The Urgent, iron screw steam storeship, Commander
Phillips, was put out of the fitting basin, Sheerness, cn
Saturday, and has been found to realise every expectation
for her stowage of provisions and stores. She has berthed
racks for 1,500 stand of arms, and, if necessary, could for
short trips berth 2,000 troops. The covering of her boilers
is not yet completed. By the condensing apparatus with
which she is fitted she can, if necessary, supply her crew
and a large number of troops daily with fresh water con-
densed from her boilers. She will stow 500 tons of coals,
allowing 40 square feet to the ton. Her commander has
been indefatigable in his exertions and attention in her
fittings for the accommodation of troops of the line. She
has only eight horse stalls—those are on the upper deck
—to receive the horses of field officers. Her launches
are all to be fitted as armed launches, and are to receive
two carronades in each launch, if required.
The Calcutta, 84 guns, Capt. J. F. Stopford, has taken
all her lower deck gun carriages and guns, which were
landed at Sheerness, on board, and, after completing
stores of every description, ammunition, and munitions of
war, left yesterday, at 11 a.m., for Portsmouth, where
she will receive Admiralty orders as to her future move-
ments. Naples is said to be her destination. Some very
beautiful specimens of small fir spars, cut from the Island
of Nargen, were brought home in her. The French
cut down the fir trees at Nargen for bed baulks and plat-
forms for the mortars, which they landed on the rocks
opposite Sweaborg for bombarding that place. Most
of the baulks squared about a foot. The steam-vessels
Lizard and Fearless accompanied the Calcutta from
Sheerness.
The Siren, 16-gun sloop, at Sheerness, was under sail-
ing orders yesterday to proceed to Portsmouth.
The Marley Hill transport, No. 169, has gone down
to Greenhithe from Woolwich, and will be despatched
thence to-day for!Balaklava.
The intelligence from the seat of war has caused no
diminution in the despatch of munitions of war from
Woolwich, nor has it suspended in the slightest degree
the receipt of projectiles from the foundries, as vessels
arrive there in the same rapid succession as usual. An
ordnance sloop, being the third with the Arabia's cargo,
left Woolwich on Saturday with shot and 13-inch shell
to be shipped on board that vessel at Portsmouth.
The mortar-boat No. 9 has arrived at Woolwich. The
Avon paddle-wheel steamer, of 361 tons burden, and 160-
horse power, arrived also at Woolwich on Friday from
Plymouth, to convey machinery to the western yards.
The French Imperial steam-yacht Ariel, with some
of the attendants of Prince Napoleon on board, arrived
at Woolwich on Friday evening at 8.30 from the Nore.
The Widgeon steam-tug arrived at Woolwich from
Deptford, and has been taken into basin to have her en-
gines repaired.
First-Lieutenant Erman, Royal Marines, is ordered
for service in the Mediterranean. Lieut. Sims of the
same corps has received orders to hold himself in readi-
ness for service in the Black Sea, in the room of Lieut.
Johnstone, who remains at home by virtue of a doctor's
certificate.
The screw steam-transport Amity, No. 177, Captain
Hopper, arrived at Spithead from the East on Saturday
evening, from Malta. She passed, in lat. 46 30, long.
10 21 W., the British ship Courier, for Constantinople.;
at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, the 12th, Ushatit, east-by-south
40 miles, her Majesty's ship St. George, 120, on her way
to Lisbon. The Amity brought home 273 bales of warm
clothing to be cleansed, and Colonel Tilden's favourite
horse. The Arabia steam-transport, No. 95, is shipping
in Portsmouth harbour bombshells for the Crimea. She
took in upwards of 2,000 (13-inch)on Saturday. She will
also ship a quantity of the huts for troops of the number
completed by Mr. Luke ()unwell, the Government con-
tractor at Portsmouth, and which have been for some
time ready for shipment. The great sailing-transport
Saldanha, No. 209, Capt. Wild (Lieut. Hawkey, R.N..,
Admiralty agent), is being fitted in Portsmouth harbour
for the conveyance of troops to the East. The artificers
are employed upon her early and late, and are ordered
to work up to 12 o'clock on Tuesday night, as the troops
will embark on Wednesday next.
On Saturday the new iron screw-steamer Assistance,
recently launched from the building-yard of Mr. John
Laird, Liverpool, sailed from that port with upwards of
400 men and officers from various regiments and 130
horses. Among.the officers were—Ensigns W. James,
Shuttleworth, Fraser, and J. James, of the 42d Regi-
ment; Ensigns Bu'vois, Roberts, and Swainson, 71st ;
Ensigns Bedford, Ade,. ca, Walker, and Lord Louth,
97th ; Ensigns Surgison and Vidler, 93d—all for Malta.
There were also 6 officers, 150 men, and 4 horses of the
Royal Artillery ; Cept. Siborne, R.E. ; Lieut. E. D.
Malcolm, R.E. ; and Capt. Charles Barry, R.E., for the
Crimea; Major Green, 68th Regiment; Brevet-Major
Marinder, Ist Foot, for Malta ; and Capt. Swinton, 6th
Dragoons, one servant, and three horses for the Crimea.
The steamer Jura will sail for the Crimea for Liver-
pool about the 28th inst.
The North of Europe Steam Navigation Company's
ship Tonning, No. 65 of. the transport service, has ar-
rived at Lowestoft harbour to load huts for the Crimea.
She has already on board 100 tons of 13-inch shell, and
will proceed with all despatch. The Chanticleer screw-
steamer, Taylor, has also arrived at Newcastle, to take on
board huts and railway sleepers; of the latter there are
12,000 now awaiting shipment.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship
Ripon, Captain Cooper, transport, No. 25, sailed for
the Crimea, from Southampton, with 22 officers, 953
men, 2 horses, and 6 officers' servants, yesterday morn-
ing—viz. :—Captain A. G. Shawe, 34th Regiment ;
Captain W. Baker, 48th Regiment ; Lieut.-Colonel E.
A. F. H. Berkeley ; Captains W. Aitchison, R. Gipps,
W. W. Knollys, and Viscount Eunismore, Lieut. L.
Paynter, and 207 men of the Scots Fusilier Guards ;
Lieut.-Colonels Newdegate and Lord Dunkellin Mejor
Lord Bingham, Captains Reeve, Hon. W. Fielding, and
Lord E. Cecil, Lieut. Hon. W. Edwards, Surgeon itAtel-
ton, and 206 privates of the Ist Coldstream Guards ;
Lieut.-Coloncl A. Foley, Gcenadier Guards ; Lieut.-Col.
Hall, Licuts. Skinner Douglas. Brock, and Sexton, and
236 men and 2 horses of the 82d Regiment ; and 203 of
the Land Transport Corps under the command of Capte.
Shawe and Baker. It was not until Saturday morning
that the officials of the Peninsular and Oriental Com-
pany were aware of the arrival of all the troops on that
day. Immediately upon the receipt of the information
steam was got up, and, in consequence of the arrival of
the whole of the men without any delay, they were all
on board, and the vessel had hauled from alongside by 3
o'clock in the afternoon. The Ripon then steamed into
the river, where she brought up for the night, and sailed
for her destination yesterday morning. The men were
all in the best of spirits, and seemed mere to be under
the influence of a lengthened holiday for pleasure than
being about to undergo the many hardships of a cam-
p sign in the Crimea.
The General Screw Company's steam-ship Hydaspes,
Captain Baker, transport No. 87, will sail from South-
ampton this morning for Devonport, where she will em-
bark about 250 wee of the Land Transport Corps for
the Crimea. She is heavily laden with shells and huts
The First Lord of the Admiralty on Thursday after-
noon when the inspection of the Plymouth Royal Naval
Hospital was cmcluded went to the prisons at _Mildew,
where the Russians are confined, under charge of Lieu-
tenant Veitch, R.N., the Governor, who, with the medi-
cal officer and interpreters, escorted Sir Charles Wood
over the buildings. His lordship passed through the
lower and middle wards of the main prison and the
lower prisons, and took great interest in ascertaining
the different classes of prisoners under confinement, assd
pointed out several alterations to be made for the im-
provement of the prisons, the internal condition of which
is in a very satisfactory state.
The Lords of the Admiralty commenced their duties
on shore on Friday, by landing, at half-past 11, at the
new basin in the Devonport dockyard, where they were
received by a guard of honour of the 22d Regiment.
Whi'e Sir Charles Wood mustered and inspected the
artisans Admirals Berkeley and Richards held a levee
for naval officers in the office of the Admiral-superinten-
dent, whore the First Lord subsequently joined them.
They then went up Hamoaze, and inspected the seamen
in ordinary on board the Royal William, 120, Captain
Kingcome, and other ships in ordinary ; after which
they landed at and examined the gun-wharf, and in the
evening gave the official dinner at Moorshead's Royal
Hotel, Devonport. On Saturday morning their lords
ships, after inspecting the flag-ship Impregnable, 120,
Captain Wise, left Hamoaze in the Black Eagle, and on
entering the Sound brought up between the island and
the main. Sir Charles Wood, Admiral Berkeley, and
Admiral Richards landed at half-past 11, at the pontoon
of the Great Western Docks, accompanied by Port-
Admiral Sir William Parker, Admiral-Superintendent
Sir James Plumridge, Captain Kingcome, Mr. Thome

