TH E DAROMET MASSACRE.—The following is an 'atract from a letter dated :—" Cape Coast Castle, Gold oast, September 16.—The atrocities at Dahomey have far I.ceeded the report of which you are aware. Thousands lave been sacrificed. Latterly came a steamer on that coast end shipped off 1,500 slaves. A man-of-war, being on the loot, saw the vessel, but suspected nothing of her design. We hear that English people and other Europeans have seen imprisoned there—most probably from refusing to wit less the human sacrifice, or take part in the rites of diabo ical superstition. Pray, let this be known in the proper laarter." We Ile not rival Germany in either the extent of kr forests or the docility of our pigs. We do not train our Wine to understand the horn or obey the whip ; but there kre forest ranges still in England whore acorns and beech ktast are plentiful, and where racy pork is bred, as good as Qtly in Westphalia or Ohio. I am unpoetical enough to klieve that the very best pork is that reared on meal and ilk as the staple food ; but I own to a feeling of gratifica -1 ton when my boys come home with a basketful of beech illAts for the pig, or the village children offer acorns for sale. h' Once a Rfk, Share!

Doe Mr. Joyce—H ave you any appointment under the seal of vai the company ? Witness--No ; but surely I can appear as agent. Mr. Joyce—Not unless you appear under the seal of the company.

DISORDERLY GENTLEMEN.—Mr. George Nicholson, 23, Alexander-square, merchant, and Mr. Frederick Perkins, Barnard's-inn, Holborn, were charged as follows : Sergeant Joy, 9 C, said that about four this morning, hearing a cry of " Police" near Newport-market, he went to see the cause, when he found the two defendants quarrelling with a female. He sent the female away one road and the defendants the other. After a few minutes the defendants began shouting, and on his telling them to desist, Perkins said they (the police) were "a lot of dressed up fellows;" that they (the defendants) were gen tlemen; that Nicholson belonged to the Royal Exchange, and that they would do as they liked ; and also that one of them was an officer, and would send to the Tower for a dozen. soldiers. They continued to create a disturbance, and he was compelled to take them into custody. On the way to Vine -street station Nicholson knocked off a constable's hat, and tried to make his escape, and it required three consta- Wes to take them into custody. Perkins further said he would give £2, £3, or even £5 if he would let him go, as . he had nay,. up Delete at a poli~~ peon. Nicholson said the officer made a little mistake in the names. Perkins said he had taken a glass of wine too much, and was very sorry if he had interfered with the police. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the defendants—Perkins 10s., and Nicholson ss. SINGULAR CHARGE OP ROBBERY.—WM. Leslie, a tailor, living in Church-court, Doctors'-commons, was charged with stealing a table of the value of 265, from the shop of Mr. Henry Bridges, furniture manufacturer, 406, Oxford-street. A constable said, from information he received, he fol lowed the prisoner to Crown-street, Soho, and there stopped him with the table on his shoulder. He asked him where he got it, and he said he purchased it upon the pavement. He then took him back to 406, Oxford -street. Mrs. Hannah Mary Bridges, wife of Mr. Bridges, fur niture dealer, of 406, Oxford-street, identified the table as her husband's property. On being spoken to by the con stable she missed the table, which she had seen safe twenty minutes before. The prisoner said he did not steal it, it was given to him to carry by his master Mr. Haberfield, a tailor in Sutton street. Haberfield on being sent for said, he bought the table of a man in Oxford-street, for 45., it was between Dean-street and Charles-street, near a shop where the the name of Bridges or Burgess was painted up. He gave it to the prisoner to carry home, and thought it very cheap. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the witness whether he usually bought tables in the street ? Haberfield said he only bought it to oblige the man. A witness was called, who said he was with Haberfield when he bought it, and the gentleman (the prisoner) was with them. Mr. Tyrwhitt ordered the table to be given up to Mr. Bridges, and the prisoner to be discharged. SIR .1011 N BOW.RING ON CHINA. At the meeting held at Liverpool on Wednesday evening, in connection with the inauguration of Brown Library and Museum, Sir John Bowring said,—ln China there are 400,000,000 of men who make no progress. They don't learn what concerns the business and duties of daily life. They are wholly occupied with the past, which was the age of ignor ance. They look not forward. They have not learned that great maxim of Bacon, that the present genera tion is the oldest of generations, and that the earliest generation is the youngest. A maxim of more prac tical wisdom never fell from the lips of philosophy. What I should desire to see in this countrris what I have seen in China—a universal passion, a universal desire for instruction. Certainly that does pervade the community, but the instructors and the instruction of a valuable character are wanting. A half dozen Lord Broughams—what wonders would they not work—(hear, hear, and applause)—with a language which 500,000,000 of men can read ! On that subject perhaps you will allow me a word or two, booattee if there be any _ thing which keeps society together in the present fearful disorganisation of that country—when internecine warm aro tearing, I may say, the foundations of society up by the very roots— when village is quarrelling with village, and man with man—when civil war is ravaging the whole country, destroying cities, breaking up wealth into pieces, and leaving everywhere around it ruin and devastation—the one single, solitary element of security and tranquility is the great competitive organisation. (Hear.) Schools are accessible to every kind of boy, and the children of the meanest parents often rise to the mightiest influence and occupy the highest positions. The man at this moment who stands at the head of litera ture—who bears the strange name of Chwang Tuen, the first man in the empire of China—is the son of a petty shopkeeper, a stationer who lives in an obscure street in that very city of Ningpo. There - is scarcely a viceroy in China who has not risen from the very lowest grades, for office is only attainable according t o th e l aws of China, by that competitive struggle through which they press towards distinction. (Hear, hear, and applause.) I have seen youths, not youths only, because there are men of 70, or 80, or 90 years of age—(laughter)—I have seen 40,000 or 50,000 per sons enter the great cities of China in order to enter upon that struggle : conceive what the struggle is. A province of China ordinarily consists of 20,000,000 of human beings; and the village schools are universally spread for the promotion of education. There is not a father, however mean, who does not struggle, if a lad of his family show any evidence of superior talent, every effort is made, every sacrifice undergone, in order to give that youth the means of education ; for should he succeed, such a blase of light is thrown over his family, over the village to which he belongs, that the whole district is delivered over to rejoicing. When this Tuen was nominated, no other person from the district had reached the distinction for 200 years; there was no man, however, elevated, who did not go to pay homage to the family aid pro genitors of the young man. They make their no bility run upwards, and never downvards— (laughter)—they ennoble the father and mother, the grandfathers and grandmothers, and ancestors, of the men who distinguish themselves, and when I discuss the matter with them, they say they have better reason for what they do, for the descendants of a very wise man might be a great fool, end the son of a good man might be a great rogue— (Laughter.) And it is a strange fact connected with Chinese history, that there is not a man, how ever poor, who does not know his forefathers for many generations; and this teaching is given to their children from the earliest period at which their intellect can develope themselves. What I want is this—that I may see in this country the same passion for education and the same passion for distinction which existed in China ; and in China I would desire to see the valuable elemen tary books of this country, and the advanced in struction which we are enabled to give them. (Hear, hear.) Perhaps that will be the result in both cases. In this country we are be g i nn i ng to recognise the very important truth that some thing is to be learnt even from very remote coun tries; and sorry I am that even in Chi na , un doubtedly the proudest of nations, and the nation least willing to receive instruction, the only improvement of European origin is the fire engine. (A laugh.) It was not long ago that the Emperor of China heard something of the English firelock, and he ordered some per cussion locks to be sent to Pekin ; but to this hour they have not reached the use of the flint, much less have they got the firelock. A very curious communication was received from the French Am bassador at St. Petersburg, tbat the Emperor of Russia had proposed to send the Emperor of China some 30 or 40 firelocks ; but he would not have them, " because the English barbarians will use them and have then the benefit of them upon his own subjects." SUDDEN DEATH FROM EXCITEMENT.—An alter cation took place in Warren's Hotel, at Kilkee, betveen Don Seluco Gutieraz, a native of Lima, South America, and others in the hotel, after dinner on Friday evening l as t. In the aff ra y th e Don received a kick, and in a few minutes, when in the act of paying his bill, he fell down and expired. An inquest was held. The medical man, who made a post mortem examination, said death resulted from excitement. A Mr. Lawler, who was one of the persons present during the quarrel, and who is a lieutenant in the Clare Militia,,ja in custody.--. Dublin Eventing _Nail. 'lir. After the disposal of the night charges at the Thames Police Court to-day, Mr. Wm. Brookholding Webb, the chief mate of the ship Brierly Hill, from Australia, was brought up on remand before Mr. Selfe, charged with the wilful murder of Wm. Brown, otherwise Lancaster, on the high seas, near the Island of Ascension, on the 6th day of August last. The ship arrived in the port of London on Sunday last, but no steps were taken to arrest the prisoner until Thurs day morning, whenlilaw was set in motion by the Home Office, owing to a communication having been received by the Board of Trade from the Shipping-office in Poplar, where the official log-book of the Brierly Hill was depo sited. Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, again appeared for the defence. Inspector Cox, of the Thames Police, who arrested the prisoner, handed the official log-book of the Briefly Hill to the magistrate. The witnesses Farrow and Kcarnan, who gave their evidence on Thursday with remarkable clearness, said the entry made in the log-book after the deceased was shot was not acorrect one, and that after seven of the crew had gone aft to request the captain to put in to the Island of Ascension for fresh water, he refused to do so. Brown then said if the captain did not he would have to be tied down till he did, but this was not accom panied by any violence or any attempt to seise the captain or do him any harm. The prisener, however, immediately went below, returned with a loaded pistol, which he cocked on deck, and after saying, " I'll blow the first man's brains out tkat lays a hand upon the captain," deliberately presented the pistol at the deceased and shot him dead. The prisoner then ob tained a second pistol from the hands of the carpenter, who was standing by, and said, "If you don't go forward, I'll shoot every one of you;" and the men did go forward. About three-quarters of an hour afterwards, the men were again mustered in the after-part of the ship. The prisOner said, " This is what comes of your mutiny;" and declared the pistol went off by accident. The two witnesses swore Prstol_did not go off by. acridDnf * -I— ' "."—• upon half-cock when it was brought on deck, and that it was deliberately presented and fired at the deceased. John Taylor, able seaman on board the BriGrly Hill, was called in confirmation of the evidence of Farrow and Kearnan. He said—l went aft with Brown and five other men to complain of the water. I heard and saw every thing. There was no agreement as to what we should do before we went aft. We certainly went 'to complain of the water. It was not good. Kearnan had some tea in a pannikin, and asked Captain Vincent, the master, to taste it. The captain said it was good. Then Brown came forward and said, " Will you go into the Island of Ascen sion to get fresh water." The captain said, " No." Brown said, "We will have you tied down," or words to that effect. I cannot exactly say. Brown was then five or six feet off. He did not advance towards the captain or attempt to touch him. With that the chief mate went down to his cabin and brought up a lafge horse pistol in his left hand, and cocked it with his right. The captain did not order him to go below for the pistol. The mate said, " The first man that lays his hands on the captain I will blow his brains out." The mato was then very close to Brown, and had the pistol presented towards him. Brown said, " Will you," but he did nothing at all, or attempt to do anything. The mate immediately shot the man, who fell dead at his feet. The pistol was such a one as that on the magistrates' desk. I cannot say if it cocked easily. After the deceased was shot the pri ironer handed the pistol down the companion to the car penter, took another, and said, "If you don't go forward I will shoot every man of you." The following official entry in the log-book, which the three witnesses already examined said was false, was read. It was in the handwriting of the captain : "I hereby declare that the seamen came aft in a body. Christopher Kearnan asked me if I was going to the Isle of Ascension. I told him no. Wm. Brown then spoke up and said, if I would not they would come aft to make me fast and take the ship there themselves, and that they would do it. The mate jumped below to fetch up a pistol, and after William Brown had made an attempt to lay hold of me, he (the mate) presented the pistol, which had been loaded over night, and said he would fire at the first man that at,- tempted to lay hold of the captain. While the mate made use of these words Brown cried out " Will you, will you ?" and put his hand behind him to draw his knife, but the words were not out of the mate's mouth before the pistol, which was at full cock, went off in the mate's hand and shot William Brown. The knife fell from his hand as he fell, when the rest of the crew dispersed forward. The bullet had entered the Luau's body, and he died M a few minutes. I was at the cabin door when the pistol went off, receiving pistols from the carpenter, whom I had previonar---‘mt sown Into the cabin for them, and the "'ate got between me and th e man , so I aia not see the pistol go off. The mate declares that ha did not intend to fire, but that in raising his hand towards the man he might have unconsciously touched the trigger, and I fully believe and declare upon oath that he did not intend to shoot the man. I declare the above entry to have been duly read over to the crew, and signed—William Vincent, master ; William Brookholding Webb, first officer; John Home, 2d officer, Isaac Wilson, carpenter. The witnesses, Farrow, Kearnan, and Taylor, all swore in the most positive manner, and with great distinctness, that the deceased did not take his knife out of the sheath, or attempt to do so; that his knife was not in his hand when he fell, and that he did not attempt to lay hold of the captain or the pistol, and that it was deliberately fired by the mate. The vessel afterwards put into Ascension Island, where fresh water was obtained. Mr. Pyer, the chief clerk, having completed the deposi_ tions, they were read over, and the prisoner, who said he would reserve his defence, was fully committed for trial for wilful murder.

