Vice-Admiral H. W. Bruce hoisted his flag (white
at the fore) as Commander-in-Chief at Pertsmouth,
on board the Excellent, at noon yesterday, under
the customary salutes from that ship and the Vic-
tory. Admiral W. Bowles, C. 8., hauled down his
flag from the main of the Victory at sunset yester-
day. This morning Vice-Admiral Bruce removes
his flag to the Victory, the flagship of the Comman-
der-in- Chief at the port.
It is expected that Lieut. Francis G. Suttie, at
present serving on board her Majesty's ship Royal
Albert, will receive the appointment of Flag-Lieut.,
should Lieut. Robinson receive the usual step of
rank on the hauling down of an Admiral's flag.
A letter dated Torbay, Tuesday, received at Ply-
mouth, from one of the officers of the Channel
squadron, says that off the Lizard the ships were
taken all aback, and could not again form a line.
The Edgar, Queen, and Donegal remained out. Be-
sides the casualties to the Queen, Diadem, Algiers,
and, Mersey, already reported in Ihe Sun, the let-
ter states that the Aboukir lost her cross-jack yard
and starboard quarter-boats, the Royal Albert
pitched her jib-boom under at times, and the Trafal-
gar lost her jib-boom ; she will probably call at Ply-
mouth before proceeding to the Tagus.
Her Majesty's gunboat Torch, launched from the
builder's yard on Tuesday, arrived at Woolwich
yesterday, and was towed down to Chatham yard.
to be fitted for service.

Her Majesty's Royal paddle-yacht has been paid
off at Portsmouth, and recommissioned again on
Tuesday. Yesterday the commissioned officers on
board received their commissions from the Admi-
ralty, through the hands of Capt. Hon. J. Denman.
The official trial of the Bacchante, 51, screw, at
Portsmouth, is expected to take place on the 6th
instant.

An accident occurred yesterday morning on
board the Ariadne, 26, screw steamer, at Spithead,
which, by an extraordinary piece of good fortune,
was unattended by any serious consequences. At the
usual hour in the morning the topgallantmasts were
being sent up, and the operation was nearly com-
pleted, when the mast-rope of the maintopgallant-
mast broke, and the spar came down with terrific
force from its lofty position, and, breaking its way
through the upper deck, struck one of the 10-inch
maindeck guns on the breech, which checked its
further progress. The breech was slightly elevated,
and rested on the end of a handspike for the pur-
pose of cleaning, and so great was the force of the
blow on the gun that the end of the handspike was
broken short off. This was all the damage done,
none of the hands on deck being touched by the
spar in its descent.
The Hero, 91, screw, Capt. George H. Seymour,
is expected to sail from Spithead this morning for
Lisbon.

The crew of the screw steamship Sanspareil,
Capt. Wilmot, C. 8., in Plymouth Sound, were
mustered and inspected on Wednesday by Capt.
Jerningham, of the gunnery ship Cambridge, pre-
pratory to her departure for Queenstown. She
will call at Pembroke.

The screw steamship Conqueror, 101, at Ply-
mouth, received her powder on Wednesday ; her
crew were to be paid yesterday.
The hired transport Nuggett has arrived at
Woolwich for the embarkation of troops for New
Zealand.

The War Department have chartered the North-
fleet, the Speedwell, and Fontanelle, to ship milt-
stores from Woolwich arsenal.

