TILE EARL or ELLESMERE is on a visit to Runcorn, ac-
companied by his second son, and Faraday Smith, Esq. The
party are staying at the Bridgewater-house, Bottom Locks.
CHESTER CATTLE FAIR, AUGUST 7.—There was a very
poor fair, and little or no business transacted. There were
shown 198 cattle, 891 sheep, and 321 pigs. Beef and mutton
averaged about 7d. per lb.
On Wednesday morning, the body of Samuel Hulse, a.
captain of a narrow boat, was taken out of the canal, at the
bottom locks, Runcorn, and conveyed to the Bridgewater
Arms Inn, to await an inquest.
THE ship Royal Charter still remains at Sanclycroft in the
"fix" wherein she was left at the launch; renewed efforts
will be made to extricate her, during the high tides towards •
the end of this month.
No steps were taken at the recent Chester assizes for the
trial of William Knowles, charged with the murder of Johu
Matthews, the police officer at Oxton, on the 4th of Septem-
ber last, the prisoner still being confined in the asylum,. and
the medical men stating that he is a confirmed lunatic. •
Ix the heavy thunderstorm on Tuesday afternoon, a house
in Queen's Park, Chester, was' struck with lightning.- .The
roof was torn off, and the side walls have been split. The
female servant was covered with the rubbish from the ceiling
and roof, but was rescued without much injury.
ON Tuesday, when Lord Chief Justice Jervis took his seat
in the Nisi Prins Court at Chester, he stated that he never
had the slightest intention of retiring from the high office he
then held, nor had he ever made the slightest application for

a retiring pension.
RESPITE or MARGARET DAVIES. —A respite during the
Her Majesty's pleasure has been received by the Governor of
Ruthin gaol for the above-named prisoner, convicted at the
assizes last week of the wilful murder of her illegitimate child
by drowning it in a canal at Llangollen.
AT the meeting of the Birkenhead Commissioners, on Tues-
day night, Mr. John Laird applied for permission to construct
a tunnel under Ivy-street, from his ship-building yard to the
Monk's Ferry Station. It was stated that a committee had
been appointed to confer with Mr. Laird on that and other
matters.
ARCILOLOGY.—The annual meeting of the Archa-ological
Institute of Great Britain and Ireland commenced at
Shrewsbury on Tuesday. The weather was most unpropitious.
The programme includes excursions to Hawkstone battle field
(the scene of the battle between Henry V. and the Percies),
Buildwas and Wenlock Abbeys, Bromfield Priory and Ludlow
Castle, 11auglimond Abbey, Chirk Castle, and Vale Crutch
Abbey.
FEARFUL THUNDERBTORM.-021 Tuesday afternoon a fear-
ful thunderstorm burst over Chester and its vicinity. The
meadows were flooded, and some tons of hay were washed
down the swollen and turbid Dee. The cellars at the rail-
way refreshment-rooms were flooded, and the ale barrels
washed from the stillages. A portion of the Chester and
Birkenhead Railway was under water to the depth of a foot
and more, but no accident happened.
AN ANCIENT SHIP.—The ship that conveyed General
Wolfe to Quebec (now the property of Captain Robert Alagub,
of the Commercial Inn, at the Dock), has arrived at Pater,
from Leghorn, and is discharging a cargo of oats. We under-
stand that her mainmast was the flagstaff at Gibraltar, when
that celebrated fortress was taken by the English. She is
commanded by Captain William Magub, brother of the
owner, and the venerable ship is good on Lloyd's books, not-
withstanding her great age.— Welsh Paper.
STABBING AT BIRKENHEAD.—A boy, 16 years of age,
named James Gouldson, a striker at a foundry, was tried at
the Chester assizes, on Tuesday, for stabbing a boy named
Charles Young, at Birkenhead, on the 27th of July last. It
appears that the boys were gathering mushrooms in a field on
the day in question, and during a quarrel which took place
between them the prisoner struck the prosecutor with a knife.
He was found guilty; but as he received a good character
from his employer, he was sentenced to further imprisonment
for one week.

