DEATH OF LIEUTENANT- GENERAL THOMAS
DYNELEY, C.B.—We regret to announce the death of the
above venerable Peninsular and Waterloo officer of the
Royal Artillery, who died on the 21st instant, in the 79th
year of his age. The deceased general's services com-
prised the campaign of 1805, in Italy, under General Sir
James Craig, and that in Calabria, in 1806, under General
Sir John Stuart, including the battle of Madia and the
siege of Scylla. He proceeded to the Peninsula in 1811,
serving from July that year to September, 1882, includ-
ing the siege of Ciudad Rodrigo, where he was wounded
in the head ; the siege of the forts at Salamanca, at
which he was wounded in the face ; the heights of St.
Christoval ; the battle of Salamanca ; defence of the bridge
of Simancas • affairs at Morales de Toro and San Munos ;
battles of Vittoria and the Pyrenees. He was taken prisoner
at Malanahaida, near Madrid, 1 lth August, 1812, when en-
gaged with the rear guard of Joseph Bonaparte's army. The
gallant deceased, however, managed to make his escape
from the enemy and rejoined the army on the 23d of the
same month. He served during the campaign of 1815, and
was present at the battle of Waterloo. He had,received the
silver war medal and five clasps for the PeniWa and the
medal for Waterloo. In 1838, in recognition of hi. profes-
sional services, he was nominated a Companion of the Order
of the Bath, and in February, 1857, was appointed colonel
commandant of the 7th battalion of the Royal Artillery.
The deeeased general's commissions bore date as follows :
second lieutenant, Ist December, 1801 ; lieutenant, Ist
July, 1803 ; captain, 28th May, 1808 ; major, 18th June,
1815; lieutenant-colonel, 10th January, 1837; colonel, 23d
November, 1841; major-general, 20th June, 1864; and

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(Tnis DAY.)
`Tho SPEAKER took the chair at twelve o'clock.
_ PRIVATE BUSINESS. _

The amendments of the House of Lords on the Buildings
Improvement Company Bill were agreed to.
The amendments of the House of Lords on the Dorset
Central Railway (Extension of Time) Bill were agreed to.
The Caledonian Railway (Branches to Lanark, Sm.) Bill,
was read a third time.

The Forest of Dean Central Railway Bill was discharged
from the paper.

ST. GEORGE'S. IN-THE-EAST.

Mr. KEKEWICH gave notice of his intention to ask
the hon. Home Secretary on Friday next, if he had received
any information relative to the disturbances which had re-
cently taken place at St. George's-in-the-East, and, if so,
whether he had taken any step to secure the prevention of
their recurrence in future?

LABOURERS COTTAGES (SCOTLAND) BILL.
Upon the motion of Mr. HEWITT this bill, which pro •
vides for the Improvement of the cottages of farm labourers
in Scotland, was considered and amended in committee.
BLEACHING AND DYEING WORKS BILL.

The house went into committee on this bill.
An amendment on the first clause, excluding its operation
from the open air linen bleaching works in Ireland and
Scotland, having been mewed,
Mr. CROOK opposed the amendment, contending that
such a bill as this was shown by the evidence before the
house on this matter, to be necessary in these bleaching
establishments as well as elsewhere.
Mr. PEEL DAWSON supported the amendment, on the
ground that the situation of the bleach works in Ireland
was extremely beastly. He contended that it would be
very injurious to force this act on the Irish dyers, as the
works were there set in operation by means of water wheels
and to enact that they should only be in operation at certain
times, would close them entirely, as the manufacturers
were obliged to work their machinery when the water could
be made available. He also pointed out that much of
the work was performed in the open air, and was of a very
healthy character.
Sir H. CAIRNS supported the amendment, pointing
out that it only effected linen bleach works, the employ-
ment in which was clearly shown by the evidence
given before the committee of the house to be
of a healthy character. Moreover the operatives
had petitioned the house not to interfere. The
effect of this bill if extended to these open air works
would be to force the works to be carried on in
the morning when there was no sun which was absolutely
necessary to open air bleaching, and then close them when the
sun was shining. It was a great advantage to the bleach
work that they should bo worked by water power, which
was paid for highly, and that being so must be made
available at such times as it was _paasibla, it was unlike
steam power which would be put in operation by the light-
ing of the fire at any moment, in this respect also the re-
striction as to time would be injurious. He also pointed
out that, the works in which boys and females were em-
ployed was of a very light character, and far more suit-
able to them than other kinds of labour, and if this
bill were allowed to pass in the present form, these boys
and women would be discharged, and their places supplied
by fewer men, and thus the children would have to go to
work of a more laborious character, and far less suitable for
them.

