The quiet and secluded village of Darley, near Ripley, on the line of the Leeds Northern Railway, was yesterday the scene of unusual excitement in consequence cf the discovery of the murder, by her lover, of a young person named Mary Jane Scaife, under circumstances of great barbarity lied cruelty. The deceased, who was about 22 years of age, was the daughter of Mr. Thomas Scaife, a respectable far mer, residing at Darley, and her murderer, James At kinson, is the son of Mr. Thomas Atkinson, flax spinner, a gentleman of some local position, and possessing considerable properly. The parents of both reside with in a short distance of each other, and the deceased and the murderer had been companions from child hood. the affection of children extending itself to that of love as they grew to manhood and womanhood, and each learning to look upon the other as a future partner through life. Unfortunately, the father of Atkinson and the mother of the deceased did not approve of the match, and about a year ago, after more, perhaps, than the usual crosses in !eve, the connection was broken off, the deceased accept ing the addresses of a young man named Gill. The new love, however, did not prove permanent, and after a few months Miss Scaife broke off the courtship with Gill, and permitted the renewal of that with her old lover. The attentions of the latter were continued as before their interruption 12 months previously ; but on Tuesday last, on the occasion of a gala at Bewerley-park, Atkinson saw Miss Scaife in conversation with Galt, and this cir cumstance appears to have excited a strong feeling of jealousy, and a day or two after he met one of Miss Setae's brothers, to whom he complained of her conduct. Whether his passion at that time suggested the fearful crime he afterwards perpetrated is uncertain, but not Bing occurred to excite any suspicion, and the two met, each other as usual. On Sunday night they attended Hermit!' Chapel in company, and on returning they were seen to go up Stump-lane, apparently on very good terms. This was about nine o'clock. Shortly afterwards Atkinson returned home, and went to bed. The absence of the deceased created no uneasiness at home, as she had been in the habit of staying with her uncle, Mr. Downes, farmer. At day break next morning Atkinson's brother, who slept in the same room, noticed blood upon the shirt of the former, and asked how it had come there, when he was horrified by being told by his brother that he had murdered Mary Jane Scaite the previous night. The father was immediately called up, and the family roused. In the meantime, however, a man known by the name of Potter Dick,whilst going along Stump lane, about five o'clock, found the deceased lying the ditch with her throat cut, and quite dead. He gave an alarm, and Mr. George Horton, surgeon, and policeman Clifford, were soon on the spot, but their services were of - no avail. The deceased, when found, was lying on her back, nod she presented a most fearful spectacle. Her head was nearly severed from the body, her dress and face were saturated with clotted blood, ber eyes protruded from the sockets with the most ghastly exprsssion, indicating the violence of her dying convulsions, and the ground was covered with evi dences of the fearful struggle that had taken place. The parasol of the deceased was broken to pieces, and her prayer-book was found by her side. The body was re moved to the New Inn, and Atkinson being the last person seen in her company, he was taken into custody, when be admitted the murder, stating that he had cut her throat with a knife, which be had secreted in Mr. Myers' wall, and declaring that it was his father and her mother who had caused it by opposing their m arl iage The knife (an ordinary clasp-knife) was afterwards found as stated, the prisoner taking the police-officer to the wall, and pointing out where he had placed it. At the spot where the murdered body was found is a small embankment or earn, consisting of the mud taken from the adjoining ditch, and it is supposed that Atkinson had thrown his victim upon it, and then cut her throat. As we have previously stated, the ground shows that a violent struggle ensued, the deceased, though only a weakly person, being with difficulty overpowered. The prisoner was in the first instance removed to Pateley Bridge, and afterwards to Ripon, where he was taken before Mr. Charles Oxley, charged r, ith the wilful murder of Mary Jane Scalfe. He is a good-looking young man, and appeared to be overpowered by his feelings. Previous to the charge being made he gate utterance to several matters connected with this melancholy affair, amongst which were, " I have been very happy ever since I left Pateley Bridge. I have committ ed a great crime, but lam quite content. I can go freely to the gallows. I can forgive the vilest of the vile. I am guilty. I left her about half-past 9 o'clock last night." The prisoner was remanded until 11 o'clock on Wednes day next, at Knaresborough. On leaving the dock the prisoner, turning round, said— " Gentlemen, I hope to meet you all in heaven." The inquest on the body will be opened to-day, before Mr. Brown, the coroner for the district. Inspector Wetherall, one of the West Riding detectives stationed at Wakefield, went over to Darley last night to get up the case, and it is probable that the inquiry this morning will only be of a formal character, there not having been sufficient time as yet to look after the necessary evi dence.—Leeds Mercury.

