BURNABY, Esq ) At an early hour the court was crowded, so mush so that several attorneys and other gentlemen for whom accommodation could not be found were provided with sea t s on th e b eac h . At twelve o'clock the cause which had given rise to the excitement was called on. It was Watkinson v. Millns, a jury ease, the claim being 501. for an assault. Mr. Toynbee appeared for plaintiff, and Mr. H. Thompson, of Stamford, conducted the defendant's case . The plaintiff is the publisher of an obscure and libellous print, and the defendant is a respectable druggist at Spalding. The following were the jury : Messrs. Henry Upton, Wm. Elderkin, Wm. Stubley, Woodthorp, and John Dowse. The plaintiff said, on the 25th of November I went with Mr. Hewitt into the smoking room at the White Hart Hotel. Hewitt was not sober at the time, and as he " chaffed" th© meeting Captain Draper proposed that he should be expelled. I seconded the proposi tion, when the defendant immediately pounced upon me, and forcibly ejected me from the room. I in his was not intoxicated. I bad no order from the landlord to l eave th e room . Mr. Gray made a speech monosyllable style. Great violence was used in ejecti ng me ; the stitches of my coat were torn, my room. Cross Suc k' was somewhat sprained, but the chief damage I complain of is the insult of being turned out of a pub licthe room named r . amined— Th ere was a_ person in myself, but I do him a swindler. !lags.

I did not Scriptures when they said, " The devil used the ” Richard Parker , T Served his purpose, so did I. " Richard T. Draper, Mat. Thorp, and R. Methervile, gave evidence in support of the plaintiff's case. Thompson, for defendant, wasexplained the law of n the case, and remarked that this ne th which made the County Court a disadvantage rather to the public. Most people in thecourt wou l dhai a n s benefit have evidence, to n gai n observed the plainti ff 's manner in givin g and would rightly conclude it was an attem pt notoriety. Looking at the man and his position_ n o on e could believe he had sustained damage eve n ' to the amount of half a farthing. The defendant depo sed —l am a ch emist at Spald ing, and remember t he ni g ht of the 25th of November. I was at the White Har t inn : p laintiff al so was there. Mr. Briggs came in the room, and before he c ou ld hang u p his hat Watkinson called him a swindler. There was a person named Gentle there, who was also insulted, and who warned Watkinson that if be spoke to him again he would b l ack his eyes. Plaintiff allud e d to the Deity, and said he used the Scriptures to serve his purposes : he said ,he Was quoting some author. Watkinson's conduct was so offensive that I sent for the landlord of the inn to turn him out. Mr. Gray accordingly requested plaintiff to leave the room, and,Hewitt also; he said if they did not he would have them turned out. I moved that the sense of the meeting should be taken whether they should be turned out or not : nearly every one in the room was for Watkinson and Hewitt being turned out : whilst I was proposing whetherhe should be turned out by physical or moral force, plain tiff said, " Where's the man who dare turn me out ?”1 upon which I ejected him. Mr. B r i g gs and Mr. Critchen corroborated Mr. Minns, f . Mr. R. Gray, landlord of the White Hart, said, I was sent for upon three different occasions on the evening when the fracas took place. I went up to Hewitt, and having opened the door, I said to him, "you are a low blackguardly fellow, and unfit for this room." My observations were addressed to both Wat kinson and Hewitt. I gave Mr. Minns or any party authority to turn out Watkinson or Hewett, for they did me a serious injury. Many other witnesses were examined. His HoNoua summed up, and suggested to the jury before they retired, that as the law bad been broken, probably they might soon agree in the amount of damages if each juryman would put down in figures the amount he thought plaintiff entitled to: they might add the amounts together, and then divide by five. The jury retired, and the Court adjourned for one hour. Verdict for plaintiff—Thirty shillings.