DAILY IIIIRS.)

PARIS, Fame: Remains.
Great excitement was occasioned at the Bourse
la
dy bye the first telegraphic despatch from the
Stook Exchange, quoting Consols at 91,1, I,p-
-whisk would have been a rise of I. It wu su
posed that this rise must have been owing to the
ribbed= of the revenue returns; but when the
isms' illespabb, received an hoar later, brought
Onsels at 901, it was taken for granted that the
Ira mast have been erroneous, and that in reality
the 7 variation in the English fonds had been •
fall et . Such accidents are very much to be re-
vet . It is surprising that the Syndie of the
Bourse does not, when a reasonable doubt is enter-
tained of the correctness of a despatch, send a shod
signal to London, desiring the communication to be
repeated. The answer might be received from Corn-
hill in a few miaates. The Rente was very little
affected by the supposed rise in Consols. It opened
at 66fr. 10c., and, though for some time in consider-
able demand, did not rise higher. There was a
slight fall when the second London despatch was
placarded, but after inconsiderable fluctuations the
Three per Cents, closed at 65fr. 95c., being se. higher
than yesterday. Litters from London announce that
the hagfish subscriptions to the French loan are
very considerable. MM. Rothschild have opened
a subscription in their own names, and MM.
Baring another, as agents for the Credit Mobilier
Society. The railways were very firm. Most of
them rose sf. to Bfr.
The Court of Caseation has just decided a point of
international law, between France and England, of
some importance. It will be remembered that Mr.
Featherstonhaugh, the English Consul at Havre, was
some time since convicted of embezzlement by the
court of Havre, which oonvictioo was confirmed by
the Imperial Court of Rouen. On appeal to the
Court of Caseation by the prisoner, it was argued
that the privilege of " extemtoriality " was a consu-
lar u well as a diplomatic privilege, and that, as
British consul, Mr. Featherstonhaugh was not
liable to be tried for a misdemeanour before
the French courts. The Court of Cessation
rejected the appeal, but founded its judg-
ment upon different reasons from those given
by the Court of Rouen. The latter court proceeded
upon the interpretation of existing treaties between
France and England, but the Supreme Court has de-
aided that the convention of January 15, 1787,
which declared that the consuls of the two countries
should respectively enjoy the privileges of " the most
favoured nation," having been revoked by the war
which followed he treaty of Amiens, has never been
renewed, and that at this moment there is no ex-
isting treaty between the two countries on the sub-
ject. The rights of consuls must be determined on
the principles of reciprocity, as understood by the
law of nations, and accordingthere to this is no
foundation for the privilege claimed by the prisoner.
On the let inst. the English residents at Pan pre-
sented a handsome silver gilt chased coffee service,
purchased by small collections made among them-
selves,to Madame Baguet, the mother of the French
general who so gallantly brought up the troops under
his command to the aid of the British at the battle of
Inkermann. This pleasing new-year's gift was pro-
moted to Madame Baguet, who resides at Pan, with
an appropriate address in French by Major Phillott,
Major Stephenson, John Steward. Esq., and the Rev.
8. Lysone, the deputation appointed for that purpose.
The present was received by Madame Bos4ret with
evident pleasure. This delicate attention has given
much satisfaction to the fellow townsmen of the
gallant general.
M. Frossard, a protestant clergyman of Barmen
de Bigerre, has been sent to the Crimea, to organise
a body of protestant chaplains to minister to the
spiritual wants of the members of the French army
belonging to the reformed religion.
' The Presse says it is affirmed that the French go-
vernment has lately sounded the Federal govern-
meat of Switzerland, with a view to ascertain whe-
' they the latter would be disposed to negotiate on the
subject of the valley of Dapper, (contiguous to the
canton of Vaud) which was assigned to Switzerland
' by the Congress of Vienna, but which has de facto
remained ever since in the possession of France.
The body of notaries of the department of the
Seine, at an extraordinary meeting held yesterday,
resolved on subscribing to the national loan fer a sum
of 120,000 fr. of rents. _

