The information is derived from letters received in the course of Thursday • and Friday at Lloyd's. They are as followS:-- PwELLHELLI, MARCH 13.—For the last eight-and forty hours we have had terrible gales of wind, with heavy showers of sleet and rain. At about twelve • o'clock a large three-masted ship was observed to bring to an anchor at the entrance of Studwell Road. In about an hour she broke adrift, and was instantly carried over the rocks with great violence on the' westernmost of the Studwell islands. The moment she struck, the whole of the masts fell over the .sides, and in the course of an hour the ship broke asuaider in several parts, and riot a vestige was to be seen. 'The gale not abating, it was dangerous to launch a boat from the beach, and it is sadly feared that the chief portion of the crew were drowned. She was named the Caroline, belonging to Liverpool, bound - to Africa, with a yalpable cargo. Another letter, dated March - 14, confirms nearly the whole of the above. It adds, « that eleven of the crew saved themselves by taking to the ship's boats, but the remainder, thirteen in number, perished.. No portion of the cargo has been washed on shore. Near Milford Haven, on Tuesday morning, a large French smuggling schooner, was totally wreaked on the rocks about half-a-mile from the harbour, and most of the unfortunate fellows on board met with a dreadful fate. The vessel, which was laden with several hundred tubs of brandy, &c., was, it is supposed, being run ashore by the crew, they taking advantage of the tempestuous state of the weather, in order to run their boats, but she unluckily struck on the rocks (sunken) and immediately went down, carrying with her seven persons, who were drowned. The remainder of the crew, four in number, • saved themselves by being washed ashore on the bottom of a small boat. The name of the vessel cannot be as - certained; and; what appears strange, the survivors re fuse to give the slightest information. Her loss, with the cargo, is estimated at 6,0001. The remainder, of the losses along . the coast and at sea since Sunday fast, at which time the storm com menced, are, we regret to state, of a most extensive cha racter. They are as follows Off Staithes, on Sunday night, at about ten o'clock, a large heavily-laden brig (name unknown) suddenly cap sized and disappeared in deep water. The crew went with her (supposed to be nine or ten in number), and perished. The vessel had a white streak painted over her bulwarks, but no other mark could be observed. The sloop Ann Jenny, of Faversham, was totally lost during the gale of the 28th ult , with all hands, consist ing of seven seamen, most of whom are married men, and have left large families. On Sunday morning the brig Symmetry, belonging. to Sunderland, was lost be tween that port and Whitby, in consequence of coming in collision with another vessel which was on her voyage from London, and which happily saved the crew.. The vessel had a cargo of coals aboard, and her loss is corn puted at 2,500/. At Whitby, on Wednesday night, a brig foundered, about four miles distant, to the east of the harbour, with . all on board. At Ramsay, in the Isle of Man, a vessel is sunk in the bay, about three miles off the land, sup posed to have been run down in the course of Monday night ; no tidings obtained of her crew. At Newport, in Monmouthshire, two vessels were lost on the same night. These were the sloop Dispatch (Baker, master), and the schooner Matilda (Tanford, master), of the same port. These wrecks are sunk at the entrance of the River Usk. One of the seamen of the former was drowned. nANK OF ENGLAND, Msacti 12, 1844.

John Burgess and Son, having been, many years honoured with such die-. tiuguished approbation, feel every sentiment of respect towards the public, and earnestly solicit them to inspect "Ille labels previous to purchasing what'they conceive to he of their make, which they hope will prevent many disappointments.