The Premier. having received the deputation in the council-room, The Rev. P. DALY (who acted as spokesman) presented his lordship with a memorial from the Harbour and Town Commissioners to the following effect : " To the Right Hon. the Earl of Derby, First Lord of her Majesty's Treasury. _ _ " May it please your Lordship,—The respectfuLtnemorial of the Town and Harbour Commissioners of Galway, and other inhabitants, humbly showeth, that a direct steam communication between these countries and America has already commenced through the port of Galway, by the energy and enterprise of an English mercantile gentleman of great pecuniary resources, and important connections with commercial men in Manchester, Liverpool, and London, who has already despatched a large and powerful steam ship to New York, to touch at Halifax, and land her Ma jesty's mails there. " That two other vessels of more power and greater speed are already advertised to sail on the same route, one on the 27th inst., and the other on the 24th of next month, thus forming a line of vessels on this route of three ocean steamers, to ply fortnightly, carrying passengers and goods, and transmitting intelligenc e b etween these kingdoms and the American Continent by a shorter route, with more cer tainty, safety, and despatch than has hitherto been afforded. " That the port of Galway has been selected from its posi tion and its great facilities and ad vaetages for carrying out this great project, which now t eems to have received the approval of the mercantile community of these kingdoms, and to have realised a universal wish, long cherished, of bringing closer the ties of commerce and friendly intercourse between the 'Western World and the Briti,h Empire. "That such an enterprise, so last in its object, and cal culated to be cf such universal benefit, seems to your memo rialists to be worthy the special attention of her Majesty's Ministers, and deserving of such ed and encouragement as may insure its being successful. "That being of imperial ir:terest, it is considered that the vast natural advantages-,f the port of Galway should be so adapted to the wants of great steamers as that every conve nience and facility should be rifferdM for landing passen gers, mails, eend goods as would ensure every comfort and remove every possible impediment. "That with a view to these objects in connection with the subject ofawestern packet station, the port and harbour of Galway have been frequently surveyed by scientific men of great experience, who have recommended that a breakwater and pier connecting Mutton Island with the land, and project ing 500 yardsoutwards, would enable the largest vessels afloat to ride in perfect safety, and be moored to the pier, protected from every wind, and secured in the firmest anchorage; and that the eminent contractor, Mr. Dugan, in the year 1852, proposed to execute all these works for the comparative small sum of £152000. "That the port of Galway thus improved would afford to shipping in distress on the western coast_the surest and safest harbour of refuge. " That hoping your lordship is already impressed with the imperial utility of having such a harbour, and the great value of opening the new and direct route to trade and commerce, we approach your lordship with confidence to solicit your powerful mediation with the Government to make such grant of money as w ill e ff ect t h e said improve ments in the ' harbour, the Lords of the Admiralty having already given their sanction to the construction of these works, in permitting the bill called the Galway Harbour Improve meet Bill to pass into law in 1853. "And your memorialists will ever pray." The Earl of DERBY having examined the chart of the harbour, said that he believed only one large steamer had sailed for America, and inquired the cause of the delay in not despatching the Prince Albert. POLICE INTELLIGENCE, Aug. 5. - I THAMES.—JUVENILE FEAR OF DISCIPLINE IN REFORMATORY ;:' , I , IIGOLS AND PRISONS.