APPEAL-THE LONDON, BRIGHTON, AND SOUTH COAST RAILWAY COMPANY V. THE LONDON AND SOUTH WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. The farther hearing of this part-heard appeal motion was resumed this morning. _ _ Mr. Wilcox, followed Mr. Rolt, Q.C. for the ap pellants. This is an appeal from a decision of Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood, refusing an injunction to re strain the respondents from using the appellants' line and station as a joint line and station contrary to the com panies' joint traffic contract and relative railway acts of Parliament, 1847-1858, and for compensation. Mr. Taylor followed on the same side. It is probable the arguments will occupy several days. VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard Torin Kindersley.) JUDGMENT. -HODGSON V. BOWER. His Honour, the Vice-Chancellor, said- 2 -The point that I reserved for judgment in this case is the pure question whether the memorandum or agreement of 21st April, 1858, is one, under all the other circumstances, which this Court can decree specific performance of. I have some doubts whether the allegation in it are sufficiently expressed in reference to the duration of the terms. This is an agree. ment for a lease for 21 years, to be terminated by the lessee not only at the end of the first 21 years, but any other. Now, not only at the end of the first 21 years, being the first appointed term in the agreement, but any other, the lessor could grant a further term at the expiration of 21 years. Therefore I decree specific performance of the agreement, with costs up to the hearing of the present decree. Decreed accordingly. ROLLS COURT. (Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly). JUDGMENT-HODGKINSON V. THE NATIONAL LIVE STOCK INSURANCE COMPANY..---SAME V. SAME.-SAME V. SAME. His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—The only argument offered affects the bill in genial, and I think the demurrer must be overruled. There is a great deal in the case upon which I do not like to express my opinion until the hearing. It is a point which must be decided upon principle, and one which must be argued on the bill, and could only be determined by the bill. I refer to the 19th and 22d proposed alterations by the company in the year 1855, by which the defendant was taken bound to pay, by way of deposit, 560 shares. It was agreed that the defend ant, Edward Hodgkinson, should be exonerated from all liability with respect to the £4,000 shares for which he sub scribed the deed of agreement, upon condition that he be came a member and holder of 560 shares, upon which he paid a deposit and transferred them to the company. His Honour was of opinion that it was ultra vires of the directors to enter into this agreement without being autho rised to do so by a general meeting of the company. His Honour thought there were sufficient allegations made in the bill to support it. His Honour overruled the demurrer, and reserved the costs to be disposed of at the hearing of the cause.—Demurrer overruled. BAIL COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Wightman and a Common Jury.) WEBB V. WILLES--SEDUCTION. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a widow lady, named Webb, against the defendant for the seduction of her daughter. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Henry James appeared for Webb, and Mr. Montague Chambers, Q.C., and another learned gentleman appeared for Willes. Mr. Edwin James, in opening the case, said the present action was brought by the plaintiff, a widow lady named Webb, residing at Lockridge, against the defendant Willes, a person residing at Marlborough, carrying on an extensive business as a maltster and baker, for the seduction of her daughter. The unfortunate young lady, the person most deeply interested in the present pro ceedings, was about 24 years of age, and the defendant was about 14 years older than Miss Webb. Tho acquaintance between the parties first commenced in the year 1851, when the daughter of the plaintiff first went to visit Mr. Henry Willes, a farmer, at 'Whitfield, and a cousin of Mt. Sidney Wiles, the defendant. The acquaintance 'vas continued, and in • the year 1856 it was supposed that the defendant was paying his addresses to Miss Webb for the purpose of marriage. In the year 1858 the marriage had not taken place, and in Septem ber of that year the plaintiff's daughter was delivered of a child. The learned gentleman then read a letter addressed by Miss Webb to the defendant, a short time previous to the birth of the child, in which she implored him to save her from disgrace and misery by performing his promise of marriage. No answer had been returned to that letter, and he (Mr. James) was utterly at a loss to imagine what defence could be set up by the defendant. Moralists had of late talked much about the "social evil," but such cases as the present tended to increase that calamity, and it was the duty of jurors to stop, by their verdicts, the evil, as far as it was possible. The first witness called was Mrs. Jane Webb, who said—l am the plaintiff in this action, and I reside at Lockridge. I have lived there about two years. In 1851 I was living at Ogbourne, in Wilt bhire. I have a daughter Mary. She is now between twenty-four and twenty-five. I knew a Mr. lienry Willes, a