NAV AL INTELLIGENCE.

CHATHAM, SEPT. 23.—The Sou'hampton, 50 guns,
was put out of dock this day, and placed in ordinary.
The Warspite, a razeed, 74 guns, built in this dock-
yard and launceed in the year 1807, was taken into dock
this day, to be fitted fit ^ommission.
Captain Sir Thom:. Bourchier, K.C.8., the newly-ap-
pointed Captain Superintendent, has commenced his duty
at this yard. He arrived here on Monday afternoon
last, and was received by Captain William Henry Sherriff,
and conducted over the various offices; after which they
proceeded on board the guard-ship I'oictiers, when the
officers and crew were assembled on deck, and Captain
Sir Thomas Bourchier's commission was then read to
them. The two officers then returned to the dockyard,
and Captain Sherriff resigned his duty to his successors
and left the yard. In consequence of considerable
alterations to be made in the residence of the Captain
Superintendent, the Captain has apartments at the Sun
Hotel. It is currently reported that Mr. Thomas Vinall,
the Captain Superintendent's Secretary, is to be removed;
the cause of such removal is political.
WOOLWICH, ►SEPT. 23.—The Gladiator steam-vessel,
Captain John Robb, arrived from Scotland yesterday
with troops, and went up the river to Deptford with
them.

The Widgeon steam-vessel returned from Woolwich
to Dover to-day, and the Charron is ordered round to
Woolwich from Dover.

The Violet steamfpacket, on the Dover station, is to
be brought round to Woolwich to be docked, as it is
supposed her bilge pieces are split, the bolts appearing
through her bottom.
The Fearless steam vessel returned to Chatham yes-
terday.
The Diligence transport ship is loading with stores at
Deptford for the Mediterranean, and will take home the
engines of the Sy Benham steam-vessel broken up at
Malta.

A number of convicts have been employed .for several
days deepening the side of the river at the north west
end of the dockyard, close to Charlton pier, for the pur-
pose of making a station for the Hebe, converted into a
depot for the single men of the Woolwich division of the
Royal Marines. A gate has been opened in the wall of
the dockyard, clone to the wharf, to admit the men of the
Royal Marines at all times from the Charlton-road,
without their having to go through the dockyard.
MEMORANDUM—ADMIRALTY, SEPT. 10.—The Lords
Commissioners of the Admiralty are pleased to direct
that the issuing price of soap to her Majesty's ships'
companies shall be reduced from Bd. to 6d.

REMOVAL OF CERTAIN PAUPER
LUNATICS FROM ASYLUMS BACK TO THE
WORKHOUSES.

At the usual weekly meeting of the board of guardians
of the parish of Saint Luke, Chelsea, held yesterday,
Mr. Ryder in the chair, amongst other communications
read to the board was the following letter from the Com-
missioners of Lunacy, on the subject of removing back
to, workhouses simply imbecile or idiotic paupers from
Aylums where, under the Act of 8 and 9 Vic., c, 126
(passed August 8, 1842), being of unsound mind they
are required to be sent, but under the 9th and 10th Vic.
(passed last session), it would appear they are enabled to
be removed back :

LONDON, THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 24, 1846.

Every successive day the intricacies in which the
Spanish Government has been recently involved are
assuming a more ominous appearance. Even when
the Moorish invaders under BOADDIL were most
triumphant in the plains of Grenada, the Spaniards
still preserved a substantial hope of release from
foreign domination ; the sceptres of FERDINAND and
ISABELLA were still the insignias of a protective
puissance; the genius of MENDOZA and XIMINES still
remained in their fullest vigour. During the con-
flicts, again, which were directed by the batons of
MASSENA, and SOULT, and WELLINGTON, the people
of the Peninsula were still cheered amidst their mis-
fortunes by the prospective guarantee of their re-
storation to tranquillity in the shape of an European
treaty of peace. Throughout even those sanguinary
campaigns, in which the causes of the infant IsA•.
BELLA and Don CARLOS were sustained at the sword's
point, and at the culverin's mouth, there was yet the
probability of a speedy and definite settlement to
their grievances through the double interposition
of England and France. Almost all the
darkest and dreariest epochs of Spain were
illumined by some promise of extrication from
national difficulties. At the present juncture, how-
ever, the future is only portentous of sorrows; if we
scan the possibilities of that future, we recognise only
anarchy upon anarchy, commotion upon commotion,
political turbulence in the metropolis, military insur-
rections in the provinces. From the Pyrenees to
the southern boundaries of Andalusia, from Catalonia
to the frontiers of Portugal, there are presented the
same discouraging evidences of disaffection, the same
apparent readiness to engage in some overt act of in-
subordination against the Afrancesados ;, and the
Afrancesados form the Government. In one direc-
tion appears the Duc DE AIONTPENSIEB, backed by
the influence of France, and sustained by the favour
of ISTURITZ and his colleagues. In another appears

LONDON, THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 24, 1846.

