AT NICE danger, abandoned, and by their conspirations and treachery, hastened the downfall of their sovereign, to whom they swore fidelity for life. When will kings become men to judge of men ? What a lesson for Princes, and the world in general, does the above subject offer for our reflection. Let it be said to the eternal honour of General Bosco, a man who received fewer favours from the father of the fallen monarch than any other general of the Neapolitan army, that he is the only officer of rank that has remained faithful to Francis 11. in all his troubles. The great Italian hero entered Naples on the evening of the 7th instant, amid the acclamations of the people ; but I am told not so enthusiastic as that which marked his reception at Palermo and Messina. Garibaldi has thus accomplished the half of one of the most magnificent under takings that was ever achieved by a simple Citizen ; a man who boldly grasped the national flag -of his country, and with a mere handful of noble spirits, declared never to lay down their swor - ds until the - y had liberated their country from the despotic governments of Naples and Vienna. Let us hope that the Italians, by their union and persevering zeal, will not abuse their present good fortune, or neglect those prepara tions which are so necessary to hold what the valour of Garibaldi.has already achieved. There is much still to be dote before Italy is entirely. free, and all will now depend upon self-sacrifice, nuswerving union, brotherly sentiments, ana unceasing.. exertions of the Italians themselves to keep Italy. free from the rule of strangers. The telegram of yesterday, as usual, brought us the roost exaggerated news, declaring that Cialdini and Sounaz, with 30,000 men, had crossed the frontier, defeated Lamoriciere, and that the French general had' retired to Perugia, where he collected 12,0001b5. of tar in the castle of that city, in order to set fire to the same, in case the people should show the slightest disposition to xevnit,—which is another of those exaggerations to .whi c h I should be sorry to, join my faith. The insurrection of the Abruzzi is confirmed. An insurrection has broken out in the following Placit of the Pontifical states :—Pesaro, Monte feltro, Urbino, and Sinigaglia. It is not impro bable that the whole of the Marches and Umbria will. in a few days, be in a state of insurrection. It is not true that Cialdini and Sounaz have crossed the frontier ; but it is more than probable that they will do so should Antonelli give a negative reply to the Sardinian ultimatum for the immediate' disSolutiOn of the mercenary soldiers in the army of the Pope, which, of course, be will do. The object of this move on the part of the Saxdinian Government is, as I stated in ally former letters, to make a diversion in favour 45 f Garibaldi by calling off the forces of Lame- Triciere from offering the slightest 'assistance to Francis 11. There is something mysterious in 'the articles of the Patric and Pays, in warning the Sardinian Government of the grave conse luences that are likely to arise by an attack against Rome and Venice ; and I tell you candidly 'that'l do not expect many days to pass away 'before we shall find ourselves involved in a serious war with Austria, especially should Piedmont 'tontinue to push on matters in the way that she is now doing.. At the moment of clOsing this letter I received the following telegrams "FLoRENCE, Sept. 9, Evening. Fourteen 'deputies of the principal cities of Umbria arrived this morning at Florence, and have had an inter- N 'ieNicr with Prince Carignano.-;•--Four of the depu- Lies—that is to say of Perugia, Ferni, Spoleto, and Orvieto—have left for Turin."

The Motiiieur says, the 62nd and 67th regi ments of the line have been dispatched to .. ."enie. The French garrison, having . been thus ' l ncreased, General Goyon has received orders it° return to his post. General de Goyon, who only the other day '- superseded in the command of the French .4111 Y "at Rome, has been suddenly sent 'back 'again. It was understood that the reason for General de Goyon's recal was that he stood 7 (3ll arnitted by personal prOmises to the Pope to a degree of protection which the Emperor was not at the time disposed to afford him. The restora no n of this general to his command is therefore hly significant. The Independence Beige gives it to be under- S tates of ' lso d that the attack of Piedmont upon the the Church is secretly encouraged by the French Government. The semi-official Paris 4° ll rnal (the Patric) protests against this, but in Tery mild terms. It contains, by implication, that beyond the walls of Rome France will not "Interfere. *NTRANCE OF ADDITIONAL SARDINIAN TROOPS INTO THE PAPAL STATES. BOLOGNA, Sept. 12.

On Tuesday eveninu, a county constable on duty be tween the Borough and the Old Swan was met by a suspi cious looking Irishman, who accost ed him with "Well, peeler, it is a fine night , is it not ; don't you think so ?" The constable acquiesced. The thief continued, "Wouldn't you like a drop of real Irish whiskey—real genuine stuff ?" Being interrogated where he got it from, he took a bottle of whiskey from the pocket of a coat which he carried upon his arm, and declared that he had brought the bottle and all from Ireland. The constable again enquired of him who se whiskey and coat they were, and was answered, "And sure they are mine. Don't you know me ? I'm a cab man, and have been on the spree at the Old Swan for the last three days." The constable examined the coat, and desired the Irishman to try it on, remarking that it appeared too good for a cabman. The cabman put the coat upon his back, and the constable felt con vinced that he had come by it dishonestly, and took him into custody. The prisoner was yesterday brought before the magistrates at Kirkdale. The coat was identified by a gentleman residing at the Old Swan, and the prisoner, who pleaded guilty to the charge of theft, was committed for trial to the quarter sessions.

