Where Aldgate Pump suspends its iron bowl, A far-fanned poet took his morning stroll ; And as Ile neathl the venerable pump, Which long has braved the weather like a trump, A stranger's voice let plaintive accents bid The poet top'— and stop the poet •did. Then turning round to east, west, mirth and south, He found the voice was from a watery mouth. "Stay, gentle laureate of the Prince of Trade, ' And listen while my few remarks are made - . I've often wondered Why you never sing Of ancient Ahlgate's celebrated spring. You need not fear a theme like this to choose, I would not throw cold water on your muse.

'Tis thine to rise in a Idgate's noted-part, Where busy thousands flock to MOSES' Mart. You have the honour of beholding there MOSES and SON'S astonishing affair.

And well yon know they'd keep the wa , or, out, If even placed beneath your drenching spout. You've also seen TO I , : HOSIERY OF MOSES, Where net her price nor qu•dity imposes.

SUMMARY OF THE TOOTING CHOLERA CASES.— It appears evident from the medical inspector's (Mr. Grainger's) reports to the Board of Health, that the open ditches and other abomitnations in the neighbour hood of Mr. Drouet's establishment for pauper children, at Lower Tooting, together with the crowding of nearly 1,400 children into an improperly planned, ill-ventilated, and incommodious establishment, were predisposing causes, which, together with the epidemic condition of the atmosphere, produced so many cues of cholera among the children. Doubtless, too, pauper fare was an additional prEdisposing cause, otherwise the evil might have afftctEd others in the same unwholeioree vicinity, where moats of 'oul black putrefaction show an open surface of between 40,000 and 50,000 squareft to the face of day. Shortly previous to the ou break, one of the fbul ditches near the premises was emptied, and the filthy mud spread upon the banks in contravention of the regulations of the Board of Health, a circumstance quite sufficient of itself to explain the predispoSition of these children, in par, feeler, to such au attack in such a neighbourhood.--Builder.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how mauy could it be traced to Physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and conseauence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is sublect. This - work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attentien and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health and of the physical capabilities of wkich every man should be possessed. It unfertunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap ply-inf„ to a qualified ehysician for relief. Shame and the dread so requently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach 05 art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the eauscs of tisease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the Intelligent and practical physician, and to the :aiedical man who can show by lsi posse,sion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MEIiT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his eliplomas 'ertity, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a marantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

TANWOETH, FRIDAY.--The annual meeting of the subscribers and friends of the Tamworth library and reading-room was held this morning, at the library, in Lichfield -street. Some interest was attracted to the proceedings in consequence of its having been announced that Sir Robert P, el would occupy the chair. The Right Hon. Baronet arrived at the library aeon after twelve o'clock, and immediaely took the honeureible position which had been assigned to him. The-re was a large attendance of the geealemen of the town and neigh • buurhood. • The report of the society 's proceedings for the last year havi ng b een rea d, t he comm i ttee and other officers of the institution wero re-appointed. At the conclusion of the formal business of the day, the Rev. Mr. it.d ge moved, and Mr. Knight seconded, a vote of thanks to Sir Hebert Peel, for his attendance and his able con duct in the chair. The resolution was carried amidst applause. Sir ROBERT PEEL, in acknowledging the vote, said ht was much gratifies by the kind feelieg evinced towards him, and the cordial manner is which the rneetiete had acquiesced in the resolution proposed. He was afraid, however, that the situation which he had the honour to fill as their president made no great call . or the exercise of ability ; but he could assure them that he had watched the progress of the institution with the deepest interest. It would be recollected that at the tune the library wss established great objections were taken to its formation, because, as it was urged, of its discon nection with religion. Now, at the time, he (Sir Robert Peel) felt confident that the