— Stamford Mercury. PIRACY AND SLAUGHTER IN THE INDIAN ARChIP.ELAGO. We have repeatedly drawn the attention of the authorities and our readers to the proceedings of the hordes of pirates which infest the Indian Archipelago. It is now our melancholy duty to record the death of two gentlemen and a portion of their native crew by a most outrageous attack made on their vessel by some Lanun and Suloo pirates in Malluda Bay. The following particulars were obtained from a gentle. man who formed one of the expedition who made dili gent inquiries on the spot as to the tragedy : " The Hon. Company's steamer Pluto, on her way from Labuan to the N.E. coast of Borneo, touched at Malluda Bay, at which place intelligence was received of the capture by pirates of the schooner Dolphin, and the niwder of Mr. Burns (supercargo) and Robertson (captain), as also of a portion of the crew. This outrage is reported to have taken piece on or about the 7th or Bth of September last. From inquiries made it appeared that in the evening, whilst the vessel was under weigh, two boats manned by ten men went alongside and intimated their desire to trade, which Captain Robertson declined to do until day light next morning. About seven o'clock on the following day two men, one a Lanun and the other a Suloo man, went on board, apparently to trade with Mr. Burns, having with them some mats, pearls, and camphor. Whilst Mr. Burns was in a stooping posture, his attention was taken up examin ing some pearls in his hand. A Borneo mat rolled up was handed from the boat, which Burns glanced at, and in which was concealed a Suloo kris. The pretended trader adroitly drew out the hidden weapon, and at a single cut severed Burns's head from his body. Captain Robertson was pacing up and down the quarter deck, and at this juncture his back was towards Burns. The Suloo man, ob serving Burns dispatched, made a cut at Robert son's neck, who turning at the instant, received a kris-wound across the chin, and ran forward to the jibboom-end, whence he begged hard for his life. From one of the boats, under the schooner' s bows, several spears were thrown at Robertson, who fell into the water and was finished by a spear thrust through his body. Three of the crew (Malays) were also butchered. Not the least resistance was offered, and the arms were all below in the hold. The rest of the crew took to the water, or escaped up the rigging; their lives were spared, and they were bound with ropes. A native woman on board was cut nearly in two and thrown into the sea. On obtaining this information the Pluto pro ceeded to Labuk Bay, to which place the Dolphin was reported to have been taken by the pirates. Owing to the shallowness of the water the boats were got ready, consisting of the two paddle-box boats, each fitted with a 6-pounder, and the first cutter, under the command of Mr. Hodge, of the Pluto, and accompanied by Mr. St. John, officiating commissioner. In consequence of the intricacy of the Benguin river some difficulty was experienced in hitting upon the right channel. After passing some distance, the Dolphin's boat was observed pulling to wards the flotilla, and at 6 rat. Mr. Hodge boarded the schooner Dolphin at anchor in the Benguin river. The same evening Mr. St. John proceeded up the river to see the chief, from whom it was ascertained that on the schooner's arrival he demanded of the pirates what vessel it was ; they said she was a Spanish trader, and at Suloos, and at war with Spain. They had a right to take her. The crew were interrogated, but from fear answered they did not know what flag the vessel sailed under ; but one of the chief's people seeing the crew, said You are Mr. Burns's crew—l have seen the schooner at Bruni.' The crew then told the chief what had happened, upon which the chief himself cut down one of the pirates, others were wounded and some captured, but were subsequently released by a large party of Suloos and Lanus, who threatened to return and destroy the chief of Benguin. The flotilla towed the Dolphin to Labuk Bay, and on the 2d of November it rejoined the Pluto. The steamer next day towed the Dolphin as far as the northern entrance of Mslluda Bay, placed on board four European seamen, victualled the native crew, and dispatched the schooner to Singapore." THE SUN, LONDON, JUSTICE IN CALIFORNIA. On Saturday night, between 11 and 12 o'clock, James Wilson made a desperate attempt to escape from prison. The two prisoners condemned to die were kept in the second story of a frame building. Oa Saturday night the keeper went into the adjoining room where the other prisoners were kept, for the purpose of replacing a candle which bad burnt out, and in an instant Wilson sprang to the door, turned the key, and ran down the steps on the outside of the house. Another keeper, named John Canavan, who slept