Parliament having purchased a site for a new National Gallery at Kensington, the site and' actiacent ground - now oc cupied by the National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, is in every respect one of the finest and most appropriate that could bo selected in London for such an Hotel. As investments for capital, such undertakings have proved highly successful. The leading capitalists in Europe and America have united in promoting them. The Great Western Hotel in London, on the same principle, has proved to be a highly remunerative investment ; the net profits in the last division were 31 per cent. per annum, and the dividend was at the rate of 25 per cent, per annum. The Shares have about - doubled in value, and, although it has not been in ope ration two years, it is too small to meet the daily applications for a ccommodation.

IS h ~a v of April, 1856 Resolve I—That the hill lately introduced into the House of Com mons, pur..tortqu to he for the better regulation of the Corporation of the City of London, althou :11 professing to abolish such cus•oms and privileges as injuriously affect trade, ignores the whole body of the Liver , is destructive of its nrivileces, extinguishes its municipal existence, and is otherwise übve Ive of the ancient rights, proper ties, and liberties of the Corporation, and that this Common Hall determines to give the most earnest op oosiiion to the passing of such bill. . . . Resolved .unanimously —That by sweeping away the long-esta blished rights of the I ivrry. and transferring the funct , ons of that very numerous holy of 15,000 and upwards to the small number of 96 ~e r sons, a principle is adopted obviously at variance with the true spirit of relurm. Resolved unanimously—That the Livery are folly alive to the desirableness of reforming all abuses, and would gladly lend their aid to any scheme of reform really worthy of that esignation, but they can only const4 the present bill as one of inconsiderate chanze nee lessly and injuriously internering with long-established and valuable instittrions, the right use of the powers of the Livery never having een impeached, and it being indisputable that great services hay e been rendered by them to the country. Resolved unanimously—That this Common Hall approves of the proceedings of the committee of Liveryme I appointed at a meeting at the Guildhall Coffee-house, held on the 9th day of April instant, and hereby request the said committee to continue to ant on its be half, and to add such members of the Livery to their number as they may from time to time deem advisable. Resolved unanimously —That the petition row real be ad pted and signed by the Livery, and presented by Mr. Masternaan to the House of Commons, and that all the Members of the City be requested to support Its , rayer. Resolved unanimously—That the best thanks of this Common Rail be given to the It ght Honourable the Lord Mayor for his excellent conduct in presiding on this occasion. MEREWETIIER.

ACTION AGAINST THE VENDORS OF -QUACK MEDI CINES —A person named Holmes brought an action on Monday before Mr. James, assessor of Liverpool, of the Court of Passage, against the firm of Startup and Brown, whose quack medicine booth has been for some time established near St. George's Hall. It appeared that Holmes had obtained some medicine from the de fendants, which was to cure him with marvellous celc- ' rity, bat which on this occasion nearly killed the de luded patient. It contained se much mercury that salivation was produced to a fearful extent, and the plaintiff's mouth was in a state of incipient mortification when he called into his aid Mr. Hutchinson surgeon, of Parliament•street, who eventually succeeded in re storing him to health.

One of the cases at Brompton Hospital, which was brought under the notice of her Majesty, and which par ticularly attracted her attention, was that. of Corporal Joseph Caulisham, of the 2d Battalion of the Rifle Br'. gade, who received no fewer than Tour wounds during the brief.space oftinee ho was engaged on. the ramparts of the Redan, on the Bth Sept. last. The first wound was inflicted by a grape shot, which struck him on the right foot, and while binding up the wound he received a gunshot wound in the chin. Before he had scarcely recovered from the first effects of the shot another bail struck him on the shoulder, completely turning him round, and shortly afterwards a shot carried away part of one f his feet. In this helpless c indition he contrived to slide down to the bottom of the works, where he was discovered and taken to the rear. The case of Henry. Birland, a corporal in toe 33d Regiment, is very dia. tressing. While engaged in the trenches during the in clement w , ather both his feet were frost-bitten, which necessitated their being amputated. After a partial re covery he landed at Portsmouth; where it was found requisite, is order to save his life, that he should undergo a second operation, and on this occasion both his legs were amputated. This case did not fail to attract the attenti m and sympathy of the Royal party. One other remarkable case at this hospital was pointed out to her Majesty—that of Richard C thin, of the 7th Royal Fusi liers, who was wounded in a very extraordinary manner at the unsucce-sful attack upon the Redan. While scrambling up the ladder during the heat of the attack the Eeglish troope were met-with a murderous fire from the Russians. Cellin had just gained the summit when he was shot at by a man from above. The ball entered his stomach, passing in a tortuous direction through his body into his thigh. where it still remains. Occupying