diffusion of know ledge, so far from having an injurious effect, would be the surest means of assuaging personal and political animosities, find new sources of enjoyment for the people, further the cause of morality, and strengthen the very foundations of religion it self. To those who urged this objection he might read the following passage from the report:— " The Lumber of volumes issued during the year amounts to 5,009, being an increase of 1,851 above the issue of the preceding year. Of the books thus circulated 843 have been taken out by first-class subscribers, 986 by she s, cad class, aid 3,180 by the third class." That he (Sir Robert Peel) considered to be a conclusive proof • that the interests of morality had not been injuree by the establishment of this library and teading-reem.— (Hear.) Li connexion with the eubject of education, hr might mention that he was about to enlarge the founda tion of the school which his father had most Lber endowed, and .by that means he hoped greatly to con duce to the improved education of the youth of the town and the welfare of the institution. He thanked man) gentlemen then present for the kind assistance the) had rendered him in the promotion of this object. Arrangements were in contemplation, and nearly complete, by which ho hoped considerable good e cult be conferred upon the inhabitants of the town.—(The Hon. Baronet sat down, but after a pause again rose.; It had struck him that there were gentlemen present e he might be absent from another meeting in the town which he should attend that evening. He would, therefore, addrses the tele observations (he intended then to offer, upon the first occasion. His father, as they were aware, had endowed a school in that town for the education of he poor, with an rnnual income of 170/. per annum. Heat SUM it was clear his lather intended should be ep rropeiated exclusively to the education of tae pour. With that sum I ts (Sir Robert Peel) proposed to do no sheuid be appropriated to its original de sign ; nut he did propose to increase the means of giving to ,h e youth of the middle, as well as to the pourer, elusees of the town a moral and religious education. Now, it always struck him (Sir Robert Peel) that while, by public institutions or otherwise, provhio, was made few ti,e education of the poor, the class im intediately above them were placed in a diseilvautageous situation. If a tradesman or gentleman in the middle anks of life was desirous of giving to his son a goon education, he could not place bins at a boarding school under a pe)ment of at least 201. or 301. per annum. ibis had a most unfortunate effect. The education of the lei•ouring poor %vas, by such institutions as those to e !tide. he ref, rued, rendered complete, while that of the yauth of the middle class was comparatively negl, e•ei„ if licit fareotten. It he (Sir Robert Peel) could, there tere, make the endowment of his fattier available for the middle, and still more advantageous than at present l'or the purer classes, he thought he should be conk'• rig g a great ben, fit upon the town. He would tell them what he proposed to do. He would put the school it connexion Keith the Privy Council ; and first he would be well assured as to the moral character and competent qualifications of the schoolmaster. He bad, therefore, written to Mr. Moseley, one of l the inspectors of schools, to assign to him, from one of the training schools, it com• petent master. When last in London, he hart had written and personal communications with Mr. Mese ley and others connected with the Board of Privy Council upon, that subject. The feet was he (Sir R. Peel) knew the de. ceit of testimonials; he would rather have a master wle, had rased regularly through the ordeal of a training school. Be told Mr. Moseley that he would guarantee a liberal salary if he would insure the appointment of a first-rate master. Mr. Moseley informed him that the call for masters was great—that many were induced. after passing through training schools—to enter intr. the — r te.,- of aseeehants.—end 'was ti,w zn,prlL he e eies given to education had created a great demand for their services. The Right Hon. Baronet proceeded at some length to enter into the regulations of the Board of Education, and probable benefit which might accrue t, masters when appointed in advantageous localities. He (Sir Robert Peel) told Mr. Moseley- that he would gua rantee 701. per annum, and lot. annually for house rent, in addition to what the master might obtain by pupil teachers. Yesterday's post brought him a letter in which Mr. Moseley stated that he had found such a master as was required, and he (Sir Robert Peel) in tended by that evening's post to sanction his appoint ment. The salary ho proposed to guarantee, together with the amount derived from pupil teachers, would, he