WILLIAM SAMUEL DOWNES, Actuary. T o the INDEPENDENT FREEMEN and ill ELECTORS of the BOROUGH of BOSTON. GENTLEMEN, —Accept my grateful thanks for the proud position in which you have placed me. It is a great hononr to be elected as the representative of any English constitu ency, but to me—elected, as I am, by the free suffrages of • Illy fellow-townsmen—returned at the bead of the poll by a large and triumphant if not unprecedented majority of the • Liberal party—the honour is accompanied by circumstances of more than usual gratification. Believe me that in retui n for your generous confidenee I shall devote nay best energi• s • to your service. And not to yours alone. The great into ' rests of the empire, in asrar as tfit votes of one member of Parliament eau influence or direct them, shall receive my se • dulous attention, and my votes shall, in every instance, be lirivenin support of those great and free principles to which, 1 0 my previously published addresses, and speeches delivered before you, I have pledged myself to adhere. To those gentlemen who nobly came forward to record their votes in my favour, to those 521 freemen and electors Who have set an example to all other Liberal constituencies throughout the country, my thanks are especially due. To the inhabitants generally I take this opportunity of express ing my deep sense of the kiudnees which I have received, and which will ever be treasured in my grateful remembrance. Now that the election is happily concluded, I hope that the same cordiality which prevailed between all parties in the town will not be interrupted, and that my late opponents will be assured that I do not simply represent those political friends whose votes and exertions returned me to Parliament, but all the inhabitants of Boston, and that in attending to their local interests and wants my time and best exertions will ever be at their service. I return to London this day to attend to my Parliamentary duties, but as soon as the house rises for the Easter holidays I shall take the opportunity of calling on my supporters er- Banally, and again expressing with my own lips my gratitude for the support and confidence which I have received. Believe me, Gentlemen, Your faithful and obliged bumble servant, HERBERT INGRAM. Committee Room, London Tavern, Boston, Saturday, March 8, 1856. THE CLOSE OF THE POLL. Ingram Adams 521 296 Majority. 225 THE STANDARD LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY. THE THIRTIETH ANNUAL GENERAL MEET -1 ING of THE STANDARD ASSURANCE COMPANY was held within the Company's Office, Edinburgh, on Friday, the 15th of February— Csoaoa Mom, Esq., Advocate, Sheriff of Ross and Cromarty, in the Chair. THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS WERE SUBMITTED TO THE MEETING:- IMPORT by the DIRECTORS as to the Progress of the Busi. mess. ANNUAL BALANCE•SHEET as at 15th Nov., 1555, cer tified by three Directors and the Auditor, in accordance with the Company's Act of Parliament. REPORT by the AUDITOR after examination of the Books and Accounts. THE FOLLOWING ARE EXTRACTS FROM THE REPORT:- The Board of Directors have more than ordinary satisfac tion in meeting their constitatents en this occasion, as they have it in their power not only to report that the past year has been the most successful since the Company commenced business in 1825, but that the five years completed at 15th November lAA exhibit a greater measure of success than any Previous quinquennial period. The Results of the year, from 15th November 1E54 to 15th Nov, nber,lBss, aro as follows : BUMS PROPOSED FOR ASSURANCE £716,383 7 11 NEW ASSURANCES EFFECTED £609,323 7 11 CORRESrONDING ANNUAL PREMIUMS ou New Assurances . CLAIMS RV DEATH during the Year, exclusive of Bonus Additions... .., £75,640 8 0 ANNUAL INCOME as at the date of Balance : From Premiums £165,559 16 5 From Interest ou In-rested Capital Income -!-:237,.150 1 9 TOTAL AMOUNT ASSURED, in force at 15th No, ember, 1'355 XUMBER. OF POLICIES in farce 9,244 When the Directors state that the new busines , of the year 1 855, is under,tood to exceed that of any other Life Office in great Britaia during the same period, it is scarcely necessary for them to make any further o' servation in evidence of the Company's continued success, and its position in public esti 'nation ; but as the progress of one year, which might be the result of a sudden effort, is less satisfactory than the result 0 f a continuous course of exertion showing gradual and steady improvement, the Directors beg attention to the de• ►elopment of the business during the ten years from 1845 to 1 855, that is, front the 20th to the 30th year of the Com pany's vaistunco.

