The following is an extract from the private letter of an officer on board of her Majesty's ship Tartar ; it will, of course, be rea d with much into- rest : " H.M.S. Tartar, Galway Bay, Ireland, April 6. " We arrived here (Galway) at 6.30 p.m. from an un successful search after the missing Pacific. Our search extended to the 25th deg. of west longitude, and to 55 deg. north lat. "On the morning of the 29th ult., about 300 miles off the land, we fell in with the American ship Joseph Badger, of Prospect (Maine), from Calcutta, short of provisions, and four feet water in her hold, she baying struck a wreck to the southward of the Western Islands. We relieved her with provisions, sent men on board to pump her out dry, then sent eight men and an officer to assist in navigating her to the nearest port. " We have been cruising on excellent ground to test the foul-weather qualities of our experimental-built ship of war. The Tartar, notwithstanding the enormous weight of metal on her upper deck, has proved herself an admirable sea-boat. She rolls rather deep, but easy, and her pitching is scarcely perceptible. Ever since we lett Portsmouth we have had a continuation of strong breezes froni the SE, SW, NW, and NE." JOINT-STOCK COMPANIES. Mr. Lowe's Joint-Stock Companies Bill, in its amended form, has just been printed. It is to be called the Joint-Stock Companies Act of 1856, and is not to apply to banking or insurance establish ments. Under its provisions any number of persons not less than seven may constitute themselves an incor porated company, with or without limited liability; and after the 3d of Nov. next no body of persous exceeding 20 in number, unless they are empowered by Parliament, or by charter, or under the Stannaries juri-diction, are to associate as a company, except in confor mit y there wi.h. A memorandum of association is to be lodged with the registrar of joint-stock companies, giving the name and objects of the company, the mode of liability, whether limited or unlimited, its capital and number of shares, with the total taken by each subscriter. It may also contain regulations inserted for the management of the undertaking, and, if these are omitted, the 0 mipany are to be bound by a certain set of regulations inserted in a schedule of the act. Each company is to keep a register of shareholders, to be coupled with an annual summary of its position as regards capital, the calls made, and the amounts of calls paid and overdue. The list of share holders is to be open to the inspection of shareholders gratuitously, and to other persons on payment of is. Special resolutions may be passed by three-fourths in number and value of the shareholders, and copies of such resolutions are to be forwarded to the registrar within 15 days. Up on the •application of one-fifth in ilum'oer and value of the shareholders in any company the Board of Trade may appoint an inspector to examine and report on its affairs, er the shareholders in general meeting may appoint inspectors of their own, the officers of the company being bound under penalties to produce all books and documents. The liability of shareholders is to continue in unlimited companies far three years after they may have transferred their shames, and in limited companies for one year for any amount of their shares remaining unpaid. A company may be wound up upon a resolution to that effect in genera meeting, or whenever it suspends its business for the space of a year, whenever the number of shareholders is reduced below seven, whenever it is unable to pay . its debts, or whenever it has lost three-fourths of its capo al Any company neglecting for three weeks to meet it a clam. exceeding 50/. is to be deemed unable to pay , s , debts. The Court may appoint "official liquidators to de everything necessary fur winding up. ... em .._ -"„ , ~.- ..• } a 4.4>i'f'' .f , . ~/'. : .... e . , ' - 1 . 44164 . 061fre......... ) • W t ~,,....7 4' 4 % ''' / .." • 1/P 7 e 1 7,0 4 ..." . , t • / 1: / / ‘ ,< , O C . . . .7": ..

Mr. - Poland prosecuted, and Mr. Horry appeared fer the prisobers. The prosecutor, a coal merchant at Hackney, was one of the trustees of a chapel there, in which capacity be had charge of the communion cups. The prisoner Reed was the pew-opener of the chapel, and as such had access to where the.'cups were kept, and on the Ist of March four were missed. From information reosived, a polioe-con. stable went to the head-quarters of the militia at Hemp stead_and took Marsh into custody. When the constable told hint that he was charged with being concerned in stealing communion cups from Hackney, he said he ht 4 been led into it, and inquired what punishment was pro. babie to f How. It appeared that one cf the cups, Bat. tencd, was purchased by a watch mak e r, named England, in Britannia-street, Gray's-inn-road, as old silver, foe .11. 15s. 7d of a young man whom he had not since seen, and he took it to Benham's, formerly Sirrell's," in B .rbican, but Mr. Benham declined to purchase it, as he was satisfied in his own mind that it had not been ho nestly-Come by. England t3ok it home, melted itdown, and then sold it at Benham's for 1/. 17s. 9d. The prison ers made eta ements implicating each other in the theft. The jury found them guilty, and a former conviction was proved against Marih. The Assistant Judge said it would be as well if Mr. England were more cautious for the future in buying silver articles in the way be had this cup, which bad evi dently been battered up for tbe purpose of destroying its identity. Had he used but ordinary observation, he would have come to the same conclusion as Mr. Benham that a sacramental chalice 83 broken up was in all pro. bability the proceeds of a robbery. Were it not that such facility was ail-riled for the disposal of stolen pro perty, the inducement to steal would be greatly the less, and he would repeat his caution to Mr. England in this case.

