By F. B. COLTRTENAY, M.R.C.S.E., And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Ipfirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is the production of a. surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay lies given supply ample evidence of his great discrirainative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of - pain - to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief p r evented. The work we ca n most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are ftubject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

The fearful dangers to invalids from spurious imitations of DU BARRY'S invaluable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA LENTA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and, upon application in 1851 for. protection, the High Court of Chancery granted an injunction restraining Alfred Hooper Nevin, and hie agents, under a penalty of .£5,000, from sellinc , say article resembling or being a colourable Imitation of DU Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of which we are the sole pro prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infer matima of any breach of the injunction.

The accounts from all quarters tend to show the extensive destruction to property occasioned by the gale of 'Wednesday, and, unfortunately, the loss of two more lives, and injury to many persons. The vessels in the Pool have received extensive damage, and several of the crews have been much injured. The vessels in the tier in the Pool were consider ably damaged, a large number being forced from their moorings. and driven on shore. Upwards of GO vessels suffered in their rigging, the topmasts being shivered and blown away like reeds; The shore on both sides of the river below the Tower presented a singular aspect; pieces of cordage, , sails, rigging, and wood being scattered about, as though wrecks had taken place. Many of the fish ing vessels moored off Billingsgate were stove in and considerably injured. While the gale was at its height the body of a man, apparently from the dress that of a seaman, was washed ashore at Erith. Two - vessels, named respectively. the Joan of Arc. and Royal Albioni were driven from their moorings off Erith and came into violent collision, the head of the latter being stove in, so that she eventually filled and went down. Two of the crew are supposed to be drowned. An old man named James Fortes cue was in the act of grossing - Bermondsey-street when a stack of chimneys, blown from the roof of a house, fell upon him and. knocked him down, crush ing in his skull. On raising the poor old man it was found that he was perfectly insensible, so that it was deemed advisable to convey him to Guy's hospital, where it was discovered that he was dead. The outside walls of the premises in White's-ground, where the recent configration took place, were blown down with a loud crash, some portion of the frag nients on,anotheionseferthihing.the .roof, and doing Much damage. A man ; who is at present unknown, was killed at Richmond. He was passing along the road, -when a large tree was blown down 'with a terrific crash and fell upon the unfortunate man crushing him so frightfully that when discovered he was found to be dead. The roofs of several houses at Mortlake were torn off, and at one place a child, named Edward Hohnes, aged 5 years, was so se verely injured by the fragments falling through the roof into the room where he was in bed that great doubts are entertained of his recovery The dead body of a woman was yesterday discovered near Richmond, on the shore, and it - is believed that she was.blown into the_ river and drowned. The high wind and storm* on Wednesday caused extraordinary damage in the suburbs of the metro polis, more especially in the more elevated districts of the northern side. In the vicinity of Hamp stead, Highgate, St. John's-wood, and. Holloway chimneys were blown down, glass houses were completely shattered, and young trees torn up by the roots; , and at the residence of Mr. J. M. Pem berton, St. Andrew's Villa, in the Finchley-road, large stack of chimneys and a part of the roof were carried away, and a portion of the brickwork and fragments, having fallen on the roof, fell through into some of the upper bedrooms, seriously injuring some of the domestics, who were in bed at the time. The most extraordinary occurrence, how ever, reported is that which took place on the Great Northern Railway. Not only was the wind so high that the firemen and engine-drivers of the goods trains were compelled, in order to ensure their personal safety, to tic themselves to portions of their engines, but on the arrival of some of the covered goods carriages at the goods-department terminus, King's-cross, it was discovered that the roofs had been completely blown off, and a con siderable amount of other damage sustained. of shapes. About 1,500 deals are stated to have been washed away, which had been stowed on the pier. Fortunately the wind shifted to or the damage must - have been much more serious. The sea walls on the water' frontage of the estates of Mi. G. Young and Mr. Le Merchant Thomas have received serious damage from the gale, as also that of Captain Gardiner, all within a short distance of Ryde, and from their position peculiarly liable to suffer from a south-easter. At Priory Point, too, great damage has been inflicted. by the violence of the gale, and the high tide oh the earth at the base of the woods belonging to the estate. trig, in the very heart of her fortresses, would com pletely set Italy free, F.lie was again surprised by the news that an armistice had been concluded, and that the two Emperors were to meet at Villa franca. Her astonishment was redoubled when she learnt for the first time that Austria kept not only Verona and Legnago, but Peschiera and Mantua, belonging to limu'hardy, which thus lost her strategic importance ; next, that the Emperor Francis Joseph had formally demanded the re establishment of the archdukes, and that the Emperor of the French had consented to reserve their 'rights. The war was made " against the will of Europe," in the MUM of the most im portant interests ; bloody and glorious battles had been fought, and 100,000 men had perished; the people whose destinies were at stake, called to arms and invited to self-organisation, had responded to the appeal, and victory, this time at least, had crowned the right. Friends and enemies of Italy, partisans and opponents of the war, expected results proportioned to the greatness of the efforts, to the extent of the sacrifices, and to the reasonableness of lie hopes. The disappointment caused by the pre :minaries of Villafranca was immense ; and since it has been known that the treaty of Zurich