RUSSIA•

-- -
ST. PETERSBURG, July 26.--The authorities of
Moscow hiVe voted a sum of 50,000 silver roubles
from the reserve capital possesfsed• by the'city, for
the expenses that will lac entailed by the solemnity
of the coronation.
The Russian armies suffered severely during the
war from bad military administration. This was
the reason why the Emperor appointed, about -two
months ago, a committee of inquiry under the pre-
sidency of A.D.C. General Prince Vassiltchikoff.
The Maritime Journal publishes the text of the
imperial ukaso in question, the most important.
regulation in which confers on the said committee,
fer enabling it to ascertain the reasons of those
disorders that accompanied the provisioning of the
hospitals and the old armies of the south and the
Crimea, the right of examining all persons what-
soever from whom it may expect to receive any
information, and of citing as witnesses all the ad.
ministrative authorities.

----,

According to recent accounts, the number of
killed and wounded by the fire at Saionica amounts
to fully 700. Among them are the Russian, Dutch,
and Sardisian.consuim.

THE GREAT COMET OF 1556.
The weather has been unusually hot for the past
six or eight days, and we are told this is the conse-
quence of the near approach of the great comet of
155 G, whose re-appearance is due in this month of
August. A correspondent of the Limerick Ob3erver
saw it with his own eyes,on Wednesday night last ;
and, what is more, several other astronomically-
disposed friends of his are ready to confirm his
statement. Here it is :

" On Wednesday night last he was standing near the
salmon weir, on the platform before the mills of Cor-
belly, about half-past 10 o'clock, when his attention was
attracted by what appeared to be a fire rising on the top
of Keeper Mountain, due east of his position. He re-
marked the object to a gentleman who was with him ;
hut, as the fire rose and cleared the top of the mountain,
his friend suggested that it must he a lantern appended
to a kite. It had then the appearance of a globe of
fire as large as a good-sized orange, with a broad tail i•f
light extending about 18 inches from the body. The two
gentlemen watched it for an hour, and the watchman on
the weir observed it also. On Thursday night they all
saw it again. It rose a few moments later, presenting
the same appearances, and was high in the he.tvens at
half-past 11, when they went home. At that hour one
of the gentlemen pointed it out to his sister. Friday
night, from the same place, the same parties azai❑ saw
it rise about 20 minutes before 11, and then it first oc
curred to our informant that it might be a comet. He
ceased to watch it about midnight, but the watchman
observed it up to half-past lon Saturday morning. It
did not seem so large as on the previous nights, but
still far exceeded the most brilliant form in which the
planet Jupiter has ever been beheld. As the greatest
comet on record is really due about this time, and 33
the extreme sultriness of the weather would seem to
warrant the belief that such a celestial visitor is near at
hand, we shall be glad to hear if any other persons have
observed the appearance which has thrice risen upon our
astonished friends."

OPENING OF THE OYSTER SEASON.

Yesterday, the " opening of the oyster season" took
place in the ordinary way at Billingsgate, at an early
hour in ale forenoon. In the unavoidable absence,
through sickness, of Mr. John Goldham, the duties of
his office were fulfilled by his brother-in-law, Mr. Charles
James Hall, who was the acting superintendent upon
the occasion. The number of boats this year did not
average more than 10—the smallest number we ever re-
member to have seen since we have recorded this annual
opening of the oyster season. The subjoined are the
prices realised, as ascertained from the books of the clerk
of the market :

Natives £2 2 0 per bushel.
Commons

Welsh 1 4 0 ditto,

Jo
Pearls 0 14 0 ditto,

There was a very brisk demand, and the cargoes
were quickly sold. r.rge quality of the whole was spe-
cially good.
At the early hour of six o'clock in the forenoon our
reporter heard the "market bell" tolling► out the opening
of the oyster season. At that hour a fleet of boats were
moored in front of the market, but they formed but a
faint representation of the triple tier we remember ten
years ago to have seen, and when not less than ten
times their number anchored in the same, or in the ad.
jacent spot. Several circumstances combined to cause
the difference, one of which is the increase in the supply
laudward, in consequence of the rapidity, convenience,
and cheapness of rail way conveyance; another is the
operation of the new law for the protection of the oyster
beds ; and, finally, the monopoly which has sprung up
in consequence of such beds haviiig- fallen into the hands
of the larger holders, the smaller men being, in a great
degree, in consequence, shut out of the market.
Perhaps, however, it may just now be unwise to make
any further remarks. We have given the prices of yes-
terday, the opening day. At another time we may say
more. It is only just to say that the whole of the duties
of the day were, in the absence of Mr. Goldham, per-
formed in the most catiafactoly ulanuer by his refire.

LIABILITY OF HOTEL KBEPEIIS.

