CARSONS CREEK CONSOLIDATED MINING COMPANY. The Directors of this Company have the pleasure to inform the shareholders that advices have been received, under date of the 31st May, from the deputation sent to Carseni Creek, to investigate and report upon the representations made respecting the title, condition, and value of the Mine. Although scenes of violence and intimidation had occurred at the mine, and forcible possesssion been for a time held by adverse par ties of " Jumbers" and " Squallers," which had obliged the Carsons Creek Company to resort to the courts of law and obtain (which they did) a writ of restitution, the writers had the satisfac tion of witnessing the Company replaced in quiet and peaceable possession by the Sheriff of the County, and no question of title Consequently remained open. In respect of the condition of the mine, Its working is stated to be about being resumed by some parties of Cornish miners, who had been disappointed in the engagement they had formed, and were glad to take employment in Carsons Creek Mine. On the important point of the quantity and - value of Ore at surface, the deputation state, that in the course of the contest which had taken place, the greater part of the Ore sufficiently valuable to be worked by hand had been carried off, that modifications must consequently be made in the agreement for the purchase se far as regards the amount of purchase money pay able fbr the Mine, and that negotiations were satisfactorily proceed ing with Mr. Hance and the ether proprietors, with the view of arranging such alterations as, under the circumstances of the case, should bej udged equitable to botla the vendors and purchasers. Mr. Hance would remain to superintend the working and for the protection of the Mine. By order, H. NESBITT, Secretary Allhallows Chambers, Lombard-street, July 12, 1852.

The Tower Hamlets, again, evinced but little appreciation of the rhetorical powers of Mr. GEORGE TnomrsoN—of those extra ordinary powers which the ex-Member had so fre qmently employed to the popular advantage, and which, by their splendour, had extorted the panegyric of a renowned and fastidious orator like Lord BROUGHAM—when it ousted him the other day from his post as a metropolitan representative. Maccles field has, with equal indelicacy, forgotten the labours of Mr. Joan.: WILLIAMS, and L ambeth the prolonged career of a veteran Liberal like the Right lion CHARLES TENNYSON D'EYNCOURT. After deserting the cause of Mr. ROEBUCK, Bath has lost a re membrance of the claims upon its gratitude of Lord DUNCAN, and those claims, although they ought to have been recognised throughout the United Kingdom at any rate in reference to the abolition of the tax upon windows, were yet more flagrantly dis allowed by the constituents of Bury in Lancashire. While the electors of Penryn appeared to become un accountably indifferent to the re appearance upon the local hustings of Mr. FRANCIS MowATT, its ex- Member, and Bodmin appeared no less careless as to the return to its locality as a Liberal candidate of Mr. JAMES WYLD, its former Representative— s more marked rejection of their abilities was manifested towards Mr. WYLD by the electors of Finsbury and towards Mr. MOW ATT by the elec tors of Cambridge. Derby, in like manner, seems to have forgotten the good services of Mr. LAWRENCE HEY WORTH, and Ludlow those of Colonel SALWE Y, and Cockermouth those of Mr. HORSMAN, and Devonport those of Sir JOHN RolelLLY—although the two last mentioned especially had acted nobly in behalf of the general interests of the community—ROMlLLY as a legal and lIOESMAN as an ecclesiastical reformer. Amongst all these evidences of popular ingratitude, perhaps, however, the most flagrant is that afforded by the Liberal electors of Bradford. The men of Bradford, we cannot but say it, plainly enough have disgraced themselves by their conduct towards their late gallant and distinguished representative. Set dom has man had stronger claims upon the support of a constituency than Colonel PEYRONNET THOMPSON had upon the Liberal voters of Bradford. Returned in 1835 by a majority of 1,428 as Member for Kingston -upon-Hull, the gallant Reformer testi fied during that Parliament his capacity as a legis lator, but especially in regard to that assiduity in the discharge of his Parliamentary duties, in which he is altogether, we believe, unequa ll e d . Si nce t h e t i me of his election as the representative of Bradford, in 1847, Colonel THOMPSON has sedulously been in at tecdance at every sitting that has taken place in the various sessions of the late Parliament. Insomuch ea as nix industry and application to the business of the House of Commons worthy of remark in this particular, that it was observed by the SPEAKER that the name of the Member for Bradford did not appear upon one occa sion upon the division - lis t , and then, not in conse quence so much of his absence as of the absence of mind of the printer !