Carttar, coroner for West Kent, re sumed the inquiry this morning, at the Plough, Leivisham, into the deaths of the eleven unfortu nate individuals who lost their lives on the North Kent Railway on Sunday night last. Mr. Bodkin,-instructed by Mr. Reos, solicitor to the South Eastern Railway Company, who work the line, attended to watch the case on their behalf. Mr. Burgon, for the engine-driver and stoker ; Mr. Soloman for the relatives of Mrs. A Wilcox and Miss M. A. Howe, sisters ; Mr. W. J. Scott, for the relatives of Mr. T. Franklyn ; Mr. Norton, of the firm of Norton, Son, and E am, for the rela tives of H. and T. Turner (hrothers-in-law) ; Mr. Armstrong for the relatives of Frincis Drake. The Hon. J. Byng, chairman of the board of directors of the South-Eastern Railway Company, was present during the day. The first witness examined was Mr. John Nel son, station-master, Lewisham—He deposed that on Sunday night the 9.15 train from &rood ar rived at the distance signal, Lewisham, ab tut 10.40 to the best of his rec illeotion. It 011. ; ht not to have stopped, but have ran throuili the station about 10.20. He did not know the cause of its de tention. The train drew up at the signal distance post because the danger signal . was up, in conse quence of the line being blocked between the Junc tion station and the Lewisham station. It drew ut, within thedistance signal, the h ad of the train being about 40 yards from the station master. Witne-s went to the train to see if there was room in it for the passengers left behind by the last train, making arrangements for stopping any up train ; finding there was no room in toe train, he did not have it brought to the station. He then went to the signal box, and saw the signal "stop all up," from the junction. He then tapped at the instrument two or three tun s, but received no reply. tie went out and SAW the signals up for the Mid KAI; train to be let out first. The train romaiued stationary from 10.40 till 10.55, when he saw an engine from Lewisham dart through the bridge with two white lights in front. He was much alarmed, ant before he could jump off he heard the collision. He ran down and seeing the frightful nature of the accident he went to the driver of the 9.30 train that ran into the other, and said to him, " How is this, how came you to run past the red light?" He replied, "Its a bad job, Mr. Wilson, I did not see the red light in sufficient time to pull np." Witness tben saw Abbott, the head guard of the train running towards the station ; he desired him t o run d own to stop anything coming up. A thought then occurred to him to recall Abbott, which he did, and asked him to examine the distance signals. Abbott replied, " That is all correct, I saw it plainly." • Witness replied, " Never mind," and asked him to go with him ; they went to the signals and found them correct. Witness went back to the signal box. where he found ; lie looked at the tel'graph needles and saw that they s oo I " stop all, up." He asked Wild, " How's this ;" Wild replied, " 1 cat say—Blackheath gave me two beats on the instrument, to which I gave no reply as the needle stood "stop all up ;" two heats indicated that the up train was ready to start, but ou receiving no reply the train ought not to hav e been stated, and the B'ackheath station -wager ought not to have detaine I it. If au answer had been given for the train to proceed, one beat would have been sufficient ; that might have been given without altering the needles pointing "stop all - Two dials were produced and the working of the in , truments explained by a gentleman connected with the railway electric nnnpany. It ap peared to be the most perfect plan that pr*sibly could be devised for safety by the preveuti , n of a To the instrument is atfixe t a gong and a bell for giving notice to e ich station, the gong being struck fu down trains and the bell for the Up trairo, and cn no occasion could they be struck by m'stake. If Lewisham signalled to Blackheath "stop all up," th.: la•tor could not have altered it until another signal from Lewisham that the line was clear. Bla,-;kbeitb, wi h tar-) l'e:ts, should have called the attention of Lewisham to the train being ready, and even a , imitting Lewisham might have given a wring signal pro vision was made fur rt c•iying such a mistake befo•e the trains leaving. The signals were struck by the pressure of a button and not by clock work, which gave a distinct striking that could not be mistaken in counting. The evidence of Mr. Nelson was then resumed— The last entry he found in Wild's book was the signal of the 9.15 train standing in the station ; it is the duty of the man at the instrument to immediately enter the signals he receives, and he had entered that the train had left Blackheath. Wit ness drew a line and wrote his name under it, tel.