Mr. MARTIN said he had only to say on behalf of the plaintiff, thr,t he was exceedingly unwilling that his wife's family should ',have the annoyance of a public investigation. He had therefore consented to the proposal. made by Mr. Attorney-General Knowles. Mr. Justice CRESS WELL asked what damages? Mr. KNOWLEs--7501. lawrn v. ROSE —BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. TaiS was a special jury case. It was an action for breach of promise of marriage brought against a me dical gentleman well known in Liverpool, The jurors had been summoned for that morning, but on the con clusion of the patent caset - thezlllhiTii told that they would not be required. Thus were the lovers of scandal and gossip des tined to a double disappointment. An action for false imprisonment occupied the Court the remainder of the day. CROWN COURT.--(Before Mr. Justice WIGHT.. MAN.) Robert Lees was charged with the manslaughter of an infant, named Elizabeth Corrie, by negligently and unskilfully administering to her an overdose of laudanum. Mr. Blair prosecuted ; the , prisoner was unde fended. It appeared that on Sunday, the 4th of August, las - , the wife of John Corrie, who fives in North street, Liverpool, went with another woman to a public-house in Dale-street, for a glass of ale, carry ing with her ber.infant, which was seven months old. There she saw the prisoner, who observed to her that her child was not well. She said it had been suffering for some days from a bowel com plaint, and the prisoner then said he would give her a prescription for the child, which would relieve it. if she liked. She assented to this, and, the prisoner dic tated a prescription, which a young woman present wrote down, " 3 oz. of chalk, loz. of gum arabic, and 2 drachms of laudanum. ,Two teaspoonsful to be given as a dose." This Mrs. Corrie got made up at a druggist's shop, and administered one dose to the child, which, according to the evidence of the me dical witnesses, would contain fourteen drops of laudanum. The result was that the child became drowsy and died eight days afterwards. In the opinion of the surgeon who made the post mortem examination of the child, it had died from the effects of a narcotic poison. The prisoner in defence alleged that he had never told Mrs. Corrie to put laudanum in the prescription, but " rhea," that he had no intention to injure the child, and that he had dispensed medicine for twelve years and had never committed a mistake. His LORDSHIP,, .11 summing up, said the prisoner appeared only to have acted from motives of kindness; but if they were of opinion that he had acted with negligence, want of skill , presumption, and igno rance, they ought to find him guilty. The child had also died at a longer than the ordinary period after the administration of a narcotic poison, and it was therefore for them to consider whether or no the dose administered to it had caused its death. The jury found the prisoner Not Guilty. Thomas Sexsmith was indicted with two men named Lever and Green for having, on the 18th of April last, discharged a loaded gun at John Wainwright and Richard Redhead with intent to murder or to do some grievous bodily harm. Mr. Monk appeared for the prosecution ; Mr. Pol lock defended Sexsmith; and Mr. James the other prisoners. It appeared that Wainwright and Redhead, the two prosecutors are gamekeepers to the Earl of Darby, and on the night of the 18th of April last they were out with another keeper near Stockbridge-lane, watching for poachers. • Whilst there a pheasant flow out of & plantation pear them, amt ignaattistatrafte*— -wards they, Meerseliniy3Pa t initirrith a gun , and fob lowpd b, a dug, and thiee or four. other men armed with Alas. Wainwright' stopped Sexsmith, when immadiately there was. a cry raised of " Go into him ; shoot him." Sexsmith immediately levelled his gun at Rednead, and fired, cutting a hole through his hat, but doing him no further injury. Sexsmith was im mediately seizsd hold of, the other men escaping. There being no evidence fixing the identity of Lever and Green, they were acquitted by direction of his Lordship. Mr. PoLLocK then, addressing the jury on behalf of Sexsmith, contended that if he had intended to murder or do Redhead any bodily harm, there was nothing to have prevented him shooting him dead; but that the guu had evidently not been pointed at him. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sentenced to be transported for seven years. It is expected that the criminal business of the avize will terminate to-morrow. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. GLD COURT. (Before the CoMMON. SERGEANT.) • William Cooke, the prosecutor in the case which a ppeared in our Afternoon Edition of yesterday, was c harged with assaulting R o b ert Hi tchcoc k , one o f th e detendants who bad just been acquitted. In this case the prosecutor and the four other men included with him in the former indictment were examined as witnesses, and according to their evidence Graham, the broker, went to the house on the day in question for the purpose of levying the distress, and in consequence of some former violence that had taken place on a former occasion, he took Banks, Harris, and Hitchcock with him, in order to prevent aa breach of t t t e he t attempting t peace, n way, he accompanied th em a l so. It wits alleged that upon their mp makeoadmeeting Milton by the th e di s t ress th e y f oun d the house barricaded, and th e d efendant. who was in t h e f arm -yard, o rd ere d them off, and without any provocation threw two bricks at Hitchcock, and he was knocked down; and after this the defendant took u p a bill-hook and threatened to cut them with it, at the same time using very bad language, if they did not leave the place. The bill-hook was taken from him, and the witnesses stated that the defendant then took up a large hedge stake and struck Hitchcock a violent blow with it; and Harris said that the defend ant also struck him with the stick and broke one of his little fingers. Mr. PARRY, for the defence, endeavoured to show that the distress had not been legally carried out and that the defendant had used no more violence th an ' was necessary to expel persons who, he contended, stood in the position of trespassers. it ai two n eda The defendant received a very good c h aracter f or quiet and general good conduct. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty ; an d The COMMON-SERGWT said he w ou ld cons i der what sentence ought to be pronounced. Charles Pound and William Langford Jenk ins, persons of respectable appearance, and the latter very young man, surrendered to take take their trial for a misdemeanour in having unlawfully o large sum of money from William Newman by false lse a pretences. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Huddleston conducted the prosecution ; Mr. E. James, Q.C. , a nd Mr. Parry, defended Jenkins, and ,Mr. Clarkson appeared for the other defendant. William Newman, the prosecutor, deposed that be was a colour manufacturer in Chart-street, Hoxton., At the latter end of last December the defendlt Pound came to his house, accompanied by witnes 11 nephew, a person named Try, and he believed lie acted as his solicitor, and be was introduced to him in that capacity. Upon this occasion Pound produced a bill of exchange for 451. 93., which appeared to be accepted by the other defendant, and asked witness to discount it. He asked who Mr. Jenkins was, and the defendant replied that he would soon show him who he was ; and he pulled a paper out of his pocket which he said was an extract from the will of Mr. Jenkins's father, and which he had himself obtained from Doctors'-Commons, and he at the same time stated that Mr. Jenkins had been one of the largest ironmasters in existence, and he read from the will a age. Upon the -Upon statement to the effect that his s on, Wm. Langford Jenkins, was to receive 20,0 00 /. abso l ute l yupon the sth otafeAfapirtihl, of f Bs th O is ii r 'h e e p n re h se e n w ta n t u io ld n, oo wit me ne o s f s afterbill, d t e h d i v a ct h in e g wfiveentpetraceNnte..fo7r, interest s and shortly where he saw both the defendants, and Pound intro duced the other to him as "the rich young gent," and he at the same time sail that he had been articled property, fie very seldom attended his offLOO. Ab ou t to an attorney, but, as he was coming into thi s large, the 10th of January Jenkins called upon him and wanted him to advance 10/. or 121., and he then spoke to him about his expectation of the 20,0001., and he said it was true, and that, he should receive the amount at the time mentioned. After this Jenkins accepted a bill for 2001., and witness gave him 1001. in dash and made up the amount by some of his own tradesmen's bilk, which were paid when they arrived at maturity. There were other money and bill trans actions between them, and witness eventually be came responsible to the amount of 7801. During these proceedings the defendant Pound upon one oc casion told him that when Jenkins obtained his for tune they intended to set up as solicitors in partner ship, and that he should get him passed for that purpose. Cross-examined by Mr. JAMES—He was not a bill discounter, and was not in the habit of discounting bills. Could not say exactly when he first saw Jen kins, but•thought it was in the beginning of January. Di I not know that he