THE WAR. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Royal Albert is to be put out of dry dock No. 3 on Friday noon next. Calcutta, 84, Captain J. J. Stopford, remains in Ply mouth Sound. Colossus, 30, screw, Captain Spencer Robinson, will go to Spithead on Thursday. Indefatigable, 50, Captain Hope, flag ship of Rear- Admiral Hope Johnstone, says an Edinburgh paper, "sailed on Thursday afternoon from Leith Roads, for the Downs and Devonport, having received order unex pectedly by telegraph. She got 50 or 60 men while here, mostly landsmen, the herring fishery having taken most seafaring people to distant parts. Unfortunately, her sudden departure has prevented any of them offering, of which there was a good prospect." Meander, 44, Captain Baillie, it is said, is ordered from Plymouth Sound to the coast of Scotland, to raise men. The steam-sloop Janus is ordered to have her sails unbent and stewed away. Her commander is on sick leave, and she is not expected to leave unless ur gently wanted for particular service. The crew are to be transferred to the Algoa, on her arrival from the Baltic with the Russian prisoners taken at Bomarsund. The Diligence, transport, passed the Nore from Wool wich in tow of the steam vessel Monkey, on Sunday last, at 12.45 p.m., outward bound with victualling stores and munitions of war. APPOINTMENTS. George Durbin to be Lieutenant to H.M.S. Curacoa . A. H. McDowell to be Midshipman to H.M.S. Nile ; J. P. Holton to be Cadet to H.M.S. Nile. THE GUN-BOATS. The Wrangler, new screw steam gun-bo a t, passe d t h e Nore on Sunday last , at 1 . 25 p.m., for sea. The Beagle, new screw steam gun-boat, from Wool wich, arrived here on Monday last, at 11.30 p.m., in consequence of a court-martial which is to take place to-day on board the flag -ship Waterloo, on one marine and a seaman, for insubordinate conduct towards a cor poral of marines when on duty. HOMEWARD BOUND SHIPS FROM THE BALTIC. The steam -vessel Lizard, tender to the 'Waterloo, Lieutenant Christopher in command pro tern., left Sheerness on Sunday last at 11.35 a.m. She proceeds to Orfordness, to cruise between that part of the coast and across to the Galloper light-vessel, being a distance of about twenty-six miles, for the purpose of looking out for the homeward-bound ships from the Baltic with Russian prisoners of war, she having despatches for the commanding officers. THE RUSSIAN PRISONERS. None of the Russian prisoners have yet arrived. It was a false report last week of the arrival of the Terma gant, 24, screw. She passed Elsineur on the 30th ult. The prisoners brought down by the Hecla, 6, paddle, Captain Hall, were composed of the Finnish guard, sharp-shooters, some of the line regiment, artillery, guard of invalids, with three women, eight children, a dog, and a cat. VICTUALLING THE RUSSIAN PRISONERS. The scale of ♦ictualling the Russian prisoners of war on their arrival here is to be two-thirds of A.B. allow ance, except in bread ; that article of food is to be served out to them in full allowance, viz, lib. of biscuit, or 1 of soft bread. Their articles of weekly food will be as follows :—Biscuit or soft bread, sugar, tea or chocolate, oatmeal, mustard, pepper, vinegar, fresh meat daily (when it can be procured), or fresh vegetables, salt pork or salt beef, peas, flour, suet, and currents or raisins, when fresh meat cannot b© procured. There are at pre sent only three Russian fishermen on board the Devonshire, and they express themselves highly satisfied with their rations ; they declare they eat more meat in one week where they now are than they could obtain in one month when they were at home at their avocations as fisher men, and they would be truly happy to have their families to share their present fare with them. Stores of every description for the purposes of cleanliness, such as washtubs, soap, towels, &c., will be liberally served out to each mess ; also mess traps for use. THE WOUNDED LIEUTENANT OF THE HECLA. It will be remembered that in Captain Yelverton and Captain Hall's gallant affair at Elinesg, the first lieu tenant of the Hecla, Mr. Crewe Read, lost his eye. That gentleman stayed over the affair at Bomarsund, and was then sent home, being ordered perfect rest with the view of saving his other eye, the sight of which is endangered by sympathy. The gallant officer has arrived at Dover, but we regret to find that he returns a lieutenant, his meritorious conduct not yet having met with its reward. Lieut. Read's was almost the first blood drawn in the Baltic by the enemy. A NAVAL DESERTER FROM THE SPITEFUL. Edward Buck, a young man about 25 years of age, described in ths charge-sheet as a ropemaker, was brought before Mr. A'Beckett yesterday, at the South wark Police-court, charged with being a deserter from her Majesty's steam-frigate Spiteful, now on service with her Majesty's fleet in the Baltic Sea. The Magistrate said he should hand him over to the inspector, who would take him on board her Majesty's ship Crocodile, off the Tower, where he would be dealt with by the naval authorities in the usual way. The prisoner was then removed in custody. THE HOLYROOD. By a letter received yesterday from Copenhagen, via Hamburg, the Holyrood, hired steam transport, P. C. Lovett, commander, arrived there on the 29th ult., at 2.30. Several of her officers and crew, with the passengers, had been laid up with severe bowel complaints, all of which, under medical treatment, were set right again, although some of them were severely:shaken by it. The Holyrood left Copenhagen on the morning of the 30th ult., and proceeded according to orders. PEMBROKE DOCKYARD BATTALION. The Pembroke Dockyard battalion, having received their new