The Chief Commissioner said Brown did not ap pear to have voted at all in 1859. Witness said the man had £l5, nevertheless ; so had Turrell. Witness received the money which he paid away in 1859 from Mr. W. Green. He had no more than £45 from Mr - . Green. He did not recol lect " doing" anything at the election of 1857. He did not receive any money from Mr. Green then. He never heard that Mr. Green had any money at that election. Lummis never told him how much money he received for distribution in 1865, or to whom he had given money. Robert Barnard, a mariner, engaged in looking after a floating light vessel, said ho received £lO at the last elec tion. He was paid the £lO at Mr. Fill's office. He went there with Cotton—a man engaged in attending to another floating light. Witness was sent to Mr. Fill by Mr. Clowes, solicitor. He and Cotton had made out a bill, and Mr. Clowes told them to go to Fill's to be paid. The money was paid foi expenses on shore. Mr. Brogden told witness that he should be paid his expenses, as witness and Cotton said they should not otherwise stop on shore. Mr. G. Moore paid witness and Cotton the money at Mr. Fill's office. Fill himself was not present. Had witness not remained on shore he would have had charge of the Lemon and Ower light vessel ; in his absence he had to pay other men to assist him, and he had only £6 Os. 6d. left out of the £lO. His wages went on as usual during his absence. Two or three other men received money in the same way as wit ness. One of them was named 'Wm. Miller ; John Robin son was another, and Wm. Littlewood another. Fill asked witness what his expenses would be when on shore, and whether £lO would cover everything. Witness said that it would. Witness was canvassed by Sir E. Lacon and Mr. Goodson, but declined to vote for them. Both Sir E. Lacon and Mr. Goodson wanted to detain witness on shore Witness understood that his expenses would be paid. He should not have remained on shore to vote for anybody without payment of his expenses; he could not afford to so. Mr. Fitzgerald—Do you consider that the £6 which you put in your pocket was a bribe or not ? Witness—Well, I cannot say ; I leave that to you, gen tlemen. I took no part in the election of 1859. I had no vote then. RUPTURES.—BY ROYAL LETT MRS PATENT.

He received £lO from Mr. Fowler, but it was for the use of his rooms in the market place. His rooms were used for electioneering purposes. They were engaged from the 20th of June .to the 10th of July. There were two rooms. While they were let he used them as he liked. Mr. Fowler and others came to the rooms. Witness voted for Brogden and Vanderbyl ; he promised them his support as soon as they came to the town. There were Liberal com mittee-rooms on the'opposite side of the market-place, and within 20 yards. Witness paid £3O a year for his house, and let off part for £2O. Witness was canvassed by Mr. Goodson, but refused to support him. Witness voted for Watkin and Lacon in 1859.

THOIIAS ROWELL. Director of Contracts. Mr. Russell said ho was put down in the poll-book as having voted for Lacon and Stracey. Witness said he believed he voted for Watkin and Lacon. Ho received no inducement to influence his vote in 1859, nor did he let his rooms then. (Laughter) He paid £3O a year for his house, but it was assessed at £9 10s. Upon his oath ho paid .£3O a year rent. Mr. Russell—lf you believe that, Ido not. Robert Johnson, a carpet warehouseman, said he received nothing for his vote at the last election, but did not vote at all. Mr. Fitzgerald said he thought there must have been some mistake made as to this witness. Somebody appeared to have drawn money iu his name. Witness thought so too. lie was a Liberal in politics, but abstained from voting out of regard for Sir E. Lacon, both at the last election and in 1859. Peter Adamson, a fishcurer, statod that he received £5 a the last election from a stranger at the Angel. lie was told to go to the Angel by Miles Juler. Ho understood it was for his day's wages. John Davies, a lodging-house keeper, stated that he re- cPived .E2O for his vote at the last election. He received the money at the "Army and Navy" Tavern. A ticket was given to hitu by Mr. T. Fox, a builder. In 1859 be had no vote. Henry Barubt idge, a jeweller, stated that he received ,£l5 for his vote at the last election from G. Humphreys, of Gaol-street. The money was given to him to induce him to vote for the Liberals. He received nothing from the other party. In 1839 he had no vote. William Balls, a publican, denied that he had been bribed at the last election ;ho did not vote. He was canvassed, and lie promised that he should not vote on either side, (Laughter.) Ile never took a farthing as a bribe in his life, Ile voted in 1859 and 1857. _ _ _ Ir. Fitzgerald said somebody bad drawn £l5 of Mr. Brogdon's money in this witness's name. Thomas Daffell, a greengrocer of George-street, said ho received £l5 at the " Angel" at the last election. He did not know who pail him. He was not offered money on the Conservative side, but was canvassed by Sir E. Lacon. In 1859 he had no vote. 