TILLS RATRIBUTIUff.

The Retribution steam:frigate, Captain Tatham,
steamed into Portsmouth harbour yesterday morning,
and ranged alongside the dockyard jetty at 11 o'clock
to disembark her wounded and invalid soldiery. Vicc-
Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, the Commander-in-
Chief, was present on the jetty when the ship was lashed
alongside. The military authorities were also promptly
on the alert, and Brigade-Major Dalgetty and Town-
Major Maitland ; also fatigue parties from the Rifle
Brigade and Hampshire Infantry Militia, commanded -
by Ensign J. P. C. Glyn of the former, and Major
Robbins and Lieutenant Valentine of the latter. Lieu-
tenant-Colonel Clinton, of the Rants Militia, was also
present, and assisted in directing the movements of the
fatigue parties. Nothing could exceed the attention
paid by these officers to the careful landing of those
who were so helpless as to require stretchers. The Ad.
miral Superintendent's Flag-Lieutenar Mr. Waddilove,
was present at the disembarkation, Bich commenced
immediately the vessel got moored. A number of vans
were at the spot, and received all tnose who were able
to be conveyed to their sick quarters by those means—
about forty in number. All were, out of the ship by a
quarter-past twelve o'clock, and the body of the deceased
John Thompson, of the 19th, was removed from the
ship in a shell, covered with the union jack. The
most urgent cases have been taken to the garrison
hospital, and the rest are berthed in the new auxiliary
hospital adjacent to the Milldam ; all are receive
ing the utmost attention of the medical staff. The
Retribution has come home with a temporary rudder, a
temporary mizenmast, and only her own foremast stand-
ing. When struck by the sea, in the awful gale of the
14th of November, at Balaklava, such was the violence
of the gale that one of her heavy upper deck guns was
sent 4` flying right aft and carrying everybody with it,"
but happily killing none. She was also struck by light-
ning, which shivered her .foretopsailyard ; she at the
same time carried away her rudder. She threw her
upper deck guns overboard to lighten her top-hamper,
and lost her mainmast at Sebastopol in the bombardment
of the 17th of October, when several of her beams were
at whichßat oeunnite,rve cal

deck, main deck, and into the engine-room, where it

ings of the places she has visited and the service she has
participated in. She went into Portsmouth harbour
with her figurehead dressed in a sailors white hat, with
numerous streamers of ribands, &c., and excited much
attention.

Jaw. 3.—ln the few lines I wrote on the let of this
month I was only able, in consequence of another alte-
ration of the mail, to inform you of the fact that the
French and English had made a second reconnaissance
of the enemy's position at Balaklava. I now hasten to
give you the details c f that movement, which was emi-
nently successful. The reconnaissance, or rather the
kind of attack, was made on the 30th of December. Two
days previous our out pickets had observed an unusual
bustle and confusion in the enemy's quarters, which ap-
peared to be occupied by a much smaller body of mon.
On the 28th a division of infantry, with a small body of
cavalry and artillery, in all about 10,000 strong, left the
Russian camp, and commenced their march fer the sum-
mit of the chain of hills near Mackenzie's Farm, where
they remained. Information of the fact was forwarded
to the allied generals, who I believe were already aware
of the intention of Liprandi to abandon kis position
on the Tehernaya and valley of the Inkernsan. On the
20th two more bodies of the enemy's force retired in the
same direction as the former. Each corps d'armee
remained upon the heights, one division near the ruins
of Inkermian, the second about two miles apart, near the
centre of the side, and the third two miles farther east,
clone to Mackenzie's Farm. A.recconnaissance of their po-
sition with that of the strength of tb °force remaining upc n
the Tchernaya was immediately determined on, and the
French cavalry at Kersoaese, with 12 guns, and the
Rifles, 79th Highlanders, and a regiment of Zouaves, at
Balaklava, received orders to hold themselves in readi-
ness to march at daybreak on the following day. The
Zouaves, and Highlanders turned out at six on
the 30th. The Zouaves advanced in the direction of the
village of Kamera. The Rifles and Highlanders crossed
the ravine in front of the position held by the Marines
on our extreme right, anti Occupied the steep headlands
beyond, which overlook the sea on one aide, and the
rear and right of the Russian camp upon the other. The
post was purely a defensive one, and only intended to
in case of their threatening our
wounteract the enemy

