LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY.
The official inquiry into the loss of the steam-
ship Anglo-Saxon was resumed to-day before Mr. Raffia
and Captains Baker and Harris. The first witness examined
was W. Jenkins, purser of the Anglo-Saxon, who said that
of the passengers on board at the time there were saved
33 cabin and 104 steerage, 71 officers and men of the crew,
and one HMI officer, making a total of B)9. There were

drowned 15 cabin and 'ale steerage passengers and 15 of the
mew, including the captain, total, 938. Witness wee below
when the vessel struck, and so slight was the shock, thathe
scarcely noticed it. lie heard the captain then cry out
" Herd a starboard ;" witness then went on deck. When
he reached the deck, he heard the captain giving instruc-
tion* to back the ship at full speed. After this witness
went forward and helped the captain to get a rope ashore.
In their first attempt the rope slipped from their hands, but
ultimately two ropes were secured to the rocks, and by these
a number of steerage passengers were conveyed to the shore.
When the ship began to settle down there was a great rush
to the shore side, and the people jumped into the water,
but as there was 30 feet of water space between the ship
and the shore a great number of the passengers were
drowned, although • few were rescued by being pulled out
of the water with the ropes. Whilst the ship was breaking
up the mainmast fell seaward. There were a number of
persona clinging to it, and they were carried over the ship
and drowned, it being impossible to render assistance from
the shore. Witness saw No. 3 boat capsized with about
a dozen passengers in it. The boat struck on the rocks
bottom upwards, and was dashed to pieces. There were
some people in the fore rigging, but only two were rescued,
and a number of passengers in the other parts of the
rigging were also drowned. When it was impossible to save
any more lives some of the crew were despatched in search
of human habitations, and the people busied themselves in
securing wood and other necessaries for an emer-
gency. Before the vessel broke up witinas saw
Captain Burgess, who was at the gangway assisting
passengers into the baskets, and saw him again on deck
about live minutes before the ship settled down. Captain
Burgess wags second officer in the Montreal service from
11456 to 1859, and a first officer from 1859 to 1861, after
which time he sailed as a master. The c .ptain was up
night after night whilst the ship was approaching and in
the ice, and he appeared to do everything that was right.
Witness had the highest opinion of the captain,
h as• sailor and • man. Voyages to Quebec bed been
made earlier in the season than when the Anglo-Saxon
started. He (witness) bad gone • week earlier in 1858.
During that voyage the St. Lawrence was found clear of
ice, though • great quantity of field ice was passed in the
Gulf stream. The lUth of April was about the usual time
the spring voyages commented. Witness never heard of
one of the boats landing with only five persons in it.
M')isster, first engineer, was next examined. He
described the voyage until Sunday the 26th April at 2 p.m.
when the ice off Newfoundland was cleared and the
engines ware worked at full speed. The engines were kept
at full speed until eight o'clock the next morning, when the
fog became very dense, and the captain ordered them to be
put at hall speed. At haltpast 11 a.m. was standing on
the bridge with the captain, when the first officer reported
that he heard the 'wadi:4 breakers. The captain said, 'lt
cannot be ; tt must be ice." Shortly after this the look-out
shouted " Breakers a-head." The captain then ordered the
engines to be reversed at full speed. This was done,
but the vessel struck on the rocks astern. Witness then
ordered the second engineer to stand by the bilge pumps,
and the ship was then turned ahead at full speed, in com-
please with the captain's instructions. Witmer again felt
the ship strike forward, and finding the water rising in the
stokeholes, ordered the safety valves to be opened. The
men in his department then went on deck and assisted in
getting the boats out. He concurred in the statements
made by the last witness relative to the lauding of pas-
sengers' Am Witness explained that he assisted in towing
No. 2 boat toCepe Baca. He had been sent off from the
ship to look for • landing to a boat which contained but few
persona. She was in charge of a merchant captain named
Crawford, who was a passenger ou board the Anglo-Saxon.
The boat was unable to find • landing, and also, on account
of the fog, was unable to return to the ship.
Mr. O'Dowd said he was glad that this statement had
been made, as it set at rest an allegation that the boat
was capable of containing 40 persons, and through some
carelessness had only a few people in it.
Gilbert Little, segment purser, was the next witness
examined. His statements contained no fact of intereet.