Th e y heard the evidence and saw the pertinacity witlt wh ch the prosecutor proceeded in the case. The na! prisoner, as owner of the house, ought t ) know wcat was %n his len—. There were there found te obt a el; of wheat, and t vo had been sent to the mill. m• king in the whole a sack. After these cit.( umstanct were proved the jury found him guilty, and also Eliza Pyles. The Court sentenced Joseph ' Bylgs to nine months' imprisonment, and the wife to six months, considering that there was that di Terence as to the guilt of the two pas ties. No sooner was this done than to their great surprise, Mr. J. H. Saunder. came to the presiding magistrates and said he be:iev d the man was perfectly innocent, and that he did no. know the wheat was in his house or how it came there. That was a most startling► assertion. Eowever, if the Session lasted a month it was suppoked to be' one 'Sitting, and during the whole of that sitting they could altir or I modify eny particular sentence they pleased. Under this startling discovery, the court was desirous of re-consider ing the sentence passed upon Jos, Byles ; but they were unwilling to do so with)ut asking the opinion of the jury touching the more or less guilt or innocence of the prisoner. They did not wish to put. them into the unpleasant position of re-considerin g their verdict. There was no doubt that in point of law he was respon sible for what was found in his house ; but what the Curt desired was whether the jury upon re•coniidera tion thought that the guilt, of Joseph Byles was not so great as they originally thought it to be--whether they thought it sight that he should have a less degree of punishment. They would consider whether they could recommend him to the merciful consideration of the Court. The jury, after consulting, recommended him to the merciful consideration of the Court, in conse quence of Mr. Saunders's own recommendation. The prisoner Joseph Bylee was then sent for from the gaol, and on appearing at the bar his sentence was commuted to three months' hard labour. EMARKABL E . CASE OF TRESPASS AND POACHING. Much excitement has been produced in the town of Holt by proceedings which have been taken by Mr. George Barker, with the authority of the rector and cburchwardens, against an industrious labouring man of the name of Doughty, who has a large family, ferr tres passing on a common in pursuit of rabbits. In 1810 various lands in Holt were enclosed by authority of an act of Parliament, and the commissioners, by their award, alloted about 126 acres, called the . " Lows" to the rector, churchwardens, atir7a-Wiriiene, as trus tees, for the benefit of the occupiers of certain houses under 101. a year rent. It has been the custom for many years for she poor to cut firing, gather mannre, turn their donkeys, and kill rabbits on the common. Many, in this way, have be e n a bl e to add to their regular earnings, and, maintain themselves and families when, but for these advantages, they must have sought parish relief. The Holt-lodge estate has recently come into the possession of Mr. Barker. Part of his estate abuts on the Lows, and Ire-ie deter mined, if possible, to exercise the same right of shooting over this land (which was orieinally dedicated exclu sively for the use of the poor) that he does on his own, Mr. Barker requested permission from the rector and churchwardens to shoot over the "Lows." No applies, thin was made to the overseers for their permission. Having obtained authority from the rev. gentleman and the two churchwardens, Mr. Barker instructed his gamekeeper to prevent the poor from killing any more rabbits on this land. About the middle of January a parishioner named Doughty was seen on the "Lows" by Mr. Barker's keeper, who, after watching a consider able length of time, saw, or thought he saw, him kill something, although he could not say whether it was a hare, a rabbit' or a rat he killed. After Doughty had left the land the keeper, pouncing upon him, demanded what he got. Doughty, believing that he had as much right on the common as the keeper or his master had, refused to tell him, when the keeper told him he intended to see, and being the more powerful man of the two " turned him up," and by force took two rabbits from him. On January the 19th Doughty was summoned before the sitting magistrates at Holt, and charged under the Game Act with committing a trespass in the search of rabbits on the common. Tee Rev. J. H. Sparke, W.' H. Cozens Hardy, and \V. Pemberton, Esqs., were the magistrates on the bench. Mr. COZOIIS Eardy was not satisfied that Doughty was a trespasser, as,- for anything that appeared to the contrary, Doughty had as'much right to the common as the parties who laid the informa- Von against him. The case was adjourned for a month, that the prosecutor might obtain the opinion of counsel on the question in dispute. On February 16th the accused again appeared before Messrs. Cozens Hardy and Pemberton. The prosecutor also appeared, with Mr. Evans' " opinion" in his favour. This " opinion" did not appear satisfactory to Mr. Cozens Hardy, who could not concur with Mr. Pemberton that a trespre , s within the meaning of the act had been committed; and as these gentlemen c o uld no t agree the Case was again adjourned. Oa Saturday last Doughty appeared a third time at the Shitehall. Oh this occa-ion Mr. J. Gay, of Morning-hail (not an acting magistrate fur this division) sat on the bench. Doughty obtained the professional aid of Mr. Loyeee. The com plainant was also represented by his professional adviser, who contended that, although the pour had a right to cut, firing, &c., they had no right to the rabbits--that the rabbits belonged to the trustees, who might do anything they liked with them. It was contended by Mr. Loyeee that the trustees had only beneficial interest in the land that they had only the legal estate, and uo power what ever to take the rabbits from the poor and give them to Mr. Barker. On resuming to the room, after the magis trates had consulted on the case, we learaed that Mr. Gay and Mr. Pemberton were of opinion that the case had been proved against the accused. Mr. Gay then told him that the majority of the bench had determined to inflict only le. as a fine and the costs of the proceed ings, which, as we understood, amounted together to 12e. 6d. Mr. Loynes inquired how long the accused oveuld be imprisoned in default of payment ? The: con victing magistrates, as it appi'ared to us, had not consi dered that question, and were evidently annoyed at the thought wf sending a poor industrious labuurc:r to gaol for killing a rabbit on his own common, and thus leaving his family to starve or go to the workhouse. After some consultation, it was agreed that Doughty should have a fortnight to find the money, and it was stated, tut if ho had not paid it at the expiration of that time, he should go to \Valsingbam prison for seven days. That, we fear, must be his fate, as tine and costs amount to asum equal to a week's earnings of the poor fellev7.--Norfoll Yews.

