A collision, attended, we regret to say, with loss of life, occurred in the Channel yesterday morning. From all that can at present be learned, it appears that about two o'clock yesterday morning, wnen the screw steamer Aleppo, Capt. Langland, bound from Constantinople to this port, was about two miles south-west of Bardsey Island, the men on the look-out sighted a vessel ahead, though the stranger was showing no light. A dense fog immediately coining on, the look-out on the Aleppo lost sight of the schooner, and the steamer continued her course. In about half an hour afterwards, and while the fog still hung, a terrible crash occurred and the top-gallantmasts of the steamer were snapped by the force of the shock. It was soon ascertained that the Aleppo had struck the schooner fairly amidships, cutting into her like a knife. The schooner went down immediately, the only sound heard being the piteous cry of a child. When it ceased all was as silent as if no such catastrophe had taken place. The boats of the Aleppo were lowered in less than three minutes, and continued to pull round the scene of the disaster for some hours, but failed to pick up any of the people who had been on board the schooner. A head-board, on which was painted " Charles Edwards," a bed, a blanket, and a bag of corn were, however, found. That was all. The schooner carried with her when she sank every soul on board. The ill-fated vessel belonged to Chester, and when the collision took place was bound from Duddon to'Cardiff with a cargo of copper ore. Captain Langland states that when the collision took place his vessel was under a full head of steam and a fair but stiff breeze, and that he did all that could be done to save life, but unfortunately failed. An indisposition of the Elector of Hesse has in spired within the last few day some disquietudes, now partially dissipated. He was suffering from a gastric fever complicated with an attack of gout. rADVERTISEMENT.I—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills._ The Knife Supersoded.—All afflicted with ulcers, diseases of the bone, and inflammation of the joints should read this testimonial to the curative powers of these healing and purifying remedies. Mr. John Allen, 17, Denmark-street, Leicester, suffered severely with a bad foot for three years, during which long period he was under surgical treatment without any perceptible benefit. He resolutely objected to amputation, which seemed the only course open, till he p rov identially tried Holloway's remedies. These gave him great relief, and at last completely cured him. Spots, blemishes, sores, and skin diseases, arising from impo verished blood or a reckless course of life, may be remov e d by the judicious use of Holloway's ointment and pills. The French Fleet at Portsmouth. PORTSMOUTH, Aug. 31. More splendid than the dinner on board the Duke of Wellington, because given on a grander scale, was the banquet at which the Admiralty enter tained the officers of the French fleet last evening. The spacious tent in which it was served, and which to-morrow night is to do the duty of a ball-room, stands, as has been already stated, in one of the quadrangles of the College, and is reached through the entrance-hall of the College itself, a substantial and rather handsome building. The approach to this building from the dockyard is about a quarter of a mile irk length, and along each side of it poles were erected, from the loops connecting which hundreds of Chinese lanterns, shed ding lights of carious hues, wet' displayed. On the plot of green sward in front of the College, whose ordinary decoration consists simply of a few beds containing shrubs and evergreens, innumerable small oil lamps, hung on fine thread, running round and round again from slender rods, so as to take iu the whole surface of the sward, twinkled brightly within a foot or two from the ground. Similar lights simi larly placed glittered also all over the surface of the larger piece of green sward, which lies a little further from the College on theioft of the approach to it, and were surmounted 14 ft-coronet of lights encircling the statue which stands in its centre. Over the entrance-porch of the building was an illuminated circle, in the middle of which the flags of England and France were represented twined together, and topped by a crown. On each side of it were two brilliant stars, with a somewhat similar device. The steps leading to the hall were covered with crimson cloth, which extended all the way to the banqueting-room and down its centre. The tent-like roof of the room, which at its apex is 36ft. from the ground, as well as its walls, were covered with a fine calico, broadly striped with red, white, and blue.. On the outside three coverings of canvas and waterproof cloth rendered the tent impervious to rain. Ten magnificent chandeliers, dependent from the ridge-pole at the apex, and hanging at short intervals down the centre, along its whole length of 165 ft., with as many more on each side, and numberless wax candles, filled the room with a flood of light. Flowers and shrubs and plants lent their beauty