GREAT SOUTHERN OF INDIA RAlLWAY.—Detailed accounts have been received of the state of the works up to the end of August. It appears that though the long dry weather and intense heat had rendered the execution of the earthwork difficult, the more important department of ma sonry has been proceeded with vigorously, and advantage had been taken of the unusually dry season to get in the foundation of the bridges and culverts, the more important of which were far advanced. There were 44 miles of per manent way materials in the country, all of which were expected to be laid by February next, and the whole line to Trichinopoly is estimated to be ready for opening in June, 1861. Four locomotive engines had arrived, and were to be immediately set to work at ballasting. The prices at which the work has been done are favourable, considering the greatly-increased rates paid for labour in India generally. The earthwork has cost about 10. per cubic yard (about one-sixth of the price in this country), and brickwork, 12s, On the completion of the line one •half of the net earnings over 5 per cent. will immediately become available in sup plement . of the dividend to the shareholders, and when the interest paid during construction has been repaid to the Secretary of State for India, the proprietors will receive the whole surplus. From the rapidity with which the works have been prosecuted, the amount of interest so to be paid off is comparatively trifling. Closing I Bueini Frice.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER—YESTBILDAY. Speculation on the Cambridgeshire underwent an im portant change. Weatherbound came with great force ; all prices were taken down to 10 to 1, land that so freely that no one seemed inclined to make an offer. Dulcibella receded to 12 to 1 (offered), but at the close 10 to 1 was taken. The afternoon was nearly taken up by the friends of Weatherbound, and the transactions done on the ether animals quoted were not of a very important character. CLOSING PRICES.

Louis Napoleon is a ruler who gives his personal atten tion to all that relates to the improvement of the ports of France, the internal means of communication, the drainage of land, the embankment of rivers and canals, the beautify ing of Paris and other towns, and the adoption of any weapon to increase the efficiency of his land and sea forces. Above all, he has paid particular attention to the build of gunboats. The iron plates with which his vessels of war are plated, it is said—and we believe with some degree of probability —are not so brittle as the iron employed for the same purpose in England. It was proved some years age, by experiments at Woolwich, that on a solid shot striking iron plates, the latter fly into showers of grape that would deal death on or between decks of an iron-built ship. It 1 was this discovery that led t o th e condemnation of iron frigates ; but if metal can be made so as to break without splintering on contact with cannon shot, then iron will be far superior to wood for the construction of ships of war. This, we hear, is what Louis Napoleon is aiming at. He is trying to produce iron-plated gunboats with metal capa ble of resisting light ordnance, and which does not fly ißte, small particles when struck. That he will succeed to v a great extent in this experiment we can easily understand, from the perfection arrived at in England in the manipula tion of iron. Our only surprise is that such efforts should not have originated on this side of the Channel, instead of the other. The French gunboats, fitted in pieces so as to put toge ther, and which were intended for operations up the rivers and on the lakes of Italy, were little hornets in their way; and as we may some day be engaged in warfare, and op portunities for the fighting of gunboats may present them -1 selves, it would be no loss if our Government were to take a French lesson in this respect, as our Admiralty is imper vious to teaching from English tutors. We possess, it must be conceded, an abundance of steam gun vessels, but whe ther we have gunboats is another question. Such gun ves sels as we have are splendid models of their sort, and they are valuable for some services; but, if they can be Xnocked to atoms or sunk by the unskilled firing of Tartars, as lately witnessed in China, it is clear that a well-manned four-gun battery would smash a fleet of them. What the nation wants, and what is urgently required, is a fleet of small gunboats, so constructed as to stand it good hammering. The Emperor of the French has had his eyes opened to this want, and Louis Napoleon was present to witness the experiments