SINGULAR CASE —Joseph, Byles, who had been out on bail, and his wife and daughter Eliza and Elizabeth Buie& were charged with stealing two bushels of wheat and a sack, the property of Thomas Homer Saunderi, at 0 wer Moigne, on the 18th ult. No learned gentleman appeared for the proscuti:in, and the prisoners were un defended. The facts of the case we reported fast week ; but we repeat them hero in order that the whole of this extraordinary case may present itself to the reader at one view. The committing magistrates were Herbert Wil liams and H. N. Middleton, 11,Airs. Prosecutor holds a farm at MoigneDown, in the parish of Ower Moigne. line prisoner resided in one of his cottages on that farm, the father and daughter being in his employ. In consequence of Mr. Saunders hearing that there had been a quantity of wheat sent-to Warm well Mill from the prisoner's cottage on the 18th ult., prosecutor went to Byles's house, and found about two bushels of wheat in one of his sacks in the pantry. He said to Mrs. Bytes. who was then in the house, " Where did you get this ?" She replied, "It is some of the lease earn." Witness had a field in which wild oats were prevalent, and the produce of which was being t' in ths barn where the daughter worked. Perceiving that the sampfe was the same as the wheat from that field, he said "You don't lease oats with corn —there are hoar oats with this." He reiterated his opinion that it was his wheat on account of the wild oats amongst it. She at first said she had bought it ; but afterwards ac knowledged that it was his wheat—some she had picked up when the men got the rick in. Prosecutor then went to Byles, who was working near, but he disclaimed all knowledge of there being any wheat is his house. He said the grist prosecutor al!owed him was not enough for his family, that they had constantly bought fi•mr from Mrs. Chilcott's, and that the week before his wife bad bought some from the mill, the money for which she had of prosecutor, as he was aware. Thomas Thompson, employed at Mrs. Chilcott's mill, was then present, and prosecutor asked him how much wheat, over and above his grist, he had ground from Byles's cottage since harvest, to which he replied that he could nut exactly tell, but he thought about five sacks altogether. He also said that the daughter mostly brought the wheat in the evening, after dark. Samples of the wheat from the barn, as well as that found in the prisoner's house, were produced, and several witnesses were examined in support of the case ; but there ap peared to be little to implicate Joseph Byles, who still disclaimed all knowledge of the wheat being in his house. Mrs. Byles said it was what she had picked up after the " mows," or ricks, had been put into the barn; and the daughter said she knew nothing about the mat ter, except that she had taken wheat to the mill when her mother told her. The above facts were deposal to on the trial befor the Chairman of Quarter Sessions, and Joseph and Elizabeth Bytes were found guilty of receiving, but the daughter, ElizAbeth Bytes, was acquitted. The male prisoner was then sentenced to nine months' hard la bour, and his wife to six months.—This case was dis posed of on the first day of the Sessions, but,it was again brought before the notice of the court, when tb• Chairman, addressing the jury, said the magistrates were always gratified when they had an opportunity of consulting the jury, who were by law empowered to judge every case that came before them, and be now desired them to direct their attention to one of the roost remarkable circumstances that during his ex perience —an experience extending over twer:ty years—one of the most singular circumstances he had yet met with. They had paid the most marked attention to the curious and intricate case of J•- seph Bytes, Eliza Byles, and Elizabeth Byles. The evidence showed that the daughter was working in the barn—whether they were guided altogether by a merci ful view of her oase he did not say ; but that wheat was ► brought to the house of the prisoner was certain ; and _NATIONAL EDUCATION.

Their pay bas not been increased, and,they naturally feel aggrieved'at witnessing the ad vent of strangers to offices which they had hoped some of their body might have been permitted to fill. The zeal of the dockyard clerks cannot be doubted. We have ourselves frequently witnessed the energy, atten tion, and perseverance which they,laave brought to the discharge of their duties ; and as they are not permitted by the existing absurd regulations to rise 'to supreme esenenand in the establishtnents—the good government of which so eminently depends upon their exertions—we think it very hard that they should be prevented from aspiring to any little preferment which the chapter of accidents brings about. We leAve their case in the hands of Sir Charles Wood, with the utmost confidence that justice will not be denied them. DEATH OF GENERAL GEORGE WRIGHT, ROYAL ENGINEERS. We regret to learn General George Wright, colonel commandant of the Royal Engineers, died on the sLli inst. at Cheltenham, after a service of more than 60 years in that distinguished, corps. The gallant general was in the 79th year of his age; and obtained the rank of second lieutenant in 1796, and bad seen considerable service. He served in the West Indies during the war with France from 1800 to 1305 inolusive, including the capture of the islands of St. Lucia and Tobago from the enemy. • He also served in North America, Canada, Nova Bootie, and New Br un+w i c k , ' d ar i ng the 'hob of the last war with the United States undet Generals Sir' George Prevost and Sir John Sherebrooke, and with the latter general served as deputy quartermister-general of the forces in the provinces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The gallant deceased • subsequently volun teered his services to Ceylon during the rebellion of the liandian provinces, and on his return to his native country paid an official visit to the Court of Persia. The deceased was appointed a coloml commandant of ,the Royal Eneineera in March, 1351:111i commissions bore date as follows :—Second , lieutenant, Aug. 15, 1796 ; first lieutenant. Aug. 29, 1793 ; captain, April 3, 1804 ; brevet major, June 4, 1814 ; lieutenant-colonel, Deic. 20, 1814 ; colonel, July 29, 1825 ; major-general, Jan. 20, 1837 ; lieutenant-general, Nov. 9, 1816; and general, June 20, 