CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool, on Saturday, was steady. Sales, 5,000 bales at former prices. Railway Shires were firm, with a fair business doing, and prices had rather ash anted. We have some important arrivals to-day from East ad West. The overland mail furnishes interesting mercantile no vs from the different presidencies, and besides what app!ars in another column of The Sun, we may state that the account sales transmitted home . are much more favourable than they have been of late, and that both as to business done and prices obtained, the statements are encouraging. .With moderate shipments, and to order only, the Indian and China markets might again offer to the merchant and the manufacturer what they: have long ceased to afford, viz., a " living profit." Hitherto it has been, except to mere commission houses, one steady course of " loss, loss, loss," and the result has been shown in the downfall of firms once possessed of immense pecuniary resources. Money at Calcutta and Bombay was very easy, and the banks were affording accommodation, where satisfied with the security tendered, at lower rates than previously. The low figure for bills of exchange was a drawback, but the produce markets were expected to benefit by anything like a continuous demand for British manufac tires. In Ceylon the efforts of some ill-judging Europeans to excite the Kandians to dissatisfaction and non-payment of taxes, had resulted in an outbreak, which, at one period, was of a formidable bearing. The instigators were chiefly parties residing in maritime places, and the nbuddist priests. It is to be remembered that in 1817 the Kandians rebelled, when there was no question of excessive wits. The following brief account, will allay, however, the uneasiness that might be felt : "Happily but few lives have been lost owing to the ac tive measures taken by the authorities for the restora tion of order—about one hundred of the rebels have met their just fate from the fire of our soldiers, and above three hundred of all ranks, including aifair proportion far priests, await their trial for high treason. Two rebels have been already put to death by sentence of court martial—one of them the pretended King's brother— Was shot at Kornegalle, the second, Porong Appoo, a noted robber, was executed in Kandy a few days since, and the capture of the King (?) himself is daily ex pected. Our troops are scouring the country in all di rections, and the peace of the island may be considered as now definitively secured." The West India papers advert favourably to the west ' ther, the prospect of the crops, and the behaviour of the labourers; but trade was miserably dull, money very scarce, confidence at an unusually low ebb, and every. body e out of spirits." It was expected that the Legis lature would grant aid to the Planters' Bank. The Continental accounts received this morning still excite a feeling adverse to that of security, and it is 'feared there will be much trouble yet. The Bank of France return is more favourable. ' The Committee of Spanish American Bondholders have rt ceivel the following from Messrs. Manning and Mackintosh, under date Mexico, Aug. 12:—" We have the satisfaction to hand herewith a copy of an order issued -by then Minister of Finance to separate and pay over t'ae twenty per cent. belonging to the bondholders out of the duties collected by the Americans since the ratification of the treaty of peace. We are unable to Say by this packet the precise amount that has been re ceived by the Americans, and that will have to be divided, but we believe it to be from 300,000jt0 400,000 dollars. " In respect to the cotton: licenses, the ports of the republic having been until now in the possession of the Americans, it has of course been impossible to dispose in any way of these securities."

The half-yearly general meeting of the proprietors of the Newmarket Railway Company, adjourned from the 31st of last month, took place to-day at the London Tavern. Lord George Manners took the chair shortly after one o'clock, and the usual preliminary proceedings having been gone through, The SECRETARY read the following report:— " Since the special meeting of the company, held n the 27th March last, the committee appointed at that meeting, consisting of three directors and three pro prietors, bare used every exertion to y out the amal gamation which the proprietors at that meeting desired should, if possible, be effected with the Eastern Counties Railway Company. " The negotiation with the directors of the Eastern Counties Railway Company not having been concluded at the usual period for holding the half-yearly meeting of this company in August, your directors deemed it advisable to adjourn such meeting until the conclusion of the negotiation. " The agreements under the seals of the two com panies were exchanged on the 7th instant, and will be submitted to the proprietors of this company for confir mation and adoption at the meeting specially convened this day for that purpose, the main provisions of the agreement aro as follow: " First—The shareholders of the Newmarket Rail way Company, to receive from the Eastern Counties Railway Company, a preferential dividend or guaranteed stock of 3/. per cent. per annum for the first two years, commencing from the Ist October, 1848, (when posses sion of the line will be taken by the latter company), and 31. 