CORONER'S INQUESTS.

THE LATE FATAL AND MELANCHOLT STEAM-BOAT AB.
ciDENIT OFF Woomicm—Yesterday at twelve o'clock
C. J. Carttar, Esq., the Coroner, and a Jury assembled
for the third time at the Crown and Cushion Tavern.
Wato-gat,, Woolwich, and the investigation into the
circumstances attending the death of Muster Joseph Wm.
Malys, aued 13 years, the son of a gentleman belonging
to the Royal Arsenal, was resumed. The evidence
adauced on the two former days was so contradictory that
the Coroner decided upon hearing the testimony of as
many of the ladies as were sufficiently recovered to attend,
who were in the boat with the deceased when it was struck
by the Falcon Gravesend steamer.

-
Mr. Newbon, of Doctors'-commons, attended profes-
sionally on behalf of the Eagle Steam-packet Company,
to which the Falcon belongs, and the proceedings were
listened to with much interest by a crowded room.
After a lengthened investigation, the inquest room was
then cleared, arid the Jury having consulted for about
an hour, strangers were admitted, and a verdict of "
dental Death," with a deodand of 5/. upon the Falcon,
was recorded.

The investigation occupied nearly thirteen hours.
TILE LATE FATAL STEAM-BOAT ACCIDENT, NEAR
WATERLOO BRIDGE. —Last night an inquest was held at
the Savoy Palace, public house, Savoy-street, Strand, be-
fore Mr. Higgs, on the body of Henry John Hay, aged 18,
an apprentice in the New Bell's Weekly Messenger office,
who was unfortunately drowned by being run down by a
steam-boat. After the examinaton of two or three
witnesses, who stated how the unfortunate accident oc-
curred, the jury considered as there was a serious charge
against the Steam boat Company, and they had no agent
present, it would be better to adjourn the inquiry to a
future evening. Adjourned to Wednesday evening.

(PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE.
MONDAY, Auo. 19.—The Queen's Cup, as we expected,
was won by the Dolphin, but the Galatea was often too
near to be pleasant ; the run was a severe one with the two
large vessels ; the two smaller ones sailed admirably, par-
ticularly the Ariel, and took a good many of the deep ones
in by beating the Miranda. The vessels came in as follows:
H. m. se. H. m. so.
Dolphin 6 47 25 I Ariel
Galatea 6 59 5 I Miranda
There was a fine breeze nearly the whole time. The
Dolphin took the lead, passed the Nab first, indeed may be
said nearly to have maintained her position through the
race, though when bearing down to Yarmouth, things
looked queer, and some said the Galatea was a mile a-head
of her, if so, she soon recovered her loss, and proved herself
the best vessel. The day was very much against the plea-
sure folks, being showery ; in the evening instead of fire-
works we had water-works, and no mistake, for the rain
came down in torrents. A great deal of money changed
hands.
His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge landed in
the afternoon.
No yachts having entered for the two 50/. cups to have
been sailed for on Tuesday and Thursday, as we stated on
Friday, a match has been made fora 50/. cup by yachts
under 50 tons, to come off on Wednesday, and as seven are
eveexpectedthe Ball. to enter, we anticipate a good day's sport. In the

This day, at the dinner, Lord Yarborough takes the
chair. Lord Durham, and upwards of 70 other Noblemen
and Gentlemen arc expected. The Noble Commodore,
with his usual munificence, furnishes the tables with venison
and a superfluity of the finest fruit we have seen this season.
His Lordship sails for Gibraltar on Thursday. Lord Wil-
ton is expected to sail about the same time for Spain.
Jones's exhibition of fireworks, in consequence of the
rain on Saturday evening, was deferred till to-morrow,
Tuesday evening.

SIR J. M. DOYLE.

In answer to a question by Mr. DILLON
13110 WN E, as to the claims of Sir Jr.;nn Milley Doyle
on the Portuguese Government,
Lord PALMERSTON said the Portuguese Go-
vernment had not shown any disposition to do justice to
the claimants. Her Majesty's Government had been
very unwilling to have recourse to any other means
than those of persuasion to convince the Portuguese
Government of the propriety of these claims, but
undoubtedly if they should fail in obtaining
that which .was due, it would be for the Government to
consider what other means it might be necessary to
employ for that purpose.
Mr. D. BROWN wished to know if it was to be
understood that the Government would take other than
persuasive measures.
Lord PALMERSTON said it was hardly necessary
to answer the question more distinctly, than to lay
that if the Government should find that the Portuguese
Government should refuse to satisfy the just claims of
British subjects, every honourable man must see the
course which the Government of England was likely to
take.