About nine o'clock the cavalry made their appear-

VALUE OF LAND IN TEE EASTERN DISTRICT OF LON-
nox.--Notwithstaading the war, it appears that there is
not the slightest indisposition on the part of members of
freehold land societies to invest their capital on estates
on which building operations are sure to be commenced.
The Old Ford estate, Bow, which is within the district
of the Tower Hamlets, was allotted yesterday, Jan. 24,
at the offices of the Conservative Land Society ; and
small plots, to the value of upwards of 6,0001., were
eagerly selected by members. The allotment of the
estate excited much interest. It is close to the Victoria
Park, and a new church is abort to be erected in its
immediate neighbourhood. On the sane day the society
offered another estate, situated at East Retford, North
Notts, which found equal favour in the eyes, not only of
local, but of distant shareholders.
GENaRAL Scaiw CIIIII'INT.—Another lengthened
discussion took place yesterday at an adjourned meet-
ing of this company. It was stated by the chairman
(Mr. J. If. Ellis), at the commencement of the pro-
ceedings, that whatever result might be arrived at,
he and the whole of hie colleagues had unani-
mously determined to resign office, and that they
must be regarded as only continuing to exercise
their functions to the 4th of April. The point then
brought under consideration was the accountant's
report on the general position of the undertaking. From
this doeument it appears that, while they admit the cor-
rectness of the figures in the company's books, they
differ with the deductions drawn by the directors. The
accountants think that there will be a loss of 30 per cent.
on the assets for which credit has been taken in relation
to the coals la stock. They also propose to allow a
large depreciation in the value of the company's feet,
after working for several years, and they thus produce a
result to the debit of profit and loss of 138,0001. for the
period ranging from 1848 to 1854. The deductions
made by the directors differ materially from those, and
purport to show a surplus of 77,0001. The report hav-
ing been read, a further adjournment Was sanctioned
until the 31st, to allow its ciroulation among the share-
holders previously to the adoption of any doinitin mu.

Yesterday week, at the Lambeth Police-court, a
letter-carrier named Skinner and his wife were charged
with being drunk and disderly, and creating a dis-
turbance. On the investigation of the charge the
testimony of the constable did not support it, and
it appeared to have originated in a mere squab-
ble with a cabman. The postman complained that
his wife had been insulted and assaulted in the most vio-
lent manner by -Pegram, the constable 161 L, and that
they were both locked up in a cold cell, on an inclement
night, and without the slightest prospect of getting bail.
His wife was kept away from her baby, who was suck-
hug, and he himself from Ms duties at the Post-office,
so that his situation, which was the only thing himself
and his family had to depend on, was seriously impe-
riled. Mi. Elliott feeling at the time that he could not
allow so gross a case to pass unpunished, directed the
matter to stand over, and that each party was to come
prepared with witnesses.

