It is reported that the Mediterranean force, under Vice-Admiral Deans Dundas, is to be increased, and that the Channel force is to be at once formed into active service divisions. Admiral Dundas's fleet is in the most excellent order. Both ships and men have now a little rest after ten months' cruise at sea. It is expected, how ever, that they will be on the move again by the end of this month. We learn from Malta that the damage done to the Sampson, steam-frigate, by the collision between her, and the Arethusa, 50, has been greatly exaggerated. The damaged vessel is by this time nearly ready for sea again. The weather had been bad in the Mediterranean, and the shipwrights at Malta were working hard to re pair the disasters. Captain Robert Streatfield (1851), on the retired list of 18M, di e d a f ew d ays s i nce, aged 68. He was in the expedition to Copenhagen in 1808, and served continu ously for 14 years during the war. Mr. J. M'Swiney 0.847), of the Calypso, 18, in the West Indies, promoted to the death vacancy in that ship, has been confirmed in his advancement. Mr. William Lang has been appointed master's assis tant of the Imperieuse, 51, screw, Chatham. The officers of the dockyards are reporting against the present, system of performing the repairs and new works by contract, and recommending that they shall be done by hired men. PORTSMOUTH, MARCH 8. • The Agamemnon, 91, Screw, Captain Sir Thomas Maitland.—lt becomes almost a melancholy duty to notice the daily cases manifesting themselves on board 'this unfortunate vessel. We are at a loss to understand the policy of fumigating the Agamemnon whilst her re ceiving hulk (Camperdown) is lashed alongside, and a gangway communication permitted between the ships. One thing is pretty certain, that there is every chance for this epidemic to go through the whole crew, officers and all ; neither is it any joke for the country to be paying 600 or 700 men who are cooped up in this help less and miserable manner, when they might have been removed to a distance from the affected, and escaped this lingering and unfortunate sickness.—Herald. The Drake, lighter, sailed this mo rn i ng t o th e east ward with s t ores for this dockyard. The Elfin, Royal yacht steam-tender to the Victoria and Albert, Master Commander Alfred Balliston, went out of harbour this morning to Southampton, and re turned in the afternoon. - The Conflict, 8, screw, is getting fast ready for ser vice ; her topmasts are on end, and hands aloft com pleting her rigging. The Duke of Wellington, 131, screw, Captain Henry Byam Martin, is progressing in the most satisfactory manner in every department. It is with much pleasure we witness the energy and zeal displayed to get this noble ship out of the hands of the dockyard officers. PLYMOUTH, MARCH 7. Eer Majesty's frigate Leander, 50, Captain George St. V. King, which left Portsmouth on the 12th of February for a cruise off the Western Islands, rounded Terceira on the 22d of February, and arrived off Cork on the sth of March. She left that port at mid-day on Saturday, and arrived here at half past seven o'clock last evening. The Leander hove to off Cork, and received orders from Admiral Purvis in person to proceed at once for this port, in conse quence of the prevalence of typhus fever and small pox on board the ships there. The crew of the Leander ere all well. She had fine weather, with the wind from the eastward until the 26th of February, since which northerly winds have prevailed. Spoke, Feb. 16, in lat. 42 37 N., long. 13 8 W., the English ship Looshtach, for Coquimbo ; 21st, 20 miles N.E. of St. Michael's, British schooner Dispatch, inquired the bearings of the island, and then bore up for it ; 25th, lat. 44 32 N., long. 26 53 W., Dutch ship Maria, 84 days from Bata via to Amsterdam, wished to be reported to Hermann Philips or Hermann Smith ; March 4, lat. 50 52, long. 11 22, 78 miles from Cape Clear, passed a large screw steamer, going west. The Arrogant, 47, screw steam-frigate, Captain S. G. Fremantle, whi',h left Cork on Saturday previous to the Leander, is expected here in the course of the day. Tine Encounter, 14, screw steam-ship, Captain W. D. o CJallaghan, from Liverpool, will probably arrive here trfrday. The Magicienne, 15, paddle-wheel steam-frigate, Cap rain T. Fisher, went out of harbour on Saturday. The screw steam-ship Sa , nspareil, 81, Captain S. C. Dacres, with topgallant masts struck, steamed into har bour on Friday last, against a strong head wind. The Avon, 3, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, which sailed on Friday with supernumeraries for Portsmouth, had on board an eight-oared gig, 36ft. long, built by Mr. Waterman, of Anderton, in this port, for his Royal Highness Prince Albert. THE WEST INDIES. The Commander-in-Chief, Vice-Admiral Sir G. F. Seymour, K.C.8., G.C.H., in his flag-ship Cumberland, 70, Captain Seymour, with the Highflyer, 24 (screw), Captain Heathfield, left Port Royal for Bermnda Feb. 3.

