The boats were then compelled to return to their ships, the captain of the wrecked vessel, who, with a portion of his crew, remained by her, being promised that they would remain by bar all night, and renew their humane efforts in the morning. When morning dawned the mate (Beer), although finding that tt♦e •nly means of saving the lives of those on the wreck was by risking himself and his men, pushed boldly through the surf, when his boat capsized and the second mate and three men were instantaneously engulfed. The mate himself succeeded in passing two oars under his arms, and he was kept afloat two hours and a-half, during which time it was believed on board the bark that be also was lost. When picked up he was in a state of insensibility, from which he was recovered only by the shill displayed by a foreign surgeon who was on board the Donnie Brundit as a passenger. "To such a man as this brave mate," observed Mr. Greaves, "who had not shrunk from the gravest dangers, they could not do less, while presenting him with a silver medal, than also accord to him their heartfelt thanks." But to return to the wreck, from the leeward side of which the captain and the three remaining seamen had in the mean time launched a rudely constructed raft, and having got on to it allowed it to drift from their doomed ship. They were perceived by Captain Whiteway, who gallantly put his vessel forward and succeeded in meeting the raft and saving those four lives. It was for these brave deeds that the Board of Trade had been pleased to grant their silver medals to the captain and his mate, accompanied by an expres sion of their Lordships' sense of their gallant services. *ln the first six months the presentations were—a gold chronometer from the Prestdent - of the United States to Captain Joseph Clarke, and a gold chronometer by the President of the Unit©d States to Captain Finnis ; and in the last six months-601. and a telescope from the Board of Trade to Captain Hodges; a gold chronometer and chain from the President of the United States to Captain Sharp ; a gold medal from the King of Norway tn Captain Graham; and silver medals from the Board of Trade to William Eccles and to Lewis Whiteway and J. C. Beer, the two last being the cases now ander consideration, TSB GAS MONOPOLY QUESTION,. On Saturday the Marylebsne Representative Council were occupied during the principal portion of their sitting in discussing the recent tender o f i the Chartered Gas Company to light th e district n the vicinity of Oxford-street, relinquished by the Equitable Company at Christmas next, and also with the attendance of a deputation from ratepayers appointed by a public meeting, with respect to the recent division of the metropolis into districts by the gas companies. Mr. Tavener having been called to the chair, Mr. GREENWELL (the vestry clerk) stated that he had received a letter from the Secretary of the Chartered Gas Company, in reply to his communi cation, referring their tender, read the previous week, back for explanation. He read the following communication from the Chartered Company : " Chartered Gas Office, Westminster, Nov. 17, 1857. " Sir,—ln reply to your letter, dated yesterday, lam to state that the directors of this company supposed and intended that their tender of the 13th inst. complied with the terms of your advertisement fully, and that illumi nating power was alone contemplated by it. But, a. explanation is sought, I have to say that the directors propoee to use such a burner to each lamp as will give a light equal to 8 sperm candles at the annual charge of 3/. 10s, each, or equal to ten candles at 4/. each, or to twelve candles at 4/. 7s. 6d. per annum, for the choice of the vestry, upon contracts for three years ; and I am to add that the superintendent of the company's works, with _myself, will attend any appointment you may intimate, to answer such questions as may yet arise.— I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, "C. BIIELR, Secretary." Greenwell, Esq., Vestry Clerk, St. vir . E. Marylebone. Mr. GREENWELL stated that Mr. Burls, the secretary, and Mr. Evans, the superintendent, were in attendance to answer any questions which the Board might think proper to put. Mr. Buds and Mr. Evans were called before the Board, and in answer to questions the former said that they were quite willing to give as good a light as the Equitable Company now gave the parish at 3/. 10s. per light. He did not see why the vestry wanted to know how many feet of the gas burned per hour, so that they had as good a light as they had at present. The gas would be: equal to eight candles ; and if the vestry wanted a larger amount than eight-candle gas, the company required pay ment for it in proportion. He had no further in formation to offer. This deputation having retired, Mr. GREENWELL, in answer to a questiou, stated that the Chartered Company had two sets of mains running down Oxford-street, from one of which they supplied the ordinary gas, and from the other Cannel coal gas. Mr. CARR observed that it was not so much how many feet of gas was burned per hour ; it was the illuminating power of the gas to be supplied for which the Chartered Company proposed to charge a high price. He believed that the Cannel co d gas was 6s. per thousand ; but the question was, considering its illuminating power, whether it was not cheaper at that price than the ordinary gas at 4s. 6d. per thousand. Mr. I. BIRD thoughtthe vestry had no alternative but to accept the tender of the Chartered Company, and he therefore moved that it ba accepted. (Hear, and no, no.) The motion hay ins been seconded. Mr. HODGES moved as an amendment Chit the further consideration of the tender of the Char tere t Company should be