The steam storeship Ithadaman thus, F. R. Stur-
dee master, sailed from Plymmith for Pembroke on
Wednesday.
- The military store screw transport Lord Pan-
mure, Mr. H. T. Moore master eomnianding, which
vessel sailed from Devonport on Sunday, arrived at
Woolwich on Wednesday, having dischared 700
empty powder barrels at Purfleet. Her cargo con-
sists of 70 ship's guns, over-vented, 30 tons of re-
turned shells, 700 chests of the obsolete muskets
(fur the Tower), which have been replaced by rifles,
now in general use in the army, arid sundry cases
of returned stores. The Lord Panmure reports
having experienced a most fearful gale in the Chan-
nel, carrying away her foregaff, headboard, sails,
&c. On coming to anchor in the Downs the ehief
officer was Leverely disabled by a fall. From the
violence of the gale communication was cut off from
the shore, and no medical assistance was procurable
until the ship's arrival at Woolwich.
The Indiana screw steamer, hired transport, em-
barked yesterday at Portsmouth for Corfu a de-
tachment of the ffrst battalion 9th Foot, 11 officers,
3 officers' wives, 4 officers' children, 2 female ser-
vants, 314 rank and file, 20 soldiers' wives, 35 sol-
diers' children, and 1 horse ; for Gibraltar, a detach-
ment of Royal Artillery, 51 non commissioned
officers and men. The Indiana remained alongside
the dockyard last night to give time for the troops
to settle down in their berths. She will proceed to
her destination this morning.
The following appointments were made yester-
day at the Admiralty :—John R. Aylen, David M.
Welch, and Alfred Bailiston, masters ; John M.
Minter, deputy inspector-general ; George 11.
Mowbray, paymaster; and John:Marston, assistant
paymaster, reappointed to the Royal yacht Victoria
and Albert ; Henry Campion, paymaster, additional,
to the Edinburgh ; John T. Suetor, assistant•pay-
master to the Nile; George Robinson, assistant-
clerk, to the Royal Albert ; G. F.A. Rowe, assistant-
clerk, to the Fisgard William Price, inspector of
machinery afloat, to the Cumberland, for service in
steam ordinary at Sheerness; John H. Langley,