10s. per cent. per annum in perpetuity afterwards. " Second—The same dividend to be paid on the de posit monies received on the extension scrip. " Third—No further call to be made beyond 20/. per share, and the Eastern Counties Railway Company to provide all other funds which shall be required for com pleting the branch line to Cambridge, and liquidating the liabilities of the Newmarket Railway Company, which have been ascertained, and (exclusive of the de posit on the extension scrip) are limited to a sum not exceeding 530,0004 " Your directors think it unnecessary to lengthen their report by entering into the minor details of this agree ment, which they recommend for the adoption of the shareholders. " Your directors have hitherto exercised considerable forbearance in not pressing for the amount outstanding on account of calls, but they cannot conclude this report without pointing out to those shareholders who are i❑ arrear the penalties to which they are subjected for non payment, and impressing upon them the necessity of an imnxediato liquidation, which otherwise it will be the obvious duty of the directors to enforce, or to declare the shares forfeited." It appeared from the capital account that the total amount received was 378,6111. 13s. 51, and that the ex penditure was 371,6441. Os. 7d., leaving a balance in favour of the company on account of capital of 6,967/. 12s. 10d. From the revenue account it ap peared that the traffic for the three months ending the 30th of June last, had produced 3,0851. 7s. 7d. ; that the expenses in carrying on that traffic were 1,8791. 2s. Bd., leaving a balance in favour of the company of 1,2061. 4s. Ild. The CHAIRMAN said, that since the directors had last met the proprietors, two circumstances of importance had occurred—the opening of the line generally between Chesterford and Newmarket, and the conclusion of the negotiations between the directors of the Newmaaket Company and the Eastern Counties proprietors. The result of tho three months working of the lino was be fore the proprietors ; it was considered by the directors satisfactory, and be trusted it would be equally so to the proprietors. He could assure the shareholders that the directors, in their regotiations with the Eastern Counties directors, had spared no pains, in conjunction with the committee, to carry out an amalgamation on fair terms, and he felt happy in stating that they had been able to do so. The Noble Chairman concluded by moving that the report now read, with the statement of the accounts, be printed and circulated among the proprietors. Mr. FRITH, the Deputy-Chairman, seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. The meeting was then declared special, for the pur pose of submitting for the approval of the shareholders, and also for their adoption, the conditional agreement which had been entered into by the directors with the directors of the Eastern Counties Company for the leas ing of the Newmarket Railway and branch to them. The agreenint was read at length by the secretary, and, after a short discussion, was adopted. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman and directors, and the meeting separated. REAL DEL MONTE MINING COM PANY DISSOLUTION.—(THIS DAY.) A special meeting of this company was held this af ternoon at the offices of the company in Duke-street, Adelphi; Sir Thomas Price, Bart., in the chair. The CJIIRIIIAN said he regrett e d t o i n f o rm the meet ing that, after much consideration, the directors had come to the conclusion that it was imperatively neces• sary for the safety of all concerned in the undertaking that the company should be immediately dissolved. They were unanimously of opinion that, under present circumstances, no other course could bo adopted, unless, indeed, the shareholders wished to lead the company into further difficulties. He concluded by moving the dissolution of the company., A long discussion ensued, and ultimately tho resolu tion, dissolving the company, was carried,. and another meeting appointed to be held th is day four weeks, to confirm the resolution, and the meeting separated. The company was established as long ago . as twenty of o f uirt heal tis s, Del f m o r o t n h t e e p i n u r m p o e s x e ic o o f w a o n r d k t a n l g th the oug h s r the s shares, which which were originally 4001. each, were at one . time sold for 1,5001, the undertaking was never a profitable one. - - SUPPOSED MURDER OF A WIFE BY HER HUSBAND, AND SUICIDE OF THE LATTER. Yesterday morning, about ten o'clock, the inhabitants of Chester-street, Toxteth-park, were alarmed by the rumour that a murder had been committed by a map. named Robert Howarth, residing in that street, NI ho, it was stated, had first killed his wife, and afterwards com mitted suicide. The circumstances of this dreadful event are as fol low :—The supposed murderer, who is about forty-seven years of age, was a dealer in cattle, and was, until re cently, a wholesale confectioner, occupying a shop in St. James's-street, Toxteth-park. For some time back neither his wife nor family have resided with him, in consequence of some family differences. Since the se paration Howarth had made his wife a certain allowance, and on Friday evening she went to the house for the purpose of receiving the