STAMPED sd. Naval and Military Intelligence. The double screw composite gunvessel Beacon, 2, 461 tons, 120 horse power, intended for service in China, has been docked at Chatham, after receiving her masts, a number of shipwrights and other work men being employed on her to bring her forward for commission. The Beacon is of exceedingly light draught of water, drawing only 3ft. forward and Vt. aft. Her Majesty's double screw gunboat Plover, 3, 663 tons, and 160 horse power, built at Deptford and completed for service at Woolwich, returned to the latter port on Tuesday night after a trial trip to the Maplin Sands. The main object of the trial was to test the temperature of the engine room, which, since her former trip, has undergone some altera tions in order to improve the ventilation and reduce the degree of heat. The average rate of speed is given as 10.7 knots per hour. The temperature was quite satisfactory. She returned to the outer basin at Woolwich yesterday, under orders to be docked, in order to make some slight alterations in her screw propeller, after which another trial will be made, again to register her rate of speed, prepara tory to her being commissioned for service. Staff Commander Dillon took charge of the vessel during the trial, and Mr. Partridge superintended the working of the engines on behalf of the Admiralty officials. The War Department vessel Thames, Mr. Horn sey, master, sailed from Woolwich Arsenal yester day, laden with Palliser chilled shot and Boxer blank ammunition and other war stores, for Dover, and the Elizabeth, of Goole, commenced shipping from the gun wharf a cargo, consisting of arm chests containing the new Snider rifles, for supply to the troops, 30 tons of Palliser shot, 40 tons of Boxer cartridges, and sundry other army stores, for Leith. The hired troopship Electric, having landed her troops at Liverpool for New Zealand, has been engaged during the week in discharging returned ammunition at the powder buoy off Woolwich Arsenal, and will go alongside the T pier to-day to land her heavy stores, saddlery, &c., at Woolwich. The dismountedportion of the sth Dragoon Guards arrived at C o l c h e ster by the 6 o'clock train last evening, with women, children, and baggage. They came via Tilbury from Dublin. The remainder of the regiment will arrive at Colchester from Liver pool on the 29ih, 30th, and 31st inst. ; the head quarters will reach Colchester according to present arrangements on Sept. 2. Dr. Morphew, Ist Royal Regiment, has been appointed to act as principal medical officer at Colchester, vice Dr. Furlong, 6th Dragoons, removed with his regiment. Lieut.

Five peer a g es have become extinct ; namely, the earldom of Pomfret and the baronies of Bay fling, Glenelg, Llanover, and Ponsonhy.. The suc cessors to the title of Donoughmore, Clifden, and Monteagle are as yet minors, while, on theuiosthoerf hand, the Duke of Hamilton, the Marq Ormonde, and the Earl of Eladmoneuthawvaesatoutalilneedd. their majority since the mh o by hdaevsetbbeaerne elected to The t r b e e pr v es s e ou n u ta o t i i es v e ed fill Powerscourt and Viscount Templetown, in the c P a e u e s the Earl of Lauderdale in peera ge of Irelan d, and ' the peerage o f Scotland. The successor to the late Earl of Mayo has not yet been chosen. The see of Rochester has been filled by the appointment of Dr. Claughton. Nine new peerages have been created.

The Earl of Caithness is now a lord of Parliament as Baron Barrogill, and thus one of the peerages of Scotland has been merged into that of Great Britain. Two barons have received earldoms—Lord Dartrey is now the Earl of Dartrey, and Lord Wodehouse is Earl of Kimberley. Of the 18 new titles which have been added to the roll of their Lordships' House, 10 are due to Earl Russell, viz., the earldoms of Dartrey and Kimberley, the viscountcy of Halifax, and the baronies of Barrogill, Claremont, Kenry, Meredith, Monck, Northbrook, and Romilly. Eight stand to the account of the Earl of Derby, viz., Lords Brancepetb, Cairns, CoIoWAY, LtArtiarcere, Hylton, DR.

