Two other accidents occurred on the river, which were fortunately una ttended with any loss of life.

Another demonstration of public feeling in Poland was given at Lemberg., in Galicia, on the 31st ult., on the occasion of the execution of Theophilus and Joseph Kapuscinski, declared guilty of high treason against Austria, by the Imperial Courts, on the Ist of July of the present year. The sentence condemned them to be hung on a gallows, and they suffered death accorlingly. Kapuscinski was also accused of having put to death the Mayor of Pilsno ; the charge was not, however, proved. On the 28th their sentence was read to them in public, and on their appearance the surrounding multitude, heedless of the authorities, greeted them with enthusiastic shouts and waving of hats, and threw crowns of flowers at their feet. This was but a prelude to the unpo4ing demonstration on the morning of the execu tion, and testifies the undying spirit of inclepen dence which still glows in the hearts of the 'Folibh inhabitants of Lemberg. As the clock struck six, a car on which the two condemned were standing left the prison, under the escort of a large body of troops. From an early hour in the morning the balconies of the different houses in the streets through which the procession had to pass were occupied by persons of both sexes, dressed in the deepest mourning, and that caused the authorities to make a change in the intended route, and take a circuit by the outer walls to the place of execution, which in some measure dis concerted the proposed demonstration of the inhabi tants. The endeavours of some to get a glimpse of their countrymen were extraordinary. It was in vain that the bayonet or the cavalry endeavoured to keep them back, they broke through the ranks, and threw flowers into the car. Many of them shed tears. The resigned and ellm expression on the strikingly handsome countenance of Wisniowski gained him the sympathy of all who beheld him. Kapuscinski was less collected, but died manfully. The execution of the priest who is under sentence of death has been adjourned till further orders. REPORT OP THE JERSEY Lew COMMISSIONERS.— This document, which has been so anxiously looked for, is arrived at last. In the course of a few hours it he came known that the Commissioners had recommended organic ohanges,involving upaid police; the separation of the judicial from the legislative powers; and a reorgani zation of the former, in which the present jurats find no place. These, and some alterations in the powers and duties of the Crown officers, and an opening made for changing the language of the courts of justice, form the principal alterations proposed. They may be enume rated as follow : l. The abolition of the present court, and the institution of three courts, each presided by a qualified summary, preliminary, and final judge, to be paid by the Crown. 2. Throwing open the bar. 3. The adoption of the English lang uage in all cases where parties require it. 4. Trial by Jury. 5. The abolition of our honorary and the institution of a paid police. for day and night. 6. The establishment of a police court, or sitting magistrate, for the summary disposal of petty offences. 7. Assimilation of the criminal law to that of England. These are the leading features which the commissioners recommend fur the redress of our grievances. We are to be relieved of our honorary system, and to have a responsible one instituted in its place. This will be an excellent improvement —one that will eventually give universal satisfaction. If the re should be any difficulty in providing fund s to pay t e cost of the administration of p ublic j ustice, the commis sioners recommend that her Majesty's Government should s h ou ld impose a duty of 4 d. pe r r ound on h consume d in the island, which , it is est imated,t would produce T a he revenue renom o m f e e n , e d e a t q uite f s u th fif n cie n n o t m f m o for s t s h i o e u p e u r r s: pur pose. though different in some respectsfrom h t ope hos , e li of our tha own, the have our entire appro bation ;and we " - crisis is come, that all differences of opinion will be stir rendered for the public goad, and that every effort will be made by both parties to carry out the changes con templated.—.Tersey News.

T and HE WAR W The Washi ng t on correspondent of the New Y or k Courier Inquirer w rites lTH MEXICO.from that city on the 19th of July t o t h e f o l lowing effect : " We mu s t now b e on the eve of the most im portant intelli gence from Mexico ; and the problem will soon be solved whether we are to have war or peace. My own opinion, formed upon the latest in telligence from Puebla, is still that it will be peace. It is quite certain there is a large party, even in the present congress of Mexico, in favour of peace; but whether they number a majority or not of that body must be speedily determined. In the meantime it is certain, notwithstanding all that has been said to the contrary—first, that the mediation of Great Britain for peace, as proffered to 111,x'co, has not been re jected by the congress of Mexico, neither has it, as yet, been accepted; second, the terms proposed by Mr. Trist have not yet been rejected by the Congress of Mexico at the latest dates from the capital. If they are rejected, or their acceptance delayed, General Scott will advance and take the city. But if, on the other hand, as is extremely probable, these terms should be accepted and the treaty ratified at once by the Congress of Mexico, Gen. Scott, in that event, will not advance beyond Puebla, but will await orders from the Government here, which would, no doubt, con vene the Senate at once, so as to have the ratification exchanged, and peace re-established. I do, however, undertake to say, by intelligence direct from Puebla, that if Mr. Trist had conducted the negotiation pro perly, and placed his dispatch in the hands of General Scott, so as to be transmitted to the Mexican Go vernment immediately after the battle of Cerro Gordo, we should have had peace long before this period. I repeat that the proceedings of the Mexican Govern ment, shortly after the battle of Cerro Gordo, and now well known at Puebla, wherever they are pub ' lished, will demonstrate that at that time Mr. Trist's proposals, if he h4d sent them on as he ought to have done, would have been accepted by the Government of dexico. I still think they will be accepted ; but if they are not, the objection must be attributed to this fatal delay. Whatever may be said here to the contrary, by the Union or any one else, I undertake to say, upon unquestionable authority, from Puebla, that Mr. Trist did undertake to give a military order, although, according to my information from Mexico, Mr. Buchanan's dispatch and instructions to Mr Trist were perfectly right, and are considered by all who have seen them there as most judicious and proper; yet Mr. Trist, speaking in the name of the President, did give a military order to General Scott, which necessarily delayed negotiation. I say such an order fram Mr. Trist has been seen at Puebla, and has produced the utmost astonishment in the mind of every military man there who is cognizant of the fact. It is unpleasant to censure any public functionary, especially a gentleman who is so amiable in private life as Mr. Trist, but where such great public interests are involved, and such weighty re sponsibilities resting upon all connected with these transactions, it is right and just that the truth should be told in order that the censure may fall upon those only by whom it is merited."

