KIRKDALE SESSIONS.

The Quarterly Sessions, for the Kirkdale division of
the county, were opened yesterday, in the Court-room
attached to the gaol, the chair being occupied by Lord
Stanley. The other magistrates present were Messrs.
W. Hall, George Artingstall, J. G. Morris, George
M'Corquodale, Robert Neilson, R. Theakstone, Colonel
Blackburne, Major Chambers, and Major Bourne.
On the recommendation of the Finance Committee it
was agreed to grant £l6O for hundred bridges and £2O
for the county bridges.
Mr. Elgee, chief constable, submitted the following
report :

" In laying before you the accompanying returns and criminal
statistics, I have the honour to report that the number of per-
sons apprehended and summoned during the quarter has been
greater than during the two preceding quarters, and that in
the offence of drunkenness, more especially, there appears to
have been a considerable increase. The aggregate amount of
clime, however, varies but little from the corresponding
quarter of last year.

" The conduct of the force has been good ; at the same time I
am sorry to observe, that forty-six resignations have occurred
in it within the last three months. I attribute them, for the
most part, to the demand for labour existing at present, and
the consequent increase in the rate ,of wages amongst the
class of which the force is principally composed. I brought
this subject to the notice of the Constabulary Committee in
May ; and at the last General Annual Session a committee.
was appointed to consider whether it is not advisable to
increase the pay of the police force. I q.m., therefore, induced
to hope that steps will be taken calculated to
preyent so many
changes in future.

"The free is now twenty-nine constables below its autho7
deed establishment of 686.

Lord Stauley—l think it is generally observed that
the number of criminals is greater during the summer
quarter thau during the two preceding quarters ?
Mr. Elgee—The quarter ending the 31st September
is generally the largest, and the one ending the 30th
June the next.
The report was then adopted, as was also that of the
bridge masters, 34jeli contained nothing of public
interest.
The Governor submitted his report, from which it
appeared that the clauses of the Gaol Act had been
complied with as far as practicable, and that the condi-
tion of the establishment was good. He submitted the
following return, showing the number and description
of the prisoners in confinement :--

The following communication, from Lieut.-
Col. James Bourne, 4th Brigade Lancashire Artil-
lery Volunteers, in command of the troops at the
inspection on Saturday last, has been received by
the officers who were in command of corps at the
s.Eco.ND LiziiNGs. I Review

Head 9narters, 4th Brigade Lancashire Artillery Volun-
teers, C Baser:gent, Liverpool and London Insurance
Chambers, Dale-street, LiFerpool,
dub' i 7, 1860.
I have much pleasure in publishing the fol-
lowing extracts from a letter received from Colonel
M•Murdo, C. 8., Inspector-General of Volunteers:
" I have to request that you will express to the
officers, non-commissioned officers, and privates of the
volunteer force which was under your command this
day, the satisfaction with which I witnessed their
several movements; and I shall have pleasure in com-
municating to the Secretary of State for War my
opinion of the steady AA s.ckdier-like manner in which
these were performed. Much has been dpne towards
the efficiency of artillery and rifle volunteers of Liver-
pool and its neighbourhood, and the spectacle of to-day
has added lustre to their service. It only remains now
to complete the development of that efficiency."
2. As regards the artillery brigades, Colonel M`Murdo
further adds :
"I trust that the arrangements for carrying on gun
practice, which are being made by the officer command-
ing the Royal Artillery in the district, will soon place
at the disposal of her Majesty, for the defence of the
country, a force of 2,000 trained gunners, drawn from
among the most intelligent classes of the people of
Lancashire::
A hope in whiCh I heartily concur ; and I trust that the
brigades of artillery, by taking advantage of the oppor-
tunities thus to be placed at their disposal, will continue
to maintain the reputation of the county, and the effi-
ciency of that branch of the service in which I am more
immediately interested.
3. It was a source of great gratification to me to
witness the steadiness and soldier-like bearing of the
battalions of rifles.
4. avail myself of this opportunity to thank those
officers who so kindly placed their services at my dis-
posal ; and I am much indebted to Major Chambers and
Captain Stanhope, who acted as Brigade-Majors; to
Captains Bradish, Tyndall Bright, and Ryrie, who so
ably superintended the arrival and departure of the
troops at the different railway stations ; to Major Greig,
head constable of Liverpool; and to Captain Elgee,
chief constable of the county, by whose excellent
arrangements, in their several departments, the most
perfect order was preserved throughout.

I cannot conclude without expressing my very great
satisfaction at the Taper in which every movement was
peril/trued' by he tivOino I had tho hotio4, to
—I have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant,
JAMES BOURNE,
Lieut.-Colonel Commanding Division.

ADVENTURES IN Ina ARFTIC gEGIONS.—DanieI W.
Hall, son of William Hall,. of this city, arrived at this
port on Tuesday, in the barque Frances Henrietta,
having been from home forty-six months, eight and a
half months of which time was passed in the northern
regions of the Pacific, during an Arctic winter. Young
Hall sailed in the ship condor, in 1856, being at that
time fifteen years of age. At the last of the second
season in the Ochotsk Sea, while in the southwest bay,
October Ist, 18.58, the second mate killed a whale and
anchored him. Next day the second and third mates'
boats went for the whale, but not finding him pro-
ceeded to a native settlement, Jimakan, at the head of
the bay, to stop during the night. Here young Hall
and another boy, named Elias D. Tolman, belonging
near Amherst, in this State, concluded to run away,
having been ill-used and recently whipped on board
the ship. The boats went away in the morning
without the boys, and finding the whale, pro-
ceeded to the ship. On the ith, the ship sailed for
Felizstoff, and thence to the Sandwich Islands, not
sending nor looking for the boys according to their story.
The place selected by the young sailors for their winter
quarters was the inhospitable country at the mouth of
the River Udskoi, in lat. 57 N., but as the season
advanced they proceeded with the natives to settlements
up the river seventy-five miles. The people were
rpostly
Russians, who treated the boys with great kindness
during the whole time of their stay among them. They
suffered considerably from hunger, and Hall was very
sick for three weeks with a disease somewhat like fever
and ague. During the winter ti!illeell
of the native
Tongoes died of this disease. • Their food consisted
mostly of fish and a sort of horse-beef. In June, 1859,
Captain Morrison, of the ship Daniel Wood, of this
port, (having seen an advertisement at Honolulu in re-
lation to Hall), sent a boat into the Bay and took the
boys on board his ship, where they stayed during the
season, and were brought to the Sandwich Islands. We
understand that young Hall has a journal of hit ter=
rible winter's experience, which will be published at
some future time. Legal action was commenced some
tine by Mr. gall against Captain Whiteside, of the
Condor, for abandoning his son'on an inhospitable
which has not been concluded.—Aew Zedlord Sianclatel.
