Ample justice having been done to the repast, and the cloth being removed, the usual loyal toasts were given. To that of the " Army and Navy," Ensign Sharratt, of the Salford Rifles, master of the Model Schools, Salford, responded, and, in doing so, drew attention to the rifle movement; and trusted that if circumstances called upon the volunteers to try their courage in feats of arms, they would show the lukewarm and cool that the riflemen were something more than mere dandies. As his name was on the pro gramme to bring forward the schoolmaster's duties, and his influence out of school, he begged to apologise for not doing so before, as he had been delayed by the rail way officials—he should only say now that he considered it a duty incumbent on every schoolmaster to take proper physical exercise, suggesting as one of the best means of invigoratinT, the frame, the volunteer drill. The toast of the evening, the " Associated Body," was 'acknowledged by Mr. Rathbone, of Manchester. Several other toasts followed, including the "District Officers," the " Chairman," the "Local Associations," the " Chester Provisional Committee," and the "Host and Hostess." After spending an agreeable afternoon, the company dispersed, delighted, encouraged, and cheered with the day's proceedings.—The next meeting will be held in Liverpool, on the last Saturday in August. COURT OF PASSAGE.—YEsrERDAY. (Before EDWARD JAMES, Esq., Assessor.) ACTION FOR FALSE IMPRISONMENT. -- SUTHER. LAND 2'. JACKSON.—In this case the plaintiff is the wife of ashipwright, and the defendant a sea: faring man. Mr. Russell appeared for the plaintiff and Mr. Deighton for the defendant. In the month of November last the plaintiff was on intimate terms with the defendant's wife, and attended her during her illness up to the time of her death. On account of this attendance, and some loans which the plaintiff had advanced to defendant, there were a few pounds owing to Mrs. Sutherland at the time of the defendant's wife's death. The plaintiff had repeatedly pressed for pay ment of this debt, but as it had been contracted while the defendant was at sea he had always refused to pay. Iu consequence of this refusal to pay on the part of the defendant their former friendship ceased, and in the month of March the defendant called upon the plaintiff and charged her with stealing a silk mantle, the pro perty of his wife. She denied the charge, but the defendant called a policeman and gave her into custody. She was taken to bridewell and brought up next morning at the Police-court, when the charge was dismissed. On behalf of the defendant Mr. Deighton proved that the .plaintiff had changed the pawnshop of the mantle in question, and that it had been taken out of the second pawnshop by some person whom the defendant believed was plaintiff. Acting under this belief, the defendant applied to Mrs. Sutherland for the article, and it was not until he had reason to believe that it was in her possession that she was given into custody. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, with one farthing damages. NIELD AND ANOTHER V. TAYLOR.—The plaintiffs in this action were Messrs. Nield, Dickiu, and Co., tea merchants, in Temple-court ; and they sought to recover from the defendant, whO is a commission agent, the aura of £34 6s. 11d. for goods sold and delivered. Mr, Tem ple and Mr. Russell appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Brett for the defendant. It appears that in July, 1858, a brother-in-law of the defendant, named Bowey, com menced business as a grocer, in Great Homer-street, and obtained a quantity of goods from the plaintiffs ; defen dant introduced Bowey to the plaintiffs, and at the time of their introduction it was understood that the defendant would become responsible. After a few months had expired Bowey, getting into difficulties, left the town. Plaintiff then sent in a bill to the defen dant, amounting to upwards of £350. Several items 14 the bill had been paid by Bowey. Defendant denied that he had made himself responsible for his brother-in law's debts. It was shown that several of the items had been already paid ; and the plaintiffs were non suited. ACTION AGAINST THE TOHTETH GUARDIANS. — WHITTLE V. THE GUARDIANS OF TILE TOWNSHIP OF TOXTETH PARK.—In this case Mr. Aspivall appeared for the plaiutitf, who was formerly medical officer for a district in Toxteth-park, and Mr. Brett appeared for the defendants. The action was brought in consequence of the defendants having given plaintiff a three months' notice to resign when he was under a yearly engage ment. There were several points of law involved in this case, and the action was ultimately refeyred to the Court of Queen's Bench. _ INTERPLEADER ISSUE.-SHERRY V. SMITH.-11l this case Mr. Conway represented the plaintiff, who is a licensed hawker, and Mr. Littler appeared for the defen dant, who is a sort of jockey, and frequents the race courses throughout the country. On the 6th of March last the plaintiff left his residence with the intention of oing to the races. He took with him six £5 notes, which he Ohanged at 4r. Thankland's, in Castle-street. Whilst tit the races he fell in with the defendant, who told plaintiff th'at he had no money, but had a Postoff4e pocket. He accompanied order for five $4lOlO his the defendant over the r4qeconxse, and got pretty well drunk by evening. They returned home together ; and when the plaintiff got to his hotel, in #egent-street, he found that out of his VIII he had only pi left. He at once accused defendant, who had accompanied Ills to the hotel, of stealing his money ; and that gentleman pulled out of his pockets .£l5, and pushed it over to plaintiff, ~g,~in+ " Will that do ?" The plaintiff was not satisfied with this, aii.d gave defendant into custody. The next morning, wipn ,the ppc Tao heard at the Police-court, there was not sufacient evi4el4p fcr g a con viction, and the charge was dismissed. The plaintiff -- , tilt his action to recover the money.—The jury DOW • , :f r • -"INNIENT. SISEY v. ^mi he found for the ACTION FOR FALSE IMPR.L4— BOTD. — In this case the plaintiff was a seaman, ... sought compensation from the defendant, who is master of a vessel, for a false imprisonment which he had sustained, and of which defendant was the cause. In the month of October, 1858, the plaintiff signed articles for a voyage to Adelaide and back in the ship Meth, of which the defendant was captain. When the ship arrived at Adelaide, defendant ordered plaintiff on shore, and the latter took another vessel, and returned to England. On meeting defendant, plaintiff asked for his wages; but as he could not obtain them by asking, he took out a summons against defendant. In the meantime defendant gave plaintiff into custody on a -3-- - - 3 - - +I-- magistrates. He was dismissed on that charge, and subsequently obtained his wages. In the present action the defendant had entered upon the record a plea of justification, but the learned assessor ruled against the plea, and the jury found for the plaintiff, damages £lO. ANOTHER ACTION FOR FALSE IMPRISONMENT. PARKINSON v. MCKNIGHT.