A scullers' race, which, while it lasted, was of a very exciting nature, but which was unfortunately soon over, owing to unlooked-for circumstances, came off yesterday over a course which is rarely disturbed by rowing matches, viz., from near the Waterworks at Thames Ditton, to One Tree, at Ham, in the vicinity of Teddington Lock, with stream. The competitors were . George Collis, a landsman, of Hampton, and John Tagg, jun., a waterman and fisher man of East Mousley, both being known in their respective neighbourhoods as great scullers. The stake was £l5 aside: but although the amount of money depending upon the result was very small, great interest was created, and a large amount of money speculated, Tagg being the favou rite. All the preliminaries having been arranged, includ ing the appointment of William Kilfoyle as umpire for Tagg, Langshaw for Collis, and James Messenger, ex champion of the Thames, as referee, the men went to their stations and started in torrents of rain. They got away well together, and remained so for 200 yards, Tagg slightly leading, when Collis fouling a boat, Tagg went in at his leisure, an easy winner. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. AN UNWELCOME VISITOR TO A LICENSED VICTUAL LER.—Hannah Wilson, a middle-aged female, of violent disposition, was charged as follows : Mr. Richard Haylett, of the Admiral Duncan, 38, Old Compton-street, said that at two the previous afternoon the prisoner came to his house and asked to be served with drink, but seeing that she had at the time more than enough he refused to serve her. Upon this she became very vio lent, and on the waiter attempting to put her outside she bit him severely in the hand, broke some plates and a lamp globe, and when she was at length got outside deliberately smashed one of his windows. The prisoner said she was very sorry, but liquor was the cause. Mr. Beadon said if she had been charged before him with biting the man's hand, and it had been proved, he would have given her the longest term of imprisonment he could, as he should in all cases where the teeth were used. Ho would order her to pay the damage, and in default of doing so she would be imprisoned for a month. THIS DAYS MARKETS. (OLD COURT.) (Before the Lord Chief Baron and Mr. Justice Williams.) The trial of Sarah Jane Wiggins for the wilful murder of a child at Hackney, by tying it to the bed-post, has, upon the application of Mr. Poland, been postponed until next sessions. MURDER ON THE HIGH SEAS. Charles Annois, a foreign seaman, was placed at the bar on an indictment charging him with the murder of Philip Barker on the high seas. A second count charged him with wounding John Cumming with intent, &c. The prisoner pleaded not guilty to both indictments. Just as the trial was about to commence it was found that two important witnesses were absent, upon which the learned judges ordered the other cases to be proceeded with. STEALING A LETTER. A respectably-dressed young man, named Hughes, lately in the employ of the Post. office, was indicted for stealing a letter containing two half-sovereigns, the property of the Postmaster-General. The evidence against the prisoner was to the following effect .—He was a sorter, employed at the North-Western District, and on the 15th October, in consequence of certain suspicions, he was sent to sort some letters, amongst which one, misdirected, and containing money, had intentionally been placed. He took up the bag, and instead of taking the misdirected letter to the inspector, he was observed to place it up his sleeve, and then go to the water-closet, where he was seen by Bingham, the constable, to tear open the letter, take the two half-sovereigns from it, and after minutely examining them, swallowed them one after the other. The greater part of the letter he afterwards chewed and threw down the closet. The pieces were after wards recovered, and upon being dried and placed upon another sheet of paper, were produced in evidence against him. Tho jury found the prisoner guilty. The Lord Chief Baron sentenced him to four years' penal servitude. MURDER. The case of Charles Annois, for the murder of Phillip Barker, was then proceeded with. Mr. Sleigh and Mr. Poland prosecuted, and Mr. Metcalf defended the prisoner. Richard Faux said--1 was the 'second mate of the brig Margaret, of Hartlepool, and Phillip Barker was the master of the vessel. She sailed on the 9th of July with a cargo of coke, and arrived at Lisbon on the 28th. While we were there the cook was taken ill and sent to the hospital, and on the 10th the prisoner joined the ship in lieu of the sick man as cook and steward. We left Lisbon on the 11th of August, and the prisoner was the only foreigner en board. He is a native of Rio do Janeiro. Up to the 13th of August matters went on quietly, when a few words passed between the prisoner and the men for ward. There were angry words. The captain came out of his cabin and asked what was the matter, when the men told him that the prisoner refused to wash their dinner things, and that ho (prisoner) had called them bad names. The captain said he would not have such proceedings on board, neither would he allow the prisoner to be im posed upon. He told the crew that if they had any com plaint to make, they must come to him. He then told the prisoner that he must wash the dinner things up every day. Cumming was one of the men the prisoner quarrelled with. Everything went on