CANADA RAILWAY AND LAND COMPANY. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Before Baron Bramwell and a Special Jury.) BEATSON V. SKENE- LIBEL. This case was still proceeding when we went to press.] SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr and a Jury.) 'SINGULAR CASE OF BUSTER AND SERVANT-LANG V. JACOBSON. This was an action brought by plaintiff, a domestic ser vant, against defendant, formerly her master, to recover £l4 12s. 3d., being wages, wages in lieu of notice, and money expended for defendant. Mr. Charnoek, for plaintiff, stated that his client was a native of Germany, and the most singular feature in the case would be in reference to the book containing the ac count of the money said to have been expended for de. fendant. Now plaintiff could not bring forward that book, and would swear that it had been handed to defendant. Notice had been given to defendant's attorney to produce it, but that gentleman had retaliated by calling upon plain tiff to produce it. She had not it, and the jury would hear her evidence on the point. Johanna Lang said she entered the defendant's service two years ago, at a salary of £lO a year. Defendant was a widower, and upon the menial() of one of his daughters plaintiff was raised to the post of housekeeper, at a salary of £l2 a-year. After the marriage of the daughter defen dant himself took a wife. In December there was a sale at the house, and then defendant owed plaintiff about £8 for eight months' wages. There was also between £5 and £6 in the book. On the morning of the sale plaintiff asked defendant to settle up, but ho refused, and said plaintiff had robbed him of many a shilling. lie also blamed her for the lass of some wine. Cross-examined by Mr. li. James —Defendant did not pay up the wages and settle the book the first Monday in each month. lie kept the book. Did not ask for the wages because she did not require them. When pressed frequently to settle up the book defendant said he was too busy. Re-examined—On the marriage of the daughter received gratuities amounting to £8 from the daughter and guests. This accounted for her having money to lay out. Two other witnesses deposed to having seen the book. Joseph Lloyd said he was employed on the day of the sale to do up the furniture. Saw plaintiff go into de fendant's room. She came out crying, and defendant fol lowed her out. Witness saw defendant put the book into his coat pocket. Witness listened to the high words be• tween plaintiff and defendant, lie blew her up dread fully. Cross-examined—Listened because he thought it was too bad to treat the poor girl in such a manner. As to the wine, it was a pity it was not all stolen. It was muck. (Laughter.) Mr. Jamos—Did you taste it? Wilnoss (with a wry face)—Yes. I was asked by Lord Aberdeen's butler to buy some. Didn't buy any. If I had Lord Aberdeen's butler would have horsewhipped me. (Roars of laughter.) Mr. James—NV hy ? Witness—lt was so bad. (Laughter.) Mr. James—Very bad. Witness—Awful. (Laughter.) - Mr. James—lndeed. Witness (oxpressively)—Fearful I (Roars of laughtor.) Mr. James congratulated the jury upon not having to try the wino now. As to the ease, 265. had been paid into court. Defendant was called and said he bad not got the book. He owed plaintiff no more than £1 Gs. In cross-examina tion ho admitted that he had burnt some papers. The learned Judge pointed out that it was a question for the jury, and they would say to whom they gave credence. As to the book, they would recollect the evidence of Lloyd. The jury found for tha plaintiff for £l3 Gs. 3d. more than .he sum paid into court. POLICE INTELLIGENCE --(THIS 1)A Y. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. Shop ROBBERY EY A CONFIRMED THlEF.—Susan CO] a young woman, was charged with stealing a pair of trowsors from the shop of Mr. Benjamin, clothier, of 34, Dudley-street, it transpiring in the case that it was not the prisoner's first visit to the prosecutor'S shop with a similar result. Mr. Benjamin said the trousers were hanging outside his shop at four the previous afternoon, when he saw the pri soner seize hold of them and walk off. He pursued and stopped her, and gave her in charge. • Groves, 83 F, said while at the station-house a duplicate fell from the prisoner's hand, which related to a pair of trowsers stolen from the prosecutor's shop on the previous day. The trowsers, which were pledged at Mr. Lurtnere's, St. Martin's-lane, had been identified by the prosecutor. Whitehouse, 113 F, said the prisoner had been charged at Bow•street with stealing a pin, and sentenced to two months, and at that time there were other cases against her. She had then some duplicates in her possession misting to property stolen from her lodgings. Mr. Bingham committed the prisoner for trial, and said the trousers must bo given up to the prosecutor by the pawnbroker. STEALING WORKHOUSE C LOTIIING.