in; numerous accidents.
Police-constable Smith, C 184, stated that between
10 and 11 o'clock last night he was on duty in Park-
lane, when he saw a dray approaching him down Park-
lane. The prisoner was sitting on the near shaft of the
dray, which was drawn by three horses, and which were
going at a very rapid rate. At the corner of Brook-
street the dray came into contact with a cab, which,
with the horse in it, was turned over, and both were
dragged a distance of about forty yards, when they
were separated from the dray. They next turned
over a music van with the horse in it, and afterwards
knocked dow❑ a horse in a gentleman's brougham.
Both the music van and brougham were much damaged.
Witnese, with several other persons, ran after the dray
which was stopped. The nrisoner was drunk.
Mr. Lester, an inspector of the C division, stated that
the horse and cab was valued by the master at about
401., and that he had only jest set up in business as a
cab proprietor. The prisoner, by this occurrence, caused
Park-lane to be blocked up for above an hour.
The cabman said that his cab was knocked all to pieces
and he asked what compensation he could claim. It
was a mercy he was not killed. _

Ndval aria IYlllltary Inteiligeuce.

On the 29th of June the English squadron, under
Lord Lyons, was in the roadstead of Leghorn.
The depots of the 35th Regiment and the Ist
battalion of the 60th Rifles, at Chatham, have re-
ceived orders to furnish 210 non-commissioned offi-
cers and men, to join the service companies of their
regiments'in the Bengal presidency. The number
furnished by each of the above corps will be-35th
Regiment, 141 men ; and 60th Rifles, 69 men, the
whole of whom will embark at Gravesend on Wed-
nesday next, on board the East India Company's
troop-ship Ellenborough, in charge of Brevet- 1
Major C. H. S. Spencer and Lieutenant E. R.
King-Harman, 60th Rifles, and Lieutenant J.
Davis, 35th Regiment. A supply of the Enfield
rifle muskets will be forwarded to India.
Tuesday morning the head-quarters of the 50th
Regiment consisting of 16 officers and about 300
men, under the command of Colonel Waddy, C. 8.,
went on board the Captain Cook transport, lying
at Kingstown, the remaining companies having
sailed the day before in the Medina, for Ceylon.
It is highly probable, however, that their destina-
tion may be changed to the seat of war in India.
The troops belonging to the Royal Engineers at
Chatham are engaged in making extensive opera-
tions for seine grand siege operations, which are
expected to take place at Chatham early in the en-
suing month. The attack will take place on the
field works near St. Mary's, outside the fortifica-
tions of the garrison.
A court-martial assembled yesterday on board
the flag ship Waterloo, Capt. Henry Harvey, C. 8.,
(Cc., at Sheerness, to try Mr. Livesay, acting mate
on board her Majesty's sloop Arab, at Chatham, on
the following charges :-Ist. For that he, the said
Mr. Richard Livesay, being in actual service and
full pay of her Majesty's fleet, and acting mate of
and belonging to, her Majesty's sloop Ara, did, on
or about the 13th day of May, 1857, on the quar-
ter-deck of the said sloop, strike at senior lieuten-
ant John Trevenen, his superior officer. 2d. For
that he, the said Mr. Richard Livesay, being in
actual service and full pay of her Majesty's fleet,
and acting mate of, and belonging to her Majesty's
sloop Arab, did, in the presence of Commander
Richard Bulkelen Pearse, his commanding officer,
on or about the 14th day of May, 1857, while
investigating the above charge on the quarter-deck
of the said sloop, and hearing the evidence of the
senior lieutenant, interrupt that officer, and
threaten to strike him. Captain John Jervis
Tucker presided. The court, after bearing evidence
and the statement of the prisoner in defence, was
of opinion that both charge's were proved agains
the prisoner, and they adjudged him to be dis

mused from her Majesty's service and to be ren•
tiered ineligible at any future time to be again
entered into the service.

The Ganges, 84 guns commissioned at Sheerness
by Lieutenant Henry B. Phillimore, has been taken
into No. 3 dry dock for complete survey of

wich, the Secretary of State for War, with a
view of encouraging deserving non-commis-
sioned officers and soldiers, has stated that he

rewards for good services ; and that in future
he will place only on his list the names of such
men as his Royal Highness the General Command-
