The above alterations have been ren dered necessary in order to prepare the junior officers of the naval engineers for the scientific examinations ordered by the Lards of the Admiralty in a recent circular. The con trol of the steam reserve factory will be vested in the in spector of machinery afloat, who will be assisted in his duties by a chief engineer. I thought it my duty to convey to you at once by the last mail my approval of the course which you had then re aolved to take; and I now proceed to address you more fuily upon the subject, with reference especially to your detpatch of the 24th April, and the communications be tween yourself and your Ministers which it enclosed. The facts upon which you mainly ground the important deeitiou at which you have arrived, and which, strung:; to say, have only now been discovered by your personal in quiries, and by Teira's admissions to the native Minister (Mr. Dillon Bell) appear to be these :-1. That W. King's residence on the disputed laud upon the south bank of the Waitara was not merely, as had been always represented by the sellers, by permission of Teira's father, but in virtue of an arrangement made by all that section of the Ngatiawa tribe, for the safe defence against the Waikatos. 2. That a large number of natives, between 200 and 300, were living upon the block at the time when it was offered for sale, whose dwellings and cultivations were destroyed when poi session was taken by the military. 3. That Teira, as he now asserts, never intended to sell the pahs, one of which was in his own occupation, and did intend to except from sale a re serve of 200 acres, although no such reserve was named in the deed of sale, as ought to have been done. I proceed to explain to you the effect which these states meats have produced upon my mind, both with respect to the transactions of 1859-60 and the measure which you have now adopted, If it be true that a number of families were residing upon and cultivating portions of the land offered for sale (variously estimated at from 10 to 120 acres out of the 980 acres which formed the "Block"), I have no doubt but that Governor Gore Browne and his Ministers, upon discovering the fact, would have carefully reserved and respected such portions, in accordance with the invariable practice of the New Zea land Government, or even have refused to have any further dealings with parties who, like Teira and the other sellers, had been guilty of concealing from the Governor so impor tant a circumstance. If again they had been aware that W. King had established his residence on the south bank of the Waitara in virtue of a general tribal arrangement for pur poses of defence, this fact might have formed an important element in their decision as to whether the purchase could properly and safely be proceeded with. On the whole, I agree with you that your predecessor, if he had been in pos session of these facts, would not have committed himself to the purchase, and I am clearly of opinion that he would not have been justified in doing so, The information, indeed, which you now supply converts into a certainty the doubts which I expressed in my despatch of Nov. 27, 1860, and upon other occasions, as to the prudence of the policy pur sued by Governor Browne and his Ministers, with an evi dent want of sufficient knowledge of the case, as well as of Admiral Richard Saumarem died on Saturday morning last at Clifton. The deceased was a midshipman on board the Spartan at the reduction of the Castles of Pesaro and Cesenatico. He also took part in the action with a Neapo litan flotilla in the Bay of Naples. As Lieut. of the Bac chante ho was engaged in the sieges of Trieste and Cattaro. His commissions bore date as follows :--Lieut., Dec. 5, 1813—Commander, May 19, 1819—Capt., April 17, 1824 Rear-Admiral, May 28, 1853. Recently he became Admiral on the retired list. _ _ . Captain John Moore, C. 8., recently private secretary to the Duke of Somerset, First Lord of the Admiralty, has been appointed a naval aide•de-camp to the Queen, vice Capt. the Hon. James Robert Drummond, C. 8., promoted to be Rear-Admiral. The following appointments and promotions were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Staff•Commander Charles J. Polkinghorne, to the Nile ; Lieut. Charles G. F. Knowles, to command the Investigator; Sub-Lieut. Joshua Cole, to the Hector; the Rev. I). J. Boutflower, Chaplain and Naval Instructor, to the Aurora ; the Rev, A. G. Berry, Chaplain to the Prince Consort; David F. Clow, Pay master to the Canopus; James Wotton, acting Ist class Assist. Engineer in the Immortalite, promoted ; and Andrew Leitch, 2d class Assist.