EVENING EDITION

MURDER OF A FOREIGN CAP-
TAIN IN SUNDERLAND.

On Friday, the inhabitants of this borough were
thrown into a state of excitement by a rumour that the
body of a murdered man had been found in the river.
The body was discovered by a ke.clman, who saw the
head moving in the water, and giving the alarm to the
people on board the Atlantic, a man named Ralph
Stafford, and another person, assisted him in raising
the body, which was found to be tied to a large square
piece of lime-stone, weighing upwards of a hundred
weight, and which,l by some mortar on one side, seems
to have been used in building. The rope, which appears
to be of a foreign make, and to have been used in the
running rigging of a ship, was tied tightly round the
waist of the body, and both ends bad been safely
knotted in a very complicated manner about the stone,
leaving: about four feet of rope between the stone
and the corpse. On the body there was no other
apparel than a pair of stockings, a flannel shirt ,and
a cotton shirt, torn open, and marked at the
bosom, with red cotton, "J. 8.-1." Attached
to the neck, was a small camphor bag, and on the
fourth finger of the left hand a plain gold ring.
The body being removed by the police and the per-
sons who found it to the Monkwearmouth old work-
house, was soon after recognised by two of the crew of
the brigantine Phoenix, of Stettin, as that of their cap-
tain, John Frederick Berkholtz. This ship which is in
ballast from Leith to the address of Messrs. Grenwell and
Sacker, has been lying for some days off Mr. Alcock's
building-yard, a considerable :distance below the place
where the body was found. The captain spent Tues-
day evening on board of a Prussian vessel lying along-
side, and went on board his own ship about eleven
o'clock. The account given by his crew is, that the
captain went onshore at the ferr3-boat landing on the
north side of the river, about half-past four on Wednes-
day morning, dressed in a new silk hat, new pilot coat,
&c., and had with him a watch, with gold chain and
seals. From that time, they say, they never saw him
alive, but his absence excited no uneasiness till yester-
day morning, when the Phcenix was in turn for
coals—it being supposed that the unfortunate man
had gone over to Newcastle on a visit to some fo-
reign captains of his acquaintance, now in that port.
'The police investigated the matter, and the result
was that the mate of the vessel, who is in custody, was
suspected of being the murderer.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

We think our Correspondent who subscribes himself " A
Cockney," and also gives his name and address, complains
without reason of the Croydon Railway Company. The
advertisements point out p-eciselv where the Norwood
station is, and one who has bee❑ in the habit for twenty
years of visiting the place where the gipsies congregate,
ought to know something about the Jolly Sailors.
We cannot find room for the letter of " Ocellus," but if we
could, we are afraid it would not reform either the Rshoi)
of Exeter or the Bishop of London.

GRAND ROWING MATCH.

THE CAMBRIDGE SILVER SCULLS.—The final struggle
for the Cambridge silver sculls, the amateur championship of
the Cam. came off yesterday. It was frem first to last a most
excellent and even contest. This contest was first instituted
three years since, when Mr. Colquhoun, sen., a member of the
Funny Club, gave this prize as an encouragement to sculling
amongst the gentlemen of the Cambridge Universities, and
vested the power with the Lady Margaret Club of St. John s
to make such alterations in the wagers as to them might seem
meet for the better encouragement of this invigorating sport.
The articles of the race stipulate that the prize be a floating
one, and that the winner of each year, arid necessarily the then
holder of the sculls, shall, in the ensuing season, accept any
challenge or resign the prize; but, in order to give him a
better chance, the gentlemen desirous of disputing the palm
of victory have to row with each other on the 12th of June,
and the successful one of that body rows the final match
against the holder on the 17th. Mr. Shadwell, of St. John's
Mr. Drew, of Trinity, and Mr. Vincent, of St. John's, were
the challengers of the present season ; and in the match of last
Wednesday, detailed in our paper of the following day, Mr'
Vincent was the victor, and yesterday was engaged in the final
struggle for championship with Mr. Antrobus, the winner of
last year and holder. The start took place at six o'clock, Mr.
Vincent taking the choice of station at Westminster-bridge*
They were both off together, and kept abreast of each other
by the llorseferry and Chandler's. The work in each boat wl
beautiful, and Mr. Antrobus got a slight lead as they ne.kr,e
Vauxhall Bridge ; but, in their desire to get most in the tif.ie,
they came foul and abreast of each directly afterwards. Air'
Antrobus got clear, but was pressed hard to the Eagle, where
they were again together. Mr. Vincent here got away, "15
adversary could not overhaul him, and he arrived first at
Putney by a considerable distance, his adversary having gone
foul at Battersea Bridge.

