NORRIS, GAMEKEEPER VS LORD WARD, AND COMMITTAL FOR WILFUL MURDER OF ZEPHANIAH Hum.—Our papers of the Bth and 15th instant presented various particulars relative to the melancholy affair of the shooting of Mr. John William Norris, one of the gamekeepers to Lord Ward, at Himley, on Tuesday, the 30th of June, by Zephaniah Hull, also a gamekeeper to his Lord ship. Mr. Norris, we regret to state, notwithstanding skil ful and diligent medical attendance from Messrs. Thomas and Samuel Fereday, surgeons, of Dudley, died from lock jaw on Monday last, at half-past twelve o'clock at noon. The prisoner Hull, who had been remanded from the 30th of June to the 13th of July, and subsequently to the 27th inst., was, in consequence, taken by Colonel Hogg, by directions from Mr. Briscoe, from the station-house in this town to the Cross Inn, Kingswinford, yesterday (Tuesday) morning, for re-examination. The magistrates present were Samuel Stone Briscoe, Esq., W. H. Cope, Esq., and Charles Henry Molineux, Esq., and an extended and minute inves tigation into the circumstances of the affair took place. Mr. Cope proved the dying declaration of the deceased, which had been taken by him, and which was to the effect that the shooting was purposely and deliberately done; and also the voluntary statement of the prisoner that the shooting took place in a struggle, and was accidental. Portions of the evi hence bore a favourable aspect for the prisoner, who how ever, on the termination of the examination, was committed to the assizes, to take his trial for the wilful murder of the deceased. A coroner's inquest had been appointed to be held at Ilimley on the same day, at three o'clock, but as the pri soner was under examination at Kingswinford at the time appointed, the inquest was adjourned until to-day (Wednes day). In the meantime a post nortem examination will tak- place.— IVolcerhamptnn Chronicle. DEATH BY DaowNlNG.—On Saturday last, the 18th i i,s n i s il t, a3 G r e . ntlema n Cadet Charles C. Hulbert, of the Royal it College, was drowned while bathing, being, with one exception (namely, death by a chance blow), the only case of fatal accident which has occurred since the first eqablishment of the College, in 1802—a period of 44 years. The coroner's inquest returned a verdict of " Accidentally drowned," founded on the facts brought forward in evidence, namely, that the bathing-pond is very shallow; that it was frequently visited during the bathing hours by the orderly officer and sergeant ; and that the utmost and most perse vering exertions were employed by the surgeon of the insti tution for a period of nearly three hours to restore animation. TIIE ROYAL CHRISTENING. The Lord Chamberlain, by her Majesty's command, has issued invitations for a grand banquet at I3uckingham palace, on Saturday next, iraionour of the baptism of the infant Princess. The royal invitations to the banquet are confined to the principal members of the Government, and the Duke of Nor folk, and the chief officers of State. Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Hereditary Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Mecklenburgh-Strelitz, the Duchess of Kent, and Prince George of Cambridge, and his Serene Highness the Prince of...Leiningen, are to dine with her Majesty and the they Consort on the auspicious oc casion. It is probable that the King and Queen of the Belgians may arrive in this country in the course of the week, ex pressly to be witnesses at the solemnity. - The baptismal ceremony will be performed in the royal chapel at Buckingham Palace, when his Grace the Arch bishop of Canterbury will officiate. We hear that the distinguished personages honoured with invitations are to assemble at the Palace at half-past six o'clock, and the christening is to take place previous to the banquet. Tier Majesty will have an evening party after the banquet, the Lord Chamberlain having caused cards of invitation to be issued to above three hundred personages of distinction. The hour appointed for the company to assemble is men tioned on the cards to be half-past nine, and that the com pany be in full dress. TO THE LORD JOHN RUSSELL, &c. My Lord,—ln this crisis of colonial 'affairs, the conduct of the Government being again vested in. the leader under whom we achieved that which shoOleid have been a wide and general blessing—the abolition of'slavery—l address you in the hope that it is not too late to amend your colonial policy. I object to the measures you have proposed, as unjust to the colonists, and not in accordance with those liberal prin ciples in the maintenance of which it has so frequently been my pride to rank myself as Tour humble kupporter. You tell us that the proansed and present supply of sugar from the British colonies is inadequate to meet the home con sumption ; that as we, the colonists, cannot produce enough sugar to answer the demand, the difficulty is to be grappled with; and ask whence is the deficiency to be supplied but by the admission of foreign and slave-grown sugar? You hope that when the trade is open to the competition of the world it will raise such a