The weekly meeting of this board was held yesterday at the Dock , otlices, Revenue-buildings. Mr. Charles Turner presided, and the other members present were— Messrs. Smith, Laird, Littledale, Segar, Moss, Mondel, Rankin, Boult, Langton, Holme, Evans, Brocklebank, 'Hubback, Hutchison, Darbyshire, and Shand. WORKS COMMITTEE. From the minutes of this committee we gathered that Messrs. William Dawbarn and Co. had written for in creased accomme,dation in the Prince's basin, for the storage of salt and iron. Mr. Dawbarn had been invited to an interview with the committee on the subject. Mr. M. A. Johns had written, announcing his desire to give up possession of 600 yards of land at the Harrington basin, which he holds on a weekly tenancy, for the storage of coal. The notice had been accepted. A letter had also been received from Mr. Charles Ma'son, manager of the Birkenhead Railway, urging that a reply should be given to his application on behalf of that company for accommodation at the Liverpool side of the river. A sub-committee, consisting of the Chairman, Mr. Smith, and Mr. Holme, had been appointed to consider the subject. Mr. W. C. Miller had applied for leave to erect a mould-room adjoining his yard at the Toxteth Dock. The application had been granted. It was re commended that the tender of Messrs. Haigh and Co. should be accepted, to provide and 'fix three jiggers at the north stack Stanley. Dock Warehouses. Mr. flrocklebank moved the confirmation of the pro ceedings, and Mr. Shand seconded the motion. Mr. LAIRD thought there should be some notice taken in the minutes of a resolution come to on Satur day, to lower a portion of the wall of the Great Float for the accommodation of the timber trade. The CHAIRMAN-Mr. Hartley was to report next Saturday. The proceedings of the Warehouse Committee were then read and confirmed on the motion of Mr. Hubback seconded by Mr. Arnold. THE IHNRINE COHAITTEE The proceedings of this edmniittee corriprised a recom mendation to mithdrise an alteration in the btioyage of Hilbre Swath appoint a seaman to ono of the light ships; and to authorise the fitting-up of a heating apparatus in the chronometer-room at the observatory. It appeared that the master of the Prinbe's Landing -stage had attended and etplaitied the circtinistances under which lie had oide'tea the tenloval of the steam-boat Despatch, as stated in ➢lr. Ininall's letter of last week.. He had been instructed to give every possible accommodation to sea-going steamers in future. It was recommended that tenders be obtained for eight . new buoys for Hilbre Swash. From the weekly report of the water bailiff, it appeared that the wreck of a steamer sunk in a dangerous position in the CrOsby.Channel was in coarse of removal. ALTERATION IN THE'CHANNELS.—IMPROVED APPROAtRES TO TRE PORT The marine survey& stibtitted a plan of a partial survey of the leoithern Channel, just completed, which shores that the changes which have of late years been operating there, continue to progress in the same direc tion as hitherto,---resulting in continued improvement in the depth and width of the Queen's Channel, and a partial silting up of the Victoria Channel. The latter, though narrower, at the same time presents an increased depth on its inner bee. The qeeen's Channet bar, between the teetelee feet lines, has narrowed by nearly 4 one-half since the Garvey 61 last eear e elthe range of eepth on the reniaieing part M the liar being as before, from ten to twelve 'fat. The Vietorie. Chattel depths, on the Miter tha hind hats, range from fourteen to sixteen feet. the buoy of the QUeen's Channel remains appropriate to its improved condition ; but to take advantage of the improved depth of the Victoria Bar it was proposed to alter the position of the inner bar buoys. This change would obviate the inconvenience het by reason of these buoys being siteleted so tear the track through the eerosby thanftel'as to be liehle at night or in Thiele weather to be mistake n for the Cruaby Channel buoys. The report thee erlieted into details as to the proposed alteiatieets of the buoyage in Hilbre Swash, The change will consist, so far as we could learn, in the substitution of laige red and black buoys for the small checquered ones at present placed theie, and it was stated that the. proposed altereticeis had met the coraial approval of Eft etperintendent - of pilots, & e . Notice bill have to be given to the Trinity Board. MoNDEL moved the confirmation of the proceed ings of the Marine Committee. He said the Board would have heard with great satisfaction, he was sure, that the principal, the main channel to tree, port had improved considerably. Itevas fteee neirct better than it had ever beet; the bar was wider than any channel they had ever had in the river Mersey in his recollec tion, and it was now deepening. It had deepened a foot within the last twelve months : so that we had a chan nel accessible' to vessels at all tides, from half-flood to halfeebb, frequenting the port of Liverpool. The changes in buoyage, which the Marine Surveyot tecoperteeed, the committee had nett tensideratiore tee, anal he thought they eto,licl be advattageons. the genteetteri who Wtte met On the eiceision 'thee nedith *add have the opportnnite of seeing for ileeneseives that the small buoys in Hilbre Seresb. were difficult to see if there was the slightest commotion on the water; and the changes Were necessary, that the beeiyege Might be tenifeeM With the other channel, that they neiellt have red buoys on one side, and hlaek oit another, so that a stranger might tinders:tared them. This Hilbre Swash was not the entrance to the port of Liverpool, but it was an excel lent adjunct ; and when vessels could not get into Liverpool they might ran iftto Hilbre Serieh, end be in safety. Mr. Darbyshiee eeeended the motion. Mr. (Ada—Does the water on the bar mean low water in spring tides ? _ _ The C 11A.IR;LiN --I believe so. Mr. MoNDEL—Certainly. The proceedings of the Pilotage Committee were theft read and confirmed. Tar, DoCES CLIJA.YB • COAAITTEE. It appeared, front the t)reoeedines "of of Managethent bf the Docks and Quays that the engineer had refitsed hisPerthissloft for the engines of the Mtin4ter t to be ttied tt full speed in the Sandon Docik ; and Messrs. tames Watts and Co., of London, who hha titacle the application, bad been made acquainted With the fact. The following is Mr. Hartley's report upon the-subject • • " Dock. Yard, 11th Sept., 1860. I "DEAR SIR,—I return von the letters front Messrs. James Watt an d C o . I cannot' advise the Docks acid Quays Committee to alter in any way their resolution of the 20th June, as regards the Sandon Dock, her do I think it prudent in docks like *oars, in Which th.e deposit of mud is so great and the sills of the ga es i‘i• - 6 dose to the bottom, and coaideribg 'the risks which have to,b'e ran in docking heavy ships, to permit.the practiee of steatnships being Worked at full speed; if permitted at all, I think die least risk would be by placing a steamer in the iluskisson Dock, with her bow to the south pier when working her engines a-head, and reversing her when the working of the engines was reversed. lam referring in this only to the least risk as regards the decks themselves, aud offer no opinion as to what may be the effect upon the shipping in the dock.