Jgei qu to a n, wer whether the man would have been living now or not, if he had not been flogged. He certainly would not allowed him to be flogged if he had considered him in an unlit state of health. Had no instructions from any glArter as to how he should act. He wished to state that - rg - tle• wls a most rinful thing to wit ness , an d he should • bove , pv if he bud never to attend another.

Colonel Whyte regretted that the order of the Coroner la I not been attended to.. At the request of the Coroner the medical gentlemen inspected the ladder. He also wished to kndw whether the jurymen had, from the exhibition on i the ladder, been able to form an opinion of the way in which he received the lashes? A juror remarked that Matthewson hal stated that the exhibition of the ladder by Critton did not corectly show its proper position when the man was punished. Elmsworth was then called, and his v Mr. WAKLEY here stated that he had F eadth th e e a l r en tic g l t e h s of f war, and could find nothing in them specifying the handle of the lash, the thongs n a t t h ta e c m h . ed ls to: tr th , e h m e , th o o r ng th h e t size of the knots which weret t ie that the officers of the regiment it right to state this, in order might, if they thought proper, produce some specific rules on the eubject. Dr. 'Warren said he knew of no specific instructions oa the subject. It was not necessary inth as e k ß io ri g tist r a . WAKLEY Satid he was not rra W Y S . rren what took place in our armies. Dr. Warren repeated that he knew of no instructions on - the subject. WAKLEY—NO instructions how you should strip and fasten him, and how you should inflict the punishment upon Itizn ? If the man was satisfied, he (Dr. Warren) was satis tad too. Dr. Warren said he was. Mr. WAKLEY inquired if Colonel Whyte had any instruc tions on the subject? Mr. Clarke said he had not. They had no information to offer with respect to the punishment. , Colonel Whyte said it was administered according to the ...lissom of war " in like cases," a term which concluded each article. • Mr. WAKLEY said the case they were investigating was of a peculiar nature, and was, therefore, one of great difficulty. It wed el be well, he thought, to have sonic person there who could state whether the " cats " used in the case of White were similar to those used in the Britis:t army. Mr. Clark said the wish should be gratified. Eleworth then went on to state that a regimental court ma• tial was appointed to be held because he swept a por tion of the yard without:orders. He appealed against a regi• mental court martial, and claimed a district court-martial, but t•:e Commander-in-chief stated, if he would forego his cla;m, a court-martial should be dispensed with. Was re commended at Ipswich for promotion by Colonel - Whyte. He was senteuced to receive five dozen bodies with a whip three yards I me '' doubled, on a table, on which he was h e ld d own by rtes. He was laid down on a table. He bad his over alls on, but nothing else. But he only re ce i ve d a d ozen stripes. This was not done by order of a court-martial, but by the order of a sergeant-major. I could not look up after that (Ideal the witness) and I deserted; but being deceived by my friends, I came back again. I wes disgusted, for I was ashamed to sea myself walking about. I was ill after I left the regiment. Did not give the man into custody, and bring him before a magistrate for an sesault. He was not aware that the same punishment had bent inflicted on any one before him, nor that it had bon applied to any one since. The witness explained that n f.tching meat from the " Cook of the Rump," he forgot 0 fetch eotne suet to make puddings; and as they had try go without, they said they would report him, when the sergeant-major said, '- Give him five dozen."—(Laughter.) Eeans, the farrier, said he learned to flog under the in structions of Adjutant 'related, on a sack, which was marked in the middle, at which weak he was directed to strike for practice Ile did not like to flog. Farrier Major Criteon of the regiment was then examined. —?logged White en the 4th of June. The sentence of the court-martial was read, and he was told by the adjutant to prepare for file punishment. %ought the whips from the veterinary surgeon, where he kept them locked up in a box He made them himself. Two, he thought, had dark handle*, and the others had light. Made them front the pattern of other sergeant-majors. No one bad been punished with the dark-handled " cats" for two years. There was a slight elferenee in them, which he attributed to the difficulty of getting similar card at differe n t pl aces. Th e t h ongs of the black-handled ones might be a little thicker, but not much ; so little that if the a refs were taken off a grain of difference • would not be found in them. . Mr. WAKLEY remarked that some of the cats had eight knots, some seven, one ;ix, and one nine. Every knot had a deuble knot. Adjutant Ireland would undertake to say that the knots were single on:t.te lash with which White was Cogged. Witness—HA no instructions whether he was to strike hen! or ligh.t. Cannot answer whether the man suffered or not; he did not appear to suff..:r mere than others. He made one reenerk, namely, "lower," when Evans struck hint on the Deick, because the cat got twisted. Had seen some men sufeet- more than bite. because he was a spare man. Both be anti Evans were on the best terms with the deceased. 