FATAL ACCIDENT ON BOARD SHIP.—On Thursday, a boy, named Regan, was employed to store some coals on board a ship in the Victoria Dock ; and when lifting up one of the hatches, he by some means slipped and fell upon some casks in the hold, receiving such injuries as caused his death in little more than an hour. CRICKET MATCH AT BIRKENHEAD.—On Thursday evening, a cricket match was concluded between the second eleven of the Olympus Club (Prince's -park), and the first eleven of the Birkenhead Victoria. There was some "hard hitting" on both sides. The Victoria won, with five wickets to spare. FINE ARTS.—A very choice and valuable collection of about three hundred oil and water colour paintings, the property of Messrs. Agnew and Son, of Manchester, has been opened for exhibition at the Old Police-office, High-street. The collec tion includes the productions of the first men in the English and French schools of art. CHANCE FOR THE LOVERS OP THE FINE ARTS.—A fine collection of paintings, by well-known masters, both ancient and modern, is at present on view at Mr. Morrish's, Mer chants' Dining Rooms, in Tithebarn-street, where they are to be disposed of, on the 7th of next month, a l'Art Union, amongst 300 subscribers, at a guinea each. The paintings include several valuable works. CRICKET MATCH AT 1100TLE.—On Thursday, a match came off between the first eleven of the Oriental Club, and the first eleven of the Derby Club. Special permission was obtained to use the fine ground of the Bootle Club. The wickets were pitched at half-past four o'clock, and the game terminated in favour of the Derby Club, by six wickets to go down. The playing on both sides was spirited, although the scoring did not run very high. THE TRIAL TRIP OF THE LABIIAN took place on Wed nesday, and was attended with highly satisfactory results, the speed attained being about eight knots an hour. The Labuan is an iron vessel of tubular construction, the sides curved round so as to form the deck ; and her double bottom will permit her to carry wader ballast. She is intended for the coal trade of the Eastern Archipelago, and was built Messrs. W. and C. Miller, of this town, from the designs of Mr. Hodgson, en gineer, for the coal trade of Borneo. SALE , OF FIRST-CLASS PAINTINGS.—On Thursday and Fridaymett, Mr. Branch will sell at his rooms, in Hanover street, collection of paintings by modern artists, including several first-class works by Herring, Ansdell, Etty, Bright, David Roberts, T. S. Cooper, Greenland, Solomon, Lee, &c. The paintings are the property of Mr. Flatou, the well-known collector, of London, and are greatly superior to the average collections offered for auction sale in the provinces. STEALING MARKED MONKT.— At the Police-court, on Friday, John Smith, a yard-keeper in the employ of Messrs. 'Humble, Grayson, and Co., Regent-road, was charged with stealing various sums of money belonging to his employers. The prisoner lived under the office, and the taah-keeper having missed various sums of money, he marked several pieces of gold coin on Thursday, and left them in 'his drawer. He then went out, and on his return he found that several sovereigns and half-sovereigns had been stolen. The prisoner was taken into custody at his house, with several pieces of marked money in his possession. He was committed for trial. THE CORPORATION BATHS AND WASHOUSES—We learn. that these establishments are in a most flourishing condition. The great demand forthe accommodation they 'afford is a proof that the public fully appreciate the benefits which the libera lity of the town council and the exertions of the baths com mittee have placed withinthe reach of all. During last week the number of bathers at Cornwallis-street was 6,238, at the Pier-head 3,521, and at Paul-street 2,657, being nearly double the number of bathers for the corresponding week of last year. At the wasbhouses • the number of persons who attended during the week was 213-at Paul-street, and 290 a Frederick-street All classes seem equally desirous of enjoying the baths. DEATH OF MR,. 'JOHN NELSON WOOD.-This gentleman, who for many years carried on business as -a merchant and shipowner, in Liverpool, expired at four c'elqck on Thursday morning, at his residence, Oaklands, Rook Ferry, Cheshire. Mr. Wood was born in the town of Maryport, Cumberland, and was 63 years- of age. For ten or eleven days preceding his death he -was confined to his bed, , and for some time previous his health was declining. The deceased was for a number of years v member of the Liverpool corporation, from which he retired:in November, 1853, whentthe term for which he could serve vs alderman without being re-elected expired according to the Municipal Act. Up to the time of his death he was chairman of the pilots' committee, .an office which he held for a considerable period. He was also for some years a member of the dock committee. Besides serving the public in these capacities, Mr. Wood was a warm supporter of various institutionne cte charitabledwithiwninsttihr merged of the town. He'w's for 30 years con rugafdeminenttheofsathilor%Sall, m o o r m s' e, H a o n s d pit d a u l, rin a g n the latter portion of that time he held the office of chairman of the committee. AN OLD OEFENDER.—A young woman, named Elizabeth Rimmer, about 23 years of age, of prepossessing appearance, was charged at the Police-court, on Wednesday, under the following circumstances :—She came out of Kirkdale Gaol on Monday, after serving three months' imprisonment for imposing upon parties in the neighbourhood of Bootle, by re presenting herself as a distressed daughter of more than one celebrated deceased person. The police, having other charges against her, she -was re-arrested. It appeared that, on the 7th March, she called to consult Mr. J. P. Harris, surgeon, Clarence-street, 'and was shown into the surgery. While there she contrived to abstract a case of surgical instruments, and also the contents of another, which she afterwards managed to pawn with Mr. Little, of flrownlow-hill, by a plausible story about a distressed father. A day or two after that she obtained-a situation as servant with Mrs. Nicholson, of Harford-street. There she stole a purse, containing £4l7s 6d., inadvertently left on the kitehen table, and de camped. She was-remanded for a week in, order to complete evidence in some other charges against her. There are some singular circumstances connected with this young woman. In 1852 a great sensation was created in this town by her mother and aunt being tried on a charge- of attempting to poison her, becausaehe would not consent to support them by prostituting herself. They were convicted and sentenced to death, but subsequent inquiries into the character of their accuser led to a doubt of their guilt, and they, were pardoned. WEST DERBY GUARDIANS.