—Two boys, named _Edwin Turner and Thontasilaneock, wete brought before Mr. Yardley charged with sealing a piece of lead piping, value 25.. from au unoccupied house in Cut-throat lane, Bow, Middlesex. A police constable, named Stock'ey, No. 115 K, said he saw the prisoners in the Beaumont, Cernetrey, this morning, at 6 o'clock. The younger boy, Hancock, was concealing something under his jacket, and he found it to be a piece of lead piping. He asked the prisoners where it came from, a'ad the reply was that it came out of an unoc cupied house in Cut-throat-lane. Mr. Yardley —A singular name for a public street in this metropolis. The mother of Hancock got into the witness-box, sobbing loudly, and said h er boy was at home at five o'clock this morning, and he had no father. She was out from morning till night hard at work, and could not look after him. Mr. Yardley —How old is he? The Mother—He is not 15 yet; about 14 and a half. Mr. Yardley—He has given his age at 16. It has now become the practice for boys to state that they are older than they really are to escape a long detention in a Re formatory. Roche, the goaler—That is the case, sir. Boys are Belched to adopt that course by old offenders among the juverile population. I have no doubt this boy is connected with a gang of young thieves. Mr. Yardley was glad to see a wholesome fear of the dis cipline in boys prisons and reformatories. Boys must not expect to be treated as men. He should treat Hancock as a boy of 14, and sentence him to one calendar month's impri sonment and hard labour. The mother of the boy Turner, who said she lived at 1, Ashley-place, Ball-lane, Stepney, then got into the witness bax, and gave her boy a good character. She said he was at work in a rope-ground ontil last Saturday. Mr. Yardley.—He is 17 years of age, and has been leading on the younger boy, I am afraid. Mrs. Turner.-oh, no, no, sir; he is a very honest lad. Mr. Yardley.—l shall remand him until Monday next, and cause inquiries to be made about him. MARLBOROUGH - STREET. A PUGILIST IN TROUBLE.—Joseph Bostock, a pugilist, and who has several times figured at police courts, was charged with the following assault on an elderly female natuad Ann Rich bell : The prosecutrix said she, resided at 4, Charlton-street, and the prisoner was a lodger. On the previous evening, about 6 o'clock, he burst open her room door, gave her a violent kick, struck her, and said he would murder her husband. Toe only cause she could assign was that she had given him notice that morning to leave.' - She sufficed great pain from the effects of the kick. John Gibbs said he was at the house' at the time. Saw the prisoner throw a brickbat at him, and afterwards a knife. Sergeant King, 486, said he was called to the house by a female who told him that there was a man running about the house with a knfe threatening to murder her father. Went to the place and took the prisoner into custody. Oa the road to the station he was very violent and kicked him on the knee cap, and he had been obliged to go to a sur e eon in consequence. The prisoner said the complainant's house was full of females, who got persons there and robbed them. Mr. Beadon said whatever the prosecutrix's house might be that would not justify him in committing that assault. Committed for three mouths. THUNDER STORM AND FLOODS' ON THE BORDER. The district of country between this place and the north of England was visited on Sabbath morning last by a very severe storm of thunder arid lightning, accompanied by a very heavy rain. The damage done in our immediate neigh bourhood was not great, if we except the washing away of some fields of turnips, and s 'me damage to farm build- ings on the banks of the Bowmont and the Kale. The wooden bridge near the village of Morebattle was carried away, and one or two fields of turnips were completely swept away. The Kale rose to a greater height than for some years past, and flooded the 'laughs in all directions. At Linton Bumfoot the rain gauge was found running over, and had been so for a considerable time ; and as the gauge indicated 21 inches, that quantity, exclusive of what fell over the gauge, must have descended in the space