Yesterday afternoon the foundation stone of the
handsome memorial which is to be erected to the
memory of those office, s and men of the Royal
Engineers who fell in the Crimea during the Rus-
sian campaign, was laid at Chatham by the Duke
of Cambridge. The memorial, the erection of which
has been for seal° time in contemplation, will be
built at the eastern end of the parade-ground at
Brompton Barracks—a site which perhaps is one
of the best that could have been selected, as it
will form an appropriate termination to one of
the finest of our barrack parade-grounds. It will
be built from designs furnished by Mr. Digby
Wyatt, and will consist of a lofty central arch 22
feet in height, with two side arches, each about 13
feet in height, and of appropriate width. The entire
structure will be upwards of 30 feet in height, 44
feet in width, and 10 feet in depth or thickness.
It will be elaborately ornamented,ar,d will be faced
with marble, on which will be inscribed the name
of every officer, non-commissionNi officer, and pri-
vate of the 'Royal Engineers who fell in the Crimea.
On the architrave will be engraved the motto of
the Royal Engineers—" Qno fits et gloriu dueunt."
lhe cost of the structure will be at least £7,000,
exclusive-of the iron work, which will be formed
from the guns taken from the Russians, and given
by the Government. The whole cost will be de-
frayed by the subreriptions of the officers and men.
The builders are Messrs. Mansfield and Sons, of
Gray's-inn.road. His Royal. Highness arrived at
the Strood station shortly before 12 o'clock, attended
by his aide-de camp, and was received by a guard
of honour, selected from the Royal Marines and the
East India regiments, the guard being composed of
none but men who had served in the Crimea and
were decorated with the Crimean medal. 'Major
A. A. Douglas, Royal Marines, commanded the
guard, the colours of the Royal Marines being held
by Lieut. Thomas. The Duke proceeded at once to
the garrison, and on arriving at the drawbridge the
guns from the Cornwallis battery fired a royal
salute. The whole of the troops of the garrison, to
the number of about 6,000 men of all ranks, were
drawn up on the parade-ground of Chatham Bar-
racks, under the command of Colonel Jervis, to
await the arrival of the Duke of Cambridge, and
his Royal Highness ha% • ig spent a short time in
inspecting the men, proceeded to perform the cere-
mony of the day. In order to give effect to the
proceedings, very extensive preparat'ons had been
made ; every inch of the lofty scaffolding used in
the building of the memorial was covered with
flags, while from four lofty poles were displayed
the colours of England, Fro -ice, Sardinia, and
Turkey, the nations which fought together in
the Crimea. Above the scaffold was placed the word
" Crimea" in branches of laurel. On each side of
the stone were galleries for the accommodation of
ladies, the general public, among whom the gay
uniforms of nearly 200 officers were conspicuous,
being admitted in the space round the stone. The
approaches were lined on each side by the troops of
the Royal and Indian Engineers. On his Royal
Highness reaching the barracks he was received with
a general salute, the band playing the National
Anthem, Among the distinguished officers who ac-
companied his Royal Highness were General Sir J.
F. Burgoyne, G.C.8., Inspector-General of Fortifi-
cations; Oen. Sir C. W. Pasley, K.C.8.; Gen. Sir
Henry Jones ; Gen. Oldfield, K.H. ; Gen. 11. Eyre,
Sandham, Col. Gordon, C.B. ; Col. Stottlerd,
Col. Walpole, Col. Stanton, C.B. ; Col. Westmacott,
&c. The ceremony commenced by the Rev. Mr.
Green, senior chaplain of the garrison, offering up
an appropriate prayer ; after which Mr.f D. Wyatt
presented his Royal Highness with a photographic
view of the proposed memorial, together with the
plans, which the Duke of Cambridge spent some time
in inspecting. A silver trowel was then handed to
his Royal Highness, with which he spread the mor-
tar, after which the stone, which was decorated with
laurel, was lowered to its place, the Royal Engineers'
band playing " Sleepers, awake !" from Men-
delssohn's " St. Paul." After the stone had been
lowered his Royal Highness examined it with the
square, and then struck it with the mallet, after
which he said " I declare this stone to be well and
duly laid," a fact which was immediately announced
by a second salute of 21 guns fired by the Royal En-
gineer Train. His Royal Highness afterwards in-
spected the corps of the Royal Engineers, the troops
marching past in slow and quick time, and execut-
ing a few other manoeuvres. The Duke of Cam-
bridge, before leaving the garrison, partook of
luncheon in the mess-room of the Royal Engineers,
to which about 100 distinguished officers had been
invited ; on his Royal Highness leaving the gar-
rison the guns from the battery fired a second sa-
lute. The officers of the Royal Engineers gave a
grand banquet in their mess-room last night, in
honour of the occasion, the baud of the Engineers
performing during the dinner.
Notwithstanding the reduction of the Queen's
bounty from i 5 to £4, to recruits engaging with
the Ifoyal Marines, the augmentation of the corps
is proceeding briskly. Captain Wood and Captain
Casey, of the Woolwich division of Light Infantry,
on reserved half-pay, have been ordered on recruit-
ing service. The former has left Woolwich for
Derby, and the latter is about to leave for Newark.
Officers belonging to the Woolwich division on
leave have received instructions to return to their
duties at head-quarters on the 19th inst. as the
usual course of field drills, for the summer season,
will commence on the following day,-the 20th.

TLiE ACCIDENT' ON THE EASTERN
COUNTIES RAILWAY.

Yesterday morning Mr. Humphreys resumed, at
the Lecture-hall, Tottenham, the inquiry into the
circumstances attending the deaths of Edward
Stokes, Timothy Satchel], William Rowell, and
Philip Cornwall, who died from the effects of the
accident which occurred on the above line on the
morning of the 20th ult.
It will be recollected that amongst the wounded
persons was a gentleman named Beane, 70 years of
age, a miller of Powndon. He sustained very seri-
injuries, both legs and both thighs being broken.
He was conveyed to the White Hart Inn, where he
remained in a very precarious condition till Wed-
nesday evening, when he expired about 6 o'clock.
The inquiry yesterday had reference to the death of
Mr. Beane, as well as the other deceased persons.
The company were represented by Mr. Sergeant
Ballantine, instructed by Messrs. Crowder, May-
nard, and Co., solicitors.

