THE NEAPOLITAN TARIFF. The new Neapolitan tariff, in which the duties are consi derably reduced, has been received in England. We subjoin the items, premising that the ducat is worth about 3s. 34d. sterling, and contains 100 grani ; that the " cantar lordo" is somewhat less than 2001 b. avoirdupois, and contains 100 rotoli ; and that the " cantar piccolo" contains rather more than 1001 b. avoirdupois : Ducats.

The tariff came into operation on the '29th of August. EXTENSIVE SEIZURE OF WATCHES.—A few days since, in consequence of Information which had been received, two of the officers of the revenue were despatched to one of the large towns in the west of England, intimation having been given to them that a person had a large number of watches in his possession, which had been imported into this country from the continent without payment of the proper duties thereon, and of which the revenue had consequently been defrauded. We understand that the officers have returned to town, and have succeeded in making a seizure of the contraband watches, which considerably exceeded 100 in number. No further particulars have transpired as to the names of the persons, or as to any proceedings likely to be insti. toted against them. This is the third or fourth extensive seizure of this valuable article of merchandise made by the Customs' officers within the short space of a few months. If we be correctly informed, the same officers have a seizure of a much larger quantity of the same valuable description of goods in view, if they have not already captured them. It is a matter of surprise how se large a number of such valuable articles could possibly be imported, although their ultimate seizure must be an equal source of gratification to the officers and the trade generally, which must necessarily be seri ously injured by the success of such malpractices. LINCOLN AND NOTTINGHAM RAILWAY.—At a meeting held at the Midland station at Derby, on Tuesday last, the Directors of the Midland Railway accepted the tender of Messrs. Smith and Holland, contractors, Leicester, for making the Lincoln and Nottingham Railway, which is, according to the conditions of their contract, to be open for the public on the Ist of June next. DREADFUL ACT OF SELF-DESTRUCTION.—Thurs dqy afternoon the utmost excitement prevailed in the neigh. bourhood of Messrs. Elliot's brewery at Pimlico, in consequence of a report, unfortunately too well founded, that an individual had shot himself through the head in the parlour of the Stag, in Castle. lane, adjoing the brewery. The facts upon inquiry appear to be as follow :—Mr. Richards, a gun-stock maker, living in Castle.lane, and having another residence at Fulham, went to the Stag about fire o'clock, and having gone to the back door looked at his watch, when he went into the front parlour and called for a pint of porter, which Mrs. Church, the landlady, took to him. At this time he was standing up and looking out of the window, but there was no thing in his manner to excite the slightest suspicion in her mind of the tragical act that was to follow, and Richards was perfectly sober at the time. She had scarcely left the room when she was alarmed at the report of a pistol in the parlour, and upon some persons going into the room the unfortunate man was found lying in a pool of blood on the floor, and a pistol by his side. Ile was immediately taken up stairs in an insensible state, and surgeons sent for, when Mr. Kendall, of York-street, quickly attended. It was then disco vered he had shot himself under the right ear, and the bullet had most probably passed into the brain. Not the slightest hope is held of his recovery, and his existence cannot be prolonged above a few hours. No cause can possibly be assigned for the act, as Mr. Ri chards was in good circumstances. FRIGHTFUL COACH ACCIDENT.—On Saturday last the London and Newmarket mail, which leaves Norwich at five o'clock, met with a very serious acc!dent at Cringleford-gate. Coming rapidly down the bill, at the bottom of which is the turn. pike-gate (a good :pose being required to mount the opposite de. clivity), by some mistake the gate was flung back the wrong way, and catching the forev/heel shattered it to pieces,'every spoke being removed, and the coach body separated from the axletree. The coachman (Newman), a moat steady driver, continued to hold the reins, and was much injured by being dragged and bruised. We regret to say a lady, who was passenger, had her arm broken, and three other passengers were so much hurt that they were com pelled to return to Norwich. A gentleman, a London traveller, was very much cut and contused about the face and head, but came on by another coach, for which a messenger was sent to Norwich, and which continued the journey, arriving at the Suffolk Hotel, in this town, two hours later than usual. Every attention was paid to the sufferers that humanity could suggest, and the gentleman who arrived at the Suffolk was going on well when our informant last inquired.—Bury Herald. A " MONSTER" POLICEMAN.—On Tuesday evening the inhabitants of Brixton, Walworth, and Peckham, were conside rably amused by the aerial gambles of a " monster" policeman, who was seen floating about the air for some time, and who at length fell upon the roof of a house in Minerva-place, Old Kent.road. It appears that Mr. Bass, a gentleman of fortune residing in Kent terrace, Lyndhurst-road, Brixton, has been in the habit of letting off small balloons from his pleasare-grounds, for the amusement of biz friends. Lately he has caused the construction of a figure of 12 feet in height in glazed paper, with head, neck, arms, and legs, and painted in colours to represent a perfect Jac simile of a "peeler," with truncheon In hand; and on Tuesday night he (Mr. Bass) had caused this figure to be attached to a pilot balloon, and so arranged it that it should drop from its companion upon the former attaining a certain altitude. The experiment was very sue. tessful, and, upon ascending, the figure of the " peeler" had an ex ceedingly ludicrous appearance, and seemed as if in the act of being hung. On attaining a certain altitude the figure dropped from the balloon, when its appearance became much more comic and laughable. It had been so constructed as to maintain an erect position, and its various evolutions in the air were truly ludicrous. it gradually descended, until at length it fell on the top of one of the houses in Minerva-place, Old Kent-road, and was secured lay police-constable 146 P, who on Wednesday restored it to Mr. Bass. It was fortunate it had not fallen on the ground, for had it done so, no exertions of the police would have prevented the public from seriously damaging the representative of the law. A MAN LITERALLY DIssoLvED.