The evidence which Major Maxwell had given showed there was no founda tion for such charge. The prisoner would not set him self up as an altogether innocent or injured man ; he should always feel shame and regret as to the occurrence. of that night, but though he (prisoner) might have been blameable for folly and impropriety, it did not, therefore, follow that he should be subject to the heavy penalties consequent on the charge now before the Court : many officers of maturer age, and honoured and esteemed both in military and social life, might have been ruined outcasts if some foolish prank or culpable excess, committed at the age of twenty-four, had been dealt with as a grave breach of duty as an officer and a gentleman. It was quite clear that Lieut. Perry and he (prisoner) were playing in prisoner's room on that night, that Mr. Perry left prisoner's room, and resumed i he ne d (prisoner) ftol thisle followed againh i Le, occurred,that th they returned thathe and (pri soner) was found bleeding in Mr. Perry's a pair of errysroomfrom wounds inflicted by Mr. Perry y, heavy candlesticks. Under these circumstances, Mr. Perry being o f a c h o i u m r s t a u r t n i d r, l e r b a e c r r a e m s t e , a a m N l vi a tn w e a s i s tr a i (din (prisoner). Nothing could palliate the violence and could not excuse himself without ac cusin g ggaitnhset ad mittedly(pri- soner),hsiemutence used towards him (prisoner), but the assertion that he had drawn it on himself by unendurable and per severing brutality, in word and deed. He (prisoner) was sorry to hear Mr. Perry say, there had been ill feel ing, for there had been none on his (prisoner's) part to wards the witness. Major Maxwell had proved that day that he (prisoner) had lived on terms of intimacy and friendship with his brother officers, and though he (prisoner) might have given temporary offence by a fool ish joke, he had trusted no permanent ill will resulted. [Here the prisoner entered into a dissertation of the fur ther portions of Lieut. Perry's evidence, to show that it proved there having been perfectgood feeling between both Lieut. Perry and himself until the immediate moment of the fracas w hi c h h as occas i oned the present inquiry.] almostt thath e theret he dressmaker, had wh o be e n whole e Hest nfat eh gooder Major, night,feel i andnt o g showthat a t e h an a r t t eh s ge h am e r d p de r ud o r i v t nh e d ge He al so a ll u d e d , though but slightly, to the evidence of foulest word used, she might have mistaken the word " beggar" for a w or d w hi ch no gentl eman or officer ought to have used. He then dwelt up on the injuries he had received at th e h ands of Lieuten ant Perry, u and ea to the character whi c h h e (prisoner) had receiv ed from Major Maxwell, and after s t at i ng that no one could tmakoreenrpeglarceet, andthan thhiamteseulfehthdaio antsrsuacchefuilanguage occurrence should have been used, he left his case with confideace in the hands of the Court. At the close of the inquiry Colonel Garrett said the conduct of the officers of the regiment was now under the consideration of the highest authorities, and that - he had great pleasure in bearing testimony to the harmony in which the officers of the regiment had lived together. [This painful inquiry being now concluded, it is only right we should state that our correspondent has had ne communication directly or indirectly with Lieutenant Perry or Mr. Darvill, the town clerk of Windsor, who appeared as his legal friend. We make this re mark because Lieutenant Greer's friends have presumed to say " the press" has been bribed on behalf of Lien. Perry. From all that our correspondent has heard, and from the tenor of Mr. Greer's defence, " the moneyed influence" appears to be on Lieutenant Greer's side.] ISLE OF IWIGHT .- TO BE LET FUR - N\ I` LIED, a MAR N E Rt.,SIDEti , E of the First Clasq. situated in a fine Lawn opening on to the Beach, at WEST COWES, and `Quarnanding sea ' , Flews unequalled in extent and beauty.