- ing the signal man to enter all further :ignals he received under it. The danger signal en the post that stopped the 9.10 train was in the same state when the 9.30 train arrived that ran into it. Tile signal post was under the care of Wild, and could not have been tampered with by any one during the 20 minutes that elapsed. Ha b lieved it had not been tampered with. If it hal been tampered with he or Wild must have known it. (rhe signal book was produced and examined by the coroner and jury.) By a juryman—The Lewisham Junction danger signal could not be seen at Blackhe tth, but the di s tance signal that s'opped the 9 15 train could be seen there ; the Blackheath station mtster had told him so. Witness desired Wild not to interfere with the signals to Blackheath, but to let them remain as they were. There being great confusion he went to the assistance of the sufferers. Saxby was in charge of the signals, vvhil-t he sent Wild to the train. He believed 11.1 did not alter them ; the train was stanclin , at the proper place wben the collision occurred' Perry alluded to the distance when h e sa id h e cou ld no t see the red light. It was a clear night, and the siemals could be d s tinctly seen. He believed Vie "driver (Perry) was sober. Witness did not notice the state of the breaks. It was the duty of the man Wild, who attended the electric signal, to work the other signals. He signalled of hi s own accor d t h oug h under his (witness's) personal orders. The 9.56 Woolwich train was the first cause of thestoppage. It was stopped at New Cross for the colle3tiou of tickets. The great mischief occurred to a third class carriage in front of a break van. This was an open third-class carriage ; had it been a covered carriage no doubt it would have better resisted the accident. By Mr. Burgon—lt would not hive been a prudent thing for the guard of she sta'ionary train to have gone back and put fog signals on the rails, because be was wait ng for a signal to pro:;eed. If he had deemed it prudent to doso lie shou!dcommu nicAtErwiththe driver to wait fi.r him. In this case he ought not to have done so beciuse the train was expecting to start every minty e. He did not know that the telegraph signals were auxiliary s'gnik They had b d en used on the line ever sin c e he h , d They it. In the absence of the telegraph vre back. thoughtil the guard ought not to have . thought a danger signal sufilei-int minu t es. protet'on for t. aitrwaiaabiut to rem in two or three thought then t hi, fo "e . to remain half an hour he telegraph signals 4 8,,imgoal s should. be used. Tile box, and theP conimuncielalitup" were entered in a :who would inform the guard -6 the station master, driver If ".all clear" w as i'ar toe ,the eugine fore it was started, would te R - ie, a train, be lled, and it was often star ed b-fore an answ e - r 'glia co He denied that Vie 9.15 train : s l , ?• ti be e ret trued .itiAtal at a spe. d of five miles an hoer, (" " ce The driver a that train, passed.it and cam e on tot pho t o s i g ,, a ]. It was the practice on the non-stopping and other twins not to treatLe the for distance signal or a stopping signal without e any thing else occtured, but to jcome on to the soma _ phore signal. He" caled to Abbott •o look to the signals in justification of his con , ;uA that nil was right ; there had been comphitts of the stve of the signal from engine drivers. Hid might have c nn plaitied of it two days b fore the accident occurrel, but he did not recollect It. He did not notice on Sunday night the passengers get out of the train, and tit-it they pres-ed on the wires of the signals as they sa` ou the bank ; the effect of sting on the wire would be to strain it, and probably swing round the signals ; the wires werenot protected from the public. Where the train stopped the wires of the signals were olose to the ground. Plans of the Lewisham and Blackheath stations, with the curves, signals, &c., were put in and proved by Mr. Curtis Edwards, engineer of Graves end, who was also examined at some length as to there