They then came on to Kilkenny, andrecovere went to the house
of a priest, where they represented themselves as pau-
pers from a workhouse, as they had the convict dresses
on them, and Donoghue being a cabinet-maker by
trade, remained in the house until he had made two
dressing tables for the priest. The money he got for
this work enabled them to continue their journey into
Carlow. Here Donoghue knocked a man down at night,
and was arrested by the watchman and taken to the
watch•house, Here he saw the placard posted up de-
scribing his person, and offering a reward of 501. for
his apprehension, but even here his cleverness, though
in the convict uniform, did not escape him, and
he told such a tale, as got him his discharge be-
fore he had been an hour in custody. The three
fellows then set off to Kilworth, on their way to
Cork, and Donoghue went into the town to purchase
bread, and there met an old accomplice in robberies, *
fellow of the name of Callaghan, who had just bees
discharged from Cork gaol. Donoghue went into a
baker's shop, and while in the act of purchasing, Calla-
ghan endeavoured to give information to a policeman,_
named M'Dermott, who had been stationed in Cork.
M'Dermott immediately proceeded to the house, but
before he entered he was perceived by Donoghue, who
rushed into the back yard, scaled the wall, and made
through the fields. He was, however, quickly followed
by the constable, who arrested him. Donoghue was
lodged in our county gaol on Saturday. It is supposed
that the other convicts are still in Kilworth mountain.
T- B,

WILL OF LOUIS BONAPARTE,
EX-KING OF HOLLAND.
The will of Louis Bonaparte, ex-King of Holland, was
opened at Florence, on the 26th of July, the day after his de-
mise. We have been favoured with the following details:—
After recommending his soul to the Almighty, he ex.
presses the wish that his remains should be sent to St. Leu,
near Paris, to be near those of his father, Charles Bona-
parte, and of his eldest son, who died in olland in 1807.
He wishes the remains of his second son, who died in Italy
in 1831, to be also brought to the same place, and he appro-
priates a sum of 1,40 W. to the erection of a monument.
I have, says he, borne the name of that village for forty years,
and I liked it better than any other place.
He makes a present to the municipal body at Amsterdam
of all the property he formerly possessed in Holland, that the
income arising from it may relieve the misfortunes occa-
sioned every year by the inundation.
He bequeaths to the poor of Florence a rather considerable
sum.
To his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke of Tuscany the
colossal bust, representing the Emperor Napoleon, by the
celebrated Canova. He desires the Grand Duke to accept
it as a token of gratitude for the hospitality he has received
in his States. To the Grand Duchess he bequeathes a beau-
tiful vase of Porcelain de Rms.
To each of the four scvurs de charite of the hospital of St.
Leu, in France, an annual pension of 4/.
To the poor of Civitanova, 100/.
To several poor of Florence, several pensions.
To his brother, Jerome Bonaparte, Prince of Montfort, his
box at the theatre of Florence, a property valued at 2,4001.
To his nephew, Napoleon, son of Prince de Montfort, a
beautiful diamond.
To his second nephew, Jerome, a souvenir of a similar kind.
To Princess Mathilde Demidoff, a parure in rubies and dia-
monds, left to him by his mothers
Toll nephew, Don Louis, son to Prince Canino, his beau-
tiful Villa de Montughi, with furniture and adjacent lands,
valued at 8,000/.
To his ward, Francesco Castelvecchio, a sum of 6,0001.
After making a few other legacies of less importance, to
all his servants and executors, he adds:—s" I bequeath the
remainder of my property (my Palace at Florence, the
great estate of Civita .Nova, all real property), furniture,
claims, and, in short, all that will form my property
at the time of my death (except what has been bequeathed
by me as above stated), to my heir, Napoleon Louis, my only
surviving son, to whom I bequeath also, as a particular token
of my paternal affection, my Dunkerque, placed in my library,
with all the decorations and souvenirs it contains; and as a
still more particular mark of affection, I bequeath to him the
different objects sent to me from St. Helena, which have be-
longed to the Emperor Napoleon, and which are placed in a
box made for that purpose."
Florence, Dec. 1, 1845.—Post.