farmer, residing there. He was the cousin of Mr. Sidney Willes, the defendant. In 1851 my daughter went on a visit to Mr. Henry Willes, and conse quently made the acquaintance of Mr. Sidney Willes. In about 1853 or 1854 I removed to Lockridge, about three miles from Marlborough ; and while living there my daughter frequently visited Mr. Henry 'Wines, and saw Mr. Sidney Willes. I saw Sidney Willes at my residence about three times after that. He was paying his ad dresses to my daughter. It was about 12 months after I went to Lockridge. I first saw him there when he came to tell me of a situation for my son. After that he paid another visit to Ogbourne. I dealt with him for bread, and my daughter used to go to Marlborough for it. My daughter was delivered of a child in September, 1858. I first became aware that she was enciente in April. Shortly after finding that my daughter was in that condition she quitted Lockridge and went to Mr. Henry Willes, at Whit field, and afterwards removed to Wroughton, near Swin don. She afterwards went to Wadsworth, where she was confined in September last. The child is still living. I paid the expenses of the accouchment, and ever since then I have had to paintain my daughter and her infant. She has never liven at home since that time. Cross-examined by Mr. Montague Chambers—My daughter was 24 last January. lam not sure, however, that she was not 25. Mr. Justice Wightman—Don't you know the age of your daughter ? Witness—Not exactly. Cross-examination continued—My daughter first went to visit Mr. Willes, the cousin of the defendant, in 1851. She went frequently. She used to act as my housekeeper. After my daughter had ordered the bread one of the defen dant's men brought it home. The first time I saw Sidney Willes was when he came to tell me about the situation for my son. He supped on one occasion at my house about two years ago. I have known my daughter to return home from Marlborough as late as eleven o'clock at night, but on occasions when she came from Whitefield she was later. I generally sent her to order the bread of an afternoon and she used to return between 10 and 11 in the evening. I used to sit up for her. She generally returned home alone. Re-examined by Mr. Hawkins—l always asked her when she returned, what kept her so late, and I always got a satisfactory answer. I have a small property of my own, enough to support me. Mary Webb—l am the daughter of the plaintiff in this action. I was 24 last January. In 1851 I became ac quainted with Mr. and Mrs. Henry Willes. On the New- Year's Day of the year following I met the defendant, Sidney Willes. Between that time and March, 1852, I met bim there frequently. At this point of the case an arrangement was proposed, and it having been assented to, a verdict for the plaintiff, with £250 damages, was taken by consent of all parties. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. ;Before the Lord Chief Baron, and Barons Martin, Bram well, and Channell.) SWYNFEN V. LORD CHELMSFORD. The Attorney-General, on the part of the noble defendant said this trial stood for hearing at the last assizes at Staf• ford, but the venue had been changed to London or Middle. sex, to be heard at sittings after this term. Mr. Baron Channell said the venue was changed, but application was ordered to be made to the Lord Chief Baron as to the time at which the case should be heard. The Attorney-General said he was only anxious that the ease should not be called on during the next fortnight, as he would be unable to be in attendance during that time, and it might be thought the defendant was not ready to go on. He begged to state he was quite prepared. The Lord Chief Baron said he saw nothing to take the case out of its order. It would come on as a special jury case at the sittings after Trinity term. SHERIFFS' COURT. DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE.-RUCKROSE V. VAUGHAN This was an action to recover a sum of money, and it had been adjourned to obtain a document in pencil, to be produced as evidence. The defendant, for whom Mr. Buchanan appeared, affirmed that he had paid for certain parcels of meat, but produced no voucher for such payment. Plaintiff, on the other hand, handed in his book, from which it appeared that the amount was still due. Mr. Buchanan said it was impossible for the defendant to produce any receipt, as such things were never given in the Newgate market. His Honour was of opinion that it was for the defendant to prove payment, and he, not having done so, must pay plaintiff. - Verdict for plaintiff. MASTER AND SERVANT -SHARP V. TIB BS ' This was an application for a new trial, and Mr. Buchanan, who appeared for defendant, stated that, on the cause being heard, plaintiff positively swore that defendant had frequently promised payment. _ . Defendant now produced a receipt, and said he had paid the sum claimed. He said he never employed plaintff to do the work now claimed for ; that he (defendant) employed a person named Williams, and that he paid Williams, think ing him a master. Mr. Buchanan said Williams was in the service of plain tiff, and had no right to receive the money His Honour was of opinion that defendant had not ex ercised proper judgment in paying Williams, and refused the application. FRENCH V. M c DOUGALL—MASTER AND WORKMAN— SINGULAR CASE. Plaintiff is a