Two Bathers Drowned at Blackpool.

On Tuesday an inquest was held at Marton, near
Blackpool, on the body of a man, named Edward
Dean. It appeared that the deceased, who was 21
years of age, was a bookkeeper it, Manchester, and
that last Saturday he went to Blackpool. On Sun-
day he, along with two or three other young gen-
tlemen, proceeded on the shore to Bispham, for the
purpose of bathing. They stripped, went into the
water, and in a few minutes the parties, with the
exception of the deceased, came out. They left
him in water not more than two Let deep. When
they had dressed he commenced screaming,
and eventually tell down into the water. They
did not go to him because, ES they alleged,
they " had their clothes on." Two or three
of the witnesses deposed that there would
nave been no difficulty in rescuing the deceased ;
for some reason, however, this was not done, and
the deceased was ultimately allowed to drown. His
body was recovered soon afterwards. One of the
:witnesses—Police-sergeant Yorrison—said that
shortly after the accident he met a young man,
whom he did not know, who told him that a
gentleman had been drowned (he meant the de•
ceased) ; that whilst on the hills near the shore he
heard screams, and thee saw the deceased fall into
the water; that he then ran to the edge of the
water, but did not go to the deceased, because he
had " lost his nerve and was frightened, and
would have dirtied his trousers if be had done
so." Afterwards he (witness) told him that he
should want him to give evidence at the inquest
on Monday or Tuesday. The man promisee: to
attend ; but be had ascertained that he left Black-
pool on Sunday. He did not know the name of the
man, nor the place he came from.—The Jury re-

turned a verdict of found drowned.—On the same
day, an inquest a as held at Blackpool, on the body
of a man, named Reuben Harrison, who resided at
Burnley. The deceased, who was a confectioner,
went to Blackpool last Saturday. On Monday he
batbed above the pier, and whilst in the water he
appeared to swim out a little. He then swam into
deep water, but soon afterwards sank, and was
drowned. No one was with him, and it would have
oeen impossible, under the circumstances, for any
one to have saved him. The Jury returned a verdict
of accidentally drowned.

THAMES,

DRUNK AND MAD.—Cornelius Leary, an elderly Irish-
man, was brought before Mr Paget charged with being
drunk and disorderly.
Joseph Halliday, police constable No. 329 K, said that
yesterday afternoon, at half-past five o'clock, the prisoner,
was swearing, hallooing, and raving in the Mile-end-road,
near the turnpike gate, The prisoner said he had been in
the army,and had killed a great many men in his time, ana
intended to kill a few more. The prisoner challenged e
great many persons to fight, and they only laughed at him.
The prisoner then challenged all the cabmen on the cab
rank and the attendant waterman to fight, and behaved so
outrageously that he was obliged to take him into custody.
William Frederick Girling. a hackney carriage attendant,
said the prisoner attempted to pull the wheels off the cabe
on the rank, and made a dash with his body against flit-
Mile-end tollhouse, which withstood the shock. The pri-
soner then intertered with the horses on the cab rank,
pied his coat and hat off, and challenged him to fight.
Tee prisoner at last went into the middle of the road and
shouted, and was taken into custody.
Inspector Griffiu; of the K division, said the prisoner was
a pensioner, and had been a hackney carriage attendant,
but he was dismissed for drunkenness, and was a very in.
temperate man. The prisoner was in the Mile-End-road
for several hours yesterday and made a great disturbance.
Mr Paget fined the prisoner 108, and in default 7 days
imprisonment.

GARIBALDI ON THE AMERICAN WAR,—In
letter to the editor of La Nation Suisse, Garibaldi says :--
" I desire to add my name to the 4,000 citizens of Geneva
who have addressed the United 6tates in favour of themain-
tenance of the constitution and the abolition of slavery, and
I hope in so doing to obtain the approbation of the Liberal
press, and of all my fellow citizens. Glory to Switzerland
The old home of liberty deserves to stand in the vanguard
of human emancipation. From a fatality now weighing on
nations, we see great peoples grow less, and even disappear
before the lying flattery of despotism, and the champions
of freedom become the police of tyranny. Well, let Swit-
zerland take the lead till nations repent. Tyrants pas'
away ; nations are immortal. What avails a minority?
We shall conouer by the aid of our old traditions ; and we
shall again eee tyranny melt before the popular pbula"
as snow before the sun. We shall conquer because we
have right, justice, and brotherhood on our side. Let me
now call the attention of Switzerland to a great fact.
The American republics present to the world the P p!o-
-tad() of the connection of the peoples. An aggression
against the Peruvian territcry, conipletsd by the Spanish
Bourbons, has raised a cry of shame and vengeance from
all her sister nations. If the elder sister of republics wil
send one word of comfort to her suffering sister, it wouldl
be a striking contrast to the shameful leaguer of tyrants
against liberty, which we now see in Europe. Mind this—
Poland swamped by Russia amid the apathy of all is the
first step to a return to the barbarism of the middle ages.
If the partition disgraced the 18th, the destruction of PO
land is a lasting blot on the 19th century. Alas! our my
lisati,,n as yet is but false?'

