Retired Captain Abel W. Thomas, whose promotion we announced yesterday, entered the navy in July, 1793; and from that time to the date of his commander's commission, June, 1814, he was never on half-pay. He belonged to the Victorious, 74, at the reduction of the Cape, and was in that ship when, in company with the Arrogant, 74, they fought six heavy French frigates for four hours off Sumatra, when the combatants sepa rated, after each had been well crippled, and the Vic torious sustained a loss of 17 killed and 57 (including her captain) wounded. He was made a lieutenant in May, 1802, having previously served as acting senior of the Babelmandel and Orpheus. Subsequently he was ap pointed to the command of the Grappler gun-brig, which vessel, 31st December, 1803, took the ground after sus taining a desperate conflict with an overwhelming force, sent to effect her capture, and was then destroyed by the enemy. So distinguished was the bravery of the officers and crew that on being sent prisoners to Verdun, Napo leon commanded that the officers' swords should be re turned to them. The gallant commander was severely wounded in the lip, tongue, and throat in this desperate affair, for which he received a pension of 1501. a year, an honorary reward from the Patriotic Society, and his promotion. Commander Bulman, of the Persian, 12, at Halifax has invalided, and the Commander-in-Chief has pro moted the second lieutenant of his flag-ship, Mr. A. F. Kynaston, to the acting command of the sloop, and Mr. Mark R. Pechell, mate of the Cumberland, to be acting lieutenant, vice Kynaston. The Persian left Halifax, July 1, for the Bay of Fundy, to protect the fisheries. 16 1 at h i e u i n t e s n t a a n n t t , a Edw t Br ad i d r ge t L o w u s n c , o b o e t n e ( s Ball alter r a died f on th e 16th few days' s t ys e , illness, aged sixty-one years.

He departed at the ripe old age of eighty-two, leaving behind him the reputation of an orthodox and enthusiastic Roman Catholic, but one who in his most learned and elaborate writings never wilfully sacrificed candour and truth to sectarian ends and religionistic narrowness of view. Dr. Lingard's historical writings were of course to a certain degree influenced by the point from which he looked, and the corresponding prepossessions with which he wrote. But weighty testimony has vouched for the candour and fairness of his views. Dr. Lingard, while pointing out the advantages derived in an early stage of civilization from monarchism, never attempted to wrap up the co-existent abuses; but, on the contrary, candidly acknowledged that certain evils almost inevitably spring out of certain advantages; and fairly and truly, and in the most thoroughly Catholic spirit, painted the one and the other. Had all ecclesiastical writers, indeed, been in spired by the philosophical and broadly tolerant and wisely and grandly beneficent spirit which prompted the histori • cal works of Lingard, many a religious feud would have been averted, and many a drop of theologic black blood spared. The illustrious deceased was one of the earliest to direct public attention back into the remote and then little known times of the Heptarchy. This was in his "History of the Anglo-Saxon Church." When it was issued, Dr. Lingard was an obscure and hard-working priest, labouring among the collier population of Newcastle. The book came modestly into the world, bearing neither the impress of Albemarle-street, nor the Row. It was indeed printed and published locally, but its learning and its philosophy, its richness of thought and its meekness of spirit speedily procured extended and permanent fame for the humble adventurer from the presses of the Tyne, Dr. Lingard was then in his 37th year. He had been born in 1769—a fruitful year, by the way, in great men. Both Wellington and Napoleon were born during its progress; but we may mention that Sir Walter Scott, whose birth has been attributed, by a recent annalist of the historian, to the same year, did not see the light until 1771. Young Lingard was one of the hard, clear, and persevering brains of Lancashire. He was early dedicated to the priesthood, and studied at that seminary so famous in the annals of modern English Catholicsm, Douai. Having entered holy orders he re turned home, and commenced his laborious duties as an earnest, anxious working priest amen the collier popu lation of Northumberland. As we have seen, however, his sacred and official duties did not prevent his devot ing a great portion of the mental powers with which he was gifted to the elucidation of the early ecclesiastical and eeclesiological condition of Great Britain. The work brought him fame, and to some extent the means of leisure. They were used nobly. The pro vincial priest conceived the grand design of the history of England, to be executed of course from the point of view prescribed naturally by his sympathies, and authoritatively by his creed. Into neither the merits nor the characteristics of that great work is it at all necessary now to enter. The former are acknowledged and appreciated—the latter are known and understood. Dr. Lingard's Catholio " History of England" is a legitimate and complete chronicle—adding, as it does, the annals of the kingdom, as seen by the light of the old faith, to the records written by the light of the new; and the records, we may add, inspired by the peculiar gleam of no creed what ever.