PUBLICATIONS. What it is to wait for Austria the history of Europe tells. To wait for Austria is to invite demands for subsidies —only to meet treachery and betrayal in return. To wait for Austria is to encourage the sham o f p ro f ess i ng to b e in arms for freedom, and to betraY it to the meanest and most impotent of despotisms. To accept the aid of the ruler of Vieiina is to court company with the tyrannical gaoler of Italy and Hungary and the spolia tor.of Poland. To secure this costly, disreputable, and dangerous companionship, we let our country slide down from the high, and noble, and impregnable position of a champion armed for truth, justice, and principle, to become a mere slash buckler dOing the selfish work of dynasties instead of the noble duty of peoples. Whilst waiting for Atistria—who waits for Prussia—who waits for Rnssia—we let, slip, too, the golden mo ments in which we. might take the only sure step for closing the war. The - best way of obtaining peace (said Lord Fitzwilliam most truly last night) was by•striking a serious blow against that power which had brought on the war. To. hear a Whig nobleman talk in this fashion shoWs that the opinions we have reiterated for, moths past are not confined to ultra-Liberals, or to*. 'men not in the Legislature. But we can have no such blow—we can have - no such peace—because Lords Aber deen and John Russell lean to, Austria. In th e hands of the Coalition it has come to this, that England and France dare not alone carry out a war they have de clared against a despot whom Turkey has beaten single handed.

" Horse Guards, July 17, 1854. " Sir,—l have heard with the deepest regret of the loss which you and the army have sustained by the death of your distinguished son, Captain J. A. Butler, of wounds and fatigue at the siege of Silistria. "During the whole of that memorable siege your son displayed very rare qualities, combining with the skill and intelligence of an accomplished officer the intrepidity of the most daring soldier—at one moment gaining the confidence of the garrison (over which he had only the authority of a very young volunteer) by the example of his personal valour ; at another, prolonging the defence of the place by the prudence and firmness of his counsel ; and on all occasions infusing into those around him that spirit of heroic resistance which led to its triumphant defence. " I deeply deplore your affliction in losing such a son, but your sorrow is felt by the country, the army, and the Sovereign. "The Queen had recognised his merit by placing him in the Guards and conferring upon him army rank, trusting that he might pursue a career of which all were so proud, at that time not being aware of the dangerous state of his health. " The blow is unexpected and most severe, but I trust you will bear up against it by the fact that your son's services have been most valuable to his country, in pro moting the success of a just war ; and I hope I shall not give you pain by alluding to another son—Captain H. T. Butler, of the 55th Regiment—selected for em ployment on the Quartermaster-General's staff when the army first embarked for Turkey, solely on account of the ability he had shown in his studies at the Royal Military College. " I trust that the well-earned fame of one son and the rising merit of the other will, under Providence, be a source of consolation to you at this moment of extreme affiction.

The debate in the Commoni, and the discussion in the Lords, last evening, on the Object of the grant of three millions for 'the further prosecution of the war in the East, brought out in a very strong light several strange matters. • The disunion in the Cabinet, Joe Hume's ap proval and admiration of a coalition, the ungovernable restiveness 'of certain Government supporters, Mr. Cob den's absurd theories—all came under the notice of the wearied legislators last night assembled at their posts. In illustration of Cabinet bickerings, the two houses were indulged with •the • different views entertained by the opposing sections of one of the same Administration upon the chief point of their policy. If there be one matter on which Ministers ought to be unanimous, most decidedly that question is the amount of support, moral and material, they are to afford Turkey in this emergency, and the nature of the conditions by which we consider that the integrity of the Ottoman Empire can be secured. Yet here they are almost in open enmity —an enmity that is only restrained by their mutual determination to sacrifice every consi deration to insure their • continuance in office. Whilst the members of the House of, Lords were engaged by a repetition of the . Aberdeen mania for peace, the Commons were roused into a momentary en thusiasm by the apparent determination of the hon. member for London to wage the conflict manfully, till an honourable peace shall render further prosecution of hostilities unnecessary. The Premier devoted but five minutes to his proposal to the Peers for a grant of three millions, though Lord John Russell condescended to enter into further details, and to offer an insight into his own ideas upon the strife now agitating Europe. The apparent candour and explicit explanation of Lord John afford us no better hope of vigour in . the prosecution of this war to an honourable and consequently a glorious -termination than the studied contempt and unprece dented brevity of Lord Aberdeen. Both are members of one Cabinet, pledged, at any rate, to mutual support, even at the sacrifice of individual honour and consistency. Moreover, the member for London is given to sudden impulses and strong ebullitions of feeling ; and careful observers of this legislator's conduct are but too well aware that these outbursts pass away much more speedily than those difficulties and anomalies which form the actual causes of their manifestation. In one of these displays Lord John last night availed himself of certain points to create a diversion, in order to escape examination upon other very important matters . to which he would have found reference rather inco me ' venient. Such were his comments On the bravery of the Turks, the extent of the forces we .have sent to the seat of war, and the union now existing between the two greatest powers of Europe ; when Lord John knows very well that it has again and again been demanded why the energetic operations of the Ottoman army have not been seconded by the 'active support of our own levies, why the imposing fleets and the large armies that we have sent from our shores have been doomed to inglorious inaction, and why the union of England and France has not been crowned with those triumphs which have invariably marked the progress of their ancient hostilities ? The people of both countries are anxious to learn why their sailors and soldiers, now pledged tosasdefinite object, have not gained those sue cessesswhiCh never failed to crown their efforts-with glory in combating one against the other'—why, in fact, in their hostility should be so'much,more fruitful'in great results than their friendship promises to be ? In the hesitation and contradiction of his " - satire/4, Loi'd:john gase but too glail4.eiridence .

