NAVAL AIDE-DE-CAMP TO THE QUEEN. rite vacant aide-de-camp to the Queen has been con ferred on Captain Sir Balwin Wake Walker, K.C.8., Surveyor of the Navy, vice Martin, pro.'eoted. We copy from : Q'Byrne's Biography t:le epitome of the services of Sir Baldwin. We may add that it is ad mitted by the whole service that a better ()facer and sailor never commanded a ship, and few will dispute that the office of Survegor of the Navy, the dutie,3 of which have become . tenfold more onerous since .the preparations for war, has been as ably and as eff,:.c ently filled as any sailor in the navy could perform it.. The gallant Surveyor of the Navy, by his services at sea, his gallantry against the enemy, and his devo tion to his office, has fully earned the proud dis tinction of aide-de-camp to her Majesty. "Sir Baldwin Wake Walker entered the navy July 5, 1812, and was made lieutenant April 6, 1820, into the Nautilus, 18, Capt. Isham Fleming Chapman, on the Jamaica station. He returned to England about the com mencement of 1822, and was next appointed, Jan 17, 1823, to the Brazen, 26, Capt. Gee. Wickens Willes, in , which vessel he was employed until the close of 1826 in South America and on the coast of Africa; Sept. 7, 1827, and March 28, 1828, to the Rattlesnake, 23, and iEtna, bomb, Capts. Hon, C. Orlando Bridgeman and Stephen Lushington, both in the Mediterranean ; May 6, 1829, and April ,28, 1830, to the Asia, 84, and Britannia, 120, flag-ships.of Sir. Pulteney Malcolm, on the same station ; and August 27, 1831, as_senior_to the Barham, 50, Cap tain Hugh Pigot. While serving as first lieutenant in the Atna he distinguished himself by the valuable assis tance he afforded his captain, Lushington, at the reduc tion, in October, 1828, of M orea Castle, the last hold of the 'Turks in the Peep °rumens. For hie services he was created a Knight of the Legion of Honour of France, and of the Redeemer of Greece. He continued employed in the Barham, on the Mediterranean station, until the spring of 1834 ; and on the 15th of July in that year he was advanced to the rank of commander. He served afterwards, from Sept. 1, 1836, until advanced to his present rank, Nov. 24, 1838, as second captain, again in the Mediterranean, on board the Vanguard, 80, Captains Hon. Duncombe Pleydell Bouverie and Sir Thomas Fellowes ' • and he held command, from April 16 until October, 1845, and from April 23, 1846, until August, 1847, of the Queen 110, and Constance, 50, the former bearing- the fl ag of Sir John West, at Devon. port, the latter stationed in the Pacific. In 1848 he was appointed Surveyor of the Navy. " Captain Walker was for some time a rear and vice admiral in the Turkish service ; and for the conduct he displayed in command of the Ottoman naval forces during the operationson the coast of Africa, including the attack Avon Beyrout and the bombardment of St. Jean d'Acre, 1 ewes nominated an honorary Knight Commander of Leßath, Jan. 12, 1841. He was made a knight also " tithe second class of the Iron Crown of Austria, of the , -- ecouiTclase of St. Anne of Russia, and of the second elais of the Red Eagle of Prussia." APPOINTMENTS.

EMBARKATION OF THE 20TH REGIMENT FOR THE SEAT OF WAR. PLYMOUTH, MONDAY. Another of those exciting scenes which have of late so frequently aroused the enthusiastic feelings of the "true and brave" in this town, occurred this morning on the embarkation of the 20th Regiment for the scene of more stirring events in the East. - The Colombo having arrived to take the troops to their destination (Varna), at ten o'clock they mustered on parade in the citadel, 900 rank and file ; and having gone through the preliminary manoeuvres, marched off through th e pr in c i pa l s t re ets to the scene of their em barkation; the streets from the citadel being crowded - with" - whose enthusiastic cheering fully evinced ..the'lively interest with which they were animated towards their brave' Conntryinen.

RECRUITING IN LONDON,--THRCAVALRY.— Recruiting in the metropolis is proceeding with much briskness, although not with proportionatesuceess. Indeed, Dever do we remember seeing Hyde.