uniform, have been inspected by Lieutenant- Colonel Laing. The brigade consists of six companies of artillery, numbering about 700 rank and file ; it was put through a variety of evolutions and manceuvres, all of which were executed with rapidity and precision. Lieutenant -Colonel Laing, and also Majors Child ay.d Bonniwill, expressed their extreme satisfaction at the discipline attained by the battalion. MILITARY. Orders have been issued for 100 men and two officers of the 97th and 50 men and two officers of the 88th to embark at Portsmouth to join the service companies of their regiments in Turkey. Orders have been sent out to British North America for two companies of Artillery, now in garrison at Mon treal and Quebec, to return to head-quarters at Wool wich forthwith. They aro to bring with them their horses and equipments. A party consisting of twelve sappers and miners of the Hon. the East India Company's service left Chatham on Saturday last for Gravesend, and embarked the same day for a passage to Madras. They had completed their course of instruction and education in the various duties and branches taught at the royal establishment, under Captain M`Kerlie, Royal Engineers. The depots of the 43d, 74th, and 78th Regiments seat large detachments on Saturday morning last, from Chatham to Gravesend, where they embarked in the freight ship Balcarres, for a passage to Madras, en route to join the head-quarters of their regiments in India. A large detachment from the depot of the St. Helena Regi ment left Chatham at the same time for Gravesend, to embark for a passage in the Balcarres to St. Helena, to join the head-quarters of the regiment stationed there. It is not generally known that the depot of the St. Helena Regiment is stationed at Chatham, and that the non-commissioned officers and men enjoy the privilege of being allowed to join any other corps after five years' service of a good character, and that the non-commis sioned officers are permitted to be borne as supernume raries on the strength of the regiments they join, until a vacancy occurs for them i❑ their rank. Several old and deserving non-commissioned officers of the Royal Artillery have been placed on the strength of the invalid battalion since the 23d of last month, and having previously attained the rank of sergeants, they have been appointed hospital sergeants to the Ordnance hospitals at Dover, Sheerness and Chatham, and other local hospitals. They of e b t r o receive d 4d. per diem extra pay, with one ration thee. and meat, free quarters (one room), fuel and light, whole considered. eqr.iva lent to ls. extra per day. They will also have the advantage that theirpohsioptal sergeant service will con tinue to count for Corporals have been pro moted in their places in the battalions.

THE VERDICT ON LIEUT. PERRY. ( From the Times.) It is with a feeling of th e mo i s n t d p ig a n in at fu io l n r: t gr ba e t t, w l e argely tempered with the haveprofoundest Lieutenant Perry. The military judges of young this day to record the sentence of the of ficer,coibmaatrtialupon justice,solemn o h b a l v i e ga n ti o o t n b s bound to as ad th m e been their office inis w te e r re im b p y ar t t h i ° al afraid, despite of the evidence which was laid before them, and despite of the evidence which was not laid b e f ore them, but which, from the nature of the case, might ob viously have been produced, to bring in a verdict of guilty upon three of the charges which had been brought against him. This most scandalous verdict—we blush to write it —has received the sanction of the General-Commanding in-Chief. Since the days of the infamous Jeffreys in England there has been nothing like this trial. Revolu tionary France, with Fonquier Tineille as pursuer, might, no doubt, show plenty of analogous cases; but these are precedents on which men in less frenzied times would scarcely venture to rely. The mischief that has been done -and that is the worst of it —can never be undone, what ever remedy may be applied, or extorted by the public in dignation. A cour t of fifteen officers has been found not unwilling to bring in a sentence of condemnation against an unoffending man upon evidence so monstrous, and a Commander-in-Chief to sanction the verdict. We speak advisedly when we say that in no other court known in these realms could such a verdict have been obtained on such testimony. Odious and disgusting as the task may be, we will in a few words recapitulate the leading points of the case, that the conduct of the court-martial and of Lord Hardinge may appear to be—just what it has been. Lieutenant Perry was charged nominally upon four points—substantially on three. The first two related to the commanding officer of his regiment, Colonel Garrett. The first point is this,—The young man asserted that upon one occasion, when he went to his colonel with a complaint of the ill-usage he had received at the hands of the young ruffians in the regiment, his Colonel called him " fool" for his pains. Upon this point this precious court martial have found him " Not Guilty." They could do no less. Now, if Lieutenant Perry spoke the truth, Colonel Garrert is guilty. He is not only guilty o: the original offence, but he is doubly guilty, inasmuch as he has solemnly sworn that he did not use the erithet in ques tion. Such, then, is the result as affecting the command ing officer of her Majesty's 46th Regiment, By the ver dict of this tribunal, miserable as it has shown itself to be, Colonel Garrett is left in a predicament upon which it would be unnecessary for us to enlarge. But if the subal tern has incurred a sentence of dismissal from the army, what does the commanding officer