COUNTY of BUSHEY V. YOHICSHIBL—This match
was resumed yesterday morning from the previous evening,
on the Surrey ground, Kennington-oval. Rain, however,
aeon came on, and stopped the play till hall-past 4. when
it we/ again resumed. The match will be continued this
morning at 11 o'clock.
MARYLEBONE CLUB AND GROUND AGAINST THE
COUNTY or SURVEIL—Thin great match will be commenced
on Monday at Lord's ground. The following is a list of
the sides :—Marylebone Club and ground.—Mr. W. Ben-
thall, Mr. C. G. Charles, Mr. R. Forster, Mr. W. Nichol-
we, Mr. F. & Stacey, Mr. E. Trsdoroft, Mr. C. Wadeson,

field, Wharton, Wells, Widen.

The Field says :—" If his Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales be willing to cultivate the most beautiful
part of our racing system, so as to add utility to the per-
sonal pleasure and popularity he •ill attain, then we say
let him turn his attention to the breeding of thorough-bred
stock. There is a magnificent opening, which may
be entered upon under the best auspices—the good
wishes of a whole people. The most skilful ad-
vice, we are assured, would be at the Prince's
service. He is surrounded by gentlemen of ex-
perience and of practical sod theoretical knowledge.
The racecourse has learnt to do little enough, as it now
exists, to insure the fulfilment of its original intention ; it
improves remarkably the condition and pockets of some
of its votaries, but it Nile to affect, in the minutest degree,
the general capability of the hack or the hunter which we
rids. It is worse than useless, for its perpetuation of bad
horses is mischievous ; and there is perhaps nothing in the
world about which a betting man knows so little as about
the hone which he backs, if we regard its quality or
form."

George Fordham, who met with an accident in
the first race at Ascot on Thursday last, through Curie
falling on him, was much better on Friday evening, though
confined to his bed, being very much bruised and shaken.

Two Voixtrraams BlLL—Last evening a meeting
of the committee, representing the interests of these volun-
teen who object to certain provisions in this bill, was held
at the Whittington Club, with a view to orpoise a public
meeting, preparatory to the measure being taken into the
Home of Lords. It was slated that the committee having
succeeded in getting clause 19( which rendaredyol U 0 teen liable
to be called out in cam of riot) expunged io the House of
Commons, were resolved to make an effort to produce the
same result in regard to clauses 21 and 24, in the House of
Lords. The opinion of Lieutenant-Colonel Wards, com-
manding the London Rifle Bilged., was produced, exprem-
ing his approval of the objections to those clauses ; end a
strong feeling was =maenad in opposition to the bill as it
now stood in the House of Commons.

