PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 4. DUKE OF WELLINGTON, 131, SCREW LINE-OF-BATTLE SHlP.—This morning, at eleven, Rear-Admiral Superin tendent Fanshaw (Commander-in-Chief, pro tem.), ac companied by Captain Henry Byam Martin, C. 8., visited the above noble ship ; and at 11.15 Captain Mar tin hoisted his pendant on board the largest man-of-war in the world. She is to have a complement of 1,100 men and officers. The ship is masted, and a large body of dockyard riggers, assisted by a strong force of seamen and marines from the Neptune, ordinary guard-ship, com menced rigging her yesterday. The machinery depart ment of the vessel stands thus :—Her cylinders, bed plates, valves, and air-pumps are already in the vessel, and in their places ; the boilers are not in, but they will be ready by the time the vessel returns to the steam basin. The shafting and driving gear are nearly com pleted, and, with the great strength put upon her by the energetic exertions of the steam-factory department, under Mr. Murray. we have no doubt she will be ready for a steam trial in the beggining of April. Prince Regent, 90, flag of Rear-Admiral Corry, Cap tain Hutton, dame into harbour at 10 a.m., in tow of the Bull-dog, 6, Commander George H. Gardner, of the Blenheim, and the Echo, steam-tug, lashed to her port side. As soon as she got over the bar, the Bull-dog cast off, and left the Prince Regent to the Echo, and the assistance of her jib, spanker, and foretopmast-staysail. She was placed alongside th e Blake, receiving hulk. The Bull-dog went up the harbour, and laid herself broadside on with the Powerful. Fairy, yacht, Master Commander D. Welsh, steam tender to the Victoria and Albert, went out of harbour at 11.30 to prove her machinery. To-morrow she makes trial of the new propeller patented by Griffiths. Gorgon, 6, paddle-wheel steam-sloop, has hauled over to the south side of the steam-basin to receive her boilers. Growler, 6, paddle-wheel steam-sloop, has hauled over from the east to the west landing of the steam-basin to receive her repairs from the steam-factory. Conflict, 8, screw-steam-sloop, has set up her main rigging, and is getting her topmasts on end, and other wise progressing. Leopard, 16, steam-frigate, Captain George Giffard, is all ready for service, and is expected to go out of har bour to-morrow. Princess Royal, 90, screw line-of-battle ship, has as many shipwrights and caulkers as can possibly work on her, and every dispatch is being made towards her com pletion. The Banshee, steam-packet, Lieutenant-Commander Hosken, has been taken into No. 7 dock. The steam-transport, Rhadamanthus, Master-Corn manding Belarn, sailed yesterday with stores for Ply mouth, as did also the store-ship Diligence. WOOLWICH, FEB. 4 APPOINTMENTS. Surgeon Robert Willcox (1851), from the Coast Guar( service, to the Spitfire, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, sta. tioned at Malta. Master's-Assistant H. C. Sedmond, to the Desperate screw steam-sloop, at Plymouth. Commander Hon. George H. Douglas, of the Cruiser steam-sloop, is quite convalescent, and will join that vessel at Portsmouth in about eight or ten days from the present time. It is expected she will proceed for service on the Mediterranean station. The pay clerks from the Admiralty went down to Sheerness to pay the crew of the Agamemnon, 90, that screw steam-ship being now ready for sea. PLY3IOI7TH, FEB. 3. Major-General Sir Harry Smith arrived by special train last evening, and has taken on himself the com mand-in-chief of the western district. Admiral Sir John A. Ommanney and Commodore Superintendent Seymour paid an official visit to the general this morning at Mores head's Hotel. We regret to state that the sloop Ocean, from Shore ham, bound to Plymouth, laden with wheat, was, last evening, lost on the breakwater. She came in about seven o'clock, it being very dark, and the master, being a stranger to the port, thought the light to be on the east end instead of the west end of the breakwater ; consequently he run directly on it, and there being a heavy swell she was forced thereon. Fortunately, she was discovered by the men at the lighthouse, who communicated with the Tovy, harbour master's yacht, and by their assistance the crew, two men and a boy, were saved, but the vessel has become a total wreck. The smack is what is usually termed a billyboy, hailing from Boston, and it appears nearly all of her belongs to the master, whose name is Gostello, and she is not in sured. CHATHAM, FEB. 4. The Castor, 36, Commodore Christopher Wyvill, ar rived here this morning, on her return from the Cape of Good Hope, where she has been stationed as flag-ship for upwards of three years, having been commissioned at this port for that service on May 7, 1849. The Castor was towed up the Medway by two steamers from Sheerness, and immediately on her arrival, Commodore Wyvill landed in his gig, and visited Captain-Superintendent Peter Richards, C.B. The Commodore, accompanied by Captain R. B. Watson, C. 8., then went over a part of the dockyard to witness the Cressy, 80, the Euryalus, 50, the Hood, 80, the Irresistible, 80, the Majestic, 80, the Orion, 80, the Severn, 50, making a total of five 80-gun ships of large tonnage, and two 50-gun frigates building in this dockyard, and all being prepared for screw steam-ships, and the Royal George, 120, also in dock for the purpose of being converted into a screw steam guard-ship. The Imperieuse, 50, screw steam-frigate, Capt. Rundle Burges Watson, C. 8., is progressing very fast in her equip ment. The topsail and lower yards are across, and one bending suit of sails ready, and the salt provisions stowed away, and a great portion of the sea stores on board. The gun gear is all ready for the guns, and some very good men have been picked up, and amongst them seve ral excellent seamen, recently paid off from the Phaeton, 50, at Sheerness. Several are also expected to join from the Castor, on that vessel being paid off at this port on Mon day, the 14th inst. The Imperieuse has now about 380 on her books, but amongst that number there are a few " loose fish," which the captain will get rid of as soon as possible, as they were not selected by himself or any of his officers, but sent from some of the rendezvous about town, and quite worthless, and, as the good sailors say, they l " find nothing t oo h eavy to lift with their light fingers. The frigate appears to the eye to be power fully masted, and her yards are large, but as all the officers and the men who will be retained to serve in this fi n e screw steam-ship consider themselves in the working class, they are delighted with the rig and noble appearance of the Imperi euse, and anticipate, with the greatest satisfaction, the manner in which they will handle and. wor ock k her when they ge t h er to sea. Shortly y afto'cl to-da, Commodore Wyvill, accompa nied by Captain Watson, went on board the Hussar, receiving ship, where the officers and crew of the Im perieuse are accommodated while the fittings of the frigate are being completed by the shipw r i g h ts. his A general muster took place in the presence o f t h e Com modore, and the whole of the crew passed singly for inspection. The surgeon and assistant-surgeon have a comparatively sinecure office at present, there being very few on the sick-list, and the whole appeara healthy an d muscular body of men, with some very active boys. The Royal Marines are all a remarkably fine body of men. The Imperieuse is 2,350 tons, or within, or only about from 300 or 400 tons less than several of the 120-gan ships of former days. The Wildfire, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, arrived in the afternoon from Sheerness. TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING HERALD. Her Majenty's Ship Earracouta, Sheerness, Feb. 3.