deserve? The second charge against Lieutenant Perry also affected Col. Garrett. Lieutenant Perry asserted that the Colonel had received from him a letter of complaint for the General of the dis trict, upon which he did not afterwards act. Col. Garrett denied the statement upon oath. So far there is assertion for assertion. Perry asked to be examined on oath, but his request was refused. Garrett's statement was, that he remembered nothing about the occurrence. He produced other officers— he might, no doubt, have produced every officer serving in India at the time of the transaction—to say that they remembered nothing of it. That is the pre sumption in his favour. Now for the presumptions on the other side. There was a violent probability that such an affair might have taken place from the ruffianly tone of the regiment ; but, as this may be treated as somewhat too general, there is a more stringent presumption, which was brought out in the evidence of an officer of unimpeachable character, but who was soon hustled out of court. Captain and Paymaster Corcoran proved the points which appear in the following extract of his evidence. Under other circumstances we should apo logise for the length of it, but at present we would most anxiously avoid even the appearance of exaggeration, al though, Heaven knows, it would be difficult indeed to exaggerate the infamy of the whole proceeding : " Prosecutor said, whatever might have happened, the Court could take cognisance of no circumstance which had happened more than three years ago. " Deputy-Judge-Advocate—The n , Captain Corcoran, please confine yourself to within three years. " Witness—l may state that practical jokes were not practised when I was present, as it would not be wished I should know of them ; but I can say they are common in the regiment, and that young officers have often come to me to complain of them, and ask my advice what to do under the circumstances. I may name NET.. Perry, Mr. Knapp, and Mr. Dunscombe—l will also include Lieuten ant Lennard. I recollect Mr. Perry coming to me fre quently in the Linen -hall Barracks, Dublin, and men tioning some very harsh and iMproper conduct to which he was subjected. I advised him, I think, on the three or four first times to bear it patiently, to put up with it, and take it in good part. He did so. I mentioned to him at the same time that when officers junior to him joined, they would have their turn, and he would be let alone. (Laughter.) Re came again and mentioned about being beaten with an umbrella, his room tossed upside down, and I think, the last time, that he was made to go through the sword exercise naked before certain oaicers of the 21st Regiment and the servants of his own regiment, as well as officers. I then pointed out to him his mode of redress, and referred to page 115 of the Queen's Regulations and the first six paragraphs :--That he was to report it to one of the field-officers of the regiment in the first place, and if ho did not get satisfaction from him, to report it offi cially to Colonel Garrett S that is, to putit in writing, to place it on record ; if the annoyance was still persisted in, he was to report it to the General of the district. I think he did as I desired him, for he came to me one morning, I think the day following his having written th e letter—he came t o m y o ffi ce an d tod me several of the offi cers were endeavouring to prevail upon him to withdraw 'she letter, at the same tim e m en ti on i ng th e names of two or three f those officers who so wished him to withdraw the letter. Mr. Perry replied to the solicitations of those officers that ho would not withdraw the letter, but he would say nothing about it if the persecution and annoy ance ceased. I at the same time cautioned him, as he seemed to feel the last attack upon him so acutely, never to join in a practical joke upon any young officer, which he, of course, promised he never would do. I endeavoured to impress this on the mind of every other officer who came to me with complaints of the sort." Now, is it to be supposed that Lieut. Perry, more than a twelvemonth ago, got up this scene in Capt.Corcoran'soffice, under the influence of a kind of second-sight, to help his case before the court-martial at Windsor the other day ? Col. Garrett had but to throw the letter aside, or to destroy it; and then to suffer the transaction to fade from his recol lection. The members of the Court at Windsor believed his denial—at least, they brought in a verdict of guilty against young Perry on this point. Will they find through. out the kingdom 12 English gentlemen—not officers, but gentlemen—to concur with them in their verdict ? The third and fourth points are easily disposed of. They refer to ono Captain Nicholas. The substance of the two charges was, that young Perry had asserted that this man Nicholas was in the habit of playing the bully towards young officers. Now, if anything is clear throughout the whole transaction, it is the ruffianism of the great bulk of the officers of the 46th as regards these "practical jokes." The course adopted by the prosecutor was to produce these young men one after another, who all duly swore tleat they did not remember anything about such transac tions, or anything to the disparagement of Nicholas. It was by a perfect miracle that young Perry was enabled to put any of them to shame, for what can you do with men who simply assert that they " don't remember ?" One of these men, however, a certain Lieutenant Waddy, who swore as hard against Perry as any of his brother officers, was suddenly asked if he acknowledged his signature to a certain letter which was handed to him for his inspection. He could not deny