SEA OP AZOF:-

;Captain Sherard Ozborn, R.N., in writing to a con.
temporary, says :
"It appears to me so important that the Russians
should not succeed in misleading us by giving false or in-
terested information about a part of the world we may
perhaps have again to visit as belligerents, that at the
risk of it being thought highly improper I beg to correct
)ne part of your correspondent's news from the Crimea.
," He says, quoting from Major Haminersley, Captain
Brooke, or. Mr. Sinclair, that there are no wells on Ara.
oat Spit, simply because they are not wanted, the Sea

ofAzef.ia its neighbourhood being perfectly drinkable.
Now I assert that there are wells on Arabat Spit, that
'they exist on about the spotis marked in the large RUP-
isian maps, and that the
_water .in them is drinkable,
Whereas that of the Sea, of Azof. from Genitchi along
die Spit .as far as Point Kayantiss, is salt, and
unfit for man ur beast, The only
,part of the Sea
Azof Where fresh water is procurable from the
,zurface of the sea, after the sea breaks up, is in the
Gulf of Azo'f, and that above the Krivaia or Crooked
Spit, in the upper part of the Oukliout Liman, and,
lastly, at the edge of the Delta of the river Kuban, and
tliat only in places.- These are facts which all the offi-
cers, French as wail as English, can attest who served
in the Sea of Azof. Evidently from hearsay, the Eng
!ish officers are impressed with the idea that there is a
tine 9 feet channel from Tchongar bridge to Genitchi,
u,d a constant current miring from Genitchi to Pere-
kop.

Now ready, with NtaP, price 35.,

THE EUPHRATES VALLEY ROUTE TO
INDIA..
By a TRAVELLER.
Dedicated to W. P. Andrew, Esq., Chairman of the chide and-
Euphrates Railway Companies..

"After the very able work of Mr. W. P. Andrew, in advocacy of
the huphrates Route to India, any further publication of opinions in
support thereof mie.ht almost have been considered an act of supere-
r,gation, but we have much pleasure in noticing an anonymous
writer, whose views give full corroboration to those recently enunci-
ated by Mr. Andrew. The object of the write-, who has evidently
given great attention to the subject, and possesses a vast L;niiiviedge
of the requirements of India, is to prove the practicabiliry of the
opinions set forth by General Chesney for the junction of the Medi-
terranean and the Persian Gulf via the valley of the river Euphrates."

"The works between Andover and Salisbury are fast
progressing towards completion, and it is intended.to open
that line throughout to Salisbury in the month of March,
1'57. The Royal Agricultural Society have resolved to
hold their next annual meeting at Salisbury in July,
1837, On an assurance to this effect.

" In May last the company launched their second new
steamer, the Havre, the cost of whieli it is proposed to
liqu' date by instalments out of revenue. The present half-
year's revenue has not been charged with any such instal-
ment, but it has borne 5,000'. and upwards of the balance
standing to the charge of the Alliance—the remainder of
that balance having been supplied by the sale of disused
♦essels. By means of •these two splendid steamers, the
traffic between Southampton and Havre is now being most
satisfactorily carried on, both as regards economy and
speed. The passage by sea is reduced to an average of about
eight hours and a quarter, and tho through journey be-
tween London and Paris by that rodte has lately been per-
formed in 16 hours.

"It has become necessary at the present time to call the
attention of the proprietors to the unpaid share capital of
the company.
"The item in the annexed account capital uncalled,
404,0101. 6s. Bd.,' consists of shares which have from time
to time fallen into, or been left in the hands of the corn
pany, and on which nothing has been paid. The company's
powers for borrowing for general purposes are exhausted,
whilst the completion of the lino from Andover to Salis-
bury, the enlargement of the Nine Elms station, autho-
rised in 1855, and (if the present increase of traffic con-
tinues) the provision of additional rolling stock, and the
outlay required for additional station accommodation and
sidings, will in the next two years call for a considerable
expenditure on capital account. The powers acquired by
the company in their recent acts are such as authorise the
disposal of this unpaid share capital in almost any form
(Loewe' most favourable for the company's interests. After
giving the subject muei consideration, the directors re-
commend that of this capital an amount sufficient to give
the present registered proprietors of the ordinary stock of
the company 5 per cent, on the amount of their respective
holdings, shall he distributed amongst them at par, on the
following terms and conditions, viz. :-
25 per cent., or one-fourth, to be paid down on distribution,
25 per cent., or one•fourtb, „ on January 1, 1857,
25 per cent., or one-fourth, July 1, 1857,-
25 per cont., or one-fourth, January 1, 1858,
to bear dividend according to the amounts paid and time of
payment. Under this arrangement each proprietor holdiqg
1,0001. will hafe au:allotment oflso/., upon which he will
pay down 121. 10s., and subsequently the 37/. Us. at ih 3
dates above mentioned, which will make the instalments
easy, and not likely to cause any, diniinution of dividend.
All larger or smaller holders will take 'benefit in the same
proportion, but it is suggested that no fractional part of a
pound should be allotted.