—Mr. Temple appeared for the plaintiff iu this case, and Mr. Deighton for the defendant. According to the first witness's statement, is was shown that the defendant was not the person who gave plaintiff in custody, and the learned assessor, therefore, directed a nonsuit. LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. RAFFLES.) BURGLARY BY A RETURNED CONVICT. George Smith, who was sentenced to ten years' penal servitude in 1853, and released on a ticket of leave a short time since, was brought up on two charges of burglariously entering houses. Early on the morning of the 6th instant, he broke in at the back kitchen window of a shop in London-road, occupied by Mr. Olphert, who hearing a crash, proceeded down stairs, and found the prisoner in the kitchen holding in his hand a number of burning handkerchiefs. On being asked his business, he replied, " Don't you see your shop is all on fire ;" and whilst the prosecutor proceeded to see whether his statement was correct, he made his escape, leaving behind him a pair of boots, a strap, and a knife, which he acknowledged in the court to be his property. Shortly afterwards the prisoner entered at the window of the front parlour of 16, Dolby-street, a private house kept by a Mr. Pugh, who heard the noise, and immediately went down stairs. On the way down he heard a rustling noise, and saw a man pass through the lobby towards the back parlour. Prose cutor went out of the front door in search of assistance, and met a couple of constables, who searched the place and discovered the prisoner hiding his face behind some coats in the lobby. He had no shoes on. He was immediately conveyed to bridewell. The case had been heard before. ' The prisoner was fully committed to take his trial at the assizes. STEALING COTTQN.—Catherine Marlow, on a charge of stealing , 11 lbs. of cotton, the property of Mr. Peter Johnson, junior, Vandries-street, was committed for trial. A CHARGE OF INDECENT ASSAULT. —A man of respectable exterior, named John IVl`Clune, was brought up on a charge of indecen tl y assaulting a girl thirtee years of age, residing with her parents in the . Park. From the girl's evidence it app ears that the prisoner, who is a packman, entered the h ouse on Wednesday night, and, after ascertaining that she was alone, desired to be allowed to measure her feet for a p air of shoes. This privilege being granted him, he committed the assault complained of. Mr. Raffles thought the uncor roborated evidence of the girl was insufficient to warrant a conviction, but remanded the prisoner until to-day. (Before Messrs. RATHBONE and ToRR.) PUBLICAN AND BEERHOUSE CASES.—The following were acquitted on charges of offending on Good Friday : Elizabeth Lindlay, publichouse-keeper, Argyle-street ; John Parry, beerhouse-keeper, Kitchen-street; Margaret Jackson, beerhous2-keeper, Argyle-street; Ellen Mathews, beerhouse-keeper, Smithfield-street; Wm. - White, beer house-keeper, Wolfe-street ; Wm. pedson beerhouse keeper, Pitt-street; Chas.

VICTORIA DEBENTURES.—The committee of associated Australian banker's will receive tenders for the unallotted portion pf the Yigteria Debentures at 105, until Tuesday neXt. OPENING OF THE INFANT ORPHAN ASYLUM. Yesterday, the Infant Orphan Asylum, in Melville place, was formally opened by, af,,r;. 114krurood Banner, the president, in the presence•of a considerable number of ladies and gentlemen. Previous to the ceremony of opening the new building, divine service was held in the Church of the Holy Innocents (in connection with the Boys' and Girls' Orphan Asylum). The church was largely attended on the occasion. The Lord Bishop of Chester delivered the sermon, selecting his text from the Gospel according to St. Matthew, xviii., 5 —" Whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me." His LORDSHIP said it was nearly at this same season last year, that many of the kind friends now present met in this church, to pray for God's blessing on the occasion of laying the first stone of the Infant Orphan Asylum. We now meet again to testify our thankfulness for the completion of this work, and to pray that, by the con tinuance of His favour, this new institution may prosper and be a source of perpetual blessings from generation to generation. The successful completion of the new building would, of itself, be a cause of thankfulness and joy. But the work has a further importance, and calls for further thankfulness, insomuch as it is also the com pletion of a larger design, which, having already pro vided two asylums for elder boys and girls, still required the addition of a third for infants, so as to adapt itself to the differences of age as well as of sex. We have now a complete system of arrangement, analogous to that which has been very generally adopted in the cases of parochial schools—that is, one department for infants, 1 and two separate departments for boys and girls of greater age. The first of our three asylums, as respects the time of its foundation, is that for orphan girls. It appears from the last report, that there are 132 inmates in it. The second asylum has in it 120 boys. And there are already forty infants to enter the third asylum, which is opened to-day. No doubt, there will soon be a large accession to its numbers. All the children are assembled here to join with our selves in prayer and praise to God; and I am confident that there is not one amongst us all, whose heart is not touched with feelings of gratitude and joy, at having been permitted by God's goodness to take part in making provision for the temporal comfort and religious nurture of these orphans ; without father, without mother, per haps without friends —or, at best, only with friends who are unable to support them. What would 'have been their condition if they had not, by your kindness, found a refuge here ? Either they must have been a burden ou relations, already oppressed with other and nearer claims, or they must have been con signed to the workhouse. That last word has fallen from me, and Ido not recal it. But let me not be thought to speak of the workhouse as if it was a place to repel our sympathies ; God forbid. There is a noble principle of humanity, a Christian principle of love, embodied in that municipal law of our land, which pro vides in our workhouses for those for whom otherwise there would be no provision at all ; which provides shelter, and food, and raiment for the helpless poor of every age, but especially for poor children who have no home, no friend, no resource, but the guardianship of the public and the parternal providence of God. That is a blessed provision for the maintenance and education of helpless orphans of the poorest of the pour. But there are orphans of a different class; somewhat raised above this depth of extreme poverty ; born, though in a humble, yet iu a decent condition of life, and who deserve in their destitution to have some tenderer consideration she wn towards them, some hetter