Of gee& conceal'd, and disappointments keen, Which young and gentle, the matured and sage, The lonely and the mated—all sustain. In kindly spirit, herein counsel's giv'n, How health, how hope, how happiness to gain.* 3. WHAT to EAT, DRINK, and AVOID; With Diet Tables for all Complaints. Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil eelings, a good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob servance of the Instructions herein container the feeble, the ner vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may aequire the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore Years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of inunea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters everyliving crea ture able to understanl ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible-discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all, by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the lik e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation 3f our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations. The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.

We have received intelligence from the Cap of Good Hope to the 19th of May, inclusive._ The latest acounts from the. frontier are much of the same character as nose which w have published for some time past. The Koffirs still pur sued. their daily depredations, with no little strcess. Further skirmishes had taken place, the result of which :was the loss of several lives, attended with vast destruction of property. Volunteers were enrolling themselves, and adetachment of the 43th Regiment, and a company of 50 moulted burghers, had been dispatched to Fort Beaufort; but, lot the colonists do what they will, they must still be unable to overcome and keep in check these remorseless hordes of Eaffirs. One or the Cape Town journalists says, and we relieve truly— " Certainly not less than seven thousand menare required in action to clear the colony, and to put down the Kaffirs, and to keep them down till they are wholly subcaissive and dis armed. The work will not be complete till the last horse and the last gun havil been wrested from them." • (Fron the Cape Frontier Times of May 19.) No movement of importance has been made by the Kaffirs or by the troops or burghers during the past week. The camp at Block Drift has been attacked by the enemy with success, that is they have captured all the cattle. Post Victoria has been abandoned and burnt, it is said, by the troops in garrison there, who have fallen back upon Botha's post. , Colonel RichardsO:), with a squadron of dragoons and two guns, left Graham's Town on Thursday, to proceed to Oliphant's Hoek, whither Colonel Somerset, with the force under his command, has also gone. Captain Alcock, with a burgher force, it is believed, is now also in that neighbour hood. ,Sir A. Stockenstrom arrived at the Mancazana post C-....,,,d•5y0-ogo, having scoured tho Kroo , o. hush nt the h ea d of 200 burghers, withotO• in with vany-- Kathrs. Burghers from the district of George are continually passing through Uitenhage on their way to the front, and the farriers of that village are said to be shoeing horses night and day. Several engagements have taken place between parties of colonists and Kaffirs, not, we are sorry to add, without loss of life to the former. In one of these engagements which took place on Friday afternoon in the neighbourhood of Farmerfield, Air. J. Murray, nephew of Mr. Gilfillan, the civil commissioner of Cradock, was unfortunately killed. The particulars, as reported by Mr. A.Peabe, who arrived in town from Farmerfield on Saturday, are as follow :—About two o'clock the Ficgoes that were herding the cattle of the sta tion, were attacked by Kaffirs, who took 500 head of cattle from them and wounded three—one dangerously. The Fin goes were.deceived by the appearance of the Kaffirs, many of whom were dressed in red jackets, iind it was not until the Kaffirs had nearly come up to them that they became aware of their danger. As soon as information of this attack reached Farmerfield, Mr. M'Cabe, accompanied by fifteen of the Cradock burghers and about thirty people belonging to the station, immediately galloped to the spot where the cattle had been captured, about a mile and a half from Far inerfleld. Here they dismounted, and descending into the bush, succeeded in recapturing all the cattle. The Kaffirs tired at their pursuers, and one of their balls struck Mr. Mur ray on the left temple. He and Mr. M‘Cabe were amongst the foremost. The Kaffir who shot Mr. Murray was only three yards off when he fired. The body was brought home by his companions, and a Fingoe who first attempted to carry it away was fired at. Only 14 Kaffirs were seen by the herds before the party from Farmerfield came to their as sistance. The