'HE FRENCH EMPIRE. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday, but their leading columns are directed to the dis cussion of topics of a purely local interest. The city of Nantes has voted an unlimited credit for the purpose of defraying the expenses of giving a worthy reception to the Emperor, in the event of his Majesty visiting that part of Brittany. At the Bourse yesterday the market for public securities was dull, and the business transacted was at a decline on yesterday's quotations, with a down ward tendency in prices at its close. The Three and the Four-and-a-Half per Cents. for Cash fell 50c., and for the Account 50c. each. Bank Stock re mained unchanged. The following are the closing prices :—For cash—Three per Cents., 80f. 25c. ; Four-and-a-Half per Cents, 103 f. 25c. For the Ac count—Three per Cents., 80f. 45c. ' • Four-and-a- Half per Cents., 103 f. 45c. ; Bank Stock, 2,735. In the Railway Share Market, with the exception of Western of France and Paris and Rouen, the former of which advanced 10f., and the latter 5f., all the leading lines declined in value, and closed heavily. Last quotations : Northern, 905 f. ; Orleans, 1,048 f. ; Paris and Strasbourg, 850 f. 25e.; Paris and Lyons, 947 f. 50c ; Paris and Rouen, 1,062 f. 50c. ; Lyons to the Mediterranean, 807 f: 50e. ; Western of France, 7 65 f. ; Rouen and avre, 513 f. Credit Foncier advanced 17f., and closed at 919 f. ; and Credit Mobilier declined llf., closing at 930 f. SPAIN. The Spanish Senate on the 6th was occupied with the report of the committee on the railway question. Although the report was not opposed, a good deal of warm discussion took place relative to recent concessions of lines. In the course of it, the Marquis del Duero declared that some of the con cessions bad been obtained by extra-legal influence. The President of the Council energetically pro tested against any supposition derogatory to the dignity of the Government, and declared that the Government had never recognised any other in fluence than that of the Crown. In the Chamber of Deputies, the Count de Reus made a vigorous attack on the conduct of different Ministries in elections, especially of that of M. Bravo Murillo, and he even intimated that the Progressist party entertained some intention of proposing the im peachment of the latter. On the 7th, the discus sion of election matters was resumed by the Cham ber, and it was expected that it would become very animated. The Government was represented to be very much annoyed at the spirit manifested both in the Senate and the Chamber. Queen Christina and her family had left for Aranjuez. The following has been received from Madrid by express, dated the Bth :—" The President of the Council this day communicated to the Chamber of Deputies a royal decree suspending the sittings of the Cortes for the session. This measure has been caused by the stormy character of the debates in the last sitting of the Senate. There is a talk of a modification of the Cabinet, and of its being recon structed with Count de Alcoy, M. Llorente, and M. Benavides. The position of things seems a difficult one." The Morning Post, in a third edition, by sub marine telegraph, publishes the following : RESIGNATION OF THE SPANISH CABINET, MADRID, SATURDAY.—The Ministry have pre sented their resignations to the Queen, who is to decide whether she accepts it in 24 hours. GERMANY. Madame de Rothschild, wife of Baron Charles Meyer de Rothschild, died at Frankfort on the 9th, aged 53 years. The Government of Brunswick has just adopted new regulations for public gratuitous education. The State will make grants to the communes, and will give pensions to the widows of teachers. A letter from Berlin announces that, in conse quence of the renewal of the Zollverein, negotia tions will be shortly opened with France by the Prussian Government in order to regulate the na vigation dues on the Rhine, and -to change into a definitive treaty the provisional arrangement of the Ist October, 1851. We learn from Berlin, under date of the 9th, that a journal called The People's Gazette had been started to replace The Gazette of Primary Electors; but the first number of this new journal has been seized by the police. The Prussian Ambassador at the Court of Vienna —Count d'Arnim, has received the Grand Cross of the Order of Leopold, as a reward for his efforts in restoring good intelligence between Austria and Prussia. A Vienna letter of the Bth, states that there is great stagnation of trade there, that three large manufactories have been closed, and that an im mense number of workmen are without employ ment. TURKEY. Letters have arrived from Constantinople via Trieste, to the 23th ult., three days later than those received yesterday. The Russian Ambassador had not presented his projected convention ; and all that was new in political affairs was, that the Sultan had signified to his Ministers his pleasure that he should be kept daily acquainted with the progress of all pending affairs, especially of diplo matic negotiations—and for that purpose Rifaat Pacha, Minister of Foreign Affairs, had received authorisation to go to the palace as often as he should think fit. This resolution was said to have been caused by the pretensions of Russia, and it is represented to have produced a good effect. Amongst the rumours that were current was one that the dispatches carried out by the English frigate the Tiger, for the English Embassy, were of great interest, and most reassuring for the Porte. The affair of the Bank had been defi nitively settled. An Imperial fiiman authorising the creation of the Bank, was promulgated