This enterprising gentleman has made his last ascent
of Mont Blanc—for the present. On Saterdav night,
the fact having been duly announced, the Egyptian
Hall was well filled, Mr. Albert Smith never failing to
accumulate a good array of fashionables, whether the
season be "on" or " off "—at its highest or at its lowest
point. The lecture, which was characterised by no fea-
ture of novelty, passed off with as keen a relish of enjoy-
ment as it did months and months ago ; nor was the
lecturer himself a whit less fresh and animated than
when first he told his tale of peril and adventure. No-
thing like the success which has awaited this particular
entertainment has been heard of in the history of public
sights, and it is one of the marvels of the day that it has
so long preserved the vigour of its interest, and evinced
no appreciable sign of exhaustion or decay.
At the close of the song apropos to Galignani's Mes-
senger Mr. Smith delivered the following valedictory
speech—with what applause need not be told :
" It is very difficult in an aldress of this kind to keep
quite clear of anything that may be construed into an ex-
pi ession of egotism or conceit—in fact, inflicting the
most terrible of all bores upon hearers —talking about
yourself. You will, I trust, acquit me of this vanity
presently, even after hearing the following extract :-
bought, by chance, at a book-stall the other day a vo-
lume of plays, amongst which was the libretto of one of
the celebrated Mathews' Entertainments.' It was
called the Mail Coach Adventures,' and in a memoir of
Mr. Mathews' that preceded it, I was amused by this
remark—' That one man should have it in his power to
please for 40 nights successively is almost incredible.
Still, it is no less strange than true !' Now, ladies and
gentlemen, I have told you the same story, in the same
room, up to this evening, 1155 times. I was never so
fortunate as to hear Mr. Mathews, but from what I have
heard of him, I should imagine I am no more to be com-
pared to him than Mr. Waverley Belleville, the light
comedian of the Theatre Royal Stoke Pogis, is to the
Charles Mathews of our own days. Let me endeavour
to suggest to you, then, how tl i I singular success—as
astonishing to myself as it is to everybody else—has
been obtained. I attribute it to two causes—firstly, to
studying your amusement, and, secondly, your comfort,
in a practical;straightforward manner. With respect to
your amusement, I endeavoured to preserve it from de-
generating into bore, by keeping it within moderate
limits, and fixing the time of commencement at an hour
possibly better suited to the habits of 1855 than of a
century ago. I put a clock before you that you might
be your own timekeepers, and the few minutes of inter-
val between the parts has been, I am sure I may say,
most punctually observed. I hope you will allow me to
say, in addition, so anxious was I for this regularity to
be observed, that during four years, under every circum-
stance of health, and spirits, and business, I have never
abridged the lecture of an important sentence, nor been
half a minute behind my time ; and, above al!, I endea-
voured to avoid, as much as possible, the cant of in-
struction.' You came here to be amused—not to he
instructed. If (Turin, that amusement you learned a
little, so much the better; but it was not forced upon
you. In fine, as Fielding observes in the preface to
Joseph Andrews

