TRAGICAL DEATH.

On Saturday evening an inquest was held at the Town
of Ramsgate public-house, Wapping, before Mr. Baker
on the body of a fine young woman, named Emmeline
Fuililove, aged twenty years, who was found in the
river Thames, having committed suicide on Sunday.
It appeared that the unfortunate deceased had been
married only three months to a man named Jonathan
Fuililove, a compositor at the Queen's printing-office

the conduct of the husband, Fullilote, and said
perfect monster. They regretted that they could not
send him to prison, and were most anxious to return s
his
severe verdict, expressive of their strong opinion of _
conduct. After a long discussion, however, they agreed
to a verdict suggested by the coroner " That Emmeline
Fuililove WAS found dead, with a wound three inches in
length on her right temple, which was caused after death;
and that her death was apparently caused by drowning;
but the jurors, however, cannot separate without expres-
sidg their opinion and belief that the deceased has com-
mitted suicide from the brutal and inhuman conduct of
her husband."

At the request of the jury, Futlilove received a long
and severe lecture from the Coroner, who told him he
ought to reflect, as long as he lived, on his base and
heartless conduct to his late wife.

OItEGON NOTICE.—We are enabled to announce that
our Government has received formal notice from the President
of the United States that it is the desire of the American
Government that the treaty for the joint occupation of the
Oregon territory should cease and determine at the expira-
tion of twelvemonths from the date of such notice.—Observer'.

"After his retirement from public life, he gratuitously
devoted one-half of his time to his countrymen, and by his
acquaintance with many of the most distinguished political
and scientific men in France and Europe, he was able to
render them important services. The American citizens,
residing in Paris, conscious of the great advantage which a
man so conversant with the languages, literature, sciences,
arts, manners, and policy of European nations, would Neve
to their country, repeatedly called the attention of the
government to 'him, and the illustrious Jefferson, who ap-
preciated his capacity as a public functionary, and his
private qualities, never ceased, until the hour of his death,
to recommend him to the favour of the Administration.
In his retreat, M. Warden, ever animated with the desire
of being useful to his countrymen, published several works
on America, which had considerable success. His work on
the Origin, Nature, and Influence of Consular Establish-
ments' (1 vol., Bvo., Paris, 1813) was translated into different
languages, and a celebrated English jurist, Mr. John Chittie,
embodied it almost entirely in his Treatise on the Laws of
Commerce and Manufactures' (4 vols., Bvo., London, 1824).
M. 'Warden's Statistical, Historical, and Political Descrip-
tion of the United States of America' ( the English edition,
3 vols., Bvo., Edinburgh, 1819—the French edition, 5 vols.,
Bvo., Pails, 1820), afforded Europe a more perfect idea of the
American States, than all the preceding and subsequent pub-
lications.

"Before engaging in that work, M. Warden, as it were to
qualify himself for so arduous a task, studied anatomy under
M. Dumeril, comparative anatomy under Cuvier, zoology
under Geoffrey St Hilaire, mineralogy under Hany, botany
under Desfontaines and Richard, practical chemistry under
Gay Lussac, and Vauquelin, &c. All these parts are treated
in the work with equal care and talent, and the general plan
was so well conceived that the celebrated Laplace recom-
mended it as a model for a similar statistical description of
France. That publication opened to M. Warden the gates of
the Institute of France, in 1826. The Royal Academy of
Science elected him corresponding member, by a majority of
35 to 15, in the room of Captain Freycinet, who had become
a titular member.
"Mr. Warden next undertook to write the Chronological
Ilistoryof the two _Americas, from the earliest period down to
the present time, for the completion of the celebrated work of
the Benedictines (L'Art de verifier les dates), who had alto-
gether omitted the history of the new world. The publica-
tion of that work, of which ten volumes have appeared, was
interrupted last year by the demise of the Marquis de Fortia,
its editor.

