Thomas Mayho, Esq., M.D.,

deposed that
he made his first and only visit to the un-
fortunate lady on the 30th of April last, and remained
with her about three-quarters of an hour; found her in
a state osymptoms of f perfect imbecility, with '
paralysis,
and quite incapable of understanding any kind of q
Dr.ues-
tions or answering them.
Mayho stated,in answer to a juror, the case was
so clear and decided that he did not think another visit
necessary or he would have made it.
Catherine Frydy deposed, she had been attendant to
Miss Hughes about 8 years; first joined her April 3,
1844, at Madame Pochis', near Paris, and found her
unable to dress or undress herself, incapable of even
using a pocket handkerchief, could not cut her food or
feed herself properly; had no knowledge of money or
of letters, or writing, or books; her only amusement
sometimes to play with coins, but without any idea of
their being of the least value. She had been with her
night and day, up to the present time, and she remained
without variation in the same state of mind and action.
By a juror—Her health bad been good; had only two
medical visits in France.
By another juror—She did not know persons.
Maria Henty, housemaid to Madame Pochis, deposed
she had known Miss Hughes three years; saw her first
at Madame Pochis', had been with her every day since,
and had always found her in the same insensible and
imbecile state as exhibited this day. Had been waiting
maid since the 3 d of April.
The jury immediately returned a verdict, dating her
unsoundness of mind from April, 1844.

THE " DIE-HANDS."
On Monday, the 17th instant, the 57th Regiment,
stationed at Kilkenny, gave a grand dinner to Major
General M'Donald, the staff of the district, and
several of their friends, to commemorate the anni-
versary of the battle of Albuera, in which sanguinary
action this gallant regiment bore a distinguished part,
and acquired the appellation of the "Die-Bards,"
which they have retained ever since. The dinner and
wines were of the very best description, and the rich
mess-plate of the corps was displayed to great ad.
vantage. A portion of the old colours carried on the
6th of May, 1811, and which had waved triumphantly
before the embattled hosts of France, were hung up
opposite
the banners now used in the regiment, and
reminded the guests of "Auld lang syne. '
After "The Health of her Majesty the Queen"
had been drank with all the honours,

Major SHADFORTH, the senior officer present, gave
" The Memory of those who had fallen at Albuera ;"
drank, of course, in silence.
The MAJOR the❑ proposed " The health of Lieu-
tenant-General Sir Edward Blskeney and the sur-
vivors of Albuera," coupling with these the names of
Major-General M'Donald, C. 8., and Colonel Browne,
Commissioner of Police, the only two persons at table
who were present at Albuera, and who rat at his right
and h ft hand.

Major-General M'DONALD returned thanks in an
eloquent and soldierlike manner. He said that al-
though he and his friend Colonel Browne were the
only Albuera men present, he saw several officers
whose fathers had s-rved in that glorious action,
in particular Major Shadforth, whose father had lost
a leg in the 57i.h there, and Captain Inglis, son of
, the late Sir William Inglis, K.C.8., who was lieute-
nant-colonel commanding the 57th in this gallantly
fought battle. He added that when the regiment
had sustained a loss of two-thirds of its numbers,
the lieutenant-colonel called out in a loud voice,
Beresford in h.w
" Close your ranks, 57th—die bard!" which ex-
pression was the origin of the name by which the
corps is still called. Major-General M'Donald also
quoted the very flatteringterms used by Marshal
and proposed " The health

The toast was most warmly responded to.
The PRESIDENT (Major Shadfortb), after returning
thanks for Lord Harding* and the 57th, proposed the
toast of " The Fusilier Brigade, and their friend and
guest, Colonel Browne, who served is the Royal
Welsh in this great action." He commented in warm
terms upon the noble conduct of the Fusilier brigade,
which had contributed so largely to the victory, and
is so beautifully described by Napier in his " History
of the Peninsular War."

Colonel BROWNE returned thanks in suitable terms,
and said he had come from Dublin on purpose to be
present on so interesting an occasion, and would have
gone ten times the distance to meet the old "Die-
hards."

Other toasts were given, and the party did not
break up until long after the midnight hour, having
past a most convivial evening, which will long be re-
membered by those who partook of the festivity.
The fine band of the 57th contributed greatly to
the enjoyment of the evening.

COMMAND OF TIM CHANNEL FLEET
PORTSMOUTH, MAY 22.—Rear-Admiral of the Blue
Armar Lowry Corry, is appointed to command the above
force. He hoisted his flag at the mizen of her Majesty's
ship Prince Regent, 90, at Spithead, this afternoon, at
three o'clock, when the Prince Regent saluted the Port-
Admiral commanding in chief with seventeen guns,
which the port flag-ship Victory acknowledged with
thirteen. Rear-Admiral Corry entered the navy the Ist
of August, 180.5, as first-class volunteer, on board the
Diadem, 64, and after assisting in the operations against
the Cape of Good Hope and Buenos Ayres, returned to
England in May, 1807, as midshipman of the Sampson,
64. He then joined the Leander, assisted at the bombard-
ment of Copenhagen, and was afterwards wrecked near
the entrance of Milford Haven, in January, 1808. From

Tay, 24. Having been promoted to the rank of com-
mander 13th June, 1815, and invested 14th October,

next sailed for the East Indies, where he became
(23d July, 1821) flag captain, in the Leander, 60, to
Sir llinry Blackwood ; in February, 1822, he invalided
home, in the Ssmaratig, 28. Assuming command (4th
April, 1835) of the lisrhem, 50, Captain Corry eon-
' vo)ed the Earl of Durham to Constantinople, and chile
stationed in charge of a Nundron on the coast of Spain,
received the thanks of the Queen, her Ministers, asd the
captains general of the various provinces, for his
exertions in landing with the various ships' companies
under his orders, and preserving to her Majesty the
towns of Barcelona and Valencia. The Barbara being

The long pewter counter is common to all. A counter
perorated in elaborately-pricked patterns, like a convi-
vial shroud, apparently for ornaraeut, but really for the
purpose of allowing the drainings, overflowings, and
outspillings of the gin-glasses to drop through, which,
being collected with sundry washings, and a dash,
perhaps,perhaps
of fresh material, is, by the thrifty landlord, dispens,d to
his customers under the title of " all sorts." Your
