Flatman gave Fulbeck a merry pipe opener on the plantation side of the town. The horse went free and well, yet an opinion obtains here that he is not exactly the class horse to win a great race like the Cesarewitch. Still his party have not abated their fondness one jot, and lam compelled to acknowledge that I share to a certain extf:nt their confidence. Oh f the rejoicings at the Victori a Club should the Brighton horse win, and prove that Mr. Pattieon is, after all, capable of better things tha• a training• a hack on the Steyne / In justice it must be admitted that this year he has sent Fulbeck to the poet il l a condition which would have been creditable to the mo at fashionable trainer. The horse has certainly held his place in the betting with wonderful firmness, and even the well-planned show of opposition which was got up ai;ainst him in the City produced only a tempo rary effect on the horse's position, and was immediately discovered to be a weak invention of the enemy. Opinions are divided about Malacca, who was galloped this morning from the ditch alongside of the Cesarewitch course . His style of going certainly left nothing to be desire 1. Still I agree with those who hold to the belief that the winning of plates and sweepstakes at Cardiff is not tuite a satisfactory recommendation to notice. If Ma;acca exhibited his true form at Epsom, where he was freeily backed for the Summer Handicap, but for which event be was, if my memory serves me aright, beaten off, he cannot have sufficiently improved to possess even a ghost of chance of carrying off the great event oct Tuesday next. It is popularly believed that Mr. T. Parr has discovered a kind of powder, by which marvellous powers are imparted to bis horses, and it is further believed that those powders he employed with good effect on Weathergage, Sauce boi:, Montague, and others. Still, he may employ " what drt gs, what charms, what mighty magic" he pleases on MaAcca, and then I think his means will not be patent enot.gh to insure the triumph of his colours. manner of reports are in circulation about Pole Star, some to the effect that the money is not " on," others that the mare was never better, and that she is really intended. Now, I believe Pole Star to be a good mare, and, should she start, I shall expect to see her obtain a ♦ery forward position. She has shown her ability to get through dirt, and should more rain fall that ability will certainly be tested to the utmost.. Still, people who are shrewd judges, believe in Speed the Plough—an animal in the same stable with Pole Star. The old horse is very well, and I am fain to con. fees that his success is one of the things dreamt of in my philosophy. I saw Cotswold come into the town this morning, and to judge from his appearance " between the sheets' he is in capital condition. He may be a good horse, but I fancy that his weight will "put the stopper on him." Barflenr was on the heath this morning, and galloped in good style. Merlin was also out and looked well, and full of muscle. Still, I do not deem him capable of giving illbs , to Barflenr, and shall not expect to see him obtain so forward a position for the Cesarewitela as he did for the Ebor Handicap. Of William Day's lot December is only now talked about, but I think his hackersinay as well seek " iee in June as sunshine in December." Alice Wentworth seems quite gone, and Termagant, of whom some expectations were formed, does not appear to be " coming." King of Scotland, who was much fancied towards the end of last week, was, I am informed, tried on Saturday and found wanting. The King's pretensions were never in my opinion very formidable. Of Messrs. Saxon and Barber's lot I prefer the Prince of Orange, who appears to be in running con dition, and, if he should be the trusted representative of the stable, I shall expect him to take no inglorious part in the race. An analysis of the respective chances would only unnecessarily occupy space. Above I have placed before the reader what information I have been enabled to obtain, and have briefly expressed ray opinion on the principal competitors. My " notions" as to the result of the race are as under : The first rank will comprise Speed the Plough, Pole Star, Fulbeck, Vengeance, Cotswold, Prince of Orange, Merlin, Bartieur, and Malacca. Of these I shall "stand on " FT LBECK, VENGEANCE, and POLE STAR, and shall reserve SPEED THE PLOUGH for a " cockbo a " N o twithstanding the fuss which is made about Sydney f o r the Clearwell , I shall stic k to my old favourit e Lambourne, and, despite his Gibs. penalty, I shall expect Li m to pull through. Western Power will win the Bedford Stakes. The Bretby Stakes I assign to Queen of the East. Sydney's running for the Prendergast will, of coarse, materially depend upon his performance for the Clearwell. My present fancy for the former event, therefore, pointi to Drumonr. Goldfinch, who looks many pounds better than he did at Doncaster, will beat the Physalia colt for the Produce Stakes. I have received a strange account of the race for the Two-Year -Old Stakes at Bedford, and there are persons who unhesitatingly express their opinion that Gemma Vergy ought to have beaten Tournament by at least two lengths. Tourna men t, it is said, lathere d considerabl y before the st ar t ; and that, in fact, lie was not t he same horse, so far as h ealth was concerned, that he was at Doncaster, W 8 Gamma di Vergy had evidently re covered the form which be had lost before meeting Tournament in Yorkshire. I