The Evening Yost publishes the' following im portant communication received this day from Galway Foundry and Ironworks, Merchant-road, and New Docks : " Galway, April 7. - " Sir,—l beg to acquaint you that her Majesty's steamer Tartar, 24 guns, which bad been sent by Government on the 29th ult. in search of the ill fated steamer Pacific, arrive& here last evening without obtaining any information of the missing ship, although the Tartar proceeded as far as 25 deg. west and about 55 deg. north latitude. " On the 29th ult. she met the American ship Joseph Badger in great distress with four feet of water in the hold, bound to London from Calcutta, and supplied her with provisions and an officer and eight men to assist in navigating her, as all hands were quite exhausted pumping. She met two other ships, but got no information. The Tartar, being one of the fastest screw propellers in her Majesty's navy, having Made all speed to the 'nearest point on the west coast of Ireland, to communicate with the Lords of the Admiralty, is another proof that Galway stands predominantly 'before any other port for the transmission of the mails to America. _ ‘.‘ I remain, Sir, " Your most obedient servant, " JAMES STEPHENS.

The Assistant-Judge—You are a man of respecta'lle appearance ; but notwithttaucling that,Mr.-Benharn re. fused to buy the bap of you, under the circumstances. Y.,u then melt it down and sell it in the lamp. It is to be hoped that you will not incur the risk of such conduct again. The foreman of the jury said they wished to express their concurrence in the observations which his lordship hal addressed to the witness. "MONDAY EVENING, '6 o'CEocK.—A second war steamer has just anchored close to the Tartar. The Desperate was the second sent in search of the Pacific." Martl was sentenced to four years' penal servitude ; Reed to one year's bard labour. As he was being removed, Marsh said, "Thank you, my lord ; I hope that four years will sake a man of use; but I'm not innocent of this—Oh, I beg pardon, I mean I'm not guilty this time." (A. laugh.) FURTHER FORGERIES BY JOHN SADLEIR. The subjoined important statement also appears in the Evening Post : "Yesterday afternoon a London solicitor ap peared in the Registry-office with a carpet bag containing a number of deeds, in order that it should be ascertained whether they had been re gistered in accordance with certificates of registry which he produced. The deeds purported to be conveyances of the estates sold in the Encumbered Estates Court to John Sadleir and the certificates of registry, which were numbered, mentioned books in which the memorials of the deeds were entered. One of the certificates, dated in 1852, bore the signature of the late Mr. Walter Glas cock, who died before the establishment of the Encumbered Estates Court. The other certificates purported to be in the handwriting of Mr. Chap man, First Assistant-Registrar, and to be signed by that gentleman. On examination by Mr. Morgan O'Connell, Principal of the Registry-office, and his assistants, it was found that no such books were in existence, and that all the deeds but one, and the entire of the certificates, were forgeries. The deeds of con. veyauce, five iu number (some of which contained maps of the properties), bore the signatures of two of the commissioners—Dr. -Longfield and Mr. Hargreave. Tme forgery of the signature of Mr. Chapman was exceedingly well executed. " The deed that was not forged had been origi nally a conveyance of a small property purchased for 20001., but the amount was changed to 5,000/. ; the total amount of the consideration money on the five conveyances was 44,000/. ; the sum lent upon those securities was 16,0001. ; the lenders, of course, have been defrauded, like so many others in the gigantic and unprecedented swindles per petrated by John Sadleir."

