Russell—were formally introduced to, and shoek bands with, their Conservative opponents, Mr. For lotwe and Mr. Lewis, Q.C. The party assembled, which was a pretty numerous one, then proceeded into a lower apartment used es a court-house, and the acting under-sheriff, Mr. G. Jay, who presided , in consequence of the absence, through indispoSi tion, of Mr. Underwood, sheriff for the city. ,and county of Norwich, ordered the doors tube thrown open for the admission of the . general puhlic. A scene of wild t umu lt i mme di ate l y commenced, and. speeches from either side were rendered an utter impossibility. The crowd rushed in and filled every - nook and cranny of the court-house, creating as— much uproar as possible. Three cheers for the Liberal candidates were proposed and given withi A. _ enthusiasm, and the Conservative section of the l' mob retorted with a similar compliment in honour of their favourites. This was continued again and again, and cries of the most varied and discordant kind were set up.

A report of the division on Mr. Berkeley's motion was laid before the committee, who unanimously agreed to the following resolutions 1. On reviewing the division list, and list of pairs on Mr. Berkeley's motion, this committee congra tulate the friends of the ballot on finding no ground for our opponents' assertion that our cause had re ceived " a serious check," inasmuch as the lists show two unimportant instances of desertion from the side of our friends to that of our opponents, which are balanced by an equal number of conversions of opponents into supporters, while the absence of so many of our supporters m a y b e traced to the tactics of the . anti-ballot party in preventino• a debate and forcing a premature division, and, their strong muster shows that they. are aware they have to en counter an active and formidable organisation, ti.'! that they feel the ballot cannot be treated wil" sl 4' difference or neglect. 2. The committee beg leave earnestly to impress on the parliamentary friends of the ballot thd eVil which arises from their absence- fro - nn divisi6bs even when paired,"publiCopinion on the division be ing formed on the numbers actually voting without reference to pairs or to the number of friends ab sent unpaired, and that the absence of (75) mem bers from the late division tends to dispirit the pub lic, by leading them to believe either that there is an actual diminution of the Parliamentary sup porters of the ballot, or that those supporters are not sincere and earnest in their advocacy of the measure. prd Job e Rao' ite for Foreie a the I' ion.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD, " 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 nou-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flvarant 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 811 their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea 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 delayed 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 in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

The CHAIRMAN called upon the Secretary to read the directors' report, which was as follows : " The present meeting is convened for the election of directors and auditors, and for general purposes, in accord ance with the Deed of Settlement and Bye-laws of the. society. The directors have the pleasure to submit the audited accounts for the past year, together with a state• merit of assets duly verified. The books arid general ac counts are also produced for inspection of the members. During the year, 369 life policies were issued for assurances amounting to £126,381, producing £4,131 75. 6d. new pre miums; which: together with £22,516 19s. sd. renewal premiums, and £4,051 16s. 4d. interest on investments, makes the total income of the society for the year en ding Dec. 31, 1859, amount to £30,750 3s. 3d. The claims (including those not yet at maturity) amount to £6,284, in respect of 21 lives. The estimated mortality for the same period was £9,576, or 30 per cent. in excess of the actual mortality. After pay ment of bonuses taken in reduction of premiums, and making provision for outstanding claims, the s um o f i 8,978 13s. is carried to the general fund of realised assets, which now amounts to £99,884 3s. 11d., to . meet a total net liability of £90,308 10s., leaving a balance of £9,575 towards the fund accruing for bonus allocation at the next triennial division of profits. The subjoined report of the actuary gives a brief summary of the various assurance risks in force, together with the present li a bility o f th e soc i ety un d