THE NAVY.

Orders were yesterday received at Chatham
directing the screw steamer Rattler, 17, 950 tons,
200-horse power, to be fitted for the first division
of the steam reserve at that port, in lieu of the
Zebra, 17, 200-horse power, which has been com-
missioned. The Rattler was launched at Deptford
a few weeks since, and she is a remarkably hand-
some vessel. She is being fitted with her engines
and machinery by Messrs. Maudslay and Co.
The Diana, 42, sailing vessel, lying near the en-
trance to Chatham harbour, has received rather
serious injuries by having been run into by the
merchant ship Kathleen. The Kathleen also re-
ceived extensive injuries.
. _

Admiralty instructions have been received by the
Captain-Superintendent at Deptford dockyard to
the effect that the new screw steam-vessels now on
the stocks will not at present be proceeded with.
The whole of the workmen employed on the Endy-
mion, 36, frigate, and the Favourite, 22, corvette,
have consequently been withdrawn. The only
wooden vessels now in progress is the Jaseur, a small
gun vessel of 80-horse power, which is nearly
ready and will be completed for launching. The
Salamander and Osprey, paddle steam-vessels, are
now under extensive repairs at this yard.
Yesterday 35 mechanics of various trades, em-
ployed on board the iron steam frigate Resistance,
18, at Chatham, received notice that their services
would no longer be required after the 12th inst.
Ward's new Admiralty telegraph, used some time
ago on board the Channel fleet, was yesterday
received at Woolwich, having been modified, the
lamps reduced in weight, and the lights strength-
ened in brilliancy. The lamps having been in-
spected by the Commodore-Superintendent Sir F.
Nicolson and a committee of officers were pro-
nounced to be improved.
The sailing transport Eliza, chartered for Ber-
muda, yesterday commenced shipping a cargo of
10-inch guns, shells, carriages, platforms, &c., from
Woolwich Arsenal.

ADMIRALTY IMPROVEMENTS.

Lord KINGSDOWN said last autumn it was under-
stood that formal steps would be taken for the bringing in
of a bill to purchase the houses in New-street, Spring-
gardens, in order to enlarge and improve the Admiralty.
Nothing had yet been done, and he should like to know
what was intended to be done.

The Duke of SOMERSET said he was very anxious that
the proposed improvements should be carried out, but cir-
cumstances had prevented active sf eps being taken up to the
present time. The inhabitants of the houses might have
considered themselves safe for the present year, but he
eould not answer for a longer period.
THE ITALIAN PAPERS.
The Marquis of NOR MA NDYconaplained:of:the scanty
information contained in the papers that had lately been
laid before Parliament. There being but one letter from
Sir J. Hudson, and that was not of a very important cha-
racter he should like also to know why no notice had been
taken by Sir J. Hudson of the important discussions that
have lately taken place in the Chambers at Turin. A case
had also occurred in connection with the proclamation
against brigandage which he thought ought also to have
been noticed.

Earl RUSSELL said all the papers bearing on the
question in th e possession of the Foreign-office had been given
to the noble marquis. With respect to the particular set
of cruelty referred to Sir J. Hudson, had had no complaint
made to him of auy act of oppression, therefore he did
not think it neeessary to give any account of it, and with
respect to debates in the Chamber at Turin, Sir James was
was not in that country for the purpose of reporting any
circumstance that transpired in than assembly. It could
not be expected that he should forward an account of every
subject that took place in a foreign country. (Hear, hear.)

Mr. Bury Hutchinson, for the plaintiff, called his client,
and a witness, from whose testimony it appeared that on
the 27th July last,' a cab belonging to plaintiff, having a
fare inside, was proceeding down the Bayswater-road, near,
but not on the Marble Arch-street Railway Companies
rails. A car belonging to the company came along at a
rapid pace, and, as a considerable portion pro-
jected over the rails, a collision ensued, the re-
sult of which was that the car was knocked off
the rails, while the cab was dashed on five
and twenty yards, the fare being thrown out, of
course, very much frightened. Application was made to
the offices of the defendants in Cannon-street, and after-
wards to Bayswater. The cab was smashed all to pieces,
and taken home in a cart.

It was remarked that no one appeared for the company,
and Mr. Hutchinson said that in consequence of recent in-
dictments it was neatly finished up.
His Honour was in considerable doubt as to the proof
of the liability of the company, observing that Mr. Train's
admission had no power to bind the limited company.
A witness—Mr. Train is the holder of 200 £5O shares.
His Honour said that plaintiff could have a verdict, but
there was considerable difficulty about getting the money.
Verdict for plaintiff.

CRIMINAL COURT--THIS DAY,
London, England, 1862-04-10

ItURDER OF A WIPP.

