D'O) 's gown, s 'had on when we were wrecked, and the steward's watch and white hat. A few days afterwards a ship hove in sight, and I did all I could to prevail upon the natives to take us to it, but they would not part with us. Seven days after two more ships, which were in company, came close to the shore. The natives then moved about in all directions, and took us and all the skulls and the Newfoundland dog into the hush, and the ships passed along. The little boy used to cry often, and the women used to tie him up to a tree ant? b( at him with a bamboo for making a noise, and when I intir fered to prevent their cruelty they used to shoot at mt. We were not long after this when the Murray Island In habitants came across the sands and bought me and Wil liam D'Oyley of the bordering natives for a few bunches of banana fruit ; and Sexton and George D'Oyley were taken away by those who sold us to another island, but where I could not learn, although I afterwards learned that they were both murdered. The natives who purchased me and Wm. D'Oyley took us to Murray Island, where we be came quite accustomed to them, and were treated much better than we had been treated before by any of the blacks. They were certainly less savage than any we bad seen be fore, and I became acquainted with their language. They had small gardens, in which they cultivated . yams and plan tains, and cocoa-nuts. When I got acquahated with their language, I heard one of them say that George D'Oyley and Sexton had been killed by the natives of Boidang Island. They never told me anything about it, and I only understood it from the conversation between each other. No. 14,0 A LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 31, 1837. PR ICE 5(1.

Williams, stationer, Regent-street 2 at 12 Nt and C. Alachell, potter:., Bermonosey W. Anderson, victualler, New-road, St. George's-in-the-Last 1 I COAL HOLE TAVERN STRAND.--This Old esta blished and highly respectable place of public amusement con tinuos to draw from all qua►ttrs. It is crowded every night by Noblemen and Gentlemen, who, we need hardly say , evince the highest gratification from the well conducted and unrivalled convivial meetings. The singing is, as it always has been, of the first order. The wines and spirits are of the choicest quality. We understand that most satisfactory accounts have been received from Alexandria, as to the voyage out there of the iron steam-yacht L'Eyypticit, constructed by Mr. J. Laird, of Birkenhead. The actual time occupied in making the passage from Liverpool was 18 days ; and when we consider that she was built principally with a view to river navigation, and bad contrary winds to contend with most of the voyage, it must be generally admitted that she, has made a most extraordinary passage. The reports from the captain and others all agree in representing her as an excellent sea boat, and that the compass acts as truly and steadily as it does on board any timber-built vessel—a de sideratum of vast importance.—Liverpool Courier. The work-house of the parish of St. George the Martyr, Southwark, is now undergoing extensive alterations and improvements. A great part of the old building has been pulled down, and on the site will be erected a new western compartment and wings, and other offices. There is to be full accommodation for 400 paupers. The new works are to be completed by the Ist of March, and the cost to the parish will be about 6,0001. In the meantime the paupers dependant on the establishment have been re moved to the other work-house at Lewisham, and have been farmed out to other places. The Duke of Modena has issued a decree to regulate the disposal of the property of the.twenty-nine political fugi tives lately condemned to death. One half of their property is to be given up to their respective families ; the other half to be applied to the support of the families of those fugitives who arc not possessed of private property. The visiting Magistrates of Springfield Gaol, Essex, met at the prison on Friday, when, after hearing the evi dence of Mr. Neale and the officers, with that of several pisoners,—Robert Coote, William Shuttlewood, William Randall, and Stephen Moss, the ringleaders in the recent attempted escape, were ordered to be privately and severely whipped. John Diver, Christopher Oliver, Thomas Burns, Samuel Hood, and Elisha Whiffen, to be privately whipped, the former receiving fifty lashes, the latter thirty-six lashes ; all to be kept in irons until removed to the hulks. Several others were ordered to be kept on bread and water for a week. WELSH RABBITS.--Much is, to be said in. favour of toasted cheese for supper. It is the cant to say, that a Welsh rabbit is heavy eating. I know this ; but have I really found it to be so in my own case ? Certainly not. I like it best in the genuine Welsh way, however ; that is, the toasted bread buttered on both sides profusely, then a layer of cold roast beef, with must trd and horse-radish, and then, on the top of all, the superstratum of Cheshire, tho roughly saturated, while in the process of toasting, with ewrw (Welsh ale), or, in its absence, genuine black pepper and shallot vinegar. I peril myself upon the assertion, that this is not a heavy supper for a man who has been busy all the day till dinner ba reading, writing, or riding. With this proviso, I recommend toasted cheese for supper. And I bet half-a-crown that Dr. Kitchiner coincides with me. — Dr. Maginn. There is a great deal of enjoyment to be derived from performing the different operations of gardening, inde pendently altogether or the health resulting from this kind of exercise. To labour for the sake of arriving at a result, and to be successful in attaining it, are, as cause and e ffect, attended by a certain