provision made for them, than the law makes for the lowest class if all. The parents may have been industrious, frugal, prudent; if they had been spa re d, th e y m i g ht h ave b roug ht u p their • young family in comfort and credit, without . being burdensome to anyone, until their children were of an age to maintain themselves, and to make their way in the world, under God's blessing, by their own exertions. But it has been ordained otherwise. It has been God's will that the parents should be taken sway at au early age, in the midst of their struggles and their hopes ; in the midst of the burden and heat of life's busy day ; and thus their children have been sud denly left without any provision, without the means of `self support, without the means of any friendly succour. It is for children, left under such circumstances, that these asylums then open their charitable doors. Here the poors orphans find a home ; are sheltered from the cold, inclement world; nurtured with kindness; trained in such knewledae as may fit them for usefulness in this life, and in that heavenly truth which is able to make them wise into salvation and fit them for the life to come. It is a good thing that they are instructed in such branches of learning and industry as may qualify them for gaining their own livelihood in the ordinary employments of the world. lint it is still a higher blessing that they are trained up in the fear of that they meet here, as we see them now, to offer up their prayers and praises to their Heavenly Father, in gratitude for his protecting care ; and in the hope that, by his grace, they may be made meet to be partakers hereafter of his heavenly kingdom'along with the saints who have already gone before in the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ. We may well indulge an expectation, that, having thus received here the benefit of a sound and'religious education, they may go forth into the world with good principles and orderly habits, and become respectable members of society, useful tq ethers, happy in themselves. Even in the short Course of time that these asylnras have been in operation, experience has confirmed this hope. The reports of the last year state that satisfactory accounts have been received both of the boys and of the girls who have left the asylums, and either been apprentiped to trades or placed a 4pgations of respectable employ ment. They have conducted themselves well; given satisfaction to their employers; and received favourable testimonials to their character. It is a great pleasure to be able to refer to those practical proofs of the gooil effects of our institution. The reports notice the gene ral managewei# of bus - , ,?3'1!4n 2 0 in terns of commenda tion, and" there is an interesting circuMstalice mentioned in connection with this point. The teacher of the school for the Infant Orphan Asylum is herself an orphan, and was formerly an apprentice to of the Female Orphan Asylum. She the mat, has thus passed from one erauca or tae to another, to exercise towards the little inmates there the same tender and watchful care which she herself experienced in the earlier stage of her own apprentice ship. Her efficiency in her new position is fully proved by the obedience and affection which the children show to her. We must all be gratified by this circumstance ; and I do not doubt that it is a gratification to her own mind also, to feel that she is thus enabled to make a graceful return for the benefits wnieh she herself has derived from our institution. The funds fF the erection or mese EiSputum oa►c vecu Luc JULI 4 uvaitluOl4O/I OI generous friends. Many of the most respected and influential merchants of Liverpool have given large donations for the work. Honour be to them all. But I am confident that my words will find a ready echo in every heart when I say, that the tribute of our grateful acknowledgments is especially and pre eminently due to the kind benefactor of this institution, who last year laid the foundation of the Infant Asylum, and now has the desire of his heart fulfilled by seeing the completion of the work. He has contributed a large sum of money towards the building of each of the three asylums, and he erected the church which embraces and connects them all, entirely at his own expense. I know that the Christian philanthropist does not court man's praise, I know that the Christian minister ought not to bestow praise to please man's ear, Bnt I think that the Christian philanthropist may justly desire pleasure from feeling that others appreciate his works of charity and love. I think that the Christian minister may, that he ought to commend those, who are doing good to Christ's disciples for Christ's sake ; now espe cially to commend those who are seeking to shelter the scattered lambs of his flock, and bring them into the fold. The character of our Lord Jesus Christ is full of tenderness for all, both old and young. But Ido not know whether in that universal tenderness there are any instances of it more touching than the gentle affec tion which he showed for children. When his disciples would have kept them back from him, regarding their approach as an unsuitable intrusion, our blessed Lord rebuked this mistaken zeal, and said, " Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not ; for of such is the kingdom of heaven." Words dear to every parent's heart—words which encourage us when we bring our own children to the holy sacrament of bap tism, to be admitted into the membership of his church, and the blessings of his grace. Day by day, the prayer of our lips, and of our hearts as well, is that they may continue His for ever ; that they may grow up in his faith and love; may advance in goodness as in years, in wisdom as in stature, and daily increase in favour with God and man. While we thus pray for our own children, let us not turn away from the poor orphans who have no father to guide their steps, no Mother's gentle care To shield their infant innocence with prayer. Be you, with God's blessing, their guide, their shield It is to our Lord Jesus Christ that we owe every hope of grace for ourselves and our own children. We can make Him no return but the return of a grateful heart. Yet He has pointed out a way in which we may do ser vices of kindness that He will accept as done unto Himself. He has said—" Whosoever shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me." Let us not withhold from Him the tribute which He has thus at once invited and enabled us to pay. At the conclusion of the service, the company pro ceeded to the new building in Melville-place. Preceded by the band of the asylum, the orphan boys and girls, clean, neatly attired and happy-looking, were marched in procession to Melville-place, and marshalled in the new school-room. They were followed by his lordship the Mayor, T. D. Anderson, Esq., and the corp ora t e officials bearing the municipal regalia; the Lord Bishop of Cheater; the Yen. Archdeacon Jones, the Rev. Dr. Hume, the Rev. Mr. Banner, Mr. liarmood