ITAICY CLOTHING.—CoIoneI Lothian Dickson, and Mr. S alaman, of Charing-cross, had an interview with the 21 finister of War yesterday, when the proposed uni form for the Light Infantry was submitted. The uni form consists of a short tunic, or short frock, of a grey texts ire, trousers the same. The whole of the accoutre ment gun, knapsack, &c., weigh but 281 b., an improve ment, certainly, upon the present scale, 681 b. A kini t of blanket is substituted for the great coat, and as a st t off there is a waterproof cape added, a desideratum, ind eed, under a hot rain. RIT.RAO.RDINARY CASE OF LUNACY. On Monday a special jury was empannelled before ?Fr:lnc - is Barlow, Esq., one of th e Mast ers i n L unac y, i n Clement's-hall, Clement's-inn, to inquire into the state of .mind of Jonathan Child, Esq., formerly a captain in the 12th regiment of Lancers. ...;ir Frederick Thesiger, Mr. Montague Smith, Q.C., andt Mr. Hodson appeared in support of the commission ; Mr. Montague Chambers, Q.C., and Mr. J. A. Russell on behalf of Captain Child • and Mr. Locke appeared on 1 ehalf of the " Lunatics' Friend Society." From the opening address of Sir F. Tliesiger, which c •ccepied more than six hours in its delivery, it appeared t bat Captain Child was the second son of Mr. Child, o f Kinlelt Hall, in Shropshire, and was entitled to the r, eversion 01 f 4,0001. a year on his father's decease. He v , as now i n his 43d year. At the age of 18 he entered oie Lancers as „-ornet, and at a particular period after his his disposition, which previously bad jb'eienninpgectuhle army,iarly ae .qtiong.te and engaging, was marked by a decided change. He became proud, impatient of control, hot-tempered, and inordinately vain, besides beiing averse to his mother, to whom he had previously be en fondly attached. He also indulged in such 13 , 7ish extravagance that his father had to inter pose and raise money en the estates. About the year 1838 he became possessed with the extraor dinary infatuation that the Queen had a marked attachment to him, and that she evinced her affec tion in an evident manner every time they met. Captain Child had at last even written to her Majesty, inviting her to open a correspondence, and that he quar relled with his brother and other' members of his family, who had implored him to desist, and endeavoured to disabuse him of his unfortunate notiOns. Subsequently, i on account of the continuation of his extraordinary con duct, it was intimated by the authorities to his father (who had shrunk as long as possible from measures of restraint) that if he did not take the neceoary steps they must proceed to do so themselves ; and after further communications with Lord Hill, Mr. Child at length had his son placed in the care of Dr. Mon 'o, of St. John's-wood, whence (his delusions having parsed into the chronic stage) he was removed, in 1851, to Hayes Park, near Uxbridge, where he came under the control of the Commissioners in Lunacy. _. _ At the termination of the learned counsel's address, the inquiry was adjourned till Tuesday. ADJOURNED INQUIRY. This inquiry was resumed yesterday in Clement's-inn Hall. Mr. Lutwyche, secretary to the Commissioners of Lunacy, produced all the letters that had been received from Capt. Child since his confinement at Hayes-park. Two hundred and three of the letters were in cipher, but Mr. Lemon, of the State Paper Office, had furnished witness with the key thereto, and thus provided witness could read most of them with the greatest ease. The reading of these and the other letters written by Capt. Child (which did not betray symptoms of mental disease, but rather the contrary), occupied the whole morning. They all more or less contained protestations against the ete.'ntinuanee of his detention, and the legality of his first iuc arceration in an asylum. In one he declared that he never entertained the idea that the Queen had formed an attachment for him since the month of June, 1840, and that he had been misled into the impression that the was attached to him, by what he conceived to be some peculiarity in her manner towards him, at the opera. But even these erroneous impressions he urged were wanting in all the essential characteristics of insanity, and it did not follow that because he had fallen into error, he was therefore of unsound mind. Many of the letters related to pecuniary matters be tween bimself and his father, and complained of the course which the latter had taken. Mr. Locke said that the Lunatics' Friend Society, for whom he appeared, having been charged with unneces sarily meddling in the case, the