So violent was the prisoner's conduct that he had to be kept handcuffed during his trial, and was in charge of a double guard, to prevent his committing any outrage in the court. After hearing the evidence, the Court found him guilty, and the sentence passed on him was for warded to the Admiralty for approval. MESSRS'. STRE 4 TFEIL n. LAUREN CE, AND .MORTL4IORE'S FAILURE. A very numerous meeting of the creditors of this firm was held yesterday, at the London Tavern, to hear a statement of the affairs of the insolvent firm, and to consider generally what steps were to be taken with regard to it. On the motion of Mr. W. Turquand, the ac countant to the estate, D. W. Chapman, Esq., of the house of Overend, Gurney, and Co., was called to the chair. The Chairman called on Mr. Turquand to read to the meeting the following statement of the affairs of the firm, together with a statement of the deficiency : STATEMENT OF AFFAIRS, JULY 2, 1860. DR.

Laurence and Mr. William Mortimoro GO,OOO 0 0 72,273 3 7 £214,624 6 3 483 12 0 payment of Mr. Laurence's share, and the other shares would go to a considerable extent to relieve him from those debts. But the division of the money was detained and still remained as assets. The other source was the profits of the business. He found that during the last three years, during which they had incurred these heavy debts, their gross profits amounted to £133,000 ; their gross charges for business, which were little less than £7,000 per annum, or £21,000 in three years, left a net profit of £108,813 in the three years. It was right to mention also that Mr. Laurence, seeing such a large amount of bad debts standing in his books, determined to apply the larger part of the profits in their reduction. In the year 1857 the profits amounted to £27,881, the whole of which was written off to bad debts. In 1858 the profits amounted to £39,792, of vt hich £30,000 was taken to suspense account, and £9,792 was applied to the bad debt fund. Nothing was taken to the credit of the partners in either of these two years. In 1859 the profits amounted to £42,830, of which £30,000 was taken to the suspense account, and £4,830 to the bad debt fund, while £4,000 was taken to the credit of each of the partners. So that in three years the sum of .£108,503 was set aside to the credit of bad debts. As he was on this subject, he might mention, in order to dispel certain mis apprehensions which existed with respect to the practice of the firm to charge a heavy commission on the renewal of these bad debts, he had heard it stated himself, about the period of the suspension, that they had been in the habitpon occasion of a renewal of bills, of charging their debtors a com mission of 2 per cent., which on bills renewed every three months would make 8 per cent. per annum, and with the 5 per cent. which they always charged would make 13 per cent. per annum on all renewed bills _He would state however, that this was not the`case. No c iaige at all or commission was made except on those houses where the debtors purchased goods from other parties, and then asked Messrs. Laurence and Mortimore to pay in cash, and came on them for the amount—in those instances they did charge a commission of 2 per cent., but the practice was confined to them, and they were very limited in number. With respect to the renewal of bills to the extent of £600,000 no such charge was made. Of course, in carrying on a business of this magnitude it was considered necessary that none of the houses with which they were connected should be allowed to suspend payment, and the partners hoped that, by affording them assistance, and by laying by their own profits to meet the losses that might accrue, they would be enabled ultimately to reduce the debt, for which purpose, as he had already informed the meeting, they had already laid by the sum of £lOB,OOO. But towards the end of May last the failure of Mr. Draper, of Kenilworth, brought things to a complete stand : still that house owed Alessrs. Laurence and Mortimore £50,000. They succeeded in retiring bills to the amount of £28,000, but doubts and mis givings began to arise, the usual channels for dis count began to be closed against them, and, more than that, demands were made that the discounts then outstanding should be reduced. Under these circumstances, regard being had to their large re quirements for discount, the partners felt it was useless to go further, and after an ineffectual struggle to stem the torrent they suspended pay ment on the 2d of July. Such was the history of this unfortunate affair ; and if any gentleman wished to have further information he would be happy to afford it. Mr. CHAYTOR said, if he understood Mr. Tar. quand, the liabilities for bills in 1857 