FIRE AND Loss OF THREE LIVES.—On Monday a public-
house called the Orange Tree, situate in Altrincham, kept by
Samuel Howard, was discovered to be on fire. The landlord,
his wife, and three children, were quickly aroused, and, with
the assistance of a lad'er, they escaped from their bedroom.
Three lads, and a servant-man, were still iu the building, the
flames baffling all their efforts to escape. The eldest son was
erot out insensible ; but, the conflagration having been got
under, search was made for the missing children and the ser-
vant, when their bodies were discovered in the bar, horribly
disfigured.
MORRIS V. TILE BIRKENHEAD, LANCASHIRE, AND CHES-
HIRE JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY.—This was an action to
recover damages for injuries done to the plantations of a land-
owner at Hooton, by hot cinders which fell upon them, as was
alleged, in consequence of the funnels of the defendants not
being properly guarded, and also for the loss of several cob's
and other cattle, alleged to have been destroyed in consequence
of the defendants not putting up proper gates and fences. The
damages were laid at £l,OOO, but before the hearing it was
agreed to refer the cause to the land-agent of St. Philip
Egerton.
CAB FARES IN BIRKENHEAD.—At the Commissioners'
meeting, on Tuesday, Mr. Curry said that the sub-committee,
appointed to inquire into the subject of the cab fares, were not
yet fully prepared with a report, but they proposed to make a
scale of 6d. for half-a-mile, ls. for a mile, and so on, every frac-
tional part to be treated as half-a-mile. If this was approved
of, they then proposed to make a complete schedule of rates
for the township. They proposed that the rate should be ls.
to the Park grand entrance, although the distance was just
beyond the mile, because the carmen seemed to have esta-
blished that fare for themselves. The time rate was to be 2s.
per hour.

- TEMPERANCE GALA IN BIRKENITEAD PARR' —The
I hers of 29 total abstinence-societies of Liverpool and Birken-
head opened,'on Monday, a series of festive demonstrations. in
the Birkenhead park. But for the continuous raul which
prevailed on Monday and Tuesday, with the exception of a
few hours in the afternoon, the proceedings would doubtless
have been as gay and animated as could have been desired.
On Tuesday morning there was a flower show and exhibition
of fancy goods in the grand marquee. On Ilednesday, a pro.
cession of the various societies assembled was made through
the streets of Birkenhead. The comparative fineness of the
afternoon attracted many thousands to witness the procession,
and also the gala in the park. About eight o'clock in the
evening,
however, a heavy shower came on, and the affair was
terminated, as it began, in " heavy wet?'
CIIESTER ASSIZE.—The assize for the county of Chester
opened on Monday, before Lord Campbell, Chief Justice, and
Sir John Jervis, Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas.
Lord Campbell presided in the Crown Court, and Sir John
Jervis in the Nisi Prins Court. The calendar was more than
usually heavy, there being fifty prisoners for trial, four of
whom were charged with murder. The assizes terminated on
Wednesday afternoon. In the case of Catherine Luney, the
girl charged with murdering her illegitimate child, by throw-
ing it down a privy, at Norton, on the 27th of July last, the
grandjury threw out the bill for murder. She was tried,
however, for concealing the birth, and was sentenced to three
months' imprisonment.—Joseph Edwards, who was lately
committed at Birkenhead, for stabbing Joseph Rogers, in a
drunken quarrel, and admitted out on bail,did not surrender,
nor did the prosecutor appear. He will consequently be tried
at the next assizes.

THE Docxs AMALGIMAAION.—At the Birkenhead Com-
missioners' meeting, on Tuesday, a letter was read from Mr.
John Laird, describing his exertions in connexion with the.
amalgamation of the docks on both sides of the Mersey. Mr.
Laird's letter concludes in the following terms —" The mea-
sure just passed is one which it is well known I have for a
long time advocated, and I believe if properly carried out by
the Corporation, (which I have every reason to think will be
the case,) will conduce greatly to the prosperity of all classes
in the township, and I hope lead at a very early period to a
complete amalgamation of the interests on both sides of the
water, by placing Liverpool and Birkenhead on equitable
terms under one municipal government?' Alluding to Mr.