is no thing else than these preliminaries formally drawn up and reduced to articles, astonishment has as sumed, especially in the English press, a peculiarly vivacious character. It has been found that the ob ject of the war has not been attained. And when the Moniteur announced that Austria attached to her concessibns, as a condition sine qua non, the return of the archdukes to their states, people have feared to see her insensibly regaining in Italy that domina tion which was officially proclaimed six months ago incompatible with the interest of France and the repose of Europe, and which caused it to be said in the programme of the first day that it was neces sary either to let her rule as far as the Alps or to drive her beyond the Adriatic. They have seen the Italians in arms on the right bank of the Po, Aus tria on the left bank, and war as the end of this violent antagonism. In this situation the Italian question has appeared more complicated than ever, nearly incapable of solution ; and it is asked by what means Italy - can escape the fresh disorders and misfortunes that threaten her. The English press has declared that Europe was not condemned, like the humble Parlia ments of former times, toyegister in silence the im- perial edicts, and that she had something better to do than to ratify purely and simply the preliminaries of Villafranca and the treaty of Zurich. Knowing this treaty only from two incomplete and in certain points contradictory versions, we shall wait for the Moniteur to publish the official version of it, before we judge it. But whatever be the text, it is evi dent that the arrangements of the two sovereigns cannot content either Italy or Europe, or those sovereigns themselves, and that nothing will be serious and definite but what has received the sanc tity .on of public right, after a thorough and solemn discussion of the state of Italy and the will of the Italians. That is in the main what the English press says, and we do not comprehend how that can excite the bad humour and raise the bile of the officious press of Paris and the departments. "Do you believe," said the Emperor of the French, in his speech at St. Cloud," that it did not cost me ranch to retrench openly before Europe from my programme the ter ritory that extends from the Mincio to the Adria tic ? Do you believe that it did not cost me much to see noble illusions destroyed, patriotic hopes vanish in honest hearts ?" _ _ . The officious press ought to imitate closely this modesty and frankness, and not commit the absurd blunder of maintaining that the programme has been fulfilled, and that the Emperor of the French regrets having left it incomplete, and not to com plain of the ingratitude of the Italians, when he confesses that he has destroyed their illusions and caused their patriotic hopes to vanish. The Emperor of the French, after waging war " against the will of Europe," made peace against his own will, and solely, he said, " because the destinies of my country might have been imperilled." This is another reason for rigorously examining this im provised solution, for seeing whether it is conform able to equity, to the right of the Italians, to the situation of Austria, to the private interest of France and the general interest of Europe. To solve so complicated and important a question we require an imposing tribunal, alsolute master of its decisions, and this tribunal can only be Europe her self, represented by her diplomatists in a general and sovereign congress. FRANCE AND SPAIN. yen PRICE 4 1) . STAMI.M), herself with France as well as with any other Power. But as members of the European commu nity we arc bound to notice any conjunction which appears ominous of future disquiet. It may prove that the present joint action of these two States against Morocco is but part of the system which has already been inaugurated at Rome and Turin. To place the second-rate States of Europe under his control at one time by judicious assist ance, at another by sudden severity ; to keep them always waiting something or dreading something from 11;in ; to make, more especially, what are called the Lati n na ti ons th e s atellites of his throne, is an Imperial theory which has often been pro pounded, and now seems in process of accomplish• ment. The nearly despotic Government of Spain may he expected to have no oljection to such an union with France, and o n ly some ill-j u d ge d act of violence would-rouse the Spaniards into their old jealousy of French domination. There are thus two points in this question which deserie the attention of the public. One is the result to Morocco itself; the other is the effect on European policy of excessive French influence in Spain. On the first we have few misgi v i ngs . France has enough African territory on her hands, and Spain can with difficulty keep the few remain ing colonies which belong to the Crown. A year or so since France and Spain were united in the far East for a war on the Anamite Empire. French missionaries, it was said, had been ill-treated, and the Spanish of the Philippines had suffered griev ances from their neighbours. Great was the talk of what France, now entered on a new career, would do in Cochin China. An empire was to be esta blished which would counterbalance the possession of India by the English, and cut off, if necessary, the communication between Calcutta and Canton. A respectable force of French and Spaniards sailed for Cochin China, and the same game was played as is meditated on this side of the globe. Now, we are sure that if England had interfered in this Cochin Chinese business it would have been made a matter of the highest importance, and the whole strength of France would have been exerted to gain a footing in the country. Every newspaper in .Paris would have been full of the necessity of completing this great conquest, which nerfidious Albion had in vain endeavoured to pre `.: But, happily, no notice was taken, and accordingly all interest died out in the minds of Frenchmen. In vain were despatches published containing narratives of the Franco-Spanish ex ploits. Few people in France care about the Anamite Empire or its humiliation, and it is likely that the French, decimated by disease, will with draw altogether, or content themselves with the occupation of one or two points on the worthless coast. With Morocco it is likely to be the same. The country will be of no advantage to any Euro pean possessor, and subjugation is not likely to enter into the Imperial scheme. But the subjection of Spain to French infl uence , an d th e f orma ti on of a system in which France is the chief, and Spain, Piedmont, the Papal St a t es , an d Naples are the dependents, deserves the attention of every poli tician among us.—Timcs.

