This Company's Derricks are eminently adapted, by their great power, to raising sunken and recovering stranded vessels, The average number of wrecks upon our coasts, alone, ex ceeds one thousand annually, comprising upwards of 150,000 tons of shipping and steamers. The estimated value of this loss, taken at £l5 per ton for vessels and cargoes amounts to millions sterling. A large proportion of the vessels may be recovered by the Patent Floating Derricks, at a guaranteed rate of salvage, ranging between 25 and 75 per cent. An agreement has been entered into with the Marine Insurance Companies, and Underwriters of London and Liverpool, which secures to this Company 75 per cent. of the net salvage proceeds (after de ducting working expenses) from all vessels and cargoes, sunk prior to the date of the agreement, that may be recovered by means of the Patent Floating Derricks. In the United States two of these machines, belonging to the New York Derrick Company, have raised and saved over 400 vessels. This Company commenced by paying its shareholders half-yearly dividends of 10 per cent ; but, since July, 1857, has regularly paid quarterly dividends of the like amount. The Directors of the Patent Derrick Company and their friends have taken and paid up in full, shares to the extent of £40,000, in order to construct, and submit to the Public, one river and one sea-going Derrick, prior to soliciting co operation towards the Company important and promising en terprise for which the Company has been established. The Directors are now issuing to the Public further Shares of £5O each in the Capital Stock of the Company to the ex tent of ;X20,000. These shares are required to be paid as follows : £lO per Share on Application, and the remainder by Calls of £lO each, at intervals of one Month between each Call. Forms of Application for Shares, and Prospectuses, may be obtained at the Offices of the Patent Derrick-Company. 27, Cornhill, London, E.C. G. J. SHARP, Sec. THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.- It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious article of animal diet first made its appearance; and already its celebrity is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days since, a gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a " perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain. He then bought some of Thorley's food ; and he says the effect was wonderful. The horse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri cultural shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, &e., the animals which carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor ley's food for cattle. Such facts speak for thenvelves, and we are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle will do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street, London, for a pamphlet which is sent post-free. T O THE NERVOUS AND DEBILITATED.

The brig Shamrock arrived here from Copang Island of Timor, on the 19th of July, and brought intellgence of the loss of several vessels in Torres Straits. One was merely reported as a vessel with horses froth Sydney, and was supposed .to be the Watiata, but by subsequent inform ation which reached this port a few days ago, it appears that the ship was the Chesterholme from Hobart Town, with horses for Bombay ; all hands were saved. The only inforniation respecting the second vessel is, that she was a large American ship, and that her crew, as well as that of the ship with horses, were picked up in Torres Straits by Captain Carew, while on his voyage from New Zealand to Hong Kong. Of the Magda we have more definite par ticulars, the captain and a portion of the crew having arrived .bv the Shamrock. The Magda was from Geelong, bound to Java ; on June Ist, at 6.30 a.m., she struck on a reef off Cape Van Die m.. during the mate's watch on deck, and in order to facilitate any probability of getting her off, night sou m much us; thecargo and ballast were discharged, and the i a li l t o d w a she er nd vessel divested of all " top-hamper ;" during the sea masts aai sntr gained a s w e , were l. and e considerablyt thenh e eut Magdaaway,up o l e n a kb theeu leaked p the htwh this r • p oving of no avail, it became necessary to abandon the ship ; two b oa t s were ' got g out, the captain, second mate, seven of the crew, and two passengers going in one ; the mate, nine of the ship's company, and one passenger in the other boat. On the 7th of June, the mate's boat was lost sight of by the captain ; on the 10th the captain tried to land at a place called Alligator's River, but was prevented by the number of , monsters, from rom which this river is named, collected on its banks ; in fact, the alligators were so numerous, that effecting a landing was utterly impossible. On June 11th, the hands in the captain's boat got on shore and searched for water, when they were attacked by the blacks, who drove them backto the boat, throw ing spears at them, one of which struck the boats wain and caused his death. Subsequently to this the entire boat's crew were taken excepting the captain, second mate, and one man. Afterwards, the boat was driven from the land, but twice endea voured to get on shore for the purpose ofprocuring water ; on each occasion this was rendered ineffec tual; first, by the heavy surf, and again by the gathering of a quantity of blacks upon the coast. The men had then been three days without water, and it was considered advisable again to steer sea ward, under the hope of falling in with some ves sels. I.n making the land again on the 10th, the boat stranded on Ashmore's Bank, at 30.8 p.m. ; all the clothes the crew had saved, and everything else that could with prudence be parted with were thrown overboard to lighten the boat , which was hauled three miles along the rocks ; they succeeded in launching her again, and on June 18th, in lat. 11.45 south, and lon g . 