spirit of emulation in our breasts, that we shall proportionably increase our production, and benefit the public and ourselves by industrial exertion. Your hope, my Lord, so far as regards the continental colo nies under the present inadequacy of labour, is utterly vain and impossible. I deal in no theory, but with the hard and cruel fact. When the abolition of slavery was proposed I held six estates in the continental colony of Berbice. There were about 360 slaves upon them, and those estates had produced a net in coins of from three to seven thousand a year. I hold those properties now. Under your guidance I assisted to fight the great battle of emancipation ; for though well aware that I must lose by the ab-lition of slavery, still its existence could not be con scieniiously defended by reasoning, human or divine. At the time of its abolition, and subsequently, your Lord ship may perhaps recollect that I urged upon you a system of wide and general free labour, and prayed that its first intro duction might not be confined to the Mauritius, but that, ac cording to the general and generous principle of affording to the labourer the best market for his hire, the whole of the West India colonies might be thrown open to those who, guarded by the Government as strictly as necessary, might be inclined to better their condition. All classes might then have shared in the blessings contingent on, and not impos sible to, the liberal and comprehensive scheme embraced by emanicpation. The admission of free labour, which ought to have gone hand in hand with emancipation (a more beautiful conjunc tion can scarcely he imagined), was, however, neglected. It was refused, or ultimately saddled with such injurious re strictions that, so far as the colony of Berbice is concerned, up to the present time the shadowy boon has been completely valueless. I particularly call your Lordship's attention to the locality of my estates (better known as Benfield's estates), simply that by the true picture of my distress I may leave you to judge of the tenfold misery of others who have nothing to support their state and station in society, or to find them in daily bread, but their colonial possessions. Since the abolition of slavery my estates have returned no income. They have been a heavy debt, and an annual loss of more than from 1,0001. to 1,200/. a year. The original prime cost of the property, before a clearance in the bush was made, amounted to 100,0001. Ido not, under present circumstances, return one hogshead of sugar to this country; afford me but the free labour I am honestly willing to pay for, and I can return 1,000 hogsheads. Judge, then, the ge neral fact of the cause of the "deficiency of supply " by the instance I set before you. The compensation I received on the abolition of slavery was about 14,000/. Is that a " liberal compensation" for the loss of all income and superadded debt? Another fatal mistake has been made in bygone legislation —let it be avoided for the future. It is, that no distinction has been drawn between the necessities of the island and those of the continental colony. The same rules cannot be applied to both. In the island the labourer, or the man that should be the labourer, is circumscribed—his means of living without in dustry are more compressed—he is shut up and within the influence of civilisation, and ho is, to an extent, constrained to do as others do. Not so on the continent, not 60 in Berbice. In Berbice civilisation is surrounded by a vast wilderness, the soil un occupied, and vegetation so luxuriant, that a month's labour in the bush will afford vegetable subsistence enough to the squatter or negro for the year's consumption. The rivers and the woods supply him with deer, with fish, flesh, and fowl, and free of society, he needs no clothes; be is above the necessity of labour. The proprietor and planter has become the real slave to neglect and oppression. You have, my Lord, i n t h e cont i nenta l co l on y, g i ven th e negro an unlimited, and th ere f ore a d anger ous, freedom, without surrounding him early enough by circumstances him temporally and religiously useful to p ile mother country. In Berbice you have taken loprietor the sole value of his luxurious soil, the ts r es e hl a ffro l aounin ldd worth tkthe eoe t o P f that possession, to obtain which he once had British encouragement and support. The British planter . in Berbice left to perish, and succeeding Governments of this country, in establishing and recogni-ing the glorious achievement of emancipation, have sullied its purity by per mitting the existence of a monstrous and unjust evil, alike foreign to the interests of liberality and compassion. The slave being freed from his shackles, and the proprietor now being a greater slave to injurious oppression than ever the forced labourer was, inasmuch as the one starves, while the other, even in his slavery, has been proved in many in stances to have saved money, the proprietor's cries upon this country for redress shi uld find as willing an ear in the one in stance as was afforded to the negro i n th e o ther. As