on a gunboat in the River Seine, at Paris. This boat was constructed on, the report sta t e s, a new principle for landing troops. The Emperor wit nessed the trial from the bridge at St. Cloud, and set apart a whole day for the purpose. This gunboat can carry 180 men, with ar ms an d baggage, a 4-pounder rifl e d A field-piece, its am mun iti on , wa ggon, aud horses. boat of this sort would be invaluable in penetrating, by river or creek, into an enemy's rear. The Indian revolt gave many with the chances of using such boats, but those whom we ent rust u tinies to se s er a t y oo su m eh uc n h av o i c ti cu sy p s i te ed ta of dm. with our routine in eofnoaffival de ci aldsties However, it is, o r O ught tegical operations. . to be, the interest of some one to look into these aff a i rs ; and, as there is evident remissness in high quarters, we th e attention of thepublic to this moment venture to draw ous point. On investigation of many new inventions, it will be found that though they have been b ro u ght out in France theY have been initiated here, and this is the case with thew: small iron gun boats. In 1846 M r. T. Moore tlesi boat, which, we are t o ld , he submitted to we d a tie late Oliver Lang, master builder of her Majesty's dockyard, Woolwich. Having gained this practical man's his plans, he, approval of he, in September, 1846, now 14 years ago, submitted the drawings to the Lords of the Admiralty. Mr. Moore, it appears, strove to accomplish three essential things :-1. To turn out a boat with light draught of water. 2. To model her so that shots would glance from her sides. 3. To make her a va il able for landing troops. He set to work, it wottld seem, somewhat in this manner. The hull he designed of an oval form, partaking somewhat of the Dutch galiot, so that she should not present any perpendi, eular sides as a target. He intended to line her sides with 2 k - inch iron. Instead of one screw at the stern, he intended to have one screw under the fore rim of each quarto:L., the blades in passing upwards to enter a kind of covered well, so as to be out of reach of cannon shot, and to be as tree as pos sible from fouling by gear. The screws were to be driven by direct:action from the cross shaft of the engine. On the upper deck the centre section was to be a fixture, and to carry a pivot gun. The fore and after part of the deck was to be doubled, so as to be taken up to be used as a gun raft, or for the disembarkation of troops or horses. The oval or convex sides of the ship gave a concave space in the inside, which he proposed to fill with air cases, for service with the raft, or to give a landing stage for marines or soldiers. The experience gained during the last 14 years may have pre sented fresh ideas to the inventor, but it seems singular that the French, in 1860, should be approaching the ideas pro pounded by this gentleman in 1846. The difference betweau the British and French Governments in these matters would seem to consist in action and non-action. The former allows a really useful scheme to be shelved, and when emergency arises, runs up a lot of wooden-built vessels, which rot or decay from the haste in which they are put together, and from unseasoned timber, discarding the advice given to try iron; whilst we see the Emperor of the French solicitous to possess a gunboat of the strongest material and the best form to do battle in shoal water or to land troops. Our Ad, miralty appear to be content to follow in the footsteps of th e French, to be mere imitators, and to set their faces against innovations even should they improve the efficiency of her Majesty'ssea defenees.—lfitchell' s Steam Shipp b ig howl.

To-day's market was again' very moderately supplied with English wheat coastwise and by land-carriage. The few fine samples on offer were disposed off without difficulty at fully Monday's prices ; other qualities, however, moved off slowly at late rates. The imports of foreign wheat are nearly 14,000 qrs., and the show of both red and white parcels was good. On the whole, a fair average business was transacted, partly for inland consumption, at extreme rates. Floating cargoes of grain were inactive, but net lower in price. Fine parcels of barley were is per qr. dearer than last week, with a steady demand. Other qualities were very firm in price. Malt, the show of which was only moderate, moved off steadily at full quotations. There was a good consumptive demand for oats at ex. Creme rates. Both beans and peas were quite as dear as on Monday. In the value of flour no change took place. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.