enemy have been committing great devastation in Oliphant's Hoek, into which fertile district one main body of their force seems now to have penetrated, but in conse quence of all communication having been cut off from the different legers and villages of that district we are only now receiving news of what occurred two or three weeks ago. From Buchner's leger near the church, Oli phant's Hoek, we learn, that on the 2d instant a large body of Kaffirs attacked and carried off some of the cattle from the camp. A small mounted party immediately followed and overtook them on the next farm. Kuis Fontein, where, after a sharp conflict, in which one of Buchner's 'partrwas shot through the arm, they succeeded in recapturing the cattle. The houses at Kruis Fontein had all been burnt the night preceding. " A second attack on the cattle was made by a party of about 100 Kaffirs at three o'clock the same day, whilst the c a ttl e were graz i ng close to the camp, but they were again defeated. A party from the leger, chiefly coloured people, went out to meet them, and after some sharp work on both sides, the enemy retreated, leaving nine of their number, it is said, dead on the field. Four horses and four guns, with several assegais, were also captured. As the Kaffirs fled they threatened they would " pay them off at night," and they kept their word; for on the following night they made a most determined attack on the leger, firing a volley into the house. The men were fortu nately all at their posts ready to receive them, being con cealed behind an embankment outside the house, and re turned the fire immediately. After keeping up a heavy fire for a considerable time the Kaffirs were eventually repulsed without any casualties on the side of the besieged, and without the loss of any of their cattle. Mr. J. Scheeper's encampment (Oliphant's Hoek) has also been attacked, and 800 head of cattle and about 50 horses captured. A good many Kaffirs are said to have been killed in this attack. We have also intelligence through Mr. Wilmot, of Neli Year's River, that a body of farmers from his encampment had a skirmish with the enemy near Mr. Bezuidenhout's place on Thursday morning. There was a good deal of firing, and it is said a good deal of prowess exhibited on both sides, but the result was that the Kaflirs succeeded in driving off the whole of their booty. We regret to add that one of the C. M. R. was shot, it is supposed, not mortally, but he im mediately fell into the hands of th e K a ffi rs , by hom he was stabbed to death. One of Mr. Wilmot's sons had his horse shot, and several other horses were either killed or disabled: Mr. T. Watson was also slightly wounded. Front Stdbury Camp, 14th May, we learn that "the Kaflirs are becoming daily 'tronger and more daring in this neigh bourhood." - Another letter from Sidsnouth Park, dated Nth May,1846, states that '• the Kaffirs were successful last night about'ten o'clock, in an attack upon the Fingoes of Mr. Daniel, and carried off 350 head of cattle and•2oo bucks, the whole of their property. The Kaffirs were in great numbers. There was firing on 13)th sides, and every possible resistance made, but to ne purpose. About 100 it ingoe women and children are left destitute, as they were entirely dependent upon the milk of their cows for subsistence. " There is no doubt of the Bushman's River bush being swarming with Kaffirs, and nothing but a large force will expel them. A good deal of firing was heard on the afternoon of the 16th towards Swatze's camp. Colonel Somerset had passel Jager's drift, and was at the mouth of the Bushman's River on the 16th, and intended, it is understood, pitching his camp at a farm about a couple of miles from Quagga-nuts, called Depoort. Extract of a letter from the neighbourhood of Fort Beau fort, dated May 14, 1846. " Confidence is greatly restored in this part, from the ap pointment of Sir Andries Stockenstrom as the head of the Burgher forces. His measures are most energetic. He "re ceived his appointment on Sunday week and immediately re-took Mr. Ainslie's house on the Kowie, from the Kaffirs, and placed a strong party there.' On the following Wednes day he appoinied Mr. Mitford Bowker second in command, and on Thursday rode to the Tarka, accompanied by only two Hottentots. The Boers in that quarter immediately rallied around him. He dispatched Commandant Van Wyk with a very feeling address to the Boers beyond the colony, and after making various arrangements for the defence of that part of the country, returned with a considerable Burgher force and took the bush on the following Monday. He has already traversed a considerable part of the Kowie and Kromme forests, sleeping by day and working at night." In the course of a few days, additions to the force al ready here (Cape Town), are expected from Monte Video and 'Ceylon. COLESBERG, APRIL 29.