Banner, Mr. Driukwater, Mr. Alderman Gardner, Mr. Alder man Bennett, and others. Mr. Banner having taken the chair in the schoolroom, the orphan children belonging to the *yrticitrget Asylo s iniingloted the proceedings by singing the 150th psalm, after which the Lord Bishop of Chester, offered up a beautiful prayer, invoking the divine blessing on the beneficent and noble undertaking so happily begun. Mr. BANNER commenced by saying that, as they were reminded just now, in the eloquent sermon they had had the pleasure of hearing, it was little more than twelve months since they were assembled together upon the ground they now occupied, to lay the foundation stone of this institution ; and they were now privileged, by God's blessing, to celebrate the completion of the build ing, and to inaugurate it for the purpose for which it was intended—the Liverpool Orphan Asylum. And first they must most justly return their humble thanks, given to Almighty God, that he had graciously put it into their hearts to commence this labour of love, and that he had stimulated the sympathies of so many kind and benevolent friends who hail contributed cheerfully and liberally to assist them in the prosecution of the work. They were peculiarly indebted to the clergy, who, following the examble of the venerable Archdeacon, had collected from their congregations the handsome aggregate sum of £7OO. (Hear, hear.) Others of the clergy had kindly promised their assistance, and he had no doubt that this institution would be indebted to the Church for no less a sum than £l,OOO. Nevertheless, generous as all this assistance had been, he would not have them infer that the cup was full—that they had yet quite sufficient funds ; for having erected a home, they had to furnish it, and provide for the comfort of the little children. They did not commence the present undertaking with such advantages as were pos sessed by the institution in Myrtle-street, for there the corporation generously gave them the land; but he must confess that in the present instance the municipal body had treated them liberally iu the purchase of the ground on which the Infant Orphan Asylum now stood. It was now twenty years ago since the Female Orphan Asylum was first thought of, and at that time it happened to devolve upon him to make particular inquiries as to the case of orphanage in Liverpool, and he found that there was already a Female Orphan Asylum doing a great deal of good, but it was a Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum, and about one half its inmates were the children of Protestant parents. He assured them that had no little influence on his mind in the part he had taken in promoting the new Female Orphan Asylum. At the time he was alluding to, the Roman Catholic Institution accommodated about 80 persons, but now they did not muster half that number. They had now an institution under Protestant princi ples, and they had their own orphans to bring up in the principles of the Established Church. That was something to rejoice at. With regard to the orphan institutions generally, he believed the three institutions now established formed a range of institutions for the relief of orphanage which did not exist anywhere else in the kingdom, if any where else in the world. In the metropolis there were noble institutions for orphans, but the dilcultY of getting a child into any of these asylums was great indeed. Now, here they had a very simple mode of admission. Everybody who subscribed to the institutions the sum of a guinea a year had the privi lege of recommending children. There was no par tiality, and the children were placed on the list of candidates, and admitted according to priority of application. They were a great relief to the old venerable Blue-coat Hospital, and, in conjunction with that institution, he believed they relieyed all the orphanage in the town and vicinity. Now, his own opinion was, that these children were consigned to their care. He had a conscientious feeling in his mind with regard to that duty. "It is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish." 'Who then was to take care of them ? Those who God had bleaseci with the msans and ability were to take care of them. (Applause). The MAYOR said he had frequently had the pleasure on behalf of this community, of tendering to the Lord Bishop of Chester, their thanks for his kindness in coming amongst them to assist at the meetings of our different educational and charitable institutions. (Ap plause.) As to himself, he felt it a privilege to assist in the inauguration of the Infant Orphan Asylum. He was sure his fellow-townsmen would wish him to be present to-day as their representative, not only to testify their sense of the impertance of snch institution as this, but to testify their high esteem and regard fox that gentle man who, through so many years, had laboured with so much zeal and perseverance to establish these schools and who had at last carried out his scheme so success fully to completion. (Applause.) He was sure he ought, on behalf of the community, to congratulate Mr. Banner on the happy completion of his fondest wishes. His worship concluded by proposing a vote of thanks to the Bishop, a compliment whiph was warmly accorded. His Loansntp, in acknowledging the vote, said he came there partly from a sense of clUty and partly from its being a real gratification and pleasure to his own heart to come, for he had been mixed .np, since he became the bishop of the diocese, with every stage in connection with the building of these asylums. He came to show his goodwill and sympathy, not to seek thanks, or attaching any other importance to his pre sence beyond showing how heartily he sym pathised with Mr. Banner and other kind friends who were doing all they could for the relief of a class whose claims came near to every heart that had any spark of feeling or kindness in it. It was always a pleasure to him to see the highly influential men who filled the office of Mayor coming forward•to give their countenance to every good work, and he did no injustice to the predecessors of the present Mayor in saying that the office was never filled by any man yet who had; throughout the whole of his course in Liver pool, been a more consistent and munificent supporter of everything connected with either the moral, religious, or social improvement of the place. (Applause.) His lordship concluded by moving a vote of thanks to the Mayor. Mr. BANNER in seconding the proposition, alluded to the schools which his worship had established in Everton, at his own expense, and his support of reformatory The yen. Archdeacon JONES, in a few observations, concurred in everything the bishop had said, and expressed a hope that the clergy would not fail to plead the cause of the institution from their pulpits as fre uently at pf.',::it!;. Th e MAyon having acknowledged the compliment paid to him, Mr. pal l ir ! es declared the institution now to he opened ; and the interesting proceedings terminated MERSEY DOCKS AND HARBOUR BOARD.