postponed to that day w el:. As to the letters from the Chartered Company, or from the secretary, they were no explanation at all, and the vestry were in no better condition than they were when the tender was read. The amendment was seconded, and after some observations from Messrs. Freeth, D'lflanger, arid other gentlemen in support, the amendment was carried by a large majority, as was also a further resoln ion to refer the subject to the consideration of the Gas Committee on Wednesday next, to re port thereon at the next meeting. Messrs. Burls and Evans were again called in and informed of the resolution to the committee, and asked if they would attend and afford information to the Gas Committee, to which Mr. Buds replied that he did not think he should be its a position to give mere information to the Gas Committee than he did nAr. Messrs. Carr, Freeth, Nicliolay, and Belton put a variety of questions, and Mr. Belton wished to know whether, as the Chartered Company had thought proper to raise their price for the public lights, they also intended to do so with regard to the lights of the private consumer'? (Oh, oh, and cries of " Committee.") • The deputation from the Chartered Company withdrew, and a deputation from a public meeting of ratepayers, headed by Mr. G. Salmon, were then admitted, to present the resolutions passed at that meeting to the vestry. Mr. Seemoer said he had had the honour tc crowdedpre whomeeting were the o naturally gas co n very a s i n t e o r v a e r o f a tvhearty parish, much alarmed at the attitude assumed by the gas companies, and the feeling was that time only way to eeeure them from monopoly was that the vest- y of Maryle)eone, as their representatives, should either by themselves, or in union with other par i s h e s, erect parochial gas works fo r their su pp l y . (Hear, hear.) The feeling out of doors was, that un less the vestries of the metropolis took some such step, they wenld be speedily bound hand and foot by a monopoly of a most extraordinary character. They believed that the gas companies had entered into an amalgamation contrary to the provisions of their Actsof Parliament; and that, unlessthe vestries either applied to Parliament or took some other deter mined step, they (the gas consumers) would soon become the victims of monopoly. They did not say that Marylebone should stand alone in this movement, but they did think that the only re medy for this monopoly was, that an application to Parliament should be made, if they had not already the power, to construct gasworks and supply gas upon the municipal principle. (Hear.) Mr. Salmon concluded by handing in the resolu tions passed at the public meeting. The Vr...4TES CLERK read the resolutions, which were to the following effect " That in consequence of the combination of the gas companies of this parish, and the western and north western districts of the metropolis, it is expedient that energetic measures be taken to counteract the injurious effects to private consumi•rs and the parish generally. "That a deputation from this meeting be appointed to wait on the vestry, to state the best means for the establishment of parochial gag works, to be enabled to supply the public lights, and the privets consumers thereof. (Signed in behalf of the meeting) " GEORGE SALMON, Chain - net,' Dr. BACHHOEFNER said he should move that uhese resolutions be received and referred to the gas committee. Ho was gratified to find that not only the consumers of Marylebone, but the people of the metropolis, as exhibited by the re cent meeting of delegates, were becoming alive to that question, There was one point which fell from him (Dr. Bachhoffner) at the meeting of the delegates on Wednesday, which he was desirous of correcting, so far as one company was concerned. He stated that the companies were compelling in-coming tenants to pay the arrears of gas of previous tenants before the com panies would give them any light. He grounded his statement on a letter which ho saw in one of the morning papers, but it did not apply to the Imperial Company, as, when they were before Parliament, the vestry of Marylebone procured the insertion of the 15th section, which bore upon this point, and enacted that where a person left his pre mises indebted to the Imperial Gas Company, they should not be permitted to compel the succeeding occupier to pay such debt before laying on the gas, &c. He believed that no other company bad such a clause in the Act of Parliament, and it showed well for the foresight and the vigilance of the then vestry of Marylebone that they procured its inser- TEE INDIA AND CHINA MAILS AND PAS. SENGE RS. SOUTHAMPTON, Nov. 21. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamship Indus, Captain R. W. Evans, arrived here this morning, with the heavy portion of the Calcutta and China mails, in charge of Lieut. Lloyd, RN. Admiralty agent. Her railing dates are :—Alexandria, Nov. 7 ; Malta, 11; and Gibraltar, 16. The Indus had fins weather as far as Gibraltar, and thence to Lisbon thick, with bard squalls, heavy rain, and much thunder and lightning. She made the Needles about 3 o'clock this morning, but the fog was so dense that she could do no more than feel her way slowly, so that she did not get up into dock till 10 a.m. This steamer brings a total of 104 passengers, and on freight 14 packages of specie, value 22,500 dole, gold value 11,6901. sterling, 2,136 bales of silk, 51. cases of shawls, and 114 packages of general merchandise. The following are the names of the saloon passen gers :—Lieut. W. C. Cookson ; Lieut. E. St. John, R.N., on promotion • Mr. J. Jones, master, R.N., on promotion ; Mr. T. Somerville, surgeon, R.N. ; Mr. T. G. Heywood. paymaster, R.N. ; and Dr. Sloss, R.N.

