Now ready at every Library, in 3 vols., •MISER'S SECRET. the floor, and he did not fall on to his heal. Prisoners under sentence of death are not at all fettered. By the CORONER—When I went round to inspect the other cells there Was no one with him iu the cell. Timothy Donovan, 12, Bell -court, Gray's Inn-lane, said, he was a blacksmith, and brother of deceased, who always appeared in good health, and he (witness) never heard him complain of pains in the head. When he got drunk, which he often did, he was rather abusive, but he was a very quiet and civil man when sober. The last time witness saw him was at the Bew-street police court Frederick Walden examined—l am attendant in the infirmary of this prison, and saw deceased after sen tence had been passed oa him. Ho was partly crying, and said he was not guilty . of what he had been charged with. When I was caliel from the infirmary to his cell I found him on his back on the floor, with his knees up. I told the turnkey to remove him immediately to the bath-room, and that I would go immediately for the doctor; 'which I did. I did not find our own doc tor at home, so I went for an o th e r, an d when I came back I found two medical gentlemen from St:Bartholomew's flenpital in attendance. When I first saw him in the cell, after he had been cot down, he did not appear to me to be alive. By a Juror—Thera is not always a surgeon in the prison. I had to go to Hatton-garden for the assistant surgeon, but did 'lot take a cab. Both the chief sur geon and the assistant-surgeon visit the prison daily. Mr. Sewell, the assistant-surgeon of the prison, said he saw deceased about half-past three o'clock on Friday. Two or three other medical men had seen him before, and remedies had been adopted to save him. They were the usual and proper remedies in such cases. Did not think if a medical man had been present at the moment life would have been saved, as the proper remedial means had been immediately carried into effect by the prison officials. Deceased died from the effects of banging. The DEPUTY-CORONER then summed up the evidence, and said, the points the jury had to consider were, whether the deceased had died from hanging, and whether he had hanged himself; and if so in what state of mind he was at the time. The jury consulted for a long time, and 12 of them were of opinion that deceased had hung himself whilst in an unsound state of mind; the remaining 11 consid , red that he was not. A verdict was then recorded of " Tem porary insanity," according to the decisionof the majority. The second inquest, on the body of Watts, was then proceeded with. Mr. Cope, the governor of the prison, examined—De ceased was brought up on the 16th of April last on two charges, for stealing an order for 1,4001., and a piece of paper, value ld. He was tried at the following May sessions of the Criminal Court, and judgment was then respited on a point of law. Judgment was given on Friday morning, and the sentence was transportation for ten years. Ido not know whether the judgment of the Court of Criminal Appeal, which was adverse to him, was made known to him until he was finally brought up for judgment to receive sentence. His health was bad when he first came into the prison, and he was under the doctor's care and in the infirmary ever since, I was in the court when the final sentence was passed on him. and he appeared to be in pretty good spirits after hr had heard the sentence. I did not think he appeared at all depressed. In my books he is described as a clerk, and his age is recorded to be 33. After the sentence had been passed he was taken back into the infirmary, where I saw him on Friday evening. The occurrence happened in the middle of the right, and until a quarter, to four o'clock this morning I knew nothing of it, when I was sent for. There were four prisoners in the same room with him, and Walden, the infirmary assistant, slept in a room adjoining. When I was called they told me he bad been dead for some time. William Smith, a prisoner, examined—l was in the itifirmary last night, and I know the person who is dead, Mr. Watts, who was also there. I have been in the infirmary since last Tuesday, and had conversations with deceased, who appeared in excellent spirits. I saw him s ,on after he was sentenced, and he did not appear at all different from what he had been before. I never heard him complain of anything being the matter with him. I sltpt three beds off from him. I and he went to bed about a quarter to nine last evening. He did not eat much supper, but he took some medicine about five minutes before he went to bed. Mr. Weldon gave it to him. Before he went up to the Central Criminal Court on Wednesday morning last, he said that he expected to be imprisoned for twelve months. On that day he was not sentenced, and he said the judges were not satisfied with Mr. JuLdice Cresswell's decision, and that they would write to him into the country, where that learned judge then was, and that he (Watts) was ordered to come up again on Friday. Oa that day, when he canto back to the infirmary, he said he had gat transported for ten years, but he seemed as usual. He also said that he had expected that sentence after what the judges had told Lien on Weadnesday morning. I went to bed at nine, and woke again at twelve o'clock last night. All was then quiet. I awoke again at three, and lay awake until a quarter to four th , s morning. I then turned round in my bed, and missed Mr. Watts, and, seeing his slippers and boots under his bed, I then thought something strange was the case, and being sore that he had not got up between three o'clock and a quarter to four I sus pected that something was wrong. I awoke the prisoner next to me, and communicated to him my suspicions. He immediately jumped out of bed, and went to the water-closet at the other end of the infirmary, and he called for a knife, saying Mr. W atts was there hanging quite dead and cold. I went—the other prisoner's name was Shipton—and saw Mr. Watts there. We rang the bell for the officer. Deceased was hanging suspended by a bit of cord fastened by the side of his neck from some bars across a window, which was over and by the side of the water-closet. The feet of the deceased were just touching the ground and were tied together with a silk handkerchief. He was banging about a foot from the seat of the water-closet. I think I could reach the bars of the window from the ground; he was hanging quite perpendicularly, with his back to the wall and his eyes wide open. When we called for assistance, Mr. Waldon Came with a knife and the deceased was cut down, and Shipton took him and laid him on the floor of the in firmary. A doctor was sent for, although Mr. Watts was quite dead. He was in his shirt, with a napkin on his c hest and a locket suspended f rom his neck. By a J o u f rtohro bedstead. —I believe the o r r o r p e e s p was ond e c d u t withou t a pieceo f the sacking that was wanting. All the knives are given back after every meal, and deceased had one to cut his dinner and supper with on Friday. I never heard him say anything about doing away with himself—quite the other way. He was always in full spirits, and did not appear to me to be ill. By Mr. David Wire—l em certain that during the three-quarters of an hour that I was awake deceased did not go to the water-closet. Mr. M'Murdo, chief surgeon to the prism), examined— Deceased was first brought under my notice and care at Giltspur-street prison, whither he had been remanded before he was brought here. He was then in a state bordering on delirium tremens, caused by drink.

I saw him in Newgate daily, and so did my assistant and my son, who is also a surgeon. He had been getting better since ho was imprisoned, and had become more cheerful. He had taken medicine and was able to bear the diminution of the stimulus at first administered, and was in good spirits apparently. He was very cheerful throughout, and very well conducted towards all. He was con tinually complaining of headaches, but said they were diminishing, and I still thought it right to keep him in the infirmary. He was a very excitable person, but it is very difficult to say whether an unexpected sentence would derange his brain or not. He frequently repeated that he had had a great deal of difficulty about his theatres, and in other ways. Robert Shiptcn, a prisoner in the infirmary, ex amined—l spoke to Mr. Watts somewhere about nine o'clock on the Friday evening. Our conversation was about the prison ruler. We went to bed without wishing one another good night, which was not usual. He appeared very cheerful, as was his custom. I went to sleep, and Ras awoke in the morning, at a quarter to four o'clock, by William Smith, who said that Mr. Watts was not in bed nor in the ward. I jumped up in a fright, and made the beat of my way to the water-closet, the onl y place I thought he could go to. When I opened the door I saw him hanging by a piece of rope from the first cross bur o f the window, which is in part over and part by the side of the seat of the water-closet. I immediately called out for a knife, and whilst they were bringing it I took hold of his hand, and found it quite col d and stiff. The officer brought the knife, and I held the body . up, and he cut the rope, and I took deceased into the infirmary, e was quite dead, and I carried h im in ndy arms like a piece of timber. I have been in the infirmary five weeks, and the knives we use at our meals are always taken away and put into a cupboard. Mr. Sewell, the assistan t-sur g eon, said that he was called that morning a little befote four o'clock. He came immediately to the prison, and .. found deceased quite dead, and he must have been so ogo two noo or threepe easel's our previously. There is as a maj , d and he had been bleed ingface was very much conges from the nose, all which were . sy mptoms of death deceased daily , and co curred in from hanging. Sea Th • • •Mr. Mqiurdo.