A reference to our report of the debate will furnish our readers with this most extraordinary conduct On the part of the: leader of the Lower House. In this unlucky accident Lord John Ruesell has committed an error which we believe that neither he nor the Cabinet of which he is a member can by any possibility over come ; and in ranging from vigorous opposition to humiiiating submission, in the course of six hours, he has too plainly revealed the terrible dangers of the mo ment. The Cabinet is in a fearful state of disorganisa tion, and Lord John .Russell, by hie proceedings last night; plainly revealed that disorganisation to the Legis lature, and through them to the country. In vain did Lord Palmerston endeavour to explain colleague. Neither his away the discrepancy bet ween t h e earlier statement an d the subsequent denial o f hi s ' genial flow of humour n or hi s Prof i ciency iu the ar t o f debate was equal to such a t as k .

The Committee of Governors h ad full con fidence in Mr. Cooke, and after a short disc ussion as to d at in all details, the following resolution was proposed and una- nimously agreed to : " Referring to the high testimonials produced by Mr. Weedon Cooke, when a candidate for the office of house surgeon, ten years ago (namely in 1844) : the efficient manner in which he discharged the responsible duties of that office for upwards of three years, and afterwards as medical .officer for the diseases of women and children for two years ; subsequently as assistant-surgeon for up. wards of throe years, and latterly as full surgeon, this committee sees no ground for differing in opinion from the previous committee, who appointed Mr. Cooke to such responsible offices, and no reasons for accepting the resignation without inflicting great injustice on Mr. Cooke, and depriving the hospital of a most valuable officer, who has gained the confidence and approbation of the poor who seek medical relief at this valuable institution." The resolution was ordered to be entered upon the minutes of the hospital, and a copy to be immediately transmitted to Mr. Weedon Cooke, with a letter expres-_ sive of the continued confidence of the Board. Some formal business was then transacted, and a vote of thanks having been voted to the Chairman, the pro ceedings terminated.

The Premier made one of his tieual small, speeches; well described by Lord Fitz= william immediately - immediately - afteriVaideUAßß :a .speech. " which conveyed scarcely , a single iders'to -the ; Parliament to which it was addressed." It was a s harrangue very much in the style that was to be expected from the man who made it—meagre, sulky, 'bloodless, and urisatiefitetery- There waif no ehadow of manly outspoken fritekness, such as the constitutional - chief of a cnnetitutional , coun . - try might be expected to address to Parliament towards the close of a session% rinsing which he had been sup ported with great liberalttOs with funds for a war which his incompetence is belieiedste have brought about, and at a moment when he was asking for a new lease of na tional confidihice, and new millions from the public funds. His speech was utterlffildelAnte of all states manlike breadth, all generous feeling, all comprehensive grasp, in short, destitute of each, and every of those characteristics which it, should have exhibited. The chief meaning that may be gleaned from it with anything like clearness, is -this :---" Hand over r you money, and let me close Parliament, and then, with the concurrence of -the other Powers; I will show you how we will settle. the Russian war.",.