MANNING THE NAM—The report on manning the navy has trot yet been made public, but copies of the the document were flitting about amongst the members of Cal);_liet and the committee last week: The United "' e rviee Gazette says :—" The scope of the inquiry, as zirgiri,any contemplated, has been wide enough. Ac __rf,e:;:rzito the statement of the noble duke, who lately Ac pr,; at the Admiralty, it embraces the state of the an from the day he entered.th pereived into Greenwich Ilos e navy as a boy until pital." It is one of the great defects of modern inquiries, that in the labyrinth of investigation the practical object of inquiry' is lost ; and so we fear with regard to the " manning the navy" question. A mass of details has been allowed to con fuse the notions of the committee, that the doubtful is only rendered more secure. The history of the state of the seaman from the day of his entering the navy as a boy, to his reception as a veteran in Greenwich is a mere episode—interesting to magazine readers, but too romantic for any useful purposes of the pre sent day, and, moreover, it would be only a rechauffe of Marryat, Dane, and Co. All we want to hear of now is the present condition of the boy and the present condition of the A. 8., the position and pay of the warrant-officers, and the hopes of the boys, men, and petty and warrant officers of the navy, of pay, pro motion, retirement, and pension for their widows. There is another important subject which materially affects the question of "manning the navy," and that is the subject of punishment, as well as reward, and the entire reforma tion of the naval code. This subject was very slightly touched upon in the House of Commons last week ; but the Admiralty may depend upon it that no scheme of manning the navy will have any good effect upon the seamen of the present day if it be not accompanied with some measure of revision of naval punishments. Seamen continue to " earn their money like horses ;" but they are grown too intelligent now to "spend it like asses ;" and what is more, they begin to have a greater respect for themselves, their wives, families, and connections, to be subjected to be tied up, without open and fair inquiry, and flogged like poor "Uncle Tom" and the black slaves of Cuba, Brazil, or America.—Plymouth Mail. THE SUE, LONDON, WEDN E SDAY EVENING, MARCH 9, 1853. AUSTRALIAN GOLD FIELDS. The Ceylon Times of the 18th Jan., which has come to hand this morning, contains the following interesting particulars, copied from the Maitland Mercury, respecting the state and prospects of some of the northern gold fields : We have been obliged with information by a perfectly reliable party, which appears to us to settle the doubts as to the character of the Bingera gold field, so far as it has yet been proved. Some seven weeks since a practised Turon and Tambaroura digger, a resident of Maitland, was induced by the exciting accounts of the success of the Bingera field, which reached Maitland from Sydney, to proceed to Bingera himself, to see whether it would be worth while to take a claim and work. He went by way of the Hanging Rock diggings. When he reached Bingera, he found that out of some 200 persons scattered about, there were about a dozen or more parties, eaeh of three, four, or five men, who were making from two to four ounces per day, but that the others were doing little or nothing ; great numbers arrived every day during his stay, and about as many left every day disappointed. He found on inquiry, and on work ing himself, that the productive ground was con fined to a very small space on the forest land, and was even there purely surface diggings, the gold commencing among the very roots of the grass, and in most of the good claims extending not deeper than nine inches in profitable quantity, and in none of the claims going lower than three feet from the surface ; the most profitable of all, the Blacksmith's Claim, which lay in a kind of shallow gully, ceasing at three feet. All round the limited rich ground were holes sunk and being worked, many by thoroughly practised hands, and they yielded very little, not above 15 grains of gold per day, and as carting the stuff to water cost 4s. per load, none of the parties were working to profit except those on the small isolated spot of rich ground. Numbers of persons were out prospecting all round, many of whom told our informant that they had run the creeks down to the Big River, and had prospected on the Big River itself, finding gold in small specks every where they tried, but in such minute quantities that it was not profitable to work. Our informant himself ran down one of the creeks six miles, and his trials yielded precisely the same result, gold everywhere, more or less, but in too small a quan tity to be profitable ; in one case our inform ant