letters addressed to the commissioners would show whether that was a just charge or not. In cross-examination Mr. Lutwyche said the letters contained many remarks upon politics, and were written with great ability, being, in fact, beautiful specimens of composition. I - Mr. Leman, Of the State Paper office, deposed to having easily succeeded in deciphering the letters. The words " Serat" and " Gemo" meant the Queen ; "Lo renzo" stood for Prince Albert, and "Dore" signified the Duchess of Kent. The letters "K. 8." meant her Majesty's ministers, and " Friend" was applied to Louis Napoleon. Mr. Charles Babbage, Professor Wheatstone, and Mr. T. F. Lewin, gave similar evidence. The Earl of Shaftesbury, president of the lunacy com missioners, deposed that he had had an interview with Captain Child on the 10th of January, 1852. Two other commissioners were present. On the 22d of that month he signed a report expressing his opinion concerning the captain's condition. On oross-examination his lord ship stated that Capt. Child had, during the interview, dwelt on she moral impropriety of his being detained if he was a sane man, and made some representations as to the manner in which he had been treated. He ap peared a man of ability, and entered on his argument with great ingenuity. He (Lord Shaftesbury) was greatly impressed with his whole manner. Capt. Child con versed with great acuteness and skill, and was a person, he considered, calculated to be an ornament to any society, if he could keep himself under control. Re-examined—This interview took place a year be fore the letters in cipher were sent. He considered Capt. Child to be decidedly of unsound mind, although he conversed so skilfully. Sir F. Thesiger having read a number of the letters addressed to " Serat" or the Queen. Capt Child was then introduced, his appearance ex cited considerable interest. He is of slender build, about 5 feet 10 in. high, with a thorough military bear ing. His answers to the q iestions put to him were given with much shrewdness. Their substance was that he had certainly considered that the Queen's man ner to him at first had been somewhat marked, and he could excuse the letters he had written to her, though he could not justify them. The letters in cipher were mere nonsensical effusions, written to exercise his imagination in confinement, and in an off-hand sort of way, without any fixed purpose. " Serat" might mean the Queen, or Brittania : it was on l y a fi gurative ex pression. The letters were as absurd to him as to anyone else. The fact was he was determined to write constantly to Mr. Lutwyche, until that gentle man answered certain questions which he had put to him. - He thought that paper so scribbled would be good enough- for the purpose. The cipher letters were written for his own amusement, not with the idea that anyone else would see them or be inter ested in them. There were indelicate expressions in them, no doubt, but they were in oipher, and Le was vary sorry they bad been exposed, as they were not intended to be, and the very fact of there being such expressions was of itself sufficient evidence that the letters were never intended to be read by any one ; they were written for the employment of his time, and were not :Mended to be known to any human being. lie had burnt, an immense deal of that sort of writing; and he invented the I cipher, because he wished to make secret memoran dums while in confinement in Ireland. It was very stupid of him to send these papers in cypher to Mr. Lutwyche, and he would never do it again. Other per sons had thought that the Queen had paid him marked attention. He must decline to say who they were, but he would tell anything to settle the question of his in sanity. The Queen paid him attention both before and after her marriage, in a marked manner, but be did not mean to say that anything wrong was intended by it, but the re was a marked manner. He would much rather not say who beside himself observed it. He had sup the Queen's manner, that her marriage with Prince Albert was a sham, it was not a fixed opinion ; but a mere supposition, which he got rid of, not by l apse of4tilise, nor by treatment, but by proofs that it was not a sham. It did happen that there was draw the least Inference from it, he would not something in the Queen's it was intended for manner,. would even say At the close of Cahpitma; by where he Wa s . b c u h t ild it ,s w e a x s am fo i r na so ti m on e , one close The jury retired to a Captain Child's room, and having had a ceedings were over for the short consultation, returned.