in the same room, and was awakened by the turning of the key, instantly sprang up, and gilding the prisoner gone, rushed out and jumped from the top of the stairs into the street, where he found the prisoner, who had apparently become confused and ran against a waggon. The prisoner called out to his pursuer not to shoot, and the latter, although unarmed, had little difficulty in securing him. It appeared that the prisoner bad been furnished with a small saw, with which he worked at his chain (a (heavy ox chain) whenever a favourable opportunity offered, until at length he succeeded in cutting it. The prisoners were taken to the gallows from the gaol on the 28th, at two o'clock precisely, and through a dense concourse of citizens, who lined the whole way from the gaol to the gallows, conducted to the spot where they should end their lives. The two men looked calm and collected. Wilson had a solemn countenance, while Salkmyer smoked his cigar, and seemed unconscious of the fearful trip he was taking. When on the ground, they mounted the platform with nerve, and faced the crowd without the exhibition of any emotion. Wilson stood upon the right and Salk myer on the left. Wilson made a short exordium in so faint a voice that we could not hear, but the pur port of it was to acknowledge his guilt, and warn others from a similar fate. Salktnyer made a long speech, giving his history, and requesting the public press to do him justice. He denied the offence to the last. His voice was very firm, and at times he was much excited, and raised his tone very high. Still there was no faltering. He spoke freely with those who questioned him, and at the end returned thanks to those who had done him any kindness. He said that his conduct was not dictated by irreverence, but he desired to die like a man. The Rev. Mr. Wood then addressed the crowd, and offered up a prayer. The prisoners then bade adieu to the sheriff and the crowd, and the fatal naps were drawn over their heads. After the ropes were adjusted the signal was given, and the drop fell, rendering unto justice and the grave these young and early victims. The immense crowd who witnessed the execution could not have been less than 3,000 people. Not a row has occurred during the week up to the pre sent time. A citizen police guarded the city last night, and will continue on duty through the coming night. A gentleman, recently arrived at Coloms, from the Plains, gives the editor of the News the following ac count of a private hanging affair that oame off on Carson River, on the 26th of September, by an im promptu Vigilance Committee :—"John Wilson and Green Hensley, two men belonging to a train of emi grants composed of persons from Michigan and Mis souri, had some slight difficulty the day before the train arrived at the Fourteen-mile Desert, which amounted merely to words. Some of the company remarked to Wilson that he had better look out, or Hensley would shoot. Nothing more was thought of the matter till the night they crossed the desert. While the party were preparing their supper, Wilson lay down and went to s leep, when Hensley approached him, drew his pistol, and deliberately shot him.

FRIDAY EVENING, JANUARY 16, 1852, MR. MECHI AND HIS BALANCE-SHEET. Mr. Mechi has published the following reflections upon the objections to his farming balance-sheet : " What a storm has burst upon my poor devoted head ! and bow various its ingredients ! Political rancour, personal insult, friendly pity, serious cen sure, malicious imputation! Surely I may say with Yorick, ' No crown of fame can ever fit it. "I do confess that lam an agricultural sinner— that I have deviated from the beaten track—that I pulled down rotten buildings and substituted 9-inch walls and slated roofs—that I have made tanks and erected steam power—that I have well-drained and subsoiled—that I have removed trees and fences—that I have made good roads—that I have employed much labour—made much, but wasted little manure—that I have made no long fallows—that I have cropped half my land every year with wheat—and that I have a try and permanently increased its fertility ! " All this is bad enough, but it was infinitely worse to let the world know it, and, above all (wretch that clearly lam 1) to express an opinion that such operations might possibly ultimately prov e remunerative. lam paying the penalty of my indiscretion, and I can never again hope to r ecover f rom y disgrace, and lok practical agriculture full in the face !