—l am, dear sir, yours truly, " J. R liARTL Y`. "Darnel Maim, Esq." Mr. S3LITH having moved the confirmation of the proceedings, Mr. LAIRD said it was a serious matter that they could not have the engines to work in the docks. it was done elsewhere, as stated last Week, and he thought from what took plate at the meeting of the Works Com mittee, on Saturday, that this permission would be granted in the Canada and Huskisson Docks. The effect must be to drive away trade of that kind from the port. He wished to ask a question. He had under stood Mr. Hartley that there would be no objection to vessels trying their engin es in the Great Float at Bir kenhead, when it was ope n.? Mr if li i A e ß ss E ht'with respect to th e G r eat Float,taken sufficiently away from the vTels wer e th o th ought, entrances, there could be no possible effect from trying any speed ; but he thought, as to all the entrances, that steamers should be taken as far as possible from them. - Mr. LAIRD was vary glad to hear that ; but with regard to the vessel in question, it was a serious matter. She would have to be removed to some other port to try her engines. The Cuirmi&N—Could not they try this vessel in the river ; take her into the Slope ? Mr. LAtaw—No, you cannot try her there ; you ought to make her fast. The CHAIRMAN—They could make her fast to a buoy or with her anchor. Mr. LAIRD—No, you cannot fasten her in that way. When I tell you that her paddle-shafts are two feet in diameter, and her bearings four feet long, you will have some idea of the difficulty. Since I spoke on the sub jict last Thursday, another vessel has been tried in the Victoria Dock, London, for six hours. The subject then dropped, and the proceedings were confirmed. THE PASSAGE BETWEEN THE COBURG AND BRUNSWICK DOCKS. Mr. GRAVES said there was one point to which he wished to call attention. It would be in the recollection of the board that the Brunswick Dock was ordered to be run dry that day ; and it struck him that a cause of great inconvenience to trade might perhaps now be removed—that was by the completion of the passage between the Coburg Dock and the Brunswick Dock. On previous occasions, when he had put the question as to when this would be completed, he had generally received the answer, " The Brunswick Dock would have to be run dry." He would suggest whether this would not- be a suitable time for putting: in a stack, so that that might be completed. He wished the committee to consider it at their next meeting. The CHAIRMAN — The engineer says it is a work which would require considerable time, and other works would have to stand if it were begun. Mr. BROCKLEBANK—The Brunswick Dock will only be dry a week, and it would be impossible to take out the stank in that time. The procee dings of the Master Porterage Committee were then read and confirmed. PURCHASE OF THE. CORPORATE ESTATE AT BIRKENHEAD. The following letter from the Town-clerk was read "Town all, Liverpool, Bth Septemb er , 18 60. ‘b "MY DEARSIR,— lam desired by the Finance Com- THE DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1860. mittee to notify to yolk officially, that on receipt of your letter of the 17th May last. stating the desire of the Mersey :Docks and Harbour Board to purchase the reversionary interest of the Corporation in the property at Birkenhead, referred to in the 16th section of the Mersey Docks and Harbour (New Works) Act, 1858, the committeexonsidered the subject so important that it was their duty to submit your application, in the OM instance, to the Council. This was accordingly done, and the Council passed the resolution, of which a copy is enclosed. 'the subject has since received the anxious attention of one of the sub-committees of the Finance Committee, who still have it under consideration ; but I believe that they will be prepared to report, to the Finance Committee in time to enable the question to be brought before the Council at the next monthly meeting.—Yours very faithfully, SIII.7TTLEWORTH, Town-clerk. "Chas. Turner, Esq., Chairman of the Mersey " Docks and Harbour Board." Attached to the report was a copy of the resolution passed by the Council, which was in_ effect, that that body sanctioned the principle of the sale of the rever sionary interest of the Corporation, and that it be referred to the Finance Committee to consider the terms of such sale, and report to the Council. The CHAIRMAN hoped, from what _ the Town-clerk said, the subject would be brought before the next meeting of the Council, which would be held on the first Wednesday in October. Mr. LAIRD hoped so, for every day was a gain to the Corport4ion, and a loss to-the board. Every shed put there, or piece of work done, rendered the estate of greater value, and would be taken into consideration. The CHAIRMAN hoped not, for that would be taking an advantage. He agreed with Mr. Laird it was desirable there should be no delay; but the principle of the arbitration, of course, must be based upon the state of things when the first application was made. The subject then dropped: CoAgerricAticiris, A letter was read from Mr. Nathaniel J. Holm, of London, bringing before the notice of the board the recent improvements in the electric telegraph patented by Professor Wheatstone, with the view of their adop tion dri the Liverpool and Itolyhead telegraph line. It was stated that these instruments, besides combining the advantages of increased speed and great simplicity in manipulation, required no voltaic batteries, or expe