30110YAL GARDENS, CREMORNE.-
Ult, THIS DAY (Thursday, July I), the great night of the sea-on,
for the BENEFIT of T. B. SIMPSON, Proprietor. On this occa-
sion every effort will be made to render this Festival one of a most
attractive character, and it is hoped the extensive Programme will
be such as to warrant general sAtisiaction. In addition to the list of
amusements already published the Beneflciaire has added a Graod
Balloon Ascent, which will take place at 6 in the evening. Admission
this day 2s. 6d. each. The Free List entirely suspended.

:‘ With respect to the former my doubts are based
upon two facts :
" 1. If such a channel exists, why did not the Russians
convey the provision, corn, and store lighters, which we
found them unloading at Genitchi, up to the bridge,
instead of disembarking the stores, and using waggons
and arabas t) convey them by land over that very bridge
by a road which nearly doubled the distance ? To get
tuose lighters and small craft into Genitchi harbour they
had to pass a bar, whereon was never found more than
'q feet, and often as little as 411. Gin. When that dif-
iieulty was surmounted, surely ascending a 9ft. channel
would have been easy work.

"2. I, with two intelligent officers and eight seamen,
speht two days and nights trying to. find a channel out
of the wide marshes., improperly marked Putrid Sea,
into ,thanarrow part over which the bridge of Tchongar
is thrown. We landed on tha_Tchongar peninsula, and
stood within a few feet of their road.; yet the deepest
water we eves' found in any part of that sea was 4ft. Gin,,
and for miles it was quite as much as we could do to
get our light boats _through seaweed and slime. I be-
lieve there is 7ft. or 9ft. cf water under the centre of the
bridge, but there is either a bar or a most tortuous
lhannel between it and Genitchi. That there is a space
4f water between the peninsula of Tchongar (at its
northern part), and a point three Miles west of Genitchi,
few who have ilooked at it from a ship's masthead can
doubt; and, indeed, we often saw Russian boats tra-
versing it. With respect to the current always setting
into the Sivash or Putrid Sea, we found it vary very
luchi anl.d9gend Jnainiy.upou..,the . direction. of the
-wind-;, An east wind would cause the water to flow into
it from the Sea of Azoff, and 'raise the depth about two
feat upon the bar ; whereas, with the lightest air from
the westward, the current immediately turned and the
waters fell.

" No dividend will he paid on any instalment in arrear,
and interest at. 51. per cent. per annum will be charged on
arrears. Any allottee desirous to prepay these instalments
and consolidate his stock at once, will be privileged to do
so by paying 6 per cent. interest on all the calls, from the.
let of July, 1'856, to the day of payment. This will en-
title the holder thereof to the fell dividends on the whole
amount.

applicable for trust investments and settlements, and easily

"in the southern portion of the Sivash, the wind, blow-
ing from eastward, heaped the water up as it were on
the western shore, and vice versa, the difference of depth
at such times between the two casts being, according to
Tartar accounts, nearly two feet ; a point difficult to de-
termine, for the bottom of the Sivash slopes very gradu-
ally towards the centre; although, as your correspondent
observes, the Crimean coast is everywhere abrupt, being,
indeed, the vertical edge of a steppe.
"I will trespass no further upon your space than to ex-
press my regret that your correspondent, much more
British officers, should have lent themselves to farther
the propagation of Russian fictions, by asserting that the
sluadron under the late Captain Lyons did little or no
damage to Arabat Fort. It was, as fir as my memory
serves me, silenced, the magazine blown up, and had not
the allied squadron more important work to do at Ge-
nitchi or Taganrog, the place would have been sum-
moned ; and I believe it had but to be summoned to
surrender. Although having no men to spare, General
VVrangel's 13,000 men would have forced us to be rapid
in our movements, and perhaps given the enemy a better
victory than that of Arabat, all we can pray is that they
may never win a better one.

