TIIE NOVEL OF THE SEASON.
Now ready at every Library, in 3 vols.,
•MISER'S SECRET.

the floor, and he did not fall on to his heal. Prisoners
under sentence of death are not at all fettered.
By the CORONER—When I went round to inspect the
other cells there Was no one with him iu the cell.
Timothy Donovan, 12, Bell-court, Gray's Inn-lane,
said, he was a blacksmith, and brother of deceased, who
always appeared in good health, and he (witness) never
heard him complain of pains in the head. When he got
drunk, which he often did, he was rather abusive, but
he was a very quiet and civil man when sober. The last
time witness saw him was at the Bew-street police court
Frederick Walden examined—l am attendant in the
infirmary of this prison, and saw deceased after sen-
tence had been passed oa him. Ho was partly crying,
and said he was not guilty. of what he had been charged
with. When I was caliel from the infirmary to his cell
I found him on his back on the floor, with his knees up.
I told the turnkey to remove him immediately to the
bath-room, and that I would go immediately for the
doctor; 'which I did. I
did not find our own doctor at
home, so I went for another, and when I came back I
found two medical gentlemen from St:Bartholomew's
flenpital in attendance. When I first saw him in the
cell, after he had been cot down, he did not appear to
me to be alive.
By a Juror—Thera is not always a surgeon in the
prison. I had to go to Hatton-garden for the assistant-
surgeon, but did 'lot take a cab. Both the chief sur-
geon and the assistant-surgeon visit the prison daily.
Mr. Sewell, the assistant-surgeon of the prison, said
he saw deceased about half-past three o'clock on Friday.
Two or three other medical men had seen him before,
and remedies had been adopted to save him. They were
the usual and proper remedies in such cases. Did not
think if a medical man had been present at the moment
life would have been saved, as the proper remedial means
had been immediately carried into effect by the prison
officials. Deceased died from the effects of banging.
The DEPUTY-CORONER then summed up the evidence,
and said, the points the jury had to consider were,
whether the deceased had died from hanging, and whether
he had hanged himself; and if so in what state of mind
he was at the time.
The jury consulted for a long time, and 12 of them
were of opinion that deceased had hung himself whilst in
an unsound state of mind; the remaining 11 consid,red
that he was not. A verdict was then recorded of " Tem-
porary insanity," according to the decisionof the majority.
The second inquest, on the body of Watts, was then
proceeded with.
Mr. Cope, the governor of the prison, examined—De-
ceased was brought up on the 16th of April last on two
charges, for stealing an order for 1,4001., and a piece of
paper, value ld. He was tried at the following May
sessions of the Criminal Court, and judgment was then
respited on a point of law. Judgment was given on
Friday morning, and the sentence was transportation for
ten years. Ido not know whether the judgment of the
Court of Criminal Appeal, which was adverse to him,
was made known to him until he was finally brought up
for judgment to receive sentence. His health was bad
when he first came into the prison, and he was under the
doctor's care and in the infirmary ever since, I was in
the court when the final sentence was passed on him.
and he appeared to be in pretty good spirits after hr
had heard the sentence. I did not think he appeared at
all depressed. In my books he is described as a clerk,
and his age is recorded to be 33. After the sentence
had been passed he was taken back into the infirmary,
where I saw him on Friday evening. The occurrence
happened in the middle of the right, and until a quarter,
to four o'clock this morning I knew nothing of it, when
I was sent for. There were four prisoners in the same
room with him, and Walden, the infirmary assistant,
slept in a room adjoining. When I was called they told
me he bad been dead for some time.
William Smith, a prisoner, examined—l was in the
itifirmary last night, and I know the person who is
dead, Mr. Watts, who was also there. I have been in
the infirmary since last Tuesday, and had conversations
with deceased, who appeared in excellent spirits. I saw
him s ,on after he was sentenced, and he did not appear
at all different from what he had been before. I never
heard him complain of anything being the matter with
him. I sltpt three beds off from him. I and he went
to bed about a quarter to nine last evening. He did not
eat much supper, but he took some medicine about five
minutes before he went to bed. Mr. Weldon gave it to
him. Before he went up to the Central Criminal Court
on Wednesday morning last, he said that he expected to
be imprisoned for twelve months. On that day he was
not sentenced, and he said the judges were not satisfied
with Mr. JuLdice Cresswell's decision, and that they
would write to him into the country, where that learned
judge then was, and that he (Watts) was ordered to
come up again on Friday. Oa that day, when he canto
back to the infirmary, he said he had gat transported for
ten years, but he seemed as usual. He also said that he
had expected that sentence after what the judges had
told Lien on Weadnesday morning. I went to bed at
nine, and woke again at twelve o'clock last night. All was
then quiet. I awoke again at three, and lay awake until
a quarter to four th,s morning. I then turned round in
my bed, and missed Mr. Watts, and, seeing his slippers
and boots under his bed, I then thought something
strange was the case, and being sore that he had not got
up between three o'clock and a quarter to four I sus-
pected that something was wrong. I awoke the prisoner
next to me, and communicated to him my suspicions.
He immediately jumped out of bed, and went to the
water-closet at the other end of the infirmary, and he
called for a knife, saying Mr. W atts was there hanging
quite dead and cold. I went—the other prisoner's name
was Shipton—and saw Mr. Watts there. We rang the
bell for the officer. Deceased was hanging suspended by
a bit of cord fastened by the side of his neck from some
bars across a window, which was over and by the side of
the water-closet. The feet of the deceased were just
touching the ground and were tied together with a silk-
handkerchief. He was banging about a foot from the
seat of the water-closet. I think I could reach the bars
of the window from the ground; he was hanging quite
perpendicularly, with his back to the wall and his eyes
wide open. When we called for assistance, Mr. Waldon
Came with a knife and the deceased was cut down, and
Shipton took him and laid him on the floor of the in-
firmary. A doctor was sent for, although Mr. Watts was
quite dead. He was in his shirt, with a napkin on his
chest and a locket suspended from his neck.