The Echo Agricolo publishes an account of the
sale of butcher's meat during the month of Dec. in
1164, 1653, and 1862, at Sceaux and Prissy. It re-
sults from the account that each market of the two,
last months of 1854, was superior for beef to those of
the corresponding period of the two preceding years;
that there was nearly equality for calves, and that
the number of sheep was equal for 1854 and
1852, but superior for 18.53 by about 1,000 each
market. The average prices in November and, Dc-
cember, 1854, were for each ox 131 per. cent. higher
than in 1863, and nearly 49 percent. higher than in
1852; for each cow 131 per cent. superior to the
prices of 1853, and HI per cent. super►or to those of
1852 ; for each calf, 19/ per cent. superior to the
prices of 1833 and 1852; for each sheep 8 per cent.
above the prices of 1853, and 28 per cent. above
those of 1852. _ _ _ _

THE Quartt v. Nairrox.— An application was
msde to Lord Campbell on Thursday evening on the part
of the two defendants in this eau, convicted of an assault
on Mr. Ku, for leave to amend the record, with the view
I of bringing a writ of *nor, so that the defendants could be
admitted to bail. Notice of motion had been served on the
other side, sad the point to be raised was, that the piece
where the assault wu committed was at Beulah Spa, in the
parish of Croydon, and not, as alleged, in the parish of
Lambeth, and consequently it was not within the jurisdic-
tion of the Central Criminal Court. Lord Campbell re-
fused the application. The point should have been made
on the trial. The defendants are undergoing the judgment
of the court in Horsemonger-lane Gaol.

BARBAROUS OuTam/E.—The Connaught Watch-
man has the following amount of a barbarous piece of
villainy, aacompaeied by scarcely credible circumstances
—A woman who, with her three children, lived in a bully
dtustion near Croamolime, had received 301. from her hus-
band in Auntie& Oae night she was awoke by a loud
knocking at the door, to which she replied that no one
should be admitted at hat time of night. Being entreated, I
however, for the sake of the Almighty, she consented to
give a live coal to warm the weary traveller. No sooner
did she opus the door than a man rushed in, and placing
a pistol to her breast commended her to bring her
money to him if she would avoid instant death. Terror-
strack, the woman came and placed tea pounds In the
robber's hands. Not satiated, he demanded mere, and
obtained another ten. This was not yet selecient. "You
have yet ten (said he), bring then or you most now
die." The woman parted with all rather than her life.

INDIA AND ITS

THE NAVIGATION OF THE GODAVEBT.
(Frost the Manchester Times and Exassiner-)

The following letter from Colonel Cotton, late chief
engineer at Madras, to Mr. Bright, M.P., has been
forwarded to us for publication; we gladly give in-
sertion to it, and ask for it the attention which is due
to the magnitude of the subject, and to the character
and position of the writer:

Westou-superMare, Janney 2,186 i.
Dear Itir,—Assording to your &elle I now propose to
She yes, sus paper, my views ea the subject ate. °Waver,
navigation.

My employment en the works lately and still under eon-
enaction for the Irrigation and n►vigation of the Delta of
that river newest ily brought before me continually, for se-
veral years, ita value as a means of communication with so
large a tract of eountry as the basin drained by it ; and I
have now, I think, ample data to show that the subject is
worthy of the closest investigation.
The natation with me, for the thirty years that 1 have
been employed in public works in India, has been, how can
money be upended with the greatest results—that is, with
he greatest benefit to India? And I now feel confident
that no work can be proposed in that country that would
produce greater returns, both direct and indirect, than the
navigation of the Godavery ; no project that I have beard
proposed, or that has occurred to myself, seems to me likely
to yield newly such profits or such benefit to the country as
this, and for the following reasons:
1. There is now abundant evidence that the cotton of
Serer is the most suitable to the manufacturers of Eng-
land of all that has been yet found, out of the United
States; and, at the SOON time, its price on the spot (ltd.
per lb.) is probably the lowest that cotton can be produced
at in any country. I believe the supply of cotton for our
manufactures is now allowed to be one of our greatest
commercial questions, and one which most nearly affects
oar national welfare.