relative distances. The distance signal at Lewisham could be seen at Blackh-ath ; it was 281 yards between the distance and the semaphore signal ; the line slightly curved but not sufficient to prevent the distance si. t nal being seen. It could be seen under the bridge. By Mr. Bodkin—He did not notice if there was a t til light to the train which was run into. By Mr. Burgon—On Tuesday after the accident the gas pipes used for the signals were cleaned out ; he did not know when they were cleaned out be , fore. By the Coroner—The pipes were cleaned to im prove the light. By Mr. B .dkin—He could not say when the pipes were cleaned out before. When he want--d to improve the ligh's he had the gas pipes cleaned out. By the Coroner—The wire was pushed to put on the red light, and a person sitting on the wire would cause the substitution of the white for the re 1 light. Mr. Burgon said he should be in a position to show that the effect of the persons on the wire that night was to shift the lights. By the Coroner—Witness had no occasion to go to the end of the trAin before the accident, and tha - was why he did not know if there was a red light there. By Mr. Bodkin—He believed there was no'hing to justify the engine -driver entering the station on Sunday night in the manner he did. By a Juror—He was Unable to state the speed at which the 9.30 train entere l tne station. By the Coroner—lt appearel to enter the station at a Lister speed than was usual for a stopping train. The speed of entering a train depended ranch on the state of the weather. By Mr. Bodkin—There is great traffic on Sunday nights. By the Corner—He considered the distance signal the commencement of the station. Ater stopping a train at the distance signal, and the driver saw no train a-head, he might adv tune to the semaphore signal. If the driv,r of this train had noticed the red light, and not the train on the line, he was justified incoming on to the semaphore signal. The Coroner then called for Wild, the signal-man. Mr. Bodkin—He is in custody, undergoing ex amination before the magistrate. William Wi'ey, guard, No. 20, deposed that he was guard of the 9.15 train from Str.iod on Sunday night. The train was late, owing to five minuses' stoppage, at Woolwich, and five minutes at Charl ton, fit all ele-r signal-J. The train arrived at Lewis ham at 10.38. The train ought to have run through the station, but it was stopped in conse quence of the danger signal being on. Witness put his break on as soon as he saw the signal, but find ing the pace slackened, and the driver going care fully, he took off his break. The train stopped about 100 yards within the distance signal, and shortly after stopped dead. He got out and stood behind his break in the rear of the train. There was a red tail-light on the off side of the train, and he hal his red hand-light with him. Witless went back a little and saw the Beckenham train go to wards London. He heard a train coming, on which he ran forward, waved his lamp, and whistle I with his fingers. He was standing on the down line. His reason for using his fingers in whistlinc , was, that he could make a louder noise than if he use] the company's whistle. He shou'ed, whistled, ' and waved his light, but the driver of the train did I not appear to novice him. When he turned round ' he saw the d . st ince signal. He did not se) it ' flicker. The die ante signal could be seen at all times shortly after leaving Blackheath. He hid seen it from Blackheath station. The seam of an engine going through a towel or under a bridge impeded the sight of this signal. The train was de layed 18 or 20 minutes before the collision. He was on the down line all the time, and he was tin.- able to say if any of the passern:ers left the train. liebelieved one or two ot the off doors were not lo;ked ; the keys did not fit them, and there was not tiros t.) lock t leak before t tey left S!rood. The train passed him at th, usual speed ot 20 m lei an hour—the speed of a train at:out to stop at Lowish-em. It was down an inclined plane. The st ppagd of a train depended oir the engine, length of irtin, and the weather. Some trains could be sopped within 100 yards, whilst others required 300 parch. He considered it was the duty of the st ttion-master to give orders for the advance, 830., of a train "siopp-d" within the distance signal ; lie also considered the train ptotec ed when it got within the dirt trice signal, and that it