that was wanting. All the knives are given back after
every meal, and deceased had one to cut his dinner and
supper with on Friday. I never heard him say anything
about doing away with himself—quite the other way.
He was always in full spirits, and did not appear to me
to be ill.
By Mr. David Wire—l em certain that during the
three-quarters of an hour that I was awake deceased did
not go to the water-closet.
Mr. M'Murdo, chief surgeon to the prism), examined—
Deceased was first brought under my notice and care at
Giltspur-street prison, whither he had been remanded
before he was brought here. He was then in a state
bordering on delirium tremens, caused by drink. People

e remainedtithis prison

a throughout under
mg
whole of his im • prisonment until his death. I saw him
in Newgate daily, and so did my assistant and my son,
who is also a surgeon. He had been getting better since
ho was imprisoned, and had become more cheerful. He
had taken medicine and was able to bear the diminution
of the stimulus at first administered, and was in good
spirits apparently. He was very cheerful throughout,
and very well conducted towards all. He was con-
tinually complaining of headaches, but said they were
diminishing, and I still thought it right to keep him in
the infirmary. He was a very excitable person, but it is
very difficult to say whether an unexpected sentence
would derange his brain or not. He frequently repeated
that he had had a great deal of difficulty about his
theatres, and in other ways.
Robert Shiptcn, a prisoner in the infirmary, ex-
amined—l spoke to Mr. Watts somewhere about nine
o'clock on the Friday evening. Our conversation
was about the prison ruler. We went to bed
without wishing one another good night, which
was not usual. He appeared very cheerful, as was
his custom. I went to sleep, and Ras awoke in the
morning, at a quarter to four o'clock, by William Smith,
who said that Mr. Watts was not in bed nor in the
ward. I jumped up in a fright, and made the beat of my
way to the water-closet, the only place I thought he could
go to. When I opened the door I saw him hanging by
a piece of rope from the first cross bur o f the window,
which is in part over and part by the side of the seat of
the water-closet. I immediately called out for a knife,
and whilst they were
bringing it I took hold of his hand,
and found it quite cold and stiff. The officer brought
the knife, and I held the body. up, and he cut the rope,
and I took deceased into the infirmary, e was quite
dead, and I carried him in ndy arms like a piece of
timber. I have been in the infirmary five weeks, and
the knives we use at our meals are always taken away
and put into a cupboard.
Mr. Sewell, the assistant-surgeon, said that he was
called that morning a little befote four o'clock. He came
immediately to the prison, and
..found deceased quite
dead, and he must have been so