—A young man, named Joseph Brammey, residing at Hadfield, in Glossop, Derby- Shire, and employed at the Dinting Vale Printworks, belonging to Mr. Potter, was lately found in a pan containing 300 gallons of caustic lye, which was found at a boiling heat. Mow he came in is not known ; but it is supposed that he went to the top of the pan to see if the lye was boiling, and, standing on the edge, must have fallen into the horrible grave. The deceased had not been seen about the premises after twenty minutes past ten o'clock. At a quarter-past one Robert Stubes went to stir up the liquor in the pan, when, to his great alarm, ho discovered same of the deceased's clothes, the body being quite eaten away by the liquor. Assistance was Immediately procured, and search made for the remains of the deceased. The liquor in the pan was thrown away, and at the bottom of it nothing but a few bones could be found, and these looking as if they had been In the ground a hundred years. The leather and soles of his clogs were eaten away ; a portion of his clothes that were made of cotton, had sustained little injury, and the irons and nails that had been In his clogs were found. The deceased's teeth were discovered all se parate. Strange to say, the deceased's heart was found by itself, quite sound. All that was collected of the body did not weigh 71bs., and if these parts had remained in the liquor three hours logger, not a particle would have been left. The deceased was 17 years of age. This dreadful circumstance has caused the utmost regret to the pro prietor of the print-works, who is well known for his benevolent dis position.—Derby Mercury. ROYAL MERSEY YACHT CLUB.—We understand that the sailing match for the Grand Challenge Cup and Ladies' Purse, with 50 guineas, came off yesterday, when the Victoria (an Irish yacht) belonging to Daniel Connor, Esq., of the R.C.Y.C., came in first, and the Edith, belonging to J. C. Ewart, Esq., came in second. —Lies pout Mercury of yesterday. NEW BRIGHTON REGATTA.—This affair came off yesterday. The purse of five sovereignty for four-oared ship gigs, to be rowed by boatmen, was woa by the 31idge, beating the Elizabeth, the Thomas, and the Gipsy. The purse of three sovereigns for two oared gigs was won by the Seagull, beating the Gipsy, the Elizabeth, the Brunette, and the Paine. The sculling motels for two sovereigns was won by the Quick, beating the Dwarf and the George. A great lumber of persons were present, and the usual attendants upon fairs, wakes, Scc., were on the ground. Everything was conducted in the Most orderly manner.—Lirerpool Mercury of yesterday. A contract has been concluded between the Go vernment and the Pacific Steam Navigation Company for the convey ance of mails on the western coast of South America, between Val paraiso and Panama. This is an important arrangement, as the snails being taken across time Isthmus to Chagres can be regularly brought by the vessels of the West India Royal Mail Company to this country, instead of performing the long circuitous route by Cape nom _ _ _ _ THE SWELL Moll AT THE FIGHT.—The fight be tween Bendigo and Caunt proved a profitable affair to the railway • companies, not so to many individuals. The train which reached Rugby from the Midland Counties line at three o'clock in the after noon of Monday last, brought in the third-class carriages upwards of rboo persons—characters of the lowest grade; the train having to stay at Rugby station an hour, afforded them an opportunity of plying their vocation, which they did in many instances on pers ons in the vicinity of the station. They then adjourned to the Railway • Inn, kept by Mr. J. Dadiey, and literally crammed it ; and while the , landlord and others were engaged in supplying creature comforta to their guests, some of the party went up stairs, broke open the cash boy, and stole the contents, amounting to nearly 4/., together with several articles of wearing apparel, and safely retreated. The train carried upwards of 1,000 persons to the scene of the fight.—Banbury - Mardian. REDUCTION OF TILE PRICE OF BaEAD.—The con tinuation of the favourable harvest weather has at length had the gratifying effect of producing a general reduction in the price of _ bread, of from a penny to three halfpence per loaf of Sibs. There are, however, some exceptions, as in the neighbourhood of Clerkenwell 'little or no alteration has yet been made. METROPOLITAN TM P ROVEM ENTs.- 7 Yesterday the new street called Endell-street, formerly Hanover and Belton-street, leading from Long-acre to Broad-street, Bloomsbury, together with the continuous line of thoroughfare, now named Bloomsbury-street, previously Plumtree and Charlotte-streets, were thrown open for the passage of vehicles, thus giving the long-desired direct line of nl- Milnication between the nor th ern and southern parts of the Metro " poly, It being now nearly a straight road, via Waterloo-bridge, from • the Elephant and Castle to Hampstead. The Duke of Richmond laid the foundation-stone - of the now free schools at Fochabers, in the of Gordon Castle, on Wednesday se'nnight, when•the Du7hes vi s ci o n f i l t riclunond and • the Ladies Lennox, and a large party from the ducal castle were pre , sent at the ceremony. Alas. FROST.