The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Com-
pany's ship Ripon, Captain E. Cooper, took her depar-
ture yesterday, the 20th inst., for Gibraltar, Malta, and
Alexandria, with the heavy portion of the East India,
China, and Mediterranean mails, 66 passengers, a full
general cargo, and specie valued at 457,6141. ss. 7d.

HEALTH OF VIZ BLACK SEA FLEET.—Frequent at-
tacks of ague :are very common in her Majesty's ship
Arethusa and Vengeance, both which ships suffered
severely from in termittent fevers at Besika Bay. It
has been necessary to use very large ouantities of
quinine. The want of medical officers in the squadron
is quite lamentlabile.—MACCa Times and Gaxettc.

the experiment made last year in Alte Cps Zie' Mars,
in the presence of the Emperor of the French, at the
Royal Gardens, -Vauxhall, where two attempts were
made, but were unsuccessful, owing to the balloon not
having sufficient ascending power. After which, MN
Wardell, the lessee, refused to allow another attempt to
be made, which led to his being engaged by Mr. Simpson,
the proprietor of the above gardens.
At seven o'clock all was in readiness, the " Royal
Cremorne Balloon " was inflated for the purpose of taking
up this novel piece of machinery, and Mr. Adams, a very
experienced and skilful aeronaut, who give good promise
of following in the same track of the " Veteran Green,"
took his station in the car. The machine, with the
parachute attached, in which was seated the intrepid
Frenchman, Mons. Letour, left the earth amid the
cheers of the large assemblage. After travelling in a
south-east direction, and at an altitude of 6,000 feet—
upwards of a mile—the parachute was seen to leave the
car, and slowly descend to the earth.
At 11 o'clock it was announced that Mons. Letour
had descended in safety on Blackheath, and soon after-
wards he appeared on the platform to receive the ap-
plause of the company, who heartily welcomed him. As
regards the utility of this newly-constructed parachute,
we cannot state anything in its favour ; but Mons.
Letour declares, in positive terms, that he can steer
through the air—a feat never yet aeompliahod.
Previous to the closing of the gardens, Mr. Adams,
the aeronaut, made his appearance, and was loudly
cheered by the multitude, who congratulated him on hie
success in taking up the parachute—a task in which
Mons. Godard, the celebrated French aeronaut, had
twice failed.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.

The cases in the list for the morning were for audits
and dividends.

AN OLD COMMISSION, 1790.-IN RE NITZTEB AND NUNES.
, A dividend meeting was held under the estate of these
bankrupts, who were described as merchants, in London
and Barbadoes. The commission bears date so far back
as 1790, but it has been discovered that there is a sur-
plus available for a dividend, which if not claimed will
be paid over to the account of the Accountant-General
under the provision of the Bankruptcy Consolidation
Act.

LATV INTELLIGENCE--(THIS DAY).

QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Before Lord Campbell, and Special Jury.)
THE QUEEN V. THE REGISTRAR OF THE FHERMACEUTIOAL

SOCIETY.
In this matter a mandamus had been issued calling
upon the registrar of the above society to return the
registry, it being alleged that a number of names had
been improperly inserted upon the registry who were
unqualified to act, and that the provisions of the act
passed in June, 1852, had not been carried out.
The Attorney-General and Mr. Bramwell appeared
for the plaintiffs, who alleged that defendant had refused
to produce the registry. -
Sir Fitzroy Kelly and Mr. Macaulay were for the de-
fendant.
After some evidence had been given, a special verdict
was taken to raise the question that it might be argued
in error.

HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK.

(From the .Report of the Registrar-General. )
In the week that ended last Saturday, the number of
deaths registered in London was 1,085. In the ten cor-
responding weeks of the years 1844-53 the average
number was 892, which, if raised in proportion to in-
crease of population, becomes 981. The facts indicate
a rather high mortality ; they show that about a hundred
persons died last week above what is usual at this the
healthiest period of the year.
The present return, however, shows a small decrease
on that of the preceding week, when the number was
1,110. Zymotic diseases in the aggregate also exhibit
a decrease, the cases in which these were fatal having
been in the previous week 306, in the last 278. The
deaths from scarlatina declined from 68 to 47 ; those from
hooping-cough fell from 63 to 51. Small-pox was fatal
in the two weeks in 11 and 6 cases, measles in 31 and
39, typhus in 64 and 61 ; diarrhoea, was fatal to the same
extent in both weeks ; the number referred to it is 31.
Five persons were carried off by influenza ; 3, of whom
2 were children, by purpura.
Last week the births of 824 boys, and 828 girls, in all
1,652 children, were registered in London. In nine cor-
responding weeks of the years 1845.53 the average num-
ber was 1,311.