amounted to £300,000, and they were now £BOO,OOO, although they had been reduced £lOO,OOO by the application of the profits. _ Mr. TURQUAND—The amount of bills now is £721,000. _ _ Mr. CHATTOR—How do you account for the dif ference ? Mr. TURQUAND—The demands of other houses in drawing funds would go far to account for the difference. The £lOB,OOO was written off before we undertook the investigation. Mr. CHAT TOR—Were these regular transactions, or were they only increased transactions on bills? Mr. TuRQUAND—Of course there was the in creased annual charge of 5 per cent. on the bills. Mr. CHAYTOR—Yes; but that will not account for the difference. Mr. TURQUAND—No, but I may mention that in the year 1857 the sum of £200,000 was added to the debt on account of the panic, which required that this house should furnish additional facilities to those firms connected with it. I am here, however, to state the fact of the increase. I cannot tell you the eases. Some of the accounts will require to undergo further investigation, especially the ac count with Messrs. Smith, Patient, and Smith, which amounts to £200,000, though in 1847 it was only £41,000. Mr. CLAYTOR—How do you account for the dif ference. Was it by accommodation bills ? Mr. TUEQuAND—No, not by accommodation bills. The accommodation bills are the £57,000 mentioned in the statement of deficiencies. Mr. CAAYTOR-But this is a most extraordinary difference in three years. Mr. TURQUAND-It is extraordinary, but you find that in one year it rose £200,000. And when Messrs. Laurence and Mortimore once entered on the course of keepiug other houses on their legs there was nothing for it but to go on. The CHAIRMAN—Are we to understand that, with the exception of the accommodation bills you have alluded to, all the others are genuine ? Mr. TURQUAND--I believe that all the rest repre sent value received. The CHAIRMAN—How many years have these £50,000 accommodation bills been going on ? Mr. TURQUAND—They all arose in this year. In January, 1859, some Liverpool house was in debt to this firm £9,000. Now the position is re versed, and Messrs. Laurence and Mortimore are £30,000 in debt to them. Mr. CHAYTOR—How is it that they have sus tained all this in three years ? Mr. TURQUAND—I cannot say how, but that they have is an undoubted fact. Mr. CHAYTOR—Such a loss in one house alone appears altogether incredible. Mr. TURQUAND—In the case of the failure of Messrs. Payne and Clark, of Bermondsey, Messrs. Laurence and Mortimore found the funds to replace their bad debts to the extent of £50,000. The CHAIRMAN—Then they drew bills to replace that sum drawn out of their business ? Mr. TURQUAND—Yes, undoubtedly. The bad debts were represented by bills._ Mr. CIIAYTOR—The bills drawn on Messrs. Smith, Patient, and Smith must be accommodation bills if they represent bad debts. Mr. TURQUAND—I cannot prevent you or any gentleman calling them accommodation bills or bad debts. Mr. CIIAYTOR—I cannot tell how satisfactory these statements may appear to other gentlemen ; to me they seem to require a great deal of further investigation. Mr. TURQUAND—I have already stated that •it is not for me to explain the causes; I am here only to state the facts and the figures. Mr. WHITE (of the City Bank)—Can you show us what were the net trading profits of the firm ? Mr. TURQUAND—The gross income for the last three years was £133,000, of which £lOB,OOO was represented by commission, and other sources, and £25,000 by interest. In 1857 the interest to their credit was £9OO ; in the three last years it had risen to £25,000. Mr. KENNA—I presume that the interest was absorbed by the bills drawn by Messrs. Laurence and Mortimore ? _ TURQUAND—NO ; the net profit of the in terest was £25,000, The partners were charged 5 per cent. on other biils, while they got their own at the bank rate. Mr. CHAYTOR—Then their profits were £40,000 a year. Mr. TURQUAND—Their gross profits amounted to £44,000 a-year. A gentleman in the room said he had been re quested by a gentleman near him to put this ques tion. Some years ago he deposited £6,500 in the hands of Messrs. Laurence and Mortimore, believ ing them to be in a solvent condition, and he would like to know if the house was really then in a position to take money. Mr. TURQUAND said the books had been not only well, but admirably, kept, so that he could tell in a short time how the house stood. He had had no difficulty with the books themselves; the only difficulty was that there were 900 open accounts, and each failure as it occurred affected the results of the whole. What was the date when the money was deposited ? The Gentleman said it had been going on for ten years. Mr. TURQUAND—Oh, in 1851. I believe the firm was perfectly solvent, assuming that the debts re presenting £360,000 were good. Mr. CHAYTOR—Assuming ? Mr. TURQUAND - Yes. I have not gone back to the origin of them all, but I have reason to believe they are good. The CHAIRMAN then said—Gentlemen, I have to P 4 1) . STAMPED. 