'White was tied up like others. Was never told where to strike except by the farrier major, whom he succeeded. Weed swear that he had not flogged thirty in his lifetime; nail dogged about three during the last four years. It was a palpable falsehood to say that he rose on his toes when he struck. If he did not do his duty, he no doubt would be told of it. Ha did not strike with his full strength ; he twirled the cat in the air each time he struck; the time occupied in the punishment was less in the 7th Hussars than in other regiments—about twenty m;nutes. Had seen mei. receive half minute strikes by the roll of the drum, which he considere 3 inflicted much more severe punishment. The cats ware not stamped or issued by authority. Rey. Joseph Benson, D.D., chaplain to the 7th Hussars, eeid he saw the deceased on the day of his death. Was lie the !cubit of visiting the hospital, so that he saw him once a week. When he saw him on the day he died, he wile too fa' . gone to understand the purport of his obs - Tvations. He in quire-.l the cause of his illne6s, and was informed that he had been suffering from the pain in his side. Nothing was saie about iris having been flogged. He never spoke to him or any subject, or made any complaint. Service was performer: in the riding-school, and prayers were read in the hospital once a week. WAKLEY said, as nothing should be kept from the jury, he iseed to state that he questioned the deceased', berth •r en the eubjert of hi , state of tnind. In the letter he bat received trom him to-day, he stated that when he wee it irte en years of age, he Suffered from abberacion of intellect, and i hat for sortie months he was excessively weak in hi, mind, and tad e v i nce d at t i mes meet unfeeling conduct to the members of the family, and his mother, when she was dangerously ill. His brother wrote to him about her, but he never received any reply. His mother considered he was in sane, but she had, not heard to his sufferings. His father, during the last fe w years o f hi s ,ife was obliged to resign ar e official appointraent on account of the weak state of his mind. and a broth(); of his father was affected in his mind. He (the deceeeed) was violent and daneerou) when in liquor. Celete'el Whyte then, by pertuissi -1 of the Coroner, state, that. ''eetore he called Cooke from the ranks, as stated, he ha. he' r 1 from Matthewson, in the office the day before, that the eoner had asked him if he ha.l received any punishment fot a- y evidence he had given at the inquest. He begged him to dismiss from his mind any apprehension that he shoulo steer punish him or any other man for evidence given 'Defer the jury; neither would he refer to it in any way. He tok hint tie was a smart soldier, capable of anything, and that lie conducted himself well, he woull always be a friend to ; but if he behaved ill, he should punish him as he would any other man, and that his future position in the regiment depended upon his future conduct; and finding he:was under going puoishment) he ordered him to be liberated. He told him teat this Statement applied to all who had so given evi dence. (Matthewson was here called in, and at the request 01 Col. Whyte, the statement was read over to him). Matthew- Bon the statement was correct. On the following morn the apjutant informed him that there was great excite ment in the regiment in consequence of what he had stated to Matthewson, who had informed his comrades that he (Cot. Whyte) handed him a chair, and asked him to sit by the eide of tint ; that he told him he would make him a corporal , immediately, and that the adjutant knocked at the door, and that he (Col. Whyte) inqeired if he had any objection to admit him.---(Laughter.) The non-commissioned officers in he regiment felt themselves aggrieved at such a man beine prculeted, awl great excitement prevailed. He felt it would hot be well to speak to Cooke priyatela and lie tod( the opportunity of speaking to him in the ranks. as u;t impression was created in the regiment that he was tudeevouring to compromise the matter. . Mr. Wakley considered that the Colonel should not have speken to Cooke whilst the inquest was sitting. alatthewison repeated that Colonel Whyte stated in the e)ffica whilst they were alone, that he would make him a cureerel, and that he never told anv one about it. C9ltuel Whyte std, if the jury doubted hie statement that the; alight :teed tor Sergeant Wright, titnwhpeci Cook made the statement. Mr. Wakley considered that they could be thus traveling Oat of their cooree. Colanel Whyte said lie considered that everythm to his 1 - trojaaic..: was heard, and nothing to his advantage; Li; cha racter was involved in the matter. Mr. Wakley thought in justice to Colonel Whyte he slight be called. Sergeant Wright corroborated the statement of Colonel Whyte, and distinctly stated that he did not say he should tnalc7c him a corporal, and he heard the whole of the .con vereation. Maethewson strongly asserted that Wright was not present the whole of the time. He believed that Colonel Whyte had takeit advantage of his position, and brought Wright to give evidence against him. He was on oath, and he was quite as incapable of committing perjury as any man in the room. Wright said, on being pressed, he did not leave the room for more than two minute:. He might have gene to tee window to ea 1 the orderly. Mtwatewstai went on to say that he told the colonel, when he offered to promote him to the rank of col pot al, thet two etripee on arm would not compensate fir the strides on his bark. In fact, tie refused. Colette' Whyte said he was in a position to prove that the whole statement of Elsworth was untrae, and garbled from the beginning to the end.