From Madras: Mrs. Broome and Capt. Milbank. From Alexandria Mr. Logan and Dr. Heeler. From Malta : Lieut. Halstead. From Gibraltar : Lieut. Ledson. At Alexandria were H.M.S. ship Tartarus, tks Rus sian screw frigate Balkan, and the Russian brig of war Phelok ties. At Malta were her Majesty's ship Royal Albert (flag ship of Admiral Lyons), Hibernia, Conqueror, Ceutu rion, Princess Royal, Vulture, Wanderer, Vigilant, Boxer, and Harpy. At Gibraltar were her Majesty's ship Curlew. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Ripon with the outward India and China mail of the 4th, ;rim Southampton, arrived at Gibraltar shortly After 11 p.m. on the 9th, and resumed her voyage to Anita and Alexandria at 111.30 on the 10th. The Tagus arrived on the 14th, in 6 days 18 hours from Southamp ton, calling at the intermediate ports. The Dutch brig Cornelius, with a cargo of barley from Trieste, for Valparaiso, west ashore off Punta Mala at 1 p.m. on the 13th inst., but was got off again and towed into Gibraltar Bay the day following by the Earl of Lonadale steam tug. The British steamer Tiber, Captain Wardell, 61- days from Liverpool, with general cargo for Gibraltar, Pa- Immo, Messina, and Trieste, arrived at Gibraltar on the 14th. Exchanges at Gibraltar were quoted as follows on the 14th inst.:—London, 90 days' date, 50,E ; Paris, ditto, 5f 35c ; Marseilles, ditto, 5f 36c; Genoa, ditto, 5f 37c ; Madrid, eight days' sight, 1 die ; Cadiz, ditto, par ; Malaga, ditto, g die ; Seville, ditto, die ; Alicante, ditto, dis ; Valencia, ditto, i dis ; Barcelona, ditto, I die ; Spanish pillared dollars, 4 per cent pm, none—no demand. His Excellency General Don Bias gierrard y Aiceda, appoieted by the Spanish Government second in com mand in auel over the dependencies of the Philippine Islands, embarked on board the Ripon steamer at Gib raltar on the 10th inst., accompanied by his lady and two aides-decamp. Although we have had news via Marseilles up to the same dates as the news brought by the Indus, the pas sengers from Calcutta and Bombay are mucli sought after in order to learn from them, better than it can be ascertained from the Indian journals, the very latest in tellionce that reaches the seaports from the revolted districts, and also the feeling that prevails in tie Govern ment cities respecting the events in the upper provinces. The Indus's passengers describe the excitement prevail ing in Calcutta as much greater at the news of Lucknow being relieved than at that of the capture cf Delhi ; s difference which arose from the fearful apprehensions previously entertained respecting the fate of the besieged in the capital of Oude. The rejoicings, therefore, at Ravelock's and Outraco's victories were excessive, but the passengers represent that these rejoicings were qualed when news was circulated that Havelock had written most urgently for reinforcements, and that it wan found he was so hemmed in th6t he ws a in as dan gerous a predicament as the garrison he had so gallantly rtlieved- He was surrounded, it was said, by 50,000 mutineers. The traitor Malin Singh was his principal assailant. Nana Sahib was, it is asserted, wounded before Lucknow. The urgency of Havelock's demand for reinforcements was so great that the Calcutta Go vernment was hurrying the troops away by a hundred at a time, and there troops had to getup the country in the hest way they could. The difficulty of these troops getting provisions and means of transit is, it appears, very great. Some of the Bombay passengers state that when they stepped on board the mail packet it was rumoured that newehad been received from 'Madras that the Europeans at Lucknow were in a most critical posi tion, and that their retreat was completely cut oft. The blowing away from guns of two mutineers at Bombay had caused the utmost excitement amongst the native troops, and much alarm was still felt in the Bombay presidency. Calcutta was filled with refugees, and ladies who a rr i ve d ou t f rom E urope were obliged to be kept on board ship. There are a few persons from the disturbed districts (principally ladies and children who have lost their hus bands or their fathers) among the passengers by the Indus, but nothing calling for special notice transpired respecting any of them. Mr. Alderman Finnis (the late