Sir G. C. LE WIS thought the amendment a fair one,
and in fact in accordance with the object of the bill, which
was not intended, as it appeared to him, to affect open air
works. He should support the amendment.
[LEFT SITTING.]

LAW INTELLIGENVE,-(THIS DAY.)

ROLLS COURT.
(Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.)
JUDGMENT-AITKINSION V. HICKS.

The question raised in this suit was whether the legacy
of £3,420, given by the will of the testator, the late Mr.
Cox, to the plaintiff, his niece and executrix, was an abso-
lute gift for her sole and separate use, not subject to any
conditions or control of his trustees, or whether it formed
part of his personal or residuary estate.

His Honour the Master of the Rolls was of opinion that
it was a special legacy given by the testator to the plaintiff,
his niece, for her solo and separate use, and formed no part
of his personal estate, and decreed accordingly. Costs of
all parties out of the estate.

TILE WAR WITH CHINA.

(From the Gazette of last Evening.)

At the Court at Buckingham Palace, tho 7th day of
March, 1860—Present, the Queen's Most Excellent Ma-
jetty in Council.

Whereas, in the event of hostilities commencing between 1
her Majesty and her august ally the Emperor of the
French on the one hand, and the Emperor of China on the
other hand, it is the intention and desire of her Majesty,
and of his Majesty the Emperor of the French, to act
during such hostilities in strict conformity with the decla-
ration respecting maritime law, signed by the plenipoten-
tiaries of Great Britain, Austria, France, Prussia, Russia,
Sardinia, and Turkey, assembled in Congress at Paris, and
dated April 16, 1856; and whereas her Majesty is willing to
extend the benefits of the said Declaration of Paris to all
Powers which may be neutral in the said hostilities.
Now her Majesty is pleased, by and with the advice of
her Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, that so
far as regards the ships of any neutral Power, the flag of
any such Power shall cover the enemy's goods, with the ex-
ception of contraband of war ; so that no goods of enemies
found on board any ship belonging to the subjects of such
neutral Power, or to those inhabiting within the dominions
of any such Power, and duly entitled to use the flag of
such Power, shall be subject to capture or condemnation
by reason only of such goods being enemies' goods; all
other liabilities to capture and condemnation, respectively,
of enemies goods and neutral ships being reserved and
remaining in all respects as before the Declaration of the
said Congress at Paris, of the 16th April, 1856.
And it is hereby further ordered, that neutral goods,
with the exception of contraband of war, shall not be liable
to capture under the enemy's flag, by reason only of said
goods being under the enemy's flag ; all other liabilities
to capture and condemnation of neutral goods being re-
served, and remaining in all respects before the Declara-
tion of the said Congress at Faris of the 16th A.pril, 1856 :
Provided always, and it is hereby ordered, tskt nothing
herein contained shall be applicable to, or shall be construed,
deemed, or taken, so as to operate or apply to, or in favour of
any person, ship, or goods whatsoever, which may be cap-
tured for breaking or attempting to break, or which may be
lawfully adjudged to have broken or attempted to break, any
blockade maintained by a force sufficient really to prevent
access to the coast of the enemy; but that all such persons,
ships, and goods, may be duly taken cognisance of, pro-
ceeded upon, adjudicated, dealt with, and treated, in all re-
spects and to all purposes according to the course of Admi-
ralty and the law of nations, as if this order had never been
mado, anything hereinbefore to the contrary in anywise
notwithstanding.
And it is further ordered that, notwithstanding the exist-
ence of hostilities between her Majesty and her august ally
on the one hand, and the Emperor of China on the other

TRE WRECK OF THE MALABAR.