was not of age till April,lBso, until he discovered that the bills he had given were of no value. Witness's son kept his accounts, and he drew some of the bills. He was not of age at the time he did so. The 100/. cash which he gave for the 2001. bill was made up partly of the 12/. he had advanced before, and of two bills for 50/. and 46/.. He only deducted 5 per cent. for interest. After this he got another bill for 2001. from Jenkins. For this bill he gave him cash at different times, and also paid bilis to tradesinen for him. He paid 80/. for wine. Was quite sure he had 201. or 251. in each in part payment of the amount of this Lill. Witness also gave him his own acceptance for 1001. The value of the bills he had from Jenkins was altogether 7001., and he would swear that out of this amount more than 120'. in cash was given to him. He accom panied Jenkins to a enachmaker's, and purchased a phaeton for him, for which he gave 521. 103. This was part of the consideration for the bills he had given. That phaeton was now in wit ness's possession. Jewellery to the amount of 401. was also part of the consideration. Witness's son ac companied Jenkins to the jeweller's shop when the purchase was made. Witness did not recommend Jenkins to come and reside near him at Hoxton, but he believed he took a house in the neighbourhood, and witness recommended him a person to furnish it. Was sure be did not ask the prisoner to put his name to three bills for 1001. each in order to raise money to set his son up in business, but he knew afterwards that it had been done. He believed that his son draw upon Jenkins. He was under age at the time, and had no means of paying the bills. Witness put his name to the bills, and a friend of his, named Wilson, who was a bill casher, dis counted two of them, and he believed 60 or 70 per cent. was charged for the interest. He had to pay these two bills when they became due. Witness kept all the money that was the produce of the two bills, but he had to make up the difference when they became due. He made all the advances in conse quenc~ of what Mr. Pound said about the will, and he only discovered that the statement was false upon subsequently going to Doctors'-commons and ex amining the will himself. By Mr. CLARKSON—He was aware that Mr. Pound had been acting for his nephew in trying to obtain some property to which he considered himself entitled, but he did not know that the 451. 9s. bill was for the use of his nephew. He never paid any money to Jenkins in the presence of Pound, but be told him of it afterwards. Re-examined—Witness had no advantage from any of the transactions with the tradesmen, and he had never received a farthing of the money back which he had advanced. John Newman, the son of the prosecutor, corrobo rated his evidence with regard to the original state ment made by Pound when the 451. 9s. bill was offered for discount. He also said that he was present when Pound introduced Jenkins as " the rich young gent.," and he at the same time said that he would be answerablefor any money or goods that might be advanced to him, and would take care they were paid for when he came of age. The witness also stated, that Jenkins during the transaction told him that his father had been so kind to him that he would allow him to draw upon him for 300/. to set him up in business, and he drew three bills for 1001. each ; and his father gave Jenkins his acceptance for 3001. in exchange. Upon being cross-examined, the witness said this 3001. bill formed a portion of the amount of which his father represented himself to have been defrauded, but it had never been presented for payment. He kept his father's accounts, and he could state that 3861. 12s. 6,1. had been advanced in_ hard cash to Jenkins. Witness was not of age when he drew up on Jenkins, and he knew also that he was not of age. Ile took the hills to Mr. Wilson's to be dis counted, but he refused to have anything to do with them unless his father put hii-asame to them. His father did endorse two of the bills, and Wilson then gave 1901. for them. Jenkins had none of the money, but he had his father's acceptance, which was as good as money. He had signed bills for his father as Newman and Co., and as Newman and Son, be fere he was of age. He was not a partner, but he understood he was to have a share of the profits of the business. In answer to further questions, the witness said he was now only 20 years old, and he was married in Piccadilly about two years ago, but had been separated from his wife for 16 months, and he had not given anything towards the support of his wife, and did not know how she was supported since they separated. Re-examined—His wife was 19 years