usual monthly stip en d f rom hi m. As she did not return , her friends became alarmed as the evening advanced, and some of them remained about the house until between one and two in the mo rn i ng , ex pecting her every minute to make her appearance. She, however, did not do so, and, not having returned on still Saturday morning, they becamemore alarmed, and again went in search of her, but did not succeed in findin g her anywhere. The day passed over without any tidings having been heard of the deceased, and her friends be came more and more a larmed. The intelligence of h er absence was, yesterday morning, communicated to a st rvant in the employ of her husband, and, about seven o'clock, this person, having the key of the back door of Howarth's residence, proceeded there along with three other persons, and, after making a search for a few minutes, they went up stairs into one of the bedrooms, where the most horrifying spectacle was presented. The unfortunate woman was found lying stretched on the floor of the bedroom quite dead, her head and face being surrounded by a large pool of blood. Her dress was also torn open, and the disordered state of her hair, and other general appear ances of the body gave evident indications of violence having been used upon her. The body was lying straight out, with the head from the bed and the legs under it. They then drew the clothes from off the bed, where they discovered the body of her hus band. They at first thought that he was asleep, but on a closer inspection they ascertained that he, also, was dead. Tho body of the husband did not exhibit the slightest marks of violence; neither was there any ap pearance about the face to indicate death, the deceased lookingut,on as if in a sound sleep. On searching the bed room no deadly w ea p on o f an y d e scription was found: b again going down stairs into the kitchen, a cup. I.lsiwne considerablean e s i cr d ,o p;n c s o do v f e t w r h ei what an , otu containing des dead dtt m ro efl i x nbi eg t e u st b r a ; ppn supposed be tt table, b the ,el be beingian a ur ge mixture. It appears, from information which we last evening received from the relatives of the deceased woman, that, on Friday evening, her husband was dreadfully agitated in consequence of having lost a considerable sum of money in a purchase of cattle ; and he repeatedly said o his wife's sister, that evening, that he was almost in clined to deprive himself of his life, at the same moment drawing his hand across his throat and exclaiming, .6 Oh, I could do that just now!" It is supposed that the murder must have been corn witted, at the latest, on Saturday morning, twenty-four hours before the discovery took plaoe, for the unfortu nate man, who, at that time, had no one with him in the house but his wife, his housekeeper having gone from home a few days previous, went to a neighbouring house about eleven o'clock on Suturday morning, and com plained that he was very sick and ill. He then went into the house again, and was not seen afterwards until he was discovered as already described. During several hours, early yesterday morning, the relatives frequently knocked at the house door, but re ceiving no answer, and, on looking through the key-hole, seeing his hat, coat, &c., they felt satisfied something was wrong, which led to the search by which the dread ful deed was diacoyered. 74 11 1 h 16 29 213 / 4 22% 100 11 3 / 4 2% 23 14 lis 2 1 / 8 13 1 i EVENI NG, SEPTEMIIRR 25, Vitl, Whether the murder bras c ffccted by poison or by some other means is not yet known ; but it appears from the state of the deceased woman's body that towards her great violence had been committed.—Liverpool ilicrcury of this day. TRIAL OF THE CHARTIST CONSPIRATORS. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. CONTINUATION OF THE TRIAL OF DOWLING. Mr. Justice Erle, Baron Platt, and Mr. Justice Williams took their seats is the court at ten o'clock precisely. William Dowling having been placed at the bar, Mr. Justice ERLE proceeded to sum up the evidence, and to direct the jury. As the case had extended over sometime he considered that he should not properly die• charge his duty if he did not go through the whole of the evidence. It they were of opinion that the prisoner in tended to deprive the Government of any of its lawful powers they must find him guilty of levying war against the Queen. He need not tell them that wherein an un diiciplined mob assembled, whatever might be its ob ject, great danger to the Government and the liberties of the people was likely to ensue. If they considered that the prisoner intended to interfere with the free ex ercise of the lawful powers of the Government, with the view of obtaining the People's Charter or the Repeal of the Union, and intended to use force to do so, they could not find him guilty of a riot, but of the higher offence laid to his charge. If they believed he intended to raise an insurrection against the Crown and the Government, he was clearly guilty of that offence. The same result ' must follow if they were of opinion that he conspired with others to accomplish the objects charged against him. He was charged with the commission of four overt acts, and if they were of opinion that he was guilty of one of them, that act would constitute the full offence for which ho was indicted. The first charged the