The following was the verdict of the jury :—" We
find that the said Captain Thomas Bowden's death was
caused by accidental drowning, in his attempt to escape
from the fire which had taken place on board the steamer
Granauile on the 14th of April, 1847, off Lambay, of
which vessel he was captain.
"From the evidence which has come before us, we
have as yet no means of ascertaining how the melan-
choly fire originated, but we do not attribute blame or want
of proper precautions to either the owners, captain, or
crew of this ill-fated steamer.

We strongly recommend Captain Pullen and his crew
to the favourable consideration of the owners of the
steamer, also to the Humane Society. We beg also to
express our unanimous disapprobation and censure of the
conduct of the captain and crew of the smack Frederick,
for the heartless and unfeeling conduct exhibited by thew
in not affording the sufferers every assistance within their
power."

LAUNCH OF ANOTHER, s,FEAMER. On Sa"
turday afternoon a fine new iron steamer, called the Joseph
Miller, was sent off the stocks into the Thames, from the
building yard of Miller, Ravenhill and Co., at Orchard
Wharf, Blackwell, in the presence of a considerable number

seen to great advantage. She was built for the Lower and
Middle Rhine Company, and for service on that river, after a
design of Mr. Pasco. Her length between the perpendiculars
is 175 feet ; breadth of beam, 19 feet; depth of hold, mid-
ships, 9 feet; draught of water, 2 feet 10 inches; burden, old
measurement, 314 10-94ths tons. She will be fitted with a
pair of Miller and Co.'s 40-horse power oscillating engines,
and be lightly rigged with two masts. Her saloons. cabins,
&c., are to be handsomely decorated, and furnished by first-
rate artists, and will probably exceed in elegance and com-
fort any vessel of the same class now afloat. The name was
given, at the urgent request of the owners, compliment
as a
to Mr. Miller as an engineer, and an expression of the com-
pany's sense of the important services he has rendered the
by supplying them with their best vessels, especiallypecially the
Elberfel4 and Concordia, which have no equals on the Rhine
for speed or accommodation. After the launch a numerous
party of ladies and gentlemen partook of refreshments in a
room commanding a full view of the river, over the counting-
house at Orchard Wharf. " Success to the Joseph Miller"
was of course drunk with all the honours, followed by "The
_
health of Miss Ravenhill," sister of the second partner of
the firm, who had performed the ceremony of baptism with
possil6l dispatch; the engines are nearly ready, and the
vessel The Joseph Miller will be completed withta. all
vessel will, in all likelihood, be on its station by the first or
second week in June. - -

It is stated that Mr. Frederick Howard, son of Ma-
jor Howard, of the 10th Hussars, who was killed at Waterloo,
will be private secretary to the Chief Commissioner ot W00(18
and Forests, in the room of Mr. Mackintosh, lately appointed
to the Govarnerehip of st. Christophe's.