1854. (From, Ike Morming Herald) The Morning Herald has ever been the staunch ad vocate of the rights of officers belonging to her Majesty's navy. We must, therefore, express our deep regret at a recent order that completely shelves many, very many, deserving and gallant officers. \ quote the following from the speech of the Fir L - ird, Sir C. Wood, in the House of Commons : "In the curse of the present year a change has been made in the mode of paying captains. Instead of being paid according to the rate of the ship in which they are employed, they are paid according to their standing on the captains' lint. It may be desiral.dc, on account of the importance of the coisimand, to employ a captain of high standing in a small ship, and I think it would be a great injustice to give the lower rate of pay. " It is therefore now provided that captains shall be paid at:circling to their standing on the list (in whatever size ship they may serve), and at the same time we have raised the pay of the lower class of captains—of all below the first 170, because we thought it not adequate to meet the expenditure which in these days they may be called upon to make." The Admiralty circular states : "Feb. 1, 1856. "Fall pay of captains of the Royal navy has been established by her Majesty's crder in council of the 30th of January, 1856. "First Class—To the first 70 captains on the list, when employed, irrespective of the class of ship in which they may be serving, 7011. 2s. ld. per annum. " Second Class—To the next 100, when fully em ployed, 5741. 17s. 61. per annum. "Third Class—To all other captains below the first 170 on the list, when employed, 4501. 3s. 4d. per annum. "The above rate is to apply only to such captains as may have been appointed subsequently to the date of her Majesty's order in council establishing the same, excepting those captains now serving as commodores in command of stations, and those captains of the lowest class now actually serving, whose full pay is less than 4001. per annum, who are ti become entitled to the new class of pay from and after the Ist of April, 1856. "By command of their Lordships. R. OSISORI1E." Now, in reviewing the above, there is el idently such a manifest injustice to many valuable and excellent of. ficers, that we will venture to hope the Lords of the Ad miralty may be pleased to take into consideration how much injustice inadvertently appears on the face of this recent order. We have only to enumerate the following list of of ficers—captains in actual service at the present moment —who aru entitled to as increase of pay according to their standing on the list, but excluded in consequence of the late Admiralty circular : Capt. M'Dougall, superintendent of packet service, Southaapton. Capt. Kincorne, Royal William, Plymouth. The above offi cers are entitled to 7001. per annum, but only in receipt of 6001. Then follow the Hon. Capt. Elliott, Sybille ; the Hon. Capt. Keith Stewart, Nankin ; Capt. Frederick, Presi dent ; Capt. Watson, Imperieuse ; Capt. Morshead, Dido; Capt. Ramsay, Euryalns ; Capt. Hastings, Cura can ; Capt. Lyster, Arrogant ; Capt. Buckle, Valorous ; Capt. Baillie, Meander ; Capt. Sullivan, Merlin, &c. The above officers are entitled to 5741. 17e. 6d. per annum, instead of being paid to the rate of the ships they now command. Captains now in command of screw block ships who aro not entitled from their stand ing on the list, yet continue to receive 7001. per an num, whereas if paid acccording to their proper standing many !of them would only receive 450/. per annum, provided the supposed improvement be strictly carried into effect. The whole is as inconsistent as it is unjust towards those officers who are excepted. SIR CHARLES WOOD AND THE DOCKYARD CLERKS. We have, from several quarters, received accounts of the dissati•faction which has been engendered among the clerks at the various dockyards in consequence of the nomination of certain gentlemen from Somerset House to the situations of accountants at the several yards. We know, upon most excellent authority, that there would have been no difficulty whatever in selecting, from among upwards of 150 clerks, four gentlemen in every way qualified for the simple duties of managing the cash tranactions of the respective yards. We have very frequently taken opportunities of bearing testimony to the impartial conduct of Sir Charles Wood since he bas beet at the helm at Whitehall ; and we are not in the least afraid but that he will yet pause before he Con firm the appointments to which we now allude. The dockiard clerks kav# for th e l as t throe - e - yego been THE BRITISH* GERMAN LEGION. On Saterday morning a review of the British German Legion by Major-General Wetherell, Adjutant-General, and the presentation by him of a set of Royal and regi mental colours, by command of her Majesty, tceone of the regiments of which it is composed, and now ahnut to proceed to the East, imparted an unwonted degree of animation anffinterest to the whole camp at Sh ornc liff e , where it has been principally trained for active service during the last year. This foreign auxiliary legion, now fast approaching completion, will ultimately consist of two regiments of Jagers (rifles), six regiments of light infantry, and two of light dragoons, making an aggregate force of about 10,000 men, and will be divided into two brigades of in infantry and a brigade of cavalry. Besides these, two depot regiments wit' eventually be Formed, one for each brigade, and of the same strength as the other regiraents. The first brigade, consisting of the Ist Jager Corps, and the Ist, 2d, and 3d Light Infantry Regiments, is now stationed at Kueelee, under the command of Brigadier Woolridge, formerly colonel on the staff of General Sir De Lacy Evans in Spain ; and three companies of the let Light Infantry are at Sinope, protecting Govern ment stores. The 2d Jager Corps and the 4th Regi ment of Light Infantry are now at Shorncliffe, complete and ready for service, and are destined to proceed to Scutari in 10 days er a fortnight. The let and 2d Light Dragoon regiments, also at Shorncliffe, at present want their full complement both of men and horses. Each regiment of cavalry, when complete, will muster 600 hor,e3 and 775 men, and each regiment ef infantry 1,077 men. The sth Regiment of Light Itifaiary, ,now in course of rapid formation in Heligoatnd, will be c nnp'ete in about 10 days, and 