-Engineer in the Duncan, promoted. foresight of the consequences, though with fair and upright intentions,; while it lessens the serious difficulty of aban doning a publicly declared determination in the face of armed opposition. I have said so much as to the propriety and prudence of the Waitara purchase. But I must add, on the other hand, that my view of the justice of exerting military force against W. King and his allies remains unchanged. That chief's conduct, from first to last, still seems to rue to have been inconsistent with any degree of submission to the Queen's sovereignty over New Zealand. In February, 1359, before the Waitara question arose, he had given notice to the Go vernor that he would allow no land to be sold within a dis trict extending 40 mulles north of the European boundary at Taranaki, an interdict of a rebellious character, to which the reasons now or formerly alleged against the Waitara sale can of course have no application. In the same way, at the public meeting where Teira offered the land, and during the many months which elapsed before the survey, he gave no reasons for his opposition, he afforded no explanations of it, either such as were provided for him by others at the time, or such as might have been drawn from the statements which you have now conveyed to me. In short, he never assumed any attitude towards the Governor but one of do. fiance, and, to use the language of Chief Justice Arney in the Legislative Council, never made " any intelligible claim of right to the land, or any other declaration than a decla ration of war." No one can deny that, had he entered into any peaceable and loyal explanations, they would have been attended to, or that if the Government survey had been allowed to pro ceed, the pahs and cultivations would not have been inter fered with, or anything done by Government officers incon sistent with the notice given by Governor Brown some months before, " that if any man can prove his claim to any piece of land within the boundary described, such claim would be respected," I dissent, therefore, from the view of the matter conveyed by the language which in your despatch. of April 24th you place in the mouth of the natives, via., " that the people of Waiters, without having been guilty of any crime, were driven at the point of tho sword from villages, houses, and homes which they had occupied for years." The truth being that W. King and his followers brought these consequences upon themselves by their own conduct, and that the latter, far from being evicted (as it were) for the purpese of taking possession of the purchased land, themselves, in the consciousness of hostility,abandoned their pahs, which were only destroyed after hostile acts had been committed by W. King's party, and military operations bad actually commenced. A ga i n , w ith respec t t o th e asser tion which had attributed to the natives, that they fought in the late war simply "for their hearths and homes," and not at all for the maintenance of "Tribal Right" or tho "Mane" of the Maori King, or to prohibit the sale of land to the Crown even by owners desirous to sell, I can only say that the great body of evidence before me, including that of the ardent and able defenders of W. King, to whom the allegations now made seem to have been unknown, makes it impossible for me to accept them as worthy of credit. I hold, therefore, that no injustice—and it is with the question of justice only that I am now dealing—was either intended or done to W. King and his followers by the employment of military force to carry into effect the survey of the Waiters land for the purpose of ascertaining how much or how little of it was owned by Teira and the others whso joined with him in the sale to tho Crown. I also believe that in the then state of mind of a portion of the New Zealand natives espe cially those of Taranaki, collision between them and tho Government was not to be avoided without great diticulty, rare forbearance, and oven tolerance of conduct which, vnder ordinary circumstances, would be incompatible with the dignity of the Crown. These convictions, however,do not prevent me from deeply , regretting the evils of the late war, and especially so if any of the natives are under the impression that it arose out of an act of injustice committed against them by the Go vernment, I heartily share your anxiety to remove, so far as lies in our power, any such belief for the future, and it was with that hope that I at once signified to you my ap proval of the course you have taken in relinquishing the