IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF LORDS—(This Evening.) The ,LonD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack •t 5 o'clock. ROYAL COMMISSION. The Royal assent was given by commission to the fol lowing bills :—Excise ; Insurance on Lives (Abatement of Income Tax) ; Continuance of West India Loans ; Transfer of Works (Ireland) ; Facto ries ; Sardinian Loan ; Rotherham and Bromley moor-Road; Glasgow PAvinz ; Wolverhampton Water ; Blackburn 11,als ; Coke Valley and Halstead Rail way ; Wandsworth and Putney Gas ; Honiton and Sidwouth Road ; West Han Gas ; North British Rail way ; Penrith and Cockermouth Roads ; Carmarthen and Cardigan Railway ; D:ening Fen Drainage ; Stock port and Warrington Road ; and Elgin and Lossie mouttr Harbour. The Royal Commissioners were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Monteagle, and ho Marquis of Breadalbane. AFFAIRS OF ITALY. Lord LYNDHURST called the attention of the house and the Government to the affairs of Italy, and asked the noble earl at the head of the Foreign Depart merit whether he was prepared to lay en the table the correspondenae which had taken place between the prin cipal European Governmente in respect to the affairs of Italy. As far as regarded Napies, he feared the corres pondence hal ended in no very satisfactory result. He was induced to come to that opinion by what had passed recently in that part of Europe. He found that the mist dreadful restrictions were kept up—that even priests and other members of religion were exposed t great persecution, and even threatened with the inflic tion of the lash if they did not consent to give evidence in certain political trials. - It appeared to him that this system of persecution was but a duplicate of proceedings that had taken place in the trial of Paerio, of which the right hon. gentleman the member for the University of Oxford (Mr. Gladstone) had given so graphic a descrip tion. It appeared to him that the whole of the Govern ment of Naples was in the hands of her police agents, spies, and informers, and that the situation of affairs in that part of Italy was truly deplorable. He wished then to know whether the noble earl was prepared to lay on the table copies of the cominneicatiens which had taken place between her Majesty's Government and the Nea politan 0-overnmeet or the othrr European Govern. manta, reepeet to the affeire f Italy ? The Earl of CLARENDON said he wag not then prepared to lay upon the table the correspondence which had taken place between her Majesty's Govern-. erter.t and the European governments in respect to the affairs of Italy: The correspondence was net yet concluded. No answer had as yet been received to the despatch which had been communicated by her Majesty's Government in conjunction with that of the French Emperor to the Neap ilitan Government. It appeared that at the lime the despatch had arrived the King of Naples was absent from his city. He, how eve!, returned in a le .v days, and he had reason to believe that that answer would be received very soon. Until that reply had been received, the noble and learned lo would understand the: it would be altogether pretneture to lay the correspondence upon the table of the house. In respect to the correspon fence that had taken place betwen her Majesty's Government and the other Euro pean Governments in regard to the affeirs of Italy, it was true her Majesty'e Government had offered opinions and advice to those governments whose armies occupied a portion of the Papal States. (Hear, hear) But he did not think that the cause which they had at heart would be at all nerved by the production of the corres pondence. He believed that the only result of so doing would be to check that friendly and confidential tone of correspondence that was now going on. The noble and learned lord might however accept the answer that everything would be done by her Majesty's Go vernment to bring about the desired result in Italy. He believed that he might add that both France and Austria had declared tl-ir willingness to withdraw their troops from the Papal States as soon as certain condi tions were aereed to. Lord LYNDiIUEST asked whether it was possible before the termination of the session that the correspon dence would he produced. The Earl of CLARENDC)N cou;d not say ; but the noble and learned lord would have plenty of opportuni ties of repeating his queation. THE OATH OF ABJURATION BILL. The Earl of Derby Fait' it was noc his intention, in consequenc e of the course taken by the noble and learned lord at that late period of the asssion, of proceeding fir ther with his bill. After some clnversation the orier of the day was read and discharged. EAST INDIA COMPANY. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE wilted whether the sum cf 500 t. lately subscribed by the chairman of Directors of the East India Company, in aid of the suf. ferers by the inundations in France, had been supplied by proprietor 4 of East India Stock, or had been taken tram the public revenues of India ? [LEFT SPEAKING.] ROUSE OF COMMONS --(This Evening.) The SPRIT :ER took the chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords amendmoiats to the Eastern Union Rail -I!ay ; London, Tilbury, and Southend Railway (Exten mow and Branchas) ; Middlesbrough Improvement ; Tormoham Water ; and Yarmouth and Haddiscoe Rail way Bills were considered and agreed to. The time and passedNorth-Weatera Railway Bill was rea d a third The Boston. Sleaford, and Midland Counties Railway Amendment Bill was -read asecond time. THE PEACE FIREWORKS. Mr. M. CHAMBERS moved fora return, in detail, of the total amount of the exp enses incurred in the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich, in the p reparation of the fireworks for the celebration of the pease„includi ng t h e coat of materials, w or k men 's wages, and all experiments connected therewith.—Ordered. THE AUSTRALIAN MAIL CONTRACT. Mr. HAMILTON asked the Secretary of the Trea sury whether he had any objection to lay on the table or the house a copy of all tenders, and of all correspond ence relating thereto, for th e A ustra li an postal serv ice? Mr. WILSON said it was not usual to lay on the table tenders that had been made to the Government, and not accepted. If the house gave a good reason for their production, and the parties making them had no objection to such a proceeding, he would grant the papers eked for, but not otherwise. NATIONAL GALLERY SITE BILL. In reply to Mr. SPOONER, Lord PALMERSTON said for the present session it Was not intended to ask the house to proceed far with this bill. (Loud cries of hear, hear.) It wag, therefore, his intention to move that the order be now read and discharged. The order was accordingly read and discharged. AFFAIRS OF GREECE. Mr. JAS. MACGRE C3O R asked whether the Govern ment were prepared to communicate to the house the correspondence respecting the relations between this country and Greece, which had taken place subsequently to that already laid before Parliament extending to May, 1854 ? Lord PALMERSTON said be did not precisely un aerstand the question. There ba been no particular question between this .country and Greece. There h*d betn various acts of brigandage, but he had no corres• pondence to lay before the house. THE FORTRESSES OF ISNIAIL AND KILIA. Cud. DUNN E begged to a k whether any information ha , l been received on this point Lira PALMERSTON said no positive information had been received, but the Ruewians, he supposed, thought themselves at liberty to destroy the fortresses. He should have thought that it would scarcely have been worth while for the Russians to destroy that which the Terkish Government would of course reconstruet when they got possession of those places. RETIRING BISHOPS. Mr. GREGSON asked the First Lord of the Trea sury whether it was in the contemplation of Government to propose any plan for the retirement of bishops on pensions similar to the arrangements for colonial bishop., Lord Chancellors, and Ministers of State, Lord PALMERSTON said it was not his intention to propose such a measure, but the Bishops of London and Durhatn had, through ill health, placed their resignation in his hands. With those two particular bishoprics he did intend to bring in a bill for that pur pose. PURCHASE IN THE ARMY. Major REED asked the Under-Secretary for War if he could give the house and the country any informa tion respecting the commission appointed to inquire ii.to the operation of the system of purchase in the army ? Mr. PEEL said he could only inform the house that the commission had not yet fini,hed its labours. BUSINESS:OF THE HOUSE. In reply to a question from Sir J. GRAHAM, Lord PALMERSTON said he proposed to take the second reading of the Appellate Jurisdiction Bill on Monday next, and the Testamentary Jurisdiction Bill on Thursday. CORRUPT PRACTICES PREVENTION BILL. Sir F. KELLY a-.lced when the Corrupt Practices Prevention Bill would be read a second time ? Lord PALMERSTON said be was unable then to answer the question. He would give the house due notice when the second reading would take place. ROYAL COMMISSION. Mr. Pulman, the Deputy Usher of the Black Rod, summoned the Speaker and the members of the house to the House of Lords, to hear the Royal Assent given by commission to certain bills.