LITERARY LION-ISMhad.—We have lately
a most piquant article, in a well-known periodical, on the
scope and tendency of Literary Lion-ism, from the pen of
a lady, who, from personal experience, is better qualified
for the task than most of her contemporaries. But we
arc now, it appears, to have " a whole history" of a Lite-
rary Lion, and from the pen (if report speak truly) of a
writer singularly well qualified for the office. The sub.
ject is undoubtedly a very admirable one. The personal
history of a popular author of the nineteenth century can-
not fail to furnish innumerable traits and topics fraught
with unusual interest and entertainment ; and as in the
instance of " The Lion," we are expressly promised " a
tale of the coteries," we may fairly look for the most at-
tractive novel of the season.

PROGRESS OF CHARTIST AGITATION.

Letters were read from Dumfries, stating that a large
meeting had been held there last Monday. It was held
in the open air, and was attended by the townsmen and
inhabitants of the neighbouring districts in thousands.
The inhabitants gave a triumphant entry to Bailie
Craig. There were numerous bands of music in the
procession, together with banners bearing various inscrip-
tions ; among the most conspicuous were those with
the mottoes, " Scotland free, or a desert ;" " Bailie
Craig, first Chairman of the Con% ention ;" " Equal laws
and equal rights—peacefully if we may, forcibly if we
must ;" " Stephens, the Friend of the Poor." A
black flag, surmounted with a pike ; a death's head
and cross bones. " Universal Suffrage or Dead."
The Northern Star Nevvspaper, surmounted with a
brilliant star. The Birmingham Journal, reversed,
and trimmed with black fringe. The meeting
passed very strong resolutions in favour of the
Convention. From Bethnal Green Association, from
Worcester, from Dunfermline, from Stirling, from Aber-
deen,:from Wooton-under-Edge, from Chelmsford, from
Salisbury. All these letters emanated from meetings
or Associations, and enclosed rent or requested assist-
ance from the Convention, to enable the parties at
whose instance they were written to take measures to
counteract the effects of Tory hostilities.

LIFE ASSURANCE.
The new principles on which this Society is founded, bring
the benefits* f Life Assurance within the "each of all. It pro-
vides against the contingency of misfortune during life, as well
as against the risk of death ; and even affords to the Assured a
fund out of his premiums on which he can at any time operate,
as his circumstances may requiro. It thus affords to the pru-
dent of all classes, the greatest facilities and most powerful en-
couragement to lay up a certain provision for the future.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same new principles, the Society is
enabled to afford to the public a plan of DEFERRED ANNUITIES
far more advantageous than any hitherto offered, whereby an
individual, by the contribution of a very small annual,
monthly, or weekly saving, may secure either a comfortable
provision for himself in advanced age, or at his option. a large
sum of money, or a policy to his family at his deith.
The industrious classes, hitherto obliged to resort to Savings'
Banks and Benefit Societies, will find in this scheme a far safer
and more profitable application of their savings. This Society
is enabled, by judicious and accurate calculations, to afford a
Deferred Annuity of a much greater amount than has hitherto
been offered, beside . the option of exchanging this annuity
when payable, for a large sum in cash, or a still larger Policy,
payable without premiums at death ; while, by giving to the
purchaser, at any time preceding the stipulated term of the
Annuity's commencement, the power of borrowing two-thirds
of all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from
inability to continue premiums, besides affording au ample re-
source during sickness and want of employment ; and, should
the purchaser die More arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The purchaser has also the power of converting, on equal terms,
his deferred into a prese A Annuity.
The following tables are a specimen of the great and varied
advantages Which the judicious application of a small saving can
secure through the Society.