Yr. John Leber., optician, who adjusts the compasses of
the principal steamship companies, deposed that he adjusted
the compass of the Anglo Saxon supplied by Mr. Gray on
the let of November, mad he found it pettedly correct. The
compass was a new one at that time.
Samuel T. Green, mail officer, remembered the morning of
the 27th of April. On the evening of Sunday witness
had a conversation with Capt. Burgess. He was aware of
the distance they were from Cape Race, and the rate
the ship was going—twelve mile. en hour—and he made a
calculation, and found we should be at Cape Race about
eight o'clock on the following morning. W Anima met the
captain, and said, " Captain Burger, I suppose we shall bs
up at the Cape at eight o'clock to-morrow morning."
The captain considered a moment or two, and then said,
" Yes, about eight o'clock." Witness was aware of instruc-
tor:a having been given to call at Cape Race to Imre the
state of the St. Lawrence, and whether the ship should proceed
there or go to another port. He expected instruotiorm from
the government relative to the mails would be delivered at
Caps Race. He came on deck a few submits, before eight
o'clock on the morning of the 27th, and found the ship
stripped of all canvas, and going at half speed. He spoke to
the captain, tad asked him how long he thought the weather
would continue unfavourable, and asked ban if he would
sight the Cape, and the captain said " Certainly not."
Witham then raked him where he would go, and he said to
Quebec, as they were then 17 miles to the southward of that
point, and they would be going out of their way. At about
11 a.m. witness was in the office writing, when he became
conscious that the ship bad stopped, and thinking the ship
was at Cape Race he went on deck at the port side, where
he met the second engineer, who took hold of him and ex-
claimed, "My God! Sir. Green, have you seen that!" and
he then looked out and saw land far above the mast head.
He then went to the bridge, and said. " My God' captain,
what is this!" The captain said something which he did
not understand. After this he went to the engine tele-
graph, at the request of the captain, and put the vessel
a.head slow. The look-out cried, • Breakers a-head," and
the engines were then reversed at full speed. After this
he went to the bridge, and when he goc there the ship
came crash againA the rocks. The engines at this time
began to tell oo her, and ran her esters, but she struck
again heavily io that dinction' and again went forward.
W Auriga went to the side of the vessel, looked over, and
saw that the rudder had been carried away, and that the pro-
peller had a large piece knocked out of it. He informed the
captain that the rudder was gone, and when she struck again
the order was given to let go both anchors, sod he heard
the chains running out. Orders were then given to clear
the bate. A good many people got into No 2 boat, which
was in charge of Captain crawford, who said he would look
for a landing place. The captain said that would do, bat
Crawford must burry back again. The boat was not halt
fall, but it never returned. Captain Burger repeatedly
asked where Captain Crawford was, and frequently said,
" My God ! where has Crawford goner' Another boat
went away with the fourth officer and some passengers and
gallon. No. 4 boat was taken possession of by pert of the
crew—five sailors. Directly these men were in the boat
they pushed off from the ship and lay in the offing, about
100 yude from the ship. Two of the boats were rendered
useless, by hanging directly over the rooks. Witness asked
the captain to afford him the meson of saving the mails. and
he said he would do so when the paseeugers were attended
to. Mr. Hove, the chief officer, and others, eodea-
Toured to make No. 4 boat come to the rescue,
but the sailors would pay no attention. The captain asked
witness if he would take charge of the bosh; said bring "those
scoundrels in," meaning the sailors in No. 4 boat, and he
said he would du so. The captain was vexed with the men,
se witness never maw him out of temper before. W hen
wither procured a boat, he pulled out to No. 4, sod asked
the men Why the they did not come in The
men said they could not, as the people would swamp Huh.
boat. Withers said hie instructions were to run into their
brat if they would not obey orders, and that the captain
would hang them on a yardarm. Witness further told the
men that there was no danger, as there were only • few
women and children, and that be would take the first in-
stalment. His boat took in 21 passengers, amongst them
the Hon. Mrs. Young, and No. 4 boat then came alongside
and took the saloon passengers who ware saved. After
this, witnem's boat took the Hon. Mr. Young and two other
passengers from No. 4. If there had been ten minutes
logger they might have saved the whole of the saloon
passengers, bat the ship began to heel over, and the boats
were obliged to pull away. The captain nd first officer
were exerting themselves to the utmost. After pulling
away witness did not see the captain again. Witness
pinked up two passengers who were swimming in the water
—the Rev. C. P. Eaton, and Captain Cassidy, of the 30th
Regimeat.
A letter was here read from the Rev. C. Eaton and Captain
Cassidy, stating that one of the boats deserted them, and
that if it had not been for Mr. Green they would have