—The paragraph which has appeared stating that "Mrs. Frost, the wife of the Newport con out as matron on board a convict ship to New South Wl le e t' ' s ' l ' ( I s goentle ' n r ely without foundation. 3 lrs. Frost, we learn, is by birth, tion, and fortune , a h i ghly -res p ecta b l e lady , enjoying the respect of • all who knew her, and is at the present thne residing at No. 14, Montpellier, Bristol.—Cheenham Chronicle. CELEBRATION OF HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO PERTH. —The third anniversary of this event was celebrated by the Society of High Constables, in the Star Inn here, on Friday evening last ; 3lr. David Ross, merchafit, moderator of the Society, in the chair, • supported by Baines Gray and Keay ; Mr. Alexander Scott, writer, .• croupier. The evening passed most harmoniously, with appropriate • toasts and songs, to which the landlord of the Star's good cheer not a • little contributed. —Perthshire Courier, Sept. 11. OFFENCES IN THE PARlES.—Yesterday the usual monthly statement of offenders detected and convicted for offences Committed in St. James's, Hyde, and the Green Parks, was exhibited at the various entrances into the Parks, according to an order of the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. From this document it appears - that, during August, there were five offenders—ono for cutting the Jests, fined five shillings ; four for indecency, three of whom were the magistrates each to three months' confinement and Sentenced by hard labour ; the other one fora similar offence, but of a more aggra vated description, for which he was tried at the last Middlesex Ses pions, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hail labour.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.._ Silt,—ln my letter of the 30th ult., addressed " to Viscount Jocelyn, M.P., Secretary to the Right Hon. the Board of Control," (which, together with my petition to Parliament, you did me the favour to insert in your paper of the 3d inst.), the following words are attributed to his Lordship as forming part of his statement in the House of Commons relative to my case :—lt was " found necessary to put Lieut. Hollis under arrest while out on his voyage to India. Lieut. Hollis broke that arrest—a very grave offence, and used harsh lan guage to his superior officer."—Morning Herald, Aug. 6. Yesterday, however, I had the honour to receive a letter from his Lordship, informing me that "the sentence which it is your intention to allude to, as having fallen from me in the course of my reply to Mr. Escott, was (to the best of my recollection), that Capt. Mignan considered himself justified in placing Lieut. Hollis under arrest on the outward passage to Bombay, which arrest was broken by Lieut. Hollis (a very grave military offence), who, at the same time made use of language which one gentleman would not be justified in making use cf to another, much less a subordinate to a supe rior officer. These I believe to be nearly the words I made use of in the debate, and not the sentence you attribute to me." Making every allowance for the difference—if there b 3 any —between these two statements, they clearly lead to one and the same conclusion, viz , " that there were just grounds for the arrest; that it resulted from some misconduct—some breach of discipline;" of which I complained in my letter as being contrary to the facts, and "most prejudicial to the merits of the case." How can it be said " that Captain Mignan considered himself justified in placing Lieutenant Hollis under arrest," when he never preferred the slightest charge in its justification—when he acted throughout males fide—malo animo?*—and when his whole conduct has been condemned—not by the Noble Secretary to the Board of Control, but by the Commander-in-Chief at Bombay—as "most irritating," "highly objectionable and censurable," and " neither caled for nor suitable from a commanding officer ?" I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient and obliged servant, WM. HOLLIS, Late Lieutenant Madras Army. FRIDAY NIGHT S GAZETTE. WHITEHALL, SETT. 10, 1845.

SIR,—A report having appeared in your paper of the 11th inst. re specting the trial and conviction of a Mrs. Bland (an actress), at the Middlesex Sessions on a charge of picking pockets in the streets of London, and it having been reported (somewhat gratuitously) that the husband of that person was an actor in the Dublin Theatre, I beg you will lose no time in doing me an act of justice by publishing this letter, which is particularly called for, inasmuch as I have had the honour of being a member of the Theatre Royal, Dublin, under the management of J. W. Calcraft, Esq., for the period of three years, during which time my wife has never left Dublin, and is at the present moment residing in that city. I also beg to say that I am the only perforjner of the name of Bland connected with the Theatre Royal, Dublin, although there are two or three minor theatres in the city to which performers of the same name may possibly be attached.' As it is sufficiently evident that the report in question is calculated to injure myself and wife, I trust you will comply wills the request of, Sir, your obedient servant, HARCOURT BLAND, of the Theatre Royal, Dublin. Theatre Royal, Bristol, Sept. 12, 1845. Camberwell, Sept. 9, 1845. • " The Court think it their duty, before closing the pro ceedings, to advert to the long and irritating correspondence entered into by Captain Mignan with Lieutenant Hollis, and continued after that officer had been placed in arrest ; and further to record their opinion, that the many frivolous com plaints preferred by Captain Mignan against that officer, and particularly the galling, and, as it appears to the Court, un warrantable taunt, marked B in page 25 of the Correspond ence, in a great measure led to those acts on the part of Lieutenant Hollis which have been made matter for their in. vestigation."