To-day there was a of tea shows to opera i n tea at the public sales, still reluctance merchants - score 119 i, inc lined to accep t lower terms. , Of Tom, one of the witnesses, upon whose information that the first mate had struck Doyle with a piece of wood and a rope, and that Doyle was disabled by that violent treatment, never spoke afterwards, and died next morn ing, the warrant was granted, was put in the box. The Rev. Mr. Ellis attended as interpreter, and the exami nation, which varied in no respect from the statement made upon the application for the warrant, was neces sarily tedious and unimportant. The manner of the witness certainly seemed to cause a general belief in the court that he really stated what he considered to be facts. On his cross-examination, Tom said : I was in the rigging when Doyle fell on the deck, and I was going up to the maintop when the prisoner beat him with the rope. We were all going up at the fime. The captain of the vessel was astern when the pi soner beat the man with the rope, and did not see him lo so. The captain did not know of the striking of Doyle with the rope after he fell. I know Mr. Cumming, the second mate. He was up with us in the rigging when Doyle fell on the deck, and when the prisoner beat him with the rope. We were aloft at the time of the beating with the rope, reef ing at the top. I had not been aloft before the prisoner beat Doyle with the wood. I was on one side, and Mr. Loftus, the third mate, was on the same side, and Mr. Cumming was on the other side. I was the last man up the rigging before Doyle. I saw the prisoner take the wood with which he beat Doyle from the upper deck, and I saw him take the rope from the side of the ship, where it lay coiled up.. I saw the prisoner come down the rigging after the beating had taken place. I do not recollect Doyle being about a month before, nor do I recollect his being missed from duty, or being found between the decks apparently dead. Doyle complained of having a pain in one foot, otherwise Ido not know that he was ill. He was much the same as the rest of us as to being dirty or clean. [Some laughter was caused by the difficulty which the interpreter found in this passage of the evidence, there being no word in the language of the Sandwich Isles to express the meaning of either filth or its contrast.] We all slept down below. We did not turn out Doyle from the place in which we slept. I did not beat Doyle, for he was a great man, and I had never seen any of the others beat him. We never took Doyle's food. He would sometimes give me some food, or we would give food to one another. The captain did not put Doyle by himself to eat his food. The other men did not steal his food. I have been in prison in my own country once. It was for riding on a horse—not for stealing a horse. The Lord Mayor said that as it would be necessary to pursue the investigation, and a considerable time must still be occupied in the investigation, he would adjourn the case. Mr. Mullens said he had no objection upon the part of the prisoner, but he took that opportunity of declaring that more gross misrepresentations could not have been made than had been made by those who accused his client. The facts would be found to be, and there was no foundation whatever for the charge ; that the de ceased was a man of such filthy and lazy habits that his own countrymen could not endure him, and had refused to let him mesa with or sleep among them ; and he had been found between decks after having gorged himself with food, as it was believed, which he had stolen, and upon being ordered up the shrowds with the other men when there was necessity for considerable exertion he refused to do the duty ; that the chief mate had refrained from punishing him for his breach of duty, and merely tied him up for a short time ; and that he came down upon the deck himself, without being treated with the least violence by an one. It was the fact, too, and would be proved, beyond all question, that the com rades of the deceased had refused to carry him down when he was ill upon deck ; and that his illness was pro bably occasioned by his exposure to the weather, from which he suffered, on account of the objection which the rest of the crew entertained to his presence amongst them in the proper place for repose. The prisoner was then remanded, and bail having been accepted for his future appearance, he was permitted to lease the justice-room. - TEA.: There has been a good business doing within the last day or two, at fair prices, chiefly in blackish leaf and medium Pekoe kinds, at is 2d to is sd.