Lord Mayor of London) and his indefatigable lady were iu attendance, as well as the local authorities, but hap pily no case requiring relief was discovered. The next steamer due here with passengers from India is the Ripon, Captain Dundas, on the 4th proximo. REWARDS FOR GALLANT CONDUCT AT SBA. One of those interesting occurrences which have latterly been of gratifying frequence at the Liver pool Sailors' Home—namely, the presentation, through the Local Marine Board, of rewards to mei chant captains or seamen for gallant conduct at sea, took place on Saturday afternoon. The members of the Local Marine Board who wore present were Mr. S. R. Greaves, in the chair, and Messrs. Tomlinson, George Kendal, John Lockett, and James Smith. The recipients of the distinction were Lewis Whiteway, master, and J. C. Beer, mate, of the bark Dennis Brundit, of Liverpool, who were to be presented with large silver medals, forwarded for that purpose by the Board of Trade, for their gal lantry and intrepidity in rescuing the captain and part of the crew of the ship Walter Mancaster, of Whitehaven, wrecked on the rocks near the port of Chanaral on the 27th June. Capt. Whiteway was not in attendaice, having to meet his owner in the country ; but the mate, Beer, was present and re ceived the medals. Mr. Greaves, in introducing the proceedings o, the day, said there were two duties imposei on the local marine—one the . very unpleasant one of in flicting punishment for what was happily an excep tional offence and a decreasing one, that of miscon duct on the part of masters of the British mercan tile marine ; and the other the always gratifying aad pleasing duty of rewardingmeritorious actions, which be was delighted to say were on the increase. He then referred to the evil of drunkenness con nected with the mercantile marine—a habit which rendered nugatory the most valuable qualifications of a master, as alike affecting the safety of his ship and cargo and the interests of his owners, who at the lead were subject to severe contingencies, but whose risks were great indeed when obliged to intrust their property into the hands of men, who, in foreign seas, by the horrible vice of drunkenness, lost their own self-control, and were consequently in an unfit state to carry a vessel safely eel its destination. While it was their duty to investigate such cases of drunkenness, it was gra fying to be able to report that during the past six months they bad bad no occasion to enter upon an inquiry so painful, while in the previous six months they investigated no less than 10 such cases. On the other hand, the pleasing duty of rewarding mer chant captains had kept pace with the decrease of that which was censurable, for during the past half year six testimonials had been awarded from various Governments, against two I n th e prev i ous s i x mouth..* He (Mr. ( 3, 4 -reeves) did not like to make Peetions when the Board of T r ade a nd others hind s t n i authority awarded medal s feud *thee o in t vid r i s o merles of an honourable nature, but justice com pelled him to state that the case before them i Capt, Whiteway and his mate, Beer, together with the second mate, whose life paid the forfeit of his huma nity, and the whole crew, had displayed an amount of gallant br ave ry whi c h he had never seen sur passed. The ship Walter Mencaeter, of White haven, left the port of Chanaral on the 27th Jun, last, and she was soon after dieceveied On the rocks exposed to a treMeniddus roll of the sea, of which only those who had witnessed the phenomena in the Paciee bcean could form an idea, and which ren dered a wrecked vessel very difficult to 'approach. In this position the Walt rMancaster was perceived by the bark Dennis Brundit, from Liverpool, and a Milian bark, the Helene, commanded bya French man, whose conduct on the occasion was worthy of all praise. These two vessels immediately lowered their boats and endeavoured to reach the wreck, hut they could not get near her on account of the terrible rolling of the sea. From the wreck a boat was laun c h e d conta i n i ng t h e capta i n ' s wife and ten other persons ; but it was speedily swamped, and the capta,ie'a wife' and six of the men were drowned, although . the ma t e, B eer, pus h e d on w i th his b oat at im minent danger.