your Lordship's follower in your general line of policy, I protest against your p resent co l on i a l propos i t i on — not to the ultimate design, but to your immediate method. Give to the ruined colonist the means of cultivation open to us here in England ; enable him to compete with the rest of the world, and to be aroused into that state of industrial emulation you say you hope to see supervene upon his pre sent helpless and forced inactivity. Give us, give me, the simple labour I require, the power of paying for the fair and remunerative day's work, and carry out your system of free trade all over the world. Put us first into a position to ac cept your free-trade principles—and you can only do so by the importation of labour, ample, speedy, and decisive—and on these just grounds I will still be, as I have been, your humble but faithful fellow- labourer and follower, GRANTLEY F. BERKELEY. Berkeley-house, July 21. GRAND FLORAL FETE OF THE ROYAL SOUTH LON DON FLORICULTURAL SOCIETY.—This society held their third grand flower show on Wednesday, at the Royal Surrey Zoological Gardens, and often as we have had occasion to speak in terms of praise of the different shows of this so ciety, we have never yet seen one so justly entitled to un qualified encomium as the present. The improvement in the shows is molt marked since the gardens came into the present proprietor's hands ; all the arrangements are liberal and excellent, and certainly the indefatigable exertions of the present secretary, Mr. Neville, have been crowned with the most complete success. Amongst the earliest of the great concourse of the nobility and gentry who thronged the gardens during the day, was his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambrid g e and the Prince of Mecklenburg Strelitz, who expressed in very warm terms to Mr. Tyler their en tire satisfaction with all th• arrangements. A great number of medals were distributed among the most successful com petitors for the honours of the day. For the best collection of miscellaneous plants the gold Victoria medal was awarded to Mr. Ayres ; and for the second best collection, the gold Adelaide medal to Mr. Bruce. For 12 white ground picco teas, the Rev. A. Matthews became the winner of the gold Adelaide medal ; and for carnations Mr. Holloway obtained a similar prize. For the best collection of plants in the nurserymen's class, the gold Adelaide medal was won by Mr. Fairbairn ; and for the best single plant (any genus) at dusk a dis the silver Victoria medal was awarded to Mr. Dawson. The assemblage of company was very numerous ; in the course of p a l t e t r y a c e t the day many thousands of persons must have entered the gates.

EXTRAORDINAR' RECOVERY AFTER T 2 A --• BROKEN BACK. —During the month last past a fine athletic young roan, re siding at Hartshay, near Heage, met with a severe injury of the back from a heavy mass of coals falling upon him whilst at work in a pit belonging to C.

A fracture bed on the double inclined plane was forwarded as speedily as possible; and an ingenious kind of strait waistcoat, with pulleys, &c., was prepared by a saddler under the immediate direction of Mr. Evans. Powerful ex tension was made, which gave immediate relief to the part affected. No untoward symptom occurred, and we are credibly informed that the man has already returned to his duties in.

A special meeting of the shareholders in this line took place yesterday at the London Tavern, under the provisions of Lord Dalhousie's Dissolution Act, in order to determine upon the propriety of winding up the affairs of the Company. There was rather a numerous attendance of the proprietary present. The chair was taken, at half-past one o'clock, by Mr. E. Scard. The SECRETARY read the advertisement convening the meeting. The Cs AISMAN said he had received a letter from Mr. De Burgh regretting that he was unable to attend the meet ing of the Company. in consequence of a domestic affliction. It did not behove hint to state very much to the meeting; he would merely observe that they were all aware of the rejection of the Bill in the House of Commons, and likewise of the action in the Court of Chancery commenced against the directors. He was happy to say that the plaintiffs, Messrs. Castendeeck, Perring, and Swinton, had consented that the money be withdrawn from the Ac countant-General's hands, and placed in the hands of two of the directors, Mr. Edward Scard and Mr. Johnston, and two of the plaintiffs, Mr. Castendeeck and Mr. Swinton. He would conclude by observing that they would do their utmost to discharge their liabilities in a manner satisfactory to the pro- prietary at large. Mr. FRANCIS begged to move that the Company be dis solved. Mr. COLBET seconded the resolution. Mr. CLARKE desired to have a statement of the accounts before he would proceed to act as a scrutineer. Some very disorderly and irregular conversation here en sued, and Mr. Daniel, one of the scrutineers, refused to act with Mr. Clarke. After some further noisy discussion, the resolution was carried for a dissolution of the Company, the number votine , being 