THE PRESS.

Dr. M'DOUALL said, before the regular business of
the day commenced he would beg leave to notice a
Report in The Sun newspaper of ,yesterday's pro-
ceedings. It had given the remarks of Messrs.
Rogers and Cleave in reply to his observations. This
was unfair, and notwithstanding it gave what Mr. Mars-
den and others repeated in defence of what he had said,
as to the tyranny generally practised by the rich over
the poor ; it was unjust to him (Dr. M'Douall) to send
forward the strictures of those gentlemen on his speech,
without stating the nature of that speech. He did
not notice this on his own account, but from motives of
wishing to stand well with his numerous and respectable
constituency ; and no matter (Several of the Dele-
gates rose to order.)
Mr. MILLS said that this was completely out of order
—there was no question before the Chair ; besides, he
did not think they had any right to interfere.
The CHAIRMAN concurred with Mr. Mills. It was
out of order to address the Meeeting without a question
being before it. He would request that Dr. M'Douall
would content himself with what he had already said.—
(Hear, hear.) He the (Chairman), however, hoped
that in future, care should be taken to give full and
explicit reports, in order that no reason of complaint
would be had by particular Members.
[Notwithstanding Dr. M'Douall's pantings after
popularity, he should feel much obliged at his yester-
day's speech, as well as many others he addressed to
the Convention, not being reported—they were as re-
mote in their tendency to elucidate the question in
debate, as is an acorn to a seventy-four gun-ship. It
and others were omitted solely in mercy to Dr.
M'Douall, from the possibility that they might, from
the violent and dangerous maxims which they incul-
cated, subject not only the Convention, who with few
exceptions repudiate such maxims, but also the Doctor
himself, to a narrow chance of having his personal safety
put in jeopardy.—Reporter to THE SUN.]

MR. WHITTLE HARVEY.

A resolution proposed by Dr. FLETCHER, and se-
conded by Mr. NEEsom, " That the petition to the
House of Commons, for the restoration of Mr. Frost
to the Commission of the Peace, be withdrawn from
D. W. Harvey, Esq., and given to Thomas Attwood,
Esq., for presentation," was carried, after some obser-
vations being made by Mr. Carpenter, Mr. Sankey, and
others, as to the propriety of the proposition.
TORY RIOT AT DEVIZES.

A motion of which Mr. Skevington had given notice,
on the conduct of the Tory authorities towards the
Chartists in the above place on a late occasion, was
postponed until the return of Mr. Vincent.

CONFIDENCE IN THE MINISTRY.

Majesty's Nlinisters.
Colonel BUTLER presented petitions from three
parishes in the Slllle county, to the like effect.
Mr. BROTHERTON presented a petition from

The Belgian and Dutch question that at one
time seriously threatened the peace of Europe, is
new reduced within such narrow limits by the con-
sent of the Great Powers, that though the final
settlement may be delayed for a short period, no
one has the slightest doubt or anxiety about the
result. The opponents of Lord PALMERSTON'S
policy—=those that praised the obstinacy of the
Dutch King, and tried to laugh to scorn the peace-
ful diplomacy (or, as they.called it, the protocol-
ling policy of the Foreign Minister,) are now re-
duced to a sad dilemma. They shun the very use
of the word " protocol."I is associated with
painful recollections, and with awful prophecies of
war, which succeeding, events have utterly falsified.
Some eight years ago Lord ASHBURToN expresied
. his conviction that the Noble Lord and his col-
leagues would not be able to preserve the peace of
Europe for six months. It has been pre-
served for more than - the same number of
years, .not only in Europe, but in almost every
part of the world ; and when we recollect
the irritating questions that were then un-
settled, and the powerful and prejudiced parties
with whom a Liberal Government had to contend, we
need not wonder at the humbled tune of the Fo-
reign Secretary's factious ar:o.tans. His agency,
at least so say both Belgians and French, has
brought the dispute between the Dutch and Bel,
gian Sovereigns to all but an amicable conclusion.
During the same period the Pretender to the
throne •of Portugal has been driven into ba-
nishment, the country has been restored
to comparative peace and prosperity, and, but for
the antagonist and Machiavellian policy of one
of the contracting powers to the Quadruple
Treaty, Spain might have been brought to
the enviable condition of her more fortunate
neighbour. The SULTAN and the Pacha of
EGYPT have hitherto been.restramed by the same
system of policy from involving themselves and others
in war. Austria, ona of the great powers forme ly
hostile to the Whig Government, has not only been
conciliated, but has joined in the strictest bonds of
unity with the country, by the conclusion of a
treaty, which even the enemies of the " protoc-
tolling" Lord are compelled to eulogise. Two
years ago, France and America owed their recon-
ciliation to the interference of England, and France
and the world have again to thank England for
restoring peace between her and Mexico. These
are: facts beyond the cavils of controversy, and to
no other Government, as regards their Foreign po-