'Mr. J. Mainprice, a wino and spirit merchant, said he took but little part in the last election. Ile did not canvass. He attended some committee me etin g s at the "Angel" just before the election. He was anxious that a contest should be avoided if possible. Ho h ad taken au active part in pre vious elections, and was a nxious that similar scenes should be avoided in future. If a contest took place he foresaw that bribery would have to be resorted to. He did not attend any meeting at the " Angel" at which the question of bribery was discussed. He signed, he believed, the requisition in viting Messrs. Brogden and Marsham to come forward. Witness knew nothing of the ticket system, but could not shut his eyes to the fact that bribery was carried on at the last election. At the election of 1859 he kept the canvass book for the Liberals, and he would now hand it in. Some money also passed through his hands in 1859. He was sent for to the "Star" two or three days before that election. He left his greatcoat in one of the rooms at the "Star" Hotel, and then went into another room, where there were several of the heads of the Liberal party. On coming out again he found something very heavy in his coat pocket—parcels of gold. (Laughter.) The parcels passed from his hands to those of Mr. a Steward. Witness was rather annoyed at the use which had been made of him, but was prevailed upon to take the parcels to his own house. Ho never knew the value of the parcels. He purposely avoided inquiring. He afterwards received some other parcels at his house a few days before the election. Witness had an impression that Mr. H. Hammond was present at the " Star" at the time, but he had since stated that he was not. Some strangers were present at the " Star" on the occasion in question. Mr. Livingston received from witness a part of the money entrusted to him. The money all passed through the hands of Mr. Steward and Mr. Livingston. The cash was tied up in wash-leather bags. Each parcel probably contained from £4OO to £5OO. Witness received other money in paper and cash by private hands. He never knew the amount, except as a matter of guesswork. He also received throe cheques drawn by Mr. A. W. Young, one of the Liberal candidates. They were upon a London bank, and were payable to bearer, but witness did not know their amounts. Two of the cheques he gave to Mr. Livingston ; the other he destroyed in the presence of Mr. Young. Witness had discussed the pro spects of the 1859 election with Messrs. Watkin and Young.. He had no reason to think that the sum which he found in his coat pocket came exclusively from Mr. Watkin. His opinion was that the Liberal candidates in t 1859 shared the expenses equally, but ho purposely k t oP e himself ignorant on the subject. He believed that at il election of 1859 bribery commenced two or three a . Liberals was going on on the Conservative side and th. be fore the day of polling. The impression was t tthhetdbribOrY he found that which ho received from Mr. Young, bee:lbis; the Conserva tive too late in the field. He destroyed the third cheque certain "shaky" voters had been poll , what sum would to the Liberals.

It was reported that the that they Conservatives spent money in 1857, but if a contrary state ment had been made lip had no means of contradicting it. No proposition was made to him at the Star before the elec tion of 1859 that ho should take the money away ; had such a proposition been made to him he should have declined it. He returned to the second take the money away, but ho afterwards gave way to the influence of the gentlemen present. He could not say who the gentlemen were. He was sent for to the Star on " urgeht business," but he afterwards found that this was a mere pretext, and that what ho' was really wanted for was to take money away to Mr. C. Steward, who was known to be an active partisan. Thomas Coleman, a cab proprietor, of St. George's-road, stated that he had £2O from George Watson to vote for the Conservatives. He received no other bribe. In 1859 Le had no vote. Thomas Bee, a shoemaker, who gave his evidence with much Solemnity, denied receiving a bribe, He voted for ..------ ~--• ':, F. --:... -; , t -- .