5D make an announcement which 1 fear will cause some consternation among the creditors. We in tend to place this firm in bankruptcy. (Hear.) I have no doubt this will cause surprise to some, because when the failure first occurred our view was that the affairs of the firm should be wound up by administration. But then we had not the full view of the assets before us, and there are other circumstances which I shall state. Messrs. Ley land and Billins, the eminent bankers in Liver pool, and the principal creditors of the Liverpool estate, which is so mixed up with this house that where the one goes the other must necessarily fol low—they have signified their determination to place the Liverpool estate in bankruptcy ; and much as I regret it for the sake of the dividend, yet, as a matter of public interest, I think they have acted justly and rightly, and they have our full concurrence in what they have determined to do. Because we have here such an amount of accommodation paper put into circula tion, purporting to be drawn for goods, and spread over a number of houses where it is impossible to trace them, I am satisfied that we must have a full investigation into this gigantic system of —, But I will not characterise it as I think it ought to be done, (Hear, hear.) However much, therefore, I may regret the dividend—however much all of you may regret it—l believe that this is a perfectly just, right, and proper step to be taken, as a full investigation of all the circumstances can only take place in a Court of Bankruptcy. I shall be happy to find that you agree with me in this opinion, and in the hope that you do, I . beg to move as a resolu tion, "That while this meeting regrets the loss of the dividend which may arise under bankruptcy, yet as a matter of public interest this meeting is of opinion that the estate ought to be administered in the Bankruptcy Court." Mr. CHAYTOR—As representing one of the largest creditors, I beg to second the motion. I cannot say with pleasure, but because I believe it to be right. The nature of the estate is such, the assets are so small, the transactions involve so much suspicion—l do not say of dishonesty, but of over trading—that I believe it can only be satisfactorily wound up in bankruptcy, and therefore I second the motion. This resolution was then put to the meeting. At first the result was doubtful, and it was therefore put again ; but on the second occasion there was a decided show of hands against the resolution. It is fair to add, however, that the great body of the meeting did not vote at all. The CHAIRMAN said—l am very sorry to find that the sense of the meeting is against me—it may be in numbers, it may be in 'amounts. But how ever that may be, it will not alter our decision ; for we have already given instructions as to the course to be taken. I put this resolution to the meeting because I did believe that in an assembly of English merchants this infamous system of drawing accom modation bills, purporting to be good bills, would, at whatever cost to themselves, have met with a decided condemnation, and a determination to in vestigate them to the uttermost. I regret that the resolution has not met with your concurrence, but it will not affect our decision. The meeting then broke up. THE LATE CHILD MURDER AT ROAD. APPREHENSION OF MISS CONSTANCE KENT. ROAD, FRIDAY EVENING. This morning, at 11 o'cock, a meeting of magi strates was held at the Temperance-hall, Road, for the purpose of continuing the investigation into the murder of Francis Saville Kent, under the mysteri ous circumstances with which the public are already The following justices were present :—Mr. H. G. G. Ludlow (chairman), the Rev. R. Crawley, Mr. R. Walmisley, Mr. W. H. Sheppard, Mr. J. P. Stancombe, and Mr. W. P. Stancombe. Mr. Inspector Whicher, of the metropolitan de tective force; Captain Meredith, chief constable of Wilts ; Superintendents Foley, Abbot, Woolfe, and Simmers were also in attendance. From 11 o'clock till about half-past 3 the inquiry was conducted with closed doors, but Mr. Inspector Whicher appeared, having Miss Constance Kent, a half sister of the deceased child, in custody. The accused walked with a firm step from her father's house to the hall, but was in tears. She was accom modated with a seat in front of the magistrates' table. Mr. Inspector Whicher taking up his station on one side of her and Mr. Superintendent Woolf. on the other. She sat with her eyes fixed on the ground throughout the inquiry. The hall rapidly