—An express reached this on Sun day night from his Excellency the Governor, ordering the detachment of the 45th Regiment to proceed forthwith to Fort Beaufort, and to take every military precaution when approaching ;o the frontiers. A letter was also received by the civil commissioner, desiring that fifty mounted burghers should accompany this force. PORT ELIZABETIL—By private letters we learn that great excitement prevailed in Cape Town, on the arrival of the post (Sunday). A crowd remained round the Post-office the whole day; and, in order to allay the anxiety of the people, an Extra was published at seven o'clock that evening. On Monday morning about a thousand persons surrounded the Government offices to learn what was to be done. A crowd of Malays collected in 'Church-square, and about 600 enrolled themselves for the frontier. A volunteer corps has likewise been raised, and the muster is already very considerable. About five vessels have been chartered by Government for the conveyance of these troops; amongst the number is the Phoenix steamer.—Eastern Province iterald. BANQUET TO M. GUIZOT, LISIEUX, MONDAY.—The banquet took place upon the terrace of the public garden of this town. Nearly 600 guests were assembled, and many refused on account of the want of space. Upwards of 4,000 or 5,000 persons promenaded in the public garden, endeavouring to catch, as well as they could, the voices of the speakers. Beneath the tent Iwllayereptrhovehibeatneqeueltontgoopkrpeslaecrveethfeorthe spec tacle was really grand. At the dessert, M.

"The author of this singular and talented work is a legally quali fied medical man, who has evidently had considerable experience in the treatment of the various disorders arising from the follies and frailties of early Indiscretion. The engravings are an invaluable ad dition, by demonstrating the consequences of excesses, which must act as a salutary warning to youth and maturity, and by its perusal many questions may be satisfactorily replied to, that admit of no ap peal, even to the most confidential friend."—Bra.

LONDON James Tasker was charged at Maryleblne police court with the following act of brutality towards a pig : Mr. John Day, Addington-place, Camberwell, deposed that on the previous evening, as he was passing along Praed-street, Paddington, he saw the prisoner driving a number of pigs. One of them, apparently from fatigue, lay down in the road and seemed quite incapable of progressing any farther, when the prisoner beat it with a knotted stick upon the head and various parts of the body with all his might. The poor animal, notwithstanding the inhuman conduct pursued with the view of causing it rise, lay prostrate upon the ground, when the prisoner at length laid hold of its tail, and, lifting up the animal by main tierce, swore that he would break its leg if it did not go on. When the pig was lifted up blood was flowing freely from its tail, and upon its head and body were many wounds and bruises. It further appeared that a con siderable crowd collected in consequence of the brutality ex • ercised, and that the prisoner was ultimately given into cus tody. The prisoner denied having ill-treated the pig by beating it with the stick, but admitted having nicked it under the tail for the purpose of " reviving" it, as it did not seem inclined to go on. The magistrate considering it to be a very bad case, fined the prisoner in the full penalty of 40s. THE DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE.---We understand the Duke of Devonshire will proceed in about ten days to Con stantinople on a mission, we hear, from the Government to the Sultan. On leaving the Turkish capital the Duke goes to St. Petersburgh to visit the Emperor of Russia, and will terrain some weeks in that country. The Noble Duke will, be attended by a numerous retinue. It will be recollected that his Grace went to Russia as Ambassador Extraordinary on the occasion of the coronation of the Emperor. It is stated that the Noble Duke will be absent from England at in addition to 400 tons of that least six months. • GuArto.—A. vessel has just arrived in the West India Docks from Patagonia, with a cargo of guano ; had on board, article, . crystalised guauo. four tolls weight of 7 ~ i ._..N P UBLICATIONS. NEW WORK ON FRENCH WINES. This Day is published, in post Bvo.. with F ron ti s pi ece, Bs. 6d. cloth, B ORDEAUX, its Wines, and the Claret Country. By C. COCKS, B.L„ Translator of the Works of Mignet, Michelet, and Quinet. London : Longman, Brown, Green, and Longmans. JU LY 29, 1846. years ago, at precisely the same month and day, France rose with an admirable impulse to defend her invaded rights and honour.