—The weekly meeting was held on Wednesday, when the balance in hand was found to be £629 12s. Bd. Cheques were drawn for out-door relief, &c., to the amount of £385.35. Bd. The report received from the Visiting Committee upon the subject of the treatment of luna tics in the Workhouse, together with Dr. Nevins' report thereon, were received and adopted, and copies were ordered to be forwarded to the ,Poor-law Board. The clerk was re <quested to furnish a statement of the aggregate number of rate-payers in the 22 townships comprising the West Derby 'Union, with the valuation of property, and total Amount of assessments. Mr. R. B. Reid, surgeon, Bootle-cum-Linacre, one of the medical officers of the union, having made a com plaint to the Poor-law Board-Viat, during the late visitation of cholera, he had only been allowed 18s. 9d. per week for his extra services, instead of three_guineas, which he considered a very moderate charge for a professional gentleman at such a dangerous time, and the Poor-law Board having written -to the guardians of the union, inclosing a copy of Mr. Reid'ef-letter, and -requesting to be furnished with any observations the guardians might make upon it, -it was resolved that theelerk do inform the Poor-law Board 'they consider the amounts ample. The number of paupers relieved in the Workhouse last week was 704, being an increase of 76 on the correspond ing week in last year. The number of paupers who received out-door relief was as follows, namely :—Able-bodied, 776_; not able-bodied, 890 ; children, 1,818:: total, 3,484, showing an increase of 208 on the corresponding week in last half year. The amount expended in out-relief was £2ll 7s. 3d. THE OE4IIO-EMEN AND THE TWELFTH OF JULY.—On Thursday, the members of the different Orange lodges, in Liverpool, walked in procession in honour ofthe 12th of July. Having been forbidden to assemble within the precincts of the borough, they, by previous arrangement, agreed upon Wavertree being their head place of meeting. About half past eight o'clock in the morning the various lodges, accom panied by their bands of music, began to assemble at Waver tree -bridge. From-this point they took the route of Brook house, Smithdown-lane, where the met the different members belonging to the southern division of the town. The various lodges having been placed in order, they moved in procession towards Gateacre, Woolton, and Childwall, and about half-past one o'clock the entire body returned to "head-quarters," at Wavertree. The procession was headed by a carriage contain ing S. Burton, Esq., high sheriff of th e coun t y of Shropshire and grand master of the Orange lodges in England and Ireland. There were also several flags and banners in the procession, bearing appropriate devices, amongst the most conspicuous of which was one containing a portrait of the Rev. Dr. Mlcieile, bearing the following in scription :—" Our countryman, our Protestant defender in Church and State." A beautiful flag of "Cranmer and Latimer in prison" also attracted much attention. The different clubs separated for their respective club-houses, on arriving at the Coffee-house Hotel, in Wavertree; but pre parations had been made in the bowling green attached for an unlimited number of visitors, and about three o'clock Mr. Burton, the high sheriff of Shropshire, made his appearance amongst the company, and was loudly cheered. The chair man having addressed a few words to the meeting, Mr. Burton, the grand master, spoke at some length. He con gratulated them on the splendid display they -had that day made. He spoke at considerable length in favour of the loyal character of Orangemen, and concluded by an energetic appeal on behalf of the order. After several other speeches the company retired, but in other respects it was a great day in Wavertree, and thousands of spectators were present to witness the procession. At some twelve or fourteen houses festive gatherings were held in the evening. Cuarous QUESTION or OWNERSHIP.—A case, involving a curious legal question as to ownership, was heard at the County Court, on Friday. John Boyd and George Duncan, coopers, were plaintiffs, and John Tyson, also a cooper, in Vulcan street, was defendant. The claim was for £l5 16s. 6d., for the value of eleven water casks, of 200 gallons each. In No vember last, the plaintiffs supplied Messrs. Millers and Thomp son with thirteen water casks for the Australian ship Gold finder. There was an option on the part of Messrs. Millers and Thompson, that they might either keep or send back so many of the casks as should not be passed by the Government emigrant officer. Eleven of the casks were allowed to remain on the Prince's Dock quay until the 20th of December, when Mr. Tyson, the defendant, went to Messrs. Millers and Thomp son, and asked if he could remove the casks in payment of a previous account he had against them. Permission was given to him and he removed them. Subsequently the plaintiffs also applied to Messrs. Millers and Thompson for the casks, having been inforned what had become of them. Mr. Thomp son said they had been given to Mr. Tyson in a mistake, and wrote a letter asking him to deliver up the casks to the plain tiffs. Armed with this letter, Messrs. Boyd and Duncan ap plied to Mr. Tyson, but he refused to give up the casks, on the ground that they had been given to him by the owners in payment of an account. Messrs. Millers and Thompson be came insolvent, and could not pay the plaintiffs. The action against the defendant was grounded on the argument, that Messrs. Millers and Thompson never were the owners of the casks, and had no right to give them to defendant. The judge decided that Messrs. Millers and Thompson, not having returned the casks in a reasonable time, had decided to keep them, so became the owners, and could, therefore, dispose of them as they thought a, He gave jadgment for the defen dant, with costs. rag THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. THE NEW SHIP-11IIILDING YARDS AT BIRKENHEAD.--Mr. John Laird has already commenced active operations at his new ship-building yard at Birkenhead, between the Woodside and Monks' Ferries. On Thursday he laid the keel to a small vessel, which was in " frame" the following day, and at which a gang of men were energetically at work. Mr. Laird's yard is more advanced than the others, but in a few months the whole of the works will be completed, and will form a most interesting scene of industry. THE NEW COLLECTOR OF THE CITSTOMS.—SamneI Price Edwards, Esq., late collector of the Customs at Dublin, has been appointed collector in the port of Liverpool, in the place of Elias Arnaud, Esq., who retires into private life, after hold ing the responsible office of collector in this port for the long period of thirty-two years. We can only hope that the new collector may discharge his duties in the same courteous and liberal spirit as his predecessor, and so earn the same feelings of public respect which will accompany Mr. Arnaud into bis honourable retirement. How GOLD WATCHES Go AT THE RACES.—During the three days of the races last week, several gentlemen, more adventurous than prudent, were relieved of their gold watches, while enjoying the "sports of the turf." We have heard Of two having been taken on Wednesday, and four upon Thurs day. On the latter day a sagacious gentleman went into a booth and agreed to play a game at cards for £5. He pru dently placed his watch on the table to note time. When the game was up the watch had disappeaFed, along with his companion. In an hour or two afterwards the owner of the watch met the individual who had taken it, and charged him with the robbery. He entreated the owner not to expose him, but to let them go into a booth close by, and be would give it up. Here, however, the fellow stated that he had not got the watch on him, but he would make a purchase of it, and gave the accuser £lO. The owner refused this, however, and sent out for a policeman. In the meantime a number of the sharper's friends crowded round the booth, and jostled so that he effected his escape.—ln another case, where a gentle man reported that he had lost his watch, it was found by a police-officer on the ground close by. DISGRA.CEFITL TREATMENT OF TOWN MISSIONARIES.