—Harriett Holden, an inmate of St. J ames's Workhouse, was charged with stealing several articles of workhouse clothing, the property of the guardians and directors of the poor of St. James's. The prisoner had gone out for a holiday, and returned minus some articles of clothing. Mr. Bingham said the ratepayers, many of whom prac tised great self denial to pay their rates, must be protected, and committed the prisoner for 21 days. JUDGMENT -CONYBEARE V. THE NEW BRUNSWICK AND . _ _ The plaintiff filed his bill to set aside the purchase of 200 preferential shares in this company on the ground of misre presentation. Ho alleged—let. That he was induced to believe that the land was presently available for commercial purposes, whereas the right to the land was contingent on making the railway. And 2d. That it had been repre sented that dividends would be presently paid to the share holders, but no dividends had been paid. His Honour considered that the plaintiff had failed to prove his allegations, and dismissed the bill without costs. ROLLS' COURT. (Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Rollinly.) J UDGMENT -CORPORATION OP SONS OF CLERGY V. SUTTON, His Honour postponed delivering judgment in this suit till Monday morning at 10 o'clock. THAMES. ROBBERIES BY A PAWNBROKER'S Boy. Thomas Henry Pickford, a boy about 13 years of ago, and lately in the employ of I'lessrs. Bmwn and Hollington, pawnbrokers in Catherine-street, Lintel:muse-field s , was brought up on remand, before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a silver watch, an Odd Fellows' silver medal, a gold chain, a silver chain, and other property. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. John'Brown, one of theprosecutors, that prisoner had been employed in the ware house and slept in the shop, where watches, jewellery, and Jther valuable property was deposited. On the 27th of last month the boy was discharged because he had absented himself without leave for. two days and nights. Oa the 20th of the same month a gold Albert chain, pawned three days previously, was applied for, and could not be found. The pawnbrokers had to make good the loss to the owner of the chain. A few days afterwards a silver guard (pawned for 35.), a guard chain (pawned for 45.), and a silver medal (also a pledge) were missing. A silver watch pakvned in February last was missed subse - quent to the boy's discharge. All the property was traced to the prisoner. He gave the silver medal, in the shape of a star, and belonging to an Odd Fellows' lodge, to a girl limner] Jane Darby, of 8, Hay-place, Victoria-road, Hack ,ney, by whom it was restored to the prosecutors. Ono of the silver chains was sold by the prisoner to another boy for 2a. about three weeks before Christmas. At the same time the prisoner produced a gold Albert:chain and a silver watch similar to those lost by his employers, and said ho had bought them. A boy named Walden had also seen the prisoner in possession of a silver watch, gold chain and other valuables, which he could not have obtained honestly, as he was not in the receipt of any wages, and was to give his services in the warehouse, fur his board and lodgings only, the first twelvemonths. On being taken into custody by Police-sergeant Wood, 16 K, ho said he had lost his watch,'and had purchased it from a Mr. Roberts, a watchmaker in Cambridge-road, Bethnal-green. Wood asked the prisoner what ho had done with the gold and silver chains, and he said he knew nothing about them. Mr. Roberts was called to prove ho had since sold a w itch to the prisoner. A silver medal and a silver chain were traced to the prisoner, and produced and identified by Mr. Broom n. The firm to which ho be longed had been put to torious inconvenience by the rob beries, and would have to compensate the owner of the watch and the owners cf all other pledges which could not bo found. Mr. Selfe committed the prisoner for trial. --- NEWSPAPERS FOR TUSCANY.—In order to insure the transmission of newspapers fur Tuscany by the quickest route—that is, via Sardinia—they must be payed on being posted in this country, according to the following scale :—;- .For a packet not exceeding four ounces, 4d. ; above four ounces, and not exceeding half a pound, Bd. ; with an addi tional charge of Bd. for every halt pound. If the above rates arc paid the newspapers are not only forwarded by the quickest route, but they are exempt from further charge of any kind on delivery. Newspapers for Tuscany are, however, frequently posted without sufficient postage hay ing been paid upon them for transmission by this route; for example, with a payment of ld. only for a packet of four ounces ; and in such case they can be sent only in the mail to France for conveyance thence to Leghorn by the French packet which leaves Marseilles once a week. Such news papers are consequently often much longer in reaching their destination ; besides which, the postage paid being merely the French transit rate, they are subject to an additional charge on delivery. As complaint has lately been made of delay in the transmission of newspapers to Tuscany, it is thought necessai y to call the attention of the public to the above circumstances.—fly command of the .