the next ward to that of Collin is the case of Jesse Luck hurst, of the 31st Regiment, for whom her Majesty ex preneied a great deal of sympathy. He received a wound from a grape shot, weighing 8 oz., which entered below the right eye, completely destroying it, and tearing away a great portion of the bone of his cheek. It then tra versed one Fide of the face and finally emerged at the ear. The jawbone received considerable injury, so much so as to affect his speech and mastication. In the same ward was pointed out Richard Dickens, of the 3d Buffs, who received two severe wounds in the Crimea, a shell bursting near him, a large piece from which struck him on the left leg which rendered amputation necessary. A. piece of the same shell also inflicted a sev ere wound in his face, which it laid open ; in addition to which he re ceived a gunsh o t wound. John Dryden, of the 11th Hussars, received no less than 31 wounds at Balaklava, and nag afterwards taken a prisoner by the Russians, who kept him 12 months, when ho was released. John Lucas, of the 4th Light Dragoons, lost his left arm at Ba!aklava, where he was taken prisoner by the Russians, and was also detained nearly a year. Her Majesty took particular notice of these cases ; but, perhaps, the most extraordinary case is that of Private Thos. Walker, 95th Regiment, who had been in hospital nearly 12 months, during which time he hail thirteen pieces of his skull re moved by Dr. Parry. He was wounded at Inkerman by the bursting of a shell, which carried away a portion of his skull, laying open the brain, and he was discovered some hours afterwards wandering about in a state of total unconsciousness. His recovery is considered very extraordinary. Her Majesty has seen him on every occa sion of her visits, and has sent him a present of 101. After her Majesty left the hospital she proceeded to the cl;apel bAouging to the barracks, which is now used as a inodel room. Here the royal party were shown a large number of models, and also several trophies taken during the Russian war. After spending some time in examining the collection in this room, her. nMajesty, Prince Albert, and the Prin cess Royal returoed to their carriage, and drove to the Strood station, which they reached shortly before five o'clock. They immediately re-entered the Royal train and left Strood fit the Bricklayers' Arms-station, re turning to Bu'Aingham Palace. lILIAMEN TARY DIVISIO Y. HOUSE OF COMMONS.--•APRIL 16.

Easter Term was opened yesterday with the usual formalities, and with some rather unusual share of local bustle, if not general excitement. The announcement that Mr. Justice Keogh was for the first time to take his seat upon the bench attracted an iremense, indeed an overfloWing audience, a great part - of which was composed of the fair sex. Upon the right hon. gentleman making his appear ance in the hall he was favoured with a reception which must have afforded ample compensation for all the abuse that has been poure,d •upon his head, and upon that of the GovernMent which appointed him. Mr. Keogh, in his judieial . robe's, instead of being a mark for popular odium, was cheered to the very echo by the dense crowd whom curiosity had attracted to the hall - to witness . his debut:lnt the manifestation did not end here • ,another ova tion awaited him in the Court . of d o mmon ) Pleas, and the moment he entered and wade his botir lie was greeted with a fresh cheer„ and the heartiness of which atoned in a great measure for the absence of dignity and the singular novelty of the- whole spectacle. The reception of the newly-appointed Attorney-General, too, was, if not so enthusiastic as that given to Mr. Justice. Keogh, extremely warm, and the learned gentleman was congratu lated on his elevation' by hi s p r of ess i ona l brethre n of all politico-religious creeds. THE ITOILDAR OF MRS. IOWA". The adjourned inquest was resumed yesterday, but the inquiry has so far fails ~to throw any In* terial light upon the affair, w*E' still remains, for anything that' is known of - the - real assassins, in volved in mystery. It may, be remembered that the witness on the opening of the inquest was a young girl,who was employed picking stones in the field at the moment of the murder. Her evidence is corroborated in all essential particulars by a second witness, also a young girl, about the age of 16. There is a slight discrepancy, however, in the testimony of the two ; for while the first, on seeing the murderers, observed to Mrs. Kelly, " Don't be afraid, ma'am," as though she were not aware of their intention, the second witness states that, immediately on seeing the assassins cloaked and masked approach their victim, all the girls working in the field, the witness among the num ber, ran off terrified. This was the only other witness examined yesterday except the doctor, who had no difficulty in accounting for the cause of death. The jury returned the following verdict:— " We find that the deceased, Sarah Kelly, came by her death on Tuesday, April 8, on the townland of Bat 'Merry, parish of Kilcormreagh, and barony of Clonlo nan, county Westmeath, from gunshot wounds inflicted by two persons unknown ; and we further find that the said two persons are guilty of the wilful murder of the said Sarah Kelly." The subjoined interesting report of the conclusion of the proceedings is supplied by the Freeman's journal : " Mr. Heron said, before the jury were discharged he wished to ascertain what course the coroner intended to pursue with reference to Mr. Strevens, against whom there was no charge. Was it to be presumed that he would be at once discharged from