BOARD OF TRADE INQUISIES. —A strong point
in favour of them inquiries was yesterday Drought oat by
Mr. Raffles, the Liverpool stipendiary magistrate, who
acted sa legal assessor in an inquiry. into the oironmetances
attending the loss of the ship newt Queue. Mr. Raffles
said that he had not been called upon to rit on • similar
inquiry minim May het, and he was of opinion that Board
of Trade inquirieemademasters far more eareird, and were
the indirect mesas of saving much valuable property.
DESPATCH or Moors rams LiriotrooL rot
(lawn rra. —Yesterday the government made arrangements
with Messrs. A. B. Porwood and Co., of the West India
and Pacifio Steamship Company, for the conveyance of
troops from Liverpool to Calcutta. The ship selected
was the Australian, Captain Hoare, and is now
undergoing • sung for the acoommodation of the
troops. Tke vessel will sail on the 27th inst., with
one field officer, three captains seven Enbaltems, one
medical officer and his wife, 600 men, 85 women, and 43
children. The Australian is one of the finest vessels
afloat, so far as a strew transport, and there can be no
doubt but that the ship and Captain Roam will give
satisfaction to the government.
COVET-MARTIAL ON SERGEANT MAGUIRE, TEI
ALLEGED FWIIAN.—The general court-martial appointed
to try Sergeant Francis Maguire. of the 72nd Highlanders.
for supposed complicity with Fenianism, was concluded
on Thursday last. The trial took place M the barracks,
Weedon, to which place Maguire had been removed.
There was noexcitement, and few persons seemed to be
aware of the trial taking place. Colonel Elrington, of the
4th battalion Rifle Brigade, was president of the court ;
Lieutenant-Colonel Main was the deputy judge-advocate ;
and Major Hunter, of the 72nd, posectited. On Tuesday
morning the prisoner mss arraigned on four charges,
viz.—First. For conduct to the prejudice of good
order and military discipline, fr that he did
on the 24th November, 1867, o
in the public
streets o
rate Manchester, knowingly and wilfully join in a
party pon intended as • demonstration of sympathy
with a Reasonable association called the Fenian Brother-
hood. Secondly. For conduct to the prejudice of good order
and military discipline, for that he on the day aforesaid,
in the public streets afocessid, did uuntenance and attend
• meeting for party and political purposes. Thirdly. For
conduct to the prejudice of pod order and military disci-
pline, for that he did whilst on guard at the New
Bailey Prison, Salford, make use of language in-
subordinate and calculated to create alarm, by saying.
"If there were fifty man like me we should soon
get the prisoners out," or words to that effect.
Fourthly. For conduct to the prejudice of good order and
military discipline, for that he did, on the day aforesaid,
and at the place aforesaid, make use of language insub-
ordinate and calculated to create alarm, by saying, "If
there were thirty men like me I would defy the guard or •
hundred men to keep them out of the prison," or words to
that effect. A number of witnesses were examined in sup-
port of the charges, and the Deputy Judge-Advocate having
reviewed the evidence the court deliberated, but the re-
sult, RS a matter of course, will not be known until
officially published.
THE WREcli 01 THE CHICAGO.—This unfortu-
nate vessel is an entire wreck. The Cork Examiner says
that at an early hour on Wednesday morning she com-
menced to break up. The wind, which was blowing vio-
lently from the S.W. on Tuesday, changed at dusk to a
northerly point, but a heavy ground swell set in, to
which the vessel was obliged to succumb. Tremendous
waves rolled continually over the ship, shaking her
greatly ; for while the in-coining wave would thrust
her further on shore, the receding one would, with
equal force, bring her out. Though strongly built she
was—and ample proof of her strength was given by
the manner in which she withstood the gale of Tuesday
—the ship could not hold out long in such weather as
this, and on Wednesday morning at day-light it was
perceived that both her masts and funnel were gone,
having been literally shaken out of their places by the
bossy rolling of the ship on the rocks. Her decks were
also much strained, and a little later in the morn-
ing she commenced to break on the starboard side.
The Chicago was then in the same position—her stem
facing the westward—but she was lying entirely over on
the port side. Her bottom oould be easily men from the
shore, and from the large breach which was first made
amidships on the starboard bilge by striking on the reef,
her plates began to separate. At five on Wednesday
evening she parted in the middle, and the cargo, con-
misting of grain and cotton, were soon after Imbed
on shore. The shore is also strewn with wreck,
consisting of cabin furniture, sails, sspan,
and it was stated that during the night ggrreeaat
plunder of articles of this kind was made by the wreckers.