rienced clerks to work them,—the messages being received and trartSmitted in the ordinary alphabetic language. The letter mill referred to the Marine Committee, as was also one from :Jr. Jo3htia bill, of Rawlins-street, Fairfield, calling attention to an oil-gas apparatus which was stated to possess - advantages for the illumination of light-houses. A letter was next read' from Messr. Robert Thorpe and Co., on behalf of the Otterspool Oil Mill Co., com plaining that, being the buyers of several lots of seeds which He in the Albert Poek Warehouses, they had been refttseri the iveigdta there, and told to go to the importer to get them. Re might refer 'to others; and they should thus be driven from one party to another, to their great loss and inconvenience. The letter was referred to the Warehouse Committee. The CHAIRMAN said the next matter on the paper was the notice of motion given by Mr. Boult—" That the accounts of receipts of tonnage on ships, and dues on cargoes at Liverpool and Birkenhead, be hereafter kept distinct, niicl Separately retlorted to this board."

A brief conversation took place in reference to the letter from Mr. Buckmaster upon the deputy town-clerk observing that all the other registrars had assented to give the statistical information required of them w i t h the exception of Mr. Buckmaster, and that as they would be put to some additional trouble they thought he committee would not object to give them some little remuneration Mr. BEwvirn---Certiltly not, Mr. Bowntrin then implired when the atifinal statistics were made np, and expressed a hope that every informa tion would be given, in order to disabuse the Otibli t mind of the idea that Live4ool was 'Aire tinliealthy, .and that the mortality was higher than in other places. lie made that request in consequence of a friend of hi s , a. member of the Town Council, having only that very, morning asserted to him that the mortality of Liver pool was as high as ever it was, and he really did hop e that such statistics would be prepared as to. settle that important point. • Mr. BECKWITH said if Mr. Bowring's friend would compare the statioics given weekly it world be sufficient. The CHAIM/04—U he only looks at the returns this week he will find that there are 190 deaths less than there were this time twelve months. That alone is a saving of life at the rate of 6,24'0 per annum. Re also alluded to the Exchange district, which, it was said, w as one of the worst districts in town. That had been con siderably improved, for now the mortality was low; so it was clear that there had been great sanitary improve ments within the boundaries of the town, as well as in the out-town hips. . It was then decided that the recAircd statistics —the number of persons who died—and who actually belonged to the borough, should be given weekly, but that instead of a seven days' residence being taken, it should' be those who had resided there for one month, and that the registrars of deaths should be paid a reasonable sum for the extra trouble they might be put to in preparing such returns. THE OFFICERS OF HEALTH AND THE SOCIAL SCIENCE MEETING. Mr. NICKSON requested per Mission to allude to a discussion which had taken place on the previous Thurs day. He then detailed all - that had taken place, from the first request on the part of the committee, that Mr. M`Gowan and the borough engineer should go, le c observations made in th e C ounc il , w hi c h had ca 31r. M'Gowan to hope that the committee would, after the observations made in the Council by a certain member, permit him to decline proceeding to Glasgdw to attend the Social Science Meeting. He went on to say that he thought that Mr. M'Gowan had had some severe obser vations made upon him .which he did not deserve, and that, on such an importing occasion, the town of Liver: pool should have its authorised officers present ; and without making a motion on the subject, he did hope that the committee would take some steps to ensure that both Mr. M'Gowan and the borough Engineer would attend the meeting in Glasgow. Mr. SHEIL said that there had been more importance attached to the observation made in the Council than it deserved. It was a hasty observation made in the height of debate, and he (Mr. Sheii)"was quite sure that there was, no insult intended in the observation that was made. Mr. BECKWITH said he thought that the gentleman who made the observation was the last person who should have taken notice of it, as he attended the same meetings as the representative of a society in that town", and had all his expenses paid by. that society., (Laughter.) . Mr. Syrr thought that the two officers should not only attend the meeting, but that their expenses should be paid•for doing so, as it was to the interest and bene fit of the town that they should be present, not only to refute the charges made with respect to Liverpool, by the Registrar-General, but also to read their own piipers and hear what took place, which would be a great benefit to the town. After some further conversation, in the course of which it appeared to be the unanimous wish of the com mittee, that Mr. M'Gowan and the borough engineer should attend the meeting ; it was decided that leave of absence be given to them for so doin. The chairman observing that that was all the committee could do on the subject. •- THE COURTS AND ALLEYS COMMITTEE. A report from . this committee was read, which detailed . the visits the committee had made, and the improvements which had taken place, Mr. STITT observing, that in alknitary point of view that was one of the most valuable and important com mittees connected with the Council, and that the work done by that committee was much better done than it could possibly be by any servants. If they had paid servants to do it, it would not be done so efficiently, and would be a great expense to the town. Many thanks were due to the committee for their valuable services. (Hear, hear.) MISCELL 4SEOL`S IirSINESS. A -letter from Mr. Busby was referred to the sub committee. The CHAIRMKN stated that he had a letter from. the Mayor, but Mr. Sheil thought the proper course would ,be to have the motion contained therein brought before . the Council at the next meeting, ai one of the Mayor's communications. 1 Mr. Amor: thought the later should be read, and as several other geutlemen expressed the same views it was agred that it should be read. The Deputy Town-clerk then read the letter addressed by the Mayor to the Chairman of the committee, which was simply enclosing a letter that he had received froni Mr. Theodore Rathbone. Mr. liO4'ittriei Aged that he lMd perused Mr. Theo dore Rathbone's letter, and it figs COMplainin# of the conduct of the committee's officers at the last meet ing of the Social Science Association. He said, he did not conceive that the committee had anything to do with the subject, as the officers at that meeting were acting in their own private capacity, and not as the - servants of the committee. _ .

