There is a good deal of interest about the meeting this evening, to which Prince Albert will come over from Osborne House. It is to be held in the Victoria-rooms —a building full of lecture apartments. The largest room has been selected for the occasion, but it has the misfortune to be down stairs. When his Royal High ness alights at the entrance of the house, he will have to proceed down into tho part commonly appropriated in our houses to the kitchen. However, a carpet is being laid upon the stairs, and with other arrangements for a facilis deeensus, the best face will be put upon the mate ter, though a meeting in the area will be something new to the Prince. The day's proceedings hitherto have been dull in the extreme ; but I have amused myself with a pamphlet which the Southampton local committee present to every member of the Association. A very respectable gentle man has been persuaded to write a description of the town and its neighbourhood, for . the use of the visitors on this occasion. H e i s qu i te an enthusiast, but evi dently has an eye to the useful as well as the pleasant. The want of water, f,,r instance, being a s a d trouble to the inhabita n t s , th e difficulty is very naturally handed over to this " congress of men of science," as he phrases it, whilst if any of them are disposed to migrate, they may see the need the town has of an infusion of better folks, for " it has been ascertained that in one district of it, among 1,094 persons above fifteen years of age, 957 do not attend any place of worship."' As for antiqui ties, if the members of " congress" have a taste that way, every acre of it, it appears, swarms with relics. Here, as tradition runs, is " the pond where King John's horses were watered ;" an ancient hall over the Bar gate being used to this day as a court of justice, the judges still " sit by the gate." The Queen lately cast anchor here—" her Royal vessel occupying the very station which the galleys of ancient Rome were wont to occupy ;" and it is alleged to be " indeed highly pro bable that the quay of Southampton " may have been the scene of Canute's long famous rebuke to the flattery of his courtiers." It seems that the treasurer's account for the past year contrasts rather unfavourably with its predecessor, although the statement just presented includes the meeting at Cambridge in 1845—a town at which 1,000 'members then met, and which had the benefit of being remembered as the place where, at the meeting in 1833, every member's signature was obtained, and a litho graphed fac-simile of each published as a " volume of varieties." The receipts from subscriptions during the *et year have fallen to about one-halt the amount of the previous year's; the small number of annual sub scriptions leads to the conclusion that a large proportion of the members have availed themselves of the privilege of subscribing 101. in one sum, instead of 1/. a year. The credit side of the account, presented yesterday, is kept up only by the sale of 1,000/. Consols. The grants for scientific purposes have sunk from 8311. in the one year to 6851 in the other; but the officers' salaries have risen from 1751. to 5251., the latter slim, however, being stated to be for 18 months. SIR O'CLOCK.—Prince Albert has just arrived in the Fairy, and has driven off to Lord Palmerston's seat at Broadlands, about six miles from this place. Ilis Royal Highness will dine there, and will come to the Victbria rooms at eight o'clock. The Fairy has returned to Cowes, and therefore the Prince will sleep at Broadlands. EXPERIMENTAL TRIP - OF THE SIDON STEAM FRIGATE. This fine war steamer, constructed at Deptford on the plan of Sir Charles Napier, and fitted with engines of .550 horse-power, on a principle entirely new in its ap plication to steam-vessels, was tried down the river yes terday to ascertain her capabilities. The Sidon left her moorings opposite the dockyard, Deptford, at two o'clock having on board Captain Superintendent Sir John Hill, Commodore Sir Charles Napier, Captain Pelham, and several other scientific gentlemen. The river was very crowded between Deptford and Greenwich with vessels, steam-boats, and barges, and it was a task of some diffi culty to steer a vessel of the magnitude of the Sidon, through them without injury to the smaller craft, but by skilful management the difficulty was overcome in a very satisfactory manner, and the vessel pas se d G reenw i c h and Blackwall without much difficulty. On entering Bugsby's Hole, a schooner, the Two Sisters of Whitby, had just lifted her anchor, and was floating up with the tide, and although warned in a m pl e ti me t o s t ar b oar d her helm, the steersman ported it, and the vessels came in contact, the paddle-box of the Sidon crushing the stern of the Two Sisters, and the fore-yard of the steamer breaking down the top-mast of the schooner. The Sidon was presently got clear, and proceeded down the river in fine style, after a delay of about three quarters of an hour. Captain-Superintendent Hous ton Stewart, C. 8., of Woolwich Dockyard, came on board on the Sidon arriving opposite that place, and she then went down the river to Long Reach, her speed being guessed at from eight to nine knots per hour. The timbers of the Sidon are put together in the strongest manner, and her accommodations on board are of a superior