We have received the Constantinople journals and letters of the 4th brought by the Carmel. All the news will be found summed up in the following letter :—" The reply of the Sublime Porte to the French Ambassador on the subject of the Suez Canal has just been delivered. It bears the signa ture of Fuad Pacha, and declares in explicit terms that the Porte has no objection to the undertaking, and should have long since authorised its execu tion, had the question remained merely a commer cial one, but that as it has LOW become a political event, the Porte considers it but just that the Powers should first come to an understanding, and that Turkey should have every guarantee for the security of her iutcrests. Reports of further minis terial modifications are in circulation. Among other things, it is said that the ex-Grand Vizir is to again come into power by replacing Riza Pacha as Minister of War and Grand Master of the Artil lery. Those two personages had a long audience of the Sultan, but nothing certain is yet known of the result. The general opinion entertained ;s that the present Ministry cannot long hold toge ther and that Mehemet Kubrisli Pacha will very shortly be at the head of the two departments of war and marine, two branches of the administra , tion in which economical reforms arc the most im periously called for." THE HISTORY OF A SAD LIFE (From the New York Journal.) Would your readers care to know the history of a sad life, which has just ended in Boston, but which was begun in the retirement of a town in the interior of New: ? It is not often that more melancholy details are presented to the public. One of those numerous individuals who live by their wits, and fall back upon a singing school as a last resort, visited on o o f th e t own in Connecticut a few years ago, and early installed himself into the good graces of one of the most influential and respected citizens—a deacon, in fact, in the village church. Slander—for oneetruthful—followed the teacher to his retirement, and told stories which came near ex pelling him from the retreat which he had selected; but the good deacon remained his firm friend, en abling him to meet the individuals who had scat tered the alleged libels against him in so bold a manner as to force the suppos'd slanderer to come to a settlement in a court of law. Victorious here he remained through the season. Soon after he left the town, however, a daughter of the deacon very strangely insisted on going away from home to care for herself. Htr parents opposed the step, but she managed to elude their vigilance, and was not heard of for years. Upon the death of her father, who was in comfortable circumstances, she emerged from her retirement, claimed the part of the pro perty which was her due, and, upon receiving it, again left the village, taking every care to conceal all evidence of her whereabouts. Months passed on, and a week or two since her friends received information that the lost one had died in Boston, and that her remains were awaiting their dis• posal. They went for them, and, in the ill-furnished room which had been her home, found scraps of paper which revealed to them the life she had led during her long absence from home. The teacher of the singing school, while enjoying the hospita lity and receiving the hearty support of the father, had effected the ruin of his daughter. Conscious of her situation, and determined as far as possible to shield the family from disgrace, she left home and went to Boston, where her seducer supported her in beggarly style as his mistress, making her rooms his home whenever he visited the city. Just as his affections were beginning to cool the father died, and the scoundrel induced his victim to claim her portion of the estate, promising, if she would do so, to marry her. Hopeful of some better fate than that to which she had before been consigned, she complied with his demands, but after getting the larger part of her money under his control, ho treated her as neglectfully as ever. A little girl, now four years old, the pl e d ge o f th e i r illicit love, and the only cm solat ion which she had in her mis fortunes, tended her mother in her last illness. Faithful to the last, the ruined woman destroyed, as she thought, all the letters which had passed between her and the destroyer of her happiness, together with every scrap which could reveal her identity. But an album and some stray pieces of letters were found in her apartment, which told those who took charge of her remains where her revelations could be found. Further search also revealed unmutilated letters which left no doubt as to the individual who had been her paramour. To add to his crime, it was found that he had a wife and children elsewhere in Massachusetts. The statements of the affair in the newspapers gave him such confidence that all evidence of his guilt had been destroyed that, when he heard of the legal steps which the injured family were about to take a7ainst him, he immediately delivered liimseli up to the authorities of Springfield (Massachusetts). the city where lie had his residence. He was com mitted to gaol, and just before he was transfer red to Boston, where he was to meet his trial, his own relations and many of the people of the town which had been the scene of his scandalous exploits visited him in his confinement. With them was the little daughter of the woman he had ruined. When she saw the man she had been taught to look on as her father brought from his cell, she ran to him, crying, "Papa, papa." The daughter of the scoundrel's legal wife, a young lady grown up and married, besought him to acknowledge the child if she was his, but this he refused to do, reciting a story to which the greeting lie received from the little girl gave the lie most emphatically. On Sa turday he was committed to prison in Boston, in default of 1,500 dole. bail. The case has excited a wide-spread interest from the many sad features which characterise it. 2113 S DAYS MARKETS.