A numerous and highly fashionable audience honoured the occasion with their Presence, and amongst the distinguished gentle fti en present we noticed J. Ewart, Esq., Mr. Com missioner Perry, Captain Grey, and Captain Reynolds. The chair was taken by Captain Chambers, and during the delivery of the lecture, which occupied- nearly two hours, frequent and cordial applause was elicited from. the numerous auditory. There were nearly 400 per sons present, 150 of whom consisted of the members of the 3rd. Cheshire Rifles and the 4th Cheshire Artillery. The companies ranged themselves round the room two deep, and the visitors occupied the centre of the room, an arrangement which had a very fine effect. After the lecture the corps marched home preceded by their various bands: THE WORKHOUSE COHHITTEE. — The usual weekly meeting of this committee was held yesterday, at the board-room, Brownlow-hill. Mr. Churchwarden Smith presided. - The other gentlemen present . were Messrs. Scott, Whitty, Satchell, Owens, Critchley, Goodacre, 13yford. Broom, and P ec k. The number of PR" pe rs i n the house on the 12th of September was 1,828 ; and for the corresponding period of last year, 1,8 M; showing a decrease of 23. The number of vagrants relieved during the past week was 270 men, 93 women, and 23 children, making a total of 326 ; being an increase of 24 over the corresponding period of last year. A letter was rea d from one of the paupers complaining that he had been subjected to an injtistice by the act of the governor and Mr. Power, who had, as he alleged, conspired agai ns t him, and he requested the committee to inquire into the facts. From the statement of the governor, it did appear that the complainant's tobacco had been stopped because he reused to work, although the surgeon bad certified that-he was fully competent. With the excep tion of the governor's report, which we have published in another column, the remainder of the business was o f a routine character. }, : , , THE NOTORIOUS SWINDLER. THOMAS PARR GILMOUR. EXTRAORDINAnY REVELATIONS SH,OcKING DEPRAItrY. WORKING AND INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS -BEWARE! ATTEMPTED DECOYING OF YOUNG PROTESTANT GIRLS. Who has not heard of the renowned Thomas Parr Gilmour ? For upwards of thirty years he has lived entirely upon his wits—that is to say, by swindling his neighbours. There is scarcely a county or a city in the _United Kingdom which has not been visited by this notorious individual. The natives of the Emerald Isle have been made dupes by him, as also has the country that produced the poet who wrote "A man's a man for a' that." But the county of Lancaster has been the centre from which he has so successfully worked. A biographical sketch of such a man as Thomas Parr Gil ntour there is no doubt would be very interesting, but, where a man's operations in swindling have extended over every village, town, and county of England, Scot land, and Ireland, it would be almost impossible, but froth his dame so constantly appearing in print we have no doubt that our readers will form a fair estimate of the man. We can only say.that some thirty years since he commenced business as a commission agent and broker, in the Goree Piazza, where he traded under the firm of Malcolm, Gilmour, and Co. This firm soon disappeared, and it is only in a very early edition of "Gore's Directory" that we find it mentioned. Who Malcolm Was is still a mystery; suffice it to say, Thomas Parr Gilmour was the working partner. After the failure of the firm, Gilmour first commenced to live on the vitals of others ; and we find him in Manchester, then only a borough, now a city. He had a large house elegantly furnished, and he dressed himself as an ecclesiastic. Morning, noon, and night he was seen standing at the window of his house, bible in hand, apparently in the deepest study ; and whenever any person of respecta bility'passed, Gilmour would fall upon his knees in the attitude of prayer. By this means he gained the confi dence of a number of tradesmen. His larder was well supplied with all sorts of provisions; but, as there must be a payday, in the course of time the tradesmen who had been so been so benevolent as to supply him with food and raiment, and had luxuriously furnished his house, required something in the shape of money. They applied, arid applied again, payment constantly being avoided, that teeing the last thing which Gilmour evidently ever contemplated. At last the duped disco vered the imposition ; and the result was, that the house was besieged by creditors and Thomas Parr Gillmour sought protection of the police authorities, which he obtained, or he would not have survived to continue his depredations. On that occasion he said he bad "a mis sion from the Almighty to perform such acts." As he had only contracted debts, arid had not been guilty of any criminal offence, he could not he punished, unless he got caught, and as the Manchester people could not catch him, he was never punished by them. After that little affair, this man of ingenuity was frequently heard of in various tarts of the country, as a begging letter impostor, and varidds ether erally respectable callings, uutil the year 1843, when be e beard of in Edinburgh, where he was living in a large house, selth every article of ' luxury in his possession, but still without any aeailsrble means. The persons from whom all these good things were supplied, however, began to be dissatisfied with "promises of payment," but at last, finding that they have been duped, took the very wise precaution of " catehing him if possible ;" and by dint of perse verance they at last succeeded. The following graphic chScription extracted front a Beata journal of October, 1843,_ will fully describe the man, and the esteem in which he Was held by the baillie, who had to adjudicate on the else .