quietly till Sunday, the 21st August. The captain walked the deck with me on that evening from 8 till half-past 9 o'clock, and then returned to his cabin, which was on deck on the starboard side. The chief mate's cabin was on the port-side opposite the captain's, and my cabin was on deck on the same side as the captain's. The prisoner slept underneath my cabin under my berth. The men slept in the fore. part of the ship in a house made on deck. After the captain retired I remained on deck till 12, when I went and reported the course of the vessel. He said it was all right, and that she was to keep the same course till the morning. I then went to my berth ; the pri soner I saw was sleeping in his. I was aroused about half past four to relieve Sharpe, who had been on the watch. When I awoke I saw the prisoner sitting on my box put ting on his clothes. I afterwards saw her on deck going towards the galley. Joseph Cumming was in Sharpe's watch. In about 10 minutes after I had been on deck, Sharpe turned, and I afterwards saw the prisoner go into the cabin. After he had been in the cabin about 10 minutes he came out and went forward on the starboard side, and turned round to see if 1 was watching him. When he saw mo looking after him he came aft and went into the galley. I still kept walking up and doww the deck, and in a short time the prisoner made his appearance on the port side, and finding I was still watching him ho returned again to the galley. I then went forward to talk to some of the men, and in a few minutes after I heard a scream. I jumped upon some spars at the port side, and saw the prisoner standing with a five barrel revolver in his hand. He was standing about three yards from the door of the place where the men slept. He had a knife in his mouth. Cumming was standing at the entrance door. The knife and revolver produced are the same. Cumming was covered with blood ; he said " The villain's murdering us." I then went to the state-room to call the captain. After calling twice and re ceiving no answer, I went in and discovered the captain's throat cut. The head was nearly severed from the body. I rushed up to call the chief, mate, but found his door shut. I called out " Mr. Sharpe" twice. He answered. I told him the captain had been !murdered. Sharpe said he was locked in, and I then burst the door open. I saw marks of blood near the keyhole. When the chief mate came on deck the prisoner was standing midship talking to the men. I and the chief mate went to the captain's cabin, and when we saw the prisoner coming we shut the door until we could find something to defend our lives with. I took a screw driver, and the mate a sword. We then went forward to secure the prisoner, who was at this time threatening to shoot any person who ap proached. When he saw us he ran into the cabin, and we shut the door. I watched the prisoner while there. I saw him break open the captain's drawers and two writing desks. The chief mate was looking through tie skylight at the top of the cabin watching the prisoner. Tie mate took the pistol and threw it at the prisoner, who pointed it and snapped it twice, but only the caps went off. The mate said, "Oh you' illain, it's not loaded." He then called to me to look out as the prisoner was coming towards the door. The prisoner then came out, and threw ap his arms with his back to the cabin. He said, "Me kill the captain—me kill no more people." The prisoner was then secured. He had a sash tied round his waist. I searched the sash and found another knife, some pistol balls, and percussion caps. We mustered the crew and vent into the captain's cabin, on searching which I found the blue frock (produced). It belonged to the prisoner. He had it on when I saw him at four o'clock on the morning of the murder. About half an hour after we had put prisoner in irons, I showed him the two knives, and I asked him which he killed the cap tain with, when he pointed to the big one. I asked him what he was going to do with the small one, ho said, "to stick people suppose they struck him." Both knives belong to the ship, they have spots upon them, end have beennewly sharpened on the grindstone. When I showed him the blue frock, and asked him how it became torn, he said, "When I go to cut Joe's (Cumming) throat, Joe tear him." They buried the captain on the tth, and sailed for Falmouth. The ship during the whole of the time I have been speaking of, was on the high seas. Cross-examined by Mr. Metcalfe—They had left Lisbon eleven days before the affair took place. They were going to North America. They went to Falmouth because it was the nearest English port. I don't know what was the cause of the quarrel between the prisoner and the crew. The captain was a kind man, he never behaved crossly to the prisoner. He did not hear the prisoner call out for the captain to come and assist him after he knew he was dead. He was placed in the long boat, and kept there two days. He was not at all excited when I first saw him. He appeared to be so while he was in the cabin, as he smashed up everything he could lay his hands on. I don't know the slightest cause for his conduct towards the captain. I never saw anything strange about the pri soner. He always gave proper answers, and attended to his duties. I cannot tell whether the prisoner had been out of his berth on the night of the murder before I saw him at four o'clock in the morning. By Mr. Poland—The revolver was not loaded, but