—(Loud applause). In those days the rights and honour of France were saved. But soon a great national danger appeared. On all sides arose passions, pre tensions, ideas, attempts; some patriotic, some selfish, some generous, others perverse and wicked. The country began to fear for her safety and honour—the present and the future seemed compromised. Once more there was an ap prehension of seeing her plunged into a revolutionary chaos. Happily at the same moment, by the side of this chaos threatening to return, the policy of order, of Conservatism, of legal liberty appeared. The Conservative party began. During sixteen years, through many obstacles, oscillations, experiments, it developed itself, took form and consistency, struggled and conquered.—( Bravos.) How—with what— and by what means? By our institutions, by publicity, by discussion, by the elections, by the liberty of the tribune, of the press, of votes; by a continual appeal to the intelli gence, to the reason, to the real wishes, to the well understood interest of the country. Always in the bosom of the country, in its serious thought, in its reflection, will that Conservatism come to renew its strength and vigour. The Crown, the Chambers, the electoral college. the National Guards, the tribunals, the citizens, all the great public powers, all the constitutional forces of our regime have maintained their place in this struggle— have shared in this victory. I do not hesitate to say that, without our free institutions, under any other form of government, under forms of govern ment more tranquil, more easy, more sure in appearance, but in reality less powerful and less efficacious, we would not have obtained this great and difficult result.—(Bravos.) If power had stood alone, left to itself—if it had not been con st mtly sustained, warmed, revived by the energetic concur rence of the public liberties, surely the revolutionary move ment excited in 1830 would have prevailed—the torrent would have burst its dykes, the country would have been led astray. Yes, we can confide in our institutions, for we owe them gratitude —they have been the strength of Conser vative policy, they have given it the victory.- (Bravoe.) Thus we ought to be, and we are a government of liberty—a liberal government. I insist upon these two words. France feels the necessity of being governed—she does not demand new revolutions nor considerable changes. No; she desires -rr 'government worthy of the name—a regular, firm go vernment, feeling its rights, its mission, respecting itself, making itself respected, determined to accom plish truly all its duties. France wants also a liberal government—that is, one which accepts frankly and fully the institutions and thel liberties that are the guarantee of our actual society and of its conquests. And such a government is ours. To accept fully the national liberties is not to be always talking of them, it is to practise them. Let us look at our liberties generally, as they are practised in the centre of the state. You read the debates of the Chambers; you receive every morning the journals arriving from Paris. Will any one say that public liberties are not there practised with vivacity by the opposition and respected by power? The same may be said of your municipal affairs. Are not your liberties in this respect real? Has not opposition here full scope? We are far from complaining of the opposition ; we combat their ideas ; we believe that their triumph would be fatal to the very liberties of which they avail themselves. But an opposition is, nevertheless, a constitutional utility. It is indispensable for the sake of warning and control, for the checking ofpower, and even to take its place, should it, in the opinion of the country, depart from the right course. The French Revolution in its early days fought violently for the conquest of equality, for equality at first badly comprehended, but now reduced to all that is just and social. Afterwards the empire fought for the conquest of national independenee and national glory. Under the Restoration we struggled for the conquest of consitutional liberties, with their maxims and guarantees. And now, since 1830, all these blessings—equality, constitu tional liberty, national independence —are our own ; we enjoy them, we practise them. We are no longer engaged in the pursuit of a doubtful conquest. France is decidedly a free country, and her government is a liberal government, and that implies that we are a country of progress. Some talk of imneobilityandofastationaryspirit. They who do so talk with • ont reflection. When liberty exists in a country by the side of order, progress is inevitable, and it is accomplished naturally, spentaneously, by the free development of individual liber ties, under the protection of public order. It is not, I admit, that fantastic sort of progress dreamed of here and there by some honest minds. No; it is such progress as the country desires ; it is . such progress as responds to its real wants—to its natural tendencies. Is it a question of national interests? At what period has progress been so rapid, not only through the efforts of citizens, and by individual industry, but with the permanent and energetic aid of the Government, and of all the great powers of the state? how, then, shall we speak of political progress? I will resume it all in one word —the most essential, the most pressing for us; it is the creation of a great constitutional government party. It is the presence of two great 'parties, one a government party, the other the party . of the opposition—an opposition party having their principles, their drapeaux, their leaders discussing every day one against the other the interests and the affairs of the country; opposing idea to idea, judgment to judgment. This is what all friends of our institutions demand with all their hearts. It is, in fact, the regular state of representative government; it is the actual want and future security of country. This pro gress is beginning to take effect amongst us. Important is it for the present—for the future more important still. We shall one day require all the strength, all the consistency, and all the authority ofthe Conservative party. We shall then congratulate ourselves that it has been formed, exercised, and trained beforehand, in times more composed than those when its wisdom and its energy will perhaps be put to the proof.—(Applause.) This is doubtless not the only political progress we have to make. 'We shall commence, and shall accomplish many others. We begin with the most essential and the most urgent. But far from rejecting any, the policy of Conservatism desires and accepts all. It will examine them—it will discuss them, with a sincere desire to adopt them. It wishes only, and it is its duty so to do, that a true and real progress should be attained, a progress in harmony with the essential principles and the general wants of society. Do not think, gentlemen, that material, and even political progress, will be the only one with which Conservative policy will occupy itself. It has the highest regard for the moral interests and the moral prosperity of society. It wishes to promote the moral progress of the value of man at least as much as that of their welfare and of their liberty. How could it be otherwise? How could it be possible that the policy of Conservatism could have any other object? What are the principles, the sentiments on which it is founded, and to which It labours to do honour? Respect for order, respect for the laws, for rights, for duties, and for reli gious belief. What greater moral influence can exist than such principles and such sentiments? And how is it pos sible that a policy which has impressed them on its standard, and has taken them as its rule of action, could be un mindful of the moral improvement of society? Sucb, gentlemen, under whatever view you may consider them, whether with regard to order or liberty,- material or mo• ral interests, in all which tends to the life and preserva tion of society—such are the effects of the policy of conser vatism, judged, not from its promises, but from its works. Do not, moreover,' think that with regard to cur foreign relations it will be less efficacious or less salutary. 1 once said, and I have been reproached with having done so, that I concerned myself more with the internal than with the foreign interests of the country. Gentlemen, it is now for six years that I have had the honour of directing the foreign affairs of the country, and I now repeat, with stronger conviction than I did six years ago, that I occupy myself more with interests at home than abroad Is not this rendering a striking homage to the country? What can be more honourable to a man than to say that his good internal organisation, his internal prosperity, his well -directed liberty, :his regular government—yes, gentlemen, when a country is thus at peace within itself—when it freely and regularly displays its force and its activity at home—be cer tain that it infallibly increases in grandeur abroad, in the esteem of its neighbours, and in the balance of the world.