—See Lords' report. OUR RELATIONS WITH AMERICA. On the motion for going into committee of supply, Mr. MOORE, who had a motion on the paper relative to our American relations, and Mr. BROWN, rose together. Mr. BROWN called upon the hon. member for Mayo to withdraw his motion. There was a strong feeling throughout the country that our American differences should be left in the hands of the Government and the American Minister in this country to settle, and if the house abstained from discussion on the matter it would be amicably accomplished. (Hear.) Mr. CHEETHAM and Mr. J. EWART concurred in the appeal of the hon. member. Mr. SPOONER also coincided in the appeal. (Hear.) He implored the house to give up all party considera t ons on this question, and complete the silence they had hitherto maintained till they learned from the Minis ter of the Crown the result of the negotiations now going on. He deprecated any discussion now on the state of our American relations, for no possible good could re sult from it. Mr. R. MOORE deprecated being actuated with any party feeling in bringing forward the following motion, which he hal placed on the table of the house, viz. :—" That the conduct of her Majesty's Government, in the differences that have arisen between them and the Government of the United States, on the question of enlistment, has not entitled them to the ap probation of this house." The hon. gentleman proceeded to address the house, and in doing so contended that the neutrality laws of England had been grossly and deliberately violated by persons acting with the consent and appro bation of her Majesty's Government, and that they had contemplated, sanctioned, .and did violate those 'aws, and it was necessary for the house to express their unfavourable opinion of such conduct, be cause if they permitted it to go on unchecked it would produce the most lamentable results. (LEFT SPEAKING.) CRYSTAL PALACE COMPANY. Meeting This Day. The fourth ordinary general meeting of the share holders of this undertaking was held this afternoon at the Bridge House Hotel, London-bridge. Mr. Far quhar, one of the directors, in the unavoidable absence of Mr. Anderson, chairman to the Board of Directors, presided. The notice convening the meeting having been read by the secretary, the report and the accounts, of which the following is an abstract, were taken as read : " The directors state in their report that as soon as the hoard was fully constituted by the election of Messrs. Beale, lonides, Ogilvy, and Seymour to fill the previous vacancies the directors proceeded io reduce the ordinary expenditure of the company and to improve its revenue hy - increasing the attractiveness and usefu!ness of the Palace. In the exhibition department they had reduced the expenses by 2,0001. per annum. The remuneration to the officers had been reduced oncethird, thus saving 7001. a year, and making any further remuneration to the officers to depend on a small commission to becharged on the net profits, and to be shared by them with the general manager in proportion to the importance of their respective duties. By the abandonment of the ‘,fm ees at A delaideplace a saving of between 5001.. and 6101. a year had been effected, in the consolidation of the two tine art departments a saving of about 1,0001: per annum, making together, with other matters, a sav ing of ahouts,ooo/. on the working expenses in thecurreut year. The directars have appointed Mr. J. Fergusson, F ILA S. as general manager, and they look f orwar d with conddenne to important advantages from that ap peintment. The report adverts to the arrangements for the fetes, permanent additions to the attractions in the picture, naval, engineering, architectural, and invention departments ; and also a series of grand opera concerte. In the exhibitors' department a steady improvement is taking place ; the rental for the present year will be rather in excess of that of last year, amounting to more than 7,0001. The accounts have been very carefully and fully examined by the auditors—Mr. J. Ball, of the firm of Qailtt r, Ball, and Co., and Mr. Fletcher. The capital account states that the ultimate expenditure of . , capital Occlusive of the outlay on Dulwich wood) will be 1,355,5961. The powers of the company to meet this expenditure will stand thus : —1,225,181/. already raised; 1,0571. arrears on shares, 73,7611. debentures unissued ; 33,333/. on debentures to be issued, and 100,0001. tional capital authorised under the company's new act, making together 1,433,3331. Ample means will thus exist to meet the outlay on Dulwich•wood (35,0641.), 41(1 any