Coastguards, a few marines, and police were there ; but
owing to the length of oust over which they had to watch,
and the fewness of their numbers, it was impossible to
prevent the plunder. Wednesday morning, however,
when the news reached Queenstown of the condition of
the ship, • further detachment of marines was sent to the
scene of the wreck, and it is expected the valuable portion
of the cargo—the cotton—will all be saved. Inducement
is also offered the wreckers, by liberal payment; to restore
any of the wrecked property they pick up, and it is ex-
pected this will help to the recovery of a good deal. The
Chicago is insured for 60,000/. ; but, of course, that sum
will not at all cover the loss.
The dissensions in the London Rifle Brigade of
Volunteers are happily at an end. At a meeting of the
Court of Lieutenancy on Thursday afternoon, Major Rose
naked to be permitted to withdrew his name as • candidate
for the second lieutenant-coloneley of the brigade, as he
was most reluctant to do anything likely to jeopardise its
interests. The court approved and commended the action
of Sir W. Rose and the letter of withdrawal was ordered
to be forwarded to the Warroffice forthwith.
VOLUNTEKIrs YOH THE POPS.— A correspondent
sends the following to the Liverpool Daily Post :—" A
short time ego an advertisement appeared in one of the
local weekly papers, intimating that volunteers' were
' wanted for foreign service.' Many inquiries were put
forward as to what service they were required for, and it
was whispered at the time they were to assist Garibaldi in
his raid upon the Papal States. Since then all doubts
have been cleared up, inasmuch as the men are wanted to
form an English brigade for the defence of his Holiness.
Several of the leading members of the catholic community
throughout England took the matter in hand, and
in a abort time the whole of the preliminary
arrangements for the formation of a brigade were
completed. Liverpool being one of the chief
centres of catholicity in this country, it is contemplated
to make it a rendezvous for the battalion. On Friday
night a meeting of several of the promoters of the scheme
was held at the Victoria Hotel, Limmstreet. During the
evening the warmest sentiments were expressed for the
welfare of his Holiness, and the maintenance of his tem-
poral power. It was decided to place the whole of the
military arrangements under the management of an expe-
rienced officer, and with that object • gentleman. who has
held rank in the British and American services, has been
offered, and has formally accepted the command. A large
number of efficient men have already been enrolled, and
it may be safely predicted that ere long the first batch of
the English detachment will be on their way to Rome."—

TYPHMUs. —The correct pronunciation of the
name of this Derby horse has formed the subject of mad-
derable discussion, one party eonteading that the letters o •
should be written and spelled as • diphthong, and that the
pronunciation should be Ty-phieus. Thin u incorrect The
proper way of spelling the name is Typhoeus, and the
correct mode of pronunciation is 7y-pAo-rus. The reason
of this is, that in the original Greek the final letter of the
penultimate is omega, or broad 0, which does not form •
diphthong with another vowel ; were it spelled in the
Greek with OV:itYO3l, or short o as la Phoilms, and efusikr
words, it would form a diphthongi with e and in English
would be spelled " Typisceus."--Sportiag Lila

THE, PROPOSID SOUTHERN RAILWAY FEDERAL.
rnor.—The inhabitants of Brighton look with much disfa-
vour upon the proposed amalgamation of the Southern
Railway Companies. As is well known, parliament bad
sanctioned the making of • second and competing line to
the popular resort, which line was granted on the joint
request of the South Eastern and Chatham and Dover
Companies. These companies now apply to parliament to
abandon the scheme, and the towurpeople are greatly
annoyed at what they look upon as a breach of faith. The
town council took the matter up, and at this week's
meeting • report was presented by the General Purposes
Committee upon the subject. The report recommended
that the bill abandoning this line, the bill of the Brighton
Railway Company for abandoning certain works and taking
to increase the existing rates and fares, and the
Welts establishing a working union of the companies,
should be
injuriouspoeed, " many of their provisions
being very to the general interests of the
borough." IThe committee therefore recommended that the
town council should petition against the bills, and direct
the town clerk " to make the most strenuous opposition to
their passing (into law." In supporting the adoption of
the report, Alderman Smaller* said that if the South
Western Company joined this amalgamation they would
have one of the most monstrous monopolies in creation.
