EATON, Broker, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1856, THE DAY'S NEWS Intelligence from nearly all parts of the world have reached us during the last few days. From the United States, the chief item of news is that relating to the election of President. The vote was taken on Tuesday, the 4th-inst., but there was not sufficient returns received at New York to enable us to declare who was actually the successful candidate. It would, however, appear that Mr. Buchanan was, of the two leading candidates, the most likely to be the new President. The Fremont party, through their organs in all the leading cities and towns, were declaiming upon the direful effects which Mr. Buchanan's election would entail, not only upon the United States, but the world at large ; and some of them argued, that his advent to office would be the means of a long and bloody war with the great powers of Western Europe, as he would, no doubt, make strenuous efforts to annex the island of Cuba to the United States. We have given at some length, in another part of to•day's impression, full details of the news from the United States, to which we would direct the readers' attention. The Arabia has brought us late news from Cali fornia, but it is devoid of any interest or import ance. The mining intelligence was satisfactory ; and there was another case of a terrific murder, for which the " people" stepped forward and took signal vengeance upon the murderer, and hanged him upon the spot, but, before doing so, they put out the lights, and hurled the unfortunate wretch into eternity in the dark. Some interesting news froin Central America and the South Pacific is to hand. From these it will be seen that that quarter of the globe is by no means in a settled state. Great Britain is about to give battle in New Grenada, the British Consul having hauled down his.flag, and the English fleet was about to bom bard the cities and ports of the Republic. The intelligence by the Overland Mail does not contain much that is in%portant. Preparations were being made to send off a military force to bring the Shah of Persia to his senses. The Persian troops at Furah had seized the Governor, and sent him to Persia. In other respects the most profound 'tranquility reigned throughout every part of India, and the local journals have not so much as a frontier disturbance to chronicle. His excellency Lord Canning had received the sanction of the home authorities to adopt the necessary measures in order to publish a quarterly statement of the revenue of the country, together with the probable amount of prospective expenditure, in cluding a statement of the amount of cash in the local treasuries throughout India made up to a par ticular day. Great good was expected to result to the commercial interests of India by the adoption of this system of publicity. The new Four-and-a Half per Cent Loan had received a slight fillip, inasmuch as about 30,C00/ had been paid into the Treasury on account of it, but it was still regarded with disfavour. Lord Dunkellin, whose disgraceful conduct at a late ball was communicated by a former mail, had left Calcutta for Bombay, at the desire of his noble relative, Lord Canning. His office as military secretary had been conferred, during his absence, upon Major Bouverie. Later accounts from Australia, extending to the 2nd of September, are to hand, per the Overland mail. They do not add much news to that previously received. The elections were proceeding in Victoria, but nothing decisive respecting them had become known. It is gratifying to know that the agricultural position of the colony was rapidly progressing. The accounts from the mines were most satisfactory. The weather was exceedingly wet, and frost of unusual severity had also pre vailed. From the Continent we have some interesting intelligence. With the view of hastening the meeting of the second Conference, it is said that Russia has signified that she abandons her claim to the Isle of Serpents. Under these circumstances the Conference will have to decide only on the Bolgrad question. Our Paris advices inform us that a decree in the Moniteur fixes the Convocation of the Council General of the Scino for the 24th inst. It is rumoured that the Government discountenances the Russian railroads, and has intimated to the semi-official journals, that they will not be allowed to publish any advertisements with reference to the same. The receipts of the indirect taxes for the month of Ootober, show an incr ea s o of t77,000f. on the corresponding month of las t Prince Frederick William of Prussia is to visit Paris on