old when he married her, and after the marriage he found out something about her that was very unpleasant, and left her in consequence. He always had the authority of his father when he accepted bills. The will of the father of the defendant Jenkins was then put in, and it appeared that the personal pro perty was sworn under 8,0001. There was, however, a copyhold estate, the value of which did not appear, but the whole of the property was devised to the de fendant. It appeared, however, that the property had been made the subject of a Chancery suit, which was still going on. Evidence was likewise adduced to show that Pound was not an attorney. Mr. JAMES then addressed the jury for the de fendant Jenkins, and, in the course of a forcible and able speech, he contended that there was not the least evidence in the cause to show that he had been guilty of fraud, and he contended that all the facts tended to show that the prosecutor and his son, being aware that he would be entitled to property to a considerable amount, had taken advantage of his youth and inexperience, and having got him into their power in the first instance, had induced him to put his name to bills to a large amount, hoping, in the result, to obtain possession of the whole of his fortune, and, finding they were foiled, they now sought to make the criminal law of the country the means of furthering their unworthy purposss. The Learned Counsel then called the attention of the jury to the precise form of the charge, and contended that there was nothing in the case to show that any false representation had really been made, for it appeared that the personal property of the defendant's father amounted to 8,000/., and there was an estate which, for all they knew to the contrary, might be worth more than 20,0001. The prosecutor also, he said, !night have seen the will at any time ; and it was perfectly clear that what he did was done with his eyes open, and that his only object was to pander to the extravagance or necessities of this young man, intending eventually to turn the transaction, when he had got him completely into his power, to his own benefit, by getting possession of the greatest portion of his property. Mr. CL&E.KSON also addressed the jury for Pound, particularly calling their attention to the fact that this defendant was not proved to have taken any share in the different bill transactions, or to have re ceived one farthing of the money that had been ad vanced by the prosecutor. The COMMON-SERGEANT summed up, and The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a ver dict of Not Guilty. TVIIITECHAPEL COUNTY COUI?r, Aug. 20. (Before Mr. Serjeant MANNING.) ABBOT V. MR. MURRAY—A MYSTERIOUS CASE. The plaintiff, a cowkeeper, of Jubilee-street, Mile.. end, sought to recover the sum of thirty shilling s from the defendant, a butcher, of Limehouse-fields. The Learned JUDGE, having asked for the particu lars of the demand, the plaintiff assured his Honour that the public had better not be enlightened. His HoNourt—Perhaps you have no objection to enlighten the Court ?—(Laughter.) The plaintiff I would rather not expose the profession—(L ud laughter)—but I suppose I must admit that the cow was sold a butcher for bad beef—(Laughter)-12ut your Honour it is customary. His HoNouß—What b, , came of the cow ; _was it slaughtered ? The plaintiff fenced at the question, and the defendant was silent. A voice—Sauseges, oh !—(Laughter.) The Learned JUDGE, in calling upon the defen dant for an answer to the suit, elicited that the cow might have been disposed of at Cow-cross. His HONOUR—For what purpose ? The plaintiff and defendant again hesitated to answer. The Learned JUDGE observed that it was clear -the defendant had purchased the,beast, and that he had a right to pay the amount agreed for.—Verdi3t for plaintiff., POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE E. CAUTION TO RAILWAY PORTERS.—Robert Sears was charged by a gentleman, named Abraham, with having need language calculated to excite to a breach of the peace. The, complainant had accompanied some ladies to the London terminus of the Blackwell Railway, of which the defendant appeared to be a porter. The defendant was asked by the complainant to assist in putting luggage in one of the carriages, and instead of performing what was considered to be his duty, used language of the most revolting kind, and upon being expostulated with, exhausted his well-stored vocabulary of abuse in the presence of the ladies. The defendant upon being called upon to answer the serious charge, gave Alderman Gibbs a taste of his quality by loudly asserting that "the gentle man, as he called himself, was telling nothing but the