A number of witnesses were examined, including
Mr. Sinclair, the locomotive engineer. That gentle-
man gave it as his opinion, after a careful examina-
tion of the pieces of the tire of the engine wheel,
that the breaking of it was caused by an imperfec-
tion in the welding—that defect being probably
caused by a little dirt getting in. It would be im-
possible to discover it externally. It was quite clear
that the driver had discovered the accident, and
was taking every means to stop the train.
The inquiry was further adjourned.
Captain Tyler, the Government Inspector of
Railways, was present during the day to watch the
proceedings on behalf of the Board of Trade.
Since the last inquiry the names of several other
persons injured by the accident have transpired.
The most serious case is that of Mr. Haylock, a
farmer of Hagq,erstone. He lies at the Green
Dragon, Bishopsgate-street. Both legs were broken,
and he had sustained other serious injuries. One
of his legs was amputated yesterday, and last even-
ing he was in a very dangerous condition. The
other injured parties are progressing as favourably
as the serious nature of their injuries will permit.

Society of Arts, John-street, Adelphi.
The Right Hon. Sir JOHN PAKTNGTON, G.C.8.,
who presided, observed that he deemed it one of
the highest honours to occupy that position. From
early life he had taken a deep interest in all ques-
tions relating- to navigation and the building of
ships, and it was also impossible that he could have
occupied a high position in the Royal Navy of
England without acquiring much knowledge of a
practical nature, and .of the utmost importance.
When he saw the scientific and practical men be-
fore him he should of course not venture upon very
positive opinions of his own, but he thought it was
a fact that our naval architecture had not kept pace
with our naval superiority. During the long war
with France, a frigate was captured from the enemy
which was considered as a model of shipbuilding ;
and the idea of clipper ships came from the United
States. Many important improvements had been
carried out by British shipbuilders and engineers,
but, notwithstanding, much remained to be- done.
In naval matters Russia, the United States, France,
and England appeared to be starting upon one great
race Of competition, and the object which this in-
stitution sought to accomplish was that England
should' win. Referring to the Royal Navy, Sir
John observed that the Mersey and Orlando were
wonderful irigates, and a great experiment would
be carried out by the construction of thr.se t wo enor-
mous iron-cased vessels which were projected by the
late, and he was glad to say sanctioned by the pre-
sent Government. He deeply lamented that he could
not on that occasion meet with Mr. Brunel, but when
he saw Mr. Scott Russell present he could not but
sincerely hope that, notwithstanding all adverse
circumstances, that mighty work, the Great Eastern,
would still prove the triumph of science. (Cheers.)
Sir John concluded an excellent address by alluding
to the advantages which must result from the for-
mation of the institution.

(From tits Morning Advertiser.)
"Blessed is he," says Swift, "who expecteth nothing,
for he shall not be disappointed." If there had been any
high expectations regarding the Reform Bill, so often pro-
mised and so long delayed, of which Lord John Russell
was known to be the parent—there would, most certainly,
have been grievous disappointment in the public mind,
when the provisions of the measure became known to
the country. The fact, however, that nothinc, great
or worthy of the people's acceptance was expected, will
prevent any general or deep disappointment. We
were among those whose expectations were the least
enlarged, but assuredly, moderate as they were, they
did exceed what the measure is now known to be.
That the Bill will pass, there can no longer be a doubt.
The Tories, for the sake of appearances, may
offer a sort of opposition to some of its provisions, but in
reality they must be delighted with it. Anything so in-
adequate, anything so complete a mockery of real Reform,
coming from them, would have been received with shouts
of mingled indignation and derision.
One simple fact will show how worthless and delusive
the measure is. It will only add, according to Lord John
Russell's own calculation, 194,000 new electors to the exist-
ing constituency. Now, what claim can this addition to
the electoral body have to be regarded as a large and
Liberal extension of the franchise, in a country con-
taining a population of somewhere about 171,000,000 F
The present constituency, according to Lord Jelin
Russell, amounts to 410,710, and the addition
now to be made to it will fall short of a third. If
the existing constituency is confessedly altogether inade-
quate to ensure a faithful representation of the national
opinions and wishes, so small an addition as this will ma
leave matters much in the way in which this Re-
form Bill found them. To have brought in so poor a mea-
sure as this, is no better than gravely trifling with the
country. It would have been far better not to have brought
in any bill at all, than such an inadequate measure as that
which Lord John Russell last night laid on the table of the
house. It will satisfy no one, except the Tories, or such of
the Whigs as are in their hearts opposed to all reform.
The conntry will feel that it has been deceived, and that
feeling will lead to very unpleasant results. Instead of
the measure quieting the demand for representative reform,
it will only kindle its slumbering embers into a flame.