unnecessary to offer further remarks thereon.
" Three new engines have been constructed out of Fork-

the others take the places of two engines which were unfit
for service, and consequently broken up.
" Eight first-class carriages, constructed out of working

available for the summer traffic ; and these, in addition to
the vehicles iu course of construction, aro essential for the

SPEECH BY MAJOR-GENERAL WIN

HAM, C.B.

A congratulatory address was presented, and a public
,breakfast given, to the above distinguished officer, at
Leamington, on Tuesday, when

" At recent meetings discussions have arisen as to the
liability of the company to double the Southampton and
Dorchester line, provided the Board of Trade should so re-
quire. In the course of the present year memorials, nume-
rously and influentially supported, have been presented to
that board, praying their interference, which have led to
several communications between the Directors and the
Board of Trade. After giving their best attention to the
subject, the directors have thought it advisable to under-
take the doubling of 20 miles of this line during the ensuing
twelve months.

" The Staines and Wokingham line was opened for traffic
on the 4th of June, as far as Ascot, and on the 9th of July
to Reading, and bids fair to become an important feeder to
the Windsor line. The line is workedby this company, under
temporarya arrangement between the two companies,
until the requirements of the traffic are more fully de-
veloped, when it is proposed that a permanent working
agreement should be concluded.
"The branch line from Dorchester to Weymouth is now
nearly completed, and will shortly be opened for traffic. It
will be completed with the mixed gauge, and this company
has the right to work their trains over it to the town of
Weyruoutb. This company, pursuant to the provisions of
the act as to the mixed gauge, have also laid down an addi-
tional single rail for a distance of 8 miles from Dorchester
towards Wareham, to accommodate the broad-gauge traffic.
"The legislation of the present session of Parliament has
been very important as respects this company's interests.
" The Exeter Extension Bill has passed into a law, and
the directors have satisfaction in adding that not a single
clause has been inserted, nor arrangement enforced with
any landowner or other local interest, of an onerous charac-
ter. The proprietors, therefore, may justly feel that the
works will be executed (and especially as regards the pecu-
liar privileges accorded last year respecting the capital),
under circumstances much more free from objection than
usual. _