grossest falsehood, that the only civ:l and respect able person present upon this occasion was himself, and that accordingly he ought himself to be the no• cuser, instead of the accused." Alderman GIBBS (to the defendant)—Have you got any witnesses to prove that you give no offence ? Defendant—l was there myself, and when he ordered ma to take his luggage to the carriage, I told him to take it himself. He then used the moat saucy lan guage, and I never said a word in reply. All I can say is, that a more false man never lived. Mr. Abraham—lt is impossible that I could pro duce witnesses upon the occasion. They are ladies, and the situation in which I was placed at the time was, therefore, the more intolerable. A gentleman was near us at the time, and he cried out to me, " Why do you not knock him down ?" Alderman Ginns—l suppose the defendant does not belong to the company ? Defendant—No; I am a drover. I was never so much insulted in any life.—(Laughter.) Alderman GlBBS—Defendant, you must pay the fine of 205., or go to prison for fourtee n d a y s . De fendant—What I pay 20s. ? Not a bit of it ; I'll go to prison. I was the person as was insulted, and I won't pay a mag. The defendant was then taken away, and continued to declaim against the sentence in the loudest tone while he was within the hearing of the bench. Mr. Abraham said the fellow had run about the luggage of the passengers as if he had been an autho rised servant, and it was admitted by the officers of the company that he was occasionally employed on the line. BOW-STREET. THE CASE OF HOCUSSING AND Ronnaar. — J. Cot ter, alias Cole, was re• examined, charged with hocus sing and the robbery of 3001. Mr. Peter Thwaites, a fruit salesman in Covent garden-market, said that on the afternoon of Friday week last, he entered the Mercers' Arms public house, Mercer-street, Long-acre, and there met the prisoner and several other persons, who were drink ing in front of the bar. He entered into conversation with them, and ultimately called for some liquor for which he paid. He had th e n i n hi s possession a can vass bag, containing two 1001. notes, two cheques for 1001., and about 201. in gold. He afterwards called for a bottle of wine, and he had scarcely drank a glass of it when he became insensible, and when he recovered he found himself very ill in bed at his re sidence. All his money was gone. Other witnesses proved finding the prosecutor in front of the bar of the Mercer's Arms, quite insensi ble, and with his pockets turned inside out and all his money gone. The prisoner was observed sitting by the side of the prosecutor, and a female on the other side, previous to his becoming insensible. The pri soner and his companions were also seen running to a cab, which appeared to be waiting for them, and one said, " Have you got the money ?" and another replied, " Yes." They were pursued, but all escaped with the exception of the prisoner, who was appre hended in a house in Endell-street soon afterwards. Mr. Norton, a solicitor, attended for the prosecu• tion, and said since the last examination the cheques and a portion of the mosey had been found by a boy in the neighbourhood. In consequence of the pub licity given to the case through the medium of the newspapers, the money and cheques were restored to the prosecutor. The notes have not yet been found. He would ask the magistrate for a further remand, as some information had been obtained by the police, which would probably lead to the recovery of th other property, and the apprehension of the prisoner's companions. Remanded fur a week. • PROSECUTIONS BY TIIE SOCIETY FOR THE SUP PRESSION OF VlCE.—William Wynne, keeper of a print shop, 34, Holy well-street, Strand, appeared upon a summons, under the Vagrant Acts, at the in stance of the Secretary for the Suppression of Vice, for unlawfully and wilfully causing a certain inde cent print to be exposed in his shop window, to which he pleaded guilty. The defendant, in pursuance of the advice of his counsel, threw himself on the 'mercy of the Court, and solemnly promised that the offence should not be repeated. M. HENRY having ascertained from Mr. Prichard, the secretary, that such a course would be agreeable, ordered the defendant to put in bail, himself 801., and two sureties in 401. each, to be of good behaviour for twelve months, with the condition, that all such prints and publications in his possession should be given up to the secretary, who should be allowed to examine the stock for that purpose, and with a caution, that the full period •1 three months, with hard labour, should be inflicted, if upon sufficient proof, such another charge should at any future time be brought against