On Tuesday afternoon an inquest was held at
Collie, by Mr. J. Hurgreaves, coroner for the Black-
burn hundred of Lancaster, touching the death of
Jane, wife of Waker Moore, tailor, of Keighley,
Yorkshire. Joseph Hartley, father to the deceased,
said his daughter was 32 years old. She had lived
a miserable life with her husband, and about two
months ago had left him in consequence of his mis-
conduct. Joseph Metcalf, of Keighley, mechanic,
said that about a quarter to twelve last Friday he
met Walker Moore in Keighley, and set out with
him for a walk. As they were going along the
prisoner proposed they should go as far as the Hare
and Hounds, at Black-lane-ends, near Colne, where
his wife lived with relations, who kept the house.
They found her there, and she served them with
some ale. The prisoner seemed disposed to be
friendly with her, but she did not seem to be so with
him. He wished her to go with him. She replied,
" If I can't live quietly hero I will go home," mean-
ing to her father's house. At nine o'clock the wit-
ness and Moore went to bed, the former slept with
a boy, and the latter with Wm. Wood, the landlord.
He went to sleep and did not awake until next
morning, when the prisoner called him. When he
went down stairs he and Moore began to drink ale,
part of which he mixed with rum and part with
wehriysy. w
ngl illi
The deceased served them with it, but
very unwillingly. The deceased stooped down kunbe-
fore the fire to clean the fire irons, and the prisoner
satthe
t on
the "settle" near her. When Wood
le
place long
to fetch more ale, the prisoner rose
from his seat, Placed his left hand behind
the back of the deceased, and then sud-
denly with his right hand drew something across
her throat. She got up immediately, and blood
ran from her throat. She put her apron to stop
the blood. Woad then returned, and, as the
deceased seemed falling, caught her in his arms and
laid her on the long settle. She died in less than
five minutes. Moore, when spoken to, said, " I came
purposely to do it." He had never given the witness
the least idea of his intention. William Wood, the
landlord of the Hare and Hounds, corroborated the
statement of the last witness. The prisoner had
threatened to cut his throat. Police-constable
Charles Lord said that the prisoner, "on his way to
the lock-up, said, "Well, policeman, I will tell you
all about it. Her uncle and cousin (William Woods)
came and fetched her away from Keighley about
six weeks since, and she has been living there ever
since. I knew she was sleeping regularly with her
cousins. I asked her to go back with me this
morning, but she wouldn't, so I killed her." He
afterwards added, "It is all through William Wood,
and I should have been better satisfied if I had cut
his throat too."

Am-
bassadors :—" The great event of the day
is the arrival
here of the Ambassadors of Japan. The embassy is com-
posed of five ambassadors, 12 officers, and some
servants.
The chief is a man of about 50 years of age. They have an
intelligent physiognomy, although their countenances are
not very prepossessing; the nose is large and flat, the lips
thick, the eyes oblique, the complexion sallow, and the
head large. Their hair, of a jet black, is raised up on the
head, which gives the younger portion of them a rather
feminine appearance when seen from behind. Several of
them have the head completely shaved, but none have the
I slightest appearance of a beard on theface. They are gene-
rally dressed simply in garments of dark colours, and
with little ornament. They wear a silk tunic, trousers,
of white muslin, and sandals of yellow leather. They all
wear in their waistbelt a dagger more or less richly chased,
according to their rank or dignity. They have on their
heads a kind of Chinese hat in straw, those of the Ambas-
sadors being gilded on the inside. The Japanese are very
sober. They usually drink liqueurs and rice water ; and
as regards food the prefer boiled poultry. They y sit at table,
use knives and forks, and season everything they eat with
pepper and spice. They are remarkably clean in their
manner
of eating, as well as in their daily habits. They
do not appear to be at all annoyed at the curiosity which
they excite. They appeared astonished at the princely
luxury of the hotel at which they have alighted, and where
they occupy the splendid apartments on the first floor. In
the evening every part was lighted up in the most brilliant
manner, and an immense crowd collected in front of the
house,"

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITH'S
" GOVERNMENT tIPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
Intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Groasmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

RAILWAY INIBILIOBNCE.

ST. ANDREWS.

The half-yearly meeting was held at St. An-
drews on Monday—Mr. W. Smith in the chair.
The directors' report stated that the receipts
amounted to £1,837, as against £1,777 in the cor•
responding half-year. The directors recommended
a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum,
which would take a sum of £5O from the reserve
fund.

The CIIAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said he was glad the directors were able to
announce a slight increase on this occasion, having
had to report a decrease at the two previous half-
yearly meetings. The goods' traffic had suffered of
►ate from several accidental circumstances, but the
passenger traffic, which was the mainstay of the
line, continued steadily to increase, the number con-
veyed last year being 20,000 over the promoters'
original estimate.

The report was unanimously adopted, as was also
a report on the subject of telegraph communication
to St. Andrews.