General WINDHAM said—Ledies,and gentlemen, this is
the second great compliment that I have reclived at the
hands of my friends, the inhabitints of Leamington.'
The first was a spontaneous burst of good feeling on my
arrival. This, which i 3 more elaborate and more ma-.
tared, is, I am happy to gay, more honourable to me ;
and I think, as it is not only addressed to m yself but to
the army, it is more honourable to you. Before I pro-
ceed to touch upon any part of the service.that Per .the
army performed in the Crimea, I wish to thank the
cernmittee of management for having elloqen to give; as
an entertainment, a breakfast instead of a dinner. The
choice of this entertainment allowed us to have the plea-
sure of the company of a great many of the ladies,
and a vast portion of the beauty and youth of Leaming-
ton ; and I am perfectly certain that I speak- the senti-
ments, not only of myself, but of every soldier here
present, that the committee could not have selected a
better method of showing respect to me or them. If I
were of a suspicious nature, I might perhaps conclude
that so many young ladies did not come here to look at
a married man turned forty, but that they came here
exhibiting their eyes to my gallant aide•de-camp, Cap-
tain Earle, and my young friend Lieut. Musgrave, and
other gallant young heroes assembled at this table.
(Laughter.) Let me add, also, if my suspicions be cor-
rect, that they could not show a juster or more proper
compliment to the young officers of the army who served
so ardently and well, whom fortune has not permitted
to attain the same benefits which I have reaped, but
whose services were just as dangerous for 'them to per.
form as ever mine were to me. (Loud cheer..) There
are scores of regimental officers that I am aequaine,el
with whose services, I am perfectly convinced, were
quite equal to mine, simply with this difference, that, I
was an older officer, and, therefore, had more men
under me. I served chiefly' on • the Staff, but I had'
also a good deal of duty to perform in the ,trenches,
and, therefore, know remarkably well the, difference of
the two services. I . do think that those officers who
went through the whole campaign in the. :reechoes of
Sebastopol deserve the thanks of every individual in this
cduntry. It is all mighty fine to canter (Liven to the
trenches for a few minutes, as I did before I was made
a brigadier-general. It is very well to expose , oneself
to sudden danger, which is soon over and soon forgotten ;
but it is a different thing to go day after day, night after •
night, through dirt, wet, misery, destitute of c?mfort,
yet always to have sufficient moral force to say that, be-
cause it is my duty, I will not give in. (Cheers;)` That
is precisely what the unnoticed regimental officers did
during the seige of Sebastopol. I am sure there is no-
body at this table who would`not have thought I should
have been the last man to receive such an address, and
to have met with such a reception as I have experienced
an WS 0CC592014 -,-.11-ad my old friend and late commas=
der, Sir George Cathcart, been pointed out as the man
to have stood here, to receive the applause of hundreds
—[A voice : Of thousands]—no one would have been
surprised. His general character as a soldier, his pre-
vious services were so well known, that nothing would
have been more likely ; but that I, a humble individual,
who has received, certainly, his friendly shake of the
nand and his desire for my advancement, but that of no
one else—l say that, perhaps, the last man in Vac whole
British army that any one would have selected to be
honoured by such a reception would have been myself.
(Cheers.) There were a vast number of other officers
connected with this locality whom one might have sup-
posed to be infinitely more likely than myself to have
stood here. There were the Adamses, the Shirley's—
men of my own standing—the Shuckburghs, the Somer-
villes, and other young men, many of whom, I am sorry
to say, it has pleased Providence to remove ; but I may
thank God for a most remarkable interposition. I landed
in the Crimea on the 14th of September, 1854. I was pre-
sent at Alma, where I had nothing to do. I was present
at Balaklava, where I bad almo,t as little to do. I was
present at the attack of the 26th of October, where
again I had nothing to do ; and, lastly, I came
down to the battleof Inkerman, where I had a gooddeal
to do. (Laughter.) And I hope that, as I received the
approbation of those placed above me for doing my duty,
I did that duty well. The Fourth Division lost all its
generals, killed or wounded ; 740 men and officers were
killed, out of 2,200; and I, unfortunately, had to write
my own despatch, and, perhaps, was fool enough not to
make the best of it. However, it is a great loss for an
officer to lose a general on such an occasion. It passed on,
however, and I went through the siege doing my duty,
not having really anything to perform more than other
people, until I came to the attack upon the Redan. I
should wish you all distinctly to understand, that I was
no volunteer for that assault. I was ordered to do it,
and I did no more than I was ordered to do. I led the
Second Division, but the Light Division led the attack.
I have seen constantly in the papers that I absolutely
led the whole assault. I did not, and I wish my country-
men to know it. I never was a man that asked for false
honours. (Cheers.) A•brave and gallant iran—a War-
wickshire man, moreover—tossed up with me for the
choice of lead. That man was Col. Unett—the son of old
Mr. Unett, of Birmingham. He won the toss, and chose
the lead. I have nothing to say but that I had: not the
choice, and I will even go so far as to say that I do not
know that I should have chosen the lead, even if I could.
(Laughter.) One thing is quite clear, however, that I
did not lead it. Col. Unett was displaced in the morn-
ing by Geu. Shirley, who came to take the command of
the brigade, and I belieVe the lead ultimately fell to
Major Welsford, of the 97th, and to Colonel Handcock.
These gallant officers fell, and though the Light Division
that led us went on gallantly, one thing is certain, that
if those two officers had not fallen, the men might
have rushed into the battery, and the whole thing have
been altered, but as no one can control his life, so no offi-
cer, however brave, can control a stubborn fight of that
kind. Col. Unett was badly wounded in the attack. He
shook hands with me on the ground. After he was
drawn 1,500 yards from the Redan he was struck again
through the back with a shell and killed. As far
as regards my own business in the assault, I followed
close upon the Light Division, entered the battery, did ,
all that I could to get things into a proper form, and I
am happy to say that my exertions met with the appro-
val of that respected officer and Commander•in-Chief,
Sir James Simpson. I also met the approval of my
gallant friends, Lieut.-General Markham and Sir Wm.
Codrington, As all those officers have thought proper
to give me due thanks for what I did, I think you will
excuse me troubling you further upon the subject.
Often as I have looked over the bloody list of all the
separate parties of those who were cut off—the leaders
being absolutely killed, with the exception of Colonel
Lysons (of the 23d), Colonel Maude (of the 3d Buffs),
both of whom gallantly went on and were wounded, and
Major Lewis—l say that, when I look over that list, I
congratulate myself on having escaped. Though that
day was a heavy day for many, it was a fine day for me ;
for it brought me before the notice of a favourable pub-
lic nod well-feeling a-my. (Cheers ) Her Majesty
deigned to make me a Major-General. That gave me
the command of the fourth division ; ands lastly, with.
out any application of my own, I was made Chief of the
Staff. (Cheers.) Why her Majesty should have chosen
me for the Chief of the Staff I am not competent to say.
All I can say is, that I never asked for the appointment,
nor should I have taken it unless Sir William Codring-
ton had especially a-ked me to do se. I have known
that officer for many years, and if a man who has served
under him may t e al • ved to make a remark concerning
him, I would plainly sly that I thoroughly respect him,
both as a man and a soldier. I think the country will
learn, and soon discover, that they have in him a good
and valuable public servant. It is not for me to say
more on that subject. As far as regards the duties of
Chief of the Staff, I did not find them near so difficult to
perform as' I had anticipate]. Tee truth is, that I
had at headsparters a very able body of officers. Witb
the exception of Colonel Herbert, Colonel Blayne (both
good men), and myself, the others were oil hands at the
business, and I must say that Colonel Pakenham is one
of the best officers to fill the position of Adjutant-
General in her Majesty's service. Therefore, re-
ceiving as I did the assistance of such an able staff—and
Sir William Codrington commanding his own army,
which he certainly did—l had nothing to do but merely
to refer points to him which I thought questionable, and
then convey to ray junior officers the orders to be carried
out. I found the task a most easy one ; and, therefore,