did not see the race at Bedford, and, of course, I have only hearsay reports to guide me. Gemma di Vergybadly , got somewhat but I may say that, so far as foul play was concerned, I d on 't believe a word of the reports in circulation. Newmarket, Sunday night. A FRESHMAN. THE CESAREWITCII. NEWMARKET. —Monday. The following ho rses are here :—De cember, Malacca, Mr. Sykes, Winkfiel d, S p eed the Plou gh , Fisherman, Brother to Grey To mm y , Poodle, York shire Grey, Mary, Flatterer, Rogerthorp, Fulbeck, Venison, ,Cots. wold, Prince of Orange, jolly Marine, Homily, , ,erva, Falstaff, Treachery, Comedy, Rialto, Tyre, First Fly, Teo:6 - 110nel Middleton, Gortschakoff, Barfleur, Peter These two great aquatic celebrities have been matched to row two races on their respective waters. The stake in each match is 561. a side, 401. of which sum has been deposited. The first race will be in London, on Thursday, the 18th of November, from Putney to Mortlake ; and the second will take place at Norwich, from Surlingham to Thorpe, on Thursday, November 27, each course extending four and a half miles. The performances of both men have been very brilliant. Buttle commenced his career in 1850, beating Aldred, of Nerwich, in a sculler's match at Thorpe. In 1841 he defeated F. Lett, who capsized, and in three days afterwards rowed him again, and was again victorious, since which he has acquired additional fame, and is now champion of Norwich. Kelly made his debut somewhat later, scarcely being heard of till 1854, in the Royal Thames National Regatta, at Putney, where he defeated John Mackinney, and others of great celebrity. In 1855, in the new regatta, he again defeated John Mackinney, but, owing to some dispute, was disqualified. Conse quent upon this another race was made between him and bis old opponent Mackinney, when the latter capsizing, Kelly of course won, and they again rowed in the spring of the present year, when he once more defeated Mac kinney. After thi s he was repeatedly victorious, and at the Manchester Regatta won in the four, pair, and scul lers' races, and in the regatta at Putney this year was again unusually successful, and is now matched to row James Messenger, the champion of the Thames. SPORTING NOTES. CHANCES FOR THE CESARE WITCH. Upwards of a hundmd horses have arrived, and the cry is " still they come." A dreary morning induced few people to visit the exercise grounds before breakfast. The atmosphere was close and muggy, and as I write a dull, leaden-hued sky frowns ominously, and gives no very cheering prospect of the weather. The course is in parts sticky enough, but it may nevertheless be pro nounced " good going." The whittle of the railway engine, followed as it is by the rattling of fly and omni bases into the town, announces the arrival of a lar go majority of visitors by the Eastern Counties " spec' 4 ,l a few minutes of bustle and activity ensue ; tur: dtes form little groups in front of the rooms, and '.ter kicking their heels about they disappear, an d when the sound of the church-going bell is heard calling people to evening service, the streets present their wonted appearance, and the Sabbath stillness is unbroken. As the evening ad vances a bright blaze of light is thrown across the road from the Subscription Room, wlyare Fuller Andrews, in Sunday trim, is prepared to receive his guests. Few people drop in upon him, conversation is quietly con ducted, the old topics are di.scassed, and time is princi pally occupied with reading the newspapers. Eleven o'clock strikes, and the last man yawns, stretches his legs, leaves the roam, and retina to the one Ittir chamber in his hostelry. I may be that last man, sa y "Good Night "to Fuller, as he turns off the and take my lonely way through the quirt street --- -meeting no one— not even a dog of erratic habits —not even a prowling and dissipated mouser. 'Every house presents a blank, blinds are drawn down, and the whole place seems re• dolent of repose and sleep. Such is the appearance of Newmarket on the "Meeting Sunday." People seem more ignorant here on that all-important question " what'fi to win the Cesarewitch" than they do in London. Every man you meet has a new tale of liking and disliking to communicate, and in his ideas as to this probable result of the event it is easy to trace the wish which is father to the thought. One person will -whisper in your ear that Malacca, for instance, goes as free as a greyhound and strong as a lion, whilst another will tell you that he is a nasty, scrubby beast, and a shocking bad galloper. I shall not, therefore, attempt to trace the origin of the contrariety of opinion which prevails, but shall express my own notions, in the confi dence that they at least are not founded on prejudice. The horaea.most talked about here are Vengeance and Malacca. The former was highly and most satisfactorily tried on Saturday 'morning—it is said with Tyre and Jolly Marine—an'i won with ridiculous ease. Although this year he has not displayed any particular " form," yet last season he proved himself to be an animal of no ordinary racing merit. That he is favourably -weighted is incontestible, and if his staying powers enable him to get home —and on this point many well founded doubts are entertained —he will in my opinion be amongst the very foremost competitors at the firish. 'Vengeance may be pronounced emphatically a " race horse," and the same cannot be said of the leather. flapping animals of which the field is likely to be mostly composed.