custody ? " The Coroner replied that this was not a matter for him at all. Ho had nothing to do with Mr. Strevens. He had come there to inquire as to the cause of Mrs. Kelly's death. No evidence inculpating any person had been brought before him, and, moreover, it was not by his authority Mr. Strevens was arrested. "Mr. Jullian, the Crown solicitor, said it was right to state that Mr. Strevens was in custody in the bride well under a magistrate's warrant. He was sure no dif ficulty would be experienced in seeing the documents. " Mr. Heron said he could net ascertain whether the warrant ha , l been issued on any information made. In a letter before him from the Crown Solicitor it was stated that he was not aware of an information having beep made, and that the persons in custody were only detained pending further examinations. " Mr. Jullian sail that was correct. Ho was not in Moate at the time of the committal, and the letter con tained the full extent of his inf)rmation. " A meeting of the magistrates subsequently took place in their private room in reference to the case of Mr. Strevens. Mr. Heron appeared before them on the part of that gentleman. An information was laid before them by Mr. Cronin, R. M , to the effect that he hoped to obtain in the course of the week information upon which the ma gistrates could act. It was directed that Mr. Strevens should to detained in ‘ custody until Monday next ; if evidence was not given against him on that day to war rant his further detention, he should be discharged. " During the inquiry before the c , ironer, a number of persons were in court by the direction of the police, to be examined, if necessary ; but, upon consultation between the magistrates and the Crown solicitor, it was not - de e med wivisable at that stage to go into any evidence having reference to the discovery of the murderers. ‘• In addition to Mr. Strevens, four other persons have been arrested on suspicion, 0 wen Kinahan, 0 wen Watters liese two pre tenants on the lands. James Bannon ( iephew of Kinahan), and Richard Wilson, a carpenter, who is a stranger iu the neighbourhood, and who states he is from Roscommon, and was making his way to Mul liegar looking for work. '- After the inquest I proceeded to visit the scene of the murder, which is about two miles from Moate, on the north side el the line of railway. On seeing the place, almost the first thing that suggests itself to the mind is, that a more exposed and, for the assassin-, adapted position could scarcely he selected fer miles round. The field, which is - very large, forms a side of a hill commandi , g an extensive view, e , pecially in the direction in which the murderers are said to have pro ceeded, and near the summit of this hill the murder was perpetrated. Standing on the spot, I could dis tinguish passengers in a train which happened to be passing on the railway. The road to Moate, two fields only intervening, was distinctly visible, as were also the cottages of tenants and persons who were in Mrs. Kelly's emp'oyment. rre idence, in conueation with which she had recently built extensive offices, was so near, that cattle could be seen in the yard outside It lies in the hollow on the road into Moate. The field is bounded on the east and west sides by new stone walls, in each of which there is a gate with a stile alongside, and on the other two sides by hedges. The murderers were first seen by a person who was in the field—and whose name, pending preliminary inquiries, I dO not consider it right to give —coming out of a small planta tion on a hill about a mile off. From their wearing cloaks, he says he took them to be women, and having lost sight of them when they descended into the hollow, he did not think it necessary to make any observation about them, not apprehending anything wrong. I may here mention that a pair of corduroy breeches has been found in the house of a suspected person, soiled with earth on one knee, and the cords of which the police said' corresp and with the marks. The murder appears not only to have been planned with great care, but perpe trated with extraordinary daring and determination. The disguise, dark cloaks, said to be snob as are usually worn in the diArict, and veils, was go perfect that of the twelve or :ourteen persons who were in the field not one can give the slightest cue to identification. With respect to the will of the unfortunate lady, the Evening Post says,— The executors appointed in the will of the late Mrs. Kelly are four in number—namely, M r . Wm . Digger Latouclie, Mr. R. P. Bailey (nephew of the deceased), Mr. Alexander Boyle, and Mr. Robert Orr. The will was opened last week for the purpose of ascertaining whether Mrs. Kelly had left any directions about her funeral ; and it was found thatshe expressed a desire that her remains should be placed beside those of her husband, the late Edmund Kelly, in Kensal•green cemetery, near LOndon. In.consequence, the body of Mrs. Kelly, after its arrival in Dublin on Saturday, from Westmeath, was placed in the care of an undertaker, who proceeded with it to Holyhead, en route to Kensal-green, where it was interred on Monday. The will is not to be read in de tail by the executors until after the inquest." MEETING OF CONVOCATION. Yestiriay morning both Houses of Convocation re assembled at Westminster by adjournment from the pre vious day. THE UPPER HOUSE. The Upper House assembled at 11 o'clock. There were present the Archbishop of Canterbury (who presided), the Bishops of Oxford, Winchester, Llandaff, Worcester, and other right rev, prelates. Soon after their lordships assembled, the Archbishop