Prior to taking 'sit her the Marylebone or Olympic Theatre, he mined frecos ently with betting men, and according to his own e.ccol it t was lucky enough to win considerab'e sums 'of money. From what has since transpired, there is every reason:(-to believe the; instead of his gaining such large sum as he had represent sd, he was a considerable loser by ti; ,s , speculations. His de falcations to the Globe Insuranc e Company reached, it is said, to nearly 80,0001., a sm ii l portion of which will have to be made good by his be (amen.—Observer. The career of Donovan ' v Aar) was termex pugilist, was one of great di, sepation and ri d an e ot. In a moment of bitt-r passion he ,hurled his wife °et ot window, and how she escaped , 1 immediate d-struction appears marvellous. The Lee rnsd Judge before whom he was tried, Baron Alderson --Justices Patti eon and Talfeurd being also on the benel a. —apparently took more than his usually great pains in t 31 inning the facts. The principal witnesses again s t Donovan were his two children and his wife. Baron iLlderson had the children placed on a bench near him, aad his Lordship, with considerable care, questioned t . a em as t) the knowledge of the obligation of an oath, a n d pointed out the awful position of their parent, and the necessity of their telling the truth. Donovan cross-e.c amined them at some length, as also his wife, with ne uch seriousness, with a view of showing that she eitheLe jumped or tumbled out of the window. The fact was ot altered, however; the jury found him guilty, and, it being a capital offence, sentence of death was recorded :against him. Previous to , his trial he was classed with ' the untried prisoners; but on leaving the . dock after ais condemnation he was conveyed to one of the old con &tallied cells at the ex treme north angle of the gaol. Although probably im proved, it continues a dismal -looking place, being 12 feet by 10, and lighted by a 'window in the passage. How he could have succeeded i , z destroying himself with out the watcher In the paserg a. seeing him, if he really was on duty, is a matter whi &s will, no doubt, be in quired into by the Court of Al clermen. With reference to the convi et Walter Watts, there is little doubt that the unfortunat iy man was led to believe that the circumstance of his ix rit ig a partner and share holder in the Globe Insurance ,Company, would be suf ficient in the eye of the law 1 . 43 absolve him from the criminal charges brought again kat him. On being brought up on Wednesday morning, an d hearing the opinion ot Baron Alderson, and the result, of his application to the Court of Appeal, he prepar ed. himself for a severe punishment, and it is possiel , s that he then made up his mind to commit self-des traction, for the way he accomplished his object shows that he had meditated it some time before he could , )fl'ect it. As will be seen, ever since his incarceration le e has been an inrnve of the infirmary, a .comfortable vt .ard on the second floor, on which are some five or six e a st iron bedsteads, fitted with sacking, and laced by rop The one occupied by Watts stood next but one to t eie water-closet door, and how he managed to remove the .rope from the sacking ot his bed—for it was with that I,e strangled himsed— without either exciting the a' it, nation ot the warders or his fellow-prisoners, is a -rva:t•=r which perplexes all. The inference, however, L e that he must have watched his fellow-prisoners to 81 eep, and then raised the bedding, and removed the line... , The secure manner in which he fastened it round the bar of the window of the closet exhibited the determined character of his purpose. He had passed it round the ha r four or five times, and by jumping off the seat, the window being about six feet trom the ground, ended his life in a very prompt and effective style. No relative or friend of the doceased oenvict was pre sent during the proceedings bet keee the coroner.—Sunday Times. MINING INTE,LLIGENCE. -.----..ipb...- --- The Mining Journal gives thte following notice re specting the state of the marl et : " Much activity has exist 'id in the mining share market during the week, thou gio it does not appear that more than an average amount *f bona fide business has been transacted. Inquiries h a-ve been numerous, but holders remain firm; while, in a 43 me cases, a considerable advance in price has taken plar:e.. Among those in re quest, we may name Comfort, Sc uth Basset, Mary Ann, 'l'reviskey and Barrier, Trail tellan, North Buller, Treleigh, &c. "In Foreign Mines there bas ,been as improvement in United Mexican, which have a anted hands at an ad vance. Copiapo, St. John del Ito y,. Cobre, Linares, and Suntiego have also been done." As regards the present s, gate and prospects of various mining adventures, the' ,same journal states as follows : "At North Culler, the Louis %, lode is very much un proved, and the prospects are ,considered of a highly enc .uraging character. " Mary Ann, Cook's Kitclte n, Holmbush, South Basset, and Alfred Consols are, Among the improving mines reported this week. " A parcel of 30 tons of lead o re, was sold from Llwyn melees Aline, on the Bth, at 12/. ss. 6J. per ton. I! The monthly sale of ore ft m the Kirkcudbright shire Mines was 40 tons, which .reo.lised 91. Bs. per tun. " The North Buller agent rep or.rs, from present pros pects, there is every reason to anticipate a productive and standing mine at a deeper le vet. " Birch Tor and Vitifer Min es appear to have con siderably improved within the