Tables of Lo" Warden translated into English a number of lite-
rary and scientific memoirs and the introduction to the
1809). He like-
wise furnished many articles for dictionaries and reviews,

STEAM NAVIGATION OF THE
BLACK SEA.
Steam navigation of tl,e Black Sea has within the
last few yews insterially increased. Scarceiy tight
years have elupsed since the inha.Jitants of Trebisond
were seized with astonishment at the first sight of a
steam-boat belonging to the Austrian Company of the
Danube, which made its appearance on the coasts of
Anatolia for the purpose of establishing direct relations
with the numerous inhabitants on the borders of the
Black Sea and with the capital of the Ottoman empire.
This first attempt of the Danubian Company did not
meet with encouragement, and for a long time after the
travellers and pilgrims who were proceeding from Persia
and from the centre of Asia to Constantinople or to
Mecca, preferred, to the easy and certain mode of steam-
boats,,, the frail Turkish vessels which from time im-
memorial trafficked between Trebisond and the Turkish
capital.
Fortunately the Austrian Company persevered in its
enterprise. Its vessels re-appeared, and the Greek and
Armenian populations, as well as those of Anatolia, at
length ventured to trust themselves and their property
on board the " fire-ships," as they were then called, and
shortly after the Mussulman population followed their
example.
At the present time there are three companies whose
vessels ply on this line.
Soon after the success of the Danubian Company be-
came established, an Armenian Company was formed at
Constantinople. The principal Pachas of the empire
took part in it, and it received the warm support of the
Turkish Government. The second company was that of
the Austrian Lloyd's, of Trieste, which now plies
through the greater part of the Levant, and to whom
the Danubian Society has this'year ceded all its steamers
in the Black Sea. The third company is composed of
English capitalists. This company is running- in oppo-
sition to the Austrian and Armenian, and sends a fine
steamer every week from Trebisond for Malta, touching
at Constantinople, Smyrna, and Syra. The passage
from Trebisond to Malta is made in fourteen days, and
the number of passengers carried each voyage is seldom
under four hundred.

The Russians have now four steam-boats running be-
tween Odessa and Constantinople, commanded by
English captains ; and three Russian boats regularly
run between Odessa and Kertch.

From Kerteb, and even from Bedul Kertch, travellers
arc taken gratuitously by the Russian steam-frigates,
which make their voyage twice a month, touching at all
the intermediate ports and at the fortified posts estab-
lished by the Russians on the coast of Circassia. The
permission to embark ou board these vessels is easily
obtained ; the voyage is very interesting, and the views
of the coast of Circassia most magnificent. It is, how-
ever, sometimes dangerous to approach too near the
coast, for shots are occasionally fired at the vessels by
the Circassians, from the almost inaccessible peaks
which jut into the sea ; and only a short time since t':e
commandant in chief of the army narrowly escaped a
ball, which passed closed to his head as he was proceed-
ing by one of those vessels to the fortress of Ardier.

There are at present seven Russian steam-frigates
stationed in the Black Sea. Four of these remain at
anchor in the port of Sebastopol, and the remainder at
Korteh, where they are placed at the disposal of General
Badberg, eommander of the forts on the coast of
Circassia.

It is said that Prince Woronzoff is now actively en-
gaged in organising a line of steamers between Kertch
and Trebisond, which, if carried into effect, will be of
immense advantage to the latter port, as the communi-
cation between it and Georgia is now attended with
great danger from the frail character of the Turkish
sailing-boats, which now form the only means of transit.
The number of passengers between these two points is
very considerable.

The number of steamers which now regularly ply on
the Black Sea is 24, exclusive of four which run be-
tween Kertch and Taganrog, on the Sea of Azof, and
two between Bedul, Kertch, and Trebison, touching at
Batum, Pate, and Riach—in all 30.
When these steamers are all properly organised, the
tour of the Black Sea may be made in six weeks, in-
cluding fifteen days passed in quarantine at Odessa.

,c SOME LIE FAR OFF BEYOND
THE WAVE."