PROVIDENT LIFE OFFICE, 50, REGENT- G REAT BRITAIN • MUTUAL LIFE AS SURANCE SOCIETY, tion arises. Supposing that the Ecclesiastical Court were still open for the admission of the case, who ought to pay th e h eavy cos t s o f a su it for the removal of the delinquent ? We know who must in the present state of the law pay these costs — not the delinquent, not the patron who has pre senterl the delinquent, or the patron's representatives, not the Crown, which, as representing the people and the Church, is the ultimate gainer, none of these—but the bishop—the bishop who is thus required to protect the Church, not merely by vigilance in watching for offenders but by punishing th e offender, proprio marti. Is this fair ? Is it just that the Bishop should be punished by a heavy fine, we shall see how heavy, for the offences of the man of whom, in the majority of cases, he knows nothing'; whom he either finds established in his diocese, or is com pelled to receive from the hands of a patron ? Is it politic thus to impose a penalty upon the Bishop's vigilance, and to make it thus his interest to con nive at the offences of those whom he is appointed to superintend ? This interest, we are firmly convinced, world not have the slightest weight with any one Bishop of the Right Reverend Bench of the United Church, as it is now filled ; but we may not always have such Bishops ; and even now, the consideration that in denouncing the offences of one of his clergy to a Bishop, you put your hand deep into his Lordship's pocket, must occasionally prevent such denunciations and • screen offenders. If the thing happens but occasionally and yarely, it is be- Cause 'offences are rare inged:- But Were the state of affairs different, the fear of ruining-the Bishops would frequently make good men pause before calling for an exercise of the episcopal 'authority. About ten years ago . the public was scandalised by a case not very unlike that of Marsh—such cases occur about once in ten ears among 15,000 clergy men •!—the case of Dr. Free. We have heard, and we believe, that the removal of that wretched man from the Church cost his suc cessive diocesans, Pelham and Kaye (for the litigation ran through two incumbencies), no less a sum than thirteen hundred pounds. Nor are we quite certain that the suit came to a regular termination; for Free was run over and killed in Gray's Inn lane in a state of drunkenness, much about the time when the suit would regularly have ended. Be, this, however, as it may, the removal of this unworthy person cost thirteen hundred pounds, paid by his two Bishops ; and as Marsh is a much richer man, it would be perfectly within his power to make his removal more expensive to the Bishop of Peterborough. We regret that the Church cannot be relieved of the unworthy Rector of Barnack ; but we own that our regret is somewhat alleviated by the -considera tion that the escape of that unworthy per son spares the Bishop of Peterborough a fine of 1,0001., and it might be 2,0001. We have t bought it right to direct public attention to this view of the question, because it seems to us a monstrous thing to throw upon the Bishop the whole expense of the expulsion of unworthy clergy men. There is no other such anomaly ; everywhere else the public pays the services rendered to the public, or, as we suspect, the public would be worse served than it is. The Bishop only is expected to give his money for the public good. As it is likely that the subject will come before Parliament, we hope that this important point will be considered. lity EAST INDIA HOUSE, 31Altai 13, 1844. gE COURT of DIRECTORS of the EAST Thy, INDIA - COMPANY do hereb give Notice-- tk rt ,..* a Proprietor of East India Stock y_ has postponed, until the it tih General Court of the said Company, appointed to be held 'Taoti: na e I nLeadenlizill-street, on WEDNESDAY. the . 20th instant, n or whi c h he had previously given n o ti c e— v iz.: tili t i l q4 L the dispatc of Loud Auckland, of the 17tNov., 18, by bis Lordship h rejected the proposed plan oft he Benga 3 l B Go t, t4;tent, and recommended • the annual money, payment of 6,000/. halmsl ef Juggernaut (to which recominendation th . e Di pented by theiz dispatch of die 2d June, 1840) be considered l 'ike,‘". °4r t . ef"Priiiiiietors, on a motion for abrogatilig - SUch money upon the ground of no original pledge or engagement having t ottco us r-given for the same by, or on behalf et, this Company, as er 7--alleged by Lord Auckland in kis Dispatch." : 1 441 — ",,a11er Proprietor has given notler—that at the said Quarterly " call the attention of the Proprietors to the it A PPealsfrom the Courts •of Sudder Adawlut, in India, to b3re'Ar'Y Council, with the view to the substitution of a less expen— That I I regards the law administered in the Native Courts, of a. tit Court of ultimate Appeal." • tott y a l' a ther Proprietor has given notice of his intention to submit h: 1 11 ,n8 motion at the slid Quarterly General Court, viz. : h 'here be laid before the Court of Proprietors Copies of all lihk.t• of Proceedings of the Court of- Directors, together with all 441-4 . - ots hat i„ , t a,,aY have been recorded by Individual Directors on the The Right Hon. the.

Credit given for half the amount of the first five Annual Premiums, by which means Assurances may be 'effected with the least possible present outlay, and after payment of the arrears, the Policy-holder will become entitled to participate in the entire profit of this Institu tion, precisely in the same manner as if he had paid the whole amount of his premiums in advance, in the usual way. Thus, for example —a person in the twenty-fifth year of his age, instead of paying 2/. 6s. per annum for an Assurance of 1001., would be required to pay 1/. 3s. only during the first five years, when, on payment of the arrears of Premium, amounting to 5/. 155., his share of the Profits would be such as to reduce his future Annual Pre miums to very little more than the half Premium of 1/. 3s. originally paid by him.