He did not tell Mr. Watkin in 1859 that he had been engaged as a clerk at a previous election and had not been paid. Henry Gooch, a grocer, stated that he received £l5 from a stranger at the Angel. He was sent there by T. Fox, a builder. In 1859 he had no vote. Thomas E. Grey, at{ ironmonger, of King-st•teet, denied that he had received a bribe. He voted for Lacon and Goodson.

M present nearly . 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the enly condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing 4the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will yon help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ?

Great Yarmouth Election Commission, GREAT YARMOUTH, Oct. 4. After the despatch of the parcel yesterday John Quinton, a sailmaker, on the register as Henry Quinton, stated that he received £l5 at the last election to vote for Brogden and Vanderbyl. He received the money from Downing. He was offered money to vote for Lacon and Goodson, but declined it. In 1859 he had no vote. John Francis, a twine spinner and ropemaker, stated that he received £2O at Wright's. In 1859 he had no vote. William Ling, who described himself as of no trade or occupation, said he took no part in the elec tion. He was not aware that be was on the Con servative committee. He asked a few voters to support the Conservatives in 1859. He heard that there was a good deal of bribery going on on the Liberal side, as Mr. Brogden was said to be very rich. Among those who distributed money in 1859 were George King and a man named Randle. A friend of witness's named Lowne, who had promised Lacon and Stracey in 1859, was offered money by Mr. W. T. Clarke (now dead) to vote for Watkin and Young, but he refused to break his word. Charles Veale, a gardener, stated that he had £l5 to vote for Brogden and Vanderbyl. He received the money from " Jones." Robert S. Archbold, a baker, stated that he re ceived £l5 at the "Army and Navy" Tavern. He was promised £lO by. Cooper a fortnight before the eleotion, but he would not vote on the Conser vative side. He told Mr. Livingston that he would vote without money for Brogden and Vanderbyl. He had £lO in 1859 to vote for Watkin and Young. The money was put in his hat, which was left on the counter. Abel Ward Wrightman, a publican, said he had £l5 from Charles Bunn. In 1859 he had no vote. There was a committee-room at his house. The bill, which amounted to £9 or £lO, was paid by Mr. W. C. Reynolds. Various persons came to the rooms who were voters. Dr. Harmer and Mr. Diver used the rooms. Bunn and J. Hammond were frequently there. He could not give the names of the voters to whom Rivett gave money. Rivett attended the rooms. Mr. J. H. Harrison, recalled, deposed that he did not give a list to Cooper ; he only mentioned names incidentally in conversation. Among the names he gave were Charles Botwright and William Smith. He was fully aware that during the past 15 years Cooper had been engaged in bribery. Botwright was a bad man, and had taken bribes before. He came to witness and said he was sorry for what he had done on previous occasions, and that he would not take money again. Witness understood him and said nothing. A man named Wm. Smith told witness what he wanted, when he lectured him on the impropriety of his conduct. (A laugh.) Smith got nothing out of witness. Daniel Larke, a tailor, stated that he had £2O at the " Army and Navy" Tavern. He was offered £l5 by Cooper, but did not take it. That was be fore he received an offer from the Liberal party, to which he belonged. He should have voted for Brogden and Vanderbyl without the £2O. In 1859 he had no vote. Joseph Wright, a fishcurer, stated that he had £2O at his own house. He received the money from Mr. Shattock to vote for the Liberals. Edward Wright, a beachman, stated that he had £l5 at his own house. Newman, the tailor, gave him the money to vote for the Liberals. In 1859 he had no vote. EdWard Crewe, a coal porter, said he had £lO from Cooper to vote for the Conservatives. In 1859 be had no vote. Henry Soanes said he had received £2O at Wright's to vote for the Liberals. He had also £2O from Watson to vote for the Conservatives, and he voted for Lacon and goodson. He took the £2O from the Liberals, because he had not then made up his mind for whom he should vote. In 1859 he was not on the register. Mr. Russell—lt is a great pity you had a vote in 1856. (Laughter.) Thomas H. Clements, a publican, said he had received £2O at Thompson's, and he was sent there by Edward's, the tailor. He