completion of the Waitara purchase, without further inves tigation, even though that course goes bevond what I be lieve strict justice to require, and is exposes to the dangers pointed out by your responsible advisers. Those dangers are of course increased by the unfortunate chaxico by which the massacre of Lieut. Tragett and his m en took place, be fore the announcement of the d ecision which you already formed. I am far, however, from blaming you for the delay ' caused by the discussions between your Ministers avd your self upon so difficult a questalthough it woulti have been better if the re-occupation of the Tataraimaka block and the abandonment of the Waitara had been effecteil at one and the same time—and I entirely concur in your opinion that the subsequent outrage committed by th e natives to the south, unconnected apparently with W. King' and the Ngatiawae, is not a sufficient reason for not doing wh l a n t cyoortucidueßeioidnedJohuagvhet only b y e d to on e e x a p t re th ss e AmVy earnestaitara, hope that the decisive success gained by General Cameron find the troops, together with a firm attitude on your part, sup ported by your Ministers, will make it impossible for tho natives to resist the nature of a policy dictated by the de sire to root out a belief in wrong done, and a suspicion of wrong intended against them, which might form an obstacle in the way of their reconcilement with their European fel ,ew-subjeets and with their Sovereign.—l have ,Sc.c., NEWCASTLE.

THE LATE ADMIRAL HAM ELlN.—Adirtirai melin, whose death was anncunced in the Moniteur yesterday, will be well remembered :in England as the coadjutor of Admiral Deans Pandas in the Black Sea during the Crimean war. This distinguished naval officer was born Sept. 2, 1796. He was the nephew of Admiral Baron Ha melin, a sailor who saw much service under the First Empire. At the age of 11 his uncle placed him as a midshipman on board the Venus, and while yet a boy he saw a great deal of fighting. In 1812, having obtained a commission, he took part in the expedition to the Scheldt. His promotion was rapid, notwithstanding the peace which followed the battle of Waterloo. In 1828 he became a captain, and in 1812 a rear admiral. The Crimean war found him maritime prefect of Toulon, and he was then selected for the command of the Black Sea fleet. The memorable leading of the French troops previous to the battle of the Alma was effected under his direction. During the attack on Sebastopol forts of t he 17th of October, a shell struck the quarter-dc-e k of the i Vi de Paris, and killed Lieut. Sommelier by Ado- fra h l e i ai n c k. lin's side.

The adjourned meeting of the general committee was held yesterday afternoon at the house of the Society of Arts, John-street, Adelphi. The Archbishop of DUBLIN was called to the chair amidst cheers, and in opening the business begged to remind the meeting how all-important . . it was that peace and concord should mark their proceedings. They had a great deal to do and little time to do it in, and he, therefore, hoped that they would earnestly and strictly address them selves to the business before them. (Hear, hear.) Mr. H. DIXON announced that the Lord Mayor of Dublin and the Lord Provost of Edinburgh had since the last meeting become vice-presidents, and that additions had also been made to the committee. He further stated that a proposition had been laid before the council by some of the manufacturers of Coventry, who had prepared abadge to be worn on the proposed general holiday. The council thought that, with some alterations, it would be a very ap propriate badge for the occasion, and had given their sanction to it, in consideration of which the manufacturers had subscribed 25 guineas to the funds. The council were of opinion that until an idea was given to the public of the amount that might be required to erect a monument they would scarcely expect subscriptions. They therefore sug gested, that at least £30,000 should be asked for that purpose, and that any surplus should be divided among various benevolent and charitable institu tions connected with literature, arts, and the drama. By way of concentrating acid giving effect to local efforts, the council further proposed to put them selves in communication with the various local committees and other bodies throughout the coun try formed for the Promotion of local celebrations of the tercentenary, in order to aid these local bodies by all the advice and assistance which the central committee could afford. The modes proposed by these bodies varied very materially in different localities, but all