of Canterbury received from the Prolocutor of the Lower House a report which bad been agreed upon by the Committee of Gravamina, in reference to the question of Church rates, which matter was fully dis cussed on a previous occasion. The committee strongly reemninended that, as there was a bill on the question now before Parliament, it would be exercising a wise discretion not to persevere until the decision of the Le gislature should be ascertained. The ARCHBISHOP, after consulting with the bishops, stated that he had laid the matter before their lordships of the Upper House, who begged him to say that they fully concurred in the propriety of not at present making any formal report on the subject. The question would probably be settled by the Legislature in the course of the present ses,ion. On the retirement of the Prolocutor, there being no other business, their lordships adjourned. The Lower House was occupied with the re-considera tion of the report on Church discipline, referred back to them on the previous day. The house being unable to get through all its business asked and obtained leave to sit again to-day. Dean Milman has placed in the hands of the Prolocu tor the following notice of motion : "To propose a peti tion to the Upper House, praying their lordships to con sider the propriety of presenting an address to her Ma jesty for the discontinuance of the order requiring the use of the oecasional4rvices for the sth November, the • 39th qanuary, - and the 29th May. a. me; .. te a : .J... STRUCK BY A WATERSPOUT. The following interesting narrative is contained in a letter from Mr. Heatop, an officer, of her Majesty's ship Electra, son of the Hon. Mrs. Heaton, of Pias Heaton, Denbighshire, and nephew of Lord Henniker, and dated "At Sea, Nov. 22, 1855 :—". We left Melbourne on.the 12th of last month, and,- with our usual fortune, encoun tered very heavy weather during the whole of our pas sage ti New Zealand, : the sea running very high and wa-hing over us continually.' One day an enormous sea broke over ue, and the first thing' it carried away wag the second gig, completely crumpling her up and smash ing her all to bits. It then stove in the gunroom and captain's skylights, and washed everything off the tables in both placee, including a bookshelf an 1 a swinging tamp. They were at breakfast in the gun-room at the time, and in a moment officers, teacups, lumps of but ter, servants, and red herrings were'all floundering toge ther on the deck in three feet of water, and it was some minutes before the ship recovered herself from the shock. Eating our meals was a violent gymnastic exercise ; and, its to - writing, it Was out of the question. Ten days of this work brought us up to the north point of New Z land, and it took three more tO beat down the east coast. to Autkland, where we arrived on. the 25th ult., after the longest sea voyage we have made since our first arrival from England., We remained at Auckland for 18 - days. We sailed frOne Auckland on the 12th of the pre sent month, and have. been fighting with head winds ever since, with the exception of two days, when the wind favoured, us for afew hours, and, therefore, though we aro nine days out, we have only advanced 400, 'piles, and are still- 700 from Sydney. The day be fore yesterday we encountered -a most extraordinary danger—one that few ships have ever witnessed ; that we . were caughtias waterspout, The day had been squally, and we had been. compelled taw in* several time-, and therefoie we who were below were not surprised to find the ship heel gradually over; but when she went further, and the deok became almost perpen dicular, we could see that something happened beyond he common order of squalls, and I felt a sort of faint, sick feeling of anticipation and vague dread that almost tfled the prayer that rose to my lips. The suspense was horrid, and the dread of being strangled below by the rush of water gave me strength, and I climbed over the others and managed to reach the deck. There every thing was in confusion, and ao one was giving any intel ligible orders, and the ship was lying over on her broad side, with all of one side buried in the water, ropes and sails flapping about, and men standing aghast, with de spair in their faces. I noticed one man in particular, who was sitting on the deck, seemingly in a state ef utter idiotcy, with his hands clenched and his face livid, deaf to all that was passing around him. The sight of , o much anarchy restored my self-possession, and I began to drive the men to the ropes to haul down the after sails, and after a couple of minutes' work the ship slowly righted. The captain's gig was stove in by the water, and the davits (strong carved pillars of iron, as thick as my leg) bad been bent double by the pressure. It seems that a whirling mass of water had been sud denly seen near the ship, and before anything could be done it was upon her, bearing her down and whisking her round and under water, while the whirlwind by which it was, of course, accompanied and caused, pressed her over by the sails and increased the danger. It was indeed a fearful minute, and nothing but God's band could have saved us, for man was utterly powerless against the tremendous manifestations of our Creator's might. As soon as I could get by myself, I returned Him thanks for mercifully sparing myself and my shipmates, and saving us in our hour of extreme peril. This was really a very uncommon adventure, for, though ships frequently see waterspouts, it does not happen once in 500 times that it strikes a vessel."—Bury Post. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.