The " History of England" in question was a work of great toil and research. In its progress the author spent much time in the noble library of the Vatican, and amongst the very curious collection of historical records left by the Stuarts and now preserved at Rome. The first volume appeared thirteen years after the publication of the earlier and introductory work. The author was then the unob trusive and beloved priest of the same little Lancashire village, that of Hornby, in which he died. Volume after volume of the great and national work in question came forth, but the author's fame never drew him from his re tirement. He had no taste for ecclesiastical pomp, and no wish for ecclesiastical preferment. More than once his name was mentioned in connexion with a Cardinalship; but the great honours of the Old Faith were more often awarded to the bustling political intriguant of the day than to the retired and unobtrusive professors of learned literature, and the non-political possessor of profound scholarship. Dr. Lingard has been described by those who knew him well, as equally remarkable for manly modesty and genuine independence of character. The public story of his life is the register of the success of his books. The man was a virtuous citizen and an earnest professor of his creed. The historian was a phi losopher and a Christian in the widest and most elevated sense of the term.—Chronicle. xtuo rED to No. 9, GREAT WINCHESTER-STREET, OLD CARSBROAD -STREET, ROYAL EXCHANGE.

A ver y - „,it;c place this would be for healthy subjects to resort to, and to emerge from into the cold sleet of December or a January blast! Nor is much gained to the cause by the patronage of those who would turn it into a riding-school, or covered Rotten-row; as if the public wore not already suffi ciently disgusted with the aristocratical insolence that has broken in upon the privacy of Kensington -gardens. If the building is to be preserved—which, upon the whole, we think desirable—it can only be done advan tageously by devoting it to purposes in some degree ana logous to the present; that is, to the exhibition of works of art and industry and of natural productions, with such accompaniments, of trees and flowers, as will enhance the general effect, without turning it into a mere hot house or conservatory. We dare say, however, that a great battle will have to be fought, before the wishes of Mr. Paxton and the public generally are realised. The dowagers and the Clergy will hold on with all the tenacity of their sex; and " plain John," though not a hungry Scot, retains all the perfervidum ingenium that brought him across the border. The son of a Scotch Presbyterian parson, who began life "in the gallery," and by slow degrees, without brilliant parts, became Solicitor and Attorney- General, Lord Chancellor of Ireland, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, Lord Chief Justine, and secured two peerages for his family, besides sundry other ad vantages, cannot be made of very vulnerable materials. But it does seem rather ungracious, in one who has received so much from the Royal bounty to appear so prominently in opposition, under circumstances with which every one is supposed to be familiar.— Weekly News and Chronicle. °Cl ry - in WATER of PAINTERS .

The following are the official returns of the receipts of yesterday : Season tickets At the doors FATAL ACCIDENT IN A COAL-PIT.—A very shocking and fatal accident occurred at Chorley, Lanca shire, on Monday, to two gentlemen visiting a coal-mine. Mr. Henry Hordern Fazakerley, a young gentleman nine teen years of age, who had recently cone into possession of Gillibrand-hall estate and other property by the death of his father, was down at this place, which is near Chorley, from London, visiting, and in company with him was a Mr. James Green, said to be from Bryanston-square, London; and on Monday afternoon they were invited to descend a coal mine in which there was a good deal of foul air, to look at the works. The colliery was that of Mr. Jonathan Blundell and Sons. In company with them the underlooker of the works (Mr. Billings), and a sinker, named William Taylor, descended the shaft, 208 yards deep, and they took with them a blazing tar-rope to give light. Shortly after their descent, a boy at the mouth of the pit observed a rush of air up the shaft, as if an explosion had taken place, and gave an alarm. The son of Mr. Billinge and others went down in search of the parties (after shouting down the shaft without getting an answer), but the air was so foul that it was some hours before they could venture to the bottom. The result was, as may be surmised, that the whole of the party, four in number, had perished, leaving no one to tell the melancholy circumstances immediately leading to the accident. The bodies of Mr. Fazakerley, Mr. Green, and their companions, were recovered about midnight, and there is no doubt, from their scorched and disfigured state, that they had ignited the carburetted hydrogen gas so fatal in coal mines, and fallen a sacrifice to the imprudence whi c h had dictated the use of an unproteced light in place oc e a Davy lamp. ... £lO 10 0 ... 3,236 2 0 Total ... .., £3,246 12 0 Police numbers, 68,161.

There is no class of diseases requiring more kindness and care.

STATE OF TRADE.—MANCIIESTER, Jura . There was rather more life in the market this morning, and in several kinds of cloth and yarn there was a considerable business done. Prices, however, were a shade lower, and in cop yarns, which have held higher rates hitherto in conse quence of a good demand, the decline is Ad. to id. per lb. on last Tuesday's quotations. In longcloths there was a good business, and, from the anxious inquiries and testing of prices by buyers, it is expected that, should the market give signs of steadiness, there will be considerable business transacted during the week. The chief business has been for the home wationtal export trades, Iv.