He did not then take her away, but on the 3rd of the present month he again called at, the workhouse, when he as before gave the name of Parr, and took the child away with him to the Isle of Man. The girl returned on the 10th inst,, " bringing with her a written paper s i g ned " John So y le, chief-constable o f Douglas, . which stated that the girl had applielt to him to be passed over to Liverpool, and that she - had 'escaped from her master, who the , chief- ' constable designated as the renowned " Thomas Parr Gilmour," who was then living there. [The certificate was subsequently read. from which it appeared that upon the girl making her case known to Mr. Soyle he Slay, and that passage to Liverpool.] The they td y t h ak ad en her to granted the her a steam free packet company, report goes on to stat e that the g irl said, after she eft the workhouse Parr look her over to Douglas to a lodging house, and for the first two nights she slept in the same room, but not in the same - Ned. They then removed to another room in the same house, in which there was only one bed. She refused to sleep with him, but he made her, and then he took' indecent liberties with her. She left him because she did not like to sleep with him, ... and because a lady told her_ that if she stopped with him she would be ruined. - Gilmour had also written several letters to the schoolmistress, to one of which the report especially alluded, as the governor had underlined 'certain passages in that letter, and likewise to a most respectable female in Ireland, to engage her as a gover ness: The governor then goes on to state his reasons for, making such an elaborate report of the matter, and also to state that he has understood the same Thomas Parr Gilmour had written letters to Mr. Coats, the. master of the Industrial Schools, requesting to have some more girls sent to him from that institution. The Vestry-clerk read the letters referred to in the governor's .report, the first of which was addressed to the schoolmistress, and was written after the girl bad left Douglas, in which he accuses the child of an attempt to commit a felony, by running away with thq clothes she had on, and requesting that they might be taken from her. He also warned the schoolmistress from paying attention to any statement she might make, as she would " forge lies" to screen herself. The letter to the Master of the Industrial Schools was rather an unique specimen of letter-writing. It was dated from D oug l as , f rom Th omas P arr , i n th e care o f Moore and Co., an d was t o th e f o ll ow i ng e ff ec t : " I want w _ several girl s a b ou t t we l ve years o f age, Protestants, o can read and write, and are competent to cast up accounts." A brief conversation ensued on the report; after which it was unanimously decided that the whole sub ject should be referred to a special committee, for the express purpose of getting at the real facts of the girl's statement, and, if possible, taking legal proceedings, either criminally or otherwise, against Thomas Parr Gilmour. CORRESPONDENCE. HIGHLAND VOLUNTEERS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE DAILY TIMES. Sin,—"A Private in the New Highland Company," whose letter appeared in to-day's Times, has evidently heard and profited by the story of the attorney whose ief instructions to his counsel were as follow :—" case ; abuse the plaintiff!" An exposure of a statement calculated to mislead is called " howling down ;" and the members of the 71st Highland L. R. V. generally (in addition to proving traitors to the tartan) are accused of " spreading disparaging remarks" respecting the "new company." In short, to judge by our bare legged brother's letter, a mare injured and persecuted set of heroes than the body he belongs to cannot be found anywhere. Now, what are the facts of the case ? At the review at Knowsley, the 71st Highland L. R. V., having been appointed as guard of .honour to the Countess of Derby, were extended on each side of the grand stand, and in front of the great body of spectators—who had pre viously cheered us most hearily on marching on the ground with the second battalion. Being stationed in a position where we were most conspicuous, we had the good fortune to be mentioned with approbation in most of the newspapers in the kingdom. An entirely dis tinct company—wearing a different uniform from the 71st, and represented on the field by two members in uniform—calling themselves " Highland Volunteers " (thereby ignoring the fact of a killed corps having been established here before them), having commenced their advertisement as follows, "The uniform of this com pany, which excited so much enthusiasm at Knowsley," I was atrocious enough to contradict in your columns what I considered an incorrect statement. I was then in ignorance of the fact, vouched for by " A Private in the New Highland Company," that "not only ladies on the grand stand, but mounted and other officers, and the pablic generally who saw us—(the two members aforesaid)-- , -tipressed themselves as described by our indefatigable secretary in the advertisement referred to." In conclusion, I beg to deny that any ill-feeling towards the "new company" exists among the mem bers of the 71st; rather the contrary, as the success of an artisan "kilted" -corps cannot in any way interfere with us. And if the promoters of the "pew company" are sincerely desirous of beinc , on good terms with the 71st, all they have to do is to word their advertisements so as not to lead to the belief that they are the only "Highland Volunteers" .in Liverpool.