The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the Society, and other means, since its formation, is upwards of 12,200; for which services 82 Gold Medals, 704 Silver Medals, and £15,250 in cash have been granted as rewards. The Institu tion has also expended .E 57,200 on Life-boat Establishments. The public cannot but sympathise with the vigorous efforts now being made by the Society to save the lives of Ship wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at the present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions lite Society has made within the past few years, it has now One Hundred and Twenty-one Life-boats under its man agement, for the maintenance of which, in a state of thorough efficiency, a large permanent annual income is absolutely needed, if its humane mission is to be perpetuated.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers From this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcca and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within the reach, of every one interested hi the matter." — Dublin Medical Press.

AN IMP ORT A N , T DISCUSSION.—The "Times," the "Lancet," and other leading journals have been lately canvassing the social considerations in volved in " the amount of death and disease caused by vice." Some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the inquiry ; but it would greatly add to their value if they in cluded the facts respecting the origin, the ravages, and the prevention of that SPECIAL VICE, which wars more than any other against the welfare of society—destroying the happi ness and disappointing the objects of matrimony, ur der mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering and shortening the lives of its victims, and spreading desola tion through families. The essential particulars relating to this great social evil (the besetting snare of inexperienced youth and the curse of maturity), together with ample instructions for removing its effects, and recovering health, vigour, and all the ennobling Privileges o f our being, are contained in Dr. LA ' MERT ' S R ni ELP-PRESE ftVATION," a Treatise on Nervous and puis A Physical Debility, of which the 90th Edition has just been f; gent Mann and Co., 39, C orn hill, London, price is., either personally, Post free for 13, or i n a sealed envelope for 20 stamps' Dr. LA , m EnT &c., having for 20 years devoted himself entirely to this branch of practi ce, may b e consu lt e d d a ily, No. 373: ouErbiy3l.Oitp..g correspondenc e , at London.athisresidenCe, POST-OFFICE 6d TuRK I s H 2s. till 5, andllo, St. m artin's -le-Grand.

Letters of a similar character were received by the wives of these gentlemen, whose alarm and anxiety of mind can be easily conjectured. They matter was at once made known to the authorities, and an investigation ias been going on during the r day in the magistrates' private room at the police court. It was thought advisable that the inquiry 'should be strictly private for the present. The whole cause of displeasure known to be given by the gentlemen is, that Mr. Leahy i'ecently sold, and Mr. Galgey purchased, the propez•ty called Leeheens, within six miles of this city.

The cause of the hostility of the Ribbon confede racy to Mr. Bianconi is, that on coming into pos session of some property he advanced the rent on the incoming tenants. The fellows, after fulfilling their nefarious miesion, turned away, and took their departure with the utmost sang froid. We have not heard whether Mr. Bianconi is able to identify these daring emissaries of the landed pro perty confiscation conclave or not. As a further evidence of the state of the country,' we may mention that we have heard that Richard. Phillip s , Esq., of Gaile, whose property adjoins Mr. B ianceas, has had also a " friendly warning" given him not to put into effect notices served by him of his intention to raise the rent to the standard fixed by:Mr. Bianconi. A report has reached t his town—whethe Mr r correct or not we are unable to eay—that wh ile . Carden, of Barnane, was dillA g with a neighbouring information gentleman a couple of evemOgs.ragef r. Carden would was conveyed to the latter that JY. I be shot on his r e t ur n home. The vOrthY host ac quainted Mr. Carden with the startling iptelligence and intimated his desire that he would aland°ll the idea of going home that n ight. This suggestion Mr. Carden declined to adept, and then the get. man, who is also a magistrate, had a party of tho neighbouring police to escort Mr. Carden to his residence. If this report be correct it affords another terrible illustration of the state to which Tipperary is again sinking. We trust for the sake of the county the rumour has no foundation in fact. The landsteward at Noan, near Cashel, in the' employment of Stanley Black, Esq., recently re ceived, through the post-office, a threatening letter, bearing the Thurles post-mark, and addressed to himself. The letter threatened him with the fate of Ellis, if certain parties, against whom decrees for possession were obtained, would be turned out. The Cork. Examiner says :—lnformation hag reached us, of the correctness of which we can enter tain no doubt, that a threatening letter has been sent to a gentleman connected withthe management of land not a very great distance from the city of Cork,find in what is considered one of the most prosperous agricultural districts. The gentleman who has received it is Mr. John Newman Beamisli, agent for the property of Capt. Smith Barry, in the neighbourhood of Midleton. We are not inclined to look upon the missive as other than a brutum fulmen. But it is with the deepest Berme' we learn that the dreadful spirit of agraian outrage hals made even so small a step into our peaceful county. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 24, 1802.

