The following appeared iu oar Thitd (1. last
t vening

This afternoon Young, who stands charged with causing
the death of Edmund Wilmot, in a pugilistic encounter,
which took place at the Queen's Head, Great Windmill-
street, on the 9th instant, and William Shaw, the
landlord of the house, Edward Donelly, Thomas Paws,
James Evans, Flynn, and Goode, who were also charged
with aiding and assisting, wore placed before Mr. Knox
for frrther examination.

Inspector Silverton, of the C division of police, informed.
the magistrate that he had not yet succeeded in arresting
the fourth man, who it was proved was acting in the ring
during the match, and therefore he had to ask for a fur-
ther remand. Flynn had admitted that he acted as
referee.

Mr. Avery, the house surgeon, at Charing-cross Hos-
pital, was in attendance, but he was not examined.
Mr. Knox thought it better that every exertion should
be made to have the whole of the persons charged present
before the matter was further proceeded with, and there-
fore he at once remanded them for a week.

The recognisances of each of the defendants having been
renewed, they were admitted to bail.

WRECKING AT DEAL.—The 30th of August last
was one of those wild nights of which wo hear sailors speak,
and many a gallant ship when the morning of the Ist of
September broke was found stranded or wrecked on the iron
bound coast of England. Among those was the ship North,
a vessel of some 1,200 tons burden, which was seen by the
Coastguard on that morning on that grave of ships, the
Goodwin Sands. At the Quarter Sessions for the Eastern
Division of the county of Kent, held at St. Augustine's,
near Canterbury, on Wednesday, a case was heard which
illustrates the course of life pursued by the Deal boat-
men, and is of great importance to the public gene-
rally. A man named Foster, a marine store dealer, was
charged by the Crown authorities with stealing an im-
mense quantity of rigging and ship's stores belonging to the
late ship North, wrecked on the Goodwins on the 30th of
August, the property of Conborough, Boyd, and Co., of
Liverpool. Mr. Barrow and Mr. Bridge prosecuted, and
the prisoner was defended by Mr. Francis. The case occu-
pied the whole of Wednesday, and some of the evidence was
of rather a curious character. The stolen property was ex-
hibited in court, and covered a large portion of the space
within the bar. Tho chief officer of the North identified
the ropes, cordage, and ship's furniture ; and Mr. George
Reed, a Coastguard officer, stated that for many days after
the ship struck swarms of Deal boats went out daily to the
place where the North was stranded, and actually stripped
her of everything that could be carried away. Several
carters swore to taking away waggon loafs of the rope
which had been sold by the Deal boatmen to the prisoner
to Messrs. Phipps's paper-mills, alma seven miles from peal
where it was made into brown paper; and it appeared that
these gentlemen gave the prisoner a higher price for this lot

HER MAJESTY'S STAGHOUNDS.—On Friday the
meet was at Swinley, when an untried deer from Rich-
mond Park was uncarted at Red Lodge, and gave a capital
forest run of one hour and a half, and was taken at a pretty
part of the country, in a road by Bagshot Park. The field
was more select than numerous. The ground was exceed-
ingly heavy, and very trying both for horses and hounds,
on account of a heavy fall 'of rain the previous night.
Harry King remarked that there was every probability of.f
the deer turning out a first-rater, it having proved