his departure from England—a con vincing proof it is thought of the re-establishment of friendly relations between Prussia and France. It is said that the determination of the Emperor to abandon his contemplated visit to Fontainebleau has excited great satisfaction in Paris, itnd 'even the persons who have received counter orders to their previous invitations derive consolation from the state of the weather, which is most hostile to out of door amusements. The presence of his Majesty in Paris will speedily dispel the uneasiness which had been created by the complicated events of the past month. The very fact of the Emperor having announced his intention of returning to the Tuileries has disheartened the partisans of the Russian alliance, and their organs in the press maintain a significant silence. Private letters from Madrid state that there is a rumour in that city, to the effect that the younger sons of Don Carlos, and also naturally the men who have remained 'faithful to their cause, are about to acknowledge the Queen, It is hoped that this event will take place before the fete day of the august Princess who occupies the throne. Doubts are still entertained that Count de Montemolino will do what his brothers, ,Don Juan, Don Fernando, and Don Sebastian are said to be prepared to do; and it is not known whether, in case they recognise the Queen, these Princes will come into Spain, or will remain abroad. The Epoca says that the salary of members of the Royal Council is to be 60,000 reals. It is now said that M. Pacheco has sent in his resignation as ambassador at London, and that it has been ac cepted. Our latest accounts state that in addition to her political miseries, Spain is threatened, firstly, and, secondly, with a monetary crisis, from the quantity of specie gone out of the ith a famine ountry to pay ware of the in e government is not of these r and ext two con rho of since i 3 contact •, with the National militia, which it could not abide, is become Absolutist, and the whole of the old Progresista party have become Democratic. A telegraphic despatch from Paris, dated last night, contains the following :—The Correspondence Prussianne publishes to-day an article directed against the Swiss press, in which it states that Prussia will, herself, exercise, in a direct manner, her authority over the Canton of Neufchatel, and that the Government of Berlin will assert the recognition of her sovereignity. Several local incidents of interest, and others of a painful and melancholy character, have occurred, to which we have only space on the present occa sion to refer. Her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Family have been placed in mourning by the death of the Prince Leningen. The prince was son to the Duchess of. Kent, by her first husband, and therefore step-brother to her Majesty. Our cotemporary, the Observer, of yesterday, alluding to the vacant judgeship, says it was only on Friday that Sir A. Cockburn consented to accept the office, and remarks :—" From the moment of the vacancy it was naturally assumed that the Government would be desirous to secure the eminent services of Sir A. Cockburn in a position so arduous and dignified. The only question was as to his acceptance of the office. . Had he con. sulted his own first impressions he would have remained in the more active and ambitious place which he occupied in the House of Commons, where no lawyer ever made so much way in so short a time, under ten years. He was first elected for Southampton in 1847. There is no doubt that the House of Commons was the congenial atmosphere of Sir A. Cockburn. Had he consulted his own feelings and ambition be would have remained there. But the advice of friends was urgent. And still more —we regret to say—the state of his health ren dered it precarious to go on with the excitement of the House of Commons, superadded to the heavy duties of the Attorney-Generalship. Sir A. Cock burn will be a loss to the House of Commons, of which he was an admitted ornament on all sides. But we may hope that he will shine in another sphere, where stars are also unhappily declining." Nothing has as yet been decided upon respecting the Solicitor-Generalship, Sir R. Bothell having been appointed Attorney G eneral. NORTH AMERICA. The Canadian steamer, City of Baltimore, arrived in the Mersey this morning between three and four o'clock, but up to the hour 'of going to press our usual files had not been landed. BODY FOUND.—The body of a woman, named Jane Watts, 33 yells of age, who recently resided in Lichfield street, was found in the canal on Saturday. THE ORGAN AT ST.

