•
Messrs. Miller, Ravenhill,
new iron steamer for the Si

intended to ply from Londoi
in length, 18 feet three inch,

dO-horse power engines, also
boilers. As a river boat, h , perk syrrn...,ry—
speed is the leading object, and her form is scientifically
adapted to its accomplishment.
The Meteor yesterday made an experimental trip down the
Thames from Blackwall. There were on board, besides the
builders, Mr. Benkhausen, the Russian Consul, a Russian
naval captain, Sir C. Forbes, and between 20 and 30 gentle •
men connected with science, the arts, and literature, forming
a most, agreeable party, and the pleasures of the day were
much increased by splendid weather.
The experiment was altogether satisfactory. The Meteor
is worthy of her name. Considering the power of her en-
gines, her speed is astonishing. With the tide she performed
from 18 to 20 miles an hour. Her still-water speed was
fully 156, miles an hour.
the course of the day she was laid alongside of the
Ruby, and several of the fast boats, but they had no chance
with her. The grand point of interest was her contest with
the Prince of Wales, which she met about ten miles below
Gravesend in full steam, with a moderate quota of passen-
gers on board. While the Prince of Wales was in advance
she gained in the ratio of one mile in fifty on the Meteor ;
but when the Meteor led she had a similar advantage over
the Prince of Wales. The result is, that the two boats are
equal in speed ; but, then, the Prince of Wales is ten feet
longer than the Meteor, and has two 70-horse power en-
gines, whereas those of the latter are only 40-horse power.
As a specimen of river steamers, the Meteor is unquestion-
ably superior to everything up to the present time afloat upon
the Thames.

The Meteor left Blackwall about half-past eleven, and
was kept in motion till after sunset. Her machinery worked
with all the precision and effect of long practice. Messrs.
Miller, Ravenhill, and Co. may well be proud of their
achievement.

The company on board sat down to an elegant cold colla-
tion, laid out in the ample saloon, and the best wines flowed
in abundance. Mr. Miller presided; Mr. Ravenhill took the
vice chair. Of course her Majesty was toasted; nor did the
company forgot " Success to the new Steamer, and Prosperity
to her Architects."

In looking through the yard from whence were produced
these unequalled " walkers of the waters," the Prince of
Wales and the Meteor, we observed on the stocks two ♦ery
handsome iron steamers in a forward state, one intended for
the Nile and the other for the Rhine.

FATAL STEAM-BOAT COLLISION.
MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE OFF GREENWICH.
Yesterday forenoon an inquiry was commenced before Mr.
Baker, at the Queen's head Tavern, High-street, Poplar, re-
specting the death of Mr. Samuel Theodore Lebatt, aged 23,
oue of the principals at Hermangild Castellani and Co.'s, in
Copthall-court, the Belgian Consul, who lost his life by fall-
ing from the Cameleon yacht, occasioned, it is alleged, by
her being run into by the Royal Adelaide Leith steam-ship.
Owing to the respectability of the deceased more than usual
interest was manifested during the proceedings, and was in-
creased from the circumstance of there being some very gross
neglect on the part of the crew on board the steamer.
Prior to the evidence being gone into, the Coroner observed
that he should like to be informed of a few of the facts of the
case, as, in the event of there being blame attributable to
those persons who had charge of the steam-ship, he should
wish them to be in attendance. A young gentleman, whose
name did not transpire, stated that he was one of a
party who, along with the deceased, went on board the
Cameleon yacht on Saturday, for the purpose of
cruizing down the river for a few days. They were
delayed a short time in Blackwall-reach, when the vessels
in the Royal Thames Yacht Club sailing match being per-
ceived, they further delayed their cruize, and got up as far
as Greenwich Hospital to see the yachts come in. Here,
owing to the state of the tide and wind, they were obliged
to anchor. They remained there till ten o'clock at night,
and, having procured two watermen from Greenwich, de-
termined to proceed on their trip. As soon as the anchor•
was hove up, and the vessel being what is called in stays,
the steamer was observed coming down the river._ They
hailed to shove on board, but her paddles were not stopped
until she had gained within a few yards of the Cameleon,
too late to prevent a collision, and the consequence was
that she struck their vessel on the starboard quarter. The
deceased had but a few minutes before gone down in the
cabin to sleep for a few hours, singing, as he went down the
companion ladder, the pilot's song, '• Fear not, but trust in
Providence," and hearing some confusion he rushed upon
deck, and, it was supposed, must have been thrown over-
board by the shock and struck by the paddles, as he was an
excellent swimmer, and had saved two young ladies from
drowning in Portsmouth harbour, for which heroism he had
bean presented with a gold medal and vote of thanks by the
Royal Humane Society. His parents resided at Ramsgate,
his father being Lloyd's agent for that port.
The CORONER here said that he should only take the evi-
dence as to the identity and finding of the body, and adjourn
the inquiry for the attendance of the parties connected with
the steamer.