prisoner and others with assembling, conspiring, and consulting for the purpose of levying an insurrection against the Queen, to overthrow the Constitution and Government as by law established, the second " that they procured arms to accomplish their purpose ;" the third, that they conspired to set fire to police-stations, houses, ant, buildings, and that they provided themselves with com bustible materials for the purpose heretofore stated ; and the fourth, that he and they enrolled themselves members of unlawful, secret, and dangerous clubs and ' confederacies, held secret correspondence and communi cations with each other, for the purpose of raising and making an insurrection, rebellion, and war against the Queen. The first count of the indictment charged the prisoner with conspiring to levy war, and the second with the view of deposing the Queen from her regal title, style, and dignity. The Learned Judge then read the whole of the evidence, commenting upon portions of it as he went along, telling the jury that they might find ' the prisoner guilty on one or both of the counts. With respect to the conduct of Parnell, who was accused of violating the confidence placed in him by the prisoners, whom they had seen arraigned, the Learned Judge put it to the jury, whether if a number of their workmen conspired together to the injury of their business and their property, they would not consider themselves per fectly justified in directing one of their faithful work men to join their councils, in order that the information to be furnished by him might defeat their machinations. He regretted much that Mr. Kenealy had, in a Court. of Justice, where such grave matters were dealt with, disturbed the attention of the jury from the great matters at issue, by personal observations on the Learned Counsel opposed to him. Ho certainly could appeal to precedents since counsel of longer standing had adopted such an objectionable course. In his opinion a counsel went beyond his vocation when he criticised in the way he had the motives of the Legislature in passing the Act ' under which the prisoner was indicted; more particularly was he blameable when he said that that measure was passed with the view of taking away the liberties of the people. This could not bo so since persons charged with a similar offence to that imputed to the prisoner were tried with the same fairness as those obarged with ordinary felonies, of the mode of trying which there was no complaints. He could not well see how the jury could adopt the advice of the counsel, and find him merely guilty of a riot. It was their duty to dismiss from their minds the decisions of past juries or those of future juries, to dismiss all extraneous matter from their minds,, deciding, in fact, upon the evidence alone ; but, at the same time, giving the prisoner the benefit of any reasonable doubt they entertained The Learned Judge concluded his address at twelve minutes to one o'clock. The jury expressed a wish to retire, and they left the Court, in the custody of an officer, at ten minutes to one. TRIAL OF CUFFEY, LACY PAYNE, AND friends were situated. Mr. Pembroke was objected to by Mr. Ballantine, and he left the box amidst renewed hisses, some few of which came from the body of the court. A jury having been at length empannelled, Mr. PARRY said, on behalf of Fay and Lacy, that they had no objection to be tried by this jury ; ho should not. therefore, challenge the array, the only object of himsel and his Learned Friends being to obtain an impartial jury. He believed they had now obtained one. The ATTORNEY GENERAL acceded to this course, and Fay and Lacy were called up, when the jury were sworn. Cuffey said the only objection he had to the jury was that they were not his equals ; ho was a journeyman mechanic. _ Tho jurymen not sworn were then dismissed until to morrow morting, at nine o'clock. Mr. Baron PLATT intimated that he should sit till eight o'clock. After an adjournment of about half an hour, Cell, Fay, and Lucy were placed at the bar. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL proceeded to state his case against the prisoners, and bad not concluded %I hen we went to press. Up to the hour of our going to press, the jury in the case of Dowling had not returned into court with their verdict. It was stated in the coral that they were not likely to agree. NEW COURT. (Before the RECORDER and Mr. Alderman Ginns.). CHARGE CF RAPE.— William Darvill, a respectablo looking man, was indicted for a rapo on Julia Harris, a child only nine years of age. The facts of the case are totally unfit for publication. The jury found the prisoner guilty of an aggravated assault, and The RECORDER sentenced him to two years' imprison ment and hard labour in the House of Correction. Ti►e court was crowded to excess in the early part of the morning, by jurors in waiting, in consequence of 200 extra having been summoned, in the expectation of numerous challenges ou behalf of the Chartist pri soner& Through some mismanagement, either on the part of the Sheriffs, the Under-Sheriffs, or some other officer of the Court, the box appropriated to the reporters was filled immediately on the sitting of the Court with jurors, and the gentlemen of the press were left to hear the cases that came before the Court, and make out their reports of them how they could.