121.25 east, they fell in with the bri g Shamrock. Capt. Punch immediately took them on board,• and we have been requested by the captain of the Magda to acknowledge the great kindness he and his fellow-sufferers experienced ment.— - •••••!"" ;The CHAIRMAN propo4ed the 4 'Army and Nally ," to, which, Colonel S: B. R. BRISE responded, and proposed " Her Majesty's Ministers"—(loud cheers)—whom he warmly complimented on their vigorous yet temperate foreign policy, their encouragement of social improvement, and their financial ability. The Government were now directing their attention to the question of Parliamentary reform, and he would ask whether the present state of that question was satisfactory ? Was it not the fact that at present the counties had only 144 members, while the boroughs had 319, although each county member represented 3,263 electors, while each borough member represented only 1,220 ? Was this a fair and just representation? Then, as to the wealth of the constituencies, the income-tax returns showed that each county member represented £54,000,000, while each borough member only represented .232,000,000. The toast was drunk with three times three and one cheer more. Mr. A. MAJENDIE , proposed the healths of the members for North Essex Major Beresford and Mr. Du Cane. (Loud and long - continuedcheers.) At the close of his address Mr. Majendie suggested that the society should promote a conservative de monstration to which gentlemen from Suffolk might be admitted, and that the meeting should take place in Hedingham Castle. The toast experienced a cordial response, and Major BERESFORD, M.P., on raking to respond, was received 'with loud cheers. He said—Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, it is now eleven years since I first rose in this room to return thanks for this toast, and the flattering manner in which you have now received it proves that I hold still some place in your feelings of regard and esteem, that your kind and friendly disposition to me remains still unimpaired, although my abilities to perform my duties may have suffered somewhat from the lapse of time. Since the prorogation I have had an opportunity of addressing a large portion of that constituency of North Essex to which I feel so de voted an attachment ; and I have had the means;of stating my views and opinions on isolated points which were appropriate at the meeting to which they were addressed, and which were topics of con versation at that time. But I have ever regarded this annual meeting , of your club at Castle :Reding- , ham as a fit occasion and an appropriate place where you may expect that your representatives should enter fully into the events of the past ses sion, and should gyre an account of the part which they have taken in the proceedings and labours of Parliament. When we met in this room last Octo ber, we were in the full turmoil and anxiety natu rally incident to the Indian rebellion. Our brave troops despatched from this country for the pur pose of suppressing it were only'approaching the scenes of their strenuous efforts and gallant triumphs. I was fully impressed with an un bounded confidence in their efficiency, their zeal, and ther valour • but, nevertheless. I eould not but entertain some feeling of apprehension at the ex tent of the emergency and the crisis. Impressed with this feeling, I considered it my duty to state my intention of tendering my humble support to the Ministry then at the helm of affairs—(hear)- -because they were upholding the dignity and honour of the country under dangerous and diffi cult circumstances. (Cheers.) Lord Palmerston showed at that time promptitude, vigour, and. a de termination to' maintain the power of our country in the East, ana the integrity of our empire. I, therefore, tendered him my support—my honest and independent support freely offered, not as a ministerial hanger-on, as in general politics I was still an opponent of his lordship, but as an honest vindicator of the honour of England and the irate= grity of the empire. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, from other circumstances Lord Pabznerston's Government was overthrown, and a new one was installed in its place. They were called upon to restore our su premacy of rule in the East, to restore order throughout our vast Indian empire, to punish those miscreants who had maimed their treacherous hands in the blood of our officers, women, and in nocent children ; to reward the faithful who had. remained true to their allegiance; and, lastly, to extend forgiveness to most of those who, although guilty in many points, did not mingle in or parti cipate in the dreadful atrocities committed. Under these difficult circumstances I thought it right to transfer that support which I had tendered to Lord Palmerston, from whom I differed politically on many points, to Lord Derby, with whom I agreed in most. I wish that I could add, as I once added, in all points ; but I cannot do so. I honestly con fess this. I cannot conceal from myself, and I should not be candid if I endeavoored to conceal from you, that in some few points I cannot sympa thise with all the measures which have emanated from, and. every principle which has been supported by, the present Government since it acceded to power. I have listened attentively to what has been said in regard to this point in this room to night, and I say here, now, upon the spur of the moment, that lam vain enough to think that in any point in which a difference of opinion does exist, I have not repudiated so much my former political creed and political promises as her Majesty's Go vernment has done_ (Hear.) Neverthless, I am not afraid to say openly that I have sup ported that Government when I could ; and I shall continue to give them my support as long as they ad here to Conservative measures and Conservative principles. (Hear, hear.) When Parliament met in February last two measures engrossed entirely, I may say, public attention. They were the As sassination Bill and the bill for transferring the dominion of India from the East India Company to the Crown. The. Ministers brought forward these two measures in the full and not unnatural confidence that they would be able to carry both triumphantly. I must acknowledge that when I first saw the announcement of the Assassination Bill I felt a very great repugnance to it, if I may use the word. I looked into it, and the more I examined it the more I thought there was a good deal of danger in entertaining it; and I felt certain that a very considerable amount of difficulty and anxiety must be entertained with regard to the passing of the bill, because if we passed. it we were establishing a precedent of - giving way in this country to our legislative enactments, and of being I guided if not by the menaces and actual threats of a foreign power, at least of altering the laws of England to please a foreign p o wer. This I thought ' was a most dangerous principle, which ou g ht t o be resisted. There were . circumstances also at the moment which materially added force to this im pression. The French government had recently given a very extended and official circulation to certain military addresses which were presented to the Emperor after the most barbarous, dangerous, and bloodthirsty attack upon his person. Those addresses, which were. published officially in the Moniteur, were full of the most fanfaronading menaces to this country from military bodies, and were conceived in the worst spirit ; and yet in the face of these productions, just made public, Lord Palmerston chose to press his measure upon the English legislature. .1 own that I was amazed to see such a measure come from Lord Palmerston of all statesmen, as I had. always considered his chief and great merit was, that of all statesmen he was most ready to stancl!forth to maintain the prestige and defend the pre-eminence of - our country in the eyes of the world. However, Lord Palmerston failed in this matter, and with the views and sentiments I entertained on the subject I deter mined that I would not even vote m favour of the admission of the bill. I took this resolution notwithstanding that I knew that a large body of the Conserratives, :With Many of - vihin I r - eeiPePt4l On the subject, were determined to support the in troduction of the bill. The division list proved the fact that a number of Our_party.were . favpr, of the measure ;' and the leader of the Opposition Mr. Disraeli, if I rememeer right—l am only speaking from memory—concluded a speech he made in, favour of the bill by saying that he approVed of it because it was not opposed to the maintenance of the rights and privileges of. Englishnien. 'I received the measure in a 'diametrically different light, and onsequently voted against it. We vOted a very small minority, and there were only about 20 Con srvatives in our lobby, but in that lobby was one. ho is -here to-night, and who voted like a true heneit Englishman I. mean ,my hon. friend. Mr., Du Cane. 'When the next stage of the bill came on we-had a triumph—the great body of the Conser vatives coming over and. adopting Mr. -Milner Gib son's amendment. The present Government 'when they attained power afterwards dropped the mea sure altogether, and did not continue the thing-far ther. I don't know whether they took the idea from a countryman of inine--a - good, lioneSt Irish- Mim, who took a very hot potato out of the pot one _day to stay his voracious app.etite. (Laughter.) However, they dropped the measure, thereby -con firming the justice of our' conduct in voting against the introduction of the bill ; and. I am very glad and proud ,to come before my constituents and say that I voted on that occasion solely On convietion, and. I trust in consonance and accordance with their views. "(Cheers.) I have. - one word more to say on this _point.