IMPROVEMENT OF THE CONDITION OF MERCHANT
BEAMEN.—A public meeting of merchants, shipowners,
commanders of vemele, end others interested in maritime
affairs wee held yesterday at the London Tavern, to bear
an address from Captain Toynbee on the beet measures to
be adopted for improving the condition of the merchant
icemen of Great Britain. Sir JAMIE DUKE, M.P., presided,
sad expressed his entire sympathy with the object of the
meeting, and his willingness to render every aid in carrying
it into effect. Captain Toynbee then delivered •
lengthy address on the present condition of the
tailors in the merchant service, which, although he-
proved of late wan, still fell far abort of what
it ought to be, aid pointed out many measures which, if
adopted, would greatly improve that condition. The pro-
minent features urged in the plan of Captain Toyota's
were the establishment of • home for the wives and families
of sailors while absent abroad. and the formation of a fund,
to which sailors should subscribe, to make a provision for
themselves in old age, and for the support of their widows
and orphans after their decease. The gallant captain pointed
out how these thinpeould be accomplished if set about in a
right spirit. He said the suclena of such • fund se the one
proposed already existed in the amount now lying as un-
claimed sailors' wages, amounting to 60,0001., which could
not be mere appropriately used. Them wen a large sum
also lying idle at the Trinity-house, which would no doubt
be available. Captain Maude, RN., Lientenent
Captain Shaw, end other gentlemen, expressed a gesanl
approval of the views enunciated by Caption Toynbee, to
whom a vote of thanks was given for his addrees, and one
to the chairman for presiding on the clocasios.

BOARD OF TRADE, WHITEHALL. JUNE 4.—The
Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade
have received • copy of a Spanish royal decree, tor-
warded by her Majesty's Charge d'Affaires et Madrid,
declaim( the ports of Cents ad Melilla, and the Chafe:ins
Woods to be free ports, and providing that vessels with
'ergo shall pay port and health dues only at those porta—
Wanelle.

Witnees cautioned—With one @Mile exception all the
sailors were in their wrung boats. Statements had been
made that every (me appeared to be doing the beet for him-
self, but he (witness) did not complain of anything but the
conduct of the men in No. 4 boat, and the fact that nearly
all the men were in their wrong boats- It was witness's
duty to make a report of anything particular which occurred
to delay the ship—either negligence on board, or other
matters—and be therefore took particular notice of the
conduct of the officers. From his observations he believed
Captain Burgess to be one of the most careful seamen in the
Montreal Company's service? and a man who paid the utmost
attention to the safety of his ship, and the safety and com-
fort of the immengess. Is answer to Captain Harris, wit-
ness said there was so doubt that if a fog signal had been on
the coast the vessel would not have been lost.
The court thee adjourned.

THE FATAL BOAT ACCIDENT AT CAMBRIDGE.

An inquiry was held yesterday at the Rsd Lion,
in the village of Grantchester (about two miles from
Cambridge), before Mr. Barlow, coron'r for the county,
into the circumstances attending the death of Mr. Isaac
Pull, student and scholar of Emmanuel College, Cambridge,
who was drowned in the River Cam, between Cambridge
and Grantcheeter, on the previous day, as reported in our
yesterday's impression. The Rev. Mr. Fuller, of Em-
manuel College, was present, representing the friends of the
deceased. The following evidence was adduced :