The proceedings of this committee included a recom mendation to accept tenders for various articles required for general purposes in the department of the engineer. A letter from Messrs. Barker and Hignett, of Chester, directing the 14tte4tion of the 4040 to the injury caused by the dock works at Birkenhead to the property of Mr. Rigby, at Seacombe, had been read and referred to the engineer. On the motion of Mr. Brocklebank the proceedings were confirmed. The proceedings of the Marine Committee, and of the Warehouse Committee, were read and confirmed without comment. PILOT COMMITTEE. The proceedings of this committee were read, and their confirmation was moved by Mr. Boult. Mr. SMITH said week after week he found that captains were summoned before the committee for refusing to sign certificates for inward pilotage, that the committee ordered them to pay, and they did pay accordingly. Now it struck him that there must be a great waste of the time of the committee, and he asked could not a penalty be indicted for that sort of thing, with a view to preventing the time of the eommittee being taken up. The SOLICITOR feared not. Mr. &nix—Then it is a great misfortune. The SOLICITOR said there were summary powers of distress, but nothing beyond that. Mr. BOULT said there was no practical inconve nience experienced by the committee. Mr. MONDEL suggested that the board should instruct the examiners for coasting steam licenses, to examine and pass the apprentices for the regular pilot service—a duty that at present was performed by a sub-committee of the Pilot Committee. The CHAIRMAN said Mr. Mondel had better see the chairman of the committee on the matter, and bring it forward again next week. DOCKS AND QUAYS COMMITTEE. The proceedings of the committee for the manage ment of the docks and quays comprised a recommenda tion to appoint John Barman, a dock gateman ; and another recommendation to fix five wood slides and brick-up a bay of the shed on the north side of Wel lington-dock, at a cost of £250. The proceedings were confirmed on the motion of Mr. Lockett. The CHAIRMAN said he was sorry to have to report the death, yesterday, of Mr. Cholmley, the deck master of Brunswick-dock. The matter was referred to the Docks and Quays Committee. The Master Porterage Committee had not anything of importance to report, and the proceedings were con firmed on the motion of Mr. Arnold. This was the whole of the general business before the board. TAKINQ THE CENSUS.—On Monday a bill will be introduced by Government into the House of Commons to take the census of the population. The population of the United Kingdom is estimated at upwards of twenty-nine MEEIINO OF MEDICAL PR A CTITIONEES.—A meeting of medical practitioners was held yesterday afternoon at the Freemasons'-hall, to promote the success of Mr. Pigot's measure for effecting reforms in the system of metkai po9r-4aw rciief‘ PYNE AND HARRISON COMPANY AT THE THEATRE ROYAL. A very crowded audience was attracted to the Theatre Royal last night to hear the opera of " Satanella," Mr. Balfe's latest composition for the Pyne and Harrison company. Absurd as the plot and libretto are, they have been adapted by Mr. Balfe to afford Miss Louisa Pyne many opportunities of displaying her elaborate fioriture and vocalisation, and there are some striking scenic effects. Some of the choruses are very pretty, and " The power of love" is always enthusiastically received. When the opera was produced here last year, Mr. Harrison gave up the part of Count Rupert to Mr. St. Albyn and took that of Arimanes, instead of Mr. Weiss. He was very successful, both in appearance, acting, and singing as the demon, and we coald not help wishing that he had retained the character last night, for Mr. Grattan Kelly was very in effective. Miss Louisa Pyne was in her most brilliant phase, and threw herself into the extra ordinary part she had to play with the utmost abandon, and was most deservedly and loudly applauded. Miss Pilling performed the character of The Princess Stella with great spirit, and sang the music with bril liancy and finish. Miss Fanny Cruise took the part of Sella prettily, but was scarcely powerful enough for it in some passages. We were disappointed in Mr. Har rison's Covizt Rupert. The character does not suit him nearly so well as that of Arimanes did ; and Mr. St. Albyn was very satisfactory as the Count, so that the change was doubly to be regretted. Mr. H. Corri took his old character, The Pirate, with effect ; and Mr. G. Honey and Mr. St. Albyn made the most of Hortensius and Karl. "The Crown Diamonds" will be played this evening, in which both Miss Louisa Pyne and Mr Harrison are very great HORRIBLE AFFAIR. SINKING OF A SHIP, AND LOSS OR MURDER OF HER CAPTAIN AND HIS BROTHER. The following singular and mysterious piece of intel ligence relative to the sinking of the ship Spray, Capt. eete, of Guilford, Conn., off Barnegat, on the-21st ult., is the statement of Captain Webb : The captain of the schooner Thomas E. French states that on the 21st instant, when four miles north of Bar negat, he picked up a yawl boat containing a Chinaman, who stated that he was one of the crew of the sloop Spray, which vessel had that day collided with another sloop, and was so badly damaged that she sank in fifteen minutes after the collision, taking down the captain and his brother, who were the only persons on the sloop besides himself. The Thdmas E. French subsequently put into Little Egg Efgrhour and, there BAN the sloop Lucinda, of Rockaway, in a damaged condition. STATEMENT OP THE CAPTAIN OP THE LUCINDA. The Captain of the Lucinda says that when off Barnegat, on the 21st instant, his vessel collided with the sloop. Spray, and that the two sloops were fast to each other for about fifteen minutes, during which time he saw no person on board the Spray except the China man, who obstinately refused to seek safety on board the Lucinda. The Captain also states that the deck of the Spray was strewn with bedding and various other articles, indi cating that the cabin had been overhauled, and the con tents 'scattered over the deck. is quite positive that there was no person on board the Spray at the time of the accident except the Chinaman, and attributes the collision entirely to his ignorance or malice, as it might have been avoided had the Spray been properly managed. PAMIOULARS LIONCERXING THE MURDERER, The Chinaman, who goes by the name of John Low, or Jackalow, as he is more frequently called, is well known in New York, and has sailed with. Capt. Leete for the past four years. Something over a year ago he stole considerable money from Capt. Leete, and ran away to New Haven, where he was captured by the police and brought back to New York. Such was Capt. Leete's attachment to Jackalow that he refused to press the prosecution, and, on his discharge, imme diately restored him to his position as cook on board the Spray. Ile is reported to be a very revengeful fellow, and, when excited, stops at nothing, how ever desßarate, in order to gratify his revenge. He says that he came to this country seven years ago in the United States steamer Mississippi, and that he is now twenty-six years old. When picked up by the French, and during his continuance on board, he persistently refused to converse with any one, pretending that he did not understand the English langnage, although, when the questions vi-ere not too direct, he evidently understood well enough, and