A terrible catastrophe befel the Russian ship
Raumo, outward bound to Gibraltar from Cardiff, on Sunday
Let, by an explosion among her cargo (1,061 tons of steam
Welsh coals), when the ship was in the Bristol Channel,
about 50 miles west of Lundy Island, by which she was
eo extensively damaged that she foundered, and twelve of
her crew, it is feared, were lost. The Raumo was a large
fir-built ship of nearly 1.000 tons burthen, and was owned
by Mews. S. E. Oestander, at Itaumo, where she was built
in 1860. The sworn deposition of Captain Guitars Robert
Soderlaund, the master, taken before the Receiver of
Wreck at Padatow, and which was received at the Board of
Trade yesterday, furnishes the following platitude!' of the
loss of the ship :
" We sailed from Cardiff on the 27th of last mouth, oar
crew numbering in all 19 hands. The coals were shipped by
Messrs. David and Son, merchants, at Cardiff, and were
consigned to a firm at Gibraltar. Brewing the peculiar
character of the end to generate gas in ships' liolds, and the
accidents that have taken place from the hatches being kept
on, 1 kept our hatches off for several days after miliagfrom
Cardiff. and gave strict orders to the crew not to go below
with a light. The hatches were kept off till the morning of
the 3rd inst. (Sunday last) when extraordinary heavy
weather compelled them to be battened down, to prevent
the water getting through. The explosion took place abou'
2 o'clock in the afternoon, the ship being under all sail and
about 50 miles west of Lundy Island. There was no warn-
ing whatever—the force was tremendous, and for a moment
the entire ship presented one sheet of flame. It blew up the
decks entirely, carryiog away the boat*, destroying the sails,
rigging, and bursting out bows. Four of the crew, who were
below in the forecastle, were never seen afterwards, and must
have been killed. On recovering from the shock, diecovered the
ship was making water fast, and before they could get to the
boats to MVO themselves she capsized and shortly disap-
peared. The remainder of the crew (fifteen) got into the
boats, and pulled for the land. In the course of the follow.
ing night, it being very dark, and a stiff breeze blowing
from the N.W., the boat's party compared, and at daylight
on Monday morning those in the pinnace along with the
captain could not see anything of the other boat. About
six o'clock on Monday evening a vessel hove in sight and
picked them up. The vessel proved to be the schooner
Herald, of Pannone, Captain White master, which Laded
them safely the next day at Padatow. The loss of the ship
is estimated at 7,0001. was insured for 5,5001., and her

and asopreeisted, for then, he was sure, it would be far

tostitution founded on right principles, having the morn
worthy objects., and calculated to do an immense
meant of good. Very little of its money was lost
in passing from those who had to contribute to
them who had to receive. He observed that during
the pest year the association had contributed up-
wards at 3401. in various rums to the relief of about forty
perinea, and as each of those persona might be taken to

Mr. Begley opposed on behalf of two creditors, one of
whom had proved for 8001., and the other for 4501. He
charged the bankrupt with having made false reproentations
to oredikes within a month before the bankruptcy ; also
with receiving money in advance for corn which he asserted
he powered, when in twit be had none, and failed to deli-
ver any for the money he had so received.
Mr. Lucas opposed for a creditor for 1261., and charged
the bankrupt with having obtaired corn, and given a boll
for the same, which was dishonored.
Mr. Groom opposed for a creditor for 1561., and also
charged the bankrupt with having made false representa-
tions in his commercial dealing,.
Mr. C. E. Lewis (Harrison and Lewis) supported the
bankrupt.
Mr. Davie, a miller, at Battersea, was examined by Mr.
Prentice, and deposed u follows :—I need to bay wheat of
the bankrupt and pay him for it in advance, and generally
allowed him to deliver it at his 01,11 00W/111110011. Urge
quantities of my wheat would eaersquently sometimes lie,
or I supposed it wee, in hie peseemlion. On the 9th No-

for ten years, and my transactions with him have averaged
25,0001. to 30.0001. per annum. I west down to Uxbridge
on the 10th November. I took my solicitor with me, and
the bankrupt gave him a declaration of insolvency. A
meeting of Credit/VI was celled, and they agreed to accept
101. In the pound, if it was secured. The arrangement,
however, was not completed, and Basset was accordingly
made a bankrupt upon my petition. I never paid or re-
ceived " diffmenoes," nor do I believe it is a custom of our
trade. I would not swear I have not done rich a thing.
My account with Basset was settled and " squared" up to
Junelast. Up to that time I have nothing to complain of.