of seven hours. In Kelso, on Saturday evening, the appearance of an ap proaching storm became very apparent about eight o'clock. Towards the south and south-west the clouds became highly electrified, while the atmosphere was murky and oppressive. Tho storm gathered threateningly as the evening auvanced, and at about ten o'clock the elemental war of thunder and lightning had reached its climax, though the rain did not fall in such heavy torrents till an hour after that period. The sheet, but more especially the forked lightning, played, in rapid succession, with fearful brilliancy and intensity. The corn was very much laid in several fields in the neigh bourhood, but beyond this no damage was done. At Jedburgh brilliant flashes of lightning and loud peals of thunder followed each other in quick succession; while the rain poured down i❑ torrents, followed by strong gusts of wind. The injury done to the grain crop• by the heavy fall of rain mast have been considerable, while the turnips have also suffered iu some quarters. A large ash tree grow ing down the roadside at the footpath which leads up to the Bonjedward House was blown right across the road and also the line of railway, stopping all passage for horse or gig. It was, however, removed about nine o'clock, and it being Sabbath morning little inconvenience was cau.e.l by it. The Jed was very much swollen en account of the large quan tity of rain which had fallen. In Berwick about midnight the storm commenced, and continued with terrific violence for several hours. The thunder pealed incessantly and awfully loud, while the flashes of lightning which glared athwart the sky, illumi nating at short intervals the fearful blackness of the heavens, rendered the scene one of the wildest and most sublime imaginable. The wing also swept in violent gusts, and rain poured in terrentQ, flooding the streets to an extraordinary degree. The wind and rain together have had the effect of partially laying considerable quautities of grain in this neighbourhood; but the injury thus sustained, it is hoped, will not prove permanent, since a good deal of it has again been raised. The storm appears to have raged with great violence over the greatest portions of the counties of Durham and North umberland In the latter county it was the most severely felt. The stone arch which carries the North-Eastern Rail way over the river near the Locker station was partly dis troyed by the force of the cerrent. A communication was, however, soon formed, and the traffic of the line was not at all impeded. The brooks and rivers became very muck swollen, and the rush of water on the turnpikes has in some places done considerable damage by washing away the road. The storm seemed to begin at about twenty miles to the southward of Newcastle, and to move in a northerly direc tion, passing through Northumberland along the east of the Chillingham hills. The lightning was most terrific, and so vivid and long-continued that occasionally objects could be seen at a distance of a mile. The quantity of rain wiiieli fell must have been most enormous, no les than 26,000,000 ef gallons having fallen into the Male Dean Water Com pany's reservoir at Whittle Dean alone; which accounts for the turbid state of the water. The amount registered at. the Literary and Philosophical Society's rain-gauge was 74.100, or as nearly as possible three-quarters of an inch. That this was a large fall for a few hours may be judecd from the fact that it takes a steady ordinary rain of '24 hours to produce a depth of kalf-an-inch. The thunderstorm was severe alone the range of the English border, from Carlisle round by Whitehaven. At Carlisle a huge bail of fire, which lighted up the whole town with a lurid glare, fell, but did no mischief. Near Whitehaven a one -masted fiat was wrecked in the tempest of wind which accompa n i e d the thunder, an d the crew perished. The storm of wind seems to have been general over the kingdom, and a good many ships went down, and orchards of fruit were terribly devast ated.--Kelso Mail. TIIIS DAY'S MARKEES. MARK-LANE.

