DESPATCHES FROM THE PACIFIC. (From last Night's Gazette.) ADMIRALTY, SEPT. 10. Despatches, of which the following are copies, have been received from Rear-Admiral Bruce, Commander in-Chief of her Majesty's ships and vessels on the Pacific station : President, at Petropaulovski, June 15. Sir—l have to report, for the information of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, that arriving off this port, on the 30th May, I found the place completely evacuated ; not a ship, gun, or person to be seen ; nothing but empty embrasures and deserted houses. 2. I entered the inner harbour on the following day in the Barracouta, accompanied by Captain Penanros, of the French frigate Alceste, when we found three Americans (the only residents left), from whom we learned that the Russian ships named in the margin • were cut through the ice, and took their departure, on the 17th (sth) April with all the guns and munitions of war, and all the soldiers and government employee, 800 in number; but of their destination we could obtain no clue. 3. I reached the rendezvous, lat. 50 deg. N., long. 160 deg. E., its my flag-ship, on the 14th May, and the Dido and Pique arrived the same day ; the Encounter and Barracouta had been there since the 14th April. Great credit is due to Captain O'Callaghan and Com. mender Stirling for the zealous exertion by which they effected this object ; and their lordships will remark the promptitude with which they were despatched by the Rear-Admiral Sir James Stirling. 4. The French frigate Alcestis and the Brisk were in the vicinity of the rendezvous at the same time ; but the prevalence of thick fogs and adverse weather prevented me seeing the Bay of Acootska before the 20th ult., when six of the ships being together, I trusted to the prompt appearance of the seventh, and accordingly pro ceeded to the port, in tow of the Barracouta, followed by the Alceste, in tow of the Brisk. The Dido, Pique, and Encounter arrived the same evening. 5. Commander Stirling, of her Majesty's steam sloop Barracouta, while separated from the squadron, having, during a break in the fog, looked into the anchorage to see if it was there, took with much judgment that op portunity of reconnoitring the harbour : and I was in formed by him of the ships being no longer in it. 6. The Amphitrite, f rom Honolulu, having met me on the 11th inst., while I was in the act of following the Russian ships into the Sea of Ochotsk, and given me such information as to convince me that a combined English and French force was already there, instead of proceeding I despatched her Majesty's ships Pique and Barracouta, on the 13th, and the Amphitrite on the 14th, to reinforce the squadron of Sir James Stirling at the mouth of the Amour. The En counter sailed on the 12th for Sir James Stirling's rendezvous at Haksdadi, in the Strait of Maksmai, to inform his Excellency of the movements of other ships, in case he should not have left there. The Amphitrite will rejoin my flag off Sitka, so soon as Captain Frede rick finds her services are not required in the Sea of Ochotsk. 8. Resuming the subject of Petropaulovski, I would observe that the enemy must have worked in an indefa tigable manner after the departure of the allied squadron last year, as we found 9 batteries for 54 guns had been constructed with much skill and labour, by means of fascines strongly bound together, 25 feet thick, staked and filled in with earth, and some of them ditched round, with covered ways leading from one to the other, and trees planted in the rear. Every possible preparation had been made to receive us prior to the orders arriving from St. Petersburg to evacuate the place. 9. I caused the batteries to be destroyed, hut, having met with no opposition on approaching Petropaulovski, I considered it a point of , honour to spare the town. 10. I found hidden in the Rakovia Harbour a fine Russian whaler of 400 tons, called the Aian, built at Abo in 1853. She would have sailed from here three weeks since for Aian, with the family of the Governor of the place, and, among other articles of cargo, an en gine for a small steamer said to be there, but the oppor tune arrival of some of the squadron off the port pre vented her leaving. As I found her deserted, and her sails, boat, and anchors are not to be found, she will be destroyed. 11. I am disappointed in not having succeeded in opening a communication with the inhabitants, who have fled from the town ; for I hoped to release the two English prisoners they have among them. I learn, however, from the Americans that they are very treated. 12. In conclusion, I desire to add that although it has necessarily been a great disappointment to the squadron under my command to find upon arrival at •this place, more than 2,000 miles outside their station, that the enemy had escaped, and the batteries were de serted, yet their lordships will not fail to observe that not the less credit is due for the great zeal and anxi,:ty that has been shown by each of the ships in pushing on ward, in the hope of being in time to take part in the anticipated operation at this port. 13. The best understanding subsisted between Cap tain Penanros, of the Alceste, and me, and I cannot say too much in favour of the zeal and activity he displayed to meet every wish of mine, and to keep the appointed rendezvous ; the same continues with respect to Rear- Admiral Fourichon.