—l remain, sir, yours respectfully, A MEMBER or THE 71sT HIGHLAND L. R. V. TO THE EDITOR OT THE 1511 LY TIMES. STE,—In your impression of this day, I observe a letter from a member of the new Kilted Volunteer Corps letter certainly containing very good advice ; but, unfortnnately, some persons preach that which they do not practice, as is the case with the members of the new Highland corps. Had they been united as at " Prestonpans," there would have been no new Highland corps. I ask, what was the;origin of this new corps? Was it not some one c'r two discontented members of the 71st who, isecause they were not elected as officers, resigned, and formed a new corps, and are now (by playing their cards well) officers. Your correspondent is evidently one of the rmv members of this new, but as vet unrecognised, corps. In conclusion, let me remark, what your own account of the review substantiates, that the 71st High land Corps was THE one that caused such admiration. Trusting that you will find a corner for the above, and also that this paper war is now finished, I remain, yours, &c. TRI . TH. 13th September, 18-611, DIE CHARGE OF MURDER ON BOARD THE AMERICAN SHIP. Yesterday, at dig Police Court, Henry Lawson, who had been remanded on two or three occasions, was brought up for final examination, on a charge of hav ing murdered Charles Wallace, the boatswain of the American ship Lombard.

CLAYTON-HALL—VALENTINE VOUSDEN. All those who have gone to see and hear Valentine Vousden, at the Clayton-hall,—and, as the house has been nightly crowded, the difficulty would be to find one who has not,—have asked the question—Who is Valentine Vousden ? what countryman is he ? Some will persist in saying "Why, of course, he is a German, yes, a Gerinan Jew; else how could he so- well sustain the character of Elizabeth Winkleman, with her Buy, buv my Broom ; '" another will have it that he mast be a Yankee, or he never could go-a-head so fast ia the praise of his country both in tak and action; and after enumerating the wonders that they have perftrmed, which would certainly tend to make all believe that America is a nation which licks creation. When he sings, "I'm a Yankee." they are perfectly convinced that he is an importation from that country. But he no sooner assumes the character of " Monsieur Jacques Alphonso de la ChaSsen" than. some doubt appears to exist, and he is at once put down as a Frenchman. Who but a Frenclinia.n they say, could be so obsequiously polite— who could dance with such grace and elegance, and who but a Frenchman would attempt to illustrate by dancing, the peculiar characteristics of each nation. Others will have it that he is an Englishman, and go so far as to assert that he was in his early youth appren ticed to the sea, but ran away and turned "strolling player," because he " looks every inch a sailor." But when he makes his appearance as " Padd • Brannagau," those who fi rs t b e li eved he was a 'German, or an ot c lu a ys, n dl , tetn o , r a the tph F eer r i e b n rom e t h he m te.,r a sa n n , d o w r actr a eo n !l Englishman, onmgelibs exclaim,ohdma yn e‘lTs look eh:i, i e A s a n n e e % r , s i Could any but an Irishman tell the grief and woes or the pleasures and enj o y ments of " - Ould Ireland's sons" with the same zest and feeling ? Could any but an Irishman sing, and give with such peculiar and national anecdotes, in illustration of an Irish cabman's life as a regular born Irishman, " The Irish Jaunting Car ? and when he says, " Do you want a car, Tour honour," all are perfectly satisfied that he is an Irishman. But in the entertainment lie also appears as " Sandy M‘liaty." in full Highland costume, and then all Scotchmen would boldly flaim him for their own, as their " plain soldier laticlie." It is not for us to say to which nation he really belongs. Suffice it to say that his entertainment of " The Unity of Nations," is complete ; and whether representing the. type of one nation or the other, Mr. Vousden is equally happy and at home, in the per sonification and peculiarities of one and all. The immense success, and the crowded houses he has drawn to Clayton-hall, is a sufficient proof of his popularity. EXTRAORDINARY ACCIDENT. Yesterday afternoon an accident of a singular descrip tion took place in town. The following are the facts_ About four o'clock a pony attached to a gig was left. standing near a public-house in Wavertree-road, when. from some cause or other, the animal started off at full speed and rushed down Paddington, Brownlow-hill, by the Adelphi into B.anelagh-street ; thence through Church-street, Lord-street, and James's-street towards the Landing-stage. There were several efforts made to arrest the progress of the animal, but all failed, until it came in contact with a lamp-post in the last street, where the gig was smashed to pieces, and the pony was then secured. It appears that it belonged to a Mr. Edwards, of Cow-lane Brewery, Wavertree, and that in its headlong course it had knocked down a man, who is reported to be more or less injured; an d i n Ch urc h- street, a b oy who was rolling a handcart was upset and ran over by the vehicle; but it is stated that the injuries he received are not likely to prove fatal. The police having taken charge of the animal sent it