contingent liability to further expenditure under the covenants of that lease. With regard to the ways and means, there will remain 91,3751. to be raised at pre sent, to meet which the existing borrowing powers of the company are amply sufficient. The directors rec3m riteirl that it should be left to them to declare a dividend cf 2s. per share on the original shares as soon as they can pay it. They state that there has been already paid a dividend of 5 per cent., free of income tax—equal to another half per cent. —and that wken the further dividend of 2 per cent. shall be paid, the return will be equivalent to 7,c per cent. on the original capital for one year and ten months' working, with the works in an in complete state. The number of two•guinea season tickets issued for the current season was 4,836, of one guinea season•tickets 13,351, and of two•guinea trans' ferable tickets 666, making together 18,853 tickets, and representing 25,5721. The West End Railway, from the Crystal Palace to Clapham, is expected to be opened in August next, and to Sloane-street Station in the sum mer of next year." The CHAIRMAN, at some length, entered into the changes that had been made by the Directors, relative to the general management of the undertaking, which was but an echo of the voluminous report of the Directors issued to the shareholders. He explained an error of 1000/. in the capital account from a mistake in the addition, and expressed his readiness to answer any question relative to the company that might be put to him. He considered the Directors had succeeded in conveying the company through a difficult period of its existence. An anonymous circular had been issued, calling on the meeting to fix a day for the payment of the dividend, but he hoped the meeting . would not do so, but leave it to the directors to declare t at a future day, because at present they had not suffi cient money in their hands with which to pay it. He referred to a suggestion that had been made to give Lhareholders an advantage over the general public, in the shape of .a free pass, but he thought it'ought not to be adopted, because this was a commercial speculation, different from the Z)ological Gardens and other places of amusement. He moved the adoption of the report. Mr. Joan:ass seconded the motion. Mr. IltratortE complained of the refreshment depart ment being out of their. own hands, and Ahab' the charges were -too high, and urged on the directors making better arrangements for the visitors. ggeited. that the supply o f refresh meAntSs H sh e o n u E l s d o b L e ulsu own r-n to competition, and not confined as now t one individual. There was room in the palace, and sufficient visitors attended there to sup port several refreshment rooms. Other shareholders expressed themselves to the same effect, and the feeling of the meeting Was decidedly against the directors taking the supply of refreshments in their own hands. A general feeling pervaded the meeting that the directors during the past half year had evinced an earnest desire to carry into effect the recom mendation of the shareholders for the improvement of the undertaking. A suggestion was made that refresh ment tents should be erected in certain spots in the gardens. In reply to a question, The CHAIRMAN said that the general manager was ATTEMPT AT 11JIIRDER.-012 ThißEldAy • afternoon a most murderous assault was committed by a gentleman named Wade, residing lift Lorrirnoie.terrace, Walwortb, On_ a man named Nolan, a plasterer,-in the employ of lIr• Cook, budder, Walworth•roaj ; and from the effects of whioh his life is despaired.of. Ot,being placed befor the magistrate at. the . Lambeth- Police Court, ho could wive no reason for the violent assault. He was remanded. Ball was peremptorily refused. - THE SUN, LovnpN. MONDAY EVENINfeI, JUNE SO, 1856, paid 7001. ptr annum, and a portion of a per ceutage on the profits. dLi'g r . FERGUSON ex, me at the percentage on the profits was per cent., whatever the arneunt, and that was to be divided between the general manager, secre tary, treasurer, and the two principal gardeners. The CILIIRIIIINT slid the directors were not insensible to the difficulties that beset the refreshment question, and the shareholders were not to infer that the directors con sidered thearrangementssatisfactory. When the directors threw the supply open to the trade, but one tender that of Mr. Staples was sent in, so that the directors had no choice in the matter. The third class refresh ment room was much improved, and the few persons who carried provisions with them to the palace spoke in favour of the management of the present