— There are some men who have not the slightest degree of reverence or respect for those who labour m the cause of religion, but in a most disgraceful manner insult and annoy them. On Friday, on the racecourse at Aintree, an occur rence took place which ought to draw down on those who committed the outrage condign punishment for their improper behaviour, Several of the Liverpool town missionaries, during the first two days of the races, had taken advantage of the immense concourse of people to circulate tracts, and to make remarks entirely uncontroversial in tendency. On Friday morning, at eleven o'clock, they were again pursuing their labours, when some parties, who bore the appearance of offidals on the course, induced the police-officiers to attempt to remove them by force. The missionaries very properly refused to go, and the police did not interfere further 'in 'the matter. About two o'clock,however, a gang of men, who had no doubt been organised for the purpose, fell upon the mis sionaries, threw two of them over the rails of the course, knocked a third with a stone, and cut another on the temple very severely. The proceedings of the missionaries were of the most unobnoxious character possible. MAJOR GREW AND TEE ORANGEMEN.—WiIIiam Harkness and James Hampton were brought up at the Police-court, on Friday, under the following circumstances,: dilicerLeahy stated that he was on duty the previous dayin Wavertree-road, when he observed the prisoner Harkness coming over the bridge; be had an orange flag in his hand and was wearing an orange sash; they took him into custody fearing a breach of the peace would be committed. In Paddingiton a mob col lected, and he was assaulted; the prisoner Hampton was in the mob, and he Attempted to rescue the other prisoner. —Major Greig was in :attendance in court, and -said he was much pleased to bear testimony to the geed•conduct of the Orange men on the previous day. He had had 'Communications with the officers of 'the Orange Lodges, andle was assured by them that every measure would be taken on their parts to preserve the peace Of tie town, and he had been informed that very stringent=resolutions had been passedin'the lodges, with heavy fines attached, to any one offending. He was glad to say 'it had saved his men from long and harassing duties, which they wouldhave had to undergo hadit:not been for such prestu tions. Under these circumstances,'hntwould recommend 'the prisoners to the merciful consideratioa of the bench, as hedid not wish to press the charge •against them.—Mr. Mansfield said lt'was evident there was no disposition on the part'of the authorities to interfere with them, so long as they conducted themsilves in a proper manner.; but they must be well aware thatit.was necessary for their own - safety, as well •las 'that of others, that the quiet of the town should not be disturbed. LIVELIXOOL AND BIJOU/MEI:AD DOCK BILLS.—The select committee appointed by the House of Lords to try the merits of the arkenhead and Liverpool Docks (Trust Property of Birkenhead Dock Trustees) Bill, and the Liverpool Docks Bill,• met in the Painted Chaniber of the House of Lords, on Wednesday, the Marquis of 'Winchester in the , thair. The other members of the committee were the Earl of Pontefract, Lord. Colchester, Lord Faveraham, and Lord .Portman. Mr. Serjeant Wrangham opened the case for the first bill, which he explained to the committee as having been mach considered in the House of Commons. The object of the balms to enable the docks at Birkenhead and Liverpool to be 'united under onegeneral management, a , meastre which wotild secure great public advantages in more respects than one. The learned sergeant went at length ,into the arrangement which has been =made for paying off Ihe creditors of the Birkenhead property.—Mr. Ewart, the .tx-Depnty-Chainnan of the Bir kenhead Docks, Mr. Tollemache, M.P. for South Cheshire, and '4Daptain. Evans, Acting Conservator of the Mersey, gave evidence in support of the amalgamation, believing that it would greatly benefit the trade and commerce of the country generally, and Liverpool, Lancashire, and Cheshire in particu lar.—:Evidence was then put in as to the financial condition Of the Birkenhead Dock Trust and the Birkenhead Dock Com pany. This evidence was called for by Mr. James, Q.C., who, with other learned counsel, appeared for the opponents- of the bill ; but similar evidence•was given over and over again in the Commons, and, therefore, it is unnecessary to repeat it. The opposition came from Messrs. Gandy, Bibby and others, who object to the arrangement which gives one set a creditors a preference over the others. Mr. Edward James, Q.C., Mr. Johnson., and Mr. Forshaw, were heard on behalf of the oppo nonts.—The case being closed for the promoters of the bill, Mr.. Johnson addressed the -committee for Mr. Gandy, con tending that the bargain for-the transfer of Birkenhead• was .very bad one, and that his , elient ought to be relieved from its obligations. This closed-the proceedings, as no witnesses were called by the opposers of the bill ; and Mr. James, %Who appeared for Mr. Lawton, did not address,the committee. GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.

THE,case of Strahan, Paul, and Bates•.was again heard at Bow-street Police-office, on Wednesday, when the prisoners were further remanded for another week. Application for bail was made, but refused. DECIMAL eolNAGOL—Government, says , the Times, are stated to have resolved upon appointing a commission to in quire into the subject .of decimal coinage, to be<composed of Lord Monteagle, Mr. Hubbard, and Mr. Norman. Mr. RIISEEIII, Gun n i and Mr. O'Malley have given their opinion that under the act 52 Geo. 111. cap. 156, , members of the Church of England, as well as dissenters, may protect themselves from penalties by registering their houses as places of religious worship, incompliance with the terms of the act. MRS. ISIBEILA. Sruirriu-Eu, wife of Mr. M. Spraiuger, of Ramsey, Isle of Man, and who had been residing 'for some time past with her sister at Larey, committed :suicide, on Monday last, by suspending herself from a beam in the bed room. _ _ AT THE STAFFORDSHIRE SESSIONS, last week, a man and woman were charged with stealing £7O from a horse dealer •at a fair at Leek. The man, no was acquitted, had been in gaol sixteen times within ten years ; and the woman, who was sentenced to fourteen years' penal servitude, had been in prison eight times. A COLLISION occurred on Tuesday evening, near the Rose grave station of the East Lancashire Railway, and a short distance from Burnley, occasioned'by a passenger train from Accrington to Colne running into a goods train. The van of the luggage train and a waggon, loaded with iron, were smashed *to pieces, but no serious personal injury was sustained. FATkL QUARREL IN AN AMERICAN SHIP AT BALACLAVA. —From aletter received from Balaclava, on the 26th ult., we learn that a tragedy, attended with fatal results, occurred on board the American ship Arlington. One of the men, in an altercation with the mate, struck him, when the latter armed himself with a pistol, and discharged its contents into the chest of the unfortunate man. This wanton abuse of power occurred at an anchorage where there were upwards of flay sail to render assistance in - case of mutiny. FEARFUL TarrrnEasTonm.