was able to laugh and joke with the crew about the women ; but when anything was said about the Spray, he was not so lively or communicative. When asked why he did not take the captain's money with him, he said that it was locked up in a box and he could not get it. His stories concerning the manner of the captain's death are very conflicting. He first said that the captain was thrown overboard by being struck by the main sheet ; then he said that at the time of the collision the captain was standing on the bowsprit, and was knocked off by the concussion, and finally that he was sick in the cabin ylci unable to get on deck. The latter story is highly improbable, for the Spray left New York the same day the accident happened, and when she sailed both the captain and his brother were known to be in excellent health. In regard to the story about the captain of the Spray being on the bowsprit, the captain of the Lucinda declares that there was no person visible about the Spray excepting the ChA'naman. When picked up he had on a coat belonging to Capt. Leete, in the pockets of which vas found a memoranda m book, upon the fly leaf of which was written iu pencil "J. F. Leete, Guilford, Ct." The book contained various memorandums concerning the sale or purchase of hay, onions, and potatoes. In one of the pockets of the coat was found a letter written to Capt. Leete, by Calvin M. Leete, dated Guilford, Dec. 12, 1859, and relating to the disposition of a cargo of onions. Besides these, he had with him in the boat a hatchet, a compass, and a quantity of provisions, showing that he at least had abundant time to leave the sloop before she sank. Jackalow manifested considerable uneasiness while on board the French ; when Captain Webb left his vessel in the harbour to go on shore, he jumped into the boat and iAsisted upon accompanying him, which he did. As soon as a landing had been effected he sprang ashore and disappeared in the crowd, since which time he has not been seen. He had little or no money with him, and beyond the articles already mentioned, it is not known that he took anything from the vessel. ARR/VAL OF THE WR,EPC.. Early on Sunday morning 'MAC VAPpiVed by trenry it. _Barnes, that the pilot boat, George - Steers, was making fast to the wreck of the Spray, then lying on her beam ends a little to the north of Barnegat, for the purpose of towing her to the city, and that with the next tide she would be up with the wreck. About four o'clock the George Steers arrived, and anchored, with her prize in the stream, ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS BY TTI GEOIICtE riEERS. At 2 p.m. on Wednesday last, when of Barnegat, saw two small sloops come in collision, one of which sank soon after. The smaller of the two vessels, which was bound to the northward, had her bowsprit carried away, while the other ran in near the beach and anchored. Saw but one man on board the one that anchored, and he in the act of lowering away the yawl, and the vessel apparently sinking. Several vessels were quite near at that time, some standing south and some to the north. Should have gone to her but supposed that she would receive assistance from those nearer by. We then proceeded to the city ; went to sea again the following day, and on the 24th inst., at noon, four miles off Barnegat, came upon a sloop anchored and sunk, lying upon her beam ends, and completely stripped of her rigging. Immediately resolved to make an effort to get her into port, and made fast to the mast, which came out, and the vessel righted, Set the mast adrift ; took the vessel in tow and brought her to the city. Could not ascertain her name, as her stern was under water ; but upon examining the wreck saw something floating in the cabin, which proved to be a portion of a table, under which was a large burgee with the name Spray upon it, leaving no doubt as to the identity of the wreck. The Spray is a sloop of about thirty tons, painted a flesh colour outside, with yellow and red streaks ; bul warks, inside painted green, and the deck a light lead colour. Has a flush deck with centre board, and has had her port quarter stove and patched. About half of a man's shirt was clinging to the side, stained with something having the appearance of blood or iron rust. EXCITING} SCENE Early on Monday a large and excited crowd assembled upon the Battery, in the vicinity of where the wreck lay, and, notwithstanding the keen and chilling wind that ca me up from the bay, maintained their position with remarkable constancy throughout the day, awaiting anxiously but patiently the result of the investigation then being made, and watching with almost breathless anxiety each article as it was fished out of the cabins and brought on to the deck, momentarily expecting to see a bloated and mangled corpse come up ; for the general opinion among the crowd was strong that Capt. Leete and his brother had been murdered, and that their bodies were then in the cabin. A NEW P HASE IN THE MYSTERY. At the time the Chinaman was picked up by the Tho mas E. French, he stated to Captain Webb that the Spray was bound to Virginia for a cargo of oysters, and that she left New York on the day that the collision with the Lucinda took place. It turns out, however, that the Spray left New York for Q4ilf9rd on Thursday week, in company with the sloop Gem, Captain Bennett, and that the two vessels kept together until off the Nor walk Islands, when they parted company, and the Spray put into Norwalk. From that time (Thursday) until the following Sun day nothing is known concerning the movements of the Spray; but on Sunday she was seen by several pilots passing through Hellgate, bound towards New York, and apparently in charge of a single man. This con duns the statement of captair4 Pf the PiciAda, Ihat at the time of the collision no person was seen on board the Spray excepting the Cninaman. The next that is known of the Spray is her collision with the Lucinda on Wednesday, 21st inst., seven days after she sailed from New York for Guilford. This gives the affair an entirely new phase, and tends to strengthen the convic tiou that Jackalow is the murderer. APPEARANCE OF THE CABIN. From the position in which the sloop lay—her side to the beach—it was impossible to haul her up high enough to leave the cabin entirely free from water, and the officers, therefore, laboured under serious disadvan tage in prosecuting the search. By means of boat hooks, however, they succeeded in getting out a great variety of articles, including several articles of wearing apparel belonging to the missing men. As the tide con tinued to fall, a chest of drawers was discovered, near the companion way, which had evidently been rifled, as the contents were found in a very disordered state, and two of them were half drawn out, showing that whoever had opened them last had left them hurriedly, and neglected to shut them. The depth of the water pre vented the officers from going into the cabin, and it is therefore impossible to arrive at its precise condition. ARTICLES TAKEN FROM THE CABIN. Among the first articles fished up was the captain's bed. Upon the sheet, and on the tick near the head of the bed, were several large stains of blood, and the woodwork around was bespattered with blood in several places. In the captain's berth was also found a heavy three-cornered scraper, which is proba bly the instrument with which the bloody deed was committed; for there is no longer a doubt that a murder has been committed on board the Spray. A daguer- xeotype of a young lady, supposed to be a sister of the murdered man, was found in the bureau; a pair of heavy navy pistols, belonging to the captain, neither of which were loaded, but one of them had evidently been recently discharged ; a pocketbook was found open and empty, and a small pine box, veneered in imitation of mahogany, was brought up, which upon examination was found to have been broken open and its contents removed. This is supposed to have been the captain's money box. A telegraphic despatch, dated Guilford, Nov. 8, 1859, and directed to F. J. Leete, New York, which read as follows :—"Wait, and I will come down to-night.