Yesterday another frigate was added'fik;:the )'d":4l fish Navy by the launch of the Narciss ,N9O gki from Plymouth dockyard. The hour skied foi launching was 4.15. The sides of the dockqkora a which the vessel was to be launched were - iittt©d with booths, to which admission was obtained by means of tickets issued by the authorities. At about a quarter to four o'clock Lady Ernestine Edgcumbe, accompanied by her party, took up a position on the platform directly under the bow of the vessel, where they were received by Sir Thomas S. Pasley, Mr. Peake. master ship wright, and other officials. Everything being in readiness, Lady Ernestine, who was to perform the ceremony of christening, awaited the proper mo ment, when, at the given signal, the bottle was dashed against the bow of the vessel, and broken, her ladyship at the same time prouncing the word " Narcissus." A few seconds intervened before the dog shores were knocked away, but even then there vs as no sign of her starting. The usual methods adopted to facilitate the start were called into requisition, meanwhile the spectators were held in suspense—but not long, for after a few blows from some dozen or two ponderous sledge hammers, wielded by burly shipwrights, all impe diment was cleared, and she glided off towards her future home like a thing endowed with life, amid the enthusiastic cheers of assembled thousands, and the strains of the Royal Dockyard band. Around .the slip jiumberless boats, crowded with spectators, literally covered the water, and, as she glided out, the cheers, which were led off by the master ship wright from inside; were re-echoed from the va rious ships, and taken up by those assembled on the opposite heights. Everything passed off well, and nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of the scene. The lines of the frigate are beautiful, and the fol lowing are the principal dimensions:— - • - Ft. In.

PEMBROKE, Oct. 26.—Another splendid addition has been made to the navy. The launch of the Im mortalite took place yesterday, at five o'clock in the afternoon, but as the weather was most tempestu ous the assemblage of spectators was unusually small. She is a 51-gun steam frigate. The follow ing are her principal dimensions, viz. :—Length between the perpendiculars 251 feet ; length of keel for tonnage, 216 feet 14 inch ; extreme breadth, 52 feet ; breadth for tonnage, 51 feet 7 inches ; ditto moulded, 59 f ee t 9 i nc h es; depth in hold, 16 feet; horse-power, 1,600; burden in tons, 3,058 75.94 ; launching draught, forward 14 feet 9 inches, aft 18 feet. She is to be jury rigged, avid taken to Portsmouth to be furnished with steam machinery, for which purpose there are now at Pembroke a number of seamen riggers from that port. A further series of experiments have been tried on board her Majesty's ship Odin, in order to test the merits of Dr. Normandy's "aerated fresh water apparatus," as compared with the distilling appa ratus of the late Sir Tassell Grant, K.C.8., and more especially to ascertain the results as regards the saving of fuel. Each was supplied with steam from the same boiler, in exactly equal quantities, and it was found that Sir T. Grant's apparatus yielded 113 gallons, while that of Dr. Normandy produced 200 gallons. The experiment was repeated with the same result, and we understand that Captain Lord John Hay was so pleased with Dr. Normandy's patent as to intimate his intention to apply for the erection of one on board his own ship, the Odin. The committee was composed of Captains Farquhar, Wilson, and Lord John Hay; Mr. Murdock, In spector of Machinery Afloat ; Mr. Price and Mr. Downie, officers in her Majesty's dockyard. The Beagle, 6, despatch vessel, Commander Hay, sailed from Spithead yesterday at 3 p.m. for the westward. Tho Ringdove, 6, despatch vessel, Commander Craigie, will go out of Portsmouth harbour this morning to try her screw with its leading corners cut off. _ The French paddle yacht Le Dauphin sailed from Portsmouth yesterday shortly after noon for Cherbourg. The officers of the Dauphin had pre viously visited the different points of interest in the dockyard, orders having been received from the Admiralty to that effect. The Flamer and Grasshopper gunboats have been moved from the steam-basin to Portsmouth harbour. They will be ready in a few days to proceed to their destination. Rear-Admiral Superintendent Grey embarked yesterday on board the Sprightly steamer, in Portsmouth harbour, and proceeded to Spithead to inspect the Arrogant and Mars. - The Odin, 16, paddle, Captain Lord John Hay, C. 8., proceeded to test her machinery, &c. ; but the trial was not definite on account of some alterations being still required in the ventilation of her stoke hole. The screw steam corvette Clio, 21, Captain 'Mil ler, left Plymouth on Tuesday for South America. The screw steam sloop Encounter, 14, Captain R. Dew, hauled off from the sheer hulk in Hamoaze on Tuesday, having shipped the guns from the Snap and the Bouncer. The paddlewheel steam-sloop Centaur, 3, Com mander Aplin, took on board her powder and shell at Plymouth on Tuesday. In consequence of the heavy gale on Tuesday, the screw steamship Royal Albert, 121, was not re moved from Hamoaze to Plymouth Sound. The screw steam frigate Mersey and another ship of war put back to Plymouth Sound on Tuesday night. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—W. J. Cunningham, second. - - - - -r • iaster, to the Sea - lark ; Charles Wotton, seem master, to the Royal Albert ; W. H. Bond and R. Barnett, midshipmen, to the Sphinx ; W. T. N. Barron, naval cadet, to the Odin ; Thomas W. Bower, promoted to first class assistant engineer, to the Bov.ncer ; Edward Parsons, promoted to acting first class assistant engineer, to the Satellite ; Edward Newman, promoted to acting first class assistant engineer, to the Pelarus; and James Hop kins, promoted to second glass assistant engineer, to the Bouncer. PLYMOUTH. On Tuesday a very heavy gale from the southward and eastward prevailed in this neighbourhood, and being accompanied in the evening by an extraordi nary. high tide, has caused considerable damage. The trawling sloops connected with the port were obliged to abandon their nets in the Channel and run into the Sound for, shelter, and some of the Irish steamvessels. were compelled to put back. • The turnpike road between Livermead and Tor quay, constructed in part on piles, was flooded and damaged to the extent of £2,000, and various turn pike roads near Newton, Kingsteignton, and Pow, derham, suffered in a similar way. Damage of a much more, serious character has, however, been done on the South Devon Rail way, which frequently skirts the T. sea between Newton and Exeter. In the river Teign, be tween the town . and the , bridge, a considerable length of the granite coping stone on the sea wall is displaced, and near East Teignmouth the sea wall has been washed down, and stones weighing nearly two tons thrownon the - lines. here there are two walls which have between them a public walk. Both walls have been thrown down, and scattered in all directions.. Fortunately the line is double here, and the inner line, called the east slip siding, remains intact. At- Langston° Point, between Dawlish and Starcross, , another breach occurs. Be tween• Turf and Powderham, after passing Star cross, the embankment is carried away from half to three-quarters of a mile in length, and the ballast ing is washed from under the sleepers, so that some time will be occupied in completing the necessary repairs. • The first train stopped was the one which leaves Exeter at 4.20 p.m. With considerable dif ficulty and danger it waded over the line, but was obliged to stop at DaWlish. The - telegraph wires are blown down in several. places. The traffic be tween Plymouth and Dawlish was to be resumed yesterday. CARDIFF. Eight bodies were washed ashore at Cardiff on the 26th, at 7 p.m. Several wrecks have passed in the channel, and three or four vessels are on shore. One unfinished house in Cardiff and one in Routh town are b!own down. SHIELDS, THURSDAY, NOON. The gale has entirely abated. The wind is N.N.W., mild, and a fine clear day. We have fortunately no shipping disasters to report on the'coast of Northumberland. But • the reports that are being received hourly by the ship insurance clubs of wrecks and losses that have occurred south of the Tyne are of the most painful character. Great anxiety Prevails for the safety of the laden colliers that were at sea during the gale. Those that have come ashore and are wrecked are pretty well ascertained, but those that were out at sea, and may have sprung a leak and sunk, or may have been run down, are the greatest cause of anxiety. The Welsh schooner Aneurin, from Carnarvon, was towed into the Tyne last night with her masts gone and the decks swept. On Tuesday night about ten o'clock during the gale the Syren, of Shields, was run down, off Whitby, by the Victoria, of Maldon. As the Syren was sinking the men endeavoured to get on board the Victoria, when unfortunately three of them were crushed between the vessels and. drowned, and the fourth, in leaping to the Victoria, fell into the sea and was drowned. Two vessels are ashore near Sunderland, but, for tunately, the crews were rescued, and, as the weather has moderated, hopes are entertained that they may be got off; and as the weather is mild the larger number of the vessels that ran ashore at Hartlepool and were stranded in the gale will be got off. It is reported here that a Hartlepool vessel, the Ben jamin Barnett, sunk at Bridlington, and all hands ,drowned, A considerable amount of damage has been done to the pier works and railway at the mouth of the Tyne by the storm. CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY. The line of rails at Bagilit, onithe above railway, was washed away by the sea on Wednesday morn ing. The telegraph posts have been blown down, and communication with Holyhead interrupted. The Great Eastern in the course of Tuesday eyen lug had her steam got up, in case of necessity, to run out to sea. Wrecks are reported on the coast in that neighbourhood, but the number cannot at present be ascertained. THE ENGLISH AND FRENCIIPRESS ON IRE TREATY OF The following article by M. A. Peyrat appears 11 La Presse:— On the 21st of June, 1807, seven days after the battle of Friedland, an armistice was concluded at Tilsit between the Russian and French armies, with a view , to negotiate a peace. On the 25th a first interview with the Emperors Alexander and Napoleon took place in a tent set up on a raft in the middle of: the Niemen. On the 11th of June, 1859, after the battle o Solferino, followed by an armistice, the Emperor° Austria and the Emperor of the French had an in terview at Villafranca, and fixed the basis of a preliminary treaty. At Villafranca, as at Tilsit,the Emperors were surrounded by a brilliant staff, com posed in part of the marshals of the two empires. History has informed us of what took place en the raft in the Niemen. "I do not like the Eng lish any better than you do," said Alexander to Na poleon, " and I ath ready to second youin any enter prise against them." " In that case," replied Napo leon, " everything will be easily arranged, and peace; is already made." Is it possible, by any chance, that something analogous was said at Villafranea ? We do not think so ; yet one might think so on seeing the attacks directed against England by