A correspondent in Morayshire says:—" I have never seen so many deaths among grouse in any former year, and I have no doubt that it will take a few years to got clear of the disease—it will linger loss or more for two or three years." Another correspondent writes us his opinion at great length from Ballater. The following is an abridg ment of what he says —" The disease appeared about the beginnig of July last season, but few birds compara tively speaking were affected by it till the April of the pre sent year, and from that time till June the deaths came thick and fast. When the mortality first began If. and the birds in good condition, but after a little time they became poor in flesh. The disease was similar to what we had seven years ago, and occurred about the same time of year. The diseased birds are almost always collected about springs, rivulets, and water -si , ks. In a time of disease the birds do not hatch so well as usual. The stomachs of the dead birds aro full of tapeworm, and the heart and liver discoloured. Moro cocks than hens have died." The tollowing letter, which is printed in full, is from a person who is, and has been fora period of 18 years, head keeper on extensive moors in Aberdeen and Banff shires. It was written two months ago:—" The disease appeared first early in January, and carried off a good many birds, but not more than we lost in the spring of 1866. In the end of January the weather became mild, and continued so throughout February, and during that period we had searcelyany disease. The month of March was very stormy, the depth of snow preventing the birds getting at the heather. They then nearly all left the high ground, and on their return early in April, when some patches of heather began to appear, the disease set in again with great virulence, and continued until the moors were nearly cleared of birds. The consequence is that on all our higher beats not a young bird has been seen this season, so far as I know or can learn from the shepherds. There ar3 a few old barren birds to be seen on the high ground only. On the lower beats a few did nest, but they were affected by the disease. Some hens were found dead close to the nest, and a few were found dead on the eggs. In general the birds found dead were in good condition and in fine plumage. I cut open many birds. In some I found tapeworm to a greater or lesser extent. The greatest number of tapeworms I found in one bird was 23, and the worms being from 14 to 20 inches in length, and all side by side in one part of the intestines, filled the gut to such an extent that I thought it impossible that anything could pass down. This bird I got before it was quite dead. It was a hen bird, and not at all lean. There were about a dozen eggs in her, well formed, the largest of them about the size of a small pea. Her plumage was beautiful. Other birds I have opened in which I found no tapeworm, but in every bird I opened I found the liver diseased. At the commencement of the disease the birds found dead were principally cocks; sub saquently they were nearly all hens. Taking it from first to last, I believe we lost about an equal number of both sexes. In the disease of former years the birds worn in variably found dead along water courses, but this year we found them over all the ground, and in most cases as if they had died without a struggle, the birds being in a roosting position, and always with empty crops. lam far from thinking that tapeworm is the sole cause of the disease, although it is very likely that the worm, when in large numbers, may accelerate death in otherwise weakly birds. Tapeworm is very common in August, even in the very best birds killed. I cannot assign a cause for the disease in grouse, nor do I think that any one has yet dis covered the real cause of it; one thing certain is, that it always succeeds a year when grouse aro very plentiful, as they were last season. I have been head keeper here for the last 18 years. I have in that time seen as severe winters as the last was, and I have seen the heather in as bad condition, and no disease, but I never saw so many birds o❑ the ground as we had last year ; but disease attacked the birds the following spring, and this is the fourth time I have seen these moors cleared of birds from disease. The following are the years in which it proved most fatal : —1843; 1835, 1861, and 1867, and I have no doubt but that we shall have it again in 1873 or 1874." We might quote from numerous other letters, but they lead to no conclusion except the general one we had our selves arrived at a few months ago—viz., that whatever the disease may be, and however caused, it is extensively spread, and has been very fatal. All our correspondents agree on one point, and that is, that the disease began last year, but was neglected, or at least not thought to be of so much importance as to demand immediate attention, which is to be regretted. If the birds were weakened by slight disease in the spring of 1866, and then subjected to a hard autumn's shooting, it was not likely they would be in good condition to endure the severe winter and spring which ushered in the present year. It was about the latter end of February and beginning of March, as one of our cor respondents observes, that " the birds began