FIRE AND LOSS OF LlFE.—Yesterday morning,
about six, a fire broke out in the private residence of Mr.W.
Featherstone, No. 5, Pleasant-place, Bankside, Southwark,
and, we regret to say was attended with fatal consequences.
In a very short time from the discovery of the fire the
escape attended,followed by the brigade engines from South-
wark-bridge-road,Tooley- street,andWaterloo-road stations.
By then the whole of the top part of the house was en-
veloped in flames, and unfortunately Mr. 14'eatherstone was
in the midst of the fire, ' which was raging so fiercely that
no one was able to enter the place. The neighbours and fire-
men eventually succeeded in getting the flames extinguished
but not until the top portion of the house was burned out
and the remainder considerably damaged. -Upon the fire-
men entering the ruins as soon as the flames were extin-
tinguished, they found the unfortunate man burned over
the whole of his body in a frightful manner and quite dead.
The deceased was 60 years of age. There is no doubt but the
poor fellow was burnt to death before the escape was called,
or even the existence of the fire became known.
DEATH OF A BANKER.—Mr. James Palmer, who
was for so many years a partner in the firm of Baillie and
Co., bankers, of Bristol, expired on Monday, at his residence
Corn-street, at the advanced age of 88. The deceased, who
was the architect of his own fortune, was of humble extrac-
tion, and entered the bank in which he afterwards became
a partner, as a junior clerk. He retie ed from the firm about
five or six years since, having amassed a princely fortune.
We hear, on pretty good authority, that Mr. Palmer has left
behind him property to the value gf upwards of £200,000,
morebban £170,000 of which are invZsted in Console. About
£25,000 have been bequeathed by him to various charities in
Bristol, and abouta like amount to personal fiends, among
whom the names of Lady Haberfield, Mr. Isaac Niblett, and
others are mentioned. The executers and residuary legatees
are H. A. Palmer, Esq., of Sambourne House, Clifton, W.
Fripp, Esq., of Dawlisb, Devon, and Miss arrington, a
niece of the deceased, who are said to be interested to the
extent of about £40,000 each under the v. ill.—Batit Chro-

CONSISTORY COURT.
(Before Dr. Travel s

TIIE RELIGIOUS DISSENSIONS AT ST. GEORGE'S EAST.
This morning wrs appointed for Mr. Robert Rosier,
who has been ci!e,d to this court at the instance of the Rev.
Bryan-Iting, the rector, to appear to answer the allegations
in the articles Which have been find against him.
It will be remembered that on Tut,sday, the 21st inst.,
Dr. Philliinore, who attended on behalf of Mr. King, ten.
dered certain articles against Mr. R4l.cr, who 4ppoand .in
person, charging; tin thiir,.dirrirw-2-, the Litany sorviee in
August last, when the .V.ev. W. P. Bum, the officiating
minister, fell down in a fit,' he shouted out, " This is a
judgment of God upon the Puseyites ! he is dead—down with
Bryan King 1" and that upon other cccasions he was guilty
of chiding, brawling-, and behaving irreverently in church.
The judge would not allow all these articles to be pled, and
they underwent very considerable modifications. In their
amended form Mr. Rosier was called upon to answer them
on Tuesday last, the 28th ult., but owing to a mistake in
the hour he did not make his appearance in court. A
peremptory order directing him to attend to-day was tiga
served upon him, and he put in his appearance accordingly.
Dr. Twiss inquired if he was prepared to put in his an-
swer to the allegations made against him?