He who is awake, may be at work or at play ; he who is asleep is receiving the refresh ment necessary to fit him for action ; but the hours spent in dozing and slumbering are wasted, without either pleasure or profit. The sooner you leave your bed the seldomer you will be confined to it, for early rising conduces to healthful ness.

With the exception of wheat, we have small imports of grain, owing to the prevalence of westerly winds. The trade has been very inanimate, but with out any quotable alteration in value. To-day we had again a moderate show of wheat from our farmers, who were very un willing sellers at any concession upon last week's rates, and the business done was very limited. The foreign market was very tame. A good sale for grinding barley at our quotrtions. Oats dull. Not much doing in beans or peas. Indian corn goes off at 295. per qr. 480 lbs.

COMMERCIAL BANK OF ENGLAND.—The annual general meeting of the shareholders:of this company was held yesterday in the board-room of their offices in Lothbury ; Mr. Barnewall in tho chair. The report stated that, after making full allowance for bad and doubtful debts, and paying the charges and current expenses of the past year, the net profits amounted to 15,5511. 13s. Out of these profits a dividend at the rate of 61. per cent. per annum for the half-year end ing 31st December, 1850, had been already paid, and the directors had now to declare a dividend, free from income tax, for the half-year ending 30th June, 1851, at the same rate. After paying such dividend and deducting the rebate of interest upon current bills, and also writing off Si. per cent.; (200/.) from the item) of 4,0001. annually charged to the bank premises account, there will remain a balance of 4,191/. 3s. 6d. to be added to the reserve fund, thereby in creasing this fund to 28,0621. 17s. lid. The report having been adopted unanimously, the chairman said it was true they might have increased the dividend, or given the share holders a bonus; but, acting on the principle that to have strength long it was wise to use it well, the board had thought it better for the permanent interests of the company to add the whole of the surplus profits over the dividend re commended to the reserve fund. It was to be hoped that at no distant day the company would realise all reasonable ex pectations. The chairman then declared a dividend at the rate of six per cent. for the half•year ending June 30, 1851. A vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Cutbill, as also to the board of directors and to tke chairman, after which the meet ing separated. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Ministry sustained a serious defeat on Mon day in the Assembly. The discussion was on the reception of the report of the Petition Committee, and serious accusation s were brought against M. LEON FAUCHER of having caused his officers in the de partments to " cook' a variety of petitions in favour of a revision of the Constitution and a prolongation of the powers of the PRESIDENT. M. BAZE proposed the following resolution : " The National Assembly, while regretting that, in some localities, the Government, contrary to its duty, bad used its influence to excite the citizens to petition, orders the legal petitions to be deposited in the Bureau des Renseignemens." After a sharp discussion, the Assembly divided, when there were— For the resolution ... • • ••• 333 Against it ... ••• ••• ... 320 Majority against Ministers .. --13 The Ministers then proceeded to the Elysee and tendered their resignations, which, however, were not accepted by the PRESIDENT. M. LEON FAUCHER, however, upon whom the resolution of M. BAZE is a direct vote of censure, has, it is said, refused to with draw his resignation. The Univers which, inspired by M. DE MONTA," LEMBERT, has always supported the present Ministry, says—" The Cabinet is seriously compromised. Are we to fall into another Ministerial crisis ? The Mi nistry is beaten, but it is the Mountain which is victorious." The Opinion Publique and the Ordre are delighted with this defeat of the Cabinet. The Cardinal DE LA TOUR D'AUVERGNE, Arch bishop of Cambray, expired on Sunday. The Municipality of Paris has voted 150,000 francs to defray the expenses of a grand fae to the Lord Mayor of LONDON and the Committee of the Grand Exhibition, to take place on the 2d August. The Bourse was more firm than might have been ex pected from the hostile vote of the Assembly yesterday.

A Rus sian Plenipotentiary is expected at Vienna to termi nate the affair, which is of such importance for Aus trian commerce. The Wanderer of Vienna states that reports were current in military circles that the EMPEROR had decided on granting to all the soldiers who had taken part in the campaigns of Italy and Hungary a dimi nution of one year in their terms of service, unless they wish to engage themselves as volunteers. TURKEY. A letter from Constantinople, of the sth, in the Augsburg Gazette, says :—" M.