A friend, in Paris, has kindly sent us (Nation) some notes
of the life of a distinguished Irishman, lately deceased, from
which we extract the following :
" Died, on the 9th October, 1845, in Paris, where he had
resided for the last thirty-eight years of his lite. David
Bailie Warden, a native of Bally castle, in the county Down,
a citizen of America, and a corresponding member of the
' Institute of France.'
"M. Warden was born in 1778. He entered the Univer-
sity of Glasgow at an early age, and attended the
celebrated lectures of Dr. Millar. Having distinguished
himself in natural philosophy and mathematical science, he
graduated as Master of Arts, and returned to the Ireland of
the United Irishmen. M. Warden was a Presbyterian, and
intended for the Church. His friends, nis principles, his
hopes, were involved in the Union.' He loved his native
land and her freedom, and became one of that glorious
conspiracy. The military Committee in the North chose
him for its confidential agent and gave him the commission
of a Colonel. Through hint the Committee transmitted its
instructions to the general officer, under its orders. The
Catholics in the South, after an heroical struggle of some
months, had been compelled to yield, overpowered by num-
bers. The North was occupied by foreign troops, and armed
bodies of Orangemen. The plans of the confederates, be-
sides, had been disclosed to the Government, and the insur-
rection failed.
" The part M. Warden bad taken in those events, of course
attracted the notice of the authorities, and a price was set upon
his head. But his personal qualities, his distinguished character,
and his extreme youth, could not fail to excite interest in his
favour. After remaining concealed during several days, he
was received under the protection of a magistrate, who
volunteered to become his security if he were allowed to con.
tinue at liberty. On the refusal_ of the Government, M.
Warden was compelled to surrender himself a prisoner.
During his captivity, every means were used to induce him
to divulge the names of the superior officers recently ap-
pointed by the insurrectionary Committee. Promises and
menaces were in turn resorted to, but nothing could shake
the inflexibility of his principles. In those times, to appear
before a tribunal was to receive sentence of death.—
Thanks to the influence of some powerful friends attached to
the English party, Mr. Warden was not tried by Court Mar-
tial. After a detention of several months in the Provost's
prison of Belfast, and on board a ship of war off that har-
bour, he entered into a compromise, and bound himself, in
writing, to emigrate to the United States of America, never
again to set foot on the dominions of England. The pri-
soners who refused to subscribe to these conditions were
transported to Fort George, in Scotland.
" M. Warden sailed shortly afterwards for New York,
where he met with a most cordial reception, particularly from
the Professors of Columbia College. On his landing, he
was offered the chair of Natural Philosophy in the Col-
lege of the Union; but an engagement which he had pre-
viously contracted, prevented him from accepting that offer.
In 1806, he was Rector of Kingston Academy, when Gen.
Armstrong, who bad been appointed Minister Plenipoten-
tiary of the United States at Paris, chose him, with the
assent of President Jefferson, for his Secretary of Legation.
M. Warden, who had become an American citizen in 1804.
was called to that office, as he was more lately, to that
of Consul-General of America, in Paris, without any solici-
tation on his part. Nevertheless, when be found hirrielt
sacrificed, some years afterwards, to a political interest, he
embarked in the sloop of war Hornet, and, on his arrival at
Washington, was reinstated in his post by the unanimous
vote of the senate. He then returned to France, in the Con-
stitution frigate, with the new Minister, M. Joel Barlow, and
resumed his consular functions hi the French capital.
" In 1812, at the death of Mr. Barlow, the power of that
Minister devolved on M. Warden, who, as the only agent
accredited by the United States at Paris, exercised them,
until Napoleon's return from Russia enabled M. Crawford to
present his credentials. Being the sole representative of a
Paris, his certificate was

It was in that capacity
he received the depots of the archives of the Russian
embassy, at the request of Prince Kourakin. M. Warden de-
clined any pecuniary remuneration for that service; but the
Emperor Alexander, not wishing it to remain unrequited,
presented him with a diamond ring. In 1814 M. Crawford
superseded him in the Consulate, in virtue of a secret order
from President Monroe, and bestowed it on one of his friends.
M. Warden remonstrated, and represented to the President
his long and useful services. But all in vain. The conduct of the
supreme chief of the republic was the more extraordinary en
that occasion, as it was M. Warden who, during a visit to
Moncelo, the country seat of Jefferson, was instrumental in
effecting a reconciliation between him and Monroe, and thus
opened to the latter the road to the Presidency. M. Warden
might have repaired to Washington, according to M. Galla-
tin's advice, and obtained his reinstatement through the in-
fluence, of his numerous friends in the Government and Con-
gress; but he had too much confidence in the justice of his
case not to expect that the President would seize the ear-
liest opportunity of making good the wrong he had done
him. He was, however, deceived in h:s expectation. Al-
though•deprived of his official character, Mr. Warden still
continued the real representative of the United States in
Paris.