con• tractors. Mr. Staples' contract was for three years. The resolution omitting the paragraph relative to the dividend was agreed to. In answer to a question, The CHAIRMAN said their capital was now exhausted, and for the future everything must be paid out of re- venue. A resolution was then agreed to authorising the pay ment of dividend on the preference shares. The directors were also empowered to borrow 33,333/, the balance of the account under the charter. The CHAIRMAN then moved a resolution that the dividend of 24. on the ordinary shares and the A and B shares be paid on a day fixed by the directors. Mr. PUNCIIARD moved an amendment. He objected to the percentage of 21, being paid to the officials on profits, but that the percentage should bo paid on condition that the shareholders received a dividend of 5 per cent. He thought it too bad that the officials should have divided amongst them 2,065/, on the half-year's profits, and the shareholders not be able to obtain their dividend of 2s. He moved that the proposed dividend should be paid on the Ist of August, free of income tax. Mr. F. W. DOCKER seconded the amendment. Mr. BALL (Messrs. Quilter and Ball) said be under stood the general managers and others had been in office only a few months, and their claim could not exceed over 5001. The accounts referred to by Mr. Puncbard ex tended over ten months on which the balance of 29,400/. was made 112, and he made his calculation of 2,0651. Mr. HOUSLEY said they now bad in Mr. Fergueson " the right man in the right p'ace," and that he ought to be paid liberally. He thought the principal officers should be paid by an accumulating percentage. He obj ected to the dividend being paid so early as August. (Cries of "Oh, oh," and laughter.l Asking for bor rowing powers to-day showed the directors had not the money with which to pay the dividend if they discharged their current debts. He submitted the time of payment of the dividend should be on the Ist October. Mr. PUNCHA.RD assented to the change. All he wanted was a day to be fixed for the payment of the dividend. Mr. HORSLEY suggested. that, _the shareholders should have the privilege of a free entry to the palace. (Loud cries of "No, no.") After some discussion the amendment was altered to the payintnt of the dividend on Ist October, without payment of income tax, and agreed to. The remaining resolutions, confirming the re-election of the retiring directors, and other matters connected with the company, were then agreed to, after which the meeting separated. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day; BOW-STREET. THE ALLEGED MANSLAUGHTER OF A LUNATIC.—The further hearing of this case was proceeded with this morning before Mr. Henry. Mr. Dociiiin appeared t con , ?uet the prosecution, and Mr. Clarkson for the defendant, Mr. Snaps. The first witness called was Mr. Suield, an engineer, who stated that he had examined the bath and found it very narrow. In 28 minutes 618 gallons of water would pass through it. Tne bath was 10 feet , / inch long, and 2 feet wide. Dr. Diinroond, the superintendent for the female side of the Surrey Lunatic Asylum, stated that Mr. Snape was the superintendent of the male side. After a few observations, the witness said—On the 9,.h Mr. Snape came to me and asked me to take charge of his department, as he was going out. I told him I would try. I afterwards saw him, and he said a disagreeable circumstance had just taken place ; a patient had struck him and he Lad ordered him a sharp shower bath, but that the man bad died shortly alter he came out. I said it was possible it would be advisable not to have an inquest, but the chair man must be written to, and the death treated as a sudden case. I said most likely the man died from a disease of the heart. But from certain causes I after wards wrote to Mr. Snaps, telling bins I thought he would be compelled to have an inquest. Mr. Snape came to my surgery about 11 o'clock, and he told me he agreed with the letter I had written, and said he would tell the steward to inform the coroner. He said he would make a post mortein examination, and asked me to be present. He said Blake and other patients had got hold of the affair, and that Blake said he would never re-t until shower-baths were abolished. I told Mr. Snaps he had said nothing about giving the deceased an emetic ; bet he said he told one of the circumstances a day or two ago. I told him 1 never heard of it till Barnett told me in the evening. Barnett told rue that Mr. Snaps had given Lim a strong dose of emetic—a grain and a-half of tai tar e.netic. I don't recollect.hearing anything about short allowance. The post mortern