First, then, my land is all perfectly drained, and has not been re drained ; secondly, my b u ildi ngs h ave n ot been pulled down and rebuilt, a lth oug h I have added to them ; thirdly (and I say it without vanity), I am not a bad manager of stock, for it is the opinion of my imme diate practical neighbours and labourers that Ido m ake as much meat out of a given quantity of food as most people. I readily admit that our Essex stock is generally h ar dl y so we ll b re d a s in more favoured districts, excepting a l wa ys our pigs, which formed a material feature o f my s t o ck. In my balance-sheet there was an apparent loss of about 6001. upon 1,6001. of purchased food, which I said is compensated for by the extra manure. ' Oh,' says one, ' but you didn't value th e manure f rom f o od purchased in 1851, which, of of course it was not as muc h, no r half as much. I n course, was as much as in 1850 .' I reply, fact, it was on l y d ur i ng t h e l as t four years that I saw the advant age considerably of feeding with purchased food, and I remember wh en fi rs t I c o mmenced farming being abused and laughed at about my 'soli tary pig,' w hi c h was a ll th e live stock the critic th en happened to see in the yards. There is one im portant fact that some of my objectors, and even my friends, appear to have most unaccountably over looked, and it i s, t h at t h e revolution of the land for a new rental was ma d e on the 30th of October, 1850, and, instead o f b e i ng fi xe d at 12s : , the then valu e o f similar unimp rove d l an ds in the neighbourhood, it was raised to 36 5 . per acre , thus, in fact, tripling the fee simple. Why was it so raised ? Not because it was poorer, but because by b u ildings., drainage, an d im provements, and by the greatly increased fertility an d improved co n di t i on o f the soil itself, it was more pro lific, although it had been cropped alternate years with wheat. The benefits of former manures were partially the causes of that increased valu a ti on , an d you will s ee t h a t I h a ve charged this greatly in crease d rent in my a ccoun ts. ' Oh! but says another critic, ' because you have expended 1,6001. in 1851 i n pur chased food, o f co urse you will continue to do so, and thus lose 6001. annually.' " Now, a reasonable person would infer th a t, h av i ng bought so unusual a quantity, and thus b roug h t my land into su c h a state of fertility, I should not require to buy any more artificial food or manur es ; and , i n fact, it is m y p res ent impression, that my outlay in food and manures will seldom exceed 1501. per annum or 20s. per acre, and still I shall be able to keep plenty of stock from the produce of half my f arm , i t being now in a thriving condition, well filled with manure. "It has been assumed that 6001. is too great a loss on the consumption of 1,6001. purchased food, and that one-third of the cost is too great a sum for the value of the manure. Now, as this is the great ques tion of agriculture, with every deference I be to state that no animal will pay for feeding on purchased food if you leave out of view the value of the manure. "It matters not whether it be hay, turnips, corn, ooff straw chaff, consumed with the fine straw, or oilcake ; and further, if you deduct attend ance, labour, &c., in connexion with the extra manure made, also allow for casualties to stock, one-third loss on the purchased food will be a fair and safe cal culation. " You cannot buy turnips or mangold for removal under 12s. to 15 s. per ton, and certainly the stock pay wi will 305. n0 a tpay more than G. or 7 s . f or t h em. If you ton for straw, o r 31. f or h ay, t h e an i ma l s will not return above half the cost. l am no t agree d with the able and intelligent editor o f a n ex c e llent agricultural pu blicat ion, that I h ave overva l ue d my mangold at 63., and my swe d es at ss. 6d. per ton , consuming price. ton b. o If it takes 1601 b. of turnips to make 11b,, net we i g ht, of meat, a ton would ma k e 141 b., at a. d. 5d 5 10 56 turnips, 901 b. of straw t o ma k e llb. is 6lb. at sd. ....... of l meat, " I c onsider the v a l ue o f the ton of roo t s with the strhaiws ( m inus attenda nce , &c.) O used as an auxil iar y purchased food, the loss on the purchased food would absorb mu c h o f the -value of your turnips. It is well to have a pr o per understand ing on this i mportant qu es ti on, both asf course, tothe loss on the purchase of food and of the benefit derived in the manure , which are about equival en t. Th e principle is the same, wh ether i t be 1 /. or 1,0001. I there fore insist on this trut h, that all purchased food (rape cake, if you perhaps, excepted) must leave a loss or charge for the manure resulting from it. Still it is clearly shown to be a cheaper way of restoring f e rtility than purchased manure. A. wise farmer, therefore, having his land in a state of fertility, will endeavour to main tain it by deep and ample cultivation, and by the con sumption of one-half its produce with the straw of the other half. I predict the time to be coming when the boarded-floor system will be generally adopted for animals, and straw will be deemed far too precious to be trampled under foot; it will be used as food. " Before I conclude these remarks, let me entreat those who have capital to consider the poor unem ployed labourer at this dull season of the year. I have 40 extra men now employed digging the land ten inches deep and throwing it up on ridges at 21 per rod of five yards and a half square, or 11. 