700 of them (the present numerical strength of the regiment) will be removed to Shorncliffe towards the end of this week. The 6th Light Infantry iS also being embodied at Shorneliflo, and will probably be complete by the end of the present month. The sol diers composing the legion have been collected from nearly every part of Germaey, but principally in Hano ver, Brunswick, Schleswig-Holstein, Oldenburg, Meck lenburg, the Prussian Rhenish provinces, Bavaria, Nas sau, and fleece, including some Belgians. They count in their ranks, as non-commissioned officers' or privates, many young men of superior education and good fami lies, and, in some instances, soldiers who have served as subaltern officers in different parts of Germany. The whole force is under the comtnand of Major-General Baron Stetterheim, who formerly served with Gen. Sir De L. Evans in Spain, and lately held a command in the army of Schleswig-Holsteie. This Officer, by whose indefatigable exertions, in spite of almost insuperable difficulties and discouragement., the legion has been em bodied and brought to its present satisfactory state of efficiency, has endeared himself to the whole corps, officers as well as men, by an habitual comrso of kind and considerate conduct, without in the least relaxing the necessary rigours of discipline. He will leave Shorn cliffe in a few days with his staff, and proceed to Con stantinople to take command of the two brigades of in fantry and the brigade of cavalry. The officera of the cavalry are chiefly English, and those of the infantry almost wholly German. The ceremony of Saturday possessed considerable in terest. The day was fine, and many of the inhabitants of the adjacent towns of Folkestone, Saudgate, and Hyt he attended to witness it. About half-past ten o'clock Major-General Wetherell, accompanied by Major Gene ral Stutterhehn and the efficers of his staff, and Colonel Xinloch, appeared upon the ground. At that time the two regiments of cavalry, the 21 -Tager (Rifle) Corps, and the 4th Regiment of Light Infantry, were drawn up in line, forming two sides of a square, and as the Adjutant-General approached they presented arms, and the bands of the several regiments played the national anthem. The cavalry wore under the command of Colo nels Percival and Fleming; the 4th Light Infantry of Lieutenant-Colenel Humphrey ; and the Rifles, of the Hon. S. Jocelyn. General Wetherell having ridden along the line and closely inspected the me n and horses, an open square was formed, consisting of the two regi ments of Light Drageons on the right, and the Rifles on the left,—the 4th Regiment, to which the nolours were presented, occupying the centre. The Rev. Mr. Wil mans, Field Chaplain of the 2d Brigade, then proceeded to consecrate the colours, which were raised en two pyramids of muskets. Major-General Wetherell then, addressing the regiment, said it was hie pleasing duty, by command of her Majesty, to present those colours to them, and it would be their duty to defend them, conse crated as they had been by the ceremony which they had witnessed. Colours, he added, became the soldier's altar, on which he vowed allegiance to his Sovereign, and in defending whose honour he defemled his own. He hoped, in the field to which they were about to be called they would seek to etnultite, shou:d occasion offer, those deeds of heroism which would distinguish the re cent campaign above every other for all time. Baron Stutterheine rendered the Adjutant-General's address into German, and at his suggestion the soldiers gave three heatty cheers for the Queen. The cavalry then marched past, first at a walk, and then at a brisk trot ; and the infantry, first in open columns of compa nies, and then in double columns of companies to the centre, after the manner of the Qerman column of attack. The Adjutant-General subsequently made a minute in spection of the arms and accoutrements •f each com pany, passing up and down both the front and rear ranks. He was also shown over some of the barrack huts, and expressed his satisfaction at the cleanly and orderly state iu which they were, as also with the manner in which the regimental accounts were kept. SERJ.PIANT BRUDIE. The following Las been addressed to a contempo- rary : Sitt,—ln the Parliamentary report which appeared in the papers of Saturday, I observe that Colonel Dunne, in Friday night's debate relative to army clothing ap pointments, is reported to have said that I was not fit to be trusted as inspector of saddlery, at Weedon Bar racks, to which situation I have been lately appointed by Lord Paninure. On reading Colonel Dimue's remarks I was very much surprised and hurt, as I had thought that my persecution was over. Being anxious to learn Colonel Dunne's reasons for his extraordinary conduct in this matter, I immediately came up &rim Weedon and wasted upon him, and told him that hie statement was cruel and untrue, as it tended to deprive me of the moans of subsistence for my family. I also asked him what he knew of me (as I had never served under him) to cause him to put forth such a statement. The only reply ho made was—" You had no business to interfere with offi cers in a duel." Now, as this is the only reason Col. Dunne can assign for supposing me incompetent for the post of inspector-foreman of saddlery, I am quite content to leave the public to form its own judgment of the merits of the case, merely adding that I have in my pos session testimonials from general officers, colonels, cap tains, lieutenants, cArnets, and also from wholesale sad dlers' ironni.mgers, all giving me the highest character, and testifying to my thorough knowledge of saddlery. By the insertion of this letter you will much and deeply oblige yours, &c., ALIXANDER. BRODIE, late Saddler-Serjeant, the Royal Dragoons. Alliance Hotel, Hanover street, Long•acre, March 9. THE OAINIBUS CONFEDERACY.•—The following further purchases have been made by the company since their last communication : On the New-road, those of Messrs. Hammond, Burgin, and Williams ; from Oxford street, those of Mr. Williams and Mr. Bolton; thole of Mr. E. H. Rhodes, running between Bayswater and the City ; and Mr. Antler's lot," consisting of three Bayswater and Whitechapel, five Hampstead and the Bank, two Kentish-town to the Bank, three York and Albany's to Camberwell-gate, one York and Albany to Kent-road, and two Camden-town to Hungerford-market.

