The Lords of the Admiralty continued their official inspection at Portsmouth yesterday. After their in spection of the Royal Marine Artillery on the previous evening the Board proceeded in their barge to inspect the Wye steam-vessel in the harbour, which has been fitted up as a condensing vessel for Balaklava by Mr. T. T. Grant, Controller of victualling. The steam was up on board, and the whole process of working was fully exhibited and explained to their lordships by Mr. John Davies, R.N., Master-Attendant of the Clarence Yard. On leaving their lordships went on board the Black Eagle. Yesterday morning the Board embarked in their barge at 10 o'clock, and landed at the Royal Naval Hospital at Hasler, where Captain-Superintendent Dacres, R.N., C. 8., and the medical staff received them and escorted them through the building. At noon they proceeded on a similar visit to the Clarence Victualling Establishment, also accompa nied by Captain Dacres, where they were received by Master Attendant Davies, Mr. Storekeeper Pinhorn, R.N., and other officials. The stores are all well sup plied with every kind of consumptive stock for the fleet, and all in admirable order and condition. The new slaughter-house was the chief object of inspection. At 2 o'clock their lordships embarked at the Queen's Stairs and proceeded to the water-gate entrance of the Royal Marine head-quarters at Gosport, on entering which they were received by Colonel-Commandant Fortescue Gra. ham, C. 8., A.D.C. to the Queen, and the officers of the division, which was drawn up in heavy marching order in line with the band and colours. After their lordships had passed through the ranks the battalion was formed in open column of divisions, and marched past in review order ; and, although but recently brought into batta lion formation, all the movements were executed in a correct and precise manner. A visit was then made by their lordships to one of the pavilions of the men's quarters, through which they passed, wh ence they adjourned to the office of the 'Colonel-Commandant, and inspected the( books of the division ; after this they adjourned to luncheon with the Colonel and officers in the grand mess-room, where the band played. On quitting the Royal Marine Barracks the Board of Admiralty proceeded to her Majesty's ship Excellent, and witnessed experimental shell practice, concentrated broadside firing, &c., under the direction of Captain Sir Thomas Maitland, C.B. From the gunnery instruction ship their lordships proceeded on board her Majesty's ship Illustrious, Captain Harris, the training-ship for novices for the Royal Navy, finishing with a visit to her Majesty's ship Victory, and inspecting the boys (ap prentices to the service), &c. Yards were manned, and all the manceuvres incidental to a seaman's training for service were exhibited to their lordships, with which they expressed their entire satisfaction. In the evening they attended a ball at the Seamen and Marines' Or phan Schools, Portsea,in aid of the funds of that charity, which was well patronised. Among the numerous visitors who have inspected tbo factory departments of the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich it is a remarkable fact that no one has appeared to take an interest in viewing and thoroughly understanding the mechanical routine of the department to the degree evinced on Wednesday by Lord Palmerston. The offi cers who accompanied him were fearful at the commence ment that the circuit of the whole establishment must be fatiguing, and consequently not tube attempted, but his lordship expressed his desire to go through the whole, in all of which he evinced an interest seldom or never witnessed there, and displayed an extraordinary amount of judgment in many matters connected with the foundries which astonished his attendants. In wit nessing the casting of some segments for traversing plat forms he remained with his watch in hand to note the time required in their construction, so as to retain a prac tical knowledge, as it were, of these matters. On being shown the split mortars from the Baltic his lordship was sensibly struck with what he was convinced was a very inferior metal. From the Arsenal they repaired to the Marshes to witness the firing off of 6 of Capt. Boxer's para chute shells. Evening had already set in, and the little fairy-like lights hovering in the air were beautifully dis played and seen to great advantage, in which there was not a single failure. The Stella, Captain Smith, sailed yesterday morning from Woolwich arsenal with ammunition, artillery wag gons, and general merchandise for Constantinople. A large number of water carts have been shipped for the use of the troops. The barrels are fitted with screws as well as taps, so as to render them efficient not only for conveying water, but also to act as pontoons, if requisite. Her Majesty's paddle-wheel-steamer Avon, of 361 tons (tender to the