---On Tuesday afternoon Not tingham and the immediate neighbourhood were visited by a terrible thunderstorm, which lasted for nearly three hours, raging during that time with remarkable violence. The rain fell in torrents, accompanied by hailstones of a very large size. The storm commenced about three o'clock, and con tinued, with very little intermission, until six. In Bilbie street, and in other parts of the town walls were washed down, and considerable damage done. A great amount of damage has been sustained in the fields contiguous to the river Trent, by the loss of stock, &c. There has not been so great a fall of rain for some time past. ORDER OF AFFILIATION ON A ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIEST. —The County Justices in Quarter Sessions were on Wednes day occupied at Durham in hearing an appeal made by the Rev. Richard Singleton, a Roman Catholic priest, against an order made against him by the borough magistrates of that town for the support of an illegitimate child. The mother is Miss Beatrice Jane Jones, the daughter of a Church of Eng land clergyman residing at Douglas, Isle of Man. Various proceedings have taken place in the case, but the result of the investigation on Wednesday was that the county magistrates confirmed the previous order, directing Mr. Singleton to pay 2s. 6d. per week during 13 years for the maintenance of the child. . . _ - A STATEMENT has been issued by Mr. James Low, from which it appears that the shipments of specie from England to India, China, Egypt, and Malta for the half year just ended have been £2,514,006, of which, £396,847 consisted of gold, and £2,117,169 of silver. As compared with the cor responding half of 1864, this shows an increase of £140,992, although the total export was then unusually large. The proportion of gold, however, is smaller in the present return. The sum included in the aggregate total as having been sent to China this half year is £833,466, of which all but £140,624 was silver. In the first six months of 1854 the total sent to China was £1,289,648. The recent augmentation in the ship ments to the East, has, therefore, been caused exclusively by the Indian demand. NEWSPAPERS POE THE BRITISH COLONIES AND FOREIGN COUNTRIES.—The following notice has been issued from the General Post-office :—" Many newspapers for British colonies and foreign countries having been posted unpaid, contrary to the Printed Instructions, No. 45, 1855, recently issued upon the subject, the Postmaster-General thinks it necessary to repeat the intimation that a postage (the amount of which can be ascertained by an inspection of the notice No. 16, at any post-o ffi ce) is now required to be pre-paid, in addition to the newspaper stamp, upon all newspapers sent to the British Colonies, and upon those sent to all foreign countries except the n following, namely,—France or Algeria, Belgium, Prussia via Belgium, and any foreign country (except Turkey) via Belgium and Prussia, New Granada, Peru, Any newspapers which may be posted without the requisite pre-payment, can• not be forwarded to their destination." PINNOCK, who murdered the old man at Rothwell, last week, has been tried and convicted at Northampton, and sen tenced to death. ONE hundred and two walking sticks were last week sold, among the miscellaneous effects of a gtntleman, recently de ceased, at Lancaster. Game TRADE IN THE DANUBE. — Letters from Constanti nople to the 28th of June report the arrival there, during the preceding five days, from Brailow and Galatz of as many as 91 cargoes of grain, and the departure for those and other Danubian ports, to load similar cargoes, of no less than 53 other vessels. EVESHAM ELECTION: 1 UNIVERSAL REPRESENTATIVE.-- The nomination took place on Wednesday at the Town-hall ; Mr. Holland was the only candidate, the two others having previouslyretired. Mr. Holland was declared duly elected. In returning thanks he said he was for a vigorous prosecution of the war, and not only of the war, but of everything right and just, whether at home or abroad. He was not a member for any particular class of politicians, but for every class, for every elector, and every non-elector, DISTRESSING OCCURRENCE. — Two young ladies, the daugh ters of J. H. Rees, Esq., of Carmarthen, were bathing, on Saturday, on the shore, near their father's house, when, having ventured too far, they sank in a pool about ten feet in depth. Their governess, who was with them, rushed to their rescue, and, failing to save, died with them. Mr. Rees was hastily summoned from a meeting which he was attending at the church, and on coming out, the first objects which met his gaze were the lifelessbodies of his children and governess, which were being borne along to his house. REPRESENTATION OF THE CITY.—We understand that a movement is now being made, with the view of gettieg up a requisition, calling on Lord John Russell and Baron Rothschild to resign their seats for the city. The ground on which Lord John is to be called on to resign is, that he grossly misrepre sents the sentiments of his constituents on the question of the war ; while the reason which is to be urged for the resignation of the Baron, is, that he does not represent them at all. There is, we are assured, a large and influential party in the city, who are determined that it shall be hereafter efficiently represented in the House of Commons. — Advertiser. EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE OF THE CREW OF A STEAMTDG AT SHIELDS.—The Welsh, a tug steamer belonging to Sun derland, brought a foreign schooner into Shields from sea on Tuesday, and after seeing her moored, the master of the steamer went on board the schooner to get his towage. He had not been on board the schooner above a minute, and the other two men belonging to her were standing forward in the steamer, when her boiler exploded with fearful violence. In an instant it blew everything in the cabin to pieces, and forced out the stern and after deck. The boat immediately sank, but, strange to say, the two men were rescued without having sustained the least injury. The steamer hag since been raised, and it is found that her engine is all twisted and de stroyed. Tirosu who have implicit faith in the universal " honour of the English Tradesman, and a fortiori of " the British Banker," may be surprised to hear a story which is current in commercial - circles, and is as well authenticated as it is gene rally believed. A highly-respected London banker, on his death-bed, called his chidren round him, and asked them if they believed in his *reputed wealth ? They answered that they shared the general opinion as to his large fortune, and he then surprised them by the assurance that he had been inse}'ent for the last thirty years. lie, however, entreated them not to be depressed by the intelligence; but recom mended them to go 'to Doctor's Commons immediately after his decease and swear his property under half a million. The advice was taken. The customers of The house were agreeably 'edified on hearing of the enormous wealth of the late partner, and the bank was firmer than ever, in the opinion of those 'who trusted their money to its keeping. STOLEN' £5OO NOTE.-1 tommunication has been Teceivedfromene of the jury who were supposed tohave given a verdict for the plaintiff in the 'Court of Common Pleas, at Guildhall, on Tuesday last, in an action brought on behalf of M. St. Ilattl, , a money-changer inTaris, against 'the Bank of England, tovecover a £5OO bank note, forming one of those stolen from Messrs. Brown, Shipley, and Co., to the effect that the jury dill not intend to express, and had by no means arrived at a conclusion favourable te'the right of the plaintiff. The feeling Of'a large portion of 'them, at Jeast, is stated to have beenthnt M. St. Paul, having received notice of the robbery, and having wilfully disregarded it, or, at all events, having adopted 110 steps to give effect to it, could not be considered to have taken the note boaNde. The question is one of so much moment as to make it important that the aw should not be - settled on a _misunderstanding of the intention of the jury, and hence it is deemed essential that their views should be ascertained on the point more clearly than appears to have been possible in the hurried manner in which their verdict vraataken.