—l am, &c., - H. W. BRUCE, Rear-Admiral and Commander•in-Chief. The Secretary of the Admiralty. President, off Sitka, July 17. Sir,—l request you will inform the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty, that before leaving Petropau• lovski, I succeeded in opening a communication with Capt. Martinhoff, the temporary Governor of that place, who bad retired into the interior, having for its object the release of two prisoners taken last year, as reported in my general letter of the 15th ult., No. 41. Having forwarded a safe conduct to Capt..Martinhoff, through the kind offices of an American resident in Petropaulovski, that officer nut 150 versts inland for them, and on their arrival, on the 25th ult., delivpred theca up to Captain Houston, of her Majes4's ship Trincomalee, and three Russians that had been detained on hoard the French brig Obligado since last year were given in exchange. The two men proved to be William Garland, ordinary seaman, of her Majesty's ship Pique. and Pierre Lan gois, of the French frigate Forte. The latter will be handed over to the Forte on my arrival at San Fran cisco, and the former will, at his own request, be ap pointed to the Brisk, his proper ship having sailed for the China station. Both appear to have been treated with much• kindness during the time they have been in the hands of the enemy.—l have, &c., The Secretary of the Admiralty. H. W. BRUCE.

MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH. Mr. Deputy DAKIN —I wish to ask a question of the Chairman, in consequence of a paragraph which has ap peared in the morning papers with regard to the alleged appointment of Mr. Simon , the officer of health to the City, to the higher appointment of medical officer to the General Board of Health of the metropolis. Of course it is a great compliment to this c omm i ssion if their officer has been elected to so important a positi on, b ut as this is now a matter of public notoriety, I would ask if the para graph to which I have alluded to is at all within the Chairman's knowledge ; and if so, whether M r. Si mon has made any communication to this commission ? The CHAIRMAN—I have beard nothing since last week, and when I asked the doctor if the report was t rue , h o said that there was not, as far as he knew, any ground for it: but that if be heard anything that ought to be reported upon, he would let the court know of it. I have heard nothing since. (Hear, hear.) THE CITY OF LONDON CEMETERY. About twenty tendera for the contract for the Eupnly of trees and shrubs for the City of London Cemetery were received and referred to Mr. Haywood, the en gineer to the comniiision, and Mr. Davidson, the land scape gardener, to examine and report upon. , NEGLECT OF DUST CONTRACTORS. Several instances of neglect on the part of dust con tractors were brought before the court, and penalties were inflicted. In one case, in which it was distinctly proved that the contractor's men refused to remove the dust from a greengrocer's house unless they received six pence for their trouble, a fine of twenty shillings was in flicted ' • the chairman stating that it was the determina tion of the court to adopt the most rigorous measures, and to inflict the highest penalties, where similar cases of neglect and misconduct were brought under their notice. SHOP-WINDOW REFLECTORS On the application of some of the inspectors of nui- sances, several shopkeepers who had affixed reflectors to their windows, to the great inconvenience of the public, were ordered to be summoned. The court then adjourned.

L—1 have been suffering from indigestion for the last five years. I had a breaking out in my neck, and sore throat at the commencement, which I have suffered from at times ever since, and a continual pain at the pit of my stomach, and oftentimes sickness and head ache, with a bad appetite, and languor of body and mind. I could not take sufficient food to keep up my strength, and I often felt great weakness in my legs. I have been continually taking medicine, but found it only weakens th e stomach more. I have t a k en the Revalenta Food for the last ten clays, and beg to te n d er to you my most 'grateful thank s f or your kind advice. The benefit I have derived in so short a time is very far beyond my expectation. The pain at the pit ofthes t t i o i; Mach quite left me after t a ki ng your food three days, and effects on the bowels have also been very favourable. I feel much less pain in my head, back, and legs. I sleep much better, and feel refreshed from it. My appetite is much bet ter. I heartily thank y ou for 'your kind attention, and sball take every opportunity of recommending this excellent food t o any one that maybe suffering from the same complaint, &a. —3f.