She has more than once declared that, although the principles that her Majesty has laid down and the object that her Majesty had in view met with her full approbation, she did not despair of the Emperor of Russia evacuating the Principalities and agreeing to fair and equal terms of arrangement, so as to.maintain the balance' of power in Europe ; and lately she has sent a message, Which has been published in the newspapers within these few days, asking Russia to evacuate thee Principalities, asking her to fix a term for that evacuation at no remote time, and transmitting also to St. Petersburg the protocol of April agreed to at Vienna between the Four Powers, in which it is declared that it is the object of the Four Powers that Turkey should be attached to the system of Europe, that that empire should form part of the general balance effectoF Powers f afonl p wl Russia.o eea w Nirn s e ah : sy e, evasive.

Here, then, we have all the explanation we . need ask. It is plain enough to the humblest understanding. Aus tria has her despotic ends to serve, but does not at pre sent see quite clearly how she may best work them out. Of course she waits—and as she waits we wait—and more than that, we help to keep France waiting too. We went into the war nominally to help Turkey, who was said to be weak, against Russia, who was declared to be strong. We 'were anxious to support civilisation against the inroads of the Barbarian Despot of the North. For that purpose the Coalition drew funds from the people of this country, and an army and two fleets manned from the ranks of the people were sent out upon the errand of saving the Turks and vanquishing the Rus sians. Before these forces had come in contact with the Russians, the troops of the Sultan had beaten back the in vading hordes of the Autocrat, and it needed only that the troops and fleets of England and France should do the work they were nominally sent to do. But in place of action we have delay ; instead of blows we have negotia tions ; instead of going forward we hang back; in place of despatches telling of victories we are offered estimates demanding more money. To the repeated inquiry, what tdo all these delays meant 'there _cornea at last the . . . NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Vulture, "6, paddle-wheel. steam-frigate, Captain F. H. H. Glasse, left her moorings at Sheerness yes terday shortly after neon. .- The:following supernumera ries have taken passage in .her, by Admiralty orders : Henry Hutchings, master, .to join the Gladiator ; A.

Buchanan, son of the British Minister at Copenhagen, also takes a passage, as an honorary member of the gun room mess, to Copenhagen. Mr. E. B. Walker, clerk of this frigate, received an Adniii-alty appointment, as eerk in the Admiral's-office at Mount Wise, Devonport, on Sunday morning last. • The appointment arriving here too late for him to close accounts, .he proceeds out . to the Baltic, and an appointment of another clerk will be at the disposal of Sir Charles Napier, on her arrival out. Mr. James Shepherd, one of the younger brethren of Hull Trinity-house, proceeds in the Vulture as Baltic pilot. Mr. Milbank,- Trinity pilot, goes with her as far as Orfordness. Centaur, 6, paddle,, is under the steam-basin shears, getting out her old boilers, and will instantly redeive new ones. The Beagle, screw steam gun-boat, Lieutenant-Com.; mender Bore, at Blackwell, will be taken dowia to Woolwich f r o be fitted forthwith for sea. The Fire Queen steam-yacht, Master-Commander Paul, returned to Portsmouth from Calais yesterday, and, after coaling, left for-the Channel. Islands, we be. lieve, with the Governor. . The Melampus store-ship, Master Commander John Jackson, has left Sheerness, in company with the Rha damanthus, for Portsmouth, taking there machinery for the Colossus and Curacoa. The Jason, screw steam-ship is at Blackwell, fitting for the conveyance of the. Artillery. force, horses in cluded, under orders for the East. The Medway steam-vessel is loading with siege guns at the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, for service in the Baltic. The Bombay Indianian and' Seuthampton American line of packet ship arrived at Spithead yesterday from the Thames. - • The officers and men detained at sheerness for at tempting to break the blockade in the Baltic were turned over from the Waterloo yesterday to the Devonshire, Lieutenant Commander Lloyd. All have cabins ap• portioned them. A mail for the Vulture, weighing over 2 cwt., arrived at Sheerness at 6 p.m. yesterday, which, unfortunately, was about six hours too late to be 'put on board. The constant complaint of the Post-office authorities there is that they never get apy official information from the proper department of the time of departure of any of her Majesty's ships ordered to take out mails. The mail re ferred to will forthwith be returned to London to take another route. A large number of letters lay at Sheer nessTeady to be made up for the Vulture, but, her time of departure not being known, they were not sent on board, and must also be sent back to Lond on. The' mail for the Baltic fleet, via Belgium to Dantzic, will be made up and despatched this evening. Thirty thousand blankets for the transport service are to be sent into her Majesty's dockyard at Deptford. .