456 Cares, assenting to a dissolution without bankruptcy, and 510 remain neutral. The meeting then separated. DIRECT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. The adjourned meeting of the shareholders, for the purpose of determining, on the dissolution of the Company, was held yesterday at the King's Head Tavern, Poultry, at two o'clock. Mr. Alderman CHALIS having taken the chair, apologised for not being present at the appointed hour, having been detained by magi:terial duties, and then read the clause of the Act under which the adjourned meeting was held. The SECRETARY read the advertisement convening the meeting. The CHAIRMAN then said, the gentlemen present would recollect from what occurred at the last meeting that the whole question was simply whether they should go on, or whether they gould dissolve the Company ? and, if so, whether they would declare a bankruptcy, or consult, perhaps, their inte rests, more efficiently, by leaving it in the hands of the com mittee. He had told them at the last meeting that the effect of going into a Court of Bankruptcy would be that the concern would be referred over to a Master in Chancery, and it might not be settled in the course of two or three years. He said, however, if the Company could be referred to any official tribunal in the country, with a pros pect of ready settlement, the Committee would be very glad to get rid of it. He made these remarks because he took the chair that day, as he hadidone before, only with a view to yield to every proprietor every reasonable satisfaction on any matter connected with the present failure—for failure it had been; and just because it was so, the suspicions of proprietors would be most naturally excited against the Provisional Committeemen. For his part, he had actually sought for objections among his friends, and the amount of these, he would be candid enough to tell them, was that the committee had spent a large amount of money on engineering, when they knew that the pub lic would not take up their shares. But this objection arose out of ignorance of what actually occurred. It was only in the month of October that the shares were issued, and they were all issued at the same time. Now if it was considered that by the month of Feb ruary following the committee had to place the Company in a fit position to make their deposits, so that between October and February they had to originate a working com mittee, get up surveys, and prepare sections for 150 miles of railway, within the space of six or seven weeks—if this was taken into account, it must appear that the Provisional Com mittee had only done what they would have been most culpable, indeed criminal, if they had neglected. Another charge against the Committee was that they had not used any diligence in getting in those deposits which had not been paid. But he asked what right, till the present hour, the Committee had to go forward to those persons with an account of ex penses and a calculation of the proportion for which they were liable, and demand payment? Now, however, it was different, and the Committee pledged themselves to use every means to make these persons pay up, which they could do, he was sure, more efficiently new, even in law, than they could before. Ile was of opinion that the Company was in this respect in a more favourable position than any other company which had hitherto dissolved and its claims stronger ; for no promise had been made at starting which had not been fulfilled, nothing had been held out which was not afterwards made good. Indeed, next week they were as ready as at first to hold a meeting, and to tell the merits of the proposed line; they wanted nothing but money to enable them to go on. The only other objection which he would mention arose from a mistake made in the report of the last meet ing by, he believed, the Railway Times, in stating the number of shares written for to be but 400,000, instead of 1,400,000, which was the true number. The mistake, how ever, had been the occasion of his receiving several letters from the country, altogether arising from a casual error of the press. The proposal of the Committee, he said, was, that they should pay over to the shareholders immediately the balance in hand, about 268. a share, the Provisional Com mitteemen standing aside till they got in money from the Provisional Committeemen who had not paid up, and the allottees. _ . The Solicitor of the Company stated, in reply to a question from one of the proprietors, that the number of committee men who had not paid upon their shares was thirty-three. A PRoPRIETOR asked to have a list of those thirty-three persons, who he said had acted so unlike gentlemen, and re pudiated their just and legal debts. The CHAIRMAN said, he and the committee thoroughly sym pathised with the indignation that had been expressed against those who had connected themselves with an undertaking while its prospects were fair, but had abandoned it so soon as these had changed. lie stated that they would use their en deavours in every way to recover the debts, as indeed they had done already, having issued writs against several, and holding over them the shame of exposure of their conduct. A PROPRIETOR moved that a list of the names of those on the provisional committee who had not paid should be fur nished and published. The CHAIRMAN said that it was not regular, according to the Act of Parliament under which they were met, to intro duce other business at present. But what would answer the same purpose, the Committee pledged themselves to intimate to the persons in question that, unless they paid up, their names should be printed and sent round to all the share holders.