- ICE BATHS AND WASHROUSER IN GEORGE-STREET
I.4AMPSTDAD-ItOAD.-This establishment was in full operation all last
week. The baths, though on Monday, being the first day, they were
opened at eight in the morning, have on every day since been opened
at five, and closed at nine at night. The women's baths are opened
at six o'clock in the morning, and closed at eight at night. The
number of men who bathed during the week was rather above 3,000,
being an average of 500 per day, and the number of women was
about 240, or on an average 40 per day. About 180 women made use
of the washhouses, the daily average being 30. In the washing de-
partment there was a great daily increase, there being but 5 washers
on the first day (Monday). Yesterday (Sunday) the men 'a baths
only were opened ; they remained open fur two hours (from BIZ 10
the morning till eight), and were used in that time by 142 person.S.
On no day have the baths bden found sufficient to give accommoda-
tion to all who required it ; and on Saturday night more than 100
persons, being unable to gain admission, went way disappointed after
the place was closed. Every bath being emptied and well cleaned
and scrubbed after each occupant has left, a number of men are kept
constantly at work, and a larger number might be employed if a few
more baths were built, as indeed there is no doubt there will be. The
plunging bath-remains incompleted, the contractor having failed to
make the bottom sound enough to hold water. This, we understand,
will shortly be remedied.
INCENDIARY FIRES.—The town of Soham is still
under the baleful influence of the incendiary spirit. On Friday night
last, about half-past nine o'clock, two respectable youths, going into
an alley at the back of Pratt-street, where there is a large assem-
blage of thatched buildingd, saw the corner. of a barn, belonging to
Mr. Cooper, suddenly burst into flame. They immediately hastened
to the spot, and with great presence of mind tore up some potato
tops, with which they succeeded in beating out the lire. On exa-
mination, It proved that some combustibles had been thrust into the
thatch. There was corn in the barn, and also in some of those ad-
joining, and haystacks very near. The diabolical author of these
vile attempts is still ,undiscovered, but his time will come, if human
eye do not discern him.-Bury Post.
THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY.—RAMSGATE, AUG.
$.-The South-Eastern and Continental Steam Company's packet
the Princess Maud left this harbour this morning at seven mhZdel
past eight o'clock for Ostend, with 58 passengers and the Queen t;.T
the Belgians, belonging to the same company, arrived from Ostend'
at ten minutes past tour o'clock this afternoon, with 42 passengers
and 1 carriage.-FoLgeSTONE.-The Prince Ernest arrived at this
port from Boulogne this morning at 25 minutes past 11 o'clock, with
90 passengers and 1 carriage ; and at 55 minutes past 11 o'clock the
Queen of the French, belonging to the same company, left this .intr-
bour for Boulogne, with 147 passengers.
On Saturday evening the manufactory of Mr. F.
Robinson, cabinet-maker, No. 11, Bond-place, Temple-street, Hack,-
ney-road, was burnt down. Several adjoining houses were also seri-
ously injured, and the loss of property was considerable. The origin
of the fire was not ascertained.

MILITARY FLOGGING.
TO THE EDITOR OF 7'HE SUN.

Sin,—ln the numerous letters which have been written
on military punishments, and in the editorial comments
upon this painful subject, no credit has been given to a mi-
litary officer of high rank, who, many years since, nearly
abolished this degrading and disgusting discipline in the
Indian army. I allude to Lord Combermere, who was
Commander-in-Chief in India, and who issued the fol-
lowing general order on the 19th of March, 1827 :
" General Order by the Right Honourable the
Comm ander-in- Chief.
" Head Quarters Calcutta, March 19, 1827.
"The Commander-in-Chief is satisfied, from the quiet
and orderly habits of the native soldiers, that it can very
seldom be necessary to inflict on them the punishment
of flogging, while it may be almost entirely abolished
with great advantage to their character and feelings.
" His Excellency therefore is pleased to direct, that
no native soldier shall in future be subjected to corporal
punishment, except for the crime of stealing, marauding,
or gross insubordination, where the individuals are
deemed unworthy to continue in the ranks of the army."
The general order then directs that the proceedings
of all courts-martial be referred to the general officer
commanding the division, and if the punishment be
not remitted, the soldier to be discharged from the
service.