washed out some stuff from off the bed rock, a hole having been sunk 18 feet to it, and he did not get a speck of gold. The conclusion on his own mind, after five days' thorough inquiry and ex amination, was that the country presented every appearance of being auriferous ; that the productive part yet found must very shortly be worked out and abandoned • that up to that time, rather more than a fortnight ago, no other productive place than the original small one had been found ; that its yield had been greatly exaggerated by report ; and that prospecting for further rich spots could only be well prosecuted by parties from the imme diate neighbourhood, who could take advantage of transient rains to wash the trial stuff in many dif ferent places. He does not doubt the possibility of other rich spots being found, or even that eventually profitable winter diggings may be discovered in the neighbourhood, but he is not at all satisfied that they will be found, thinking it quite a matter of doubt. But our informant has formed a very different conclusion as to the Hanging Rock diggings. He found about the Hanging Rock creeks that many parties were doing well, one party having obtained 27 ounces in a day ; and that on the Peel diggings, on the A. A. Company's estate, say eight miles from the Hanging Rock, the diggings were very rich and profitable. The disputes as to the right, or rather power of the A. A. Company to prevent by force diggers from working these alluvial diggings, pre vented our informant from seeking to work there, but he saw several places in the neighbourhood of the Hanging Rock where he would willingly have obtained claims and worked, had it not been that the abundance of water prevented the hope of pro fitable working for some time. Great numbers of the disappointed Bingera, diggers came back by way of the Hanging Rock, as did our informant ; and very many of them immediately set to work, the greater part going to the Peel diggings on the A. A. Company's land. Our informant satisfied himself, by personal examination, of the great richness of these diggings, and of the immense wealth apparently contained in the celebrated quartz ridge on the land, the gold in the quartz being universally diffused, and quite plain to the eye, and in his opinion the immediate banks an d bed of the Peel itself, in that neighbourhood, will prove very rich in gold when tie water has les sened. But even supposing the company succeed in preventing diggers from working the alluvial diggings on their estates, the neighbourhood of the Hanging Rock affords so many profitable spots that great quantities of gold will be produced at these diggings during the ensuing summer. INTERESTING TO NAVIGATORS.-THE FALKLAND ISLANDS. Under this head we find in a recent number of the New York Express the following remarks, in reference to the Falkland Islands, now attracting so much atten tion in this country, because of their exceeding eligibi lity for purposes of transportation, when the dispatch of convicts to Australia shall cease. The importance of these islands to Great Britain, in a commerciaLsense, is strengthened from the fact of the rapidly increasing number of Australian vessels coming home by way of Cape Horn ; and, we believe, it is the intention of the proprietors of some of our great lines of steamers to establish a coal depot there, in which case there will necessarily be a vast augmentation to the advan tages already specified by our American contempo rary, namely—" For the interest of American and other shipowners, whalers, and all other vessels, it cannot be too generally made known that the Falkland Islands, off the coast of South America, now afford an excellent station, with many good and safe harbours, at which vessels of every class may find supplies. Ships proceeding to or from the East Indies, China, or from the Pacific coast and Polynesia, round the Cape of Good Hope orCape Horn, will find, at the Falkland Islands, the means, in ordi nary cases of damage, of repair, supplies of provisions, &c., in short, all such stores as are required by merchant vessels. There, there are no port or Custom-house charges, whereas, at all the South American continental ports, whether in Brazil or on the River Plate, the charges are very high, delays and vexations frequent, and labour and articles required for repairs exorbitant. But the most serious objection to the Brazilian ports is the prevalence of a malignant yellow fever, particularly dangerous to the ships' companies, on board vessels in the harbours. From these reasons, as well as from the conveniences and facilities afforded by the authorities, and by the new settlements at these islands, the number of vessels touching there has been very much increased, and will, no doubt, continue to increase in every suc ceeding year."