2. This cotton is, at present, conveyed to Bombay by a
Land journey of from 300 to 400 miles; or to Calcutta, by
the came extent of land carriage to some point on the
dams, and then by a voyage of 600 miles upon that river,
at an expense of about W. per ton, exclusive of interest,
risk, &G.; or, including all charges, at a oast of nct mush,
if at all, under one penny per pound.

3. By the Godavery, supposing it rendered navigable ,by
works such as I ma about to recommend, this cotton could
be conveyed to the safe port of Coring', 400 miles of water
carriage for about 10e. per ton, reolmoing at the rate at
which goods are conveyed on the Ganges, but for much less
than that, were the river improved as it may be, so as to
become a far superior navigation to the Ganges in its present
state. I may remark that the ratii of cost on the Indus,
according to Lieutenant Chapman, is a little more than a
farthing a ton smile, or about 9s. for 400 miles.

4. The quantity of cotton at present exported from Borer
is, I believe, stated at 30,003 toss a year, which, at 61. pet
ton, will wet for lead carriage alone 180,0031. a year. Were
this quantity only tarried by the river Godavery at 10s. a
ton, there would be a saving of 166,00 W. on the p of
traffic in this one item ; and suppose only one-fourth part
of this were taken as profit for the carriers, it would give
10 per cent. on the outlay of 480,0001.
6. Captain Fenwick, an excellent authority, having been
employed for three or four years by the house of Palmer
and Co. of Hyderabad, in purchasing cotton, and having
been also fur many years resident in these countries, states
that the cultivation of cotton would be extended in any
degree, according to the demand, nadir the stimulus of a
moderate nee in price.
6. There are many otter products of the Basin of the
Godavery, among which the article of what may be men-
tioned, worth there about Is. 64. per bushel, or 12s. per
quarter, that would be conveyed in large quantities to the
coon. if cheap transit were provided.
7. The whole population of the Basin of the Godavery
would be supplied with salt from the coast bytbat river. At
present all that is consumed is conveyed by land at a cost
which places it beyond the reach of a large portion of the
Population. Probably abut ten millions of people would
use salt brought by the river, and, using it at the rate of
141 b. per head, they would require not less than 60,000 tons
per annum.
8. Besides many other products of the Delta of the Gude-
very, situated on the coast, and being so completely irrigated,
the article of rice would be transported up the river in large
quantities. It is sold in Rajahmandry, on the coast, at one-
North of the price it costs in Bees?, so that probably the
whole of the 11C11 consumed there would be conveyed by the
river from Rajahmundry, if the navigation were established;
and the people now employed in growing rice in Berra at
such a cost, would be far more profitably engaged in grow-
in cotton for exportation.
9. There are thus good data for estimating a traffic by the
Godavery in the great staple, of cotton, salt, wheat, and
rice, besides =soy minor articles, the produce of the Delta,
or imported; and to these may be added, as as important
item, the @spoil of British manufecteres to the interior of
the country. There cannot be grounds for judging of
the traffic to be expected on any line than the difference in
the price of articles at the two ends of that line ; if there is
a great difference of price in bulky and staple articles, and
the cost of transit is reduced to one-tenth part of that dif-
ference, there can be no doubt that so extensive traffic will
spring up, even though there were none before.
10. Tue river Godavery rises not far front Bombay, but
the mein river appears not to be capable of being made
navigable much above the confluence with the Weida!),
about 300 miles from the sea, as between that and a point
150 miles higher up, there is ascertained to be a great fall.
But the Wordah has a moderate fall, and has been navigated
by Captain Feawick to Woony, about 150 miles above its
junction with the Godavery. How much higher up than
Wooney the fall continues moderate, has not yet been as-
certained. The Weieguage a river at least as large as
the Wardals, into which it flair, has also a moderate fall,
and is stated by a gentleman who yod it to be navi-
gable for aernaiderable distance. The Wordah, however,
flows throogh the midst of the cotton country, and is,
therefore, of much more impost's's than the main
stream of the Godavery alma its junction with the
Wordsh. -