it. The letter was read, and it then appeared that the miserable lad who had just been white washing the captain upon oath had just before written to young Perry, saying that this chivalric and spotless officer —this model of lofty deportment and mirror of courtesy — had at the mess -table of the 46th roared out to a young officer present "to hold his tongue for a d—d son of a b—h of an ensign." This Nicholas was the man whom the Windsor court-martial have, by their sentence, declared to be free from the imputation of playing the bully to young officers. Lord Hardinge—w e blush to write it—has con firmed the discreditable verdict. We aro much mistaken in the temper of our countrymen and in the spirit of Englishm en if this matter is allowed to rest here. It cannot be - permitted that any officer who wears the Queen's uniform should from that mere circumstance remain an object of general contempt, and that the pro fession of arms Should be permanently disgraced. This act of injustice—of foul and crying injustice—is the symptom, not the disease. The truth is, that the moral condition of the officers in the l an d service. is at the lowest possible ebb. But there is worse behind than mere vulgar riot and profligacy. The proceedings of the Windsor Court-martial, and the sanction afforded to them by the General-Commanding-in-Chief, constitute a far more ap palling revelation than the extravagant blackguardism of a single regiment. That young Perry has been most wrongfully and unjustly condemned we think no sober man who has perused the minutes of the evidence can for a moment doubt. It is to be regretted that the two Houses of Parliament are not sitting at the present mo ment, for it is to them we now look to redress this gross injustice. Whatever other remedies Mr. Perry may be advised to adopt in order to put his persecutors to shame, it is clear to ns that the opinion of Parliament should be taken upon his case as a point of the highest public import ance. The struggle is no longer against insignificant per sons, such as Garrett, Nicholas, &c., but the administra tion of the army in the persons of its highest functionaries is called in question. How can the Queen be deceived into the idea that gentlemen will continue to wear her uniform when their honour and positionin society can be imperilled before tribunals such as the ono which at Windsor has just brought disgrace upon itself and upon the British army? Better would it have been that all officers on the Court martial and all officers in the 46th Regiment had been per mitted to throw up their commissions, than that this in justice should have been perpetrated upon a young and hum'ole subaltern. There is a strong vitality in the prin citsle of justice. It may for the moment be trampled under foot by the strong heel of power, but it cannot be quenched. We have done our best to ward off this reproach from the British Army ; and now we commit the case of Lieutenant Perry into the hands of his countrymen.

THE HAMLET OF RATCLlFFE.—Yesterday afternoon the number of deaths in the hamlet of Ratcliffe was con siderably on the increase, there being no fewer than ten cases of Asiatic cholera in that district since Sunday morning. Mr. Edward Pemble, the beadle and inspec tor of nuisances, removed the whole of the bodies to the dead-house under the Blackwall Railway arch, near the Stepney station, where they will remain until the de ceased persons can be properly interred by the parochial authorities. One man, named William M'Cann, aged 21 years, died on board the monkey boat, called the Live and Let Live, of Staffordshire, now lying in the Regent's Canal, Commercial-road basin. A mariner named Richard Holman, aged 27 years, died on board the collier brig Beale, of Cumberland, moored off Stone stairs, Ratcliffe-cross. Three persons died in one family on Sunday, at No. 3, Three Fox-court, Brook-street. The other victims expired in the course of Sunday in various parts of the parish from the same epidemic. The board of guardians have been unremitting in their exertions for the relief of the poor, and every night Mr. Pemble, the constable, is engaged with a large body of men in washing and cleansing the over-crowded courts and alleys with water, for the purpose of checking the ravages of the disease. WHITECHAPEL UNlON.—Yesterday morning the board of guardians for the Whitechapel Union issued the sub joined notice to the parishioners :—" St. Mary, White chapel.—Notice is hereby given, that all persons in this union attacked with diarrhcea, or looseness of the bowels, will be supplied gratuitously with proper medicine, on application to any of the medical officers, and at the dispensary in Lambeth-street, Goodman's-fields, which is -open day and night for that purpose. The surgeons duly appointed are—Mr. Champneys, 5, Church-street, Mileend New-town ; Mr. Burt, 15, Union-street, Spitaffields ; Mr. Payne, 13, Mount-place, Whitechapel road ; Mr. Richardson, 12, Church-lane, Whitechapel ; Mr. Seguerne, Whitechapel, and Mr. J. Garman, White. chapel. Advice and medicine can be had at all hours at the Eastern Dispensary, Great Alie-street, Good man's-fields. The police at the Leman-street and Spital square stations will supply cholera medicine to the poor on application to the officers on duty." There have been several cases of cholera at the workhouse, Whitechapel road, and other parts of the union. ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE-EAST.—Several deaths have oc curred in the district of St. George's-in-the-East, and yesterday forenoon the following placard was circulated among the poor :—" St. George's, Middlesex.