son Queen's Harbourmaster, and Flag-tieuts. Turton
and Dicken. They were received by Col. Harris, chair-
man of the company, Mr. Filder, secretary, Mr. White-
ford, solicitor, and Mr. Power, engineer, who conducted
thernacrossthe contractor's dam, round the new graving
dock and floating dock, and back to the pier. This visit was
occasioned by a communication from the directors, in-
viting the Government to become owners of a part, or
the whole, of this property. The land and docks cost
about 250,0001., and an additional 50,000/. is now re-
quired from the shareholders to complete them. The
outer, or tidal basin, covers an area of 30 acres, and the
floating dock which abuts on the Royal Marine Blrracks,
13 acres. The position taken by the directors is that by
possession of the establishment, the whole western side
of which is bounded by Government land, great advan.
tagos would accrue to the Government. A short tram-
road would communicate expeditiously with that import-
ant establishment, the Royal William Victualling-yard,
and ships of war, besides having a dock and pier no :.sr
the Sound, could with great facility take in provisions,
water, and coal in any weather alongside a wharf which
has 30 feet at low water, whereas at the Victualling-ya,:-d
there are only 7 or 8 feet ; stores have in consequence
to be stowed in lighters, conveyed into the Sound, net
removed a second time when alongside the ships. War
steamers get their fuel now from hulks in Hamoazo and
the Sound by a mode much more laborious and expen-
sive than from a wharf, especially during. the prevalence
of strong winds, and all classes of vessels requiring dock
accommodation would be frequently saved the difficult
navigation round. Devil's Point and through Tiarnoaze.
After perambulating these works and conferring with
the officials, their lordships re-embarked on board the
Black Eagle, and went into the Sound, where they in-
spected the Implacable, 72, Capt. Arthur Lowe, and the
apprer.tiees' brig Nautilus, 6, Lieut. Dolling. They wire
then conducted over the Breakwater by Capt. Walker,
R.N., engineer of works, and, after a close inspection,
joined the yacht and left Plyrnotith for Portsmouth.
At a court-martial held en Thursday last on board the
Impregnable, 120, Rear-Admiral Pluturidge, president,
sentence of dismissal from the service was passed en
Lieut. E. W. Bridge, for. being found guilty of drunken-
ness when on duty on board the steam-vessel 8100..-
bound. Lieutenant G. B. Williams, of the Royal
William, has been appointed to the command of the I
Roodhound.