11. The Godavery is much more direct in its course than
the average of large rivers. The distance by it, from the
mouth of the Wordah to the sea, is probably not more than
one-fourth greater than by a straight line. The Words& is
more winding in its course, but much lees so than many
rivers. The distance between Woony and its entrance into
the Godavery. is about 100 miles in • direct line, and 150
miles by the river; this is by actual y, but • portion of
the Godavery Itself has sot yet been surveyed—et least, •
map of it has not yet been published.
12. The total distance from Woony, the point from which
Captain Newish navigated it, to the sea, is about 400 miles.
Probably 100 miles of the Weingunp, and the same dis-
tance along the Wordab, above Weeny, can be navigated, or
made navigsble,besides part of the Indrawatty,a large branch
which enters the Godavery from the north, about twenty
mike below the Wordal. In all, about 700 miles of these
riven may probably be rendered navigable of which 400
miles have been repeatedly navigated during the portion of
the year from June to January.
13. Last year the Godavery was examined by an officer
in • small steamer during the monsoon or rainy season, se
far as the Indrawatty, and a rough estimate was made by'
him for removing the principal rocks that obstruct the na-
vigation at a cost of only 6,000/.
14. There are only six rocky spots in the space between
Woony and the sea, some more compost sod some more
scanned, sad each from one to three silts in length. The
east of cutting • broad channel through them would be
altogether trilling, as the rock is • soft slate, and can, for
the roost pan, be removed by the crowbar.
15. As a further test of the navigation of the river, an
iron cargo boat of 60 tons was sent up, manned by twelve
native, without say other help, and though they had nefer
been op the river before, they seconded as far as the
Wordab, and returned. The total cost of the trip was 301.,
including !stared, cite., while the present cost of sending
60 tons of cotton to Bombay is 3601.
16. Officers have been employed, during the late extra-
ordinarily dry season, in examining the bed of the river,
and the governor-general beg lately directed that money and
officen should be provided to carry on the examination, and
to tenon the principal obstructions from the bed.
17. Large qoantitses of teak and other timber are Beau-
alie sent down the Godavery. and it is navigated by boats
ae far as Brudrachellum, 130 miles from the sea, but it has
been scarcely navigated by the natives above that. The
principal reason is, that they have been left entirely at the
mercy of the petty reninders located along the river, every-
one of whom has assumed the right of levying whatever toll
he pleased, though, In the treaties with Nagpore and Hyde-
rabad, the two states that lie along the river, it was ex-
pressly stipulated that no duties should be levied. At one
haant passed by the boats last year, a Reminder said he should
ve demanded a sum equal to 30 per cent. on the value of
the cargo. It is to be observed that none of these men are
sovereign., but are all dependent on the above-named two
dates. The governor-general has now issued a proclama-
tion that no duties that Do levied en the frontier of Hyde.
rabad, and Negpore has been declared part of the British
&Wakes. . . . .

XlB. Wan the officers were up the river last year, they
&wad the people everywhere most deeply interested in the
question of the navigation, particularly with the hope of ob-
taining salt, the want of which is a moat grievous privation
throughout these (nannies, for the long land carriages
make it too 4:astir for the mwof the people.
19. The "resident" at Hyderabad has expressed his
groat anxiety for the prosecution of this undertakiog, and
es has the officer in charge of the Nagpore state._

20. It is evideat that the question of the navigation is
resolvable into two parts; t►at of the blossom navigation,
and that of t►e dry season. With a trifling expenditure in
clearing a." rocks, it will be a fair navigation for at lout
months in the year, sad probably for boats of very light
draft for eight swaths; Indeed one of the cams employed
on the Wordah in building boats, came down this year (in
the mouth of May, when the river is at t►e lowest, and in 1
the dryest meson known for many years) the whole way to
the coast in his canoe.