and their fragrance to a scene which, when 150 guests, almost every one of whom was in full naval or military uniform, was indescribably dazzling. The Duke of Somer set presided at the banquet, having on his right—the French and English guests being in alter nate order—the French Minister of Marine, M. de Chasseloup-Laubat, SirM. Seymour, Admiral Guey don, Sir F. Grey, Admiral Jurien de la Graviere, Admiral Sir L. Curtis, Admiral de la Ronciere, Rear-Admiral Drummond, Admiral Saisset, Sir S. Dacres, the Aumonier, and Mr. Childers. On the left of the Duke sat Admiral Bouß-Willaumez, Sir R. Buller, Admiral Page, Lord C. Page, Admiral Paris, Sir F. Cochrane, Admiral Fabre, Rear-Ad miral Eden, Admiral Pothuan, Admiral Wellesley, Dupuy de Lome, and Mr. Romaine. The other guests included the chief officers of the allied fleets, Ser geant Gazelee (one of the members for Portsmouth), Mr. Whitworth, Sir C. Wyke, and the Russian Admiralßoutahoff. The banquet was admirably and sumptuously served ; and, when grace had been said, The Duke of SOiIERSET rose and spoke as fol lows : "I am desirous, on behalf of the British Admiralty, to tender our sincere thanks to the Minister of Marine and the authorities in the harbours of Brest and Cherbourg for the kindness and hospitality with which they received us when we recently visited those ports. I may add that the plea sure which we derived from our visit to the French coast was greatly enhanced by the kind feeling which was / shown towards us not only by the inhabitants of those tolms, but by the great numbers of the French people by whom they were crowded, during our stay. I rejoice in these inter national visits, because I feel the great advantage of a meet ing of the officers of the two services. Hereafter when they meet, in whatever part of the world it may be, they will be able to look back with satisfaction to their visits to the harbours of Cherbourg and Portsmouth, which I trust will tend to strengthen those feelings of cordial friendship which subsist between the two Governments and the two nations. I am happy to avail myself of this opportunity to return our sincere thanks for the readiness with which the admiral and officers of the French navy came to the aid of the sufferers on board the Bombay when that line-of battle ship was destroyed by fire. The French officers and sailors supplied them with clothes, relieved their wants, and mitigated by every means in their power that great disaster. Such acts of charity and kindness must bind the two services together by the ties of friendship and command the gratitude of the British nation. Animated by those feelings, I am confident that every Englishman is prepared to concur with me when I assure the officers of the French navy that we bid them a hearty welcome. Following the courteous example which was set at Cherbourg, I beg to give you the first toast, the " nealths of the Emperor, the Empress, and the Prince Imperial." The toast was drunk with marked enthusiasm, the whole of the company rising, as were the others by which it was succeeded. M. DE CHAS SELOUP 'ALMA; in proposing g , The Health of her Majesty the Queen," said— Messieurs,—Ce sont d'heureux joursque ceux dans les quels les officiers des marines de la Grande Bretagne et de la France peuvent apprendre hse connaitre h s'appr6cier.

Mais, Messieurs l'esprit se rassure en sonpant qua l'humanite a d'autani moths h craindre de la force quo les moyens dont la force dispose sont plus puissants, parceque plus daastreux l'em ploi en devient aussi de jour en jour plus rare. L'esprit se rassure surtout parcequ'il sait qui pour les nations civilisees la force c'est la moderation ; c'est le respect de droit. Je remercie le noble Due de Somerset de ce vient de dire des soins que dans La Plata une de nos divisions a 6t6 assez heureuse pour donner aux marina du Bombay ; seulement sea siu paroles r m 7 b a Ce quo nous avons f o t t o r B abnegatio n leiderso u s qui, em u de vous le fait tous i b. le faire sans cease, ltez-moi de vous le dire, mom qui u'ai pas l'hon mtea: dinspeorcettec sent cuenir c d° otrno vous s p tan d c a ee t t es t e u h s pa e re s it l'hon neur de porter une epaulette , ce qu'il y a d'admirable chez l'homme de mer, ce qui to place si haut dans l'estime des es, c'est Ah ! c'est bien en cola quo n os marines sent scours, et en sce aussi elles vont acclamer le toast quo de bien grand b memo labl au prix de e. peupl sa ce vie, d e rveonutreatme touceju cceur je porte vo t r e Gracieuse Sou vera i ne—the Queen Victoria !" The following is a translation :.