journeyman wheelwright, and he sought to recover a sum of money as wages due. Mr. Buchanan appeared for the plaintiff, and stated the case as follows :—Plaintiff was on a certain day employed to do certain work in defendant's shop. When he had nearly finished he was desired to go to the docks, and upon his return he found that the shop work had been completed by another person. This happened on two or three occasions, and plaintiff having contracted to do the work at a price, he now sought that amount in full. The rule in the trade was that if a man agreed to do a piece of work, and was re moved from it by the master, he was entitled to the full amount, notwithstanding another man bad been employed. It was contended, in answer, that the rule in question was not admitted in defendant's shop. His Honour was of opinion that the defendant was en lied to a verdict. Verdict for defendant. RAMSGATE COUNTY COURT. THE LAW OP LOST PROPERTY. A case was heard on Tuesday at the Ramsgate County Court (Almond v. Masters) of considerable importance to the community at large. Mr. Buchanan, of Basinghall street, London, appeared for the defendant, a publican, of Ramsgate. It appeared that a poor man found a diamond pin, worth about £3O, in the street. He took the pin to defendant, who agreed to keep it until an owner came for ward. After keeping it some time, plaintiff came forward and claimed it, but as he could not give a very accurate account of it defendant refused to give it up. Upon this a summons was taken out, and heard on Tuesday. Plaintiff was still unable to give a description of the pin to satisfy defendant, and the judge ordered Mr. Masters to show it to plaintiff. Mr. Buchanan objected to this proceeding, but his Honour persisted, and upon the pin being handed over, plaintiff said, " I'll swear that is the very pin." His Honour, upon that, ordered it to be given up. Upon applying in the first instance to defendant, Mr. Almond had offered £5 for the pin, and Mr. Buchanan hoped that the finder would be rewarded. Mr. Almond would consider upon that. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DEFRAUDING PAWNBROKERS-SHAM GOLD WATCHES. —Mr. Bravington, pawnbroker, of Tottenham-court-road and Princes street, Coventry-street, attended the court to answer the complaint of a Frenchman for detaining a gold watch. The Frenchman having stated, through M. Albert, the interpreter at the court, that he offered the watch in pledge, and that Mr. Bravington refused to return it, Mr. Bravington said the applicant presented the watch to him in pledge, and asked the loan of £4 on it. Having good reason to suspect him, he asked if it was gold, and the applicant said it was, and that he had bought it of a gentle man. He took his address and sent for Sergeant Stephens, 11 C, to make inquiries as to its correctness, and who, on his return, stated that he did not live at the Cavendish Hotel, Sherrard-street, as he stated, but in some cottages at the back of it. He therefore refused to restore it to the applicant so that he might have the opportunity of exposing the fraud which was attempted to be committed, having already been taken in under similar circumstances, and knowing that a great many watches of a simi lar kind were being offered in pledge in various] parts of the country. On examining the watch offered by the applicant with the one he had previously received in pledge, he found that they were of exactly the same make and qua lity—of horizontal construction, and so strongly gilt as to defy the test of aquafortis, and it was only by filing that the fraud could be detected. They were well got up, the works good, and jewelled. The value of them, though sold and offered to pavinbrokers as gold, and valued by the sellers at £4 10s., was really not more than 30s. He thought it probable that the applicant was only the tool of others. Mr. Beadon said Mr. Bravington had done a great ser vice in coming forward. Sergeant Rogers said it was part of a system of.swindling now being carried on by foreigners. The watches were made at Paris, and sent here to be got, rid of—the cost of their manufacture being about 12 francs. The watch was given up to the Frenchman. Mr. Beadon said no time should be lost in exposing the fraud among the trade. Mr. Bravington said he had been informed that the par ties had been very successful, but could not get a sufficient supply of them from the maker. From the superior manner in which the watches are finished, and their being jewelled, though the jewels are of a very inferior description, they are well calculated to de ceive even experienced persons. THAMES Mr. Selfe resumed his magisterial duties this morning, after an absence of four months and one week, caused by severe indisposition contracted in the discharge of his duties as Chairman of the Commission for inquiring into the state of Military Clothing and Stores at Weedon, the Tower, and Woolwich. Mr. Selfe left the court very ill on the 17th of December last, two days after the termination of the Weedon inquiry, and to the great regret of the suitors and practitioners in this court, has not been able to preside since until this morning. After the hearing of a great many applicants who sought advice, relief, and summonses, Mr. Joseph Smith, Mr. Charles Young, Mr. Stoddart, and Mr. Fletcher, solicitors, with