. He was a barrister by profession, but in the siege of Venice in 1848 and 1849 he fought under Manin. Although he entered the service as a common soldier his skill and courage soon raised him to a superior command. After the fall of Venice he retired to Genoa, where he supported himself by writing for the liberal news papers and by teaching. In 1856 and 1857 he took an active part in organising the expedition which, under the brave Pisacane and Nicotera, sailed for Naples on board the Cagliari. For his complicity in this matter he was driven from Genoa by the Sardinian Government. For a short time he resided in Switzerland, and then came to Eng land, where he lived for some months, and then, in company with his wife, went to America. He returned to this country in the beginning of last year, when he and Madame Mario went to Italy. The Sardinian Government refused to allow either of them to remain, and after having suffered a short imprisonment as suspects, they were re leased by the urgent entreaties of Garibaldi, and allowed to go again to Switzerland. They lived there till the expedition to Sicily, in April last. , when Mario and his wife joined Garibaldi. The former took the charge of the military school, organised by the Dictator in Palermo, while the latter superintended the hospitals. When Gari baldi landed in Calabria, Mario was one of his staff, and in that capacity continued till he was sent on the fatal expedition which we have men-, tioned. Mario was about 32 or 33 years of age, active, and of a fine soldierly appearance. He was an ardent republican, and a devoted follower of Maz zini. His literary attainments were considerable, n d he was a regular contributor to many of the first-class continental magazines and reviews. Garibaldi had a strong personal attachment to him, and he was one of the few men to whom the Dictator was understood to be at all communicative respecting his military or political projects. He was in the neighbourhood of Newcastle for some time, along with his wife, in the spring of 1858, and his untimely death will be a source of great regret to the many friends he made while here. Madame Mario follows the camp of the Gari baldians, and has the chief command of all the hos pital arrangements. Her energy and good heartedness have won her troops of friends, even amongst the partisans of Cavour, who look with horror on her political opinions. She was married shortly after her release from prison in Genoa, in 1857.—Newcastle Chronicle. BRITISH POSSESSIONS Closing Shar e Fitk. Railways. Paid. 1 Business done Frice. 100 Atlantic X.

TUB COBUROS AT FAULT.—Unconsciously, King Leopold, hackneyed as he is in the ways of courts and diplo matists, may very possibly have been helping forward a great calamity. He has ruled his own little kingdom to admiration, but out of Belgium he has been the dynastic agent of the German Sovereigns. Were it not that even now the German nations have but a scant idea of political liberty, we might contrast their conduct in 1848-49 very unfavourably with that of the Italians in the years 1859- 60. The Italians have proved that they are more ready to make sacrifices of life and property than the Germans were twelve years ago, and yet the Germans affect to look down upon them as •an inferior race. Italy will yet be a nation, and will occupy a grand place at the council tableof Europe, before Germany has arrived at the conclusion that a union of despotism and pedantry is not the best possible form of government. But even in German:v what a change since 1830 ; and since 1815 I From the Ba ltic to the Alps, and from the Rhine to the Russian borders it is no longer possible that men can be ruled upon the old system. In those lands the thinkers are a patient, metaphysical race enough, but even they can scarcely be stirred again to do battle for the old-cries. They have been bricked and de rided by their rulers too often ; matchless as their forbear ance is, it is worn thread-bare. It is not possible that they could be induced to make any fresh sacrifices for the per petuation of principles which, however sacred in the eyes of their rulers, can scarcely be said to affect their own interests ha any other than an injurious set/ se,—Once a Week. DEFENCE OF PORTS.3IOIiTIL TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—Vice -Admiral Sir G. Sartorius, in his letter to the Times of the 24th inst., exactly reverses the views of the late sub-committee, which he errone ously styles the sub-committee on "National 1)e -fences," and he mistakes " what the Government wished to know from them." He implies that " a recommendation was made that a complicated work of booms, chains, nets, and innumerable anchors should be spread over so large a space as Spithead at a cost of £500,000, like a net for catching tunny fish;" and he expatiates o n the difficulty of keeping all this cumbrous compli cation in working order in winter and storm, and on the enormous inconvenience of embarrassing this important roadstead with all this mass of materials. So far were the committee from re commending anything of the kind for even t he p assages o o i f a head, that after dwelling on the en ormousNMan's cost Sp of floating barrier between th e Horse and Lad we n a th s e h r o t a o l s t h o i e e h n i a t b v e i n t l d t o b w e 1 1 e a n t d e d t t e h s e t r e s s t s a of o f that at high water there w for the largest vessels ou d ;till be a y broad. s l u a .b n sh d A u w e h n i t c l h y passage of sufficient de p th i between wouldreenadcher otfhtehebabrhr7earsuasneldes.sth;e cac i ous ly employ their report statesed for passage that such baorfrimerosdmeriagtethrbeeaedt and exposure to the sea. Again, Sir G. Sartorius says : " It seems to have escaped the attention of the commit tee theatththeien sbiymple remedy against shot-proof vessels is to the same kind of vessels. As these would o ppose osnstructed for harbour protection alone, they could be made more powerful and handy than those of the enemy." Now, the committee actually state th sh ato_eavy guns the aNe greater , a portion of the ves sels em p lo y ed as a local force (and c g a ) rry h speedwh ich o they o t are le accusedss than l o o t' ignoriri knots, protected by 4 1 ,- inch iron plates, be of at l eas t 2 - , 000 t o ns, old measurement, and. have sufficient momen tum and strength to render them effectual for running into vessels. It May by some be supposed that Sir G. Sar torius must have read the committee's report, and then dreamt that the suggestions were his own ; but how he could have imagined that be and they had arrived at opposite conclusions, while adopting their very arguments, cannot thus be accounted for. This enigma —and not the views of the committee —must henceforth be placed " amid all the incon gruities so abundantly occurring during and since the Russian war in public matters, particularly in military or naval matters," and which have " ex cited the smiles" of the gallant officer. Rear-Admiral Sir Thomas Maitland, the chair man of the committee referred to, is now in com mand of the Pacific station.