Visitors, Mr. E. Watts and Mr. T. Kirk. Honorary secretary and treasurer, Joseph Kitchen, Esq. Ore Saturday morning, a 'fire broke out in the cow house belonging to Mr. John Birch, of Orrell, farmer, and consumed a large quantity of property. The engines from Temple Court, with Mr. Hewett and his efficient brigade, were in prompt attendance, and being assisted by the people of the locality, and having a supply water at hand, the fire was got under, not before considerable damage was done. The property is insured to the extent of £BOO, but at present the loss could not be properly estimated. ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER. —As two boatmen were rowing on Saturday towards a ship lying in the river the fender of one of the ferry steamers, which was at the time approaching the landing-stage, struck their boat and upset her. The two men were precipitated into the water, but were fortunately almost immediately picked up b y the Woodside steamer. Had not the steamer rendered such prompt assistance, it is probable that the men would have been swept away by the current, which was very strong, and drowned. HANCOCK'S INKSTAND. —One of the most desirable objects in an inkstand is to avoid the exposure of the ink to the air as much as possible, so as to ensure its l im p id supply. This is accomplished in the above inkstand.—lllustrated London News. [We have seen the article here referred to, and can safely endorse the description of our London cotemporary. Valuable MSS. are often damaged by careless clerks " or ser vants through the upsetting of an inkstan d, but the Patent Pneumatic Inkstand" offers a guarantee against such mis fortunes.] —The Northampton.Herald. —Advt.

CORONER'S INQUESTS. — On Saturday, the Coroner held the following inquests :—On the body of Catherine Figan, who resided in Great Crosshall street, and was 36 years of age. She was addicted to drinking, and died suddenly. Death was hastened by her intemperate habits, and the jury found accordingly.—On the body of Martha Scattergood, aged 62 years, who was found dead in bed. n examination, it was ascertained that death the result of natural causes.—On the body of James Carson, who was killed by falling into the hold of the Persia, Royal Mail steamer, in the sloyne. Verdict, " Accidental death." FIRE ON BOARD A BARQUE.—At nine o'clock on Satur day night a fire broke out on board a barque named the Sea, lying in the George's Doc k. The fire blazed fiercely for some time, and great alarm w as felt lest it might spread, and, owing to the position of the vessel, cause, perhaps, incalculable mischief. As, however, the flame was principally in the vicinity of the cabin, and there was a large pressure of water upon the quay, it was got out in about an hour by mea ns of the engines from Temple court. The captain, named Duncan, stumbled during the confusion which prevailed, fell into the hold, and received some severe injuries, The cause of the fire breaking out is not known, as the shipkeeper was absent at the time. FIRES YESTERDAY.—A fire broke out yesterday morning in a cellar under a warehouse Ma in nn Island. The cells r was kept :by a person named Wm. Kitchen, a block, pump, and mast maker. Mr. Hewitt was immediately on the spot, and the fire was got under by the engines before much damage had been done. —In the afternoon, the shop of a person named Cooke, in Pitt street, took fire, and considerable damage was sustained before 'the flames were discovered. When the fire engines from Temple court arrived, the flames were bursting out of the shop windows. Fortunately, however, the fire was got under in a few minutes, but not bet re the whole of the shop's contents, consisting of provisions and grocery, had been destroyed. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. The steam-ship Arabia arrived in the Mersey from Boston, via Halifax, on Saturday at midnight. She does not report anything new respecting the Cotto►► Market. According to the latest private a,lvices from New York, the late heavy purchases at New Orleans had not commenced to clear for sea, - an 1 the exports continued light. The buying for England, which had commenced, had stopped the decline at the South, and an upward movement had set in. The receipts for the week ending November 4, were put down at 91,000 bales, making a total of 448,000 since first of September, against 481,000 at same date last year. The total exports this year are put down at 102,000 bales against 221,000 at same period in 1855, of the . • former 51,000 Were for Great Britain, against 162,000 at same time last year. The stock remain- ing on hand was put down at 305,000 bales against 289,000 last year. From these figures it appears that there was at latest date, when compared with last year, a decrease of receipts of 33,000 bales, a decrease of exports to Great Britain of rii,ooo, and an increase of stock of 16,000 bales. The Liverpool Cotton market was steady on Saturday. There was a moderate enquiry, but prices of all kinds remained unaltered, and sales reaching 6,000 bales were reported, which included 1,000 taken on speculation and for export. The Liverpool Railway Share Market keeps steady, and has rather an improving. aspect. On Saturday business opened pretty firm, and con tinued so throughout the day, closing firm s but a shade under opening prices. The transactions, however, were rather limited. We append the last quotations of the day :—Aberdeen, 121 'Black burn, 71 74. Chester and Birkenhead, 151 16. Cale donian, 281 28g. Chester and Holyhead, 17; 181. Eastern Counties, 9 9 1-16.