At the Manchester Court of Record yesterday a new
trial took place in the case " Cashel' v. Wright." Mr.
Wi ight is the keeper of the Spread Eagle Hotel ; Mr.
Richard Cashel!, the plaintiff, is a starch manufacturer
at Dublin, doing business at Manchester, and usually
staying at the Spread Eagle Hotel when at Manchester.
In June, 1555 he was at Manchester, and put up at the
Spread Eagle. In the evening, when in the commercial-
rooms, he examined his receipts, which were in notes
and money, and when he went to bed he left i❑ his coat
breast pocket two crossed cheques and a 51. and 101.
note—altogether 1391. In his trousers pockets, when
he went to bed, he had four sovereigns, and upon his
dressing table he placed a ♦ery valuable gold lever
watch with massive gold chain, and a gold ring. He
did not very carefully fasten his bed reom door, and his
account next morning was that he had left it open, but
upon further reflsction he said he gave it a push meth-
cleut to faste❑ it, supposing the catch to be good. Dur-
ring the night the boots let in a man with a small paper
parcel, and then went to sleep. This man entered plain-
tiff's room and stole the watch and guard and the four
sovereigns, and was subsequently convicted of the rob-
bery, and sentenced to four years' penal servitude.
An action was brought by the plaintiff against the de-
fendant to recover the amount, 401., i❑ the Manches-
ter Court of Record, before Mr. R. B. Armstrong, re.
corder, when tile jury gave a verdict for 251.; but
a motion was made in the Queen's Bench for a new trial
on the ground of misdirection to the jury, the Recorder
having in effect told the jury that tue plaintiff was en-
titled to their verdict, unless be had in his conduct at
the hotel been guilty of gross nE gligence. Mr. Justice
Erie gave judgment in favour of a new triat, on the
ground that the directions to the jury ought to have been
that the plaintiff would be entitled to a verdict, if he
had used the caution of an ordinarily prudent person.
The ease was consequently re-tried yesterday, when the
Recorder read Mr. Justice Er'e's judgment. The jury
gave a verdict for plaintiff, damages 301. ; being Si.
more than was given by the first jury.

LATEST _NEWS.

MADRID, AUG. 3.

Tranquillity is general. The public funds are
rising rapidly. The national guard of Saragossa
have been disarmed. A new ayuntamiento and a
fresh provincial deputation have been named. In
Catalonia, the bands which had taken refuge in
the mountains are dispersing. Espartero leaves
to-morrow for Logrone. M. Luzuriaga, Minister
of Justice, is replaced by M. Igurate.

MARSEILLES, Aua. 4, 8 P.M.
The Danube has arrived, with advices from
Constantinople of the 28th of July.

The evacuation of the Allied troops will be
completed on the 15th of August, and the hos-

pitals will be given up.

The squadron of Admiral Lyons will be sta-
tioned partly at Smyrna, partly at the Pira3us,
and partly on the coast of Syria.
The steamer Caledonia has arrived from Con.

stautinople.
Marshal PeHasler has left Marseilles for Plom-

bieres.

PARIS, Auci. 5.

The Moniteur publishes the following :

The Emperor returns to St. Cloud on the 9th
inst. His Majesty has no intention of leaving
again before the 15th August. There will not,
however, bq any official receptions on the 9
Tranquillity having been restored in Spain,
the Emperor has given orders for the suspension
of all movements of troops towards the frontier.

The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post
(second edition) says :—Since the ratification of
the treaty of peace we have had many examples
on the part of Russia towards the Porte of an
ungenerous hostility, as well as positive violations
of the spirit of the treaty which Russia was evi-
dently more ready to sign than to respect. The
allies have performed their contract with the utmost
honour and fidelity. We have abandoned every
point of the Crimea as early as possible, and without
destroying at Eupatoria, or Balaklava' or Kamiesh,
even the works erected by the allies. We have left
Sebastopol without any guarantee but Russian
honour of the port being reduced to a commercial
eepot. We have left thousands of graves on Ri's-
4tn soil, and created a heavy debt at home, with-
out seeking repayment in any way from Russia.
What is the conduct, on the contrary, of our late
enemy towards Turkey; the Power we went to war
for, to defend, to cause Russia to respect ? Why,
Russia destroys every fortress in the possession of
her troops. Reni and Ismail are Vown up, and
Kars is Ltill occupied ! It is all very well to say,
these places can be rebuilt ; but where is impover-
ished Turkey to get the money to construct each
vast defective works ?

ASTOUNDING IP TRUE.