The executive committee of the Saciety for Promoting the Adoption of Vote by Ballot have issued the following ad dress to the public : " The late division on the ballot affords us an opportunity of I eviewiNg the progress of the question. When Mr. Grote quitted parliament the great question of corn law repeal absorbed public atten lien, and the ballot was not agitated in parliament or the country from 1841 to 1848. In the parliament elected in 1847 the ballot was brought yearly be fore tite.Hou,e of Commons by Mr. Henry Berkeley, the numbers voting being as follows : Ayes. 1848 1849 1850 1851 1852 " On two occasions, it will be seen, Mr. Berkeley obtained a majority, but in each case at too late a period of the year to allow of further progress being made with the measure. The effect of these reiterated discuscions was to increase the number of the supporters of the ballet in the parliament elected in 1432. Shortly after the general election of 1852 this society was established. We have sedulously attended to securing the presence, at the yearly divisions, of mem bers favourable to the measure ; and the result of our labours is an increase in the number of Mr. Berkeley's supporters, on each division in the last and present parliaments. The following are the numbers:— Ayes. Noes. 1853 1854 1855 1856 .. (with pairs) 156 "This division was snapped in the absence of many friends. Noes. Ayes. Noep. 1857 (pairs included) 219 .. (pairs included) 287 1858 (pairs included) 222 .. (pairs included) 319 "This state of things shows progress. It is the result of the labours of the society, of the personal exertions gtatoi tously given of members of the executive committee, and of a systematic course of (1) parliamentary, (2) electoral, and (3) educational agitation. "1. The views ef every member nra ascertained imme diately on his election. If opposed to the ballot, a condensed library of evidence and reasoning on the question is placed in his hands. By circulars, and the labours of n embers of the society, who are also members of Parliament, the attend ance of the pledged supporters of the ballot is secured at divisions. The course taken by every member on the ques tion is brought before his constituents and the public. " 2. Whenever a vacancy occurs in the represeutwion the constituency is visited, aid the question of the ballot agi tated by deputations, lectures, and the distribution of tracts. An extensive correspondence is kept up with electors in all districts, informing them upon matters connected with the progress of the cause, and engaging their personal co-opera tion iu discussing the question with opponents, in distrihu t ing tracts, procuring petitions, and soliciting the votes in parliatnet:t of their local members. " 3. The boroughs and counties are visited by deputations of the society, and meetings held in favour of the ballot, which the electors are specially invited to attend. Tracts on the question are circulated among the electors and other in habitants; in all 303,000 tracts have been distributed by the society. _ _ _ " Our aim is to leave no one desli!•ute of the means of perceiving how injurious open voting and its results are to himse:f and the community. To the influence by which his supported we oppose the power of reason and the claims of justice, and we meet by facts the sophisms by;which open voting is defended. Further arid increasingly strenuous exertions are necessary to set the seal of final success upon the past. The ground we have gained demands and inspirits to redoubled effort. The ballot is not gained, but it has pro gressed. We are daily gaining the co- operatiou of men of wealth, intelligence, and influence, who ere fast swelling our ranks. The ballot, thanks to the parliaments and people of our Australian colonies, is, with the assent of the Queen, on the advice of her Ministers, an established institution in the British dominions. The work must be carried on. There must be more meetings, more tracts, more conferences, more agitation. Every borough and every county which has not been yet must be visited. Every constituency whose representatives have not hitherto supported Mr. Ber keley's motion must be invited to memorialise its members to vote for the ballot. We are approaching the sixth year of our struggle. We ask of you to replenish our pecuniary means for sustaining it—we appeal to you to create confi dence in our cause and dismay in its opponents, by enabling us to carry on our work with increased activity and spirit. We ask you, not only to subscribe yourselves, but to invite your friends and neighbours to join us. We are confident we shall not ask in vain." MANSLAUGHTER.—On Monday John Stott was brought up at the Manche s t er P o li ce - court, on reman d, charged with causing the death of Joh n J ones , a s h oe maker, by kicking him, on Sunday the 25th ult. The depositions of the deceased, which had been taken by the advice of the house surgeon of the Royal Infirmary, w ere read. He said he was standing near the Packhorse, Wood-street, on Sunday, between twelve and one o ' c l oc k , when the prisoner ald two °theta came up and spoke to him. They went together to a beer-house in Spinning Field, and had a quart of ale. The man who was w ith - Stott produced three cards, and Jones was induced to bet 61. upon the shuffling of them. He aft erwar d s c harged his companions with cheating hint. When he said that, Stctt's com panion struck him, and Stott kicked him in the side. He also kicked him in the belly several times, until he fell down insensible. When he regained his consciousness he was in great pain. About six o'clock in tie evening he was taken to another house, whence he was removed to the Royal infirmary. His death occurred o n Saturday. On Monday afternoon an inquest was held upon the body of the deceased by Mr. Herford, epy c ,roner. Jones's depositions were produced and read, aai,t t he house sot geon of the infirmary, Mr. F. J.