—The poor are informed that upon their being taken with bowel complaint immediate assistance will be rendered, with out any parish order, by the parochial medical officers, who reside as follows :—Mr. Wells, 15, Cannon-street road ; Mr, Tripe, 7, King's-place, Commercial-road ; Mr. Boore, 132, St. George's-street ; Mr. Reigate, 4, Colet place, Commercial-road ; Mr. Pittard, 39, Well close-square ; and Mr. Doig, 1, Globe-street, Wapping A warm bath is also kept in constant readiness at the houses of the medical gentlemen referred to." There are ' several dangerous cases in the cholera hospital, 4, Bath terrace, Back-road. ST. BOTOLPH, ALDGATE WlTHOUT.—Yesterday morn ing three deaths from Asiatic cholera were registered in the district of St. Botolph, Aldzate Without, Upper East Smithfield. A German, named Schiller, aged twenty-one ; a female, named Donovan ; and a man, named George Green, died in Rosemary-lane, Minories, after a few hours' illness. Several fatal cases have occur red in Royal Mint-street and Tower, East Smithfield. Mr. W. Perry, the inspector of nuisances, has received orders from the board of guardians to have all the streets, courts, and alleys thoroughly washed every night after eleven o'clock from the mains of the New River Com pany, which has given great satisfaction to the inhabi tants. A few deaths have been reported from the river side, among the mariners. THE LONDON HOSFlTAL.—Yesterday morning three females died in the cholera ward of the London Hospital from choleraic diarrhoea, after the usual treatment adopted by the medical officers of the institution. The number of applications by the out-door poor for relief has much increased during the last few days, and the cholera ward which is at the upper part of the building is crowded with dangerous cases of Asiatic cholera. Additional medical gentlemen have been appointed to wait upon the patients during the prevalence of the epidemic. ST. MATTHEW, BETHNAL-GREEN.— Late On Saturday evening, Mr. W. Baker, the coroner, held an inquest at the Bricklayers' Arms public-house, Collingwood-street, Bethnal-green, on view of the body of R. Cooke, aged ten, who died of Asiatic cholera, at No. 30, Summer ford-street, Waterloo New Town. The deceased was the son of a mechanic, but the children were generally in good health until Sunday last, when deceased was seized with violent vomiting and diarrhoea. A medical gentleman was sent for, but the deceased died before his arrival. The houses in that locality were badly drained, and many privies were in a neglected condition. The surgeon said deceased died of Asiatic cholera in its worst form. There were local nuisances in the district which would account for much of the disease in the parish, which was densely populated. The other members of the family were not ill. The coroner having remarked on the case, the jury returned a verdict of " Died from Asiatic cholera." A great number of deaths have taken place in the over-crowded parts of the parish, which is insufficiently drained, and in many places the inhabitants are totally without sewers. A meeting of the ratepayers is about to be held for the purpose of adopting measures for the sanitary improvement of the district, of which due notice will be given in printed handbills. CHRIST CHURCH SPITALFIELDS,—SeveraI deaths were reported yesterday is the vicinity of Christ Church, Spitalfields, SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF A FRENCH LADY AT BAYS WA TER. Yesterday morning an inquiry was held by Thomas Wakley, Esq., the Coroner fur the Western division of Middlesex, into the circumstances upon the death of Madame Harriquet (not Madame ..A.nnele Anno, as stated in the previous report), The investigation took place at the Princess Royal, Westbourne.grove, and excited much interest in the neighbourhood. The Coroner inquired with great care into the reports which have obtained circulation, that the deceased lady came to her death by foul means. Ho stated that it was the opinion of Mr. Rugg, the surgeon, of 17, Newton row, who had treated the case with great skill and dis cretion, that there was no ground for such allegations, but that death had been caused by extravasation of blood to the ventricles of the brain. If the jury wished a post-mortem examination of the body to be made he would at once order it, but he quite agreed with Mr. Rugg in the conclusions at which he had arrived. The jury said they bad every confidencee — in Mr. Rugg's judgment, and at once returned a verdict in accordance with his testimony. It appeared from the evidence that Mad. Harriquet was a very eccentric and excitable person, and that she was possessed of property to the amount of 30,000/. or 40,0001., for which there are no claimants, as she has no relatives or friends. Mr. Rugg and other gentleman who were in attendance at the time of her death, found bank notes and other available securities to the extent of 16,0001., the bank notes being stitched in various parts of her dress. Two or three years ago she took a large hotel in Paris, and more recently was engaged in the dress-making and millinery business in Park-street, Grosvenor-square. It may be added that the box which is represented to have been placed on the back of the deceased, and which led to the supposition that she died a violent death, is a light box, weighing not more than eight or ten pounds, and that as the deceased was lying on the floor, the box, in all probability, fell upon her, from a chair on which it had been standing.: tiara, INVENTION.—The enormous quantities of scoria east aside daily from the blast furnaces of the iron works of the South Wales coalfield are, it appeai'a, about to be turned to good and useful account by the ingenuity of Dr. Smith, of Philadelphia.