A frightful accident occurred on the premises of the London and North-Western Company at Longsight, near Manchester, on Tuesday morning, whereby four men lost their lives, and at least a dozen men received serious injuries, seven being conveyed to the Manchester Royal Infirmary for medical aid there. It seems that the engine, No. 1, an old four-wheeled engine, made by Sharp, Roberts, and Co., some fourteen years ago, and one of the first put upon the line, if not the very first, having undergone "a thorough repair," was in the Polygon shed at Longsight, 'ready to start to act as pilot engine at the Standedge tunnel, on the Hudders field and Manchester line. Between half-past eight and nine o'clock a large number of men, variously estimated from fifty to eighty, were in the Polygon, breakfasting, and the engine No. 1 was in steam, standing upon one of the long ash-pits, while Hefron, the driver, was oiling it, assisted by three or four men. This would be between ten minutes to nine and nine o'clock, and in a few minutes more the driver would have taken the engine forward upon the turn-table, in the centre of the building, in order that its head might have been reversed, as it stood towards Manchester in stead of towards Huddersfield, when suddenly the men inside were alarmed by a tremendous report and con cussion of air. The place was immediately filled with steam and smoke, and a portion of the building came rattling down, overwhelming a very large number of them. As soon as the smoke and steam had cleared away, the persons who found themselves uninjured, hastened into the place and found the tender standing where it had been before the occurrence, with the back wheels of the engine, and the plate over them, on which the driver stands, still adhering to the tender. The en gine itself was some thirty paces off, beneath the centre of the building, and it was from that the fire-box had exploded. On looking for the persons injured they dis covered four men dead in the ash-pit next to that upon which the engine had been standing ; and as there was a large piece of the left side of the fire-box, and a portion of the frame of the engine near them, it was clear that they had been killed by it. Their names were James Moore, James Snowden, William Black, all assistant boiler makers, and Thomas Gresty, a fitter. Gresty's skull had been struck about the centre of the forehead, and nearly carried away ; another man had both his legs broken, and the other two were dreadfully mangled. The explosion brought down about a third of the roof of the building, which is a lofty shed of many sides, as its name implies, covered by slates, with a wood casing internally. The following seven persons were got from beneath the debris, and having been placed in a waggon, were taken down the line to the Manchester Royal Infirmary :—William Cowsell, of Manchester, laceration of, the scalp and fractured knee, a bad case ; Ralph Brundrett Gordon Brook, lace ration of the thigh ; Edward Hefron, compound fracture of the thigh and scalds ; Charles Clyde, fractured arm and leg ; Joseph Ainsworth, laceration of the scalp ; William Cheetham, of Longsight, severe lacerations ; Robert Tabley, severe scalds. Numerous others were injured, but they were taken to their own homes in the immediate neighbourhood, their injuries being less se vere ; but some received frightful wounds. Th cause of the explosion, as far as can be at present ascertained, is clearly over-pressure of steam. There were appearances about the engine which caused some of the men to leave theished for fear, and it is said that one of them remarked to Hefron how heavily his steam was blowing off, to which he merely replied, " Yes, it was." This was but a minute before the explosion ; two of the men referred to had only got out if the shed when the explosion occurred. The engine it seems was worn out. Some of the tubes at the side were quite filled up, and some of the long stays were corroded very much ; facts which seem to prove a want of supervision. The force of the, concussion was so great that it blew away every window in the shed, although the frames were of cast iron ; and it lifted up the floor of the read irg-room, and threw the men from their seats. Three cast-iron pillars, twenty-seven feet long, and about twelve inches and a half in diameter, were thrown down with the roof. A coroner's inquest will be held to-day at the Waggon and Horses, Longsight, by Mr. Rutter, on