filled with inhabitants of Road and the neighbour hood as the intelligence became known that Miss Constance Kent had been apprehended. Mr. Ludlow (addressing the prisoner)—Your name is Constance Kent, I believe ? Prisoner (in a faint voice)—Yes. Mr. Clark, clerk to the magistrates—l will read to you the information of Jonathan Whicher, the inspector of detective police of the metropolis, who has taken you into custody, and this is the charge he has made against you :—" I have been engaged since Sunday last in investigating the circum stances connected with the murder of Francis Savile Kent, which took place on the night of Friday, the 29th of June last, at the house of his father, situate at Road, in the county of Wilts. From my examination of the premises, the scene of the murder, and from inquiries and in formation received, I have reason to believe that the said murder was perpetrated by an inmate of the house, and I suspect that Miss Constance Kent is implicated in the crime, and I pray for a warrant to apprehend her." Air: Ludlow—That is the information upon which you have been apprehended, and we shall now pro ceed to take evidence. Elizabeth Gough was then sworn, and deposed —I am nursemaid in the service of Mr. Kent. I recollect the 29th of June last. I had charge of the deceased child, and pnt him to bed as usual, about 8 o'clock . I saw him sleeping in his cot with his face towards the wall a little after 11. I then retired to rest as usual. Mrs. Kent came up about half an hour after, and shut the door when she left. I missed the child the following morning about 5 o'clock. I did not wake till that time after I went to sleep. The little girl was lying uncovered, and I got up and looked across, and saw the little boy was gone. I lay down again, and at 6 o'clock I went to Mrs. Kent's room, and knocked there, but got no answer. I afterwards went to Mrs. Kent's room a second time at about a quarter past 7. In the interval I had got the water for the second child, and had dressed her. Mrs. Kent was then in the dressing-room. I communicated the loss to her, and afterwards saw the child brought into the house. He was then quite dead. William Nott sworn—l am a shoemaker, residing at Road-hill. On the morning of the 30th of June a man called and told me that Mr. Kent had lost his child. I went out and saw Mr. Kent going to Trowbridge. I then went to the house with a man named Benger. We came to the bottom of the plantation, and 1 said we would look for a dead child if the living one was not found. We went to the closet, and to our horror saw a pool of blood on the floor. I said, " Oh, Benger, it is as I pre dicted." I then went to the house, and asked for a candle, and when I had got it and returned to Ben ger, he said, " Here is the dear little thing." He took out the child and a blanket, and took them into the house. The child's throat was cut to our horror and amazement then, as it is now; when it was lifted up its little head fell off almost. The body was taken into the kitchen. Miss Kent and Miss Elizabeth Kent came into the room. I can't describe their horror. I and the constable went round the premises, but could discern nothing. The servants and neighbours also came in and saw the child. That is all I know. Inspector Whicher sworn—l am an inspector of detectives. I have been engaged since Sunday last in investigating the circumstances connected with the murder of Francis Saville Kent, which took place on the night of Friday, the 29th June last, at the house of his father, situate at Road, in the county of Wilts. In company with Capt. Meredith, Mr. Superintendent Foley, and other members of the police force, I have made an examination of the premises, and I believe that the murder was com mitted by some inmate of the house. From many inquiries that I have made, and from information received, I sent for Constance Kent on Monday last to her bed-room, having previously examined her drawers and found a list of her linen which I now produce, in which were enumerated, among otherl things, three ni g ht d resses as belonging to her. said to her, "Is thi s a li s t o f your linen She re plied, " Yes." I said, " In whose writing is it P" She said, "It is my own writing." I said, "Here are three night dresses ; where are they !" She said, " I have two ; the other was lost at the wash the week after the murder." She then brought me the two which I now produce. I also saw a night dress and cap on her bed, and asked whose they were. sister's." The two sh e She said, They are my brought me had been worn. This afternoon I again proceeded to the house and sent for the prisoner am a polic e o ffi cer , into th© dining -room. I s a id, " I „:izi ... 4 ,. no ../,' • 0, i f , _ e ” • c,. , ...„4 .