(PROM SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT OF THE TIMES.)

GALLE, MAY 26.

For some w ks past the heat in Ceylon has been
quite unprecedented. The teeming and luxuriant
vegetation was burnt and brown, the grass was
withered, the wells dry, and but a small supply of
brackish water could be procured for man or beast.
The atmosphere, close, dank, and steamy, presaged
the approach of the south-west monsoon, due on the
12th of May. At length, on the evening of Sunday,
the 20th, it burst with great fury, and with a per-
, feet cataract of rain. The Simla, with Lord Elgin
and Baron Gros on board, was approaching the
island at nightfall, but her prudent and vigilant
commander, Captain Patterson, determined to incur
no risks. He could not run for the light on such
a night, so he kept her course well to the south-
ward, and on Monday morning, amidst driving rain
and furious Fqualls, he brought her off the harbour.
A Cingalese canoe will live in any weather, and a
pilot was soon on board, who at 11 a.m. brought
the ship safely to anchor.
At noon Lord Elgin and Baron Gros landed,
under salutes from the battery, on a visit to Sir
Henry Ward, who had arrived from Colombo to
receive them. Some 200 yards within the moorings
of the Simla lay the Malabar, on board which boat
we were next day to embark for China. Both vessels
were announced to start at noon, but so great was
the swell that the specie and cargo' could only be
trans-shipped with much difficulty. The Malabar's
departure was therefore postporubd until 2 p.m.
The morning of Tuesday broke dark, murky, and
threatening. Heavy masses of cloud were drifting
up from the south-west, and soon after daylight the
squalls became most violent, accompanied by a
deluge of rain. Only those who have witnessed the
first burst of the monsoon can form an idea of its
terrible force. The wind blows in frightful gusts
and in bouquets of squalls. Then comes a lull. The
tempest takes breath—reculer pour niieux sautes.
After each of these intervals the squalls increase in

were nevermore worthily represented than by their
two ambassadors, who set an example to every
one. The panic is but of short duration. Thu cowards
i are shamed by the quiet courage of the chiefs.
25 minutes have elapsed, and Mr. Bailey, the Penin-
sular and Oriental agent, with Mr. Janty, the act-
ing harbour-master, comes on boArd, and now the
steam is up, the chief engineer having poured gal-
lon after gallon of oil on the coals to quicken their
action. A rumour is spread that the captain is going
out to sea. In truth, that was his first idea. The
vessel is provided with powerful pumps, which can
only be worked when the engines are going. There
is no room in the harbour to steam ahead, and the
captain trusts he can keep her afloat outside with the
pumps, and so save ship and cargo. All hope is
soon destroyed by the fearful rapidity with which
the water rises. The chief engineer rushes on deck.
" In the name of God, captain, don't proceed to sea ;
we are in a sinking state. Beach her at once.'
But the rumour gains ground, and some of the
pn.sengers pester Lord Elgin with vain requests :
" Will not your lordship order the boats to be low-
ered ?" " Will you not protest against going to
sea ?" " Will you not speak to the captain ?" Lord
Elgin steadily refuses to interfere with the captiiin
in the discharge of his duty, but sends Col. Crealock
with a message—" Lord Elgin presents his compli-
ments and wishes to know if you are going to sea.'
" Going to sea ! we are going down." And so we
are, and that visibly. Still not a boat alongside, the
cargo boats having disappeared after the first bump.
The quartermasters are at the helm, which they have
never quitted during the wildest confusion. " Heave
at the anchor." " Cheerily, men, cheerily." They
work with a will, and, God be thanked, at the first
revolution of the engines the screw drives her ahead.
The bilge injection is set to work, but the water
gains rapidly. It is up to her stern ports, The
saloon and cabins are full. She is sinking fast. Will
she live across the bay and reach the sandy beach ?
Mr. Loch, Lord Elgin's private secretary, served in
the navy in early life. He goes to the captain, and
asks leave to prepare one of the quarter boats for
lowering, so that if we sink in crossing there may
be a chance of saving the women. Permission is
readily granted, and Mr, Loch, Col. Crealock, and a
few others soon have the boat ready for launching.
Now we are off. The stern sinks lower and lower.