Some few years past, when there was no alliance, offensive or defensive, between this country and France, but when, on the contrary, the two empires very often drifted into exceedingly hostile relations, the army and navy of England were frequently at their lowest ebb. Now, however, that the two court tries are bound together in ties of strict amity and peace, the whole country bristles with warlike pre parations. Each pant of the coast asserts its defence. lessness and claims additional batteries; colossa' three-deckers are launched each month ; and not town or county but has its corps of volunteers. Tse note of preparation seems even to have penetrated that loneliest and dreariest of islets—:he Isle of Dogs, where building yards, hitherto sacred to the Wrest Indiamen or opium clippers, are cumbered with the fragments of little gun bo tts, or entirely occupied by steam rams, with their monstrous iron sides and hooked beaks—the rhinoceri of the deep. When the contract far the first of these tremen dous engines of warfare was accepted, eine months back, by the Thames Iron Ship Building. Company, we gave our readers the chief features of the in tended structure. Since that time the work of building the monster at Blackwali has progressed considerably. Since that time other contracts for vessels of an almost similar kind Lave been issued and taken up; anl. above all, since that time the opinions of the Admiralty on iron-cased ships of war in general would appear to have undergone some considerable modification. The vessel now building at Blackwell, and of the progress made with which we propose now to inform our readers, was origi nally intended for an iron-cased steam ram; that is to say, a vessel built as nearly shot proof as possible, and not only intended to engage, but especially to run into and sink others. From this design, how ever, she has been altered, and is now to be built merely as a shot proof heavy armed frigate of per haps 36, or perhaps 70 guns, as the Admiralty may eventually decide. She is to be named the Warrior, and will be at once fire and shot proof--the largest, strongest, and swiftest man-of-war afloat in the world. But, as we have already said, since the draw ings for this n oble ship were made the Admiraltyhave, in their more recent plans for genuine steam rams, accepted much which they had formerly condemned, and, on the other hand, condemned a good deal of work on which they formerly insisted. Thus the two iron-cased vessels, or steam rains proper, which are now being built—one on the Tyne by Palmer, and the other by Westwood and Bailey at Mill wall —are, though both shot proof, smaller in ton nage and armament, and nearly 100 feet shorter, than this gigantic frigate, the Warrior, which is being constructed,at the Thames Shipping Com pany's yard. Though great progress has been made with the Warrior, the more s t r iki ng parts of the hull, s uc h as the beak and stern, have yet to be built up. Now one only sees dimly through the forest of timber which supports the midship part of the ponderous hull, the really enormous solidity with which it is all put together. A perfect network of T shaped iron beams cross and recross one another in every direction. The wrought-iron " box gir ders" which run throughout the vessel from stem to stern are the most powerful things of their kind that have ever yet been made; yet all these beams and girders, angle irons, and tie-rods, of which the whole hull is apparently built, are mere trifles to the things which have yet to be put into her. A whole mountain of teak, which half fills one part of the yard, has to be consumed in her outer " lin ing," while her arm our pl a t es li e a b out i n ponderous slabs, weighing many tons, each from 16 to 18 feet long, 4 feet wide s and 4 inches thick. The nose, or cutwater of the vessel is one immense slab of wrought iron, about 30 feet long, 10 inches thick, and weighing upwards of 17 tons. The screw frame is one piece of the finest forged iron, without the slightest flaw of any kind, and weighing no less than 44 tons. Till the present work was commenced such masses of forgings were never thought of, even in the construction of the Great Eastern itself. Such an interval has elapsed since we last noticed the plan on which this iron Warrior is to be built that a brief recapitulation of her chief dimensions, together with the general principle of construction, may not be without interest to onr readers, more especially as it will serve to make clear our descrip tion of the progress that has already been made. Her dimensions, then, are :--Extreme length, 380 feet; ditto breadth, 58 feet; depth, 41 feet 6 inches; and her tonnage no less than 6,177 tons. The engines (screw, of course) are to be by P enn and Sons, of 1,250-h orse power, and of these we shall, on a future occasion, lay a separate and de tailed description before our readers. Their total weight, with boilers, will be 950 tons. For these she