Massey Edwards, an Italian courier, was charged with stealing 4/. 103. A fashionably attired, genteei.looking woman, about 30 years of age, not possessing any great personal attrac tions, who described herself as Mrs. Jane Skirving, stated that ber husband was in Canada, where she was about to join him. On Saturday morning, between 11 and 12 o'clock, she made some purchases at Covent garden-market, and was about to return to her residence at 7, Royal Avenue-terrace, Chelsea, when the prisoner accosted her, observing, "that it was a nice morning." She replied that it was, and he walked by her side, chatting to her, through St. James's Park, in the course of which she happened to say that she had a letter to post. Prisoner said he should have much pleasure in doing it for her, but as it had not a Queen's head on it he walked with her to her house in order to have that deficiency supplied. Having arrived there, she gave him the postage stamp, and while he was putting it on the letter she had occasion to leave the room, her purse being at the time upon the table, containing four sove reigns and a-half and some silver. - Upon her return he put on his hat and left the house, and immediately after wards she missed 4/. 10s. from her purse, money which she had llad sent to her to go to Scotland. Prior to his departure prisoner had written down his address,—" 11, Stanhope-street, St. Martin's-lane," and she immediately sent for a cab, and, accompanied by her landlord, went in quest of him. She could not find any " Stanhope street, St. Martin's-lane," and was walking through St. Martin's-court when she saw the prisoner in a tavern, laughing and joking with some other men. She imme diately called him, when he came, and she asked him for the money he had taken out of her purse. He gave her 1/. 175., requested her not to say anythin g , and invited her to accompany him to th e h ouse o f nfrien d in Pall-mall to get the remainder of the money. He then got into her cab, and upon their stopping at 15, Pall mall, wanted to go into the house alone, but she in sisted upon accompanying him. He knocked at the door, but the gentleman for whom he inquired was not within, and they returned to the cab, when her landlord, who was with them, seeing a policeman, called him, and she gave prisoner in charge. In reply to questions from Mr. Taylor, the chief clerk, Mrs. Skirving said that her only object in taking the prisoner home was to get the postage stamp for the letter ; that he was only in the house a few minutes, and that she had stated all that had occurred there. Mr. Broderip inquired how she could possibly be so indiscreet as to enter into conversation with a stranger, and take him to her own house in this way ? Mrs Skirving replied, that in the course of conversa tion he told her that he was an Italian and acquainted with five different languages. She expressed " a thirst for knowledge," and asked him if he was a teacher of languages. He replied that he was not, but kindly of fered to give her some lessons, which would be of use to her as she was going abroad. It was in consequence of that he pencilled down the address she had spoken of. The prisoner, in broken English, said, that he saw " the gentle lady looking at him lovingly," and ap proached her with " a good morning," when she con descended to accept his arm, and he felt great happiness in walking by her side. She said she was going home, and asked him if he would come with her, and he was delighted, and said " Yes ;" and she offered him some pears in a bag, but he would not have them because of the cholera. She called at 5, Panton-street, Hay market, and asked him to wait a little outside the door, and when she came out she said she had given the pears to some little children. They then walked in the park, and she told him that she had much desire to learn foreign languages, and he said he would teach her. Then he went to her house, where she came and sat upon his knees, and began to kiss him and invited him to bed—and they went. He asked her what present he should make her, and she said five guineas, and he said he would let that be for a little while. After stopping there an hour and a into the fresh half he wanted to get air, when he offered her 10s., but she insisted upon having five guineas, and called the landlady and a man up, who said he must give it. He told them she was not worth it, her clothes and all. Then they all pulled and dragged him about, and somebody took two florins out of his waistcoat pocket, and he then said, if they wanted more money they must come with him to his lodgings in St. Martin's-court, and then they all got into the cab to go there, and as he did not want to have a disturbance, he went to try and get the money they wanted. Mr. Broderip observed, that if what the accused said was true, he had been taken un, deprived of his liberty, and placed in the felons' dock without the slightest grounds. He wished to know whether the accused made precisely the same statement when apprehended ? The