-- nnti Sir,—These are happy days in which the officers of the navies of Great Britain and France can learn to know and to appreciate one another. If the g m a e n et d in ß g ro o s n t e another—if the „ vi w si h t e s ou r y evre ha en v j e o p y a e i to enjoyed so so Da th u e e p h o g rt o s o o d f f o C rt h u er n b e ou fn r eager ness we have displayed in coming here to respond to your gracious invitation, testify to the excellent relations which subsist between our countries, these frank and friendly meetings are at the same time a sure guarantee of their among permanence the numerous ; for to, am sure of it, umero they will usbrave giveandi risellustrious sailors who hear me, the desire that we should see one another again, and at whatever points of the globe, or under whatever circum stances they may be placed, of grasping hands which have been so cordially extended in friendship during these festal days. Without reservation we exhibit to one another the progress which our respective navies have made ; we con ceal from one another nothing that can serve as the basis of still further progress. Together we have been enabled to study those admirable structures encased in thick cui rasses, which only a few years ago not the boldest imagi nation could have dared meditate. Together we have seen our formidable engines of war—those terrible instruments of destruction in the presence of which the mind pauses as if appalled, and is tempted to bring to account the genius that created them. But, gentlemen, the mind is reassured on reflecting that humanity has less io apprehend from force in proportion as the means of .which force disposes are more powerful ; because the more destructive are those means, the employment of them, also, becomes every day more rare. The mind comforts itself, above all, in the re flection that among civilised nations real force is modera tion and the respect of right. I thank the noble Duke of Somerset for what he has just said respecting those attentions which, in the Plata, one of our divisions was fortunate enough to render to the seamen of Bombay, only his expressions were too flattering. What we did under those circumstances, every ono of you is prepared unceas ingly to bestow ; for, permit me to say so—l who have not the honour to wear an epaulette—what is admirable in the seaman, and what places him so high in the esteem of nations, is that devotion, that self-abnegation, which, at the cost of his life, always impels him to aid his fellows. It is in that circumstance that our navies are indeed sisters ; and as sisters, too, they will acclaim the toast which, with the warmest heart, I offer to your gracious Sovereign. Sir M. SEYMOUR, in giving the next toast, said,— "I have the honour and great pleasure in using the privi lege conferred by my official position, to propose to you to drink to the health of the French Navy, represented as it is at this port by officers of the highest distinction and of eminent professional services, as well as the magnificent fleet now floating in these waters, which is exciting our ad miration and calling forth our voices of heartfelt welcome, not only from the officers of the British navy, but from the nation at large. Few naval officers have had better oppor tunities than myself of seeing and appreciating the skill and gallantry displayed by the French in various climes, and under circumstances el.uo common dangllr and -cliff= catty,- and the result has invariably been to command my admiration, respect, and esteem. It is therefore with the authority derived from experience of their high qualities that I call upon you to join me in drinking ' The health of the French Navy: " Vice-Admiral BOUET DE WILLAUMEZ followed, and said— " C'est avec un veritable bonheur que je me retrouve ici avec d'anciens et braves compagnons d'armes. Ile figurent aujourd'hui soit dans l'Amiraute, soit dans vos ports, soli h la teto de l'escardre do la Manche. Dais la mort, qui depuis quo nous nous sommes connus, a éclairs nos range, a frappe de nobles amis dont le souvenir m'est cher comme h vous. Avec eux j'ai toujours marche en parfaite commu naute de sentiments, et j'ose croire quo cette franche cor dialite n'a pas existe sans porter d'heureux fruits. Per sonne plus que moi n'a done plus apprecie la valour de votre noble marine, personne n'est plus heureux de l'amitie qui l'unit h, la nare. Enfin, Monsieur, personne ne lui porte avec plus de sincerite ce toast, Ala Marine de la Grande Bretagne.' " The following is a translation : Sir,—lt is with real good fortune that I find myself here once more among old and brave companions in arms. They figure at this time either in the Admiralty, in your ports, or at the head of the Channel fleet. Bnt death, which, since we knew one another, has thinned our ranks, has stricken some noble friends whose memory is dear to me as to yourselves. With them I have always lived in thorough community of sentiment, and I venture to believe that this frank cordiality has not existed without bearing happy fruit. No one, then, has more appreciated than I have the value of your noble navy; no one is more rejoiced at the friendship that unites it to our own ; and lastly, sir, no one offers to it with greater sincerity this toast, " The Navy of Great Britain." The company separated shortly after ten o'clock, the French and English officers to return to their ships through what was literally a sea of light; and the Minister of Marine, with his staff, and the Lords of the Admiralty to their respective quarters in the harbour on board the Reine Hortense and the Os borne. Just as the health of her Majesty had been proposed by