TIL.. evidence showed that on the previous Monday afternoon she had been fighting in Back Duke-street, Oldtlatu, with 'A I min named John Bromley, having a child only nine weeks old in her arms, and in the struggle the infant was thrown to the ground and both its ar►ns were broken. She was committed fur one raqttb, with hard 14botir. The Rev. Mr. DALY replied that the delay was to be at ibined to the want of those very works which the deputa tion were prepared to advocate. A tremendous storm in the Channel had detained the vessel on her way from the port of London. The rev. gentleman having explained to his lordship the nature and extent of the proposed works, and all the many natural advantages which the harbour of Galway presented as a western packet station and place of refuge for ships, proceeded to say that whatever diversity of opinion might have previously existed in Ireland on the subject of the best site for an American packet station, all classes were now agreed as to the superior claims of Galway to be the point of embarkation for the American continent. The Earl of DERBY—I thought the commissioners had reported in favour of Foynes ? The Rev. Mr. DALY—No, my lord; rather in favour of Galway. Tke Earl of DERBY—Galway has now got the start at all events. What sort of passage did the Indian Empire make out? The Rev. Mr. DALY said that the ship would have made a splendid passage, but that she met an accident which re duced her steam power a fourth, if not a third. The Earl of DERBY—Did she not run on the only rock in the whole neighbourhood? (Laughter.) The Rev. Mr. DALY said that such was the fact, and that the two pilots who had the vessel in charge at the time were committed to stand their trial for the offence, but that one of them had since died. - Assistance has been granted to other hartru,s. The Earl of DERBY—Yes, but there are chiefly works caned out under Government loans. The Rev. Mr. DA.LY—But there have been no loans to Holyhead, to Portland, or to Alderney. The Earl of DERBY—WeII, I am afraid there would be no security for loans in those places. (Laughter.) But surely with the prosperity of Galway by means of this new steam packet company which is making so much money, there would be no difficulty in giving security. The Rev. Mr. DALY—If the Government will accept my own personal security, there will not be the least difficulty in giving it. (Laughter, in which Lord Derby heartily joined.) The Earl of DERBY—But seriously, gentlemen, this is a large sum of money which you ask, and— The Rev. Mr. DALY—It is only £152,000 against the many millions which have been gran ed for similar works in England. fhe Earl of DERBY—WeII, I cannot, of course, give you a reply without consulting with the Chancellor of the Ex chequer and my other colleagues. It is, however, a prin ciple of the Government to help those who help themselves., and I am bound to say that you have done something in that way. I will only now say that it is not improbable that the Government may be disposed to co-operate whit the town of Galway to some extent; but to what extent I cannot say until I speak to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and until we see how the project of a western packet station is likely to sticeeed. The Rev. Mr. DALY—That is as much as we can expect, though I should have been glad to hear your lordship say that you would give us the money. (Laughter-) The Earl of DERBY-1 dare say you would—(laughter) —hut you know this steam company is to pay 10 per cent. You will not, of course, to content with less. (Laughter.) The Rev. Mr. DALY said that, personally, it was imma terial to him whether the speculation paid five per cent. or 10 per cent., as he had not a shilling invested in it; but that be and the other memb2rs of the deputation had inter ested themselves in the tuf,tter with the view of promoting the prosperity of Galway and of the empire generally. As for Mr. Lever, he believed that gentleman would be well satisfied if his expenses were paid by the first trip, and ..'nas the second yielded him a profit of 5 per cent. on his capital. There were, however, great obstacles in the way at present in consequence of the absence of a pier and breakwater. Th e goods had to be taken out in lighters, in consequence of be ing brought by railway, to the ship's side, and this, his lord ship must know, was a tedious and costly process. The Elrl of DERBY said be was quite aware of this drawback, hut that all he could then say was that the sub ject was an important one, and should receive the best at tention cf the Government. The Rev. Mr. DALY—We are much indebted to your lord•l4ip for going so fully into the matter. The Earl of DERBY—WeII, if you do not get the money it will not be the fault of the Earl of Eglinton, for I assure you he has written very strong letters to me on the sub j ect. The Rev. Mr. DALY — We should be gl a d if your lordship would act upon the recommendation of the Earl of Eglinton. The Earl of DERBY—(laughing)—Especially since you have beard how he has written to me on the subject. (Laughter.) Lord Eglinton indeed takes very great intere'-' in the welfare of Gaiway and the success of this enterpe' The r ßev. 11 r. welfare DAr. of Ireland.