I then accompanied her to h er bed room, where she put on her bonnet and mantle, and brought her to this place.. She made nd further remark to me. I now ask for a remand for a few days, and on the next occasion I believe I shall be able to show the ani MUS which existed between the prisoner and the deceased, and to search for the missing nightgown, which, if in ex istence, may possibly be found. To Wednesday or Thursday next I think will be ample time. After some further consultation the prisoner was remanded till Friday next, and was removed to Devizes Gaol in custody of Inspector Whither and Superintendent Woolfe. SUMMER ASSIZES. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—YORK, July 20. (Before Mr. Baron Martin and a Special Jury.) THE WAKEFIELD BRIBERY CASE. This morning on the case of REGINA V. J. B. CHARLESWORTH _ _ being called on, the Solicitor-General applied for the adjournment, producing an affidavit of the ex treme illness of a material witness, called Joseph Barr. In consequence of this, the trial of informa tion against J. B. Charlesworth, J. C. D. Charles worth, Crowther, and Jubb, were all adjourned. REGINA V. FIINCTICLIFFE. This was a charge of bribery against one of Mr. Leatham's agents. The Solicitor-General, Mr. Overend, Q.C., Mr. Monk, Q.C., and Mr. Cleasby, appeared for the Crown. Mr. Shaw appeared for the defendant, and stated that after the verdict given the night before, it was in vain for him to contest the fact that his client had been guilty of bribery, and under his direction the defendant had agreed to withdraw his plea and plead guilty. The learned Judge expressed his opinion that the learned counsel had exercised a 'vary wise discretion. REGINA Y. MARSLAND. This information charged the defendant with bribing a person named Catley, and offering a bribe to a person called Newsome, to induce them to vote for Leatham. The same counsel appeared in this as in the last case for the Crown. The prisoner defended himself. At the conclusion of evidence, The Jury retired to consider their verdict, and finally found the defendant not guilty on the first and third counts, but guilty on the second. REGINA V. NOBLE. This was another ex officio information filed by the Attorney-General against Godfrey Noble for having offered bribes to Mr. Spate and Mr. Inc , - ham, voters at Wakefield. The same counsel appeared for the Crown; and Mr. Digby Seymour defended the prisoner. John Spate and his wife, Mary Spate, and the wife of Ingham, gave evidence of bribery charged. The Jury found the prisoner guilty on the first count, and not guilty on the second. During the course of this case the learned judge stated that he had great doubts whether the second count, on which alone Marsland had just before been found guilty, was not bad on the face of it. He doubted, from a careful consideration, of the statute, whether a promise or a payment to a third party could be held to be a valuable consideration within the meaning of the act so as to found a charge of bribery. REGINA V BOYES. This was an ex officio information by the Attor ney-General against Daniel Boyes, for having been guilty of bribery at the last election for the •borough of Beverley. The same counsel appeared for the Crown in this as in the previous cases; Mr. E. James, Q.C., Mr. E. P. Price, and Mr. Thomas Jones, defended. At the last Beverley election the two seats va cant were contested by four gentlemen, Major Edwards, Mr. Walters, Mr. Walker, and Mr. Glover. The first two were elected. A petition was lodged against each. Major Edwards main tained his positi on , b u t M r . Walters lost his seat. Since then Mr. Walker has been elected without opposition. A Parliamentary commission sat, and this prosecution was the result. Mr. Boyes was the friend and supporter of Mr. Walters, and was charged with having bribed several persons. There was a house standing empty which belonged to Mr. Boyes ; there was an entrance into 'it from Toll Gavel. Mr. Boyes sat here