—Opinion of the Court of Inquiry. Do. Perp.s pr Ct., No. 1 The FIGHT for the CHAMPIONSHIP. - The following " Remarks" on the Fight for the Championship, between Caunt and Bendigo, which took place on Tuesday last, are extracted from The Sportman's Magazine and Life in London, a spi rited and admirably-conducted REMAR weekly KS. publicatiou " " The style of both the men may be best judged from the particu lars of the rounds ; Caunt seemed over eager, and occasionally lost his temper, by which he threw away a chance which moderation, steadiness, and coolness might have given to him. Ills physical ad vantages—height, weight, length, and strength—were too great to allow of that deviation on his side which was accorded on the other; for it was impossible to repress a feeling for the boldness, dexterity, and quickness of the lesser man, whose escape from utter annihilation seemed little short of a miracle. Hence much of the imputed unfair ness. Yet we must here record our deliberate conviction that, although Bendigo was often sailing too near the verge of unfairness to be alto gether pleasant or proper, yet this only occurred in the earlier rounds, and that it must be viewed as a set-off for natural qualifications which the lesser man supplied by activity and skill. To have stood up and exchanged blow for blow In half-arm rallies with an overwhelming giant like his opponent must have quickly terminated the contest without a hope on the part of the lesser man. Indeed, it would have been the very hammering game at which a thorough staunch man like Caunt, with unmatched strength, must annihilate an adversary : he was, therefore, expected to shift and get down ; and it argues little for Caunt's skill or gift of hitting, that a man of twelve stone should fight for two hours and eight minutes, and leave off with a few slight contusions. Bendigo, however, declared, pre vious to entering the ring, that, win or lose, he would not fight again, a resolution we sincerely commend. Ile is thirty-three years of age, a time at - which professed pugilists, especially of the heavier weights, should retire. Ile may well repose beneath the shade of the laurels he has won, although we doubt not that there are many who would fain pluck the leaves from his brow. Both sides cannot be satisfied ; the London division, and the most expe rienced members of the corps pugilistique, have large odds in favour of Caunt, whose Sciencelit was declared, was so much improved that Bendigo would be served a la Nick Ward ; the result proved their error. Bendigo is a bolder man than Ward—ready, cool, and courageous ; the first fight with Ward, which Nick won, was but 11 or 12 minutes ; the second, which he lost, 47 minutes of manceuvring, while Bendigo, on the first occasion, fought Caunt 22 rounds and 47 minutes ; and on the second, after 75 rounds, occupying 1 hour and 20 minutes, he lost by getting down too quickly ; this third time ho contended for 128 minutes, a pretty convincing proof of the difference between Caunt's two competitors. Caunt will, of course, challenge the championship, and in the present dearth of big men we do not know of any one who could contest the claim. Independent of ill-health, we cannot think the Tipton Slasher, slow and navigatorisk, could have the ghost of a chance with so resolute and two-handed a fighter as the mighty Ben—mighty, although fbr the present, fallen. That the losers will grumble and seek to re vise the decision, we doubt not, but it is a duty which the press owes, :without fear, favour, partiality, or affection, to support ri gorously the decision of the appointed judge, when acting, as Mr. o—n unquestionably did, with perfect bond fides. If this is not done, a most dangerous and destructive precedent is introduced, which can involve no lesser consequence than the utter ruin of the ring. No one can impeach the uprightness of the judge, and the absurd rumours about the in tention to retain the stakes, divide them, or to adjourn the affair to another day and another trial, are as foolish as they are mischievous. If those who have always supported this authority are the first to renounce, deny, and invalidate it, what can be said ? That they are the worst enemies of the system they profess to uphold. In con clusion, we may observe that the result of the battle was known in London before eight, by means of pigeons and the telegraph. Many clever people, however, knew it for certain long before it took place. The lateness of the hour, half-past six—it was dark a little after seven—precluded the possibility of the second contest, that between Maley and Merriman, from being proceeded with. Indeed, as those worthies have proved rather long-winded in their former battles, it would be as well to give them a ' long day.' " STATE OF TRADE.—The demand still continues fair and steady. Wools remain firm. Lamb's wool yarns have again advanced hi. per lb., and are still scarce. There is a greatly diminished supply - of wrought country hose, arising from the circum stance of most of the hands being employed in the harvest. The present demand may be fairly expected to continue for two or three monts at least. —Leicestershire Mercury. CAUTION TO PRINTERS.—We advise printers to be on their guard against a tramp named M`Donald, an Irishman, who last week had a few days' work at our office. Ile had been kindly treated by the men, although without a card ; notwithstanding which, the fellow decamped with a couple of composing-sticks from the office (one marked "W. T. G., Swansea)." He offered the sticks for sale to some of the printers in the town, at the same time present ing a plausibly-written begging-letter, to which he had affixed Mr. D. Rees's name as a contributor for 4s. Gd. He effected his retreat before the loss of the sticks was discovered, otherwise he would, ere this, have taken up his quarters in the House of Correction. He is a seedy-looking fellow, about sft. Mrt, high, and wears a broad brimmed hat.— Cambrian. _ _ ( Sept. 12. Do. - do.