" All the arrangements with the Salisbury and Yeovil
Company, although special in their character, and beyond
the esual practice of Parliament under similar circum-
stauce, have, so far as the standing orders would permit
them to be brought before Parliament, been sanctioned,
and have now the force of law; but this company's option,
under the agreement, concluded after the special meeting
of January last, of requiring a lease of the Salisbury and
Yeovil line, and to purchase it on the terms then specified,
could not be obtained in the present year.
" Two branches have been sanctioned from the South-
ampton and Dorchester Railway, viz.—from a point near
the Brokenhurst station to Lymington, and from a point
near the Wimborne station to Blandford. Both are to be
constructed by independent companies, at their own ex-
pense, and each act contains provisions authorising the
conclusion of working arrangements with this company for
a period of ten years.
" With the Lymington Company, the directors have,
subject to the approval of the proprietors, entered into an
agreement to maintain and work their railway, when com-
pleted, at 50 per cent. of its gross receipts. This arrange-
inent, and its incidental details, the proprietors will be re-
quested to sanction at the coming meeting. The directors
suggest that powers to negotiate with the Blandford
Branch Company, should also be accorded to them.
" An act has also been passed for constructing a market-
house at Salisbury, at a short distance from the terminus
of thelßasingstoke and Salisbury Branch, with a railway to
connect it with that line. These works are to be wholly
constructed and maintained at the cost of their proprietors,
and by largely increasing the market accommodation at
Salisbury they cannot fail to contribute to the traffic of
the Salisbury and Yeovil and the railways of this company.
The works being col demoted on the same gauge as this
company's lines, it has peen arranged that the Market
Branch Line shall be worked by this company, and that
they shall have the control of all the persons employed
thereon. These terms the directors will request power at
the ensuing meeting finally to conclude.
" By the act of the present session the Brighton Com-
pany aro authorised to accept a lease from the Wimbledon
and Croydon Company of their line of railway, about 81
miles in length. The rent is 1,8201. per annum, being at
the rate of interest of 4 per cent. on the cost of the line.
The directors have, subject to the sanction of the proprie-
tors, agreed with the directors of the Brighton Company
that this company shall participate equally in this lease--
an arrangement which must be mutually advantageous.
The sanction of the proprietors will bo asked thereto at
the ensuing meeting, the Brighton proprietors having at a
recent meeting confirmed it."
The following is the report of the locomotive and car-
riage superintendent :
" Locomotive Department, Nine Elms, July 10, 1851.
TO THE CHAIRMAN AND DIRECTORS OF THE LONDON
AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY.