view of the bodies, and no doubt a strict inquiry will be made into the efficiency of the engine. At present there appears to be blame attached to those who had to look over the engine, in exposing an old piece of machinery to a strain it could not stand. TEE FATAL RAIL I AY ACCIDENT NEAR BOLTON. The following are the further proceedings which oc curred. It will be seen that the inquiry is adjourned, the jury desiring some scientific opinion : Joshua Worrall, banksman to Mr. Fletcher of Pen dleton, deposed : I went to the place by instruction, as fast as possible, and got there about five minutes past six. I found some carriages upset and broken, and I assisted to get the people out of the carriages. I found Croston, the engineer, upon the line. He was dead. He was part inside and part outside on the main line. The cokeman we found beneath a carriage which was standing upon its wheels. He was quite dead. Mr. Hugh Sandeman, of Portland-street, Manchester, sworn : I identified the child as belonging to Mr. G. Freeland. Barbour, of the Grange House, Edinburgh. llt was aged 4i years. Both Mr. and Mrs. Barbour were in the train, with two other children and two nurses ac companying them ; another child was seriously injured, and is now dead. They were coming to Manchester from Edinburgh. Had exceeding doubts of the correctness of the ideas of those who had spoken of the speed of the train ; should the inquiry be adjourned, they would hear evidence of passengers to show the train was going at a much higher speed than named. It was excessively high. The Foreman said it would be exceedingly desirable to have that information. Mr. Sandeman said it should be given, if possible. James Wolsteneroft, of Clifton: . collier, assisted in pulling Simmonds from beneath the train. Mr. H. Blackmore, superintendent of the line, said— . . It is nearly five miles from Bolton to the place, and about two-and-a-half miles from Halshaw Moor. They regulate their speed according to the time in the books, and the limit for express engines is about thirty miles an hour. All they have to do is to account for the time lost, not to make it up. Messrs. Brassey and Co. are contractors for the repairs of the line, and Mr. Izat, under the resident engineer, Mr. Watts, is superintend ent of the line. • In answer to the Foreman, Captain Laws said—lt was the duty of Mr. Izat to go over the lino personally every day, and he. had several divisional superintendents under him. The gradients are lin 200 from Halshaw Moor to a little beyond where the accident happened. There is no curve there of less radius than 1f mile, and there is no necessity for slackening speed. It is a flat curve. Roger Barrington, station-master at Dixonfold, said -It w as within two or three minutes of six o'clock when the train passed my station. It was not going at more than the usual pace for an express train, and it appeared to be all right. A boy upon the bridge gave me information that the train was off the line, and I then put on my signal and ran down the line. When half way down I met the guard, and I went back to atop the other trains. I had not observed any defect in any part of the line ; but it is not my duty to examine the line. Mr. Wm. Hurst, locomotive superintendent of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Company, deposed : I know the engine No. 13. Croston was the driver of it. About three weeks ago it was under repair. It had a general overhaul, and was put in good order. It was put on the line new in September, 1847. It might have been a fortnight or three weeks under repair, and after being finished three weeks has been working ever since up to the time of the accident. It had had considerable repairs before, probably once every six months, but not oftener than usual. They are examined before they go out every day. It was a four-wheel-engine, and it is a matter of opinion as to whether such an engine is as good as a six-wheel. I think they are, all things considered. I have seen the engine since the accident, but it does not appear to be much injured. I believe the axle was broken before the train got off the line, from the evi dence on the sleepers. It is the left axle, and the iron is broken within the axle-box. There are marks of a wheel upon the sleepers of the inside rail for several yards before there are any on the outside rail, so that it would appear that the inside axle broke, and was kept with the box in which it works