LORD PANMURE.—We regret to learn that this patriotic Nobleman was seized with serious indispotition last week., while at his shooting quarters, Minden, nigh the Grampians. Dr. Guthrie, of Brechin, the most eminent medical man in the district, has since been in daily attendance on his Lordship, who, it is to be earnestly hoped, will be enabled to rally from this attack.—Caledo nian Mercury. REBECCA AGAIN.—In carrying out the provisions of the late Act of Parliament relating to the Turnpike Trusts in South Wales some of the gates in the neighbourhood of Brecon have already been removed, the tolls reduced, and the distances between other gates are about being equalised. Among the latter the turn pike-gate near the ninth mile-stone on the Merthyr road, is to be re moved and a new toll-house erected this side of the Story's Arms. This building was last week in course of erection, and in a few days expected to he finished ; but to ! on Monday morning last, upon the workmen going to their work, the new toll-house had disappeared, and the men were struck with astonishment at the industry displayed by the paries who had in so short a period levelled their Work.— Hereortl Journal. METROPOLITAN FAIRS.—The fairs lately held and are now holding in various suburban districts of the metropolis, in the place of those held by ancient usage, which were suppressed a few years since by magisterial influence, are the speculation of a single individual, long connected with the show trade, who rents the land, and then sub-lets it. In several instances this has proved a profitable speculation. The Royal Devon and Cornwall Horticultural So ciety held its third and last meeting for the season on Thursday, in the assembly-room of the Royal Hotel, Plymouth. The display of flowers was large and beautiful, and comprised some very choice specimens of those now in season. There was an excellent display of fruit and vegetables also, especially of the former, which were the more abundantly furnished, probably, from the circumstance that the fruit was to form the principal attraction: at a grand dejeii a., which was to be held at four o'clock. The company was a brilliant and fashionable one, comprising most of the county families of South Devon and East Cornwall. The clejeGne was presided over by the Earl of Morley, who was supported by Major-General the Hon. 11. Murray, Admiral Pym, Thomas Gin, Esq., M.P., and a number of other gen tlemen. There was also a large attendance of ladies present, headed by the Countess of Morley, Stc. The Noble Chairman presided with considerable ability, and the usual loyal toasts were drunk on the occasion. About 200 sat down, and the pleasures of the day were closed in the evening by a dance. The Duke and Duchess of Roxhurghe will receive a large party at Fleurs Castle at the close of this month, when the Royal Caledonian Hunt meeting is to take place at Kelso, the Noble Duke being President this year. The Dowager Duchess is prolong ing her residence at Brighton. CHIMNEY ON FIRE.—In consequence of the great increase and prevalence of fire, from foul chimneys in the 'vicinity of Spitalfields, the churchwardens of Christchurch have published and distributed bills drawing the attention of the inhabitants to the sub ject. They quote the Act of 14th George 111., cap. 78, sec. 78, by which all lodgers, tenants, renters, or holders of apartments, arc liable to the expenses incurred in case of any alarm of f re, front such a cause, which may be recovered by the churchwardens by distraint upon the goods or chattels, if the amount be not paid n ithin fourteen days, and expressing their intention to carry the provisions of the Act strictly into operation. A GENTLEMAN BITTEN BY A RABID DOG.— Yesterday morning, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a serious ac cident occurred to Mr. Thomas Vandervelde, a law student, residing in University-street, Tottenham-court-road. It appears that the young gentleman had been fondling a pet dog of the terrier breed, when the animal suddenly made a spring, and bit him in the hand. Ile did not, however, at the moment pay any particular attention to the circumstance, attributing it to mere play. A few hours after wards, the arm becoming painful and Inflamed, he was induced, at the suggestion ofhis friends, to send for medical assistance, when it was found necessary both to excise, and afterwards cauterise, the injured parts. As the symptom; have since abated, strong hopes are entertained of Mr. Vantlervelde's recovery. The dog, having evinced unequivocal signs of hydrophobia, was destroyed without loss of time. ..... INORDINATE DRINKING th O e P bod ß y lt o A f BRANDY B 7 F i t i tr y oode F , l a V ge E d YorTus.—Last nielit at eight o'clock, Mr. Baker held a n i nquest at s t e li v e e C n i t t e y eu A ym rin ea s, lillwall, Poplar, on sea apprentice on board the ship Tigress, now lying in the West India expert dock. It appeared by the evidence, that on Thursday evening, about eight o'clock, the deceased, with three other youths, were invited on board the William Mies by Wm. Wenne cott, au apprentice of the latter ship, to partake of some brandy. They remained on board about an hour, during which brief space of time they drank between them three bottles of strong brandy. They drank the liquor out of a tumbler. Deceased, when he quitted the ship, appeared to be rather intoxicated, but he contrived to regain his own ship, where he was shortly afterwards seen by John Suther land, the night watchman in the dock, in the act , of taking off his boots, near the cat-head of the vessel. In the morn ing following, at about six o'clock, on one of the seamen of the Tigress going on deck, he found the deceased lying at the head of the ship quite dead and cold. Mr. Smith, surgeon, deposed that he was called to deceased. Ile found that he had been vomiting. He was quite dead. On being informed of the circumstances attend ing his death, witness inquired into the state of the other lads, when he was informed another named Dewes wits in an insensible state. He four 7h‘v.omuhrPostlY administered the necessary remedies ; he was, after haa providedunremitting attention, liquor,e t ion, was o nousnecrei seriously yt ill danger.aft after b eWeextre exces sive potations, but was enabled to attend before the Coroner to give evidence. The other two boys fortunately escaped without any very serious consequences. Witness attributed death to determination of blood to the head, brought on by inordinate draughts of brandy. The Coroner admonished the youths upon their conduct, and trusted sultof Verdict,ca the their Carousal would prove a serious warningthat the unfortunate tu to tf t o h r e t f a o t ere the r futur e .