will, unfortunately, only be able to early 9.50 tons of coal, or enough for about six days' steam ing. The armament (counting her only as a 36-gun frigate), with masts and stores, will weigh 1,200 tons, and this, with the hull, which is to be no less than 5,700 tons, will give her a total weight, when ready for sea, of about 9,000 tons in all, or the weight of the Great Eastern when launched. IVith the fine lines and immense horse-power of the Warrior a speed of not much less than 15 or 16 knots an hour is anticipated, so that should her commander, in case of any emergency, choose to use her as a steam ram, he could literally drive his ship straight over a whole fleet of tlit(e-deckers without a chance of being injured by their broad sides in 'closing. That the Warrior will enjoy almost a perfect immunity from the heaviest shot and shell will easily be understood when we briefly point out the tremendous strength with which she is constructed. There is no external keel, but an inner kind of girder, which acts as a kelson. This is formed of immense slabs of wrought scrap iron an inch and a quarter thick, and three feet six inches deep. To it are bolted the ribs—massive wrought iron T-shaped beams an inch thick, and made in joints five feet long by two deep up to five feet below the water line, where their depth is diminished so as to form a deep ledge or angle, on which the armour plates and their teak lining rest. These immense ribs, except where the portholes intervene, are actually only 22 inches apart. Above the kelson i and inside the ribs, are the five box-girders we have already mentioned, which go the whole length of the ship, from stem to stern, and from which spring diagonal bands, tying every rib together. The orlop deck is of wood, and 24 feet above the keel; the main deck is of inn, and cased with wood, and nine feet above the orlop; the upper deck will also be of wrought iron; cased with wood, and seven feet nine inches above the main. All these decks are carried on wrought iron beams of the most powerful description, to which both decks and ribs and all are bolted as in one piece. The "skirt" of the ship, as it is termed, which covers all these ribs on the outside, is also of wrought iron, an inch and a quarter thick, under the bottom, to nearly one inch thick up to the spar deck. From five feet below the water line up to the upper deck comes, in addition to this, the great armour of teak and iron over all. This is formed of a double casing of the hardest teak,lB inches thick, with the beams laid at right angles to one another. Over these again come the plates of iron we have already men tioned, so as in all to case the broadside of the ves sol with 20 inches of solid , teak and five inches of the very finest wrought iron. This tremendous coat of armour, however, is of course not intended to cover the whole of the vessel. Indeed, with such an entire casing it could scarcely float at all. Only the broadside, or about 220 feet of the whole length, is so protected. The stem and stern have no armour plates, but are covered with iron plates 1 p inch thick, and lined with 24 inches of teak. To com pensate for the armour both the stein and stern aro crossed and recrossed in every direction with water tight compartments, so that it is almost a matter of perfect indifference to those on hoard t'ie Warrior in action whether they get riddled with shot or not. It is, of course, needless t o say th at t h o whole vessel is subdivided into some 20 places:by wrought iron watertight bulkheads of the most solid de scription. Those which cut off the stem and stern from the armour-coated portion of the ship are eased with teak and armour plates below the water line, exactly like the broadside of the vessel. Thus supposing it possible: that both, stem and stern could be shot away completely, the fighting portion of the vessel would remain as com plete and as impenetrable as ever, still opposing 20 inches of teak with 5 inches of wrought iron to every shot. The bows, as the spot where the whole force of the shock must be r ece i ve d i n case o f the vessel ever being'used to run down an enemy's ship of war, are strengthened inside with a perfect web of ironwork. No less that eight wrought-iron to decks, an inch thick, stretch back from this part the armour plates, as well as supports ( an i design sent in diagonal bracings innumerable. In the firs i t . to the Admiralty by the Thames S tipb e u s ild_in t g Com pany the shape proposed for the . bows of he, ves sel was exactly after the outline of the swan's neck and thus the 13171111 neck and breast when swimming, Point or beak intended to strike an enemy's ve sse l was the "breast" which was placed under the water line in the ship's bows. In the Admiralty model, and of course that on which the Warrior is built, the bows form an obtuse angle, the point of which is just level with the water and called the "nose." This peculiar shape, however, it is in tended to conceal