Mr. David Jones Davis., undergraduate of Emmanuel
College, deposed— I knew the deceased, Mr. Isaac Peak ; be
was of Emmanuel College, too. Yesterday deceased, I, and
another (Mr. James Barden Adamson) came up the river in
canoes. We left Cambridge about half-past nine. Mr.
Adamson is of Emmanuel. Neither of us was accustomed to
rowing in canoes. It was the first time we had done so.
Neither of us could swim. We all agreed to go in canoes,
but did not think of the danger. We started from Good's
boat-house, by the mill, cameop the river slowly, and
reached within about half a mile of Grantcheater. There is
there a slight bend in the river, and • very deep hole. I
was a little in front of and Mr. Adamson •
little behind deceased, each • few yards. I saw Mr. Peak's
canoe capsize and himself immersed. He did not sink at
first, but struggled in the water. There was a short in-
terval, during which he was quiescent, sod then he strug-
gled again ; his bead wee then not quite covered. He fell
on his back after the second struggle, with hie arms lifted
up. I then saw him sink gradually till the depth of water
hid him front my sight. I was in great confusion. I tried
to reach the bank. Mr. Adamson reached the bank before
I did ; but by the time we were up the bank Mr. Peek had
sunk out of sight. He had made no complaint that morning of
pain or numbness in the head, but conversed in his
usual style when on the river. He appeared quite in his
usual health. I have known him duce last. October. Deceased
was about 20 years of age. On reaching the bank Mr. Adamson
ran with all speed to the village, directing me to wait at
the enact spot. Tne accident occurred at half-past 10.
About 10 to 15 minutes after Mr. Adamson started for the
village he was back with amistance. When they arrived I
left to procure something to get deceased up. When I»-
tamed I saw men in the water. The drags were obtained,
and eventually the body was brought to shore with them ;
that was about 20 to 25 minutes after he sank, and be ap-
to be quite dead. All did their best to recover
Mir:ed He was undressed, rubbed with blankets, and artifi-
cial respiration was attempted to be brought about, but all
was of no avail, and I and Mr. Adamson left to acquaint the
College authorities. I returned, sad found that the body
had been removed to this house, and medical men were
esent.
pr
By the Foreman—There had been no "larking)' on the
river; we all rowed up slowly and steadily.
Mr. James Barden Adamson, undergraduate of
Emmanuel, in the main corroborated the evidence of the
last witness. He said : We bad none of us been in canoes
before. I could not swim, but I had heard Mr. ?ask say he
could swim • stroke or two. I was behind Mr. Pask—about
20 yards—so that my face was directed to hie back, but I
did not see him actually capsized. When I heard the splash
and saw him in the water he was in front of his boat:
the head of the latter was directed straight up the river.
Can give no information at all as to the eau's' of
the capsize. Ceo my nothing as to the current at the
spot of the accident, as I never reached it. For
a short time after immersion deceased appeared
to be endeavouring to support himself by what is termed
" treading water,' but he suddenly threw up his handsaell
on his back, and sunk. He only made one exclamation
when in the water, when he threw up his hands, and that
was, " Oh!" I tan off for assistance as woe as I reached the
bank. Two men went into the water after deceased, but the
body was recovered by the dregs at the first attempt. It
bed then been in the water at least twenty-five minutes.
The accident took place at the widest part of the river.
Mr. Thomas Smsllman, of Grantchester. said he was
summoned to assist, and on has way, finding the body hod
not been brought out, sent back for • small private drag,
with which he brought out the body at the first throw.
Two men were in the water searching for deceased when
witness arrived, but their efforts were impeded by
the congregation of a number of females on the
bank, so that modesty restrained the men from getting
out of the river to plunge. The position of the body
was revealed to witness by a transitory gleam of sun-
shine. It was nearer the aids than the middle of the
river. The water is more than 12 feet deep there. De-
ceased was quite dead when taken out. Witness tried
all means prescribed by the Royal Humane Society for
the resuscitation of apparently drowned persona, but
without effect, till Mr. Fawcett, enrgeon, of Cambridge.
arrived, and pronounced him dead. Was told on arrival
at the river that the body had been 20 minutes in the
water then, sod it was 20 minutes more before it was
taken out. Some delay was caused by • person telling
witness's little boy (the messenger) that the small drag
was of no use, and sending him to a farm-house for a horse
drag ; so that witness had to send a second messenger
for the small dreg.
The jury immediately returned a verdict of "Acci-
dentally drowned," all concurring in the danger of the um
of the canoe. by persons who cannot swim.
The remains of the deceased have since been brought to
Loudon for interment. This unfortunate occurrence has
thrown a gloom over the whole of the University, but more
especially the society of which Mr. Peak was • member, in
which be had just concluded the June examination, and
achieved the place of honour of first man of his year.
The unfortunate young man received his early education
at the North London Collegiate School, at which he gained
the highest honours, and carried off an unusual share of
prizes. His loss is a severe blow to his unhappy parents,
whose hopes were centred in his future career, from which
much was expected by all who knew him.