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. EASTERN UNION.-IPSWICH AND BURY ST. EDMUND'S. IPSWICH, FRIDAY.—The first ordinary meeting of this Company was held at their o f f i ces, Brook.street, Ipswich, this day, at one o'clock, for the disposal of the general business of the Company ; after which, the meeting was made special, for the purpose of in. creasing the number of Directors named in the Act of Incorpora. Lion to fifteen, and also to apply to Parliament next session far powers to make a line to Norwich, diverging near Stowmarket, and for another to join the Northern and Eastern line near Cambridge. Mr. John Chevalier Cobbold, Chairman of the Board of DI rectors, having taken the chair, _ _ The SECRETARY (Mr. Saunders) read the report, which stated, amongst other matters, that they had much pleasure in announcing that Parliament has sanctioned so much of the undertaking, to which they had subscribed, as lies between Ipswich and Bury St. Edmund's ; the residue was postponed until next session. That it was a source of great congratulation to them, that in announcing the success of thus much of a railroad into Suf folk, the Directors could fairly treat of it as the commence.. ment only of a much more comprehensive scheme. Knowing the sentiments entertained by the proprietary, the Directors are pro ceeding to acquire the further necessary powers for extending the line to Norwich from Stowmarket, as originally intended. The pe. cuniary resources are already secured. With the deposit already paid, the Directors would be enabled to comply with the standing orders of Parliament, without a further call for that purpose. Of the large balance on hand, the Directors had invested at interest 34,5001. That the Directors had given their best attention to the proposals of another Company which would make a line from Ipswich to Yarmouth nearer to the coast ; but they could not be lieve it would remunerate its projectors, and declined to be engaged in supporting it. " The last scheme of extension to which your Directors beg your attention is the connecting link between Bury St. Edmund's and Cambridge. It is deemed by them of great importance to the interests of the county, and likely to be productive both of trading advantages to the towns it em. braces, and of a large increase of revenue to the lines of this company, reaching as they do the ports of England most favourably situated for continental intercourse. Already lines are projected, with every prospect of being successfully carried for ward, from Cambridge to Oxford, and from Cambridge to Worces. ter, in direct extension of communication with yourprojected Cam bridge line." The receipts and expenditure were next read, by which it ap peared that the funds of the company were in a very prosperous state, and left a balance of 39,600/. on hand. The Cimatdari then congratulated the shareholders upon the fact that they had received no opposition whatever from the land. owners along the line, although it proposed to pass through the beautiful estates of Sir William Mydleton, Mr. William Gurden, Sir P. Brook, Lord Ashburton, &c. ; and he was also glad Ito say that they had got a site for their station at Ipswich, free of ex. pense, from the Corporation. Resolutions founded on the report were also agreed to. GOOLE, DONCASTER, SHEFFIELD, AND MANCHESTER. Yesterday, the first general meeting of the Proprietors was held at the Guildhall Coffee-house, Mr. NV. G. Thompson in the chair. There was a numerous attendance of Proprietors. The report of the Directors, read by the Company's solicitor, after alluding to the various features of the line, as proposed in the last session, and to the recommendation of the Commons' Com mittee, that it be postponed until next session, concluded as fol. lows:—" There were 17,324 original shares issued, and that, after defraying all expenses attending the proceedings, there will remain a sum of about 8,0001. in hand; and as the capital, as originally estimated for the line, was 635,0001., the Committee propose to raise that amount on 31,750 shares of 201. each, instead of 25,400 shares of 251. each., and they recommend the following arrangement : That upon the 17,324 original shares issued, a further sum of It. 10s. be paid by the holders of the scrip, and that such holder be entitled to one new share for every four old ones hell by him, upon the payment of 21. 2s. each upon such new share, which will produce 64,2001. Os., a sum ample to meet the standing orders of Parlia. ment, and will leave about 10,000 shares for landowners and others interested." The CHAIRMAN said, so satisfied were the Committee of the Commons of the traffic case shown by the Goole and Doncaster line, that the evidence of the first witnesses was enough to suffice; the Chairman remarking that, however good their case might be, the Committee could not come to a decision until the lines in group X were adjudged. This the Directors looked upon as unjust. They had been opposed in Parliament by none so vigorously as the river Don Navigation. It was only natural for such a great mono poly to oppose them, seeing that the Goole and Doncaster would interfere with their enormous profits, which might be radily esti mated, when he told them that they' divided 1201. on every 100/. share, besides leaving a surplus, and being in the receipt of 34,0001. per annum. Their shares, which were worth 3,000/. when the Doncaster and Goole line started, were now worth 2,400/. Over tures had been made from other Companies to the Goole and Don caster, and they would be able, he believed, to make their own terms in a fortnight. The traffic returns, which they had taken between Goole and Doncaster, showed a revenue of 53,3731. per annum. The line could be made for 160,0001., and the re. turn upon outlay showed 25 per cent., without extending to Man. Chester. It was proposed by Mr. Wargen, seconded by Mr. Mocatta, and carried, that the Directors be empowered to re-apply to Parlia ment to make the line, to extend it, and make deviaticns, with a branch from Thorne to join the Great Grimsby line at Brigg. The following gentlemen were then confirmed in their office as Provisional Committee, on the motion of Mr. Laing, and seconded by Mr. 