certain journals of Paris and the de partments, with a significant simultaneity which has been much remarked in Europe. But who knows exactly what was said at Villa franca? The two Emperors, excluding on this oc casion diplomatists and soldiers alike, shut them selves up in a small room, withsut any witness than a bouquet of roses placed on a small table. After an interview of two hours they came out radiant : they had just given peace to Europe. What took place in that mysterious interview ? As neither bouquets nor tables speak, we must wait until it pleases the two interlocutors to inform the world ; and in the meantime confine ourselves to judging of the results. The results of the treaty of Tilsit were clear, well understood, and submitted to by Europe with trembling. There remained only a single state really and absolutely . independent—England. The other powers, vanquished and humbled, subscribed unreservedly to the wishes of Napoleon, whose power was not more formidable than the tempta tions and miscalculations of a policy always gigan tic, incoherent, and unaccomplished. Matters evidently took place otherwise at Villa franca. The Emperor Francis Joseph arrived there more thoroughly beaten and overthrown than the Emperor Alexander after Friedland. Austria had lost all she could lose. She had been dislodged from every position ; conquered in every battle. The prestige qi- her arms was destroyed, and her soldiers fought in retreat, even less demoralised by their repeated defeats t han b y the incapacity of their chiefs. Venice was threatened ; Peschiera invested; the taking of Mantua . or of Verona re garded as certain. In this position, to sign an ar mistice was to confess that Austria gave up the idea of measuring herself against the allied armies and of retrieving her irilitary honour. Joseph On the ll ad eveningii.rev irrevocably Solferino ahl y l os t the all h Emperor opeof F r e ra e n hs t c a i s . bushing his authority over Lombardy. 119 ad before him this alternative—either to submit for mallyta to the conqueror or to make np his mind ft himself to negotiate the peace, lie had calculated submitted,newb att l e a whicheve could ela only believeb o at that t w an un the necessary conditions. Even supposing i d n eea resigning . loie exampled moderation on the part of the conqueror, it was impossible that it should extend to'permit ting the vanquished to push his claims beyond what he still possessed. The Archdukes, placed between Austria and Italy, had taken sides with Austria, and like her they had been conquered at Solferino. It seems that it was as impossibleto re establish them on their thrones, which they had staked and lost, as to restore Lombardy to Austria. Three months before, Europe, reckoning on peace, had been surprised by war. After Solferino, when she had no doubt that a lost battle, fought by Aus- FALMOUTH. A gale of wind, almost unprecedented in its seve rity and in its sudden rise, occurred at Falmouth on Tuesday. The early morling and up to noon was comparatively moderate, but at 1 p.m. the wind increased rapidly from the eastward, with violent and unceasing rain and a tremendous rush of tide. It continued for an hour from this quarter, and then as insta ntaneousl y changed to N.N.E., the wind and rain bot'i as unabated as before, and did not decline _until 5 p.m., or a little after high water. The ship ping in the roads and harbour (about 110 sail) rode without accident, with the sole exception of the American barque Jane M. Thurston, Grant, master, in ballast, from London for Port Talbot, which vessel being anchored close to.,the bar point, and from her light draught of water exposed to the powerful action of the gusts of wind, drove on shore under Pendennis Castle, between the bar and middle point, at 3 30 p.m., where she lay until Wednesday morning's tide, when she was got off by the Dandy steam-tug, and towed into the inner harbour. The damage done to her bottom may not be considerable. The brig Lavinia, of Hull, Fall, master, from Taganrog, laden with linseed, which on arrival, before the gale commenced, had been put on the ground at the bar to stop a leak, was driven so high on the beach by the force of the wind at high water that she must be lightened to be got off. In the harbour of St. Mawes, the Swedish brig Oscar, Nelson, master, from Sundswall for Lisbon, timber laden, was driven on shore in St. Mawes Creek, but was got off at high water after the gale had subsided, and towed into Falmouth inner har bour on Wednesday. A coasting schooner (name unknown) was also beached on St. Anthony's side of St. Mawes Creek during the gale. MARGATE. On Tuesday night a violent gale'blew here from the S.E., and at about six o'clock on that evening, Mr. Boorman, chief.boatman at the Kingsgate sta tion, observed a blue light burning to seaward; supposing it at first to be a reflection from the castle windows, but having called one of the men, they soon discovered it to be on board a vessel standing into the bay, and which almost imme diately struck the ground. Men were despatched to Broadstairs and Margate for the lifeboats; the boat frem the first place was soon on the spot, and it is said, but we hope without foundation, that most of the men were at the time intoxicated and inca pable of rendering any effectual assistance, and at the same time threatened to thro‘v overboard the Coastguard men if they attempted to enter the life boat. The Margate lifeboat was three hours before it arrived at the scene of the disaster, in conse quence of one or more persons refusing the use of their horses to convey the boat overland to Kings gate, and it is said by persons competent to judge of such matters that, but for these circumstances, in