home to Cow-lane. It does not appear to have been injured itself. Considering the crowded state of the streets at the time, it is strange that more serious accidents did not take place, and it is very reprehensible to leave horses in the street without some one to take care of them, for if anything fatal happened, the party so neglecting his duty would be liable to have a charge of manslaughter preferred against him. THE QUEEN'S RETURN EttuM bCOTLAND. Her Majesty the Queen having determined to return direct from Balmoral to Osborne by the shortest rail way route, the necessary arrangements have been com pleted with the various railway companies whose lines will be traversed by the Royal party, for the performance of the journey from Abovne to Edinburgh, to-morrow, and from Edinburgh to Osborne during Monday night and Tuesday morning. The route taken will be over the Deeside Railway from Aboyne to Aberdeen, whence the Scottish North Eastern line will be traversed to the city of Perth, where the Scottish Central Railway com mences, and runs forward to the Larbert junction, at which point the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway is en tered upon—this line completing the tourney to Waver ley-bridge station, in the City of Edinburgh. From Waverley the royal party will travel over the North British Railway to St. Margaret's station, where her Majesty will alight, and proceed in one of her own carriages, to Holyrood. On Monday evening the route will be over the North British Railway 'from St. Mar garet's station to Slateford, where the territory of the Caledonian line, extending thenceforward to the border city of Carlisle, is entered upon. At Carlisle the London and North Western line commences, and runs forward a distance of nearly 20 miles to the Bush bury junction of the 'West Midland Railway,ltover which the Royal train will pass on to the low level station of the Great Western Railway at Wolverhampton, from which place to Basing stoke the narrow gauge line of the " Broad Gauge Com pany " will be traversed. From Basingstoke to Gos port her Majesty will, as usual, travel over the South- Western Railway. The following is an epitome of the Royal time-table from Aboyne to Gosport : —The Queen will commence her railway journey at Aboyne, at noon on Saturday, and arrive at the city of Aberdeen at 115 p.m. After a lapse of five minutes, the train will move on ten miles to Stonchaven, where ' her Majesty will alight and partake of luncheon,, far which half an hour is allowed. Starting from Stenehaven at 2 17 p.m., her Majesty will arrive at Forfar tit 328 p.m. After four minutes' delay the train will resume its progress to Perth, which city her Majesty will reach at 4 30 p.m. Here five minutes are allowed before proceeding forward to Lar bert, where the train is timed to arrive at 5.50 p.m. From Larbert to Edinburgh the journey will occupy fifty-eight minutes, making a total of 192 miles per formed in rather less than six hours, exclusive of stoopages. Her Majesty will remain at Holyrood during Sunday and Monday next. On the evening of the latter day the Queen will resume her progress southwards, leaving the St, Margaret station at 6.45 p.m., and and arriving at Abiugton ' on the Caledonian line, where the first stoppage will be made to take in water, at 8.4 p.m. From Abington to the city of Carlisle the journey will be made without stoppage, the royal train arriving at the central station at 9.45 p.m. There will be ten minutes delay here for the service of tea and coffee in, the train to the royal travellers. Again in motion, the journey will be continued from Carlisle to Shap without. stoppage. At the latter place the engine will take in water, and then run forward to Lancaster. at which royal borough the Queen is timed to arrive at five minutes before midnight. From Lancaster to Presto there will be no stoppage, and from Preston to Whit more the journey will also be uninterrupted. At. Stafford, where the royal train will arrive at 2 45 a.m.,. the engines will be changed. The royal train, will not stop at Bushbury, but will pass slowly through the junction of the West Midland Railway, and. proceed over that line to the low level station at • Wolvorliampton, where a stoppage of five minutes will occur. Thenceforward to Leamington the journey will: be. run in 62 minutes, and to Banbury in 30 minutes , more. From Banbury the royal train will proceed direct to the city of Oxford. where it is timed to arrive at 5.25 p.m. Here five minutes arc allowed; and, again in motion, no further stoppage will take place until the Queen arrives at the Basingstoke junction of the South- Western Railway, over which her Majesty will travel, as usual, without any interruption to Bishopstoke, and thence to Gosport, arriving at the latter plac e a t fi ve minutes to eight o'clock on Tuesday morning,. By t h e adoption of this line there is a saving of distance of 56. miles as compared with the King's-cross route in the journey between Edinburgh and Gosport, and it l ie. equally free from breakof guage throughout. SERIOUS .e FATAL AccinEwr. - -Ye.sterdav after noon a ship carpenter named John Wood, residing at Lapsley-terrace, Great Osford-street North, fell from the stage of the ship Tricolour into the Sandon Glaring Dock. He was immediately removed to the hospital ; the fall had occasioned a fracture of the skull, and the unfortunate man died before reaching the hospital.