—(He here handed iu a list of his offences to the Coroner.) Private Senior contradicted the alleged statement of Cooke after leaving the Colonel. Quartermaster Burns, of the 7th Hussars, for the last five years, etelhed been in the army thirty-two yeas ,J and a half, but had tot held rank in any other regiment. In the In. Goan lie had seen 3CO lashes, and upwards inflicted by drummers. The evidence of Drs. Hale and Reid having been read and sigted, .fir. Day's evidence was proceeded with. At is conclusion, he stated that both himself and Dr. Wilson agreed in a taper, atter examining the body of the deceased, that the punieenent he received had nothing to do with the cause of the deceased's death. Dr. Wilson, however, en Montley, came down with a long report, quite opposed to the Utioa they had formed. his, D r , Wilson insui Mr. Day's opinion h ad nothirg to do with to cadhered. Alm Ilramaiv called the attention of Mr. Day to aportion of his evidence at the last inquiry, which act forth that the muecles of the back were disorganised. lii reply to questions from WAKLE Y, Mr. Day st a t ed that itilitanmatie n in the veins which i ntersected the skin of the back or arias might cause pleura. The evidence of Dr. Erasmus Wilson having been read over a-. I signed, 1 tic t 'onoetea; requested the medical gentlemen, with the ~t Dc. Warren, to withdraw. in e 11 aeren, in reply to the Coroner, repeated his former oeta.te •.• e ---id considered that th e man d i d not d i e from t h e • era of t h e fl gging : at was a difficult and a dangerous usual cause, cold ; flogging might have indirectly caused his death. Dr. Erasmus Wilson said—The cause of tho man's death was unquestionably the flogging, and its consequences upon his health. Death from flogging was no uncommon occur rence, and the disease which attended flogging generally corresponded with that which existed in the case of White. He held abstracts of opinions in his hands, in which his opinions were confirmed by the greatest men in the country—Sir H. Hardinge, and Drs. Marshall, Hamilton, &c. Painful injuries to the skin are likely to cause disease to the organs the stomach, the heart, and lungs, and the kidneys, so that the irritation of the skin in this case was liable to; cause such diseases. Such cases are constantly taking place in the hos pitals ; so that whether he looked at the primary or secondary causes, he saw the danger of death. Rat the pulpy softening of the muscles was another cause of producing disease to the internal organs, It frequently happened in the hospitals that persons affected with dangerous internal diseases were . desirous and able to perform some light work. No doubt some of the veins were injured by the flogging, and conveyed matter from the skin into the interior of the body. He did not entertain the slightest doubt as to the cause of the man', death. The evidence having been brought to a conclusion , Mr. WAKL EY s h or t ly a f terwards proceeded to address the jury. In the outset he begged them todismiss from their minds all they had heard, all that had been reported to them on the subject of the inquiry, and to arrive at a deliberate'de cision on the evidenckthey heard. Their attention had been diverted from the real object of the inquiry by matters foreign to it, but they must nevertheless do their best to dismiss from their minds all irrelevancy, and to come to a decision on the merits of the case. They had had to encounter great difficulties at the outset by the desire of the authorities at . the batracks to prevent the holding of an inquest. He did not say there was a deliberate attempt to suppress an inquiry into the cause of the deceased's death, but that there was an apparent attempt to prevent one being held, and he hoped this case would be a warning to others, who adopted so pernicious an example, that they would find the law too strong for them, and that justice was not to be perverted.' Having compli mented the Rev. Mr. Trimmer for the decisive and proper course he had adopted, and commented on the extraordinary and contradictory statements made to the Rev. Gentleman, to the registrar, and to the constable, who was sent to the barracks by hi m (th e miner), he. l went on to say that, nevertheless, the statement of Dr. Warren to the constable as to the cause of the deceased's death in no way differed from the statements be had made before them. He never should forget the expres sious on the faces of the jury when they first visited the body, when it was in a high state of decomposition, and found that a large piece of skin had been removed from the back. Reports very uncreditable to the officers of the regi nr,ut for humanity were plentifully spread, and some :rreatly exaggerated, not from any wilful motive, but en tirely owing to the irregularity on the part of the authoritie:, the barracks►. They found, however, on inquiry, that the :kin had been removed for the purposes of the cross examination by two stall doctors, so that a medical inquiry into the death of the man had been set on foot, but no de finite or at all satisfactory statement was made, except in the House of CommonT, twelve miles away. Suspicion was the ground of action in that court, and it had been neces sary up to that mom( nt to pursue their inquiry on suspi cion, and on suspicion alone. The body having again been examined by military surgeons, the jury thought ►t right to have the post mortem examination completed by Mr. Day ; but he having arrived at the opinion that a disease of the chest was the cause of the man's death, thought that a gen tleman from London, Mr. E. I\ra:ion should be selected to complete it. He did not hesitate to fix upon Mr. E. Wilson, whom he was bound to state was a gentleman of high re putation and of unimpeachable veracity. He was, in addi tion, a first-rate