TATTERSALL'S, SATURDAY. The rc, orn, which - gas opened for comparing upon the r ail -411 P°' tant event of the Second October Meeting, the' —esat. er.;itch Stakes, was well attended, but speculation was 11 "Jt remarkably brisk. The principal movement was the • elevation of Malacca to the premiership, who at 9 to 1 • _ received considerable support ; a point less was all *hat was obtainable about him at the close. Pole Star and Fulbeck kept pretty closely together after the ad vancement of Malacca, although the mare had a slight call at the finish. Middleton, who waq reported to have met with an accident in the stable, and who was in con- sequence driven out of the market in " city circles " on Friday, was once backed at 25 to 1, which was the highest offer we heard against him. Both Barfleur and December were in some demand. The transactions on the Cambridgeshire were very limited. Lance, the sometime favourite, was quite friend• less ; 20 to 1 was currently offered against hind. CLOSING PRICES. CESAIEWITCH STAKES.

On Sunday, the 21st September last, he dined as usual at the mess, where, as he has complained to his friends, he received some insulting language from Lord Ernest Vrple. On that occasion, we believe, Lord Vano sat at table, with Birt on his left hand and Ames on his right, while Winstanley was seated opposite, but not immediately. During dinner, it is said, Lord Ernest Vane kept up a constant fire of taunts against Ames in an under tone, ac companied with many offensive expressions, which wo forbear repeating at the present stage of the inquiry. After dinner Ames took two or three glasses of wine, and then, abort half-past nine o'clock, rose to depart. He was followed, however, into the passage by Vane and Birt, both of whom seized hold of him and dragged him into Lord Vane's room, Lieut. Winstanley and Cornet Fyfe following. There he was forcibly held down on a sofa by Birt and Vane, while Winstanley went into Vane's bed room and brought a pair of scissors, which he gave to Vans, and with which Vane completely denuded him of his whis kers on the left side of his face, Winstanley and Fyfe look ing on. This escapade over he (Ames) was dragged along the passage to the antechamber adjoining the mess-room, in which coffee is served after dinner, and in this condition pushed violently in, where some of the rest of the officers were, by Birt and Vane. He appears to have made what resistance he dared to this treatment, but was overpowered by superior force. Here, however, one is inclined to ask what use he made of his legs and arms while subjected to all this violence? He is a young man, well nigh six fret high, and surely he might have employed all his great natural means of defence with far more effect to ward off this indignity. To do him jus tice, we believe he states that he so far controlled his feelings as to forbear to strike men who wore his superior officers, even under that amount of provocation, knowing that to do so was a high military offence under the articles of war. One cannot but smile at the notion of a man ever being charged with such an offence under the circumstances. He finally left the Preston Barracks about half-past 10 o'clock, and returned to his quarters at the Pavilion. He had reached the top of the stairs leading to his apartments, and was about to apply the key to the door of his sitting room, which he had locked on leaving in the earlier part of the day, when he heard voices at the foot of the stairs which he recognised, but whose the voices were it woul I Rot be desirable to state here, for obvious reasons. Not wishing to encounter the parties, knowing who they were, he retired by another way to a part of the court-yard, from which he heard them burst open the door and afterwards saw a light in his room and the shadows of people inside on the window-blinds. On their retiring from the barracks, which they did in no long time, he proceeded to his room, where he found that the furniture had been turned topsy turvy, his drawers pulled out of their places, and his linen thrown about the floor, two of his hats smashed, and his bed completely saturated with water. Heslept on the floor of his room that night. Other damage was done, but it is unnecessary to give the details. Next morning he related the whole circumstances to the adjutant of the regiment, Lieutenant Jennings, with a request that he would re port them officially to Lieut.-Col. Low, in command of the depot, which he did. Lieut.-Col. Low in his turn reported them to the Horse Guards, which led to the special in quiry by Gen. Lawrenson, and to Lord Ernest Vane, Cor net Birt, and Lieut. Winstanley being called on t. deliver up their swords, and being placed under close arrest, in which they have remained since Monday week, when the visit of Gen. Lawrenson was made. It is stated, as a mat t•r of course, that either a court-martial or what is called a " court of inquiry" will be held to investigate the trans actions in question, as the Judge-Advocate or his Deputy hall decide, it remaining, we believe, with him, according to custom, to decide by which of those tribunals the of fence is cognisable. TRANSATLANTIC STEAM NAVIGATION. (Front the New )tork jouP;nrq of Commerce) It is our purpose in this article to take notice of the growth and development of transatlantic steam nrtvig. , :,-• tion, and to show what has been accomplished by citi zens of the United States in this department of naval art since they took the field in 1847, in competition with their rivals of the British Isles, who, for nine years pre vious, dating with the pioneer voyages of the Sirius and Great Western in April, 1838, had retained the mono poly of the trade by steamships between the two conti• nents. Allusion will be made to our progress in naval architecture, the difficulties that have been encountered from inexperience and disaster, and to the measure of pecuniary succe• is which has thus far attended our efforts. The prospectivejcompletion of the leviathan steam ship Great Eastern on one side of the Atlantic, and the Adri atic on the other—both of which will far ont-distance anything of the kind before attempted and inaugurate a new era in ocean navigation—seem to point out the present as a suitable time for a glance at the past. The powerful incentive arising from the urgent prosecution of rival interests, backed by the skill, wealth, and scien tific knowledge of two enlightened nations, has doubt less contributed to the mutual advancement of England and the United States in this matter. An interval of but 18 years has elapsed since the first vessel wholly pro pelled by steam crossed the Atlantic (though we claim the honour of despatching, in 1819, the steamer Savan nah, the arrivalof which was duly chronicled at Lloyd's), and now there are 14 lines of steamers, comprising 48 vessels, plying between Europe and the United States. Recently not less than 15 arrivals of foreign steamers have