PatirlChurayard; 6 Edward-street, Portman-square, Upon being questioned by Mr. Alderman Salomons, the complainant said the boy had acted in the most open manner, and no suspicion at all was entertained of his integrity. In all probability if the lad had not himself suggested the caution, the money would have been given without hesitation or inquiry. The boy's father said—My son, upon being questioned by me, said a person outside the door had spoken to him as he was going home from his daily occupation, and told bun if he would give in the note and bring out an answer, some trifle should be given to him, but that not a word had been said to him about receiving cash for the contents. Huggins (the detective) said it was a common prac tice with thieves and utterers of forgeries to endeavour to induce boys of respectable appearance, whom they accidentally met in the streets, to call at the houses of shopkeepers with notes and cheques of the kind, and in some instances the trick had succeeded. He at the same time produced a sample of the same sort of villany which bad a few days ago succeeded. Alderman Salomons said the influence of the press could be beneficially exercised in cases of this kind, and discharged the boy, who appeared to be much shocked and terrified. GUILDHALL.—A member of parliament and a gen tleman of the highest standing in the commercial world, whose names for obvious reasons we omit, were SUIT,- moned to appear before Alderman Humphery to answer a charge of conspiracy to prevent the complainant, Mr. Christopher Rice Mansell Talbot, Lord Lieutenant and M.P. for Glamorganshire, from realising a certain se curity for the advance of 10,0001., which he had made to one of the defendants. The precise nature of the complaint upon which the summons was issued did not publicly transpire, but we believe the matter to be substantially as follows :—One of the defendants requiring money, applied to the com plainant, who thereupon advanced a sum of 10,0001., and received as security the bond of the other defendant, who is a member of parliament, it being distinctly under , stood by all parties that a vessel then building should form an'additional security for the loan. The latter de fendant subsequently advanced 10,0001. also to the bor rower in the first instance, and afterwards registered his claim upon the vessel in the ordinary way, the borrower at the same time making a declaration and signing the covenant to the effect that the vessel was free from all encumbrances, both defendants knowing at the time that it was already mortgaged, by verbal agreement, to the complainant for the SUM he bad advanced. The com plainant's claim upon the vessel was, therefore, ousted by the precaution taken by the defendant, who alleges he advanced a further sum of 10,000/, Mr. Newbon attended before Alderman Humphery and Alderman Finnis, to explain that he had no com plaint to make with respect to this summons, as the par ties were not in attendance, having adjusted the matter to their mutual satisfaction. He therefore wished to withdraw the summons. Alderman Humphery asked how he could do that and compromise Mr. Talbot ? Mr. Newbs n E aid Mr. Talbot bad no desire to proceed any further with the ease. Alderman Humphery said it was a very serious charge against two gentlemen, and he could not see how the magistrates could consent to such a compromise, but they would do everythin g that was right. The worthy alder man said he had gr an t e d this summons, and he was there to attend to it. Alderman Finnis said it seemed to him that the sum mons was taken out without any intention of proceeding with it. The City Solicitor inquired if there was any informa tion Mr. Martin said there was not. taken upon oath ? Alderman Humphery said he was very careful before he granted the summons, and was most anxious to ascer tain whether what Mr. Newbon had stated was really a fact. Mr. Newbon said there had been no compromise at and hehad noto discuss wish • all ; but the present p ro ceeding had been commenced under a misapprehension, the sub;ect at that time. Alderman Humpbery said neither had be, but the magistrates only sat there for the administration of jus tice, and he did not wish to be made the means of ter rifying Mr. Newbon said he did not desire to proceed under a misapprehension. on ap plying Humphery told said plying for the summons,not taking with it, and he it out with the intention of not proceeding I es wasto ne , (the Alderman) said that he would not grant a summons for the express purpose of dragging money out of another man's pocket. The City Solicitor asked the alderman if he wished the summons to be proceeded with ? Alderman Humphery said he did not ; but he ob jected upon principle to the making use of him as an in strument of tyranny and oppression. Alderman Finnis said it was a very improper thing to make such charges against gentlemen, and then not go on with them when the time for hearing them arrived. Alderman Humphery said it was just as be said it would be. However, the parties were not here, and the complaint was therefore dismissed ; but he wished to be clearly understood that it was dismissed in consequence of the summons being withdrawn and the parties not ap pearing to press the char ge. James Hunt, a private in the Royal London Militia, was charged with.vioJently.a3saulting