THE " CUNNiN43WORKMAN'S " REWARD..—At the
recent Gloucester meeting of the Archaeological Association, as re•
ported in the Builder. Mr. Farmer Dukes, F.S.A., in submitting att
account of the ancient baronial mansion of Plaish, Salop, built In the
16th century, stated that the owner, a judge, inquired at the time he
was building it for an artisan who could execute the ornamental
chimney shafts, and was told that he had himself just condemned to
death the only man In the neighbourhood who could construct them.
Then, said the judge, he shall do my chimneys first. And accordingly
Hie mining workman was respited pro. tem., executed the chimneys,
and was theft hung.
FIRE AT THE MORNING CitnoNicLE OFFlCE.—Yes-
terday afternoon, about four o'clock, whilst Hirst, the parish engineer,
was passing the Morning Chronicle office, hi the Strand, he perceived,
smoke issuing through the Iron gratings of the machine•room, which
convinced him that something wrong had happened within. Without
delay he raised an alarm and sent for the engines. With all possible
expedition the several brigade engines and those of the parish
attended. The firemen then found that a piece of timber skirting,
used for parting off the coals from the furnace of the engine, had ftom
some cause become ignited, and that the fire had communicated with
some of the coals In the same cellar. Owing to the density of the
smoke, the firemen for sometime were unable to touch the exact seat.
of the fire, but by opening the cellar grating in the pavement, a
branch from the plug in the street was inserted, and the water was
allowed to flow beneath, and by that means the fire was got out by
five o'clock. The damage done Is fortunately Inconsiderable.

Being a military surgeon, I felt a painful interest on
this subject, and it is about thirty years since I first
directed the attention of military offieers to the inefficacy
and injurious consequences arising from the revolting
and degrading punishment. It may be an open
.ques-
tion whether it may be necessary on actual service, in
time of war, but it certainly never can be necessary
during the time of peace.
In conclusion, I would beg to refer to the admirable
letters of the late Lord Collingweod on the subject of
corporal punishments, to which he had a most decided
aversion and objection ; and his wise and humane
policy was confirmed by the result of many years' ex-
perience. Your most obedient servant,
August 6, 1846. T. E. B.

THE MURDERS AT BARNARD CASTLE.-Ihe--
inYCSti•
gallon of the charge against George Barker, Thomas B. Rahn, and
Breckin, all young men, charged for the murder of a man and
woman in 1845 (under circumstances detailed in a former paper),
has been prolonged, and remains unconcluded in consequence of its
being necessary to have an order front the Home Secretary for the
removal of Breekin, now in Durham Gaol, before the magistrates.
The girl Humphrey has told her strange and hot rible story ; and her
evidence has been strengthened by the singular fact that, subsequent
to the murder, the rest of Barker was so disquieted that the lad who
slept with him whilst In farm service, at the close of last year, gave
up his employment because his master would not provide Barker
With anothor lodging. It was also proved before the justices that,
at the Inquest on Yates's body, a mark of violence was visible on the
face, which must have been inflicted before death ; and that when
Yates's body was found, Barker exclaimed, " That Yates will tell no
more tales about me." Maine was taken into custody by two pollee-
officers during the night, and he said, " If they had not got him In
bed, blood would have been shed before they had got him away."
As to the charge itself, lie malutahis a dogged silence. Barker, on
reading the warrant over, seemed considerably agitated, and ob-
served, it wcs all right, he knew where that came from. Breekin,
on toeing Informed in Durham Gaol of the offence imputed to him,
denied all knowledge of the affair.

EMIGRATION.—On Wednesday afternoon the Batavier,
Dutch steam ship, from Rotterdam, came into the river with
340 German emigrants, who intend to emigrate to the United
States. They are an instalment of the 80,000 emigrating
from the German States during the present year. YestertLy
morning they proceeded by a special train from London to
Liverpool, for the purpose of embarking on board an Ameri-
canship bound to New York.

DEATH BY LIGHTNING.—On Monday morning, at
Langton Matravers, about five o'clock, the wife of a quarrier,
named Ben&ld, being alarmed at the weather, got out of bed
and opened the door of her room, and whilst standing on the
landing-place the lightning descended by the chimney into the
room, shivering the fireplace, mantelpiece, and the side of the
bed which the woman had just left; the woman was then
struck by it and killed on the spot, the electric fluid thence
descended to the room below and scattered the contents of a
cupboard about the place. The poor woman's husband, who
was lying on the opposite side of the bed from that which his
wife had just quitted, was uninjured. An inquest was held on
the body the same day, before Stephen Bennett, Esq., the
Coroner, when a verdict in accordance with the circum-
stances was returned. So violent a storm has not visited this
neighbourhood for many years.—Poole Herald.
AEROSTATION.—ANOTHER DISAPPOINTMENT.—THE
REY. D. NIIIILL AGAIN.—Mr. Green, the celebrated aero-
naut, visited our town this week for the purpose of making
the necessary arrangements to ascend in his balloon, or, in
other words, to provide a proper place near the gasometer
for inflating it; but we are sorry to say that it is expected
the inhabitants will lose the sight through our vicar again
"striking across." The facts are simply the following:—
An application was made to Gabriel Poole, Esq., for the use
of a field near the gasometer (this field adjoins the Rev.
Vicar's garden and lawn), and it was most cheerfully
granted by that gentleman, provided it would not be annoy-
ing to the Rev. Vicar. Parties waited on the vicar, but he
thought fit not to give his consent, adding, we hear, that
he should leave his house if such a mob were allowed to
assemble near his domicile. A letter was also written by Mr. I
George Parker, one of the churchwarden*, to the rev. gentle-
man, on the subject, respectfully asking him to think better
of it, but of no avail; the answer to this letter was couched
in terms of a priestly character, consequently Mr. Green left
the town, and the thousands who have congregated to wit•
ness the sight are vexatiously denied the same ; besides the
loss the town will sustain in a monetary point of view is not
inconsiderable. Since the above was penned, we are ex-
tremely happy to say that William Browne, Esq., one of our
merchants here, has taken the matter up, and a field has been
obtained for the ascent near the Taunton-road. This field is
some distance from the gasometer; however, portable pipes
are to be laid down, at not a little expense, for the inflation,
and the necessary arrangements with Mr. Green will b
en-
tered into accordingly. The day is not as yet fined for tn
ascent. May the weather prove propitious.—