" Nay, I will appeal to common observation, whether
; the same companies are not found more full of good
humour and benevolence, after they have been sweetened
: for two or three hours with entertainments of this kind,
than when soured by a tragedy or a dull lecture.' •
"As regards your comfort, permit me to repeat what
I toll you last season. There is a larger establishment
than this, where the same things are said over and over
again every session ; and sometimes, if fght don't carry
the point, perseverance The 'black mail,' as. the
Examiner rightly termed it, levied on the public after
they bad paid their entrance money, in the shape of
every mean and inevitable imposition that can be
managed at our plaoes of public entertainment, is a dis-
grace and a shame. I was in hopes that the theatres,
especially, would have taken a hint from what I said last
year on this point ; but I have been disappointed. FrOm
the first I determined upon abolishing everything like
fees to attendants. Had I detected one taking anything
from anybody he would have been immediately dismissed.
I consider, at a place of public entertainment, you are no
more called upon to give anything to the person whose
business it is to show you to the best availabie seat than
you have to the servant who gives you a chair when you
call upon a friend. I then thought that offering the
programmes might be an excuse for receiving 6d. now
and then ; so, to shield you from this chance, I directed
that the programmes should be placed upon the seats,
so that you might take them up yourselves—as many as
you wished for. That this was for your advantage you
will see, when I find that since the entertainment com-
menced nearly 400,000 persons have attended it. Had
one-half of these taken bills at a penny each, the profits
would have been above 8001. I next set my faee
entirely against the extortion—l can give it no milder
name—of charging a shilling extra for a place taken
beforehand. So much do I hold a contrary opinion
that, before this entertainment commenced, I bad some
thoughts of making the price of places taken in advance
6d. less than those paid for at the doors, as one occa-
sionally has a book cheaper by subscribing to it than
buying it at a bookseller's ; because a great deal of
trouble could be saved, and a room more conveniently
arranged for the comfort of an audience, when it was
known how many were expected. The box book-keeper
was equally your servant as mine, in common with all
the other attendants—paid a salary, by me, to be here
for your own especial accommodation. I hope to find

with all the splendour of the Palace of Industry. nothing
is equal to the exhibition Brown is making of himself
in that capital, and I shall especially watch him. In
the pictorial departure I shall as usual have the advan-
tage of the co-operation of my friend, Mr: William Be-
verly. And now, anticipating the pleasure of meeting
you here again before Christmas, and wishing you dur-

