INQUESTS.

Au inquest was held to-day at the Govern- mont Civil Hospital before the Coroner (C. V. Creagh, Esq.,) on the body of a youth named Edward Connell, who was an ordinary scaman on board the British barque Frederick, and who was killed by falling from aloft. The following gentlemen com- prised the jury-Messrs. J. M..Quedes, Jr., T. H. Vale, and F. Specht. Dr Von der Horok certified to the cause of death, which ho said was due to a severe contusion on the head, neck and right arm. The skin on the occiput was laid open to the boue and blood was issuing from the ears, nose, and mouth. There was a covers dislocation of several vertebres of the spinal column. The right arm нав dislocated in four places. The legs were perfectly rigid, and the skin was of a bluish- colour.

Thomas Evans, the chief officer of the Frederick, said the deceased was shipped last Thursday. On Friday morning about 11 o'clock he was sent aloft with a tackle which he wae to make fast round the royal- mast head. When he had got up as far as the orcas-troes, one of the men who was on the top-gallant yard called out that the line was foul, and came down from the yard to help to clear it. The deceased was in the aat of handing the bloeic and line to the man when he lost his balanes and fell into a ballast lighter which was lying, alongside the ship. Witness went to deceased, who was lying insensible, with his right shoulder under his back. He was at once removed to the Police Hulk, and from thence to the Hospital.

By Inspector Grimes: The deceased was seventeen years of age. It was part of his duty, to go aleft, and do such work as he was engaged in at the time of the accident."

Charles Bishop, an able seaman or board the sauce vessel, corroborated themate's state- ment. In answer to inspector Grimes, wit- ness said that deceased was well liked by everybody at the Sailors' Home, and also en

board the ship.

A led said he knew the deceased very well. The only relation be bad living was Street, Liverpool. & sister who resided at No. 15, Mark The July returned a verdict of accidental deuth.

Inquests pero also held on the bodies of two prisoners named Chan Akwai and Yung Akum, who died in the Daol. Captain Domputer having produced the Gaol register showing their prison history, and Dr Ayres having certified as to the cause of death, the Jury returned a verdict: of death from
