Although, according to the telegram frOni the Admiralty, the earlier relief than contemplated by his successor, Vice-Admiral Fanshawe, was the reason assigned for the recall•of the squadron under Lord Lyoue to Malta, letters received at that island from England mention as the.real reason the departure from Tou lon of the. Algesiras and Eylau, under -Admiral Jurien de la Graviere, with sealed orders, and the assembling of a large fleet at the same port. The Vulture, steam frigate, arrived hare from Tan g iers on the 17th having on board their Royal Highnesses Prince Muley Abdallah, Prince Muley Aly, Prince Muley Ibrahim, with their wives, Sheriffs Giafar, Bubeker, and it numerous suite, on a pilgrimage to Mecca, and left for Alexandria on the 18th, on which day her Majesty's steam gun boat Coquette left for Corfu.

Dear Sir,—Our child, up t o th e age o f e l even wee k s, was very delicate and wasting away, and milk, sago, and arrowroot turned sour on its stomach, causing great suffer ing. We then fed it upon Du Barry's Revaleuta Arabica, which agreed wonderfully with her ; and she is now, at the age of nine months, a plump and lively little girl.—Dauiel Servas. Wildervank, Holland, Sept. 20, 1853. Dear Sir,- Our baby, which Heaven presented us with ten months back, was attacked,. when four weeks old, with a disease of the stomach and glands, by which our seven previous infants had all been carried off, and this last child seemed destined to follow its sisters and brothers before many' days, for our doctor, a very able practitioner, had, during three weeks, ex hausted all his skill, and was at a loss what to prescribe next, when he advised Du Barry's Revaleuta Arabiea, which, I am happy to say, worked a great change for the better in a few days ; and, in six weeks' time, the , child was perfectly well, and is now a cheerful, blooming boy—a source of the greatest happiness to us all. This delicious remedy may fairly be considered one of the greatest blessings ever disco vered.—With eternal gratitude, yours, &c., L. H. Vaalman.

At the rising of the Court the defendant, Mr. Dugdale, who had been convicted in this court of the misdemeanour of selling obscene prints in Holywell street, and sentenced to 12 months' im prisonment in the Queen's Prison, • applied for a rule calling upon certain parties to bring into court the prints and books which he alleged they had ille gally seiz d to a large amount. The applicant stated that property to the value of 3,0001. bad been seized, and that a considerable portion of it was unobjectionable on the score of morality ; and what he wanted was, that when the property was produced all that was objectionable should be de stroyed, and the remainder given up to him. Lord Campbell said the Court had no power to do what was asked. The applicant reiterated his complaint, and said the Court had already made an order that the pro petty should be inspected by a gentleman to be appointed by the Master, but that only a portion of the property was produced to him. The parties had seized the whole of his property, worth several thousand pounds. Mr. Justice Erle sugge4ed to the applicant that he should bring an action. The applicant said he had already brought an action and got damages, but they had taken away all his means. He callei on their lordships to tell him what ho mustdo.

The applicant still pressed the Court for a return of his property, but Lnrd Campbell said the Coutt could do no more for him.

The following note on the Cheque Stamp Act ex plains that not only is a cheque exempt when it is made payable to "self" and personally presented by the drawer, but also when it is presented by his clerk. It is apprehended this will materially affect the realisation of the original estimates as to the amount of revenue to be gained : " Sir,—Not only areyou correct in stating that a cheque to `self' presented personally is exempt from stamp, but it has been conceded that such a cheque Presented by a banker through his clerk is also free of tax. It is now understood that a merchant has the same privilege of presenting by his clerk as his alter ego that a banker has. " The Bank of England and the London Joint-Stook Banks pay cheques so presented. " The private bankers have hitherto paid only to bankers' clerks, their arrangements having been come to before the present construction of the Act was arrived at. " The question is now simply between the bankers and their customers, and when it is known that the law is not violated by it, they will doubtless consult the convenience of their customers, and pay to a clerk known to be acting on behalf of his employer.