b ist month, and the pros pects are good. "It is arranged that the inderton Mine shall bu worked in conjunction with the Ts,,vistock Consols, us the United Mines (Tavistock); and ;that the Rix-hill lode, on which a great improvement Itas taken place, shall be intersected by a crosscut from flat 3 Anderton shaft at an 80 fm. level, being upwards of 50 fbas. under the deepest point at which the Rix• hill lode hi s been seen. Also a cross-cut south, to cut another stn* mg lode in the same level; and the (80 fm. level east extended through the cress-course, to cut the two lodes in the Tavistock Con sols, which are most highly spok, In of by all practical miners in the locality. This apve ars to be one of the most important speculations i a sthe district, and the amalgamation of the two undert %Icings affords the means of proving five most promising lodes at from 80 to 100 at a trifling expense. - " The Guadalcanal report of the committee recom mend an issue of 3,000 new sha ros at 21. each, for the purpose of giving trial to the operations suggested by Captain Rule, who had inspected' tho mine. " At the Deep River Colopan, ea meeting a resolution was passed for dissolving the co) epany. The amount in hand will allow of about 14s. per share being returned to such shareholders as have paid )3p. At the Santiago meeting, t Jae report stated the ore raised during the last half-year. wes 712 tons, 587 of which had been sold, realising 5,1091. 103. 2d.; the re mainder was estimated at 8471.; making the total return 6,1201. 19s. Id., showing a lo se on the half-year of 1,7771. 17s. 3d. This increase of expenditure was occa sioned by opening edits and other works in the new per teneecias, on which the main success of the company would depend, as the old mines had become so poor as to be suspended. " Dispatches have been received by the Imperial Bra zilian, St. John del Rey, and N ational Brazilian Mining Companies. The Imperial Brazilian gold report is to the 22d of April, giving the amount of produce from Gongo Soco, from 31 to 22d of April, 2lbs. 9 ozs. 6 dwts.; Bahanal ditto, 201bs. 0 oz. 12 dwts. = 221 , 1)(3. 9 ozs. 18 dwts.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS TIMES.—We are somewhat tired of proving that the marauders defeated by Capt. Farquhar in June of last year on - the Bornean coast were really pirates. As appears by the debate of Thursday Mr. Hume, Col. Thompson, Mr. Cobden, and 2G other gentlemen are still hard of belief upon this point. Their first idea was to represent the )39rnean coast ,as a kind of ma rine Arcadia, where a series of peaceful regattas was in course of perpetual celebration for the delight of all seafaring men who might happen to be passing that way, has been abandoned. What is now asked for is distinct evidence that the fleet attacked in June last was a piratical fleet. Tae appropriate evidence is forthcoming in the certificate of Sir Christopher Itiwlinson and in the depositions of the witnesses ex amihed before the Commission of September last—we pass over, of course, the deposition of Sir James Brooke hiinielf. But Colonel Thompson, Messrs. Hume, Cob den, &c., deal with this little difficulty in the simplest form. They vote this evidence—this direct legal evidence of the piratical character of the fleet—to be nonex isting, and then speak and act as though it existed not. Be it so. It is satisfactory, however, to find that in a House of 140 Members they could only find twenty-six sceptics to go out into the lobby with them upon this system of , dealing with fact. We invite attention to Mr. Drummond's speech, not only be cause it is a clever speech and an amusing speech, but on account of the uncommon decision with which the Hon. Gentleman persists in coupling the name of Mr. Wise, Sir J. Brooke's late agent in this country, with the whole of this agitation. His address to the House is a mere comment upon the quotation with which he concludes it— " Death has no pangslike love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a traitor scorned." It appears that a part of Mr. Wise's system has been ,to stir up the religious feelings of the country against the absent Raja, his late employer. Now he admi nistered a persuasive poke to the " Philanthropic So ciety," now a " thundering prospectus" emanated from the " Peace and Aborigines Protectionists," in which the same inspiration was clearly to be traced. But now that the ridiculous agitation against Sir James Brooke has received a coup de grace, we will content our selves with referring our readers to Mr. H. Drum mond's speech for further particulars on this inte resting point. The debate, however, is still more worthy of notice from the utter and entire abandon ment by Mr. Cobden of the charges against Sir James Brooke. There are no more of the old flourishes about " the private gentleman sailing in his yacht" and the sanguinary doings of the ferocious Baja. Let us do Mr. Cidaden the honour of suppasing that he is very heartily ashamed of the line of argu ment into which he had been seduced, and that so, like a prudent man, he has dropped the aubject of Sir J :mei Brooke fur ever. It vas of course necessary fur him to say something in the debate and so he fell back upon the old resource of whitewashing the pirates. Mr. CJbden was one of only 29. We are anxious, however, before dismissing this subject to deal with a point which has been a good deal mentioned. It has been said that Sir James Brooke was engaged in trading speculations, and that the mission of the philanthropist