DEATH FROSI STABBING, AND VERDICT OF WILFUL
MIIRDER.—A few days ags we described a case of stai.)-
hing, in which a man named William 'Bell,. of Gorton,
Lancashire, was killed. About ten in the morning of
the let inst. Bell was leaving the Waggon and Horses
public-house, when he wa attracted by a crowd of Irish-
men, one of whom had declared he would stab the first
Englishman that came up. A boy named .Artingstall,
who had worked at Gorton mill, with two brothers
named Heeley, were present, and stated that he saw one
of them stab Bell repeatedly. Bell was assisted to his
home, and died next day from internal limmorrhago,
caused by deep stabs. The adjourned inque,t was held
on Friday, when no other witness than the boy could
sneak to the identity of the Heeley's as using violence to
the deceased, but several witnesses had seen a number
of Irishmen who appeared anxious to provoke a quarrel,
amongst whom were persons resembling the Heeleys.
One witness saw the man who threatened to stab any
Engiu.thrnanwniitletfaruklteimleuamrdlidelrr from

Witliaot Lee was also brought up for judgment. He
had pleaded guilty of stealing a pocket-book, containing.
1151. in notes, from the pocket of a gentleman in Ox-
ford-street, and it was represented that he was a man of
means and respectability, and was formerly a merchant
at New Orleans. Several witnesses were called, who
gave him a high character ; the address they gave for
him proved to be false, and no real account could be
gleaned of him. After he was remanded, two men went
to the address the witnesses bad given as the prisoner's,
and asked the person who lived there, to say it was Mr.
Lee's residence, and that he was a respectable man, if
any one called to inquire, as a Mr. Lee wes in trouble
for assaulting a policeman, and had given th-at address,
so that his friends should not know of the scrape he had
got into.

Mr. Bodkin said the inquiries which had been made
had a very unfavourable result, both as- regarded the
prisoner and his witnesses. They spoke so highly of a
person who had been picking pockets in Oiford-street,
that it struck him as very singular, and it proved that
they had attempted to foist falsehood upon the court,
and he bad little doubt that they were not unacquainted
with such transactions as had brought the prisoner to
that bar. He should have the circumstances placed in
the hands of the proper person to see if there would be
sufficient evidence to bring a charge of conspiring to
hinder the administration of justice home to those parties
who had given evidence in the prisoner's favour. The
sentence was that the prisoner be kept in penal servi-
tude fur six years.