—the circumstance being duly notified afterwards in an erratum. - let it is this energetic and intelligent Liberal that the constituency of Bradford have re jected in preference for the untried illiberality of idr. WICKHAM. Honour at least to the 1,153 voters who polled the other day for Colonel THOMPSON. Honour to those men who, aware of his high claims upon their respect, have resolved at any rate to liquidate themselves all the expenses incurred in - the course of the recent unsuccessful election ! It were but right that the Liberals else where should evince a similar appreciation of the ser vices of Colonel PEYRONNET THOMPSON, and that an other opportunity should be afforded this distinguished Reformer of re-entering the House of Commons as one of the newly-elected representatives. It were strange indeed if, in this thoroughly Free-trade Parliament, the author of the witty and celebrated Catechism of the Corn-laws should be omitted. Perhaps we should not be wrong in designating Colonel Tuosirsoia the Father of Free Trade, and as such, surely, at this juncture it were but reason ably grateful that he should be empowered once more to enter the Legislature as one of the most eminent among the Liberal representatives. Example should, we repeat, be taken by those constituencies who have still reposing upon them the responsibility of selecting between the rival candi dates-30 that no further seats should be lost to the Liberal cause through the influence of this same culpable over-confidence. In England, at least, those constituencies are now exclusively county constituencies, and it becomes imperative upon them that the voters there should use every imaginable energy to maintain in their position such Reformers as Mr. BERNAL 0313ORNE--than whom a more throughly independent man, perhaps, never trod the floor of the House of Commons—and Lord ROBERT GROS VENOR, and oust such ultra-Tories as Mr. CHARLES NE WDEGATE and Mr. RICHARD SPOONER from their positions in North Warwickshire. Among the county contests now fast approaching must not be overlooked, that which is certain to take 'place in East Surrey, and where, doubt less, if the Liberal electors are true to them selves, Mr. LoCKE KING and Mr. THOMAS ALCOCK will resume their position as the Liberal representatives of this constituency. For ourselves, we would now, as a closing remark to this running commentary on the general election, adjure the electors of Middlesex with all earnestness to rally round their tried and distinguished ex- Members—Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE and Lord ROBERT GROSVENOR—and thereby to secure, through their triumph over the Marquis of BLANDFORD, another and a signal disappointment to the Tory Admi nistration. The magnificent general meeting of the project,' b r ought forward yester day at the ex t ra ordinary Citv. A direct steam excited a deep sens ation in the - Eastern Stea m Navigation Company has naturally communication with India would have been hailed as a boon of no ordinary magnitude by all per sons in any degree connected with our Eastern empire. If the annoyances inseparable from the ~ transit of the Desert—if the horrors of the passage i down the Red Sea could be avoided without a vast additional expenditure of time and money, a load of anxiety would be removed from the mind of every Indian traveller. Hitherto, however, there has been no intermediate mode of commu nication between the overland route and the long sea voyage by sailing vessels. Those who had sufficient leisure to spend an additional six weeks or two months on the journey unanimously preferred the latter course, which, though more te dious, was in many respects prefer a bl e to the former, passengers, when once em b arked, iwnearsemeuncshblaesclttlio e retain possessio n of their comfortable, c abins, until their arrival at their desti nat i on. ro()Their rny luggag e, t o o, remained undisturbed, i n p l ace of being transhipped on the arrival in Egypt, carried on ca . me ls across the Desert,andagain put onboardthe steame r at the Red Sea, matters, it is almost superflu ous t o say, entailing much trouble and expense to the hapless owners. Time, -0 - h w ever, is money, and a saving in peculiarly that respect is s° important to person s Ea tern merchant princes, Government, to our 3 f It the , that the holding official situations under the Anglo-Indian and others obliged to undertake . heavy become exceedingly submitted t - 0 , until the vessels were so crowded as to outlay and the serious inconve n iences were passengers, and the freight of light packages (no others could n Mil-. ' °-- " I Y be sent) was so enormous " as to be almost prohibitory." injurious to the health of the It may be asked why the obvious expedient of sending steam-vessels round the Cap e has not long since been ad op t e d? T he answer, hwe ver is very simple. A n y o f th e vessels heretofore o ' constructed would have stopped at various stations for the pur pose of taking in coal, the expense and delay whereof would in a great de g r ee h ave neutralized he advan tages that would other w i se h ave b een derivedfrom the establishment of th e new line. The idea -e l l 7 - sending vessel s di rec t, f rom port to port, without coaling en route, appeared to be too chime rical to enter into man's imagination. y es , sels of enormous bulk woull be required to carry the necessary supplies of coal, and of extraordinary speed to accomplish the distance within the time o e . cupied in tho overland journey. It was reserved for ithe Eastern Steam Navigation co,pany, under the advice and with the assistance of th e grea t eng i neer I who solved the Transatlantic steam problem, to overcome the difficulty hitherto considered insuper able. Mr. BRUNEL saw that without the adoption of any new principle, but