luteuatr.y, arra the rain anscend. as thvujitt th.
whole Heavens were opened into one sluice. The
thunder bellows, peal after peal, and the lightning
is blindingly vivid. Such a morning was that of
the 22d when the Simla and Malabar lay side by
side in the open roadstead facetiously called Galle
harbour.

Shortly before noon a salute from the batteries
announced the departure of Sir Hugh Rose, who
had arrived in the Malabar from Bombay, and who
embarked in the Simla for Calcutta, to relieve Lord
Clyde as Commander-in-Chief. Nearly all the Mala-
bar's passengers had spent the night on shore, for the
noise and confusion attending the loading rendered
the vessel but a sorry place for sleep. Soaked to
the skin, they reached the boat between 12 and 1
o'clock. The fife was heard on board the Simla.
Her anchor was soon hove up, and we gave three
ringing cheers for the noble ship which had brought
us so many thousand miles, as in gallant style
she steamed out of harbour against the full force of
the storm. Taking time by the forelock, the two
Ambassadors quitted the jetty soon after 1, and 38
guns saluted the Plenipotentiaries of England and
France. The Malabar had now received all her
passengers. Several lighters, with cargo from the
Simla, still remained tumbling and bumping along-
side, and it was clear that we could not start before
3 or 4 o'clock. The fires were lighted at half-past 1,
but the steam was not hurried. Meanwhile the
squalls increased in violence and frequency, and a
very heavy swell rolled into the bay. In order to
explain the accident which produced such disas-
trous results, I must give you a sketch of the so.
called harbour of Galle.

Galle harbour is formed by a bay, or inlet, about
three miles wide at the mouth and about a mile and
a half deep. The land runs out on the east, and
would effectually protect ships anchored under its
lee from north-east gales. But this portion of the
bay is during the south-west monsoon exposed to
the full force of the surf and swell. About half-way
up the inlet stands " Watering-point," where the
land juts in at a sharp angle. Thence to the Point
de Galle fort is a distance of a mile and a quarter.
Between the two lie reefs and large rocks, affording
a slight and inefficient protection against the
southerly gales. Inside, on the west, is the anchor-
age ground. It contains exactly 56 acres, with
moorings for three steamers. Should a fourth un-
expectedly arrive, she must wait in the roads until
a berth be vacant. The anchorage is fringed with
reefs and rocks on every side. North, south, east,
and west are enormous boulders, over which the
surf dashes high into the air, or more dangerous
hidden reefs. Some are revealed by the.broak of the
swell, while others are 10 to 16 feet under water,
and give no sign of their existence. To the south
west angle of, and about 300 yards beyond, the an-
chorage ground lies the Beluvaka or Hospital reef.
It is some 700 feet long, and 150 wide, the depth of
water varying from four feet in the centre to 18 on
the tail. The rocks are coral, sharp and pointed.
It was on this reef we struck.

The " China berth" is at the south-west angle of
the anchorage. There lay the Malabar, an iron-built
ship of 1,080 tons, and just two years old. She was
built in five compartments, two abaft and two be-
fore the engine, which formed the fifth. She was
anchored, her head nearly south, with one best
bower 30-cwt. anchor. Astern was the usual moor-
ing anchor, with a 10-inch hawser. Her draught
of water was 15 feet 6 inches aft, and 13 feet 6
inches forward. She arrived from Bombay at 10
a.m. on Sunday, and was moored in her berth by
one of the regular pilots, Daviot by name. This
pilot was on board on the 22d, for the purpose of
taking the ship out of harbour.