was merely a blind for the huckstering of the pedlar. Thu 3 his defamers could best hope to inflict damage upon his character and to shake his position with the Government. The facts, however, lie in a very small compass, and may be thus epitomised. On taking the Government of Sarawak in 1841, Sir James, then Mr. Brooke, relieved the people from all taxation whatsoever, except that deriving from work ing the antimony ore mines. His private fortune, although liberally applied, was insufficient to meet the expenses of the Government. He retained the mines, therefore, as the means of revenue. He ex ported the ore to England and received the proceeds in money or bills. To relieve himself from the trou ble of shipment, and being personally averse to the kind of detail it involved, he, through his agent, leased the mines in 1846 to a London house at a fixed rent or royalty. Oa the bankruptcy of that house in 1847 the lease was virtually surrendered into his hands, and he exported the ore to England as before. This process continued until quite re cently, when he again effected a lease with another London house. Such are lite rally the facts upon which the accusation rests. Sir James Brooke does not buy or sell ; he knows nothing of profit or loss. The very elemTnts of trading and speculation are wanting, yet his enemies convert the mere receipt of revenue, existing at the time he accepted the government of Sarawak, into a trading speculation. They hint that as Governor of Labuan he uses her Majesty's credentials for the pur posps of self-aggrandisement and personal ambition. Nothing can be snore false. The whole history of his expedition proves the contrary. The life he led —the hopes that animated him, recorded as they are in his diary day by day—the objects he had in view—were far above the acquisition of money or the gratification of a self-seeking ambition. It is a singular feature of the crusade against Sir James Brooke that the tw•o features in his character which stand out in boldest re- lief—his sincere humanity and his indifference to money —are the very points on which his defamers have attacked him. It is only proper to add, in conclunion, that when the B ritish Government appointed. Sir James Brooke Governor of Labuan, it was with the distinct unders'anding that his independence as Raja of Sarawak was not to be affected or shaken in the slightest degree. But now the pretext for embroiling him with the Home authorities consists in his having derived from Sarawak a certain amount of revenue absolutely necessary for carrying on the government of that district. There will not in all probability be any renewal of these disgraceful attacks upon the character and motives of a man who has rendered the name of Englishmen illustrious upon the other side of the globe. How easy a thing it is to traduce the fair fame of the absent or the dead ! In ordinary cases how hard the task of washing away injuries which the meanest hand may inflict! Happily fur Sir James Brooke the accusations brought against him have been susceptible of a simple and direct an swer. If he has been exposed to very virulent at tacks—if his action 3 have been distorted—his motives maligned, he has simply shared the ordinary fate of all public men in a free country. If a charge against a pub lic man be once originated by a private enemy, and it suit the purpose of a political party to add vigour to the cry, the calumny of yesterday becomes the dogma of to-morrow. No matter how pure a man's life, how lofty his motives, he is in such a case for a while the popinjay of every gobemouche in the three kingdoms. What is the remedy against all this ? We are well aware that it is easy enough to bear the misfortunes of other men with becoming resignation, and to re commend indifference and contempt as the appropriate cure. We doubt the entire efficacy of this prescrip tion. Rather let a man who has once stepped for ward upon the public arena fix his eye steadily upon the good he hopes to effect. If he perceives that the projects he had formed for the relief of suffering hu manity are in course of realization, he may acquiesce very contentedly in a certain amount of misrepresen tation, and even of calumny. Stars, and titles, and wealth, and even rapturous applause at the London Tavern, are well enough, but there is some thing much better—the consciousness of doing good and of ameliorating the condition of generations yet to be born. If a man might be per mitted to work out his views for the relief of hie fel low creatures without hindrance or contradiction, he would be deprived of many incentives to noble action. A spice of slander, bitter as it may taste in the mouth, is no bad occasional ingredient in a man's cup. It will not be the least amongst what Lord Bacon would style the " felicities" of Sir James Brooke, if he bo destined from time to time to meet with a few more such opponents as the members of the Eternal Peace Society and their Parliamentary accomplices. The insecure point of Sir James Brooke's eastern ad venture is that its success seems as yet to rest on no more secure basis than his single life. What will happen in those distant seas when the controlling spirit is withdrawn and the European trader and the half sav age native are brought face to face ? Sir James Brooke has succeeded in clearing the Eastern seas of piracy —that is a positive good; and that achieve ment may no doubt be perpetuated by the most ordi nary hands. This done, civilization and barbarism are brought into contact. Is the Eastern