- I heard lust year,.that.: I :Iszas ton sidered too ready to give support to Lord Palmer kon. But let us look at the facts. The very first , measure brought forward immediately after the opening of Parliament was not in consonance with my feelings, and I voted against it because I did not think it was worthy the prestige .and honour of England and ought not to besupported by English votes. The next measure to which I alluded wasthe India Bill, to transfer power and dominion in the East to the crown from that company which had car ried on with wonderful ability as a commercial company for a century. When the first division on the bill brought in by Lord Palmerston's Govern ment was about to take place it was my determina tion to go down and to vote with the Government in favour of the measure • but I did not do so, not from any change of feeling, or change of purpose, but from a severe attack of the gout suddenly seiz ing me and confining me to bed. I tried to pair, but they soon found I was immovable, and consequently would not pair with me. When the government of Lord Palmerston. was turned out and a new one installed in its place, it was announced from autho rity that the Conservative Government intended to transfer dominion in India from the Company to the Crown, but that they intended to do so in a bill of their own. I will not weary you by going into all the vicissitudes of the bill brought in by Lord Derby's Government, and all the changes and alte rations made in it. In the getierarcourse of that measure through the house I gave the present Go vernment my support, and cordially voted with them on several occasions ; but when the bill was in committee I acknowledge that I absented myself on some occasions; not from idleness, but delibe rately-and with malice aforethought, if' I may use the expression. I decidedly differed with the Go vernment on the desirability of certain clauses in committee, although I have the greatest repugnance to vote in direct opposition to the party with whom I have been so long and so intimately connected, when I can possibly vote in their favour. (Hear, hear.) I will only enter into one point, -which I think a material one, -and which was discussed when the India Bill introduced by Lord Derby's Government was in committee. It was a -very pro minent point, and one which is now in some degree embodied in the bill. It was that part of the bill which makes a portion of the administrative ele ment subject to election. My opinion on the sub ject is founded upon this—that by the constitution of this country, all administrative power and office is vested with the Crown. The Crown appoints individuals to fill the various offices and to admini ster them, subject to their being bound to give an account to the country of the way in which they perform their executive duties. Now I could not support that principle which . was tried. to be engrafted in that bill, viz., the taking one portion of the administrative council, to whom great powers and great patronage are attached, away from the ;nomination of the Crown, and giving the power of electing them to large constituencies, as proposed I and actually embodied in the bill first brought in, or to the East India Company, as at last enacted. It was upon this subject that I so greatly differed with her Majesty's Government ; but the bill is now law ; the Council has been elected, has met, and is presided over by a youthful but highly talented chief—one who never permits, and never will per mit, his own business, much less his own pleasure, to interfere with the discharge of duty, and whose talents are only surpassed by his unwearied dili gence. (Hear, hear.) In such hands I sincerely believe the results will be prosperous. I think we have no reason to doubt that under such auspices tranquillity will soon be restored in our Eastern dominions, that good government and justice will be extended throughout the vast extent of our In dian empire, and that the name of our Sovereign will be associated in the East with an increase of liberty and with a greater feeling of security, and consequently of confidence in her sway ; and last, but not least, I hope that the Christian religion no longer may remain in that anomalous position it has hitherto occupied. (Cheers.) Another subject, gentlemen, which has been mooted this year at every public meeting of which I have read an ac count, and with regard to which it' has been hinted that I am to tell you a great deal about, is the pro mised Reform Bill. However, you will get very little out of me on th e su bject. (Laughter.) I have not committed myself on that subject hitherto, and Ido not intend to do so. The reason why I say so, and why I take that course is, that however much it may be talked of, and however much it may be mooted at so many places, the subject is yet, as they say on the turf, a dark one. You might as well talk of the winner of the Derby next year as of what this Reform Bill will be; and under these circumstances I shall wait for an authorised version of the bill. When it is produced I trust and believe that I shall act in that way which, in my opinion, will be most advantageous