Of all the Returns that load the tables of public men, and ultimately " wrap up" sugar and tea, none are so popular as the Decennial Census. As a race we assign a high place to the command to increase and multiply and replenish the earth. We consider it our vocation to people the wilderness. Then, how rapidly does Time take with us elders this gigantic stride from 1851 to 1861! In how many respects is this year different from that, and this decennial period from that which preceded it ! During the last ten years we, who were told to expect the Millenium, have had two great wars, which, though distant, drained our armies, and spent in the work of death what would otherwise have gone to the common stock of peace and plenty at home. We have had an unexamplediemigration, and vast cities have risen up in the antipodes, peopled by men and women who would other wise have pressed on the common resources of home. How does all this work ? Then we look around, and see in France the phenomenon of a population which hardly increases, and which allows itself to be as muc h a ttach e d to the soil as our Saxon " villeins," or the serfs recently eman cipated by Russia. The United States, which but the other day all confidently expected to reach a hundred millions in half a century more, have sud denly broken up, and are now preparing to show by mutual extermination how it was the human race was so many ages at a standstill. So, how are we doing, and what addition have we made to our family ? The greatest fact of the Census is that the population of England and Wales is not 1 increasing quite so fast as it hat dolle—in fact, that the ratio of increase is steadily decreasing. This does not signify very much, nor is the fact one to be alarmed at. An increase at home of only 2,176,576 is not one to be ashamed of, for it is about 150,000 more than the increase in the preceding period ; but, as the population is much greater, the increase ought to have been more, and no doubt would have been but for the causes alluded to. The decrease in the ratio of increase is curiously uniform. In that marvellous decennial period between 1811 and 1821, which included the general peace, the re turn of our armies and navies, the remission of war taxes, and what may be called the revival of the arts and sciences, the increase was 16 n_ r cent. In the successive periods, down to that ending last Easter-day, the increases have been respectively 15, 14, 13, and 12 per cent. The above ratios of in crease are easy to remember ; so also, for the pre sent, is the fact that the population of England and Wales and the smaller islands is, in round numbers, 20 20,205,504; the fact that, inclu sive of army, navy, and merchant seamen abroad, the population of England and Wales, without the smaller isles, is 20,223,746; the fact that the popu lation has more than doubled since we were pre paring against an invasion in 1801 ; and the fact that the number of the inhabited houses, which nearly doubled in the first 40 years of the century, is now 3,745,463, against 1,575,923 in 1801. The most curious results of the Census are those which can only be thoroughly appreciated by the residents in the counties and towns ; but they will often surprise. Taking the counties alphabetically, we may venture to ask why Bedfordshire, with a population of 135,265, should have increased by 10,787, when Perks, with 176,103 has only increased 6,050 ? Is it that the one is less attractive, or that there is more of that freedom, enterprise, and per sonal ability which prompt the young and strong, to seek their fortunes elsewhere? That Bucking hamshire, with nearly as large a population, should only have increased by 2,874, and that Cambridge shire, with a population as large, should exhibit a decrease of 9,455, is very intelligible. Cheshire shares the fortunes of its neighbour across the Mersey, and its increase of 49,428 in about half-a million brings it up very nearly to the general rate of English increase. Cornwall, in spite of its mines, has only increased 13,765 in a population of 369,323. Cumberland seems to exhibit the usual moderate increase of a thriving agricultural county which is about half the general ratio of increase for ail England. Derbyshire rises above the general average, its increase being 43,293 in a population of 339,377. Devonshire, with a population nearly twice as large, hasincreased not half as much—viz., 17,433. Poor Dorset has not done so much amiss, having actually made 4,444 in a population of 188,651. Durham is the first county in the list where we come to one of those grand figures which swell the result. lead countervail against the lower rates we have hitherto been dealing with. On its population of 509,018 the increase is 118,021, which is more than twice the average rate, and itself the population of a small county. Coal, it is evident, is the flame of life in this country, the vestal fire which burns for ages, and the luminary at whose exhaustion it may be truly said that "England's sun has set for ever." Essex :has a good neighbour in the metropolis, and rises nearly to the average rate of increase. Gloucestershire does not find the Severn so prolific as the Thames, for its ratio of increase is only about half the average rate. llerefordshire has done pretty well as an agricultural county ; Herts not so well, and Huntingdonshire, the first small county in this list, has almost stood still. In Kent, amain, we come within the metropolitan influence. Smoke and dirt breed fast, and whatever shortens life, in this country at least, is sure to create " masses." In a population of 733.675 the increase is 117,909—n0t Quite so much as in Durham, with two-thirds of tlie population. Lancashire is the leviathan which has evidently absorbed the natural increase of many smaller co un tiee. In a population of 2,428,744 the i ncrease i s there 397,50 8 , — a popu lation nearly as large as that of Essex or Lincoln, notwithstandingand larger than that of itsi Cornwall. anufa o,tur L i n g eit towns, c ese r s s e h e i m r e s , here to take rank with the slowly-increasing agri cultural counties, its increase being only 7,094 in fis 2 t 3 gi 7, lul r,ei o .t 2. s Middlesex increase Li ncol n b , he iawithbeing g increased, n aboutrlela,9s e 9 da 7 : s a os one ea hundredthl might almost h t stood otf ht havaet expected, though not quite so much in proportien as Durham or Lancashire.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT ON A RAILWAY.—The tramroad between Carnarvon and the Nantile slate quar ries is also employed for the conveyance of passengers, the carriages being drawn by horses. On Tuesday, as the train leaving Nantile at 11 5 a.m. was &bout two miles from Car narvon, drawn by two horses, the first carriage got off the rail at a sharp turning, which was also, unfortunately, at the top of an embankment ten yards high; the whole train was precipitated down the declivity, dragging the pair of horses after it. Unhappily, Mre. Rowlands, the wife of Mr. Richard Rowlands, Bank Quay, Carnarvon, was found dead among the debris. Another lady had her arm frac tured, and one or two others were slightly injizred. FAIHER DALY AND LORD PALMER STON. Father Daly is at home again, and is crowing lustily. At a meeting in Galway on Monday he gave a funny account of his interview with Lord Palmer ston, which scarcely admits of abridgment : " At a meeting of the trades of Galway this day the Rev. Mr. Daly gave an account of his mission to London on the subject of the packet station. In reference to his interview with Lord Palmerston the rev. gentleman said he went with a written let ter in his hand to the residence of the Premier of England, was admitted, and inquired for his lord ship, as he expected he would be at home, having official advice of his intended visit. But, to tell the truth, and not to draw any conclusion, the servants in the hall told him that his lordship had gone out. He expressed his surprise, and left a letter for his lordship in these terms The Rev. Peter Daly presents his respects to Lord Palmerston, and re quests an interview of five minutea with his lord ship upon the question of the Galway contract.' He left that letter with his visiting card, and said, as his lordship was not then at home, he would call again. To shorten details, he did call again, and before he did he went to see Mr. Gregory, who advised him to call again. He accordingly called at 2 o'clock, inquired for his lordship, and received the same answer, that he had not returned. "That was perfectly true; but the reason was, his lord ship had not gone out at all. (Laughter.) He (Father Daly) expressed his doubts that his lordship was out, and told the servant that it was very possible he would call again. (Cheers.) He did call again, at 5 o'clock, and saw his lordship's horse saddled at the door, and was admitted at the very moment that his lordship was very anxious to take an airing, because it was very long for an elderly gentleman of his kind to be closeted up to that hour of the day. (Laughter and cheers.) Lord Palmerston received him very courteously, shook hands with him, and said,—' How do you do, Mr. Daly ?' and considering his courtesy, he thought he mig ht belon very familiar terms with his lordship. He (Father Daly) said he had been there at 1 o'clock, and that he understood from Mr. Brand, Secretary of the Treasury, that his lordship should meet him, but he was told he was out. His lordship said, I have not been out all day." His reply was, Well, my lord, it is not my Ault to detain you now from your ride, for your servants told me you were out. ' Well,' said he, I was not out all day. So I thought, my lord,' said I—(loud laughter)—but I could not intrude myself on your servants ; how ever, I have come, trusting you will give me a short interview on the subject of the Galway packet sta tion and the subsidy. I come here at the request of the people of Galway, and I hope you will tell me if it is the intention of your Ministry to