THE GREAT LOSS OF LIFE AT THE
REGENT'S-PARK.

The work of searching the ornamental water for
the bodies of the persons still missing, and which
there is but too much reason to believe still remain
in the lake, was resumed this morning. Mr. Reinke
attended with two of his divers, and the spot
selected for their operations was to the cast of the
long island, and opposite the residence of Mr.
Foster. The glass early this morning gave
eight degrees of frost, and consequently the ice
had increased in thickness and solidity. The toil of
again breaking up the surface of the lake had to be
performed, but when it had to some extent been
cleared of ice the boats also vent out to their different
stations. A most praiseworthy effort is being
made by Mr. King, of Great Portland street,
Mr. Joblin, of Douglas-road, and Mr. Walford,
of York-terrace, to collect subscriptions to pay
the poor men they have engaged to clear the
ice off the water. It was stated at the inquest yes-
terday by Mr. Russell, from the office of the Com-
missioners of the Public Works, that, with the ex-

ception of Mr. Heinke and his divers, every person
engaged iu the melancholy work had up to yesterday
been paid ; but this statement mustsimply have ap-

plied to the few park-keQpers, police-constables, and
Mullane Society's men, and not to the great num-

ber of men engaged in the bitter cold and laborious
work of dragging the masses of ice off the water to
the bank. The poor fellows have worked excessively
hard, and had it not been for the exertions of the
gentlemen we have named above they certainly
would have been unremunerated for their
labour. Yesterday Mr. King engaged and

paid over one hundred of them, giving

to each 2s. for his day's work from the
sum collected in &Ming amounts from the spec-

tators on thg banks of the water. To-day he has set

200 men to work, and it is to be hoped the subscrip-
tions will enable him to continue his humane labour.
It is gratifying to know.that subscriptions have com-
menced to flow in from quarters least expected.
Last evening Mr. Douglas, the master of Mary-
lebone Workhouse, who has consented to act
as treasurer of the fund, received £1 10s.
from " A few friends at the Red Lion, Coventry,"
and 15s. from " J. 8.," so that there is a hope that
while the necessity exists for the labour of the poor
fellows, who otherwise would have been without
employment at this inclement season, they will
regularly receive their small and well-earned wages.
This morning a great stir was made in the park by
the appearance of a large boat, which had been
strongly lashed in a cart, and a party of " under-
water men," headed by G. and W. Gooden, Lower
Fore-street, Lambeth, who attended as volunteers
to assist in the dragging operations. In their boat,
the Patience, they brought with them a most ex-
tensive supply of tackle, which, it appears, they use
when engaged in weighing sunken ships and barges
from the bed of the river Thames, and with this they
propose to " sweep" the bottom of the lake. Their
boat was launched as soon as a convenient
spot could be found amidst the large mounds
of ice, some 12 or 13 feet high, now hourly
increasing on the edge of the lake facing Sussex-
gardens, and steps were, immediately commenced
to get their apparatus into work. Before, however,
the boat was pushed off Mr. King, anticipating that
his subscriptions woult enable him to perform his
promise, regularly engaged the eight men, guaran-
teeing them £4 a day for the use of their
boat and their own services. This arrangement
put the boat entirely under the direction of Mr.
King and his active committee, by which means
orders were enabled to be given for the searching of
particular spots hitherto undisturbed. The inhabi-
tants of the mansions facing the scene of the cala-
mity have in many instances acted in a most charit-
able manner to the poor men engaged in removing
the ice. One lady, the other morning, sent no
less than 18 gallons of hot coffee and brandy to
the men, and in some cases the ladies came personally
with their servants, loaded with warm comforts,
which they distributed in the most liberal manner.
The statement that all persons engaged in the work
have been paid seems to have shut up this charitable
supply, as this morning not a pint of anything was
sent to the men—a matter to be regretted. Even
now there does not appear to be any recognised
directing head of the operations, consequently each
person does that which to him seems best, a circum-
stance which sometimes leads to much annoyance
enhoaurggehtoftothhaevieceb, eaenndseenintpobwyerGedOvetorngmievnetthteo
and difficulty. Immediately after the accident some
ptaekrse9
necessary directions ; a matter which would not
have perhaps cost over £5OO or £6OO, an outlay
no one would have regretted, but nothing of the
kind has been done, and not the least assistance
has been offered by those in authority, who
appears to have looked upon the calamity
with the utmost indifference. Mr. Russell yes-
erday stated that the noble lord, the First
Commissioner of Works, was most anxious to render
every assistance in the matter. With such an inti-
mation, it seems as if the old enemy, "red tape,"
had prevented his lordship's wishes being carried
into execution.