for the great interests of the nation, and, at the same time, for the benefit of my constituents. I have heard a great deal said about this bill, and if it only rea lises what has been said about it, it will be a most wonderful measure, and a miraculous piece of legis lation ; for I have seen it stated at two or three meetings that it is to suit all classes and please all parties. (Laughter.) Now, if this is really the nature of the bill, good gracioust let us pass it by all means by acclamation ; but it strikes me, at the same time, if this Parliament does enact a bill pleasing to all parties, and worthy of all commen dation, it is hardly fair that it should be immedi ately afterwards exterminated. I cannot under stand the justice of extinguishing a Parliament under such circumstances. On the contrary, I think that if this bill is of the character which it is stated, it will be a very sufficient and strong con tradiction of the character which they will probably give themselves in the preamble of the measure, which is to be the act of their extermination. (A laugh.) In conclusion, Major Beresford stated that many other topics in which the company might take an interest, came within the province of his colleague, Mr. Du Cane, who had greatly distin guished himself in the house •, and having denied for his own part a suspicion, which he was informed a few individuals 'entertained, that he had some Whig 'tendencies, the right lion, and gallant mem ber resumed his seat amid loud cheers. Mr. Du CANE, M.P., expressed his opinion that the present meeting was held under brighter' aus pices both as regards the prospects of the country at large and the &Alines of the Conservative party. Without pledging himself in the.slightest degree to abstract theories, or to the details of any measure of reform which might or might not be brought forward, for at this moment the measure of parlia mentary reform was very much in the position of the, Spanish fleet in the play of the Critic, " The Spanish fleet we cannot se e Because it is not yet in sight — ' h gi e v w e houisldsuvpepntourrtthat su . e he would the subject gladly e to th an s y ta m te e h a we ohmi judicious comprised extensiona mong ot of . e the provisionseoumode ratontyraanchise, ic na and t h s e o l held education, a bet better intelligence, andfai r property s cop et , o u n t the, u e hews than they at present possessed.

The Earl - of FLuiDwicitE, in responding A to the toast of ""The Navy," remarked that it was in gene ral customary in this country to propose " The '_Array and the Navy" in that order of precedence, why it was difficult to say, as this our Sea-:girt isle mainly owed its protection to our " weeder' walls?! (Loud cheers.) If he might venture to assign a:reason, it would be, because the army, as a service, was more immediately under the direction of the -Crown— under the control of the Sovereign. With regard to the body for which it was his duty to return thanks, inasmuch as he was either at the head of the Rear-Admiral's list; or a t th e b o tto m o f th e Vice-Admiral's—h e really did not know- which— (lauhter)—ho would venture to ma k e . it•few re marks ; and he would first observe that every mem her of the service felt deeply grateful for the com plimentary and appropriate 'way in whielithat toast was received in all social and political societies. The profession to which it was his pride to belong was perhaps more important to this country than , any other. .11e would-ifet say that all had not -their duties to perform ; but if there was one pro fession in which more than another Englishmen tookli deep and prominent interest, he believed it wioe, that represented by the toast just given by the chairman. .(Cheers.) They should remember that they lived in a country surrounded by water, and. that The protection of their country, their com merce, and their trade depended upon their--floating batteries, on the character of the officers who -commanded, and the efficient equipment . of their fleets by the State. (Cheers.) All the- Ministers this country had ever had had admitted that the' provision for the maintenance of this service was of the deepest interest. It was not alone the securing a proper number of hands to man our fleets, but these required an enormous revenue to support them in that state of efficiency which was absolutely necessary for the safety—he might almost say the existence of this country, but he might safely say: for its existence as a first-rate Power. The ? navy, as a profession must be cherished, and th e y must . not be—it would befalse economy to be—niggardly in its support. The circumstances he was about to relate might not perhaps be known to. them, en gaged as they were in agriculture, but it was now time that the people of this country were made aware of the condition of that service upon which their safety principally depended. He was not alluding to any particular nation when he said that, taking into consideration the condition of the fleets of other countries, it was high time we pre pared for any difficulty that might arise by looking keenly to the state and condition, to the efficiency of our naval defences. (Cheers.) It was highly necessary, he repeated, though he