it bad caps on. By the Judge—The pistol was kept hung up in the after cabin, which joined the captain's. A translater was here called and the whole of the evi dence was read over to him from the judge's notes. The Judge then asked whether the prisoner had any questions to put to the witness. The prisoner, in broken English said—Me don't know— me like the captain very much, me not kill him—mo like chief mate —me no break chronometer, me no break any thing. The court here adjourned for refreshment. On the judge returning to the bench Joseph Cumming was called, who said—l am a sea man. I was on board the Margaret when Captain ' Barker was killed. I know the prisoner. I had a few words with him, because he refused to wash the dinner things, but nothing else. On the morning of the murder ' I had turned in about five minutes after four, when the prisoner awoke me by touching me on the right side, and he said ho was looking for some coffee. I asked him if he had found it, but he made no answer, and I told him the boy Jack would tell him where it was. I asked him what time it was, and he said half-past seven, but it must have been about half-past four. I went to sleep again, and shortly after I was awoke by some person cutting my face with a carving knife. It was the prisoner. I jumped up and seized him, when ho made two stabs at me with the smaller knife, which he held in the other hand. I should think the struggle did not last over a minute, when the prisoner got away and ran on to the main deck. I rushed after him, calling out that the prisoner was trying to murder us. He turned round, and, pulling out a revolver, sa id—" Me kill the captain, me kill five more men—go below." The case was proceeding when we went to press. In the foreign exchanges, yesterday afternoon, Hamburg was slightly lower. A considerable rise took place in the Austrian rates. CORN EXCHANGE. Notwithstanding that only a limited supply of English wheat was on offer here to-day, the demand for all kinds was very inactive. Compared with Monday, however, no change took place in the quotations: Fine foreign wheats supportdd previous currencies ; but the inquiry for them was by no means active. Inferior parcels were almost nominal. There was a good consumptive inquiry for all kinds of barley, at very full prices. The malt trade was inactive, at previous quotations, We had a fair demand for oats—the supply of which was good, at very full prices. Beth beans and peas were dull, and lower to sell. The flour trade was steady. ARRIVALS TRTAINVEEK. Wheat. Barley Malt. Oats. Flour. English 730 ( 1,610 i 2,250 40 t 1,050 Irish . 3,880 Foreign .. 3,150 , 8,880 12,160 r 180 sky. bl. WHITECHAPEL.

ROBERT STEPHENSON A BOY TO THE LA ST. — Not unlike, or rather exceedingly like, his father in some respects, especially in the easy unimposing manner in •which he went about his life' s work, he was hardly to be accounted his father's inferior, except perhaps in the quality of heroic combativeness. Father and son, independently of each other and both in conjunction, lave left grand and benefi cent results to posterity, and both recal to us Monekton Milnes's men of old, who Went about their gravest tasks Like noble boys at play. This choice quality of unconscicus characters, a geniVnd boyishness, was the peculiarity of both Stephensons in a remarkable degree.

IRELAND. DUBLIN, TUESDAY MORNING. AID TO THE POPE. The war journals here, which derive their poli tico-religious inspiration from Archbishop Cullen, are seriously endeavouring to get up steam in favour of a fancy project for recruiting an Irish Contingent to aid the Pope's efforts to keep his heel upon the necks of his happy subjects. Leaders, letters, and suggestions exhorting the lieges to take arms in this new crusade against liberty are quite the staple of these papers, one of the most notorious of which (the Dundalk Democrat) thus pleads Irish bayonets and the Holy See : "Thousands upon thousands of our young men go into the English army, and prove faithful to their enemy; and it would be strange indeed if we could not muster 20,000 of them who would enlist under the banner of Pius IX., and prove the devoted defenders of their illustrious friend. With a brave and chivalrous army in Rome and the States of the Church, who would drive away the rabble of cut throats and emancipate the subjects of the Pope from their outrageous tyranny, peace would be restored to the mind of his Holiness and safety to his person ; and ho would be left in quiet and security to attend to the duties of his high and holy mission, in directing the affairs of the Church, whose children are scattered over the world. Money would also be required, and that would be forthcoming. The Catholics of Europe and America would easily contribute £lOO,OOO a-year to sustain the army of Rome. We should say Ireland would pay a tribute of £lO,OOO a-year ; England, £5,000 ; Franco, £20,000 ; Spain, £lO,OOO ; Portugal, £5,000 ; Austria, £20,000 ; Belgium, £5,000 ; Prussia and other continental States, £10,000; America, £10,000; Canada, £5,000; making a grand total of £lOO,OOO to maintain a true and faithful Irish army in the Eternal City, for the preserva tion of the Vicar of Christ from the ruffian hands of his infidel enemies. As to Ireland's portion of the tribute, £lO,OOO, it could be made up by 200,000 persons paying ls. each; or by 2,400,000 persons paying ld. each; or by 1,000 parishes paying £lO each. At