6s. Bd. per acre. It ,is a labour test, combining, in my opinion,with charity profit. It is true they can earn but about ls. per day, but I offer it to all the odd men and strong youths who can get nothing else to do, and who must otherwise starve, go into the de tested union, or involve themselves in debt. This operation is cheaper and infinitely y better than plough ing, and the eagerness with which it is availed of im presses me with a very y high sentiment of respect fur the industry of our rural population and their distaste for idleness. or -- Course, I supply them with steel spades and forks which are far made in Birmingham, superior in, ease, effect, and price to the ordinary bungling utensils of most agricultural localities. A great retorm is required in the matter of tools. I , In conclusion, I repeat that my transaction has been, on the whole, profitable ; and we may easily imagine wh a t would be the effect of tripling (by the application of skill and capital) the rentals and f ee _ simples of th e poor lands o f this kingdom. It has been done in my case, and may in others, under the same circumstances. No doubt many will be horri fied at the idea of an overwhelming supply of bread and beef, but, if th • • •le is worth anything, r princ iple the less we produce th e ir the happ ier we shall be. Ido not envy such people their logic or their feelings. I shall go on unflinchingly, so long as it pleases God to spare me, in what I believe to be the path of agricul tural profit andtruth. " I. J. Mitcixt. " Tiptree hall, Belvedon, Essex, Jan. 6." THE LATE BoTLER EXPLOSION AT GREAT-BRIDGE. —The inquest on the bodies of the four unfortunate men killed by the explosion on Wednesday morning last, at the iron -works of Messrs. Davis and Bloomer, of Gold-hill, was resumed on Tuesday. It will be recollected that the inquiry was adjourned on Friday, in order that a further examina tion of the boiler might be made, ani more satisfactory evidence obtained as to its strength and fitness for the work upon which it was employed. On the former occasion an engineer named George Davies gave it as his opinion that the boil er w h ich exploded was such a one as ought not to have been used, and that the accident was caused by its malconstruction and excess of pressure at the time the en gine was stopped. On the other hand, Mr. Millington, another engineer, deposed that the boiler was made of the best quality of iron ; that the plates, in his opinion, had not been red ; were stronger than usually used ; and would have borne a pressure of 401bs. to the square inch. The kind of boiler which had exploded was generally in use at the tim e. that it was const ructed, b u t improvements had since taken place. He cou ld scarcely f o rm an opinion as to the cause of the accident. Y ester d ay Daniel Bradbury was required as the first witness, but in consequence of the injuries he had sustained he was unable to attend, and the inquest was further adjourned until Friday next. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Jan. 15. (Sittings in Bauco.) MARKS V. HAMILTON. This was an action on a fire policy, against the de fendant as public offieer of the Sun. Fire-office. It was tried before the Lord Chief Baron, at Westminster; and, after a lengthened inquiry, the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages 7001. Sergeant SHEE, for the plaintiff, now moved for a rule to show cause why the damages should not be increased to 1,9001. The insurance was on the plaintiff's stock and furniture; and also for 1,2004 on the house in Oxford street, of which he was tenant. It appeared that the plaintiff had expended a consider. able sum of money on the premises. The office had the option of reinstating the premises if they pleased, in stead of paying the money; the declaration stated that the premises had not been reinstated, and this was not traversed; but at the trial some of the witnesses proud that the premises had to all appearance been built up again. _ _ Sergeant SIIEE contended that, as the denial of the reinstatement was not traversed, the plaintiff was en titled to recover the whole amount for which the premises were insured, irrespective of what might have been done