abide by the letter of the Postmaster-Gmeral, annulling the contract that was honourably entered into be tween Ireland and the Government of England.' Oh,' said he, your company have broken the con tract.' My lord,' I said—and I said the truth, and the Irish members afterwards admitted I said the truth—' I don't advocate the company—l don't come here to defend their acts or deeds, I am not at all disposed to be their advocate, or to hide their mismanagement ; there is no person more sensible of their demerits than I am, but the ques tion is not between the Atlantic Company and the Government you preside over, but between Ireland and the Government of England. It is to that alone I direct myself, and I don't speak on behalf of any company or any private individual, although I deplore that if this step is persevered in by the English Ministry, it will be the ruin of thousands of poor people who, from a feeling of patriotism and love of country, put the whole savings of their lives into the company.' 'Well,' said he, ' the act of the Postmaster-General is the act of the Government, and we do not dissever ourselves from the Post master-General." Well,' said I, would you say that it is the intention of the Government to perse vere in that resolution?' Oh,' said he, ' why do you ask me that question ?' I answered Because, my lord, I mean to bring a deputation of Irish members, and as many more as I can collect, to pre sent the memorial from the people of Galway, and to represent the wishes of Ireland." Are you the ambassador of Ireland ?' said he. (Laughter.) Undoubtedly he said that with a very benignant smile, and I endeavoured to return the smile with my own ugly grimace. (Laughter.) But,' I said, with the humility that ought to become a priest, I would not assume the position of ambassador from Ireland, but I tell you candidly I speak the mind of Ireland. (Cheers.) May I then hope, my lord, you will receive the deputation on Monday on this subject with me ?" Why Monday ?' said he. ' Oh,' said I, I would not have time to-day or to morrow to make up the deputation, for many of the Irish members are not yet come over.' But,' said my lord, would not any other day after Monday be as good ? There is a very serious question to come on Monday ; why do you choose that day ?' ' Oh,' my lord,' I replied, it is precisely on that account I choose Monday.' (Cheers.) The truth was that on this occasion the trial of Irish interests was to be settled and determined. (Hear.) By that I meant no unconstitutional pressure on the Minis try, but I meant that the Irish members should act, or, as the term now is, take action' for the benefit of the country, and when Lord Palmerston asked what course of action' they would take, I said, I am not prepared to tell you what course of action they will take, because they are not come from Ire land in sufl•'icient number ; but I will tell you what I think they ought to do, and what their course of action ought to be—to secure the interests of their own country before those of any other. (Loud and prolonged cheering.) Father Daly then reviewed his exertions to get together a phalanx' of mem bers ; 75 Irish members, he said, stuck together like a wall, and made the Ministers of England shake and totter on their benches. Some people had said Father Daly had a fight with Lord Palmerston. Now, that was a falsehood, for they closed their in terview as they began it—with a shake of the hand. (Cheers.) Lord Palmerston had thought fit to make their private conversation public. He (Father Daly) would do the same. Lord Palmerston said, I think it is desirable there should be quick communication established between the west coast of Ireland and America, and I think Galway is that point. (Cheers.) His conversation with Lord Pal merston had created a vast deal of jocularity, and an immensity of interest in the public mind of Eng land, but in reality it was of more interest that at first might appear. It was made by Lord Palmer ston himself a matter of political advantage to his party, for it must have been Lord Palmerston who informed Lord J. Russell that there was an attempt by Father Daly to coerce the Ministry of England. However, he (Father Daly) was there to proclaim that Lord Palmerston's account was a perversion and a wilful misrepresentation of the conversation that took place between them. The best proof of it was that in reference to it Lord Brougham sug gested that he should he summoned to the bar of the House of Lords, and on reading his lordship's speech he (Father Daly) at once wrote a letter to his lordship, requesting that he might be sum moned to the bars of both Houses of Parliament, when he would prove that the sense given to the conversation by Lord Palmerston was untrue, un founded, and groundless. Father Daly passed a high eulogium ot, the members for the town and county of Galway for their exertions in the cause of the packet station, and concluded by calling on all to unite for the great object they had in view."