— Times. POLICY OP Priussm.—According to the Berlin correspond . out of the Times, the opinion prevalent in that capital is "that the Prussian Royal Family and the Court are bound hand and foot, and sold body and soul to Russia." He adds : "The before-mentioned view is based on the fact of a Prussian Princess being theAconsort of the Emperor of Russia who was reigning at the time of this conflict being brought about by 'him, on the very strong presumption of there being a power ful party at Court here imbued with Russian sympathies, and 'the patent fact that Prussia has not'openly and actively joined ma in the struggle against Russia. The three facts are cor rect, but the imputed cause of Prussia's policy is incorrect; there are so many perfectly valid reasons, military, financial, political, and economical, to withhold Prussia from taking a forward part in the war, however ,convinced King, Ministers, and people may be of the necessity of profiting by the present opportunity of asserting the independence of the country, that we have no need to suppose feelings of brotherly affection on the part of the King, or political sympathies for Russia on the part of certain members of the Court, to have been more than subordinate accessories in deterniining the course that Prussia has hitherto taken." ANECDOTE -•OP xnu QUEEN.—A few days ago, in the beautiful little cemetery of Rose Bank, our attention was directed to a handsome monument of Aberdeen granite, having the following inscription in letters of gold:—" Sacred to the memory of Miss Ida `Benanomi, the faithful and esteemed dresser of Queen Victoria, who departed this life October 15,:14, in the thirty-seventh year of her age, be loved and respected by all who knew her. This stone has been placed by-Queen Victoria as a mark of her regard." On inquiry we found that one day, whether in the autumn of 1854 or at a former period we were not told, when Miss Be nanomi -was accompanying Queen Victoria in her morning walk on Arthur's Seat, she called her Majesty's attention to the beautiful, cemetery in the distant valley, and expressed a wish that when she died she might be buried there. Last year, when 'her Majesty was _going north, Miss Benanomi, who, as usual,-was attending her royal mistress, became in disposed in Holyrood Palace, and .was unable to proceed fur ther. By order of Her Majesty, Miss Benanomi was attended by an eminent ;physician, but she never recovered, and died in Holyrood Palace. Her Majesty -was deeply affected by the death, and, remembering the vvishof Miss Benanomi, ordered the remains to he buried in Rose Bank Cemetery, and the monument with the inscription quoted to be erected to her memory.—Caledsnian Mercury.--tßose Bank Cemetery is in a suburb immediately to- the south of Edinburgh-1 A REMARICA.BLE MAN.—This city-is now the home of one of the most remarkable men of the age—a man who has tra versed the civilized globe, and established in almost every country which he has visited the sale of his medicines for the relief of human suffering, and which are a certain cure for disease in all its forms. We allude to Professor Thomas Holloway, of London. It is now several years since this !benefactor of the human race first proclaimed to the world, •through the British press, that he had, after deep research, pre pared a remedy that was sure to eradicate disease. Years of patient investigation irate-the laws of human physiology which ,control our bodies in health and when diseased, led to the in vention and preparation of the world-renowned Holloway's ,Pills and Ointment. Nearly, if not quite, one half of the haman race have taken his medicines ! His name is as uni versely known over the globe as that of Alexander, Napoleon, or Washington, when in the height of their ambitious career. if they conquered nations on the field of battle, Professor Holloway has, with no weapon but that of science, conquered disease in all its forms. His meritorious career is bounded by no imaginary lines of latitude and longitude short of those marking the confines of civilization itself. No isolated country or nation was sufficiently extensive for the operation of his enterprising and gigantic intellect. Wherever disease has a residence, there he has penetrated with his medicines, and left an enviable and enduring reputation. After enlightening Europe, his fame spread over Asia, and the civilized portions of Africa, and finally appeared in America. He has translated the cures he has performed, and the virtues of his medicines, into as many languages as the missionaries have the Bible. Governments, otherwise the most despotic, have been forced by the great value of his medicines, and their popularity with the people, to remove antiquated and time-honored restrictions upon the introduction of foreign medicines, and open their custom houses to a free introduction to the Pills and Oint ment, of this distuingished man. Empires and kingdoms removed the barriers of ages against the introduction and sale of proprietary or patent medicines, and freely permitted Hollo way's medicines to become the physician of the masses.—New York Dispatch. TRIAL FOR MOBBING AND RIOTING.-At the High Court of Justiciary Edinburgh, on Monday last, four young men were placed at the bar charged with mobbing and rioting, and with assault and injury to property, at Greenock, on the 2d of April last, on which occasion a large mob assembled in front of the Roman Catholic Chapel there, beat in the doors with a large beam, broke the windows with stones, and committed other damage to the chapel, as well as to the school and the adjoin ing dwelling-houses of the priest and teacher. In sum ming up the evidence, the Lord Justice-General laid down the law as to participating in or giving countenance to riotous acts. He said,— All those who were in the mob and who took an active part in it were guilty of the whole proceedings of that mob generally. The jury returned a verdict of guilty of mobbing and rioting against the prisoners, but not of participating in the acts of assault and injury libelled. The Lord - Justice-General, after stating that the Court were disposed, from extenuating circumstances in each case, to treat the prisoners with leniency, said,—" You must not suppose that you are punished because of the particular object you had in view, as being connected with any following out of the religious opinions which you yourselves entertain in opposition to those of the persons whose property was to be sacrificed by these proceedings. It is not because you entertain particular, opinions, or because you maintain those opinions with zeal, that we are going to pronounce a sentence upon you, neither is it because of any particular favour to the religious opinions of those whose property has been assailed. In this country all parties, all subjects of the Queen, all who are residing within the range of the laws, are amenable to the laws, and entitled to the protection which they afford. We know no distinction of religious parties in any question of this kind. In this country all persons are entitled not only to enter tain what religious opinions they please, but to profess those opinions, and to worship according to their own faith, whatever it may be. Be they Jews or Gentiles, Pagans or Christians, Papists or Protestants, Episcopalians or Presbyterians, it is all the same. The law says that they have a right to worship after their own fashion, and that law will protect them in the exercise of this right. Therefore you must not suppose, and no persons