On Tuesday the following were found:—A fibula, at
the lime•kiln, on the Hedesdon-road (distant about two
miles from the place where the hand, &c., were dis-
covered, on the opposite side of the city), by a man
named W. Noller ; a humerus, near Mr. Manning's
garden, Lakenham, by police-constable Wooller;
another fibula in a field near the Hellesdon-
road, by police-constable Moore; three pieces of
human flesh, at the same place, one of which would
probably weigh a pound, end the others probably less,
by Flaxman; two other pieces of flesh, in Mr. Reynold's
field, near the Hellesdon-road, by William Carter;
another piece of flesh, in the same place, by Martin
Cory; a piece of flesh in the hedge near he windmill,
by Robert Self; also a piece of flesh in each of the fol-
lowing places:—Near Mr. Brown's farm, by Charles
Davison; near Mr. Reynold's mill, without St. Augus-
tine's Gates. by Henry Cubitt; in the hedge near the
mill, and in Brown's field, by Charles Davison.
The search was continued on Wednesday. A number
of the police were employed to drag the river from
Trowse Mills upwards to Lakenham Mills, as it was
though that the party who committed this diabolical
crime might have thrown a portion of it into the river.
Nothing, however, was discovered. Another party of
the police, together with several labourers, were em-
ployed in searching those localities where there was the
least probability of any portion of the body being con-
cealeo. Daring the day the following pieces of human
flesh were found, and brought to the station-house:—Five
pieces of human flesh were discovered in a field a little
past Mr. Reynold'a mill, by three men named William
Neave, Robert Leach, and Robert Burrow; a tibia or
shin bone, in Mr. Shotger's field, by a young
man named
George Chapman: three more pieces in a field belong-
ing to Mr. Gowing, situate next to that of Mr. Rey-
nolds's, by Robert Dewing and Mott Bales, and in
another field adjoining Reynolds's mill, by Charles
Johnson. The only other portions found this day were
a piece of flesh, by a young man named John Scone, in
the field next Mr. Reynolds's mill; and another piece in
a field belonging to Mr. Curtis, by Robert Bewing.
These pieces were generally about the size of a man's
hand, and had been mostly cut from the surface of the
body. They consisted nearly wholly of portions of skin
and thin layers of flesh or muscle. A portion of the
patella was attached to one of the pieces, and the sciatic
serve to another. Notwithstanding that they had been
found at so many different places, and in spots a con-
siderable distance apart, they were found to join when
tried, thus proving that they all belonged to one body.
From this it would seem that the body has been cut into
pieces some time after death, and that the author of
this atrocity has endeavoured to get rid of it by deposit.-

TRANSATLANTIC PACKET STATION.
It was natural enough that in Ireland great hopes
should have been built upon the idea that Galway was
to be converted into the port for steam communication
between this country and the United States. We grieve
that we are compelled by the force of facts to come to
the conclusion that the idea can never be seriously en-
tertained by the Government or the people of this
country. The whole subject has been thoroughly sifted
by 9, body of Commissioners, who have just presented
an elaborate yet carefully digested report to the House
of Lords. These gentlemen do not, "on a careful
review of the arguments that have been advanced,
consider them as sufficient to justify them in mom-
11,ending the proposed change." They seem to have dis-
playv4 a laudable anxiety to consider the subject with
every Possible reference to the interests of Ireland, and
they have

lightest description of goods. " Even with regard
passengers, it is stated that increased expedition -°,l
reduced length of sea voyage wonld not generally cog. in the opinion of the parties above named,
for the frequent changes and delays which the new
route would involve." The Commissioners declare
that they entirely concur with this opinion, and
present the House with a set of carefully pre-
pared calculations. The result of these is, that the
saving of time which would be gained by the adoption
as a packet station of that one of the Irish ports which
is most favourably situated would be under ten hours in
a transit of nearly eleven :days. Now, on the whole, is
it worth while to run so great a risk for so slight a
gain—if, indeed, the term can be employed without
"use of language? Is it a " gain" to save ten hours
when the alternative is so motley a commencement or
termination of so long a journey? Even for those per-
sons who ara most subject to inconvenience from a sea
voyage, is it not better to have one than two agonies? Is
it not some little consolation, in the midst of their mi-
series, that they may retain undisturbed possession of
the berth into which they may have rolled at Liverpool
until the steamer shall have arrived at New York?

Two LIVES LOST ON THE RIVER.—Ott Sunday
a party of five young men were rowing a small wherry on
the river, and on nearing Blackfriars-bridge they ran the
nose of the boat completely under the bows of a steamer,
putting in at the steamboat pier. The smaller boat capsized,
and the five individuals were immersed. Mr. Ware, the pier
master, immediately dispatched a number of his men to
render assistance, and owing to their exertions the whole five
were pulled out of the river, and having been landed on the
pier, they ran off, leaving the boat they had been in drifting
about at the pier. The excitement had barely subsided
when two youths, named respectively Bentley and Davies,
who had been witnessing the rescue of the five persons above
alluded to, slipped off the edge of the sewer leading from
the Fleet-ditch, and were forced by the current into the
Thames. `eery and sundry other piermen were dispatched
to the spot, and would no doubt have succeded in saving the
two unfortunate persons, but just as they were about to lay
hold of the hair of their heads, the steamboat Citizen E came
up and washed both out of the reach of the men. The drags
were immediately procured, and the river was dragged for
nearly two hours, but without effect.