We have fortunately no addition to make to the
list of dead, whilst ten persons put down as missing
have returned to their friends.
There were a few skaters and sliders on portions
of the ice this morning.

HER MAJESTY, &c.

OSBORNE, Jan. 21.
The Queen drove out this morning, accompanied
by Princess Louise.

Princess Beatrice drove also.

PI ince Arthur and Prince Christian walked in the
grounds.

The Duke of Edinburgh, attonded by the Hon
Eliot Yorke, left to-day for London.
The Prince of Leiningen left also.

The Baronetcy of Tichborne.

- P -

[(From a Correspondent >f the Morning Post.)
WINCHESTER, Saturday.
It is a source of considerable satisfaction to those

who have followed the intricate tale of the baronetcy
of Tichborne to have something definite at last to
announce, and when that something is a positive

confirmation of previously doubtful circumstances
involving almost incredible incidents and vast inte-
rests, the pleasure is undoubtedly increased a hun-
dredfold.

The baronet has returned. So says his mother,
the Lady Doughty Tichborne. Of this fact I can
speak with the greatest confidence. At the end of
last week Sir Roger Charles Ti.thborne went over t.)
Paris and saw the Lady Doughty Tichborne, who
immediately recognised him and acknowledged him
as her long-lost and long-looked-for son, exhibiting,
as was natural, the most profound emotion.
But it would seem that, though Sir Roger has in-
creased so much in bulk, his health has not been
improved by his roving life. Soon after his arrival
at Paris he was taken ill, and up to the last tidings
received by intimate friends he is still confined to his
bed-chamber. The most eminent physicians of the
French capital have been summoned to attend upon
him. The anxiety of Lady Tichborne on his ac-
count is intense. Hardly can she be prevailed on
to leave the bedside of the sufferer, but they remain
together from morning till night discoursing upon
the strange events of the past.
Every precaution that prudence could suggest was
taken that the interview between them might not
prove too much for the lady. Andrew Bogle, who
has taken such a conspicuous part in the proceed-
ings throughout, preceded Sir Roger to Paris,
and announced that he would follow. Almost
simultaneously, another gentleman, in the interests
of the present Sir Henry Alfred Doughty Tichborne
—the minor—started for the same capital, and had
several interviews with her ladyship, to whom he
gave the benefit of his counsel and experience, but
it would appear without accomplishing the object
of his journey.

Since the recognition of the baronet by her lady-
ship it is curious to observe the altered conduct of
some of the intimate friends of the family. When
one spoke to them previously upon the circumstances
of the case, they assumed the most mysterious airs,
nodded vaguely, and either made no reply to the
questions addressed to them, or answered in a man-
ner worthy of the oracles of old. Now all is changed.
The same persons are bold and candid and open.
They acknowledge he is the right man—the "round
man in the round hole"—and assert that they be-
lieved he was from the first. They are ready to
meet every objection. Sir Roger's peculiai conduct
throughout is characteristic (they say) of the man.
He was always eccentric. This accounts for his
privacy—his refusal to see intimate friends—his
mystifying of Mr. Gosford—•all is consistent. All
that has transpired from the time Sir Roger sailed
for Sydney up the present hour is confirmatory of
his character. In one word, had he not so acted he
would not have been Sir Roger

But, though Sir Roger Charles has returned, ac-
cording to the acknowledgment of his mother, it
would not be safe to assume for one moment that
he will be permitted to enter on the undisputed
possession of the family estates. To all present ap-
pearances, he will have to fight a stubbirn foe in
the law courts. Already, it would seem, the hostile
forces are arrayed, and a long law-suit may result.