their clerks ; Mr. Saunders, managing clerk to Mr. Maddock, solicitor, who were seated at the table of the court, rose, and Mr. Smith said, as the senior member of the profession in court, he begged leave, on his own part, and upon theirs, to express their sincere and hearty congratulations on the magistrate's recovery to health. They all believed his wor ship had undergone a good deal of suffering, but the solici • tors present could assure him that their sympathies had been with him, and they did earnestly hope and trust that his worship would be enabled to retain that health and strength so necessary for the discharge of those important duties imposed on every magistrate. Mr. Selfe, who was deeply affected at this unsolicited and spontaneous mark of respect, which was delivered by Mr. Smith, with faltering voice, said in reply—Mr. Smith, and all the gentlemen before me, I thank you very much for your kind congratulations and sympathy. I have suffered much, but I have received great kindness during my long illness from my colleague and others. I thank you very heartily It has been a great comfort to me during some three years I have been here that so re spectable and intelligent a body of gentlemen have been practising before me, and I trust that our intimacy may be continued with the same good feeling on both sides. , The solicitors and their clerks then bowed and retired. THAMES SUBSCRIPTION CLUB UNIVERSITY BOAT RAC.? A very numerous party of members of this influ ential club and their friends partook of a handsome dinner at the Freemasons' Tavern, on Tuesday evening. The - Hon. George Denman, of the University of Cambridge, President of the Thames Subscription Club, took the chair. There were present nearly all the Oxford crew, who 'yere victorious last Fri day in the great University race, and one of the Cambridge party, and while on this subject it may be as well to state, that the report that fatal conse quences had resulted to No. 1, in the latter boat, owing to the immersion during the race, is un founded, that gentleman having perfectly recovered. The most interesting toast of the evening was " The Contending Crews of Oxford and Cambridge," which was given by the chairman, who at a subse quent period strongly reprehended the dangerous practice of rowing m such light outriggers as those used in the late race. He warmly eulogised the courage the Cambridge gentlemen had displayed in continuing to row until their boat dropped from under them, and, at the same time, entertained no doubt that the honour of their university would have induced the Oxonians to do the same. a- Mr.ARKELL, the captain of the Oxford boat, and Mr. BARRACK, of the Cambridge, replied. The former said they were proud of winning a race over those by whom they would have been proud to have been beaten. Ife explained that an offer had been made by the Cambridge crew to reverse the course, which he felt bound to refuse, for the hon our of his university, as their best prospect of suc cess was the state of the weather ; he, however, much regretted that it was not a more befitting day. Mr. BARRACK, in replying for Cambrigde, honestly declared the conviction of the whole of his crew that they must be swamped ere they com menced the race; but' they felt bound, for the honour of Cambridge, to row, and no one did so more cheerfully than a' gentleman in the boat who could not swim. A great number of other toasts were given, and in the course of the evening the chairman handed to Mr. R. N. Phillips, many years an enthusiastic promoter of boating, a silver cup, presented by the Thames Subscription Club, of which he was pre sident, and a pair of silver oars from the Christ's College (Cambridge) crew, of which he was many years ago the captain. The plate, as well as the inscription, bore undeniable proof the high esteem in which Mr. Phillips is held. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock. AUSTRIA AND PIEDMONT.

A large and highly influential private meeting of the shareholders in the Atlantic Telegraph Company, resident in Liverpool, was herd on Monday, the 18th inst., at the Clarendom Rooms, South John-street. _ _ The chairman of the company, the Right Hon. James Stuart Wortley, M.P., accompanied by Mr. Saward, the secretary, attended for the purpose of affording information, and in order to obtain the opinion of the local proprietors upon the arrange ments proposed to be submitted to the approaching extraordinary general meeting for the purpose of resuscitating this interesting undertaking. The right hon. gentleman having taken the chair, commenced his observations by stating, that although he had become the chairman of the com pany at a comparatively recent period, he was yet one of the original shareholders in it, and as evinc ing the warm regard entertained by him for the welfare of the great enterprise over which he had been called upon to preside, he mentioned that, although at present immersed in political en gagements in Yorkshire, calling for his very active attention, he had laid everything aside to come over from that county this morning for the purpose of attending the present meeting. He then went on to describe the presen t position of the company—their absence of immediate fund's for the attempted restoration of the old cable, or for the prosecution of a new one—pointing out