did not believe that any of the nations of Europe, highly civilised as they now were—high as their social condition now was—he did not believe, he said, that any one of those nations would turn bucaneers and make a piratical descent upon our coasts—the coasts o a country whose only duty it now was to advance the condition of mankind and whose only object, as avowed,was to retain its own—(cheers)—and was not, if it ever was, actuated by an aggressive policy. (Cheers.) This was now a country that simply asked to be enabled to carry on the pursuit of in dustry and virtue, to put to the b.st advantage the great gifts which Almighty God had bestowed upon her, and create a bond of brotherhood and friend ship with all other nations. (Cheers.) At the same time we should be prepared at any moment to show that we were resolved to vindicate our honour and character if attacked, and to give our gallant sons the opportunity of exhibiting that prowess which ever had, and, he said it emphatically ever would distinguish them. The condition of the British navy was now such as it had never, been in the times of their sires ; and though knell' condition was to be regretted, still it did not arise from any neglect on the part of the Government, but by reason of the improvement daily science and art—in the mode and regulation , conduct of the affairs of the maritime world. It arose alone from the introduction of steamships ' • it was this which had such an effect upon the condi tion of our navy. The introduction of steam had, as it were, created in maritime matters a clean sheet of paper over the whole world, and had called upon all nations to begin again in nautical matters. They might consider that sailing ships were struck 'out as engines of war, though of course they were still fitter for means of transit and for mercantile purposes where economy was an object and time of comparatively small consequence,_ with regard to floating bodies upon the water. For the purposes Of war, however, sailing vessels were at an end, and had been since 1850, when they first began to pro pel ships of war by the screw system. Since that time the nations of the world had begun to create new navies. He must say, and impress it upon them, that he believed the condition of our navy to be weaker than at any period, certainly absolutely weaker than that of some great Powers near us ; and though the vote given by Parliament might be considered large, still they must open their purses, and give more to put the Government in a position to do justice . to the brave men who were ready to embrace the public service. He felt justified in enlarging upon this subject, as he was sure it was one that would soon press itself upon the public mind. Those who condacted the affairs of the important naval profession were not altogether settled in their minds as to the most expedient way of laying out the public money in the way best calculated to promote the public good, for so rapid was the progress of science and so variable the minds of inventors, that not six months elapsed without some change. This led to great difficulties, for no sooner was produced what was thought complete, than a step in advance was introduced, and frequently what had been done had to be undone. Improve ments were introduced not only in the construe- , tion of ships of war, but also in the most economical way of producing them. It was but the other day that it was his duty to visit the different ports in the country on a tour of inspection, with a view to deport on the state of the navy, and he then had opportimities of seeing experiments madewhich had proved to him the miserable inefficiency of our pre sent ships for war purposes. He meant the ships built of wood. Experiments were tried on the side of an oaklbuilt frigate, which was plated with iron in sections in various ways. On one part wasplaced a sheet of iron four in c h es thi c k, wroug ht in her Majesty's dockyard; another section was plated with iron four inches in thickness, but in different plates, the one over the other ; then there were plates of iron covered with indiarubber 10 inches thick, and various other preparations. The frigate was laid off a battery, and fired upon with 68- pounders charged with 161 h. of powder. The result was that the iron first mentioned broke every shot as if they were dust, and all the other sheathings were shut through as though they were rotten eggs. The bit of iron four inches thick wrought in the common way resisted the fire of those heavy guns for several hours, and h e wo uld put it to intelligent minds what a revulsion such a fact as that must at once create not only in_the state and. c onditionbu t in the form of our floating bodies destined for w ar purposes. Constructed in the ordinary manner their they could not possibly carry the weight of iron sides together with their guns, so they must !e -duce Or cut down their top sides. It was surprising that thiimaterial had never been thou w g h h e t n of the ida before e to cover the sides of shipsof war, but did occur it occurred to two or three at -the sam e moment, though he believed that the compliment for its first introduction was due to the present Em peror of the French, who coupled it with