Mr. Rosier said he had not received a copy of the
amended articles and was not prepared with an answer.
The Proctor, for Mr. King, reminded the learned judge
that the articles were amended on the last court day, when
Mr. Rosier was present.
Dr. Twigs (to the registrar)—What would be the ordi-
nary course of procedure in such a case.
Dr. Shepherd (the registrar)—said he could get a copy
of the articles at the office, and by them amend his own.
Mr. Rosier said he had been fally prepared to put in hie
plea to the whole of the articles as they were originally
framed, and which were entirely untrue.
Dr. Twigs told Mr. Rosier that he could attend at the
Registrar's office, and get a copy of the amended articles,
The court would expect him on the next court day to bring
in his answer. This would be a peremptory order. He
must either bring in answer or a negative issue.
Mr. Rosier then left the court with two or three friends
who had LccOmpanied him.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(TI1i I DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH •STREET.

CHARGE OF DEFRAUDING INTENDING EMIGRANTS.—
Michaul Joseph de Sczostakoosky, an interpreter, of 11,
Milton-terrace, Pimlico, was charged before Mr. Bingham
by Sergeant Rogers, of the C divisisn, to whom the case
was entrusted, with obtaining two sums of 18s. each from
Ezekiel Simons, of 2, Angel-court, City, and Nathan
Abrahams, of 7, Avenue, Gravel-lane.
Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap-
peared for the prisoner ; and Mr. Charles Albert inter-
preted the evidence.

On the charge. sheet the prisoner is called " Francois
Napoleon," ke.

Ezekiel Simons, a Russian Pole, said—About nine or
ten months ago the prisoner came to me and said he was
the chief of a society for sending away people who could
not afford to pay all the expenses of their passage, and
asked me for 10s. It was through another person that he
saw the prisoner. The prisoner, at his house, 19, New-
man .street, Princes street, said he could assist me, and
asked if T. wanted to go to America—New York. I said
" Yes." He said, "If you want to go you must pay me
a deposit of 105.," which I gave him. He then
said "As soon as the ship is ready I will come
and tell yeti," and he took down our addresses. Ho
said "You need not get provisions, as you will have a
card to get them on board." I left, and the prisoner
called on me in six weeks, and asked if I was ready.
and gave me to understand that I should have to pay £3
10s. more for myself and wife for the passage. I said I was
not ready but would sell all my things and get the money.
He said, " You'll have 10 days to sell them in," and I then
said I would give him the rest of the money when I got on
the vessel, but the prisoner never came again. Lastnight
the prisoner said, " Whatever you charge for your loss I'll
pay you." I should not have parted with my money but
that I believed he was the chief of a soeiely and I should
be sent to America. My things realised £5.
Nathan Abrahams said—About nine or ten months ago
I went to 19, Princes-street, with another person, who is
now in America. I asked if Napoleon was at home, and
prisoner said he was Napoleon. The prisoner said he sent
poor people to America, and asked if I was a single man. I
told him I had three children, and he said he wanted £7 of
me, and he would himself send me. I said I could not pay
£7, and he then reduced the amount to £5. Prisoner said
he was master over a society, and asked at once for £l. I
had 10s. with me, and he took that as a deposit of the £5,
and to insure me being sent. He said he would call and
tell me when to go. A month after the prisoner called at
my house, and told me to be ready in a few days for the
voyage, and asked for some money. I said, when the
vessel was to sail I had £4 to receive from
a Jewish charitable fund, and that the money would be
paid for me. The prisoner did not call again after that. I
have been to his house frequently, but could not see him,
and have not VII last night at the police station.

Sergeant Rogers, who took the prisoner into custody,
having deposed to that fact, said, in answer to Mr. Lewis,
that he knew Mr. Sand 4, who was formerly an in-
spector of police, and was employed to send refugees from
this country by the French and English Governments ; but
they were not persons in distress, but political refugees,
not Russians and Poles only, but French, Italians, and
ethers.

Mr. Lewis having cross-examined the witnesses, the pri-
soner was remanded for a week, bail being taken for his re-

appearance.