all human probability the lives of the crew might have been saved ; but, as it is, all are now lost, not one being left to tell the fearful tale. One poor fellow was taken out of the rigging on the following morning quite dead. It should, however, be stated that the Margate boat visited the wreck as soon as possible, but could find no person on board; the name of the vessel is supposed to be the Abby, of Podle, the stern of a boat being washed ashore with this name on it, and an elderly man supposed to be one of the crew had also been picked up. About the same time as the above the Mary Ann, of Stockton, coal laden for Caen, struck on _the wreck of the Northern Bell and sunk, she was disco vered in the morning by the crew of the Queen lug ger, of Margate ; and the crew, after having been several hours in the rigging, rescued ar.d brought to Margate. Both wrecks took place within a very short distance of each other, and, had the Coastguard a boat at all available at this point, it is more than probable that the crew of the Abby might have been saved ; and it should be stated that, as it was, they more than once attempted to reach the wreck in their small skiff. Would it not be well, could a rocket apparatus be supplied to this dangerous part of the coast, as both wrecks are now lying within a short distance of the cliff ? PORTSMOUTH. The Owen Glendower (one of Messrs. Green's Blackwall fleet) put into St. Helen's Roads on Wed nesday evening, with loss of her foreyard. Capt. Dickenson reports that the gale in the Channel first showed itself from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. on Tues day, when it blowed fresh from the south. From 1 until 5 p.m. it freshened to a perfect gale, with violent puffs of wind veering to S.S.E., accompa nied by heavy rain. At 5 p.m., when the gale had reached its height, the ship lost her foreyard, from which a part of the crew had luckily but a short time before come down. The barometer at this time stood at 28.90. From this period the gale broke, but still blew hard during the night, veering round to S.W. and W., shifting suddenly from various points in the squalls. The Owen Glendower is from London, bound to Melbourne, calling at Plymouth for her passengers, and will sail as soon as she has her new foreyard on board. On the Isle of Wight numbers of large trees were blown down in different parts. At Ryde the new pier, now in course of erection, has sustained serious damage. The pier is formed of iron screw-piles, on which the roadway is laid, and was laid to some 1,000 feet. From the pier head nearest the town, to a distance of over 300 feet, the heavy roll on the shallow ground, caused by the south•easterly winds, has torn away the road way from the iron piles below, twisting and bend • log the piles with their iron braces into all manner 211 E NAVY. It is reported from Paris that, at the request of the Spanish Ambassador, the French Government has placed materials of war at the disposal of Spain, and that the Emperor has declared his intention of supporting the operations against Morocco by ad vances to the Government of Madrid similar to those made to Piedmont in the late war. Whether or not this news be literally true, there cannot be much doubt that France is preparing to intervene in the quarrel more actively than was originally expected. The commanders in Algeria have con centrated strong bodies of men on the frontier under pretence of checking the incursions of certain un ruly tribes, and it is quite possible that the French and Spanish forces may combine to carry out other plans than the obtaining redress for insults at Ceuta or the plundering of an African model farm. If we were disposed to feel cause of satisfaction in finding gloomy anticipations realised, we might remind our readers of the many times that we asserted the impossibility of a period of quiet following upon the Martial successes of the French army. Whe ther it be from the necessity of the Emperor's po sition, or the wants of his soldiery, or the tempta tions of absolute power, Europe is witnessing, and seems doomed for a long time to witness, a series of international troubles. Those who affect to believe that it is only the plain speaking of the English press which causes the general disquietude should ponder over the events of the past year, in which the English press has taken little or no part. The attack on Austria, the sudden peace and half desertion of the Italian cause, were matters in which we had no part ; and now we find France and Spain leagued against a Mediterranean State, with possi ble results which may be of a grave character. As it is only within the last few days that this question has been discussed in England, it cannot be said that any act of ours has provoked the present com plications. No one in this country has the smallest wish to save the Bill pirates from chastisement, to prevent a semi-barbarous Court from being taught respect for the rights of man and of nations, or even to forbid a harmless State like Spain from taking as much ground as will make her African possessions secure. Spain has considerable grievances against the Malio medans of Western Africa, and we arc only glad to see a country so long torn by intestine war and ex hausted by misgovernment thus asserting once more a position among military nations. That Spain has a good army, a fair navy, and officers fit to command both ; that the Government is strong enough to use its soldiers for other purposes than repressing factions at home; and that there is mosey enough in the treasury to carry a force across the Straits and into the untilled regions of Morocco, must be a matter of Congratulation to every one who remembers what Spain was, even