RAIL IG AY INTELLIGENCE. BOY 'BAY AND BABODA. An extraordinary general meeting cf this company Was held at the London' Tavern yesterday, to elect five directors in the piece of a lil ;e number retiring—Col. Fieuch in the chair. Dr. ATKINS Wu, Ed to know whether the notice calling the meeting bad bet :n drawn up in conformitywith the pro visions of the deed of settlement, and whether he had given a legal notice of h t intention to stand as a candidate ? The SOLICITC at replied in the affirmative, and after a short converse t tic n, Dr. ATKINS withdrew his own claim, an d moved the election of Col. - F renc h , w hi c h was carr i e d unanimously. The lion. orMrj Vereker, Mr. Hartridge, Mr. Mitch ell, and Mr. James Landon, were tneu respectively put and elected, a eomr braise having been entered into to avoid e co , .test between ;ate rival parties connected with the line. Admiral Smyth remarks that "the harrier at the entrance of the Straits (of Gibraltar) marks the commencement of the western basin, which descends t i as abysmal profundity, and extends as far as the central part of the sea, where it flows over another b arr i er , an d again falls into the yet un fathomed depths of the Levant basin." The greatest depth of water is found in some parts of this, the eastern and largest of the basins. It is reported that soundings have been taken about 90 miles east of Malta to the amazieg depth of 15,000 feet; and between Cyprus and Egypt 6,000 feet of line have been run out without reaching the bottom. These are the results of single experiments; but it appears from a regular series cf soundings lately made from Egypt to the Archipelago, that between Alexan dria and Rhodes the bottom was only found at the depth of 9,900 feet, and between Alexandria and Caudia the sound ings were upwards of 10,000. The western basin of the 'Mediterranean, having the beautiful islands of Corsica and Sardinia nearly in its centre, has been the focus of an exten sive volcanic action, both submarine an d su b terranean, of which lEtna and Vesuvius are existing witnesses. The course of the Phkegrean fires may be traced from the Lipari Islands to the Campagna of Rome. In the Island of Sar dinia they have been especially active, a large tract of the vast Campidano being studded with round-topped bills, the craters of extinct volcanoes, and the Plutonic formations appearing in many parts of the southern and western coasts. Whatever may have been the disruptions caused in ages long remote by this extensive and violent igneous action, to which probably these coasts a nd i s l an d s owe much of their' present configuration, it does not appear that the depths of the Mediterranean, as far as they have been plumbed, are anything like so great in this western as in the eastern basin. But we find that even in the Straits, between Gib ralta and Ceuta, nearly 6,000 feet of line have been run out without meeting the bottom ; and further to the westward" no soundings have been obtained. Fortunately in the lines of telegraph cable already laid in this basin, the depths, though opposing serious obstacles to the enterprise, have not been found so great as to preclude its success. Tbey appear, however, to be only just within the compass of the machinery and the s'ructure of the cables at present used in these undertakings, as Mr. W. Siemens, C.E., remarked in a paper lately read before the Society of Arts, that " upon calculations of the strain cf the cable in leaving the vessel, an iron -sheathed cable cannot, under the most favourable circumstances, be laid in water more than three miles in depth." "A Grumbler," with the usual contrariety of that disposition, positively finds something to like in what all the rest of the world is complaining of ! The novelty of this defence, and the suggestions which accompany it, deserve the at tention of the reader. "The Thames and its Diffi culties" come under the consideration of a penetrat ing reformer, who commences his inquiry by exclaiming, " A thousand blessings on the head of that man who contrived that the new Houses of Parliament should stand upon the site of the former houses !" He proceeds to say that to this unknown personage, "grateful Shoreditch, grateful Lambeth, grateful ,Chelsea, grateful