Mr. Lewis—What ! your nephew had 37 quarters of corn

The Timm, the Deily News,

A great deal had bees said on former occasions of the ab-
sence of petitions os the part of the leading insurnice
offices of the country ; but this evening • petition had
been pet:sesta from ell the leading insurance offices pro-
testing so den the moat duty. And this eircumetenee
bad the more force because the ununince offices derived
large income from the discounting of the large sung which
they paid as duty. They could, therefore, be moved by so
other consideration than this, that if the duty was reduced
their business would be largely increased, and
their revenue greatly segmented. If that was the
view of the insurance offices, the eery eases con-
sideration should also weigh with the government. Thiel
was the strongest argument which he could adduce in
favour of the motion which be had tosubmit to the house.
The right hoe. gentleman would no doubt urge two objec-
' ties. to that motion -first, that the motion was not sub-
mitted to the house by a member of the government and
escoed, that he had not the means to enable him to assist
to the proposal. With regard to the first objection be bad
, to observe. that since the last war no government bad
' attempted to correct this evil, and that all great Warms
had sot proceeded from the government, but had base
forced on government by independent members and by pub-
lie opinion. But thegovernment had gone further in this very
matter, for when a French company undo an attempt to eaa-
!intim people of this country to insure their property without
payment of the duty, the paternal government interfered
and behind parliament to peas the 19th and 20th Vic., by
which those rash pergolas who dared to protect their pro.
party from fire were subject to film and imprisonment. With
regard to the objection that there was no surplus to enable
the government to get rid of this duty, he begged to my
that there had been a surplus over and over agnio since this
duty was imposed, and he maintained that no persons had •
greater claim to the coesidmatioa of governs' ent than those
perennawho showed • dare to protect their property against
occident. If this duty was to be treated is a tax upon pro-
perty, let it be drat with in that light, and he should be
content ; but if a tax epos property, it should be
levied equitably, and the property ix collector should
not peas by the shop of the nun whose house was unin-
sured, whilst he called at that of the man whose house
was insured. The fact wee that the duty was dishonest and
unjust; and he trusted the right hon. gentleman the
Chancellor of the Exchequer would show the country that
he regarded the power with which he wee entrusted as a
trust to be exercised for the benefit of his fellow country.
sens. (Haw. hear.)
Hr. HADFIELD seconded the motion.
Hr. NORRIS resisted the present proposal.
Alderman SIDNEY supported the motion, contending
that every reduction of duty which had hitherto been made
bed recouped the Exchequer through the immense inemase
of trade which it had crmted. The revenue would not lose
OM sixpence by acceding to the proposition of the hon. mem-
ber. It might be a question whether the concession should
be made this year—Omar, hoary—het surely they might
mrsit the bon. member to bring in his bill.
The CHANCELLOR of the ZeXCHEQUERsaid that this
was ha fact $ proposition to take away 900,000 f. a year from
the public roman*. but which it was promised would be
replaced by the increased insurance which would follow the
Mania' of the duty ; but the computation was founded
en mod illusory Liu. In certain states of the revenue it
might, and indeed would, be just to consider a reduction of
this duty, but the moment was now unfitting, and on that
paned he must object to the proposition.

You do not know whether you told your nephew sash a
thing as that? Why, Yr. Davis, recollect yourself, and
I will repeat the question. Did you not tell him to look
sharp and get his wheat—in so many words ?--I do not
know whether I did or not. (Incredulous laughter.)

the bankrupt. Did you see the bankrupt alone on the
10th, after he had signed the declaration of insolvency !—I
am not aware whether I did. Ido sot recollect the bank.
rupt asking me what he was to do. I will not swear that he
did not ask me that.
Do you recollect answering him by saying. "Send all the
wheat you can up to me r—l do not believe I ever said
such a thing.
Will you swear you did not ?—(After thequestion had
been premed several times)—l will not swear, but I firmly
believe I did not. Kelsey told me, I think, u• Friday, kith
November, that he had got his wheat, and I made Bassett
bankrupt on the 17th. I did not tell Mr. Lloyd, my soli-
citor, before be Hied the petition, about Kelsey having re-
ceived that wheat.

EXTRADITION or CRIVINALR.—Some papers Pat

give the laws of the German States with regard to mutual
extradition. Br a resolution pined Aeg. IR, 1R46, the
confederated States of Gennany mutually engage to de-
liver up any one convicted of any attempt hostile to the

ma f sty of another confederated stet*, or of a oonspircy with
• view to such attempt, or of favouring such ; provided
that the individual is not a subject of the state applied to
for extradition. By a later resolution„ reseed January 24,
11554, the engagement is extended to persons condemned or
seemed by a tribunal of the offended state (or against
whom a sentence of affect has been there pronounced) of
" sayerisemer transgressions" not being frauds in taxation
or tresegreseines against police or financial regulations, it
being nederstood that the offence being likewise recognise]

of any kind over say other creditor. There is not the

between me and the bankrupt blamed on the principle of

Mr. Pace, one of the trade assignees to the bankrupt's

that the bankrupt bad induced him to lend 6001. byskowing
him books which represented that the bankrupt was making

the bankrupt a shilling in your life?