Langley, Gamble, and Cox, have also become the property of the London General Omni. bus Company, whose territory now extends from Vaux hall to TUB LATE JOHN ;SADLP,III, M.P. (From. the Times of this day.) John Sadleir was a natioaat It is not often that an individual rises to a position ofsuch infamous no toriety, but the truth is, now that the whole story of his frauds is beginning to assume shepe and form, that the prosperity of a whole province has received a severe shock from his proceedings. He has forged title-deeds of estates, he has forged private aceeptances and seceri• ties, and by his connection with -the Tipperary Bank he has contrived to swindle the population of the south, of Ireland to an amount which is already stated at 400,0Q0/., and which will probably reach the full proportion of the half-million. Against this result is to be set a suns of some 35,0001., and, of course, whatever may be recovered by the process of selling up innocent shareholders. This is, after all, but to shift the burden, from the shoulders . of the manyeto the shoulders of the few ; and, even if it can be done with a reasonable degree of success, it is scarcely, to be' expeCted that the creditors will regain anything trier e than a smellperceutage of their loss. On Tuesday of last Week the case was' brought before the . Master of the Rolls in Dublin, on a motion that the. co -- partnership should , be diesolved,and the affairs, be wound up in conformity with the provisions of the Winding-up Act. Oa this occasion, in delivering his judgment,: the Master of the Rolls stated the actual position cif affairs to be as f alloWs :—" The, late John Saolleir was per mitted by his brother, the sole director and manager of the bhnk, to overdraw his ace mut, to the extent of 200,0001., withotit the knowledge, s conseat, or privity 'of a single other contributory, or creditor, so far as this Court has heard or knows., The liabilitiee of the Bank are 'altogether, in round num 'hers; 400,0001.- ; it was in a state of the m .st hopeless insolvency on the lst of February last, and the assets are not pretended to be more ,in round numbers,, than 35,090/." This being' so. iriltalitirplening of; February a circular was issued with the .object of persuading the " deluded, defrauded, and unfortunate contributors," not only that the Tipperary Joint-stock Bank was in a thoroughly solvent and satisfactory state, but that it was actually io a condition to pay a bonus of 3 per cent. on a paid-up capital of 100,0001 , and that after the payment of the bonus a surplus would remain ! Toe story appears to be even more pitiable than was at first supposed, now that the social position of the majority of the sufferers has been more clearly ascertained. We hear of small farmers, traders, clerks, assistants, police officers, &c., who have feat their little accumu lations from the thrift of many yea's. The provision for families is gone—the fund which bad been provide] for the support of declining life in many instaaces is gone too. As we read in a local journal, "the deluded victims are left penniless, hopelee e and in the most afflicting despair." This is all -very terrible, and the more so when the peculiar circumstances of Ireland are taken into consideration. In our own portion of the empire the aggregate mass of wealth is so great, that if one, two, three thousand persons are suddenly reduced from of luenco to poverty, the chances are that in the majority of instaccee the victims will find an oppor tunity of gaining the means of subsistence without undergoing the humiliation of public pauperism. In Ireland--:in the south of Ireland, it is otherwise. Life is there a hard struggle indeed, and few are the chances of recovery to those who have been foiled in the game. is a surprising fact that it should be in the power of any mail to swindle his fellow-suhjects to the amount of a million sterling, and yet this sum will probably fall short of the reality when the full extent of John Sadleir's frauds has been ascer• tained. What with the Tipperary Bauk—what with the forgeries of private acceptances—what with the frauds arising from the forgery of title-deeds, Ireland alone will stand as sufferer for the larger pohtion of the sum. The railway and bank accounts in London will complete the tale. There is no instance in history, as far as our re collection extends, which can servo as a parallel to this gigaatic fraud, for iu the case of Law the Scotch adven turer represented rather the Regent and the Government of France than himself. Much the same thing may be said of the heroes of the South Sea Bubble, and the rail way mania of our own times. All the world was mad ; and certain clear-beaded sharpers farmed the madness in the names of various companies which were , known to be made of such stuffas dreams are made of. Oar forefathers, and the present generation, too, upon these occasions, all went mad together, and the inevitable consequences followed when the crash-time came. The case, however, of John Sadleir--and, from what we now see, we fear it moue be said of James Sadleir also—rests upon a very different foundation. We are not all rushing do en to , Brokershalley or Capel-court ; we are not looking for 60 per cent. and unquestionable security. We are, on the contr 'rev, busy with a troublesdnie and expensive war. We are scraping together pence, rather than risking pounds for the sake of inordinate gain. The present period, for the maj irity of Englishmen, is one of econo my, rot of speculation. In the midst of all our caution, however, of all our thrift, of all our circumspection, a knave slips unawares into the camp and swindles his fellow-subjects out of the enormous sum of 1,000,0001. sterling. The history of John Sadleir—let us rather say of John and Jambs Sadleir—is curious enough when contrasted with their performances. They are not in