in the memory of men now living. If Queen Isabella's army could learn in warfare with the Moors how to defend Cuba, and how to bid defiance to an enemy in the Pyrenees, no one would rejoice at it more than Englishmen. But the case is dif ferent when the Cabinet of Madrid undertakes operations under the direction and with the_ help of a great and ambitious Power. We cannot avoid perceiving that in these alliances the stronger State must have complete control over the weaker, and that it is not Spain which goes to war, but France, under the,shelter of her name, and, perhaps, with the intention of reaping the fruits of the war. We have before said that this country should avoid tho slightest meddling in this dispute, should it result only in the punishment of an obstinate Court, the taking of securities for the future, and such an addition to the Spanish territory as will make Ceuta secure. That more than this will be willingly undertaken by Spain is not to be believed. Nothing could make the Spanish Government attempt so absurd an enterprise as the conquest of Morocco, except the injudicious interference of this country. A British Minister making feeble remonstrances, which public opinion would not allow him to follow up by action, would be certain to put the continental nations on their mettle. They would do any thing to seem regardless and disdainful of English influence. If the Spaniards were alone in this affair, and were undisturbed by any foreign in terference, for or against them, we might be sure that three months would put an cud to the whole quarrel. It is the obligations under which Spain lays herself by accepting French assistance which constitute the chief evil of the present alliance. Against such an alliance, of course, we can say nothing diplomatically, Spain has a right to ally A notification was yesterday circulated in Wool wich Dockyard, by order of the Lords of the Admi ralty, announcing that a considerable augmentation of the departments would take place forthwith, and that numbers of the following workmen would be entered immediately—namely, shipwrights, saw yers, riggers, caulkers, engineers, factory men, labourers, &c. A bounty of 10s. will be given to any one introducing riggers, caulkers, &c. It was likewise announced that the pay of the first and second class riggers is to be augmented 9d. per day, commencing on the Ist of November next, and the pay of the leading men of the department 6d. per day ; that of the former being raised to 4s. and 3s. 6d., and the latter to ss. 6d.. per day. The following commendatory letter from the Se cretary of . the Admiralty was also received yester day at the Dockyard, 'Woolwich, in reference to the assumption of the sentry duties of the yard by the military in garrison, and the consequent with drawal of the metropolitan police from those duties. " Admiralty, Oct. 24. " A report has been received from 'Woolwich Dockyard, stating that the -Police, under the immediate superintend ence of Mr.. nallalieu, have performed the duties of the guard since the 4th of May last in a most satisfactory man ner, and that the conduct of the whole force has been ex emplary, their duties having been discharged very effectu ally. lam commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to state that they have received this report with great satisfaction, and I am to beg that it may be communicated to Mr. Mallalieu and the force under his ordors.—l am, &c., "W. G. ROMAINE, Secretary. " To Sir Richard Mayne, K.C.8., &c." A letter dated Gibraltar, October 16, received at Plymouth by a naval officer, says : " The opinion hCre is that the French are to co operate with the Spaniards against the Moors, bnt that England objects to French interference. The Spaniards have here one liner, three corvettes, one sloop, and three paddlewheel steamers. The French have one three-decker, four two deckers, and tierce smaller vessels. The British forces con sist of the Marlborough, flag of Admiral Fanshawe ; the Edgar, flag of Admiral Erskine ; the Neptune, the Orion, the Princess Royal, the Centurion, the Victor Emmanuel, the Conqueror, the Comer, the Doris, the Scylla, the Cad ' mus, the Scourge, and the Lapwing. The Vulture is at Tangiers. The Edgar, Neptune, and Princess Royal are expected to sail shortly for England, and tho Caesar for Malta." --- Her Majesty's paddlewheel steam sloop Alecto, under heavy repairs at Woolwich, yesterday re ceived new boilers, end is otherwise in a forward state. The screw steam sloop Mutine, recently off the stocks, vs as yesterday unlocked at Woolwich, and the gunboat Louisa replaced in dock. The iron paddlewheel vessel Dover was taken into basin for examination and repairs, and the paddle wheel steamsloop Prometheus, recently commis sioned by Commander Skipworth for service on the West Coast of Africa, was hauled into the river in readiness for sea. By the launch of the fine line-of-battle screw steamship Irresistible, 80 guns which took place from No. 4 slip at Chatham Dockyard yesterday afternoon, the British navy has received another addition to its fleet of large line-of-battle screw steamers. The Irresistible has been upwards of five years in hand, having been commenced in May, 1854, and the history of her construction up to the present time is another instance of the faulty system in which the shipbuilding department of the Royal Navy is conducted. She was originally designed by Admiral Sir Baldwin Walker, the Surveyor of the Navy, for a sailing ship, and her lines and plans wore prepared with that view. After she had been a short time in hand and when approach ing towards completion the Admiralty decided on having her converted into a screw steamer, which of course necessitated