on the 26th. Intrigues, it is said, were employed to prevent the Sultan from signing it. The re presentative of the English firm of Stanley and Co., who managed the matter, and had left for London, in order to send the portion of capital it had stipulated to supply ; and during his absence, which was expected to be a month or six weeks, the administration was to be organised, so that operations would be commenced on his arrival. The founders of the new Bank, who were ten in number, had been increased to twelve, namely— Messrs. Mi ran D uz, Abraham Alaverdi, Boghoo Duz, Ovanes Thinghir, Derair, Bedros laglisian, J. B. Belisikdji, Maksout, Armenian bankers : Psichari, a Greek ; Hanson, an Englishman ; David Glavany, a Frenchman ; and Zarifi, a Russian. It was b e li eved that M. Miran Duz would be nominated director of the Bank, but under the control of a board, consisting of the founders, and of a certain number of members nominated by the shareholders. It is said that the statutes provide fully for the proper manage ment of the Bank, and for the interests of the shareholders. Amongst the measures employed to prevent the establishment of the Bank was, it is alleged, the offer of a loan by Russia, without con dition; but the Sultan considered it too favour able to be accepted. The Patrie says :—" A recent dispatch from the Levant gives some fresh details which have not yet been mentioned. On the 27th ult. there was in the port of Constantinople an English war -steamer of 450-horse power ; three Russian dispatch vessels, and the French steam-frigate the Chaptal. The Turkish squadron was at anchor at the Golden. Horn, and they appeared to be making arrange ments for a start in a few days. The news of the approaching arrival of M. de Lacour, the new French Ambassador, was current in the city, and had produced an excellent effect, and the news in circulation in the best informed circles was of a very tranquillising character. Another dispatch from Egypt announces that two Turkish vessels of war, a sailing frigate of 60 guns, and a brig of 16 guns, were at anchor off Alexandretta." Tho Breslau Gazette has the following from Odessa, dated the 25th ult. :—" The rumours of war have not ceased. The armaments continue actively, and by the Ist of April all the trop ps will be ready to march. Armamentsth are also going on on in Great Russia, andthe col convey ya tthheeretarroeopseightot steamers in re a di ness to Bertsch." A letter from Damascus of the 10th ult., in the Breslau , Gazette, states that three of r tribes of Ma uran have solicited the intervention nishinro.ance in their application to be fr ee d from fur rirriliTutrstioshn payment of annual tribute of 2o: piastres. The Seraskier, Mahomed Pacha, has b , been recalled to Constantinople, and is replaced by been Dacha. RAILWAY TRAFFIC _RETURNS. — LONDON, BRIGHTON, AND SOUTH COAST RAILWAY.

An enlisted Navy. —By enlisting men and boys from the interior of the country, between 14 and 21 years of age, and men who may previously have been at sea, up to 26 years of age, first for a period of 12 years, and a second period of 10 years, the personnel of the navy would be kept up to the annual rate, with the same facility as that of the army. Commodious line of-battle ships, no longer fit for sea, but still efficient for this purpose, might be moored to wharves, and com fortably fitted as barracks for the recruits, where they would pass through a course of great gun and small arm drill, and they should be permitted to pass to and from them, when not required for duty, in the same way that troops are permitted to pass in and out of barracks. When a ship from a foreign sta tion is dismantled, her crew should be turned over to these barracks, allowed a reasonable furlough, and then would be ready to take their turn to embark in any ship commissioned for service. While in these barrack-ships the men should pay for their rations in the same way as troops pay for theirs, so as to render it same advantage to embark in a ship commissioned for service. 3. Alteration in the Payment of Wages.—lt would conduce much to the benefit of the service, and satisfac tion of the men, if when in harbour they were regularly paid twice a month by the lieutenants of divisions ; and if on arrival at the end of any passage they were paid the full sum that may have accrued in the interval, and also if they were permitted to allot the whole, instead of a portion of the sum due to them, to their families. After 22 years service they should be entitled to a fixed pension, unless forfeited by sentence of a court-martial ; and for every good-conduct badge they might be pos sessed of on discharge, one penny a day extra. It is better to anticipate discontent and remove cause thereof before effect is exhibited. To this end marines serving on board ship s h ou ld have their rations free. On board ship the marine looks round him, his shipmates of every other class, even his own officers, receive their rations free, while he pays for his. He knows that if his fellow-soldiers of the line were embarked to serve as marines, they would receive their rations free. Ever loyal in times of mutiny and danger, ever bravo when his services are required against the foe, on the ocean or on the land, why should not his advantages be equal in this respect to the soldiers of the army and the sailors of the navy. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE of YESTERDA Y. PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 12. COURT-MARTIAL. A Court - martial —comprising Captain H. D. Chads, C. 8.. of her Majesty's ship Excellent, President; Captain H. B.