— ( Loud cheers.) Do you know what was the feeling through out Europe for many years after the revolution of July? They doubted the success of our• efforts to establish a free and regular government. They believed that we should again be launched into revolutionary oscillations; and along with this, they feared the return of warlike ambition—of the spirit of adventure and conquest. The people and Go vernments of Europe were distrustful, and put themselves on their guard against us. To these two prognostics we have given a flat denial. At the same time that we founded a free government, we restored order and maintained peace. Be assured in this we have done what is most important for the greatness, the influence, and the consideration of France throughout the world. The spectacle we now present to the world—the spectacle of a free people under a regular Government—of a constitutional Government founding and fertilising the prosperity and the security of a great people,— this spectacle is for our influence, our consideration, and our force in the world, the surest basis, and the most fertile source. Gentlemen, are you aware of what passed a few 'days ago at the environs of Paris ? The King visited the fortifications which have Just been completed. He was surrounded during the visit by the whole popula tion of the neighbourhood, though not expecting him. Workmen, country people, all showed their kindly sympathies, and accompanied him with their acclamations. The King of peace, the King who has maintained peace in France anti Europe, coming to visit the fortifications of Paris; this same King ) Who desired and founded peace, coming to see the atedulplishMent of this other great work, which he likewise desired, and which will be the infallible security of France in Europe.--(l)ravos.) It was this which spoke to the hearts of these poor workmen, of this simple population, Who Congratulated and applauded the King for what he had done for the safety of France and for the inte rest of peace. The King, on those ramparts, surrounded by his people; .appealed to say to Europe, as Leonidas said to Xerxes, "Come and take them ;" but this just pride would, from hip mouth, convey nothing hostile or threatening, for even that is a work of peace which Conservative policy has accomplished tinder the sceptre of the King, and in accord ance with his wishes. Gentlemen, in presence of such re sults, founded On such principles and obtained by such means, the Conservative policy may pfescilt itself with heat erect before its friends as well as before its enemies. I will not, however, Sae; eneihiee, fot we have no enemies in France,—(tiodd apPlatise.) Of the adversaries of this pone)+ it is not for me to speak. As to its friends, t Late at this time but one advice to give there; a solitary wish to submit to their eorisitieretidni T ryy hive all; I repeat; Wien- their place hi the struggle wlnlcd tro lidee sustained. They have all had their part in the suc cess. In a free emintly nd dne is Indifferent; no one is use less; (way diti2.en carries his stone to the edifice Which is being constructed, and all who have assisted in the work will still continue to watch and labour for it and with it. They have at this dale a sacred duty to perform. I speak no*, Vntlertien) as dfla di' : k•dd, as a faithful sefeant of that policy which you all wish to support. We owe an homage of respect and of gratitude to those three . great public powers, the Crown and the two Chambers, which. since 1830, have all been so faithful to their mission, to the King above all, who, in the exercise and In the limits of his constitutional rights, without ever hesitating to use them, without ever attempting to depart from them, has sustained with such constant and firm devotedness that salutary policy—to the Chamber of Peers, to that. chamber which never changes, which never ends, and which, from the permanent character of its posi tion, has so well comprehended how the policy of Conserva tism can sod does accord with the changing wants and wishes of the country—to the Chamber of Deputies, which has just finished its career, and which having endured since 1830, longer than any other assenmbly, having accomplished so many important and useful things, has, during its last ses sion, at the moment of appearing before the country, pro claimed and supported, more loudly and more firmly than ever, the Conservative policy; all its conviction was ateSulg and sincere. To those three great powers, gentlemen, let 116 igldierso all ofix homage and all our gratttudoe .-: , • 1 4.. r ~~ =~" may Heaven grant—whose superior support is always necessary to our imperfect wisdom—may Heaven grant that, in the solemn trial which is to be accomplished, those three great powers, who have so well and so salu tarily acted for the honour and the happiness of our dear country, may receive from it the justice which is their due! This wish, lam convinced, is that which animates your breasts. You have done me the honour to call on me to act as your representative. I have never at any time at tached more value to it, I have never felt more gratified at it than at this moment, when I constitute myself, in your name, towards those great powers of the state, as the inter preter of your respect and of your gratitude. (At the con• elusion of the Hon. Minister's speech the air resounded with loud and continued bursts of applause. ) SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. GOODWOOD RACES, TUESDAY.