the various applications that have been made by the board to her Majesty's Government for guarantees of a similar character to that granted with such success to the Red Sea and Indian Telegraph Com• pany, and contrasting the niggardly manner in which half measures of assistance are doled out to great national works in this country, with the large and open-handed policy of the French Government, which, although it has guaranteed fixed dividends to works of utility involving an aggregate capital of over 32 millions sterling, has never been callzd upon for any contribution whatever towards making up the dividends so secured. Mr. S. Wortley then ad verted to the terms ultimately offered by Govern ment, after long and anxious negotiations with them on the subject, which terms the directors in Lon- I don considered might form a basis in connection with other auxiliary arrangements for inducing the subscription of the necessary amount of capital for the prosecution of the work.. The terms offered were as follows :—A guarantee of eight per cent. upon the capital to be employed, not exceeding £600,000. This guarantee to be for twenty•five years, conditional upon the successful working of the cable at a rate not less than 100 words per hour. A postal contract of not less than £20,000 per annum for the business of the Government. Any excess of work to be paid for at the company's ordinary tariff. The company's contract with the American Government, whereby a further mini mum sum of £14,500 per annum is secured to the company, is to be allowed to subsist, so that by this arrangement the guaranteed revenue of the company, independent altogether of mercantile support, will be £34,500 per annum. The Government to allow £20,000 of the guaranteed capital to be expended in efforts to resusci tate the old cable. The company to transfer to government that portion of theirprivileges under the agreement between themselves which contained the exclusive right to land cables from Europe on the shores of Newfoundland. The chairman re marked in reference to these terms that they had been considered.by the board as worthy the accept ance of the company, not so much as offering amp attractive inducement to capitalists to invest in the undertaking, which had been in a more unselfish spirit than most undertakings of a public nature,as that, with subsidiary arrangements, to which he was about to refer, they would be a protection to as full an extent as is possible under the circumstances against the risks which such investments are neces sarily exposed. It wouldkbe for public spirifto do the rest, and he (the chairman) had full faith in the result. The subsidiary arrangements alluded to were—a marine insurance on the successful submergence of the new cable, which it is believed can be lteea obtained ofh eann ly a a t i condition naanidtoan e comparatively o a n s ti t m o c m t t l o i o d e n e t a ho t e reic o fio u ni t gl l o a w y o if the c v able ing basis, which Mr. Wortley was enabled to state would be readily entered into by parties of high respectability and responsibility. The contractor to make all preliminary experiments as to the form of the cable, and the manner of submerging it, charging for the same the bare cost of such experi ments. So soon as the right plans are decided on, the contra c t or t o procee d to make and lay the cable, keeping separate accounts of the whole cost, and allowing a proper check upon all his expenditure for such purpose. The profit to be calculated at a per centage upon the actual cost of making and laying the cable. The contractor to take payment in shares of the company for a portion of the actual cost of making the cable. The contractor to forfeit the whole of his profit and a penal sum of £lO,OOO absolutely if the cable, when laid, does not work satisfactorily during thirty days after the date of its submersion between shore and shore. The chairman proceeded to say that it was proposed to issue the new capital in shares of five pounds each, with a view to popularise and extend the interest in the undertaking, and that the summary of what the directors would have to offer to the public over and above the national character of the work and its value as a commercial and imperial agent, would be as follows : A capital of £600,000 in 8 per cent. preference shares, of five pounds each, guaranteed by the Government con tingent on success. 2d. A guaranteed minimum income of £34,000 per annum in support of such preference independent of public support. 3d. A policy of insurance upon the successful extension of the cable from the shores of Great Britain and Newfoundland. 