21 To rendsrtbe;i;or navireblo for bossy boots through-
out the Tear, it will be necessary, first, to eat slur channel,
tkroogh all the rocky barrien, which will be by no mesas

as expeaeive operation ; and, secondly, to store warm
in reservoiss during the monsoon, from which the summa
supply can be kept up. There has been abundant expo.
riots. in this hied of work from the old native tanks scat-
tered ever the whole country, many of which cantwin from
60 to 100 sillies' of cubic yards of water. We are, there .
fore, in a peeitioa to make a tolerable estimate of the cost
of retaining a certain quantity of water, and we a.n alga
eseily calculate bow much water is required to keep up a
certain depth at the fords. Thus we reckon that is such a
country as that of the Basin of the Godavery, at least
10,000 cubic yards of water can be secured at an outlay of
one pound sterling, and hence to supply an addition of
100,000 cubic yards per hour, over an average of 10./ days,
which would require 240 millions of cubic yard., would oast
only 24.0001. And if this improved 700 mile, of navigation, It
would be at the sat of only 351. per mile ; see that were ten
times this quantity required, and it oat four times the above
estimatej rate, it would still be only 1,4001. per mile, or
not a tvilllth part of that which is the cost of the Biaggi
railway. finch tanks may be constructed any where
throughout the whole basin, wherever the meet advanta-
geous sites are found.
22. Prom the anima or weir that has been thrown across.
the Godavery near Rajahmendry, there are three hoes of
canal with lochs, 100 feet by 16 fest, and with about G feet
of water over the lock sills, extending to the putt of Cor-
ing'. This port is the only shelter for vessels on the wool.
eastern coast of the peninsula. It is so sheltered, that no
vessel has ever been known to have been lost in it.
23. Coal has been found in three localities in the Basic
of the Godavery, but none of good quality has yet been
seen that came front those places. It is, however, a remark-
able fact, that on directing an agent employed in procuring
timber, to obtain a specimen of coal from one of these three
sites, • large block of very good coal was tent duwa, which,
it was afterwards ascertained must certainly have been pro-
cured front some point much nearer to Rijahmundry than
the one that had been named ; and it has not yet been
ascertained where it was procured, no doubt from the fear
of some Zemindar, that it would bring Europeans into his
district. This circumstance seems to leave no roan for
doubt that good coal is procurable in this basin.
24. Coal of excellent quality has been quarried by Capt.
Fenwick, just beyond the northern limits of the Basic, but
within the Basin of the Nerbudda, and conveyed by that
officer to Bombay, where it was favourably reported open by
the steamboat engineers. This site, which lies south of
lioosingabad. on the Nerbudda, iv about 10' miles from the
part of the Warden that may be rendered navigable.
25. There is excellent iron ore diffused over the Basin of
the Godavery, but especially in the line of the Wein-gunge,
about 70 miles south east of Nagpore, where it is eiten-
lively smelted by the natives. This, like most of the ether
iron ores of India, is far superior to the common ores of
England, and the iron manufactured by the natives is of
excellent quality, and always used in preference to iron im-
ported from England when superior metal is required. The
natives emelt it with charcoal, but this adds so cauCtlerably
to the expense, that it is one of the great hindrances to pro-
gress in India.
28. The works now in course of construction by the
government far the improvement of the two Deltas of the
Godavery and Kistnah, which together form one vast area
of the richest alluvial soil, have a material besting on the
question of the Upper Godavery navigation, inasmuch as
they will provide for the most abundant predne ion of all
those things which are either uoprocursb.e, or, like rice,
only to be obtained at a comparatively high price in the
inland districts. These works will probably cost half a
million sterling, equal in extent to works that would
cost in England three millions. They consist of two weirs
across the two rivers; one in four branches, of the united
length of 4,000 yards, and the other of 1,300 yards, of
masonry ; with navigable, irrigating channels of about 1,880
miles in length, with from 400 to 500 miles of river embank
meats, and innumerable works of masonry for the regula-
tion and distribution of the water. At all the points where
there are locks lathe channels there will be water power to
the extent of several hundred horses, and these are scattered
throughout the Deltas, so that all produce requiring power,
such as what, site., may be manufactured, on its way, with-
out any extra carriage. The total quantitylof land thus em-
beaked, irrigated, drained, and pervaded by navigable chan-
nels, will be more than two millions of acres. The Goda-
very works have now been in hand nine years ; and such
has been the somas of them, that, though not half of the
land has yet been watered, the us has increased 30
per cent, or to the amount of 60,0001. a year, while the
people have been greatly benefitted, as is &town by the ex-
ports having increased 100,0001.—the works having as yet
only coot 200,0001
One continued line of channels connected with the two
weirs on the Godseery and the Kistnah will extend 120
miles parallel with the coast ; and a canal extends from the
city of Medias, 65 miles towards the Kistnah, leaving an
interval or 130 miles, which the government is row Laving
surveyed and its cost estimated. When this work is com-
pleted, Madras will be connected with the Godavery by a
line of canals navigable by steamboats, giving a further im-
portance to the Gadgetry navigation.
27. There are boundless forests on the God every and its
branches, the lmwatty and the gayety. These once con-
tained immense quantities of teak, but an indiscriminate
destruction of that most valuable timber has bees car-
ried on from time immemorial, and it has not been ascer-
tained how much may yet remain. There is, however,
abundance of other timber, useful for many purposes, and
large qusntitiss are brought down the river, chiefly for boat
and ship-building.
28. Wood fuel an everywhere be deposited on the
r banks of the river at Is per too, equal to 2s. Gd. per ton
r for coal.