The Stranding

►f the Steamship Cossae k,

On Wednesday t tit ,ruing the inquiry into the
cause of the stranding of the screw steamer Cossack,
belonging to Messrs. Bailey and Leetham, was re-
sumed at the police-, 2curt, Hull, before the stipen•
diary magistrate, Mr T. H. Travis, and Capt. Harris
and Captain Baker.. The captain's statement was
handed in by Mr Summers, but it differed in no
way from the def vice made by Mr Summers on
Tuesday, and cor Gained no facts which were not
brought out in evidence. Testimonials from Messrs
'l'orr, High-street, and Mr Wilkey were put in.
Tne Court then z e:tiveted the following jivagment
In this case I Lave had the very valuable ssaist-
sacs of Ciptair a 'Harris and Thlur, and we have
considered the -win ile of the evidence that has been
given very carefully, and also we have given due at-
tention to the statement made by the c.ptain. The
latter I think it right to dispo,e of first, and I do so
in a single word.. It is by simply saying that he
puts his defence on three grounds—tint the com-
passes were defective; that there was a strong cur-
rent; and that 'the list of the ship also, to sumo
extent, tended to produce the disaster which oc-
curred. We are not satisfied in the slightest degree
that any one of these grounds is supported by any
evidence whatever. Now, the points that we have
looked at chiefly are these—looking at the very
dangerous position when off Kulleu iti,which the
ship was placed—dangerous, inasmuch as it was a
difficult coast to navigate, whether th© captain
really used those ordinary precautions which might
be naturally expected from persons in his situation.
We have been driven to the conclusion that he did
not do so, for, with the exception of a look out,
which was of very little use when there was such a
haze on, no other precaution seems to have been
adopted at all. Nu bearings Were taken ; no lead
judgment afforded by the
ce
was cast; and, in short, ho
appears to have relied
upon the
eyethevearsytionhsuisffidcitsetnan from land and his positt
tion altogether. Under these circumstances, though
we have given due credit for the judicious course
adopted after the accident happened, and we also
give due weight to the testimonials as to his former
character, yet we feel we are bound to say that
Captain Ford has been guilty of a default, and for
that I adjudge his certificate be suspended for six
months from this day."

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CRUELLY FLOGGING A HORSE.—Richard Roberts, a
draymbu in the employ of Messrs. Huggins, brewers, of
Broad street, Golden-square, was charged before Mr Knox
with unmercifully and cruelly flogging a horse.
Mr Praetor, hairdresser, 65, Haymarket, saw the prisoner
driving two horses attached to a heavily laden dray in the
Haymarket. The prisoner set to flogging thr leading horse
with great and uncalled for severity, and Mr Praetor, con-
sidering the prisoner's conduct very brutal, went to the
office of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, Pall Mall, and saw Mr Colam, the secretary, who
sent two of the officers to the Haymarket, when they found
the horse covered with weals, in a very distressed state
sweating to such an extent that water was dr'pping on the
stones. The prisoner was taken into custody.
Hasemer, one of the society's officers, said the horse was
not in a fit condition to do any kind of work, it being ill.
On calling the prisoner's attention to the horse, he sa d he
was obliged to take it out.

The prisoner called two witnesses, who said the horse
was not severely flogged, and the prisoner said that if the
horse was examined no weals would he found on it,

Mr Knox said, as fur there being no weals left on the
horse, he well knew what a sponge and warm water could
do in the way of getting rid of them. He believed the evi
deuce of Mr Praetor and the officers, and Should fine the
prisoner 20e or 14 days.

UNPROVOKED ASSAULT BY A CAPTAIN'S SERVANT.--
Joseph Stannard, a tall powerfully-built young man, a
Private in the Scots Fusiliers, acting as servant to a captain
residing at 54, Curzon-street, was charged before Mr Knox
with assaulting Joseph Burrell, 124 C.

Burrell said that about 2 o'clock that morning he was
trying the doors in Curzon-street, and when he came to Nu.
51 he found a key in the lock. He was about to ring the
bell, when the prisoner walked up to him, and, making
use of an oath, knocked him down, bruising his face and
hurting his hand very much. A. gentleman came up to the
house at the time, whom the prisoner said was Captain
Stacey, his master, and he intormed the gentleman why he
was taking his servant into custody.
Mr Knox said he had no reason to doubt the constable
was harmlessly doing his duty when the prisoner knocked
him down.

The prisoner said the constable must have seen him
staiding near the door at the time the key was in it.
The constable said the prisoner was half way down the
street talking to a female.
The prisoner said he was in the Scots Fusilier Guards,
and wanted to get back to his regiment.
Mr Knox fined h•m 40s, or 14 days in default.