The Money Market begins to manifest increased confidence notwithstanding the high rate of interest charged by the Bank of England and the discount houses in Lombard-street. Rumours are again afloat as to the position of individual establishments, and, discouraging as the aspect of affairs is, it is satis factory to be able to announce that at present little' difficulty has been experienced. It cannot, however, be hoped that, with the rates ruling at their present elevation, perfect freedom from failures can be expected, though there may be.,no doubt establishments, who, from this continuous pressure, will be reduced to the necessity of seeking assistance, or asking temporary forbearance at the hands of their creditors. The state of trade is, nevertheless, such as will not create general distrust or lead to what is usually considered a mercantile disruption. Although very little gold has been taken from the Bank for export to the Continent, there seems to be an impression that if the James Baines does not soon make her appearance there will be a necessity on the part of the Bank of France to reappear in the market as a purchaser. The speculators have not operated with any great free dom on this new advance, and it is presumed they are not inclined to risk the chances attending their transactions, seeing that prices of public securities throughout the whole of the recent stringency have been so well supported. We may further observe upon this subject that the enquiry for money, both at the Bank of England and the discount houses, has not been checked by the additional restrictions recently imposed. On Saturday the pressure con tinued unabated. Under such circumstances, we believe that it is the limited supply rather than the activity in the demand which produces the present inconvenience. On Saturday, the Public Securities were corn-, paratively buoyant, but the transactions limited. Consols for Money were 92k although at one time rather flatter. For the Account they were 93 to 93k during the recognised hours, but they subsequently became flatter, viz., 92k 93. Exche quer Bills ruled heavy, being 3s discount to par, and the Bonds 98t. East India Bonds were 2s discount to 1 s premium. The New Three per Cents were 91k to 92, and the Reduced 91.8 g. Bank Stock brought 217. • The following table shows the fluctuations in Consols during the past week : Lowest Highest Closing prices. prices. prices.

All descriptions of Railway Shares was in better request, with a. general advance of 8 to 1.---and in some cases 1 per cent.. At this - improve ment, however, there was not much animation, but . a moderate business was recorded in Great Western, North Western, Midland, and North Eastern. Towards the close there was less firm ness, and late in the day most of the previous advance was lost, owing to the slight decline of per cent in Consols. Grand Trunk of Canada and Great Western of Canada were a fraction better. We note the sales on Saturday, Caledonians, 561, 57. Eastern Counties, 9. Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee, 331.

Grank Trunk of Canada, A, 11, 10/, 11*. Our reports from the manufacturing districts are not much different from the accounts previously noted in these columns. At Leeds, trade in the warehouses has been very dull, and the few transom Lions entered into have been chiefly in heavy goods. The advance in the rate of discount by the Bank of England, and a strong objection (geuer rally prevalent at this time of year) to increase stock, has prevented any large business being done. At Bradford, the general aspect of the worsted trade is very quite, the continued firmness in the price of wool deterring spinners from operat ing freely. Yarns have been in fair demand at fully former prices. At Manchester, the market for most descriptions of cloths suitable for home consumption, has been firm ; other kinds of printing cloths were in rather less request, but prices ruled firm. Long cloths were in limited demand, and domestics unsaleable. The hosiery trade at Leicester has been rather active, and a good demand for provincial purposes existed, particularly in the glove trade, which is exceed ingly well supported. The commercial advices from New York, per the Arabia, report a stringent Money Market, and the rate of discount was still high. Exchange on London was ruling at 109 k to 1092, with occasional transactions below that figure. The Bank Returns for the week ending Nov. 1, was more satisfactory as regards the specie in the banks than was anticipated. Little change had taken place in Cotton, and there was hardly anything new respect ing the Market. Breadstuffs having arrived freely, were rather easier to buy. Provisions, although firm in price, fell off in demand. The rates of freights varied but little from last week's report. Business at San Francisco was rather quiet. Jobbers have had a fair trade, but from importers hands sales were extremely limited. The New York ad vices of the 4th, say that steam had been put on the boilers of the Adriatic with the best results, and the engines would have steam on in a day or two. Everything promises well. The engineers would probably make several trial trips. The day of sailing is fixed for the 22nd inst. The commercial advices per the Overland Mail inform us that Bombay was rather quiet, in conse quence of the approaching Dewallee holidays, which commenced on the 26th ult. The money market was easy, and no alteration had taken place in the rates of interest ruling at the banks.