SAVAGE. This was an action for the unlawful conversion of a diamond ring, valued at £l,OOO, the property of the plaintiff. The defendant pleaded that it was not the plaintiff's property. Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., and Mr. Griffiths were counsel for the plaintiff; Mr. Sergeant Petersdorff and Mr. Honeyman were counsel for the defendant. Mr. Huddleston, in stating the case to the jury, said the plaintiff is a chemist and druggist, carry ing on business at 23, Leicester-square, and he sought to recover, on the part of a lady named Minnie Holmes and himself, a valuable diamond ring which Minnie Holmes had pawned with Messes. Attenborough, the pawn ticket of which the plaintiff had purchased of her. The question was whether the ring in question had been given to Minnie Holmes under the following circum stances :—The plaintiff is the nephew of a distin guished nobleman, but what he had been doing during the course of his life, except travelling abroad, he (the learned counsel) scarcely knew. The defendant was possessed of considerable pro perty, and had cohabited with Minnie Holmes for some years. It would appear that in the early part of this year Minnie Holmes was staying in Paris with the defendant, when a separation. took place. She came to England, and being in want of money she pawned the ring for £lO. Subsequently she wished to raise m ore m one y, a n d s h e a ppli e d to the plaintiff, who advanced her money on the pawn ticket, and w h en h e went to re d eem i t, he was met with the suggestion that the ring had been stolen from the defenda n t. U pon t h at h e b roug h t hi s action against Mr. Attenb oroug h, an d on an appli cation to a judge at chambers, Mr. Savage was sub stituted for Mr.Attenborough as the defendant, and the question the jury would have to decide was, whether or not the ring was given by the defendant to Minnie Holmes. The connexion between the defendant and Minnie Holmes was of a peculiar character, and had lasted about ten years. She had been a professed cook in the family of the defen dant's uncle, where he became enamoured of her, and seduced her, and after that she went to live with him. The defendant appeared to be very fond of her, though at times, from excitement, he acted rather cruelly towards her, and on one occasion he severely wounded her in the wrist. In March last they were residing in Paris. He had illused her very much, and she had left him, at which he ap peared to be very much annoyed. He discovered that she had gone to the Café de Globe, she being acquainted with the female who kept it. He went there, and as he anticipated, found Minnie there. Minnie had for ten years passed as his wife, and was known everywhere as Madame Savage. He begged and implored her to return and live with him, pro mising to amend his conduct towards her. He professed the most ardent love and affection for her, and :having on his finger this most valuable and handsome ring, he took it off, and in addition to his other protestations, said "I'll give you this. You look much better in diamonds than I do. Now come, forgive all that is past." She returned home with him, and at the end of two days he repeated his violent conduct towards her, upon which she left him and came to England, and being in want of money she went :to ;Messrs. Lambert and Raw lings, jewellers, Conduit-street, who had sold the ring for £l,OOO to Mr. Savage, with the view of selling it, informing them that she had had it from Mr. Savage,the defendant. They were disinclined to purchase it, and recommended her to Messrs. At tenborough, of Piccadilly, who would only ad vance a temporary loan of £lO, after having first communicated with Messrs. Lambert and Rawlings. Messrs. Attenborough afterwards communicated with the defendant, who replied that the ring had been stolen, and in consequence they declined to part with it. Under these circumstances the action had been brought. Since the action had been brought the defendant had found out Minnie Holmes, and had slept with her on several occa sions, and upon one occasion the defendant, actuated by one of those extraordinary fits of eccentricity to which he was addicted, gave her in charge for steal ing a ruby ring. She was taken from the coffee house where they were staying, in the middle of the night, to the police-station. The charge was made by the defendant, and after hearing the cir cumstances the inspector refused to detain her. On that the defendant said, "I give her in charge for stealing the diamond ring" (the ring in question). The inspector investigated the charge, and Minnie said the defendant had given her the ring in Paris, and on the inspector asking the meaning of it the defendant said, " Well, I believe I did give her the ring." The consequence was that the inspector declined to take her in custody: Minnie was allowed to go at large. It was under these circumstances that the present action was brought, and he hoped the jury would protect this young woman by re turning a verdict in her favour. The learned counsel having addressed the jury for their respective clients, The learned judge summed up. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for £l,OOO, to be reduced to the nominal amount of his claim. ADMIRAL CRAWIE ON THE NAVY. At the annual dinner of the Bath and West of England Agricultural Exhibition at Truro, on Thursday, the 6th inst., the president having pro posed the toast of " The Army, Navy, and Volun teers," Admiral Craigie, in returning thanks for the navy, said—lt is believed in some places that our naval preparations are not what they ought to be—it is thought that we do not take the lead by adopting the most recent improvements—that we are content to follow in the wake of other nations ; but there are weighty reasons which may account for this apparent inaction. Although the science of naval architecture has made prodigious progress within the last 20 or 30 years, yet it has not reached that state of perfection which will enable the most scientific builder to calculate with any certainty the effect of the slightest alteration in the form of a ship. If, for instance, you want a ship to carry a certain armament; to attain a certain speed, to carry a certain complement of men, and a proportion of provisions, these points may be attained, but if we require these in combination with others equally valuable, the chances are that you fail in some one or other. As an instance, those two ships (Warrior and Black Prince) to which the chairman has alluded, which are considered, and justly considered, the finest ships in the world ; these ships have been constructed on the most scientific principles— they have been built by two of the first firms in the kingdom—l may say by two of the first firms in the world. These ships have now been launched, and they had scarcely been afloat when it was believed by many men of science that they might have been vastly improved if, instead of having what sailors call a wall-sided ship, they had had a curve to their outward forms. It is not to be supposed that these eminent shipbuilders were ignorant of the fact that a curve would resist a shot better than a flat surface ; but I presume they took into consideration that by adopting a curve they might sacrifice some even more impor tant object, Well, gentlemen, if aft er a ll th ese considerations, if, after all this care in the building of these two magnificent ships at a cost, it is said, of one million sterling—if they should have com mitted a mistake of this kind, would it be prudent, would it be right, in any Government (I care not who they may be) to adopt rashly and hastily every new project which floats before them ? It would not be wise in this country to allow our neighbours to get too far ahead of us; but on the other hand, with the abundant resources we possess, with the inexhaustible resources of our shipbuilders' yards, we can afford to " lay upon our oars," and wait with patience the result of such costly experi ments, and not adopt rashly and recklessly every new idea, which may be only an imaginary im provement. EXTENSIVE FORGERIES BY AN INSU.RANCE AGENT; Yesterday a case of a most extraordinary descrip tion was investigated before the magistrates at the Manchester City Police-court, and no doubt it will excite as much surprise as sorrow amongst the public when they learn that a gentleman of hitherto supposed unblemished character, Mr. Edward Williamson, agent for the Royal Exchange Fire and Life Insurance Office, will be charged with having committed a series of forgeries to a large amount. From what we have been able to glean from various sources, it appears that Mr. Willia mson will be charged with having obtained money from the principal Office, in London by representing, through forged documents, that losses had been caused by fire on the premises of persons insured in the office, when in point of fact no such fires had taken place. He will also be charged with having increased the amount of bone fide claims made by insurers who had incurred losses by fire, and he will be charged with forging signatures endorsed on bills which he had been ordered to draw to pay some of the fictitious claims which he had made. We believe we shall be found pretty correct in stating that the amount which the Royal Exchange Office has been _ pfc d be rly e raaei f t n r tsem a ehdn fnuset has present to chaomttsfaoevtbrnh o seeeeaa u es baytnt t re ; aof been xcanb cr3ui b rm,dtio y this within eeawodndoeteo.H the. and n system d last paid fourodu will be v by yt he monthsoffiercy e fictitioustlargeo te on of noAof o w w long s course f etwh atd this iwt yews aaarsge ods unable nse gentle man man from Manchester, whilst i n London, calbleveni of fraud the Royal Exchange-office to ask the directors to appoint a friend of his a second agent for Manches ter, alleging that all the other offices had two agents, whilst the Royal Exchange had only one in Manchester. The manager, or one of the direc tors, replied that they should do no such thing, see -' that with one agency fires so often occurred in that city. At the same time, he pointed to claims then lying before him from Mr. Williamson for something like £7OO, in corroboration of what he had stated. The gentleman expressed his astonish ment at what had been stated, looked at the claims, and declared, from his own knowledge, that those fires had never taken place. The manager was equally take hnae had bac u k, nbo an dcuonded n uld n o c t o fi dn believeec confidence in e i‘ a i r r. s, inasmuch as Williamson, whose father had been the agent in Manchester for 45 years. The son, Edward Wil liamson, was partner with his father some years be fore his decease, and we believe the agency had been in the hands of the father and son for the last 60 years. In consequence of what transpired in the in terview we have alluded to, one of the directors of the Royal Exchange-office, and the solicitor to the company went to Manchester, on Tuesday, to investi , gate the matter, and in the course of a short time they obtained such information as to satisfy them that the statement made to them in London was but too true. Yesterday a warrant was applied for and granted for Mr. Williamson's apprehension on the charge of forgery. The warrant, we believe, was placed in the hands of Superintendent Maybury and Inspector Buckley for execution, and yesterday they proceeded to Greenfield House, Bowden, where Mr. Williamson resides, to apprehend him. At first they did not find him at home, but at five