er each head. No deduction from such liability has been made by him in respect of the office, or surplus premiums payable on each risk, and which he estimates at £79,883 12s. It will be re marked, that ho continues to base his calculations upon the supposition that the society's funds will realise perma nently only 3 per cent, per annum, although from past experience a higher rate may confidently be anticipated. The Post-office authorities have encouraged T the extension of life assurance among the officers of the department, by arranging with several assurance companies for the receipt of their premiums by such instalments as may suit the convenience of those employed under them. They like. wise contribute, from a fund in hand, a portion of the pre miums, averaging 20 per cent. These a d vantages are limited to assurances effected with the offices named in the Postmaster-General's list, which, it is gratifying to state, includes the Reliance and East of England. Special tables have been prepared for this service. The directors retiring by rotation are—J. W. Egerton Green, George Whitmore, George Frederick Harris, and John Ledger, Esquires, who, being eligible, offer themselves for re, election. The retiring auditor is Dr. Ably, Regius Professor of Law at Cambridge. As this gentleman is ineligible for re-election, until he shall have been out of office one whole year, Mr. Edward White, a member duly qualified, who has formerly served the office, has been proposed as a candidate, and will be submitted to the meeting accordingly. The directors take this opportu nity of acknowledging the valuable . assistance received from several policy-holders in promoting the business of the so ciety, and they will gladly welcome similar exertions from the general body of members." REPORT OF THE ACTUARY TO THE DIRECTORS. " Gentlemen,—l beg to submit herewith detailed valua tions of the business on the books of the society upon the 31st of December last, the summary of which is as fol lows := GENERAL ASSURANCE. 2,110 policies, assuring £797,014, including bonus additions, net liability .. £72,061 0 0 INDUSTRIAL ASSURANCE. 908 policies, assuring £14,434 net liability 559 12 0 ANNUITIES, IMMEDIATE AND DEFERRED. 91 policies, assuring 14,310 on various contingencies, net liability .. 17,687 13 0 3,139 policies. Total net liability £90,308 10 0 The present estimated value of the margin or surplus pre miums not included in the above valuation, but to be brought to account as realised, and forming, if I may be allowed the expression, a prospective Bonus Fund,' is £79,883 12s. On the present occasion, as at our last tri ennial investigation, I have as sume d 3 p er cen t, as a per manent rate interest for improvement of the society's funds, but the average interest actually realised for several years past having exceeded 4-per cent., some advantage may be looked to on this head for the society and its participa ting members. —I have the honour to be, with sincere re spect, gentlemen, your very obedient servant, "E. OSBORNE SMITH, Actuary. " London, March 5, 1860." The CHAIRMAN, having expressed the regret of the board that serious illness detained Mr. Prinsep from attending the meeting, in moving the adop tion of the report, congratulated the members of the society most sincerely upon the circumstance that the business of the office during the past year had been one of the most successful prosperity. That was a point on which it was unnecessary for him to say more, for, as a mutual society, they were equally interested in its success. The claims during the past year had not, he was happy to inform them, come up to the amount which had been calculated upon, having been only £6,000, whereas, according to their tables, they had a right to expect that they would have reached £B,OOO during the year. Still he would not be dealing fairly with them if he did not also state that the claims, although less than what had been anticipated, were greater than in any pre vious year. Of the lives at present insured in the office, 50 per cent. were under 40 years of age ; 80 per cent. were under 50 years of age, and only 5 per cent. exceeded 60 years of age. That was, he considered, a healthful state of the society; but, of course, as those lives became older, so they (the policy holders) might expect larger claims to come upon them. With respect to the encourage ment given by the Post-office authorities to their employes to induce them to insure their lives, it was gratifying to find that the Reliance and East of England Office was one of those sanctioned by the department, and although the society