After a few remarks from
the CORONER, the jury imme-
diately returned an unanimous v.rnict of " 'Temporary
insanity."

place he might wish to visit. teeelnough he enjoyei a
good salary, it was a matter of'f astonishment to many
how he could keep up such ane appearance, more espe-
cially as he was in the habit of giving, on frequent oc-
casions, champagne breakfasts as d other expensive en-
tertainments. Prior to taking 'sit her the Marylebone or
Olympic Theatre, he mined frecos ently with betting men,
and according to his own e.ccol it t was lucky enough to
win considerab'e sums 'of money. From what has since
transpired, there is every reason:(-to believe the; instead
of his gaining such large sum as he had represent sd,
he was a considerable loser by ti; ,s, speculations. His de-
falcations to the Globe Insuranc e Company reached, it
is said, to nearly 80,0001., a sm ii l portion of which will
have to be made good by his be (amen.—Observer.
The career of Donovan' v Aar) was termex-
pugilist, was one of great di, sepation and rid an
eot. In a
moment of bitt-r passion he ,hurled his wife °et ot
window, and how she escaped ,1 immediate d-struction
appears marvellous. The Lee rnsd Judge before whom
he was tried, Baron Alderson --Justices Patti eon and
Talfeurd being also on the benel a. —apparently took more
than his usually great pains in t 31 inning the facts.
The principal witnesses again s t Donovan were his two
children and his wife. Baron iLlderson had the children
placed on a bench near him, aad his Lordship, with
considerable care, questioned t.a em as t) the knowledge
of the obligation of an oath, a n d pointed out the awful
position of their parent, and the necessity of their telling
the truth. Donovan cross-e.c amined them at some
length, as also his wife, with ne uch seriousness, with a
view of showing that she eitheLe jumped or tumbled out
of the window. The fact was ot altered, however; the
jury found him guilty, and, it being a capital offence,
sentence of death was recorded :against him. Previous to
,
his trial he was classed with ' the untried prisoners;
but on leaving the .dock after ais condemnation he was
conveyed to one of the old con &tallied cells at the ex-
treme north angle of the gaol. Although probably im
proved, it continues a dismal -looking place, being 12
feet by 10, and lighted by a 'window in the passage.
How he could have succeeded i, z destroying himself with-
out the watcher In the paserg a. seeing him, if he really
was on duty, is a matter whi &s will, no doubt, be in-
quired into by the Court of Al clermen.
With reference to the convi et Walter Watts, there is
little doubt that the unfortunat iy man was led to believe
that the circumstance of his ix rit ig a partner and share-
holder in the Globe Insurance ,Company, would be suf-
ficient in the eye of the law 1 .43 absolve him from the
criminal charges brought again kat him. On being brought
up on Wednesday morning, an d hearing the opinion ot
Baron Alderson, and the result, of his application to the
Court of Appeal, he prepar ed. himself for a severe
punishment, and it is possiel, s that he then made up
his mind to commit self-des traction, for the way he
accomplished his object shows that he had meditated
it some time before he could ,)fl'ect it. As will be seen,
ever since his incarceration le e has been an inrnve of
the infirmary, a .comfortable vt .ard on the second floor,
on which are some five or six e a st iron bedsteads, fitted
with sacking, and laced by rop The one occupied by
Watts stood next but one to t eie water-closet door, and
how he managed to remove the .rope from the sacking ot
his bed—for it was with that I,e strangled himsed—
without either exciting the a' it, nation ot the warders or
his fellow-prisoners, is a -rva:t•=r which perplexes
all. The inference, however, Le that he must have
watched his fellow-prisoners to 81 eep, and then raised the
bedding, and removed the line..., The secure manner in
which he fastened it round the bar of the window of the
closet exhibited the determined character of his purpose.
He had passed it round the ha r four or five times, and
by jumping off the seat, the window being about six
feet trom the ground, ended his life in a very prompt
and effective style.
No relative or friend of the doceased oenvict was pre-
sent during the proceedings bet keee the coroner.—Sunday

MINING INTE,LLIGENCE.