The Court of Saone-et-Loire a few days ago tried a
garde-champetre of Igornay for perjury. He had, it was
proved, on the 27th January last, caught two men named
Gagnard and Jaoqueneard poaching with guns and dogs.
He was obliged to draw up a preces-verbal against them,
but when they were prosecuted, he, being desirous of see-
ing them escape punishment, swore that they had neither
dogs mar guns. This was subsequently ascertained to be
false. Declared guilty, but with extenuating circumstances;
the man was sentenced to a year's imprisonment. The
same court subsequently tried an elderly woman named
Lagneau for robbery, and three other women, her nieces,
for receiving the booty knowing it to be stolen. The prin-
cipal accused was servant to two old gentlemen of pro-
perty, M. Acdre and M. Francois Pignot, brothers, of
Roussillon. M. Andr6 Pignot had saved up a sum of
18,000f.in specie,'which he kept in a trunk in his bedroom.
On ceunting his treasure on the 21st Feb. last, be found
to his dismay that five bar, each containing 1,0001., had
disappeared. The box had not been broken open, so
that it was evident that the robbery had been committed
by some one who knew where the key of it was kept.
In a day or two the old gentlemen were told by a boy
in their service that just before the robbery was disco-
vered the woman Lagneau had announced to him that
there would soon be a great noise in the house, as her
masters bed been robbed of 5,0001., and she sent him
to tell her three nieces that they must be prepared to
have their houses searched. This naturally caused the
woman to be suspected, and when she perceived that she
was so she was greatly agitated. A search was made
in her room and in the houses of the three nieces, but
no trace of the money could be discovered. A quantity
of other objects, such as sheets, napkins, articles of
wearing apparel, bottles of wine, &c., which were recog-
nised as the property of the Messrs. Pignot, were, how-
ever, found there. The jury nevertheless acquitted the
three nieces ; the elder woman, being convicted; was
sent, need to six years' hard labour.
The court ef Assizes yesterday tried an elderly man,
named Bronzes, and his son, for highway robbery and
for men dauehter. It appeared from the evidence that
Prouzes, who lived at Montmartre, was on bad terms
with his landlord, a person named liver, and he was
the loser in some law pi-oceedings which took place be-
tween them. He accordingly became greatly irritated
against Hirer, and vowed vengeance. In the night of
the let May, as Hiver was passing along the outer bou-
levard, he was assailed by three men, who beat him with
great brutality, and robbed him of 30fr., but the dark-
ness of the night prevented him from recognising them.
Bronzes subsequently boasted to a neighbour, a little
hump backed man named Pereuegre, that ho and
his son were two of the men who had committed
the assault and robhery, but he would not say who
was the third.. Perenegre spoke of this to some
other persons, and the two Bronzes heard that he had
done so. On the 18th May, after treating him to drink,
they asked him to accompany them to new lodgings
which they had taken, but he declined. They thereupon
shut up his shop, and each taking him by an arm car-
ried him off to the fields. The poor humpback was too
weak to resist, and iu too much fear to cry out. When
they had arrived at some distance from the houses they
beat him about the head, and the elder man, taking him
in his arms, pressed his body with great violence. The
poor humpback crawled home as well as he could, and
took to his bed. He stated what had occurred, and
said that he felt that he had received internal injuries,
which would cause his death. Three days later the
poor fellow died. On examination of the body, it ap-
peared that one of his lungs had been dreadfully injured
by pressure. The jury declared the two prisoners guilty,
and the court sentenced the elder to hard labour for life,
the younger to ten years of the same punishment.
The Tribunal of Correctional Police yesterday tried
three men, named Vachon, Xavier Van de Castecle, and
Louis Van de Castecle, for swindling. In 1850, Vachon
and Xavier Van de Castecle, though without resources,
started a company, which they called Le Mincer,
for working gold mines in California, and for conveying
workmen to that country. They fixed the capital at
1,000,0001., divided into 100,000 f. shares, and all the
shares were taken by the public. In a few months it was
evident that their enterprise could not possibly succeed,
but they carried it on nevertheless, deceiving the share-
holders by false statements. By the statutes of the coal-
, pany they were bound to have a council of superintendence
to watch over the interests of the shareholders, and to re-
port to them on all the operations of the company ; but
this council they compos,ed entirely of their own creatures
—men without a farthing, and it made whatever state-
ments they wished. At length the unfortunate share-
holders, whose patience and credulity were really, extraor-
dinary, became convinced thatthey were scandalously de-
ceived, and they laid a complaint before the officers of
justice. From the investigation which was then made it
was ascertained, though the men had purposely allowed
their accounts to fall into the utmost confusion, that they
had received altogether 1,520,700 E ; and that of that
sum Xavier Van de Castecle, who had gone to Cali-,
fornia on pretence of acting for the company, had em-
bezzled 423,937 f., and Vachon 405,943 f. In their
frauds, Louis Van de Castecle had participated, and not
only so, but he cheated Vachen of 4,043 f. in a transac-
tion which they had jointly concocted for defrauding the
shareholders out of a further sum. The Tribunal sen-
tenced Vachon and )e.vier Van Castecle, the latter by
default, to three years' imprisonment and 50f. fine, and
Louis Van Castecle to a year's imprisonment and 25f.
fin-.

T ne Italians, named Martini, Garri, and Canale,
were yesterday tried by the Tribunal of Girrectionsl
Police for swii.dling. The two former, it appeared,
came from England on the 13th of July, and in the
steamer made the acquaintance of a young tra•lesman
of Rio Janeiro, named Sartory. Arrived in Paris they
visited him, and introduced him to Canale. After a
while the three men get him to play at cards with them,
and cheated him out of 800 fr. in money, his gold watch,
four gold chains, and -a diamond pin worth 600 fr.
Ile, however, immediately lodged a complaint,
and the three swindlers were arrested before they
had time to dispose of their booty. The tribunal sen-
tenced each of them to two years' imprisonment and 50f.
fine.

SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A PROFES-

SIONAL MAN.

-

In The Sun of Saturday we reported the destruction
by fire of the naphtha and creosote oil works of Messrs.
Booth and Co., of Wolverhampton, occasioning the dea'h
of three persons, and serious injuries to about seven
others. So soon, on Friday evening, as the fire was
sufficiently subdued search was made for the workman
who was known to be burnt upon the premises. He was
found in the shed through the shattered roof of which he
was seen vainly attempting to escape, but, being unable,
fell back into the fire. His body was a perfect black
cinder—the face and the feet entirely burnt away. The
corpse was removed to the Shakspeare Inn to await,
with those of the child and the woman, the coroner's
inquest. The husband of the latter and father of the
former was absent at work in a pit when the catastrophe
happened ; and upon his return home his grief at finding
himself a widower under such dreadful circumstance ,
childless, and all his property swept away, was ex-
tremely painful to witness. He is a young Irishman, of
about 23 years of age, a tailor, and formerly resided at
Shelton, in the Potteries. His wile was about the same
age, and they were well known to be very strongly at-
tached to each other.