examination of the body of fi.)33y took place on the 10th. Tao body was in the dead-house, and, as I was returning from that place, I [net Mr. S:taoe. When I saw the body it was l - yrig on a table, the head and chest had been opened. On Mr. Suape opening the bead, he said Sandy (the attendant is the d,a'.l hous , e) had done more than he had told him to do. This, observation_ was made after Saape had _looked at the .head. My son, made the post mortem exarnivatioei. He ; made sections of•it. I saw the brain, but I in.tic.rd nothing of importance—nothing to ac count for &a - h. The spinal cord .was in a healthy state. The chest had been opened, but none of its contents re moved. I saw my son ctit through the perricardurn, and Mr. Snap+) said, " , That's .a diseased heart." I replied, after looking at it, that I did not see any disease, He "It is larger than it ought to be." The heart . was removed, and there was a little thickening in the vessels of the aorta. The witness then detailed the other appearances of the heart. There was nothing in the appearance of the heart that wou!cl account fur death. It was not what I should call a diseased heart. After Mr. Soaps and myself left the dead-house Mr. Suapo said, " I suppose I may safely say the man had diseased heart, but I said it was my o,rinion that there was nothing there to slnirten a man's life. I don't recollect anything the passing. The in quest was held on the 12th ; that morning Mr. Swipe C 1111'j to my surgery and said the ingairy was to take .place that afternoon, and made some observations about the heart, but I. cann-t recollect the words. I said, "Don't y , u think. if the man bad not had the shower bath and the emetic lie would have been alive now," and Alr. Swipe said, "I could not say that," and nu walked away one way, and I the other. I did not attend the ingaest, The heart was shown to Mr. Paget, professor of anatomy, and Mr. 11-andcock of Charing. cross Hospital. The heart was examined' by both those gentlemen. Mr. Lawrence also saw the heart. I was alter th:s summoned to appear before the commissioners of lunacy. In consequence of some observations of Mr. Paget, I examined different portions of the heart with a microscope, and found no change of structure or unna tural appearance. I submitted the small thickeniug I .have spoken of to the instrument, and• found it con sistel of nothing but.serus membrane and muscular fibre.. passing through it. lam still of opinion that there was nothing there to account for death. - • Thlson of Mr. Dimmondiwho performed the post-mor tem eKamination, was next called, and deposed td the fact. Mr. Clarkson— Some of the emetic was note wallowed. Would that alter your opinion ? Witness—Cattainly not. One grain of tartar emetic would he sufficient to cause vomiting. Mr. Handcock, surgeon, of Charing-cross Hospital, was next examined, and said—• Dr. Dinunond submitted to me a human heart for my opinion as to the cause of death. I did not see any appearance on it to account for death. I must make the same reservation as Mr. Paget has done, and say I have had no expe rience in the treatment of lunatics, lout that the condition of the heart dirt not, in my opinion account for death. A sane person, of sixty. five, if treated with a bath of this description and the emetic, would not survive. Dr. John Elliotson, of 37, Conduit-street, said— I have heart the evidence of the treatment of Dolby, of the shower-bath and tartar emetic, and I have also heard the evidence relative to'the appearance of the heart and its structure. From these circumstances lam in a position to form judgment on the case. I 'attribute death to long continued shower baths- and a dose of tartar emetic. In arriving at that -opinion have takeu into consideration the fact of the man being a lunatic. Cross examined—nave studied for the treatment of lunatic. If the dec aced was a highlyAxcited lunatic he would bear what, if he was not so, he could not. By Mr. Bodkin—l know that the deceased was in the bath 28 minutes. I have both seen and tried the bath. I was in it for eight minutes 40 seconds and it became very, very uncomfortable, and I shouldnot like to have stopped in any longer. Insane persons sometimes wouli bear what would kill sane persons. Ily Mr. Itetry—What is the duration of a shower bath ? Dr. Elliotson—About a minute. I take one every m.rning. but I never step in longer than* a minute. Mr. Cfarkson—lS it goid for excitement?, (Laughter.) Dr. Elliotson--Ceittlinly, in moderation. Mr. Clatkson having replied for his client, Mr. Henry said it was a case that must be tried by a jury. Dr. Snape was then fully committed for trial for man slaughter. accepted an y the slim, of 2001 Naval ai.cl I'attitary lateiligence. ARRIVAL OF THE GRENADIER GUARDS.