Notice is hereby given, that his Royal Highness Prince Albert will, by the desire of her Majesty, hold Levees at St. James's•Palace, on behalf of her Majesty, on the fol lowing days, at two o'clock Wednesday, the 20th instant. Wednesday, the 27th instant. It is her Majesty's pleasure that presentations to his Royal Highness at those Levees shall be considered equi valent to presentation to the Queen. Addresses to the Queen may either be forwarded to her Majesty through the Secretary of State for the Home De partment, or may be reserved until her Majesty shall hold a Levee. morning - onboard the flag-ship Victory, in this harbour, to try Mr. Francis Rhodes Hartwell, Mate, R.N., of the steam-frigate Vulcan, for breach of discipline in refusing to obey orders on the 31st day of December last, at sea. Commander Von Donop, of the Vulcan, prosecuted for the Admiralty. It appeared by the evidence of Mr. John Trevenen, Se cond Lieutenant of the Vulcan, that on the afternoon of -the day named in the charge he was officer of the watch, and Mr. Hartwell was mate of the watch. At about a quarter past 4 the commander called him (witness), and, after asking him what steps he bad taken to get relieved, called Mr. Martwell, and told him it was the duty of the mate of the watch to call the officer of the next watch himself. Mr. Hartwell replied, the officer of the next watch was a midshipman. He was then called on the poop by the commander (prosecutor), and ordered to call the officer of the next watch, whoever and what ever ho might be. Prisoner replied he would be very happy to call a senior officer, but begged to decline calling a junior. The First Lieutenant was then called on the poop, and the same dialogue was repeated. Pri soner was then put under arrest. This witness's testimony was corroborated by the First Lieutenant, but both officers said the prisoner had always done his duty to their satisfaction ; also that it was customary for the corporal of marines to call the officer of the next watch. This being the case against the prisoner, he solicited a quarter of an hour to prepare his defence, at the expiration of which time his " friend," Mr. James Hoskins, solicitor, of Gosport, put in an eloq uen t an d e l a b ora t e appeal on his behalf, which embodied that, notwithstanding the utmost efforts of the prisoner to give satisfaction by discharging his duties faithfully and with propriety to his officers, Com mander Von Donop would not be satisfied, and endeavoured to degrade him in the eyes of his brother officers, as he considered, in the instance contained in the charge; that it had been proved his conduct to the commander was not disrespectful—he only objected to calling an inferior officer ; that he hoped the Court would take into considera tion his having been already three months under arrest; that he was entirely depindent on the naval service for support ; and hoped the sentence of the Court would not blight those prospects, but enable him to continue the career he had commenced. The Court, after due delibera tion, decided that the charge had been fully proved, but, under the peculiar circumstances of the case, they only adjudged the prisoner to be dismissed from her Majesty's ship Vulcan, and not to be eligible for promotion for one year.

