CHARGE OF SEDITION.

At Galway sessions, on Friday, Joseph Keys, a man
of colour, who bad been forcibly ejected from a temper-
ance room, for having delivered a seditious speech to the
members, was brought up in custody.
Mr. John Tyrrell, repeal warden, stated that he was,
on the evening of Tuesday the 6th instant, at the Parent
Temperance Itoom, end that while the band was prac-
tising the prisoner entered, and, calling for silence, ob-
served that he was one of those who owed their emanci-
pation to Mr. O'Connell, who was then in prison ; that
the repeal would be had, but not until their repeal but-
tons were fling aside, and the sword and pitchfork taken
up first. Witness, on hearing this language, called upon
the persons present to put out the prisoner, which was
done at once.
Other witnesses corroborated this statement.

The prisoner then stated that he was a sailor, and
lived last at Newtown Forbes, three miles from Longford
where he was repairing a boatohat he came to Galway
on the sth instant, in expectation he might get employ-
ment in a ship. He recollected he had been at the Tem-
perance Rooms, but not what he had said ; and it was
evident that unless he were tipsy he would not have
gone among strangers, or done what was imputed to him.
Mr. G RIFFITH, one of the magistrates, said, it was the
opinion of himself and Mr. Icirnan, that the prisoner
ought not to be committed forTtrial on the charge, but
bound in his own recognizaneWof 201. to keep the peace
for seven years.
The prisoner then entered into his own recognizames,
and was liberated.

AQUATICS.
THE WESTMINSTER AQUATIC CLUB.

The gentlemen of this highly-respectable club rowed
their scratch match on Tuesday, which was well contested,
and numerously attended by the friends of the several
parties engaged in the race and others connected with
aquatic sports. The distance was from Vauxhall to
Putney, the competitors thus escaping much of the incon-
venience they might otherwise have sustained from the
steamers and craft moored in Lambeth-reach. All
being in readiness they got away at about half-past six.
Messrs. Hudson and Scott (Pink) 1

Messrs. Plunket and Johnson
(Red) 2

Messrs. Darby and Andrews (Light Blue) 3
Messrs. Duplan and Young (Green) 0
The start was well effected, and the whole party were
oar and oar for a few strokes ; Light Blue then showed
in advance, Pink being second, and the other two abreast
of each other. Shortly after the start, Green in the heat
of the race was fouled by a boat which was in their
course, and in consequence of this she took so much
water in at her stern that her occupants were obliged to
leave her, having thus lost all chance in the match. Off
the gas. works Pink went up to Light Blue, and after a
couple of minutes' sharp rowing went by them and re-
taining the lead won by about fifty yards. Light Blue
gave place to Red in the lower part of Chelsea-reach.
THE NAUTILUS BOAT RACE.

A very excellent race came off on Tuesday amongst the
members of the Nautilus Club, Bankside. The gentle-
men who contended in this, as in the above, were drawn
by lottery, and the award of victory was two silver cups.
It was started about half an hour after the Westminster
Aquatics, on the same course, and was not unequal in
interest to the one which had preceded it.
Messrs. Smith and F. Chantler.., (White) 1
Messrs. T. Plempton and E. Plempton (Blue) 2
Messrs. E. Chantler and A Corbold (Red) 3
Messrs. Carmichael and Dawson (Green) 0
The first mile and a half was contested with great
spirit, and exhibited not only much skill, but considerable
game and power. They all got away together, but im-
mediately afterwards Blue took the lead, and held it right
up the reach, pressed throughout the distance by White,
both setting to their work and rowing with much spirit.
On nearing Battersea-bridge White drew ahead of their
opponents, and kept the lead right to the winning post,
first passing through Putney-bridge by half a minute.
The wind set heavily against the tide, and the whole of
the party shipped a great deal of water in their way up,
Green, indeed, so much, that they might have been con-
sidered out of the race ere their arrival at Wandsworth,
where they were almost swamped.
SCULLERS' RACE AT PUTNEY. _ _

- - -
Six young watermen, two or three of whom could not
have exceeded 17 years of age, rowed on Tuesday for a
purse of sovereigns, subscribed by the residents at Put-
ney, Roehampton, and its vicinity. It is unnecessary to
say that it created but very little interest, and that only
amongst the parties themselves or those nearly related.
It was with six competitors, in three heats, and was won
by Charles Green (stripes.)

Viscount Cranbourne, eldest son of the Marquis oi
Salisbury, accompanied by his doctor and courier, left
the Tower yesterday morning by the mail steam-ship
Countess of Lonsdale, for llamburgh. This young no-
bleman is one of our greatest travellers, having visited
all the chief places throughout the globe, and is now en
route to China, traversing the more remote parts of Rus-
sia on his way, and returning by the overland journey to
England.
TIIE PUBLIC PARIS AT MANCIIESTER.—The Liver-
pool Times says :—" The subscription at Manchester for
the purpose of forming parks and public walks for the
use of the labouring classes, now amounts to upwards of
9,2004, and it is expected that three or four times that
sum will be raised. This is the best, because the most
practical and conclusive, answer that could be given to
the charges of selfishness and indifference to the interests
of the poor directed against the manufacturers of Man-
chester, by monopolist orators and journalists. Should
the present noble undertaking be completed in the style
in which it is expected to be, and that within a year of
the revival of the cotton trade from its recent deep de-
pression, it will remain for ages a monument of the gene-
, rosity and humanity of the manufacturers of Manches-
ter, and an example worthy of the imitation of all other
classes."

BLAIRGOWRIE.—WANTON AlisonEr.—About ten
days ago a party of young men from Dundee, while
visiting the beautiful grounds and walks of Craighall
Rattray, destroyed several choice flowers, and on being
remonstrated with, they gave the gardener, Mr. M'Laren
(a very civil and obliging man), the most gross abuse.
Not content, they then proceeded through the walks, and
broke several young trees. The result now is, that the
proprietor. Mr. C. Rattray, has prohibited access to all
persons not having his written permission. Last week,
about sixty ladies and gentlemen presented themselves
at the gate, but not having any authority, they were de-
nied admission to the grounds.—Scotch Paper.
FOREIGN FRUIT.—The Sphinx steamer, which ar-
rived in the river from Havre on Monday night, had
nearly 700 packages of plums on board, about twenty
of the baskets containing common plums, the remainder
consisting entirely of greengages, quite ripe and in good
condition, which were landed at the St. Katharine
Steam-wharf, immediately, under the new regulations
affecting the importation of fruit from the Continent,
and cleared for the London markets, in a perfectly
sound state. _ _

STATE or TRADE AT MANcursTra.—There was
rather less buoyancy in the market yesterday ; and
prices of some descriptions of goods were a shade lower
than last week. In reeled yarn, there was no change of
price; but the demand was not quite so active as during
the two or three preceding weeks..
ROCHDALE LANNEL MARKET, Aua. 19.—This
being the day of the wakes, fewer buyers have attended,
and the business transacted has been more limited than
last week. The Wool Market continues steady and prices
, &in.—Manchester Guardian.