Laird's letter, the Chairman said he believed the transfer
would contribute materially to the prosperity of the town-
ship. He felt that Birkenhead would soon take that place
among the prosperous cities of England which it ought to do.
ATTEMPTED BURGLARY IN CHESIIIRE.—EarIy on Thurs-
day an attempt was made by five armed burglars to effect an
entrance into the residence of Captain James Newton, at
Cheadle-heath, between Cheadle and Stockport. The house is
near the turnpike road, and is separated by a wall 12 or 11
feet high from a farmhouse tenanted by Mr. Thomas Savage.
The brother of the latter, William Savage, who also lives at
the farm, returned home about two o'clock on Thursday
morning. When he got into the farm-yard lie heard a noise,
and he saw two ladders raised against the high wall dividing
the farm premises from Captain Newton's house and garden.
He went towards the spot, and was immediately thrown down
by two men, and presently he saw a third man, and two
others who appeared to have come down the ladders. All the
five then ran off towards the fields, but one of them, when
only about four yards off, turned round, and seeing that
Savage had regained his feet, discharged a pistol at him.
The ball passed through the upper part of his hat, and finding
himself unhurt, and seeing that the men were separating,
Savage made an attempt to capture the hindermost, and
seized him by the back of his coat collar. The man called
out, and, the other four returning to his assistance, Savage
was again overpowered, and left prostrate, after being struck
several times with a truncheon. As no one came to his
assistance, the men now got away, and Savage awoke his
brother. It was found that the robbers had taken two
ladders from the farm-yard of Mr. Elkanah Cheetham, about
200 yards distant, and a third from the premises of Mr.
Savage, and they were observed to carry with them a bag
or basket supposed to contain some iron implements. Pre-
vious attempts of the kind have been made upon the
same premises.
DisTnEssiNa OCCURRENCE.—On Saturday Mr. Edward
Harris, a pilot of the port of Cardiff, took his wife and six chil-
dren in his boat across the channel to Weston-super-Mare,
whence they again took boat, at about five o'clock, on the back
passage to Cardiff. About seven o'clock, on their nearing the
Cardiff sands (one of the most dangerous parts of the channel),
the boat refused to steer, and became unmanageable, and it
was then found that she had sprung a leak and was fast filling.
The father, mother, and elder children immediately applied
themselves to the pumps and to baling out the water, at which
they worked with desperate energy. To their horror, however,
they found that the labouring of the boat had opened the leak
wider, and that the water gained rapidly upon them. Their
terror was extreme, and when they saw the water covering the
deck, and no means of rescue at hand, the children gave
vent to piteous cries and sfirieks, which almost paralysed the
exertions of the father and mother. They hoisted signals of
distress, and again laboured at the pumps, but still no hope
presented itself. The mother now gave vent to an earnest
prayer for help, and raising her shawl for a signal, waved it
in the air. The signal was descried by the look-out on board
the sloop Dove, of Bideford, which immediately crowded all
sail, and bore down for the distressed boat. The interval was
one of the most harrowing kind. The water kept rapidly in-
creasing; the deck was first covered, then the water deepened,
so that its planks could not be seen. The wretched creatures
now almost abandoned hope. Some of the children clung
round the half-maddened parents, others clung to the mast
and rigging ; while the majority of them uttered shrieks and
lamentations. At length, as the boat began to sink, the sloop
got alongside. Harris, his wife, and some of the children
were quickly hauled into the Dove, and the sinking vessel,
lightened of some of her weight, rose a little. It was then
observed that one poor boy was still left on the sinking craft.
The captain of the sloop (Captain Belley) threw a rope to
him, which he lashed round his waist, and he was hoisted on
board the Dove, sustaining, however, in the effort, severe
injury of one of his feet. He had only sufficient time to reach
the deck when the boat went down, bow foremost, in deep
water. The captain of the Dove carried the pilot and his
family into Newport, where lodgings were provided for them
by the police.