4 th. A guarantee for careful ma nagement and electrical success under a con t ract similar to the one just described, wher e by th e interests of the contractor are involved absolutely in those of the company. The right hon. gentle man • concluded by hoping that the foregoing explanations would be satisfactory to the meeting, and that he might be enabled to say when the extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders took place in London, that the arrangements now shadowed forth, without committing any one to details, or anything but general policy would be acceptable to the shareholders in Liverpool. Mr. J. C. EWART, M.P., expressed his admira tion of the exceedingly lucid manner in which the chairman, with whose clearness and perspicuity he was well experienced in another place,he explained the present position of the company. He (Mr. Ewart) cprdially arrrced in the views set forth by Mr. Wortley, and ° approved of the course recom mended to be taken by the board for raising the new capital. Mr. BUSHELL, president of the Chamber of Commerce, in rising, observed that for his own part he was so satisfied with the general features of the proposal which had been so clearly and ably pointed out by the chairman, that he was desirous, if it would strengthen the hands of the board, to test the feeling of the present meeting, although a private meeting only, by offering a resolution on the subject. He would , therefore, move, " That in the opinion of this meeting the plan suggested by the chairman, the Right Hon. James Stuart Wortley, for the obtain ment of capital for the prosecution of this great work, is an admirable one, and is entitled to the best consideration and support of the Atlantic Telegraph Company." Mr. RANKIN (Messrs. Rankin, Gilmour, and Co.) seconded the resolution, which was carried unani- mously. Mr. C. HOLLAND proposed a vote of thanks to the chairman, which, having been briefly seconded by Mr. C. BUSHELL, was carried unanimously ; after which the meeting broke up. MARINE ENGINES. The report of the committee of marine engines to the Lords of the Admiralty, was issued yesterday. The committee consisted of Rear-Admiral Ramsay (chairman), Mr. James Nasmyith, and Mr. John Ward, R.N. After dealing at length with the various subjects brought under their notice, they arrive at the following conclusions : " 1. That the expenses and performances of all steam-vessels should be recorded in such a man ner as will enable the Lords of the Admiralty, when they have to make inspections, to detect at once, and without difficulty, the exact state and condition of the ships they have to examine, and also to decide upon the ship that is best suited for any particular service. _ _ 2. That a regular system of reward and promo tion for zealous and diligent engineers, of repri mand and warning for the undeserving, should at once be adopted, and made known to the service. " 3. That the number of assistant engineers be reduced, and that a class of chief leading stokers be introduced. "4. That care be taken to secure a full and prac: tical acquaintance with the great princißles of steam navigation in all officers entrusted with the command of steam vessels. " 5. That the regulations at present in use for the preservation of the machinery of the vessels in the first-class steam reserve, and the system upon which steam engines are repaired, should be modified. " 6. That a much larger amount of repairs of engines than has hitherto been the case be done by the steam reserve. " 7. That roomy and efficient floating factories, fitted with every appliance necessary for the repairs of engines, Sze., should be attached to all our out ports. "8. That the chief engineers of the dockyards where engines are being repaired should be fur nished with extracts from the quarterly reports of those engines. "9. That the routine, before the repairs are commenced, should be changed. " 10. That the purchase of complicated steam engines should be abandoned, and none received into the service but those which are marked in their construction by the most severe simplicity that is consistent with the execution of the work assigned to them. " 11. That large and powerful engines should only be placed on board ships of war, which from their tonnage and construction are adapted for their reception. " 12. That all boilers and. screw propellers em ployed in the navy, and a considerable number of marine steam engines, should be constructed in the Government factories. " 13. That the list of manufacturers from whom engines are purchased by the Government should be increased. The plan or pattern of the engine to be laid down by the steam department of the Admiralty. " 14. That the chief engineer of the Admiralty should have frequent intercoursQ with the engineers of the dockyards, who should, on their part, visit mercantile establishments and steam vessels. " 15. That two additional specifications should be inserted in all contracts for the construction of en- gine& " Ist. The indicated horse-power up to which the engines are to work, with a given supply of coal of average quality. " 2d. Strictly prohibiting the use of hot-blast iron.' " 16. That high pressure steam for marine engines should, wherever possible, be abandoned. " 17.. That the arrangement of the furnace flues at Keyham factory should be altered forthwith, and a separate chimney constructed for each furnace. " 18. That in the direct acting screw-engine, the use of cams for working the steam expansively should be abandoned, and it is recommended that a flat gridiron valve, worked from the: shaft by a separate eccentric be substituted. " 19. That the trial trips to ascertain the capa bilities of the engines and boilers of steam-vessels should last at least six hours. " 20. That reasons exist for noticing that no step involving considerable expense, as the sale, break ing up of engines, or the adoption of any plan by which steam-engines and boilers may be deteriorated, is to be entered upon without careful consideration and inquiry."