--E. J. Leete." This is supposed to have come from his brother, who was murdered with him. In the captain's berth was found a card of a Seamans' Bethel, inviting seamen to attend divine worship at 47, Almon-street—the place not mentioned. At the top of the card were these words—" Are you ready for death, judgment and eternity ;" and at the bottom—" Friend, Jesus invites you to heaven; will you go ?" STATEIgENT OF A FAIEND OF CAPTAIN LEPTE. A friend of Captain Leete informs us that both the murdered men have been repeatedly warned to beware of the Chinaman, and that since his theft of the money, something over a year ago, the friends of Captain Leete have earnntly entreated him to have nothing further to do with Jackalow, who was known to be a sharp, 'shrewd and revengeful fellow, whose cupidity was not restrained by any conscientious regard for right and wrong. In fact, it seems to have been the settled con viction among all who knew the parties, that sooner or later one or both of the Leetes wonld fall victims to either the malice or cupidity of the treacherous Chinaman. Elijah, the youngest son of the two brothers, was the general kusiness man, and attended to the financial part of their business, and had, it seems, often expressed himself anxious to get rid of Jackalow ; but his brother always insisted upon keeping him, because he was a a good cook, and a handy man about the vessel. Elijah yielded to his brother, because the latter had most to do with the sloop, and was on her most of the time. The Spray was an old vessel, and had been owned by the Leetes about one year. It was their intention to make but one more trip, and then sell her. Our informant gives it as his opinion that the two men were murdered soon after leaving Norwalk, on the 15thinstant, that the bodies were then thrown over board, and that it was Jukelow's intention to sail to the coast of Virginia, abandon the vessel, and then escape with the money. From the memorandum book belongitit to Captain Leete, which was found upon the person of the Chinaman, it is supposed that he had only about three or four hundred dollars with him when he left New York, and it is the opinion of those best acquainted with him that the most of tlAis motley was in specie, as it is known that he exchanged a small amount in bills for gold the day hefare he sailed from New York. the precaution to place upon his ankles a pair of shackles. Jackalow is about five feet four inches in height, and rather slender built. He appeared to be in good spirits, smiled when he conversed, but his countenance indi cated treachery. He had on a brown sack overcoat, said to belong to Captain Leete, a monkey jacket, new overalls over his pants, and a new cap. *arting LATEST BETTING. MANCHESTER.

Blue Jack Richmond Loiterer ~ C¢PTUAE QV THE SUPPOSED MURDERER. At half-past eleven o'clock on Monday forenoon the engineer and brakeman on the Philadelphia train, coining into Jersey city, reported that, as they crossed the Hackensack Bridge, a man had been seen making for a piece of woods, and, from his appearance, they believed he was the Chinaman belonging to the Spray, who was picked up from a yawl boat at Barnegat, and who escaped from Captain Wood on Saturday morning at Jersey city. Two Jersey city officers started out in pursuit, and an hour later returned for further assistance. Some eight officers then went out, but before they arrived in the vicinity where the man was supposed to be lurking, the Chinaman had been taken into custody by John Sanford, Henry Wilson, William Jacobus, and John Douglass, who are engaged at work on the railroad bridge. ACCOUNT OF Tlir ARREST. Their account of the arrest is as follows :—At noon, while the above-named persons were at dinner, except young Jacobus, a man attempted to cross the railroad bridge, when Jacobus turned him off, as it was against the rules. After he was gone, Jacobus went into the house ; and mentioning the fact that a man had attempted to cross the bridge, remarked that he believed from his appearance that he was Jackalow, the Chinaman of whom they had read in the morning. Wilson said that he believed 51,000 reward had been offered for his arrest; when the four men concluded to go in pnrsnit as soon as they had laid out work for the hands to attend to during their absence. With spyglass they could see a man lurking in the cedars about half-a-mile distant, and appa rently eiadeavouring to make for the plank road unobserved. Jacobus and Douglass started in that direction, while Sanford and Wilson went to Newark on the cars, hired a horse, and drove up the road in order to intercept the man. They returned, however, without having accomplished their object, and while standing at the plank bridga tollgate, Jackalow came up the road to cross the bridge, the men appearing not to notice him. As he was in the act of paying the toll, one of the men asked, hint he was not the man that at tempted to cross the railroad bridge. He replied that he did. They then Asked him whuf ue anu ne rephect taut he was an East India man. Becoming satisfied from his conversation and dress that he was the man, they told him that lke must go with them. One of the men, whAe behind him, called out "Jackalow," when the prisoner whirled round suddenly, but immediately afterwards denied that that has his name. The men then stopped a train of cars, and brought their prisoner to Jersey -street about four o'clock, THE SEARCH. At the depot, Assistant-Superintendent Woodruff searched the prisoner, and found in the legs and seat of his pantaloons a bag containing $24 11e, oue stocking containing $44 lie, and a canvas bag in which was $324 5Qc in gold and fifty cents in silver. All the money was in specie, and it may be readily imagined that Jackalow found locomotion rather difficult under the circumstances. THE EXAMINATION. The prisoner was then taken to the pity prison, followed by a great crowd of people, anxious to get a look at him. The prisoner was at once conveyed to the cells and locked up. As the news spread, people came flocking from all di;ections, completely filling the station house, 411 d blacking the streets around it. Shortly after five o'clock the prisoner was taken before Recorder Bedford, handcuffed, when Mr. Sand ford made a formal complaint, charging Jackalow with the murder of Captain Leete and his brother on the high seas, while on board the sloop Spray. The Recorder then asked tho accu r sed the following questions : Q. What is your same ? A. Sam Patch. (Laughter.) Q. Where do you belong ? A. I belong to sloop Spray, of Guilford. Two week ago Captain Leete, brother and me, Sam Patch; another sloop come and struck and capsized us; both overboard; me down below. Recorder—That will do. That's enough.