The General has resided in that district for above six months ; he ie a native of Strathspey, and was connected by marriage with the family of the late Sheriff Tytler ; and all these local claims, added to his brilliant services in India, and the marked distinction just conferred upon him by her Majesty's Government, were well fitted to call forth this public acknowtedement. The ceremony took place on Thursday —Ldinburgh Courant. A DEAF JURYMAN —At the Sandwich C linty Orilla, on Thursday, a journeyman carpenter, named Marley, rouelit an action against Rear-Admiral D'Arth, of Knowlton-park, for assault. According to complainant's statement, it appeared that on Sunday, the 9th March, the admiral and his household had been to Chillenden Church, as had also the plaintiff ; and all were return ing. The servants of the defendant were in advance, and the plaintiff joined them, and was in orderly and friendly conversation with a young female, when the de fendant suddenly rushed upon him, seized him by the collar, fl iurished his walking stick in a menacing man ner in his face, and almost threatened to annihilate him for daring to speak to his servants. The jury, having retired, returned with a verdict for the plaintiff. Upon the judge asking the foreman what damages they found, the latter did not appear to understand, and the judge on putting further questions found that the foreman was deaf and had not heard a word of the evidence. Ulti• mately it was arranged that the case should be tried by another jury at the next court.—SoutA-Eastern Gazette. LORD JOHN RUSSELL AND THE STATE EDUCL TIONISTS.—We offer our warm congratulations to the friends of freedom of education on the signal overthrow and utter rout sustained by Lord John Russell and the State Educationists in the House of Commons on Friday last. la the most crowded house of the session, am d extraordinary excitement and interest, a division was come to beyond all that we could have hoped. Finding the practical and executive part of his plan demolished by Sir James Graham on the previous evening, and evidently condemned by the feeling of the house, Lord John on Friday withdrew all that part of the plan— namely, the last seven resolutions out of the twelve, though after a feebly-laboured defence of them. Hap pity, he persisted in pressing his first resolution, having received the promise of the support of the Government to that alone ; and he intended, if he had carried that, to propose other four resolutions, though modified ac cording to the amendments of Sir John Pakington and Mr. W. J. Fox. The house, therefore, went to a divi sion on the first resolution, which was —" That it is expedient to extend, revise, and consolidate the minutes of the Committee of Privy Council on Educa tion." Upon this motion Mr. Henley's amendment, "That the chairman do now leave the chair," moved with a view of defeating all the resolutions at once, was put, and on this, their strongest vantage ground, the united forces of the Government, Lord J. Russell, Sir J. Peking ton, Mr. W. J. Fox, and all the sections of State E luoa tioniste, were defeated by a great majority. To add to the emphasis of the decision Mr. Henley himself had twice offered to withdraw his amendment, partly because he thought the first resolution unimportant, and partly out of courtesy to Lord J. Russell. But such was the determination of the house to inflict a decisive and memorable defeat on the education schemers that they refused to allow the amendment to be withdrawn. Thus Lord J. Russell has brought the educational cam paign, for which he had made such great preparations, and which he opened with such solemnity and such high promise, to as unfortunate a termination as any upon record. After a single day's debate (to use Mr. Glad stone's figure) he abandoned more than half his army, in the hope of saving the rest ; he withdrew the shattered remnants under the protection of the Government guns; he took post on a vague resolution, which enabled him to rally (with the aid of the whippers in) State Educa tionists of every colour and a considerable part of the Whig rank and file; and, in spite of all, his camp was stormed, his colours and guns taken, and his army driven into the sea. We are disposed to take up the song of Miriam. Compul-ory education has thus received its death-blow, just as it emerged from the womb of specu lation into existence as a Parliamentary object. This miserable bantling of Lord J. Russell has been strangled in the cradle. The English spirit and English sense of the House of Commons, rallying after a wretched dream, in which the doctrinaires sat upon it like a nightmare, have burst the bonds which the Philistines were weav ing about it, "as Samson his green wither." Secular education and local rates may also be said to have been demolished by this crushing division. Indeed secular education was seen to be the necessary consequent of loca and compulsory rates ; and onithat account, as .much as on any other, the House of Commons regarded Lori - J. Russell's plan with indignant disapprobation.-- Leeds Mercury. AK.4IMY f •yws ‘T. 4, . THE MILITARY BOARD OF INQUIRY. [A. part of the following appeared iu our impression of yesterday :---] The Board of General officers reassembled this morn ing at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, at the usual hour. ' The proceedings each day attracts a large number of the public, and amongst them are a great number of ladies, especially within the bar. These latter, probably from past experience, and not within to miss the pro-. ceedings, from being personally acquainted with many of the officers connected with the inquiry,' finding the form of proceeding adopted by the : Cenrt.to be exceed ingly tedious, have provided themselves with an amuse ment, in the shape of " Knitting, netting, and crochet," and other lady-like_accomplishments of the present day. Lady Chelsea, and many other ladies, displayed great industry in these branches of profitable amusement daring the greater portion of the day.: Lord Lucian inquired if the monthly. return of the baggage animals, in the Crimea, had been obtained from the. War-Office t The Judge-Advocate-General said that an application hal been made for them, but the answer was that there were no such inturna. Lord Lucau said it was to be regretted, -and he sup posed he must do his best without thenA: Sir A. Woodford said that he believed there were such returns, but that they were in the Crimea. . The evidence,of Sir R. Airey was then preceeded with. . lie was examined by Col. Tulloch. Sir R. Airey said that , it was the custom for all orders , to be obeyed, and he presumed they were acted upon with reference to the disposal of the skins of dead animals. The skins of the various animals that died and , were slaughtered were no doubt used in covering the living animals, in accordance with orders, until other materials' ?