flag-ship Impregnable at Devonport), sailed on Wednesday from Woolwich with machinery for Plymouth. In consequence of alleged breach of duty, on Tuesday last, by the senior Lieutenant of Royal Marines, J. C. Knight, of the frigate Castor, 36, now in Plymouth Sound, who is charged with having gone on shore con trary to the orders of his superior officer, a court-martial is to be held to-day (Friday) or to-morrow. The frigate is bound to the Cape of Good Hope, and this circum stance will detain her probably until Monday, The Urgent, iron screw steam storelsbip.. Commander Phillips, completed her engine machinery department yesterday at° Sheerness, and is ordered to proceed on a trial trip on Monday next. The crew of the Siren, 16 guns, Commander Otway, have been paid their advance, and are now waiting orders to leave for the Brazilian station. The Alban, 4 guns, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, Lieu tenant Commander W. E. Fisher, has been taken into the fitting-basin at Sheerness to make good defects, which !will occupy about 14 days, when she will again proceed to Heligoland to convey volunteers for the Fo reign Legion. The African steam-vessel and the Lizard steam-vessel, Lieutenant T. B. Christopher, have been taken into the fitting-basin at Sheerness to make ,good damage and defects. The Princess Alice, iron paddle-wheel steam-vessel, arrived at Sheerness on Wednesday, with despatches from the Baltic, and left yesterday for Woolwich. Improvements in Sheerness yard are being carried out on a very extensive scale by Messrs J. and C. Rigby, of Westminster, contractors, under the superintendence of Mr. W. J. Caldwell. They have commenced erecting a jetty to the entrance of the great fitting basin, at the sea or harbour frontage, where there will be from 20 to 22 feet of water at high tide. It has been found necessary , to erect this jetty to give greater facilities and security in the transport of men-of-war in and out of the fittins, basin. Th e j e tt y w i ll consist of about 150 piles. Thu deck or platform will consist of whole timber beams, on which will be laid 4-inch deck plank with two powerful capstans, with leading-blocks, &c., for the securityof transport. A new foundry is also to be erected, and an extensive enlargement of the yard smithery, capable of employing at least 250 men, The new boiler shop, of 224 feet by 111 feet, is now quite complete and in full operation. Various other minor improvements are being carried out. By a recent Admiralty circular, issued to all captains and commanders of cruisers through the respective Corn manders-in•Chief, Port-Admirals, &0., it is ordered that all Prussian vessels are to be permitted to pass unmo lested with cargoes of gunpowder bound to Rotterdam, The Prussians are availing themselves of this order, or rather indulgence, to a very considerable extent. It haw been asked, wh at i s the destination * of the powder after it passes through Holland ? In consequence of the great number of boys who have of late volunteered for continuous service in the navy the Admiralty have issued orders th at no more b 3, shall be entered, unless they have been emp loyed o bit y i s board some barge or other sailing vessel. No. 7 Company, 13th Battalion, of the Royal Artil lery, in garrison at Sheerness, under command of Capt. Cannon, are ordered to hold themselves in readiness for immediate embarkation for Corfu. The company con sists of one captain, two subalterns, and 136 rank 'and file, with 8 women. Daily draughts of artillerym en are sent from Sheerness to Shoeburyness for mortar and heavy gun practice. A party of invalids from regiments in the Crimea ar rived on Wednesday at Chatham from the hospital at Chichester, including non-commissioned officers, 25 in number ; they are all wounded. Among them was Robert Clinton, a native of Scotland, a private of the 88th, who is blind ; both eyes were knocked out by a ball passing through the head ; it entered under the left eye, close by the nose, and went out under the right ear ; be is only nineteen years of age, and is taken into the General Hospital to be surgically attended. Private Downard, 3d Buffs, who came home with the above, is insane ;he is also at Fort Pitt. The ,remainder were sent to the invalid depot. Twenty-eight invalid soldiers arrived at Chatham yes terday from Portsmouth, in charge of Captain Richard Thomas, 7th Foot. They came from Scutari by the ship Colombo. They are all wounded, and must be discharged from the service. The General Court-martial which assembled on Mon. day, the 10th inst., in the camp at the Curragh of Kil dare, for the trial of Lieutenant A. B. M`Causland, of the 75th Armagh Light Infantry Regiment, re-assem bled on Monday last, when the trial was proceeded with. The whole of the day was occupied in the examination of the accused witnesses, and on Tuesday morning Lieutenant M`Causland read an address in his defence. Lieutenant -Colonel Caulfield, M.P., the prosecutor, re plied, and the Court was cleared to consider its finding, which has not as yet transpired. Colonel Loftus, 3d West York Regiment of Militia, was president ; Mr. John Endle Officiated as deputy judge-advocate, and Mr. William Barker Kaye, barrister-at-law, attended on behalf of Lieutenant M'Cau-slands The CHAIRMAN, in moving the reception and adoption of the report, called attention to several points of detail, contrasting it with the past and the future prospect of the company. He took a cursory view of the traffic during the past five years, the last half-year giving only an increase of 635 persons over that of 1854, which was to be attributed not to any opposition by a more favou red route, but from those causes that had affected all the lines of the kingdom—the pressure of the war. The absence of the military from Ireland had made a great difference in the numbers of persons travelling to and from that country (officers and their friends visiting them), giving a decrease of 2,2791. Bs. for passengers on the line, and 2,7221. 18s. by the boats. In the goods department there had been a steady increase during the half-year ending June 30, 1855, compared with 1854, of 27,378 tons, and of rates amounting to 5,6311. 15s. The increase of expenditure had been 1,1311., giving a net increase of 4,6001. against the falling off on the pas senger traffic. During the time he had filled the chair the passenger traffic had doubled, and the goods traffic bad trebled. He next adverted to the accounts, which he said had been presented in a more extensive manner than formerly, at the request of the proprietors. He entered into the details of increase and deerease of ex penditure, and in reference to the items for law expenses and compensation for accidents, said that juries returned their verdicts in such cases rather in accordance with the rank of the person who met with the accident than by an estimate of the carelessness of the Company who might have occasioned the accident. When first he accepted the chair, he felt there was only one way by which they might hope to receive a dividend— that of increased rate, and from them an increased divi dend. (Hear, hear.) In the rapidity of the develop ment of the resources of the line he had been grievously disappointed, although he had never for a moment doubted what they were, and if he had been thrown out a little in his sanguine expectations of an earlier realisation of his ardent hopes and wishes, he learnt from the report of the Committee of Shareholders there was still a hope of their future satisfactory development. (sear, hear.) He looked forward to the arrangements about to be carried out between the company and the London and North-Western Company as the best that could be done for the interest of the shareholders of the Chester and Holyhead line, which ought never to have been a separate undertaking from the London and North-Western. He believed the true problem to be solved by railway companies was, to get as much as they could out of the public, but not to ask too much, and deter them from using their lines, which would not be doing business at the best advantage. He felt, when in business, if he could not get a good profit it was best to be satisfied with a moderate profit—but one he always would have, which he thought also applicable to railways. He next adverted to the effect rates had upon dividends, contrasting the English with the Continental lines, explaining that the latter paid better dividends on account of the small cost of their construction, and the fostering care they met with from the Government, whereas in this country the cost of construction was high, and the policy of Parliament to wards railways oppressive and suicidal. After a few other remarks with referenee to the London and North- WesternMailway and the Chester .and Holyhead Rail way, and the works constructed at Holyhead, and again impressing on the meeting his belief that the arrange ments they were about to enter into with the London and North-Western Company would be for the benefit of the shareholders in the' Cheater and Holyhead Rail way, concluded by moving the resolution he 'had pro posed, which, having been seconded, was, after a very short discussion, unanimously agreed to. A. dividend of 12s. 9d. on the original preference shares was agreed'to. Thanks were then voted to the committee of share holders and to the chairman and board of directors, and the meeting terminated. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS. WORS HIP - STREET.