Considerable feeling has lately been occasioned at
Berkeley by the institution of a prosecution against Mr.
John Sampson, surgeon, for uttering counterfeit Bank
of England notes, with intent to defraud several parties.
No fewer than four charges, three of uttering 51. notes,
and the other of uttering a 101. note, have been made
against the accused. Prolonged examinations were
taken before Mr. Purnell and Majer Weight, two jus-
tices of the peace acting for the Berkeley petty sessional
division, on Wednesday, and Wednesday se'nnight, and
the case has been postponed until Tuesday next.
In the first. case, Mr. Swan Webster, of the White
Hart inn, Berkeley, deposed that on the 231 ult., the
prisoner came to his house and asked him to change a
51. note ; he gave him the change, received what ap-
peared to be a Bank of England note for 51 , and locked
it up in a drawer where the only other paper money
were notes of the National Pr6vincial Bank. He thought
the note a good one, but, in consequence of certain
rumours which were afloat, he sent to get it cashed at
the bank at Darnley by Mr. W. P. Hudley, a miller,
who was informed by the bank clerks that the note was
counterfeit. On the day following that on which Web-
ster received the note back Sampson called on him, and
said that he was totally ignorant that the note was bad,
and offered to give the money for it and have it back I
again. The note was produced last Wednesday, with
several other forgeries, and a gentleman named Barn-
stead connected with the Bank of England proved that
it was a forgery. Two other similar charges were pre-
ferred. When taken to the station, Mr. Sampson pro-
duced his pocket book, and in it were found five coun-
terfeit bank notes.

The seven persons who were severely but not fatally
burnt continue in extreme pain, but are supposed to be
beyond danger. Other serious consequences, it is feared,
will arise in the cases of several women who are near to
the time of their confinement, and who were living so
close to the burning premises as to render the removal
of their furniture a prudent proceeding.
Messrs. Booth and Co,'s works were of comparatively
recent erection, but almost the only portion of them
that now remains is a tall chimney. The two
abutting houses, in which were the iwo other deceased
persons, are complete shells. Much property has been
destroyed by removal. At the commencement of the
confl,gration flames shot up high into the air, aed upon
attaining a certain altitude separated themselves from
the body of fire below, and descending like waterspouts
burnt up everything inflammable upon which they
alighted. In this way the linen of several families was
deF.ttoyed as it hung out to dry, and the four children
of the family of Kent Were thus temporarily blinded and
otherwise injured.

The defence set up by the prisoner is that he received
the notes from a person named Thomas Evans, connected
with the betting world, but no such person has yet been
found, although the note inspector from the Bank made
every inquiry for him at Birmingham, where it was
stated he residpd.

Throughout the town there is a universal feeling of
indignation that works for the manufacture of such com-
bustible materials as naptha and creosote oil should
have been erected so near to dwelling-houses. Ever
since their erection they have been most obnoxious to
the'neighbourhood, and frequent complaints had been
made to the magistrates ; and at certai❑ meetings of the
council the matter has been not untrequently referred
to. At length the necessary legal preliminary steps
had beeo given for obtaining a quarter sessions' inj tine-
tim for their closing. The application would have been
made this week.

If the fire was not occasioned by the deceased work-
man, a short distance from whose body his tobbacco-box
was found, it is probable that it originated in a cinder
or spark from the fire in the furnace falling into a cask
of naptha which stood close by, and into which the pro-
ducts of distillation from the boiler of tar above the fire
were conveyed by a coil of pipes. The ignition caused
these pipes to burst, for they were found shattered ; and
thus the fire reached the still. The heat increasing, eva-
poration would at once burst off the top, when the
flames would spread in a liquid mass throughout the
adjoining premises. The yard contained a quantity of
pitch, in a solid and liquid state, besides numerous casks
of naptha. Large quantities of the spirit, in casks, lay
outside, which, fortunately, were only scorched.