/sze- , obtained. -These—skins were used 1111 , --Tr *he. camp, but whether they amounted to 3,000, the number of horses that died and were slaughtered, he could not nay. 2.. 6d. per skin was paid for every horse's skin properly cured. With reference to his former evidence relative to the Commissioners not having obtained suffi cient inf ,rmation before making their report, he observed that he had no wish to Censure that report. He was examined as to matters unconnected with his depart. ment. He answered the question& relating to his de partment as fully as possible, and referred the Commis sioners to the proper departments for answers to the others. If the Commissioners had returned to the Crimea from Constantinople, where they bad gone in con •,e, mecca of the cholera, they could have obtained the in formation required fr3m the other departments on the spot. He had no idea at the time the Commissioners were in the Crimea that their duties referred to anything more than that inthcated by the blue book, viz., an in quiry into the commissariat supplies. The answers which he gave to their questions relative to his depart ment he considered sufficient and complete. The first huts from England arrived on the 16th December, and others on the 25th, and four more vessels arrived with huts before the end of that month. He was charged with their distribution, although there could be no doubt that in strictness it belonged to the commissariat de partment. This was the first time regularly•built houses had ever been supplied to an army. It was nothing more than hutting materials sent out in a new form. At the proper time he should enter fully into the duties of the quartermaster-general's department. The Commis sioner's did not act wrong in examining his department relative to the dates of the buttine . ; but he thought it would have been better had the Commissioners gone a little further and examined Captain Keen, an engineer officer, vho was sent, out specially in charge of the huts. Ho thought without reference to his papers that Lord Lucan's statement before the board that the cavalry up to 25th of January were not to be supplied with huts at that time, because they were required for the army in front, was substantially correct. The great pressure for them, and the hardships suffered, were principally then in front, where the men were fighting day and night, and Lord Raglan's desire was that every ' thing should first be done for the sick, and then the in fantry division in the front. He was far from thinking any blame was attributable to Lord Lucan, or the cavalry, for not providing shelter for the cavalry. If there was a doubt in the Commissioners' minds ou whom to throw doubt, they might as well have cast it on one department 113 another. When the Commissioners c-nn menced their inquiries lie had no idea they would have taken a retrospective view in order to censure any of the officers in command, but that it was with a view to take measures for the future, and prevent a repetition of what had occurred. He could not recollect a conversation between himself and the Commissioners as to the pro priety of examining Lord Raglan personally. By General Peel—The Commissioners never intiinate,l to him that any want of promptitude or ingenuity had been displayed in providing shelter for the cavalry. Had they done so he could have given more specific answers to the questions put to him, and such as would, he believed, have removed from their minds any such impression. By the Judge-A dvocate•General--The cavalry could not he removed to Kadikoi before Dec. in consequence of military considerations between the allies. The French horses were not sheltered until after those of the Em,- list], and not until just before he lett the Crimea. He knew one French officer who lost 70 horses out of 120. By Lord Lucan—His answers to the Commissioners' questions left the Crimea after General Simpson had the command of the army, and su'asequent to the Commis sioners leaving the Crimea. Sir Richard Airey then withdrew. Col. Gordon was then called and examined by Col. Tulloch. He recollected being examined by the Com missioners in the Crimea. He gave them no information o f what was done on the order issued at L Ord Lucas's request that an engineer officer should be placed at his disposal to provide shelter, because they did not a 4( for it. He gave no explanation why the ground had not been broken in the middle cf December, the order al luded to having been issued on the Bth and 12th of November, beeau , e it was not asked for. He was asked no question about hutting, and consequently he gave them no information respecting it, thinking they did not ' require it. Colonel Gordon then retired. • Col. Tulloch called attention to a letter th had ap peared in the Times, signed by Col. Yorke, denying that the sth Dragoons were in the Crimea at the tine the Commissioners had stated. Col. Yorke, of Ist Dragoons, who used crutches, was then called, xnd was examined by Col. Tulloch—lle sail that the document handed in was a monthly rct.iro, dated let Oct., 1854, and signed by him, but it was net signed on that date. A portion of the re2;ir4ent was at Balaklnva on the Ist, but that portion which he com ►nanded did not arrive until the sth. That, di , crepancy arose from the return, although dated the let, not being made up until the end of the month. It was a return for the month of October. General Peel—By what authority do you produce the return ? Colonel Yorke—By the full authority of the War office. General Peel—Will yen put in that authority Colonel Yorke—l have already done so. The witness was then further examined with reference to other return., and in addition said he had written a letter to the TI;711e8 in consequence of finding it had been stated that his regiment was in the Crimea whe❑ it was not. He had not stated in that letter anything in consistent with the return which was kept open till his landing for his signature. [The witness then read the letter in question, which gave an account of his proceed ing with his regiment, and the loss of 124 horses in their transit across the Black Sea.] Colonel Tulloch—Then the