anatomist, and had written one of the best books extant on the " Diseases of the Skin." In saying this he did not detract in the slightest degree from the re• putation of the other medical gentlemen. He then referred to the law, and said he might state, without the slightest hesitation (and, he did not say whether it was a cruel or a proper punishment) in saying that the punishment was strictly legal, as it was authorised by Ac( ParlUment, which specified that no man was to receive more than 150 lashes. Whether the punishment was a low, vulgar, or brutal punishment, or whether it was a humane punishment—high and exalted, and moral and effectual in its object—they had not to in quire into, as these matters were foreign to their inquiry, but, whether his death was caused by . natural circumstances, or from violence received from the inflicton of the punishment, But if that punishment bad been improperly inflicted, or if one stroke more than the authorised num ber had been infl:cted, they be guilty of manslaughter, and even of the higher crime of murder, arel every one present would be liable to be so charged. The real question they bad to determine was, did White die from natural causes, or was his death caused from the effects Of the dogging which he received on the 15th of July? There coati be no more fallacious test than the examination of a man by a medical man, for the purpose of discovering. the state of his health, because diseases of the stomach, of the liver, and of the heart might exist, and yet not one of them, not even the most celebrated, might be aware of their existence. 'Chen the skin was so beautifully formed, and so exquisitely sensitive, that the prick of a pin in any part of it caused considerable pain ; but what disease might not be communi cated to the internal organs by the shock caused by the lash?' There were numbers of cases on record of diseases being communicated internally from the skin. The luau's skin might have been healed ; but the most dangerous dis ease might have been communicated within, and more slowly causing the death. He then referred to the medical evidence and considered, from the evidence, that inflamation existed 'at the time he was punished, in the pleura and lining membrane is the heart, and if he were to ask Dr. Hall the question, be was sure he would be of his opinion. (Dr. Hale said, from the appearance of the part, that it must have existed at the time White was punished). After referring to the evidence Of the medical men, he went on to say that if they considered White had died from the effects of the punishment, they must state so, but in law their verdict would fie what was called " misadventure," or excusable homi ide if from natural causes, from inflammation in tie pleura and lining membrane of the heart and left lung. ['he carelessness with which so horrible a punishment was inflicted, showed a disregard of human suffering which was utterly unpardonable, as they found five cats which dif fered in size and strength. They found the Colonel, and the Adjutant, and Surgeon, Dr. Warren, standing close to the man while suffering punishment. That the surgeon did not feel his pulse, or make any attempt, except looking at his back, to discern the nature of the sufferings within the agonised frame. The articles of war expressly stated that the punishment should. not affect the 6` life or limb." He hoped that they should hear no more of such a species of punishment. It was far from him to brand the unfortunate persons who were compelled to carry out the sentence, rathei :et it fall upon the abominable system itself, anti if it was continued, let its denunciation be left to the popular voice, which in time would, he sincerely hoped, work its abolition. He then dismissed them to consider their verdict at half-past eleven o'clock. The jury returned into court at a quarter to one o'clock, and delivered the following verdict : The jury say that Frederick John White died on the 1 It of July, 1846, from the mortal effects of a severe and cruel flogging which he received on the 15th of June, 1846, in the Cavalry Barracks at Heston ; that the said flogging was inflicted under a sentence passsed upon him by a District Court-martial, composed of officers of the said regiment, the 7th Hussars, and that the said court-martial w:is authorised, by law, to pass that sen tence upon him; that the flogging was so inflicted on the back and neck of the said Frederick John White; and that James Lowe Warren, the surgeon, and Colonel Whyte, the commanding officer of the said regiment, were present at the flogging, by which the death of White was caused; and in returning this verdict, the jury cannot refrain expressing their horror and disgust at the existence of any law among the statutes of this realm which permits the revolting punishment of flogging on the British soldier; and the jury implore every man in this kingdom to join hand and heart in praying the Legislature for the abolition of every law, order, or regulation, which permits this disgraceful punishment, which they consider is slur upon humanity, and upon the fair name of thi, country." IlAppiaitse greeted the conclusion of the verdict. 7,6'.14 After a pause, Mr. 11 ati.LEY said he heartily and candidly concurred in the verdict. He had felt it his duty to make some inquiries of the deceased's brother as to the state of his (the decased's) mind ; and the information he then received, and the later he had received that day, strengthened him in the opinion that the deceased was in an insane state of mind at the time he was punished. It was a fearful thing to consider that an insane man had been flogged to death. The worthy Coroner seemed much affected. The jury then separated at one o'clock, after as investiga tion of nearly 16 hours' duration. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATEERSALL'S—YEsra RDA T. The magnitude of the accountson the late Goodwood races, and the enormous sums lost by "The Ring," induced us to expect an unfavourable settling; we are, therefore, the more pleased to announce that it passed off without a murmur, and that although nearly 60,0001. was required to meet the claims of the winners; nearly the whole of it was forthcoming, ,And the few thousands allowed to stand over there is every reason to believe will be paid within a very short period.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 4. 1546. It is with sentiments of the deepest sorrow that we h , tve to record the death of Baboo DWARICANAUTH TAGORE. This truly illustrious man expired shortly after six o'clock on Saturday evening, at his resi dence, St. George's Hotel, Albemarle-street. He was in the fifty-second year of his age. His state of health had been for some time precarious, owing to some organic affection connected with the lungs or liver. We had fervently hoped that eminent medical skill would have helped him over his late serious illness, the fatal termination of which will be so generally deplored. DWARKANAUTH TAGORU was the second Brahmin of distinction who had visited this country with the laudable motive of obtaining. an accurate knowledge of the means by w hi c h th e bless ings of civilisation have been so extensively realised, not only here, b u t i n E urope at large, in order to render himself a fitting instrument to assist in the regeneration, political, social, and moral of the mil lions that crowd his native soil. Ms predecessor in the same noble career was Ita.mstouuN %iv, and it is matter of grievous lament that death likewise prevented his return to the East. Both were men of a high order of mind. DWARKANAIITH TAGORS was pre-eminently endowed. He was of the most elevated rank of nobility recognised in India, and was possessed of au immense fortune. The influence • of the heads of the Brahmins is known only to those€ who have resided . in the East. When we find then of such exalted position and ample means quitting the land of their birth, where . bigoted prejudices have taken a deeper root than in almost any other portion of the earth, and animated by an object the dictate of the most extended philanthrophy, the mind is filled with admiration. No surer means can be taken to wards fraternising the whole human race. Where civilisation is advanced in a country which has just had to feel the force of the conquering arm of an invader, its progress is always slow. The violent passions engendered by war are long in subsiding, and it is incidental to the love of patriotism to suffer de feat upon defeat before the stranger be permitted to exercise his usurped dominion in peace. But when exalted personages have voluntarily incurred sacri fices, and travelled far and wide to illuminate their minds, and then are enabled to return to their com patriots and enlighten them as to the vast power and happiness of other lands, and the means by which they are attainable—the mild influences of reason are most favourably brought • into operation, and the seeds of human improvement are no sooner sown and scattered, than the happiest indications of a promising harvest are freely presented. How gigantically was the power of Jtussia increased under the auspices of PETER the Great, and yet how much was that country indebted for its rapid development to the untiring energy with which her eccentric, but gifted monarch had pursued his researches during his early years in this and other kingdoms. DwaariA NAUTII TAGORE lived to effect much, though it was late in life when he first came amongst us. No doubt his correspondence with his countrymen of rank and afflaence will have the effect of inducing some of them to follow his brilliant example. At least such is our hope ; and to find it realised would prove some compensation for an otherwise irreparable loss. Extensively engaged in commerce when very young, and which he carried on with astonishing enterprise, DWARKANAUTII TAGORE became sensible of the incalculable benefits arising from a free intercourse, between different countries. In Calcutta, which owes so much to his master spi,rit, the intelligence of his death will be re ceived with the deepest contrition. To him they are indebted for a magnificent public building, the town-hall ; the munificence of his donations to every other institution, educational, charitable, and scientific, was never surpassel. If a commercial panic seized the city, he stood prominently forwar-1, and by virtue of his high character and princely fortune soon restored confidence among the mercantile bodies. He was a frequent guest at the royal table in this country. In his own, the Governor-General mostly resided a portion of the year at one of his palaces. He was an intimate friend of Lord BROUGHAM, and shortly before his death was gratified by two young men, whom he had main tained, at hiS own charge, At the University, having greatly distinguished themselves in the me dical school. He was beloved by all, both for his public and private virtues. His death will be gene rally mourned. It is our painful duty this day again to call the public attention to the Draconic severity, the fearful stringency of the naval code. JAMES SAYER, a young man in the prime of life, has just been sentenced to death, to be hanged by the neck - on board such one of her MAJESTY'S vessels, and at such time, as the Lords of the Admiralty shall direct; and