BY THE HALF PREMIUM .PLAN only one-half el the first seven years' premium is required, the other half being payable at at the convenience of the assured ; thus allowing a Policy to be continued for seven years at one-half of the usual rate, or to be dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice, and entitling the assured, seven years hence, when loss of health may prevent him floe• effecting a new Assurance, to continue a Policy at a rate of premium applicable to an age 'seven years younger. The Half-premium plan of Assurance, as practised by this Company, thus enables persons to retain to their own use the one-half of the premiums for the first seven years, at 5/. per cent. interest. Thus, suppose the or dinary premium for an assurance of 5001. to be 10/., the first pay ment by the half-premium plan will be five guineas, being the one half of the 101., and interest for the retained half; and, if death should occur in the first year, the sum of 5001. would be paid less the 51. retained. The assured may thus have the use for the first year of Si.; fbr the second, of la ; and so on till the end of the seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 351., may either be repaid, or retained at 51, per cent. interest until death, when the 351. wound be subtracted from the 5001. then payable by the Company.

The traffic which exists between Dublin and.the south and south western districts of Ireland, fully justifies the construction of a main trunk line of railway from Dublin to Cashel, with a branch to Athy and Carlow: From this main trunk the country is most favourable for branches to Clonmel, Limerick, and Galway, and of being exten ded to Cork, as pointed out in the Report of Mr. Macneill. - The country to be traversed is singularly favourable for the con struction of a railway, and, with a slight variation, is the line recom mended by the Government Commissioners in their Report, present ing no difficulties or obstacles of any kind, and requiring but little Cutting or-embanking, which enables the Engineer to pledge himself that the cost will not exceed 1,300,0001. for the entire work, including stations, carrying establishment, Sco.. complete, being at the rate of 11,0001. par mile. From Mr. Macneill's great professional experience, and from the successful and economical manner in which - he has just brought the 14 üblln and Drogheda Railway works to a completion within his es timate, the Committee has every confidence that the calculations fur nished by him for the present work will\be found sufficient. It is fortunate that the nature of the country through which the line is to be made is such, that, in the event of the atmospheric principle of transit being found nom experience to be preferable to that of loco motive engines, it may be applied to this Railway without any in convenience or disadvantage, as no deeper cuttings or embankments would he required fhr the locomotive, than would be prudent or desir able for the atmospheric principle. The traffic is probably not exceeded on any line of equal extent in the United Kingdom at present unoccupied by a railway, and holds out very great inducements for the investment of capital. The re turns on which the calculation of trafile is founded, are taken from those published by the Railway Commissioners, and which, by a subsequent inquiry, are found to be considerably underrated.

WEST LONDON RAILWAY. At a General and Special General Meeting of the Share holders of the West London Railway Company, held at the Com pany's offices, 11, Abchurch-lane, in the City of London, on Wed nesday, the 6th day of March, 1844, it was unanimously resolved :- 1. That this General and Special General Meeting of the Share holders of the West London Railway Company, called and sum moutd in pursuance of the provislons of the Company's Act of.