The public would be more avowed than ever. We should
have minimum aecommodationland maximum charge. He
could not conceive that parliament would allow the whole
south of England to be committed to the hands of these
monopolists. He hoped that not only. the inha-
bitants of Brighton but of all the towns in the four
southern counties would induce their members to oppose
these bills in parliament, and so get rid of a gigantic mo-
nopoly. Mr.lticu (councillor) said visitors had been
driven from Brighton to other places by the iate increase
of fares. Mr. Lamb said the conduct of the South Eastern
Company had been a monstrous insult to the town. They
had induced the inhabitants to support the second and
independent line, and had then abandoned it to enter into
this combination. It was no use to talk or appeal to di-
rectors, but be hoped they would have the support of the
public in opposing this violation of faith on the part of
those who had so bungled and mismanaged affairs as to be
obliged to ask the public to put their hands in their
pockets and pay for that mismanagement. The motion
for adopting the report and opposing the bills was carried
unanimously.
A COAL PIT ON FIRE.—At Mr. Stone's colliery,
Handley-green, near Wigan, • serious fire has been raging
during the past week. It is supposed to have been caused
by the man in charge of the furnace placing • quantity of
hot ashes in • tub at the bottom of the shaft, and neglect-
ing to send them up on Saturday night. The fire was dia.
covered early on Sunday morning, when of course the coal
in the neighbourhood of the pit eye was in combustion.
On Monday morning the pit was covered in. and it con-
tinued in that state till Wednesday, when an engine be-
longing to Mr. Diggle, of Higher Hall, was brought to
bear upon the dames. The engine was worked fur the
greater part of the day, and an attempt was then made to
get through the working., but before half an hour had
elpmed the fire broke out again, and the men were corn.
to return to the surface. The shaft was again
closed, and on Thursday night or yesterday it was proposed
to wake another attempt, though it was feared it would be
unsuccessful. About 30 men have been thrown out of em-
ployment.
A STRIKE AT A COTTON MlLL.—There is now
pending, at the mill of Mr. Richard Goodair, Preston, a
dispute that has already caused some commotion, and is
likely to remit in legal procieedinp being taken on the
part of the operatives. On the 4th of January the " wilts" ,
woven at Mr. Goodair's establishment were changed from
Ws to 40's cloth, and this was accompanied by a reduc-
tion of Nit. in the payment for its weaving. The opera-
tives calculated that the change would involve only a re-
duction of 9-101. in the paynieut, and sent several deputa-
tions to the master to see if an alteration could not be
effected. Having met with no success, about a quarter to
twelve on Monday week 250 of the operatives stopped
their looms, and refused to work until a wore just settle.
went had been agreed upon. During the dinner hoar a
deputation waited upon Mr. Edmondson, the secretary
of the Power-loom Weavers' Association, and he told
them the operatives should at once resume work,
but the deputation were unable to Induce the opera-
tives to accept this advice, and a meeting was hell
in the evening at the Stockwell Inn, Brookatreet, when
Mr. Edmundson prevailed upon them to begin work at the
usual time next morning, and to give their notices in on
Thursday morning if they could not get their grievances
redreemd. No arrangement having been come to, on
Thursday all the workpeople' gave their notices in, with
the exception of about ten who were connected by family
ties with persons filling other situations in the mill. On
Saturday afternoon each of those who bad stopped their
looms on the Monday had a deduction made in the week's
earnings of 2a. lid., and this caused a great deal of
grumbling on the part of the operatives, who contended
that the loos was one which they bad to bear themselves,
and that as they were only off five hours the deduction
was altogether unreasonable and excessive. As the opera-
tives thus fined numbered about 250, the tosal amount
deducted was upwards of 301. The question has been
already submitted to the consideration of • legal gentle-
man, and it is very probable that the question as to the
legality of flue, dc., will be fully investigated before the
borough magistrates in the course of next week.—Preston

THE THREATENED STRIKE IN NORTH STAFFORD-
fooRg,—With reference to the threatened strike in the
North Staffordshire iron trade, we are informed that so
great was she disinclination of the employers to propose a
reduction in the wages of the men, that at their last meet-
ing it was suggested that the works should be closed for a
time with the simple announcement that the current
peioes of iron did not enable them to pay the present rate
of wages, and to leave the men to make any proposal of
their own ; but against that it was argued that it was
taking a great responsibility upon themselves to deprive a
large body of workmen of employment, and that the
alternative should he presented to the men of • reduc-
tion of wages to • rate at which the ironmasters
mold take orders. At the same time the ironmesters
stated distinctly that with them it was simply a question
of closing their works until better prices could be ob-
tained, or of inducing the men to consent to reductions
which would enable them to compete in the market with
other district& It is a fact that some of the konmasters
have during the depression of trade which has now existed
for some time past, made iron for stock with the sole
object of giving the men as much employment as possible,
without any prospect of selling the iron produced. Under
them circumistanees there is not the slightest probability
of the employers retreating from the position they have
taken.