THE ELIZABETH FRY REFUGE. —Th e annua l meeting of this excellent institution toolc place on M on d ay at the house of .Messm. Overend, Gurney, and Co., Lombard street. It appeared from the report that 375 destitute females had been admitted on their release from prison since its establishment. Eighty-eight were received dur ing the last year most of whom have been placed in do mestic service and other useful occupations. Several striking and interesting cases were adduced in proof of ,the society's success. Twenty-three are now in the asylum at Hackney. The report was well received, anti a committee appointed for the ensuing year. We were i sorry to find the income was short of the expenditure nearly 1501. Ca 1,31 BETTING AT MANCHESTER;. JULY 18. On Saturday the rooms at the Post-office Hotel re sumed their bustling appearance, and new life seemed to be infused into the .minds of the layers of the odds by the great event at Liverpool being decided in their favour, which rendered the settling on their part easy ; but as regards the minor events, they had anything but a " rosy" time of it. Ammonia's victory for the Cup caused great astonishment, and perhaps none were more surprised than both the owner and trainer, and although it may be said that she had many times shown good run ning at home, and a great deal depended on her temper, we are inclined to believe that ber success at Liverpool is attributable only to pure accident, caused by the seve rity of the pace for a mile and three-quarters upon such a severe course, there being upwards of a thousand yards a dead rise at the finish, together with the recent heavy falls of rain—consequently, long before the horses reached home, it was difficult to raise a gallop. Am monia, however, who was carrying only a feather weight viz. 6st 21b. upon a five-year old mare, managed to struggle on to the end, coming in an easy winner. It ' is not our province to prophesy, or we might venture to predict that, if the race had been run over again with the same weights, over York, Doncaster, or New market Course, that she would not have the remotesil; chance of winning, nor would she be a much better r favourite than she was at the start at Liverpool. Yesterday, the chief part of the settling being goit through, a few investments were made upon the Good-- wood Stakes. Nancy was backed at 20 to lin hun dreds, but subsequently we heard 300 to 10 offercad against her. Jonathan Martin, who has been backed for a tolerable amount at 100 to 6, seems rather un healthy in the market, having receded to 25 to 1. Jac queline and Lough Bawn are the only horses that have been backed in our hearing for the Newton Gold Cup, and Typee for the Nottingham Handicap. To-day, upon the time approaching for the departure of the special train for Newton, viz., twelve o'clock, the rooms became deserted, at which time the odds stood as follows : NEWTON CUP. 3to 1 aget Jacqueline (taken). 4to 1 agst Lough Bawn (taken freely) NOTTINGHAM HANDICAP. 7to 2 aget Typee (taken).

TENTH DAY'S INQUIRY. (Continued from our First Edition of yesterday.) Mr. Baker then commenced summing up, and said that, after ten days of a laborious and somewhat ano malous inquiry, it became his duty to sum up, and be fore entering upon his task, he hoped the jury would discharge from. their minds whatever they had heard out of doors, and confine themselve s only to the cause of the child's death, or they might render themselves liable not only tocensure, but perhaps to legal proceedings. He then referred to the feeling which had been shown during the proceedings, and expressed his regret that more respect had not been shown to the office of coroner. He then went at some length into the history of the pro ceedings connected with the dismissal of Dr. Gay, and those leading through his and other means to the inquest being held, and told the jury that with that they had nothing to do, or no right to interfere. The coroner then proceeded to read some passages from Sir Astley Cooper's Lectures, which stated th a t th e operation of ex tracting the calculi in children was of a very dangerous nature, and the younger the more so ; and that they fre quently died in three days from the time of performing the operation, especially if the patient lost much blood. The lecturer also went on to describe the manner of performing the operation, and added that he had known a dozen cases where the operator had missed the bladder. He then went on to point out the illegality of juries appending remarks to theirlverdicts, and quoted Lord Denman who said that juries should confine themselves to the question bafore them, as by doing otherwise they made an injurious use of their powers. He (the coroner) then reverted to the law of man slaughter, and cited the opinion of Mr. Justice Patti son in " The Queen v. Lightfoot," in the Not tingham Railway case, where it was laid down that where a man did his best he could not be held guilty of manslaughter if through his act death ensued. Also in the case King v. Williams (Carrington and Payne), where a man midwife had, through mistake, done an injury to a woman whom he had delivered, which caused her death. Lord Ellenborough warned the jury of the great danger of returning verdicts of manslaughter, as it would deter medical gentlemen from attempting operations of the greatest benefit to their fellow-creatures. Manslaughter could only be returned in cases of gross neglect. He then reverted to the ruling of Mr. Baron Garrow in the case of Saint John Long, and then went on to read portions of the evidence taken at the several inquiries. The jury retired at five o'clock, and at 20 minutes to ten again came into court, when the foreman announced that the following was the VERDICT OF THE JURY. " We find that the deceased, Alfred Richardson, died of inflammation, caused by an operation unskilfully per formed by Mr. Thomas