—(Hear, hear.) The CHAIRMAN, in reference to a remark which fell from a person in the meeting, said the Committee still& had the power by law, and more power than before, to make these parties pay up, The scrutineers having completed their task, The CHAIRMAN intimated that the votes for dissolution were 3,785, neuters 10, against dissolution none, for bank ruptcy none, and in the room but did not register 100. The number of those who voted at the previous meeting for dis solution, and whose votes must be reckoned in addition to the numbers of that day was 2,985, being some hundreds more than the Act requited of them. The CHAIRMAN, after declaring the vote, expressed his high gratification at the result. Mr. BLEADEN moved a vote of thanks to Alderman Challis for his conduct in the chair, and for the upright way in which he had conducted himself throughout the whole pro ceedings. ➢ir. DEANE seconded the motion, which was carried unani mously. Mr. Alderman CHALLIS expressed his gratitude for the kindness with which they had listened to him on this un fortunate affair. The meeting then adjourned. OPENING OF THE RICHMOND RAILWAY. Wednesday being the day appointed for the formal open ing of this line of railway, at two o'clock:a special train of 16 carriages was in readiness to convey those who had been in vited to the picturesque village which is the terminus of the line, there to partake the pleasures of a grand fete pre pared for them by the directors in commemoration of this auspicious occasion. At a few minutes after the hour named the train started, and moved slowly along the main line of the South-Western for two miles; it then turned off to the right, and proceeded at a more rapid rate along the newly-constructed portion to Richmond. The pace though not great, yet was sufficiently fast, and, from the very slight motion experienced, there is no doubt when it has been longer used all unpleasant motion will entirely cease. The distance from the junction with the South-Western to its terminus at Richmond is six miles, and a dead level the entire distance. The works are comparatively trifling, as regards engineering difficulties, and, with the exception of a somewhat long viaduct at Wandsworth, the line presents no peculiar feature. The country it traverses, as must be well known, is about the most beautiful in the vicinity of London. Exclusive of the Nine-elms' station, there are to be five others, viz., one at Wandsworth, one at Putney, one at Barnes, one at Mortlake, and one forming the terminus at Richmond. These stations are not yet quite finished, but will be ready for the reception of passengers on the 27th instant, the time named for opening the line to the public. In its course the railway crosses four roads on the level, but these are so guarded as to prevent the possibility of an accident. On arriving at Richmond the station presented a gay ap pearance decked out in flags with "'Welcome," in large characters, over its approaches ; while the ringing of bells and the strains of music ushered in the first train. A second ' train followed at four o'clock, and excursion trains were run ring throughout the day for the benefit of the inhabitants of Richmond. By five o'clock a large party of ladies and gen tlemen bad assembled at the Castle, where a very grand en tertainment, in the shape of a cold collation, accompanied by all the delicacies of the season, was prepared to do honour to the occasion. At six o'clock about 400 sat down to this im posing banquet , and did am p le j ustic e to the g ood thin g s pro vided for them by Mr. Ellis. Among those present were—Dr. Bowring, M.P., Sir J. W. Reeve, Alderman Humphery, Alderman Sir W. Magnay, Alderman Challis, Mr. A. Spottiswoode, Mr. W. Hawes, Alderman Farebrother, Alderman H. Hughes, Sir J. Mac adam, Mr. F. Kemble , Mr. B. Cohen, Mr. W. T. Leader, the Hon. 11. Browne, the Hon. and Rev. R. Eden, Alderman Farncomb, Mr. Sheriff Laurie, Mr. W. H. Bodkin, the Lord Mayor, Admiral Ross, Sir C. Wade, Mr. Sheriff Chaplin, Mr. W. Chadwick, Sir P. Laurie, Sir J. Duke, Sir Chapman Marshall, Mr. Ralph Etwall, M.P., &c. After the banquet the usual toasts on such occasions were pledged in bumpers, and among them "Success to the Rich mond Railway," which was drunk with the greatest en thusiasm. A splendid ball, to which the beauty and fashion of the neighbourhood were invited, concluded the day's amusement, and dancing was continued to a late hour. The proprietors of this company may congratulate themselves on a most successful commencement.

SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH. PORTSMOUTH, JULY 22.—During the last few days some very interesting experiments have been made in the dock yard and on board her Majesty's ships Pique and Blake, with a portion of the submarine telegraph intended to be laid across this harbour under the sanction of the Lords of the Admiralty Commissioners. The quantity of the telegraph wire already perfected, with which these experiments were made, is about half of the entire length that will be required to reach from the victualling-yard at Gosport, where the present line of telegraphic communication terminates, to the Admiral's official residence on this side. The experiments were made under the superintendence of Mr. Bay, the chemical referee and lecturer to the dockyard. The galvanic batteries used on the occasion consisted merely of five single jars, one inch and a half by four, on Smee's principle. The first experiment tried was, to test the gravity of the wire, in order to ascertain whether the substances used to secure perfect insulation, might not have rendereol the wire too buoyant. This, however, was satisfactorily proved not to be the case, for upon its being payed out from the stern of her Majesty's ship Blake, its gravity was found quite sufficient for the deepest water. The index used most satisfactorily tested the capabilities of the invention, being one which had been constructed for the conveyance of signals for short distances—a mere model, made by Mr. Hay, for the inspec tion of the Admiralty, by which communications might be made from the bridge of steam-vessels to the engine-room below. The electric fluid was made to traverse the whole length of the submarine telegraph, which, having been car ried out in a bight from the Blake by the boats in attendance, was allowed to sink to the bottom. The ;signals were as promptly shown by the index as though merely transmitted from the deck to the engine-room, without passing so many fathoms through the salt water, thus proving beyond doubt the practical success of this mode of conveying intelligence even across the sea. Several other experiments were tried with other wires, differently insulated, but neither as re gards gravitation nor as regards giving a perfect communi cation were these modes of insulation equal to that decided upon *by the inventors. In establishing the electric tele graph' across a harbour so crowded with shipping as this generally is, the practical difficulty arising from the pos sible disturbance of the telegraph is the only one which the projectors had to contend with, for it is now proved beyond doubt that the electric fluid can be transmitted through the water with the same facility as it is along the lines in ope ration on land. The mode of ;conveying these electric com munications on land, however perfect, could not be adopted across a broad channel of the sea, and hence the present te legraphic communication between the dockyard and the Ad miralty in London has been imperfect, because the impedi ments in conveying it across the water have been hitherto deemed insurmountable. Not that there was any difficulty in conveying the electric fluid through the water, because the known laws of electricity have always shown this to be feasible, but because of the difficulty in laying down a line of conveyance which should not be interfered with by the ca sualties of the harbour. The projectors of the present plan being nautical as well as scientific men, have surmounted this apparent obstacle, which the mere scientific have hi therto not been able to overcome. The importance of these experiments is obvious, forif the communication can be car ried across Portsmouth harbour, it follows as a matter of course that it may, with at least equal facility, be carried from headland to headland, where it cannot be interfered with by the anchorage of numerous vessels. The Retribution, steam-frigate, Captain Lushington, ar rived at Devonport on Monday night, from Cork. She was to have returned on Tuesday evening, with the supernume raries for the fleet conveyed to Devonport by the Dido. The Trident steam-packet, Lieutenant Commander Rigge, was put out of dock at Chathatn on Tuesday, and was taken alongside the sheer hulk, and had new masts put on board of shorter dimensions, instead of cutting the original masts. She was taken into dock again the same tide, and has been reported to be ready for sea on the Bth of August. The Antelope, steam-packet, to have engines of 300 horse power, and to be employed in the Mediterranean, to take the mails from the lonian Islands, and the Sharpshooter, steam-gun vessel, to have engines of 200 horse power, both built of iron by Messrs. Ditchburn and Mare, will be launched on Saturday next at Blackwall. The Columbine, 12, Commnnder Booth, is fast progressing at Chatham, and is reported to be ready for sea the 25th instant. The ship Gazelle, Peirce, master, from Leghorn, arrived at Chatham on Tuesday, with a cargo of timber for the dockyard.