must suppose, that we enter into the religious question here; but while we hear rumours of persecutions for religious opinions in other countries, and are inclined to sympathize with the sufferers, and to feel indigna tion at the conduct of the oppressors, it would be very wrong indeed if in this country which boasts of being a land of liberty, where persons are entitled to freedom of conscience without any restraint, except that which conscience itself imposes, any proceeding which involves violence against parties on account of their religious opinions should be permitted to go unpunished. While the law permits them to have liberty, those who administer the law must take care that that liberty is pre served to them, and not abused by the strong. It is because yot have violated that law, and for no other reason, that we now pronounce sentence of imprisonment upon you." His Lordship then sentenced three of the riotere to Oa, and one to three menthe imprisonment, _ MR. BERKELEY has been returned for Cheltenham by a majority of 682 over Mr. Ridler. ON Friday evening a lomotive engine, employed on the North- London Railway, exploded; but though it destroyed some property, no persons were injured. Tax COLONIAL S ECR ETARYSHIP.—THE Advertiser says Sir William Molesworth and Sir George Grey are spoken of for the colonial vacancy. The Herald says Mr. Vernon Smith, Sir Wm. Molesworth, and Lord Harrowby are mentioned. ' THE Qum, accompanied by Prince Albert, the King of tha Belgians, the Count de Flanders, the Prince of Wales, and Prince Alfred, attended by their suite, left Buckingham Palace on Tuesday, for Osborne. DURING a debate in the House of Lords last week, no little sensation was caused by the entry into the house of Sir Au gustus Clifford, bearing on his arm the celebrated Miss O'Neil, now Lady Wrixon Becher. THE Advertiser states that a meeting of Conservative members of the House of Commons took place on Saturday, at Mr Disraeli's. The attendance was very numerous, and never was the feeling of the party more cordial and unani mous as to the course to be pursued by it. THE SPECIE arrivals during the week have been moderate, and do not amount to £185,000. The exports of which we have any notification are little more than £60,000, but the shipments to the Continent by the bullion merchants have been considerable. Orr Tuesday morning the corning-house at Messrs. Curtis and Harvey's Clyde Gunpowder Mills, Glenlean, about five miles from Dunoon, blew up with a fearful explosion, by which casualty the lives of not fewer than four men have been lost. COLONEL FLEURY, the colonel of the French Guides, has married Mad'lle Calais St. Paul, a daughter of a rich homme d'affaires of Paris. On this occasion the Emperor made the colonej the munificent present of 500,000 franks from his private purse, and also settled' a pension of 12,000 franks a-year, to make things pleasant, to a lady who went down on her knees to supplicate his Majesty to prevent the marriage. MILITARY DISTURBINCE.—The town of Chatham, on Thursday evening, exhibited a scene of military riot, between the marines and sailors against the 27th regiment. Several of the soldiers were wounded in the affray, and one man was so severely injured that he was taken to the hospital, having received three bayonet wounds. SCARLATINA IN THE ROYAL HOUSEHOLD AT OSBORNE.— Their Royal Highnesses Princess Louisa and Prince Arthur have been attacked with scarlatina. Their Royal Highnesses are going on very favourably. The same disease has declared itself in his Royal Highness Prince Leopold, who was left at Buckingham Palace in consequence of a slight accident. THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES.—The work for the next Presidental election has seriously commenced. The political events have sharply defined the three great par ties of the campaign, and the champion of each for the suc cession. These three parties are—the American party, the Seward anti-slavery coalition party, and the Democratic party; and the candidate of each, as broadly foreshadowed by these late events, is, of the American party, George Law, of New York ; of the Seward coalition party, W. H. Seward, of New York ; of the Democratic party, Henry A. Wise, of Virginia. THE GRAND STAND AT AINTREE RACE-COURSE was, during the late meeting, entrusted to the care of Mr. Morrish, of the Merchants' Dining Rooms, Lancaster-buildings, Tithe barn-street. The care and judicious attention bestowed on the cuisine and the cellar were such as called forth the warmest encomiums from the numerous visitors ; while the orderly and ready service bestowed on the guests reflected the highest credit on the skill and assiduity of Mr. Morrish as a caterer for even the most refined tastes. Every delicacy was to be met with -in ready profusion, and the more substantial elements of good cheer were served with equal alacrity and abundance. The wines and liquors of all kinds were excellent, and met general approval. 1 TRE DANUEE.—A letter from Bucharest of the 3d, in the German Journal of Frankfort, says :—" The Ottoman troops are still advancing into the Dobrudscha. From 1,200 to 1,500 Turks from Silistria have passed the Danube in boats, and landed at Kalarasch. Although the Turkish corps now in the' .Dobrudscha are sufficiently provided with bridge equipage, and is supported by a flotilla, aud, although the coast of Bes sarabia is only defended by about 10,000 Russians, yet it is not expected that the Muchir Ismail Pasha has any present intention of attacking the Russians. He appears inclined to wait for the fall of Sebastopol, in which case he would doubt , less be supported by some allied troops. The greatest com mercial activity prevails on the Lower Danube. It is calculated that, since the opening of the navigation, more than 500. vessels, of which 200 were Austrian, have taken on board cargoes at Ibrail and at Galatz." THE LATE CAPTAIN LYONS.—The enclosed extract from a letter from one of the officers of the Miranda may be interest ing to our readers 1—" Therapia, June 25.—Our brave Captain is no more. His wound was mortal, and he died on Saturday night. C— was with him the whole time, and S— says his death was worthy of his life. He forgot nothing, sending messages to each of us individually, and arranging for the smallest trifles. He said to C—, I die as a captain of a man-of-war ought to die.' The navy has lost its greatest ornament ; and we have lost one who, to us, was more than a friend. He was so brave, so great, so good, and so amiable, that we all loved him much more than we knew. We buried. him on Monday evening, the 26th of June, with all naval honours. Crowds of people of high rank attended his funeral. The head of our figurehead, Miranda, was shot away almost at the same moment that our dear captain received his death wound. FIRE IT HUNGERFORD-MAHRET.-011 Sunday evening considerable alarm was caused in the vicinity of Hungerford market, London, in consequence of a fire breaking out on the wharf of the market, occasioned by some boys accidentally emptying their pipes on a waggon laden with straw. On the sudden outbreak messengers were despatched for the Chandos street, Watling-street, West of England, and various other engines, which promptly arrived, and speedily got to work, with a good supply of water from the mains of the New River. The, wind blowing strongly, the flames spread with amazing rapidity, and five carts and one waggon belonging to Mr. Mil igan, hay and strawdealer, opposite the booking-office, on the wharf, as well as Mr. T. Henderson's carts, speedily ignited. The firemen worked most strenuously, and by of great perseverance the flames were subdued, but not until the straw and carts were nearly destroyed. Loan Joitig RvssELL.