RIOT AT WIIEXIIA3I.—On Tuesday, the neighbourhood of
Wrexham was thrown into a state of great alarm by upwards
of 5000 colliers turning out in consequence of a reduction of
their wages. So excited had the mob become that a great
number of them repaired to some of the agents' houses and
commenced demolishing the buildings. After some time had
elapsed the militia were called out, and the rioters were
ultimately dispersed. A large number of the turnouts have
since left the district for Scotland.
WELCO-ME HOME TO LIEUT.-COLONEL FEILDEN.—On
Saturday the village. of Bebington was the scene of a most
pleasin., demonstration. All will remember the attack on the
18th of June, when. the forlorn hope, under the command of
Major Feilden, of the 44th, made the successful diversion upon
the Cemetery, which they took and held the whole day. For
his intrepidity on that occasion Major Feilden was made lieut.-
colonel of his regiment. He has served in the whole campaign
in the Crimea, and besides the. gallant affair of the Cemeteries,
was under fire in the battles of Alma and Inkerman, for which-
he received the medal and clasps. He has passed through
these severe engagements without receiving a wound, though
his brother, Lieut. Henry Feilden, in the same regiment, has
been less fortunate, having been severely wounded at the attack
on the Redan. Colonel Feilden is thirty years of age. He
entered the army as ensign on the 20th of November, 1839 ;
was gazetted lieutenant October 4th, 1840 ; captain, February
27th, 1846; and major; March sth, 1853, being then only
twenty-eight years of age. As soon as it had become known
that Lieut.-0;1one' Feilden had returned to England, and would
arrive at Bebington on Saturday evening, the -parishioners
assembled for the purpose of making arrangements for a suit-
able demonstration on the occasion. It was unanimously re-
solved that an address should be presented, that the village
should be decorated with flags, the bells of the parish church
rung, and that a procession should be formed to meet the train
by which the colonel was expected to arrive from London.
—On the arrival of the train at the Bebington Station, Lieut.-
Col. Fielden and his sister, who had been to meet him, were
escorted to the carriage in waiting, which was drawn to the
rectory by twelve of the parishioners, amidst the plaudits of
the throng, the bands playing " See the conquering hero
comes," and other airs. After the band marched about, 200
school-children, followed by .the gentry two and two, with
ribbons at their button-holes; then the flag-bearers; and
next the carriage, the miscellaneous and enthusiastic vil-
lagers bringing up the rear. Arrived at the rectory, Mr.
John Deane Case, one of the magistrates of the county, and to
whom had been deputed the duty of presenting the address,
proceeded to do so, and it was appropriately acknowledged.—
The Rev. R. M. Fielden next addressed his' parishioners,
thanking them for the honour they had done his noble son.
He had perhaps more reason to shout than any of them, in
his gratitude to God for having sent back his clear boy un-
scathed, after passing through the dangers of the campaign
thus far; thankful that both his sons had been spared, though
one, the lieutenant, had been wounded, and at present he did
not know to what extent. He had hoped that he would have
been able to come with his brother, but that was found to be:
impossible, owing to the nature of his wounds. Poor Captain
Gipps, too, of the Fusilier Guards, whom many of them would
remember, was anxious to come down with the Colonel, but
he had been unable to do so. After some further "observa-
tions, the rector again thanked them for this spontaneous
evidence of their feelings towards his son, and retired with
the colonel into the rectory.—The assemblage gradually left
the. grounds, and the festivities, which were general through-
out the village, were kept up until a seasonable hour.—Before
the arrival of the colonel, the committee and their friends
dined together at the Rose and Crown. Among those present
were, Mr. J. D. Case, in the chair, supported by the Rev. R.