FUNDING EXCHEQUER BILLS.
On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER, the House went into Committte onthis
Bill. The Right Hon. Gentleman said he wished to
explain to the House and the public, the exact conditions
which he proposed if this vote was carried into effect.
The comparison which he proposed to institute was be-
tween 1836 and. .the present year. In 1836 the amount
of bills constituting the. unfunded debt, and outstandlt,
24,043,000/. ; and in 1839 to 24 005 6501 -show-
ing a reduction of 4 469 000/ ' -of' that'
olnB3t7hethsetyh
of securities. During ' the ;rime time classtbe
Bills with respect to Irish public works
had been reduced by the sum of 122,000/. The reso-
lution which he now proposed would dispose of
4,000,000/. more, so that if this alteration was com-
pleted, comparing 1839 with 1836, the. reduction would
be about 9,000,000/. in the unftraded debt.—( Hear.)
Various gentlemen of great authority had called the
attention of the House and the public to the expe-
diency of reducing a portion of the unfunded debt, and
if he might without irregularity refer to another place
unquestionably very high authority had been given in
favour of that proposition. It had been asked why,
under these circumstances, had he not earlier brought
the subject forward, but ho would tell the House wby
it would not have been just or expedient to have done
so. The House was aware that it had been found
necessary to: ask a vote for 25 millions of Exchequer
bills instead of 24 miilions as last year, and a propo. ,
sition to fund a portion of the unfunded debt, under.
.would have given the
these circumstances,. L contraetfara
of
L \ a right to complain of wantinvolving
notice. Again 'there
' was a Bill lately passed very largo considers-
' ' 1 tions of a commercial and puhlic chars'cer—the Bill
for the reduction of Postages, it was supposed by
some that that Bill would eiect a large amount of the
public revenue, and was likely on that aceount to

VIENNA, JAN, 31. The'"---first news of the breaking up
of the French Cabinet caused a decline in our funds,
which may be ascribed to the reports of an interruption
of the general peace which were connected with it. It
appears to have been forgotten for a moment how little it
would agree with the interest of Louis Philippe if a
Movement Ministry should be formed, by which the state
of peace hitherto maintained should be endangered.
This decline is of little importance, and seems to have
been momentary, for it has now ceased, and the prices re-
main unchanged.
ROME, JAN. 20.—1 t has happened very unexpectedly
on the death of Prince Lieven, who was a Pro.
testant, that the body was conveyed to what is called
the Protestant Chapel of the Prussian Legation, with
public solemnity, and that a Protestant funeral ceremony
was there performed, to which the members of the diplo-
matic body were formally invited by the Prussian Ambas-
sador. This event might lead to the erroneous notion
that there is at Rome a chapel for the public exercise of
the Protestant religion, and even recognised, or at least
tolerated by the Government of his Holiness. N_Vo are
desired publicly to declare that the above event took place
without the knowledge, and contrary to all expsueFittaabtiloenreo.f

THE MARKETS--(THIS DAY•)

CORN.EXCIIANGE.
Last week's arrivals of English Grain and Flour were moderate
of Irish Oats considerable, and of Foreign Wheat large.
trade throughout the week was generally dull, without variation l!'t
prices. There has been a small fresh supply of English Wheat, bi
a good quantity of Barley, Beans, Pease, and Oats. The Wheat
trade for superfine English is la. per quarter dearer; for other
qualities last Monday's prices were slowly obtained. Foreign
Wheat having experienced some country demand, maintained it.
previous rates. Barley continues very dull, and has further de-
clined 2s. per quarter. New Beans, being chiefly tender, declin.'
Is. to 2s. per quarter. Oats met a very slack sale, and were full if•
per quarter cheaper than this day se'nnight. The Flour trade r*"
tained its heaviness, and ship parcels were offering for less Price'
to effect sales.

Q:UEEN'S BENCH, FEB. 9.