Christie and James Millard, the one commander and the other first officer of the barque Elizabeth, were placed before Mr. Mansfield, the stipendiary magistrate at Liver pool, charged wish the murder of Francisco Rod riguez, a Spanish seaman. The barque Elizabeth, of that port, has recently arrived from New Calabar, after touching at King ston, where it is said the crew was changed. How ever, the former crew, or some of them, have got 1 o Liverpool, and they allege that the captain, John Anderson Christie, and first mate, James Millard, caused the death, at sea, of Francisco Rodriguez, a Spanish seaman, by brutal and deliberate ill usage. The charge was of so serious a nature, that a preliminary investigation was held at the Sailor's Home on Friday afternoon, at which Mr. Mansfield, the Stipendiary magistrate, was present. The ex amination was conducted with closed doors, but the result was manifest by the immediate apprehen sion of both captain and mate on a charge of murder. Mr. Kehee, one of the inspectors of the detec tive force, stated the case at great length, from which it appears that the Elizabeth sailed from Liverpool on the 20th January last, for New Calabar, under Captain Pickering. After the arrival at New Calabar, some misunderstanning took place between the trading master and Captain Pickering, which ended in Captain Pickering leaving the ship and returning home. When the Elizabeth was nearly loaded, Captain Christie arrived at New Calabar in the ship Faith, and he was shortly afterwards transferred from the Faitk to the Elizabeth. He brought with him three of his old crew, amongst whom was Francisco Rodriguez, the unhappy subject of the outrages. When ho came on board the Elizabeth, it is said, he was robust and healthy, and so continued until he was brutally treated. One evening, about the latter end of September, after they had been 50 or 60 days out, Rodriguez was trimming the binnacle lamp at the cabin door. He accidentally broke one of the glasses, and the captain, hearing the smashing of the glass, came up from his cabin and inquired what was the matter. The steward. explained that the Spaniard had broken his binnacle 1 tmp. The captain seized Rodriguez by the back of the head, threw him down, and than began to kick him all over the body. It is said he kicked him for five minutes, or more, with all his might, at the same time using abusing epithets, and saying, " You worthless scoundrel, I'll murder you ; you shall never live to see Liver pool." After he had kicked him all over his body and head, the captain lifted his foot several times, and stamped his heel with all his force on the Inver part of the unfortunate man's back. Rodriguez cried out for mercy, and crawled forward to the forecastle. He there said to some of the crew that the captain had killed him. He exhibited his body and back, and it is said they were black and blue, and that something like a joint pro jected at the lower pit of his back where the captain had stamped upon him. The poor fel low was unable t o t uru o ut the next mornin. Towards the aft ernoon the captain came out, and, shouting to him, said, You Russian, if you don't turn out, I'll clap a tackle on you and drag you out." Rodriguez struggled to come out of the forecastle, but he was in a very feeble state, and he walked with a limp ; indeed, he could scarcely move at all. There was a lump visible os the right side of his head, where the captain had kicked him ; and his face was disfigured with bruises. He also began to spit blood soon after the ill - us a g e, and t h is continued some time. The second mate gave him some seanot to make rope. At his proper turn he took the wheel as usual, but he complained that he was unable to manage it. Nearly every day from this the captain used a rope's-end to him, often very severely, and all over his body. About a week after this, the chief mate one night came for ward and asked whose look-out it was. Some one replied, " Rodriguez's." The mate called to him, You -- worthless scoundrel, why have you not relieved the look-out ?" The mate seized him by the throat with both hand, throttling him, threw him en his back violently, and kicked him, it is said, as hard as he could, thirteen times. The poor fellow exclaimed, "If you want to kill me, take a hatchet, and cut my head off." The mate then compelled him to go up to the look-out. Rodriguez crawled on his hands and knees to the top of the look-out, but he said h e c ould not see, as the blood was gushing to his eyes every moment. He sat down, but even then he fell down twice. He very often exclaimed that he was dying. Some of the crew were compelled to help him down the ladder into the forecastle, and next morning he was not able to turn out. The captain came as be fore, saying, " You -- lazy scoundrel, if you don't come up, I'll clap a tackle upon you and drag you up." Rodriguez crawled out, assisting himself by whatever he could lay his hands on, and he sat down on some spars on the deck. He never took the wheel after this, but he tried some plaiing. A few days after this the captain again kicked him on the face. Tess last scene of violence is represented as having occurred about seven days after the mate's attack. Rodriguez was on the quarter-deck for the purpose of hearing the lead. As he could not walk without assistance, he leaned on the poop for support. The ca pt a i n a ddressed him, saying, "You lazy dog, do you come upon the quarter-deck to act the sick man ? Move quicker, or I'll hurry you along." The poor fellow was not able to move quicker. Upon this the cap tain seized him by the hair of the head, and threw him violently on the deck and kicked him all over the body. Rodriguez crawled forward on his hands and knees and belly to the forecastle. He told the crew that his inside was broken, and that he was a ot dying man , He never got on his feet afterwards. Tie stowed his bo d y again, and it was a mass of bruises, particularly on his breast and right side. t h rown was overboard, Before I n eo m f O r r IC o e h r o five had closed h days cl he diede, s t a tement of and his body the case on behalf of the prosecution, a remand was asked and granted, and the case stands adjourned to Saturday neki. don.