The nuinbbr of deaths registered in London in the week that ended on Saturday was 1,284. In the 10 cor-: responding weeks of the years 1846 55 the average num ber was 1,166, which, if - raised' by a tenth part for in crease of population, becomes equal to the number actually registered last week. • Phtbisis (or consumption) carried off a greater number of persono than any other disease ; it was fatal in 152 cases, bronchitis in 135, pneumonia in 112, typhus and common fever in 61, hooping-cough in 43, scarlatina in 56, inea;alea in 23, diarrhoea 16, small-pox in 15. A Chelsea pensioner died at the . age of 93 years, and the widow of a shoemaker at the age of 96 years. Last week the births of 943 boys and 925 girls, in all 1,868 children, were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1846 55, the average number was 1,513. At theßoyalObservatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 2.776 in. The highest reading was 30'14 in. on Sunday (Match 30). Tile mean temperature of the week was 46.4 deg., which is 2.6 deg. above the average of the same week in 38 years (as de terrained by Mr. Glaisher). The lowest temperature oc curred on Monday, and was 241 deg. ; the wind veered towards the south, and the highest was 60 8 deg., and occurred on the following day: The mean dew-point temperature was 35'8 deg., and the difference between this and the menu temperature of the air was 10 . 6 deg. The temperature of the water of-the Thames rose to 49 5 deg. on Saturday, the lowest on that day was 46 . 5 deg., the mean of the week was 45 5 deg. The wind blew • mostly him-4W- iiiiirtb--east .outrthe mouth-west. - The . thin as measured was Only .09 in. - TC-Ithit quarter which has just terminated, comprising January, February, and March, the public health was better than the population of London usually enjoy in -that-period of the year. The teliqierature of the air wa•• generally high during the first nine weeks. The mean temperature of the quarter was 40'1 deg.,_ and that of the seventh week was 47 deg., or B'4 deg. above the average. The total number of deaths in the three months was 14,533, which is little more than t' at of the same quarter in' 1852, 'when the population was not so great ' • it.is also less than the numbers in 1853 and 1854, an d much less than the number in 1855, which rose to 19,62.7. - The mean temperature of the quarter that has now passed was 6 deg. higher than that of the corre sponding quarter in 1855, and it is probable that to this circumstance is chiefly due a d,ff Tence in the number of the deaths to the extent of more than 5,000. In comparing the rsults in the tables of fatal diseases of winter quarters of 1855 and 1856, it is found that the deaths from zyrnotic diseases were respectively 3,856 and 2,897 ; from tubercular diseases (mending phthisis) 2,946 and 2,307 ; from di,eaies of the re-Tiratory organs 4,850 and 2,883 ; and in like manner there is a decrease for the present year under other heads, except those which are comparatively unimportant in point of num ja.r.o.-- In all the principal diseases of the zysantio class the firit quarter of this year shows a decided decrease, except in typhus, the deaths from which rose from 572 to 719. Typhus has ben rather pre valenP, especially in the east di%ision of London, where the 'deaths from it in the last three months were 212. Of the 14,533 per,ons woo died last quarter, 3,073 ends t their days in public institutions, beir , (, in the proportion of more than one in five ; 1,817 ' died in 45 workhouses, 1,065 in hospitals for tie sick, 88 in unatic asylums, 11 in prisons, the remainder in asy ums for soldiers, sailors, and foreigners.

'PRE Inieu CONSTAI3MARY. -- We have been informed thret the Lord-Lieutenant has decided upon the esta bl;.ehment of libraries for the benefit of the constabulary force in Ireland. It has been stated, indeed,: that a latter to this effect from Dub'iii Castle has been received p,t the stations.—Dublin &matt, Maid. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-April 8. BOW-STREET.—The Rev.". O. Ward, a clergyman of• the Church of England, attended for the third time before Mr. Henry, to answer the charge of being a wan dering lunatic, and of writing letters to the Queen and different members of her Majesty's Government. Mr. Henry informed him that a letter bad been re ceived from Mr. Greenwood, of the Treasury, L.) the effect that no further proceedings would be taken in the case on behalf of the Crown. This, he believed, was the result of a private arrangement , with the friends of the defendant. • The warrant was then dismissed, NV ESTMINSTE R.—A STRANGE Amts.- Ann W il• son, a prostitute of the lowest grade, was charged with wiltul and cJirupt perjury. The procfedings arose out of the trial and conviction of George Brown,. a young man very respectably con nected, who was charged, in January last, with assaulting the defendant, and committed for six months to bard labour in the House of Correction, from which, be was brought to this court upon a judae's order, to exhibit the present complaint, after an ineffectual application to the Secretary of State, representing that he had bees the victim of perjury. The offence having been proved Mr. Arnold com mitted the accused for trial. CLERKENWELL.