-.----..ipb...- ---

The Mining Journal gives thte following notice re-
specting the state of the marl et :
" Much activity has exist 'id in the mining share
market during the week, thou gio it does not appear that
more than an average amount *f bona fide business has
been transacted. Inquiries h a-ve been numerous, but
holders remain firm; while, in a 43 me cases, a considerable
advance in price has taken plar:e.. Among those in re-
quest, we may name Comfort, Sc uth Basset, Mary Ann,
'l'reviskey and Barrier, Trail tellan, North Buller,
Treleigh, &c.
"In Foreign Mines there bas ,been as improvement in
United Mexican, which have a anted hands at an ad-
vance. Copiapo, St. John del Ito y,. Cobre, Linares, and
Suntiego have also been done."
As regards the present s, gate and prospects of
various mining adventures, the' ,same journal states as

follows :
"At North Culler, the Louis %, lode is very much un-
proved, and the prospects are ,considered of a highly
enc .uraging character.
" Mary Ann, Cook's Kitclte n, Holmbush, South
Basset, and Alfred Consols are, Among the improving
mines reported this week.
" A parcel of 30 tons of lead o re, was sold from Llwyn-
melees Aline, on the Bth, at 12/. ss. 6J. per ton.
I! The monthly sale of ore ft m the Kirkcudbright-
shire Mines was 40 tons, which .reo.lised 91. Bs. per tun.
" The North Buller agent rep or.rs, from present pros-
pects, there is every reason to anticipate a productive
and standing mine at a deeper le vet.
" Birch Tor and Vitifer Min es appear to have con-
siderably improved within the b ist month, and the pros-
pects are good.
"It is arranged that the inderton Mine shall bu
worked in conjunction with the Ts,,vistock Consols, us the
United Mines (Tavistock); and ;that the Rix-hill lode,
on which a great improvement Itas taken place, shall be
intersected by a crosscut from flat 3 Anderton shaft at an
80 fm. level, being upwards of 50 fbas. under the deepest
point at which the Rix• hill lode hi s been seen. Also a
cross-cut south, to cut another stn* mg lode in the same
level; and the (80 fm. level east extended through the
cress-course, to cut the two lodes in the Tavistock Con-
sols, which are most highly spok, In of by all practical
miners in the locality. This apve ars to be one of the
most important speculations i a sthe district, and the
amalgamation of the two undert %Icings affords the means
of proving five most promising lodes at from 80 to 100

at a trifling expense. -
" The Guadalcanal report of the committee recom-
mend an issue of 3,000 new sha ros at 21. each, for the
purpose of giving trial to the operations suggested by
Captain Rule, who had inspected' tho mine.
" At the Deep River Colopan, ea meeting a resolution
was passed for dissolving the co) epany. The amount in
hand will allow of about 14s. per share being returned to
such shareholders as have paid )3p.
At the Santiago meeting, t Jae report stated the ore
raised during the last half-year. wes 712 tons, 587 of
which had been sold, realising 5,1091. 103. 2d.; the re-
mainder was estimated at 8471.; making the total return
6,1201. 19s. Id., showing a lo se on the half-year of
1,7771. 17s. 3d. This increase of expenditure was occa-
sioned by opening edits and other works in the new per-
teneecias, on which the main success of the company
would depend, as the old mines had become so poor as
to be suspended.
" Dispatches have been received by the Imperial Bra-
zilian, St. John del Rey, and N ational Brazilian Mining
Companies.
The Imperial Brazilian gold report is to the 22d of
April, giving the amount of produce from Gongo Soco,
from 31 to 22d of April, 2lbs. 9 ozs. 6 dwts.; Bahanal
ditto, 201bs. 0 oz. 12 dwts. = 221,1)(3. 9 ozs. 18 dwts.
" The St. John del Rey letters are to the 27th April,
furnishing the returns for the mot th of March, by which
we learn that a profit of 4,3091. hla. Id. has been made
—the produce being 24,126 ohs. The gold extracted to
the 27th April, 15,300 oits.—being 21 days' stamping,
and the stone continued abundant..
t• The National Brazilian advices are to the 4th of
May—the produce being from Cocaes, from 4th April