Two limbs of the law, subpomed to

way
to Teignmouth on Friday last. Two or three causes
happening to go off rather unexpectedly, and the case in
which the two lawyers were witnesses likely to be heard, the
plaintiffs attorney became alarmed, and started the follow-
ing message by the electric telegraph, "'es.** v, ******—
case is called on—witnesses to come up immediately." A
policeman was sent in search of the missing parties, and
found them indulging in a quiet swim in front of the town.
He immediately made signals, but the lawyers being at too
great a distance to hear anything, and believing that the
policeman was ordering them further away, took no notice
of it. The policeman became energetic, making all sorts of
gestures, but without effect; at last, as a desperate resource,
ho plunged into the sea and followed the parties, and a very
pretty race ensued, which at length ended in making his
errand known, and the lawyers posted off to Exeter, but
found the cause as far off as ever, and they attribute the
whole affair to the defendant's attorney, who they say,
practised this successful hoax upon them.— Western Times.
MR. RowE, THE DRUGGIST.--On Saturday last Mr.
Rowe, the druggist, who was acquitted at Devonshire Assizes of a
charge of manslaughter, by administering improper medicines, made
a triumphal entry into Plymouth, preceded by a band of music, play-
ing " See the conquering hero comes." Mr. Rowe was in a carriage,
of which there were three, and many of his friends appeared to look
upon him as a martyr. The Conservative says, great rejoicings took
place at Morice Town and in the neighbourhood, on its becoming
known that Mr. Rowe was acquitted of the charge of manslaughter,
at the Devon Assizes ; and, previous to his return, a subscription
had been commenced towards defraying his expenses. The streets
and houses in the neighbourhood were decorated with flags and ban-
ners ; indeed, such was the manifestation of feeling towards him,
that for this purpose some of the more humble inhabitants had made
use of their tablecloths as an evidence of their desire to follow the
example of their wealthier neighbours. A band of music paraded
the streets daring the day, and several of his friends went as tar as
Ridgway to meet him, others joining in the procession at Plymouth,
and accompanied by the band, flags, &c., escorted him to his resi-
dence in Morice Town, where, on his arrival, Mr. Rowe addressed

DEATH OF SIR PERCEVAL HART DYKE, BART.--
The above venerable baronet died at the advanced age of ninety
years, on the 4th inst., at his seat, Lulliugstone Castle, Kent. The
deceased was second son of the third baronet, by the daughter of
George Horne, Esq., of East Grinstead. Ile was married to a
daughter of Robert Jenner. Esq., of Chiselhurst. He succeeded his
brother in 1831. The first baronet represented Sussex in Parliament
in 1685. The deceased is succeeded In the title and estates by his
son, Perceval Hart, Esq.

SERIOUS GIG ACClDENT.—Yesterday, a very serious
gig accident occurred to a man named James Dann, aged 23 years,
a painter, residing at No. 4,Valentia-place, Biackfriars-road. He was
endeavouring to stop a spirited horse which had taken fright near
Illackfriars-bridge, when he was knocked down, and, bethre he could
recover himself, the otr wheel passed over his left arm, which was
fractured in a most extensive manner. He was carried to Mr.
Viper's, the surgeon, where the injuries were dressed, and after..
wards he was removed to his home, where he now remains in a very
exhausted condition.