degree of satisfaction to the mind, however simple or rude the labour may be, and however un important the result obtained. The measures taken by Mr. Brunel to resume the work ings in the tunnel have been highly successful. At a meet ing of the Directors of the Company, held yesterday, Mr. Brunel laid before the Court a detailed Report of the cir cumstances attending the late irruption of the water, and the steps he had taken to fill up the chasm in the bed of the River produced by the running of the soil in the vicinity of the aperture into the tunnel. Mr. Brunel reported that the works were again placed in safety—that the water had been drawn out to a great extent, it being now practicable to walk between fifty and sixty feet into the tunnel, and that, but for the floating timber which formed the platforms near the extremity of the workings, the shield could be approached in a boat, the water in the curve towards the middle of the tunnel only leaving at present any water in it. As far as an investiga tion of the work has yet been allowed, the whole appears not to have suffered the slightest injury by the late influx of the water. Every thing remains perfect, and the tunnel has only the appearance of having received a complete wash ing. Mr. Brunel reported to the Court of Directors his confidence that the whole of the water in the tunnel would shortly be pumped out—that the shield would be found un injured—and that, as soon as the loose soil which is near it has been cleared out the works would be again resumed. Last night Mr. Brunel attended at the Thames Tunnel, for the purpose of giving directions to undertake an inspec tion of the shield. For that purpose Mr. Page, accompanied - by some of the men, went in a boat ; but he was not able to reach the shield, in consequence of the many rafters floating upon the water, which impeded his progress. He was then hauled back by a rope which was attached to the boat. The progress of pumping out the water, however, by the steam engine proceeds most satisfactorily. Previous to the irrup tion many persons believed that the water drained through ; but the dryness of the walls under the present circumstances is a clear proof, in Mr. Brunel's opinion, that there can be no leakage of water through the arch or sides of the Tunnel, and that the dampness observed is similar to that which is found in all cellars. THE BALLOT MARCH. Every general election gives the question of the Ballot a quick step forward ; and, sooner or later, it will have ad vanced to that point, where petition ends and positive law begins. Some forty years ago, many of the most enlight ened advocates of Parliamentary Reform were sanguine in their expectations that but a little while and they would witness the practice of the Constitution made in some de gree to harmonize with the theory ; they had convinced themselves of the evil of the system, and seeing how pal pable those evils were, they concluded that the national mind must soon on this subject accord with their own. They erred only in time. Many circumstances tended for years to keep the publie eye from being fixed on the sub ject of Parliamentary Reform, and on the arrival of the moment when it began to take a steady view, the question was almost new to a large portion of the people ; hence, the Reform Bill was suffered to pass with all the Lords' faults upon its head. But the very passing of that mea sure showed that the people have only to will, and express that will through their Representatives, and the consequence is accomplishment. To ensure success, to push every obstruction out of the path, this will must be manifested not partially, as it will be in the new Parlia ment, but nearly wholly, as it was in the Parliament of 1832. So passed the Reform Bill, and so will pass the Ballot Bill, if not this year, or next year, or the year after, the law must and will come. The grinding oppression of the men, who cover the worst of all tyrannies—that of punishing a man for not making his action give the lie to his conscience—by the plea of doing as they like with their own, is fast attaining a growth in this country which will finally work its own ruin. The day will assuredly ar rive when conscience-oppression shall have wrought its own destruction ; like many other vices, it has an inherent ten dency to self-sacrifice ; the difference only consisting in the Ballot forcing destruction from extrinsic hands. Meanwhile the public mind must mature. Every man who has watched the operation of contested elections, needs no other evidence than that of his senses, to assure him that in a large majority of cases, if the vote is in accord ance with the elector's conscience, the circumstance is ac cidental, depending upon the chance of the voter's senti ments agreeing with those of his landlord or customer, or some other powerful friend : and by the same reasoning, if an elector's sentiments arc discordant with those of his landlord or customer, the vote follows the course of the said elector's interest, and becomes in regard to his conscience, a practical lie. This fact is seldom directly denied by the Tories themselves ; but they mostly meet it with the con science-oppressor's plea—" May I not do as I like with my own ?"