'Thornton :—Hon. F. H. Berkeley, M.P., Major Adair, Messrs. Downes, Wheat, Bird, Drain, Johnson, Heath, Dalmume, Wilson, Thompson, Hall, and Burge. After some discussion a resolution was passed, permitting any shareholder to retire on the payment of such amount as the Corn. mlttee might find him entitled to, on account of discharge of de posit money. A SPECIAL TRAIN.—Mr. T. Cook, Secretary of the Leicester Temperance Society, arranged with the Midland Company for a special train on Wednesday, to Derby, at the low rate of Is. for adults, and 6d. for children, there and back. It was primarily in tended for Sunday-schools, but open to the public ; and so nume rous were the applications for tickets, that it was found necessary on Tuesday to arrange for another train yesterday. Though Wednesday was the first day of the races, no fewer than 4,300 (of whom 1,700 were adults) presented themselves at the station. The train was divided into three parts, and the party returned safely, delighted with their excursion. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Since the late war Cork has never had such a force of ships and men within sight of its shores at one time than is now anchored at Cove. There are no less than three three-deckers, two of 120 guns and one of 110 guns ; five two-deckers, one of 92 guns, one of 90 guns, one of 84 guns, and two of 80 guns ; a frigate of 26 guns, a steam sloop of 6 guns; a steam-vessel of 2 guns, and two steam troop.vessels. Total of ships in her Majesty's service at Cork 13 sail, carrying 812 guns, and a force of officers, seamen, boys, and Royal Marines, amounting to above 7,000. During the past week the greatest activity has prevailed in the different departments of the Admiralty. The dockyards are being increased in number of artisans, and in quantities of stores of all descriptions. A' daily report is ordered to be made of the state of the advanced thirty sail-of-the-line, and all stores not perishable, and furniture not liable to deteriorate by being afloat, are to be put on board as soon as convenient. The steam guard ships are to be brought forward immediately; in fact, some of them have already been taken in hand. Notice for tenders from engineers has been issued, and the tenders for screw machinery for these steam guard ships will be sent into the, Admiralty from the various firms after the Ist of next month. The Lords of the Admiralty, new that they have put the ordinary into the most efficient state, are con centrating their attention on the conversion of the old line-of battle ships and frigates into steam guard ships, to be propelled by the screw. Their Lordships have only to see their own orders carried into effect in the spirit in which their measures were con ceived, without conceited objections and impertinent subordinate interference, and they will retain the golden opinions of all parties. The Satellite, 18, Commander Rowley, arrived at Buenos Ayres, from Monte Video, on the 4th of June, and left that on the 6th, to return to the former place. The Acorn, 16, Commander Bingham, arrived at Buenos Ayres, from ,Monte Video, on the 6th of June. The Firebrand, steam-frigate, Captain Hope, left Buenos Ayres, for Monte Video, on the 29th of May. The Vesuvius, steam-sloop, Commander O'Callaghan, arrived at Halifax, from Newfoundland, on the 24th of August, and left that port the same day. If M.

CORONER'S INQUEST. An inquest was held on Thursday afternoon at the Adam and Eve public-house, Eton, Bucks, before Mr. John Pacton, one of the de puty coroners for the county, on the body of a man named William Archer, twenty-nine years of age, who had held the situation of under-gardener for the last four years in the service of Mr. Gran • silk Penn, of Stoke.park, near Slough, and who met his death by drowning under the singular circumstances detailed in the following evidence. Mr. Penn and several of the most respectable inhabitants of the neighbourhood were present during the inquiry. The first witness examined was Mr. Charles Stewart Voules, solicitor, of Windsor, who deposed as follows :—I was returning to Windsor from a party at Slough, accompanied by Mr. Legh, between 1 and 2 o'clock on Tuesday morning, and on arriving at the turnpike-gate in the Slough road, I distinctly heard the screams of a female. On proceeding furthar I heard called out, in a woman's voice, " For God's sake, leave me alone, don't treat me so; let me get up : don't drag me:" On reaching Willowbrook, near Eton College, I saw a man (deceased) and woman standing together quietly in the shade. I asked the man what the disturbance had been about, when he replied, " Oh, nothing ; the woman who cried nut has just gone on before, so you are mistaken." I said, " That can't be, for I can see up to Fifteen Arch•bridge, and no one is there." I went up to the woman, and asked her what the man had been doing to her. She was then sobbing, and made no answer. I again put the same question to her, and she replied, " Nothing." I then said, " Well, if you are satisfied, we cannot be otherwise." I told the man he must be a great brute to ill-treat a woman at such an hour and in such a place, when he replied, " I have not ill-treated her, and I'll make you prove your words." We then left, but had not gone more than a few yards when the man came after vs, and after taking hold of Mr. Legh by the collar, and striking him a severe blow on the head, breaking his hat, he made several blows at me, and at last we closed. In the struggle which ensued lie got me on to the bridge, and when close to the low parapet he exclaimed, "D— you, I'll throw you over." I tripped him up and threw him upon his back, having previously sent Mr. Legh for a constable. I let him get up on his promising to go quietly, and on his telling me his name and who he worked for. He was no sooner on his legs than he again attacked me, and I a second time got him