War-office is not to sue poee that your return is correct, when it states that on the lst of October your head-quarters was at MAl(lava? Col. Yorke—lt was kept open for me under ♦ery pe. culiar circumstances because there was no other person to sign it. I was at sea at the time with the head quarters of the regiment. The President expressed the regret of the Board that Col. Yorke should have addressed a letter to the Times relative to these proceedings. Col. Yorke—l did it in consequence of what had ap peared in a leading article in that journal. Col. Yorke then retired. Lord Lucan was then called and examined by Colonel Tulloch—He complained of the animadversion of the Commissioners in their report with respect to the de ficiency of forage, although he was not named. His object in complaining of it was to show it was incorrect, and he was prepared to substantiate that assertion. Page 20 of the Report, relative to the loss of the horses, was not an animadversion on his conduct because it made the per centage of the loss muelh. than it really was. He charged " maign y notin on the part of the Coritnis:,ioners, reference to the particular part of their repress inbut with every regard to the total incorrectness of the fig t a ir t es suggestion p o a f r t c ofol Colonel thing the Commissioners had stated. report., page 37, relative to the Griffiths for providing shelter for the horses was a v ery animadversion indee d, and it showed that h e an d severe ot h e r officers were deterred from doing their d u t y f rom violence on his (Lor d Lunn'') part. By the Judge Advocate-General—He believed Lord W. .Paulett and Col. Hodge were present at the time Col. Griffiths referred to, when he stated the conversa tion passed between them, and the threatened arrest was su pposed to have been made. By Col. Tulloch— The placing an officer under arrest b 3 a necessary act. FL did not complain of the r ecital of Col. Griffiths' statement in the report, but it wasithe unfair inferenceswhich the commission had drawn from it. He was prepa re d t o g i ve C o l. G r iffith s ' s t a t e . mint relative to the threat of arrest in the moat positive manner—threatening to place an officer under ar .•est for whit Colonel Griffiths complained of vas likely to deter others from making similar suggestions, but he denied that he Lad made such a threat. He (Lord Luca.n) complained of the Commis sioners receiving, as a fact, the statement of an officer, when they had an opportunity of examining other wit nesses as to its truth. He conceived the charge of want ,f promptitude and ingenuity," displayed in providing shelter, applied to him and not to Lord Raglan. It might have applied to Lord Raglan, and if it was meant to apply to him, he (Lord Lucan) had to complain of the Commissioners not putting the matter in a clearer form in their report.. He was not prepared to say there was any want of promptitude or ingenuity in doing shelter ~ T .NM w ..,, ~.: his haying the command of the Leavy, brigade, and that it was his duty to do the best be could-for his men and horses. - . The Board then adjourned for a short period, Oa their re-assembling the evidence of Lord Logan - was pro ceeded with. He said it would be no anirnadversion'on - liiin if it WWI meant to apply' to Lord Raglan and officers - superior to witness, but it certainly was if it applied to the officers under Lord Raglan, non-commissioned officers, or men. It was impossible to read that part of the report now alluded to without believing that it was a serious ani• madversion on the - cavalry, an I as such it had been con sidered universally by the public. - In reply to a question from Col. Tulloch whether that portion of the report which stated but one fifth of the number of men only were employed in taking down the sick and bringing up provisions was an AM• madversion, his lordship said he supposed it meant that but one-fifth of the men were so employed, awl that fouillifthe were disposable for for warding shelter, whereas the real fact was that but a few men were'available for the work, and in many regiments there were no men available for it. Colonel Tulloch proposed to refer to certain returns made by Colonel Hodge and Colonel Mayow of thip available men. Lord Lucan said that he was prepared to show that these returns were incorrect. Lord Lucan=-It was hardly to be expeeted that he could now produce accurate . returns of the available men and horses for this work. Col. Talloch was proceeding to examine Lord Limn relative to the disposition evinced by the Commissicinere in their report not to- state anything dero. gatory to the cavalry which they believed the exidence did not warrant, on which Lord Lucan said that ml the objeo) - of tit* ArvNioe4on way to explain awarai - charge of 'r " malignity" against the Commissioners, he expressed his regret at having said anything of the kind. He was led to say so from the extraordinary ambiguity they had indulged in, in drawing up the report ; and the errors in the returns. He did not mean to say that the Commissioners were answerable for any false returns that might have been furnished t , ) them, but he thought they had applied to the wrong officer for them, and that they had neglected sources from which they might have had it. His correspondence would show that these returns were incorrect. Colonel Tulloch then asked for returns to be pro duced showing the actual number of available men and horses for this work during the period named in the Commissioners' report. . - General Peel—To whom are we to apply for these returns ? Co). Tulloch—l presume they can be had from th• Crimea. Lord Lucan—l doubt if then that the returns will be found to be accurate. His lordship then proceeded to point out what he considered the incorrect statementa of the report relative to the non-erection of huts before the middle of Jan., the distance of the stores frora the camp, &c. He said that long before that period many huts had been erected and used as hos pitals, notwithstanding many of his officers stated the contrary with regard to the hospital huts, in the evidence before the Commissioners, and he read an order of his, dated 27th January, wherein it was stated that the hospital huts were completed by that time. He withdrew much of his objection to that part of the report since it had been stated that the want of shelter at this period related more to the hutting of the men than the horses. By the marginal note in the report it had reference to the horse?. Col. Tulloch—The marginal note was not