" Gentlemen,—The cost of maintaining the engines, car-
riages, and waggons, during the half-yearjust expired, has
been at the rate of 10.791 per train mile, the corresponding
period of last year being 10.66 d. The slight increase arises
from the traffic having been considerably heavier, and the
goods train miles 21 per cent. greater.
" The stock of engines has been maintained in an efficient
condition, and this is substantiated by the fact of the pi.
loting being reduced from 29,255 to 14,058 miles, or at the
rate of 10 per cent.
"The average consumption of coals and coke has been
21.71 b per train mile ; but upon the quantities being sepa-
rated, and the coals reduced to their coke value, the rate
for passenger and goods trains would be 18.31 b per mile.
This subject has already engaged your attention, and having

[PRICE 4D. STAMPED 5D

when the army arrives in the country in such good order,
I beg distinctly to state that the credit of that is not due
to me. I hold the opinion that generals of division should
thoroughly discipline their own divisions ; and in this
case they did it. I do not know whether the generals
of division have any fault to find with me, but certainly
I have no fault to find with them. They did their duty
well. (Cheers.) I have now to-thank Lady Somerville
and many of my friends near me for the kindness shown
to my wife and children during my absence ; and I can
only add that, if any of my humble performances, corn.
'bined with the gratifying and splendid reception which
I have met with since my return to England, should in.
duce her Majesty's Government to employ me again on
active service, I sincerely hope that on my return I may
met with the same reception and the same enthusiasm
that I have experienced on this occasion. (Great cheer-
ing.)

711113 MILTTIA MUTINY AT NE
TENCES ON THE PR'S(
The trials of the militiamen charged wit,
or attempted murder during the recent mutiny a. ei ei
were continued yesterday at the assizes in
.that town.
The same counsel were engaged as on the preceding day.
Thomas Carr, a lance cerporal of the North Tipperary
militia, was indicted for firing at a soldier named Chariest
Fux, with intent to murder, and also with firing at- a
police-constable named Maher ; and he was also charged:
generally
_with firing at 50 of her Majesty's troops,,--with
the intent to commit murder.
The Attorney-General, who stated the case, observed
that the prisoner was a ringleader in the unfortunate
affair, and he was almost the only one of the :eon-com-
missioned officers who took any part in the riots, the
others having all endeavoured to bring back the m en to
order. Several witnesses having been examined,
Mr. Johnstone addressed the jury on the part of tie
pris-mer, and contended that there was not sufficient evi-'
donee to identify him as having taken any active part ;
that he could not be said to have fired ab-any of the in-
dividuals specifically named in the indictment, and that-
there was nothing to show the guns were loaded.
The prisoner received an admirable character from the
Rev. Mr. S ua 1( rt.
Judge Moore charged the jury, who in a few minutea
returned a verdict of guilty on the third count—for
firing with intent to murder some of the military.
Cornelius Ryan, TV. Cummins, and E. Laffan, were
next arraigned upon an indictment for shooting at the
military escort, in Barrack-street, with intent to murder.
Mr. Johnstone said that having read the irf zmations
he would not trouble the court or waste time, as the prie
Boners were willing to plead guilty. They threw them-
selves upon the mercy of the court and of the executive,
and for the commis 4ion of the acts of which they had been
guilty they now felt sincere regret. They acted under
the excitement of the moment, and under the idea that
they were to have been deprived of some of the advan-
tages promised to them when enlisting. They were now
deeply sensible of having acted wrongly.
The Attorney-General felt bound to say that the pri-
soners acted very properly in adopting the very judicious
advice given to them. As pnblie prossentor he felt bound
to have the law vindicated, and tfishowyen, whether in
arms or ervilianieettiat they anuld not transgress the law
without being puniiihed ;'letit he *Geld .not i
objections to affect the merciful consiaeration of t exe-
cutive on the part of the men who pleaded guilty, or who
had been concerned in the proceedings that day investi-
gated. . .
Judge Mooreconsidered that the prisoners had adopted
eliewietert poem in pleading guilty, and in' the'theveve
cases previously tried it would have been impossible for
tha jury to have forind any. other 'Verdicts than those
they had -returned.
Major Frew, of the Tipperary Militia, gave the pri-
soner Ryan a
_good character, as did also Dr. Bagwell;
of the same regiment.
Samuel Lawrence, a civilian, was then Dliced at the
'bar, charged with exciting Stephen Brown, the man
convicted of the murder of the soldier Patrick Curley,
to the commission of that crime.