Archipe lago to furnish us with the first example of the gra dual diffusion of civilization amongst a barbarous people—without subjection—without extermination ? We will not indulge in gloomy forebodings, nor an ticipate the moment when the exertions of a noble life may prove to have failed in attaining their full object. Miy all turn out as Sir James Brooke him self would fain have it! Meanwhile, absent though he be, his reputation and pod name are a sacred de posit in the hands of his country. The continued favour of his Sovereign, the distinct approval of both Houses of Parliament, the hearty admiration of the vast majority of his countrymen—above all, the con ,-ioueess of the good he has effected, may surely be taken as sufficient compensation for a passing gust of calumny, which has only brought. out the disinterest . edness of his character in bolder relief. STRIKE OF (;UN-LocK FILEIL9.—At Darlaston GOO gun-lock filers have struck, and that just at the time when a Government contract for 50,000 locks has been taken. It is said that the contractors wish to reduce wages in order to SUPPIy the lodge to QM= Oat a d uc e wag NAVAJANTELLIGENCE. WA.R.-BfiEAMEßS.—Before the practice at the iron and wood butt on Thursday last there was an order down at Portsmouth for another butt to be made for further shot-practice on a plan suggested by Mr. Pre tious, the only difference from it to the last butt being (we understand) that a thick felt substance was to be placed between the iron and wood ; it being supposed the felt would so soften the jar on concussion as would prevent the shot from breaking to pieces. After the conclusive practice that took place on Thursday last it seems a query whether this new butt will now be made. The principal and, we may say, the most novel dis covery that has been developed by the recent shot-prac tice at the iron butts is the tendency that every shot has to break to pieces. The shot, whether solid or hollow, enters the iron plates, and makes a tolerably round hole, is smashed to pieces, and on escaping from the side the fragments fly and are scattered about on the inside the buts in all directions. Wo saw in the last practice the pieces of a solid 32-pound shot in fragments of from an ounce to five ouncrs weigh►, which were scattered about in all directions after passing through the butt. We should be glad to see some further experiments made with the iron butts, and which might be done without much expense, as the old butt: would again an swer the purpose. As the contact of the butt with the iron seems to be the occasion of the shot smashing to pieces, why not try an outside casing r f wood over the iron side, case the old butt over with fir planking from four to ten inch, or even a foot in thickness, and try whether it would not prevent the butts breaking? The Sirnooln is a most bountiful frigate; certainly the most complete vessel of war that we have ever seen manufac- turea from iron. Now if an outside wood planking should be found, on practice, to prevent the iron balls from breaking to picce3, there would be no difficulty in placirg a wood-planking, or sheathing, of the required thickness over the iron sides of the Simoom, which would only be requirei outside her fighting-decks-- namely, from her weather-deck gunwales to the main deck waterways. It might, however, be carried down to her waterline and bevelled off to nothing below. This sheathing would not detract from her sailing or steam ing qualities, though it might disfigure her somewhat; but the protection of her crew from slaughter is the principal object, and if this sheathing would pre vent the shot from breaking the object would be ob- tained. As we have before observed, the shot on entering the iron plates of the side, make a tolerably round hole, the siz.3 of a ball, without much injuring the plane of the plate side. These holes, in an iron vessel, might be easily stopped up in the same way that man-holes in boilers are stopped ; the covering plate, being in two pieces, might be thrust out through the shot hole, and screwed back as man-holes are. The old iron butts would do to practice at, and might be covered ever with plank of different thicknesses, to test what thick ness would prevent a ball on striking from being broken to pit ces.--fierald. Flamer steamer has received extensive alterations at Portsmouth to fit her for a cruising vessel, having been a Mediterranean packet ; she has been masted, and is cqmpleting in the old basin at Portsmouth. She vs ill be shortly commissioned for the coast of Africa. Polyphemus steam-sloop sailed on Friday from Portsuhutti for Woo:wich, under the change rf Mr. M'D pnald, master-attendant; hsr paddle-wheels are unshipped. The same party that navigate the Poly phemus will bring back the Retribution to Portsmouth. Sprightly steamer sailed with supernumeraries from Portsmouth for Plymouth on Saturday evening. PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY.—Tne Niger steam-sloop, Commander Heath, went out of harbour at nine o'clock on Friday morning, under the charge of Captain Hen derson, C. 8., of the Blenheim, to try her speed. She made six runs up and down the measured mile, and the result was as f flows: — Runs. Knots. 1 ... 9'302 9'463 2 ... 9.625 1 0'014 9 738 9.812 3 ... 10 404 9 758 9.877 9 886 9 844 9 867 4 ... 9 . 113 9 . 978 9 868 9 . 903 9 690 S 5 ... 10'84 9'899 3 9 . 938 6 ... 