In the afternoon she was taken to the works of John Penn and Son to be fitted with engines of 160-horse power, on their patent trunk prin ciple. The engines will be ready on board for being worked this afternoon, the fitting occupying little more than two working days. At 2 p,m. yesterday the engines, boilers, shafting screw, and many of the pipes were in their proper places. The Royal yachts Victoria and Albert, Captain the Hon. Joseph Denman.; the.

" This officer had so greatly distinguished himself, and had, in all lie had done, shown so much prudence, courage, and ability, that his death cannot be too deeply lamented." "I beg to enclose the copy of a further despatch from Omer Pasha of the Ist instant, in which your grace will see with satisfaction that the services of the late Capt.

On the Court re-assembling this day, the prisoner proceeded with the examination of the witnesses in his defence ; he called only Major Maxwell, not putting either Surgeon Webb or Adjutant M'Alister on their oaths, although their names were handed in at the commencement of the inquiry. Major Maxwell deposed that, during the five years prisoner had been in the regi ment, he had lived in general harmony with the officers, that he had never known prisoner to be drunk or unfit for duty through drink, that he (witness) had repri manded "in Lieut. Perry's presence"- -[lt hill be re membered that Lieut. Perry only deposed that Major Maxwell might have done so, but lie was not aware of it.]—officers against whom he (Lieut. 4 Perry) had com plained, that Colonel Garrett had reprimanded, and most severely, one officer against whom Lieutenant Perry had complained, forbidding such officer ever again to enter Lieut. Perry's room, by day or by night, since which time, he had reason to believe, all annoyances had ceased. This (in reply to prosecutor) was shortly after Mr. Perry joined the regiment. It was then in the Linen Hall Barracks, Dublin. To his know ledge Captain Nicholas was not in the habit of ill treating young officers on joining the regiment ; indeed, he was exceedingly kind towards them. Would say that Captain Nicholas never played practical jokes on the young officers—(a pause)—that is to the best of witness's knowledge. He meant to say so far as he knew. Here, in reply to the court as to who was the next witness, prisoner said he world not further take up the time of the court fry calling further evidence, but that he would request an adjournment to two o'clock to complete his defence. The Court was then adjourned to two, when, on its assembling, a letter from Lieut. Perry to the President was handed in, of which the following is, we believe, the substance :—The writer informed the court that, having heard from a friend the purport of the replies given by Major Maxwell to the questions relative to certain por tions of his (Lieut. Perry's) cross-examination on some points no way connected with the charge before the court, he had to express his regret that he could not be allowed to be present, as he (Lieut. Perry) could have refreshed Major Maxwell's Memory on sundry points of which he seemed to be singularly forgetful. The defence was read by a Mr. Bullock (a London lawyer, who announced himself as being a relative of the prisoner). Tho Court had previously stated that the de fence could be read by a friend, but not a legal friend. It was as follows : Mr. President and Gentlemen—l have first to thank you for the patience and attention with which this accusations in quiry has been conducted. I have to meetfaarctcuunse and which place in jeopardy my character,tk trial l J had the full man by the world and the _press. myself I was held up to opportunity of speaking f the world as a convicted ruffian. an. Before any crueltynyother atarid bunal I might well d read the effects of the _ i un fairness, but here my case wil i l_be determined n the ading the evi- calm spirit of honour and to tru i j truth ireudiceccor or cla r. I dence only, with out heed have been anxious to make that evidence as comprehen sive as possible, both for the character of myself and my oppor regiment, those hostiles o he m r have sought every tunity to attack my .eofficers. There are two charges against me, of blows and words, both arising ou t of the same transaction, and de pending nea rly on the testi mon y of the same witness. lam not going to impute to Lieutenant Perry delib era t e perjury, to ru in me ; nor do I believe Mr. Perry capabl e o f thi s. Though no forbearance has been shown to me, I will not follow this example ; but I would ask the. court to bear in mind the very peculiar circumstances under which Mr. Perry gave evidence against me. There are the strongest inducements fur any one in his situation to colour the case as strongly as possible against a prisoner, to repeat everything favourable to himself, to forget everything adverse. A. man's memory, where there was drink, high play, boisterous jocularity, loss of temper, serious violence, is not to be trusted, even by himself, much less against a prisoner, who cannot be heard to give evidence. It is not on such testimony, particlarly if, in many essential points, contradicted by the other evi dence, that such charges are to be sustained before acourt inertial, whatever authority may be thought elsewhere to supply for violent abuse of British officers, and myself in particular. Prisoner then proceeded to the following effect :—[the opening portion of the defence was so diffuse that we have been obliged to condense it so as somewhat to confine it to the matter at issue.] The Court had both the written minutes and the demeanour and words of Lieut. Perry before it, and itswas for them to determine whether there was no wish on his part to press hardly against the prisoner in matters having no immediate reference to the transaction before the C oHr,. that as to his (prisoner's) sobriety on this night. WT.!. Doss was asked explicitly whether, in his oju soner was fit for duty as a soldier ? Surely this Pi : n e st r io i n might have been answered yes , or uo ; but grquPerry THE PENINSULAR MAIL. SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY EVENING. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam ship Madrid. has arrived with the Peninsular mails. Her dates are—Gibraltar, July 14 ; Cadiz, 15 ; Lisbon, 19 ; Oporto, 20 ; Vigo, 21. The Madrid brings 36 passengers, 1,675/. in specie, and a full cargo of lemons, tomatoes, onions, wine, &c. When the 'Madrid left Vigo it was openly spoken of by the military and inhabitants generally, that the governor would declare against the Govern ment the following day. At Oporto disturbances had broken out, in con sequence of the rise in price of corn, caused, it was supposed, by the great exportation to British ports, but they were stopped by the authorities. A woman, who, it appeared, had made a regular trade of destroying illegitimate children at Villa Vico, had been committed on a charge of murder ing nine infants. - At Lisbon exchange on London was quoted at 54l at 90 days. Inscriptions, 38. Her Majesty's steamer Prometheus was at Lisbon. The story of the capture of a brig by Riffian pirates, as related by the master of the Mary, is believed to be imaginary, the Prometheus not being able to glean the slightest clue to such an adventure.