M. Feilden, the Rev. J. M. Brown, Mr. Clarke Aspinall, and
the Rev. J. Franks, besides whom there were Messrs. Graham.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRANCE.—The correspondent of the Times having alluded
to the arrest of an Italian at Bayonne, who had. followed the
Emperor from Paris, now furnishes a private letter from
Bayonne, which says :—" Au individual, an Italian by birth,
left Paris at the same time as the Emperor did. He took the
mail post, or the railroad at Bordeaux, and arrived at
Biarritz before or at the same time as the Emperor, and from
that moment he did his utmost to approach him, and to
introduce himself into the chateau. His movements excited
the suspicion of one of the police agents, who arrested him
with five or six others who accompanied him, no doubt, to
give aid if necessary. 'The Italian was found armed with a
sharp poniard unsheathed, and also with a double-barrellefl
pistol loaded. The exterior of this person, his manners, and
his costume were those of one in the better class of society.
While I am writing I am informed that the police agent who
arrested the Italian bad followed him from Paris, had made.
acquaintance with him, and had even occcupied the same
room with him."

General Canrobert is ordered to return home from the
Crimea, his health being seriously affected. It is said that he
is to be created a Marshal immediately on his arrival in Paris.
General M`Malion succeeds to the command of General Can-
robert's

ITALY.—The Austrian government is daily gaining power
at Rome, at the expense necessarily of the French. Of the
twelve gates of Rome only three are now held by the French,
viz., the Cavalleggieri, leading to Civita Vecchia ; the Porta
del Popolo, leading to Tuscany and Romagna ; and the Porta
San Giovanni, on the road to Naples.
SPAIN.—The Madrid correspondent of La Presse writes
under date of August 4 :—" Notwithstanding all the tele-
graphic despatches to the contrary, the Spanish government
has resolved to join the alliance of the Western Powers. The
number of the contingent is not yet fixed, but 25,000 men are
spoken of."
The corvogpondent of the Independence writes on the 3rd :
" The resolution of the Spanish govermucut is taken. Mar-
shal O'Donnell has returned from the Escurial, where he has
passed two days with the Queen. On his arrival a long and
interesting cabinet council was held, and it was decided that
Spain should join the Western Alliance, and furnish a contin-
gent of 25,000 men. This resolution was notified yesterday
evening to the ministers of France and England. At the
council Marshal O'Donnell and General Zabala took the lead
in advocating the alliance, M. Huelves promptly adhered to
the* opinions, the Minister of Grace and Justice was unde-
cided, and the young Alonzo Martinez, minister of public
works, was opposed to the policy proposed. The Ministers of
War and Finance withheld their opinions until Espartero
should declare himself. At first the Marshal was opposed to
the project, but he has since acquiesced in the arguments of
O'Donnell and Zabala. The government will have to luing
the matter before the Cortes, as the latter must vote the funds
for the expedition. It is said that General Prim will -be ad-
vanced to the rank of lieut.-general, and appointed to com-
mand the expedition.
AUSTRIA..--A new circular despatch has lately been seat b;
the Cabinet of Vienna to all the representatives of Austria at
foreign courts, in reference to the federal resolution of
July 20.—A letter from Vienna, dated the 4th, says :—" Yes-
terday- evening the Duke de Montponsier paid a visit to the
Count de Chambord, who had arrived from Frohsdorf. The
interview between the two Princes lasted an hour. This
morning at eleven o'clock the Count de Chambord returned
the visit, which was of similar duration. The Duke de Mont-
pensier has left this evening for Prague on his way to Gotha,
and the Count de Chambord has returned to Frohsdorf."

THE ITALIAN OPERA closed on Saturday night. Contrary
to anticipation, it has been the most successful for years.
THE EMPEROR or RUSSIA, it is said, rill be crowned at
Moscow in the autumn.

GENERAL PYM is spoken of as likely to be nominated as
Commander-in-Chief of the Spanish Contingent for the Crimea.
ROBERT HANCOCK, a labourer, residing at Northam, North
Devon, murdered his wife on Friday week, by striking her
over the head with a hammer, and then cutting her throat.
He has been committed on the coroner's warrant for murder.
A MELANCUOLY ACCIDENT occurred at the farm of Helm-
burn, in Ettrick, on Thursday. A young gentleman, Mr.
John Brown, accompanied by a farm labourer, named George
Charteris, had taken shelter from the rain in the lee of an old
wall. The wall suddenly fell, and killed both.—Border Ad-
vertiser. .

THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO FIANCE.—A Paris correspondent
says that, as the moment of Queen Victoria's visit to Paris
draws near, crowds of English from all parts of the globe are
pouring into Paris. " The streets, gardens, cafes, squares,
museums, are thronged with Englishmen. Englishmen take
possession of the orchestra stalls, and the restaurants ; and
it is almost impossible to find any one you can speak to in the
midst of this frightful dash of English, Scotch, and Irish
patois, the jargon of the Welsh mixing with the broken
gibberish of the people from London. Upon the walls you see
nothing but English bills posted up. English spoken here ;'
there is not a shop where you do not read this charitable
notice. You enter, and find that they speak English by
signs ! London is no lon7er in Hyde-park, in Regent-street,
in Beigrave-square, nor Greenwich, but at the Tuileries, upon
the Boulevards, and at the Champs ElyS6e,S."
SUICIDE OF A GnaL.—On Tuesday, the body of a female,
twelve years of age, was found in the River Nene, near Peter-
borough-bridge. It was identified as that of Alice, daughter
of Mr. Green, tailor, of Newton, Peterborough. At the
coroner's inquest, John Jackson, an intelligent lad. thirteen
years.of age, deposed that lie had known the deceased all his
life. He was with her on Monday afternoon, with his sister
and two other girls about the same age, in Gibson's garden.
The clock struck a quarter to ten as witness and deceased
went together as far as a shop near the Corn Exchange, where
the deceased asked witness whether he was going home. He
said yes, and asked her if she was. Shereplied " she dare not,
as her mother swore she would kill her." Witness took hold
of her hand to persuade her. She sat down on the slabs, and.
said, "she thought she should go and drown herself." Wit-
ness asked her how she liked the fireworks, when she said,
"Don't speak to anybody when they are miserable." That
was all that passed. Witness turned down Queen-street to
go home, and the deceased got up and walked down St. John-
street, and he SAW no more of her. Henry Jauncery, constable,
saw the deceased on the bridge about ten o'clock on Monday
night, and asked her what she did there ; and, receiving no
reply, said to her "You're not going to drown yourself, are
you ?" She said, "No, sir," and went away. The coroner
explained the law in the case to the jury, who returned a ver-
dict that "the deceased drowned herself through fear."—
Stamford Mercury.
FEARFUL STORM IN TIIE ISLAND OP SKYE.—On Tues-
day evening, towards six o'clock, Rhuendunan, the residence
of Hugh MacaSkill,
.Esq., was visited by a most dreadful
storm of thunder and lightning, accompanied by heavy tor-
rents of rain. The river which flows from the Coolin Moun-
tains had, during the course of the storm, been gradually
rising, until at length it burst forth with uncontrollable fury,
overflowing its banks. In the space of about ten minutes the
river had carried away the garden wall, burst into the house
with alarming violence, causing the greatest terror and con-
fusion. The inmates, with great difficulty, struggled through
the water, already three feet deep, and were conveyed into a
park, there to await what appeared to be inevitable death.
One young lady sank twice beneath the violence of the cur-
rent, and was with difficulty rescued from her perilous situa-
tion by the gallant conduct of a gentleman who, along with a
young lady at present on a visit to Mr. Macaskill, contributed
not a little towards preserving the presence of mind and
cheering the drooping spirits of the terror-stricken party. In
the meanwhile, the rush of waters continued with undi-
minished violence, carrying away bridges, walls, and every-
thing that impeded its course, rendering the situation of the
party hourly more G'a'ming. Some shepherds stormstayed in
the mountains declared that the rocks shook as if by an earth-
quake, whilst a thunderbolt, falling within ten yards of the
house, completed the gloomy horrors.of the scene. The party
were, after a short deliberation; carried with difficulty to an
outer loft, where they,awaitedwitii intense anxiety the abating
of the flood. Tit storm, after having lasted about three
hours, decreased an violence,. allowing the inmates once more
to return to. titeit.desolate.-abode.—Scotch Paper..