the Presi dent of the Court informed the unfor tunate young man that he could offer no hope that the sentence of the Court would not he fully carried out, and exhorted to prepare himself to. meet his doom. what was the 'offence of which the wretched culpi had been guilty to call for and deserve the greater. punishment, the extreme penalty, known to our law —a punishment that is never inflicted except in cases of wilful, deliberate, and premeditated murder, and against which, even in such cases, many good men are daily uplifting their voices ? Surely it must have been of a serious character indeed, when no hope could be afforded—when no prospect of mitigation could be held out. The lives of his shipmates must have been seriously endangered by, or through the default of the prisoner, when his crime demanded so fearful an expiation—when the offended laws of his country, or, rather, we should say, of that branch of the service of his country to which he had devoted himself, demanded the sacrifice of his life, the infliction of a painful and ignominious death. Ile had actually assaulted two sergeants, his superior officers ! Start not, brother Englishmen ; express not your iscretlulity, your scepticism. It is un doubtedly true that, in the nineteenth century, in the year 1846, nay, within the very last week, a fellow-creature, a fellow-countryman, has been sentenced to suffer death, and is at this moment awaiting his fearful doom, for having in a moment of excitement lifted his hand against two sergeants. The circumstances were not of an aggravated charac ter, or such as demanded any extreme punishment ; there was nothing of premeditation, of intentional offence. The unhappy man had just returned to his vessel in a disorderly manner, having parted with some of his necessaries on shore; he was forthwith, and while his excitement continued, ordered to be put into irons, doubtless for the purpose of being punished with a flogging for his offence. It appears that he has twice recently been so punished, the marks of the cat not having been as yet oblite rated from his back, and, as may easily be supposed, his passion, his excitement, was increased, and in a moment of madness he attempted to resist the mandate, he struck the sergeant by whom it was about to he enforced, and afterwards, when forced into the fore cockpit, while in the act of resistance, struck another sergeant. It does not appear that either of the blows were violent, or that the persons struck were in the slightest degree injured, or even hurt. This was the head and front of his offending, and for this he is to be cut off from the face of the earth, to be changed in one moment from a living, a sentient being, full of health and strength, to a breathless corpse- Graciops GOD ! can such things be tolerated in a Christian country, in a civilized nation ? What fancied necessity, what pro cess of reasoning, can possibly justify tl,e atrocity? Can Englishmen be :silent under such cir cumstances ? Will not petitions be, poured . in both to the Executive and Legislature for a mitigation of punishment—a reprieve to the unfortunate man now under sentence, suffering daily death in horrid antici. pation—and also for a revision and radical reform in the articles of war, the code under which such in human barbarity is sanctioned and tolerated ? The subject of naval courts-martial was brought before the House on Friday evening by Mr. WILLIAMS, who has evinced an anxious desire for the etre.. lioration of the condition of our naval brethren. It could scarcely be supposed that his state ments would be so speedily corroborated. The naval court-martial is final in its nature; him rind there is no appeal from its sentence to any tribunal whatever; there is no power by law to dis allow its judgment. The sentence of a military court-martial must be submitted to the Commander- in -Chief, and approved of by him before it can be carried into execution ; but the contrary is the case in the navy : immediately on being pronounced it may be carried into execution ; any mistake or error is irremediable. We sincerely trust that our liberal Government will turn their earliest attention to the subject. They have already introduced many and valuable changes, have swept away abuses, and have evinced the strongest anxiety in every possible way to improve the laws and the mode of their administration, to ameliorate the con dition of those they are selected to rule over, to in. sure equal and impartial justice to all. We give them every credit for their good intentions, but their hands must be strengthened, they must be aided and supported in their exertions ; the public voice must be beard ; a tempe rate but firm, above all, a universal demand must be made for justice to our naval and military brethren. Every instance of the abuse of power, of the infliction of inequitable and disproportionate punishment, must be procluim9d, published, and com mented on. Our representatives must make themselves heard in Parliament, public meetings must be held, and petitionS adopted. There are many and formidable p re j u di ces to be encoun tered, b u t a good, a noble causE., zealously supp orted, must even tually triumph, .and be crowned w ith success. So 1014 as a necessity exists for au army v t ud , navy, . • 2 • ' very principle of juslce, of exped;ency, demands that we should offer every inducement to the best men to give their services, and to remove the causes that have hitherto made such persons unwilling to do so. The ex-King of Holland, LOUIS BONAPARTE (Count DE ST. Lxu), the father of Prince Louts NAPOLEON, died at Leghorn oa the 24th ult. of a fit of apoplexy. by which he had been 4ttacked the day before. It is stated positively in letters from Rome of the 20th ult., that the appointment of Cardinal Gum, as Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, has defini tively taken place, and that he is at the same time charged with the supreme direction of the Govern ment. The treaty of commerce between Holland and Belgium was signed at the Hague on the 29th July. Letters from Leipsic of the 26th announce that Prince JOHN, the brother of the King of SAXONY, has resigned the command of the Saxon National Guards. Madrid Journals of the 26th and 27th have been received ; their contonts are unimportant. The grand ball on the evening of the 25th, in honour of the fite-day of Queen CHRISTINA, went off with great eclat. MAIMID BoLSA, JULY 28.