to them sine?. Baron PARKE—You cannot exclude this from the con sideration of the jury in estimating the damage which the plaintiff had sustained. Sir F. POLLOCK—You may take a rule to show cause why you should not increase the damages to the extent of your interest in the 14 , zmises. It was agreed at the trial that the precise amount should be ascertained by some one to bo appointed by tha Court, who should ex amine the premises and see what has really,been done by the office. MARKS V. HAMILTON. This was a cross motion in the same case by the At• torney-General on the part of the defendant, for a rule to show cause why there should not be a now trial for misdirection, as his Lordship ought to have directed the jury that the plaintiff was not entitled to recover. The plaintiff had been discharged under the Insolvent Act, but had been afterwards brought up again, and the first order for his discharge was rescinded, and his protection was suspended for twelve months ; in the interval between the first and second orders, the in surance was effected. Under these circumstances, it was contended that the plaintiff had not a❑ insurable interest in the premises. His property, under Ist and 2d Vic., cap. 110, sec. 67, vested in his assignees, and they alone had an interest which could be the subject of insurance. Baron MARTIN—You ought to have had another plea for that; the plaintiff has an interest of possession. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—SUCK All interest may be sufficient against a wrongdoer, but this is a contract which is based on the party having an actual inter est. The office is in an awkward position, as they are liable to be called on by the assignees as well as the plaintiff. _ _ - Sir F. POLLOCK—This Court will protect you u to that by restraining the plaintiff from taking out execa lion if the assignees are entitled to the proceeds. The Court will take time to consider whether a rule shall be granted. POLICE INTELLIGENCE MARYLEBONE. James Cadby, alias Randall, and Frederick Mann, two of the most artful begging letter imposters in London, and who for a considerable period have by their fradu lent practices " victimized" the benevolent and humane to a considerable extent, were brought up from the Houso of Detention, and placed at the bar before Mr. Long for re-examination. Lieutenant-General Sir W. Napier, General Stop forth, Captain Chappell, R N., and other gentlemen who had evidence to give in the case, were present; and Captain Wood, the manager of the Mcndictty Society, was also in attendance. Some particulars connected with what took place at the first inquiry have already appeared. The additional evidence now given went to show that the name of Lieu tenant-General Sir William Napier, as a subscriber in the sum of 51. was not a genuine one the paper pro duced, but that he had given 31. for the benefit of the widow, and affixed his signature for that sum to a paper which was handed to him at the time, He could not identify either of the prisoners as being the parties by whom he had been waited upon and solicited. The impression upon the wax of the en velop containing the letter bearing the name of Captain Chappell, who is secretary and joint ma❑ager of the Royal Mail Steam-packet Company, Muorgate-street, City, was from the said company's seal, one of which was stolen some time ago. Ile (the Captai❑) knew nothing whatever of the prisoners or of the letter, neither was ho cognizant of the distress of a Mrs. Erskine. It was further shown that Horsford had made all possible inquiry about Clapham fur a lady Lamed Erskine, and that there was no such party known there or in tho neighbourhood. The prisoners had, on former occasions, been charged with practices of a similarly fraudulent description, and bad been more than once convicted; they were the most artful and successful im postors in their line that he had ever met with. The prisoners, who had no defence to make, were each sent to the House of Correction for three months, with hard labour. CLERKENWELL. A middle-aged woman, named Eleanor White, was brought up on remand. She had been more than once before under examination, at the instance of the paro chial authorities of St. Pancras, for wilful neglect of her two children in locking them up in the room where she lodged, during her absecces of many hours at night with another woman who lived with her, and so leaving them without the food and attention necessary to their tender years. The particular subject of inquiry was the youngest, an infant only Dino or ten months old, which some time ago was taken from her on the representations of her landlord, and received into St. Pancras Work house, where the poor little creature soon after died. It appears that as the tendency of the evidence on a former examination had marked this as a case which a magistrate would not deal with summarily, but, if