FLULKNER V. DU PART!.
Mr. KELLT an d Mr. WIDDTMAN appeared for the plaintiff. Sir
F. Pottoca. and Mr. Pottocx for the defendant.
The plaintiff is an artist, and the defendant a professor of Horace.
opathy and Anirn al Magnetism. The action was brought to recover
the sum of 81/. for money lent, against which,the defendant claimed
to have a set .off of 59/. It appeared that about the latter end of the
year 1a35 the plaintiff's son, Edwin, was placed under the care of
the defendant, and that he occasionally received shocks from an
electro.ma:n etic machine, and was also supplied with medicine. In
May, 1836, being in embarrassed circumstances, the defendant left
this country, and proceeded to Avignon, the plaintiff's son accompa-
nying hira. During the time the plaintiff was residing in France
the plaintifftrans mated him several sums of maney, and on his re-
turn advanced him other sums, until his claim amounted to 81/.
The parties, wlt.o hail been on the most intimate and friendly terms,
having differed„ a demand was made for the 814, and the defendant
then made out .a bill, amounting to nearly 60/., for his attendance,
ece., on the plat stiff's son.

The case ocC upiecl the Court a considerable time, but was entirely
destitute ofinb crest. After the Jury had consulted about an hour,
they returned i nto Court and pronounced for the plaintiff—Da-
mages, 224 6s.

the defendant a broker. On the Ist of May, 1837, she was 10/. in
arrear to her b ndlord, Mr. Calder, for rant, and a distress was put
into the house. Mr. Hudson agreed to take 41. and to return two
beds and severs :1 other articles, until the balance, and 1/. I Is. for
expenses shoul I be paid. On the 14th of September the whole
sum had been 'paid with the exception of 1 Is., and that was paid on
the3oth, and a:'so 17s. 6d,:which the defendant had charvd for ware-
house room. The plaintiff than demanded her goods, but the de-
fendent refuse 1 to give them up, stating that he distrained them for
the rent which had become due after Lady.day, in consequence of
which the preient action was brought.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff; damages 71. 1 Is.

ships' attention to the case of John Harman, who was convicted
last sessions of having in his possession a copper plate for the pur-
pose of forging notes for the Toronto Bank, and for whom a point

of law bad bee reserved for the consideration of their Lordships.
Mr. Justice VAUGHAN said it would, perhaps, be right to consult
Mr. Justice P,atteson upon the subject, as the case was tried by
him ; but as the point alluded to had been duly considered by the
Judges, }mime no hesitation in saying that they had come to the
conclusion that the conviction was right, and under such circum-
stances the prisoner would be brought up to receive sentence among
others in tlbe usual way.

that institution liberally giving her the benefit of a good of,":,
sical education gratuitously : and she was progressing rapidly
as a pianoforte-player, when a latent tendency to consumf-

THE ASHTON-UNDER-LYNE

TORIES.

The loyal beef-eating Conservatives of this place
suffered " a heavy blow and great discouragement"
on Wednesday last. That was the day fixed for
the annual dinner of the Conservative Association ;
and the walls of Ashton, and all the neighbouring
places, had, for a week past, been covered with
large blue bills, announcing that that venerable and
consistent advocate of the rights of the people, Sir
Francis Burdett, had honoured the society by ac-
cepting their invitation to dine with them. The
day came, the tables were spread, there was an
overflowing attendance in consequence of the clap-
trap placards ; in short, every body who was ex-
pected came, and some scosriets mmorep,abnuetn.tSir Fe:pact:lite.

ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA.
THE QUEEN'S PLATE,
which is to be sailed for on Saturday, is likely to be sharply
contended for; the interest excited is intense. In most
matches for this plate the winner has been known almost
to a certainty before starting, but it is very different this
time ; the best judges are divided in opinion as to the pro-
bable result, though the prevailing opinion is in favour of
the Dolphin, 217 tons, and the Galatea, 190 tons, both
known good ones ; the Miranda, 164 tons, is an excellent
sailor; the Ariel, 118 tons, is a new vessel, but is spoken
very highly of, but the superiority of the two former in ton-
nage makes them the favourites; all the vessels are here
preparing for the match—we wish them a fine breeze, and
that no accident may mar the sport, and that the best vessel
may win.