Hitherto during the quarter ofaCentury in which the spirit of emulation and improvement in yacht building and yacht-sailing has been fostered by this important club giving valuable prizes for competi tion. its regattas have passed off year by year un marked by any mischance; but yesterday an acci dent occurred which might have placed the lives of upwards of three hundred persons on board the club steamer the Prince of Wales in imminent peril, and as it was created considerable alarm, although pro videntially unattended with serious consequences ; and here, before proceeding to further details, it is but just to Lord Alfred Paget, the noble commodore of the club, to state that the disaster was in no way attributable to any mismanagement on his part, but, on the contra r y , ha d his directions been com plied all p ro b a bilit y h ave many that have pre cededlt was the opening race of the first class yachts p a s se passed to i t ffo h n , a sts agreeably r d l eaaerya occasions cy o a u sa l is d o nt 0. ofthe list of en. tries : club, and the following was Yachts. Tons. O wners . Christabel 4B .. Mr. H. H. Kennard Marina .50 ~ J. C. Morice. Ph o sphorus Glance ........ this Audas •• • • The prizes were a very handsome salver and tea and coffee service, of a new and elegant design, chased in rosettes, and gilt, manufactured for the Exhibition by Hancock, value £lOO, and a second prize, value £4O, for the second boat. Course, from Erith to the Nore Light and back, with a time al lowance of half-a-minute per ton. There was consi derable interest excited by the race, as is usual with those in this club, and it was increased by the repu tation of a new boat, the Phosphorus, as a fast sailer, where the renown earned by the others made each of them the favourite. The Prince of Wales steamer had been engaged by the club for the conveyance of members and their friends, and left London-bridge a little after ten, with Lord Alfred Paget, the commodore, the rest of the officers, and a party to the number we have above stated. The vessel proceeded to Erith, where the yachts were found at their stations, and were inspected by the commodore. At 11h. 50m. a gun was fired by direction of the noble commo dore for the start, and the Christabel, which cer tainly had a very good position, went away with an extraordinary lead, followed by the Phosporus, Marina, Glance, and Audax. For two or three minutes only they were in sight, there being a very stiff and favourable breeze from the southward of west. Instead of being ready to follow, the steamer's anchor and a few fathoms of chain had to be got up, and this ceremony took so long that the yachts were not overtaken until they reached Gravesend, where the Christabel was first, Marina second, Audax third, Glance fourth, and Phospho rus last, the latter rigging a bowsprit, she having unfortunately just earried her's away. There was at that time a gap of 50 or 60 yards between the Christabel and Marina, which soon became shor tened, and they were abreast. Some very smart sailing followed, and resulted in the Marina passing her opponent to leeward. Off the Chapman she had a lead of 200 yards, and retained it to the Nore Light, where the accident occurred to which we have alluded. At 2h. 3m. the Marina jibbed at the Light as usual from the southward to the north ward, at which time the Prince of Wales steamer was dead in her course, at about 100 yards above the Light. Lord Alfred Paget, who was on the paddle-box, had directed the captain of the steamer to take her as usual below the Nore Light, when he replied, as is supposed with a view of giv ing the spectators a better view of the turning, that he would take her in a line with it, and was pro ceeding to do so when tho yacht came down upon him. The owner of the Marina luffed as much as he could, and the crew shouted to the steamer. Lord Alfred immediately, from his nautical experience, saw the imminent danger in which all were placed, and called out to the captain of the steamer to turn her astern, and endeavour was made to get her out of the way, but it was too late, and the bowsprit of the Marina struck the steamer on the port bow with such force as to open one of her iron plates, stave the timber, and admit a quantity of water. Tow and blankets were immediately resorted to to atop the leakage ; and although the officers of the club did all that gentlemanly feeling could suggest to allay the consternation, it was general, although the exact amount of the mischief was not commu nicated to the ladies on board. By the accident the woodwork at the head of the steamer and the decorations were flattened and broken, while the yacht was much damaged. Her bowsprit was forced right in, carrying away the bit s , w i n dl ass , an d k€vel of the mast. Many were thrown down on board the boats, but fortunately none were hurt. As the Marina was unable to proceed any further, she was taken in tow by the steamer to Gravesend, where she was left for repairs. Owing to the col lision and its consequences no guns were fired, and no time taken at the rounding, but at the moment of the Marina's jibbing she was above a minute and a quarter ahead of the Christabel, the Audax being next, then the Phosphorus. It was some time be fore the boats were again overtaken, and then the Christabel was leading, the Audax being second, and the Phosphorus third. In this way they worked through the Hope and St. Clement's, and arrived at Erith in the following times : h. m. a. Christabel Audax ........ 