the position of gamblers who have thrown a heavy stake opon the table and lost it. Their father is at present living, a small tenant farinsr in the south of Ireland. From such an origin, respectable enough, John Sadleir started in life, and con trived to swallow up a million of money before he put an end to his existence on Hanapetead-heath. The career of John Sadleir after his departure from the farm is now notorious enough, Provincial attorney, and then at torney in Dublin, political intriguer, Lord of the Trea sury, railway chairman, and bank director—such were the steps of his career, until he concluded it as specula- tor, swindler, and suicide. This hideous history may not, we earnestly trust, prove without effect. It is impossible te be mixed up with society in London—and the provincial capitals, it appears, are not behind us in this respect—without be coming painfully aware of the range of illegitimate spe culation. The men who engage in this unfortunate ca reer never seem to consider that they are playing against loaded dice. One euceeeds in the desperate game, and a thousand perish—the success of the one is magnified, and proclaimed with admiration and envy from mouth to mouth ; the ruin of the thousand passes without notice and without comment. The art of con• verting airy nothings into solid coin is far too much in vogue for public security or public happiness. This is : an error beyond the reach of legislation. Under any system of laws which grants to commerce that freedom without which counmerce cannot subsist, the unfair spe culator will have his opportunities, and will abuse them. On persons who are inclined to enter upon such a path remonstrance would be thrown away—we can simply point to the grave of John Sadleir, and say, " Take warning !" It may well be that to few persons will be granted the opportunity of perpetrating frauds upon so gigantic a scale. Thus, from want of occasion, rather than of will, they may avoid the full mea sure of his despair, and the full horror of his fate. Let thorn, however, he well assured that, without the dismal success of John Sadl eir, and without the agony of his closing life, the Demon of Speculation has secondary punishments in store for its victims, sharp enough to deter any but madmen from :venturing their good name and happiness in such a career. HAAIP,S'TBAD HEATH. (Front the rimes of this cloy.) That it would be a pity to destroy liarnpste,ad•heath any one who has ever been there will at once admit. With the finest parks iu the world, Londou is still far too much of a city and breathes too little of the country. It is a city, not of palaces, like Paris, nor of temples, like Rouse, but of cities like itself alone—a number of townships that on the continent would each make a very respectable capital going to form the great metropolis. But, though it is every day spreading further and fur ther, we are now and then threatened with the loss of the few scraps of field and garden that are left to us in this wilderness of brick and mortar. St. James's-park has just been saved from an encroachment that would virtually have destroyed it. Hampstead-heath is now, by the spread of buildings all around, eqrally endan gered, although not in the same manner. The heath consists of about 200 acres of land, and is overlooked by eminences in the adjoining fields which are admirably adapted as sites for houses, which contractors would gladly occupy, and which the possessor would gladly dispose of. But by the erection of houses on these emi nences the beauty of the heath would be very much destroyed. It is, indeed, not the fault of the present proprietor that a single acre remains free from bricks and mortar. By the will of his father, however, be has no power to grant building leases over thil portion of his estates, and the property is available only for agri celtural purposes. It is, therefore, in the mean time of less value than if it were held without that prohibition. Sir Thomas Wilson, it is true, has several times applied to Parliament for a private bill to remove the prohibition, although hitherto without success ; but if the more general measure which I has in this se , sion been introduced into the House of Lords in relation to the leases and sales of settled estates should become law, he may effect his purpose by obtain ing an order from the Court of Chance;ry. At all events, Sir Thomas Wilson cannot live for ever; on his decease the entail is liable to be cut off; all impediment to the erection of buildings will then be at an end, the property will rise in value, and the Heath will run a great risk of being spoiled. That the inhabitants of the neighbour hood should be solicitous for the safety of their suburL;an park can excite no surprise, and that they should se riously propose to Lily up the Heath, together with the adjoining grounds, now that it can be obtained at a coal• paratlvely cheap rate, is a step the wisdom of which no one will impugn. In all about 300 acres, it is supposed that this space of ground can be purchlved for about 100,000/. ; and as its natural beauty requires little arti ficial aid, there will be no necessity, as in the case of the Victoria and other parks, for any considerable outlay beyond that of the actual purchase. The inhabitants of Hampstead have made a very wise proposition, but unfortunately they have not addressed it to the proper quarter. The question is, who is to pay for this park, and the vestry of St. John, Hampstead, supported by various other vestries and deputations, re ' quest the Metropolitan Board of Works to undertake the buiinesi, anl to do it it: once, While it can be done I cheaply. - It seeing not yet dicavered that the Metro politan Board of Works eintibt'dn' everything at once, and that there are some things Which it cannot do at all. It is at present beset with schemes of every descrip tion and