Mr. Joseph Norton Lebatt, of No. 3, Copthall-court, Bank,
deposed that the deceased was his brother. He last saw him
alive on Saturday afternoon, at his office, and was about to
proceed on board the Cameleon, which was about twelve tons
burthen. He was then in good health and perfectly sober.
Witness has since seen his body, and noticed a redish
mark, extending down the whole of his nose, and to his left
eye, no doubt produced by the paddle-wheels of the steamer
striking him.
Henry Marston, Thames police-constable, stated that at
about half-past three o'clock on Sunday afternoon he dis-
covered the body of the deceased gentleman on the banks, on
the Isle of Dogs, opposite Greenwich. It had been left by
the tide, and had no shoes, coat, or hat on. On searching
him, IL Ils. 7d. was found in his waiscoat pocket, and the
front part of his dress was disordered.
The CORONER then formally adjourned the inquiry, and
lound_over the several jurymen and witnesses to appear on
Wednesday week to further prosecute the investigation.

THE CZAR'S VISIT.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Perhaps you have not inserted the letter I sent
you on the 6th inst., because of its length. Now, I shall
compress this as much as possible, hoping you will this
time, in justice to me and Captain Jablonski, give, in
your next, publication to it, as I am anxious to contra-
dict the report so detrimental to us and so misrepresent-
ing our sentiments on the subject. The paragraph al-
luded to, I believe, originated in a mistake of your re-
porter, and afterwards found it way to the Chronicle and
other respectable journals.
To show the real state of things, I beg to inform you
that on the 3d of this month, on the occasion of the an-
niversary meeting of the Literary Association of the
Friends of Poland, I spoke not a word of the Czar. It
would be foolish, and against his interest, in a Polish
exile, to wish to prevent the better part of the people of
this country to express, in any way they like, their sen-
timents against the oppressor of Poland ; and I do as-
sure you, that my Gallant Friend spoke in a spirit quite
reverse to that which the article alluded to represents
him. I am, Sir,
Your humble, obedient servant,

May 11, 1844.