The Brilliant, 20, Captain J. A. Paynter ' which was paid off at Chatham on Satur d ay , has been in commission about 18 months, having been fitted out in May, 185 G, to join the squadron of Rear- Admiral A. Fansliawe, C. 8., then Commander-in- Chief on the North American and West Indian station. On sailing from England the Brilliant proceeded to Halifax, from whence she was ordered to the West Indies for the purpose of cruising among the Windward Islands t• assist in the sup pression of the slave trade. During her cruise, which extended over about 20,000 =les, the Bril liant visited Barbadoes, St. Thomas's, Grenada, Trinidad, and the other West India Islands. While cruising off Dominica the Brilliant succeeded in capturing a slaver called the Esmeralda, sup pose(' to have been a Brazilian slave ship ; at the time of the capture the schooner had upwards of 60 slaves on board, the whole of which were liberated. in Jam (lea. During the time the Brilliant was in the West Indies the crew were exceedingly un healthy.; and the mortality on board very great, 34 men and the chaplain having died at Grenada from yellow fever, which seized nearly 100 of the crew. Two able seamen, named Lewis and Wm. Morgan, were accidentally killed on board by falling from aloft. The Brilliant having been ordered to return to England sailed from the West Indies early in. Sept. for the purpose of being paid out of commis sion. By the new arrangement ordered by the Ad miralty the whole of the crew were on Saturday last paid off by Mr. E. J. Giles, the paymaster, in the short space of 1 hour and 40 minutes. On being paid off Wm. Street, quartermaster, was recommended to the Admiralty for the .silver medal and gratuity for long service and meritorious con duct. Several of the officers and a large number of the crew of the Brilliant will join the Racoon, 22, screw corvette, to be commissioned at Chatham by Captain J. A. Paynter. Captain Arthur Forbes (27th of August, 1846) commissioned the Renown, 91 guns, at Sheerness on Saturday last. The pendant was hoisted at 2.30 p.m. Commissions for the following officers have arrived from the Admiralty, viz.:—Lieutenants Robert Sterne and. the lion. Frederick W. Charteris ; Mr. John Scott, master and pilot ; and Mr. James R. Andrews, paymaster of the second class. A new marina engine boiler, patented by Rear- Admiral of the Blue John Jervis Tucker and Mr. George Blaxland, chief superintendent engineer at Sheerness Yard, has been under trial for some weeks pact, the trial being superintended by Mr. John H. Langley, inspector o machinery, on board the Edinburgh, for the steam squadron of reserve. The advantages the patent boiler possesses are, doing away entirely with the tubes now used in tubular boilers, generating a large supply of -team with a less quantity of fuel, and not being , ueje 't to the derangemtnts in heavy weather at sea like the present boilers. It is reported that the Admiralty have granted permission for one of the large class gantoats at Sheerness to be fitted with a boiler of the same description as the one now under trial, and she is t proceed to sea for a series of days in company wi h a gunboat (4f similar class, having the present tubular boilers fitted, in order fairly to test the effect in a heavy sea way. Rear-Admiral Laac Morrison (retired) succeeds to the 255. per diem list, by the death of Admiral Colin Macdonald, C.B. ; and retired Rear-Admi rals H. S. Marsham and Chas. Crowdy succeed to the 20s. list, vice Morrison and Admiral Sufism), C. 8., deceased. The promotion of Capt. Erskine will place Captain George St. Vincent King, C. 8., on the list of paid naval aides-de-camp. Captain Hope's promotion will make no change except that of placing Captain Robb one step nearer to the re munerative class, as it was well understood that Captain Hope's appointment could be nothing but an honorary one at the date of his selection for the distinguished office.