Bethngl-green, recognisant Pimlico should erect statues." This honour he is to claim at the hands of the afflicted dwellers by the metropolitan river, for having for cibly impressed on the legislators in general the im mediate necessity for the amelioration of the sanitary condition of London. The story of " Hanworth, which commenced last month, continues pleasantly, and promises interest. An alarming prospect of rival affections is indicated in this part. The scientific reader will be attracted by a paper on the geology and extinct volcanoes of France, founded on Mr. Poulett Scrope's recent work. The singular romance of " Catarina in Venice," proceeds in true Italian style, and chro nicles a fearful catastrophe. It shows considerable ability in the style. Mr. Caird, a Scotch preacher, whose name has suddenly become familiar in this country, receives a warm testimony to the power and effect of his sermons. The ability and earnest practical feeling evidenced by the famous sermon, " Religion in Common Life," published by the Royal command a few years since, will induce a large class of readers gladly to avail them selvesof the opportunity of extending their acquaint ance with Mr. Caird, through the volume of his ser mons just announced by Messrs. Blackwood. There are other topics of interest discussed.

Lately, however, Indian trav e llers' tales have taken the pla ce o f th e wr., of Crimr..;an adventurers, and therefore the 1111 P:ce,sions of a " Guardsman in Constantinople" r • alay be an agreeable variety. A paper on M. Cape figue's memoirs of Madame de Pompadour gives a summary of the principal events of her career. Dudley Costello's tale is progressing with his accus tomed prolixity, and narrates some wonderful changes. Another paper on French biography is given us by Monkshood in his " New Book Notes." He takes under consideration a recent work by M. Arsene Koussage on " King Voltaire," in which the biographer apparently goes a little mad respecting the universal influence of this absolute sovereign. " Death—its Glory and its Beauty," is a poem con taining some thoughtful verses on the real nature and attributes of the misnamed King of Terrors, showing how "it consoles while it appals. This subject reappears in our old friend " Thanatos Atha natos," where a graceful and pensive essay on the different views and aspects of death is slowly pro ceeded with. It is a matter of surprise, as well as Hisregret to us, that Mr. Thornburg s h ould find 8 0 little inspiration in an inspir itin g subject. " Napoleon Ballads" have been throughout very inferior to what might have been anticipated from , the author of the "Songs of the Cavaliers and Roundheads," though giving full opportunity for spirit and vare , ty. The present one, " T he Retreat from Moscow, , is no better than its predecessors; the concluding verses can only raise a smile. An essay on the " Indian Mutinies, the Native Feeling and English Government," concludes the number. The followina dppo:ntmerts were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Tirnotheus J.

Fraser.—A curious paper, entitled " The Com monplace Book of Richard Willes," is the first that meets the reader in this number of Fraser. He was an English gentleman who lived in the beginning of the sixteenth century, whose manuscript now re poses in state in the library at Balliol College, Oxford. It displays, the writer tells us, more than any other single volume he has met with, the mental furniture of an average-educated man of the time. Stories in prose and verse, proverbs, dissertations on education, confession, horticulture, and farriery, recipes, prescriptions, science, statistics, hymns, and ballads, mingle in admired disorder. There does not appear to be any extraordinary ability displayed in this motley collection, to judge from the extracts given, but they give a fair sample of the mind and manners of the time among the quiet middle classes. The scraps of information will attract the curious, such as the rules for craftsmen, bakers, brewers, &c. An account of the telegraph cable laying in the Mediterranean gives some interesting statistics. In speaking of the depths of the Mediterranean, it is observed that this sea may be considered as divided into two great basins.