hoped, produce him an adequate income. He (Sir R. Peel) had also made some provision for the old master, whose long services entitled him to great consi deration. He proposed that there should be two classes in the school. First, the poor, on the foundation, who sheuld wear a suitable dress, and who should be selected out of the town, on the ground of good behaviour, either of the parents or the child. Another clas should con sist of children whose parents paid a email sum for their education. Ile invited the tradesmen of the parish of Tamworth, the farmers, and the shopkeepers, to give to their children in this school a first-rete education. Ile did not propose to provide a classical education, but en education in all necessary branches of knowledge— geography, natural philosophy, history, and erithmetic. For this education he proposed that the charge should he not more than 10s. per quarter, or 21. per annum. This rate of charge for such a kind of education would be ex tremely moderate. The wholeof the amount received from this source it was intended to appropriate to the further extension of the education of the poor. That was the prin ciple uiJoil which he proposed to act—its success would mainly del end upon the paying scholars. He, hewever, entertained the greatest hope of ultimate success. In Hampshire it had eminently succeeded, and in course of time he had little doubt but in Tamworth it would be attended with equally beneficial results. He did not know that he could have selected a more appropriate oc casion term the present on which to introduce the subject. He might state, in conclusion, that as the school was criginulty founded in connexion with the Established Church, so would it continue to be. He (Sir R. Peel) hoped that those present would talk with their neighbours upon the subject—that they would point out the advan teges of a sound moral and religious education, and the cheap means by which it might now be speedily obtained. Although the school would be under the Privy Council, ho (sir R. Peel) should also appoint local inspectors, who, upon their visits, would have the opportunity of as_ certaining the mode in which it was conducted. In con clusion, Sir Robert, in answer to a question put by the Rev. R. Taylor, said he did not see, if the means would justify it, why the advantages of the school should not be extended to the neighbouring parishes. The meeting then broke up. Sir Robert Peel dines with tine Mayor and Corporation in the Town Hall this evening. TAMWORTIL FRIDAY MIDNIGHT. This evening an elegant entertainment was given by the Mayor, Mr. Anson, to Sir Robert Peel, Captain Townshend, the Clergy and Magistrates of the bo rough, the Members of the Town Council, and about seventy other gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood. The Mayor presided, and was supported by Sir R. Peel, Mr. tirammell, the Rev. F. Morse, and on the left by Capt. Townshend, Mr. E. B. Hamel!, Mr. Fowler, &c. The dinner was supplied by Mr. Rhodes, of the King's Arms. After the usual loyal toasts, which were drunk with the greatest enthusiasm, The MAYOR gave, " The Bishop and Clergy of the Diocese," which was responded to by the Rev. F. MonsE: The MAYOR, in proposing the " Army and Navy," expressed a hope that they would not soon be called upon to light our battles, but was sure, whenever their services were required, they would not tarnish the lustre of their renown.—(Cheers.) Captain TOWNSTIEND returned thanks for the navy. He believed there never was a time when it was more necessary that Um navy should be in a state of efri.ciency. His opinion was—and ho heard it in all quarters, from those who had lately served—he heard it very recently from the eon of the Right Hon. Baronet, who, though a young man, was a very good judge of what should be, and as good an officer as the service could boast of— (Cheers)—that the navy never was in a better state; and he was quite sure it was not only the interest, but the wish of the country that it should be so.—(Cheers.) Ile did hope and trust—he also firmly believed—that no Government would, ever reduce the navy below the proper amount of force, and that care would b e , take:) , that their ships should b e f u lly maimed. If the navy were allowed to dwindle too low, no one coulddet most ll/10 soon it would be necessary to have recourse to had that ry 11, a i bh some odious system of impres s ment. Mr. Cob theory about reducin g the expenditure of the count certain number of millions a year, and e succeeded in his pr. sent attempt, be would no doubt be a very great man —greater even thee the Right Hon. Baronet on the other side of the mayor—(' laugh)—but a e 1) —but it was impossible he could succeed; end in although Mr. Cobden had sneered at the en r lhich reflected on his own a a . cha racter for peel s ense, l ie (Captain Townshend) did not believe be had any idea that he would succeed in the [PRICE SD. object of his present agitation. If the country were polled to morrow, scarcely one would be found who would not say, " Let the navy be kept up to a state of perfect fliciencye"—(Cheers.) The MAYOR then sail, he had now to propose the healths of " the Members fur the Borough."