The resolutions of this meet ing were not a subject for a committee ; they could be dealt with by that board. It was perfectly chi merical to suppose that they could establish gas works for one parish, and the vestry had no legal power to assess the ratepayers for any such pur pose. No ono would ever make him (Mr. M'Evily) believe that these gas companies would be mad enough to raise the price of gas ; that act in itself would be suicidal, for it would arouse the whole metropolis. Dr. BACHHOFFNER said he for one was perfectly satisfied with the present price of gas at 4s. 6d., but he wanted some guarantee that it would not soon be 6s. per thousand feet. Mr. FREETR believed that if the gas companies were at once to raise the price of gas it would not only be suicidal, but an act of downr i g ht felo de se. (Roars of laughter, and cries of " What's the differ ence ?") Those who were fel de se were proposed to be people in their sound senses. (Hear, hear.) He urged that appeals should be made to the S. cre tary of State or Parliament, if they could not get proper control over gas comp mules. They had over come the gigantic monopoly of the water companies, and was it to be said they were to allow the ga- , companies to do as they liked. (Hear, hear.) Mr. VESEY thought the vestry would run into immense difficulties if they erected their own gas works in reference to site. Mr. MARKS said the pr o p er p arties to get up a gas company were the consumers themselves. Th • coming there under a belief that the vestry could aid them was a delusion. Mr. BELTON contended if the vestry had not the Power to erect gas works, they could soon go to Parliament and obtain it. Mr. BRIDGMAN had put his hand into his pocket formerly to establish a_gas company, and. lost his I money, but he would never du so again. Nor would he put his hand into the rate-payers' pockets, to run the risk with their money which he would not do with his own. Mr. SODEN, Mr. COLE, and other gentlemen sup ported the reference of the resolutions to the gas committee, and the motion was carried by a large majority. The vestry then separated. NATAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE, On Saturday orders were issued from the War office directing the commandant of the depot bat talions at Chatham and Colchester to hold in readi ness detachments of the underineutioned corps, th, whole of whom are to embark at Gravesend on D. c. the 4th for India, for the purpose of reinforcing the British regiments serving in the Bengal, Boer lety, anti Madras presidencies—viz. :—n4 eon commissioned officers and men selected from the Bth (the King's), 10th, 19th, 20til, 23d (Royal Welsh Fusiliers), 24th, 29th, 32d, 35th, 37th, 75th, 821, 84th, and 90th (Light Infantry) Regimens, together with 6 officers, the whole of whew will embark for Calcutta ; 164 non-commissioned officers and met), and 5 officers from the 18th (Royal Irish) 51st (Light Infantry), 64th, 83d, and 86th (Royal County Down) Regiments, to join tie head-quar ters of their respective regiments serving in the Bombay Presidency ; 181 non-commissioned offi cers and privates of the 7th (Royal Fusiliers), 27th (Enniskillen), 52d.