the screw propeller. • If, then, we intended to - be, as we always had been, the most formidable maritime Power in the world —and if we were not that we must sink into a second-rate Power, inasmuch as in ships of the line we were alreadyinferior to other nations— they must not be surprised if G overnment asked them for sums of money sufficient to place the navy on the footing in which every Englishman wished to see it. (Cheers.) It had been the practice very much of late on the part of writers who chiefly instructed and led the public, and for whom he entertained the highest respect, to " puff up" the condition of the navy, and lead the people to believe that it was the finest in the world, and also to lead the public to believe that England's navy was a most important item in effecting a settle ment of the late war with Russia. It was no such thing. In the late war our maritime power had" been comparatively nothing. He should perhaps be excused, the subject being so important, if he substantiated his statement by some quotations from the Annual Register, showing what our power is, what it was, and what it ought always to "o:, e , remembering that it was not only necesscey to have fleets at sea, but to maintain the compa e nd of the British Channel, for whatever Polar we were of thr :1 lihatireciousxee4born , ofitlia silver pea." ire forgot the context at the moment, but he knew that it applied_to the important matter 'of the pro tection of our sea-girt 'i,slE-=--(eheeis)!,—whieh we 4ould make- , defensible , 'against any fleets that ould possibly be pit to sea. —ln the -seven years - 7a.r of 17G3. we had,ll3 sai' of i tlie line, and Par anient voted' s t e*en,y,rid'iiiiigineS, and in lose:which follsweathe figures were as under : • Seamen and War. .; Date: k 'Sail.

SATURDAY. The Hinckford Conservative and Agricultural Club, one of the most important political societies in the eastern counties, celebrated its anniversary last evening at Castle Iledinghfun, near this town. The proceedings are not merely devoted to after dinner" speeches, as deserving labourers are not for gotten by the society, which offers rewards of the character usually in vogue in the agricultural dis tricts. The dinner of the members in the evening was very numerously attended. The chair was ably occu pied-by Mr. T. Miller, M.P. for Colchester, who was supported hy the Right Hon. W. Beresford, M.P.; Mr. C. Da Cne, M:P. ;. Sir W. 8. - Smijth, late M.P. for South Essex ; Mr. O: S. Onley i Sir C. de Ores pigny, Mr. A. Majendie, theltiv. J.

(Cheers.) The next, question to which they should - turn their minds, supposing the fleets provided, was to the stout hearts who were to man them, which had been a subject of great import ance in the minds of all the governing powers for many years, forjr,c - mi the nature and character of our commerce, which extended over the Whole globe, there was, always great difficulty in manning the fleet of ships usually in commission, even witk the ample time • afforded under ordinary circum" stances, the ships being gradually , rigged and fitted. The prevision in this respect, then, for a sudden emergency was; and had been for:years, the question of the day. In times gone by, when the public mind was not so powerful or inquiring, and the press was not the great and almost all-ruling power • it had since becenie, it was the custom in sneh ' emergencies to lay an embargo on our ports, and take the seamen by the strong hand to man our fleets. But in the progress of time the public had decided that this was a pains -taking, an unsatisfactory, and a slave-making mode, which they would not put up with any longer ; and consequently everything had been done of late years to ameliorate the condition of the seamen on board our ships of war, and to render the service of the country more popular. That was the course that had been and was still being taken ; but, although he would not speak disparagingly of the sailor, for without a charac teristic he was about to impute to them our tars would not be what they were, their recklessness was such that they only valued what was before their eyes at the moment, and disregarded anything like provision in the shape of pension in the time of sick ness or old age. Her Majesty had been pleased to place him (the noble speaker) at the head of a com mission, with a view of seeing if anything could be laid before her Majesty to solve this great problem —how in the case of need they should be enabled at short "notice to man 30 or 40 sail of the line. He felt that the undertaking was a grave one, and he addressed himself thereto with the greatest pos sible desire to bring it to a satisfactory conclu sion. He did not think the Crown should abandon that great and important right it had ever exercised for the purpose of the defence of the country, of taking . persons who had been bred up to the naval profession, whether merchant seamen or otherwise, • and compelling those persons to stand forth in the ' defence of the country. There was not a man in Eng.. land who was not compelled by moral law and con. stitutional right to give up his blood for the defence of the country ; and he was at a loss to understand, that being the case, that merchant seamen