to die literally in hundreds, the moors being sprinkled with them." Some correspondents of the sporting prints have contended that the sole cause of death is tapeworm, but many of the gentlemen who have communicated with us think it is due to liver complaint, and from the descriptions of the dead birds given by some of them we cannot help arriving at the conclusion that they must have imbibed poison from their food. Our Glenlivat correspondent says :—" The livers of all the birds I opened were very diseased, and crumbled away on being touched ; the lungs of a great number of the grouse were also affected, and their bowels in many cases were dreadfully inflamed." Another writer tells us that "the cause of death appears to be partly tape worm, but in eight cases out of ten the liver seems to be much diseased, and becomes rotten immediately after death. The birds generally show very little appearance of disease before death, which, I believe, takes place sud denly, or in a short time, as they have been seen to drop while upon the wing and expire in a moment, as if shot." The symptoms pointed out by our correspondents seem to denote poison as the cause of death, and the fact of the majority of the dead birds having been found near the watercourses tends to strengthen this impression. if the birds are poisoned, then, what is the nature of the poison ? "It is atmospheric," says one of the learned controver sialists. "It is lead poison," says another. "They are not poisoned ; they burst themselves with the young heather," says a third. "No, they don't," exclaims a fourth, "it is the sheep that are the cause of the mor tality." "You are all wrong together," says a fifth dis putant ; " the cause of the grouse disease is that the moors are overstocked with grouse !" Each disputant, too, can prove his case at least to his own satisfaction. Fortified with his array of facts the advocate of lead poisoning will not be put down ; it is of no importance to him that the same facts are made to serve to support a totally different theory. In grouse disease, as in everything else, many men have many minds; and every man, as is natural, asserts his own idea as the only true one. But in the end we believe our opinion will prevail, and we feel certain that the particular kind of poison that has caused the pre sent calamity will yet be discovered. Another point will also come to be better studied than it has hitherto been, And that is how far the destruction caused by the shooters affects the general health of the birds. It stanhdosttoorvesar son, we think, that if a moor is industriously s there will be many wounded birds left, and the grouse that and dogs. escape will be nearly frightened to death by If so, it is only reasonable to believe thatheru will yield bad progeny, and so weaken t feeuhnt bad b e r t o e brood h stock of the moors.

The average age of the peers whohave died is 61 years, as against 67 years during the Parliament of 1859-65. In the six years of Lord Palmerston's rule, during the last Parliament, ten peerages were created, as against 18 in the two years' existence of the present. The House of Commons has lost only 12 members by death—a number far below the average. The pro portion of deaths has been nine Liberals to three Conservatives:—Mr. G. R. Barry, 41 ; Mr. J. B. Dillon, 52 ; Hon. J. C. Dundas, 57 ; Mr. R. C. Hanbury, 43 ; Right Hon. Col. llcrbert, 50 ; Mr. F. G olds niid, 53 ; Lord Palmerston, 81; Mr. Schole 58 ; Col. L. Watkin, 63. Conservatives —Sir NI. Farquhar, 57 ; Mr. Lort Phillips, 55 ; Mr. Morgen Treherne, 64. Fourteen have become peers—nine by succession and five by creation. The M.P.'s who have gone to the Upper House by succession are the Hon. T. G. Baring, the Earl of Brccknock, Lord Burghley, llon. A. W. Cust, Hon. W. E. Dun combo, Hon. F. Lygon, Lord Stanhope, Hon. C. Trefusis, and the Earl of Tyrone. The five who have been called to the Upper house by patent are Col. Douglas-Pennant, Lord Henniker, SirlV. Jol liffe, Sir E. B. Lytton, and Sir C. Wood. Eleven are Conservatives and three are Liberals. Ten M.P.'s who were returned at the general election have resigned their seats. Seven are Conservatives— Major Cust, Mr. her, Sir E. Kerrison, Mr. llum phery, Mr. Leslie, Gen. Lindsay, and Mr. Miller. Three are Liberals—Sir D. Dundas, Capt. Gridley, and Mr. P. Scrope. Two Conservative members— Mr. Dowdeswell and Sir S. Northcote—have gone to other constituencies. Eleven members have va cated their seats on being appointed to office. Of these ten are Conservatives, and they have been raised to the Judicial Bench. Thus--Sir W. Bovill is Chief Justic of the Common Pleas, Sir H. Cairns Lord Justice of Appeal in Chancery, Mr. George Puisne Judge of the Irish Court of Queen's Bench, Sir F. Kelly Chief Baron of the Exchequer, Mr. Miller Judge in the Irish Court of Bankruptcy, Mr. Morris Puisne Judge in the Irish Court of Common Pleas, Mr. G. Patton Lord Justice Clerk of Scot land, Sir J. Rolt Lord Justice of Appeal, Mr. Walsh Master of the Rolls in Ireland, Mr. Whiteside Lord Chief Justice of Ireland. Only one Liberal ap pointment has been made, and that was when Lord Clarence Paget obtained the command of the Medi terranean fleet in May, 1866. Seventeen mem bers were unseated in the first session of this Par