was not his duty to go back half-a-mile and put fog signals on tie lines. He had his fog signals in his pouch when he walked back tow .rds the train, but there was not time then for him to place fog signals ou the ling. By Mr. Burgon—He could have done it if he had g - me, back immediately after the train stopped, brit he did not consider he was required to do so. The pa sengers were not unusually noisy for Sunday p isserters. By Mr. Nort - in—Ove red light was placed at the tail of ordinary trains. If an express train was to flow two tel tail lights were used. By Mr. Burgon—He bad heard engine drivers say they had been on duty 18 hours a day ; the long st time he had been on duty was on Sundays. It lasted from half-past 7 o'clock iu the morning till 11 or half-past 11 o'clock at night, with an in terval of two hours. After some further evidence, the inquiry was ad jourTe.i. Photographs, taken by direction of the company of the line, by Mr. Beard, the photographist of King William-street, were produced before the jury, showing that the signals at Lewisham were distinctly visible at distsnces greater than ne cess4ry for the diiver to bring his train to a stand, and one of the photographic views was taken from an engine placed on the main line of the railway ar, the Blackheath Station, a distance of three-quart-rs of a mile ; the other from the engine when at ti e distance of 800 yards from the Lewisham station. In both views the danger signal was most clearly deliceated, and, in one, the guard who ran back on the night of the aceident, to warn the approaching train was also most accurately represented, as holding out his I lamp as a signal of danger. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF LORDS.—(This Evening.) ROYAL CO M MISSION. The Royal As-ent was given by commission to the following bills :—The Consolidated Fund (8,000,0001.); Insurers of Lives (Abatsment of Income-tax) Continu ance ; Ministers Money (Ireland) ; Court of Exchequer (Ireland) ; Calcutta and South Eastern Railway ; Ports inouth Ral.ay ;North-Eastern Railway (capital) ;Dun bar:, on Water; Islington Parish ; Brighton Hove; Preston Constant Water Service; Exeter and Exnouth Railway; Cork Gas ; Kidsgrove Nlarktt ; Great Ya.rmoirl Brit tailia Pier ; Bridgwater Market and Fairs; Waterford and Tramore Railway; Dublin arid Wicklow Railway; al.() Sew scraig Estate.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. The Earl of DARTMOUTH presented a petition from Bridgewater praying that corn might be sold at one de hoite weight throughout the country. Lord BELPER presented a petition from North ampton in favour of the .Te s ish Di-ablities Bill. SECOND READINGS Oa the motion of Lord REDESDALE the following bills w , ,re read a sec ind time :—Carew's Estate, and Strat ford-upon-Avon Railway. THIRD READINGS. The following bills) were severally reed a third time and passed :—Shepherd's Disabilities Removal, Wilm stan and Lawton Road, Fras:rhury Harbour. THE RATE OF EXMIANGE IN INDIA. Toe Earl of ELLENEOROUGH called attention to the ateration made in the rata of exchange to which the East India Company are parties, in reference to the reception of funds from this country, an an neuncement to that effect having appeared in the pub lic newsp,pers. The alteration was a mere reduction in the rate of exchange of one farthing, being about 24 in the pound. The altera . ien would come in propor tioowe reduction in the price of bar silver and dollars. It might be that the East India Company bad adopted that course with a view of checking the export of silver fr.:oat this country, which had increased to a great extent. But whether such was the purpose, or whether it was for obtaining a larger amount of funds by offering more fa vourable terms for them, the effect would be precisely the same. Tl.e Indian Government remitted money to England in the following way :—Money was advanced io Reba upon the receipt of goods hypothecated to the Company, and it was transmitted hither in the shape of bill , . If those bills should happen not to be paid, it was an acL of bankruptcy. If, however, they-were paint, the danger of the Government at present was very great in paralysing the operations of commerce. The revenue of India was subject to great danger. In the first place there was great oanger in the non collection imposts There was further dat , g,-r from being unable tc trat,smit Vie remaining funds to this country. He shouid be