all events, it would come very light if it were sustained by all the male Catholics in the country over ten years of ago. This would be the proper way to sympathise with his Holiness, menaced as ho is by the rabble of revolution ists and anarchists, who threaten to lay their sacrilegious hands on the patrimony of the Holy See. It is the way in which Pius IX. showed his heartfelt sympathy for Ireland in the day of her affliction, when one million of human beings were permitted to die in the midst of plenty. If the Emperor of the French heard that Catholic Ireland felt in dignant at his inexplicable conduct, we may be certain th it a great deal of good would be effected. Under all the cir cumstances, we think the time has come for Ireland to speak out—for an aggregate meeting to be held in Dublin —the Most Rev. Dr. Cullen occupying the chair—and for meetings throughout the provinces, to sympathise with his Holiness—to collect funds, and recruit an army for the de fence of his liberty and the stability of his throne." A SOLDIER 'SMOTHERED BY HIS STOCK.—A private of the 29th Regiment was found dead yesterday in one of the carriages of a train from Driffield to Weedon. His name was Francis Woods. He was tipsy when he got in at Weedon, and at Driffield obtained more drink. Whilo travelling he fell from his seat on the floor, and, being un able to riss, was suffocated by the pressure of his stock. BOARD OF TRADE RETURNS.

On the other hand, there is a eon siderable falling off in the export of wool, and a moderate decrease in linen yarn.

The usual weekly conference of the delegates of the several trades' societies was held last night at Shaftesbury-hall, Aldersgate, fer the collection of contributions in aid of the " lock-outs," and to encourage them to sustain the contest into which the master builders and themselves have entered in regard to the document. The chair was taken by Mr. Charles Murray, the delegate of the West end bootclosers. The following trades were also represented, namely, the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, the ,cabinet-makers, the coopers, the block coopers, the hearth-rug weavers, the pianoforte-makers, the typefounders, the boot and shoemakers, the eigarmakers, the tobacco spinners, the cart wheelwrights, the carvers and glide's, the wood carvers, the bookbinders, the hatters, the mat and mattingmakers, the boilermakers, the brick makers, &c. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, con gratulated the conference upon the importance of the meeting held the previous evening at St. Mar tin's Hall's, as it could not fail to make itself felt all over the kingdom,:and show both the masters and their fellow-tradesmen in the provinces that they were determined to continue firm in the as sertion of their independence, and not resume work until they could do so with the dignity of free men. At the last meeting of the conference they appointed a sub-committee to draw up an address to the trades in general. That com mittee had accomplished the task assigned to them, and he would now suggest that each trade should undertake the duty of distributing the address of the committee amongst its own members, as it would place the whole question fairly before them. They saw by the newspapers that prosecutions had been instituted against some of the men connected with the present movement, and it was therefore a matter of the greatest importance that the united trades should tae steps for their defence. Mr. Potter observed that the executive com mittee had little to announce in way of change as compared with their statement last week. The masters had that morning held a meeting, but, as it very soon broke up, the inference was that nothing was done at it beyond the adjournment. He regretted that it had been found necessary to reduce the dividend, but that would be only a tem porary inconvenience, for the provinces were lite rally responding to the appeal which had been made to them, and had that very day sent up from £l5O to £2OO, of which £5O was from Manchester alone. With that encouragement, and aided by their brother tradesmen, for whose liberal kindness they were most grateful, the members of the building trades would continue to fight the battle of labour against capital until they had conducted the con test to a successful issue. Mr. Noble, in answer to the inquiry of a dele gate, stated that 29 firms had now receded from the document ; one of them had that day done so. He alluded to the firm of Norris, in Marylebone-lane. The Delegate of the Hcarthrug Makers stated that his society had originally voted £2O, of which they paid £6 down and £2 per week for the last seven weeks, so that the money was all spent. They had, however, reconsidered the case of the " lock-outs," and voted them £3 per week for the next seven weeks. The Delegate of the Cabinetmakers stated that his society paid £5O down, and £2O a week for the last three weeks, and had now voted £3O a week for three weeks to come, as they wished to sustain the lock-outs" so long as they remained stanch in the cause of labour. The Chairman having explained under what cir cumstances the conference would accept of loans, the proceedings terminated in the usual manner. The subscriptions for the evening amounted to £l5O. CRIME IN FRANCE. Tho Military Tribunal was occupied on Saturday yg and the day b e f ore i n tr in a very pa i n f u l case. Adjutant Pi co li er and Sergeant-Major