of them were in the opinion of the council perfectly legitimate ; and they felt that it was their duty to give every encouragement to such local celebrations, in order that the general holiday to which they looked for ward might be a day of real rejoicing throughout the whole country to be remembered for ever. (Hear, hear.) Of course the Stratford Committee would hold a prominent place in these friendly com munications, and it would be the desire of the council to act in the most friendly spirit of eteoperation with that committee. (Hear, hear.) He had the pleaeure of announcing that Mr. Fechter, the lessee of the Lyceum Theatre, who intended to produce the play of " Hamlet" in a very magnificent style, had engaged to give the first evening of its represen tation for the benefit of the funds of the committee. (Hear.) The lessee of the Strand Theatre had also resolved to give the committee an evening, and the list of theatres up to that time which had each promised a night's performance for the benefit of the fonds included Drury-lane Theatre, Adelphi, Lyceum, Strand, Surrey and Sadler's Wells Theatres. (Cheers.) . Oa the motion of the members of the committee, Lord Chelmsford, Sir G. Smart, Mr. Moy Thomas, Mr. J. R. Robinson, Mr. Charles Reade—(hear, hear)—Mr. F. T. Palgrave, Mr. G. Greenwood, Mr. J. G. Cayley, and Mr. H. Mayhew were added to the general committee. Mr. WESTLAND MARSTON said he had been re quested by the special committee appointed at last meeting to draw up an address to the public to read the following report : " The National Shakespeare Committee having appointed us as a special committee to prepare a public address, we beg to state that, in the absence of any report from the committee which have been appeintod to consider the questions of a form and site of a memorial in honour of Shakespeare, your committee feel it would bo premature to submit any for public circulation, " We bog to report, for the information of the national committee, that the following suggestiOns have met with the approval of the special committee " 1. That a memorial be erected in London, which shall afford scope for the illustration of Shakespeare's works by architects, painters, and sculptors. _ _ _ " 2. The adoption of measures to secure a public holiday throughout the kingdom on Saturday, the 23d April next. " 3. A performance on the sane day, at the Theatre Royal, Covent-garden, of music =posed of the poetry of Shakespeare. " 4. An arrangement, if practimac, for one or more per formances, dramatic or musical, from Shakespeare's works, to commence on the 23d of April next—such performances being in addition to those which have been already pro mised in aid of the fund by moat of the principal London managers. 6. A public dinner on the 23d of April next. (Signed " ROBT. VAUGHAN (Chairman), WESTLAND MARSTON, HENRY BARNETT, Tom TAYLOR, SHIRLEY BROOKS, F. TOMLINS, THEODORE MARTIN." W. H. DIXON, Mr. CHAS. READE moved, and Mr. JONAS LEVI seconded, that the report now read be received, adopted, and entered on the minutes, and the mo tion was unanimously agreed to. Mr. Tom TAYLOR said that after the special committee had agreed to the report just received, some including himself, who held iews t the member s, contained that report, felt that it was o their duty to lay these views before the committee morelssugges tion, but not as a docume n t on w hi c h they wished the iy' committeethesetoshtaakpe of 4 memorandum or e action, They had agreed to the following memorandum, which he would con clude by moving that it be received and entered on the minutes Independently of these recommendations, in which all the members of the committee concur, a mode of honouring the genius of Shakespeare has suggested itself to the under signed members of the committee, which would at the same time be of permanent advantage that art which owes to him its noblest masterpieces, and for which his works were designed—the art of the theatre. "The performance of a play or plays of Shakespeare has formed a feature of all the schemes for celebrating the ter • centenary of his birth. But it is remarkable that at this time, while so many are meting about for the best mode in which to do him honour, there should be no theatre in Lon don at which his plays are beingacted. " It seemed to the undersignel that advantage might be taken of this anniversary and movement to set on foot a subscription, if not fOr the erection of a theatre, at least for the collection of a fund to be employed in aid of a theatre and management devoted to the promotion of imaginative plays, including those of Shakespeare