--(Loud ch, ers.) Ile greatly rejoiced to have the opportunity of giving such a toast, and le warmly congratulated his iellow to ensmen on the proud pesition they held in being so ably represented in the Commons' House of Parliament.—(Cheers.) Their senior Member had a fame il'ustrious and world-wide.—(Cheers.) He must be regarded as the forem ist man in a period which had been remarkable fer commercial reforms and social pregreseion.— (Loud cheers ) Of their j uni.ir Member no might say at least he would always be found at his p at ready to uphold the best interests of the country. Ile had much pleasure in proposing the healths of the Right Hon. Baronet Sir Rebell Pea :and Captain Toweehend, the Members fur the borough of Tam worth. The toast was drunk with three times three. Sir R. PEEL in rising was received with renewed cheers. Ile said, lam sure the Members for the bo rough must be greatly gratified by the manner in which you have received the proposal of the chair, and as my worthy colleague is so well qualified to return his own aiiknowledgmente, I shall limit myself to the expression of my thanks fur the honour you have done me. I feel great obligations, which I think I share with you, to the Mayor, for giving us an opportunity of meeting on this occasion.—(Cheers.) It reminds me of former times— it reminds me of those festivities which we used to enjoy before the period of municipal reform.—(A laugh.) Gentlemen, I supported municipal reform, and I have not a word to say against the advantages it conferred upon the public; but I must say I think it was a very great evil that it interrupted those convivial meetings we wed to have in this hail.—(Cheers.) I do, therefore, hope the good example which has been set by our excel lent Mayor will be closely followed by his successors, and that he will have the honour of reviving the custom of assembling together the chief inhabitants of the borough to pay their respects to the head of the corpora :ion. Now, I shall cautiously abstain from saying one single word which can discourage the revival of such a eustotr. I shall bear in mind that this is not a political meeting—this is not a meeting in which our harmony is co he disturbed by any reference to party politics.— eas.) I have been in this room when it was the „Toper object of the meeting that there should be the expression of strong political opinions. —(Cheers.) I nave not shrunk from availing myself of the opportunity of expressing those opinion , , but this is not an occasion on which I am called upon to say a word in reference to politics; this is an occasion on which I think the intro duction of them would be altogether unsuitable; there 'ore, with your permission, I will avoid all reference to .hem. I must say, that even in times of much greater perry excitement and political feeling than at present prevails, and even at tine. s when I have felt ouch deeper interest than I now do in party conflicts, I had always much greater pleasure in dwelling upon those topics on which wo were all agreed than in referring to others which had a tendency to excite personal or party hostility-- (Cheers)—and there are topic's on which we are all agreed, whatever may be our party connexions. Whatever our differences ou political subjects, I an sure there prevails amongst us II a sincere desire to promote the interests of this town and its neighbourhood, and, above all, to advance the social and moral improvement of those with whom we ore connected.—(:.;beers.) Now, as I intend to adhere ro my resolution of abstaining altogether from any re ference to political topics, it is not very easy, perhaps, to end . any subj ec t connected with merely local interests of cient importance to attract the attention of a purely convivial meeting; but there is one matter to which I must call your attention. I think it is impossible not to e,l that there prevails throughout this country an earnest desire to promote sound, moral, and religious ..ducetion amongst the lower ord , rs of the community. A grit at and most successful effort is in progress to redoes the time that has been lost, to found obedience to the law and loyalty to the Throne upon something bet ter than the mere terror of penal enactments,—upon a rational conviction of the aitv which we owe to God and man, and the advan ages we enjoy under the constitution we have the hap piness to possess.