proved that the death of the infant had accrued from the neglect of the mother, he must send her before a jury, the pa rish authorities had lately come to a resolution not to prosecute. Yesterday, however, the defendant was brought from prison, in accordance with the last remand; and Mr. Birchmore, overseer of St. Pancras, attended for the parish. Mr. TYRWEIITT expressed regret on having heard that the parish officers were not disposed to prosecute. Mr. Bircbmore was aware of the nature of the case; the question involved was whether death had occurred from the wilful and culpable neglect of the woman to her child; and this was a nice and intricate inquiry, but one which he had no doubt would be fully investigated. The case of Slow, and other cases OR the books, showed that this belonged to a class which ought to be fully investigated; and by Baines's Act, recently passed, overseers were not only privileged or empowered, but were bound to con• duct the prosecution and to pay the expenses from the funds of the parish. Mr. Birchmore said that when the prisoner was first given in charge, he was of opinion that it was a case for investigation. Mr. rawisirT said he had of course no wish to pre judge the case; but it was for the parish to consider whether it was not a case in which they ought to press an investigation, and whether the overseers had the power of reimbursing themselves the costs from the parish funds; else, whether they would not bring down censure and odium upon themselves if they declined to piosecute such a case. Mr. Robinson, a medical gentleman, deposed that he had only seen the infant in the last stage of its illness, and when there was no chance of recovery; so that, although evidence of gross neglect were apparent, he had not had the opportunity of collecting symptoms, or medical data, sufficient to enable him to fix a definite time, during which the infant bad been subject to that neglect. It might have been several months. Mr. TYRWIIITT said he could understand that a long course of mere neglect, without other ill usage, might be pursued fur some time without becoming manifest by absolute illness, but that towards the end some disorder would break out that would be fatal. Foulkes, landlord of the house where the prisoner lodged, deposed that in September she had lived in his back parlour for seven or eight weeks, paying 2i. a-week. She had two children. Ho had noticed them, and ono of them was the infant that had died in the workhouse. It was very ill from neglect; for Mrs. White would go out at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, leaving both the children in the room, and on one occa sion did not come home till about ten or eleven o'clock the next morning. Her coming home at one or two in the morning was a common occurrence; the children being left alone. The witness said that, he being out a good deal, his wife knew more about the prisoner's ill usage of her children than he did, and ho lita!e t d ol a dhim par ticular insta nce o f crue lty w hich his wife had OF, but whi c h cou ld no t b e received as evidence. He said that his wife had been prevented by illness from attend ing that day. The prisoner denied the fact the witness had alleged, and said it had been done by the woman who lodged with her. The MAGISTRATE observed that the evidence of Mrs. Foulkes would be necessary. In answer to Mr. TYRWIIITT i the witness said that the prisoner was often drunk when she came home late at night or in the morning, and then she used to " give the baby a parcel of stuff to make it sleep." Mr. Waldegrave, surgeon to the parish, deposed that he bad attended to the infant every day from its coming into the workhouse to the time of its death. He had no hope from the first. It was excessively emaciated, and exhibited symptoms of neglect and want of proper food. He could not undertake to fix a precise period during which the infant must have so suffered; but perhaps it might be dated from the period when it was taken from the breast, and he did not think the mother could have suckled it more than a month or so. The immediate cause of death was mesenteric disease, which might have been prevented by proper food and careful treatment. All the symptoms ho had seen would be produced by improper food and neglect. The prisoner was again remanded to Saturday, when the evidence being completed she will be fully committed for trial. THE LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR.—Lettena have ar rived from Madeira this week, from Lord Frederick Fite clarence, the contents of which are of a very gratifying cha racter. His Lordship has completely recovered from a fit of the gout, which proved very slight, and is now in the enjoy ment of excellent health. The mild climate, we are happy to learn, has been highly beneficial to Miss Fitzclarence, whose health has considerably improved.