authorised by the Commissioners. It was a mistake on the part of the printer. Lord Lucan, in continuation of his evidence, said that he considered the inquiry of the Commissioners was to have been confined to the Commissariat supplies, and that they very much etceeded their duty in going beyond it. He thought the Commissioners had nothing to de with what had passed between hirioself and Col. Griffiths. The Judge-Advocate•General—ColonelTulloch, will you point out in your instructions the passage that pro. eluded you from inquiring into the conduct of any officer ? Col. Tulloch—l clnsider there is nothing in them that would justify our inquiry into the conduct of any officer. Gen. Peel—You considered that the Government would not have acted on your report without further inquiry ? Col. Tulloch—Yes. Gen. Peel—Do you consider that inquiry should have been male before your report was published ? Col. Tulloch—l can't answer that. Col. Tulloch to Lord Lucan—Do you not know that her Majesty's Government have expressed their approval of this report, and do you still consider that the Cora missioners exceeded their duty Lord Lucan—l can know nothing of any approbation or disapprobation of it by the Government. If they have expressed their approbation of it, I think they have done it in -onsiderately and hastily. Colonel Tulloch—Whose duty do you think it is to provide shelter for cavalry horses in the field ? Lord Lucan—The Comm trider-in-Chief of the army, if he can do so. G!neral Peel (to Col. Tulloch)--In what shape, by whom, and on what occasion was the approbation of the Government expressed with reference to the report ? C ionel Tulloch--By Lori Panmure to Sir John 111`.1Neil and myself. It was suosequently printed, which, I believe, also shows it was approved of, and then laid on the table of the House of Commons. Lord Lucan then proceeded with his evidence, an 1, in answer to other questions frini Col. Tuiloch, said that he considered it was evally tile duty of the Quarter master-General as well as the Commander•in-Chief to provide shelter for the horses, whether in villages or in the field—if he could get it. It was implasible to say that the want of promptitude and ingenuity applied to the Quartermaster General. He might have done his duty, and yet sufficient shelter could not have teen pro cured. lie attributed the loss of horses mainly to the commissariat transport duties rather than to the want of shelter, and under such circumstances no promptitude on earth c , old have saved them. C 1. TuHoch then informed Lord Lucan he had no further que3tioos t) put to him, an' his Lordship re tired. The Court then adjourned till to-morrow, when Col. Pottinger will he ex tinined by C.d. Tulloch. Tne EArl of Cardigan was present for the first time to-day, during a portion of the day's proceedinga, and whilst Lord Lucan was under examination by Colonel 'full och. LOYAL HUMANE SOCIETY. The eighty-second anniversary of the Royal Humane Society was celebrated last evening at the Freemasons' Tavern ; his Grace the Duke of Wellington inithe chair. There was a very numerous attendance of the friends of this admirable institution, including Sir Robert Peel, M.P., Colonel Baillie, Thomas Hawes, Esq., Captain Fishbourne, Marshall Ha'l, Esq., M.D., Shirley Wool mer, Esq., Dr. J. S. Christial, Joseph Charlier, Esq., Andrew Caldecott, Esq., Dr. M`Cenn, and other gen tlemen who have taken a deep interest in promoting the operations of the society, which has so many and such just claims on the liberal spirit and benevolence of a phi lanthropic public. After the usual loyal toasts were duly honoured, Sir ROBERT PEEL proposed the health of the Presi dent of the Institution, and took occasion to enlarge on the beriefite which the society had conferred. During the past you. 162 cases of immersion, attended with risk to the lives of 193 persons, had been brought under no tice ; 25 of these were cases of attempted suicide, 180 were suecessfully treated, the other 13 having been past recovery. Since the establishment of the institution, the number of lives saved and restored in this country alone had been upwards of 30,000, thereby affording practical evidence not only of the succes s , b u t o f the correctnes s and activity with which the committee bad prosecuted the views of the founders of the association. During the same period the society conferred, as rewards of gallantry to those who had risked their own lives to ,are the lives of their fellow-creatures, 16 honorary silver medals, 13 honorary bronze medals, and 21 testi monials. The hon. baronet observed that none but those who had been placed in similar circumstances of peril with himself, could appreciate the value of an in stitution like the Royal Humane Society ; and he ear nestly entreated for it a liberal share of countenance and support. He gave them, with all earnestness and sincerity, " The Health of their President, the Duke of Wellington," who had taken so warm an interest in be nefitting the condition of the institution. (Cheers.) The Duke of WELLINGTON acknowledged the compli ment, and, in suitable terms, proposed " Prosperity to the Royal Humane Society." The toast was drunk with great enthusiasm. The medals and testimonials were then presented to the Rev. Walter Thursby ; Mr. Francis Robert Ransome; George Guest, a member of the Irish constabulary force, statione I at Cork, whose gallantry deserved special commendation ; Alderman Hill, of Tamworth ; Mr. Robert Mason, jun., of Guildford ; Captain Pengelley, R.N., and Mr. C. N. P. Portman, of H.M.S. Colossus ; Mr. W. H. Wilkes, jun., of Worcester; Commander J. R. Woodruff, Admiralty Agent an Gibraltar; and Mr. John C. W. Ellis ; all of whom had been instrumental, under circumstances of great personal peril, in saving the lives of several fellow-creatures. The case of George Guest, who in one day bad rescued no less than three persons from watery graves, excited considerable interest. The Duke of Wellington complimented him on his bra very, and said that it was only equalled by the modesty and great propriety of demeanour which he that even ing exhibited. amountng been o r f ee d e o i o v / e . d w . ere announced Subscriptions to the t b h a e v by the secretary Some minor toasts, including " the health of the Se cretary," followed. The dinner and wines were unexceptionable, and the musical entertainment, conducted by Mr. Hobbs, was rendered additionally attractive and agreeable, by the great vocal ability of Miss G. Cole, a young artiste of oonsideptble proinifie. V.-
