Copy of an official report fro(m Capt. key, R./NT., her Ma-
jesty's ship Amphion, to Vice-Admiral Sir C. Napier.
Amphion, off Wiudau, June 14.
Sir—Her Majesty's ship uuder my orders having detained
several vessels belonging to neutral nations for attempting
to violate the blockade established on this coast, and sent
them to England for legal adjudication, in accordance
with Articles 9 and 10 of the Admiralty instructions on
the subject. I have the honour to report, for your infor-
mation, the circumstances under which the said ves-
sels have been captured, the manner in which the block-
ade has been carried out, and other points which may
be of importance to the Court of Admiralty commissioned
to take cognisance of this question.
Three p.ints must be proved to condemn these vessels
as lawful prizes :
Ist. That an effective blockade has been established.

2d. That the vessels detained attempted to violate this
blockade. •

al. That they were aware of its existence.
Regarding the first point, I have the honour to inform
you that since May 9th, when I was first intrusted with
the blockade of this coast (at which time I found her
Majesty's ships Conflict and Cruiser on the station, which
vessels had been blockading since April 20th) two
ships have been ordered to cruise off the entrance
of the Gulf of Riga, a passage limited by the shoals
to a breadth of three miles, this entrance has
never been left without one vessel. Two other
ships have been continually passing between ‘* indau and
Memel within sight of the coast.
No doubt in a few instances vessels have succeeded in
evading the cruisers under cover of ihe night and the fogs
which have been so prevalent that the number of vessels
boarded is of itself a proof that vigilance has boon exer-
cised.

second point is readily ascertained by a reference to
the definition which has been sent in each vessel by the
captain of t',e ships detaining her, in which the locality,
the course the vessel was steering, and the direction of the
wind are stated.
With respect to the second point, the knowledge of the
blockade, great care has been necessary to prevent injury
to innocent vessels. The captured vessels come under two
heads—thosa attempting to enter the blockaded ports and
those leaving them. As regards the former, the Captains
of her Majesty's ships received orders that if the slightest
reasonable doubt existed as to the captain or the owner of
the vessel being informed of the blockade, she was to be
sent away with a notification to that effect on his papers.
Under these orders 154 vessels have been warned off since
April 20th, although nearly all of them passed through the
Sound, communicating at Elsinore, which scarcely allows
a doubt to exist of their knowledge of the blockade. Never-
theless, I deemed it my duty to show as much leniency to
neutrals as was compatible with the interests of the Allied
Powers. Four vessels only have been detained for at.-
tempting to enter the ports. Two of these contained coal,
and were without proper paper? ; the others were from
_e
Copenhagen, and confessed their knowledge of th
blockade.

MANSION-HOUSE. William, JP Laughlin, a poor
unhealthy looking tailor, was brought before the Lord
Mayor upon the charge of having beaten his wife, a
powerful and resolute-looking woman.
Mrs. M‘Laughlin seemed to be unwilling to state the
particulars of the assault, and said that slie and her hus-
band would go on well together if the Lord Mayor
would prevail upon Mr. M'Laughlin to keep good hours
and to contribute something towards the support of the
house. Upon being told that she must give a full de-
scription of the transaction of which she complained
at the station-house, and on account of which she had
raised the neighbourhood with cries of murder, she de-
clared that between twelve and one o'clock on Saturday
night, the defendant had returned to his home without
bringing anything to support it ; and, upon being re-
minded of his duty, which he frequently neglected,
showed fight, which she returned. She believed he got
as good as he gave, and as he had been confined from the
time of the row up to the present moment, she wished
him to be handed over to her again, in the hope that he
would be prevailed upon to act better for the future.
The Lord Mayor—How long have you been married?
The defendant (with a deep sigh)--Since October last,
your lordship.
The Lord Mayor—And how long were you acquainted
before marriage ?
The defendant—Three months.
The Lord Mayor—And what answer have you to make
to this charge ?
The defendant—l only tried to defend, myself from
her, for if she once gets hold of a man I defy him to get
loose without the help of another, so that I was thank-
ful to the policeman for cooling when she cried murder,
to save me from being murdered.
The Lord Mayor—Then you are in the habit of dis-
agreeing ?

—The defendant—She chastised me twice immediately
after our marriage. (Laughter.)
The Lord Mayor—Chastised you! Then you mean
that she is the better man of the two ?

The defendant—Lord bless your lordship ! I'd stand.
no chance at all with her. Her own daughter, who is
a married woman, has cried shame upon her, when she
has been walloping me. She used to throw cups and
saucers and crockery at me, and I only stopped that by
telling her to use pewter pots, as they would not be apt
to break against my head. I never struck her but once,
and that was when she took up a knife to open my
windpipe. Then I did give her a buster that probably
saved both of us from a violent death.

The 4th Middlesex Militia, lieutenaat•Colonel Bagot,

Mrs. M‘Laughlin—l do not complain of him, your
lordship, about anything but his not bringing home any
money, for as to fighting, I believe he won't get the
better of me there ; but you see how ill he has been,
and I have been supporting him all the time he has been
laid up. Still he expects that I am to support the
house. .