under the usual cutwater, though the Admiralty have very wi se l y abandoned the idea which they at first entertained of concealing the true character of the vessel by such a stale de vice. In the "rams" proper which have since been ordered at Millwall and Newcastle the form of the swan's breast is adopted, but both these vessels aro, unlike the Warrior, more especially designed for running down vessels than for fighting them: Through the entire length of the Warrior run two longitudinal bulkheads between the sides and the inner portion of the vessel, which are termed wings, and serve as a means of communication. Inside these wings are placed the coals, while the chief magazines are further secured again by hav ing the wa'er tanks inside these bunkers. Since the vessel was commenced, also, the Admiralty have ordered the hull to be still more strengthened by • the addition of three broad girders passing beneath the armour plates on both kicks from stem to stern. The whole of Cat! framework ofthe armour -coated portion of the ship is now erected, and the stem and stern are in rapid course of construction. The number of guns to be carried on the main deck is 11' to be - 36, of which 30 ere under the armour coating, and the rest fore and aft. It is not yet partitively decided, though sle believe there is little doubt that there will be either 30 or Z.!6 broadside guns on the upper or spar deck as well, waking her a 60 or a 70-gun •frigate. Ail these pieces of otelnance are to be Armstrong!s longest range guns, and throwing shot of 100Ib. weight. In tl•e course of• two or three Weeks more the framework of both stem and stern will be up and bolted together, and by that time the iibs of the midship section s‘ ill 1 . . e covered - with their• iron skin, and the double plinking of teak commenced. As a matter of COUL3P, the armour plates will not be bolted into their places until after the Warrior is launched, when this part of her equipment will most likely be completed in the 'Victoria Docks. All the plates Ore dovetailed at the edges into one another, and fitstened through the teak andiron into the inner ribs of the ship with bolts, which are countersunk outside so as to have their heads level with the surface of the plate. The total weight of the plates required for the vessel is 1,000 tome. These monstrous slabs of armour are formed of scrap-iron with a certain proportion of puddled bar iron, which makes a mixture of almost unyielding toughness. Sonic) of them taken to Portsmouth have been subjected to the most severe tests in order to ascertain their capacity for resisting shot and shell, and the remnants of these plates are now at the works at Blaokwall. They were fired at by 6 8-pounders at a point-blank range of 200 yards. The massive shot even at this short distance have failed topenetrate the iron, though they have dinted it to the depth of 11 or in some cases: inches. •Six of the shcts struck within a circle of almost less than 2 feet diameter. Each after the second shot (which, of course, more or less broke the fibre of the iron) tore a narrow circular fissure or crack outside the mark of the diameter of the shot dint, until at the sixth shot in almost the same place the plate was broken and torn apart. What the effect of such a bat tery would be if the plates were backed up with the double beams of teak it is difficult to say, but it shows that the mere slabs of iron alone would be quite insufficient to resist a concentrated broad side of 68-pounders at close range. At the same time it must be borne in mind—first, that six such heavy shots are never likely to strike all in the same spot ; and, secondly, that the Warrior will herself be armed with the heaviest guns in the world, which have sufficient range to enable her to commence her action with an enemy at least four mites distant. At two miles she herself will be to the enemy out of range for all practical purposes, even for the heaviest smooth-bore guns used in any navy ,and at 1,000 yards distance a6B-pounder shot scarcely dints her iron sides to the depth of half an inch. In fact, every possible contingency seems to have been pro vided against for her security, except the probabi lity of her rolling in such a manner as to be inca pable of using hc•r guns in anything of a seaway. Everything seems to presage that she will unques tionably be a tremendous roller, unlees the AdMi ralty adopt some such precaution in the way of double bilge boards outside as are used by the north country pilot-boats. With these she 'may be ren dered stiff enough ; without them, especially now that the Admiralty have determined in placing her engines rather high in her, the weight of her top hamper may be so great as almost to endanger her safety in a heavy sea. CIVIL , SEP,VICE, VOLUNTEER CORPS. CUSTOMS' DEPARTMENT. has been already recorded that the Lords of the Treasury had permitted the gentlemen serving in the several departments under the Crown to form