officer in the case replied that he had. Mr. Broderip (to Mrs. Skirving)—Are you in the habit, Madam, of walking with strange men and taking them to your house! Mrs. Fikirving—No, Sir, lam not ; we merely wen. for this " head." Mr. Broderip—Now, be careful how you answer this question :—Did you not sit on his knee ? Mrs. Skirving—No, Sir, I did not. Mr. •Broderip—Now pray be careful how you answer. Do you mean to swear he did not have connexion with you ? Mrs. Skirving—l can't sN% ear that. [Marked sensation in court.] Mr. Broderip—Yet you have had the audacity to swear that your only object in taking him there was for the postage stamp. Did not you ask him for any money for the intercourse ? Mrs. Skirving—No, I did not. Mr. Broderip—Will you swear that you have not been in the habit of taking other men home ? Mrs. Skirving—There was one gentleman who took a great interest in my concerns went home with me. Mr. Broderip—After having sworn fafrely and con tradicted yourself, as you have done, do you still persist in char g ing this person with robbing you ? Mrs. Skirving—l. do. Mr. Broderip said he should take bail for the accused's appearance on a future day, in order to give the police time to make the most searching inquiries into the character of Mrs. Skirving, and the house where she resided. THAMES.—lnspector Sullivan, of the K stated that a woman was in custody, charged with stab bing her husband with a knife, and it was feared he would not survive. The wounded man was in the Lon don Hospital, and the house surgeon had intimated that the patient was in imminent danger, and would not live many hours. Mr. Ingham—ls the woman in custody ? Inspector Sullivan—She is, your Worship, and in court. _ _ _ Mr. Ingham said ho would at once proceed to the hospital, and take the deposition of the wounded Alan, and he directed that the prisoner should be taken there in custody to hear the evidence of her husband. A few minutes afterwards the magistrates, who was accom panied by Mr. Pyer, the junior clerk, and Mr. Living ston, chief usher, was at the bedside of the unfortunate man, on whom one of the medical officers of the institu tion and the nurses were in attendance. He is by trade a cigar maker, about 38 years of ago, and up to the time of the unfortunate occurrence was residing at 38, Chapel-street, St. George's-in-the-East. The wounded man, who was unable to raise his head, and was supplied with some iced water, was sworn, and interrogated by Mr. Ingham. He gave his evidence in a very collected manner, as follows :—My name is Wil liam Colbert. That woman is my wife. On Saturday night at a late hour, I came home a little tipsy, and my wife began to blow me up, and I struck her on the head. She had a knife in her hand, and she threw the knife at me. It struck me on the chest between the ribs, on the left side. I had my clothes on at the time, and it cut through my clothes and linen. [A sharp-pointed knife, blade of which was stained with blood, was here shown to the wounded man, and he said that was the one which his wife flung at him.] I walked out of my house towards the doctor's shop, and when I got near the door, I fainted from loss of blood. Mr. Ingham—Did the knife leave her hand ? Witness—lt left her hand. She did not keep it in her hand, but threw it from her with all the force she could. After a short interval the examination proceeded. Mr. Ingham—How often did you strike her ? Witness—l hit her two or three times. Mr. Ingham—Whereabouts did you hit her? - - Witness—On the head, sir. - Mr. Ingham—What with ? Witness—With my fists, sir. Mr. Ingham—What was your wife doing with the knife when she threw it at you ? Colbert said, he did not know rightly what his wife was doing with the knife when she threw it at him, but believed it was in her hand. lie had no more to say. Mr. Ingham—Stop—only one more question. now long have you been married to your wife. Witness—Sixteen years and upwards. She has been a very good hardworking woman, and a good fond mother to her children. I have no more to say, your worship. Mr. Ingham—Very good. Are there any questions you would like to put to your husband, Mrs. Colbert ? The prisoner, who sobbed loudly, replied, " None — none, sir." In the afternoon Jana Colbert was arraigned in the dock of this court, charged with feloniously stabbing her hus band, with intent to murder or do grievous bodily harm, and Mr. Ingham, addressing her, said he had already taken sufficient evidence in this case to justify him in re manding her till Wednesday. The prisoner hoped the magistr ate would take bail, for she was anxious to go home and look after her children. Mr. Ingham said he would a cce p t of substantial bail for the prisoner, herself in 8 01 ., a nd two sureties of 40/. each. The prisoner was unable to procure bail, and was locked up. On inquiry at the London Hospii.al last evening our reporter was informed that Colbert v;ao rapidly sinking, and that not the least hopes were entertained of his recovery. The knife penetrated the lunge.