glad to know the coime the Government intended to pursue under thet. , e nircumstanc,s. Eirl GRANV ILLE —The Government were fr,- queLth indebted to the noble earl for his suggestions. The subject alluded to by the noble earl had not escaned the notice of her Majesty's Governmeot. There was co fear to apprehend a total drain in tha.. country. He assured the noble lord the Governme.it would closely watch the matter, and take care that the finances of the country were kept in a safe and healthy condition. IRISH REPRESENTATIVE PEERS. The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the following resolution :—That all petitioners claiming a right to vote at the election of representative peers for Ireland, by virtue of peerages under which a right to vote had been admitted by the House of Lords of the United Kingdom, be referred to the Lord Chancellor or Lord Keeper of the Great Seal to consider and report thereupon, and the Lord Chancel lor or Lord Keeper is upon such reference to consider the matter of the said petition, and to make his report thereupon to the house. After a few observations from Lord REDESDALE the motion was agreed to. rut 111, u 1. 0 N nON • PRITIAV rVEN N(4. 0 9 fat?' LEFT SITTING. HOUSE OF COMMONS—(This Day.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. The Lords Amendments to the Forth and Clyde Junc tion Rail way and Saint Philip's Church (Liverpool) Bills were considered and agreed to. Tae London Gas Light Company (Capital) ; Metro politan Ca tle Market ; North Level Drainage ; Orkney Roads ; Reading Railways Junction Railway ; Salisbury and Yeovil Railway ; South -Eastern Railway (Greenwich Junction to D 'Word, e&c ), Swan sea Harbour Trust and Swansea Dock Company, Vic toria Ga+, and West of Fife Mineral Railway bills were read a third time and passed. The Bourne and Easendine Railway, Islington Parish Acts Amendment; Rhywney Rad way ; Tweed Fisheries; Lancaster and Carlisle and Ingieton Railway ; and Thames and Medway Conservancy Bills were further considered and ordered t he read a third time. The Hereford Cathedral Restoration Bill was read a second time. THE THAMES AND MEDWAY CONSERVANCY BILL. Sir J. GRAHAM called the attention of the house to this bill, which proposed to deal with the question that had been a long timein dispute between the Corporation of London and the Crown, relative to waste spots on the embankments of toe Thames. The bill pro posed to deal with two prints of great public import ance, viz., the constitution of the body of the c oiser vators ; and, secondly, as to the funds to be raised from shipping by that body. He was of opi nion that the conservancy body, instead of being nominated, as was proposed by the bill, by a close body, should be elected by those who had to pay the due , and, secondly, that dues should not be le vied upon shipping, and should not he exacted to a greater extent than stupor g purposes required. He asked whe ther the recommendation of the Board of Trade were oot to t e pr—posed constitution of the former, and read ex tracts from the report of the B tard of Trade eh° ving that the corporatkn of London would po-se- , s 4reater powers under the formation of the conservancy body than the Government. In reference to the second point, the right hon. baronet als t read extracts from reports of the Board of Trade, and said that the bill would not carry out the recommendation of the B .ard of Trade for the re , luction of the dues if any surplus remained to be carried out. The CLIANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that no departure of the principle laid down in the re port of the London Corporation Committee had been ssseuted to by the Government. The only variation that ba'l been made was one of detail, and not of prin ciple. The dispute between the Government and the Corp ration of London was with reference to the right to pieces of waste land between high and low water. Toe Corporation claimed it as conservatories of the Thames,and appled the funds to the conservancy of the river, and the G)vernment claimed the bed and shores of the river between high and low water mark at belonging to the Crown. The right hon. gentleman proceeded to de tail at considerable length the dispu•es between the cor pontion and the Government relative to this matter, which it was attempted to settle in 1846, and what bad been done subsequently towards that otjeet. The board was to consist of six members of the