taken place in a single month, narrowing the At lantic to a ferry. The preponderance of foreign enterprise, as shown by the Shipiing List, is not remarkably flattering to Ame ricans, considering the achievements of our own Fultou, just 50 years ago, and the liberai encouragement to steam ship building which the Government has at va rious times afforded, by its contracts for carrying the mail. Out of the 48 steamers, but 12 are of American construction. It is, however, to be considered that but nine years have elapsed since our operations commenced, while foreign companies have been 18 years engaged in ocean steam navigation, or exactly twice as long as our selves, and that the period of their monopoly gave them advantages against which it was difficult for us to con tend. A series of untoward events have no doubt con tributed to this result. Not only have our steamers been run at enormous expense— in several instances absorb ing the entire profits—but disaster has swept off a num ber of our best ships, following close on the heels of enterprise, with palsying hand. Four of our most valu able steamers have been entirely lost—two having been driven ignominiously ashore and broken up ; a third was sunk by a collision, with nearly all on board ; and a fourth, the noblest of the fleet, has never been heard from, but is supposed to have struck an iceberg. Foreign companies, especially when the greater extent of their operations is considered, appear to have been more for tunate. They have lost, in all, four ships from their American lines. The President was lost in the year 1841 ;no one knows how or where. The Columbia, in nautical phraip, " broke her back" on some rocks on the American shore of the Atlantic. The City of Philadel phia went to pieces on the rocks near Cape Race. The City of Glasgow sailed from Liverpool on the Ist of March, 1854, and has not since been heard of. The Great Britain had a narrow escape in Dundrum Bay, coast of Ireland, but has since been restored to service. The disasters to steamships may be summed up as fol lows : Name. Fate. Valuation. President Never heard of X350,000 Columbia All hands saved 300,000 Humboldt All hands saved 507,000 City of Glasgow Never heard of City of Philadelphia...

TOUCHING! STORY OF A STREET CLOWN. The ono to whom I refer wag a melancholy-looking man, with the sunken eyes and other characteristics of semi -starvation, whilst his face was scored with lines and wrinkles, telling of paint and premature age. I saw him performing in the streets with a school of acrobats, soon after I bad been questioning him ; and the readiness and business-like way with which he resumed his profes sional buffoonery was not a little remarkable. His story was more pathetic than comic, aid proved that the life of a street clown is, perhaps, the most wretched of all in existence. Jest as he may in the streets, hie life is literally no joke at home. "I have been a clown for sixteen years," he said, " having lived totally by it for that time. I was left motherless at two years of age, and my father died when I was nine. He was a car• man, and his master took me as a stableboy, and I stayed with him until he failed in business. I was then left des titute again, and got employment as a supernumerary at Astley's at ls.a night. I was a ' super' some time, arid got an insight into theatrical life. I got acquainted, too, with tinging people, and could sing a good song, and came out at last on my own account, in the streets, in the Jim Crow line. My necessities forced me into a public line, which I am far from liking; I'll pull trucks at ls. per day rather than get 12s, a week at my business. I've tried to get out of the line. I've got a friend to advertise for me for a situation. I've tried to get into the police, and I have tried other things, but somehow there seems an impossi bility to get quit of the street business. Many times I have played the clown, and indulged in all buffoonery, with a terribly heavy heart. I have travelled very much,' ' too; but I never did well in the profession. At races I may Ihave made 10e. for two or three days, but that was only occasional ; and what is 104. to keep a wife and family on for a month, may be? I have three children, one now i only eight weeks o'd. You can't imagine, sir, what a curse the street business often becomes, with its insults and starvations. The day before my wife was confined I jumped and laboured—doing Jim Crow for 12 hours, iii the wet, too—and earned ls. 3d.; for I keep a sort of log of my earnings and expense. You'll see in it what I've ( taken as clown, or the funny man with a party of nero ,l bats, since the beginning of the year." He showed me this log, as he called it, which was kept in small figures, on paper folded up as economically as possible. Tais account shows an average of Bs. t!Sd. a week as the gross gain, while (if the expenses be deducted) not quite le. remain as the average weekly sum to be taken home to wife and family. " I dare say," continued this melancholy funny man, " that no persons think more of their dignity than such as are in my way of life. I would rather starve than ask for parochial relief. Many a time I have gone to my labour with - Alt breaking my fast, and played clown until I could raise a dinner. I have to make jokes as clown, and could fill a volume with all I know. I never dress or paint myself at home. We all dress at a public-house. In the street where I lodge only a very few know what I do for a 1 living. I and my wife both strive to keep the business a secret from our neighbours. My wife does a little wash ing when able, and often works eight hours for 6d. I go out at eight in the morning, and return at dark. My children hardly know what I do. They see my dregs(' lying about, but that is all. My eldest is a girl of thir teen. She has seen me dresed at Stepney fair, where she brought me my tea—l live near there. She laughs when she sees me in my clown's dress, and waats to stay , with me ; but I would rather see her lie dead lv.fore me I (and I had two dead in my place at cue rime last Whit sun Monday was a twelvemonth) than she should ever belong to my profession. I know three or more clowns as miserable and bad off as myself. I think there are three regular clowns in the metropolis, and one of these is not a professional ; he never smelt the sawdust I know. The moat that I have known have been shoemakers be fore taking to the business. When I go out a street-clown the first thing I do is a comic medley dance, and then after that I crack a few jokes ; and that is the whole of i my entertainment. The first part of the medley dance is I called the Good St. Anthony (I was the first that ever danced the polka in the streets), then I do a waltz, and I wind up with a hornpipe. After that I go through a little burlesque business—l fan myself, and one of the school asks rue whether lam out of breath. I answer ' no, the breath is out of me.'