At the Royal Observatory, Greenwicb, the mean read-
ing of the barometer in the week was 29.558 in. The
reading was 29.81 in. at the beginning of the week, and
it was 29.64 in. by 9h. p.m. on the 15th. The mean
temperature of the week was 55.1 deg., which is 3.9 deg.
below the average of the same week in 38 years. The
mean temperature was below the average on every day
of the week ; and on Tuesday, when it was lowest, the
depression was 6.3 deg. below the average. The highest
temperature of the week was 69.2 deg. on Wednesday ;
the lowest was 42.9 deg. on Sunday. The mean dew
point temperature was 50.5 deg., and between this and
the mean air temperature the difference was 4.6 deg.
The wind blew from the south-west, except on Thursday
and Friday, when it was in the east. The amount of rain-
fall was 0.38 in., most of which occurred on Tuesday
and Thursday. --

ANOTHER OLD CARE.---IN RE NEWBOLD.

This bankrupt was described as of Sheffield and New
York, merchant, and this was a dividend meeting. The
commission is dated 1828, and the circumstances are
similar to the above.
The amount of the dividends will be declared in a
few days.

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Under-Sheriff Burchell.)
LIBEL.-BADMAN V. VISCOUNT DRUMLANRIG.
This was an inquiry to assess damages in this case,
which was an action for libel, and defendant had suffered
judgment to go by default of plea.
The damages were laid at 1,0001., and the action was
founded on a letter inserted Bell's Life, containing
strictures on plaintiff's conduct respecting a proposed
fight between him and Hayes.
Mr. Robinson appeared for the plaintiff, and said that
from a communication made to him by the defendant's
solicitor he had no doubt the jury would be spared all
trouble in the case, which was adjourned by consent for
a fortnight to effect an arrangement.
There were a great number of veterans of the P.R.
in court.

The other cases in the list were withdrawn.

FRANCE.

It would appear as if the rumours long in circu-
lation with respect to the retirement of M. de Per-
signy from the office of Minister of the Interior
were about, at length, to be realised. The Moni-
teur of yesterday contains a report addressed to
the Emperor and signed by M. de Persigny himself,
in which he gives a sketch of the history of
his administration ever since he entered office,
enters into details as to the principal measures
which have • been adopted under his directions,
and sets forth with great unction the difficulties
which he encountered in his way and overcame.
It is usual in Prance when a great man dies that
one of his friends shall pronounce an eulogium of
his past life and character over his grave. M. de
Persigny in a manner performs this duty for him-
self. He pronounces an eulogium over his oval
political grave, and he has shown judgment in not
trusting the task to any one but himself. For, as
the object of the document is to prove to tine
world that M. de Persigny is the greatest of
Ministers, and especially of Ministers of the' In-
terior, it would be hard for him, now that he is
going ont of office, to find-any one to perform the
task of flattery half so completely as he does it hisn-
self. It will probably not be forgotten, even at the
distance of five years, with what terror the advont
of M. de Persigny to office. was regarded by the
National Assembly and by the people of Fran ce.
For months before the coup d'eteit of the 2d of lie-
comber, the President of the Republic, when he
wished to intimidate those whom lie considered ob-
stacles to his projects, threatened them with M.
de Persigny as Minister. At length the threat was
put into execution., but not till after the coup d'etat
had been accomplished by other hands. On the
23d of January, 1852, M. de Persigny was ap-
pointed Minister of the Interior, and he himself,
in,the commencement of his report, makes no se-
cret of the fact that he was placed in that position
to carry out the views of empire entertained by
Louis Napoleon for years.
The weather in Paris yesterday was beautiful,
and has ;caised the spirits of the farmers. The de-:

"Dear Sir,—We are glad to say that your apparatus quite bears
Cat the assurance yon gave us that it would answer our purpose.
" The doubt we had as to its adaptation to furnaces with defective
draught is entirely removed. Our liquor copper now boils quite as
soon as the wort copper, and with both there is a diminution in the
consumption of fuel.
" The experiment we witnessed at Messrs. CHARINGTON, HEAD,
and CO.'S, as to smoke prevention, we thought at the time perfectly
inwessw, and this impression we are happy to confirm from actual
experience.
It win give us pleasure to reply to inquiries that may be made by
any Brewery' Firms at Burton-on-Trent, but should suggest that it
may probably be more satisfactory to those gentlemen to judge for
themselves by seeing the furnaces at work, and this they can de at
Any time.

their duty to fully commit her for trial on the charge of
murder, at the next assizes at Hertford. She frequently
shed tears during the proceedings, and at the close of
the case urged Mr. A ppleyard, her solicitor, to ask the
bench to admit her to bail, which was refused.
The coroner's jury also returned a verdict of wilful
murder against her, and in course of the evening she was
removed to Hertford Gaol.

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester Guardian of Saturday.)

MANCHESTER, August 11—Daring the past week
there has been a good deal of inquiry for the middle and
lower counts of yarns from the home manufacturers, and
the Dutch, German, and Mediterranean merchants. For
India, also, there still appear to be some buyers. The quo-
tations of last week have, consequently, remained firm,
at the least ; with an upward tendency in some descrip-
tions. The strength of the market has perhaps been fully
as apparent yesterday and to-day as it was on Tuesday.
The demand for goods is still, as it has been for a con-
siderable time back, relatively inferior to that for yarns.
The disproportion of prices has consequently been con-
tinually increasing, to the aisadvantage of manufac-
turers ; and it is now felt to be a maikr of serious mo-
ment: .

BRADFORD, Aug. 10.—WoolsrThe stock of English
wool in this market has not been so small at this period
fur several years. Spinners have been using up their
stocks, and buying only to meet their immediate wants,
fully anticipating a further reduction in prices. Yarns—
The increasing difficulty from the advsinged-prioe of wool,
renders it impossible to produce yarns at the prices cur-
rent a few weeks ago. For both spools and reeled yarns
higher prices are demanded, and there is no disposition
to sell for distant delivery. Pieces—the piece trade is
in a more perplexing position than ever. Wool is dearer.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY).

The August session of the Central Criminal Court
commenced this morning before the Right Hon. the
Lord Mayor, Russell Gurney, Esq., Q.C., Alderman
Farncombe, Sir R. W. Carden, and the sheriffs, under-
sheriffs, &c.
The first edition of the calendar contains the names of
123 prisoners, and the session will in all probability last
the whole of the week.

Mr. Gurney delivered a very brief charge to the grand
jury, in which he congratulated them on the absence of
charges of violence to the person, there being only one
case of that description in the calendar. The only charge
of novelty was one arising out of a recent act of Parlia-
ment, in which a prisoner was charged with having
house breaking implements in his possession without
lawful excuse, and he said that when the fact of having
the instruments was proved, it was for the prisoner him
self to make out the lawful excuse, the object of this act
being the prevention of crimes of this description.
The grand jury then retired.

LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN

ENGINE MEN.

It is worthy of notice that out of a staff of about 140
engine-drivers and 140 firemen employed on the southern
division of the London and North-Western Railway,
about 50 drivers and 50 firemen only have struck work
at the present time ; and that not only have the regular
engine-drivers of the company on all the branch lines,
and those at Camden and Wolverton (two of the largest
stations), with the exception of one man, remained at
their duty, but that also a large number of the extra and
occasional drivers employed at Wolverton came forward
and volunteered with great promptitude and the best of
feeling to do the work of the men on the strike.
We are glad to find that this improper attempt to in-
terfere with and impede the public traffic on this line has
been promptly and successfully met by the good and
faithful conduct of the officers and other old servants
in the service of the company, and that the trains have
continued to bo worked with great regularity.
London, England, 1854-08-14

THE WAR.