—(Cheere.) I fear whilst the effort is made, and successfully made, to promote education erucegst the working and labouring classes of the coin inuei-y, equal attention is not paid to the intellectual aip - ovemeut of the class which is elevated by its poei tion above the working and labouring classes ; the middle classes of the country have not the same com parative advantages which the labouring classes have with respect to education; and, depend upon it, if that disadvantage be not removed, and that inequality as to education be not redressed, evil consequenees will ensue; you will have the position and relation of great classes of the community reversed; you will have the :ower class more intelligent—possessing more of that power which results from knowledge than the class which is above it. I think you will agree with me, that it will be a great advantage that the children of .he middle class, who aro hereafter to constitute the great strength of this country, should have equal means reeintaining their eetesicos radoens, and should be aefi: by the tq l , -,-eunities of sound and moral and reit aious education. The Right lion. Baronet then, at ;reat length, detailed the new scheme he meant' to adopt in the :01001 founded by the late Sir R. Peel, and called upon his fellow -townsmen to give their zealous issistance in carrying it out. He concluded by saying, —Depend upon it, these are the times when the ,übjiTts of real importance are subjects like these. The example we have recently had, when we saw how the middle classes of this country rallied round the throne, at a time when other thrones were shaken, and fear prevailed throughout all nations,—we are bound, I think, maturely to consider, now the danger is past, in what way we can promote their social im provement, together with the physical comforts of the humbler classes of the community. (Cheers.) I have the deepest conviction that I shall meet with your cordial consent and, I trust, also with your co-operation, in carrying the system I have pro posed into effect.—(Cheers.) I have had the greatest gratification in all the relations I have maintained with ou. There is no reflection more gratifying to me than hat in every proposition which has been made tending to promote the comfort or the improvement of the humbler classes of this town and neighbourhood, I have always received the most zealous co-operation and aid ;row the class of gentlemen I am now addressing.— (Cheers.) That concert and co-operation will, I am convinced, still continue in promoting the plans I have Auggested.—(Loud cheers.) Captain TOWNSUEND next returned thanks for the honour done him in drinking his health. Sir H. PEEL afterwards, in a highly eulogistic speech, proposed the health of the Mayor, who returned thanks. Sevcrsl other toasts were drunk, several very good songs were sung, and the company separated shortly utter eleven o'clock. THE DEATHS FROM CHOLERA AT TOOTING. Yesterday Mr. Waltley, M.l'., resumed in the board rcom of the Chelsea Workhouse, the adjourned inquest on M•irtha Pullington, Mary Kelliek, George Hartley, and Emma Ingus, children who died in the workhouse of cholera after their removal from Mr. Drouet's. The board-room was crowded, and amongst those present were Messrs. Bague, R.N., France, and Froud, magistrates ; Messrs. Rider, Fielder, Hull, &e., guardians ; and the Rev. Mr. Irons. Emma Ingus proved the death of her child from cholera, and that her child had not a sufficiency of food, but of which witness was afraid to complain, lest she might have got her child into trouble. James Kellick stated that his daughter, the deceased, and another of his children, had been at Mr. Drouet's, where they did not get half enough to eat. On one oc casion he brought them two allowances of pudding and bread and butter, which they instantly ate, although they had only just returned from the dinner-table. Both children had good health when they went to Tooting. Iu consequence of Mary's death he discharged himself, to take away his other child. Ile saw de ceased the day before her death, but she was too weak to speak. CORONER—Another child, named Thomas Ridgway or Hartley, has been buried from this workhouse; has any parish claimed him? Mr. Sutton, vestry-clerk— No, sir. Sir. Whittle, registrar for the Tooting district, de posed, that since the 19th of December 150 children had died in Mr. Drouct's from cholera, while not one died of that complaint in the village, or within the district; and from the 12th of April to the 29th of December 34 chil dren died in Mr. Drouet's of diarrhoea, consumption, and other diseases. Dr. Grainger, one •of the superintendent medical officers of the Board of Health, repeated the evidence which ho gave on a previous occasion, and which em braced all the main facts of the truly deplorable. nquiry. Some further evidence having been received, the in quiry was again adjourned.