6 47 45 Glance 5 52 0 Phosphorus .. By this the Christabel won the first prize, Glanco second by two minutes and a half. A committee of the best yachtsmen on board, headed by Lord Alfred Paget, was promptly held, to determine what colas° should be pursued re specting the Marina, when it was resolved to recom mend to the club, besides the prizes given to the two first boats, that a further prize, value £lO be presented to the owner of the Marina, who ex pressed his lively sense of the liberal suggestion. Lord Alfred Paget presented the prizes to the owners of the Christabel and Glance in the usual way. Harmony, Wild Will, Tutor, and Rossmoro also ran. Betting-2 to 1 agst Tutor, 4to 1 agst the Matin Bell colt, 5 to 1 each agst Harmony and the Maid of the Tees colt. The Homily colt delayed the start for some minutes, as ho would not go up to his horses. When the lot got away, Tutor, the Maid of Tees colt, and Wild Will made play for the first quarter of a mile, where Wild Will re tired beaten, and the favourite, with the Maid of Tees and Matin Bell colts held the lead to the distance, where Tutor was beaten, and the Homily colt took third place. The two leaders then came on together, side by side, past the Stand to within a couple of strides of the chair, where the Matin Bell coat shot to the front, and won cleverly by half a length ; a length between the second and third. The others beaten off. The winner was bought in for 25 guineas. _ _ The Queen's Plate of 100 guineas, for 3-yr-olds and up wards ; Queen's Plate weights. Three miles. Mr. T.

At the bottom turn Dusk had all his opponents in difficul ties, and coming sailing along he won with the most ridi culous ease by 15 lengths ; a good race in with the next three for second place was won by Schism from Fighting Cock by a hoad ; the same separating the latter from Port land ; Aurelian was fifth, Highflyer sixth. Joskin,beaten off a long way, did not pass the post.

Tho Iron-plate Committee, in prosecution of their experiments to ascertain the most efficient mode of applying armour-plates to ships, yesterday attended at Shoeburyness to try a target proposed by Mr. Scott Russell. In this target the armour-plates are attached by a now method, which obviates the use of bolts. The thickness of the plates is 43 in., but they are supported behind by other plates and iron work, which alone are equal to a stratum almost as thick as - the armour, so that the total thickness of iron is little short of 9 inches. No wood is used in this target, but from the great thickness of iron, its weight considerably exceeds that of the Warrior target. It is in fact the heaviest target that has yet been tried. After sustaining the usual battering from 110-pounders and 68-pounders, three shots were fired against it from the 300-pounder, charged from 501 b. of powder. These three shots were earth airpotea againat an uninjured part of the tar get. The first, and second shots were lodged in the target, and the third went completely through. The mode of attaching the plates seemed very effective, but the resisting power of the target, considering its greater weight, was deemed inferior to that of Warrior. A crack had been previously discovered in one of the external coils of the 300-pounder, but was not thought sufficiently serious to prevent the gun being used. The crack from its rusted state does not appear to be recent, and is supposed to have originated at proof, which was very severe. It will be necessary to remove the fractured coil and replace it with a new one before the gun can be considered perfectly safe. The screw steamship Donegal, 99, Capt. Sherard Osborn, C. 8., which left Vera Cruz on the Bth of March, and Bermuda on the 6th inst., arrived in Plymouth Sound yesterday morning, as already re ported in The Sun. She conveyed from Vera Cruz to Bermuda 110 Marines, of whom 64, sick of fever and dysentery, were sent to Ports Island, in medi cal charge of Dr. Elliott and Dr. Anderson. The Donegal brings from Bermuda 74 Royal Marines, belonging to the Plymouth and Eastern Divisions, under command of Col. Lambriek and Lieutenants Shanks and Barham, and in medical charge of Dr. Elliott; also 52 naval and military invalids, in charge of Dr. Thompson ; Dr. Austen, invalided from the paddlewheel steam sloop