—Arespectibly-dressed elderl person named William Newton, who described himSe; as a surgeon, was brought up on suspicion of having wilfully set fire to a house which he occupied, in Well ington-street, Kingsland-road. Mr. Charles Johnson, a brass finisher, living in the same street, said--I am the owner of the house, which I let to the prisoner about six weeks or two months since. Shortly before 12 o'clock last night I was roused from sleep by a loud disturbance in the street, and, on run ning out, I observed the prisoner's house was on fire. I immediately sent off for the engines, several of which soon afterwards arrived, but every effort to extinguish the fire proved unsuccessful, and the house was. cOui pletely destroyed in less than two hours. Mr. Edward Dix, an inkstand manufacturer, living opposite to th e prisoner; said—About half-past 11 o'clock last Light I saw the prisoner leave the house in a hur ried manner, and be had only proceeded a few yards when I observed a strong reflection of light through an apertUre in the shutters of his parlour window on the ground floor. I instantly raised an alarm, and on forcing open the door, with the assistance;of some of the neighbours, discovered that the flames had caught the whole of the wood work and wainscoting Of the parlour, every portion of which was on fire. After an ineffectual attempt to check the' progress of the fire, we directed our e ff or t s t o e ff ect the rescue of a with& and her three children, who were sleeping in the front romp of the first floor, and fortunately succeeded in saV, ing their lives by lowering them down from the windolw at the moment the flames were bursting through 'the ceiling. I saw no more of the prisoner until 9 o'clock this morning, when I recognised him amongst the crowd who were looking on at the smoking ruins. I immediately went up to him, and asked him what lie meant by leaving the place as be had done; when he must have known that it was on fire, to which the pri soner replied that he knew nothing at all about it and r •he was then given into custody. Edward Wm. Dix, son of the last witness, fully corro borated his father's evidence, and added that between 1 and 2 o'clock in the morning be met the prisoner in a narrow passage in the immediate neighbourhood, and heard a little boy inform him that his house was on fire, to which he replied, in a suppressed voice, with the exclamation "Hush !" and taking the boy by the arm he led him out of sight. Police constable Warnes, N 370, stated that upon taking the prisoner into custody be said he had been drinking rather freely at the time, and that he knew no thing of the fire, which had evidently broken out while he was taking a walk about the neighbourhood, accord ing to his usual custom. The prisoner earnestly protested his innocence, and said that the fire must have been occasioned by a spark from the candle, which he blew out on leaving the house, and that he was himself a grievous sufferer from the ca lamity, as he was not insured, and had lost every article he possessed. Mr. Hammill remanded the prisoner, for a week, but he accepted his own recognisance. George Sims, a labourer at the Docks, was charged with the following scandalous conduct towards his wife and daughter : From the statement of both the complainants, it ap peared that the defendant was in the constant practice of returning home at night in a state of mischievous drunkenness, and destroying every attempt he could perceive they were making to earn their own sustenance, hi s w if e b e i ng a laundress and his daughter a sempstress. On all occasions he studiously avoided laying hands upon them, observing that he should not relish a six months' imprisonment. On Wed nesday, however, he rather overstepped these bounds by threatening the life of his wife witk a table knife, from which she with difficulty escaped, and threw her self into the hands of the police. The daughter in tears exhibited an expensive silk dress entrusted to her for making, which had been torn to pieces by the forswearde rt.heu damagedad n m k ill f for ii e ld v k e he r eh . : fondant. The defendant said if he was forgiven now he would that keep the peace for a twelvemonth and directed u l s d t b find paidg o goadfor b from i n the two poor box. o r r e : u e box. • • On Wednesday afternoon, about half-past four o'clock, the attention of police-constable 438 A. was called to a house in Queen's-place, Commercial-road East, Ratcliff, and several persons informed him that a most unplea sant effluvium issued from the dwelling, and they sus pected some one had been murdered there. The con stable, whose heat is in Clerken well, and who was merely passing Queen's-place on an errand, immedi ately waited on Pemble, the beadle and sommoning officer of the hamlet of Ratcliff, who proceeded to the ,house in company of several of the parochial functiona ries and others, and, having gained admission into the house at the rear, entered a room on the first floor, where he discovered the body of a woman lying on her , face on the floo r . It was i n an advanced stage of de composition ; part of the face was eaten away by mag gots, and the odour was so offensive that, before Pew ble could approach the body, it was necessary to use disinfecting