The same Court then proceeded to try George, alias Joseph, Child, seaman, for desertion from her Majesty's ship Agamemnon. Captain Sir Thomas Maitland prose anted. It appeared the prisoner had only been on board the ship two months, and having been granted leave, took the opportunity at its expiration (on the 16th of January last) to desert. He ultimately gave himself up as a de serter. In consequence of this and the short time he had been in her Majesty's service, coupled with his youth, the Court only awarded him three months' imprisonment in the county gaol of Winchester. Odin, 16, paddle, Captain... Francis Scott, left Spithead at . supset last eveniog, on A.orhisa!to the westward, in con , sequence of the sickness on liearcl. Duke of Wellington, 131, Captain Henry Byam Martin, got under weigh this'inorning at noon, and steamed about to try her expansion gear ; after which she came into har bour at 2 p.m., and took up moorings opposite the shears jetty. The interest created to sae this noble ship come into harbour was nearly equal to that of yesterday. The people rushed in crowds on the platform, and every available po sition where they could get a sight. She steamed into harbour most majestically against the first of the ebb. She will now receive her armament, and complete for sea. The Basilisk, 6, paddle, Commander the Hon. F. Eger ton, hauled into the angle dock this morning to examine her copper ; she will be dry to-morrow. The Vulcan, 6, iron screw-steam troop-ship, Commander Von Donop.—We had an opportunity of closely inspecting the bottom of this ship, and do not hesitate to pronounce it in excellent order, considering the length of time she has been afloat, and having had Hay's composition on for ten months. There were a few duck barnacles on the after part of her run, within six feet of the false stern-post, but when brushed off showbd that the iron was not affected ; her bilge was moat perfect, and as fine as possible. The three streaks below the water-line at the time of her being light showed a little rust, and this is the worst that can be said of her. She was built by contract at Mr. Mare's es tablishment at Blackwa El. PLYMOUTH, APRIL 12. Her Majesty's screw steam-ship Sanspareil, 81, Captain. Sidney C.

LANG, MASTER-SHIPWRIGHT. —Mr. Oliver Lang, master-shipwright at Woolwich Dockyard, who was quite well and cheerful and on board the Royal Albert screw steam-ship and Terrible steam frigate on Monday afternoon, inspecting the progress of those vessels, died shortly before 1 o'clock on Tuesday morning. Mrs. Lang observed at about 12 o'clock at night thather husband breathed heavily, and sent for Dr. Browning surgeon of the yard, but before he arrived, Mr. Lang had almost ceased to exist, and died in a few minutes after wards. The deceased served his apprenticeship at Devon port Dockyard, and when he had completed his time was placed over the workmen employed in constructing the tele graphs used during the war along the coasts of this coun try. He was subsequently oversaer of the shipwrights employed in building a 74-gun ship, and on his return to Devonport Dockyard was appointed quarterman in charge of a company of shipwrights, and was shortly after removed to Deptford as foreman of the shipwrights at that yard. From Deptford he returned to Devonport on being ap pointed assistant to the master shipwright there. From De vonport he was removed to Somerset-house, where he offi ciated as assistant-surveyor to the Navy Board. In 1823 he was promoted to be master-shipwright, and appointed to Sheerness Dockyard, where he remained three years, until removed, on the 22d of July, 1826, to Woolwich. Mr. Lang was 75 years of age, 27 of which he served as master-shipwright at Woolwich, and his loss will be se verely felt by the poor, to whom he was a great, although unostentatious, friend. He was a great favourite with George IV., and so pleased that Monarch when superin tending some works at Virginia-water that his Majesty offered to knight him, but Mr. Lang respectfully declined the honour. He was also a great favourite of William IV., and received numerous presents from the Emperor of Russia, the King of Prussia, and the King of Denmark. Mr. Lang introduced a great number of improvements into the construction of ships and steamers, and the strength of vessels of his construction is evident to all who have in spected the Royal Albert, 131, screw steam-ship, and the Terrible steam-frigate, both at present at Woolwich, the former nearly ready for launching. Mr. Lang was the first to design a steam-vessel for the Royal Navy, and the Comet paddle-wheel steam-vessel, of 80-horse power, built under his superintendence at Deptford, is still in the ser vice, and employed on the west coast of Scotland in pro tecting the fisheries. The morning train brought down a large accession of company, and the assemblage on the heath was much in creased by the usual muster of market folk and peasantry from the surrounding villages. The ring was not crowded, and its enlargement enabled the betting brotherhood to pursue their " calling" without inconvenience or interrup tion. The card contained six events. Th 3 principal race, the Newmarket Handicap, terminated the proceedings. It was won by Talfourd, who only an hour before had been beaten by a head for the Twentieth Riddlesworih Stakes by Diomedia. He was not advanced to a prominent posi tion in the betting on the Handicap until after his defeat, when at the last moment he was very spiritedly supported by his party. He is the property of Messrs. Bell and Knowles, and was included among the animals lately pur chased by 'them of Lord Ribblesdale. The weather was very fine, but the keeness of the air was a sharp admonition to " keep moving." BETTING AFTER THE RACES.—Six O'CLOCK.