" Keep your eye on that mast," quietly remarks an
old sailor tome; "I don't expect we shall get across,
and if we sink it may be above water." At length
we reach the sand. Let go the anchors. She swings,
and the order is given to go astern ; but at the first
revolution the engines are brought up standing.
The broken hawser is round the screw I Had it
twisted the other way, we could never have gone
ahead. We veer cable, and she is quietly beached
on the sand, stern first. It is high time. A little
longer and the water is in the engine-room. The
ship's boats are now lowered. So great is the swell
that to lie alongside is a work of danger. There aro
some 20 vessels in port, but two only send boats. The
first (English) is swamped in the heavy surf. The
other (French) gets under the ladder and fills, but the
men are active, and quickly bale her out. Both have
their skippers on board. Let their names be recorded,
for well they deserve it. The Englishman is Peter
Upton, commanding the barque Waverley, of New-
Castle. The Frenchman is Ch. Messemaccher, Capi-
taine au Long Cours, and his ship is the Paul
Auguste, of Dunkirk. Lord Elgin and Baron Gros
despatched Mr. Loch and the Comte de Bastard to
thank them in the name of their respective Govern-
ments, and sure UM I that all England will second
that vote of thanks. But we must return to the
wreck, where all is prepared for saving the women.
During the whole scene, midst the wildest excite-
ment, the ladies behave most nobly. No shriek is
heard, and, though a few tears are shed, there is
neither confusion nor dismay. To get them into
the boats is no easy matter, but happily it is con-
cluded without accident, one boat receiving them
on the starboard, another on the pert quarter.
Push off, land there quickly, and return to the ship.
But here are two men on the starboard gangway
attempting to escape in the women's boat, which is
full enough already. The officer on duty pushes
them back, but they are not to be repulsed. They
slip past him, and leap—the first for the stern,
where he tumbles among the ladies and nearly cap-
sizes the boat ; the second for the bow, which he
misses, and takes a header right into the water.
There I should have left him, but the sailors are
more compassionate, and haul him in, quite drenched
and half killed with fright. Neither of these men
is English or French—the first is an American
skipper, the second a Dutch engineer. And now
boats arrive from the shore, and the Governor's
barge is among them. But Lord Elgin will not
quit the vessel until every passenger is saved. One
after another he sees them over the side, and at
length steps into the barge with Baron Gros, the
attaches of the two embassies, and the writer of
this letter. We look at the stern, which is all but
level with the water, and cease to wonder at the
narrow escape of Mr. Giffard, one of the passen-
gers. He went to his cabin to recover something
for his wife. A sea dashed through the port, filled
the cabin, closed the door, and but for the venetian
blinds which give egress for the water into the saloon
he would have been drowned like a rat in a hole.
We pull for the jetty, where the ambassadors land,
sorely shorn of their glory, but having shown under
the most trying circumstances a rare example of
courage and steadfastness.
And now we begin to look about us, and ascertain
our loss. Except the few things which were taken
on shore the previous night, all is in the hold, and
cannot be reached. Both Lord Elgin and Baron
Gros have lost their credentials, their instructions,
and all their more important papers. Lord Elgin's
Orders of the Thistle and the Bath lie " full fathom
five." Baron Gros is minus a very considerable
sum he took out in speeie for the expenses of his
mission, and a large service of plate. Two newly-
married couples have lost their t 7 osseaux, their pre-
sents, and the home reminiscences given to the ladies
before starting on their distant journey. But one
portmanteau has been saved by either. As for
mysel!, I got wet through going on board in a
squall; and, finding every particle of my luggage
thrust into the hold, I borrowed a dry shirt and
trousers of a friend, who afterwards had the satis-
faction of seeing ine saved in his garments. My
kit for joining the army in China would have de-
lighted the soul of Sir Charles Napier, and gained
the approval of Lord Clyde. it consists of a tooth-
brush, comb, shirt collar, and shoehorn. I have
not even saved the piece of soap. All the rest
—books and papers, letters and maps, woollens and
linens, waterproofs and bedding, have gone to the
bottom. And now a few words on a subject which
causes great complaint, the treatment of passengers'
luggage in the Peninsular and Oriental boats. A
rule exists, that during the mazy transhipments
occurring between England and China, luggage
marked " Cabin" shall be taken to the cabin, while
the remainder goes down to the hold. An officer
on board each ship is charged with the duty of see-
ing this rule carried Atte execution. But, like
many other excellent regulations, it exists only on
paper, and is utterly disregarded in practice. Not
one single article marked " Cabin" reached its pro-
per destination on board the Malabfir last Tuesday.
Everything was bundled down the hold, and when
the ladies came off drenched to the skin they had
no means of procuring a change of dress. 'I he
few articles which the passengers took ashore from
the Simla were saved, as saloon and cabins were
accessible for some time. Had due regard been
paid to this rule, Lord Elgin would have preserved
his credentials, his instructions, and his decorations;
which were all in a box properly marked. Had
proper respect been paid to the orders of Mr.
Bailey, the Peninsular and Oriental agent, super-
added to the rule, 'your correspondent would have
saved his letters and papers together with much
II valuable property.
In excuse for this negligence it is stated that 24
hours only are allowed at Galle by the Admiralty
agent for transhipment of mails, bullion, and cargo,
and this in the frightful weather of last Tuesday.
The officers are therefore only too glad to get the
luggage on board and arrange it after star The
But such an excuse is utterly unavailing. M
China luggage was placed on the Simla:sdtechaku24