was offered £l5 by B]yth, a painter, to vote for the Conservatives, but he refused it. He should not have vote d for the Liberals. George Burton, a fisherman, said he received £lO from E. R. Edwards to vote for the Liberals. He received no offer from the Conservatives. In 1859 he had no vote. Thomas W. Moss, a beachman, stated that he had £l5 " off " Nockolds. He was offered £25 by a stranger to vote for Brogden and Vanderbyl ; he refused the money as he had pledged his word on the other side. In 1859 he had no vote. If no money had been offered he should have voted for the Liberals. Any man was his man. (Laughter.) Mr. J. Clowes, solicitor, who was appointed the legal agent for the Liberals, stated with regard to the payments by him to Savory, of the Steam Packet Hotel, that Savory's rooms were hired, by a signed agreement, for £l2 125.. Witness denied that he had paid Savory £2 more than he bad asked. The contract was entered into between him and Savory before he was appointed agent. He never inquired what Savory's politics were with regard to the elec tion itself. Witness was present at the meeting at which Mr. Marsham determined to retire. Although the negotiation for azcompromise failed, Mr. Brog den resolved to go to the poll when he had found a colleague in the room of Mr. Marshman, although it was seen that the election could not be won by illegal means. When Messrs. Brogden and Marsh man were invited to stand, witness wrote to Mr. E. Watkin, who had previously been asked to come for ward, requesting him to fully explain to them the corrupt state of the borough. He was not cognisant of the manner in which money was spent. He deeply regretted the manner in which Mr. Brog den had been fleeced of his money, which had been given away without any system, to whoever asked for it. As to Cooper's and other state ments with respect to Messrs. Mellor and Young furnishing £1,500 for their unopposed election in 1857, it was not true. They never spent anything, except in legal expenses. It was not true, also, that money had been brought down in oyster barrels to carry Watkin's and M'Cullagh's election in 1857. When witness sent in the accounts to the returning officer (Mr. Steward), he said " Clowes, why did you not send in your accounts in a more handsome way ?

" Our Berlin correspondent," says the Patrie, " has forwarded to us an analysis of the reply which the Prussian Government has made to the Circular of M. de Valette, dated September 16. This reply has been drawn up in the form of a despatch, and was addressed on September 25 to the Prussian Ambassador in Paris by M. de Thiel, Under-Secre taryraeblsaetninege o to f t c h o e n A n l t in ß is is tr rn y a o r f k. Foreign K ingAffairs during the of State, charged with the conduct of affairs William says the Prussian Government has experienced the greatest satisfaction upon reading the Circular of the French Government. His Majesty having perceived in that important document the, wisdom of the Emperor and a continuance of that goodwill which had caused the King to hope that, in order to judge of such great events and to appreciate their necessary con sequences, the Emperor would be able to consider them from an elevated point of view. This eleva tion of sentiments has enabled the Emperor to un derstand the exigencies of the political situation in which Prussia found herself, to do justice 'to the legitimate aspirations of the German nationality,' and to declare that the new order of things esta blished in Central Europe constituted no, danger to France, but was a guarantee for continental peace. Have I occasion to tell you,' adds de Thiel, that when each nation this a t v t i h e e w toifmtehehsausbjpenestsiesdalas: ay y urs—that we believe sought its own strength in the weakness and the dependent condition of its neighboura, and when any consolidation or increase -of power by the union of populations having the same customs and the same national spirit were viewed with distrust ?' The writer of the despatch points out that the line of conduct pursued by the Emperor during and after the events of the war is a proof of the sentiments by which his Majesty is animated with regard to the work 'of the internal consolidation of Ger many.' It is alp to the wisdom of the Emperor that Europe owes that one of the most difficult questions, which threatened to throw the whole Continent into confusion, has found a solution alike prompt and satisfactory ; it is the Emperor who has greatly contributed to stave off the danger of a universal