to 27th April, mks. 5 7 6 46= 26 7 0 13. The prospects
are considerably more encouragin
" The Linares report to the 29th cf June continues
very favourable, and the quantity of ore raised in June
i= expected to exceed that of May, which was 67 tons.
The total quantity now at the mine, and at Seville,ready
for shipment, is 171 tone, of which from 83 to 84 tons
were dressed in June. The John and William had been
chartered at 6?. per ton, freight to England, and 100
tons are expected to be ready.
" The Alten report has been received, furnishing the
progress of operations from 4th to 24th June. In the
Raipas Mine the water had receded, and they were pre-
paring to set contracts in the most important part of the
I mine. The old mine continues without any important
alteration. The lode in the new sink at Michell's is pro-
ducing some good work."

[PRICE SD.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS

TIMES.—We are somewhat tired of proving that
the marauders defeated by Capt. Farquhar in June of
last year on -the Bornean coast were really pirates.
As appears by the debate of Thursday Mr. Hume, Col.
Thompson, Mr. Cobden, and 2G other gentlemen are
still hard of belief upon this point. Their first idea

was to represent the )39rnean coast ,as a kind of ma-
rine Arcadia, where a series of peaceful regattas was
in course of perpetual celebration for the delight of
all seafaring men who might happen to be passing
that way, has been abandoned. What is now asked
for is distinct evidence that the fleet attacked in June

last was a piratical fleet. Tae appropriate evidence
is forthcoming in the certificate of Sir Christopher
Itiwlinson and in the depositions of the witnesses ex-
amihed before the Commission of September last—we
pass over, of course, the deposition of Sir James Brooke
hiinielf. But Colonel Thompson, Messrs. Hume, Cob-
den, &c., deal with this little difficulty in the simplest
form. They vote this evidence—this direct legal evidence
of the piratical character of the fleet—to be nonex-
isting, and then speak and act as though it existed
not. Be it so. It is satisfactory, however, to find
that in a House of 140 Members they could only find
twenty-six sceptics to go out into the lobby with them
upon this system of ,dealing with fact. We invite
attention to Mr. Drummond's speech, not only be-
cause it is a clever speech and an amusing speech, but
on account of the uncommon decision with which the

Hon. Gentleman persists in coupling the name of
Mr. Wise, Sir J. Brooke's late agent in this country,
with the whole of this agitation. His address to the
House is a mere comment upon the quotation with
which he concludes it—

" Death has no pangslike love to hatred turned,
Nor hell a fury like a traitor scorned."
It appears that a part of Mr. Wise's system has been
,to stir up the religious feelings of the country against
the absent Raja, his late employer. Now he admi-
nistered a persuasive poke to the " Philanthropic So-
ciety," now a " thundering prospectus" emanated from
the " Peace and Aborigines Protectionists," in which
the same inspiration was clearly to be traced. But now
that the ridiculous agitation against Sir James Brooke
has received a coup de grace, we will content our-
selves with referring our readers to Mr. H. Drum-
mond's speech for further particulars on this inte-
resting point. The debate, however, is still more
worthy of notice from the utter and entire abandon-
ment by Mr. Cobden of the charges against Sir
James Brooke. There are no more of the old
flourishes about " the private gentleman sailing in his
yacht" and the sanguinary doings of the ferocious
Baja. Let us do Mr. Cidaden the honour of suppasing
that he is very heartily ashamed of the line of argu-
ment into which he had been seduced, and that so,

like a prudent man, he has dropped the aubject of Sir
J :mei Brooke fur ever. It vas of course necessary

fur him to say something in the debate and
so he fell back upon the old resource of whitewashing
the pirates. Mr. CJbden was one of only 29. We
are anxious, however, before dismissing this subject
to deal with a point which has been a good deal
mentioned. It has been said that Sir James