corporation, three to be appointed by Government and two by the Trinity-house, which, he thought, wauld give the Government a fair preponderance, because he con sidered more weight ought to ba given to the persons nominated by Government than to their members. If tha Corporation of London were found to act improperly, the matter would be reconsidered by the Government with a view to its alteration. Mr. L. KING moved the adjournment of the debate till this day week. After some remarks from Mr. W. WILLIAMS, Mr. LABOUCIIERE resisted the motion for the adjournment• of the debate. The bill had been referred to a select committee and thoroughly examined, and the whole of the facts were known to the house. He still of the opinion be had formerly expressed that a tax levied in a given part upon shipping should be applied to tne shipping purposes of that port, and be under the controul of a separate body, - - - - Sir D. L. EVANS asked what amount of taxation would be conceded to the c.rporatlon under this b 11. and expressed an opinion that no greater taxes should he levied on the shipping of the pmt than was ne cessary for its conservancy. Several important ques tions were involved in this bill, and be should sup port the hon. and learned baronet, the member for Carlisle, for an adjournment. The CHANCELLOR, Gf the EXCHEQUER said it was not proposed, by this bid, to give new power to tax shipping. The present navigation fund was in arrears 2,8441, and be thought it was not likely that the income would be increased. Mr. HENLEY approved of the constitution of th. Proposed board, and exprthsed an opinion that adjourn. ing the debate would be injurious to the parties Inte rested. lie thought this bill proposed a satisfactory arrangement, considering the right of the respective parties were in (Lennie. Sir J. GRAHA.M. wont] not press for a division, but wait till the further stage of the bill. In the meantime he advised h.m. members to read the rep irts of the Board of Trade in reference to this subject. It he read the bill ri4htly, there was a new principle in it for taxing ship ping between Putney and Teddington, and an appropri atlon of the surplus, to which he also objected. It also dealt with matters relative to the coal and corn duties. He proposed that the bill should n. 4 be advanced a stage, but that it should stand over, and the matter con sidered befure its third reading. Sir G. GREY said it was not a Government bill, but arrangements should be made to meet the views of the house. Sir J. SHELLEY suggested that the third reading of the bill should stand over till this day week. He would then recornmet,cl the withdrawal of the amendment. Sir J. DUKE defended the conduct of the Corporation of L indon in ic , troduciog this bill. Sir G. GREY said that no private bill would be re ceived aft.-r Wednesday next by the House of Lords. He suggested that the third reading should stand over till Tuesday. The amendment was withdrawn, and the third reading fixed for Tuesday nt xt. TEWKESBURY ELECTION. Mr. ELLIS jun., reported that the committee ap pointed to inquire into the election of Tewkesbury de clared Mr. J. Martin duly elected for that borough. INDIA.. Lord C. HAMILTON asked the First Lord of the Trea.ury, what day he would give for the conclusion of the Indian debate, the adjournment of which on the 23d June was agreed to by the President of the Board of Control on the ground of the great importance of the sutjset. 1.4-,rd PALMERSTON said he was unable to fix a definite period fir the resumption of the debate, owing to the pressure of business. ORDNANCE SURVEY. Sir D. NORREYS asked the Secretary to the Trea sury when the supplemental estimate for the ordnance survey of Scotland would be presented to the house ; and whether any orders or instructions had been issued to the Ordnance Department in respect of the scale on which the Survey of Scotland and England was to be drawn in future. Mr. WILSON could not state the precise time when the supplemental estimates wculd be presented. After the decision of the house, orders had been issued to the Ordnance Department, that all work commenced from this time should be drawn on the 6 inch scale. POSTAL COMMUNICATION BE CWEEN LON DON AND DUBLIN. Mr. CORRY asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether the Government had accepted the conditions of a contract fur an impr , ved Postal and Passenger Communication between London and Dublin. Mr. WILSON