COLLISION AND Loss OF A VESSEL AND THIBTY-TWO LIVES. —Rip JANEIRO, Sept. O.—The Raven (American ship), Captain Croker, on her voyage from New York for Sumatra, put into this port on the Gth September, with damage, having been in contact with the Brazilian brig Catao, from Bahia tai this port, which sank immedi ately afterwards ; master and part of the crew saved ; two bands and thirty negro passengers drowned.

" By order of his Royal Highness the General Command ing-in -Chief. " G. A. WETTIERALL, Adjutant-GeneraL" The authorities of the Board of Ordnance, with the view of obtaining the best description of pontoon for use in the service, have directed a series of trials to be made at Chat ham by the troops belonging to the Royal Sappers and Miners of several new kinds of pontoons, each of which is alleged by the inventors to be an improvement on the pre sent pontoons in use by the Royal Engineers, which are bhe invention of Major-Gen. T. Blanshard, C. 8.,, Royal Engineers. The last invention of this kind which has been tried at Chatham is a pontoon which has been brought under the notice of the Ordnance authorities by Mr. J. Forbes, R.E., the inventor. This differs from the present pontoons in use in the service, which are of a cylindrical form, while Mr. Forbes's invention consists of a pontoon entirely different, being equiangular. The trial of the in vention took place at St. Mary's-creek, Chatham, in the presence of Major-Gen. Sir T. Blanshard, Major F. Has sard, R.E., Capt. C. E. Cumberland, R.E., and other en gineer officers, and the result was considered to be satis factory. The Authorities at the head-quarters of the Royal Engi neers' establishment at Brompton barracks, Chatham, have given their permission for the formation of evening classes for the instruction of the non-commissioned officers belong. ing to the Royal Sappers and Miners in military drawing and fortification. The classes are under the direction of Serjeant-Major J. Jones, of the Royal Engineers, and a number of non-commissioned officers have availed them selves of the opportunity of obtaining a knowledge of those branches of military science. ' By the reduction in the army to the half-pay list of offi cers belonging to regiments of infantry having 16 compa nies, and which came into operation on the Ist inst., 197 captains and 430 lieutenants, making a total of 627 officers, are placed on half-pay. It is expected that the reduction in cavalry regiments, the number of troops in which were during the war augmented, will come into operation at the end of the present month. The Mayor of Clonmel has received a communication from Lord Seaton to the effect that an entire regiment of infantry will be ordered to garrison Clonmel in a few days. Her Majesty's steam frigate Retribution, Capt. Barker, arrived at Spithead on Saturday to await sailing orders. Her Majesty's steam sloop Fury, Commander Leckie, want out of Portsmouth harbour on Saturday to try her engines, prior to being reported ready for sea. She is in tended for the China station, where she did much execu tion against the pirates of those seas, during her first com mission, under Commander (now Capt. and C. B.) Jas. Will cox. The screw gunboat Bustard will accompany her. The American frigate Merrimac is an object of much in terest to the naval men of Portsmouth, a great many of whom have been to see her in the Southampton Water. The students of the Royal Naval College have visited her, and also the Royal Naval engineers ; all speak in high terms of the courtesy shown them. Fier Majesty's sloop Daring, 12, Commander Napier, arrived at Spithead yesterday evening from the North American and West India stations. The steam tender Advice, Master• Commander George Raymond, haring been fitted with new boilers at hey• ham, left Plymouth Sound on Saturday to resume her duties at Queenstown. The defects in the steam transport Perseverance having been made good at Devonport, she was towed on Saturday by the Confiance and Pike steamers into Plymouth Sound, preparatory to sailing for the West Indies. The steam vessel Alert, lately launched at Pembroke, having been fitted at Keyham with new engines and boilers, went out of Plymouth Sound at 10 o'clock on Sa turday morning, and returned at four in the afternoon after a successful trial trip in the Channel. The Devastation, 6 guns, paddlewheel steam sloop, Commander Edward Marshall, W 33 put out of the fitting basin at Sheerness on Saturday, and will be ready for sea in a few days. Lieutenant• Colonel Crofton, R. A., has been presented with a handsome epergne by the officers of the late Irre gular Horse Artillery, in token of their regard during the period they served under his command in the East. The following appointments were made on Saturday at the Admiralty : Captain W. A. Willis, Captain of Greenwich Hospital, ♦ice Captain George Mowbray, deceased ; Lieut. S. C. Peale, to the Satellite ; Lieut. Godfrey Taylor to the Edinburgh; Lieut. George Parsons (additional) to the Victory ; Lieut. P. Saumarez to the Cesar; E. H. C. Smith, master's assistant, to the Czesar ; Courtenay A. Hayes, midshipman, to the Fury. THE MILITARY FRACAS AT BRIGHTON. It was stated in our impression of Thursday, on the au thority of two local newspapers, that a series of " freaks: , as they were mildly termed, had of late been practised by certain of the officers of the 4th or Queen's Own R,egi ment of Light Dragoons, now stationed at Brighton, on seine of their own number, and particularly upon one Cornet Ames, which bad resulted in a report to the Horse Guards, a special inquiry into the circumstances by Gen. Lawrenson, the General commanding the brigade of which the regiment forms part, and the cicse arrest of three offi cers— namely, Lord E. V. Tempest, Cornet Dirt, and Lieut. Winstanley, preparatory, as it is supposed, to a court , martial. The account in question was in several respects