DEATH OF VICE ADMIRAL WARD. We regret to record the demise of Vice-Admiral W. Ward (1853), which mournful event occurred at South ampton, on the 26th inst., in the 74%11 year of his age. We extract the following account of the services of this gallant officer from O'Byrne's " Naval Biography :- This officer entered the navy March 4, 1793, as first• class volunteer or. board the Sceptre, 74, Captains J. R. Dacres and Win. Essington. On June 1, 1794, he was present, as midshipman, in company with the Belliqueux, 64, at the capture, after a smart action of some hours, of Fort Brissoton, near Port-au-Prince, which place, with several others adjacent, surrendered in the course of the same month. Having rejoined Captain Dacres on board the Barflour, 88, he took part in her in the actions of the Ile de Grois and Cape St. Vincent, June 23, 1795, and Feb. 14, 1797. He assisted also at the cuttirg out of three French men-of-war feom Tunis Bey, and at the blockade and bombardments 41 Cadiz. Towards the close of 1797 he removed to the Arethusa, 38, Captain Thos. `Volley ; under whom, we fithl, he was often, during a long and close blockade of Havre, engaLed with the ene my's flotilla and batteries. On Jan. 10, 1800, ho was mad e lieutenant into the Discovery bomb, Captains J. Dick and J. Conn, and he was next, Aug. 7, in the same year, and Jan. 14, 1801, and March 29, 1806, appointed to the Marlborough, 74, Captain T. Sotheby, Oiseau, 36, Captains S. 11. Liuzee, Wm. Parker, Lord A Fitzroy, and J. Phillips, and Pique, 36, Captains W. Cumber land and C. B. H. Roy , , on the Home and West India station, lie was wrecked in the Marlborough on a sunken rock near Belleisle, N0v..4, 1800. A.: first of La Pique he witnessed the taking, in 1803, of Aux Cayes and Cape Francis, St. Domingo. Besides aiding at the cap ture, in the course of 1804.5, of Le Terreur, French cut ter of 10 guns and 75 men, and of the Spanish ships-of war Diligentia antl Orquiio, he boarded in the gig and yawl and took, in March, 1806, after a sharp struggle, a schooner, the Santa Clara, carrying one 9-pounder and 28 men, and completely equipped for the purposes of war. He was further, March 26, 1806, present at the capture of the French corvettes Phaeton and Voltigeur of 16 guns and 115 men each. The former, after 20 minute; of destructive firing, was by him boarded at the head of about 30 men. Her decks were, inch by inch, defended with desperate obstinacy, and the slaughter on both sides was dreadful, amounting on the part of tie British (one half of their opponents were either killed or wounded) to 9 killed and 14 wound.id. Included among the danger ously wounded was Mr. Ward, whose good conduct, we learn from his captain's official letter, had at all times merited his highest approbation, and now induced him to recommend him to the commander-in-chief. As a re ward for his gallantry, he was offered by the latter the command of either of the two prizes. Choosing the one he had boarded, and whose name on her being added to the British navy was changed to Pelican, he was accord ingly appointed to her April 8 ensuing ; and on July 23 he was confirmed. He was presented, we may add, with the sum of 1001. by the Patriotic Society. He af terwards, in 1807, accompanied the expedition to Copen hagen ; and in March, 1808, having returned to the West Indies, he served at the reduction of Dsseada. On April 23 following he was nominated, on the station last named, acting captain of the Daedalus, 32 ; and he was there posted by the Admiralty, June 10, in the same year, into the Bacchante, 38, which frigate, in the spring of 1809, he brought home and paid off. He was then appointed to the Resolution, 74, and in the ensuing sum mer he sailed with the expedition to Walcheren. During the operations in the Scheldt he served with the flotilla in the attack on Ter Ver, and oommanded a division of armed transports employed to complete the investment of Flushing. He lost a lieutenant and two men in pass ing the enemy's batteries. He went on half-pay in Jan., 1810, and has not been since able to obtain an appoint ment. He attained flag rank Nov. 9, 1846." all 3 All ail .Vetertl. Kilkenn Veterfordez Liman , West Cornwall__ vest End of Londe• Ind Crystal Paiute Do.