merely by the judicious ap plication of those which have been for some time in operation, and fully and completely tested, it was perfectly practicable to construct vessels of sufficient power and capacity to perform the voyage from Plymouth to Calcutta without stopping to take in coal by the way. There would be a saving of at least 30s. per ton on the coal, a very important item in the expenditure of steam-vessels. His great ex perience told him that, with increased size, more par ticularly increased length, a greatly superior speed could be obtained, so that seventeen or eighteen miles per hour could be achieved by vessels carrying sufficient fuel for the entire journey, and in that opinion he was corroborated by those of the most eminent engin eers an d ship builders. Indeed the most sceptical would have been convinced by the clear and explicit state ments of that distinguished engineer and of Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL. The very interesting speeches of these gentlemen were received with the utmost en thusiasm. It was shown that more than eighteen miles per hour is regularly accomplished by the Holyhead vessels, notwithstanding the short cross seas, more injurious to speed than any to which the vessels to India would be exposed on the average of their passages. Sixteen or seventeen knots an hour might, therefore, be confidently anticipated, and that would achieve far more than c ou ld b 3 required to render the new line by far the m os t e li g ible to India* Even in the improved state of the overland rou te, for which the Peninsular and O r i en t a l C o mpany hav e contracted, the passage to India will take at least thirty-five days. It is ascertained that the journey from Plymouth to Calcutt a w ill b e performed in thirty-two days, if an avera ge o f fifteen mile s p er hour be attained ; at sixte en m il es per hour , in per hour, thirty days ; or, at s even t een m iles in twenty-eight days. It is almost a cer tainty that the latter will be about the mark, so that thirty days, a single calendar month, will be rather above the average. here' that there will be a saving of at least five days in point of time, of two-fifths , if not one-half in point of expense, and a total avoidance of transhipment of then, .e luggage, or change of vessel, to say not hi ng w of the Desert and the Red Sea. be an found in sal that passengers and freight would be reroune oui Under such circumstances, can ther e y. doubt Under i cient numbers to render the concern rative ? We should thick not. The denaan be afforded, exceed any accommodation that coul d themselves and crowds would hasten to ava il w hich won of advantages hitherto unknown, d would ld still n merely greatly enhance the existing, but almost create a new traffic. Mr. BauN EL might we ll hesitate the kind give any expression as to th e probable profits cif the concern, which promise t o exceed any thing of kind heretofore known. They will be such as to more than satisfy the most sanguine.

The Constit u ti onne l h as a l ong a rticle on the . ia portence of keeping accurate statistical tables through out the country, as lately ordered by the Govern ment. Th e J ourna l d es Deb a t s m akes some remarks on the English elections. The Pays contains the following observations on the resignation of the Belgian Ministry The retirement of the Ministry appeared inevitable, after the conflicts and results of the last elections, and after different other circumstances which had morally and very painfully affected the Cabinet of which the two MM. Rogier and M. Fesch were the moot liberal and most important members. It is not doubted that the resignation will be accepted by the King. The only question is whether the whole Ministry will retire, or whether the three ninisters more essentially political, will alone do so. A Catholic Ministry generally appear .a im possib'e, and it is nearly certain that a Ministry of mode rate Liberals will be established. Amongst the names pronounced to form part of the new Cabinet is that of M. Lehon. Every body considers the change which is about to t..ke place as favourable to the maintenance of good relations between France and Belgium, and it is not doubted that the desire which the Belgian Govern ment certainly has of maintaining these relations will have some influence on the composition of the new Ca binet. M. Firmin Rogier, who owed his post of Minis. ter Plenipotentiary in France to the high position of his brother, will very probably be replaced. It is said here that he will bo called tea diplomatic post of less import ance or to the government of a province in Belgium." The Moniteur continues to promulgate the mea sures lately adopted by the Legislative Body, and since then approved of by the Senate. It gives (yes terday) the Bill granting 34,463 f. to pay credits due on the estimates of the years 1848, 1849, and 1850 ; also that interdicting suspicious characters to reside in the department of the Seine and in the Lyons dis trict; that concerning the purchase of the Hotels Sebastiani and Castellane ; and that relating to the majorat of the Duke DE BELLUNE. The Patric states a strong demagogical feeling still exists in the Allier, but at the same time ex presses no alarm on the subject, as the energy and firmness of the Government will always enable it to baffle any of the senseless attempts of that party.