MULLINS. The above named prisoners were called up to take their trial on the motion of the Attorney-General. Mr. BALLANTINE applied to Mr. Justice Platt to postpone the trial of the whole of the prisoners until the next session, on the strength of an affidavit, which stated that though a person was occupied all Saturday and yesterday at Manchester in searching for material witnesses, he had not been able to procure them. Time, therefore, was necessary to procure them. Mr. HUDDLESTONE joined in the applicatios, but was opposed by the jury on the ground that the prisoners had had ample time to prepare their defence. Mr. Justice ERLE, having communicated with the other judges, declared that they were of opinion that the trial should not be postponed. It was important that the offence imputed to the prisoners should be settled without delay, and that the attendance of jurymen should not be in vain,. Mr. PARRY (on behalf of Mullins) applied for a post ponement of his trial, on the affidavit of Mr. Roberts, his solicitor, who stated that he was committed on the 20th instant, during the sitting of the Court, and that no briefs had been made oat, nor in structions given. In an ordinary case of felony—steal ing a pocket handkerchief—the application would be granted as a matter of course. From the course the Attorney-General had taken, he had not turned his mind to the case of Mullins. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL left the matter to the de cision of the Court. At ter some discussion, the trial of Mullins was post poned until the ;text session. The prisoners were then severally called upon to plead. Cuffey, when called upon, exclaimed, in a loud voice, " I are not guilty ; I demand a fair trial by my peers or My equals, according to Magna Charts" which caused some surprise, not unmixed with laughter. Mr. BALLANTINE, on Mr. Brooks, surgeon, being called upon to enter the box, applied to the Court to be permitted to ask that gentleman a question iaaterial to the case, and important for the prisoners to know, for after all, the felony alleged against the prisoners partook of a political cha racter. Ho admitted he had no information with respect to Mr. Brooks. He applied to the Court to appoint " triers" to enquire whether the jury to be called upon to try the prisoners were free from political bias. lie cited the Ist volume of Coke upon Littleton in support of his ap- plication. Mr. Parnell, Mr. lluddlestone, and Mr. Metcalf (all of whom appeared for Cuffey), and Mr. Parry (on be beg' of Payne), supported the application, who also ap plied to have the panel read over. It was utterly useless to give prisoners the right of challenge if they were kept in ignorance of the names of those by whom they were tried. The .ATTORNEY - GENERAL opposed the application. The names were called over on the first day of each session. Mr. PARRY said that was not in the presence of the accused. Mr. BALLANTINE said he understood 200 new jurors had been summoned, whose names had not been called over. Ile proposed to show, without disrespect to the jurymen, that he was not unindifferent as between the Crown and the prisoner. This he proposed to show out of his own mouth. Mr. Baron PLATT thought the jury could not be ob jected to until they were in the box. Mr. PARRY applied to have hid application with re spect to the reading of the panel placed upon the record. otherwise the prisoner could not take advantage of it if their Lordships' decision was wrong. Mr. Baron PLATT refused the application. The jury having been, called and taken their places in the box, Mr. IIUDDLESTONE applied, on behalf of Cuffey, to have the panel read over in the words stated by Chitty, p. 546. Mr. Baron PLATT inquired if the Attorney-General opposed the application? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he did n o t. Mr. KENNALY called the attention of the Court to the fact, that he cited the same authority before Mr. Justice Erle and Mr. Justice Williams, and that they refused it. Mr. Justice WILLIAMS reminded the Learned Counsel that he merely applied for a copy. The panel was then read over. Mr. BALLANTINE intimated that the prisoners intended to separate their challenges? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said, if si xty gentlemen were objected to, a suffi c i en t margin would not be left for the evidence of all parties; be should therefore take the case of Cuffey first. You say you shall separate your challenges. I shall, therefore, proceed upon my undoubted right, and try Cuffey alone. Mr. STRAIGUT then proceeded, at the request of the Court, we understood, to read the names of the 200, the whole of whom were called out of the New Court and filled this Coutt to overflowing, the prisoners being ac commodated with seats whilst thhe list wa s read. hen the list was completed the 200 were filed off. In reply to Mr. Ballantine Mr. Baron PLATT stated that counsel had no right to examine the jurymen as to their position, political feeling, &c. One or two of the jury having been challenged, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL objected, and pleaded that the juryman (Mr. Pickwell) was indifferent. Two triers having bee n sworn, one a juryman and the other an independent person, the obj ected juryman was sworn., Mr. BALLANTINE proposed to ask him if he was a special constable. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL objected. The question was foreign to the matter at issue. The COURT WAS of the same opinion. The juryman, in reply to another question, said he had expressed no opinion with respect to the issue of this case. , The " triers " found that Mr. Pickwell was indifferent, as also did two of the jurymen subsequently appointed to discharge the same duty with respectito several others who were challenged. One juryman, a Mr. Pembroke, on being asked the question , said bo had expressed a wish that all the parties might be hung.--(Roars of laughter, in which the prisoner heartily joined,) Mr. Baron PLATT asked him to repeat the answer, as he had not heard it, from the noise in the Court. On repeating it some hisses burst from that portion of the the prisoner's gallery in whist M. Duffey and some of SPAIN. A letter from Perpignan, dated 19th instant, con tains the following :—" An important encounter has just taken place on the Spanish frontier, near Figue ;as, between General EUNA, who, being joined by several columns of troops, was at the head of 2,300 infantry and 500 cavalry, and CABRERA, who had under his orders 1,500 infantry and 300 cavalry. The action lasted eighty hours, and the losses were considerable on both sides. CABRERA was obliged to abandon his position, some say because he wanted ammunition, others because he was beaten. Thirty Carlists, cut off from the main body, sought refuge in France, where they were disarmed." The Three per Cents. were done at 19 15-16 for cash ; the Five per Cents. at 10i for peper ; the Debt without Interest at 3i; and the Coupons at 6 fur cash. AUSTRIA. Accounts from Vienna ,down to :he 19th again re present the state of anarchy in Pesth to be very great. According to these accounts the town of Comoro, in Hungary, had been almost entirely de itroyed by fire. Jellachich had advanced as far as Wessprim. The Hungarian troops showed every in clination to desert. Letters from Vienna of the 19th instant announce the arrival in that capital on the 18th of a depu tation from the Hungarian Diet. It was charged with a mission, not for the Emperor, but for the people, that is the National Assembly. On the 19th the President of the Assembly read a letter from the President of the Hungarian Diet, accrediting the deputation to the Austian Assembly. Several deputies proposed that the deputation should be received ; but M. Rieger contended that the measure was contrary to the rules of the House. The Tschech deputies also opposed the motion in terms extremely offensive to the Hungarians. The President attempted several times to put the question to the vote, but so violent a tumult arose that he was obliged to suspend the sitting during half an hour. When it was resumed, M. de Wessemberg thus ad dressed the Assembly : " The desire of the Ministry has ever been to main tain peace. In the months of May and July useless efforts were made to that effect. The Emperor had authorised us to preseut to the Hungarian Ministry a manifesto expressive of his views towards Hungary. We have not yet communicated the document to the Assembly. I now deposit it on the table." M. Bach continued:—" The Hungarian Ministry had asked the Austrian Cabinet if it was dis posed to admit the pragmatic sanction as the basis of the national relations, and if, in the Croation question, it would follow the pragmatic sanction. The reply to the first question was in the affirmative, but the Ministry, being desirous that nationalities should be respected, re turned no answer to the second." The Emperor had accepted the resignation of the Hungarian Cabinet, and Count Batthyani had been (gain charged with the construction of a new Admi nistration, which Messrs. Kossuth and Mdarass had promised to support. PIEDMONT. The National Savoisien of the 21st inst. states that the King of Sardinia was expected at Chambery, where General Oudinot, General-in-Chief of the Army of the Alps, had arrived on the 19th.

After viewing these ships their Lordships went on board the Hotspur and inspected the Coast Guardmen at drill, having been joined by the Commander-in-Chief and his Flag-captain, Sir Thomas Maitland and his Flag-lieutenant. Lord Auckland ex pressed the satisfaction of the Board of Admiralty with the performances of the Coast Guardsmen. Their Lord s' • is next visited the new basin, and were occupied a .siderable time in the inspection of it. They next proceeded to the new frigate Indefatigable, recently launched, which was designed by William Edyer, Esq., the master shipwright at this port ; after which they lunched with Sir John Louis, and next proceeded to visit the mi!lwrights' shop and engine -houses, and, aecom panied by Captain Brugmaun, embarked in the Corn mander.in-Chiet's barge for the works at Keyham.