the French Minister a signal for the commencement of an illumination of the fleet was given by the discharge of a rocket from the Victory and the firing of one of her guns. One is liable to exaggerate the effect of scenes, however pic turesque, made brilliant at night by a profusion of light, but no words could depict the surpassing bril liancy of the scene which followed instantaneously the last flicker of that rocket from the Victory. As if by magic, every ship in the allied fleets was illu minated. A salute of 21 guns was fired from the fleets, and as the echo of the last shot died away' every ship in the two squadrons was so illuminated, by means of red, white, and blue lights placed in every port, at both broadsides, and both yardarms, that the object which only a few moments before looked, even at a short distance, so grim and I shadowy became at once transformed into a ship of light, revealing to view the outline of her slen derest spar. Rockets were then sent up in clusters from the whole of the fleet, which, as they burst in the heavens, expanded into bouquets of red, white, and blue, and then gradually melted away in the still air, but only to be followed at short intervals by other clusters of rockets bursting and descending in an equally brilliant shower. As the long lights only burn for a couple of minutes, three were lighted in succession in each port, and as each set of lights died away, and the illumination seemed to be coming to an end, the full blaze of its splendour was again restored with the same magical rapidity with which it was first created. When the three sets of long lights were nearly burnt out a bouquet of 24 signal rockets was fired from each ship, and immediately after the fleet faded from the view of the thousands of spectators who lined the ramparts at Portsmouth, and all was comparative obscurity at Spithead. The illumination lasted for about 20 minutes, throughout the whole of which time the St. Vincent, the Duke of Wellington, and the other men-of-war in the harbour displayed lights at every porthole, causing the gentle ripple on the waves to sparkle like dia diamonds. The town itself was also most exten sively and brilliantly lit up during the night, the combination of the illumination of the houses near the dockyard gates with the magnificent illumina tion over the gateway itself shedding a radiance like that of a bright summer sun at noon on the roadway and the pavement below. A very grand spectacle could scarcely have been witnessed on a fairer night. This morning broke beautifully, but the sky in the course of the day became slightly overcast, not so much so, however, as to alarm the mayor and corporation of Portsmouth for the success of their fetes this evening. The forenoon was passed by the French and English officers for the most part in the interchange of friendly visits. By 2 o'clock an im mense crowd had assembled at the sally-port near the Grand Parade to see them land on their way to Governor's Green, where they will in a few minutes be partaking of the municipal hospitality. The Queen of the Sandwich Islands and Lady Franklin paid a visit in the course of the day on board the Solferino, DISCOVERY OF A STONE COFFIN AND SKELETON IN COLLEGE-GREEN, BRlSTOL.—Yesterday much interest was excited, and a large number of people attracted to Col lege-green, from the fact of its having become known that the men employed in excavating the road on the south side of the Green had come upon a stone coffin containing a hu man skeleton at a depth of about two feet from the surface. The lid of the coffin was gone, and five stone slabs had been placed over the coffin, apparently to protect the human re mains inside. The excavators unfortunately, in their zeal to discover some valuable treasure, proceeded to dig up the bones and earth which were in the coffin, and placed them in a heap. The bones were afterwards collected and put in a wooden coal-box, and then removed into a room ad joining the cloisters. The ribs were quite gone, but the skull, the vertebra of the neck and back, and the bones of the arms and legs, were in a state of preservation. From the circumstance of the coffin being found at so small a depth from the surface of the road, it is evident that there must have been a reinterment of the remains subsequent to the formation of the raised ground adjoining the Cathedral, which is supposed to have taken place in or about the thirteenth century. A large stone slab, broken in two pieces, was found near the same spot. It bore no inscrip tion, but the sides were ornamented with Norman tracery. —Western Daily Press. THE LANCASHIRE BUTCHERS.--On Monday 300 of the butchers of Preston, along with their wives, paid a visit to Knowsley, in compliance with an invitation given a short time ago by the lion. F. A. Stanley, M.P. The party were received most hospitably by Lord and Lady Derby. An excellent dinner was provided for the butchers: and their wives, at the request of the Countess, partook of tea at the hall. During the day Lord Derby joined the company, and expressed the pleasure he had felt in enter taining them. The butchers of Preston have long been stanch supporters of the Derby family, and whenever Lord Derby has visited Preston have always given him a most enthusiastic reception. When the Hon. F. A. Stanley made his entry into Preston at the late election, the same party were first and foremost in welcoming him to the place. PRICE 4d. STAMPED sd.' SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, NVEYMOITTII RACES.