substances, and to destroy the enor mous quantity of maggots on the floor. Dr Orton, of White Hnrse-street, Stepney, was called in to examine the body, and he stated that in his opinion the woman had been dead 15 or 16 days. The body was placed in a shell, and now awaits a coroner's inquest. Pemble took possession of several wills and papers in the room where the body is lying, from which it appears that the deceased is the widow of George Healy, formerly of Penves-green, Watford, Hefts, who was the son of George Richard Healy, of Piccots-end, Hemel-Hemp. stead, in the same county. From the contents of a will, dated June 14, 1814, it appears that considerable pro perty, situated in and near Watford and Hemel-Hemp stead, and in Petty France, 'Westminster, was bequeathed to the husband of the deceased. Pemble also ascertained that, about two months ago, a person, representing him self as Dr. Hall, of the Old Ker.t-road, Surrey, hired the house in Queen's-place of a Mr. Maddox, the landlord, who is residing at No. 15, Assembly-place, Mile-end road, and said be intended to practice in the district, and to dispense medicines in the shop. The house was re paired a id painted, the pretended doctor paid 151. in ad vance for a quarter's rent, and brought the deceased to the house, and hinted that she was to be his wife. One day the deceased went out with the "doctor," who is described by the neighbours' as a "Jewish-looking ras cal," and hired a woman living in Ashton-street, Sal mon's-lane, Lime-house, to take charge of the premises in Queen's-place. The same woman states that she for merly knew the deceased as a respectable lady, residing at No. 7, Hard wick-place, Commercial-road. About six months ago, the deceased waited on Mr. Williams, the landlord of the Queen's head public house in York square, Ratcliffe, and asked him to look at several wills and papers which she said entitled her to an immense property. Mr. Williams had neither inclination or time to peruse the papers, and returned them to her. There is no doubt, from the information derived by Pemble, that the deceased has been moving iu respectable society, and that the pretended doctor had promised her mar riage. Inquiries were made after him by Inspector Sullivan, of the K division, and Sergeant Smith, a de tective officer, No. 28 K, who went to the address he gave to Mr. Maddox, and he was unknown there. The two officers were engaged until a late hour last night in endeavouring to trace Doctor Hall, but without success. The general impression is that the deceased has been poisoned. There. was no appearance of the deceased having been destitute. The room in which the body was found contained butter, sugar, coffee, and bread. The deceased, who appears to have been about 32 years of age, was well dressed, and had her bonnet on when dis covered in the state described. There was two band boxes, two chairs, cooking utensils, and china jars in the room 'where the body was lying ; but the remainder of the house was not furnished. The affair is enveloped in the greatest mystery, and there is every reason to suppose that the deceased has met with her death un fairly.

MURDER IN DERBYSHIRE. On Wednesday last, Mr. Coroner Whiston held an inquest on the body ofJarnes Ratcliffe, a stocking maker, 0 2 c 2 c y a s e i a o r a s e d o f a by g t e h , e w v h i o o l s e e n ce death, o f i i t w William am a s Clarke,a l l alleged, h a , ad labourer.been About half-past 11 o'clock, on the night of Saturday, the 15th instant,tdeceased and Clarke were at Mrs. Pearson's, the New Inn, Horsley Woodhouse, when a quarrel ensued amongst some of the corn . pdny . about a sixpence. Ratcliffe got up to prevent the disturbance, when Clarke attacked him by seizing him by the hair of the head, and attempting to strangle him. A person named John Brown parted them, and a constable being sent for the room was immediately cleared. Subse• quently,, whilst the parties were on the road, a person named Cockeram said to Clarke, "Ratcliffe is wanting you, for you've.been throttling him." Clarke replied, "I shall not fight him in the dark. I will fight him by daylight, but if be begins I have something in my pocket that will quiet him.", Shortly. afterwards Ratcliffe went towards Clarke, as if he intended to strike him. At this time Clarke had his right hand in his side coat-pocket; he drew it, out, and the two struggled together for a short time, ;when Clarke fell to the ground. Ratcliffe then went towards his home;and Cockeram, following him, heard, him tell,his mother that he was stabbed. He was carried home, and it was then discovered that he was deeply cut in the stomach. Mr. Bowdon, sur geon, of Smalley, was sent for, but the deceased died on Tuesday last from the wound. The jury, after a careful investigation, returned a verdict of ' Wilful murder against Clarke." , SHARE MARKETS. LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 20.