Brooke was engaged in trading speculations,
and that the mission of the philanthropist was
merely a blind for the huckstering of the pedlar.
Thu 3 his defamers could best hope to inflict damage
upon his character and to shake his position with
the Government. The facts, however, lie
in a very small compass, and may be thus epitomised.
On taking the Government of Sarawak in 1841, Sir
James, then Mr. Brooke, relieved the people from all
taxation whatsoever, except that deriving from work-
ing the antimony ore mines. His private fortune,
although liberally applied, was insufficient to meet
the expenses of the Government. He retained the
mines, therefore, as the means of revenue. He ex-
ported the ore to England and received the proceeds
in money or bills. To relieve himself from the trou-
ble of shipment, and being personally averse to the
kind of detail it involved, he, through his agent,
leased the mines in 1846 to a London house at a fixed

rent or royalty. Oa the bankruptcy of that house in
1847 the lease was virtually surrendered into his
hands, and he exported the ore to England as
before. This process continued until quite re-
cently, when he again effected a lease
with another London house. Such are lite-
rally the facts upon which the accusation rests.
Sir James Brooke does not buy or sell ; he knows
nothing of profit or loss. The very elemTnts of
trading and speculation are wanting, yet his enemies
convert the mere receipt of revenue, existing at the
time he accepted the government of Sarawak, into a
trading speculation. They hint that as Governor of
Labuan he uses her Majesty's credentials for the pur-
posps of self-aggrandisement and personal ambition.
Nothing can be snore false. The whole history of his
expedition proves the contrary. The life he led —the
hopes that animated him, recorded as they are in his
diary day by day—the objects he had in view—were
far above the acquisition of money or the gratification
of a self-seeking ambition. It is a singular feature of
the crusade against Sir James Brooke that the tw•o
features in his character which stand out in boldest re-

lief—his sincere humanity and his indifference to money
—are the very points on which his defamers have
attacked him. It is only proper to add, in conclunion,
that when the B ritish Government appointed. Sir James
Brooke Governor of Labuan, it was with the distinct
unders'anding that his independence as Raja of
Sarawak was not to be affected or shaken in the
slightest degree. But now the pretext for embroiling
him with the Home authorities consists in his having
derived from Sarawak a certain amount of revenue
absolutely necessary for carrying on the government
of that district. There will not in all probability be
any renewal of these disgraceful attacks upon the
character and motives of a man who has rendered the
name of Englishmen illustrious upon the other side
of the globe. How easy a thing it is to traduce the
fair fame of the absent or the dead ! In ordinary
cases how hard the task of washing away injuries
which the meanest hand may inflict! Happily fur
Sir James Brooke the accusations brought against
him have been susceptible of a simple and direct an-
swer. If he has been exposed to very virulent at-
tacks—if his action 3 have been distorted—his motives
maligned, he has simply shared the ordinary fate of all
public men in a free country. If a charge against a pub-
lic man be once originated by a private enemy, and it
suit the purpose of a political party to add vigour to the
cry, the calumny of yesterday becomes the dogma of
to-morrow. No matter how pure a man's life, how
lofty his motives, he is in such a case for a while the
popinjay of every gobemouche in the three kingdoms.
What is the remedy against all this ? We are well
aware that it is easy enough to bear the misfortunes
of other men with becoming resignation, and to re-
commend indifference and contempt as the appropriate
cure. We doubt the entire efficacy of this prescrip-
tion. Rather let a man who has once stepped for-
ward upon the public arena fix his eye steadily upon
the good he hopes to effect. If he perceives that the
projects he had formed for the relief of suffering hu-
manity are in course of realization, he may acquiesce
very contentedly in a certain amount of misrepresen-
tation, and even of calumny. Stars, and titles, and
wealth, and even rapturous applause at the London
Tavern, are well enough, but there is some-
thing much better—the consciousness of doing
good and of ameliorating the condition of
generations yet to be born. If a man might be per-
mitted to work out his views for the relief of hie fel-
low creatures without hindrance or contradiction, he
would be deprived of many incentives to noble action.
A spice of slander, bitter as it may taste in the mouth,
is no bad occasional ingredient in a man's cup. It
will not be the least amongst what Lord Bacon
would style the " felicities" of Sir James Brooke, if
he bo destined from time to time to meet with a few
more such opponents as the members of the Eternal
Peace Society and their Parliamentary accomplices.
The insecure point of Sir James Brooke's eastern ad-
venture is that its success seems as yet to rest on no
more secure basis than his single life. What will happen
in those distant seas when the controlling spirit is
withdrawn and the European trader and the half-
sav age native are brought face to face ? Sir James
Brooke has succeeded in clearing the Eastern seas
of piracy—that is a positive good; and that achieve-
ment may no doubt be perpetuated by the most ordi-
nary hands. This done, civilization and barbarism
are brought into contact. Is the Eastern Archipe-
lago to furnish us with the first example of the gra-
dual diffusion of civilization amongst a barbarous
people—without subjection—without extermination ?
We will not indulge in gloomy forebodings, nor an-
ticipate the moment when the exertions of a noble
life may prove to have failed in attaining their full
object. Miy all turn out as Sir James Brooke him-
self would fain have it! Meanwhile, absent though
he be, his reputation and pod name are a sacred de-
posit in the hands of his country. The continued
favour of his Sovereign, the distinct approval of both
Houses of Parliament, the hearty admiration of the
vast majority of his countrymen—above all, the con-
,-ioueess of the good he has effected, may surely be
taken as sufficient compensation for a
passing gust of
calumny, which has only brought. out the disinterest.
edness of his character in bolder relief.