Every additional fragment of information received
from the Peninsula is ^ fresh evidence of the advisa-
bility of candour in the proceedings of a Govern-
ment. The intense secrecy maintained throughout
the correspondence anterior to the announcement of
the Spanish marriages—the midnight interview be-
tween the youthful SOVEREIGN and her Ministers—
the weeping acquiescence which is said to have been
ultimately extorted from IsanaLLA—the precipitate
manner in which the ceremonies are being hastened
towards their consummation ;—these and a thousand
subordinate circumstances demonstrate that the pro-
. 'ectel alliances were schemed in mystery and are
: being hurried forward without due premeditation.
This ungenerous policy has already shown itself replete
with embarrassments. It has jeopardised the Admi-
nistration, the pops er of which it was intended to
e:insulidate ; it has placed in a most questionable and
delicate predicament the foreign Prince whose dignity
and happiness it was intended to aggrandise. Jea-
lousies have been excited iti hitherto friendly Cabinets
by these short-sighted machinations. A noble and
beneficent confidence has been l'etrayed. The pas-
sions of the Spanish multitude, awed into sobriety by
the semblance of_independent vigour which had
latterly characterised their Government, and lulled into
security by the apparent absence of foreign domina-
tion, have been again aroused by the wanton exercise
of a hateful authority. Nevertheless, the deceithl-
, ne.---.5 so remarkable in recent diplomacy threatens to
be principally productive of calamities to those whose
mEwskipyrests it was alone intended to advance. pis-

have proved about equal to the demand; and the value
of the article has remained almost stationary.
The market has been poorly supplied with English
and Scotch oats. A few thousand quarters have arriw d
from Ireland, but, inclusive of 7,110 quarters from
abroad, the total supply up to this (Saturday) evening
has amounttal to only 10,9G3 quarters. As is usually
the case when the market is bare, the principal dealers
have contented themselves with buying just sufficient to
satisfy their pressing wants. This they have succeeded
in doing without much difficulty at Monday's quota
tations; but unless supplies speedily come to hand, the
absolute scarcity of good oats will, we think, cause their
value to rise.

The consumptive demand for beans has, as yet,
hardly commenced ; and as prices are regarded as some-
what high for speculation, the business done in the are
tide. has not been extensive. Floating cargoes of
Egyptian beans might have been placed at 335. ; sellers
having, however, been unwilling to accept that price, few
parcels have changed hands. No English peas have come
forward since Monday, and prices must, therefore, be
quoted nominally, as before.
Indian corn has been held very high, which has in-
terfered with its disposal ; for yellow, 40s. to 435., and
for fine white, 435. to 453. per quarter, has been asked.
On Thursday the duty fell to 3s. per quarter on
barley, rye, beans, and peas.

PUGILISM.