for the distance it ran. A juror said they were fully an inch out of gauge that Friday night after the occident. Mr. Hurst considered that the breaking of the axle might have been caused by a collision or a serious oscil lation, but by which he could not say. The oscillation he had spoken off would not be produced upon a curve ; it might upon a straight line. The engine weighed 14 tons, and he had never had any complaints of her. She had had new tubes and tires, and her general overhaul was once every six months. Mr. Blackmore recalled—Fixed about two minutes and a half as the time that would elapse in pulling up at Halshaw Moor, stopping the the time described, and getting into full speed again. Mr. Sandeman withdrew his notice of intention to bring forward witnesses to prove the speed. It would only be the assertion of one gentleman against that of another. The jury then proceeded to discuss whether they should proceed further that night, or not. The Foreman thought it would be desirable to have some one to speak to the general character, and not to confine themselves to the mere breaking of the axle. Mr. Lewis tendered Mr. Izat, the superintendent of the line, and Mr. Watts, the resident engineer. The Foreman—they had better have some one uncon nected with the company. A long discussion took place with closed doors, and when the public were admitted again, the Coroner said the jury had formed an opinion that the train was run ning at an excessive speed, and that the line was not in good order, and therefore they desired that the Govern ment inspector and Mr. Nasmyth and Mr. Fairbairn should inspect, or some other competent person, and say whether the engine and carriages were in such a state as to justify such a rate of speed. The inquest was then adjourned to Friday. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE MERSET.-011 Monday morning, about ten o'clock, five men were sitting on the edge of the landing stage at Seacombe, on the Birken head side of the river, leaning against the chain, when one of the ferry steamers came up, bumped against the stage, and one of the iron rods supporting the pro tecting chain snapped, and the men fell into the river.

(Continued from our First Edition of yesterday.) SOUTHAMPTON. A considerable number of other non-resideit voters were then called, but their evidence only went to show that they had received letters from the Liberal agents, stating that their travelling expenses would be paid if they came and voted, and that, after polling, they re ceived sums varying from 1/. to 3/. 10s. on the account of those expenses. An attempt was made to show that extravagant allowances were given to the voters in this respect ; but most of the witnesses declared that they were out of pocket, notwithstanding the sums they re ceived. In the course of their examination, The Chairman observed, that it seemed that several of the witnesses did not get sufficient to cover their out lay. Mr. Alexander said, however that might be, he should contend that allowances in respect of travelling were illegal. The committee adjourned at four o'clock until 11 to- morrow. DEPARTURE OF DR.

In taking this step, which after mature delibera tion I conscientiously believe to be an act of duty, I would fain hope that I shall meet with your approba tion. I should have deemed it right to consult you pre vious to my departure, had time permitted me to call a meeting ; as it i s , I have only been able to obta in the sanction of a f ew o f my f r i en d s an d s upporters during . a hurried visit t o A y l es b ury on M on d a y last. I have rea son to hope that your interests will in no way suffer by my absence, and I need only add that nothing but an imperative sense of duty would have induced me to leave my place in Parliament during the session. I trust I shall very shortly be again at my post ; and relying upon your kind indulgence, I beg to subscribe myself, yours very truly,--A. H. LAYARD."

Medical aid hadno f effleectt her raitn ever in alleviating her sufferings, the attacks a weak and debilitated condition, and her bodily health was very much impaired. In this deplorable state she was induced to try Holloway's Pills, and by persevering in their use the pains became gradually diminished, and ultimately she was restored to health and strength. Sold by all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's I Establishment, 244, Strand, Loudon. COUNTRY MARKETS. LIVERPOOL—IT-ARCH 8.