NAVAJANTELLIGENCE.
WA.R.-BfiEAMEßS.—Before the practice at the
iron and wood butt on Thursday last there was an order
down at Portsmouth for another butt to be made for
further shot-practice on a plan suggested by Mr. Pre-
tious, the only difference from it to the last butt being
(we understand) that a thick felt substance was to be
placed between the iron and wood ; it being supposed
the felt would so soften the jar on concussion as would
prevent the shot from breaking to pieces. After the
conclusive practice that took place on Thursday last
it seems a query whether this new butt will now be made.
The principal and, we may say, the most novel dis-
covery that has been developed by the recent shot-prac-
tice at the iron butts is the tendency that every shot has
to break to pieces. The shot, whether solid or hollow,
enters the iron plates, and makes a tolerably round
hole, is smashed to pieces, and on escaping from the side
the fragments fly and are scattered about on the inside
the buts in all directions. Wo saw in the last practice

the pieces of a solid 32-pound shot in fragments of from
an ounce to five ouncrs weigh►, which were scattered
about in all directions after passing through the butt.
We should be glad to see some further experiments
made with the iron butts, and which might be done
without much expense, as the old butt: would again an-
swer the purpose. As the contact of the butt with the
iron seems to be the occasion of the shot smashing to
pieces, why not try an outside casing r f wood over the
iron side, case the old butt over with fir planking from
four to ten inch, or even a foot in thickness, and try
whether it would not prevent the butts breaking? The
Sirnooln is a most bountiful frigate; certainly the most
complete vessel of war that we have ever seen manufac-

turea from iron. Now if an outside wood planking
should be found, on practice, to prevent the iron balls
from breaking to picce3, there would be no difficulty in
placirg a wood-planking, or sheathing, of the required
thickness over the iron sides of the Simoom, which
would only be requirei outside her fighting-decks--
namely, from her weather-deck gunwales to the main-
deck waterways. It might, however, be carried down to
her waterline and bevelled off to nothing below. This

sheathing would not detract from her sailing or steam-
ing qualities, though it might disfigure her somewhat;
but the protection of her crew from slaughter is
the principal object, and if this sheathing would pre-
vent the shot from breaking the object would be ob-

tained.
As we have before observed, the shot on entering the
iron plates of the side, make a tolerably round hole, the
siz.3 of a ball, without much injuring the plane of the
plate side. These holes, in an iron vessel, might be
easily stopped up in the same way that man-holes in
boilers are stopped ; the covering plate, being in two
pieces, might be thrust out through the shot hole, and
screwed back as man-holes are. The old iron butts
would do to practice at, and might be covered ever
with plank of different thicknesses, to test what thick-
ness would prevent a ball on striking from being broken
to pit ces.--fierald.

worked well. She was obliged to stop them when at
Spithead, on account of the bearings becoming heated;
this will be remedied before she g ‘es to sea. The
draught of water on Friday was 14 feet 5 inches for-
ward and 15 feet 5 inches aft.

