THE BALTIC. _ _ COPEN Ltd GEN, Feb. 24.  The Great Belt is free from ice.  1-13 Y ELECTRIC & INTERNATIONAL TELEGRAPIIS.I  LONDON, Monday Night. A Privy Council was held at Buckingham Palace this after INQUEST ON MR. SADLEIR. The proceedings were continued to-day. A letter, in Sadleir's handwriting, contained a statement to the effect mentioned by the Morning Advertiser, that he could not live to see the agony of those whose ruin he had caused. Several names of persons he had ruined are stated in the letter, but the coroner decided it would be highly injurious for those names to be mentioned in court. Mr. Keating, M.P. for Waterford, also gave evidence, and read letters from Sadleir, confessing the latter's villany. He says, " Stevens and Norris are both innocent, and have no knowledge of the fabrication of deeds and forgeries by me, and by which I have sought to go on in the horrid hope of retrieving." After the examination of Mr. Josiah Wilkinson, with reference to a forged deed given him by Mr. Sadleir, and a statement from Mr. Keating, that up to that time no other forged documents than the one alluded to bad been discovered, and that there had been no forgeries connected with the Swedish Railway Company, The coroner said it would be a question for the jury to con. sider whether Mr. Sadleir did really commit the extensive forgeries and frauds alluded to, or whether they were mere delusions. The question with regard to property was very important; for if Mr. Sadleir destroyed himself in sound mind, all his property, goods, and chattels would be forfeited to the crown. Up to the present time, he, the coroner, saw no signs of insanity ; but if it could be proved that these documents were written under the delusion that he committed villanies which he never committed, that would be positive proof that he committed suicide in an unsound state of mind. It was due to the deceased, his friends, and the public at large, that there should be a further adjournment. The inquiry was therefore adjourned for a fortnight..