PHELPS (OF BRIGHTON) AND SAMUEL MARTIN (OF
LONDON), FOR 501. A SIDE,—The protracted and scientific
contest between this pair of rising stars of the light-
weights came off ou Tuesday, in the Kentish marshes, at
Sea-reach, some nine miles below Gravesend, the point
called the Lower Hope being chosen as the battle-field.
After a steam struggle versus wind and tide, a landing
was effected at the above-named place about the second
hour after noon. The disembarkation, though at high
water, was so intercepted by the dykes and drains of
the river bank, that the casualties and disasters of a safe
arrival on terra firma produced unusual merriment, both
from sufferers and victims of the perils of field and
flood. At thirty-five minutes after two, all preparations
being duly made, the men stood up. There was a dis-
parity of some two inches in stature in favour of Phelps,
although the weight of each man (9st. 31bs.) was alike.
The reach and length of Phelps, who has but once pre-
viously shown in the P.R., was, however, considered to
be counterbalanced by the more closely-knit frame of
his opponent. The contest was marked by all the skill,
tactics, and manoeuvres of the sparring school, inter-
spersed by several rattling rallies at the close of rounds.
At one period, about the middle of the fight, the odds
of 6 to 4, which had been freely sported on Phelps,
appeared in such peril, that the change of 6 to 4
on Martin took place. At this point the Brighton
hero certainly seemed on the decline, but he recovered
amazingly, and at the close of the sixty-first round,
Phelps succeeded in throwing his man an undeniable
cross-buttock, he thenceforth came up all abroad. From
this period Martin in vain struggled to turn the tide of
defeat, which now set strongly against him, and in the
68th and last round he went down incapable of prolong-
ing the contest- Thus, at the close of three hours and
one minute, Phelps was hailed as victor. Considering
the lengthened nature of the conflict, neither man was
heavily punished, Martin's disablement being consequent
on the falls and hitting, and Phelps's from the latter
cause alone. As the shades of evening grew into grey
all parties re-embarked on board the Nymph, which
ploughed her way to the Great Metropolis at a late hour
of the evening.

hear) In summer the dead smell from the
Vaults was easily pereqe.ible in many of the best churches.
1"),:f e often returned home from them, afflicted with
bea,.:aches, vomiting, and fainting fits. The house of
God was thus filled with poisonous exhalations. It was
in feat a charnel house, and the guardian of the sanc-
tuary was made by the present abominable system to have
an interest in its pollution. There was notaccommodation
or cubical space for one-fifth of the dead, without re-
ference to the most disgusting stratagems to get rid of
the excess. Within the Memory of the present genera-
tion, upwards of a million of dead bodies must have been
interred in London. In some small churchyards there
were upwards of 1,200 to the acre. Here Dr. Lynch
referred to some of the statements of Mr. Walker and
Mr. Kelsey, and to the notorious practices of consuming
the corpses eith fire to get rid of the excess, and con-
cluded by calling upon the Court to do itself honour by
leaving no effort untried to get rid of an evil so tre-
mendous.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. WIRE hoped the Court would not be influenced
by the gross exaggerations which they had just heard.
lie wished to know, after all, where the poor were to be
buried.—(Bear, hear.) It was well to cry out about the ,
burial-places of the opulent, but where was the body of
the indigent man to be taken to but to the churchyard
of his own parish ? The Court ought to consider the
rights and interests, and privileges of the poor. If the
Corporation were determined to aid the poor, let them
purchase ground and give it gratuitously for the burial
of those who could not of ,rd to go to a cemetery.
Mr. LAWRENCE said Mr. Wire must surely know that
the parishes must find burial-places for the poor.
Mr. BLAKE was strongly in favour of the motion, and
pointed to the example of the cities of tie days of old,
within the walls of which the dead were never per-
mitted to be detaineJ.

The motion to petition Parliament was then carried
by acclamation.
Air. ANDERTON then procosed and carried a motion
for a petition to Parliament to pass an Act to prevent
nuisances arising from the smoke of steam-engines and
in buildings in and near London and Westminster.

poi by a constal-de, who found the ingot of metal pro
duced lying near the door of the shop.
Ur. Lockyer having identified the metal, the prisoner,
who declined making any defence at present, was fully
committed for trial.

MARLBRO'-STREET.-(THIS DAY )
Dominic Sweenie, a shoemaker, lodging at 36, Thomas-
street, Grosvenor•square; was charged by his wife with
assault and brutal treatment..

The complainant said her husband came home last
night about ten o'clock, and dragged her down the first-
floor stairs, s!ruck her several blows about the head, cut
open her cheek below the eye, and made her mouth and
nose bleed. They live on the ground fluor, but when he
knocked at the door she ran up stairs in terror, hoping
to escape him, as he had often threatened to take her
life, and had abused her frequently. •
The landlord of the house corroborated the evidence
of the woman.

Police-constable C 56 said he was called in and saw
the blood, but thinking it would soon be made up again
he went out. However, screams of murder were heard
before he hail left the locality, and he broke into the
kitchen, where he saw the woman down on the floor,
the man above her with his knees on her chest, and his
hands grasping her throat, in the act of strangling her.
The defendant admitted he struck her.