description. The engines above the water level are entirely made of malleable iron, or of a com position similar to gun metal, as hard as the best iron, to resist the action of shot. The expansion gear is worked by tappits below, and the shaft is per fectly clear of any trapping. The stroke of the engines is six feet four inches, and the number of revolutions with_rtstrldle-wheel, thirty feet in dia. Deptford-dockyard at five minutes past six o'clock, p.m. During her progress up the river-a very pretty model of a reefing paddle-wheel was exhibited, and the principle of its construction and advantages explained, to show that the floats could be regu ated by the crew on deck to suit the changes in draught of water according to the load on board at the time. The Sidon has all her guns on board, consisting of four 56-pounders of 88 cwt. each, on gun-carriages, with traversing platforms. Two of these guns are placed at the stern and two at the bows. She has four 32-pounders of 56 cwt. each on the upper deck, and ten on the lower, making her whole armament 18 guns, with two light 6-pounder field pieces mounted, to be drawn on shore by men or horses, and two 12-pounder carronades. Her masts have been fitted with Harris's lightning conductors, and no exertion has been spared on the part of her de signer to render her a perfect war steamer worthy of the British navy.

Travels and Travellers, by Mrs. Trollope, 2 vols., 21s. bound. A girl, only ten years of age, employed in a bead manufactory in the Rue de Faubourg du Temple, was so tormented by her associates that she became weary of life. Having made a packet of her little property, she left it, with a paper directing its distribution among her sisters after her death. She passed Sunday with her mother, and on going to bed took a most affec tionate leave of her and the rest of the family. She got up, but instead of going to her work, walked to the canal and threw herself in; but, fortunately, a man going to his labour saw the act, and jumping in, brought her safely out. After a short delay, she mentioned where she lived, and he took her back to her mother. — Paris paper. Lord and Lady Campbell and the Honourable Miss Campbell are shortly expected to arrive at Stewart field, near Jedburgh. The Noble and Learned Lord, since he bas purchased that estate, has had the man sion greatly improved by alterations of an extensive description. WOOLWICH, SEPT. 10.—The Acheron steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Aplin, was paid off at Woolwich yesterday, having been nearly five years in commission on the Mediterranean station. She was commissioned to-day by Lieutenant Dunlop, who will command her. The Adventure transport-ship was towed to Deptford yesterday, to be loaded with stores for the western yards. The Bebe hulk has been brought alongside the William and Mary yacht, to receive the single men of the Royal Marines of the Woolwich division who are to do duty at the dockyard, and the married men will re main for the present in qulrters at the garrison, to do duty at the north-best entrance, until their new bar racks are finished. Seventy-one female convicts were brought down the river yesterday, in No. 2 Waterman steam-boat, and one hundred and four female convicts this morning, in No. 7 Waterman steam-boat, under the charge of five matrons, three policemen, and one super intendent, and placed on board the Henry and Elizabeth barque, lying off the Royal Arsenal to receive female convicts for New Australia. POST-OFFICE ARRANGEMENTS..--The inhabitants of the south-eastern suburban districts of the metropolis were most agreeably surprised yesterday morning by re ceiving their country letters before nine o'clock, instead of as heretofore, between ten and eleven, or even later. This alteration will give great satisfaeLion, and add ma terially to the convenience and interest of large numbers engaged in business. ADEAD BODY FOUND.—The body of an elderly woman, five feet two inches in height, of stout build, and who had apparently moved in humble life, was, on the 4th instant, cast up by the sea at Birchington, in the Isle of Thanet. From the state of the body, it had evidently been several weeks in the water. She had on when discovered a light drab mousseline de laine gown, spotted with black and pink, a flannel petticoat, a thick plaid petticoat, white cotton stockings, marked I. N., and thick boot shoes, much worn. In the pockets of her dress were found three keys, one of them five inches long, having attached to it a small oblong copper label, marked "N. Tower," a light brown silk purse, with plated clasp, containing 9s. 6d., a dark bone-handled knife, with two long stout blades, but bearing no mark or name, and a tooth packed up in a brass thimble. On her wedding finger was a thin gold ring. The clothes and other matters have been preserved by the Deputy of Birchington, as likely to lead to her identity.—Dover Telegraph. THE - EARL GROSVENOR.—Hugh Lupus, the eldest son of the Marquis of Westminster, will attain his majority on the 18th of October next. It is said that public rejoicings in celebration of the auspicious event are to take place in Chester. and throughout the ex tensive estates to which the Noble Earl i 5 heir; but what the nature of them is to be, has no s transpired.--Chester Chronicle. -'brg N L • , i No. 16,842.