o'clock, on returning, they found him in. The officers showed him the warrant, and told him the charge upon which he was to be arrested, to which he replied that he was very sorry that it was so; that he had been a great fool, and it served him right; but that he had property that would five times cover the amount he was charged with hav ing dishonestly obtained. Mr. Williamson was then taken into custody, and brought in a cab to the detective office, Manchester. Besides being the owner of considerable property at Bowden, Mr. Williamson has a shooting-seat near Stafford, where Mrs. Williamson and her family are at present staying. Owing to this fact the family sere spared the pain of seeing Mr. Williamson appre hended, and there can be no doubt but that the affliction which has overtaken them will awaken that sympathy on their behalf which is but a poor consolation in such circumstances as those in which they are placed. THE BUILDERS' STRIKE . The masons' commit tee yesterday reported that another employer, in addition to those previ ous l y announced, the men —Mr. C ra bb , of Gravel-lane, THE NIGHTINGALE SLAVE-SHIP.—We have made full inquiries and find that the ship Nightingale, of Boston, U.S.A., 810 tons, co mman d e d b y her owner, Frederick Bowen, arrived at Liverpool from New York on the 6th of October last. On the 24th of November she cleared out for St. Thomas, West Indies, and on the 18t of December sailed from the Mersey with the following cargo, which is valued at £l,27o—viz., 1 7 bales and 25 cases of cotton go ods 135 b un dles of shooks, 6 casks of hoops, 300 b oxes• o f herrings, 2 0 ca sks of thread, 14 casks of rice, 25 barrels of beans, 400 h barrels of gunpowder, ot r, c 4O t c e a n g ses e , o 9 d 2 e b , d a e l n es, 13teeeks,an and d3 d l so p o u ttre e r .e l o of earthenware, ehen hardware; 12 sheets of iron, two small iron guns, and two small swivel -guns. Of course the clearance for St. Thomas was a russ to deceive the Customs, but we have heard that before leaving the Mersey the destination of the ship was perfectly well known to, and was freely talked of among, a certain class of people. The Nightingale was found off Congou or Kiusembo, on the Afiican coast, with 960 slaves out of 1,600 which she had taken on board. The United States frigate Saratoga sent her boats alongside during the night, captured the ship, and sent her in charge of a prize crew to Liberia,—.Liverpool Post, I • G - ~~ ~~ -1, - ' ---, , ,/, f • THE NAPE The following is a letter from Malta, dated June 8 :—" Since I last wrote the Malacca has returned into port. You are already aware that the first section of the Malta and Alexandria cable, 230 miles in length, was laid without a single accident or check of any description. After joining the cable to the shore end at Tripoli, which had been previously laid by the steamtug Bulldog, despatched a week in advance, the Malacca, accompanied by the Medina and the Scourge, proceeded along the coast eastward on a line agreed upon towards Benghazi, which is to be the next station. Nearly 300 miles more of cable were thus laid eastward, forming a part of the second sectio n, the end being hermetically sealed, carried into shallow water, mad buoyed. This operation was as successfully per formed as the first. The entire length of between 500 and 600 miles has been carefully tested, and found to work admirably, it is even said with a smaller amount of electric power than any cable yet submerged. It is expected that its durability will be equal to the perfectness of its insulation. The Medina and Scourge have also returned to Malta, and we are now awaiting the remainder of the cable from England. Her Majesty's gunboat Mohawk left this on the Ist for Corfu, and the frigate Terrible arrived from that island yesterday. Her Majesty's ship Queen, Capt. Hillyar, arrived on the 30th ult. She touched at Rhodes at 8 30 a.m. on the 23d tilt, and sailed again at noon the same day. She reached Camila (Suda Bay) at 6 p.m. on the 24th, and left at 7 p.m. on the 25th. She found at Suda Bay her Majesty ' s ship James Watt. During her passage the weather was fine, but the winds were light and contrary. Her Ma jesty's ships in port are the Liffey, 51 (bearing the flag of Vice-Admiral William Fanshawe Martin), Hibernia, receiving-ship (flag of Rear-Admiral Codrington, C. 8.), Queen, 86 ; Terrible, 21 ; Gan net, 11 ; Medina, 4; Scourge, 6; Intrepid,, P„;._ Weser, 6 ; Boxer, 3; Supply, 2 ; and the tug Hearty; Major-General Warren, C. 8., proceeded home in the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Ellora on the Ist inst., on four months' leave of absence. It is reported that the gallant general will not re-assume the command of the Ist Brigade, but that he will be succeeded in the com mand by Major-General Horn, C. 8., who now com mands the 2d Brigade." A letter received by the Terrible, dated Corfu, June 4, says : " Sir G. Buller, K.C.8., has returned from the Southern Islands, after his usual half-yearly inspec tion of the troops. Sir Henry Storks left for the islands on the 28th ult. in the lonian steamer, accompanied by her Majesty's ship Agamemnon and another line-of-battle ship. It is expected he will be absent about a fortnight. The Neptune arrived here last week from your island, minus her mizen-topmast, which she lost off Paso, in a strong breeze, before entering the channel. After refitting, which took her a couple of days, she proceeded to Beyrout. The only ships of war at present in port are the Cmsar, London, and Orion line-of-battle ships ; the Terrible frigate, which leaves to-day with a mail for Malta ; and the gunboat Assurance. The London is under sailing orders for Beyrout, and will leave to-day or to-morrow for that place. Everything is quiet here.