A further draught of men is expected t.) leave the camp shortly for service in India. Some troops are about to be stationed at Harwich. Recruiting is proceeding favourably in the eastern counties. The whole of the troops belonging to the Ist and 2d depot battalions at Chatham garrison, to the number of about 3,000 men of all ranks, assembled on the general parade glound at Chatham Barracies on Saturday afternoon for the purpose of being ia spested by Colonel H. Jervis and Colonel R. N. Piellips, in command of the respective battalions. The troops belonging to the respective depots hav ing been funnel in review order were inspected by the commanding officers, after which they broke into companies and defied past in slow and quick time. The appearance of the troops and the execu den of the various manoeuvres gave much satisfac tion to the inspecting field officers. A very handsome silver teapet, bearing a suitable inscription, was on Thursday evening last presented by the non-commissioned officers of the depot bat talions at Chatham garrison to Sergeant-Major Alexander Reid, who has for upwards of 20 years filled the situation of chief clerk in the provisional battalion officers at Chatham, and who is now about retiring from the service. The testimonial was pre sented to Sergeant-Major Reid by a deputation of upwards of 70 non-commissioned officers belonging to the garrison as a mark of the high respect and esteem in which he has been held during his long connection with the provisional battalion. Recruiting is going on actively at Derby. The sth Dragoon Guards, 37th Fuot, 63d Foot, Grena dier Guards, Royal Marines, and the Rifle Brigade have each received additions, about 200 men having been lately enlisted in those regiments. At Lincoln also recruiting is going on with spirit for the Royal Artillery, 81st Foot, &c. A detachment of 8 non-commissioned officers and 96 privates of the 4th Battalion Roya Marines were on Saturday paraded by Col. Brown, Com mandant of that Garrison at Woolwich, and were ordered to be held in readiness for service on board her Majesty's screw steam-ship Renown, 94 guns, to join the Channel squadron now about to be organized. A portion of the 3d company Bth Battalion Royal Artillery, from the Cape of Good Hope, have joined Capt. Maude's company serving with General Have lock; and detachments of No. 4 companies of the sth and Bth Battalions Royal Artillery, having been ordered from the Cape, have also joined to fill up vacancies recently created in these battalions now serving in India. The 2d Battalion of her Majesty's 2d Regiment (the Buffs) arrived at Can terbury on Saturday from Limerick, and took up the quarters vacated that morning by the depots of the 6th, 33d, 45th, 50th, and 52d Regiments of the line. The battalion, commanded by Lieutenaut- Colonel Maude, C. 8., consists of 650 young re cruits recently raised in Ireland. The court-martial held on board her Majesty's ship St. Vincent, on Friday, on Mr. Drew, late acting-master of her Majesty's ship Juno, after being 9 months under arrest, terminated on that even ing. The charges were, "For that he did, on board the said ship, on or about the 10th of July, 1857, negligently perform his duty and forsake his station ;" and " that he did, on or about the 10th of Feb., 1857, conduct himself with disrespect to wards Capt. Stephen Greville Fremantle, his com manding officer, by justifying his neglect of duty and refusing to receive a reprimand from his said commanding officer, which he had justly incurred." The prisoner was assisted by Messrs. Jas. and E. Hoskins, solicitors, of Gosport. After a protracted inquiry the Court, having heard the evidence in sup port of the charges,and what the prisoner had to offer in defence, was of opinion "that the charges had not been proven, and that the Court acquit the said Richard Caswell Drew of the charges brought against him, and he is hereby acquitted accord ingly." Another court-martial —making the third on the Juno's officers at the instance of her cap tain—will commence this morning on boar Fire t St. Vincent, to try Lieu t. Hu g o B. Burnaby, Lieutenant of the Juno, who has been und er arrest (and for some time under bayonet sentinel surveil lance) a year and a-half.

The Algiers, 31, sister ship, is being expedited for the pendant at Portsmouth as much as possible ; there will be no difficulty in manning a fleet if com missioned, the guardships being full of continuous and general service men, to the extent at Ports mouth alone of about 2,000 (collectively), above their own complements, and more are being.added daily by the ships paying off.

DARING ESCAPE.—On Saturday morning a convict, named Thomas King, alias Kelly, made his escape at Chatham in a very daring manner. For several weeks past large gangs of convicts from the new convict prison recently erected at Chatham have been employed in repairing the Government roads at Chatham, closely guarded by warders, all of whom are provided with a loaded rifle. On Saturday morning, about nine o'elock, the convicts were employed stone-breaking in the military road, when King asked leave of his warder, a m an named Jackson, to be al l o wed to retire for a few minutes. Permission having been, as usual, granted, he was followed by Jackson, when the convict made a sudden dart through the railings near the soldiers' hurialground at the foot of the lines, and, although fired at and followed for some distance by J acksen, succeeded in effecting his escape. Shonk, a police-constable, and several of the other warders, followed King, but, although it eras broad daylight and hundreds of persons about, he succeeded in gaining the woods at the out skirts of the tows, where all traces of him were lott, and, notwithstanding numbers of teen were all day Saturday and yesterday engaged in searching for him be could not be ..iscevered. The convict when be escaped had on the prison trousers, but was without a jacket. h viole n . c e He is a very des p erate character, and was under sen tence of transportat ion for a robbery The convict is a native of Northam Si.has been offered ton ; wit his height is sft. 7in • and ag e 25.