SlR,—One of the questions that most attract the at tention of the public at this time is the method in which the personnel of the Royal Navy shall be obtained, suffi cient in numbers, and suitable in quality, to meet the exigencies and requirements of the state. To obtain this desirable result three things are necessary, viz. :- 1. An alteration in the naval code. 2. An enlisted navy. 3. An alteration in the system of paying wages. 1. The naval code in use at the present _date was framed in the comparatively barbarous days of George II.; and it is high time that its provisions should be altered to such as are more consonant with the feelings and ideas of the nation in the present era. "A Na val Officer " has re-suggested through the medium of the columns of your influential paper, the in troduction of ship courts-martial, which will ne cessarily involve the re-construction of the present Mutiny Act. This opportunity shoull be taken , to introduce into the naval code the three descriptions of courts martial that have worked so well in the army, under the designation of general, squadron, and ship courts-martial. General courts-martial should be convened under the authority of a warrant from the Commissioners of the Admiralty, and should be composed of no less than 13 officers of the commissioned ranks—viz., flag officers, captains, commanders, lieutenants, masters, mates, and second masters of the navy, and field officers, captains, and subalterns of the marines. The president never to be under the degree•of commander in the navy, or, field officer in the marines ; the officers of the navy and ma rines taking their seats according to the dates of their corresponding commissions. On occasions when ma rines are tried, the president or majority of the members should be from the corps. This court should take cogni sance of grave offences laid down by the acts of Parlia ment, and should have a prosecutor and officiating judge acivocate Squadron courts-martial should be convened under authority of a warrant from the commanders in chief of stations, or flag officers of squadrons, and should be composed of no less than seven officers. The president, except under peculiar circumstances, not under the de gree of commander in the navy, or field officer in the marines. This court to take cognisance of crimes of a certain degree laid down by articles of war. Ships courts-martial should be convened by order of the captain or commanding officer of any ship, and should be composed of no less than five officers, except under peculiar circumstances, when three may be sufficient. The president not under the degree of lieutenant or master in the navy, or captain in the mailnes. This court should take cognisance of minor offences laid down by articles of war. All sentences should be submitted to the convening authority for con- MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS.

It is said that there is every probability of Poole recovering the whole amount,—Zinobletire ChrOniCk. ADMIRALTY -APRIL 8.

SUGAR.—To-day West India sugar was not offered under the rates of Friday; but there was only a limited demai,d from grocers or refiners, and supply is evidently on the in crease. At auction 180 his tierces Barbadoes went at prices on a par with those of Friday ; fine yellow selling at 395, mid to good 35s to 37s Gd, low 3-is to 34s Gd, and brown 32s to 33s 6d per cwt. Total operations were only 390 hhds, &c. REFINED.—To-day refined sugar was purchased with re luctance for home consumption ; brown lumps are 45s 6d, to 46s 6d, and low to fine grocery 46s to 48s 6d per cwt. Crushed sugar in good demand for export at previous rates. MAuniTrus.---This afternoon a greater demand exi3tea for Mauritius Sugar, and full rates were obtained. In auction 12,600 bags were nearly all disposed of ; low to mid yellow at 34s to 35s Gd, good to fine 36s to 37s 6d ; fine brown 33s Gd to 345, good 32s 6d to 335, refining from 33s to 36s 6d, and mid to good grainy yellow at 36s to 38s per cwt. EAST INDIA.—This. afternoon there was no public sale of Bengal, but privately several parcels of white Benares were sold at last week's rates. Soft Madras is not much wanted, and prices rather declined...at the public sales. Of 3,300 bags not above one-half sold: brown at 27s 6d to 295, and yellow 29s to 31s Gd for ord to good. • FOREIGN.—Since Saturday the amount of business con cluded in duty paid parcels of Foreign Sugar has been small. Floating cargoes, however, met with more atten tion for the continental markets: two of yellow Havannah have been sold at 23s for number 12, and one brown Pariaba at 19s 6d, free of average. There has been no public sale. COFFEE.