Weedon Cooke, and Mr. Thomas Wakley, jun. "The jury finding great difficulty in com i ng to a satis factory conclusion respecting the other matters deposed to before them, they have resolved to exercise the dis cretion permitted , to them, by d ec li n i ng to give any opinion on them. The Coroner inquired if the jury wished to prefer a criminal charge against any one, which was replied to in the negative by the foreman of the jury. The proceedings in this extraordi nary and protracted investigation then terminated. THE RELIGIOUS FEUD AT PIMLICO. Yesterday e r sdmeetinga very crowd e d meeting was held in the Riding Motcomb-str ee t , Be r grave-square, for g measure s f or th e arrest of Church of E ng l an d , and more and St. "adoptin g in especially in the churches of St . P aul, Knightsbridge, the ße m purpose i eh practices a in Barnabas, Pimlico." The large area of the Riding School, which had been appointed as the place for holding the demonstration, was densely thronged, and a large number of fashionably dressed ladies occu pied seats on the platform and in a reserved portion of the building. One extensive platform, to hold from 300 to 400 persons, was erected for the occasion, every seat on which was filled, and at the commencement of the proceedings it was computed that from 700 to 800 per sons were congregated together. Admiral Harcourt, R N., in the unavoidable absence of Viscount Com bermere, K.C.8., was called to the chair. Upon the arrival of the speakers on the platform a scene of great uproar immeliately took place in the body of the meeting, and a g enera l m ele e ensued be tween the representatives of the High Church and the Low Church, which ended in the latter party turn ing several of their opponents out of the meeting by force. Order having been procured, the Chairman re quested the Rev. John Kelly to open the business with prayer, which the rev, gentleman did amid much con fusion ; and before the prayers concluded, an unparal leled scene of riot and uproar again intervened, in which a regular fight ensued in the body of the meeting. A large number of police constables at length arrived, and, with their assistance, the meeting was cleared of several of the High Church party, who were roughly handled in the affray. After a few observations from the chairman, The Hon. S MITH - VituRKER moved, "That this meet ing views, with deep regret and apprehension, the inno vat ions and su perstitious practices introduced of late years into the mode of worship in many of our parish churches, and calls upon every sincere Protestant to do all iu his power to suppress them." The resolution havingbeen seconded by Mr. Ryder, was put and carried amid much confusion and uproar. Mr. BEALE moved the second resolution, to the effect that, as the mode of carrying out the service at the church of St. Paul and St. Barnabas was obnoxious to the ratepayers it was the duty of the parishioners to support Mr. Westerton their churchwarden, in effecting a change in the services, as at present carried on, and placing them again in the simplicity and purity of the Protestant faith. What he (Mr. Beale) demanded was, that the services should be carried out at their churches as at St. George's and St. Peter's. (Loud applause and uproar.). Mr. BERT seconded the resolution, which was also carried. Mr. Westerton (churchwarden of St. Paul's), Mr. Snell, Mr. Ingle, Mr. Lard, and other gentlemen having addressed the meeting, amid much confusion and uproar, several other resolutions, in support of the objects of the meeting were carried. The resolutions were to the effect that there should be a general demonstration in different parts of the country in support of the movement, and a committee was appointed to collect subscriptions for the carrying out of such an object. Should redress not be gained from the Bishop of London, it was proposed to bring the subject before the Legislature. The meeting then broke up amid much confusion and uproar, the Chairman announcing before the assembly had dissolved, that the committee were in readiness to receive donations and subscriptions on behalf of the " Church Protestant Defence Society," and men were placed at the doors with plates to receive donations. The meeting then separated, without molestation, a body of police being stationed in the vicinity to preserve order. n vIIIENTAL GAS COMPANY.—The Oriental Gas COM. pany have received intelligence by the overland mail that their contract for lighting Calcutta exclusively for 21 years has been confirmed.

THE CROPS IN SOMERSETSEHRE.—The weather until'yesP terday (Tuesday) has been in a very unsettled condition, with scarcely a fine day during the past week. The ci•opn are progressing, although slowly, to maturity, and, 0 11 the whole, their appearance is spoken of favourably. Still with blight and mildew prevailing it is too early to give an opinion as to the yield, especially as the exoefin of wet and the want of sun have exercised an unfavour able effect. The hay crop will be a bad one, worse than last year. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. CUSTOM-HOUSE, JULY 18.

At this morning's market there was a thin attendance of town and country dealers, who, in consequence of the rineness of the weather, showed great indisposition to pur chase. Wheat and flour of fine quality were freely offered at a decline of fully 6d per 701b5., and 2s per barrel, and 3s per sack, without leading to more than the usual retail business. IPSWICH—JULY 18. The reports of Mark Lane yesterday, and the extremeli fine weather which has now burst upon us, caused the market to be perfectly stagnant. But little business could be transacted, as no one appeared inclined to look even at wheat, and 3s to 4s abatement took place on sales. Spring corn dear, and the beans and peas are reported as seriously injured, similarly to the hop bines. PER QUARTER.