A dreadful tragedy took place on Monday night at the Hawkcliffe toll-bar, near Steeton, about two miles from Keighley; on the Kendal and Keighley road. At the toll-house there resided a person named John Holdsworth, about 37 years of age, his wife, Elizabeth Holdsworth, about 40, ana his daughter, Philies, about 16 years of age. On Monday a brother of Mrs. Holdsworth, a man named Joseph Snowden, keeper of the toll-bar at Foul ridge, near Colne, visited Holdsworth for the pur pose of endeavouring to remove his sister to his own house. There have been some differences for some time past, and Mrs. Holdsworth has suffered bad treatment at the hands of her husband. Some say that he has exhibited symptoms of aberration of mind. Snowden had, about a quarter before six o'clock cn Monday evening, succeeded in getting his sister, Mrs. Holdsworth, from the house, immediately after there had been some difference between Holdsworth and his wife with regard to the payment of some toll by a passing drover or farmer. He observed his wife and brother go off, and went to the door and called her to come back. She refused ; she and her brother went on their way ; and Holdsworth went into the chamber and deliberately fired a loaded gun at his wife through the glass, shooting her dead on the spot. She was taken up quite dead, some of the contents of the gun having been lodged in her heart. Her brother, Snow den, was also wounded by some portion of the con tents entering various parts of his body, including his face, head, and breast, and he bled profusely. Two persons, a man named Thomas Shires, and a youth named Charles Garfoeth, who were fishing at the moment of the dreadful act, heard the report of the gun, and saw the poor woman instantly fall dead. Holdsworth had no sooner done the dread ful deed than he left the bar house. A policeman had passed a few minutes before, and on his atten tion being called to the dreadful murder he started in pursuit of Holdsworth. He found that he had gone in the direction of the hill behind the bar house. He pursued him five miles over the hills and moor to Heyden, and there found him at his father's house. He charged him with the murder of his wife, and took him into custody. The pri soner replied—" Well, I have shot her, and you may hang me where I am." Sergeant Macdonald took charge of the toll-house, and found double-barrelled gun, one barrel being loaded and the other having been apparently recently discharged. The prisoner was brought the same night to Keighley, and lodged in the lock-up. On Tuesday he was brought before Mr. J. G. Sugden, and remanded till Friday.nt An inquest was opened on Wednesday morning ten o'clock, at the Old Star Inn, Steeton,n b efore Mr. after an Mr. T.

Early yesterday morning the volunteers from the various Indian depots at Chatham for the 30th (Cambridgeshire) Regiment, which is ordered to Canada, left the garrison and proceeded to Alder shott camp. The volunteers given by the Ist bat tallion of the 20th Regiment to the second battalion will leave this morning. A series of important experiments have been made at Portsmouth on some new 4i-inch iron plates sup plied by private manufacturers, and fastened on the broad side of the Sirius, target ship. The gun used to propel the shot was an Armstrong 68-pounder. The new plates were, wo understand, successful to a very great extent in resist ing the shot, some of which fell dead from the side of the Sirius without doing any serious injury. One shot, which was brought ashore, struck with such tremendous force as to be almost flattened, and presents very much the appear ance of an Enfield rifle bullet, the cone of which has struck a target and has formed a cavity by the sides spreading out around it. The experiments have been made with regula tion strictness, and no one was admitted on board the Stork gunboat, from which the shot was fired, excepting the gun nery officers and one or two others privileged with a special pass from the Admiralty.