—Lord John Russell is no longer a member of the Administration. In consequence of repre sentations from some of the members of the Government in the House of Commons as to the difficulty under which they laboured with regard to the motion of Sir E. B. Lytton, his Lordship came to the resolution of removing their embarrass ment by retiring from the Ministry. Accordingly, at his re quest, Lord Palmerston yesterday acquainted the Queen with the resolution to which Lord John had come, and her Majesty was pleased to accept his resignation. No successor to Lord John Russell as Secretary of State for the Colonies has been appointed, but it is not improbable that one will be desig nated for her Majesty's approval at the Cabinet Council to be held this afternoon. We cannot, of course, speak with cer tainty upon the subject, but we believe it is not unlikely that the new Colonial Secretary will be taken from amongst the present members of the Cabinet, and we apprehend that his fitness for the post will be at once recognized by the country and the eolonies.—Globe, of Saturday. THUNDERSTORM ON SATURDAY.—ShortIy after 6 o'clock on Saturday morning, the metropolis was visited by a violent thunderstorm, which continued for nearly an hour. The lightning was of a vivid character. The rain fell in torrents, and many of the small streets at the east end of London were flooded for several hours. The market gardeners' grounds were also inundated, and considerable damage was done by the great fall of rain. At Bristol the storm took place an hour or two previously. It commenced about half-past three o'clock, and exceeded in violence anything of the kind that has occurred in that city for the last 30 years. The thunder was very violent, and the lightning so vivid that the Captains of African and Indian ships in the port describe it as being the nearest approach to a tropical tornado that they ever witnessed in this country. Considerable damage was done by the hail, which beat the wheat down in all the surrounding country, and broke thousands of panes of glass; and at St. George's,Gloucestershire,the electric fluid struck a house near the Don John's-cross, destroyed the chimneys, and split the house from the roof to the basement story. SUNDAY DISTURBANCES IN LONDON. HYDE-PARK.— The Sunday demonstrations in this park are unmistakably dying out, and in another week or two there will be no trace left of the commotion. On Sunday the number of people assembled showed a decided falling off, and the more respectable classes held themselves carefully apart from • the crowds of urchins and thieves who had collected. Of course, they did all in their power to get up a disturbance, rushing hither and thither, making as much noise as possible, and scurrying away as soon as they came in collision with the police. Beyond a con siderable amount of pocket-picking very little mischief was done, and the number of offenders taken into custody tended powerfully to check the disposition to riot. The police did not show in the park itself, but at the different outlets and in the neighbourhood they were mustered in ample force, while a mounted patrol kept up with the quick movements of the mob, and prevented any serious injury to property being at tempted. No carriages appeared in the drive, so that no fa cilities existed for getting up a disturbance, and we may fairly hope that next Sunday afternoon the park will present its usual peaceable aspect. Two attempts were made by the rabble to penetrate into Belgravia from Albert-gate, but both were promptly repulsed by the police, and the ringleaders ar rested. STATE OP TEE MORMON COMMUNITY.—The Cambridge Chronicle gives a letter from Salt Lake City by a woman who had embraced the Mormon delusion, and left that neighbour hood. The expos 6 speaks for itself :—" Mormonism here and Mormonism in the old country are two entirely distinct systems. You know not whom to trust; in fact, you are sus picious of everybody, and everybody suspects you. Human life is of no value here ; cutting throats is as carelessly talked of from the stand as clipping your finger-nails ; indeed, if they consider you becoming at all disaffected to their 'principles, it is considered doing you a kindness to kill you, that your soul may be saved. It is heresy to think of leaving the society ; and should any make the attempt, every obstacle is thrown in their way. Scandal and lies the people fatten on. I would defy the smallest village in the world to propagate the same with more avidity than this people. A woman's character is taken away by the slightest breadth ; you are at everybody's mercy, no matter how low, mean, or contemptible the party may be ; and woe to you should your husband be on a mission! They set husband against wife : try to get the husband into plurality; and women's hearts are as ruthlessly broken as a piece of straw by bending. Divorces can be readily obtained, for from five to ten dollars; and there exists not, I verily be e' i i e c v k e e , n a s e d s b p e i l r i e t v l e e ss i n a set G o o f d w , o a m m e n o re o n m the i se f r a a c b e l e, of ebroken, earth-hear t h t e a d n those who drag out a miserable existence in this veritable Utah. There isno employment by which a delicate woman can support herself, though all are expected to do so; they s help ak to e o s a h p e , a c r a s ii h w eep : es unload in h t a h y e , c l h ot o s p a w n o d o g d a , r in de a ns ke , s p h l o a e n s t ;ta so il w or , raise babi e s cake s,(one hoein twenty-seven potatoes, cut corn,m ol molasses, s i e r s r , feed irrigate i months is the allotted time), besides attending to the no les s essential . points,in a house, viz., washing, scrubbing, and cook ing; the latter item is by no means an unimportant one in a Yankee household, as Yankee Doodle must have tea three times a day, and hot bread at each meal. The United States sent out a detachment of men in the fall, ostensibly en route to California, but' really to investigate the many crying atroci ties in this horrible place. There has been a slight intermix ture with the officers and our people in society ; but I think Brigham was afraid of their influence, and at once, without any preliminiaries, they were denounced from the stand in the most bitter terms ; and so general was the insult that the commanding officers ordered the United States flag to be taken down. Happy as I should be to save others from the degrada tion and misery of this evil place, I dare not have my name known, or my head would pay the forfeit; and they would think they were doing God and me service. Although I have lost all desire for life, I should dread falling into their hands ; for verily the tortures of the Inquisition were nothing to those they inflict here, and in the end I should be consigned to a horrible decapitation."

SALE CATTECH.—The Lord Bishop of Chester has renewed the license for the performance of divine service in this church for another year. It is expected however that the necessary preliminaries to consecration will be very shortly completed, and that this important ceremony will not be long delayed.

OPEN-AIR PREACHING.—The Rev. B. Addison, Rector of Collyhurst, Manchester, is carrying on open-air preaching in his district with increasing success. THE Bishop of London has interdicted a sacred concert in one of the churches of the metropolis, in aid of the school and organ funds, on the ground of the "indecency of making any charge to an edifice devoted to Divine worship, according to the forms of the Established Church."