imperfect, and we are now in a position to throw addi tional light upon the whole transaction, so far at least as regards the outrage upon Cornet Ames—fur outrage it un doubtedly was, if the attendant circumstances aro capable of being established in evidence—which led immediately to the official inquiry before General Lawrenson. Lord E. Vane, one of the officers implicated in the affair, is already known to fame in connection with a serious• assault he committed just about a year ago upon the manager of the Windsor Theatre, for which he was fined 5/. before the local magistrates, and had afterwards to pay 251. in da mages in an action of trespass tried in the Court of Queen's Bench, arising out of the same transaction. Mr. Thomas Harling Ames, the cornet on whom the "freak" in ques tion so-called was practised, is about 22 years of age, and the son of an independent gentleman—not of a clergyman, as was erroneously stated—residing in the neighbourhood of Regent's-park, London. He only joined the regiment so recently as the 13th of August last, and, almost from the very day be did so, he has been subjected to a conti nual series of " practical jokes," as they are designated in common parlance. These he bore good-humouredly for the most part, and to show that he was not wanting in e.prit de corps it may be stated that on one or two occasions when he entered his room, and unexpectedly found some of his brother officers there—at present it does not appear whom—taking liberties with his property, be quietly pocketed the affront, and sat clown and entertained them for the remainder of the night. Recently, on returning to his quarters, he discovered that his room had been forcibly entered in his absence, and his stock of candles melted in a vessel on the fire, and hung outside the window, with some of his regimentals. Even this, which was only one of a great number of affronts, does nut seem to have exhausted his forbearance ; and it was not until an assault. and great personal indignity had been played off upon him that ho appealed to his commanding officer, Lieut.-Colonel Low, for protection. It happened in this way, according to the best information that can be obtained in a matter on which so much secrecy is observed in military society at, Brighton. It ought first, perhaps, to be stated that Cornet Ames is said to bo a young man of a frank, pliant disposition, hut, though the son of a gentleman iu good circumstances, not having either the means or the inclination to launch into extravagant courses, he seems to have given umbrage to some of the younger among his brother officers by per sonal habits little in accordance with their own in some respects. The regiment to which ho belongs is stationed at two separate places in Brighton, one being the Preston Barracks, on the outskirts of the town, and the other the Pavilion Barracks, in its centre, and about a mile and a half distant from the former. The officers' mess is at the Preston Barracks, and there, too, are the quarters of the three officers now under arrest. Cornet Ames, on the other hand, though called on to do daty daily at the Preston Barracks and to dine at the mese there, has This statemeent of facts has been collected with great pains and care, and in the main we believe it is such as will be given in evidence before any military tribunal by which the matter may be investigated. Much of it is ne cessarily and unavoidably, under the circumstances, of an cx pas - te character, and it must be read with that qualifi chtion ; but it is substantially that on which the advice of counsel has been taken, before whom it was laid by an eminent solicitor, acting as the professional adviser of Mr. Ames and his father. To do Lord Ernest Vane justice, we understand he denies using the language imputed to him by Mr. Ames. The other officers implicated may also, possibly, disclaim having taken the part in the transac tions in question with which they are charged. These are all questions to be investigated by the proper legal tribunal. In the meantime, with no wish whatever to prejudice the case in the slightest degree, we publish this statement of the circumstances, having previously used all the means at our command to insure the greatest approach to accuracy. It remains to be stated that Cornet Ames has felt it right to take the course he has done in the matter on public grounds alone, feeling, with his friends and professional advisers, that if he over looked such an outrage he would have rendered himself amenable to the censure implied in a memorandum in the hands of every officer in the army, and written on the sth of July, 1853, by Lord Hardinge, the late Commander in -Chief, in reference to an indignity offered to an ensign in the 50th Regiment, at Preston, in that year. " If," said Lord Hardinge on that occasion, " Ensign -- had tamely submitted to the gross and insulting language applied to him or to the personal indignity of pumping upon him, and if the facts had come to the General Com manding-in-Chief's knowledge, he would have considered Ensign -- as unworthy to hold a commission in her Ma jesty's service.' "Every officer," he continued, " what ever be his rank, is the guardian of his own honour, his conduct being governed and controlled by the articles of war. It is clearly laid down in the Judge-Advocate's letter to the Secretary at War of the 17th of April, 1811, and circulated by the Secretary at War, in transmitting the Mutiny Act and the articles of war of that year to every regiment, that if an officer passes over without no tice an insult offered to him he is liable to be brought to a court-martial, not because he declines to fight a duel, but because he shrinks from availing himself of those means which the articles of war and the justice of his brother officers plac3 at his disposal when redress for an insult is not prevented by his own misconduct."—iforizing paper.