and the great drama tists his contemporaries and successors, as well as new works written in the same spirit, such as have now no theatre ap propriated to their representation in this con ntry. "Into the details of the administration of such a theatre we do not now propose to go, but we submit that the estab lishment of such a theatre would form an appropriate and en d ur i n g tribute to the greMnese of Shakespeare in art, which can only be adequately illustrated on and by the stage, ' while it would refine and educate the public taste for the drama, and form at once a school for the art and a goal for the ambition of dramatic authors and artists. " We are not insensible of the difficulties whichbeset this proposal, but we conceive that there are none which might not be met and conquered. "Fully conscious of the wall-founded objections which exist to the theatre, we conceive that a scheme of this kind would strike at the root of the strongest of these objections. would be worthy of the occasion, of great and permanent public benefit, and might be expected to elicit a large amount of public sympathy and material support. (Signed) " Tom TAYLOR, THEODORE MARTIN, SHIRLEY Bitooxs." Mr. S. BROOKS seconded the motion, which, after a short discussion, was agreed to, on the understand ing that it was a mere expression of the opinion of the gentlemen who signed the memorandum, but was not in any w ay binding on the committee. Mr. E. H. LAWRENCE said it was admitted that it was important the committee should fix upon some definite amount as likely to be required for the erection of the proposed memorial. The sum which had been mentioned by the council—L3o,ooo—was, he thought, a very fair one for the purpose in view. The Scottish people bad erected a monument to Sir Walter Scott in Edinblrgh at a cost of about £16,000, and with all due deference to their Scottish friends, he thought that double that amount for a national monument to Shakspeare was not asking too mach, and certainly they ought not to play second fiddle to the city of Edinburgh in such a matter. (Hear.) He therefore proposed that £30,000 be the sum to be asked from the public for the erec tion of a monument to Shnkspeare, and that any surplus should be divided among the various bene volent institutions connected with literature, the arts, and the drama, with the written assent of the members of the committee. Mr. G. GODWIN seconded the motion, though for his own part be hoped the slam to be spent on the monument would be larger than that named. But as a starting point it was necessary to have some definite idea as to the cost of the intended memorial, both as a guide to the public in subscribing, and to artists in forming their designs. He deprecated, however, the idea of tying down the committee ex actly to £30,000, and he hoped that a discretionary power would be left to the council. (Hear.) Mr. TOM TAYLOR moved, as an amendment, that to pledge the committee to any amount, or to any defined action as to the monument was premature. When the special committee met, they felt at the outset that they were crippled and unable to issue any address to the public, because nothing had been decided as to the monument, its nature, or cost; and until they had a report from the monument com mittee appointed at last meeting, it would be highly inexpedient and premature to say whether they should ask for £lO,OOO, £20,000, £30,000, or £lOO,OOO. Mr. SHIRLEY BROOKS seconded the amendment, He said that the country had subscribed a sum of £150,000 for a memorial to the lamented Prince Consort, and he thought a Shakspere monument ought not to coat much less. The amendment was also supported by Mr. Theodore Martin and Mr. Robert Bell. Mr. HEPWORTH DixoN hoped they would have no more divisions on motions of this description. (Hear, hear.) The monument committee would meet in a few days, and the very first question they would have to decide upcn would be what kind of a monument should be erected. If the general committee gave them no idea on that point, the question would be immediately referred book to them. The monument committee must have some data to go upon, some bases for their proceedings, and the adoption of the original motion would sup ply that want. He hoped that Mr. Taylor would not press his amendment. After a short discussion the amendment was put and negatived, and the original motion declared to be carried. In answer to a question respecting the time when the public meeting in the City might be ex pected to be held, Mr. CHARLES READS said he had been in com munication with the Lord Mayor on the subject, and