ALDERTON, SUFFOLK, Eight Miles from the capital Market Town and Port of Woodbridge. VALUABLE ESTATE, comprising npwards of 850 Acres, Land ',Tax Redeemed. MR. W. W. SIMPSON is directed by the Pro prietor to offer for SALE by AUCTION, at the Mart, on TUESDAY, September 22, at Twelve, in Two Lots, a most valuable and highly-cultivated ESTATE, comprising 854 Acres of land, lying in a ring fence, divided as follows : Lot I. A superior Residence, with agricultural buildings, and 512 Acres, in the occupation of Mr. Thomas Roberts, on lease, for a ttrm of eight years, from Michaelmas, 1843, at a rent of 4501. per annum. This lot is entirely freehold. Lot 2. Ad excellent Residence, with superior agricultural build ings, and 342 Acres, In the occupation of Mr. John Ablitt, at a rent of 3501. per annum, also oft lease for a term of eight years from Michaelmas, 1843. Part of this lot is freehold, and the remainder copyhold. The estate consists (independent of the sheep-walks) chiefly of fertile and easy tillaged arable land, adapted to the turnip system of husbandry, and the marshes, amounting to about 120 acres, arc of great productiveness and excellent grazing quality. It is situate in the healthy and pleasant villages of Alderton and Ramsholt (a district celebrated for its sporting varieties), only eight miles from the excellent market town and port of Woodbridge, and fifteen from Ipswich. At Ramsholt there is a wharf where earn can be shipped at all hours of the tide. The land-tax is redeemed, the rates are very low, and the apportionment of rent charge mo derate. The tenants are of a first-class description in all respects, and expressed great satisfaction and in terms of self-gratulation that they are under leases. The Inference, therefore, to be drawn in respect of the permanency of the present and prospective improve ment of the rental is left by Mr. Simpson for the public to decide. Mr. Simpson is authorised to receive offers for the entire property by Private Contract, up to within one week of the day of sale. Particulars, with plans of the property will be shortly published, and may then be obtained of John Wood, jun., Esq., solicitor, Woodbridge ; of Henry Ward, Esq., 51, Lincoln's Inn-fields ; at the White Horse, Ipswich; and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Buck lerabury. The following observations comprise the substance of Mr. Simp son's predictions relative to the abolition of the corn-laws, which were noticed in the newspapers In connexion with the sale of large estates in Suffolk, in April last, and he now has the satisfaction to observe that they are already to a great extent realised. Mr. Simp son acknowledged that till within the last year he had been a tho rough-going Protectionist. After a three years' test of Sir Robert Peel's measures, added to his extensive experience up to the pre sent period in the letting and sale of landed property, he was now free and proud to confess that sliding and other scales had fallen from his eyes, the result of which was, that he was now a thorough-going anti-Protectionist, from an honest and firm convic tion that rents which had been set on fair and liberal principles (within the last seven years) would be permanent; and he fearlessly stated that the years' purchase on such rentals had risen within the last six months, and in all probability would continua to rise on the settlement of the great question in respect to free trade in corn, &c. For the truthfulness of these statements, Mr. Simpson re ferred to recent lettings and sales which have been published not only by himself, but by other auctioneers and land-agents. The consumption and demand of an increasing population (in the ratio of about 1,000 per day), the capital, skill, industry, and enterprise of Englishmen, in addition to the easy and inexpensive transit of their produce to the first markets in Europe, would form such a counterpoise as would enable us to compete sue cessfully with the miserably uncultivated lands and minds of exotic growth. Not only the increase of population, but also the accumu lation of wealth, is going on in this country, arising from the employ ment of capital in the various branches of agriculture, trade, and commerce, the clear profits of which, it is inferred, amount to 50,000,0001. annually ; this, and the high value of the funds, must in duce remunerating prices in corn and produce, and stimulate a desire to invest in land, the only,property, indeed, which can be considered essentially permanent under adverse circumstances produced by po litical events. Instead, therefore, of the motto, " agitate, agitate,. let us substitute that of " cultivate, cultivate," and let landlords assist improving tenants by making advances (in the nature of improve ments in drainage, Sze.), of the additional capital which may be re quired, charging for the same at the rate of five per cent. on that expenditure, which shall be judiciously laid out. Hence the tenant farmer will reap an additional benefit of at least fifteen per cent., and a permanent Improvement of the value of the farm (quasi land lord) will supervene. It is stated by those who ought to be consi dered the most competent judges, that if this wise measure of free trade had not been carried out, the price of corn and produce would have risen to such an extent as to ra'uce the greater portion of the population of Ireland to a