We find the following rather incredible statement in the Patrie:—" The Academy of Sciences is a good deal interested by the invention of a flying machine by Don Diego de Salamanca. With this machine Don Diego's daughter, Rosaura, rose in the air some time ago at Madrid, to the great astonishment of tiv Spaniards, who are but little accustomed to this sort of miracle. Don Diego de Salamanca and his daughter arc about to ar rive at Paris to show the effects of his marvellous inven tion. The machine is very simple; it consists in a case two feet long, and one foot wide, adapted to a band of leather round the waist buckled behind. Two iron rods fastened to the case support a small piece of wood, on which the feet repose. The case contains a simple and ingenious mechanism, similar to that employed to set an automaton in motion. The mechanism is worked by means of a handle. It sets in work two }urge wings ten feet long, made of very thin caoutchouc, covered with feathers; and the wings may be so worked gul to produce vertical, perpendicular, or horizontal eying. The number of turns given to the handle determines the height to which it is desired to go. The handle has also to be turned every quarter of a league to regulate the distance; the operation of turning lasts a minute. Horizontal flying is the most difficult; the wings beat the air like the oars elf a boat, or rather as the feet of a swan when it swims. By means of this curious machine, a man can go almost as rapidly as a carrier pigeon from the Hotel-de-Ville to the Arc de Triothphe do l'Etoile in eight minutes, and in half an hour to Versailles. The experiments, which will be made at Paris, will be on a small scale, and the flights of Don Diego will not extend beyond the department of the Seine; but at a later period he proposes to go to Lyons, to Bordeaux, Tou louse, Marseilles, and Tours, and to take the lines of railway. He pretends that he can travel quicker than by rail. The price of each maohine win not exceed 1,200 f. for men, and I,ooof. for w omen . If th e experiment succeeds, Don. Diego will take out a patent, and will make the sale of the machines a branch if com merce. Although greatly astonished at this new inven tion, several members of the academy have pointed out the inconvenience of bringing it into general use. In point of fact, there will be no security for any one, if by the aid of such machine all our usages and customs bo overthrown, and if malefactors can fly on the roofs of houses, afterwards get into apartments and commit all sorts of depredations. It will be very curious to see policemen in France or England pursuing_ thieves in the air, in order t o l oc k t h em up on earth. appears that 1852 promises us all sorts of marvels. TERRIFIC THUNDER -STORM. On Friday evening last, :shoat half-past 6 o'cloek, the town of Sunderland was visited by a destructive thun derstorm. From a vessel lying in the roads a large ball of fire, having a blue appearance, and being tinged with red, was seen to descend and fall upon not, lower part of the town. This was immediately followed by a tremendous peal of thunder, re sembling a salvo of artillery. The sky for several moments was completely illuminated with sheet light ning, which was followed immediately by a heavy shower of rain. The electric fluid struck the chimney of a house in Burleigh-street, which was shattered to pieces, and the bricks strewn in all directions, and broke in the roof. The electric fluid passed down the chimney. Several pieces of wood and iron were thrown about in the attic; it passed down to a room in the third story, and throw the plaster off the wall, and tore up the flagstones of the hearth and turned them upside down, and broke all the windows. In the second story there was a large east-metal stove around the fireplace, which seemed to have at tracted the electric fluid, for a large stone chimney piece was thrown out of the wall on to the floor, a large quantity of crockeryware was broken, and a door shat tered to pieces. In the lower or basement a closet door nea r t o t h e fi rep l ace w as complettaat tared to pieces; the tester of the be d, which w as fixed with iron pi ns , was t h rown down, and part of th e furniture and the windows were broken. At this moment a horse and cart was standing in the street, and three children were playing at a sh or t distance, the horse suddenly reared in ram pant posi tion on his hind legs fo r a moment, an d'&,, a whee ls of the cart were completely illuminated w i t h a bright blab electric light. several persons had a narrow escape from the falling bricks. Two of the children received severe falling missiles. A boy, namedcut on the toes of the r i g ht foot, and was also struck w i t h lightning. Ile B a blows Bail i y, fromwas severely wa s taken tIP in a s tate of in sens ibi lity, sa d ex p ire d t h e same e vening at nine o'clo c k . In a neig flb our i ng h ouse in t he same street, as Mrs. Woodcock, a married woman, was sitting sewing her husband's clothes in a n upper room, the electric fluid struck the needle and thimble on her finger, and she received a power ful shock and was thrown down on the floor, and when taken up she was found to have completely lost her speech and hearing. She was immediately at tended by Mr. Dickson, surgeon, and recourse was had to galvanism. The apparatus was brought, and a gen tle current of the electric fluid was passed through her frame for about a quarter of an hour, and she again received her speech and hearing, and although extremely weak, she is likely to recover. Dur ing the whole evening the street was crowded by a dense mass of people, and the greatest excitement pre vailed among the inhabitants of that part of the town, which is principally occupied by the poorer part of the population. This violent storm was of short duration, and about two hours afterwards tho sky beeame calm, clear, and serene. TUE ENCUMBERED ESTATES CommrssroN.—Yes terday a return was printed by order of the House of Lords, of some importance in reference to the Encumbered Estates Commission.