Mr. HUME asked the noble President of the Coun-
cil if Austria or Prussia was prepared with us to demand
from Russia some substantial securities that, in future,
the peace of Europe should not be disturbed by Russia
upon such slight causes as those which had led to the
present war. (Hear, hear,) It had been announced,
in another place, that Russia intended to evacuate the
Principalities, while Austria was not indisposed to help
England and France to secure a speedy peace. He
should be glad, as no doubt the country would be, to
hear the noble lord confirm that statement. (Hear.)
Lord J. RUSSELL said a communication had very
lately been made by the Russian Ambassador to the
Court of Vienna, stating that it was the intention
of Russia to evacuate the two Principalities of
Wallachia and Moldavia. At the same time an interchange
of notes took place between the Foreign Minister of
Austria and the Ambassadors of England and France,
which specified the terms upon which the latter Powers
were prepared to make peace with Russia. What these
terms were would be found in the letter of the Foreign
Minister of France, which appeared in to-day's papers ;
but as this interchange of notes occurred after the an•
no,:incement of Russia, that she intended to evacuate
the Principalities, it remained to be seen whether Aus-
tria would prefer to communicate these notes to St.
Petersburg, with a view of opening further negotiations
for peace, or whether she would rather immediately
set her mobilised army in motion, for the pur-
pose of assisting England and France in ob-
taining by force the securities which they demanded.
It was satisfactory, however, to know that while Aus-
tria would not be content with a return to the status quo,
she generally approved of the securities which had been
proposed to her. (Hear, hear.)
London, England, 1854-08-14

LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST 14, 1854.

Hitherto the country has been told by Minis-
ters that it is altogether impossible to conjecture
while the war is actually still going on what may
be the precise conditions for the ultimate restora-
tion of tranquillity. The Prime Minister, indeed,
bas even replied with more than his customary
petulance to those who have ventured to thrust
an inquiry upon this head upon the Members
of her MAJESTY'S Government. His Lordship
has gone so far, in truth, as to declare that the
conditions of the future peace must be left to be alto-
gether contingent upon the results of the struggle
between the forces of the Allies and those of the
Russian AUTOCRlT—vowing to the amazement
'of the entire community that the terms of the paci-
fication must be wholly dependent upon some such
astounding alternative as that of the Anglo-French
army advancing victoriously upon St. Petersburg,
:or of the Muscovite troops appearing in triumph
before the gates of Constantinople.
• A craven avowal certainly—and one, we are
_bold to say, .altogether unparalleled as coming
"from a recognised Leader of the British Govern-
ment.

• As if England and France could consent under
any circumstances to an abatement of their just
'demands, or to the fact of the terms of a peace
.being dictated by the CZAR of All the Russias,
beicanse of his soldiers having won their way at
the, point of the sword to the shores of the Bos-
-phorus !
As if the Western AllieS of Turkey would re-
quire more than prudence and reason dictate at
-this moment, in the event of their combined arma-
ments taking possession successively, say of 'lel-
singfors, and Cronstaclt, and Sebastopol !
However, setting aside the morale of the ques-
tion, the fact of Ministers having declared the
the inqui-
,impossibility of giving any answer to
ries, just now, while the war is pending, as to the
nature of the conditions for the ultimate restora-
tion of tranquillity, is wholly and notoriously
disputable. The fact of Ministers having insisted
'icability of entering into these
upon the imPracu
v
eagerly looked-for (and.ery naturally so looked
. for) explanations—is, we repeat, wholly and no-
toriously undeniable. Insomuch so that, as we
have already observed, the Earl of ABERDEEN, in
insisting upon the impossibility of explaining the
nature of the objects of
the war, has daringly
maintained those objects to be contingent upon
the alternative of the allied army appearing in St.
;Petersburg, or of the Russian army entering
.Constantinople.
Well—and after all these repeated anall to say
the least of theca, most remarkable assertions on
the part of the Ministers of the Crown of Eng-
land—there appears in the Moniteur the notable
despatch, dated Paris, July the 22d, 1854, ad-
_ (Arfssed by M. Duouyxs DE 1:11ITYS to the Baron

THE NEW BEER BILL.