The PRINCE PRESIDENT of the Republic has just granted a full pardon to 91 persons condemned to various punishments by the mixed commission of the, 1 - 16rault. We read in a Paris letter in the Emancipation of Brussels—" M. PROUDHON i 3 about to break the silence which he imposed on himself in confinement, and since his release from St. Pelagie. It is said that he is about to publish a philosophical and political work on the future fate of modern society. M. PROUDHON will, it is said, endeavour to establish that influence cannot henceforth belong either to reli gion as in the middle ages, or to royalty as in the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries, or to representative governments as in contemporary times ; and he will show that society no longer consists of regulated forces, but of mere individualities, and that domina tion must fall to one person according to the caprices of chance, or the relative ability of the competitors." It is announced that the plan of a new line of rail way is under consideration, to connect Nancy with Dijon, and the Strasburg with the Paris and Lyons line. It is proposed that this important section shall commence a short distance from Nancy, cross the hill des Corbeaux by' a tunnel, descend towards the Mo selle, run a branch to Epinal, continue by a t unne l metres, between Chaumouzy and Girancourt, touch at Con. flans, Velorce the Valley of Saint Eloy, Vesoul, Raze, Velexon, Gray, Essertenne, Biage, and thence to Dij on . the expense is estimated at 90,000,000 f. and The distance is calculated at 250 kilo- It will be seen, by consulting the map of France, that independent of the advantage of connecting two such important lines as those of Paris and Strasburg, and Paris and Lyons, the proposed line will mate rially serve four manufacturing districts.

A telegraphic dispatch was received at Vienna, on the 7th from Munich, stating that at present the king of SAXONY did not intend proceeding to the former capital.

The Roman Catholic Deputies of the Second Chamber of Hesse Cassel have declared to the Go vernment that they will not take the oath of fidelity to the Constitution, unless under the reservation of the rights of the Church.

The National Council of Switzerland, in its sitting of the Bth, discussed the question of railways. By a first vote it had been decided by 69 votes to 22 that the lines should be constructed by companies, the Ra dical party voted for its being done by the State. The discussion then commenced on the articles. Article 1 was adopted on the following terms by a large majority :—" The construction and working of the railways on the Federal territory are and remain cantonal affairs. They may be confided to private companier." The " cantonal sovereignty has thus," says the Suisse, " gained the advantage over uni tarianism." The Government of the Grand Duchy of Baden have just concluded a treaty with Switzerland for the immediate establishment of a line of electric telegraph by means of which a diruct communication with Milan may hereafter be ob tained. M. TRIERS has put an end to the annoyances to which M. DROUEY, the director of the Federal Police, wished to subject him by exhibiting a French pass port, bearing the visa of the Swiss Charge d'Affaires at Paris. The Suisse, in giving this fact, adds : " M. DRouay, the director of the Federal Police, did not confine himself to ordering the expulsion of M. TRIERS ; it is certain that he wrote to the Government of Argau on the subject of the Duchess of Outaaris. He did not dare to order the expulsion of the Princess, but it may be understood that his letter tended to that object. The Government of Argau, however, has not taken any notice of the letter." 4_7 z , ~.. .c... -.) •• -, , -, -- - - - k !As ~ I , „ .--.