Wm. Drawbridge. There was also a second charge against the prisoner, of assaulting the policeman in the execution of his duty. It appeared that the prisoner was drunk, when he got The whole of the iron planing mills are burned do gn, the saw mills are also destroyed, the joiners' shops are levelled with the ground, the masons' shops are also consumed, and a valuable stock of marble completely splintered; several stacks of Spanish and Honduras mahogany, as well as Dantzic wainscoting, are reduced to ashes. The greater portion of the valuable trees in the park adiiining the Archbishop of Cant(rhury's Palace were set on fire, and at 11 o'clock there seemed little chance of F avitig any on the eastern side. Fortu nately the palace (lid rot receive the least injury, but the alarm amongst the domestics, especially when the eastern wall of the park fell, was exceedingly great. A rigid and scare:blig inquiry has taken place with regard to the origin of the calamity, but nothing satis factory has been ascertained. The men usually left off work at half-past 5, but owing to a pressure of business they did not leave off on Monday till half-past 8 o'clock ; and at that time the gas was turned off and everything appeared safe and free from fire. Mr. Baker, the principal Fufferer, is a director of the Kent Insurance Company, and the following list is re turned to the fire-offices of the loss :—Kent Fire-office, 5,000/. ; West of England, 3,0001. for stock ; and about 2,0001. in the Atlas Office, for machinery and buildings. The e;ght houses in Paris-street, which are also con siderably damaged, were insured in the County Fire office, and the majority of the'nmates were insured. A Mr. Wt rmwell, surgical instrument maker, in his anxiety to save the tools of the workmen, unfortunately broke bis leg, and as , istance having been obtained, he was con veyed to Westminster Hospital, POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-TIOUSE. —Samuel Franklin, was brought before Alderman Salomons, charged with having stolen bank-notes to the amount of 451. Mr. E. Ward, of Claremont-square, Pentonville, corn factor, said—l carry on business at the Corn Exchange, Mark-lane. According to my custom I went yesterday to the subscription room over the old Corn Exchange, after market hours, for the purpose of making up my cash and cheque account for my banker. The prisoner was sitting by my side. Some persons, one of whom I knew to be a gentleman of respectability, were ii the room when I entered, but they went away soon after wards. The prisoner was the only man sitting there. I proceeded to make up my cash for my banker, and amo ngst other moneys were a 101. and seven 51. Bank of England notes. My pocket-book (exhibiting a very large one) was on the t a bl e , an d I d epos it e d some cheques, with the roll of notes in it. The prisoner was then reading a newspaper. My attention was called off from what I was engaged in by a person who, I have no doubt, was an accomplice of the prisoner, and who asked me at what time the room closed. I replied that there was no regularly appointed time, and I again turned my attention to my immediate business, and when I looked back at my pocket-book, the prisoner said, "You have dropped one of your cheques." My nephew, who is my clerk, was writing at some little distance, saw the eheque lying on the ground, and picked it up and gave it to me. I then looked into my pocket-book and saw in it several cheques, but the bank-notes were gone. There was no in dividual at the table exceptthe prisoner, and I said to him instantly, " You have got my notes." He said, " You have got them in your pocket." I then, although I knew it was useless, put my hands into my pockets, and of course I did not find the notes. He then rushed by me to make his escape, and I called to my nephew to stop him. There was a great crowd on the stairs. The pri soner was pursued into the street, and was ultimately taken. I looked under the table, and all about the place. I have never seen any of the notes since, and I do not know the numbers. Alderman Salomons—Are you sure that you wrapped up the cheques and the bank notes together ? Witness—l am. Policeman 574 said—l was on duty at a quarter pa-t four o'clock yesterday afternoon. A crowd of persons were there, as is customary on market days. The pti sorer came out as fast as he could, and was rushing past me. I suspected that something was wrong, and pre sently Mr. Ward's nephew came up, and said, pointing to the prisoner, "I want this man ; he has robbed a friend of mine." I the apprehended the prisoner, and took him up to the subscription-room, where Mr. Ward gave him into custody upon the charge of robbing him of a 101. and seven 51. notes. I told Mr. Ward to make sure that the prisoner had committed the robbery before he preferred the charge. Upon searching the prisoner I found 1/. 