MUSTER OF THE COAST VOLUNTEERS.

Yesterday two hundred and thirteen of the Royal
Naval Coast Volunteers mustered on board ILM.S.-
2‘iajestic fcir twentyleight days' drill: Their ntimbers
v; ill be 6Orisiderably augmented by to-night. 'thirty-
one come from the Isle of Man ; the remainder are
inhabitants of Liverpool, Birkenhead, and their neigh-
bourhoods. Some brought their wives, who are domi-
ciled about Rock Ferry. A third of the force are in
their third year, and all the others in their second year
of service, and consequently arc in an advanced state
of efficiency. There are, of course, a good number
of " roughs " among them, but, on the whole," their
appearance generally is satisfactory. Six only. have
been rejected as medically unfit for the service. As
the Majestic has been appointed to do channel
service for a tithe, the Inert Will gain valuable expe-
rience, which could not other Wise be extended to them ;
and, in the language of one of the officers, " they will
be made something of."

THE CHARGE OF POISONING IN
- VAuX.ItAtL-ROAD.

Yesterday, an order frOm the Secretary of State for
the Home Department was received by the proper
authorities for the exhumation of the bodies of Samuel,
William, and Elizabeth Townsend. It will be remem-
bered that the female was the sister of the late Mrs.
James, of Valli-hall-road, WhOse death has been attri-
bi!ted to jolsoii, and on Which charge Thomas Winslow
is no tinder remand before the Magistrates, but upon
Whom a committal for wilful miirder by the Coroner has
been made. It is supposed that Mrs. Townsend and.
her two sons were poisoned, as the symptoms in all
cases were the same. Mrs. Townsend was buried in
October, one of her sons in December, .and the other
in Janitary. All were interred at 'Waltoti parish
Cemetery, and at two o'clock 'yesterday, Mr. Walter,
the prosecuting attorney for the borough, accom-
panied by Drs. Cameron, Edwards, and Ayrton,
together with Surgeon Pope, and Mr. John Cobb,
the prisoner's attorney, proceeded, to the cemetery
for the- purpose of having the "bodies -tram- up and.
examined by the medical gentlemen. The bodies
having been disinterred, were carried into the cemetery •
church, where they -were dissected by Dr. Bickerton.
The heart, stomach, and other portions of the body were
then placed in jars, and conveyed to Dr. Edwards' labo-
rattity, *here -they will be analysed. Surgeon Pope
attended on behalf of the prisoner. Of course some
time must elapse before the result can be known.
Probably the evidence will be ready on Monday, to
which day the prisoner stands remanded.