RAILWAY ACCIDENTS,—From a Parliamentary paper just printed, it appears that there were 100 persons killed and 119 injured by accidents on all the rail ways in the United Kingdom during the half-year ending June 30, 1854, there being 81 killed and 102 injured in England and Wales, 14 killed and 13 injured in Scotland, and 5 killed and 4 injured in Ireland. Of those killed, 22 (3 passengers and 19 rail Way servants or contractors) met their death from causes over which they' had no control, and 40 (4 pas sengers and 36 railway servants) in consequence of their own misconduct or want of caution. In like - manner 72 passengers and 19 railway servants were injured from causes over which they had no control, while 3 passen gers and 44 servants or contractors met with injuries from their own carelessness or misconduct. 38 trespas sers or other persons, not passengers or servants, were killed and 5 injured while crossing or walking on the railway, There were no suicides. These accidents occurred on 7,813 miles of railway, of which 5,964 are open in England Wales, 996 in Scotland, and 853 in Ireland. The number of accidents to trains was 47, 36 being to passenger and 11 to goods or mineral trains. Of the 36 accidents to passenger trains 21 were collisions between passenger and other trains or engines, and of the 11 accidents to goods and mineral trains 5 were col lisions. The total number of deaths resulting from acci dents to trains was 11, and of injuries 85. Of these no less than 9 deaths and 64 injuries were caused by colli sions alone, 2 deaths and 57 injuries being to passengers, and the remainder to railway servants. TREATMENT OF JUVENnE OFFENDERS.—A little inci dent occurred at the London and North-Western station, in New-street, Birmingham, a few evenings ago, which excited considerable interest and observation among the passengers and others on the platforms. Three sharp, hardy-looking, ready-tongued youths, dressed in cor duroy jackets and trousers, laced boots, &c., not un like healthy farmers' lads, were seated on one of the benches in lively and earnest conversation with a gen tleman of Birmingham, who had previously regaled them with a substantial repast in the second-class re freshment room. Thence they proceeded, accompanied by their friend and benefactor, to the Liverpool platform, and, much to the surprise of the spectators, entered a first-class carriage of the express train, destined for that port. The lads, upon entering it, appeared highly delighted with their luxurious position, and caused much amusement to the bystanders by their observa tions and gestures. Upon inquiry, after the train had left, it was ascertained that the three youths were from the Reformatory Institution at Kingswood, near Bristol, in which Miss Carpenter takes so deep an interest, and that they were on their way to the United States, where suitable employment awaits them. The gentle man who attended them at the Birmingham station had been requested to see to their arrival and depar ture, and similar care was taken with respect to their reception at and departure from Liverpool. The boys appeared to be in the highest spirits, and had with them two boxes, besides bundles, containing wearing ap parel, books, &c., and were expected to sail from Liver pool immediately. MORAL ELEVATION OF THE WORKING CLASSES.— On Saturday a handsome and commodious building, in tended for the mechanics' institute, was opened in the village of Levenshulme, near Manchester, situate in a dis trict which but a few years ago was looked upon as hopelessly sunk in ignorance and vice. A short time since a number of gentlemen residing in the neighbour hood determined to take steps to elevate the moral and social position of the inhabitants. First a few concerts were given—a mutual improvement class formed—gra tuitous lectures delivered—day school opened, and evening classes, together with a circulating library and reading-room, established. By these means a very marked improvement has taken place in the general character of the inhabitants, and they have now erected a building for a mechanics' institution at a cost of 1,0001. One part of the building will be used as a day and evening school for 250 children, and another as a reading-room. There is already a library of 600 volumes, and special efforts are being made to increase the number to 1,000. UTTER EXTINCTION OF OLD BARTHOLOMEW FAIR.— The last of anything connected with the long-since-de funct " Bartlemy Fair" has j ust expired. Saturday we s the day upon which the Lord Mayor should have proceeded to Smithfield and read the proclamation, which is part of the charter for holding the market for the fair. The act of Parliament for removing the market to Copenhagen fields has at length relieved the corporation of going through the useless ceremony, and as the law of remcval comes into operation next year, of course there was no necessity for his lordship to attend and proclaim the fair in compliance with the charter which sanctioned the holding of the market.

Acrobat continued in good force, and repeated inquiries were made after Midsummer-12 to 1 would have been taken about her. Some small investments at 20 to 1 gave Dervish once more a place in the betting. 600 to 15 was taken about Hannibal. Scythian and Knight of St. George were merely talked about.