2s. 20. upon him, but there was nothing to which Mr. Ward laid claim. Alderman Salornons—What address did the prisoner give you ? Witness—lle gave a false address, directed to Kentish town. I found a watch chain, to which a small sub stance, intended to pass for a watch, was attached, in his pocket. Mr. W. Smith, nephew to the prosecutor, said—l was sittinc , opposite to my uncle, looking over a newspaper, and I banded a cheque from the ground to him. My uncle then said, "This person (meaning the prisoner) has robbed me of my notes," and the prisoner rushed out of the house, and I followed and gave him in charge. I had heard the stranger in the subscription-room ask my uncle at what time the room closed. The prisoner sat close to my uncle at the table. Alderman Salomons--Could the prisoner have passed anything without difficulty to an accomplice ? Witness—Certainly be could. The pocket-book was close to the prisoner, and could have been easily taken up by him ; as easily as it could bare been taken up by my uncle himself. The prisoner, upon being asked whether ho had any questions to put to any of the witnesses, said " No." One of the turnkeys said the prisoner had been in pri son before upon a charge of committing a robbery in an omnibus,and he had been five or six years ago at the Mansion house upon a charge of assault. The prisoner —Yes ; I was here foian assault six years ago, but the other charge is false. I was never here for robbery. Alderman Salomons—ln order that strict inquiry may be made, I shall remand the prisoner for a week. A respectable lad va4 charged under the following cir cumstances : into an altercation with Drawbridge, and struck him a violent blow on the head. The constable came up imme diately after, and the prisoner on being remonstrated with turned upon the officer and struck him several very severe blows in the chest, and afterwards kicked him. Ho was, however, eventually secured, and, with the as sistanoe of another policeman, safely lodged in the station. The prisoner, who is a strong stalwart fellow, and has been before the magistrates on several occasions for simi lar offences, admitted he was too drunk to know what he was doing, and was therefore fined 10a., or, in de fault, 14 days' imprisonment. BOW-STREET.—Penelope Fletcher, a young ser vant girl, was brought before Mr. Jardine charged with stealing a quantity of bed-linen, wearing apparel, &c., the property of Mr. John Keck, landlord of the White Lion, Bloomsbury. From the statement of the landlady, it appeared that she bad taken the prisoner into her service without the usual precaution of inquiring into her character, the girl having represented that she lived at a neighbour's. For the first week she conducted herself in a most satisfactory manner ; but by the end of the second week suspicion was directed against her, in con sequence of the gradual disappearance of sundry coun terpanes, blankets, petticoats, towels, &c., from the bed rooms upstairs. She was not detected, however, in removing any of the things, and the first intimation of her guilt was given by a woman in whose house the pri soner had taken a room, evidently for the purpose of stowing away her master's property. This woman received a bundle from the prisoner one evening, which she had the curiosity to open. She then saw in a minute that the contents belonged to Mr. Keck, whose name was marked upon the sheets and other articles in the bundle. During the night the woman communicated what she had discovered to her husband, who jumped out of bed, dressed himself, proceeded direct to the pro secutors, and gave him the information, upon which the girl was given into custody. It was then found that she had almost stripped the bed-rooms, her apartment being half full of the stolen property. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to three months' imprisonment. Mr. J. E. Joe, of No. 14, Aldgate, grocer, said—Last evening, at half-past six o'clock, the prisoner brought to me an envelope, enclosing a note and a cheque, purport ing to come from Mr. Fisher, of 98, Leandenhall•streat. The note was addressed to me, and 'requested that I would cash the cheque, which was for 9/. 55., for him, as he wanted the money for immediate use. (Here the cheque, which purported to be drawn by Mr. Jackson upon the London Joint-Stock Bank, was produced.) I asked him if he belonged to Mr. Fisher's house. He replied that he did not, and thatthenote had been handed to him by a person on the other side, whom he did not know, and that I had better be particular about it. I opened the note, and gave the amount to my porter, with directions to go to Mr. Fisher's with the boy, and it was soon ascertained that nothing at all was known about the matter by Mr. Fisher, or any person of the establishment. THE GREAT FIRE IN LAIIIBETII. - ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS. The premises which covered several acres of ground, comprised saw mills, iron planing mills, joiners' shops, and carpenters' shops ; and at the extremity on the south side there were immense piles of mahogany and other timber worth several thousand pound. Flanking the property on the same side were upwards of a dozen lofty . houses in Paris-street, and, as will be seen below, eight of these were set on fire, and narrowly escaped being destroyed. It appears that Police-constable New man, No. 79, of the L division, in passing along his beat, had his attention directed to the premises by seeing a large body of flames mounting over the works, appa rently from the workshops adjoining the drying-house. He immediately gave the alarm in the usual way, and sent off for the engines. With as little delay as possible several engines belonging to Messrs. Hodges, the distillers, the West ief England Insurance office, and the London Brigade, reached the