—ffereford Times. The whole of the ancient wooden front of Sergeants' Inn has been removed, and the workmen are busily en gaged in erecting a handsome modern front to this very old inn. The old buildings projected considerably into Chan cery-lane ;of course this will lie avoided in the structure now raising. In the Prussian province of Oppeln an Ordinance has been published, directing that all persons seen in the streets in state of intoxication shall be arrested by the police, for the security of the drunkards themselves, as well as for that of the public. Before dismissed they are to give an exact account of the places where they have been drinking, that, in case the fault be with the landlord of any public-house, his conduct may be strictly investigated. A letter from Rome, under date of the 10th inst., given in the Allgenzeine Zeitung , states that the sanitary committee have declared that no case of cholera has yet oc curred in that city. The consecration of the Russian Greek cathedral of Warsaw, under the name of the Church of the Holy 'Trinity, was performed on the 30th July by the Bishop of Warsaw, in presence of the Governor and the other high public func tionaries. During the chaunting of the Te Deuni, 101 dis charges of artillery were heard from the ramparts of the citadel. Afterithe consecration the lAishop gave a splendid dejeuner in his residence, close to the cathedral, to the Prince of Warsaw and other persons of distinction residing in the Polish capital. Between One and two o'clock on Tuesday morning, as police constable William Sear!, T 111, was on duty near the stop bridge on the Paddington Canal, he was alarmed by a splash in the water. The policeman instantly ran to the spot, when, by the light of his lantern, he discovered a man struggling in the water. Without divesting himself of any of his clothing, Searl immediately jumped in to the rescue of the drowning individual, whom he had great diffi culty in rescuing from a watery grave. He then sprung his rattle, when, 'assistance arriving, the body was con veyed on the stretcher to the station-house of the 1' divi sion, on Paddington-green. The means advised by the Royal Humane Society were employed for some time, and persevered in until the man revived. He was recognised to be an excavator, named James Boswell, residing at No. 41, Little York-mews, York -street, Marylebone, and for the last few days, from domestic misfortunes, has been labouring under mental aberration. He was conveyed home by his friends, where he remains in a very precarious state. About four o'clock (within three hours of the above oc-- currence) as the same policeman was perambulating ano ther portion of his beat, close to the bridge over the Harrow-road, he observed' a female at some distance from him walking by the side of the canal. As he ap proached ,her she quickened her pace, and hurrying on to the bridge threw herself into the water before he could reach the spot to prevent her. Searl instantly jumped in after her, and after diving twice succeeded in catching hold of her clothes, and eventually he conveyed her on shore, when she was immediately conveyed to the station-house, and, as in the previous case, shortly revived, when the un fortunate female stated herself to be a Jewess, named Charlotta Isaacs, residing at No. 1, Union-street, Bishops gate, but refused to state her reasons for attempting self destruction. Information of her situation was.immediately forwarded to her, friends, .who, about half-past eight o'clock, arrived at Paddington, and conveyed her home in a hackney coach in a very weak state. The policeman, Seed, whose praiseworthy conduct has thus, within four hours, recovered two unfortunate individuals from a watery grave, has, we understand, not belonged to the force above a mouth. His superior officers have recommended him to the notice of the Commissioners ; and we doubt not the Royal Humane Society will also award him some testimonial of their ap proval of his conduct. A very beautiful marble bust, in a most complete state of preservation, was lately dug up, close to the Via Flaminia, near Rome. The circumstances of its having been found in the vicinity of Mascena's estates, and its strong resemblance to two medals which have been pre served, have left no doubt upon the minds of the Roman antiquaries that the bust in question is that of Caius Cil nius Maecenas, the Patron of Horace and Virgil, and - th° friend of Augustus. This valuable piece of ancient art is at present in the possession of Professor Marini, near Rome, by whom it was discovered, The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this case, in which the question to be decided was, whether a gift was absolute or upon trust. The testatrix in the cause, by her will, dated on the 25th of April, 1832, gave all her houses in Bryanston-square, her furniture, and effects, and all her estates and property to Sir Matthias Cox, his heirs and executors, for their own use and benefit for ever, trusting and confiding in his honour to comply with her wishes. In the will no mention whatever was made of what those wishes were ; but another paper, of which probate had been granted, but which was without date, enumerated cer tain legacies which the testatrix wished to he paid. At the hearing it was contended, on the behalf of the plaintiff, that the gift in the will was a gift upon trust, coupling it with the subsequent document ; but on the behalf of the defendant it was argued that the gift was absolute. His Lordship stated his opinion to be, that the gift was not a gift upon trust, but that it was a gift subject to a charge, and that Sir George Cox, the son of Sir Matthias, was en titled to the property absolutely, after the payment of the legacies. The effect of this judgment is to reverse that pronounced by the Master of the Rollt. SIMPSON, JUN., V. LORD IJOWDEN. The Loan CHANCELLOR also gave judgment in this case, which was argued before his Lordship some time since, upon appeal from the decision of the present Master of the Rolls, overruling a demurrer put in by the Noble defendant to the petitioner's bill. The petitioners in 1835 were the projectors of the York and North Midland Rail way, and in that character they applied to the Noble de fendant, through whose property part of the railway was to