In this manner several seats have been unexpectedly gained over to the DERBY Government. Occasionally even we have been compelled to witness the triumph of a Ministerialist in a Liberal borough over some distinguished Member of the Op position, to the advocacy of whose interests the Whig or Radical electors were bound by feelings of absolute gratitude. In other localities we have witnessed the acceptance of new men in preference for old, and faithful, and experienced representa'ives. We have se en Liverpool reject in this ungracious and ungrate ful manner the Right R on . L - Jr.DWARD CARDWELL, oue of the most able an d em i nen t of the Peelites. Oldham has in the same way selected Mr. MORAN COBI3ETT in lieu of Mr. JOHNSON Fox — forgetful, it would seem, of the remarkable and retemerous tier _ vic e s for wi:lch the Reformers generally indebted to the eloquence :and industry of the k ~I I T_a•, SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, ITALY. The Monitore Toscano of the sth contains a decree for tho organization of primary and secondary in struction. The public schools of the State are under the direction of the Minister of Public Instruction, and under the inspection of the Bishops in so far as reli gious instruction is concerned. Private instruction is under the surveillance of the Government. There is to be a primary school in every commune, and a lyceum in every principal town, viz., at Florence, Lucca, Le g h orn, Pi sa , Si ena , Arezzo, and Pistoia. Any Catholic Tuscan may open a school without any previous certificate of capacity. By a decree of the 7tb, the King of SARDINIA has confided the portfolio of Foreign Affairs to General LAMARMORA, Minister of War, during the temporary absence of the Marquis D'AZEGLIO. The Giornale di Roma of the 3d publishes a con vention concluded between the Papal States and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, fixing the boundaries of the_two territories. The Piedmontese Gazette announces that the Queen of SARDINIA had a violent attack of fever on the Bth, in consequence of her late miscarriage, but is now much better. The Turin and Novara Railway Bill was voted by the Piedmontese Senate on the 9th. It also passed a Bill for a railway from Bra to Cavallermaggiore. M. BONCOMPAGNI, Minister of Justice and Public Instruction at Turin, has directed an inquiry to be made into the circumstances attending an infraction of the university rules by certain professors, who, in conferring the degree of doctor, not only spoke in Latin, but bitterly inveighed against the decree which abolishes the use of that language in the Uni versity.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CTY. TWO O' The sales of Cotto n at L i ve pool yesterday were CLOCK. esti mated at 5,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export, and on speculation. The market closed steadily without chang e in prices. The sales co m p r i se d 4,000 American, 200 Pernam and Maracham, at bid. to 7d., 400 Egyptian at 6d. to Bd., and 400 Surat at 31d. to 41(1.1 per lb.—Railway Shares were at higher prices. The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have re ceived advices from Mr. Falconnet, dated Mexico, June 4th. Seconded by her Majesty's Minister in Mexico, Mr. Doyle had succeeded in obtaining exemption from export duty on the 2,500,000 dolle7s of American In demnity numay, although it had already been decided in the negative by both Houses of Congress. The Presi dent, however, sent the law back to Congress, with ob servations, and the result has been that the House of Representatives did not insist upon their resolution, and that the Executive has taken upon itself to authorise the free exportation o f thi s money. It is impossible to speak too highly of the part which the President has taken in this aff.sir, notwithstanding the determined opposition of the French Minister, and many other influential persons. The money was duly received by Mr. Fal connet on the 30th May, and will, in part, leave Mexico for Vera Cruz, by the Conducts, of the 20th June, for shipment to Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co., by the July p ac k et, on an und erstanding with their Mexican agent, that on the arrival of such part here the distribution of the whole will be announced by them. Mr. Fal connet h a d b ee n una bl e, as yet, to co ncer t with the Government any mode of providing for the immediate payment of the July dividend, but it contiaued, of course, to have its best attention. After obtaining some securities f rom M essrs. Man rang and M ac ki ntos h, Mr. Fal connet h a d , on behalf of ley of tw o years to the committe e , s i gne d a document, granti ng t h em a de pay their debts, they paying in the meanwhile 6 per cent. interest : Mr. Falconnet has compromised Mr : Olarte's claim. From a return just completed, we find . that the aggre gate of all ki n d s o f gra i n i m ported into the United Kingdom f rom f ore i gn coun t r i es an d British posses sions, during the year to the sth January, 1852, amounted to 9,618,026 qu a rters, which, as compared with the previ ous y ears ' i mporta ti ons , snows an increase of 598,447 quarters.