Rode, of the 2d Regiment of Lancers, in garrison at Provins, spent a great part of the afternoon of the 25th August in drinking and playing cards at a cafe in the town ; they afterwards dined together and took more drink ; they then went to the theatre ; and on leaving entered a pastrycook's shop, where they took some glasses of Madeira. They became noisily drunk, and at last went to a house of ill fame called La Ferme. They knocked loudly at the door, but from the lateness of the hour it was not opened : they then began beating at it with their swords, and shouted to the people inside to open, but the door remained closed. At length they got into a passion, and beat the door more furiously than ever. The keeper of the place, one Couvert, at last ordered his servant, a man named Honore, to admit them. But no sooner had this man opened the door than the- officer and the sergeant-major rushed on him with their swords drawn. In terror he fled into the court-yard, but they followed, pushed him about, and abused him. The man then ran into a corner, and Pico• Tier followed him sword in hand. At this moment Convert presented himself in the yard and Bode raised his sword to strike, but two other officers of the regiment, sub-lieutenants de Coetlogon and Destafle, and the bandmaster Pontet, who hap pened to be in the house and were attracted to the spot by the tumult, prevented him ; de Coetlogon crying out, " Do not hurt him, he is a good fellow !" Meanwhile Picolier with a violent blow with his sword on the head had laid Honore bathed in bloot at his feet. A woman named Eugenie, servant in the house, who had also been attracted to the syot, exclaimed, " Honore is murdered !" On that Rode, catching hold of the woman, threw her on the body, exclaiming, " There is a corpse, and you shall make a second one !" He knocked her down more than once, and would probably have seriously injured her, if the women of the house, who had rushed down stairs, had not dragged her away. He then took up Honore, and shaking him, said, " You are only pretending to be dead ! But you know me ; lam Rode, and am not to be deceived," and he let him fall heavily on the ground. Again he raised him, and, with abu sive language, called on him not to pretend death, and once more let him fall to the ground. At this moment the gendarmes who had been sent for arrived, and the two men were arrested. Honore was conveyed to the hospital in a pitiable plight, and ten days after he died. In consequence of these circumstances the adjutant and the ser geant-major were accused of having inflicted wounds which had caused death, without, how ever, intending to occasion it • and also of the secondary charges of violation oidomicile and noc turnal disturbance. After the facts had been stated, Picolier, having been interrogated, said that, having taken considerable quantities of brandy, absinthe, vermuth, bitters, and wine, he was so drunk he did not know what he had done, and was not aware, until told the next day, that he had inflicted a severe wound on a man; even now he declared he could not call to mind anything that had taken place. Rode, in answer to ques tions put to him, also said that he was intoxi cated, but though he admitted that he might have made a noise in the house, he denied that he had done what was statedin the indictment. He particularly denied that he had, as one of the wit nesses said, asserted in the preliminary examination, '" Let ui kill everybody in the house, and then burn it down !" Among the witnesses were bandmaster Ponthouse, Sub-lieutenants Destafle, and de Coet logon. and they gave their evidence with such The t the prisoners, president h w rebuked e them. n called on for his defence, stated that both of them felt the sincerest regret at what had occurred. Their excuse was certainly a deplorable one, since intoxication was not to be pardoned. Still for mcn of such admitted bravery as the prisoners, both having greatly distinguished themselves in. the Italian war, the supposition of any inten tion to basely kill an unarmed man could not for a moment be entertained. There was no feeling of anger or revenge in the case, and the wound which occasioned death was given by acci dent, and in the dark. Only one blow had been given, and that unfortunately fell on Honore's head. As to Rode, he could not in an y way be looked on as an accomplice, for everything had taken place unexpectedly, and through inattention, there being no malice in the case. The Court having deliberated, declared by a majority of four to three that neither prisoner had given blows with an intention to cause death ; next, by a unanimous decision, that Picolier had committed an involun tary homicide on the person of the man Honore, but that Rode was not an accomplice in the said act ; and lastly affirmed that doth were guilty of nocturnal disturbance. The sentence of the Court was that Picolier should be imprisoned for three L months, and Rode for six days. ME WEATHER.—Portsmouth and its neighbour hood were yesterday visited at 9 a.m. by a severe hail-storm of about an hour's duration, from the north-east. The sub urbs of the town to the north-east felt the greatest effects from the storm, the hail or ice falling in frozen irregular masses, instead of the ordinary shape, the ground being covered to the depth, in parts , of several inches. The baro meter at the time stood at 29.40 ; the thermometer out of doors at 40 deg. Fahrenheit.
