EXPLOSION OF GUNPOWDER IN A
WRECK.

The principal and superintendent harbour-master
having received directions from the I.,)rd Mayor to blow
np flip wreck of the Resolution, lying at the bottom of
the Thames, in Northfleet Hope, that eflicer and his
men have be: en making small explosions, within the last
few days,in the wreck, and a preprArion for its c:nspi.te
destruction with gunpowder is appointed to take place
to-morrow (Friday) morning, at hall past ten o'clock.
The boats of the harbour-master aro daily surrounded
by wherries and skiffs, and the curiosity is very great
to see the ingenious system of diving, and the effect
of the galvanic battery in the explosion of the gun-
powder.
It has-been found necessary to publish placsrds, con-
taining the following notice to master, pilots, and others,
in charge of steam-vessels navigating up and down the
River t'bames:—

" The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor has given direc-
tions for the removal of two wrecks in Gravesend Reach;
and to prevent accidents and loss of life, persons in
charge of steam vessels are required to blacken the
speed to the lowest possible amount during the time of
pasjing the wrecks. The working hours will be notified
by the display of a large green fl.g, with the word
' wreck' is the centre.

" CHARLES ROWLAND,
" Principal and Superintendent Harbour-master,
Port of London."

The spectators of the interesting experiments to•
morrow will, it is expected, be very numerous. The
grand explosion will take place certainly before eleven
o'clock.

British Minister, whoever he may be, the sufferings
you have undergone. Point out to him the rashness
which has characterized the recent legislation, and
say, " We, the shipowners of England, whose prosperity
at a SIMS hss been contributary to, and co-existent with,
the national greatness of this realm—we have hod our
dearest interests too hastily meddled with, we have been
exposed, without preparation, and almost without notice,

the pressure of burdens too heavy for us to bear; we
implore you.to grant us a Parliamentary inquiry into
their nature and their remedy.—(Hear, hear.) We do
not deprecate the struggle, nay, we enter on it proudly
and trustfully, inspirit,d by the stirring memoriee of
the past, and buoyed up by the happiest anticipations
of the future; 'Whet men can do, we cheerfully and coral-

ander the eye of a Government which will not suff,r our
energies to be clogged with any unnecessary burden,
but which will with Jealous care secure to us the rtsts-

MARYLEBONE.

Henry Smith, shopman to a linendraper, at 44. Regent•
street, and Robert Denny Christmas, assistant at the
house of a lately deceased surgeon, Mr. Fairbrother, 68,
London-road, Southwark, were brought up on a warrant
by Whipp, the officer, and placed before Mr. Broughton,
on the serious charge of having administered a certain
noxious medicine to a young woman named Anne Obee,
with intent to procure abortion.
The investigation occupied upwards of two hours, and
excited considerable interest.

Proseoutrix, who had just left the Marylebone In-
firmary, and was still in a very weak condition, on being
sworn, said—l have known Smith nearly five years, and
intimacy has taken place between us, which led to my
being in the family-way. Christmas is a young surgeon.
While I was living in service at 3, Cambridge-street,
Paddington, Smith visited me, and frequently took me
to a house near Hanover-square. I had previously
been servant at his father's in Blandford-street,
Man-
chester-square, where improper familiarities took

between us. He one day asked me if I was in the bar

brought to me was to be taken in four doses. I took the
contents of one bottle and throw the other one away.
What I did take made me vomit directly, and I felt very
ill for some time afterwards. I was in good health
before.
Mr. BROUGHTON—When did you next see Smith?
Prosecutrix—On the Friday week Irdlowing, when I
told him I had taken the medicine. He then said that

situation, and take a lodging,

DEATH OF THE VENERABLE AND
BERNER& —We have this week to 'record the death of one of
the worthiest men that have adorned the county of Suffolk.
On Thursday morning last, at three o'clock, the venerable
thatc the in
lossthe
Archdeacon Berners was attacked by severe Witless, which
was terminated by death on Saturday, at fouro'
afternoon. It is no hollow compliment to say
of the deceased will be keenly felt by all whose privilege it
was to live near or under him. A numerous tenantry in
Woolverstone, Erwarton, and Harkstead will mourn his loss;
and the poor, to whom he was indeed a kind and indulgent
friend, will deplore his decease with unaffected sorrow. As
one illustration of his kindness to his labourers we may men-
tion, that none of them received less than ten shillings per
week, they lived rent free, had all the small wood they
needed, were frequently supplied with coals, and whenever
sickness invaded them, had only to apply to their benevolent
friend to be relieved as far as his aid could mitigate their
sufferings —lpswich Express.