Herbert Marsh—whose course Of scandalous immorality has excited a very painful sensation in all quarters where clerical consistency is regarded as essential to the purposes for which the Christian ministry was instituted, and the Church exists—is not likely to escape the consequences of his conduct. Had the law been powerless to punish such conduct by protracted suspension, or absolute depriva tion, the scandal would have passed from the indivi dual to the body. The Church must have received deep, if not incurable, injury, both in character and efficiency, by this serious defect of discipline within her pale.. Had this habitual frequenter of houses of infamy—this intimate associate and paramour of the "dress girls" of these establishments of vice—who in prosecuting one of them for extorting large sums of money from his purse, by threats of exposing his Conduct to the public eyo, was compelled to become the herald of his own shame, the narrator of his own gross and continued immoralities—we say, had the Bishop of Peterborough's exposition of the state of discipline in the Church been established as the actual state of the law, and the Rector of 13arnack and Prebendary of Peterborough remained unaf fected in his clerical office, and in the receipt of the revenues of his valuable ecclesiastical preferments, every friend of the Church of England would have mourned the inefficiency of her discipline, while her enemies would have exulted over her humiliating posi tion, and Infidels would have triumphed in her dis grace. This, happily, is not the case. A reference to the report of what took place last evening in the House of Lords in this painful ease, will show that the Church Discipline Act is not quite so incompetent to deal with such delinquencies as the Bishop of Peterborough had supposed. Lord Campbell clearly showed that though the Act barred proceedings against Mr. Marsh, on account of the time which had elapsed—in this respect the Act may be designated " a statute of limitations"—yet that the Bishop is not tied up from instituting . proceedings to remove from the Church so unworthy a minister, though -the offences he has committed were perpetrated out of the diocese in which his living is situated. It is matter of regret that the means of reaching cases of disgraceful conduct in clergymen—notwith standing the improvement effected by the Church Discipline Act—are still very inferior to the laws and regulations for the same purpose, by which the other institutions of the country are protected from the con sequences of having persons unworthy of their profes sion fastened upon them. In the army or navy, a charge against an officer is immediately placed in a course of investigation. A court-martial is directed to be held. " Conduct unworthy the character of an officer and a gentleman," if proved against the indi vidual thus accused, is necessarily followed by "dis missal from the service." If the case be marked by circumstances of aggravation, he is declared "hereby incapable' of again serving her Majesty in any military 'or' civil capacity." Why might not the " Commission of Inquiry, which the Church Disci pline Act empowers the Bishop to issue, have authority to pronounce upon the case-s-not merely to the extent of determining that there is sufficient ground for proceeding against the party, but upon the facts stated—the finding being subject to the revision of the Archbishop, who might, in serious cases, summon to his assistance two or three Bishops, by whom the whole proceed ings might be reviewed, and the finding of the Commission of Inquiry upon the facts either confirmed or modified. Surely, conduct un worthy of the character of a clergyman and a Christian, ought to be dealt with as promptly, and the party proved to have committed it be deprived of his spiritual functions as entirely, as " con duct unworthy of the character of an officer and a gentleman," certainly incurs dismissal from the army or navy ! So strict was the practice of the early Church with reference to the morals of its clergy, that a minister once deprived of office for any gross scandal—although, upon affording proofs of peni tence, he might be received back to its communion— was -never restored to his clerical functions. The discipline might be severe ; but it was salutary. Though individuals betrayed into vicious indul gence might suffer deeply—in some instances, perhaps, tco deeply—for their faults, yet the effect was benefiCial. The Church was thus pre served from the reproach which immorality in its ministers never failS to occasion. The offending member was cut off, that the whole body might avoid the Scandal and contamination of his retention. With one more remark we shall dismiss this unwelcome sub ject. The Bishop of Peterborough's explanation of, and apology for, his non-interference in the case of Mr. Marsh, when first brought before him, will be read with regret. His Lordship was made acquainted with the circumstances—if not to the full extent, yet to a sufficient extent to show that great profligacy had been committed by a clergyman of his diocese and a dignitary in his Cathedral church. He appears, how ever, to have been rather influenced by feelings of sympathy for the mother of the offender, than sti mulated by duty to investigate the scandal. A tre mulous apprehension of the consequences to the re latives, should he be compelled to exert himself in the matter, restrained