The Berlin Correspondent of a morning contemporary
says :—" It we are to believe a very circumstantial letter
from munich, Britannia's maritime power has had a very
narrow escape from the total destruction which awaited
'it had a third naval campaign been opened this year in
the Bay_of Finland. From this letter we learn that a
certain Bavarian corporal, named Bauer, who, in 1849,
made some unsuccessful experiments with a diving vessel
in Kiel harbour, has since then brought his labours to a
'successful result ; the letter which he wrote was indited
17 feet below the surface of the sea, off Cronstadt, June
'24, :end in the company of the writer, in his vessel,
were at the time a Russian naval officer, eight sailors,
and a smith. This experiment had been preceded by
eight others, for the purpose of testing the capacity of
the vessel, and it was to be succeeded in a few days by
a grander one in the presence of the Grand Duke Con-
stantine'and a committee named for the purpose. On
the occasion here alluded to the crew of n persons ye-
mained eight hours, without interruption, under water ;
and, in addition to the letter-writing feat, and the
drinking of divers bottles of Rhine wine to the health
of various European potentates, they performed during
teat time all sorts of evolutions with the vessel, moving
backwards and forwards, rising and sinking, whether
vertically or at an angle, whether rapidly or slowly, &c.
In short, the only circumstance connected with the de-
ibription that at all suggests an opening for scepticism
is, that the letter' was written by the inventor himself ;
when we have another desctiption, written by an im-
partial. person, we shall knor• better what to think about
this matter.

RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR HUDDERSFIELD STATION.
—An accident occurred on Saturday morning at the
Hillhouse engine shed, Huddersfield. The 6.25 a.m.
passenger train had just passed the engine shed when a
Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln engine started from
the shed to run into the station to be attached to a
train for Sheffield. At the same moment a luggage
train (wbich had been turned into a siding till the
passing of the 6.25 train) was • driven towards the
shed to be shunted, and the consequence was that a
buffer of each engine came into collision. One of the
liuffer, was hurled a distance of twenty yards, the
luggage engine bad its wheel tires knocked off and the
side considerably injured. The Manchester, Sheffield,
and Lincolnshire engine had the whole of its side torn
away and its tender turned upside down. Several wag-
gons were alJo inverted,. and the traffic was stopped for
three hours. Thomas HitcLen, the fireman, and John
Turner, the driver of the Manchester, Sheffield,. and
Lincolnshire -engine, were removed to the infirmary,
the latter teing much shaken and the former severely
cut. David Nichols, the pointsman, was also much
hurt by a piece of wood striking him while falling
from one of the luggage waggons. A signal was
hoisted for the luggage train to be delayed, but the
driver was prevented by the thickness of the atmo-
sphere from oatiag iti—Mancilater Gy4r4iorrit.

OPE,IVING OF THE OYSTER Sid.SON.

Yesterday, the " opening of the oyster season" took
place in the ordinary way at Billingsgate, at an early
hour in the forenoon. In the unavoidable absence,
through sickness, of Mr. John Goldham, the duties of
his office were fulfilled by his brother-in-law, Mr. Charles
James Hall, ' who was the acting superintendent upon
the occasion. The number of boats this year did not
average more than 10—the smallest number we ever re-
member to have seen since we have recorded this annual
(Typing of the oyster season. The subjoined are the
prices realised, as ascertained fzom the books of the clerk
of the market :

of the oyster season. At that hour a fleet of boats were
tinoPA: rrt et dte the

faint represent%tion of the triple tier we remember ten
years ago to have seen, and when not less than ter
times their number ;Anchored in the same, or in the ad
jacent spot. Several circumstances combined to cause
the difletence, one of which is the increaYe in the supply
landward, in consequence of the rapidity, convenience,
and cheapness of rail
Nay conveyance ; another is the
operation of the new law for thu pr,tection of the oyster-
beds ; and, Bally, the tnonopoly which has sprung 11P
in consequence of such beds having fa!len into the hands
of the larger holders, the stm.ller men being, in a great
I degree, in consequence, shut out of the market.
Perhaps, however, it may just now be unwise to make
any further remarks. We have given the prices of yes-
terday, the opening day. At another time we may Lay
more. It is only just to say that the whole of the duties
of the day were, in the absence of Mr. Geldliam, ,per-
formed in the most satisfactory manner by his repro.

By L. S. L -2 Vols.
" 'Erlesmere' belongs to the same class of novel as the stores of
Miss Young, 'the Heir of ; nor is it inferior to them
in ability, and in the exhibition of internal conflict though the inci-
dents are mere stormy. . . . There are many passages towards
the close of extraordinary force ; tragic circumstances being revealed
in momentary flashes of dramatic force."—Fress.
" Thought, and the forceful style of writing, which is said to exhibit
' power,' will be found in the work ; and there are scenes or passion,
though injured by violence."—Spectator.
'" Erleomere' is fresh, eloquent, and serious. It is nearly all
written in the form of rapid dialogue, by use of which not only a very
interesting story, but one or two good sketches of character receive
development."—Examiner.
" Far more than the average of thought, taste, and culture are to
be found in its pages ; enough of interest in the story. of cleverness
and freshness in sketching character, and of earnestness'and moral
purpose In the vrriter."—Globe.