--- -
The Lord Mayor—How long is it since your first
husband died, Mrs. M`Laughlitr?
Mrs. M‘Laughlin—Five years, my lord. I never had
a word with him in my life, and I'll take very good care
to make inquiries before I run the chance a third time.
(Laughter.)
The defendant It isn't possible for any one to live
with her without being laid up. I have been in the
station-house without a bed since Saturday night, and
I'll be on my oath it's the only happy time I've spent
sines I married her.
The Lord Mayor—Had you not seen something of
each other's temper before you became man and wife ?
The defendant—l.did observe that she had a spirit,
but I thought it was nothing but pluck. She has told
me often since that she did not care for me, as I had
not pluck enough to knock her about when she de-
served it.

. On Tuesday last Sir Charles Wood made his long-
expected statement on the financial condition of India.
The circumstances under which the exposition was deli-
vered were of more than ordinary interest, for this was
the first year of a new system of government—a system
which virtually broke up the old traditional administra-
tion, and transferred from the India-house to the Impe-
rial Parliament no small portion of authority and re-
sponsibility in these important affairs. Nevertheless,
the attendance of the house was thin in the extreme, and
Sir Charless addressed to empty benches his account of
the finances, position, and prospects of one of the finest
empires in the world. Upon the whole, the statement
of the Minister was received with decided•satisfaction by
the few experienced listeners who remained to hear it,
and this reception, considering the various points of
improvement really displayed, was not, perhaps, alto-
gether undeserved. Looking broadly, however, at the
subject, and comparing India as it is with India as we
are assured it might be, we suspect the public will still
find a great deal to desire.
The present condition of the Indian Treasury can be
explained in a few words. The total revenues of India,
when compared with the total expenditure, gave in
1851-52 a net surus of 531,2651. ; in 1852-53 another
872,3351. Taking the three years together, as Sir
net surplus of 639,4651. ; but in 1853 54 a deficit of
Charles thinks ought to be done, we get a surplus upon
the whole period of something more than 300,0001.
Now, we are quite prepared to admit that the value of
India to this country is not to be measured by the results
of a pecuniary balance; and we will even go further, and
acknowledge that a statement showing a largeannual sur-
plus would only show a bad system of government. The
true value of India consists, not in its yield of rupees,
but in the field which it offers to liberal enterprise, and
' in the honourable occupation which it nfforcls to thou-
sands of Englishmen, But for India, all the home pro-
fessions, already over-stocked,• would be infinitely more
crowded, and the difficulties of a respectable subsistence
enormously increased. It is certainly not desirable that
any pecuniary surplus should accrue to this country
from the revenues of India, and any great excess of
means annually shown w.od only prove either that
taxation was too severe, or the expenditure upon
works of utility too small. The proper principle of I
action in these affair.; i 3 to render the burdens of
the native population as light as is consistent
with the reasonable needs of the Goverhinent,
and to apply to public works the chief part of any avail.
able balance. If the taxation of India were notoriously
light, and if all works connected with the improvement
of the country had been liberally performed, we should
consider that a surplus of 100,0001. a-year was a very
satisfactory result. Unfortunately, no such conditions
have been fulfilled. The Indian Government is repre-
sented as oppressive and extortionate in the extreme,
and, though there is doubtless some exaggeration in
the picture, it is allowed on all sides that the natives '
suffer severely under the weight of taxation. With

The next inquests 'related to the deaths respectively
of Klas de Lean, aged 53, and Edwin B. Beddler, alias
Saunders, aged 32, hawkers, who were attacked on the
12th. The former died the same day, and the latter
yesterday afternoon at our o'clock.
The last inquiries were concerning the deaths of Dy-
mock Barker, aged 31, and John H. Hendry, aged 33,
labourers. Barker was seized with cramps, &c., on the
Bth, a;td died on the 12th. Hendry was seized with
premonitory symptoms on the 7th, and died yesterday
afternoon at, four o'clock. A verdict of death from
Asiatic cholera was returned in each case.

The family of Mr. W. Cooke, proprietor of Astley's
Royal Amphitheatre in the Westminster-road, Lambeth,
has been plurned into great affliction in consequence of
the following awful visitation, which will deprive the
patrons of that favourite place of amusement of one of
the principal performers. It appears that Mr. A. Cooke,
brother of the lessee of Astle.,. s Theatre, on Sunday went
to Margate, and the train had got about midway on its
return when he was seized with the premonitory symp-
toms of cholera. He, however, kept his seat, fancying
that he was recovering, but upon reaching the terminus
at London-bridge he appeared considerably worse. A
conveyance was procured, and the unfortunate gentle-
man was driven to his residence in Lambeth, where Mr.
Beck and several other eminent surgeons were promptly
in attendance. Everything that surgical skill could de-
vise was done for the sufferer, but he expired between
the hours of eleven and twelve yesterday. morning.
Owing to the critical state of the widow, it has been
deemed prudent not to inform her of the sad event at
present. The deceased was only 35 years of age.