him from performing his duty to the Church of which he is, an overseer. The respon sibility of acting in such a case ought to be removed from an individual, however elevated, and transferred to a number of persons, on whom should devolve the duty of acting promptly and efficiently in such matters. If the law be capable of reaching Mr. Marsh's case, we presume, after what took place last night, that it will be immediately enforced—in mercy both to him and the Church of which he has proved himself unworthy. If it be defective, and thus suffer• him to escape, a very strong case for increased powers is supplied. The necessity of a more vigorous discipline could not be more clearly established. If there ever was a time when flagrant misconduct in clergymen could be allowed to pass unvisited with the severest censures from those who are constituted the guardians of its purity, that time has passed away. The only security of the Church, as a na tional institution, is found in the estimation in which it is held for character and efficiency by the nation ; and those are its best friends who labour to preserve it from whatever tends to lower it in public opinion. STANDARD. --The unhappy case of Mr. Marsh was again noticed in the House of Lords last night. Lord Campbell expressed an opinion that the Bish o p of Peterborough was mistaken in supposing that he could not take cognisance of the offences of his clergy, if committed beyond the limits of his diocese. The Noble and Learned Lord, however, did not dispute the other objection to a proceeding against Marsh — the lapse of time ; this objection must, therefore, be considered as insurmountable. The Bishop of Peterborough thanked Lord Campbell for the infor mation he had communicated, and wasted an eloquent and complete vindication upon his own conduct, which needs none. It is now quite too evident that the Bishop has no power of remov ing Marsh from the Church, let his Lord ship exert himself as he may ; but here another ques- WELSH MELODIES. Mr. Kibbey delivered the second of his course of lectures on the above subject at the Music Hall, Store-street, on Friday evening last, on which occa sion he was assisted by Misses Cubitt, Thornton, and Porter ; Messrs. Lesson, Ellis Robert, Welsh harper, and Talhaiarn, the penillion singer. Mr. Kibbey appears to be deeply versed in Druidic lore, and as familiar with the writings, history, and character of Taliesin, as Mr. Wilson is with those of his favourite, Burns. The Welsh melodies generally are of a-melancholy cast, and the mode adopted by Mr. Kibbey to intro duce the - different airs tends to depress the spirits of his audience, which are enlivened only by the very superior performance of Mr. Roberts on the triVe harp, #nd the _peuillion singing of Talhairttri. ' The • perfoymanees of the . two latter were most rapturously . 4pplauded and unanimously encored. National Music being the fashion of the day, we entertain very little doubt that the beautiful melodies of Cambria will soon become very popular favourites. To give them a fair chance, however, such as Glyndwr's war-song and theprophecy of the inspired bard, they should be entrusted to a male singer, and we would re commend Mr. Kibbey to be rather less senti mental, and to introduce some lively anecdotes, of which there 'is no dearth in the principality. ETHNOLOGICAL SOCIETY. At the meeting on Wednesday, Sir James Clark, Bart., M.D., and Messrs. G. Dressier, H. S. Cuming, James Tonnere, and T. T. Spicer were elected ,members. . • After -announcing the donations since the last eeting, which were very numerous, the Secretary n proceeded to read the paper for the evening—" On the Yamfid and Galan tribes of Turkomania, by the Baron Clement Augustus de Bode," the fruits of his personal observations of this most interesting but im perfectly known people. The Goklans inhabit the country to the west of the Alburs, and the Yarnfids to the west of the Goklans, up to the eastern shores of the Caspian Sea. Of the former, there were some years ago 12,000 families, but they are greatly thinned; of the latter, there are now between 40,000 and 50,000 families. The Goklans asribe their origin to two brothers, while the Yamals are said to be the de scendants of four brothers. They follow the creed of Mahommed, possess corn-fields, rice plantations, and vegetable gardens, and visit the bazaars of Asterabad to exchange the fruits of their industry, not only in this respect, but in goods they manufacture, such as felt and woven carpets, as well as sheep and horses from the live stock they rear, for the silks of Anezane and the cottons of Khorassan. "Of the Turkoman character," the Baron "regrets that he could find but very few redeeming qualities to palliate the evil propensities of their nature." The Turkomans ob serve a difference in their children by Turkoman mothers, and by the Persians, whom they capture, and the Kasakhs, whom they purchase from the tizbecks of Khiva. They of the pure race enjoy privileges of which the half-breds are deprived. For instance, they are obliged to choose wives. from among themselves, or from the Persians and Kantlihs. The Turkomans are Mongolian featured, by no means ill-looking, and a large proportion of the younger of the female community are considered by the Baron " as fair specimens of pretty women." The lads marry at fourteen and fifteen, and the girls at ten and twelve, but they are maintained by their parents for many years afterwards. The greatest respect the Turkomans can pay to the dead is to bury the body immediately. Among the Yamtids there are individuals who possess upwards of 1,500 sheep, 200 camels, 30 mares, and as many captive human beings. They are great horse-racers and chess players. The President, in adjourning the meeting to the 10th of April, when a paper by Captain T. Postarus, " On the Biluches of Sinde,' is the -sub ject, read the following extract from the Journalfka Deba,ts of March 8, as an interesting feature in the progress of ethnology in France :—" M. le. Prince de Joinville lately gave a private audience to the Council of the Ethnological Society, composed of Messrs. 