testing the abilities of the officer who has been deputed
to conuet us through the many difficulties that must
necessarily beset us.
I am not disposed to make invidious comparisons;
nevertheless I venture to say that the man who accom-
plishes What a Ross failed in must be possyssed of ,no
ordinary qualities, whether as regards nautical skill,
physical prowess or scientific knowledge. To be a suc-
cessful Arctic navigator he must not only be a thorough-
bred, experienced seaman of untiring energy, coolness,
and discretion, but be must have the power of quick
thought and the ready application of it—capable of
taking a sapid survey of the ohjects .before him, so
as to enable him instantaneously to exercise his own
judgment, without having recourse to the advice of
others.

'ln making the above remarks I do not breathe a doubt
that the gallant commander of the expedition possesses
those qualifications calculated to encounter and over-
come the thousand difficulties attendant on an Arctic
campaign.
P.S.—FURTHER INTELLIGENCE.—Yesterday five sail
of whalers were observed, standing to the southward.
Captain Penny passed here a month ago. So much
E:r that euergettc and daring seaman.
The American expedition has also passed.
Clothing issued as presents to the crews of tho ex-
pedition.

TUESDAY, JUNE 18.—Received by every officer and
man—One blue box cloth jacket; one pair ditto
trousers; one Guernsey frock, blue; one pair drawers;
one pair fisherman's boots; one southwester; two pairs
boot hose; one belt lined with flannel; and one com-
forter.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE Fll,Oll DISCO.
We have na more space far private correspondence
to-day, and only subjoin the latest news of the expe-
dition.

The transport, Emma Eugenia, Lieut. Pawn., agent,
was clearrA at noon on Sunday, June 23, parties having
been at work all three preceding nights, and at 2.30,
Resolute, Captain Austin, C.B , and ..4.*sistance, Cap-
tain Ommann,y, were towed out by their bc re 7v-tender4
Pioneer, Lieutenant-Commander o.borne, and In-
trepid, Lieutenant-Commander I3ertie Cator; and it is
stated by those who witnessed their departure, that a
more eheerrul merry party never started on a pleasure
excursion. Their advance northward must have been
rapid, f.:.s the breezo came up fresh at midnight from
the southward.

The following day the United States schooner, Ad-
vance, Commander Da Haven, on a similar mission,
arrived. Her consort, the Rescue, joined her on the
27th, and on the 29th they pushed on all well, and full
of hope.
The Emma Eugenia transport, after much labour,
completed ballasting by the 3d July, and sailed for Eng-
land at eight o'clock in the evening. No news had ar-
rived from the northward up to that date. We regret
to add that the Danish Governor at Disco Island died
on the 26th June, much lamented by all in his district.

for the town and county of Newcastle, propose to have
eafficirint acceisslo-this cone-, and I propose to hale that
iloor open.
Sir U. Mom: lc—We cannot have it open.
Ilia LORDSRIP—But I will have it open, and I r ill
fine any one who opposes its beitng opened.
Sir C. Monck—Then inmt lc ave it to your Lorii-
ship's discretion to fine us. We cannot have it opened.
His LORDMIP—Then I desire that that door be left
open.

Sir C. Monck—We cannot have it, my Lord; we

using it ourselves. We cannot have it. The Queen's
justices aro witg it.
His LORDSHIP—Put I supersede your authority.
Sir C. Alonek—We cannot have it; we are bitting in
petty. sessions.
Ilia LORDS/UP—Then I shall order the High Sheriff
to °pea that door. I am here on the county buainebs
under the Queen's commission.
Sir C. Monck—That room cannot be made a lobby or
a pissage.
H's LORDSIIIP —Suppose I wish to consult my brother
CressNvell. as I do, on this case?
Sir C. Monck—There is a way out round (pointing to
the ordinary passages of the court, which were deuse'y
crowded).

His LORDSIIIP.—Oh! round Caere. I cannot ent r into
unseemly dispute. You will at your own peril refuse
what I have requested.
Sir Charles Monek—We did not raise the dispute.
His LORDSHIP—Yeg, you aro doing so.
Sir Charles Monck— Well, if you choose to exercise
your own authority, you must do so.
His LORDSHIP—I do so.
Sir Charles Monck—lf you choose to break through
that sulyardierve authority we have, you must do so.
His LORDSHIP—Then perhaps the better way would
be, instead of your raising the unseemly noise of the
High Sheriff breaking open the door by my order, that
you should now make all the protest you can, and retire.
Sir Charles Munck—Oh, no; that won't do; we are
using the room.
His LORDSIIIP—I wish at this moment to pass
through.
Sir Charles Monck—Specially we will permit it.
His LORDSHIP—Is the High Sheriff here?
The High Sheriff 1- ere stepped forward, and, pre-
ceding his Lordship, immediately led the way through
the disputed door, followed by his Lordship.
It is unnecessary to say that this unseemly and die-
. .