magsitu , ie•—all urgent,.and all within its sphere. "Two' or three dozen streets are to be knocked down and built up, sewers innumerable rare to be c o nst r u c t e d, and,. above oll,thines, the ThirneS; itself is to be purifi e d. With all thi4,- the Board of Wokes has enough to do in the metropolis without ,driving; away to Hampstead to purchase a suburban park. Tee people of Hampstead, who are most interested in this matter, are a very wealthy community ; and if, instead of requesting tha Board of Works—whose business it is to make streets and rewer , , and not suburban parks—to rate the whole [metropolis for the purchase-money of the Heath, they would rate themselves, or subscribe among themselves, they might easily do not a little towards effecting a per 'chase, and could then, wits some ,shOw of reason, ask Parliament for a grant. And• it is not merely their own pleasure that they would coilealt in so doing. but also their own interest. :We are all interested as Londoners in preservingHarepstead-heatb, hut not so much as those who h ave houses and property' in the immediate neighbenrhood, the value of which would be pr qtly im proved by the formation of a park. It is blt fair that those who - will gain most should pay most ; and, if they really show Horne ptiblie spirit in endeavouring to obtain this park, .we are pretty confident. that the House of Comtnons will meet them in the same liberal spirit. Atneng thoie who will vote thesa a supplementary grant we may, with some confidence, place the name of every member who lately voted against Sir. Joshua Walmsley's motion. If the house will not consent to open Museums, it will certainly not consent to shut the parks. St. James's-park has been saved throsgh its instrumentality, and we are sure it will make any reasonable effort to save Hampstead-heath. LA W INTELLIGENCF.—Mareh 8. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN BE MARK BOYD, STOCK AND SHABEBROKEU, OF BANK BUILDINGS. The inquiry into this bankrupt's case Wag resumed this morning. Mr. Roxburgh (instructed by Mr. Henry Harris) ap peared for the assignees; Mr.Lawrance for the bankrupt. At the last meeting it was arranged that the assignees should address certain requisitions in writing to the bankrupt. Mr..Lawrance said the requisitions were only received two days agn, and he proposed to take the opinion of the Court whether the bankrupt should be compelled to answer them. The requisition®, six in number, were then read over seriatim. The first required a statement of th 3 account between B. and M. 13, , yd and 13. Boyd, showing the ac count due to B. Boyd in respect to his share of the profits, and charging him with all payments on his acciunt. His Honour disallowed this requisition. . . The second requisition, which asked the bankrupt for a list of the debts provable against his estate by the cre ditors of the Royal Bank of Australia, was allowed. The third requisitior, asked for the particulars of items, 13,000/, and 9,0001., charged as shipments from Mark Boyd to Benjamin, between the years 1843 and 1843. His Honour disallowed this requisition. Some discussion took place upon the fourth question. It appeared that in 1849 a Mr. Borthwick, accountant, of Edinburgh, had been sent up by the Scotch creditors and shareholders to inquire into the effAirs of the Royal Bank of Australia and of the Boyds. Mr. Borthwick alleged that he had then seen a book in the possession of the bankrupt, in which the account of Benjamin Boyd showed a balance of 25,000/. as owing to the bankrupt.. No operations had taken place on that account since 849, yet it now appeared that, so far from B. Boyd being indebted to the bankrupt, the latter was indebted to B. Boyd to the arn , unt of 63,0001. The assignees now required the product on of the book. The bankrupt said that Mr. Brownhorr, who atttended his brother's business in L - onion, had' left in 1849, taking teary books with him. The other books were in the hands of Mr. Wryghte, the a , signee. • Two of Mr. Wryghte's clerks swore that, as late as January, 1855, they saw in Mr. Boyd'a office a book with a white cover, which is now missing, and which contained an account headed "Benjamin Boyd, Sydney." The Scotch accountant having described the book as a ledger, his Honour doubted whether he referred to the `• book" mentioned by the witnesses, Which was more in the nature of a jotter's. He disallowed the requisition. After some discussion, Mr. Roxburgh asked the bankrupt to explain how he arrived at the balance of 63,0001. due to B. Boyd 2 His Honour—l shall not requira him to answer that question. Mr. Lawrance—They only want a peg to hang an appeal upon. His Honour—How can he answer that ? This is the examination of the Commissioner, and the bankrupt ie net bound to answer a question which I think should not be put. _ _ Mr. Roxburgh—Can you explain, then the 71,2891. profits, and show where they appear in your books? His Honour—You need not answer that question. Mr. Roxburgh—There 37,0001. odd allege , no be due by the Royal Bank of Australia, can you explain that ? His Honour—You need not answer that question. Mr. Roxburgh—l find there is an item of 17,945/. for office expenses—explain that, and point them out in your books? His Honour—You need not answer that question. Mr. Roxburgh—Explain the item 46,4761. private expenses 1 His Honour—Yon need not answer that question. Mr. Roxburgh—Explxin the item 49,0001., eet down as lossrs ? His Honour—You need not answer that question. His Honour, after F onie discussion, sanctioned the fifth and sixth requisitions, the former requiring the bankrupt to vouch his expenditure (2,C00/. per annum) during the last three years, and the other to explain where he charged himself with 13,500/. paid for Benja min Boyd. This rarnarkable inquiry was adjourned for the bank rupt to give in the answom I A-Pril I I.Th .All