Officiati ng Judge-Advocate, William Eastlake, Esq. John Beer, jun., E r. sq ß. ,o isien fDe d zip hr o e rt, mte3 appearedt.,s s for the Agincourt,defence. Cap. was ta Ns unable to attend, as Le was suffering from an attack- of bronchitis, and a medical catificate to that effect was put in and read. The Court having been sworn, Commander Sprigg was placed on his trial on the following charges : Fur that the said Commander George Sprigg, when commander of her Majesty's sloop Ferret, and in actual service and full pay or her Majesty's fleet, did, upon the main sea, on the 10th day of June, 1848, evil entreat eleven men, whose Lames ate to us unknown, who were part of the crew of the Brazilian schooner Castro the Third, which he Lad taken as a prize, by ordering such elevee men into a boat belonging to the said schooner, and by ordering them, when in such said ,boat, to steer south east, to the western coast of Africa, which was the nearest land, being at the time many miles off ; and such eleven men not being then properly provided with ours and water. For that, by such conduct, the said Commander George Sprigg did behave in a cruel and oppressive manner, unbecoming the character of an officer in her Alajesty's navy. A statement of the charges have been read by the Judge-Advocate, the following witnesses were called and examined : John Holmes, late boatswain of the Ferret, stated that the Ferret was on the west coast of Africa in June, 1848, at which time Commander Sprigg was her captain. In that month a slaver was captured by her, called Castro the Third. About five o'clock a boat belonging tattle prize, with ten or eleven slavers in her, was brought alongside. Captain Sprigg ordered me not to allow any one to come up, but to put into the slaver's boat a breaker of water, a compass, lantern and candle, and shove her off to wards the shore. There were no provisions, that I saw, in the boat, only a number of bags, but what they con tained Ido not know. Commander Sprigg held no com munication with the men in the boat, excepting to direct them to steer S.E. fifty miles. I think he said for Ben guile. The men were pulling two oars when the boat left the ship, and I think one steering. I did not see anything cruel, oppressive, or uncfficer-like in Com mander Sprigg's conduct towards the slavers. By the Court—There was notbing taken from the men in the boat, neither were they-ill used or beaten when they refused to proceed in the boat. The men were not, I think, sober. The boat was about eighteen feet long, and apparently a new one. The boat was not too heavily laden, and it was fine weather, with smooth water. I believe there were provisions in the bags which I saw in the boat, as it is frequently my duty, in taking slavers, to overhaul men's bags ; and I hare scarcely met with on instance but that they have con tained some provisions. By the defendant—l don't recollect that you ordered the men to take out of the prize whatever they wanted, but it might have been done without my bearing it. I saw tin canisters, in which they are in the habit of car rying bread and provisions, in the boat. There was ano ther prize crew away from the Ferret besides the prize crew on board the Castro. The pinnace, with the crew, had been away from the Ferret fOr many days; there had been great sickness on board the Ferret pre viously, and she was very short-handed in consequence. Jeremiah Torney examined—l was acting gunner of the Ferret, and was on detached service when the slaver was captured in June last year. I fell in with a boat containing eleven men, the prisoners, who told me they had no bread. I started some water into a tin, about a gallon, and they drank it. They asked me the point that they were near to, and I pointed out Coquimbo Point to them, which they reached that night about twelve o'clock. Sergeant John Spooner examined—l am a sergeant in the Royal Marines, l a t e o f h er M a j esty ' s sloop Ferrer, and was on board the Ferret in June last, when she captured the Castro the Third. I was standing on the netting just by the gangway when the slaver's boat came alongside. The boat bad a bag of crisped bread, the same as they always carry en board, us well as other bags and canisters, the contents a which I do not know. The quantity of bread, I suppose, was ale ut 10 to 12 or 141bs. The cpptared very jovial when they were sent away. They did not ask for previsio ns. , and were very carel ess o f t h e water, whether they took it or not, and I had to get in and place it, to prevent its being upset. I have no doubt that they had a sufficient quantity of provisions and water to enable them to reach the shore, Mr. Charles Cutford Mitchell examined—l ordered twelve of the men into the boat, and received the captain's order to let them have what provisions they required from the cabin stock, and water. They refused to take any water, but said they would go to the Ferret and get it. They refused to take anything, and I put their bags and clothes and different things into the boat. I do not know what their bags contained, but in many vessels that I have taken before these bags contained an immense quantity of provisions. The Court was ~here cleared for consultation, and, after an interval of an hour, on the re- opening of it, the following questions were put to the witnesses:— Did you consider that Commander Sprigg evil en treated and behaved in a cruel manner towards the pri soners by sending them away ?