should not be compelled to lend their exertions to protect the homes and firesides of England. While he felt that every exertion should be made to ameliorate the condition of the sailor, and to provide at the expense of the State for his widow and orphans, he seriously advocated that the Crown should never abandon the right of impressment, but adhere to the prin ciple of laying an embargo on our ports and seizing sailors for the defence of the country. He knew the exercise of the power was painful, and should only be used in cases of the direst emergency ; but used it ought to be, when the lives, the property, the wealth of the inhabitants of this great nation Were at stake. When such sacred interests were at stake the matter vanished before his mind as a question of law, the two great questions being ; placed in juxtaposition. The mode of taxing w difficult matter to decide on—whether by a ballo as in the militia ; whether for a term of years, ac cording to the age of the parties : all these ques tions must be considered, this being an island, and considering that, though at peace (and he prayed fervently that this peace might continue), we should always be prepared for war. The officers of the navy were most anxious to be placed in such a po sition by the good understanding and right feeling of the people of England, and when called upon to shed their blood in the defence of their country, weapons and means should be placed in their hands not only to show their strength and ability, but their readiness to meet the liberal expenditure of the country by making the best use of those weapons. His Lordship resumed his seat amid loud and continued cheering ; and after some other toasts relating to local matters the proceedings ter minated. THE BRITISH GOLD DIGGINGS. (From the Panama Star.) Our dates from Victoria, Vancouver Island, are to the 27th August ; and from Fort Hope, Fraser River, to August 23. The principal item of news is the threatened breaking out of a serious war between the Indians and the miners. Ever since the white men have invaded the Fraser River country, they have been made to submit to various annoyances and outrages from the savages. These have become more and more frequent and unbear able, and lately not a few white men, who have been caught at a distance from the large camps, alone or in small parties, have been murdered. T 9 protect themselves the whites at Fort Yale enrolled into two or three companies, and started out into the Indian country to fight, or awe the savages to making a peace. A few days after they had left Fort Yale (on the 18th August) a report reached that place that one of the companies had been sur prised at night by a large body of Indians, and that all but one or two had been inhumanly butchered. This news created immense excitement among the miners all along the banks of the river, and in Victoria, when the account of the massacre reached there. The miners held meetings, memorialised the Governor for arms, organised companies, and pre pared themselves for a war of exterraination. Many were disposed to censure the Hudson's Thly Company, and the most serious difficulties Were apprehended all around, While matters were in this posture, news came in that the account of wi the . wholesale massacre of the white company was true. out had hadsucceeded found the Indians peaceably .dihspos The companies that had in effecting a treaty wit them. While one of the died, rtanedd companies was subsequent l y camped out for the n ight with their new I ndian fr iends , a war party of savages, who had not heard of the treaty, re turned, and seeing the whites around the camp fire, discharged a volley at them, which killed the captain, one Graham, and his first lieutenant, out right, and wounded some of the men. The friendly Indians at the camp succeeded in signalising the attacking party to desist, when explanations were made, and sorrow expressed fo r th e m i s t a k e . This was the foundation for the story of the massacre. Since the formation of the treaty no outrage had been committed. But as the presence of the miners on the bars and banks of Fraser River interfere with the salmon fisheries, which are the chief depe deuce of the savages for food, it is certain that seri ous difficulties must hereafter be continual between them and the miners. The mining news from Fraser River is still un satisfactory. The river at latest accounts was too high to allow of profitable .working by a majority of the miners. Some " dry diggings ' have' bean discovered near Fort Yale, but what is their rich ness or their extent is not yet known here. Consi derable excitement had also prevailed at Victoria' concerning some reported gold discoveries on Van couver Island, north-west of Victoria from five to 25 miles. As many as a thousand p;eople had rushed there and " staked off claims ;" but the latest ac counts represent the whole thing as a humbug. Gold was found in minute pr.aticles, but not in suffi cient quantity to pay tlar. -diggers. Business -was very dull at Victoria, trad property there had greatly depreciated in valw%. A few of those who went up to Fraser River., and a large n umber of those who proceeded no f ur th er than Vi c toria and Bellingham.