THE SNUBBED ONE.— Sir Culling Eardly Smith never alluded once at Edinburgh to the British Lion. This neglect from one who, on every former occasion, clung to the. lion's mane, and pinched his tail to make him roar, met with its due reward. Sir Culling was thrown out. Yet we can not help thinking, that if he had thrown himself boldly on the British Lion he would have been brought in. If Sir C. Eardhay le Smith had only let the British lion loose, we ar e sure would have carried everything before him.—Puweil. S N. DrA.TII OF - CORD WIL RUSSELL, G.C.B. An elder brother of the Premier, and a ViiintAkie it 1m member of the ducal house of Bedford, has ended his days • rather prematurely, for the subject of thi s not i ce was only two years older Ilan Lord John Russell. The deceased nobleman was the second son of the late Duke of Bedford, but he was born during the lifetime of the preceding Duke ; his father, therefore, was then known as Lord John Russell, because, though he eventually succeeded to the dukedom, he was not the eldest son of his house. Lord George Wil liam Russell, of whose life and character we now propose to give a brief account, has been usually called Lord William Russell, ever since the death of his uncle, who was murdered by Courvoisier. His Lordship was born in Harley-street, foraion, ou the Bth of May, 1790, and he had therefore at the time of his lamented death only just completed the 56th year of his age ;- his mother was the first wife of the late Duke, anti second daughter of George, fourth Viscount Torrington. Being destined for the military profession, a com mission was obtained for him at a very early age ; and he was gazetted as cornet in the Ist Dragoons on the sth of February, 1806, just three months before he had com pleted his 16th year; he was in a few months afterwards raised to the rank of a lieutenant, and entered upon the duties of active life some years earlier than the usual age at which }Naafis go to college. Of his scientific or classical attain ments there is therefore little to be related. But he pos sessed a competent knowledge of modern languages, and he derived from nature that which is far more valuable than any information which preceptors can communicate—a sub stantial fund of common sense. This quality a large inter course with camps and courts did not fail materially to extend and strengthen. When he had reached the age of 18 he was entrusted with the command of a troop in the 23d Dras goons. He served on the staff at the siege of Copenhagen in 1807, and embarked with the 23d Dragoons for Lisbon in 1809, where he landed with that regiment, anti accompanied them to the battle of Talavera, on which occasion he was wounded. At Cadiz he served as Aide-de-Camp to Lord Lynedoch, and he served subsequently as Aide-de-Camp to the Duke of Wel lington on several occasions ; amongst others, at the battle of Vittoria. To this enumeration of his services we may add that he was present at the storming of San Sebas tian, and that he accompanied the British army on its en trance into France, having been at the battles of Orthes and - Toulouse, for the latter of which he received a medal. The brevet of November, 1841, raised him to the rank of Major- General. Before the siege of San Sebastian he had ceased to be a cavalry officer, having obtained a majority in the 102 d Regimert of Infantry, and he became a Colonel by brevet in the month of April, 1814. The war being ended, be, of course, returned with the rest of the army, and continued in command of his regiment at its various quarters in England and Ireland, as well as at Corfu. He continued this some what listless sort of life until his political friends got into power in 1830. Whatever might have been thought amidst the select circle of his intimate acquaintance, the world at large had no reason to suppose that he p's sessed any talents to fit him for diplomatic life; but Lent John Russell was then Paymaster of the Forces, and the influence of the house of Bedford, quite in the ascendant; Lord W. Russell, therefore, attached himself; with every prospect of success, to one of our most important tbreign embassies, that of Sir Robert Moir, who represented England in the Netherlands during that struggle between Holland and Belgium which ended in placing King Leopold upon the throne of the latter country. Every one remembers that there was not cnly much negotiation, but some fighting upon that occasion, and the military experience of Lord W illiam Russell proved a valuable adjunct to the skill in ne gotiation for which Sir Robert Adair had been justly cele brated. As the results of those proceedings belong more to the history of Europe than to a personal narrative, we may proceed to state that this debut of Lord William Russell as a diplomatist proved so successful that in the following year he was sent on a special mission to Lisbon, the ob ject of which was to assist in arranging the differ ences which prevailed among the members of the house of Braganza, and to endeavour to restore that public tranquillity, the enjoyment of which is unfor tunately of ten interrupted in Portugal; this mis sion was not terminated until the month of March, 1834 ; he then spent about six months in England. In the month of September following his return from Portugal be received the appointment of Minister Plenipotentiary at Wurtemburg, which lie held till November, 1835, when he succeeded Lord pinto as British Ambassador at Berlin, and at that Court he represented the British Government till, on the accession of Sir Robert Peel to power in September, 1841, he resigned, and was succeeded in that important office by Lord Burg hersh, now Earl of Westmoreland. He had received the civil Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath in 1838 for his diplo matic services, and in 1841 the order of Leopold of Belgium (let class). As he had never shown, or at least never culti vated, the talents which secure Parliamentary distinction, he did not, on resigning his embassy, seek to obtain a seat in the House of Commons; so that, since the close of the last Melbourne Ministry, he was not called upon to participate in public affairs. For some time past he had been very se riously indisposed. It was, we believe, at Genoa, whither he had gone for the benefit of his health, that the deceased no bleman breathed his last.— Times. AT THE MILITARY FLOGGING HOUNSLOW. HOUNSLOW, WED4XSDAY EvENENG.