The Attorney-General applied for the postponeMent of
the trial until the next assizeis;' the case not being yet
sufficiently-ratede out ; and he took that opportunity to
"express his thanks to the military authorities' for the
great prudence and discretion which they had shown.
•Vhey had displayed an amount of temper and forbear-
ance which wail most creditable, while at the sapid "'rime ..
adopting the most efficient means of protecting life and
property from outrage: Their calm decision and wise
forbearance, were equally' remarkable, .and from the
highest officer to the humblest soldier, their forbearance, '
calmness, and activity in repressing outrage proved most
' exemplary. Hati it not been for this forbearance, the
Own might have witnessed more fearful scenes of blood-
shed, and far more lives have been lost on this melan-
choly occasion. Their con luct was beyond all praise.
Judge Moore fully concurred in the very high opinion
expressed as to the forbearance, discretion, and humanity
displayed by the military.
The Attorney-General wished to add that there existed '
great mieapprehensien as to the treatment of the militia.
The Lord-Lieutenant had been always most anxious not
mprely to do the Men justice, but to do more for them
than they could demand as of right., As to the taking
away of a part of the regimental clothing and putting it in
store, this was absolutely necessary, for otherwise when
called together for training, a great portion of tlwir
bounty might have been appropriated to the purpose of
new clothing. The anxious desire of the executive was
to act towards the whole of the militia forge with libe-
rality, and in a fair and juer:SPirit. -
•,
, 4tHE SENTENCES.
John. Bannon and Thomas Carr were then placed at
the,bar to receive sentence. His lordship said—You
have been tried and convicted for shooting at some.'cf
her Majesty's force* with intent to commit murder, and
the evidence akainil you laid before the jury was per-
fectly conclusive a..; to your guilt. It was impossible for
them,- or for-dnyvoncientious jury, to come to any other
conclusion tban they did. They,haye, however, strongly
recommended you. to mercy, and, so far as I have it in
my Ward., J Shill bivieffect. to that recommendation.
Cornelius Ryan, William Cummins, and Edward Laffad, • -•'
you were indicted for a similar offence, and have pleaded
guilty, and never did counsel give more judicious or
more proper advice. than in recommending you to take
the step which you have done. And. I am happy to
believe and think that when you-comentid to act upon
the advice of that counsel you did so frOm a feeling of -.1
contrition upon your parts, and from regret at ,having
been betrayed into the commission of the crime of which
you have pleaded guilty. It is very deeply -o be la-
mented that you were betrayed byany circumstances into
such a crime. You resorted to open acts of violence in
a populous town, which ended in the deaths of several
persons. I feel convinced that you acted under very
great excitement indeed. I feel that that excitement was
caused by what I hope may turn oat a gross misappre-
hension, and I would be disposed to go as far as I could
to find palliating circumstances in your respective cases,
but as judge, sitting here, I have a duty to discharge,
and I shall not swerve from it. I must discharge that
duty, acting under the obligation of theoath which Ihave
sworn. I shall, however, asfar as possible give effect to
the recommendation of the jury, and bring under the
consideration of the head of the Government whatever
can be urged on your part—a nobleman whose humanity
and compassionate tenderness and indulgence for the
weakness of human failings are only to be equalled by
the firmness with which he discharges the duties of his
high office. It is not for me to say whether the recom-
mendation will be attended to. I will give to it every
effect, and you have the assurance of the Attorney-Gene-
ral that he will not offer any obstructions towards a le-
nient consideration of your respective cases. I have how-
ever my duty to discharge, and in the discharge of it
mint pass upon you a verysevere sentence, and that sen-
tence is that you each be transported for the term of 15
years.
The prisoners looked somewhat astounded at the sen-
tence, but made no observation.