state bordering on starvation ; and in England a similar result would have occurred amongst the manu facturing and labouring poor. Mr. Simpson has also been assured by most respectable salesmen in Smithfield market, that if it had not been for the alteration of the tariff, beef and mutton would long since have risen to ls. per lb. ; and even now the conclusion arrived at is, that instead of the prices of corn and meat being too low, between this and next harvest they will obtain a height beyond that which would be conducive to the general prosperity of the country 4 IRELAND. GLASS WORKS at CORK. 31[R. W. W. SIMPSON has received instruc tions from the Proprietor to OFFER to the public, on most encouraging terms, the valuable GLASS WORKS (held on lease for upwards of 200 years. at an annual rent of only 801.), situate on the south-terrace, Cork, within a Jew yards of one of the principal quays of the city. The premises consist of spacious store-rooms, handsome show rooms, cutting shop, &c., on which, with the machinery, a large ;am has been expended ; they are constructed on the most approved principles, are in the most thorough repair, and perfect working order. They are admirably adapted for all the purposes of business, and the entire trade in glass of the counties of Cork, Kerry, Clare, and Limerick, as well as a large export trade (for which this concern possesses peculiar advantage), could be readily secured. ParticularS may be had of Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Ducklersbury, Lona*. IRELAND.-COUNTY OF ANFRISI. One of the most improving and extensive FEE.SIMPLE ES TATES In the United Kingdom, containing 50,000 Acres, the greater part situate in the manufacturing district of the county. W. W. SIMPSON has the 'honour to an-• _ _ I pounce that he has surveyed, by order of - tlye/4o1;1e icO prietor, and intends to OFFER for SALE by AUCTION,in the Autumn, at the Royal Hotel, in Belfast, The GALGORM or GLENAHGERTY, the BRAID, and KELLS ESTATES, in the county of Antrim. A large portion of these estates is rich and very productive land, lying in the valleys of the River Main, and the Braid and Kells waters. The Galgorm Estate includes the fine mansion of Galgorm Castle, on which a considerable sum has been recently expended in valuable improve. ments. Attached to the castle is a demesne of about 150 acres of superior land, in hand. On the property, which embraces a great volume of water-power, there are many extensive bleach greens, beetling and corn mills, in the occupation of wealthy and respect able manufacturers ; and several of the tenantry are engaged in, or connected with, the various branches of the linen trade; the ma jority are Protestants, and, in the highly favoured province of Ulster, are remarkable for their industry and intelligence. The bogs attached to the estate are very valuable, and there are exten sive tracts of pasturable and easily reclaimed mountain lands, abundantly stocked with game. The property is in the immediate neighbourhood of Ballymena, and approaches within a quarter of a mile of this, the largest inland town in the county, and is only 20 miles distant from Belfast. The entire of the estates includes a surface of about 50,000 acres. The Belfast and Ballymena Rail way, the works of which are contracted for, passes through the pro perty, as will also two other railways in contemplation. Particulars are in preparation, and may, in due time, be ob. tained of Messrs. J. W. Sherlock and Sons, 29, Grenville.street, Mountjoy-square, Dublin, and Fermoy, Ireland; at the place of sale; and of Mr. W. W.Simpson, 18, Bucklersbury. Mr. Simpson, while drawing the attention of capitalists to the above valuable estates, wishes to state that a second edition of his pamphlet has been published, on which the " news paper made the following review :—" Mr. W. W. Simpson, the well-known and deservedly respected auctioneer and land valuator, has recently published a pamphlet, entitled A Defence of the Land lords of Ireland, with Remarks on the Relation between Landlord and Tenant,' the' Dublin Evening Packet,' in reviewing this work, gives the following character of its author Mr. Simpson, we scarcely need remind our readers, is an Englishman, of vast ex. perience in matters relating to the improvement and value of land in his own country. He is, moreover, a gentleman of most com prehensive views, and possesses en understanding naturally strong, and a stock of practical knowlege and sterling sense which falls to the lot of very few persons in his own or any other rank of life. With the social condition of Ireland he has made it his business, almost as a matter of necessity, to make, himself thoroughly ac quainted. He feels for her wants, and has contributed as much, perhaps, as any man in his time to improve her resources, by en couraging the investment of British capital in every department of Irish industry. Such a witness as this we therefore bold to be beyond the reach of suspicion, on the score either of interest or partiality. His testimony must be regarded as invaluable, as it is unquestionably unimpeachable.' " IRELAND—IN THE COUNTY OF KERRY. Extensive and improvable Estates, containing in the whole nearly .l 2 000 acres, situate in the baronies o f C or k agu i ney, Clan. • morice, and Dunkerrin. MR, W. W. SIMPSON has received directions from the Proprietor, to submit to PUBLIC COMPE.