after the satisfactory progress made that day, he had no doubt that the meeting might be held at the Mansion House about a week before the meet ing of Parliament. The Lord Mayor was one of the vice-presidents, and most anxious to promote the general object. (Cheers.) Mr. Dixox said he had received letters from Sir Hercules Robinson, Governor of Hong Kong, and Sir George Bowen, Governor of Queensland (the latter enclosing ten guineas), intimating their ac ceptance of the position of vice-presidents. (Cheers.) Mr. Dixon added that there was an impression abroad that the council had been remiss in com- municating with our colonies. The fact was that they had all been communicated with, and the two letters just received were in answer to those com munications. In due time others would no doubt be received. Mr. GRUNEISEN suggested that in future the practical management of the movement should be confided to the council, and that they should get rid of these meetings of the general committee to consider details ; it was too unwieldy a body for such work. They had that day settled the general principles and objects of the movement, and he therefore moved that the committee adjourn until that day month. The motion was unanimously agreed to, and after a cordial vote of thanks to the chairman the pro ceedings terminated. Naval and Military Intelligence. THE NAVY. The screw steam gunboat Trinculu, tender to the flag ship, arrived at Plymouth from Gibraltar yesterday. She brings letters from the Channel squadron, which state that the Edgar, 71, Captain T. P. Hornby, flag of Rear-Admiral Sydney C. Dacres, C. 8.; the iron screw steamship Black Prince, 41, Capt. Jas. F. B. Wainwright; the Warrior, 40, Capt. the Hon. A. A. Cochrane; and De fence, 16, Capt. Augustus Phillimore, which left Teneriffe on the 3d for Madeira, remained 24 hours only at the latter island, and then proceeded to Gibraltar, where they arrived on the 19th. The ships were at first ordered home. This order was countermanded by instructions to continue in the bay, where one officer, writing on the 12th, counted on stay ing six weeks. Another officer, writing on the after noon &the same day, says the ships are ordered to Lisbon, and will leave for the Tagus on the afternoon of the 13th. Our correspondent has since ascertained from a reliable source that the squadron was appointed to leave Gibraltar on the 13th inst. for Plymouth. The new ironclad sloop of war Research, which left Mil ford:Haven at 10 a.m.on Sunday, passed thp Land's-end at midnight, and arrived at Plymouth yesterday morning. She encountered a heavy sea in the Irish Channel, but behaved well, and steamed rapidly away from her consort, the Geyser steam frigate, which arrived in the Sound to-day, several hours later. The arrival of the Research, the first of the smaller class of our seagoing ironclads, has excited I great interest in Plymouth. Her Majesty's ship Hecate, Capt. Richards, from the Pa cific, was yesterday paid out of commission at Woolwich, and the continuous service men were granted six weeks' leave of absence. Capt. Richards, who has been appointed Hydro grapher to the Ad miralty,in succession to Ad miralWashing ton, proceeded to his new duties immediately on his arrival at Woolwich. The ship has since been in charge of and was yesterday paid off by Lieut, Hand. Tho War Department steam storeship Lord Panmure, H. T. Moore, Commander, arrived at Woolwich on Saturday, laden with useless war stores, from D evonport and Portsmouth, and yesterday com menced unshipping at the Royal Arsenal. She is under orders to reload for Leith and Edinburgh. The Balaclava, 1 sister ship, laden with a full cargo of shot, shell, guns, plat forms, &c,, together with some 7 inch experimental shot to be fired on board the Excellent from Commander Scott's new gun, is still detained at the Arsenal pier, Woolwich, by Messrs. Watkins and Jackson, of Limehouse, for comple tion of machinery, &c. She is under orders to sail this morning for Greenhitho for the adjus' ment of her compasses, and is expected to proceed on the following morning for Devonport. The Lord Vivian, sailing ship in the service of the War Department, which is also laden with war stores for Cork, will bo towed to Devonport by the Balaclava. The iron paddlewheel steamer Recruit, 6,150-horse power, was prevented leaving Chatham harbour yesterday to take her trial at the Maplin Sands in consequence of the dense fog which prevailed the whole day. Should the weather be favourable she will make her trial trip this morning. The paddlewheel steam sloop Geyser, 6, Commander Mark R.Pechell, which