Stephen Burns was then brought up, and asked if he
bad anything to say whysentence of death and execution
should not be passed upon him for the murder of Patrick
Curley. He made no reply, but stood calmly and firmly
at the bar.

+~

Judge Moore then briefly addressed him and said—
You have been found guilty of the wilful murder of a
soldier of the name of Patrick Curley, and there is no
doubt that the unfortunate man lost his life at your hand.
He was in the service of her Majesty ; he had served
with great distinction, and having escaped all the pe-
rils of the recent war, he returned home to meet his
death by your hand. I believe you acted under cir-
cumstances, like the other man convicted, of great ex-
cite., = fy but I am sure you now are deeply conscious
that a o'sineitement ought tor an instant to have led you to
commit the fearful crime of murder, and that against an
unoffending man. Nothing would be further from my
wishes than to say anything calculated to aggravate
your own feelings at what has passed. Yon are, no
doubt, perfectly convinced of the aggravated character
of your offence, causing the death of a fellow•creature.
However great your crime, it was not attended with all
the circumstances of atrocity that have too frequently
characterised the offences committed in this county.
You did not know the man who fell by your hand. Yon
certainly, as far as I can ascertain, bore him no ill-will,
but rash and excited—l might say by drink—you de-
prived that unfortunate soldier of his life. I have no
power to give effect to the recommendation to mercy of
the jury. It is not in my power in the slightest degree
to alter or vary that awful sentence of the law, but the
recommendation of the jury will be laid by me before
the head of the Government, but it is not in my power
to hold out to you any hopes. I cannot say there is no
hope, but all I can say is that I will transmit the re-
commendation of the jury to his Excellency the Lord-
Lieutenant. The learned judge then proceeded to pass
sentence of death and execution upon a day to be subse.
quently named.

The men found guilty of attacking the military near
T. emplemore, at the races, were sentenced to ten months'
imprisonment.
Judge Moore intimated that he had altered his opi-
nion as to the validity of the three counts in the indict-
ment charging the Tipperary Militia rioters with firing
generally at her Majesty's troops without naming the
latter specifically ; and he would not reserve the case for
the Court of Criminal Appeal, should his views after
full consideration remain the same as at present.
The trial at the Kildare Assizes relative to the Italian
professorship of Trinity College has not yet terminated.

STOPPAGE OF THE FRASCATI RAILWAY.---A letter from
Rome of the 24th states that the railway from that city
to Fras2ati has been stopped by order of the Govern-
ment. It wag, after its opening, at work for a week,
during which time the whole affair was a continued sac-
.cession of mismanagement. On the 21st it was closed
in order that an examination into its construction may
take place, after which, if the result be satisfactory, it
will be again open to the public.
THE SIKIIS.—The Government of the Punjaub has
just published a report upon the census taken on the
last day of 1855. This document, among other facts of
interest, contains the announcement that the Sikh reli-
gion is expiring. There are no Sikhs by birth,
disciples being initiated when able to answer for them-
selves. Since the annexation of the country the number
of the initiated ha-; gr.:dually declined. No longer a
dominant caste, the Sikhs find their religious isolation <
inconvenient and burdensome. They have therefore
ceased to initiate their children, who remain pure Hin-
doos, and are not taught to reverence the grunth., So
rApid has been the charge that it is believed the next
generation will witness the total extinction of the creed.
The division of Lahore which contains Uniritsur, the sa-
cred city of the Sikhs, and which comprises their- strong.
hold, comprises 3,500,000 inhabitants ; of these only
200,000, or less than 6 per 9ent., are Sikhs.