—The Three per Cent , . dosed a t 34 1 / 4 for cash; the Five per Cents. at 21%; the Debt wi! lout Interest at 6%. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. The Bulletin des Lois publishes a royal ordonnance, convoking the Chamber of Peers as a court to try HENRY, and nominates M. IhnEaT,'Procureur-Gene ral of the Cour Royale of Paris, to be Procureur- General of the Court of Peers, to be assisted by M. BRESSON, Avocat-General of the Cour Royale; the Keeper of the Archives of the Chamber of Peers to be registrar, assisted by his Deputy. Duke PASQUIER, the Chancellor, arrived in Paris on Thursday, and went to the Conciergerie to interrogate HENRY. The assassin discharged two pistols at once; they were small pocket pistols ; the distance at which he fired was so great that it is considered that he could not have intended to kill the limo, as it was physically impossible with such weapons, and at such a distance, to have done his MAJESTY any injury. Indeed HENRY distinctly disavows any such intention. " I merely wished," said he, " to open the road to the guillotine." He employed sixteen men in his manufactory, but his affairs were very much embarrassed, and he was on the eve of stopping payment. We doubt much whether the eclat of a trial before the Cham ber of Peers is not calculated to excite the regicidal monomania which at present appears to affect certain weak heads periodically. An ordinary trial before an ordinary tribunal, and a degrading punishment, such as exposure and the galleys, would be more likely to check it than the Chamber of Peers and the guillotine. On this subject we find the following very sensible observations in the Presse "The attempt made on the King's life on Wednesday is the act of a madman; the author of it escapes from public indignation by contempt. This wild undertaking can only be explained by the reason which he appears to have him self given —that he was tired of life, and, being determined to end his days, he preferred a tragical mid striking denoue ment to an obscure suicide. This explanation is another proof that with wretches of this species it is perhaps dan gerous to surround with forms of two solemn a nature the trial which ends in cutting them away from the bosom of so ciety. The desire of playing a part is sometimes so acute for some depraved natures that diey will accept the most odious and infamous one. A dissipated fellow, worn down with debauchery and shame, reduced to terminate at the bottom of the Seine a life useless to all, and a burden to himself, may allow himself to be led away by the abominable cele brity that is too generally attributed to the assassins who fire on the King. Perhaps it would be better that a speedy and vulgar punishment, deprived of all preliminary prepa ration, should take' from them the destestable satisfaction which they make the object of their ambition. It is in that way that things pass in England and Germany, and the re currence of such frightful attempts is there much less fre quent than amongst us. But as the Court of Peers is already directed to judge the matter, we shall not urge any farther reflections, which could not now prevent the trial from going regularly on. Only on what concerns ourselves we shall avoid directing attention to a culprit who only deserves to meet with universal disgust. We shall merely publish such details as may tend to specify the nature attie attempt, without adding anything to the wretched renown of the assassin." It appears that on Wednesday, shortly after the attempt of lIENuy, three young men were arrested in the garden of the Tuileries, who were uttering seditious cries. The Gazette des Tribunanx of Sa turday gives the following account of the trans action:— "At a little distance from the spot where Henry was standing three voting men exhibited strong marks of im patience at the lii g s not coming out on the balcony, that the concert might begin. They appeared to have drank more wine than usual at dinner, and their conversation be came in a short time exceedingly insulting to the King and Royal Family. The persons who stood near them gradually drew back to avoid a quarrel which they seemed not to be unwilling, -to engage in. It was only afterwards, when tho rumour was spread about that the King had been fired at, that the persons who had heard the language of the three young men were struck with the gravity of the cir cumstance. On returning to the place 'where they had left them, they found them still uttering abusive language against the King. but ignorant, as they afterwards declared, of what had taken place. The young men were then arrested : one, nineteen years of age, is a shopkeeper's clerk ; a second, of the same age, is a writer in an avoue's office; and the third, aged twenty, is similarly employed. When taken before the Commissary of Police of the quarter of the Tuileries, they did not deny the