8.955 Means. She had coals, water, shot, guns, and stere;, on board, but no powder, shells, or provisions. Her engines worked well. She was obliged to stop them when at Spithead, on account of the bearings becoming heated; this will be remedied before she g ‘es to sea. The draught of water on Friday was 14 feet 5 inches for ward and 15 feet 5 inches aft. The Cuckoo steam-vessel, Commander Le Febvre, baying been thoroughly repaired alter her late ground ing, returned to the Channel Llands last night. The Dragon steam frigate hauled out of dock yester day af,ernoon, prior to commission by Captain 11. W. Gifford. The Irlicxible steam-sloop is ordered to be commis sioned immediately at Woolwich, by Commander Dyke, besides whom the following other officers were yesterday appointed to her:—Lieutenant F. Meynell ; Master James Pyper; Purser, Mr. Eeles; Clerk, Mr. Thomp son; Master's-Assistant, Mr. C. Newman; gunner, Mr. LeAby ; boatswain, Mr. Snook; carpenter, Mr. F. Corning. The Howe, 120, Captain Sir James Stirling, was paid off at Sheerness on Friday. A letter from her says— " At 8 o'clock in the morning the ship's company having been called on deck, Sir James Stirling addressed them in a very appropriate speech on the celerity and dexter ous manner in which they 11,,d performed their duty. The piyment commenced at 10 o'clock, by Captain- Superintendent Pric-, of the Wellivgton, and was entirely finished by 5 P No instance of inebriety was visible, nor was any man detained on account of debt to the Crown or otherwise; and order was preserved until the last moment." PLYZIOUTII, SATURDAY, JULY 13.—Her Majesty's ship St. George, 120, is to be commissioned insttai of the Agincourt, 72. The St. Gearge is to have the masts of a first-rate fitted with a frigate's gear. Her Majesty's ship Caledonia, 120, Captain T. W. Carter, 1. ft 11hlta, in consequence of the cholera, on the 3d of Jaly, at six A.M., fur Gibraltar. The ni:ighbourhood of this port was visited with is dense fog yesterday, when one of the Irish steamers c..ught the sands off White Sand Bay, but sheered off witheut damage. A smack ran aihere at Yealm, and a revenue cruiser is reported to have taken the ground to the eastward. There was very little wind at the time. On Thursday evening, between nine and ten o'clock, the yawl Alarm, of 193 tans, belonging to Mr. Joseph Weld, of the Royal Yacht Squadron and Royal Western Yacht Club, when attempting to make fast to one of the Government transporting buoys in Barn Pool, missed it, and there being a strong ebb tide, very little wind, and no anchor ready, she drifted ashore under Mount E igcumbe, to the south of the landing-place, with her bow pointing to the northward. She Jell towards the beach, and as the tide rose she filled. On Friday morn ' in.., Mr. Henderson, master-attendant of the dockyard; Mr.' Brown, master of her Majesty's ship Agincourt, with a gang of seamen and marines, and the Fearless steamer, Mr. Veitch proceeded to Barn Pool, and plac ing a lighttr on each side the yacht, with hemp cables underneath, they pumped her out, and with the help of casks under her bilg.. raised her with the tide, and at 5 Pm. towed her to Frank's Quarry, the private build ing yard of Mr. Banks, K ho bad assisted in her recovery. Port-Admiral Sir W. Hall Gage, in the Sylph yacht, inspected the operation in the afternoon. The keel of the Alarm was twisted at low water, and she leaks from damage to her garboard streak and bilge. She is one of the fine old racing yachts, and is last from Ports mouth. Mr. Weld, his son, and two brothers were on board at the time of the accident. APPOINTMENTS. Wonwica, JULY 13.—Commander Peehe H.

The Committee of Spanish bondholders have received a communication from their agent at Madrid, and cer tainly it is not very encouragin M a dr i d , I is as uly follows: J 5, 1850. " Monsieur le President,—l have the honour to inform you that I have had this day, jointly with the Dutch delegates (who hold likewise powers from the French, Belgian, and Prussian Committees), the first conference with the Directive Junta, presided over by Monsieur Bertram de Lis. " In this conference we explained the sacred rights of the foreign creditor, and the desire with which the com mittees are animated to come to a reciprocally acceptable and equitable settlement. "I read extracts from the letters which the committee has addressed to me under date of the 10th of May and 18th of June last, plainly asserting that there is no question of any proposition, but solely an indication on the part of the committee to obtain from the Govern ment a proposition upon the basis indicated in your letter of the 10th of May, in order to submit it to the discussion and approbation of the foreign bondholders. The Dutch delegates have joined us to carry out entirely this pier, and expressed their perfect satisfac tion of it to the Directive Junta. The Junta replied that they would take the whole into consideration, in order to make their report to the Government, and to call us to another conference as soon as they should be lin a situation to make a reply. The Datch delegates have seen this day for the same object his Excellency the Duke de Valencia and the Minister of Finance, who respectively promised to do all they possibly can. The Duke de Valencia indicated that the Treasury can never go further than to apply 200,000,000 reels annually to the whole of the debt, home and foreign, and as 100 milli cis if i eils are already required for the payment of the 3 per cent. interior and exterior debt, there remains the other 100 millions of reals applicable to the defini tive arrangement (f the old debt, interior and exterior.