in an inner room with pen, ink, and paper. Questions were here put to them about the election. They were then motioned on to go into the next and adjoining room, where another person was seated with a large quantity of money, principally half-sovereigns. Mr. Boyes called a number and that amount was then handed to the elector by the second person, who was witilin hearing. The recipients then passed on through a.courtyard into Walkergate, a street parallel to Toll Gavel. Several witnesses were examined to prove the case. Mr. James objected to the validity of the election on the ground that the notice of the election was not postponed in the usual place, as required by the statute. The Mayor of Beverley re-called and examined by the Solicitor-General—He saw the copy of the notice of the election posted on the Town-hall. The objection was then overruled. Mr. James then further objected that the regis ter of voters was never given to the returning officer, as required by the Register Act, sth and Gth Victoria, cap. 18, secs. 348-9. The Judge thought such an omission did not dis franchise the voters. Mr. James then took some more technical objec tions, which were overruled, and then went to the jury. He urged that where the evidence against the prisoner given by an accomplice was not cor roborated by any person other than accomplices the prisoner was entitled to an acquittal, on the well-known rule of law, that accomplices must be confirmed in order to render a conviction valid, and he contended that there was no confirmation here except by accomplices, and it was exceedingly im probable that Mr. Boyes should have so acted. The Solicitor-General replied. His Lordship summed up. The question for the jury was whether, under four of the counts, Daniel Boyes had given the money for the purposes alleged. His Lordship directed the jury as to the law relating to the corroboration of accomplices, and said it was a point for their consideration. He must say this was a very different case from the others which had been tried. This was a case of paying sums of £2 and 11 to persons acting as runners at elections, and he presumed that the House of Commons honestly intended to put down this practice, which was a very common one, of paying for supposed services an uniform sum, which, however, was very different from giving the large sum proved to have been given for votes in the Wakefield cases. The questions for them were, did they believe that Boyes got this money, and for the purpose of influencing and procuring votes ? They must take the whole matter into their con sideration. His Lordship then read over the evidence. The jury retired, and, after a long absence, re turned with a verdict of guilty on the count charg ing the giving of a bribe of two sovereigns to the witness Pougher. REGINA V. TAYLOR. This was another ex officio information, against Robert Taylor, for giving bribes to voters at the late Beverley election. The same counsel appeared as in the last case. The defendant in this case was the man in the passage who gave the money to the voters in the house in Toll Gavel, or the " Pump," as he was called. The first witness called was John Turner Bishop rick, who objected on cross-examination to state what his principles were. He said his principles were to get all the money he could, and vote as he liked best. Them was his principles. He had re ceived two guineas from Taylor on behalf of *Walters, and afterwards voted for Walker and Edwards. Ho was a runner for them, and liked them best. Two other witnesses were called, who were so drunk when placed in the witness-box, that his Lordship said it was impossible to go on, and hi s Lordship directed an Acquittal of the defendant, as there was no corroborative evidence of the first wit ness's statement. This was the last of these prosecutions. arranged with the INTERNATIONAL, STATISTICAL CONGRESS.--The h the a ve e alace and grounds (i n cluding a at 4 dejeuner p. M.) on Monday, the 23d inst.