considerable alterations in her original lines. These, however, were carried into effect under the direction of Mr. Lains, the former master shipwright at Chatham Dockyard, and the Irresistible havilig been slightly lengthened was finally completed by Mr. 0. W. Lang, the present master shipwright. Although the Irresis tible is in many respect inferior to several large line of battle-ships lately launched from Chatham, she is, nevertheless, a fine specimen of naval archi tecture, and will prove a valuab le acquisition to that class of vessels belonging to the navy. The following are her principal dimensions : Ft. in. Length between perpendic ulars l9O 0 Length of keel for tonn a g e E x treme breadth 56 9 Breadth moulded Depth in hold Burden in tons, 2,642 38-94ths. The Irresistible is pierced for 80 guns, which number she will carry, all being of the heaviest metal. The machinery with which she will be supplied will be of 400 horse-power (nominal). Her figure-head is a fine colossal bust of the ocean monarch Neptune, who is armed with his traditional trident. As everything relating to the British navy has just now a peculiar interest in the minds of the public the launch yesterday served to draw together an immense concourse of spectators, who tookup their position on each side of the building slip, every foot of which that provided a view of the launch being crowded. The timbers of the Bulwark, 91, and the Undaunted, 51, which are building on the two adjoining slips, also had their occupants. Immediately in front of the ship a spacious gallery was erected capable of accommo dating a large number of persons, and this was also crowded, chiefly by the gentry belonging to the neighbourhood. There was also a booth for the Lords of the Admiralty and members of Parlia ment, but none of the members of the board were present. Directly facing the bows of the ship a booth had been erected for the chief officers of the garrison and the principul officers of the dockyard required to take part in the launch, Major-General Eyre and most of the officers of the garrison being present. The ceremony of christening the ship was performed by Miss Williams, a relative of Col. M. Williams, commanding Royal Eng ineer at Chatham. The Irresistible is to be immediAely supplied vitli THE ARMY. The following Circular Memorandum has been issued to the army at home and abroad, relating to instruction of musketry : "Horse Guards, S.W., Oct. 21. "The General Commanding-in-Chief desires that the annual musketry practice returns, and the applications for rewards for good shooting, be invariably transmitted to the Inspector-General of Musketry by battalions in the United Kingdom, North America, and Australia, on the date of the autumnal half-yearly inspection , or, at the latest, on the 14th of November in each year; and by battalions serving elsewhere on the date of the spring inspection, or, at the latest, on the 15th of May. "The documents in question are to be rendered annually by every corps, whether completed or not in the prescribed yearly course ; and in cases where the course has been omitted, or not completed, a statement fully explaining the causes that have delayed or prevented the instruction is to accompany the annual musketry returns. "No application for rewards for good shooting will be entertained if transmitted after the dates above specified. " By command, "G. A. WE'rumt.u.i., Adjutant-General. The detachment of Royal Artillery, draughted from the depot brigade at Woolwich, under orders for supplementary service in China, a portion of whom are at present at Shoeburyness, carrying out a course of practical exercises with the Armstrong gun, has been increased from 250 non-commissioned officers and men to 275, in command of Captain Blakiston, and they are ordered to hold themselves in readiness for embarkation on the 4th of Novem ber, on board her Majesty's iron screw steam troop ship Simoom, Com.

FATAL COACH ACCIDENT.-011 Monday evening about a quarter past 7 o'clock, while arrangements were being completed for the departure of the stage -coach from Musselburgh to Edinburgh, the horses suddenly took fright, and ran off through Musselburgh to Fishorrow. When the coach was nearly opposite the Ship Inn, Fisher row, one of the outside passengers, a lady from Edinburgh, was thrown off, and so severely injured on the headthat she died about half-an-hour after the accident. —Scotsman. FALL OF A FACTORY CHIMNEY, NEAR HUDDERS FIELD.—About three o'clock on Wednesday morning, the atone chimney in course of erection at Messrs. John Day and Son's factory, Mold-green, Huddersfield, fell to the ground. It was 41 yards high, and fell across the yard in an easterly direction, destroying a two-storey building at the east end of the yard, and a portion of the wall of the mill lying to the west. The cause of the accident is be lieved to be a slip of th 3 " backings," or inner stone work of the chimney, which caused the exterior to bulge out, and fall. The damage caused by the fall is estimated at £4OO. A MAN PERISHED IN THE SNOW-STORM.--011 the forenoon of Sabbath, the 23d October, the body of a man, apparently about forty years of age, was found among the snow, on the farm of Old Noth; in the parish of Rhynie, near to the Sledge -bridge crossing the Bogie and railway. Shortly after the body was discovered, Dr. Gray (of Insch) was called, and had the body removed to the farm-house of Old Noth, where he examined it, and as no marks of vio lence were found on the person, ho was of opinion that de ceased had come to his death by exposure to cold and the inclemency of the weather. It is supposed from do_La.as.. ments in his pocket, that his name is James Graharrni,ygl terer, belonging to Rothes.