ISLE OF WIGHT.

COWES, APRIL 11.—Norris Castle, the favourite re-
sidence of her Majesty in the Isle of Wight, the pro-
perty of Lord George and Sir George Seymour, has
been this week sold to It. Bell, Esq., owner of the
Aberon yacht, of the Thames Yacht Club. Various
rumours are in circulation as to the future destiny of
this splendid .domain, some asserting that it has been
purchased for her Majesty Queen Victoria ; others for
Queen
,Adel Aide, who has been long reported to be
about to take up her residence there ; while some say
Mr. Bell intends building a number of villas, and
converting the Code into a Hotel ; should be and
art do only half what nature has done for this lovely
spot, it will exceed in beauty any other in England,
perhaps in the world. The Castle was built under the
direction of Mr. Wyatt, and has 124 acres of land
attached to it. It is seated on the steep deecent of the
coast to the Solent Sea, and commands a view of that
strait, superior in beauty to any other point in the
island. To the east, Portsmouth, with the fleets at
Spithcad and the Motherbank, full in view, and the
richest line of the woody coast of the island, from Barton
to Nettleston, appear in long and varied perspective,
with numerous villas and the town of Ryde. To the
north, the Southampton River is seen in its whole ex-
tent, and the town of Southampton, with its spires and
towers, though distant, is no inconsiderable object..
Cowes Roadstead, with its ships bearing the flags of all
nations, and; its splendid yachts, surpassing all others in
the world. The woods of the New Forest clothe the
view to the west ; while Calshot Castle, at the point of
its bank of shingle, stands boldly out amidst the
waves, and marks the separation between the Solent
Sea and Southampton water. The Castle is of a
very noble general form, and its clustering towers
in every point of view, particularly when seen from
the sea, are a striking and commanding object, and
greatly add to the beauty of the general scenery of the
coast. The lawn runs down to its bold beach, which is
admirably adapted for embarking there is excellent
bathing, and yachts may lie close in with the shore.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sia,—l perceived in your Paper, some evenings
since, a statement that " Muneluke" was in service as
a cab-drawer in London. This I can state is a great
mistake. He was sold by Theobald for a great price
last year, to go to France as a stock-horse. There
were other famous horses stated in the same paragraph
to have come to an unhappy finale. I thing this also
likely to be erroneons, for these horses (old racers), are
always valuable as stock-horses.

In the Report of the Constabulary Commis-
sioners just published, there is this remarkable
passage, speaking of the general causes of depreda-
tion, of vagrancy, and mendicancy, "We find that in
scarcely any cases is it ascribable to the pressure of
unavoidable want or destitution ; and that in the
great mass of cases it arises from the temptation of
obtaining property with a less degree of labour than
by regular industry." The people get more by pil-
ferin,c, than b' honest industry, and so they pilfer.
In this they only follow the landlords' example.
The only difference is that the rogues who are
punished by the law, pilfer in opposition to it, while
the more cunning men of land pilfer by its means
and under its protection.
On Monday we drew attention to the great