--Shortly after the ad journment of the inquest on Monday last, and just as the coroner and deputy-coroner had quitted the George the Fourth Inn, Hounslow-heath, an occurrence took place which had well nigh ended in a most serious riot. It appears that as Farrier-Major Critton and Farrier Evans, who had attended the inquest and prOduced the cat-o'-nine tails with which the flogging had been inflicted before the jury, were returning to the barracks, while proceeding up the lane leading from the George the Fourth inn to Houns low barracks, they were addressed by some agricul tural labourers at work in a field on the side of the lane, who called out to the soldiers, " How's that affair gone off ?" Farrier. Major Critton immediately replied by using language of an irritating nature, which was followed by a stone thrown by the soldiers, upon which one of the civilians, named El ridge, took up a brickbat and threw it with great violence at Farrier-Major Critton, which struck him on the right temple, inflicting a serious wound. Privates Sparkes and Pegg, who were following the farriers to the barracks, witnessed the occurrence, and seeing Elridge run off across the fields pursued him, and came up to him, and on seizing him a desperate encounter took place between Elridge and Sparkes, during which the former was most severely beaten. Fortunately, one of the officers of the 7th Hussars reached the spot and exercised his authority over the soldiers, while Mr. 11. Pownall, of Spring-grove, Hounslow, one of the local magikrates present at the inquest, who having heard of the disturbance had hurried to the spot, addressed the crowd, which had by that time assembled, and quietness was restored. Elridge was then given in charge to the police for the assault on Farrier-Major Critton, and was conveyed to the station-house of the T division, of the metropolitan police in tiounslow. On Tuesday forenoon Elridge was brought up for exami nation before Messrs. H. Pownall and 13. J. Armstrong, the sitting magistrates, at New Brentford, when, after a patient investigation of upwards of an hour, the charge against Elridge was dismissed, on the ground that Farrier-Major Critton had given great provocation by using the improper language he did, and throwing the stone, and that Elridge had been greatly punished in his encounter with Sparkes and Pegg. It will be remembered that the inquest was adjourned on Monday last, for the purpose of having the body of the dead soldier (which was buried on the afternoon of Friday last with military honours, in the presence of an immense assem blage of persons, in the churchyard of Heston Church) ex ' humed, in order that a further medical examination should be made, with a view to ascertaining the state of the spine- Yesterday (Tuesday), about six o'clock in the evening, Mr. Wakley's warrant for the disinterment of the body was re ceived by the Rev. H. Trimmer, the vicar, Messrs. Whitney and Harding, the churchwardens of Heston, and Brent, the coroner's summoning officer. At eight o'clock the digging of the grave was commenced,under the superintendence of the Rev. Mr. Trimmer, and from that hour until nearly eleven, o'clock at night the churchyard was surrounded by the in habitants of the village. This morning the preparations for the exhumation were continued. At a quarter to eleven o'clock, Mr. H. G. Day, of lsleworth, the surgeon selected by the coroner's jury to examine the body, arrived at the churchyard, accompanied by Mr. Erasmus Wilson lecturer on anatomy at University College, who had b een directed by Mr. Wakley to assist Mr. Day. They were received by the Rev. Mr. Trimmer and Mr. Churchwarden Harding. The coffin was raised and opened, and the examination commenced, the only persons permitted in the churchyard being the operators and their assistants, the police, and the parochial authorities. At twenty-five minutes to twelve o'clock a London street cab drove up to the churchyard entrance, containing Mr. Hall and Dr. Read, the surgeons of the military medical staff, by whom the first port mortem examinationof whtsbodY had been made, by direction of the Horse G uards, immediat alighting, entered the churchyard, but and Dr. Read appeared were informed that, no met and stopped by Sergeant Jocks ,tvo.loppearri absolutely li l a t n e y alyu p t il e h rso ecori pjeA n tie b a ut to tla sail t present at the a signed by Sir James much surprised, and ' they should be present, as they were directed to be ar s Y o b th y a a t two had surgeons operating, special order, which they produced, Coroner's. . 0 o iat rd st r l o an dri n . d o i t t t ju b r e .

Mr. Day explained the position in which they were placed by the Coroner's instructions, and read for their information the following instructiora which he had received from Mr. Wakley :7- "The Coroner directs that no medical gentleman but Mr. Day should attend your examination. This is peremptory, and your authority for excluding all others. " G. J. MILLS, Deputy-Coroner." ollowing instructions he had received:— . Brent, the Coroner's summoning officer, also read Th e body,W e 1 n Take the enclosed order to the persons directed therein, viz., Rev.

Mr. 'Wilson has orders to exclude every person but Mr. Day, unless it be some one to assist with a bucket, water, sponge, cloth, &c. " J. MILLS, Deputy Coroner "35, Bedford-square, July 21." The military surgeons said they must of course bow to the authority of the Coroner, and requested to have a copy of the above instructions, in order that they might adduce them before the Horse Guards' authorities as the reason they were not present at the examination, which being furnished them, they at once returned to town in the cab. The examination Of the body was then proceeded with by Messrs. Wilson and Day, and occupied upwards of two hours. The body was, as may be supposed, in a greatly advance 9 state of decomp os iti on .