Commander Charles Codrington Forsyth (1849) hes been appointed an inspecting commander in the Coast guard service. This officer entered the navy in 1826, passed his examination in 1836, and served from that time as mate on foreign service, particularly in the Beagle, under Captains Clements and Stokes. He was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant in 1843, and at tained his present rank for his services at the Cape, where he did so much good service as Admiralty agent in landing the supplies that the Commander•in-Chief attributed the safety and success of the army on one oc casion, mainly to Lieutenant Forsyth's admirable ar rangements. Commander Forsyth, however, has been better known to the public of late years by his extraor dinary trip to the Arctic regions in Lady Franklin's little ship, the Prince Albert. In this vessel, it will be remembered, ho ran out to Barrow's Straits, down Regent's Inlet, and back again to Scotland i❑ one season, and was the first to bring tidings of the traces of Sir John Franklin's party at Beechey Island. Commander V. A. Massingberd (1842) has also been appointed inspecting commander in the Coast guard ser vice. This officer entered the navy in 1822, and has served about 20 years asst. He was wounied in 1827 in a bout engagement with pirates; passed his examina tion in 1828, but was not promoted until 1837. Was wrecked in the Pelorus in 1839, and has obtained his present rank for his service in China, as First Lieutenant of the Blenheim. He commanded the Alecto steam-sloop at the Brazils for two years.

PORTSMOUTH, THURSDAY.—The weather is extremely changeable; yesterday we had literally a summer's day. Now we have again a westerly gale, with much rain. The Hendrick Hudson, American packet, sailed yesterday, but put back again last night to St. Helens's, on account of the gale. The examination - of the remaining stock of preserved meats was continued to-day at the Royal Clarence yard, by Mr. John Davies, the master-attendant; Mr. Joseph Pinhorn, storekeeper ; and Dr. Mliechnie, of the Royal Naval Hospital, Hasler, forming the board. About 400 canisters, varying in size from 61b. to 101 b. each, were opened to-day in the lower store, where the investigation first commenced, the attempt to examine the canisters in the upper store having failed from the overpowering influence of the stench upon the officers and men employed in the investigation. Of the 400 cases opened to-day a better proportion than upon any other day hitherto was found passable for consumption within forty-eight hours, 189 having been reported " good." The 211 bad were condemned to the depths of the sea. Some of those reported " good" were very good—fine mutton and beef; the mutton especially was good. But the bad and condemned exhibited the filthi ness before chre,nicled, some of them containing intes tines with the excrement in, rotten liver, putrid kid ney, and heart; tail, tongue, ligament of the shin and throat, palate, root of tongue, putrid washy decomposi tion, &c. The stench arising from them was awful. A greater proportion of the canisters examined to-day con sisted of portions of the stock of preserved meats re turned into store on the paying off of her Majesty's ships Hercules, 72, troop-ship; Frolic, 16, lately from the Mediterranean station; and the Sharpshooter iron steam sloop, lately from the River Plate station, clearly show ing that the meat has been issued fur service. What became of the 2,000 canisters taken away by the con tractor's agent about three months since without exami nation, by whose order they were taken from the store, and what measures were taken by the Admiralty in re lation thereto, are questions very frequently titled here. Major Harvey, A.D.O. to the Lieutenant-Governor, has resigned and retirsd to half-pay unattached, and Lieutenant D'Aguilar, of the Royal Artillery, rises to the vacancy. CaptainCheethatn's company of Royal Artillery moved from Southsea Castle barracks to Woolwich this day. Captain Gambidir's company arrived here to-day from Woolwich, and is now quartered in Colewort-barracks, a company having been removed from thence to South sea Castle. The 7th and 95th Regiments have been practised in the great gun exercise on the ramparts during the pre sent and past week, and appear to make rapid progress in training. It is stat©d that the 38th Regiment will shortly be brought into this garrison from Winchester, the greatsr portion occupying Fort Cumberland quarters. This would augment the garrison to four complete regiments of the line. WOOLWICH, JAN. 15.—1 t is stated, although not as yet officially given, that Commander Thomas Belgrvge 1848) will have the command of the Hydra steam-sloop, t Sheerness; and that Major• General the Hon. George Cathcart, appointed Governor of the Cape of Good Hope, will proceed in her to his destination. The Sulphur sloop, long used as a receiving ship at Woolwich, is to be taken to Deptford tomorrow to be broken up, and it is expected the Hebe, fifth-rate re ceiving ship, also at Woolwich, will be taken to Sheer ness or Chatham.