3i ilne Edwards, Charles Lenormant, D'Avezac, Imbert des Motelettes, and Gustave d'Eichthal. The Prince conversed with them on the means necessary to be pursued in order to collect from all quarters of the globe materials for the study of the various races of mankind; and declared his in tention of affording his active assistance in furtherance of the objects of the Society." The sub'ect of the Baron's paper just now is particularly interesting, as it makes us acquainted with the people with whom Dr. Wolff will have to deal in his perilous undertaking in search of Col. Stoddart and Capt. Conolly. TRIAL OF THE MURDERER OF THE MARQUIS OF NORMANBY'S GAMEREEPER.—George Lowther and Mat thew Pearson yesterday took their trial at York, for the murder of John Moffatt, the head gamekeeper to the Marquis of Normanby—the first as principal, and the second as aiding and abetting. The facts of this melan choly case, arising out of the operation of the Game-laws, are too fresh in the minds of our readers to require repetition. The jury found Lowther guilty and acquitted Pearson. The Judge, in passing sentence of death upon the wretched man, said that he had been convicted on the clearest testimony of depriving a fellow-creature of life, and that he could not hold out to him the slightest hope of a relaxa tion of the law in his case. Pearson was then called upon, and admonished by the Learned Judge, who trusted that the unhappy end to which his companion would soon come would operate as a warning to him, and would be the means of in ducing him to abstain from 'following the unlawful practice which had led to this melancholy investigation. VENERABLE BEEF.—At the Lamb and Swan ordi naries, at Honiton, on Saturday last, there was a rump of beef dressed from a cow that was fed by Mr. Dommett, of Churchstan. ton, and sold last Churchington fair. This beast was known to have been let in a dairy thirty-one years ago, and was thirty.eight years old when slaughtered. Not witstanding her mature age, the beef .was deliciously tender. A grazier, who dined at one of the houses, tells us that he never ate more delicious beef. —West o England COMerratit% Accounts were on Thursday last received from Con stantinople, dated Feb. 19, containing the melancholy loss of a Turkish brig in the Gulf of Saros during the heavy gales. The captain and six of his crew were saved ; but the remainder on board, consisting of thirty four passengers, many of whom were females, and six seamen, ,were drowned. • . Information has been received at Lloyd's from'Capt. Dixon, belonging to the Alpha, of Sunderland, of the total loss of a brig, with all bands. Captain Dixon re ports as follows:—On Saturday. last, about half-past one o'clock p.m., whilst proceeding from Sunderland to • Gravesend, and when bearing about five miles W.S.W., his attention was suddenly called to a vessel, which im mediately sank with all hands. The wind at that time was blowing tempestuously, and the vessel was some distance ahead of the Alpha: Captain Dixon, however, could distinely see ' that her topsails were flying . as if the sheets had been broken with the fury of the gale. He „sailed as fast as he possibly could to get to her ; whilst so doing lie saw her turn completely over, and the crew, by some means, got upon the broadside. At this time Captain Dixbn ha& got within seven or.eight yards of her, but he was not. Billy aware, until he saw her turn over, that she needed" assistance, therefore the lines were not ready. 'Five or six minutes only elapsed from the vessel turning over till she went down. •On the side seven persons could be , seen, and w hen the ship sunk one man struck out, and was teen struggling violently for life ; it is supposed that he perished with the rest of the crew. The name of the , ' wreck . is unknown, but she was laden. with coal, and mime:- of the crew of the Alpha state that she had Searliorouthi •. on her stern. HIGHLANDERS IN INDIA_ Seldom does the Indian mail arrive without bringing sorrowful tidings to some of us; and we feel ourselves called on, at present, to notice an event which is deeply deplored in this place. This is not the first time we have had to notice our brave townsman, Captain George G- M. Cobban, of her Majesty's 50th regiment of Foot; bnl we have now the melancholy task of recording his death.. He fell in one of the last charges which completed Gen. Grey's brilliant victory at Punniar on the 29th Decem ber. While gallantly leading on his company to capture some guns, which were keeping up a most destructive fire, he received a grape shot in the chest, when close tcs one of those guns ; and his commanding-officer, Lieut.