It has an elegantly-pierced round stand, bearing the crest of the reverend gentleman, and inscription—" Presented to the Rev. Holland Lomas, 8.A., by the Candidates for Con firmation belonging to Holy Trinity Church, Walton Breck, as a mark of their affectionate esteem. Liverpool, A.D., June, 1855." THE INCUMBENCY of GREAT CROSBY. IN the York Ecclesiastical Court on Tuesday, the case of Myers v. Clarke was heard. Mr. Blanchard was advocate, and Mr. Mills proctor for the promoter, and Mr. Shepherd was advocate, and Messrs. Lawton, sen., and W. Lawton, were proctors for the defendant. This suit was brought by letters of request from the diocese of Chester, the office of the judge being promoted by John Myers, Esq., of Crosby-house, Great Crosby, near Liverpool, against the Rev. .Toseph Clark, of Lunt, in the parish of Sefton, in Lancashire, of which parish he is now curate, under the Rev. R. Rainshaw Rothwell, the rector, and had been so for twenty-five years. From the statement of Mr. Blanchard, it appeared that Mr. Clarke had been presented to the incumbency of Great Crosby, and that rumours having reached the ears of Mr. Myers, one of the principal inhabitants of that place, respecting Mr. Clark's alleged propensity for intoxicating liquours, he felt it his duty to bring the matter before the court. It had been admitted that the clerk, Thomas Williams, had a public-house, near the church-yard, and that the custom had been for the clergy man to go there before and after christenings and funerals, and take a glass of spirits, or something of that kind. A general charge was made, and particular instances were ad duced by the witnesses in which, during the years 1853 and 1854, the defendant was said to have been in a state of drunkenness, and had staggered to and fro. Mr. Blanshard, therefore,• prayed that Mr. Clark might be canonically cor rected. Mr. SHEPHERD, in praying that his client might be dis missed from this suit, delivered a long address. He would say, with unbounded confidence, that whilst this was one of the most painful cases a court could investigate, it was a case in which there was not the slightest ground or foundation for the charge which had been made. He denied there was any truth in the allegation brought against the defendant, and one of the parties who had given publicity to the accusa tion had been decided by a jury to have been guilty of slander. He lamented that Mr. Myers had not applied to the Bishop to have a commission appointed to inquire into this matter, by which an enormous expense and great delay might have been avoided, and he also regretted that Mr. Myers had not done something by way of atonement for the charge which had been preferred. Mr. Shepherd then went through the whole of the evidence, noticing the great amount of testimony there was to rebut the accusation of intemperance, besides that of the defendant himself, and to prove that, except at the christening of his eldest child, when he became, unintention ally, a little elevated, he had invariably being an abstemious and temperate man. It was also shown he was a zealous, amiable, and kind-hearted man— a man , as one o f t h e witnesses described it, in whom there was no guile —a man who was generally loved and esteemed in his parish —a man in whose religious teaching his parishioners had confidence, and one who was constant in his attendance upon the sick. He was a person, however, of a curious and staggering gait whilst walk ing, which might give rise to the impression that he was in liquor when he was perfectly sober, and he frequently had a swimming in the head after he had been preaching. He had' likewise a scorbutic affection in the face, which did not arise from drinking. These circumstances might have given the witnesses a colourable reason for having fallen into the mis take which they had done. Mr. Blanshard having replied, the Chancellor, after stating his reasons at some length for having come to the concision he had done, dismissed the case, leaving both parties to pay their own costs. A nomination had, previous to these proceedings, been pre• sented to the Bishop of Chester, through Mr. Brabner, Mr. Clark's solicitor. COURT AND FASHION. Hmt MAJESTY has appointed Miss Fanny Cathcart, second surviving daughter of the late Sir George Cathcart, to be one of her Maids of Honour. TITE visit of his Majesty the King of the Belgians to this country will, it is understood, be prolonged to the end of the present week. HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO PARIS, which had at first been intended to take place on the 2nd of August, is now defini tively fixed for the 17th. Parliament will, of course, be prorogued before Her Majesty's departure. MR. PUSEY, of Pusey, formerly M.P. for Berks, died at his brother's residence, Christ Church, Oxford, on Tuesday after noon, after an illness of several months' duration. The Puseys are said to have been settled at Pusey prior to the Conquest, and to have held that estate by cornage or the service of a horn, under a grant of Canute. Camden and Fuller mention this circumstance. The horn is still preserved at Pusey. AN INCIDENT TO ROYALTY.—Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent embarked from Southampton docks, on Friday, on board the Fairy, Captain Crispin. Just as her Royal Highness embarked an incident occurred which caused some little sensation and amusement. A respectably-dressed elderly gentleman, wearing a profusion of rings, evidently of great value, and carrying a cane, the top of which was set g w a i n th gw h a u y g i e nto pr t ec he io F us air s: ,, o s n ta es, tin m g a. t ) h e a st t ically walked he hadapresendtowfn for the the Sir George eo w rg h e ieh " cou h p e er w ,s ish a e tt d en p t r i e o s n en u te as d b i t h a e n hr l a y u g d u r a s t w n m o t t o h e t r. h e circumstance, who politely bowed the gentleman ashore, inti mating that he must take some other method of communicating with the Queen. The gentleman, much chagrined, retired into one of the offices of the docks, and calling for pen, ink, and paper, hastily wrote a letter, which he declared he would immediately post to Osborne ; and, having sealed it with a seal of no mean dimensions, left the scene of his eccentricities avowedly for that purpose. DEATH OF REAR-ADMIRAL SIR W. E. PARRY.—This distinguished and most estimable officer, born in 1790, died at Ems, in Germany, on Sunday week, at half-past ten. He had held the post of Lieut.-Governor of Greenwich Hospital since the 19th December, 1853, and while in that institution gained the universal esteem and respect of all with 'whom he was associated. In every relation of life he was exemplary. As the commander of four Arctic expeditious he gained high pro fessional renown, and as a parent and Christian Was equally estimable. The following epitome of his services is from the " New Navy List :"—Sir W. E. Parry, mid, of Vanguard, in the Baltic, engaged with Danish gun-boats, 1808.9.

THE QUEEN AT ALDERSHOT. —The Queen paid her first public visit to the encampment at Aldershot, on Tuesday. Her Majesty was accompanied by the King of the Belgians, the Prince Consort, and their royal highnesses the Prince of Wales and Prince Alfred. Her Majesty first drove through the Guard's quarters, and after making the circuit of this portion of the encampment, ascended the elevated plateau opposite Caesars' camp, where the whole of the troops at present en camped were drawn up in review order. After Her Majesty had passed along the line, the royal party took up a position near the flag staff, on the saluting point, while the several regiments marched past in review order. As soon as the troops had defiled past, the Queen proceeded to the open w ground where the various regiments formed in sou her majesty an opportunity of conferring the Alma and Inkerman on three gallant men whose bravery at se rgeants at Alder has led to their appointment as barrack loth R • 'dine of the o Regiment, shot.