—CAPTINIE OF ONE OP THE ESCAPED CONVICTS FROM THE NEW MODEL PRISON. —Henry Mitchell, aged 23, a short, thick-set, powerful. looking fellow, described in the police-sheet as a brick layer, of No. 4, Brill-row, Somers-town, was placed at the bar before Mr. Currie, charged with being an es caped convict, and illegally at large, before the expira tion of his term of imprisonment. It will be remembered that the prisoner made his es cape in company with another convict, a shoemaker, rained Henry Simpson, from the New Model Prison, about three or four weeks since. The prisoners' escape caused a great deal of excitement, it being alin , :st unpa ralleled, and beyond all previous prison breaking. It appears that the two prisoners had been for some time isicsrceiated in the gaol, Simpson—who is described as a labourer, 21 years of age, 5 feet 5 inches high, fresh complexion, brown ba'r, hazel eyes, and stoutly made— ' having been convicted on the 26th of November last, at the Cmtral Criminal Court, of burgltry, and sentenced to 14 years' traesportation, having been before convicted of feleny in Surrey, and sentenced to 10 years' transpor tation, while the prisoner Mitchell, who was convicted at the same sessions for a like offence, was sentenced to four years' penal servitude. They were two daring elm racters, and one, it was stated at the time, was a rela tive of the notorious Hackett, who escaped from the same place several years since. When the prisoners were in Horsernonger-lane Gaol, a female was apprehended and convicted for conveying to them a file and other ar ticles necessary for the picking of locks, inside of a half quartern loaf, and the prison authorities were told to keep a sharp look on them. On the night of thel9th of March they were safely locked up in their cell, and to get out they had to pick one of the patent locks which fas tened the cell door. On the following morning an alarm was raised, and, on subsequent search being made, it seems that the prisoners walked along the passage, where they found an iron trap door, weighing three hun dred weight, which they must have forced up, and got upon the roof of a low building, having picked several locks on their way. From thence they scaled a lofty wall, by the aid of a ladder made of wax-ends, which brought them to the roof of the prison ; for they de scended and ascended at least six times before they could have reached the outside of the gaol. Tars matter was placed in the hands of Sergeant Whicher, of the detec tive force, and he, after watching for some time, suc ceeded, after great difficulty, in apprehending the pri soner. Mitchell stated that after he and his companion escaped, they walked in their prison dress as far as Cam berwell, passing several of the metropolitan police, be tore they entered any house, thus showing the necessity of the police being made aware of the different styles of dress worn by the different prisoners. He also stated that, in making their escape, they once or twice ran great risk of losing their lives. The prisoner, who had nothing to say in his defence, was remanded for a week. SOUTHWARK CONVICTION OT A COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER FOR ASSAULTING HIS WIFE.—A. gentle. manly-looking and well-dressed young man, named William Thompson, described in the charge-sheet as a commercial traveller, residing at No. 8, Inman's•build ings, Wellington-street, Southwark, was brought befall Mr. Combe, charged with committing a violent assault on Harriet Ann Thompson, his wife. The complainant, a very respectable female, who ex hibited a cut on the nose, with some reluctance gave the following evidence :—She stated, in a low voice, that she had been married to the prisoner about two years, and that he was a commercial traveller, but recently had done nothing, but was supported by h e r, out of an excellent business, which she carried on without his assistance. On the prev i ous night, about eleven o'clock, he went to bed, and believing him to be unwell, the asked him whether she should prepare him something n ice for supper. He replied that he should like some tea and ham and eggs. She accord ingly provided these things for him, and carried them to his bedside, when he jumped out of bed, and threw them down the stairs. She was exceedingly frightened at his conduct, and ran away from him, but he pursued her, and struck her several times on the face, inflicting the wound on her nose. Mr. Combe asked her whether that was done with any instrument ? tah:‘statishenuese, and, on a o used n nothing but c i cries brought e rle)lid t g ab fist le llr entering e the house, she gave him into custody. Cenehe—Were you quite sober at the time ? ituess replied that she was, and she never drank anything intoxicating. Her husband know that to be a feet - . The prisoner, who during the examination covered his face with his handkerchief, here exclaimed that his head was very bad when he went to bed, and he slid not waut to be troubled. His wife came up and teased him. She also struck him in the face, causing blood to flow. The complainant positively denied his assertions. was continually in the habit of ill-using her, although. she provided him with every comfort. She had several times obtained summonses against him at that court, but she never attended before to support her complaint,. Ever since they had been married her husband had done no work, but he lived entirely upon her labo9r. She had actually been in the habit of supplying him with his meals in bed, and in return he knoc ked and kicked her about dreadfully. The prisoner, in a violent manner, said that his wif e struck him, and he showed her the blood, when he meetly gave her a push. The wife, bunting into tears, said she neve r touched him. In fact, he took up the knife and fo r k and threatened to run me through, but I pushed them away. Mr. Combo asked her what he said to her at that time Witness replied, that he called her a --, and said "I'll do for you. ' Mr. Combo said that was quite enough. There could be no doubt he was a brutal lazy fellow, and he should commit him to the House cf Correction for three months, w"th bard labour, and at the expiration of that term of itnprisontuout he must find two sureties to keep the pence for six months, or remain in gaol. The prisoner, who was with some difficulty removed by the gaoler, hoped his worship would not commit him to prison, as it would be the death of him. He implored his wife to with!raw the charge, promising never to ill use le r again. Mr. Cawbe told him that the sentence was passed on him, and it was lenient c.anpared with his brutal con duct, towards his wife, who, fortunately, could do better without him. 943 925 .. ~ „_ MR.