Freights had advanced, and commanded very fair rates, in consequence of more vessels being required by Government for the transport service. From Panama we learn that although the legality of the latery-instituted Tonnage Tax is a question still unsettled, and notwithstanding the decided stand taken by the United States Govern ment upon the subject, Gov. Calvo succeeded in compelling the resident clerk of the British Pacific Steam Navigation Company to pay sixty nine dollars and, sixty cents before the steamer Bolivia was permitted to sail with the semi-monthly mail fir the South Coast. The amount was paid under protest, and we presume that is the last that will be heard about it, and English shipowners will centititte to be taxed - and imposed upon -until, perhaps, fifty years hence, that cumbersome piece of machinery known in England as the " Foreign Office," will suddenly awaken to the conviction that the tax is illegal, and solemnly notify New Granada of the conclusion it has arrived at. Our Valparaiso advices_ inform us that, during the fortnight ending September 13, but few com mercial transactions had taken place, owing to the festivities. The imports during the VIM period had been extensive, and from all parts of th. Cottons were dull, with large stocks on hand woollen plentiful, with large sales; linen - goods abundant.

We have, with regret, to record a frightful accident that took place on Saturday mornirk at the south end of the wall of the Albert Dock, and which has been, unfortunately, attended with the loss of one life, and has placed two others in considerable danger. Soon as the news of the calamity was circulated, much anxiety prevailed, and hundreds has tened to the place 'in order to ascertain the truth of the rumour, which, in the first instance, was magnified beyond the truth. The following are the facts of this sad affair : The "Iron King," a fine and favourite tug steamer, was at the south end, of the Albert Dock wall, and, about ten o'clock, it would seem she had her steam up, when suddenly the boiler burst with a loud noise. The greatest consternation prevailed, and we regret to add, not without cause, as one man was killed on the spot, and two others seriously, if not dangerously, injured. The unfortunate man who met his death is named James Pearson ; •he was a fireman on board the boat. The body, which was mangled and scalded, was conveyed to the dead house. The men who are injured are James Faulks, the engineer of the boat, who is discribed as severely scalded about the head and neck; the second is Edward Hewitt, who is also scalded about the neck and shoulders. These two men were speedily conveyed to the hospital, where prompt attention was paid to the injuries sustained by them, and it is hoped that they will get over the consequences of this fearful casualty. At present there is no accounting for the accident. The boat at present lies over against the Albert Dock wall on her port side, but externally she bears no appearance of any thing having happened to her. An inquest will be held on the body of poor Pearson, when perhaps some additional par ticulars may be ascertained, in reference to the cause of the calamity. _ _ The inquest on the body of the poor fellow who was killed by the explosion in the above-named steamer, has been adjourned till to-morrow (Tuesday). THE BURIAL BOARD.