-THURSDAY. This meeting has gradually improved for the last fow years, under the management of an energetic committee, who seem determined to raise their gathering to a position worthy of, the town, and although a very old established meeting, it was not until Mr. Marshall's valuable services were obtained, three years since, that anything like a success was chronicled. The programme issued for the present year was far superior to any former one, and the fact that more than GO horses were announced as " arrived" in the morning testified to the growing popularity of the meeting, and providing the committee continuo their exertions, there is every probability of this pleasant reunion becoming one of the most important in the western circuit. The course is pleasantly situated within a mile of Weymouth, on Lodmoor, and no trouble is spared to render all the arrangements complete. The weather was fine during the eaarly part of tho afternoon, but towards the close of the sport the sky became clouded and the weather chilly. A large and fashionable company assembled, a great number of carriages being on the course and the ring was well patronised ; in fact, the meeting may fairly be termed a great success. The numerical strength of the fields generally was very good, and some capital sport witnessed, full details of which are appended.

LATEST BETTING ON THE COURSE. ST.

The report, an abstract of which has appeared in he Sun, was taken as read. • The CHAIIIMAN s v ', 4 0,72 o oQ9i er , zor ti e Bich he said include. a I at t directors . h a ei o lay before the proprietors, but v;buld give any ex planation on any point on which information might be required. The revenue, he was glad to say, was gradually progressing ; but it had not reached 3 per cent. per annum, now that one-seventh had to be paid to the preference shareholders. With refer ence to a paragraph in the report stating that Mr. Coleman put forth a claim to remuneration for his services in taking legal proceedings against the late directors of the company, he stated that he had re ceived a letter from that gentleman this day, asking that his application to the directors should be read at the meeting. The directors had no objection to this, and the letter referred to (which was then read) stated that, now the amalgamation of the company had been completed, Mr. Coleman deemed it a fit ting time to bring forward his claim, though he had hoped that a spontaneous offer on their part would have rendered such a course on his part unneces sary. It also stated that he had engaged in a most arduous struggle with the late directors, the result of which had put many thousands of pounds in the shareholders' pockets, and without that struggle this beneficial amalgamation with theNorth-Eastern could not have taken place. The chairman said he would have nothing to say in the matter, which was one entirely for the shareholders. Mr. T. DIBB, the deputy-chairman, seconded the adoption of the report, and referred in congratula tory terms to the conclusion of the long series of contests which the company had had. If the amal gamation had not taken place the company would have had to loo s k to purely West Hartlepool pro perty for any increase. The certainty of receiving a 4 per cent. guaranteed dividend must be satisfactory. Mr. COLEMAN then explained the long contest he had had with the late directors. Mr. JACKSON, in reference to Mr. Coleman's claim, defended the late directors. In reference to the pro posal to vote the directors the sum of £6,000, he said such a vote would involve the directors in a serious legal responsibility. The report was then carried unanimously. Mr. FARQUHAR proposed, and Mr. ADAMSON seconded, a proposition for giving the directors a honorarium of £6,000 among them as a token of the proprietors' gratitude for their services. A long discussion ensued, but the motion was carried by nearly two to oue. A vote of thanks to the chairman and directors concluded the proceedings. WEST RIDING AND GRIMSBY, On Wednesday, the Chairman (Mr. Rowland Winn) and several directors of this company in spected the Doncaster and Wakefield branch of this undertaking, in company with several friends and shareholders.

One bridge connected the line with the Great Northern Railway at Doncaster, and the other with the Lancashire and Yorkshire at Wakefield. The Great Northern would work both the branch and main line, and the Doncaster and Wakefield branch would shorten the distance between Wake. field and London by about seven miles. NEWRY AND ARMAGH.

Newry, Warrenpoint, and Ros trevor Railway Company, which reported the amount of the working expenses to be £1,192 for six miles of railway open, or £199 per mile.