OUR LAST TRIUMPH AT SEA.—The SUneeSS-
'ul termination of the great ocean yacht race

s announced in our telegraphic columns this
morning, Jan. 1, and will be read with delight and
exultation by all those whose hearts are stirred
with the thoughts that Columbia rules the sea, in ,
peace as well as in war. It was no holiday pastime
this crossing the Atlantic in mid-winter, on board
these trim little vessels. Nor yet was it foolhardi-
ness, for we had the assurance of that long-experienced
and able Philadelphia yachtman, Captain lt.
F. Loper, that these now triumphant yachts
were staunch as they were pretty, and per-
fectly- safe and sea-worthy. On the part of the
yachtmen who made the adventurous trip it was a
manly defiance of the winds and the waves, at the
season of the year when they are most aggressive ;
an indubitable proof that real pluck and genuine
daring are an essential component of the American
character. Our English cousins received the brave
young sea sovereigns with American hospitality,
with cheering and firing salutes, tender of Govern-
ment dock-yards and congratulatory letters, and
dinners and banquets innumerable. Even the
Queen took such a deep interest in the enterprise of
the young American sea kings that she gave special
orders to be promptly apprized of the arrival of the
yachts. Of course the Henrietta won the race, carry-
ing off the snug little sum of $90,000 as a substantial
laurel of victory. We accept the good fortune of
the Henrietta as a matter of course, because she is
owned by an American journalist, who accompanied
his vessel on her long race. The national triumph
is, that we have proved to the world that the United
States can build and navigate sailing vessels that
can cross the Atlantic, at the worst time of the
year, in thirteen days and twenty-two hours. Our
own merchants and shipowners will profit from
this nautical lesson, and all will honour the staunch
yachts llenrietta, Fleetwing, and Vesta, their cap-
tains and able crews, and heartily congratulate
Captain J. G. Bennett on his well-earned victory
and handsome New Year's gift of s9o,ooo.—Phila-
delphia Inquirer.

TEN FAT BEASTS DROWNED.—A very singular
accident occurred on Friday in Sir Tattoo Sykes's park at
Sledmere, an the Yorkshire Folds. The large pond was
frozen over, and snow was upon the ice. One beast got
upon the ice and was immersed. The bellowing of the
drowning beast attracted the others to the spot, and they
one by one followed to the place and were gradually im-
mersed by the breaking of the ice and every one drowned.
LIFEBOAT SERVICE.—ABERDOVEY, NORTH WALES,
Monday.—During a heavy gale from the E.S.E. yesterday
(states Mr. David Williams, of the Customs) a schooner
was seen with a signal of distress flying. She had failed
to beat up the harbour against the gale, and was anchored
close to a bank on which a heavy sea was breaking, and
there was danger of her going on the bank, as her anchors
were dragging. Tho lifeboat Royal Berkshire, of the Na-
tional Lifeboat Institution, and a steam-tug thereupon
promptly put out to the assistance of the vessel. Tho
steamer, however, having to return for a towing hawser,
went on a shoal, where she remained. The lifeboat was
heartily welcomed by the schooner's craw, who were
nearly exhausted with their labours. Some of the crew of
the lifeboat went on board the vessel, set one of liar sails,
and took her under the lee of some sand hills which offered
shelter, and there she anchored. The master desired that
the lifeboat should stand by them in case their vessel should
again drive, and the boat accordingly remained alongside
all night. This morning, the weather having slightly mo-
derated, the lifeboat assisted in bringing the schooner
safely into harbour. She is the Jane Ellen of Aboryst-
with, bound from Neath to this port with a cargo of culm.
The cost of this lifeboat. was benevolently collected a
short time since in Berkshire by Captain Stephens of the
Reading Bank, and presented to the National Lifeboat In-
stitution, and this is the first service she has had the oppor-
tunity of rendering since she has been placed on her
station.