him. Henry May, who keeps a shop at No. 17, in the same street, was also summoned for exposing, or causing to be exposed, a similar publication, and the case having been fully made out, he was sentenced to imprisonment for three months in the House of Cor rection, with hard labour. The defendant was then removed in custody, and in a few minutes Mr. Prichard returned to the court to inform the magistrate that a bookseller, who had become surety for the defendant Wynne, had loaded a cart with all the prints and publications, for the pur pose of conveying them away, instead of allowing them to be destroyed, in obedience to the order given by the Court. Mr. HENRY directed the officer to request his at tendance, to explain his conduct; and on his arrival, he said he was in the book trade, that he had pur • chased the stock, as waste paper, for 151., as the re ceipt produced would show; besides, the greater part of the goods were of the most moral character. Mr. lIENRY considered the society was entitled to have the papers delivered up to the police, and if that was not done, and the money returned, he should most certainly order a conviction. The bail said he would maintain his right in defiance of every person, the property being his, and left the court. Mr. HENRI- being subsequently consulted upon the subject, said he should decline giving any advice, and remarked that such were the fruits of entering into any compromise with such persons. MARYLEBONE. ROBBERY BY A TERI - RESPECTABLE PERSON.— Yesterday Mr. Simpson Gordon, residing at No. 2, Abbey-terrace, St. John's-wood, was placed at the bar before the sitting m agistrate, Mr. Long, char ge d with having stolen 3 lbs. weight . of baco n , va l ue ls. 100., the property of Mr. William Merrill, No. 3, New Church-street, Lisson-grove. , Mr. Cooper, solicitor, attended for the pri soner , many of whose friends were in court during the pro ceedings. Alfred Merrel (brother to the prosecutor) deposed that on the previous evening between 9 and 10 o'clock, the prisoner entered the shop and asked for 31. worth of eggs.. They w ere h an d e d to him, and after he had paid for them he tasted some Bd. butter, of which he purchased h a lf a pound. He put the eggs into his pocket, and opening a handkerchief laid it down upon some baeon upon the window board, when he put the butter i n t o i t and then quitted the place. A piece of bacon was imraediately missed, and prose cutor feeling sati s fi e d th at t h e pr i soner must have stolen it, sent after him his lad, who presently re turned with th e i n f ormat i on t h at pr i soner h a d to ld him he had p a id f or t h e b acon, an d t h at i t was " a ll right;" he, prosecutor, then ran out and called police," asid prisoner was taken into custody. Pianigan, 136 S, said that he stopped the prisoner as he was running very fast along North•street, Lisson-grove, and upon opening his handkerchief he found a piece of bacon therein; he, prisoner, was then conveyed to the station-house, where he was locked up, and on the way from thence to this court he offered to give witness 51. i f he would make it up with the prosecutor. Mr. Cooper, who could not struggle against the clear evidence which had been adduced, remarked that the prisoner was a very respectable person, and was willing to make any reparation in his power. The prisoner was fully committed for trial. GALWAY PO6T-OFFICIL--W. are enabled at last to announce the appointment of Anthony Lynch, Esq., eldest son of M. A.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. - - - - - --- It will have been seen by our announcement that all the reports relative to the visits of the Board of Admi ralty to the various dockyards have been merely specula tion. The First Lord has gone to Osborne and accom ponies the Queen on her Majesty's two or three days' cruise to Antwerp. The senior naval Lord has pro cetdetl on a trip to visit the Russian and Swedish Squa drons at Kiel; Captain Houston Stewart, C. 8., is absent on the-Continent; the Hon, W. Cowper, M.P_, is iu the country; and Captain W. A. B. Hamilton, the service will regret tu hear, has been seriously- indisposed sLt Boulogne. Rear-Admiral the Hon. M. F. F. Berkeley, C. 8., M.P., Capttiu Milne, with the Chief Secretary, Mr. Parker, M.P., are at the Admiralty, conducting the routine business. A curt or committee of inquiry has been held at Devonport, with reference to the allegations of the In flexible steam-sloop, Commander P. 11, Dyke, having touched the ea.t end of the breakwater on her arrival at Devonport; but al, hough the signal-man at Mount Wise, three miles distant, could perceive the accident, it ap pears no one on board either saw or felt that she had struck, notwithstanding that she had rubbed off so much of the copper from her portbow to the paddle-wheel; there will, therefore, be no court-martial, and this most celebrated and extraordinary steamer will pursue her expensive voyage to the West Indies under the ex-com mander of the Flying Fish. As the irrflexible is proved to take the ground so quietly, it is to be hoped that as a matter of precaution their Lordships will order a large quantity of copper sheathing to be supplied to her, and which she can well stow, to supply against future uncon scious accidents.—Morning Herald.