liegrarn 1(31 L appeared yesterday as the defendant,
and had Mr. Soloman as his legal adviser.
Skinner and his wife were each examined separately,
and at length, but the substance of their testimony was
briefly this. On the evening of Tuesday week they,
accompanied by three friends, went to the Victoria
Theatre, anti when the performincee were over at
a quarter to one o'clock, they went to a public-house
to have some refreshments, aid ultimately at a quar-
ter to three they agreed to engage a cab to take them
to their residence at Chelsea. Skinner left his wife and
friends at a pie shop in the Westminster-road, while
he wait to the cab stand in the Palace New-road to
hire a cab. He made terms with one of the drivers to
take his party for half-a-crown, and all having consented
to it they went round to get into the vehicle. Another
cabman told them that the man that had been engaged
had left the stand, but that he would undertake the job
for 3s. 6d. This latter aura their friends refused to pay,
and said they should walk home, and bade them good
night. They, the Skinners, having determined on having
a cab to themselves, and having bargained for one for
two shillings they were about to get into the vehicle
when the defendant calliag out to the cabman said, " If
I was you I would have ray money first," and the cab-
man said he should. Skinner then took two shillings
from his pocket and tendered them to the driver, when
the defendant again said, " I should not take them at
all," and the cabman refused to do so. Mrs. Skinner,
addressing the defendant, asked him if 2s. was not the
cabman's proper fare, and the reply was, "You go on,
ma'am." and gave her a violent push, which sent her
from the footway to the carriage-way. She remon-
i,trated with him upon his conduct, upon which he
partied her a second and a third time, until at length he
drove her quite across the road to the end of York-
road. On giving her the second push, Mrs. Skinner
said Pegrain accompanied that violence with a kick
of so severe a character that she still had the mark
and felt its effect 4. The injuries and the indignant
treatment she had received caused her to cry, and
her husband came to her and endeavoured to soothe
her as roach as he could. The husband said he
should go to the station-house to seek for redress,
tekcla Petrac4 told liil4 he Milt go there, and catching

It appears that arrnigements are now being made by
influential parties for carrying out this undertaking with
activity and vigour. The line is to commence at the
General Post-office, to cross Clerken well, and pass under
the New-road to the new station of the Great Western
Railway at Paddington, a distance of about 4,1, miles. In
its route it will communicate with the Great Western,
the London and North-Western, the Great Northern,
and also, by means of the North London lino, with the
Eastern Counties and South-Western Railways. It is
intended to connect these lines with the General Post-
ofice. The line is estimated to cost 1,200,0001., and
the gross traffic, at 3d. per passenger, to produce
230,2581. per annum. The working expenses are esti-
mated to amount to 35 per cent., or 80,5901., leaving a
profit of 149,6651., or nearly 12i per cent. on the esti-
mated outlay.

THE LATE FATAL CALAMITY IN ST. JAMES'S FAIR.—
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Bedford, coroner for West-
minster, held an inquest of nearly four hours' duration
at Westminster Hospital on the bodies of John Hutton,
aged 15, John Linton, 15, George Edwards, 15, and
James Brophey, 16, tke four unfortunate persons who
were drowned by the breaking of the ice on the orna-
mental water in St. James's Park on Saturday last,
some particulars of which appeared in our impression
of Monday. From the evidence of a great number of
witnesses it appeared that four boys were sliding, when
the ice broke, and all were immersed. One, how-
ever, got out of the water, and several persons
rushed to the rescue of the others, but in the noble
attempt Brophey lost his life. All the witnesses
agreed that if there had been any of the Royal Hu-
mane Society's men- or machinery on the spot at the
time the boys' lives might have been saved. It further
appeared, that only one man was on duty in St. James's
Park, by order of the society, when the occurrence took
place, and that there were no means of saving life at
hand ; also that, if the boys when got ost`i had been
taken to the tent, there was no fire or warm bath to
use for their recovery. No orders had been issued for
any of the Society's men to go on duty in the park that
day. The jury found a verdict that the deceased per-
sons died from "accidental drowning ;" but the foreman
added, that the jury could not separate without ex-
pressing in the strongest language an opinion that if
there had been more men or proper machinery at hand
the lives of the youths would have been saved, and also,
that if the public could not demand proper attention
from the Royal Humane Society the jury would memo-
rialise the Woods and Forests to close the parks.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Pills for the Cure of
Female Complaints.—Mr. P. E. Taylor informs Profes-
sor Holloway in a letter dated Sept. 16, 1854, that Mrs.
Sarah Catr, of Ellakes, was afflicted fora long time with
swellings in the stomach (which occurred at the turn of
life), giving strong indications of dropsy ; in fact, she
had been frequently told that dropsy was her complaint.
She was ultimately thrown on a bed of sickness, when
she commenced taking Holloway's pills. After taking
a few dozes she was completely cured, and now enjoys
most excellent health—better than ever she felt before.