themselves, like the rest of the country, into rifle corps. Since which time two of our most remark able- buildings (Westminster Hall and. the Long Room of the Custom House) have been filled every evening with numerous bodieS undergoing the pro cess of drilling. Last evening the effective mem bers of the Customs' corps held a meeting for the purpose of electing their officers. Mr. HAMEL, solicitor, who presided, took occa sion to refer, in an eloquent speech, to the move ment, which had now become so general through out the length and breadth of the land, congratu lating the members on the zeal with which they catered into the discipline necessary to attain a knowledge of the duties appertaining to military training, also on the unanimity and loyalty which led to the format ion of the corps. He added, that their meating that evening was convened for the purpose of erecting officers for the corps; and the number they were at present entitled to were three captains, three lieutenants, and three en s i gns , the election of w h om the Lord-Lieutenant delegated to the members themselves. Gentlemen who were willing to serve in these capacities would be nominated, and it would be for each member to vote for them according to his own pleasure and opinion. He concluded by calling on Mr. OGILVIE, who proposed for election, as cap tains, Mr. Commissioner Gray, Mr. Hamel, and Mr. Wybrow (collector), all of whom being duly seconded, were carried with acclamation. Mr. HAMEL returned his grateful thanks, as much for the flattering reception they had given to his name, as for the honour they had conferred on him. He stated that, running throughout his veins was some of the best blood of France, being the son of a native of that country who, for his constancy and loyalty,was expatriated during the Reign of Terror. He assured the meeting, notwithstanding th a t h e had so much Gallic blo o d in him, the invaders of these shores would find him a determined opponent, be their country or clime what it may. Mr.WYBRow also expressed his deep sense of the high and honourable position their votes had placed him in, the duties of which he would endeavour to his utmost to discharge to their satisfaction. Mr. HENRY CAuLTEri, principal searcher, pro posed, for their lieutenants, Mr. Ogilvie, Mr. Dobell, and Mr. Charles Bernard, which found nu merous seconders, who were also unanimously elected amid much applause. Mr. OGILVII rose to thank his comrades for the enthusiastic greeting with which they were pleased to receive his name, and assured them that he valued that compliment as the highest that could be accorded him. Ile would not detain them in re capitulating sentiments that had already been de• livered with so much eloquence by their friend Mr. Hamel, but he could not help recurring to the re marks passed by the natives of oth er countries who had visited Britain on the occasion of the Great Exhibition, which was to the effect " that the British people were so orderly that they appeared to be their own poliA.," and he thought he could now with equal truth add to that trite expression, that they would be found likewise their own army. Mr. PHILLIPS, landing surveyor, came forward to submit for Alicir acceptance as ensigns, Mr. Charles Tindal Pickford, Mr. John 'Alley; and Mr. Jones. eablu be section llope "Mr. HALE would wish to add th e na me of Mr. Henry Mac Lean, and said, altho ug h h e was aware that three could only, according •to their present strength, be elected, yet as a consid wished for that gentleman's appointment, i they would allow each party to have the advantage of selection. • Another gentleman proposed the addition of Mr. Cobham. All of which propositions having been duly seconded, a poll was demanded by the friends of each of the candidates, the result being the elec tion of Mes. rs.

He trusted therefore that the lowest number and M r . Lilley would be re -polled, a suggesti on w hi c h was eagerly pressed, but the Chairman was inexorable, and announced the names with the highest num bers to be elected as stated above. Mr. P ICKFORD and his brother . officers severally thanked th e i r fr i ends for their election. Mr. AuousTus COPE moved, and Mr. COBHAM seconded, a vote of thanks to Mr. Ifamel for his urbanity and ability in the chair, which was accordingly carrit d. Mr. NORTH could not permit them to separate, without acknowledging their obligations to the un wearied exertions of their honorary secretary, M.r. Lilley, in bringing them together, and he thought he could assure his being returned with acchuna tion to fill the first vacant commission. Mr OGILVIE k e3onth d the vote with unquali fled sincerity, adding his testimony to the great interest Mr. Lilley took in th e f ormat i on o f t h e corps, and his assiduity in labouring as much as possible for its perfection. ,The motion was received with tremendous cheering, after which, and the thpee cheers being g i ven f or th e Q ueen, the meet' rig broke up.