graceful scene in the middle of a trial for murder—the
wretched man in the dock having fallen back half in-
sensible, whilst his life wax in the hands of the jury then
deliberating on his fate—excited but one feeling of dis-
gust in the court. This was neither the time nor the
occasion in which to obtrude the wretched local squab-
bles of the town and county justices before the public,
to say nothing of the manner in whieh it was done.
The jury haring returned, after an absence of about
twenty minutes, found the prisoner Guilty of wilful
murder.

The prisoner, who was supported by the police, and
appeared to be half insensible, having been called upcn
" what he had to pay why sentence of death should not
be passed upon him according to law,"
His LORDSHIP put on the black cap, and proceeded to
pass sentence on the prisoner in the most selema man-
ner. The prisoner, after a careful trial, had been found
guilty of the crime of wilful murder of his wife, under
circumstances of the utmost horror. It did not become
him to aggravate the sufferings which he them appeared
to endure. For him now this world was no more. What
a dreadful picture did this case prezeat of the conse-
quence of intoxication? If the prisoner's untimely fate
should operate as a warning to all of the fatal conse-
quences of intoxication, he would not die in vain. He
could hold out to the prisoner no hope of mercy. He
must prepare for the worst, and by earnest prayer and
sincere repentance endeavour to obtain that mercy in
He even which was denied to him on earth. His Lordship
then passed the awful sentence of death in t•he usual
form, and the prisoner was removed fc.,,m the dock, ap-
parently nearly insensible.

THE BOROUGH OF LAMBETH.
The vacant seat in the representation of Lambeth is
likely to be very warmly contested. All the candidates
who have as yet presented themselves seem to be very
nearly of the same political creed. Mr. W. Williams
and Mr. J. H. Palmer are the two gentlemen who, up to
the present moment, appear to be most deeply com-
mitted to the constituency, and to be most in earnest in
their intention to go to the poll. Their handbills are
posted up in every conspicuous place throughout the
borough; they have committees established, and all the
usual preparations fir an electioneering contest set on
foot. Mr. Williams relies upon the support of the Lam-
beth Electoral Association, the immortal eight," as
they are called on the placards. Mr. Palmer, on the
other hand, appt a.rs to rest his hopes of success on local
grounds, and especially on the support of the Dissenters,
who are reminded by his party that Mr. Williams sup-
ported the Maynooth grant. Both the candidates ad-
dressed crowded meetings of electors last night, and
were well received by them. Mr. Palmer's friends as-
sembled at the New Inn, in Westminster-road, and
those of Mr. Williams in the Waterloo rose. Their
speeches were principally directed to the subject of en-
larging the franchise and vote by ballot. The following
characteristic circular was issued yesterday to the
electors of the borough by Sir Charles Napier:—
" Gentlemen,—lf you would like to be represented by
a sailor, I am ready._

" You know how I have exposed waste of public
money b•)th in and out of Parliament, and I am ready to
do so again.

" It is impossible to canvass you in person, and I will
not insult you by sending paid canvaisers.
" Before the election I will hold public meetings, and,
if favourably received, will appear on the hustings on
the day of election.
" 18, Albemarle-street, Atm. 1."

THE LONDON AND BRIGHTON AND SOUTH

EASTERN RAILWAYS.
Yesterday, in pursuance of the Act of Parliament for
the partition of the existing station belonging to
these companies at London bridge, and for its immediate
extensive enlargement, workmen commenced demolish-
ing the whole of the large building that has hitherto
fronted the approach to the railway, remarkable for the
elevation at which it stood, and its neat Italian fagide.
The operation had been delayed owing to the difficulty the
companies had experienced in obtaining possession of the
lard occupied by St. Olave's school, for which the South-
Eastern Company have had to find a site for the erec-
tion of new buildings. Owing to the very limited and
inconvenient accommodation at the existing station tor
the Continental, South-Coast, and North Kent traffic,
the enlargement and improvement have been for some
time imperatively called for, and on the entire removal
of the building, which will be in a day or two, a large
open area will be obtained, extending some 200 yards
behind the present station, and presenting a space of
some 300 yards in breadth, which will be devoted to the
accommodation of the vehicles arriving for the trains,
and as a promenade for passengers in waiting.
A temporary station, at which all the trains will de-
part and arrive, to be opened to-day, has been erected
by the Brighton Company, at the end of the enlarged
area, with all necessary booking offices and waiting-.
rooms. The South-Eastern Company have also their
temporary station abutting upon Tooley-street. The
cost of the enlargement is estimated by the Brighton
C onpany not to exceed 150,0004; and they do not con-
sider that the enlargement will be a loss to them, as they
were paying two-thirds of the expense of the joint
station, most of the servants connected with which Lave
received a month's notice. Could the same amount of space
have been obtained nearer to London-bridge, on land
b-longing to St. Thomas's Hospital, the permanent
station would have been far nearer to that central point;
but as the governors of the hospital required 500,0001.
for the land and property to be taken, the intention
could not be carried out. From to-day the two corn-
pinies work their traffic independently, and what has
been termed " the joint-station" system ceases.