traverse for his assent to the measure, which his Lordship declined to give, and a petition, at his instance, was pre sented to the House of Commons against the Bill ; upon this an agreement was entered into between the petitioners and the Noble defendant, whereby Lord Howden assented to introduce in the next Session a Bill for deviating from the proposed, and adopting a new, line ; and the Company agreed within six months after the passing of the Act to pay the defendant 5,0001. towards compensation for the damage they might inflict, and that, if they should not succeed in obtain ing a deviation of the line, then they were to pay as much more to Lord Howden for additional compensation as cer tain referees should award. The petitioners, in conse quence of not being able to carry the Bill for the de viating line, adopted a line by which they only skirted, but did not touch, Lord Howden's property. Up this taking place the noble defendant applied to the plaintiffs for pay ment of the 5,0001., which they refused, upon which the defendant brought an action for the recovery of this sum. The plaintiffs then filed the present bill. To that bill the defendant put in a general demurrer, which the Master of the Rolls overruled upon the case being heard befoso him, and from that decision the present appeal was brought. His Lordship then went at considerable length into the autho rities, with reference to the interference of the Court in eases like the present, and concluded by stating his opinion to be, that the judgment of the Court below was errone ous, and that the demurrer ought to have been allowed. Demurrer allowed. WHATFORD V. MOORE. His LORDSHIP also gave judgment in this case, the ques tion in which was whether, under the marriage settlement of the grandfather and grandmother, a portion for the grand child had become vested, that child having died in the life time of his father? Upon the case coming before the Vice- Chancellor his Honour decided that the portion had not vested, and with that judgment his Lordship entirely agreed. Appeal dismissed. HUGHES V. WYNNE. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment in this case, which came before his Lordship upon petition, praying for interest upon certain balances in the hands of the respondent. His LORDSHIP dismissed the petition with costs. EAST V. TWYFORD. His LomosHlP also gave judgment on the only remaining point in this case, which was argued before his Lordship some time since, with respect to the construction of the extraordinary will of the late Sir Gilbert East. The only question to be decided was, whether two legacies of 3,0001. each, and also an annuity of 200/. a year each, were ac cording to the true construction of Sir Gilbert East's will, payable out of the life estate of Lady East, whom his Lordship had previously decided was the tenant for life of the late Sir Gilbert East's property. His Lordship was of opinion that they were, and ordered accordingly. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. Mr. Drew, of No. 21, Great Trinity-lane, and a gentle man of the name of Wellington, accompanied by John Ire land, a lad about nineteen years of age, appeared before Alderman Piano. _ _ _ Mr. Drew, who stated that he was brother-in-law to one of the passengers who were on board the Chas les Eaton when that vessel was wrecked in Torres Straits in August, 1834, said that John Ireland was the lad seen on Murray's Island among the savages when the ship Mangles touched at that place to water ; that William D'Oyley, a child, the son of Captain and Mrs. D'Oyley, who were murdered by the savages of the island of Boidang, was on Murray's Island at the same time ; and that Inland was convinced if two or three axes had been offered to the natives he and the, little boy would have been at once given up to the crew. Bad as was the case which had been recently laid before the Lord Mayor, the atrocities committed in the case of the unfortunate crew and passengers of the Charles Eaton were still more frightful, not one more than Ireland and young D'Oyley having been saved out of about twenty six. The poor lad had been two years along with this child amongst the savages, and had arrived not many. days ago from Sydney, having worked his passage home, and was now without a situation, and penniless. The following is the account given by Ireland of the oc currences after the vessel struck on the coral reef in Torres Straits : There were 26, of the crew, and the family of Capta D'Oyley, consistinged himself, his wife, and two childre George and William D'Oyley, and the servant maid, at a young gentleman from Ireland of the'name of Armstrong The passengers bad been on a party of pleasure. The coral reef on which we struck_ was called Detach Reef. We set about making a raft from the timbers of the wreck, and after great labour we constructed one in the course of seven days. When we got upon the raft and into. deep water, we found that it went too deep, and we returned to the wreck to remedy the fault. The captain and passengers remained on the raft, and the crew went to the wreck, and in the morning we missed the raft with the captain a nd the The inquest on Elizabeth Davies afforded an oppor passengers. The rope had been cut away in the course of tunity, of which, however, the coroner did not avail him the night, and the raft had drifted down with the tide. We self, to investigate the cause of the fire on board the Med then set too to make another raft, and we completed one tv. - ty steamer. There ought to be in England, as in Set in seven days more, on which we all got and drifted with rand, some public functionary empowered to make inquiry the tide, living on two wine glasses each of distilled salt into the circumstances of all public injuries.