By advices from New Zealand to the 20th of March we have received rather important intelligence. The accounts state that the land question between the natives and the governor had been adjusted at an interview held between his Excellency and several of the chiefs. The amount of compensation to be received by the natives is 5,000/. ; namely, 2,0001. for the disputed lands at Parma. and 3,0001. fur the Wairau. The money was to be paid down in five yearly instalments. 1,6001. of the amount is to be paid this year; two payments of 1,1001. will he made in the next two years, and the remainder will be paid in the two following years, the last instal ment being paid in 1857. By the concession ju,t made the Government obtain all the land from Wairau to the farms comprised in the New Zealand Company's limits. On the middle island, also, con siderable quantities of land have been given up. The natives, during the discussion, evinced great anxiety about the release of Rau Rarahu, but the Govern ment declined giving him up. The news about the settlement of the long-Fen ling dispute with the aborigines had of course diffused great satisfaction throughout the colony. EATH IN A LUNA I'IC ASYLUM. Yesterday an adjourned inquest was held before Mr. Baker and a jury at the Five Bells, Bow, on the body of John Milk, who died in Grove louse Asy lum. The proceedings were cominenced by reading the deposition of Thomas Lynch, a keeper employed in the establishment, who was examined on Thurs day, which was to the effect that the deceased was forty-two years of age, that he came from the parish of All Saints, Poplar; that he had been in Grove House Asylum since October last; that for the last !'ortnight he had complained of a pain in his bowels; that he was seen by the medical gentleman twice ; was very much excited, and was confined at niat with flannel bands on his wrists,,leaving his hands free for giving play and motion. He went to bed on Sunday night in a violent state, in a crib boarded at the sides and ends. In the night he contrived to get his legs and part of his arms over the crib, and bruised his legs, but not seriously. That he was in a ward with fourteen other lunatics, in the infirmary ; that the witness sat up till twelve o'clock, and slept in the ward ; that the deceased was quiet during the night ; that at four o'clock in the morning he was found sitting up, quite dead; his head was on the side of the crib, and his legs were over the side, his feet upon the floor; his face was downwards. Restraints were not used without the authority of the medical gentleman. Mr. Baker, the surgeon, was then examined, and stated that he found the deceased plump and in good condition; the body exhibited nothing remarkable externally, except a slight bruise on the breast; on moving the integuments, six ribs on the right and five on the left side were found fractured. The lungs were not punctured ; they were largely adherent, marking old inflammation. The heart and liver were healthy, the small intestines inflamed, and the mucous membrane destroyed in places. The brain was particularly soft, and in some places destroyed, and from the state of it the patient could not have lived for any length of time. He imagined death to have been caused by the injury to the chest, which would act more readily on a man whose brain was in such a condition. The fracture of the ribs might have been caused by pressure on the side of the crib ; they were fractured outside ; the discolouration of the chest was indicative of the fracture. The jury having expressed a strong opinion that, in such an establishment, there ought to be a man sitting up all night with his eye on the patients, proceeded to examine the bandages, and stated that they considered the de ceased had been more tightly bound than was repre sented by the keeper. The room was then cleared, and the following ver dict returned, after a deliberation of nearly an hour : —" That the deceased was labouring under a defec tive condition of the brain, which predisposed him to death, without any violence. That he was found dead enclosed in a crib, and that his ribs were frac tured apparently by violent pressure of th • chest from his own action, bein; at the time under restraint from flannel bandages round his wrists, but how or Iv what means the said fractures were caused, whicn were of very recent date, no satisfactory evidence had been given to the jurors, and the jurors recom mend fur the future that a constant vigilance should_n be exercised with lunatics in the establis hm r order to prevent a recurrence of a futurceur accident.rence with The C9RONER expressed his f the verdict.
