THE ItIGIIT HON. CHARLES HOPE, LATE LORD
Putettizsr of the Court of Session, who has been seriously
ill for some weeks, become suddenly much worse in the
course of Monday night, and his son, who had come
clown to Ayrshire for a few days, was sent for express ,m
Tuesday morning. Mr. Hope is au the greatest danger, and
no improvement is expected.—North British Maid
DRAINING THE REGENT'S number of
workmen are now employed in digging deep trenches
across the Regent's Park, in order to lay down earthenware
tubes fur the purpose of effecting a thorongh drainage of
the ground in this locality, a most useful sanitary work
which will, it is to he hoped, be effectually completed.
THE WIDENING OP THE FOOTPATH along that
part of the New-road from St. Pancras church to King's
Cross, has r ndercd it necessary to shift the course of the
electric telegraph wires, and to remove the posts tome two
feet outwards, so as to place them, as before, upon the curb
parallel with the gas lamps.
THE GREAT BRITAIN STEAM-SHIP.-011 Thurs-
day this gigantic vessel was removed from the Sandon gray-
ing duck, where she has been undergoing repairs since
April last, and brought into the Wellington dock, where
her engines will be placed in her. She is to have six boilers,
three on each side, and two funnels, abreast of each other.
The machinery, which has been mado in London, is now
on board, and on its way to Liverpool. The alterations
in the ship have added materially to her appearance, and
they have also increased her capacity. By means f the
new deck house, the ship will be able to carry coals for
the voyage out and home, about 600 passengers, and 3,000
tons of measurement goods; whilst her engines, which
are nominally of the same power as before, but really
more efficient, will give her a higher speed. The new
screw is now fixed in its place. Its diameter is 15 feet 6
inches, and its pitch 19 feet. The rudder of the ship is
deserving of attention, inasmuch, as it differs, we believe,
from all other rudders. The rudder post may be termed
a bar of iron, firmly secured to the keel behind the pro-
peller, and rising to the iron work above the upper end
of the rudder post, inclining backwards. The rudder post
is turned at different diameters. taperiug downwards, so
that the rudder cannot get fast by working down. The
action of the rudder is partly upon the gee' pin, and
partly around the rudder post, which it is made to en-
circle; and vibration is prevented by a portion of the
rudder being made to project forward of the rudder post.

ASSAULT AND ROBBERS' DT SOLDIERS AT CHAT.
HANL—At the county magistrates' office at Rochester, on
Friday, Stephen Wheatley, Donald Livingstone, and John
Dover, privates in the Chatham division of Royal Marines,
were brought up in custody, severally charged with a bru-
tal assault on the person of George Brown, at Chatham,
and robbing him of three halferowns, two shillings, a knife,
aad tobacco-box. l'rosecutor, whose appearance bespoke
the mature of the usage to which lie had been subjected,
his free licering several cute, and the frock he wore being
saturated with blood, is a labouring man. The rubbery
was effected on the 25th ult., in a yard at the rear of one of
the public-houses in the town. The prisoners, who have
only been in the corps for a few months, being recruits
from the mining districts, were committed to the county
gaol, for trial at the next assizes.
A DESPERATE CtimtncrEn.—A horrible affair took
place yesterday afternoon, on the Page-place, three miles
from the city, resulting in the death of one main and the
wounding of another. The particulars are as follows :—A
man named Frank *hide!, living on the above place, had
abused his wife until she fled from her home, and appealed
he proteeti it to J. E. Cook, living near. For his kindness
le her, &hidd declared he would shoot Cook, nod at one
eslock yesterday afternoon he approached Cook as he was
se work, having a gun in his hand. He was ordered off by
Cook; he left, and on reaching the fence, ho stated to
Cook that he was going to shoot him; in an instant he
liked, a part of the charge entering Cook's breast, giving a
severe but not dangerous wound. Cook immediately
battened to the city, and procured from Justice Wetmore
• warrant for Schidel's arrest. Thu warrant was placed in
the hands of a constable named Smith. On leaving, he was
cautioned against attempting the a without weapons.
He thought it en easy matter, however; but on attempting
to enter Sehidel's house, a short time before sundown, the
latter deliberately fired the contents of his gun, the whole
charge entering Smith's breast, in the region of the heart,
hem the effects of which we learned atter dark he died.
Schidel closed his house, and prepared himself with arms,
and declares he will shoot any man through the heart that
will dare to approach his house. Marshall M'Cullough was
furnished with the warrant about seven o'clock, and will
make the arre4 as soon as postible. Schidel is a desperate
character, and shot a man four years ago.—St. Louis ( Mo.)