said that, with the exception of one point of a trifling character, arrangements bad been made between the Great Northern Railway and the Post-office for the conveyance of the mail, roe land passage would be performed in 3i hours, and the whole service between London and Kit geton would occupy 11 hours, and between London and Dui lin 11 hours. THE CASE OF JOHN TILLEY. Mr. DRUM MOND asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what report. he had received from the Coanni,sioners of Lunacy with regard to the cum i.laint of Thomas Tilley, that he had been confined in au iron jacket in a dark room for ,even weeks in the Bever ley Retreat for Luuetics near York, to which Commis siuntra the sail complaint was sebt for inve-t+gation ? Sir G. GREY said that this lunatic was a vi .lent man, bu', the cotnru s•iouers had condemned, in strong the particular tieattnent complained of, which conduct would not be tepeateci in future.

Last winter was no mean sev e re, and, the breeding season being excellent, ti.e herds have thriven extremely well. As one correspon dent observed, " there never was a better sward of grass among the mountains at such an early period of the year. The deer, therefore, must soon he as b fat as pigs." In ihe Duke of Richmond's forests of Glenfiddich and Biackwater, says a correspon- " the deer were never more promisine, fl. a good season. They are showing fine heads and cleaning off the old hair very fa-t. The gras4 is very good, and if the fine weather continue they should be in excellent condition by the middle of August. The early fawns look str ong ." A not h er correspondent, writing of the same forest, says, "Tire young fawns are so thriving and so fir forward that they are running in frifint of the herds—Jeading the van.". A correspondent, writing of the Mortlach shootings, says, 66 Tile plantations i n that di s t r i c t appear pre ty well stocked with roe deer." A S trath avon con esponde,t-ar4"TheGlenav on f ores t, w h ic h lies between, Tomiutoul and the Cairngorm range this year abounds with deer. It is, in fact, covered with boll stags and hin d s , wit's few if any barren hinds to be seen. The st ags are fast getting into good condition, an d beginning to take t o th e hi g h grAinds. I have no doubt but by the time Lord H. Bentinck visits his shooting qu4rters he will find his forest all tha t he could w i s h." A cones ponder.t, writing frost Du t hil, with reference to the shootings occupied by the sportsmen wh o re side at Carrbridge, says " They have a large park of the forest enclosed, where there are a great number of roe deer in first-rate con dition, and some rod cher have found their way into it. We expect there will soon be a stock of both in the park. Present prospects promise good sport. Equally grat.fying accounts reach us from Ross-shire.

We are authorised to state that, though the subject of the importation of free blacks into the West Indies was mentioned in the course of the conversation between Lord Palmerston and a deputation of the %Vest India body introduced by Lor.l Shaftesbury, the noble earl is decidedly opposed to such an experiment, regarding it as perilous in the extreme. —Morning Paper. EXTRAOADINARY SUICIDE OF A YOllTH.—Yesterday the family of a gentleman, named Marshall, residing at 151, Slane-street, Chelsea, were plunged into a state of deep affliction in consequence of one of the sons, a fine in telligentyouth, between 15 and 16 years of age, committing suicide by throwing himself off the Kensington-gardens bridge into the Serpentine river. From the best infor mation that can be at present collected respecting the the distressing affair, it appears that between nine and ten o'clock on Wednesday evening, a young gentleman was noticed to ascend the parapet of the bridge in ques tion and precipitate himself into the water ; an instant alarm was given, when the boats of the Royal Humane Society put off from the north shore, and threw the drags into the river near the ecot where the unfortunate yorith bad disappeared. It was more than halt an hour before the body was disc,,vered, when it was taker to the Receiving.bouse, and Dr. Christian, the medical attendant of the sociely, e ndeavoure d b y ever y p ossib le means to resuscitate the body, bfl , ; witnout success. No cause, as yet can be assigned for the you t h co m mitting the rash act. 1 AuvaiertsamEmp.l— AND GENTLEMEN OF THE ARMT AND NAV Y . —S , and ii.