Since the prisoner's last examination, it was thought necessary to take his wife depositions at King's College Hospital ; but she has on all occasions, when questions were put to her, endeavoured to free the prisoner from blame, and refuses to make any statement that can in any way bring the offence home to him. It is now hoped that death will not result from her wounds. The prisoner was again remanded. .-FEB. 3. SOUTHWARK.—Joseph Miles, a bricklayer, was placed at the bar charged with a brutal assault on Ann, his wife. The complainant, with difficulty, ascended the witness box, in consequence of the injuries inflicted on her per son by the prisoner, and a certificate was handed to the magistrate describing that her body was bruised nearly from head to foot. She stated that on the previous evening the prisoner returned home, and in consequence of her not having his supper ready for him the moment he came in, he began to abuse her. She accounted for the delay by telling him that their little girl was longer in fetching the things she required than she ought to have been. This, however, instead of appeasing him, made him more violent, and he began to kick her and to beat her with his fists. She implored for mercy, but instead of listening to her supplications he snatched . up a long piece of wood an d commence d hitti ng h er with it over the head, arms, shoulders, and, in fact, the whole of her body, until she fell on the floor in a state of insensibility. She added that eight years ago she was laid up in the hospital for thirteen weeks owing to the prisoner's vio lence. They had been married sixteen years, and had six children living, and she assisted in their support by selling fruit in the streets. A policeman produced the stick with which the unfor tunate woman had been beaten. It was a very for midable weapon, and had marks of blood upon it in several places. The prisoner said nothing in his defence. Mr. Combe said he should fine the prisoner 51, or commit him for two months, and his wife was or dered to receive 2s. 6d. a week out of the poor-bo until his liberation.

Jefferies and Co., at Pucklechurch. The prime cause of the catastrophe has not yet tran spired, but from the particulars which are known, it would appear that the engineman, whose name is Samuel Bryant, went to the works at an early hour of the morn ing, for the purpose of getting up the steam, preparatory to lowering the miners to their work. Upon the colliers arriving at the mouth of the pit, they could not make the engineman hear, and upon their searching for him in the engine-house, they found him lying dead on the floor, with his head very much mangled, and his person covered with blood. A portion of the framework of the engine had fallen upon him, and in all probability had instantaneously killed him. The deceased, who was a very steady man, and much respected, has left a widow and six children to lament his untimely death. TROTTING MATCH.—An extraordinary trotting match against time took place on Monday, the 24th ult., on the road leading from Shroton to Blandford, by that much admired high-bred entire horse Rector, trotting a distance of five miles in the short space of 15 minutes, carrying 12 stone. The noble animal was ridden by the owner, Mr. J. Crew, of Okeford Fitzpaine, and com pleted the task with perfect ease,-1560tOrne 10147141. LIVERPOOL AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE. s.

One day ho desired his valet-de-chambre to put up the articles of dress and toilet necessary for a short absence from Paris, and to order his carriage for an early hour next morning. At the time indicated, the post-chaise was at the door. He told his wife that he should be absent only a day or two, and stepping into the chaise desired the postillion to drive to Fountainbleau. Hav ingand k arrived his d at Fountainbleau, he repaired to the Hotel de Turenne, w h ere he was we ll known, order e d di nner , sword wouldin his b e h b a ae n k d s i a n i d a n h he o would r stroll two. into the forest , but It was then about four o'clock. He did not return to dinner, nor that night, a circumstance which caused the proprietor of the hotel, who loved and respected him, much alarm, and induced him next morning to acquaint the authorities of the town with the facts. He also apprised some Mends of Wall, officers of the garrison, of his disappearance. A large party in consequence set off for the forest in the direction that Wall had taken, and there dispersed. For a considerable time their search was fruitless, but at length in a remote and un frequented part of the forest they found the dead body of Wall, nearly covered by a drift of fallen leaves. He had been run through the body. His sword lay by his side ; his purse filled with money was in his pocket ; his watch in his fob. The body was removed to the hotel, and thence to Paris. This melancholy affair be came the topic of conversation at court, in the salons, and other assemblies of high life. In one of them a friend of Wall, an Irishman of distinction, repelled the idea that he h a d f allen in a due l . "Wall, he said, was not surpassed as a swordsman ; h e could not have meta nsutpheisrior. He was basely murdered." Next in poste, couched that Wall was a ssass i nate d . It i s f a l se .

A large majority of the grain markets of the United Kingdom likewise appear to have been overdone by supply, and, with a limited demand prices have pointed downwards.