left Pembroke on Saturday, arrived at Plymouth yesterday. The sailing frigate Proserpino was towed yesterday from her moorings in Hamoaze to the hulk off the Devonport dockyard, where she will be stripped of her furniture and fixtures prior to her being sold out of the service of the Ad miralty. The huge condensers and cylinders for the iron frigate Achilles, 35, 1,250-horse power, fitting at Chatham, have arrived at the dockyard from the establishment of Messrs. John Penn and Sons, the firm employed to supply the en gines and machinery for the Achilles, and yesterday the mechanics employed on the vessel since her removal from the dockyard to the entrance of the harbour completed fix ing the boilers, cylinders, and condensers on board. The cylinders are the largest ever constructed for a vessel of war, each weighing between 29 and 30 tons. The two con densers weigh 23 tons scwt, each, and the 10 boilers nearly 22 tons each. The whole of the heavy portions of the ma chinery has been shipped on board without accident of any kind by means of the floating roasting shears, which have been towed down to Gillingham for that purpose. The work of completing the Achilles and fitting her for sea is being carried forward with the greatest possible energy, the number of mechanics employed on board daily being up wards of 1,000. In consequence of the removal of the floating factory iron ship Chasseur to Chatham, to be employed as a workshop for the Achilles, directions have been forwarded to Sheer ness for the millwright's shop in that dockyard to be vacated by the workmen who until recently have been employed there, iv, order that the factory Way IA turAed Qvor Or the Director, Mr. F.

THE EXPLOSION AT LIVERPOOL.—It is stated that the insurance offices are not liable for the damage to property under the terms of their policies. On Saturday, however, the directors of the Royal Insurance Company came to the determination of making good the loss suffered by their insurers. The loss sustained from injury received to house property must have been something incredible. We are satisfied this liberal example must be followed by the other insurance companies, and thus go far to witipte the effects of this wide-spread disaster, THE ARMY. A general full-dress parade of the companies composing the battalion of Royal Marine Light Infantry of the Chat ham division took place yesterday at head. quarters to wit ness the ceremony of decorating seven non-commissioned officers and men with the medals which, with gratuities in money, have been awarded them by the Lords of the Admi ralty for long service and exemplary conduct. The battalion having been formed in contiguous columns on the parade ground, the following non-commissioned officers and men were oalled to the front and presented with the rewards ordered by the Admiralty :—Sergeant Edwin Collins and Colour-Sergeant J. Wright, medal and £l5 each; Private Thomas Pratt and Private John Burling, medal and £5 each. The following non-commissioned officers were each presented with a silver medal, without gratuity, for good conduct and long service :—Colour-Sergeant J. Reynolds, who also wears the medal for service in China; Sergeant W. Lucas, who is also in possession of a China medal ; and Corporal W. C. Crow, attached to the Royal Marina Band, The medals were distributed by Col.-Commandant T. Lemon, C.B. Each of the non-commissioned officers and men decorated has been upwards of 21 years in the Royal Marines. The sentence on William James Wightman, a private in the Royal Marine Light Infantry, who was convicted at Woolwich by a garrison court-martial on the 14th for being absent and making away with his necessaries, was yesterday promulgated. The prisoner is sentenced to be confined in the gaol at Fort Clarence with hard labour, to have his pay stopped, and to be branded with the letter "D." Notwithstanding the constant employment of the lash in punishment of these crimes, they, as already stated in the Sun, are proved to be considerably on the increase. The War Department authorities,without absolutely banish ing corporal punishment from the decision of courts-martial, have, it is stated, intimated that Val jOUS terms of imprison ment and hard labour may be substituted until further orders. The decision of the War Department has been re ceived at Woolwich with much satisfaction, more especially as petitions have been presented by the inhabitants and corporate meetings have been held to urge the necessity of the abolition of the " cat " from the army. ~ The new cavalry barracks at Colchester have been com pleted by the contractors Messrs. 