Of course it is needless to say that ' the machines have all been ' housed in to prevent any of the running. rigging getting feul'of them during the working of the ship. ' Th e ex p e dition will be accompanied throughout by the Valorous and Gorgon steam frigates, which hive been set ' apart -by the -Admiralty for the purpose. Very little remains now to be done but to complete the electrical experiments-which are -being conducted by Professor Thomion, and Mr. Whitehause r the electrician - of the company. When the:s 'are finished,' which will in all prOhAbility be to-rnorrovr'- (S ;turday) evening, . the , '.expeditiori will then ,set sail on the experimental trip._ .E.JclieShip has beeii 'presided Witli i5:541'6'20 - ices'of e - en.- demned cab!e, with which the experiments will be tried. The ships when they leave the soend will , steer in a south-westerly direction out , to the At lantic, for the distance of 400 or 500:miles,. so as to get into s'eme 2, 500, fathoms water. Here the two ends of the experimental cable will be joined up, . and the splice lowered to the bottom. Each of the ships will: then steer ,in an opposite course for 15 miles, depositing the cable 'after them, and trying the effect of various, strains upon the breaks. Tile 'Operation involvedlu cutting, buoy ing,. iiiid"-pielting. up the eiel, will then be gone through, and fivally au attempt will be ma le to ' recover the laid portion - With the new hauling back engine, though of the ultimate success of this ope refill' the engineers de not express : _themselves very confident. I - UOing Concluded theee experiments, the ssquadr3n will return to Plymouth Barbour, and will then fill up with coal, and the Agamerneou will take- on-boerd the remaining 90 miles -of her compleinent oVrope, which will be sent round to await her return hole e from the experimental cruise. From the the time that the ve-sels leave PlYm eittk until they again sail on the laying expedition from Plythouth will be. about ten,cleysne a fortnight. To reach the centre of-the-Atlantic will-probably take the expedition a week, and should the weather be tine, twelve days more - will • be amply sufficient to complete the whole op: ration if laying. Thus, if the weather should continue fine, they: may- Itirly be expected at Valentia ab:mt the 25th of June or from that to the - beginning of July. This division of the time, however, is en— tirely contingent on fine we :they prevailing threughout the whole voyage, for should a gale of wind blow jest ab )ut the time they were going to make the splice, the ships would lay to, and wait till it had passed over. When the end of the cable, has been once sunk there will be no opportunity of laying to. SI - valid bad weather occur, it has been contemplated, in such a case, to cut the cable, buoy it up, and again resume operations when the weather moderates,: and for this.purpose cols of strung wire rope and large buoys have been sup plied to each vessel, though that the engineers will ever resort to the use of them, even in cases of emergency, is very tench to be doubted. The buoys are so constructed that they will hardly rise and Tall more than a few feet with the swell, so that should their use become .necessary, the motion of the waves will not tend to cut the cable through where it is fastened to the ring. Both the i Agamemnon and the Niagara have been strangely altered in their trim aspect since they have been pressed into the telegraphic service. Their spa cious 'tween-decks have been strangely cut about, and the ward-room and gun-room considerably cur tailed of their fair proportions in order to find adequate stowage room for the coils of the cable ; their upper spar decks are so crowded with ma chinery and the various apparatus to be used dur ing the eperations, that it is diffic u lt t o i mag i ne how the sailors will be able td move about to work the sails when the expedition is at sea. They both have so much dead-weight on board that they are down almost level with the sea. The Niagara with her coals, cable, provisione, and stores on. board, has little short Of 3,000 tons of dead weight in her hold: -Though-she is 5,000 tons American register, the weight brings the water up above her cabin floor and to within seven or eight feet of the upper deck. Iu fact, but for the great height of her bulwarks she would look almost level with the Water. The rumour is that she is far - too heavy to be in a fit condition to go to 'sea, but those who know how immensely _strong the ship really is, and how she is stayed both fore and :aft with massive tie rods of wrought iron, can well understand that it would indeed - be an extraordinary sea that could cause her to strain, or leak. The Agamemnon is also laden as deeply as she can possibly be, 3et her lower-deck ports are several feet from the water-line ; indeed, though the dead weight in her is not far short eef thet in the Niagara, yet her trim is not-so deep but that sle i might safely go to sea in any weather. The paying-out machinery, 'which-was only com pletely finished on WedueSday, was set in motion for several hours, to see whether everything worked ' auto Ili to its bearings. Nothing could hare be n more setisfactery than the . result of the t. ial ; and there is every reason to think, if the weather continues fine, that the w w i t e h ath s e u r e c a e tl Ss d . onthe , P , E v r i :e e sr i e l yn t tt h h : ia s ngt i' e s m 11)1 however, cwaisiel depends.wbee crowned know how uncertain the re ults are. The Atlantic is proverbially a stormy sea, and, though its surface is comparatively un rutfied during the summer months, yet there is a certain liability to a gale at any period o f th e year . Lieut. Maury, who li - is published the most accu- • ' rate and complete account of the winds and cur rents of the Atlatitic, has been - applied to by the Company . to.ascertain the period of the year most favourable for conducting the hying .operations. In reply, Lieut. Maury sent to the cowpauy a num ber of charts and tables showing the average amount of bad weather in every latitude of the North Atlantic, and in 'each mouth of the' year. From this it appears th .t in January, February, an I March almost continual storms prevail ; in April and May they are lose frequent; butiu the three ktunmer months of ,Tope, Suly, ,, eql August a Still 'June they are of less common oecurience. - , ~ " is not the most favourable of thothree accotrhain. to Lieut.

Tho Porcupine will accompany the Niagara throughout the whole of her route, and as she ap proaches the shallow and dangerous coast of New foundland, she will steam about and take sound ings, and keep a bright look-out for ice, of the proximity of which she is to give timely notice to time Niagara. Even should the Niagara, through stress of weather or in consequence of the ice, be obliged to abandon the cabal when near the shore, it could easily be picked up C gain, as all along the coast the sea is not more than 100 fathoms deep. Thus far everything looks imirosperous for' the undertaking, and should the results of the experi ment in deep water prove as satisfactory as it is anticipated they will, but little fears need be enter tained of the ultimate success of this, oneof,the greatest scientifie enterprises of modern times.