I Lad lost all the power of - counting time soon after I got to Murray's Island, but we were there a very long time when the ship Mangles appeared in sight, and anchored off Murray's Island. The natives broke a large bough, and I waved it from a height at the ship, but no boat came off to us. I then went down along with some of the natives to the beach. This was in the afternoon, but no boat came ashore to us. Next morning the natives and I went over to the ship in several canoes, and we got alongside. I was in the third or fourth canoe from the vessel, and we dropped directly under her stern. A rope was thrown down from the ship to our canoe, and I took hold of it, and I would have got on board by it was unable, having sprained my wrist a day or two before. One of the crew handed down a quid of tobacco to me, and I said, " Will you lower down the boat, and I will get in." The captain and officers were at this time bartering with the natives. They lowered down the starboard cutter, and put their naked cutlasses and pistols into it ; and the natives, when they saw that, wero afraid that the crew were going to kill me and themselves too, and !et go the rope, and began to paddle towards shore. When I stood up in the canoe one of them took hold of me and put me down in the middle of it. It has been said that I shunned those who tried to get me away, and that I prefer living with the savages. Never was anything more false or ridiculous. The natives were afraid that violence was intended, and they therefore pad dled to shore. The boy was at this time along with the women in the bush, but I knew perfectly well that they would have as readily given us up to the captain of the Mangles as they did to the captain of the Isabella, by whom as e were liberated. If pains had been taken we might have been purchased for two or three axes, for the na tives had no objection at all. The ship's boat made three or four strokes after us, and then returned to the vessel. A few hours afterwards the boat came close to the beach, with, I believe, the captain on board, to shoot birds, and one of the natives tools the little boy on his shoulders and went towards the beach, and beckoned to the crew to come and take him, and the captain beckoned to the natives to approach the boat, but neither would approach the other closer. I was in the boat all this time, and I observed what was going on ; the boat soon afterwards returned to the vessel. Next morning the vessel sailed, and both of us re mained on the island till the Isabella, which was sent from Sydney for us, arrived. When we saw the vessel from the island we launched the canoes, but the natives were unwill ing to let us go with them to the vessel, as they were afraid I should be killed. I, however, persuaded them to let me go, and I promised to get them some tomahawks, and return to them. I was obliged to leave the boy on shore, of course. When I got to the vessel the captain asked me what ship I belonged to, and 1 Old him the Charles Eaton, and that all the crew and passengers except myself and a little boy, who was on the island, were murdered by the bordering natives. I then went on board, and I told the natives to fetch the boy, and next morning they brought him along with them to the ship. - The captain gave them, in exchange for us, some axes, beads, gowns, and fishing-hooks, and he supplied us with clothes. We then, after trading with the natives for six or seven days, set sail for Sydney, where I remained three or four mouths. William D'Oyley is still kept in dney by Mrs. Slade, a friend of the family ; and I was very sorry to be parted from the poor child, who was so much to be pitied. To describe what we have undergone is quite out of my power. It is proper to say that the captain of the Mangles, in the mayoralty of Alderman Copeland, brought forward the mate, who stated most distinctly that the white man who was amongst the savages showed the most determined reso tion not to leave the society of the blacks, and that, finding the young man's taste was so much against joining his own countrymen, the ship's boat gave up the pursuit.