These seem to be the leading points in this question, so
far aa our present information goes. Let us now make
such a rude estimate of the sums that it may be advisable
to spend upon the improvement and Llitigstion of the river,
and of the probable results, as our present data will enable
us to make. They must necessarily be rude in the prevent
stage of the matter, but if, upon a close consideration, they
afford a prima facie we, we may be contsLt to proceed
further:

imports, though including shoot all articles of Eoglish
manufactures, would consist, for the largest pert, of the
cotton manufactures of Lancashire; that the r of the
Indian government would be Increased, net by increased
tasation, but by greater prosperity among the people; and
that the expenditure which I receetmend is to be de-
fended on grounds of isdivldusl prudence, a well as on
those which rein to the interests of Lancashire and the
nation at largo. I can only say, and Ido it with much
confidence, and after long experience in public worts in
India, that this is the one I select, among all I ha,.
thought of, or heard proposed by other., as the one that
promises the :ingest return,, direct and jaunt ct, for the ex-
penditure it will require. Nor need I eib.erve to you how
gre.t will be the gain to India and to England, if one sue-
useful example is offered of Indian investment by English
capitalists, unaided by any gavernment guarantee, and free
from any goveroznent control beyond that to which an en-
terprising joint stock company would be subjected car-

I not afraid of malting this letter too long. 1 have only to
say, in eccolusion, that I shall rejoice if I am able to induce
the manufacturers and merchants of Lancashire, or any
English ethitelists, to take such steps as may be necessary
to open up, to complete, and to carry on the navigation of
the G G daTery .-1 am, truly yours,

THE PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ARCH-
DEACON DENISON.