—To-day there was no public sale of any sort of Coffee, and with the exception of Mocha few parcels are declared. Opinion is yet unfavorable towards Native Ceylon, and rates rather incline downwards ; small sales made privately of new import at 47s 6d. to 48s, old 47s ; and about 500 b ags very l ow ; old import at 45s 6d. The currency is firm for Plantation, with a good. home trade demand ; but shippers are not much inclined to operate. Mocha is neglected, and rates are on the decline. In other sorts of Coffee little is doing, and a decline is expected. CHICORY. —There is no decided reduction stocks hero being held by few parties; but demand is evidently on the decrease. Prices for root rule for York at 141. to 161., Guernsey 131. lOs to 161., and Foreign, duty paid, at 311. to 321. per ton. TEA.—At present low to good ord Congou is not much required, still the market is firm at 104 d to lOid per lb. for sound, with a limited supply. Other sorts fully support previous terms, and there is a good demand from home dealers ; the quantity on offer is not larger. Prices for ra ther blackish leaf to blackish leaf rule at lld to is 9d, and choice is 10d. to 2s 2d. The previous advance is well maintained for green, and operations continue to import ance, whilst the quantity at market is less than previously, especially of good to fine. To-day there was not much passing privately in Tea, still the confidence of holders is unshaken. At public sale 120 pkgs fine green sold at stiff rates. RICE.—To-day the market for East India rice presented a dull aspect. At auction 2,703 bags Bengal were taken in at lOs to lOs Oct for mid to good mid white, and ord at 10s. Of Madras 2,407 bags sold at 3c per cwt decline ; low pinkey at 8s 6d, mid 8s 6d, mid 8s 6d to 9s, and good 9s to 9s 6d. COCHINEAL.—To-day Cochineal again met with much attention, and realised full terms. At auction 113 bags Honduras sold at 4s to 4s 6d for low to very good silvers, and pasty at 3s 6d per lb. INDIGO.—At present there is not much demand for East India either for shipping or home consumption, yet mer chants are firm, and will not sell, excepting at an advance on last quarterly sale's rates of 2d to 3d per lb. Spanish is held firmly; at present demand is limited ; Guatimala, Flores at 5s id to 6s, Sobres 4s 5d to 55 7d, Cortes 3s to 4s 4d, and Caraccas 3s 2d to 5s 10(1 per lb. LAC DYE.--Supply exceeds demand, nd prices are on the decline for lower sorts ; at present there is no alteration for good or fine. The currency for DT is 2s ld to 2s 2d, B Mirzapore is 11d, other factory marks is to 2s 3d, and low to fine Native 2,4 d to 10,1 per lb. TALLOW.—For Russian here there is a firm market, with a good demand for consumption, and 45s 3d to 45s 6d per cwt. is the value of fine yellow candle. A large business has been concluded for delivery in last three months of the year at 45s 6d to 45s 9d, and the market has a firm aspect. Of home melted production is still decreasing, and the currency is higher ruling at 46s cash. Other sorts of tallow brought an advance. OILS.—In Seal purchases have been immaterial, with sellers of pale at 341. to 341. 10s. In Cod there is yet little doing, and 331. 10s the nearest value. Southern is held for 351. to 361. lOs for good to fine, and low to mid 321. 10s to 341, yet little is doing. The reluctance to operate in Linseed Oil continues, and prices keep on the decline, production being large. Gallipoli at 691. 10s to 71/, and other sorts 65/. to 681. 103. Cochin at 40s to 41s. In Palm many contracts have been entered into, and 32s to 33s 6d paid for middling to fine. Lard Oil offering at 60s to 61s, and with few buyers. To-day Linseed Oil met with a brisker demand at 27s Oct to 28s on the spot, and at 23s 6d to 29s for forward delivery. SHIPP I-VG INTELLIGENCE. NOTICE TO MARINERS.

Hi s brothe r was with ' him at the time of his death, which took place in the Manchester Royal Infirmary On S unday. There is no truth in the sto! y given some of the morning papers that Mr. Carrata had laid his damages against the company at 20,0001. ; in fact no claim whatever has been made. Mr. Robert Fitton, of Middl eton H a l l, w h o was remove d f rom th e infirmary to his own home on the day after the accident has b een found to have been more injured than was at first supposed, and one of his legs has had to be ampu tated.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Fills fo:. the cure of Ulcers and Cutaneous Diseases.—The daugh ter of Mrs. Farlow, town carrier, rei- - :iding in Maiden - lane, Covent- gar d en , was afflicted for six years with ulcers on the right arm, arid during that period she had the best medical advice that coal be procured, but without deriving any beneficial result whatever. Her health suffered and her constitution became so impaired that no hopes were entertained of a recovery. As a tai-t resource, however, the mother tried Holloway's Oint ment and Pills, and. these unparalleled medicines in 'a short time completely cured the child and renovated lit r constitution, so that she now enjoys the best of health.