THE AMERICAN MAIL—LIVERPOOL, Saturday.—The British and North American Royal Mail steanislip Arabia, Captain James Stone, sailed front the Mersey at four o'clock this afternoon for Boston and Halifax, with the usual mails for the United States and Britisi, possessions in North America, 150 passengers, and a full cargo of merchandise on freight. THE IVIISSING STEAMER TAY.—Letters have been r•e• ceived in England from Havannah, dated September 13, mentioning the arrival of her Majesty's ship Tartar there, with a Vera Cruz mail. The Tartar reported the departure of the Royal Mail steamer Tay from Vera Cruz, bound for Tampico, towards the latter end of August. She also reported that the Tay had not ar• rived at Vera Cr uz on the sth of September, when sla: was duo there, and, in consequence of her non-arrival, the Tartar lett on that day with a Mexican mail for England, and conveyed it to Havannah. The state ment, therefore, from New York by the steam-pac 'et Atlantic, last week, that the Tartar reported the Tay t Tampico, on the sth September, must be erroneous. It is remarkable that the Tartar, on finding the non arrival of the Tay at Vera Cruz from Tampico, did not pro ofed along the coast in search of her, as it must hate been cAnjectured that some accident had befallen her. Stich a search is very usual on the part of her Majesty's chips, when practicable. Considering the entire number of steamers afloat, dis asters have not been remarkably frequent ; but fortune's smiles have been bestowed most freely on our competitors, notwithstanding the acknowledged superiority of many of our ships and the excellence of their personal equip ment. Even in our domestic lines this fact holds true, as we have lost seven fine steamers, mostly on the Pacific coast, viz. the Independence, which sunk i n th e P ac ifi c , with 120 lives, and the Tennessee and St. Louis—total wrecks. The San Francisco, valued at $300,000, was lost in the Atlantic in the same year, with many valuable lives the Yankee Blade in the year following, besides the ill-fated Rhode Island, and the North Carolina in the year 1855. It is estimated that 1,420 lives and 7,930,000 dols. in property have been lost in steamships since the year 1853. Steamships, as a whole, have not been a dividend paying property to such as have invested in them. The Ocean Steam Navigation Company, which was the pioneer American line, has been running nine years without any serious accident, and though at une time threatened with extinction under a heavy load of debt, has been paying regular semi-annual dividends of 5 per cent. for the last three years. Their boats are not cal culated for great speed, but are good 12-day steamers. The Havre line, next established, paid a dividend of 7 per cent, about two years ago, but disaster early checked its promised career of prosperity. These comprise all the pecuniary successes we have as yet to chronicle, out of the domestic trade. Some of the Chagres and Cali fornia lines have paid very handsomely. The Collins' line, established in 1850, has not paid even simple in terest to the stockholders. The original estimated cost of this line was $2,500,000, but a renewed effort on the part of their English antagonists made it necessary to en large the size of their proposed steamers from 2,000 tons, as stipulated in the contract, to 3,000 tons. Tae sum of $1,130,000 was subscribed for their construction, and after the increased pay allowed by Congress an effort was made to fill up the stock to the required amount, but without success, and the line has since been maintained by private enterprise, aided by Government patronage. When Mr. Collins and his associates proposed to build a line of steamships the Cunard line was regarded as the first in the world, having run 11 years and reduced the passage between Liverpool and Boston to about 124 days—equal to say 13k to New York. In undertaking the new enterprise in competition with the resources of established British capitalists there were great obstacles to be surmouated,the chiefof which was inadequate finan cial ability; but a naturalised citizen of more than 50 years' residence volunteered alone to furnish more than $2,000,000, and thus assured the success of an enterprise in which the character and commercial power of the country were largely involved. It was then said to Mr. Collins, " You may sink the whole of the capital in vested, but must not make a failure." What has since been achieved is matter of history. The first year the Col lins line was started the passage to New York was made in less than 10 days. The Cunarders have since made 8 ships, all designed to beat that time, and one ship (the Persia) has succeeded, on the eastern passage only. On western passages the performances of the Collins' line are still unequalled. Of the Philadelphia and Liverpool line it is stated that uie a loss of $15,000 was incurred on the first voyageand of City of Baltimore, on the second abou t S1() so that the enter the last voyage barely paid expenses ; prise has thus far not proved remunerative. Passing now from a financial view of the subject to observe what progress has been made in this depart ment of naval architecture, we have strongly marked re sults. Fulton's