language attributed to them, but ascribed it to having taken too much wine at dinner. They denied hay ing any ill intentions against the King or his family, and when asked if they had not been put forward by som e poli tical party, one of them, in order to show that no motive of personal interest had prompted them to act as they had done; produced a ticket of the Mont-de-Piete for a coat which had been pledged to furnish the funds for the dinner. They were sent to the Prefecture of Police and placed at the disposal of the law-officers of the Crown. A fourth individual, also ac cused of uttering seditious cries, an architect by profession : and about nineteen years of age, was also arrested." The same journal contains the following on the subject of the false reports constantly propagated at the Bourse for stock jobbing purposes : For some time post, some very serious things have been going on at the Bourse, and we are astonished that they have nut yet attracted the attention of the authorities. Nearly every day the prices of the public securities, and particu larly those of railroad shares, are, alternately, by means of false news, raised or lowered according to the views of the speculators who have recourse to these culpable manoeuvres. This, it appears, is done without any person being aware that it is an offence punishable with fine and imprisonment. A few days ago, for instance, one of the journals in its Mock Exchange article, spoke, as of a very simple affair, of a piece of false news which caused a fall of 15 to .20 francs, and stated this momentary fall had permitted those who, in the language of the place, are -called vendeurs a, clicowert, to realise their .profits. There is at the Bourse a commissary of police whose duty it is to discover and denounce the authors of these manceuvi es. Is it Possible that he can be ignorant of what everybody else knows? It is said that he has or ganised a very active surveillance against the stealers of handkerchiefs and snuff-boxes. This is very good, but thieves of this kind are not the most dangerous, uor are they, perhaps, the most culpable." The KING, QUEEN, and Royal Family arrived at Eu on Thursday night. They were received every where on the route with the most enthusiastic ex pressions of loyalty and devotion. Accounts have been received from Algiers to the 25th. All was tranquil at that date, although the province of Tit tery and the whole of the Medeah division was suffer ing from want of corn. The Alehbar publishes a letter from Tlemcen of the 15th ult., which says— "Three hundred and sixty feet of fine olive plantations were burnt down, but the cause of the fire had not been dis covered. The harvest was nearly all got in, and is much less abundant than in the preceding years, which is to be attributed to the scarcity of rain this season. The heat is in tense—at two o'clock on the 15th it was 52 degrees, 2 degrees greater than in Senegal." The elections commenced on Saturday. The return of a large majority of supporters of the Ministry was considered as certain.

The accounts received froinihe country this morning repre sent that the storm of Saturday afternoon, in almost all parts of the country, within forty or fifty miles, was very severe. and that the damage to property has been great indeed—nay, unprecedented. The crops have suffered in most places very considerably, and, in some fields, the wheat has been laid as flat as though a roller had passed over it. The Corn Market was very fully attended this morning, and prices of wheat were firm. About 500 quarters of itewt, wheat were on show, and mostly were sold at the full market value. The advices from the manufacturing districts received to day state that an improvement has been imparted to the markets fcr Manchester goonls by the last news from the United States, the anticipation being that modifications in the Tariff Bill favourable to this country will be made. " Bift (states the circuler of Messrs. M'Sair and Co.) con-- sidering all circumstances, prices have been generally well sustained. In goods the decline has been partial and trifling In yarns it has been greater, hut confined chiefly,to_ some numbers of water-twist, and. counts and qualities of mule adapted for India." ny some of the recent private accounts obtained from Cal, cstta, we are advised thus:— "Morey is so scarce that from 20 to 25 per cent. interest was charged for discounting first-rate papers, and even at that rate little money was to he had, as the banks and rich natives declined parting with their czmli from a general want of confidence." There are not any late colonial arrivals announced in the City this morning. In the Consol Market a slight tendency to decline has been shown this mornin , 4 - . CoMiolsl4 the Account opened at 96, but are now at 96 1 / 8 . For Transfer to-morrow the price is dull at 95%. Exchequer-bills are at Bs. premium only; India Bonds at 225. premium; and the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents at 98. Very little business is in . progress. In the Foreign Funds there has bee;, a very good sprinkling of business this Morning. A slight improvem en t ha s t a k en place in the Brazilian Five per Cents., which now fectch 90, and the New Bonds 8814 ; Portuguese Four per Cen ts. continue very steady at 45 1 / 4. Spanish Consols have rallied to 26 1 / 2 ; but the Thre, per Cents. are flat'at 3614. The Dutch Two and- a-Half - per Cents. were firm at 59% ; and -the Four per Cents. at 91%. The deasand for the lines of established Railways are in creasing, as well as for the snip of selected new projects. To diy prices are generally on the rise. BRITISH FUNDS, ONE CLOSIN ...