had not as yet derived any direct benefit from it, he hoped to see the movement prove a successful one, as it would promote and foster provident habits, which, after all, was the main object which the society had in view. He wished, in the name of the board, to acknowledge the great support given to them by the policy holders. Since the amalgamation of the two offices nothing could have gone on more suc cessfully. The joint board met in the greatest har mony every week, and conducted the business to the satisfaction of all parties, aid they would con tinue to do so so long as they were supp o rt e d b y their brother policy holders. As he said before, they were a mutual society, and it was therefore necessary that they should hang together, and, in their'own interest, exert themselves for the benefit of the society. If they each one brought one policy to the office they would at the end of the next triennial period get a bonus as good, if not better, than that which they obtained last year. Dr. ABDY, as one of the auditors, seconded the motion, and in doing so observed that.he had gone through the accounts in a very careful manner, and he was able to state most unreservedly that all that appeared in the report was truthful and what could be relied upon. The CHAIRMAN, in reply to a policyholder, stated that there was a separate account kept of the in dustrial insurances, which was an experiment to induce the working classes to give up the old bene fit societies. The policies, which were issued only upon first-class lives, did not exceed £25 each, aud the premiums were paid monthly. The motion was then agreed to, after which the retiring directors were re-elected. Mr. White was elected an auditor in the room of Dr. Abdy, and the thanks of the society voted to the medical and other officers for the careful manner in which they per , formed their duties. ' Attention having been called to an attack made upon the society in a work entitled " The Danger of Policy-holders," The SECRETARY read an apology from the author and publisher, stating that such attacks were void of foundation. The proceedings then terminated in the usual manner. 3. On reviewing the statements of the Australian press and the numerous communications from Aus tralia received by this committee and other persons, all testifying to the success of the ballot in our Australian colonies, this committee beg leave to express their conviction that the assertions (unsup ported by any facts) of Mr. Chichester Fortescue, M.P., " that the facts of the case are against the success of the ballot, even in Australia, and that at the last general election in Victoria the scenes that disgraced this country were reproduced in Australia, where corruption, intimidation, and bribery were as rife as they ever have been in the old country," are wholly unwarranted; and the committee beg leave to caution their friends against being misled by an attempt to defend a change of vote on the ballot by an unsupported. reference to alleged official autho- rity. 4. The committee pledge themselves to unabated exertions to promote the cause of the ballot, of the success of which they entertain no doubt, and they will render to Mr. M•Evoy, M.P., every support in their power in aid of his resolution for the ballot, in connexion with the Irish Reform Bill, and to any well considered motion for the ballot which may be made in committee in the English or Scotch bills. An address to the people of Ireland, urging them to petition in favour of Mr. M'Evoy's motion, was also agreed to. INSTI2U2'ION OF CIVIL ENGINEERS. At the meeting of the Institution of Civil Engi neers, on Tuesday, March 27—George P. Bideer, Esq., President, in the chair—th e paper read was "On Combined Steam," by the Hon. John Wethered, U.S. It was stated that, at the present day, the great desideratum in marine engines appeared to be to obtain increased power, or economy in the consump tion of fuel, without the cammercial disadvantage of occupying more space, by the enlargement of the boilers and machinery. This object, it was believed, had been attained by the application of ordinary and superheated steam mixed. The mode adopted in carrying out this system was to attach another steam pipe to the boiler, for conveying the steam to be superheated to pipes, or other contriv ances, placed in any convenient form near the fire, or in the uptake, or chimney of the boiler, or in a separate furnace ; the superheated steam being added to the ordinary steam at, or before its en trance into, the cylinder. In its passage through the superheating apparatus, that, portion of the