steamer Claremont left New York for Albany on the 7th day of August, 1807, dispelling all rational doubt as to the successful application of steam t• navigation. It is instructive to notice subsequent conquests of science and art in this direction, giving fleeter wings to commerce, contracting the space of oceans, and accelerating the strides of communication between distant continents. The following table, giving the relative sizes of the largest steam ships that has been built, affords some idea of what has been accomplished : Length. Carp. Meas. Atlantic (Collins') 2BO 3,000 Great Britain 322 3,500 Vanderbilt 335 5,100 Niagara, U. S. steam-frigate 345 5,200 Himalaya Adriatic (Collins') 354 5,838 Persia Great Eastern The completion of the Adriatic and Great Eastern will be looked to as events of great interest. A gentleman just returned from Europe, and who visited the gre a t steamer building near London, says the hull is as yet net more than half built, and none of the machinery is yet put into her. The number of men at work on her is now reduced to 300, so that the work is not proceeding so fast as formerly. April is spoken of as the time when the launch will probably take place. The gentleman above referred to, who is a president of one of our steam-shin companies and a connoisseur in naval architecture, says the ship is of a beautiful model, and there appears be be little doubt of her success, particularly as regards speed; but how she will pay her enormous running expenses is a problem which yet remains to be solved. The hull is 700 feat in length by 60 in breadth, made of a double thickness of iron plates, which are laid on either side of a longitudinal framework, combining th e strongest method of construction with the least weight of material. The vessel is divided into 10 water-tight compartment's, with sub-compartments, so that each portion would be self-sustaining in case of wreck. Both screw and side wheels will be used. The latter will have six boilers, and the former four engines and the same number of boilers. The shaft of the screw is 160 feet long and weighs 60 tons. The diameter of the screw is 24 feet; of the wheels, 56 feet. The speed of the ship is expected to average 16 knots p er h our under steam. The masts will be seven in number, spreadtug 6,500 square yards. A semaphore, coloured lights, and the electric telegraph will be employ e d in conveying orders between the officers, according as their use may be fount". necessary. Her first voy age w ill probably be to Portland, Maine. The Adriat.ie, from our own workshops, is very near comple'ion, and, from the improved machinery with which she is fitted and the excelleace of her model, many are disitoed to entertain almost incredible calculations as to the speed of which she will be susceptible. Sho will no doubt be a triumph for our mechanics, and will in all pro bability excel, not only in workmanship, but in all the qualities which constitute a first•class steam ship. She is without exception, the largest ship in the world yet launched, whether of timber or iron. The Persia (iron) is longer, but she has 5 feet less beam, and 14 inches less depth of hold; so that her actual size is not equal to that of the Adriatieby something like 300 tons. Con.pared with the Great Eastern she is a pigmy, but she is as large as will be required to meet the demands of trade for some years to come, and quite aslarge as can be run with any advantage to her owners, The principalidimenaione of the Adriatic JOINT-Srom BANKS.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and pills astounding Remedies for Bad Legs.—Robert Dickie, of Broad-street, Alloa, informed Mr. Cummings, druggist, of the same town, that about 18 years ago he injured his ankle while at work in a coal-pit, which afterwards formed into a running ulcer. To cure it he tried innu. merable remedies, but without effect. He was in the Royal Infirmary about three years ago. There they said amputation was the only chance of saving his life. How ever, after all, Holloway's ointment and pills have been the sole means of healing the wound, and rendering his leg perfectly sound.—Sold by all medicine vendors, a nd at Professor Holloway's Establishments, 244, Strand, London, and 80, Maiden-lane, New York. sire as follows :—Length, 354 feet ; breadth of beam 50 ; depth of hold, 53 feet ; diameter of wheel, 45. She will have oscillating engines of 2,000-horse power, with cylinders 100 inches in diameter and 12 feet stroke. lien boilers wilt be eight in number. The whole ship will be divided by eight water-tight compartments of oak, six inches thick, fastened in the strongest manner. Ht r estimated cost is 850,000 dole. In all the mechanical details of the construction of this remarkable ship human skill seems to have done its utmost. At the present time the construction of steam propel• lers for ordinary mercantile service seemsto be attracting more attention. The Novelty Iron Works have a very fine working model of a propeller engine, and it is anti cipated that ultimately this class of vessels will occupy an important place in our mercantile marine. For naval purposes its superiority is undoubted. PRICES 0? S HAEES, BANKS, ASSURANCE, A,ND OTHER COM PANIES' STOCK.