down, and so kept him until Mr. Legh returned with one of the Eton police, to whom I gave him in charge. When we reached the Chrlstophor Inn, at Eton, on our road to the station. house, I saw the man put his hand into his pocket and take out something, I told the policeman to open his hand, when he found in it a gardener's knife. I said, " What do you mean by that, you rascal I" The man turned to the policeman and said, " This per. son knocked me down in the road, cut me with this knife, and robbed me of my watch, and he has got it." When we reached Perkins's house, the inspector of the Eton police, I said to him, " Now, if the inspector knows you, you may go." He then ran off down the road, the constable after him, and just as they got out of my sight I heard a splash in the water. (The water referred to is a mill-stream, running nearly parallel with the Thames, very deep in the centre, and about 25 feet in width.) The constable came back, and said," lie is gone through the water." I then ran down to the stream, but as I could neither hear nor see anything of him, I thought he had escaped across to the osier bed. We then got a candle and lantern, and searched about for upwards of an hour without discovering any traces of him, and it was our opinion, from seeing some fresh wet weeds on the banks of the stream, that he had got out at that spot and escaped. I think the man was sober. Henry Carter, the constable who took the deceased into custody, stated that when the man started oi'towards the water he followed him and saw him go in, over a camp-shedding (or wharf). Wit ness afterwards saw him walking in the shallow water, close by the camp-shedding, a distance of 15 feet, and he then returned and gave the alarm that the man had got away. Witness was present during the search. • Mr. Granville Penn rose, and stated to the deputy.coroner that he had attended the inquest, not only as being the master of the unfortunate deceased, but as one of the magistrates of the county ; and as the man had met with his death while in the custody of the police he begged to suggest, in order that a correct conclusion might be arrived at, that the jury should view the place at which he had fallen into the water. This was assented to, and on the return of the coroner and jury, Samuel Perkins, inspector of the Eton police, was examined, and corroborated the evidence of Mr. Voules and Carter as to the search which was made to discover the man. This witness also deposed to the finding of the body at seven o'clock the same evening by means of drags, nearly in the centre of the stream, where the water was about 8 feet deep. Mr. William Lc gh, one of the magistrates of Windsor, who was with Mr. Voules at the time he was attacked by the deceased, was then examined. Tie stated that it was his impression, from what the policeman said, who bad seen the man go into the water, that he had got out again and escaped across the gardens of the neighbouring houses. This being the whole of the evidence, and the deputy coroner having summed up, the room was cleared for the jury to consider their verdict. The jury, after having been in consultation for half an hour, returned a verdict of " Accidentially drowned while escaping from the custody of a police.constahle." _ . The deceased received an excellent character from Mr. Penn, who stated that he had lived in his service for upwards of four years, and that during that time he had been a most quiet, peace able, and industrious man, supporting his widowed mother en tirely out of his earnings, and was much respected by his neigh. bours and friends. A subscription was made in the room for the mother of the de. ceased, the jury and witnesses handing over the fees they were en titled to to a relative of the poor woman for presentation. The man's watch, money, and other property found upon him, were given to the same party for the mother by the deputy coroner. - RAILWAY RETURNS.

It appeared by the evidence that about ten days ago, deceased had burst the fibular artery on the instep of the left leg. Proper remedies were applied, and the bleed ing was staunched. On Wednesday evening her husband left her to attend to his duty. On his return to his cabin in about a quarter of an hour, he found her undressed and seated in a chair apparently quite dead ; upwards of a quart of blood had issued from her instep. Iler left stocking had jest before been removed from her foot. Air. Millie, surgeon, stated that he was called to deceased. He found her quite dead: Upon examining her leg he found that the recent wound had broken out afresh, and that hastily removing her stock ing from her swelled log had removed the scar from the wound, and the artery had recommenced bleeding. Witness attributed death to exhaustion caused by excessive haemorrhage.—Verdict in accordance with the mcdi al testimony. HER MAJESTY'S STEAM YACHTS AT TREPORT. When the Victoria and Albert royal yacht, and her little tender the Fairy, were at Treport, the French Royal Family were much pleased with their appearance, but especially with that of the Fairy, built of iron, and propelled by the screw. The Prince de Joinville visited the Fairy frequent'y, and on one occasion with Prince Albert, when his Royal Highness introduced. Mr. Penn, the constructor of the engines of the Fairy, who, by royal command, was on board that vessel during her Majesty's visit to the continent. Mr. Penn accompanied that gallant young Admiral the French Prince all over the little yacht, and into the engine-room, when some portions of the ma chinery were taken to pieces at his desire. Prince de Joinville dis played an intimate acquaintance with the most minute details of the screw machinery, and expressed his firm belief that a very short time would elapse before every man-of-war should be fitted with the screw propeller. NEW SCOTTISH SHIRE.—When in the county of Durham a few weeks ago, we met a farmer, who showed us a sheep dog which he said came from Scotland. On being asked what part of Scotland it belonged to, he said it cane from Gaelicshire !—Scots mon.