WICK .HERRING REPORT. (For the week ending 22d of July 1854.). This week has been one of singular unproductiveness along the whole north-east coast, and presents :returns which will bring the aggregate catch to little more than an eighth of that of last year, and a sixth of the average of the last ten years. Here the total oatch for the week is not above 30 crans, against 1724 for the cor• responding period of 1853, the entire catch of 1852, 1853, and 1854, up to this date being : To 22d July, 1852 4660 crane. 1853 6725 ~ 3/ I, 1854 620 ~ About 400 boats were at sea last night, and this morning there are some faint indications of an improve ment, several boats having from 1 to 4crans ; about 20 crans in whole were caught. Yesterday a few crane were landed at Lybster, one curer having 6. At lielmsdalo 47 crans were taken ashore. Here the whole fleet will proceed to sea on Monday, weather permitting. The tides will be favourable. No contracts for cured fish have been made in this district this week. We learn from Stettin that a cargo of superior Lewes herrings had fetched 13 dollars. At Ilaufourgh last sales were above 30 'necks. No inquiries after barrels or salt. A vessel laden with salt, from Liverpool to H e l ms d a l e, went ashore last ni g ht i n Sinclair's Bay. She is the James Clark of Belfast. We have letters from the Aberdeen and Banff coast per steamer to-day. At Cullen the boats averaged 4 a cran on Tuesday, and 11 on Wednesday. At Port, knockie on Saturday there was an average of 5 craw ; highest 14. The fish were of superior quality.