To a deputation from the City, which recently
waited on Sir Robert Peel, with the view of inducing her
Majesty's Government to increase the amount of duty they
have proposed to Parliament to levy on foreign coffee, the
Right Hon. Baronet is understood to have given a firm but
respectful refusal.
BARBAROUS MURDER.—On Sunday week a hor--
rible murder was perpetrated in the parish of Cloone, county
Leitrim, by a gang of assassins, during the hours of Divine
service. In consequence of the illness of his wife, Mr. Thomas
Nash, a respectable Protestant, was obliged to remain at
home, contrary to his custom ; and at mid-day he was sur-
prised by an armed party entering his house and demanding
his fire-arms. He resisted the demands of the lawless ruffians
with determination ; but, grievous to relate, he fell in mortal
combat with his assailants. His poor wife crept from her
bed of sickness, and, with his sister, Mrs. Brown, assisted in
the struggle against the assassins, one of whom struck Mrs.
Nash upon the head with a pistol, and another, at the same
moment, darted a sword through the body of Mr. Nash. Mrs.
Nash exclaimed, "I am murdered !"—her husband re-
sponded, " I am gone !" and almost instantly breathed his
last. An inquest was held on the body, but nothing calcu-
lated to lead to a discovery of the blood-stained monsters has
been elicited. A Government reward of 801. has been offered
for their detection.—lrish Paper.
PONY MATCH BETWEEN LONDON AND BRIGHTON.
The following somewhat extraordinary match against time
was performed on Thursday last by Mr. Jenkins, of No. 28,
Shoppertou-street, Lower-road, Islington who for a wager
undertook to drive, in harness, a pony, thirteen hands high,
from the Angel Inn, Islington, to the Prince George Inn,
Brighton, and back the same day, the pony to start from the
former place at six o'clock in the morning, and return there-
at by twelve o'clock at night, a distance of 108 miles. After
driving from Highbury Mr. Jenkins made his appearance,
with the pony attached to a light gig, at the place and time
appointed, whence he started, and baited on the road to
Brighton at the following places, viz. :—Streatham, Croydon,
Godatone, and Linfield, and arrived at the Prince George
Tavern, Brighton, kept by Mr. Roots, at one o'clock in the
afternoon, where, after resting half an hour, the' pony was
started on his road to London, making a stay of one hour at
each of the following places, viz., Linfield, Grodstone, and
Croydon ; and Mr. Jenkins arrived at the place he started
from in the morning at twenty minutes past eleven o'clock
at night, being forty minutes within the given time. But
what renders the feat the more extraordinary is, that the
pony is nearly eleven years old, and rather " groggy" in his
fore legs. He, however, when in full swing, has a most re-
markable carriage, with no appearance whatever of the fault
mentioned. On arriving at home after accomplishing this
journey the pony did not-appear to be at all distressed, and
looked as if he was then quite prepared to perform a similar
task. During his journey the pony was refreshed with gruel
and with a small quantity of port wine.
We regret to have to announce the death of
Alexander Johnston, Esq., of Shieldhall, M.P. for the Kil-
marnock District of Burghs, which took place very suddenly
at Rothesay, on the morning of Thursday, the 9th instant,
where Mr. Johnston had been residing for the benefit of his
health. Mr. Johnston contested the Ayr Burghs, in 1834,
with Lord James Stuart, and was only thirteen below his
noble opponent, who owed his seat to the influence of the
Argyll family. He sat for Kilmarnock since the last general
election, having beat Mr. Colquhoun, of Killermont, by a
majority of eleven. Mr. Johnston was a consistent and zeal-
ous Reformer.—Scotch R
=eformers' Gazette.
THE LASH AT OOLWlCH.—Yesterday, before
seven o'clock, another of those disgusting exhibitions took
place at the rear of the Royal Artillery Barracks. The whole
of the troops were assembled on the parade, to hear the sen-
tence of a garrison court-martial read, which had been held
upon gunner and driver Bell, of the 7th battalion Royal Ar-
tillery, for having sold his regimental necessaries, also steal-
ing other regimental accoutrements belonging to his com-
rades, and also absenting himself without leave from his
quarters for some days, till compelled to return under charge
of an escort—of all which charges be was found guilty, and
sentenced to receive 150 lashes, and then to be drummed out
of the service. yesterday the culprit was tied to the tri-
angles to receive the punishment awarded him, and the
scene of horror commenced. After the punishment was over,
the culprit was marched off to the Ordnance Hospital; and
when he is well enough to leave it, he will be drummed out
of the service.
On Wednesday morning, says the Quotidienne,
about half-past eight, a gentleman was passing through the
Rue Mazagran, when a man, pale and emaciated, came up
to him and said, " I am dying of hunger, I have not eaten
anything these two days." The gentleman took out some
money, and giving him some, returned the rest into his waist-
coat pocket. " Give me all," said the man, "or I plunge my
knife in your body." The gentleman, nothing frightened at
this, attempted to seize on the fellow, but he took to flight
and escaped.