By the last accounts from China, the Admiral had purchased for the Government a new and very fast paddle-wheel steamer, lately built at Whampoa, and fitted (it was supposed) far the opium trade. Her name had not been fixed, although it was thought she would be called the Tay. Lieut. G. D. Broad, who distinguished himself in the gunboat Haughty ot the Peiho attack, has been selected by Admiral Hope for the command of this clipper, which was to be employed as a despatch-boat in the forthcoming expedition to the north. With the exception of the second master and the engineer, the whole of the Haughty's crew were turned over to the new steamer. The St. George, 91 guns, Capt. the Hon. Francis Egerton, has arrived in Liverpool from Plymouth. The St. George will for the present occupy the same position as that recently held by the Majestic, Capt. Mends. The launch of the large line-of-battle screw steamer Atlas, 91 guns, will take place at Chatham Dockyard this afternoon, shortly after 2 o'clock, at which hour the tide will be at its height. The dockyard gates will be thrown open to , the public about an hour before the time fixed for the launch. The Racehorse, 4, screw gun vessel, has returned to Chatham from the Nore, after a trial of her en gines. During the run the speed of the vessel averaged 12 miles an hour. The sailing line of-battle ship Indus, 78, Capt. A. C. Keys, at Devonport, received her jury-masts and bowsprit on Thursday, and was warped yesterday from the sheer hulk to the dockyard, to expedite her fitting out. The rigging of the screw steam-frigate Emerald, 51, Capt. Arthur Cumming, in Keyham steamyard, is being refitted ; her lower masts were struck on Thursday. The screw steam-frigate Narcissus, 51, at Devon port, was hauled under the crane in Keyhain steam yard on Thursday, to receive some of her machinery. The iron paddlewheel steam-vessel Bloodhound, 3, Lieut.-Commander Bennett, from Woolwich, ar rived yesterday in Plymouth Sound, on the way to the West Coast of Africa. The construction of another gun despatch vessel is being proceeded with at Pembroke Dockyard. She is to be called the Nimble, and is being built in the same shed and from the same linesas the Espoir, launched some little time ago from No. 6 slip. The Nimble will be the third of these fast despatch vessels built at Pembroke, and the following will be her chief dimensions :—Length between perpendiculars, 145 ft. ; length of keel for tonnage, 127 ft. 10in. ; breadth extreme, 25ft. Sin. ; breadth for tonnage, 25ft. lin. ; breadth moulded, 24ft. bin. ; depth of hold, 13ft. She will be fitted with engines of 80- horse (nominal) power. On Thursday the Torch, 5 guns, screw steam gun-vessel, 80-horse power (Commander Frederick H. Smith), left Sheerness Harbour for Maplin Sands to test her speed at the measured mile, after having been fitted with guns and gear preparatory to going to sea. She attained a speed of nine knots an hour. She is to be fitted with one of Griffith's propellers and to be sent out for further trial. The following appointments have been made at the Admiralty :—F.

A War-office order was received on Tuesday by the authorities of the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich, announcing the intended visit of his Serene High ness the Prince of Lichtenstein on the following day, and requesting that every facility might be offered for his inspection of the establishment throughout. The visit was nevertheless 'deferred until yestezday, when the Prince, having travelled by the 12 o'clock train from London, arrived, unae companied,,at the Arsenal gate, and was escorted by Inspector King to the office of Col. Tulloh, su perintendent of the royal carriage department, where the inspection commenced. He was subse quently joined by Capt.

But perhaps it would be thought desirable that he should give the meeting some outline of the progress of a?fairs w hi c h h a d even tually led to this suspension, He would not, how ever, carry them farther' back than the Ist January, 1857. On that day he believed that this firm was perfectly solvent, for the debts which were now represented to be bad cons tit u ting such a heavy portion of the liabilities, though they now amounted to nearly XBOO,OOO, yet on the lst January, 1857, they were no more than £365,000. But since that period they had gradually gone on increasing till they reached th e i mmense sum h e had stated. Of course it would appear impossible that Messrs. Laurence and Mortimore could rea sonably expect to have any way of relieving them selves from the heavy losses that they had thus sustained. But he thought it right to mention that there were two sources to which they looked for replacement of these assets. The first was a large asset on the estate of Mr. Vere H. Smith, of Abergavenny. Mr. James Smith, who was a large debtor to the firm, the firm of Messrs. Smith, Patient, and Co., and Mr. Lauren ce , were a ll en titled to share in the residue of the estate of Mr. Vere Smith, which was expected to realise to then £lB,OOO each, and Mr. Laurence had reason to believe that when these assets were realised the _ ~ PUBLICATIONS.