J, Payne, deputy coroner, an d a jury of 23 citizens. The first was on the body of Daniel Blackataff Donovan, aged 33, an expugilist; the second on the body of Walter Watts, also aced 33, rtcently clerk in the Globe Insurance office, and formerly lessee of the Mirylebone and Olympic Theatres. On Friday Donovan was tried at the C:ntral Criminal Court and sentence of death recorded against him; and the saml day the deceased Watts was brought up fur judgment and sentenced to ten years' transporta tion. The following eril, , nee will show the nature of their offonces and the circumstances of their self d,2.- struction : Mr. Under-Sheriff Millard and Mr. David Wire were present Burin; the two investigations. Mr. W. Cope examined—l am governor of this prison, and deceased's name was Daniel Blackstaff Donovan. He came in on the Ist of July. Ile was charged with wcuni mg and throwing out of a window of a certain dwelling house Anne Donovan, with the intent to kill end murder her. He was tried on Friday morning 1)c-fore Mr. Baron Alderson at the Central Criminal Court, convicted, and sentence of death recorded against him. I did not see him after the sentence, as I was on business at the Secretary of State's office, respecting the removal of prisoners to Milbank prison. The first body that the jury has visited is his. His age is 33, and he described himself as being a smith. On his admission he appeared very well. I saw him yes terday morning before his trial, and saw him every day during his imprisonment. I did not observe anything at all particular in his mariner. He was a man of violent temper generally. I used to have him out of his cell to work, end if anything was said to him he would turn sulky and abuse me dreadfully. After such a sentence as that passed on deceased a prisoner is taken into such a cell as he was in. I was not at home when this occur red. One of the turnkeys was left to watch over him, but not in the cell with hire. I did not hear of his death until about four o'clock on my return from Milbank prison. He was tried soon after ten A.M. on Friday, and setitmced soon after one o'clock P.M. The turnkey in charge of him could see into his cell through the usual opening in the door. In my absence the deputy-governor is left in charge of the prison. After deceased bad been put into his cell he had seen two or three officers, but no one else. Mr. George Wright examined.—l am deputy governor of Newga'e. I was not present when sentence of death was passed on Donovan. I saw him after wards, and was summoned from the Third Court imme• diately the accident occurred—about 20 minutes to 3 on Friday afternoon. I went to the bath-room, where I found him in a warm bath. Had seen him frequently, several times every day, from the time of his admission up to his trial. On his first coming into the prison be appeared in good health , and I never remarked anything extraordinary in his manner. I saw him in the morn ing before his trial. Ho did not then appear differe from what he hal been before. When I first saw him in the bath he did not appear to be dead. I increased the warmth of the bath, got more assistance, and applied friction. Medical men were sent for. The first that ar rived was from St. Bartholomew's Hospital who exa mined and pronounced him dead. A Juror—What are the instructions your prison officers receive in cases of this sort? Witness.—The instructions are general—to watch the prisoners generally. There is no fixed time for looking into the cells. The officers aro to examine them as often as they can. By Mr. D. Wire—Every effort was made, as soon as the accident was discovered, to obtain prompt medical assistance. By Mr. Under-Sheriff Millard—Warm baths are a was kept 'early in the prison. Mr. James Josiah Millard examined—l was under sheriff on duty yesterday in the Central Criminal Court and was present during the trial of deceased. The con duct of the prisoner was perfectly coal and collected— remarkably so for one in his position. He cross examined his two children and wife, the chief witnesses against him, and their answers seemed to make little impression on him. He read his defence with great care and deliberation. It was very long and seemed to have been written by himself. He was found guilty of intent to murder, and the judge ordered sentence of death to be recorded, with this observation—" The pri soner's case will be recommended to the merciful con sideration of her Majesty in order that his life may be spared." After the sentence was pronounced he ap peared unconcerned and retired from the dock in the dogged way he had come into it. The general rules for the turnkeys are, that they should examine the cells at frequent intervals, allowing no unreasonable time to elapse between each examination. When parties are ordered for execution two persons remain in the cell constantly with them day and night. This is not the case when sentence of death is only recorded. Henry Todman (turnkey) examined—l was on duty yesterday over the cell in which deceased was, and when he was brought to it after trial he seemed quite col lected and perfectly quiet. He was dressed in the clothes he was tried in. His hands and feet were not confined. It is my duty to watch in a sort of passage in front of these cells, into which I can see. About half. past one the deceased was brought to the cell. I locked him in. He asked for his dinner, which I gave to him, and he then refused to eat it, saying he could not. He then asked me for some water to drink. I gave it him, and he drank it. I then went away, and came back to him at five minutes past two. He said he should like to see his wife, and I said he should have an opportu nity. He also asked me if he could write a letter, and I said that I must report his request to the governor, as it is contrary to the rules to write without leave. He was then walking baelswards and forwards in his cell. I left, and at half. past two came to sea him again. Ile was then suspended by his handkerchief. I opened I the cell, and went in and took a knife and cut the hand kerchief, which was round his neck and fastened to the bars of the call windows. Ido not know whether it was a neck or pocket handkerchief. His feet were off the ground. Ile could not retch the bar from the ground, and I think he must have stood upon the bedstead to have reanhed it. His back was to the wall, and his hands were hang ing down straight. When I cut him down be was a little g th av o e in a fi n rm al a a r r y m , w el h i o rec c t a ly tte fo o r nd ne or d d o er c e to d e m s me sas- to in the take Two gentlemen himtothe b so.o th o -room, s a a n w d b a ito s , u a rg u e d oawas pronouncedsent him f or. dead.