The court appointed to investigate the charges
against Archdeacon Denison re.usemeded at haltpint ten
yesterday morning, when Mr. Serel, of Wellr, bookselier,
deposed to having obtained copies of the first cannon on the
t. Real Presence," in the ordinary way of business, from
Mr. Masters, the publisher. Heard that sermon delivered
by Archdeacon Denison an Wells Cathedral, and when be ,
read the printed copy believed it to be the cams discourse
as he hal heard in the cathedral. Applied to Mr. Masten,
also, far copies of the other two sermons, and exhibited
them alt is his shop in the usual manner.
The Rev. Frederick Begot, vicar of Rodney Stoke, de-
posed that he hod received a copy of Archdeacon Denison's
first and third sermons: had been monisbed to bring those
copies a ith him, but they were not in his possession, he
having lent them in October last, and they Lad not been
ictura-d.
Dr. 114yErd asked the witness to state the nature of the
con Icon which he had observed peeling between Dr.
Phillimore and himself during the examination of the pre-
ceding witness ; but Dr. Pnillicaore objected.
Croat-examined by Dr. Phillimore—l have been residing
in the diocese since 1817, and know pretty well the state
of religious parties in the diocese. There are two parties,
high church sod low church. The archdeacon is said to
belong to the high church party, and the promoter of the
suit to the low church party. The subject of the Holy
Eucharist is a subject upon which these parties differ very
much—that is to say, some hold a spiritual presence in that
blessed sacrament, and others hold what is called a low view
of it.
Dr. Haggard thought it his duty to suggest to the com-
missioners that this line of COM examination was irrele-
vant.
Dr. Phillimore said his defence would yrobably be di-
vided into two positions, one of which would be that the
whole of there prtneedings were of the character of a con-
spiracy against the Archdeacon of Taunton, on account of
the doctrines which he, in common with a large party in
this diocese and kingdom entertained ; and an the r would
be that, as at present advisee, no legal proof would be of-
fered to the comminioners of the publication or preaching
of these sermons.
Hereupon a ioag discussion arose, which resulted in the
commissionen, under the advice of their assessor, stating
that they objected to, and could not allow questions to be
pat as to the views or party feelings entertained by parti-
cular individual,.
Dr. Phillimore said that if he was excluded from proving
that the archdeacon had not preached any heretical doc-
trines, it might, on consultation with his client, be judged
expedient to cease from any further defence before that
commission.
The Rev. F. Bigot's cross-examination, by Dr. Phillimore,
was then resumed, and the rev. gentleman stated that he
had known Archdeacon Denison intimately for many years,
and should have been swede if he had preached any heretical
doctrines, irrespective of those alleged to be contained in the
sermons: t J the best of his knowledge he has not dons so.
The Reverends Thomas Ellison, Rural Dean ; Fitzhard-
inge Portman ; John Edwin Lance ; William Neville,Vicar
of 13utleigh ; and 11. Thompson, Vicar of Chard, examined
by Dr. Phillimore, gave similar evidence, and denied that
Archdeacon Denison bad Romanising tendencies.
Dr. Hayford proceeded with the case, and called the Rev.
C. E. Pritchard, who deposed to having received a copy of
• two of the sermons, and believed he had also received a
• Copy of the third. lie wrote to Archdeacon Denise. thank-
• hag him for the copy, but mentioning seine reasons for dis-
agreeing with some of the statements the sermons con-
I tamed. Toe archdeacon wrote in reply, stating that he did
not wish to enter into the subject.
Dr. Bayiard then stated that he had called all the wit-
nesse, he intended to present before the commission. S.A.
k discussion ensued as to the course to be pursued by the
advocates.
s Dr. Phillimore renewed his objection to the commission
P as a partial tribunal, and wished for leave to produce evi-
I dance to show that °he of the judges in this cum recently
, entertained such personal feelings towards his (Dr. Philli-
I more's) client es to disqualify him as a judge in this matter.
Dr. Haggard advised the connoinioners that this ought
' to hare been made the foremost part of the plea tendered
yesterday, and that not having been then put for ward, it
should be rejected.
The Court having adopted this suggestion, the affidavit
of Archdeacon Denison on the recent case in the Queen's
Bench was read up to the point setting forth that the
, matter raised under the present suit hal been siege ly
before the lase and present Bishop of Bath and Wells,
at which point
Another discussion took place as to the mannerin which,
supposing it to be groved that the Archdeacon of Taunton
had published and preached these sermons, as charged, the
conunissionen would deal with the question, whether the
. doctrine contained in those sermons was or was not an
ecclesisatical off ence.
Dr. Livened remarked that it bad been suggested the
sermons hearse before them would speak for themselves.
, Dr. Bsylord said the commissioners could adopt two
two courses, viz , either separately to argue the doctrinal
matter contained in the sermons, or the commissioners
t having the books before them might read them, and, having
considered their content., they might say whether, in their
, opinion, there were any matters in them which prima facie
were unsound in doctrine.
, Dr. Pnal:m're emphatically protested against such a
course being pursued, contending that if the commiisionersi
. were to decide without hearing arguments on the doctrine
, contained in the sermon!, they might as well have decided
also as to the preaching and publication of the sermons,
without going through the inquiry which had been made on
; those points.
, The court ultimately adjourned till the following day,
, without giving a decision as to whether they would tear
, argumeat on the doctrinal point from the Archdeacon's
advocate.