steam was raised, by the waste heat, to a tempe rature of 500 deg. or 600 deg. Fahrenheit. The heat, thus arrested, was conveyed to, and utilised in the cylinder, by its action on the other portion of steam from the boiler, which was more or less saturated, according to circum stances. The combined steam was used in the cylinder at from 300 deg. to 450 deg. Fahrenheit, instead of at the low temperature at which steam was generally employed. The effect of using the two kinds of steam was, that the superheated steam yielded a portion of its excess of temperature to the ordinary steam, converting the vesicular water, which it always contained, into steam, and expand ing it several hundredfold ; whilst, at the same time, the ordinary steam yielded a portion of its excess of moisture, converting the steam gas into a highly rarified elastic vapour—in other words, into pure steam at a high temperature. It was asserted that repeated endeavours had been made in England, France, and America, to employ steam simply dried, or superheated, and as often abandoned. This plan certainly resulted in partial economy; but owing to the high degree of tem perature necessary in this case, the lubricating materials were dried up, and then the packing lap and rubbing parts of the machinery were de stroyed. Moreover, when all the steam was super heated, the temperature of the steam in the cylin der was beyond the control of the engineer. It was this difficulty which had led to the discovery of the system of employing mixed steam, which was entirely under control ; for by merely turning a valve, it could be so regulated as to produce the highest mechanical effect with the most perfect lubrication to the slides and cylinders. Another advantage was, that if any accident should happen to the superheating apparatus, the cylinders could still be supplied with plain steam alone. A series of trials on board the R.M.S.S. Avon had shown that the pressure in the boiler being in all cases the same with Plain steam the result was 1,070 I.H.P. ; with the steam from three boilers superheated and from the fourth plain, it was 1,076 I.H.P. ; while with the steam mixed in the pro portions of 61 superheated and 69 plain, 1,200 I.H.P. was produced. The Lords of the Admiralty were stated to be so well satisfied with the results of experiments continued over 20 voyages, that they had determined to extend the application of the system in the Royal Navy, and 11.M.5.5. Rhadamanthus had been ordered to be fitted with it. Mr. A. C. Hobb s (A s . Inst. C.E.), had applied it to a high pressure boiler and engine, and Mr. Dorman had adapted it to an engine which did not produce the required power. The combined steam was also used in all the steamers of the Collins line. Experiments on board the Gibraltar showed, that super-heated steam, at a pressure on the boiler of ions., produced 222 I.H.P. • ordinary steam, at 141bs. pressure, 307 ; while combined steam, at 15Ibs. pressure, gave 376 I.H.P. When steam was merely superheated or dried, it was converted into steam gas. It consequently partook of the nature of gas, was a bad conductor Of heat, and gave out with difficulty the heat necessary to transform it into mechanical power. On the other hand, mixed steam participated in the quali ties of steam proper and of superheated steam, and being a pure, highly-rarified vapour, which readily partediwith its heat, thus produced greater mecha nical effect. By the application of combined steam, the follow ing advantages, among others, were said to be obtained :-1. An economy of fuel of from 30 to 50 per cent. 2. A diminution of one-third in the feed water. 3. The employment of smaller boilers to produce the same power. 4. Facility of main taining any desired pressure, or of increasing it at will in cases of emergency. 5. 'A steamer would make a voyage one-third further with the same weight of coals, or one-third the space now occu pied by the fuel might be used for freight. 6. Less risk of explosion. 7. Boilers would last one-third longer. 8. A better vacuum was obtained. And 9. One-third less injection water was required. DR. MUSPRATT'S DICTIONARY OF CHEMISTRY.—This great work is brought very nearly to a close. Seven years of intense labour and research have been devoted to it, and, we are sorry to learn, with no remuneration to the author, but a fortune to the publisher. Surely Mr, Mackenzie will make Dr. Muspratt a handsome gift next month, when the last number is issued; if not we feel sure that the thousands of subscribers will do something to testify their acknowledg ments for the benefits it has conferred upon them.