Mr. LONG said he was sorry that he could not inflict
a punishment more adequate to the offence, but he would
pronounce the severest sentence which was allowed him,
and that was, that the prisoner should pay a fine of 51.,
or go to the House of Correction for two months.

Benjamin Squires was charged with stealing a decanter
of sherry wine from Mr. Hodgon's bar, at the corner of
Charles- street, Oxford-street.
Charles Bonham said, he was standing at the bar
between eleven and twelve o'clock last night, and the
prisoner entered, deliberately bent over the bar, re-
moved the decanter, and walked off with it. As he was
going out, he said to him, " stop, where are you going
with that?" and the prisoner immediately ran.
Police constable, F 124, took the prisoner with the
decanter under his coat.
He was committed for trial.

" Office of Commissioners in Lunacy, 19, New-
street, Spring-gardens, Sept. 21, 1846,
"Sir,—Your letter of the 10th inst. has been brought
under the consideration of the Commissioners in Lunacy,
by whom I am directed, in answer to the question sub-
mitted to them with reference to the power of the Board
of Guardians of St. Luke, Chelsea, to remove simply
idiotic and imbecile paupers from asylums to the work-
house,' to say that the law vests in the guardians the
power at their discretion to remove their pauper lunatics,
at all events from hospitals and licensed houses, and
that the sanction of the Commissioners in Lunacy is not
required to such removal, which must be the act of the
guardians upon their own responsibility.
" The propriety or legality of the subsequent residence
of the insane paupers so removed into workhouses will
depend upon the character of the respective mental dis-
orders, and upon the opinion of the medical men certify-
ing as to the propriety of their confinement in each case.
" I am sir, your obedient servant,
" R. W. S. LUTWIDGE, Secretary,
" Mr. T. M. Loveland, clerk to the Board of Guardians
of Saint Luke, Chelsea."

STATE OF TRADE.

- - - - -
MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22.—The mar-
het to-day has shown increased firmness in price, though
31° great 'amount of business has been done. Most de-
aeriptions of Yarn have advanced to Id. per pound,
and manufacturers have generally succeeded in obtaining
the slightly increased rates which they asked, but could
act command last week.
.„ ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, SEPT. 21.
--lhe demand for flannels has not been so good as it was
15n the previous Monday, whilst prices have been much
the same. The wool market has been rather still, and
the business transacted limited.
HUDDERSFIriIiD. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22.—The
rirtrket has been flat to-day in the Cloth Hall, although
there is a demand for some descriptions of goods that
are not to be had. A fair business is also doing by
order, and a good demand for fancy goods. The trade,
as regards the warehouses, is much the same as last
week. Wools are firm, without any alteration since
last week.
LEEDS, TUESDAY, SEPT. 22,—We had a thin attend-
ance of buyers and a very dull market to-day at our
cloth halls. The unusually fine and warm weather
brings the demand of the home trade later on, and thus
retards operations, which generally begin ere now.

MURDER IN LIVERPOOL. - Yesterday. evening,
about half-past seven o'clock, a woman named Catherine
Tunney, residing at 42, Thomas-street, received such
severe injuries at the hands of hcr husband, Owen Tun-
nay, as caused her death. From the very imperfect ac-
counts we were enabled to glean, it appears that they
had a quarrel, during which Tunncv knocked his wife
down by a blow upon her head with his fist; and when
she was down he kicked her so violently as to cause her
death, before a surgeon, who was sent for, could arrive.
The unfortunate woman was in an advanced state of
pregnancy. The man ab,c,nded immediately, and had
not been apprehended at a late hour last night.--Liner-
Pool Times.

DanaDrut. ACCIDENT. —On Saturday last a young
m 1", named John Kenny, while employed in putting on
the roof of Mr. Kershaw's new mill, near Ashton-under-
tine, fell from the top, a distance of six stories, and
lighting with his face downwards on an iron bar, was so
Inutilated that he expired shortly afterwards. An in-
quest was held on the body on Monday, when it ap-
peared that his death was purely accidental. Deceased
Was 22 years of age.
The Journal de Liege contains the following ad-
Yertisement:—" A. P., captain or infantry, having an-
nounced in the journal of the Bth that he will not acknow-
l.ed4-e or pay any debt contracted by his wife, she thinks
It right, in her turn, to inform the public that she Ilia
hrpay any debt contracted by her'husband, and that
pecuniary resources enable her to pay her debts
much better than her husband can pay his."