- Colonel Anders on , was severe l y woun d e d by the same: ball. In the language of a friend (his intimate acquaint ance, Major Petit), it must be some consolation to his: relations to know, that, "the service, by the death of Captain Cobban, has lost an excellent officer and a gal lant soldier, and the regiment been deprived o f a friend universally beloved and sincerely regretted." His body was carried into camp, and buried the next evening. Among those mentioned with approbation by Sir Hugh Gough, in his dispatch to the Governor-General, is Lieutenant W. Fraser Tytler (son of Sheriff Tytler). and who is Deputy-Assistant-Quartermaster-General ; Major Grant (also a native of this district), the Deputy- Adjutant-General of the army; and Lietitenant Mac donald (son of our late respected townsman, Dr. Mac donald) of the 2d Madras Light Cavalry. From a private letter, we learn that Lieutenant Macdonald behaved with - great gallantry. In personal conflict he severely wounded two of the enemy, and slew a third, whose sword he secured as a trophy of his success. He acted as one of the aides-de-camp to Sir Hugh Gough, and had the honour of communicating the result of the battle to the Governor-General, Lord Ellenborongh, whom he also conducted to the tent occupied after the victory by Sir Hugh Gough.—lnverness Courier. FRIENDLY RELATIONS OF FRANCE AND ENGLAND. —The Moniteur publishes the following paragraph I—" In the night of the 29th of January last the French corvette of war Creole, commanded by Capt. Jam, on her way from the linens to Smyrna, ran aground in the bay of Caristo, in the island of Negro.. pont. The weather was extremely tempestuous, and the night very dark. On the first intimation of the event, Rear. Admiral Le Ray, Commander of the Levant station, hastened to send to the assistance of the Creole the war steamer Castor, of I 20. horse power, and Capt. Sir C. Sullivan, Commander of her Britannic Majesty's ship of war the Formidable, who was also at the Pirwus, placed at hie disposal the Vesuvius, a steamer of the British navy, of 320. horse power. On the 27th of the same month the latter steamer, com.. manded by Mr. Ommaney, brought back the Creole to the Pincus. Rear. Admiral Le Ray speaks in high terms of the cor diality and readiness with which Captain Sir C. Sullivan offered him the assistance of the Vesuvius, and of the services rendered on that occasion to the French navy by Captain Ominanney. He has further addressed the expression of his gratitude to Admiral Owen, Commander.in.Chief of the naval forces of her Britannic Majesty in the Mediterranean. Admiral Owen hastened, in an order of the day, to make known to the officers of his squadron the letter of Rear-Admiral Le Bay, and, in expressing his satisfaction at the readiness with which officers of the British navy had rendered assistance to a French vessel in danger, he announced that he considered it his duty to lay before the Lords of the Admiralty the honourable testimony borne by the common 'er of the French station in favour of Captain Ommanney." The Arnwricain de Brest of the 9th inst. contains the following :—" It is known that the French and English Go vernments have adopted the generous principle of allowing the widow or heirs of the subjects of either nation who have fallen vic. tiros of accidents, occasioned by the servants of the other, a pen. sion at least double that which they would have obtained from their own country under similar circumstances. It is in virtue of that praiseworthy reciprocity that the'British Government has just granted a pension of 500 f. to Marie Perrinc Bedfort, the widow of Pierre Jean Baudouard, accidentally tilled at Newfoundland in July last lay a shot fired from one of the coast guard boats of the English station."

Charges him with " devilment," " duplicity." conspiracy," " violation of solemn pledges," " unparalleled meanness and baseness," " villainy in its blackest form i"--talks of his " hideout grins," and calls him- the " veriest rascal," " the most ungrateful and incomprehendble scoundrel on earth I" Leeds Times. VICTORIA PARK.—AII doubts of the commence ment of operations in the park during the present spring, are re moved by the Crown having given permission to the marke t gardeners to resume possession of their property till Michaelmas. day, and having rented all the pasture land to Mr. Ridge, a large proprietor, till the End of October. The terms for the purchase of Bonner's-hall, which was the property of Guy's Hospital, and has been the subject of much litigation and delay between the Crown and the hospital, have been finally arranged this week. It is, how ever, considered likely that workmen will be at once employed to stake out the boundaries of the park, and that the excavations for the drainage will immediately commence. CONVERSION OF SCOTT MURRAY, ESQ., M.P. FOR BUCKS, TO THE ROMAN CATHOLIC FAITIL—OxForp,MAscm 15.—A sensation has been produced in the University by let ters received among the Tractarians from Rome, with infor mation that Scott Murray, Esq., 8.A., of Christ Church, has just conformed in that capital to the Romish faith. It is anticipated that the Hon. Gentleman, who has sat in Par liament for Bucks since the commencement of the present Parliament, will forthwith vacate his seat for that county. Mr. Murray belonged to the Young England_ party, but had paired off till after the Easter recess. His vote is of coursei suspended until he has taken the oaths prescribed for Roman Catholic Members.