AQ UATICS.
DOGGETT'S COAT AND BADGE.

This very old established aquatic conteht, upon which
tho popular musical farce of the Waterman is founded,
took place yesterday, and, as usual, collected a vast as-
semblage of spectators. To the livery cad badge " be-
queathed by Mr. Thomas Doggett, a famous comedian,
in commemoration of the happy accession of the family
of her present Majesty to the Throne of Great Britain,"
have been added from time immemorial the interest,
amounting to about 71, on South Sea Stock, the gift of
the late Sir W. Jolliffe, to be divided between the second
and third man, in proportions of five-eights and three-
eighths ; but upon the present occasion the Fishmon-
gers' Company, who have the control of this wager,
kindly awarded a guinea, in addition to the livery and
badge, for the winner; 11. 110. 6d. to the fourth man,
and a guinea elch to the fifth and sixth. The distance
was, as usual, from the Swan at London-bridge to the.
Swan at Chelsea. _

Joseph Wyld, Lambeth... ..• ..•
• ••• ••• ••• 6
The race was as usual ably conducted by
Mr. Dards,
bargemaster to the Fishmongers' Company, who took
his seat as umpire in a cutter. At twenty minutes to
two, about a quarter of an hour before low water, the
whole of the wager-men effected a capital start, all turn-
ing their boats' heads over to the south shore, and ap-
plying themselves most vigorously to their work. Al-
most immediately after the start, however, a slight fcul
occurred between Wyld and Howard, which necessarily
had the effect of delaying both for a little. Scarcely a
dozen strokes had bean taken, when Campbell (the
winner of Mr. P. Morris's coat, badge, and freedom for
apprentices at the Grand Thames Regatta, and nephew
of the celebrated ex-champion) began to show in advance,
and just about Southwark-bridge was four clear lengths
in advance, at which place Cannon and Gawte were
scull and scull, both rowing with great spirit, and Hun-
tineord about three lengths astern of them. From
this moment to the end of the race Campbell, whose form
of rowing was very capital, never gave his opponents a
shadow of a chance. He increased his advantage at
every stroke, and did what few of his predecessors have
ever done, won by nearly a quarter' of a mile with ap-
parent ease. The three other men formed a gallant
race right to the finish, especially Cawte and Cannon,
who exhibited considerable game, and passed and re-
patsed each other in their way up. The contest be-
tween them was continued with great spirit up to Mil-
bank, where Cawte began to shake his opponent off, and
Cannon subsequently gave place at the upper end of
Thames-bank to Huatingford. There was about fifty
yards distance in coating in between the second and
third men, but the last two were completely hailed.
The men were afterwards regaled with a substantial
repast at the Old Swan, and the winners subsequently_
duly presented at headquarters to receive the award of
victory.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
GOODWOOD RACES.
The " grand day" could scarcely have come off under
more favourable circumstances—the card was a bumper,
having the Cup for its staple and most exciting feature,
and two or three other events of considerable interest.
The weather was favourable, and the attendance, thanks
to the considerate policy of the Brighton Railway offi-
cials in timing and pricing the trains to afford accommo-
dation to all classes, very large. It would be absurd to
say that in any respect it equalled what we have seen on
many previous Cup days, still it gave evidence that
Goodwood hilts lost little of its attraction. If our other
duties did not prevent it, the crowded state of the stand
would render it impossible to. give a list of the principal
visitors; suffice it that the Goodwood and MolecOtnb
parties, and a great many titled or fashionable prrsoas
not present on the previtius days, wars on 'the course,
giving an •Cekt to the sceLe which no 'other meeting in
the-country can approach. The racing was remarkable
first,. for, an unlucky contretemps, by which the Good-
wood party and the " fielders, after seeing their pet
first past the winning chair, had the cup dashed from
their consequence of his having swerved against
the favourite at the finish; and,' secondly, by the defeat
of Windisehgratz for the Cup, Canezou a second time