A young men nem( d 7 homas Maddo c, the ma te of the Dahlia, one of the steam• boats belonging to the London and Westminster Penny Steam-boat Compaq' was charged this morning, before Alderman Lawrance ! with having occasioned the death of Ann Williams and other persons by running down a boat on the river. The charge arose out of the melancholy accident which occurred at Blacktriars-bridge on Sunday lust, and to peered to create SUMO excitement in the City. Mr. Robinson, the barrister, attended for the prisoner; Francis Williams w as t h e fi rst witness called. 11 said—On Sunday last I and some friends, ten in n umber, hired a boat and went to Greenwich to spend the day We returned home in the evening, and came gently tIP the river on the tide. As we approached Blackfriars' bridge we caught sight of the steamer. We were g oing up towards Hungertord, and the steamer was crossing the tide. Tho steamer struck our boat near the bow ea the right hand side. The t id e was running up, a nd we shouted for the steamer to heap off, hut they took n e notice of us and came d own u pon oar boat. The e ngines were not stopped, and we came in contact with the paddle-box. The consequence was that onr boat wa s capsized, and we were all thrown into the water. Three of our party were lost, namely, Ann Williams, Em 0 , 5,, Bate;, and Thomas Weston ; b ut I and the others who could not swim were pulled into the steamer. Alderman LAWRANCE—Rave the bodi es b een found? Witness—No; they've been dragging for them 01 1 since. Ido not recollect seeing any one at the wheel e e the steamer ; b ut I was too much confused to se' anything. Cross-exitninetl—l was steering the bent, and we could see th e steamer, and they could see us some distance off. P erhaps forty yards. We wont throug h the f ourt h arch of the bridge, and we 1111 a got abo u t fif teen yards above bridge when the steamer struck us. We wore inone of t" 0 boats that are capabl e o f accommodat i ng thirteen of l '°"""ta nereens. are , I felt no darner before we et through the arch, but then we all b ecame ver y mu ch alarmed, an d called out to the steamer to stop. 11,11, Williams was my s i ster . in-law. Some of the females e got up w h en the damage became apparent, but not le such a manner as to render the boat unsafe. By the AenenereN—We could see the se a mer before We got through the arch, b u t we saw no danger, 20„ were quite joyful. The steamer came deliberate dowit upon us. James Quin, in the employ of Sir Henry Meux, we! the n ext witness examined—lle said, I was on b eard the sc h o ll op on S un d ay w i t h t h e l a s! witness. Th ere were ten persons on b oard, and I eew the Dahli a steamer come towards us. We came aga inst her after passing the bridge, at a time wh e n she ap peared to be making a shoot across the river for one Of the arches. Sh e was very much laden with passeng.(o,4 and seemed to b e com i ng towar d s t h e arch we n% passed through. We ca ll e d out l ust ily, b ut w i t h . .,` e avail, and the steamer eventually ran us down. . were going w ith t h e t i de, while the steamer was gol'So, against it. Th o paddle-box caught the bow of boat, and turned it over. I was immerged in i t water with th e whole of my body onset' and attempted t o sw i m , b ut found I could not, because my head struck against something. I then dived do" deeper, and th en I came to the surface. Directly lelf so I saw my f at h er struggling for his life, and while seized the ca p s i ze d b oat with the one hand, I clung ,0 his collar with the other. I held on in this way untel" rope was thro wn f rom the steamer, and at length, with; a good deal of difficulty, I succeeded in saving tie father, wh o , t ogether with myself and some ono else, wa taken on shore to a receiving -house. My father haste' mained in an insensible state ever since. Cross -examined —We had been in the boat since nin e o'clock in the mornin.g, We had been as far as Gree t ': wich, and di ne d i n the park. We left Greenwich Oa! six o'cl oc k. If the steamer had been stopped ther,u, would have b een no difficulty whatev er , and I thin: there was plenty of time to stop her before the accident occurred. Gt i m o° t e s of 10, Kings.gate-stre e t Holborn , Williams, the party on board the boat, confirmed th e • h ums , the young woman who w as l ost, was his wi fe ' There was plenty of time to stop t h e steamer, or another e e : g y :f V of the two precedin g w i tnesses. Ann the steamer only gone six feet more to the right, the boat would have been saved. Witness escaped by tb ° paddle-wheel of the steamer. He was dragged up on t° the steamer, but he was too much excited to perceir e who had charge of the wheel. Thomas Dawson, a master mariner, of Sunderland: said—l was on board the steamer when the accident happened. I was standing in the centre of the vessel 3 : 1 the time, and I saw the boat directly she was turned over. I heard the people in the boat scream out, a li o then the prisoner called down the pipe for the engineer e stop. Two seconds afterwards the collision took and I rendered all the assistance I could to ree' er the people thrown out of the boat. The atettni ir was very much crowded, so uchli' for deed, that there was scarcelyroom enou g h was the two-thirds of the people.

Tho accident and th e scream came almost together. William Dawson, the brother of the last witness, con firmed this statement, and added that had the steamer kept her right way the accident would not have her pened. As it was, there was no room between t 1!: mate relieved and the steamer for th e b oat to get clear.