The Cuckoo steam-vessel, Commander Le Febvre,

The ni:ighbourhood of this port was visited with is
dense fog yesterday, when one of the Irish steamers
c..ught the sands off White Sand Bay, but sheered off
witheut damage. A smack ran aihere at Yealm,
and a revenue cruiser is reported to have taken the
ground to the eastward. There was very little wind at
the time.

On Thursday evening, between nine and ten o'clock,
the yawl Alarm, of 193 tans, belonging to Mr. Joseph
Weld, of the Royal Yacht Squadron and Royal Western
Yacht Club, when attempting to make fast to one of the
Government transporting buoys in Barn Pool,
missed it, and there being a strong ebb tide, very little
wind, and no anchor ready, she drifted ashore under
Mount E igcumbe, to the south of the landing-place, with
her bow pointing to the northward. She Jell towards
the beach, and as the tide rose she filled. On Friday morn-
' in.., Mr. Henderson, master-attendant of the dockyard;
Mr.' Brown, master of her Majesty's ship Agincourt,
with a gang of seamen and marines, and the Fearless
steamer, Mr. Veitch proceeded to Barn Pool, and plac-
ing a lighttr on each side the yacht, with hemp cables
underneath, they pumped her out, and with the help of
casks under her bilg.. raised her with the tide, and at
5 Pm. towed her to Frank's Quarry, the private build-
ing yard of Mr. Banks, K ho bad assisted in her recovery.
Port-Admiral Sir W. Hall Gage, in the Sylph yacht,
inspected the operation in the afternoon. The keel of
the Alarm was twisted at low water, and she leaks from
damage to her garboard streak and bilge. She is one
of the fine old racing yachts, and is last from Ports-
mouth. Mr. Weld, his son, and two brothers were on
board at the time of the accident.

SPANISH BONDHOLDERS.
The Committee of Spanish bondholders have received
a communication from their agent at Madrid, and cer-
tainly it is not very encouragin Madrid, I is
as
uly follows:
J 5, 1850.

" Monsieur le President,—l have the honour to inform
you that I have had this day, jointly with the Dutch
delegates (who hold likewise powers from the French,
Belgian, and Prussian Committees), the first conference
with the Directive Junta, presided over by Monsieur
Bertram de Lis.

" In this conference we explained the sacred rights of
the foreign creditor, and the desire with which the com-
mittees are animated to come to a reciprocally acceptable
and equitable settlement.
"I read extracts from the letters which the committee
has addressed to me under date of the 10th of May and
18th of June last, plainly asserting that there is no
question of any proposition, but solely an indication on
the part of the committee to obtain from the Govern-
ment a proposition upon the basis indicated in your
letter of the 10th of May, in order to submit it to the
discussion and approbation of the foreign bondholders.
The Dutch delegates have joined us to carry out
entirely this pier, and expressed their perfect satisfac-
tion of it to the Directive Junta. The Junta replied
that they would take the whole into consideration, in
order to make their report to the Government, and to
call us to another conference as soon as they should be
lin a situation to make a reply. The Datch delegates
have seen this day for the same object his Excellency
the Duke de Valencia and the Minister of Finance, who
respectively promised to do all they possibly can. The
Duke de Valencia indicated that the Treasury can never
go further than to apply 200,000,000 reels annually to
the whole of the debt, home and foreign, and as 100
milli cis if i eils are already required for the payment of
the 3 per cent. interior and exterior debt, there remains
the other 100 millions of reals applicable to the defini-
tive arrangement (f the old debt, interior and exterior.