A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the pro.
ceedings.

PARIS AND ORLEANS.
The annual meeting of this company was held
last week in Paris--M. Bartholony in the chair.
The report,which was of considerable length,stated
that the expenditure on capital account for the old
line; 1,475 kilometres in length (922 miles),amounted
to 362,422,5011(£14,496,900),inc1uding 11,291,0131
expended during the year 1861, and 325,966,837 f
(£13,038,673) on the new lines, 682 kilometres
(426 miles in length), making together
£27,535,573. The gross traffic receipts for the year
1861 amounted to 78,929,314 f. (X 3,157,172), and
the expenses, interest, and other charges, to
43,050,320 f. (£1,722,013), leaving a balance of
35,878,995 f. (X 1,435,159) ; out of this was deducted
1,076,370 f., the usual reserve, and 2,162,558 f., the
percentage on profits to which the servants of the
company are entitled, leaving a net sum of
32,373,221 f. (£1,294,929) for distribution among
the shareholders. Of this sum 9,000,000 f. (£360,000)
was distributed on the Ist of October last, and on
and after the Ist inst. 21,000,000 f. (£840.000) was
to be distributed, making the dividend for the year
100 f. per share or 20 per cent., and leaving a bal-
ance of 2,373,221 f. (£94,929).
Resolutions were passed adopting the report,
electing M. Soulaoroup a director, authorising the
creation of 300,000 new shares of 500 f. (£2O) each,
the interest on the amount called up for the years
1862, 1863, and 1864 to be at the rate of 5 per eent.
per annum, declaring a dividend on the shares of
20 per cent. for the year 1861, of which 6 per cent.
had been paid in October last, and the remaining
14 per cent. was to be paid in the present month ;
appointing an audit committee of five shareholders,
and re-electing the retiring directors.

MURDER OF A WIFE.

On Tuesday afternoon an inquest was hold at
Comm, by Mr. J. Hargreaves, coroner for the Black-
burn hundred of Lancaster, touching the death of
Jane, wife of Waker Moore, tailor, of Keighley,
Yorkshire. Joseph Hartley, father to the deceased,
said his daughter was 32 years old. She had lived
a miserable life with her husband, and about two
months ago had left him in consequence of his mis-
conduct. Joseph Metcalf, of Keighley, mechanic,
said that about a quarter to twelve last Friday he
met Walker Moore in Keighley, and set out with
him for a walk, As they were going along the
prisoner proposed they should go as far as the Hare
and Hounds, at Black-lane-ends, near Colne, where
his wife lived with relations, who kept the house.
They found her there, and she served them with
some ale. The prisoner seemed disposed to be
friendly with her, but she did not seem to be so with
him. He wished her to go with him. She replied,
" If I can't live quietly hero I will go home," mean-
ing to her father's house. At nine o'clock the wit-
ness and Moore went to bed, the former slept with
a boy, and the latter with Wm. Wood, the landlord.
He went to sleep and did not awake until next
morning, when the prisoner called him. When he
went down stairs he and Moore began to drink ale,
part of which he mixed with rum and part with
whisky. The deceased served them with it, but
very unwillingly. The deceased stooped down be-
fore the fire to clean the fire irons, and the prisoner
saton the long l "settle" near her. When Wood
left the place
to fetch more ale, the prisoner rose
from his seat, placed his left hand behind
the back of
the deceased, and then sud-
denly with his right hand drew something across
her throat. She got up immediately, and blood
ran from her throat. She put her apron to atop
the blood. Wood then returned, and, as the
deceased seemed falling, caught her in his arms and
laid her on the long settle. She died in less then
five minutes. Moore, when spoken to, said, " I came
purposely to do it." Ho had never given the witness
the least idea of his intention. William Wood, the
landlord of the Hare and Hounds, corroborated the
statement of the last witness, The prisoner had
threatened to cut his throat. Police-constable
Charles Lord said that the prisoner, on his way to
the lock-up, said,
" Well, policeman, I will tell you
all about it. Her uncle and cousin (William Woods)
came and fetched her away from Keighley about
six weeks since, and she has been living there ever
since. I knew she was sleeping regularly with her i
cousins. I asked her to go back with me this I
morning, but she wouldn't, so I killed her." •He
afterwards added, "It is all through William Wood,
and I should h•Wire been better satisfied if I had cut
his throat too."

LATEST NEWS.

PARIS, APRIL 10.

The illoniteur of to-day contains the following :
" The celebration of a jubilee has been prescribed
by the Ardhbishop of Toulouse in commemoration
of a grievous and bloody episode of our ancient re-
ligious discords.