On Wednesday
.last Mr. Sampson said Evans bad
given his address as of the "Cross Keys, Cheapside,"
and protested his innocence of being aware that the
notes wero forged.—Bristol Mercury.

to:Prefestior 11,111oway, dated September 10;1853, that
she was afflicted fora number of years with severe pains
in the head and stomach, dizziness, weakness in the eyes,
and the other usual disagreeable accompaniments of a
disorganised system. • She tried every known remedy,
and had the best medical advice, but derived no benefit
whatever. At last she resolved to give Holloway's pills
a trial, and, after using them for a short time, she was
restored to perfect health, which she enjoys uninter-
ruptedly to the present time.—Sold by all druggist., and

SPANISH FINANCES.— A letter of the 10th says :
" The reorganisation of the moderado party continues
to be spoken of, but it encounters difficulties, owing to
the reluctance of Count de San Luis and his partisans
to effect a fusion with certain persons. Queen Christina
is said to be anxious that the party should take upon
itself the responsibility of the acts of the Government
previous to the revolution of July. Notwithstanding
the assertions in foreign newspapers, the greatest cordia-
lity prevails between Generals Espartero and O'Donnell.
The financial situation is improving, and a return in the
Gazette shows that 137,710,620 reels of the loan
of 230,000,000 have been voluntarily subscribed
(the real is worth five sous). Some provinces
have subscribed almost all that was required
from them ; those of Barcelona, Gerona, Leon,
Madrid, Seville, and Tarragona are in this category.
No amount was fixed for Biscay and Navarre, but the
former has subscribed 1,000,000 and the latter more than
2,000,000 reels. A Carlist band of nine men, which
appeared in the vicinity of the royal residence of San
Fernando a few days ago, was attacked by the civil
guard, and four of them were killed, three wounded, and
three escaped by jumping into the Tagus."
THE COMMISSARIAT, &C., IN THE CRIMEA.— The Mi-
nister for War has appointed Captain H. W. Gordon, un•
attached, to be Ordnance storekeeper to the army in the
Crimea. Acting Deputy Assistant Commissary-General
Slade is attached to the Hussar Brigade of the cavalry
division, vice Deputy Assistant Commissary-General
Sutherland, appoint,d to another duty. Medical boards
have been ordered to inquire into the state of health of
Temporary Commissariat Clerk, B. Courtney, and As-
sistant-Storekeeper Reynolds. A letter from Malta,
dated September 5, mentions that the Alps, steam-
transport, from London, arrived there on the 30th
of August, bring Deputy Commissary - General
Smith and family for Constantinople, Assistant
Commissary • General Archer, Messrs. Laveridge,
Lloyd, Mothersall, and Waldeck. The Adelaide steam-
transport left for ailaklava on the 30th, conveying
Deputy Assistant Commissaries Gem ral Waldron and
Pester, and 50 clerks for the Turkish contingent.—Civil
Service Gazette.
EXTRAORDINARY ACCIDENT TO AN OFFICER.—On Sun-
day week, just after the troops had left the chereh in
Templeinore barracks, one of the officers, Mr. Clarke, of
the 47th Regiment, was looking at a tine stag, which
has been kept in the square for some years, when the
animal quite suddenly bounded at him, and before be
could avoid him struck him to the ground with his
antlers, which were of great size. Mr. Clarke, who is
a powerful young man, endeavoured to turn the animal's
head and held him, but he had him pinned so firmly
to the ground it was impossible to do so. The struggle
was fearful, and might have ended disastrously, only
some officers ran up and succeeded, at great personal
risk to themselves, in extricating Mr. Clarke, who has
received a most severe jagged wound in the thigh, se-
vere contusion in the breast, and bruises. Colonel
Townsend immediately ordered the animal to be killed.
Much anxiety was manifested for Mr. Clarke, who is a
general favourite, not only in the large garrison of Tem-
plemore, but with all others why 'lave had the pleasure
of his qcquaintanca.

she could not survive many days. Upon the recommenda
tion of a friend, we tried Du Barry's Revalenta, Arabica,
which, to the astonishment of all, caused an immediate
change for the better in the symptoms. After the first few
meals she felt less miserable, and in six days the diarrhcea
and night sweats had left her. She gained strength gradu-
ally, and in two months time was perfectly well. This excel-
lent remedy deserves to be more generally known, and
I consider I am only discharging a most sacral