SPAIN-

Spain is to be in future divided into seven maritime
districts. The first comprises the coast of Gerona,
Barcelona, and Tarragona, is
and commanded by
Captain Arcadio Calderon, who has under his orders
the steamer Lepanto, of 200-horse power, and eight
other ships of war, mounting 20 guns. The second
is formed of the Baleario Islands, and commanded by
Cr.ptain Frederico Santiago, who disposes of the
steamer Piles, of 150-horse power, four sailing vessels,
carrying seven guns, and several gun-boats. The
third extends along the coast of Castellon, Valencia,
and Alicant, and is commanded by Captain Jose
.Liudenes, who. has under his orders the steamer
Alerts, of 120-gorse power, and seven other vessels,
zn iirating 20 rdieces of artillery. The fourth comprises
the c•oast of Murcia and Almeria, and the naval force,
and r the direction of Captain Francisco Garcia
Quesada, consists of the steamer Santa Isabel, of 192-
horse priwer, and eight other vessels, carrying 16
The fifth is formed of the coast of Grenada,
141314" a, and Algesiras, and also commanded by
Captain Francisco Garcia Quesada, who disposes of
the steamer Vigilante, of 120-horse power, and eight
other vessels carrying 18 guns. The 6th con:1-
F 'ls the coast of Cadiz, Huelva, and the Canary
ti,.aAF, and is commanded by Captain Francisco
Grand&llana, who has under his orders the steamer
Volcano, of 200-horse power, and eight other vessels,
carrying 24 guns. The seventh, finally, includes the
coast of Gallicia and Biscay, and is commanded by
Captain Nicholas Chicharro, who has at his disposal
nine sailing vessels, mounting 36 guns. Those seven
maritime circumscriptions embrace 75 commanders
and superior officers, 90 officers, 302 marines, 3,183
seamen, and 75 engineers—in all 3,623 men. The
garrison of Madrid is composed of 12,000 men.

DEFENCE AGAINST INVASION.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sla,—Much is said about our defenceless state and the
danger we are in, from the ambition of that uprincipled
traitor, Louis Napoleon. It is rumoured that our army
is to be increased 25,000 men, and our militia called out.
Lot me suggest a substitute for the latter, by a plan
which I think will be successful—abate a great nuisance
(the game-laws)—and cost nothing to the State. Let a
licence for shooting game be given to every one who will
enrol himself to be trained for military service, and vo-
lunteer to serve against an invading force. The corps
might be dressed as gamekeepers usually are, and find
their own equipments. I have no doubt that tens of
thousands of able-bodied active young men would thus
form a military corps of Riflemen, who would give as good
an account of Frenchmen as of grouse or partridges.
Poaching would be at an end—the prisons would not be
filled with men whom the laws made criminals, and who
would deserve a cross of the Legion of Honour instead o
jail.—l remain yours, &c,

THE -IRON TRADE.
The prices in this trade are still declining, and it is
reported that considerable underselling has been resorted
to among the lesser manufacturers since the conclusion
of the quarterly meetings. This appears consequent
upon a falling off of orders in the nail and chain
trades bf the district, and other branches of hard-
ware generally, all which seem to have become ex-
ceedingly quiet. In Manchester, business, as may
be expected, is in a complete state of atrophy on ac-
count of the engineers' strike; and the same is the case
in that portion of the London trade which chiefly found
a consumption for Staffordshire make. For foreign
orders the demand continues brisk, and prices rule un-
altered. Indeed, at the present moment our principal
dependence is upon the export trade ; and while
the larger houses are finding fair employment,
at those works where the produce is confined to our
own country uses but little business is doing. An
effort is being made on the part of the manufacturers to
induce a reduction in the make of iron by refusing to
take their usual supplies of pigs, except upon lower
terms, well knowing that the prices at which they have
latterly been purchasing are already unremunerative.
This, it is thought, will compel several of those furnaces
least favourably situated to be put out of blast, and thus
reduce the aggregate amount of make. But how far the
matter will be proceeded with is a matter of speculation,
since it is a fact that at very few of the works uncon-
nected with blast furnaces is there more than a month's
stock of metal on hand, and at many not that quantity.
Statements have appeared, within the last few days, of
great expectations entertained by some fromt he finding
of ironstone in Northamptonshire, which, it is said, will
materially assist the Staffordshire ironmasters in com-
peting with the Welsh and other districts. At present
the nature and quality of the stone, :its contents of iron,
&c.; its fluxing and working, together with the cost of
raising' and transit, are too imperfectly known to form
any estimate of its value here.—Aris's Birmingham