Yesterday was the first day on which the new Beer
Bill came into operation, and after ten o'clock at night
there was some excitement in the vicinity of the rail-
ways. Half-past two o'clock yesterday afternoon, the
time appointed for closing the different houses, passed
off, generally speaking, without any disorder ; but as
the hour of ten drew near, most of the licensed
victuallers, who had put the hands of their clocks forward
some few minutes, so as to clear their houses in sufficient
time to avoid the pains and penalties oft he new law,
had the greatest difficulty in getting their customers to
leave. Many refused, unless they were turned out by
the police, and owing to the arrangements made by the
respective superintendents of each division, in having
constables placed round each house, the various taverns
were soon cleared. It was remarked by the police that
they never found the trade so anxious to conform to any
act of Parliament as on the present occasion.
In the immediate neighbourhood of the South-West-
ern Railway terminus, in the Waterloo-road, upon the
arrival of the various excursion trains from Hampton-
court, Richmond, Windsor, and Southampton, it ap-
peared that some of the passengers were ignorant of the
new bill having come into operation, and having been
refused any refreshment in the towns they had visited,
they expected that they would meet with every accom-
modation on reaching the metropolis.
A crowd of nearly 200 surrounded the Hero of
Waterloo, and claimed the right of being supplied with
the refreshments, on the ground of being travellers, but
Mrs. Okey refused to serve them.
A similar scene took place at the York, the corner of
the York-road. Mr. Potter refused to supply any as
travellers, unless a bona fide case were made out.
Several of the metropolitan houses having tea gardens
attached to their premises were exposed to greater
danger of being proceeded against than others, owing
to the visitors calling for more drink than could be con-
sumed in the time allowed by the new bill ; the orders
given were disregarded by the several guests, but the
houses were, after some trouble, closed at the appointed
time.

In the neighbourhood of the Eastern Counties Rail-
way at Shoreditch a similar scene of disappointment
took place, the various passengers being refused refresh-
ment upon their arrival by the different trains from
Yarmouth, Norwich, Colchester, Cambridge, and other
places.
In several places, more especially in the neighbour-
hood of Lambeth, persons who had travelled by the
trains from the country, after demanding admission on
the ground of being travellers, on being refused pre-
tended that they were seized with the cholera, but,
without the interference of the police, none of those were
served.

the board. The staff of the office is completed with the
exception of the inspectors. Dr. Sutherland and Dr.
Granger will be immediately employed as Medical In-
spectors, to act for the metropolis, and to confer with
the various local authorities in all measures for arresting
the spread of the disease.—Observer.
A CASE FOR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION.—There is now
in Portsmouth Harbour a vessel, on board of which the
vilest treatment has been given to officers and men for
some time. As a specimen of the conduct pursued to-
wards the former, we merely instance a by no means
solitary case of one of them, in uniform, on the quar-
ter-deck, having been called a " liar and blackguard" by
another officer, and in the presence of the commander
and others, who did not interfere ; and as regards the
latter, between 4,000 and 5,000 lashes aro reported to
have been served out during the vessel's commission.
One quarterly return, if faithfully made, should contain
(we are informed) 2,000 or more lashes—some of the
crew have had as many as upwards of twelve dozen each
—many of the crew deserted, and among them three
Marines (an unheard of thing to notice in this loyal and
patriotic corps), one of whom is a general officer now in
the rebel army in China; another was shot in the ranks
of the Imperal army in the same warfare, All three
belonged to the Artillery corps, and their names are
Lamburn, Pattison, and Shea. The account of these
sanguinary inflictions will most probadly not appear in
the return moved for by Mr. Hume .n the House of
Commons on Wednesday night.—Hampshire Advertiser
and Portsmouth Herald.

LATEST NEWS.

THE WAR

EXPEDITION AGAINST THE CRIMEA.

A telegraphic despatch, dated Vienna yesterday,
says ninety thousand allied troops sail from Varna
to-day on an expedition against the Crimea.

OCCUPATION OF THE PRINCIPALITIES

BY AUSTRIA.

The Moniteur of yesterday states that the staff
officer sent by the Austrian Emperor to the camp
of Omer Pacha, is charged with the duty of arrang-
ing with the Ottoman Marshal the entrance of
Austrian troops into the Principalities. The Moni-
teur represents this occupation as being in execution
of the treaty concluded last June between the
Vienna Cabinet and the Porte.
The Cassel Gazette, a well-informed and careful
paper, states that Prince Gortschakoff (the ambas-
sador) notified verbally to Count Buol that the
Emperor Nicholas had given orders to evacuate the
Principalities. He received an answer also verbally,
that the Austrian troops would occupy the Princi-
palities, but that such occupation had nothing
hostile to Russia.

The Mon iteur of yesterday publishes a despatch,
stating that Bucharest is occupied by 10,000 Turks.
The head-quarters of Prince Gortschakoff are at
Basco.