The Queen is at Aldershott, and yesterday reviewed the troops. The colonelcy of the 10th Foot is vacant by the death of Colonel Sir Thomas M'Alahon. Lord Broughton has taken Tidwortb, the late Mr. John Assheton Smith's seat in Hants, for a term of years. The Spaniard Manzans, who was convicted at the recent Wilts assizes for murder, was executed yesterday at Devizes, It is rumoured that her Majesty, on the 20th of June, will open the New Museum at Oxford, in the Parks, in person, accompanied by the Chancellor, the Earl of Derby, and many others of the most distinguished members of the university, both resident and non-resident. SENTENCE OF DEATH COMMUTED. --The Lord Lieu tenant has commuted the sentence of death passed at the late Kerry assizes upon Morgan, for the murder of his wife, to penal servitude for life. The state of the couriers mind was the main ground for the merciful interposition of his Excellency. A ROYAL "PticasENA.DE."—The journals speak of daily promenades taken by the King of Prussia ; but, unfortunately, it is not his Majesty himself who can take any exercise worth mentioning, as, baring almost lost his intelligence, he is lifted int o a carr i age, and driven slowly about the grounds, and that is all: CANNON OF THE 16TH CENTURY. —The Spaniards found at Tetuan the cannons taken from the Portuguese by the Moors, ou the occasion of Don Sebastian's unfor tunate expedition in the sixteenth eentury. They have all been sent to Portugal by the Spanish government, and will no doubt find a place in the Lisbon Museum. TRAINING OF CUCI7:4I3EIII3.—It is a pretty sight to see a cucumber-house in full bearing when cultivated in the vine fashion. The long fruits, hanging from every foot of rafter, and the large bright amber flowers peer ing from beneath the broad, rough, green leaves, present a peculiarly bright picture in the depth of winter, when all is bare without. —The Garden that Paid the Rti,t, CURIOUS PHENOMENON.---A curious ornithological occurrence has been witnessed in the poultry -yard of Mr. George Hooke, of Guildford. A cock pigeon has paired with a duck, and sits upon the eggs laid, the duck mean while keepiiw,„ watch ty the side of h er novel partner. This extraordinary state of things has continued for Qr 74: l : - .lv e C:l3oL'i LASUALTY.—The sue or a nne Young woman, daughter of Mr. Ward, farmer, of East Ville, has been sacrificed to the incautious depositing of arsenic in an improper place. The deceased, who was about 22 years of age, went to a cupboard for some sulphur for medicinal purposes, and took from the shelf what she conceived to be that drug in a powdered state, and swallowed it with some treacle. Medical assistance was promptly procured, but was unfortunately too late ; she gradually sank and died. GANQ OF JUVENILE THIEVES.---The police autho rities in Paris have just tried a band of ten boys, aged from eleven to sixteen, for committi ng numerous thefts of articles exposed for sale at shop doora or in the markets. The band had a captain, a lieutenant, sergeant, and corporal; and every member of it bore a nickname, such aS" Saucepan," " I;4olish," " Gray C ow, " " My Aunt," Turnip," od so on. One of the gang was alleged to have committed as many as thirty-four thefts, another twenty-eight, another twenty-four, and the others from nineteen down to two. PUTTING TOBAcCO INTQ ATEA-XETTLE.—Two young fellows—John Palmer, a millwright at Mr. Bell's, and Matthew Martin, in the employ of Mr. Nelson —went into an inn, to get something to drink, or to see the girls. They were in the kitchen, and it was about tea time. After putting the tea-kettle upon the fire, one of the servant girls went up stairs to clean herself; and during her absence the prisoner Palmer lifted up the lid of the kettle, and dropped some twist tobacco into the water. Ten persona had their tea made of this poisonous and disgusting mixture ; and in consequence they were all severely attacked with sickness and vomiting. The case of the landlady was very serious—they thought she watild have died. Happily the children got milk that afternoon, otherwise this exceedingly foolish joke might have had a fatal end, The tenders for £2,660,000 of these debentures was opened yesterday. The offers, about 400 i n number, were read seriatim, the majority being at prices between 106 aad 106 k. The sealed paper containing the mini mum was then opened, and the rate was announced to be 105. The tenders above that figure amounted to only £1,570,000, and those below to 4'116,000. There remains consequently £1,080,000, or 40 per cent. of the proposed total of £2,650,000 unallotted. The transaction is not regarded by any means as a success. The result will convince Colonial borrowers that it is not expedient to trust to the tondon money market for the means of launchin into unlimit e d expen di ture. The distArbance al luded to yesterday occurred en board the Edgar, 90, screw, Captain Kato; flagsh ip of Rear-Admiral I. E. Erskine, second in comm and of the channel fleet. It is stated that the marines first dis played signs of insubordination relative to leave on the Monday, which was renewed on the Tuesday, on which day a portion of the ship's company joined, when the re _ . ensued the usual routine pr ac ti se d o f late on such dis graceful occasions. Five of the ringleaders, com prising two marines, one marine artillery, and . two t seamen, were sent on b oar d th e Vi c t or y, w here is supposed th ey w i ll be tried for the i r mut i nous conduc t, Various rumours are in circulation as to the cause of the disturbance and extent.