Hind was re sumed this morning, before th e Depu "' Coroner for East Middlesex, :and the same jury, at the L ill ke of Richmond T TaAvierr.na.Qßuuerfeno'rdo-r,oaaddr,aDpaerls,toof Stratford, n was 11. '' - efi ' ret witness . called, and corroborated the statement he may le before th e magistrates at Ilford. He was on the Angel -1 ane Bridge, ;;', -') near the Stratford station, and saw the signal . lows red on the passenger-train passing it. • Edward Unwin, the youth employed at the stati:ln, and i:tio lowered the signal, also confirmed the testimony It, e gave at W . ,'" previous investigation. Geore Blatchayd, the chief guard of the paisenger tra.'n t was next ci:lled. iijs evidence was also the nine as List given befbre the tnagistr.ltes• Mr. George William Bn;wn said, he was formerly conk fleeted with Mr. Jackson, a e ,intractor to the Eastern Coun ties Railway Company. Clare was an engioe-driver in his employ, and, speaking from recol;ntion, was in the habit of driving their goods train engine for five or six months from Shoreditch to Stortford ; in fact, we to the time of Mr. Jack son disposing of his contract with the company. .He con sidered Clare to be a competent driver, and capable of repair ing his engine. At that period the signals ernployeki at Shoreditch, Mile-end, and the Cambridge Junction, were ;he same as the present one at Stratford, and Clare appeared .to understand them perfectly well. He never knew him I'o pass one. Joshua Wm. Coddington, the Deputy Government Inspector of railways, was then examined-1 am a captain of the L'oyal Engineers, and in compliance with directions from the railway Department of the Board of Trade, inspected the seen.'' of the recent accident on the Eastern Counties Railway, off the 20tfi and 21st instant. My first particular object was directed to t.he signal at Stratford, so as to as certain its efficiency for the protection of the public, and to try by experiments wile: ber it was possible for an engine driver, on perceiving it, to s: op a train between that point and the station. For this pari ose I obtained the identical engine and trucks, with the sum: load that comprised the train driven into the passenger one. There were five empty trucks, and two loaded with iron. r then made three ex periments with the train, and first pract2eded .as far as Il ford, when it was shifted on to the up raile r and I directed the engine-driver to go on to Stratford. Aft.'r going : about a mile and a half, and obtaining a speed of about. twenty-five miles an hour, I directed the driver, wilthout• previous warning, to stop the train, and noticed the point on which 1 gave the order. After the engine and train had stopped I measured the distance to the point I gave the order, and found it to be 445 yards. It was dont by the action of the break, and without the reversing of the engine. I then get ine it and again proceeded towards Strat foi d, and on arriving opposite to a man who had been placed there with a red flag in his band, I desired the engine driver again to stop. We were then going about thirty miles an hour, and the engine was .nopped in 468 yards tif break alone. I then turned the train to Ilford, and started fur Stratford again. I allowed the train to proceed at a very rapid rate, exceeding thirty miles an h e :tr. The last half mile was performed in fifry-eight seconds, and continued at that speed until I observed the Stratford signal: 1 then told the driver to shut off the steam, and the break was imme diately applied. Fifty yards furt her the engine was • reversed, and the train, with the engine, came to a stand-su l l under the bridge nearest the station. Juror—Did you measure the distance from the station Captain_codrington—l did not, but it was about 10 or 12 yards. I should observe that the rails were very wet, a heat V shower of rain had just fallen, and we were going at a very' rapid rate. Conorian—And what did the result of those experiments show ? baptain Coddington—The result of the experiments showed that it was quite possible for the engine and train to have been stopped, on the signal being seen, before it could reach the station. CORONER—Have you any observation to offer to the jury respecting the construction of the signal? Captain Coddington—l have examined the records for the last five years at the Board of Trade, aod cannot find any accident having occurred from a defect of the signal, or not being understood. The Colchester line is' the only one, I believe, that has adopted such a descri k ition of signal. ConoNEß—lt has been stated that the curve at