Medea, 6 ; Lieu tenants Clarkson and Stewart, 39th Regiment; Commander James A. R. Dunlop, from the screw steam frigate Orlando, 50; and the Rev. Joseph C. Horderne, of the screw steam frigate Diadem, 32. During the expedition to Mexico, 55 Royal Marines, rank and file, died from fever and dysen tery, and one officer, Lieut. Price. These fatalities, and the extent of sickness in the entire force, are unusually large. Dr. Elliott and Dr. Anderson are reported to have attended to their duties most assiduously. The steam corvette Challenger, 2?, 3apt. J. Kennedy, C. 8., brought to Bermuda 163 Royal Marines left at Vera Cruz by the Donegal. They are to be transferred to the screw steamship Edgar, 89, flag of Rear-Admiral Sidney C. Dacres, C. 8., ordered home. The Nile, Orlando, Mersey, Melpomene, Agamemnon, Hero, Aboukir, Chal lenger, Medea, Petrel, Racer, Landrail, and Nimble left Bermuda on the 6th of May for Hali fax. The Donegal experienced fine south-west winds on her passage to Plymouth. Her Majesty's frigate Curagoa arrived yesterday at Spithead from Rio Janeiro. In coming up through the West Channel to Spithead she grounded on a shoal, but got off again without damage. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Fredrick R. Child, master, to the Saturn, for the Lightning; Thomas Bowen, master, to the Wellesley ; George S. Alldricks, master, to the Cumberland, for the Severn ; John Rogers, master, to the Russell, for the Coastguard ; James B. Haye, midshipman, to the Icarus ; Victor E. J. B. Von Donop, midshipman, to the Bacchante; George V. M‘Donogh, surgeon, to the Trincomalee; Angus Robertson, assist.-surgeon, to Hasler Hospi tal; Edward A. Dyer, clerk, to the Nile; Chas. A. Dewar,promoted to first-class assist.-engineer in the Princess Charlotte; and James A. Dicks, confirmed as second-class assist.-engineer in the Cumberland. Two" good-service" pensions are placed at the disposal of the First Lord of the Admiralty by the promotion of Capt. Geo. Goldsmith, C. 8., and Capt. Charles Frederick to the rank of Rear-Admiral, THE AlilllY. The I and R batteries of field artillery, under the command of Col. Anderson, C. 8., stationed at Hil sea, near Portsmouth, and numbers 6,7, 8, and 10 batteries of garrison artillery, under the command of Col. London, the whole being under the com mand of Col. Warde, C. 8., commanding the artil lery in the south-western district, were yesterday officially inspected at Portsmouth by Major-Gen. Lord W. Paulet, C. 8., commanding the south-west district. The inspection was short owing, to a strong gale from the S.W. accompanied with rain, which prevailed throughout the greater part of the pro ceedings. The appearance of the horses, men, and guns, as the batteries marched past, and also dur ing the movements which followed, elicited general admiration. The marching past of the batteries of the 6th brigade was also worthy of all commenda tion. At the close of the proceedings Lord Paulet, addressing the troops, highly complimented Col. Anderson upon the efficiency of the batteries under his command, and said that from what he had seen of them that day he felt convinced, notwithstanding the short time they had been formed, that they need fear none with whom they might come into contact when in camp at Aldershot, to which place they were about to proceed. His lordship also compli mented the garrison artillery upon their marching past and steadiness under arms, but said their con duct in garrison required amendment, which amend ment he was determined to effect if they remained long enough under his command. The I battery, mounted portion, leave their quarters at Hilsea on the 27th inst. They will halt at Petersfield that night, and proceed on to the camp at Aldershot on the 28th. The dismounted men proceed to Aldershot by rail on the 28th. The K battery, mounted por tion, leave Hilsea on the 28th inst., halting at Peters field for the night and proceeding on to Aldershot on the 29th. The dismounted men leave Hasler for Aldershott, by rail, on the 29th. It is said to be the intention of the Commander-in -Chief to concentrate 16 batteries of field artillery, 96 12-pounder Arm strong guns, at Aldershott, to take part in the forth coining military spectacles. The Robert Lowe screw steamer, Capt. Congalton, sailed from Kurracheo on the 28th of February, arrived at the Cape of Good Hupe on the sth o f April, and sailed thence on the 9th of April. Sh e steamed from Kurrachee to 10 S., when the south east trades were met with ; and again from 1 S. to 9 N., between the trades in the Atlantic, for five days. During the whole passage the weather was so fine that not a reef was at any time required to be taken in the topsails. The following officers, mili tary invalids, and passengers have arrived in the s hip—Capt. Schebarras, 98th Regiment, in com mand of detachments on board—Capt. Willis, 33d Regiment ; Lieut.

STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, May 23.—1 a yarns we have had rather more business on Wednesday and Thursday, the sudden movement in the Liverpool market in ducing some few buyers to come forward rather more freely. The operations were to supply orders which had been lying over mostly, and were not considerable, but they gave some encouragement, and spinners have been endeavouring to-day to fol low the rise in cotton at Liverpool by asking higher prices. The attempt, however, has been to some ex tent a failure. Buyers show a want of confidence in the maintenance of present rates, and the higher quotations have checked business. There has been very little business effected to-day, but spinners are firmer, and there is less irregularitythan on Tuesday. The same in cloth as in yarns, manufacturers have been asking 3d to 6d per piece more in consequence of the rise in cotton, but agents and sellers generally have been unable to obtain the advance. During Wednesday and yesterday a little more business was done at the turn in favour of sellers,but the improve ment has disappeared to-day, and there is but little doing. It will have been observed that for some time past merchants have abstained a good deal from buying in cloth, and mostly from a distrust in the current range of prices, and that the nearer affairs between the Transatlantic belligerents have appeared to approach a crisis the greater has been their cau tion. The question now naturally arises, and cannot perhaps yet bo answered even approximately— What should be a tolerable safe basis on which to found transactions ? No one expects that cotton will come down to the average prices ruling a few years ago, though there are people in business ex travagant enough to fix their calculations of the amount of cotton stored in America as high as four millions of bales, and others who go to quite as opposite an extreme. But the present is an excep tional position, and in this, as in everything con nected with the American struggle, there is no thing in our experience to guide us. Most of the public as well as private sources of information as to the probable quantity to come forward are tainted and untrustworthy. In ordinary times the Southern cotton interest, in common with American people generally, were always fertile beyond any other in the world in inventing reports which served to pro mote speculation and run up the prices of their staple ; and rumours of " frosts," " the boll," the " wire worm," " floods," and " droughts," have urged thousands of speculators to loss or ruin at Liverpool, and have been repeated till they are stale. The latest accounts now to hand include advices from Louisville, which some regard as a fine illustration of the "ruling passion, strong in death," for they state that after the fall of New Orleans the cotton plantations all the way from that city to Memphis were ablaze, and on the faith of that report prices at Liverpool went up nearly ld. per pound the other day. Many people here are incredulous, for they say it happens to be a line of country not remarkable for its cotton plantations either as to number or extent, and they are doubt ful of the determination of planters to sacrifice their crops for patriotism when at the same time they are taking such pains to run up the prises in foreign markets, and are so intent on increasing the value of the stock at home. As to the destruction of 10,000 or 11,000 bales at New Orleans, that is a small matter, and may be set beside the ordinary losses by fire and at sea, which never create much sensation. After all Europe has been half idle,and abstaining from using their cotton so long, what would be the destruction of half-a-million or a million bales ? There have been no reliable ac counts of the destruction of cotton to shake the belief here that there will be a very large amount be eu little ms t an doubt eest of ward tfrohecocimueesftoirow:rd,, When n ev w er circumstance sillitcome p „e t m h o a r t e d u i n ffi d c e u r lt th t e o ainnesewterf.avoTuhraerbelecaenir will be long in coming, because it is probable that the rivers will be getting low, so as to render inland navigation impracticable in some instances, whil e large quantities will have to be cleaned and packed, even if there is not delay for wanetroafilwtuhapeyto give coarsee ks tracks sacking in which it is usually made up, Then, as resource, while the broken , regards bridges o other of have av e meansthese been a o f s transport, an no o early much ource traffic on others is too much interfered with by the military necessities of the war, to which commerce and every thing else must naturally give way.