spot, and a plentiful supply of the Lambeth Company's water hay eg been procured, the engines were sot to work, but the flames by that period had extended to sundry piles of mahogany and other timber, as well as to a great many workshops, planing.heames, and other buildings. By three o'clock the scene that presented itself was grand in the extreme. The . flames, which bad even corn municated themselves to the trees in the grounds of the Archbishop of Canterbury, not only brought out in fine relief the Houses of Parliament on the other side of the river, but imparted a lurid glare to the clouds over a great portion of the metropolis. The firemen finding that it was entirely impracticable to subdue so great a body of flame by the aid of the land engines, sent off for the powerful steam-floating engine at Southwark-bridge. This ponderous machine was immediately brought up the river by Mr. George Gerrard, and was set to work with upwards of 500 feet of hose ; but in spite of the ramoet exertions of the firemen, who were admirably directed by Messr4. Braidwood, Henderson, Hambleton, and Connorton, the work of devastation continued, and it was late yesterday before the conflagration was extinguished. The alarm and consternation which the fire occasioned while at its height have happily been very , seldom exceeded. The occupants of many of the sur rounding houses rushed hastily to the street in the liehtest possible clothing, carrying with them any articles of furniture they could lay their hands upon. To protect the property thus hastily removed required the services of a large body of police, who were under the comma n d o f Mr. Superintendent Evans and Inspectors Harmsworth, C )wlen, White, and Rogers. The Royal Society's escapes from the Female Orphan Asylum and Kennington, promptly attended, but fortunately their services were not required. To give anything like an approximation to the exact amount of damage would be at present impossible, but it rnu,t at a moderate calculation reach to nearly, if not exceed 50,0001. We regret to add that the workmen employed on the premises have lost upwards of 2,0001. worth of tools ; and it is understood that none of the men were insured. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.. DONCASTER MEETING. SUBSCRIPTION Room, MONDAY NIGIIT. Subscribers dropped in in quick succession, and, after the arrival of the express train from London, the room was densely crowded. Business, however, was not con dueted with marked activity. Several books were opened on the Cesarewitch, and, as will be seen from the ap pended list of quotations, many horses were brought into prominent notice.

The harvest has made rapid progress ; in all direc tions the fields are being cleared as quickly as the com parative shortness of hands will permit. A great many farmers have finished harvest, and the close of this week will no doubt witness, with but few exceptions, the ter mination of the harvest throughout this district. As regards the yield but little reliable information has at present been made known. There are various and conflicting reports as to the wheat. There can be no doubt that the crop is in many, and a great many, naances defective, but we are disposed to think th at the actual amount of mischief is a good deal over-rated. Taking into consideration the large breadth of land which was planted in wheat, the quantity on the ground, and the remarkably fine weather which has prevailed through out the harvest, we conceive that these facts will, in the great majority of districts, entirely compensate for such effect as blight or mildew may have produced, and that England will in a very few days have garnered in safety a fair average wheat crop• In these southern counties our own observation, coupled with careful inquiries in reliable quarters,lea,ds to the conclusion that this is essen tially the case. The barleys are not a good colour, but they promise to be abundant in yield ; while, as to oats, beans, and peas the reports are most satisfactory. The po tato crop is ample in quasi tity and excellent in quality, and the dry weather during the last month appears to have mainly, if not entirely, checked the disease which had just previously begun to show itself, and which had, we believe, in very few instances extended beyond the haulm,—Sussex Advertiser. COLONIAL NEWSPAPERS.--By the nes postal regula tions regarding newspapers, a penny each is charged wa colonial newspapers sent from one colony to another, and also on newspapers sent from one port in a colony to another port in the same colony. These regulations have caused dissatisfaction in the West Indies, because hitherto no such postal charges as those mentioned above have been made.

It appears that about midnight on Friday the wife of Abrahams was awoke by a noise of something scratching at the door, upon opening which she found the missing badger impatjent to be admitted.

She had gone on the previous night to fetch him home from a public-house, and on the way he knocked her down and kicked her brutally, inflicting severe wounds on various parts of the body, and especi ally about the neck. She afterwards jumped through a bed-room window, when at home, to escape from him, and was carried by a neighbour to the Infirmary. There is some reason to fear she will not recover. The prisoner was remanded for a week.