hours before our arrival. What morn easy

About half-past two o'clock the Malabar's com-
mander, Captain Grainger, goes to his cabin for a
change of clothes. He is hardly there when, sud-
denly and without a moment's notice, comes a
terrific squall from the north-east. It sweeps across
the bay, and strikes the Malabar on her port side
causing her to heel completely over, The mosring
hawser snaps, and she swings round head to wind,
completely reversing her former position. Then
comes a shock which shakes the vessel from stem
to stern ; a second, which brings the saloon sky-
light crashing into the cabin. Again, again, again,
and lamp after lamp is shivered to pieces. We are
on the reef, and the rocks are smashing in our plates
ono after another. Captain Grainger is on th•
bridge—the engineer at his post, but the steam is
not up, and the ship crashes and crunches with
every swell. The pumps are sounded, and give
three feet and a half water in the after compart-
ment. Five minutes later and five feet are an.
flounced. Our position is most critical ; not a boat
alongside—not one of the ship's boats ready for
launching. Before us is the bay with its roaring
swell ; behind, at 400 yards distance, the fort,
with the sea dashing over the rocks which jut into
the water, and breaking in tremendous spray
right against the parapet wall. The wind still
keeps from the north ; if it does not shift, but a
few minutes and all will be over. Hold on by the
anchor—let it drag but six feet and the engine
compartment will be smashed to pieces. Let those
heavy engines descend with all their weight on these
pointed rocks, and our vessel must split in two. A
double danger then awaits us. We shall be blown
into the air by collapse of the boilers, or down we
shall go among the sharks and the breakers. The
anchor holds. The squall abates, the wind goes
back to the south. She swings clear of the reef. But
now commences a new peril. The after compartments
are filling fast, and she is visibly settling by the
stern. The water rushes into the tunnel and indi-
cates seven feet in the hold. Unless steam be got
up, down she must go, stern first, in a very few
minutes. A panic seizes some—happily but a few—
of the passengers. A rush is made to the boats. If
they be launched, the Lascar crew will refuse to
work, and in the general rush they will be sunk or
stove in. Quietly seated on the poop, Lord Elgin is
conversing with his usual tranquillity. Some few
days before our arrival he remarked to me that
Galle was an unpropitious place for him, as there
he first heard the news of the Indian mutiny in
1857. " Absit omen" was my reply ; but in the
very height of the crash, amid the howling wind
and the kissing sea, he asks if I remember what he
told me about Galle. Baron Gros nobly seconds his
colleague. He is cool and collected as though walk-
ing on the Boulevards, and England and France