conflagration, and the explosion of revolutionary passions. The despatch subsequently points out that after such shocks as Germany has recently experienced, and which have modified its political configuration, a certain period of time is necessary for matters to rearrange themselves, but that the application of the great principles embodied in the Circular will greatly contribute to abbreviate that period of transition. What remains to be done longeri i s nt n e o rnal any more arrangement. than a work of peace and of Her edifice must be consoli dated. That is the work of a future, which is brought nearer to us by the mutual confidence whose reign the Emperor has inaugurated." A RARE FISII.—As some fishermen were looking over the bay at Falmouth with their glasses for the approach of pilchards, they were considerably astonished to see a strange fish at about low-water mark. Proceeding to the spot they managed to land it, after a long struggle, in which one of the men was rather seriously hurt by a stroke from the tail of the fish. It happened that Dr. Bullmore, of Falmouth, saw it brought to land, and he at once examined it. lie found that it measured 4 feet in length, and was more than a hundred pounds in weight. The whole surface of the bbdy—the fish being still alive— presented the appearance of highly polished silver, with a most brilliant coating of the richest scarlet. The silvery coating of the belly, as in the mackerel, presented a variety of evanescent tints, which could only be seen whilst the fish lived. Dr. Bullmore is strongly of opinion that it was a specimen of the scarlet and silver fish of the Mediterranean. About a month ago a scarlet and silver fish was seen at Gorrhaven, but that seems to have dif fered in size from that caught at Falmouth.—lVestern Morning News. THE BAVARIAN PRISONERS.—The Nuremberg Correspondent announces that all the Bavarian officers and soldiersit prisonersby the Prussians are d by eg who had degrees, as beenth m ey a r d e e turn to their country, to appear cited d before a council of war to justify themselves for the fact of having been taken by the enemy. In addition, several superior officers will have to give an account before a mili tary tribunal of their conduct during the last campaign. THE NEW FRENCH BREECH-LOADER,. This gun is the invention of M. Antoine Alphonse Chassepot, Head Viewer of Military Arms in Paris. It is a modification of the Prussian needle-gun ; the action is the same throughout in principle, greatly improved in detail. The result is an arm in every respect superior. The opening of the breech is effected, as in the needle-gun, by a plunger, drawn backward and forwards within the cavity of the breech by means of a lever projecting from it, which engages in a notch prepared to receive it when ready for use. In the Prussian gun no special pro vision is made to prevent th e esca p e o f gas pas t th e plunger—this i a s accomplishedbci erwhich placed h au d sr ao b f a t orp nl es h d oe r n h f u o vu f tl a t e h n e C p hi se un e da s s g uP er ° , d i tarl inb the axis of the plun ger , b e hi n d a stee l p l ate wh i ch f motion backwards. The plate is driven back by the force of the explosion upon the indiarubber pressing it out so as so fill up the barrel, thus rendering it gastight. Of the three wads forming the cushion, the centre one is more elastic than the upper and lower, but allare harder than ordinary vulcanised indiarub ber. The three wads together are about 7-16ths of an inch thick. The gun is fired by a sharp-pointed steel needle, driven by a coiled spring of wire passing through the centre of the plunger. The cocking is effected as in the Prussian gun, by drawing back the tube containing the needle, but the arrangement is much simplified, and by mean of notches ingeniously con trived it can be placed at half-cock. The cartridge exhibits an important modification of that of the Prussian gun. In the latter the fulminate is placed at the base of a papier mache wad on which the bul let rests; the needle consequently has to penetrate through the powder before exploding the charge ; this exposure to the flash soon injures the needle. In the Chassepot gun the fulminate is at the base of the cartridge, as in the English Boxer cartridge, but in other respects the arrangement is materially dif ferent from the Boxer. The fulminate is placed in a flanged copper cap of small size, having two holes at the bottom to permit the passage of the flame to the powder. The cap is placed with its mouth towards the