No addresses were attempted by the candidates, and the nominations were made amidst so much noise that tie proceedings were utterly unintelli gible and inaudible to persons standing more than a yard from the speakers. The Under-Sheriff, after several vain attempts to obtain something like silence, contrived to take a show of hands, and amidst loud cheers from the Liberals declared that the result was in favour of Sir William Russell and Mr. Warner. A poll was demanded for Mr. Lewis and Mr. Forlonge, and will be taken this day (Thurs day.) The proceedings then terminated, the hall being cleared as quickly as it had been filled. FEARFUL BOILER EXPLOSION. On Tuesday morning, abut haltpast five, a most fearful boiler explosion occurred at the Hazard Pit of the Blaydon Main Colliery, which is situate about five miles from Newcastle. Blaydon Main is one of the two collieries in the northern coal trade that produces the well-known cannel coal, employed to make gas. The Hazard Pit has only been sunk six or seen years, but the Blaydon Main establish ment has been in operation considerably above a century, the plentiful supply of coal in the district inducing the famous London Alderman, Sir Am briose Crowley, to establish extensive ironworks in the adjacent villages of Winlaton and Swalwell in the early part of last century, and from which esta blishment the Royal Navy had its principal supply ofanchors and ship iron during the great American and French wars. The main engine for pumping the water out of the Hazard Pit, which it does at the rate of 600 gallons a minute, is supplied with three boilers, and the machine for bringing the coal uli and taking the men in and out of the pit has two boilers. The whole of these were at bank, and stood in la row, the main-engine boilers being on the out side. Of course, both engines are worked night and day, and during last ni g ht th e main engine was in charge of Joseph Gray, the machine being in charge of Win. Holmes, both described as steady men. The engines are regulated upon the float and valve principle, and it is stated that six weeks ago the float of the engine that has burst got wrong, and that Holmes was scalded in putting it right. About half-past five both he and Gray had been on the top of the boilers, examining them, and Gray states that they found them right, and well supplied with water. They were coming down from off the boilers, and David Johnson, the fireman under Holmes, was gettinr , up on the boiler- sea t, w h en one of the two boilers driving the machine, that next the machine-house, exploded with aw f u l force. Holmes and Johnson were lifted a considerable dis tance into the air, and then thrown on to the pit heap in a fearfully mangled condition, and dead. Holmes fell on the gangway, and he was precipi tated with such force from off the boiler that in his fall he broke two slabs which were 21 inches thick. Gray was lifted about 10 yards, but, singular to say, he was little the worse. A little driver lad, n ame d WM. Hubbard, wko had come to warm himself at the furnace fire before he went down the pit, was hurled among a mass of ruins and killed, and another driver lad named Laverock had one of his thighs and au arm broken, and was otherwise badly hurt. The token keeper, Matthew Henderson, had been to the furnace of the boiler that exploded about a minute before the occurrence to procure a shovelful of live coal to kindle his fire, but he found that green coals had just been thrown on, and he went to an adjoining furnace, and was about to take a shovel ful of coal, when the boiler he had just left ex ploded. Except a rap on the shins he is nothing the worse. The force of the explosion was terrific. One side of the boiler flew into the machine-house, breaking down the wall, smashing great balks of timber, and destroying everything in its way, and leaving the machine building a perfect wreck. Great stones and parts of connecting pipes and timber were hurled in every direction, and many of the pitmen, who were coming to work, had very narrow escapes from being struck down by them. A great stone was hurled through the roof of a neighbouring farmhouse, and a st•ae of a similar size was pitched through one of the office windows, smashing everything before it. The machine for drawing the men out of thepit was com pletely disabled by the effects of the explosion; and, as there was a considerable number of men employed below at the time, a " crab" was rigged, and thei were brought t o b an k as spee dil y as poss ible. The pit will be laid off work a fortnight by the accident but it is a fortunate circumstance that the explo sion did not happen in the boilers connected with the main engine, or else the pit might have been drowned with water before the damage was repaired. The boiler that has burst was from eight to nine years old, and had been repa iredGovemmaebnot Inspecto r, ta p eetor fort night ago. Mr. D unn, visited the pit this afternoon ; and if the quarrel between the county magistrates and the coronor— Mr. Ramsey, the owner of the pit, being by a coin cidence a Durham county magistrate—is sufficiently arranged as regards the payment of the fees of the coroner, it is probable an inquest will be held, when the facts with regard to the condition of the boiler at the time of the explosion may be deposed to on oath. Holmes, a steady, decent young man, has left an aged mother, whose sole support he was. Johnson has left a widow and three young children. It is a providential circumstance that the explosion did not occur half an hour later. At that hour, six o'clock, the drivers and putter lads gather from the neighbouring villages to go down into the pit, and as the morning was cold a crowd of them would have been gathered round the furnace fires, and from the amount of destruction that has occurred there would have been an awful slaughter among them.