—I should say no,aftar Did you consider it so at the time?—l did, but having heard that the pinnace arrived safe on shore, and hear ing from them the quantity of water remaining, I do not think it so. I believe that the men had provisions in their bags. The provisions that had been taken away from the cabin could not have been placed anywhere else. This concluded the case for the prosecution, and The President informed the defendant that if he wished to have time to prepare his defence the Court would allow it. Commander Sprigg replied that he should IPte to have until eleven o'clock to-morrow, which was granted. The Court rose at half-past four. The court-martial for the trial of Commander Sprigg, of her Majesty's brig Ferret, re-assembled on board her' Majesty's ship Caledonia, in Hamoaze, shortly after ele ven o'clock on the morning of the 25th. Mr. J. Beer, solicitor for Commander Sprigg, read to the Court a voluminous and well-written address, point ing out the hazardous nature of the duty on the coast; the reckless character of the slavers; the danger of takir g the crew of the Castro 111. on board the Ferret, while her crew was so reduced that the captain of the foretop had charge of one watch, and the ship's cook of an other; referred to the fact of his own activity against tie slavers having created hatred on their parts towards him; and to the possibility of that hatred having origi nated the present charge. The first witness called for the defence was James Clements, late captain of the foretop of her Majesty's the e whaler,left the u under i i t n nes t a h e e m ont o h r e n nlog in t hof c ab h tri a gn rg ill i cer o r f oe' l lo r c . Wk ßaffles, clerk's assistant, and reached the Castro 111., after pulling fifteen or sixteen miles, about two o'clock. Commander Sprig; hailed Mr. Mitchell to hoist out the prize's boat, and scud the prisoners in her, taking what they thought proper. When this was com municated sonic got in, and witness left the prize in the gig with the prize's longboat. W hen near the Ferret Commau der Sprigg ordered witness to go in the gig, with the boat, back to the prize, and direct Mr. Mitchell to put the re mainder of the prize's crew, with what they chose to take, into the boat. They took what they pleased. They were neither searched, beaten, nor ill-treated. They took several tin canisters, and many other things; had bread in a bag, and meat in the bottom of the boat. John Giddy, carpenter of the Ferret, had charge of the last dog-watch, and was relieved by Edward Eridge, the ship's cock. The slavers' boat was 17 to 18 fees , long, 4 feet 7 or 8 inches broad, Portuguese built (if , English she would be 5 feet broad); gunwale 11 or 12 inches or inure out of the water ; the oars suitable, and about 15 feet long. e S u e t re e : a a n n tt MansellJolin t the R slaver . had — Ne onlyee of water. ihrreepeorgtaeldlontos a, a dslait:: quartermasterdisi e l wA urines — Was anda a t er: :eansn—di half t r o o l nid in them -- land.

The an indulgence to bo allowed to go in their boat, theprisoners. been repeatedly made by Frederick William Horton—Commanded the King fisher 22 months on the coast of Africa. Should not consider it dangerous for a boat to be sent under the circumstances described. The land may be seen 30 miles off. Slavers consider it a boon to be sent in their own boat. Should think such a boat very crowded, but not dangerous. Captain Butterfield served upwards of ten years on the west coast of Africa. Off Coquimbo the sea is smooth. Frequently detached boats from the ship forty miles off the coast. Always searched captured slavers, who usually cart) , bread, sugar, coffee, &c., in their lug gage. On one occasion a crew of seventeen slavers left his ship in a boat twenty-four feet long with mast and sail, when 100 miles from land, and arrived safe in Bonny River. Commander Sprigg was two years under corn. mand of witness. his conduct was always correct and energetic, and his ship in good order. Captain Charles Edmunds, R.N.—llad Commander Sprigg serving under his command last May, when he sent, with a sailing order, a private note stating that a run of slave -vessels might be expected on that part of the coast. The Ferret was clean and smart in weighing and making sail. Witness never sent away pri soners when more than twelve miles off shore. On one oc casion five or six asked and were allowed to land is their own boat.