needle, in a paper wad, in the centre of which is a hole of a suitable size for its reception. The flange of the cap resting on the wad gives the necessary resistance to the blow of the needle. This wad forms the bottom of the cartridge. A thin piece of paper covers the end of the cartridge and the mouth of the cap; the needle has only to penetrate the paper be fore entering the cap. The weight of the bullet is 386 grains, charge of powder 55 grains, the total length of cartridge 21in. The diameter of the cart ridge is 3-16ths of au inch larger than the bore of the barrel, the latter being .432 inch, or less than 7-IGths of an inch. Th e breech end of the barrel for the length of about 3; in. is opened wider than the bore, tapering by steps from of an inch at the face of the plunger to the size of the bore, -432 inch. Projecting from the face of the plunger is a tube 5-16ths of an inch outside diameter and about I of an inch long, through which the needle passes. The base of the cartridge when in the chamber rests against the end of this tube; between the cartridge and the face of the plunger there is therefore an empty space round the projecting tube. The object of this space is to effect the combustion and removal of any portion of the cartridge case that may remain after firing. The wad containing the cap must necessarily remain, and requires removal before the next cartridge can be inserted. The weight of the gun without the bayonet is 81b. 15 oz. ; the total length, 51in. The bore of the barrel is -432 in. It is rifled with four grooves, having one turn in 21fin. We have here a close approximation to the system of Mr. Whitworth, whose bore, as is well known, is .451 in., the grooves having a turn in 20in. The system is not applicable to the conversion of exist ing guns, and as it is a difficult and costly gun to make, it must be a work of time to obtain the neces sary supply for arming the French forces. We have expressed the opinion that this arm is throughout its details in every way superior to the light model from which it is imitated, the Prussian needle-gun. When compared with the Sneider gun, adopted for the English service, it is behind it in simplicity, rapidity, and freedom from liability to derange ment. Its light bullet and small charage cannot equal in range and execution the 530 grain bullet, propelled by 70 grains of powder, of the Boxer car tridge; nor is the cartridge impervious to wet, like the Boxer, which is found to be effective even after_ n being steeped in water for a length of tiree• the other hand, this lighter charge French soldier to carry 90 cartridges, weighing no more than the Englishman's GO. is a oint that P oint well deserve the consideration o f our authori ties of the War-office. e nab!es the THE COAL QUESTION —THE PARIS CITY DUES. —The question of t hese dues (lee droits d'octroi) is again attracting considera ble attention so far as they affect coal; and in an elabo rate article in the 3loniteur Indus?lel Mr. Alexander Durant carefully discusses the whole subject. Th e Paris city clues aro fixed at 7f. 20c. (65.) per ton of 1,000 upo n the entry of coal into France is but if.

Those suburbs c., have become have an nexed, and at the time of the annexation since been it was conceded that for seven years business established in them should pay only the minimum dues then before being ann exe d . The seven years has now nearly existing in the communes ex pired, and it is rumoured that th 7 after Dec. 31. next the City of Paris intend s t o levy the frs. 20c. per ton indiscriminately; which, in the case :f er some works, will bo equivalent to a surcharge of .£l,OOO annum; but u the hope is expressed tbat this inte n ti on will i not be carried that ther e are t wo means of chargingt I the ti s remarked that transitory state of affairs now existing—by including all according to the rumour, and by, as suggested by the Journal des De bats, abolishing the impost altogether. Mr. Durant favours the latter course, and argues that Paris is a manufacturing city, and that therefore the argument that it should be con tinued, because "to exempt coal would be to favour the developemont of great industrial establishments in Paris which should be a city of luxury, the metropolis of arts and civilisation," is not tenable. The suppression of the octroi upon coal at Paris would not, he contends, relieve Parisian industry alone, since smaller towns, which have imitated Paris in levying it, would probably follow the ex ample set in its abolition.—Mining Journal.