'MOWS and might be now occupied by troops. The gas and water service is nearly established and a system of roads has been formed. Messrs. Lucas have commenced the execution of another contract; and the canteen, reservoir, riding-school, granary, &0., are now in course of construction, The Alleged Harshness to the Poor in Bethnal-green, Last night the weekly meeting of the Bethnal-green Board of Guardians was held at the workhouse, Victoria-park, Mr. Collins in the chair. Mr. Howard, clerk to the board, read a communication from the Poor-law Board, transmitting a letter from the Rev. Mr. Chaffer, complaining of the conduct of Mr. Run- cieman, relieving officer, towards a family named Cox. The rev. gentleman stated that the man Cox, residing at No. 7, Friar's-mount, Bethnal-green, having become ill, applied for medical relief, but that Mr. Runcieman refused to give it, and insisted upon the whole family coming into the house. The wife being in a condition to support herself declined to do so, and it was urged that if Mr. Runcieman's object was to prevent the sick man Cox coming to the infirmary, his conduct was cruel, and that if he really desired the whole family to enter the house, ho was inflicting a hardship on the wife and child and throwing a needless burden on the rates. Mrs. Cox was called in, and she said she had a complaint to make. On Saturday week she applied for a medical order for the doctor to attend her husband, who was very ill. She did not ask for relief. Mr. Sadlier, one of the relieving offi cers, began to write out an order, when Mr. Runcieman en tered and stopped him. Mr. Runcieman said she should have nothing but the house, and that the whole family should come in. He gave her an order foi the admission of the whole family. Neither her husband nor herself would consent to that, and until Monday there was no doctor. She wont on the latter day and got an order for the doctor, who attended. Mr. Runcieman called and said to her husband, "Do you know I could fetch a policeman and have you taken up." He shouldnot have said that to a sick and dying man. Her husband said he would rather die of hunger than consent that his wife should enter the house and become a pauper while she could maintain herself. Mr. Runcieman said, "You are a pauper now. What else are you r' He also said, " Make no mistake about me. You shall have nothing from me butthe house." On Saturday her husband got worse, and Dr. Marsingham sent a certificate that he should be taken into the house. Mr. Fox asked whether, when application was made merely for a medical order, an order for the whole family to enter the house was given instead. Mr. Runcieman said relief was asked for as well as the order. This the woman Cox denied, and it was stated that if the application was for relief, Mr. Sadlier would not have begun to write out the order. Mr. Runcieman said that the order waste admit the whole family or one of them. Mr. Fox said that could not have been. The order must have been not for the sick man, but for the whole family. Mr. Runcieman said he gave the order for the whole family to be admitted, but endorsed it, "Or one to be ad mitted if desired." It was very easy to make these charges. A pauper had nothing to lose, but he had his character. He passed this family to St. Luke's last year, and it he had done his duty and handed them over to the police he would not now have all this trouble. Mr. Fox said if Mr. Runcieman had done on the Saturday what he did on the Monday—given a medical order when it was asked for—all the trouble would have been avoided. Instead of doing so, he most irregularly gave an order for the admission of the whole family to the workhouse. Mr. Runcieman said that the whole family were drunken and dissolute, and Mrs. Con had given birth formerly to an illegitimate child in the house. In answer to a question from Mr. Collins, Mr. Runcieman stated that the Rev. Mr. Chaffer, whom he wished to treat with every respect, had been led into telling a great untruth when he said the board gave no out-door relief. He (Mr. Runcieman) gave out-door relief next to St. Philip's Church. Mr. Collins slso said the Rev. Mr. Chaffer was very wrong on that point, and ho denounced i the rev. gentleman's conduct in writing to the papers. The board ought to con tradict his statements, and show him no mercy, as he had shown none to the board. The consideration of the eubject of Mr. Runcieman's order was adjourned, to see whether he had, as he alleged, written on the back of it that the b:ck man alone might ,ter the house. ac COURT AND SOCIETY," FROI f ELIZABETH TO ANNE.