—A. meeting of this board was held at the Parish Offices, Brownlow bill, at one o'clock on Saturday, the vice president, Mr. J. R. Jeffery. occupied the chair, and the other members present were Messrs. Wood ruff, Jackson, Thornley, and Corbally. The chairman suggested, that as the only business to be disposed of was that involved in the minutes of the land committee, the consideration of offers of land, which would be wholly a financial qaestion relating to the value and prices of the sites offered, it might be more convenient that the reporters should be requested to withdraw. As, moreover, it was not probable that any decision could be arrives at that day, and the business would therefore be in alt likelihood confined to the reading and consideration of the several tenders, the members present generally agreed in the chairman's sugges tion. The reporters accordingly withdrew. SATURDAY EVENING AMUSEMENTS FOR WORKING MEN. —Amongst the many, societies that have been recently established for the purpose of affording rational amusement for the working classes on the Saturday evening, none, perhaps, have been attended with greater success than the concerts giien by the Working Men's Association in connection with St. Silas'. On Saturday evening there was a good attendance at the large room in Oakes street, and the artistes engaged on the occasion, by the judicious selection of their songs, and the excellent manner in which they were performed, did them great credit, and elicited from the audience a warm burst of applause and some hearty enchores. The evening's amusement was much enjoyed by all present, and we can only hope that such sources of amusement may continue, and that every success may attend upon the promoters. THE NEW MAYOR AT CHURCH.—According to annual custom, the new Mayor, Francis Shand, Esch attended divine service in St. Peter's Church, yesterday. A procession was formed, as usual, of members of the Council, other gen tlemen of the town, the children of the public schoals, the police force, &c. Among the gentlemen who accompanied his Worship were the Town Clerk, Mr. Ewart, M.P., Alderman Toulmin, Mr. Charles Turner, Alderman Samuel Holme, Alderman Parker, Mr. J. A. Tobin, Alderman Bennett, Mr. M‘Gruffie, Mr. I. B. Lloyd, Mr. Halhead, Mr. James Holme, Mr. Johnson, Alderman Daver, Mr. A. Shand, Mr. Clint, Mr. Grerson, Mr. John Aikin, Alderman Horsfall, Mr. Thomas Littledale, Mr. Kitchen, MAj or Greig, Mr. A. Henderson, Mr. Christopher Bushell, &c., &c. Tne sermon was preached by the rector, the Rev. Mr. Campbell, from the text, sth chapter Ecclesiastes, Bth, 9th, and fol lowing verses. A collection or £66 was made in aid of the funds of the Blue Coat Hospital. SHIP LAUNCIS.—On Satur s day Mr. Laird launched from his ship-building yard, Birkenhead, a very beautiful sbip called the " Kirkham." She is an iron-built vessel, and will class at Lloyds for twelve years. Like all iron ships she is very sharp forward, and she promises to combine swiftness with good carrying capacity. She is ,220 feet long, 34 feet beam, and 22 feet deep. She measures for cargo 1,800 tons, and her tonnage, per builder's measure ment, is 1,050. She has been built for Mr. W. W. Jacob, of this town, and is intended for the Calcutta trade. The ceremony of christening the vessel was performed by Mrs. Jacob, wife pf the owner, and, notwithstanding the wetness of the day, a large number of ladies and gentlemen assembled to witness and grace the event. After the launch, which was highly successful, the company were entertained at a dejeuner by the enterprising builder. In consequence of the extensive works now in course of construction at Birkenhead by the Corporation, this is the last vessel which Mr. Laird will launch from these premises until the scheme of dock improvement on that side of the river has been perfected.