liament, in the proportion of 12 Liberals to five Conservatives. The Liberals were Sir J. Acton, Mr. a. Campbell, Sir R. Clifton, Mr. E. M. Fen wick, Sir H. Hoare, Mr. G. W. Leveson Gower, Mr. Labouchere (since returned for Middlesex), Mr. Morley, Mr. Parry (since re-elected for Bos ton), Mr. Pender, Mr. Schneider, and Mr. A. W. Young. Conservatives :—Mr. Ferrand, Mr. Flem ing, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Mills, and Mr. Westropp. Of the 56 new members of the House of Commons 32 are Conservatives, and 24 are Liberals. Besides these 48 re-elections have taken place on the accept ance of office-39 Conservatives and nine Liberals. The Conservative party has lost seven seats—viz., Aberdeenshire, Davenport (two), Bridgewater, Petersfield, Waterford, and Coventry. The Liberals have lost four—Brecon, Bridgnorth, Helston, and Sandwich. Twenty-five contested elections have t a k e n place in the two years-19 i n boroughs and six in counties. Struck by Lightning• The terrific thunderstorm which broke over this part of the country early on Tuesday morning has left traces of its violence. About half-an-hour aftof er t h e commencement of the storm the farm-house Mr. James Ward, which is situate on the top of the bill at Dalton Parva, near Rotherham, was struck by lightning and considerably damaged m ost entirely , while the furniture in tw o of the rooms was al destroyed. The lightning first caught the twn chimo of ney of the south end of the building, breakig the pots and cracking the tiles in every direction. The noise of the falling rubbish awakened Mr. Ward, and also his neighbours. Ile, however, had not the slightest idea of the extent of the calamity. On entering the front bedrooom, which, owing to Miss Ward being from home, was unoccupied, Mr. Ward was arnavd at the sight wich presented itself. The carpet wa s torn, a nd several articles of furniture broken and rendered useless. The electric fluid appeared to have descended the chimney and forced the fire-place completely out of its setting. It had also knocked a hole through the chimney on the south-east side, and striking an iron curtain rod, w hich by chance ha pp ened to be standing in the corner, it acted as a conductor to the lower room. Both ends of the rod were burnt as though they bad been in a smith's fire, the skirting board was charred, and several yards of the papering were torn from the walls. Every pane of glass in the south window was broken, a chair was projected to th e opposite side of the room, the top being knocked off, and the.wash-basin was smashed into a hundred pieces ; but, strange r to say, the dressing table on which it stood was uninjured. The hearth-stone was cracked across, but though a camp bedstead and a child's cot stood within a few inches they were not t o uched. The lower roomhe drawing room fared still worse. Hardly a single article escaped destruction. Af ter striking the iron rod in the chamber above the lightning again descended the chimney, making half a dozen holes in the sou ofthso - east wall, causing i t to have the appearance many rifle bullets being shot through. A half-re gister stove was displaced, and the fluid had play ed around the steel fireirons, the boards of the floor being c harred, the carpet burnt ; asmallbuffet covere d with re d Morocco leather spli t across. The pr i n ts on ono s ide of the wall were destroyed, the frames win being knocked into innum erable small pieces, and the dow, which was about three yards from the fireplace, was forced at least six inches out of its original position. It was protected with shutters on the inside, but these were also broken, and anothr frame inch would would have forced the entire window i n to the garden. C lose to the chimney corner was a small mahogany table on which were placed a number of books. This table was broken the hough it had been prepared for firewood, and books were thrown into every corner o f the room , the greater portion bein g torn as by th e teeth of ra ts. It is providential that none of the inmates were injured. Mr. Ward with his two children s lept at the west end of the building, while the housekeeper occupied one on the north side and a ma n-servant t h e other at the north- east corner. All of them were greatly alarmed at the terrific force with which the storm raged, and it is well for their peace of mind that they knew not until the thunder had abated what a narrow e scape from destruction they had had.—Sheffield Daily 7elegraph. A KEEN SIIAVER.—A native barber was charged before the acting chief magistrate on the 17th inst. with having stolen from the ear of one of his customers, a Mar waree, while in the act of shaving him, two pearls of con siderable value. Whilst manipulating the Marwaree the barber cunningly inquired if the pearls were genuine. The customer waxed indignant, and said Marwarees never wore false ornaments. The barber remarked the gold wire was a little crooked, and commenced to set it right. Shortly after the barber had gone t he Marwaree missed his pearls. His worship observed that the barber showed much adroit ness in the trick, and that he must have had some previous of experience in the busines s of shaving pearls off the ear his customers. He was sentenced to receive 25 stripes. Bombay Gazette.