But there is another question, " Will there ever be anything like a full supply of cotton again for our mills from America, now that thousands of negroes have escaped from the plantations, or are receiving their freedom ?" We do not know yet how far the prin ciple of emancipation may be carried, nor how far the Southern States may yet have to work out, under laws of freedom, the problem we have had to solve in our own sugar plantations in the West Indies. Will the negroes in a state of freedom prove sufficiently industrious to grow us large and increasing supplies? may yet be a question to determine. These are questions which may take long to settle ; but, at all events, everything seems to point at present to obstructions in the way of trade, however soon the ports may be opened—to frequent and serious fluctuations in prices—and to much doubt whether (except in case of panic or un due alarm) we shall for many y ears over COs prices down to the average of ordinary years; PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEE. THE EMBANKMENT OF THE THAMES. The committee re-assembled yesterday morning, and evidence in opposition to the bill - was resumed. The Right Hon. W. Cowper in the chair. Mr. Pennethorne was recalled, and ho stated, in answer to Mr. Hope Scott, Q.C., that the line of street he pro posed at Whitehall was fully before the Royal Commis sioners of 1861. His road would take down Fife House, the Exchequer Office, and Gwydyer House, but in a few years a large amount of Crown property would become vacant, As to obtaining the land by the Metropolitan Board of Works from the Crown, that must be a matter of negotiation ; but whether the Crown was prepared to waive its rights, and give up the ground to the Metropoli tan L'oard of Works for this street, he was not prepared to say. If the roadway were carried in front of the Duke of Buccleuch's property, it would seriously interfere with many of the present enjoyments, and he would be entitled to very heavy damages, not by a civil action, but as com pensation under the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act. He believed if the deviation of road he had pointed out were agreed to, that there was not the slightest doubt the Com missioners of Land Revenues would sanction it. '. Mr. Pollard-Urquhart—You say, if this embankment is formed, that the gardens of the Duke of Buccleuch would be less enjoyable than they aro at present, and that he would be entitled to heavy damages. No doubt you know the gardens of the Tuileries in Paris ? Mr. PennethOrne—Yes ; I have seen them. They are public gardens. Mr. P. Urquhart—Well, that being so, do you think that if there was a mud-bank down the middle of them it would be an improvement to them ? (A laugh.) Mr. Pennethorne—l hardly understand the question ; but if you mean that if a mud-bank were passed down the middle of them it would be an improvemen t to then', I pre sume not. Examination continued—lf the Crown lessees " the banks of the river were to be allowed to derive the advan tages from the enclosed land, he had no doubt they would that the public were nee, but that would, benstoedttosromyadede: and that being so, thought it ofmake course, t r h s e e , be twith embankmentthe e at their own understandinge to be excluded from the use of it.

In 1842, there was a Royal Commission, presided over by the Earl of Lincoln, to consider the question of an embankment, and they reported in f avour o f an em b an k men t f rom Hunger ford -market to Blackfriars-bridge. He had seen the present plan, and believed that an embankment in front of the Crown property at Whitehall would be a serious injury to the Crown lessees. The Duke of Buccleuch had just built his new house on Crown property. In Juno last a meeting of the Crown lessees was held, end a plan like that produced by Mr. Pennethorne was submitted to them, which would prevent the embankment passing in front of the property of the Crown lessees. It was the duty of the Crown to protect the interests of its lessees. The public convenience would be better served by making the road proposed by Mr. Pennethorne, and widening Parliament-street and King-street,l than by a roadway from Westminster -bridge on an embankment. lie should be prepared to recommend the Crown to pay the cost of the embankment in front of this property, on condition of the lessees paying an increased rent for the additional ground that would be obtained by it.