If the iron boats, conveying in all 5,000 tons, made 20 trips
in a year towed both uo end down by the steamers, and the
wooden boats, worked up empty be men and towid down
by steamers, made 6 trips in a year, this would provide for
160,000 tons, allowing for the up trips. Tae rough estimate
of the return may be given thus:-160,000 toss conveyed at
a profit of 10s. per ton above the ripeness, would yield
80,0001., or 30 per cent. on the whole original expenditure.
To show that this is not an extravagant supposition, I may
state that the present charge for freight on the Ganges, in
' its present unimproved state, is about 3s. feL per ton per
mile for boats worked by men, and on the Indus it is some-
thing lose than this, et which rata it would cost 12s. a ton
from Wooay to the see. The cost of sending the iron boat
up hut year was, as I have stated, 10s. per ton. With the
river improved as now proposed, end using steam only if it
diminishes the cost, we may safely allow 101. a ton for the
expenses, or 80,0001. a year for the east of 160,000 tone.
The total charge would then be 20i. a ton, including profit,
while the lend carriage to Bombay is now 6/. ; and, if to the
20s. we add the cost of 50 miles of land carriage in bringing
goods to the river, at 3d. per ton per mile, or 12,. Gd. per
ton, we shall have a total oast of IL 12s. 64, per ton, icstead

TERRIBLE SCENE AT A BALL.—At Madrid, a
few nights back, a lady gave a ball, and amulet the guests
were aM. R— and Mdlle. B—. It was observed that
the young man constantly kept dose to the yo uag lady, and
followed her when eh* wont from one part of the room to
another. It was also noticed that she seemed greatly
annoyed by his attentions. The mother of the young lady
wished to interfere, bat the mistress of the house, anxious
to avoid an unpleasant scene' prevented her. At a late
hour a lady of high rank and her daughters were
announced, mad the whole party rose to receive
them. IL R— takiag advantage of the slight
confusion which this mated, seised Mdlle. B—
by the hand, and whispered something in her ear.
She turned pale' then hiaslied, and replied in a low voice.
Thereupon, the young sea, without saying a word, pulled
a poignard from his psi" stabbed the young lady in the
bread., and then stabbed himself near the heart. Beth fell
bathed in blood. A swum was immediately seat for,
and en his arrival he fogad that the you'd of the young
lady was not aortal, tut* poignant had struck the sternum,
but the young man was quite dead. It is said that M.
R— had long sought Mdlle. B— in marriage, but that
she bad refused to accept him, and that meeting her at the
ball be had again pressed her to accept his addressee, but
that she had again peremptorily refused.
SHIPWRECK:HEROIC CONDUCT.— Between the
night of Sunday sad morning of Monday, the schooner
Marv, of Poole, with a cargo of pipeclay en beard, bound
for Newcastle, was observed by some fishermen off Whit.

oho was tacking of and on, in the hope of doubling Suter
Point, when she suddenly struck with great violence on the
rocks at Whitburn Steel, and the crow were in imminent
peril. The fishermen, however, gallantly manned the life-
boat, and dashing through the rolling surf, succeeded in
getting them all off the vessel and landing them lately at
Whitburn Brack. The muter of the vemel, who is also
principal owner, strange to say, has lost both hie heads, they
having been blown off while be was in the act of firing a
salute upon the coronation of the Queen.

point at Wu was discussed with dosed deers.