this iferti... cular part of the line prevents the signal and station bt..lsg seen so distant as might be desired. Captain Coddington—lt certainly is an unfavourable place; but, notwithstanding the disadvantages of the curve. ' of the portion of the line alluded to, I am of opinion that the signal properly worked and attenled to is sufficient for the public security. The line is a moderate inclination from Brentwood ; but on approaching within 1814 chains of Stratford it rises at the ratio of 1 foot in 330. That rise would tend to facilitate the stopping of a train. By Mr. Duncan—lf the rails were dry, it is probable that the train could have been sooner stopped. I could not pos sibly say in what distance a train travelling at fifteen miles an hour could ; the slower they are going the sooner they are to be stopped. The break was a powerful one, and in good order; and I think that an ordinary party could have stopped the train on seeing the signal as well as I could. I inspected the signal. It was pulled up and down before me. and appeared to work well. Cross examined by Mr. I:Wm/sus—An engine -driver, on perceiving the signal, would have the same facilities in stopping as I bad. I made the experiment for the express purpose of seeing the signal. I Ivan on the look out for it.. It would certainly make a difference to an engine-drives un acquainted with the line, but they are particularly bound to attend to signals. It would be desirable for a driver on first going on the line to be accompanied by a person having a knowledge of it. It is usual to have breaks with goods trains, but I cannot say that it was imperative to have one on such a train as led to the occurrence—at least on such a train as I made the experiment. I noticed a station between. Ilford and Stratford, and think it very necessary that there should be signals at stations where passenger trains stop. It; depends upon the amount of work whether one man should. act as signal-man old point-man. I have seen horse-boxes in all parts of a train--in the front, middle, and rear. If a break had been applied at the last carriage, it would have much assisted in stopping thSt train. In answer to Mr. Hare, a 4Zentleman who appeared to watch the proceedings on behalf' of the relatives of the de ceased, Captain Co'ddington thought' it vsry desirable that persons should undergo a rigid examination to qualify these for engine-drivers. By the CORONER—I do not think a person Wind with one eye is necessarily incapacitated from working .s.s an engine driver. This closed Captain Coddington's examination, the' Coronet and jury thanking him for his prompt attention to th eir ap plication to the Board of Trade. Thomas Nicholson, the under•foreman in the locomot:ve department, one of the parties who were given into custody;, and discharged by the Ilford magistrates, was sworn—Was; on the Firefly engine attached to the truck train. It stopped at Ilford, on its way from Bomford, six or seven minutes. _Just as it came to a standstill ti:e Ipswich pas senger train proceeded. On re-starting and nearing Strat ford he did not see the signal until the engine •ivas under it, and on looking forward saw the passenger train stopping at the station. Clare instantly blew h i s whistle, And re versed the engine. The breaks were applied at the mime moment. By the CORONER—CouId not account for not seeing' the signal before they got under it. There was no larking Cu the engine. John Tomlinson, the smith, who rode on the engine front the Romford works, next deposed to the same facts as lie gave at the inquiry at Ilford. He saw the signal down at &rat ford when the engine came up to it. The whistle was sountia at the same time. Other evidence was then adduced, but the principal facts elicited have been already before our readers. It being now half-past ten o'clock, the jury determined on_ adjourning the inquiry until thin morning at ten o'clock, when the Coroner would immediately proceed to sum up the evidence, and the jury determine on their verdict. CONCLUSION OF THE INQUEST.—(THIS The jury re-assembled this morning, and the Coroner haves ing summed up the evidence, they returned a verdict of Manslaughter against W. Clare, the engine -driver, and ac quitting Quinlan. The verdict TM accompanied by sundry observations, which are to be put into a proper form by the Coroner for the jury to sign on Friday. These relate to the rules regulating the arrival and departure of the trains on the. Eastern Counties line. ETON AND WESTMI 'NSTER BOAT•RACE. t-race, between the Eton and ake place on Thursday next.