" The present legislation and the concordat in
reference to the performance of Catholic worship in
the public streets, all impose 071 the Government
the duty of prohibiting a ceremony which might ex-
cite division and hatred, and disturb public peace.
Without derogating in any way the almost imme-
morial custom which sanctions the so-called proces-
sions of the Holy Bodies,' the Government has
decided on interdicting all the processions or cere-
monies in the streets mentioned in the pastoral of
the Archbishop of Toulouse:.

PARIS, APRIL 9.

The report that the fleet will escort the Emperor
on his approaching visit to London is unfounded.
The Paris evening journals publish a dispatch
from Athens, dated April 4, stating that hopes are
entertained of an arrangement being effected with
the insurgents upon the basis of a modification of
the Ministry.
It is asserted that M. de Lavalette will leave
Paris to-morrow for Rome.

The case of the appeal, M. Mires, referred by the
Court of ,` Cessation to the court in Douai, was
further heard today.
The Procureur Generablin his reply ,to the defen-
dant's counsel, expressed his opinion that the
demand of M. Mires for a fresh examination of his
accounts by other official auditors should be
rejected.

TURIN, WEDNESDAY.

The Biritto of today announces that Garibaldi
has arrived at Pavia, and has been received with

great enthusiasm.

The journals of this city state that the Capitulary
Vicar of Bologna has been arrested.

MADRID, WEDNESDAY.

To-day in the Congress, the Government, in re-
ply to questions relative to Mexico, declared that it
approved of the prEliminary convention of Soledad,
and of the conduct of General Prim. It also ex-
pressed hopes that harmony would not be disturbed.

ST. PETERSBURG, WEDNESDAY.

Baron Bismark Schonhausen, the Prussian Am-
bassador, had a private audience of the Emperor
yesterday in order to take leave.

ITALY.

A letter from Cremona of the sth, in the Italie,
says :—" General Garibaldi this morning made his
entry into our town. The legion of the National
Guard, the corporation of the emigrants, the Car-
biniers, and an immense multitude of the people
went to meet him. The general entered by the
Ognissante Gate, and the scene was a most exciting
one. A number of Neapolitan soldiers prostrated
themselves before him, calling him the liberator
and saviour of Naples. The multitude attempted
to take the horses from his carriage, but Garibaldi
energetically opposed it, and he slowly pursued his
way amidst a complete shower of flowers. A num-
ber of other carriages followed the general's.
Three of them were filled with officers of the regular
army, and in another was Gan. Steffanelli, the com-
mandant of the division, in plain clothes, with one
of his aides-de-camp in uniform. On the arrival of
the cortege at the Trecchi Palace, General Steffa-
nelli hastily approached the carriage of Garibaldi
to open the door, which he did with an emotion
shared in by the hero and by the people, who loudly
applauded. The acclamations of the crowd shortly
after brought Garibaldi to one of the windows,
whence he briefly addressed the people, stating the
pleasure be felt at visiting a town which had fur-
nished so considerable a number of volunteers, and
rendered such service to the cause of Italy. He also
dwelt on the necessity of the people perfecting them-
selves in the use of the rifle, as when that was ac-
complished the question of Venetia would be
promptly solved. The General will this evening
visit the theatre, and to-morrow the inauguration
of the rifle match will take place."

CANTERBURY HALL.

We are promised another performer on the Flying
Trapeze, on Monday, in the person of the " miraculous"
Steckel, an artist from the Cirque Napoleon, who is said
to have earned the title as fully as Leotard has that of the
"wondrous." Philanthropic institutions, and other bodies
which for the purposes of their re-unions have to take
Cromorne-gardens, make excursions on the river, or huddle
together in a theatre, will be glad to learn that it has been
determined to make the Canterbury Hall available for
benefits. To say nothing of the varied character of the
arrangements, or of the great attraction offered by the Fino
Arts Gallery, the learned in such matters will perceive
that the spacious halls furnish a splendid rendezvous for the
patrons and friends of charitable institutions, such as the
Licensed Victuallers, &c., &c., and that the profits to the
undertakings are likely to be much greater when the official
" whips " have room and opportunity for giving a fillip
to the practical benevolence of the visitors. Especially is
the Canterbury Hall and its Picture Gallery suitable for
the afternoon visits of schools in connection with institu-
tions, &c. It possesses great advantages over the theatres,
because the social intercourse which takes place is favour-
able to that loosening of the purse strings so helpful to the
cause of charity, and so inspiriting to the promoters of
benevolent objects. Lambeth will be the principal gainer
by this resolve, although there is no reason why other
localities should not avail themselves of the boon.
London, England, 1862-04-10

which might otherwise have been instituted against
him in any civil or ecclesiastical court, and all that
is asked would be attained. The Bishop might be
allowed to use his own pleasure respecting a sen-
tence of reposition. The seceder would be perfectly
indiffereit to that, provided the law gave him the
full privileges enjoyed by any other lay subject of
her MAJ;STY.