William Leyland Wilson, second son of the late William Wilson, El., of the Army Pay-office, died on the 25th inst., at Cheltenham, in the 231 year of his age. He was promoted from acting mats of the Vengeance, 84, for active service in the Black Stu during the Rus sian war, and was recently in command of the Hardy, 2, screw. THE COLDSTREAUS AT ALDgRSHOTT. Common report attributed to the Queen the inten , ion of reviewing the troops at Aldershott on Saturday, at al rumour, which the fineness of the weather—for if was quite a "Queen's day"—seemed to sanction, attracted a great numbir of visitors, who, on arriving at the camp, had the mortification of learning that the troops were not under arms, and bad not received any intimation of 'her Majesty's desire to inspect them. But those who bad made the journey were not without their reward, for, though there was no review, the day was as full of a• - venture and pleasant excitement as any that has occurred , ince'Aldershott was reclaimed from solitude, and con verted into a great military station. The sun shone forth in unclouded sptendnur, the country beautiful, and the landscape all around the camp presented those infinite varieties of form and colour, of sound and fragrance, which are so delightfully characteristic of a midsummer day in England. It was one of Nature's holidays. The strains of martial music, the contrast of costumes, and the many striking incidents of camp life enhanced the interest of the scene ; and when the Celdstrearn Guards arrived, after an absence of nearly two years and a half from their native land, and marched into quarters amid the enthusiastic acclamations of the troops already encamped, the picture was remarkably brilliant and animated.. The regiment was conveyed from Ports• mouth in special trains, and reached the camp about 1 o'clock. The rank and file were dressed in their new tunics, hut ma. y of the officers wore the tail coats and epaulettes in which they quitted England. All were in heavy matching order—the heaviest they bad marched in since they went where glory led them. But seldom were they seen in such gallant guise. They had bueches of roses in the MUZZ'CS of their firelocks, and in their hands bouquets presented to them by the ladies of Ports mouth. Nor was it uninteresting, as indicating charac ter, to observe the strange souvenirs which many of the men brought-home with them from the scene of their adventures. Some had Russian dogs, some had Turkish goats, one had a pet singing -bird, another a black hen, and a third—a veteran warrior, with a beard worthy of E,au—fondled in his bosom a little white kitten. A. ragged old dog, which answers to the name of "Joss," is an object of fond solicitude to every man in the battali in, and very naturally so, for this chien au regiment smelt powder at the Alma and Balaklava, and felt it, to his sorrow, at Inkerman, where he was shot through the leg. The faithful creature followed the regiment through the whole campaign, and deserves a medal of more precious metal ,than the base pewter sua peoded from his neck. The tenderness with which there pet animals are treated proves that there is no moral affinity between the heads and• the head-dresses of the men, and that it may he said of the "Celdstrearns" as • truly it was observed of that rugged philanthropist, Dr. Johnson, that they have "nothing of the bear but the skin." After the troops had had time to rest themselves the men fell into rank. The band of the Rifles, which was in waitin g for them at the station, str uc k u p " Home, sweet Horne !" and to that tender and pathetic melody the Coldstreams marched into camp. The troops turned out to cheer them as they passed, and the villagers, who were scattered in various groups along the dusty road from Farnborough to Aldershott, welcomed them en thusiastically. The present representatives of this famous batlalion are young, stalwart, sinewy men ; but it must not be supposed that they are in the main, or even in a large proportion, the identical Guardsmen who left London in the dim dawn of a raw March morning in 1854. Of the 850 who followed the drum on that memorable occasion only 112 have returned, and even these are 4o strangely altered that, as Sheridan wjttily remarked of the change in his own appearance, " their oldest creditors would not know them." The regiment is at present 1,100 strong, and, though not a few of the men joined so re cently that they have never been in lotion, they are fine soldierly: fellows, and it is not to be doubted that they will worthily sustain the glory of their colours. The Caogne Gazette states that it is in contemplation to erect a monument to Handel at Hine, his native town, and that a committee of the principal inhabitants had already been formed for the purpose. The statue of the celebrated composer is to be randy for the secular fete of the anniversary of his death, which took place on April 13, 1752.