WOOLWICH, AUGUST 20 —The Lightning steam vessel, Master-Commander Petley, returned to Wool icli to-day from Diver. It is said she was sent round to that port to convey his Excellency the Nepaulese Ambass&dor and suite across the channel on his return to India, but his Excellency had postponed the time of his departure, and only intended leaving this afternoon by the regular railway communication to Folkstone, and thence to Boulogne and Paris by the vessals of the company.

The following is given by the VosNiche Ztitung, as an account of thu Russian naval force on the 9th of August : 4 line-of-battle ships of 120 guns. 6 of 100 to 110 guns. 26 I ef 80 to 90 guns. 13 of 70 to 80 guns. 30 frigates of all classes 50 corvettes, brigs, and schooners. 34 st. an-frigates, sloops, and packets. This naval force is stated to be divided into five squa drons; the Baltic squadron consists o: about 4,000 men, including the artillery; but the paper states that the crews are not of the very best quality of men, and amongst them are many Jews from Poland. [We believe this force is under-stated, and that the Russians have more three and two-deckers in the Baltie and Black Sea fleets, and that they have nearer 50 than 30 steamers. Moreover, we have seen some of the Rus sian ships well and ably manned, and that there are a great many Bothnians and Finlanders among the crews. —Herald.] THE LOSS OF LIFE IN THE AfERSE}. LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.—The following are some far ther details of the melancholy accident which happened on tho Mursey on Sunday evening last, by tho upset ting of a small boat off liastham, when nine lives were lost:— The party in the boat bad been alternately cruising stout the river and enjoying themselves on the shore during the day, and between six and seven o'clock in the evening they put in at Eastham, and proceeded to the tap belonging to the hotel, where they partook together of half a gallon of ale. At this time the whole of them appeared perfectly sober. Amongst the company in the house, but nut connected with the boating party, were two elderly and respectably-looking individuals—one of whom, it is understood, is a gentleman of small pro perty residing at Birkenhead. His name is Thorp. The other is a clerk in one of our Liverpool houses. They had been passing the day in the village of Eastham, and had returned to the ferry for the purpose ,of proceeding home by the steam-packet. Having fallen in with the boating party, an arrange ment was made that they should proceed along with them to Liverpool. As yet we have not heard of any of the bodies being found but three. This morning the boat was run ashore, near Eastham, and there was found in its forecastle the body of Eliza Walker and the two children, James and William Spencer. Eliza Walker, it appears, was in service. in the capacity of nurse, and ae children found with her belonged to her mistress. The unfortunate girl took them to Eastham without the eonsent.of ;heir par , ..nts. The names of the persons who were drowned are — William Biocide, James and William Spencer. John Youd, Bell-street.; Eliza Walker end Nancy M'Fall, John Duncan, John Gerrard, and Thomas Gerrard, Bell-street. jos The ph following are ii o t i h j r names s p t r h t e l;;o per s ons elid,iesrhley r ! g,s saved:-- tlaret7e. t ; k`; ullie Cooper, Bell-street; and the t men lying at the terry tap. COMBINATION OUTBAGB.—We regret extremely to state that upon Saturday evening last, when the railway waggon containing parcels was within two miles and a quar ter of Sligo, at about five o'clock in the afternoon, it was attacked by a party of men, who, having felled the driver, a man named William Walsh, with a blow over the temple, shot one of the two horses which were drawing the waggon. A man named Michael Marran has been identified as one of the party engaged. Walsh is still in the infirmary, th oug h his injuries are not very serioas. The outrage is supposed to be the result of a combination of parties - injured by the run ning of this parcel waggon between blullingar and Sligo.— Sligo Journal.