The Red Jacket, Captain O'Halloran, bel ong i ng to M essrs . Pilkington and Wilson s " White Star" line, had arrived at Melbourne on the llth of August, with passengers and crew all well. The Red Jacket had light winds and calms to the equator ; but she had a splendid run from the " lino" to Melbourne. Immediately on arrival, an address, signed by every . pas senger in the ship, was, along with a handsome service of silver plate, presented to Captain O'Halloran. The plate bore an appropriate inscription ; and the address declared, in specific terms, the great satisfaction experienced by the passengers with the ship, her findings, and .general com fort. It also acknowledged their obligations to Captain O'Halloran for his able seamanship, his great attention to their comfort, his gentlemanly conduct, and obliging dis position. It likewise spoke, in terms of warm eulogy, of the orderly behaviour, the perfect discipline and courtesy of the officers and crew under his command. Thi s mus t have been peculiarly gratifying to Captain O'Halloran, as it was his first voyage to Melbourne in full 'command of the ship, his previous voyages having been made in the capacity of first officer. The Red Jacket was advertised to sail from Melbourne for Liverpool on or about the 25th of September. She had already been taken up for a large and valuable cargo, and berths had been bespoke on board of her for• a number of passengers. The James Baines sailed for Liverpool on the ath of August. ROBBERY AND HORRIBLE BRUTALITY ON BOARD AN AMERICAN SHIP On Saturday Mr. Mansfield was engaged nearly the whole of the day in investigating a c har g e p referred agaieSt' the three principal officers of the Ocean Alonarc Th e whic h r ecently arrived in this port from New York. case had been partially heard on a previous d a y , but as question arose as to the power of the magistrate to interfere: the ship being an American vesse l, and the crew entered as American citizens, it was adjourned until t he above daft when it was decided to proceed with the bearing. 111,1; parties accused are William Da Courcy, the chief mao the who had the sole manageme n t of the ship durin ate, Ch a rles voyage, and who calls himself an Englishman ; Woodward, the second mate , suppo sed to be an America n ; and William Miller, the fourth mate, stated to be a SoP teb ; man. The parties were charged with plundering the or e f of all their money and clothes , end with various -ear acts f cruelty to them on the voyage. Mr. Snowball apped.te conduct the prosecution, while Mr. Aspinall, instructed Did Mr. Bremner, appeared for the prisoner De Cour* ts Mr. Cross for 'Woodward and Miller. After the 'fr.; argument had been settled, and Mr. Mansfield had decide; upon going into the charges preferred, the first. Wi tli o e o called was one of the crew, William M'Gill, who sad it the first day that we got to sea the two mates, Woodward, knocked me down on the deck, and, aft kicking him in various parts of the body, robbed hi°, 4 ., seventeen dollars, some pieces of gold coin, and some eilv`;o They took him out of the forecastle into the ol a _a hatch, Where he was thrown down.

During the remainder of the *°Y ru gi he, as well as all the others of the crew, were dread sear treated, but were afraid of making any, complaints for „' OO l of being thrown overboard. When they came to Livery Miller it they had to lay nine days in the river, After the sh ip was moored, Miller and Woodward came into the fo t r e „ c3 toolt De Courey stood at the door, and, by his orders, tu e JThey• away all his clothes of any value, and took them hale robbed the whole of the crew of everything they dered, were all afraid to complain, for fea r of being ir:V, r ,,, but From the time we left New York there was et"' a nd rows on board ; the prisoners were always be did vot., kicking the sailors till they were insensible of know what they were about. A great number ot u• - , k i n g were called to corroborate the above facts, as to the to of the clothes while the.ship was in the river, but, e ti "Wer to stay, although they all agreed as to the maid fae A t9 ' jae , disagreed as to the time the robbery was cocareit te ' . of the tectivo officers Cousins and Scat , who had ebare -,, spa case, next produced a very large quantity of weari c b yea parel, which had been found is the possession of the ,t i t o prisoners when they went and searched the ship.

Mr. Aspinall briefly addressed the bench on so of his client, and contended that it was the cnst on on 6.‘:),.srs American ships for the officers to take away the sa`'` clothing when they entered a port, for the purpose of PI; 'venting them from leaving the ship ; and argued that t ' a i evidence of the witnesses was so contradictory, that it lf, e t, impossible to be relied on, and that no jury could corto on such evidence ; therefore, he called upon the ben °. a re discharge them. Mr. Mansfield said : Certainly, theo,ifit. so many discrepancies in the statements made by the he nesses, that no jury could possibly convict; therefigy,,,, felt bound to discharge them on the charge of roD,DtTat But he could not help expressing it as his opiniovA t hiS there had been some most disgraceful scen6s on boar d , • eri a ship.