The remainder of the estates consists of bog and mountain, atounding with game, a great part of which forms the famous hunting ground of Daniel O'Connell, Esq., M.P., in the vicinity of Derrynane Abbey. The scenery from the hill is grand and imposing. The lands are supplied with the richest manures, namely, muscle fish and sea sand, the former being so plentiful on the coast that the country is manured with it for miles round. The mountain portions of the property excel for the grazing of sheep and young cattle, and might, at a moderate expense, be converted into excellent sheep walks. The farm. houses are generally of a comfortable description, and are occupied by a contented and improving tenantry, mostly holding under old leases, on the falling in of which, a large increase of rental will accrue, and the land in many instances, with a small outlay, might be nearly doubled in value. The estate may be viewed. Particulars with plans annexed, are in preparation, and may be obtained one month previous to the day of sale, on application to Edward Tribe, Esq., solicitor, 14, Barge-yard Chambers, Bucklersbury ; and Mr. W. W. Simpson, 18, Bucklersbury. - In the COUNTY of DONEGAL, 12 Miles from Londonderry, FEE SIMPLE ESTATE, comprising upwards of 4,100 Acres. MR. W. W.

SIMPSON, for obvious reasons, has recommended the proprietors of Irish Estates who have honoured him with their confidence, to postpone those sales, which were advertised to be sold by Auction in April and June last to the autumn of this year. In reference to the copy of the Treasury Minute, dated the 31st August, Mr. Simpson considers himself justified in stating that the present Government are going to work in good earnest to facilitate the employment of the labour. ing poor of distressed districts in Ireland, and in other respects to carry out such comprehensive and ameliorating measures as will ensure order, industry, and the increased prosperity of the country. The confidence created by the contemplation of these measures has already caused applications from English and Irish capitalists for particulars of estates at present advertised : and an offer already received by Mr. Simpson for an estate in the county of Donegal (consisting of 4,100 acres, and advertitied for sale by auction) of within a small sum of the amount which would be accepted, con. firms the correctness of the foregoing conclusions. These ob servations apply also to mortgages. Mr. Simpson cannot help thinking that the all.wise and omnipotent Disposer of human events has visited Ireland with the potato scourge for the purpose of stimulating the Government and landed proprietary to form plans, and make such advances as will improve the condition of millions of the Irish small and other tenants : and that, in. stead of cultivating and feeding solely on a vegetable yielding only twenty.five per cent. of food nutritious to the human g, does not ex h aust t h e power does, the cropping, obtainable from the potato i , frame, they will thereby be enabled to grow for consump tionli conversion of the straw moreover white straw and green crops in all their variety, p ro d uce which, plant. Under the meas ures of a wise Government the unbounded re sources of Ireland will be developed, and in a few ye ars , i ns t ea d of a large portion of t he p o p ulation su b s isting entirely on their ounderf the yielding aland propert a en tenfold the coursel d pot a to the manure o f miserably sub-divided and sub-let land, factories will spring up, and the extraordinary water power of the country will be most profitably applied ; the population will also reap that reward which will sweeten their labour, by enabling them to withdraw their de pendence on that plant which from the test and result of two years, was clearly never intended by Providence to be essentially thefood of man Mr. Simpson, with great deference, submits that it would be presumptuous to attempt the cultivation of the potato to any great extent in the ensuing szason.

SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY.—The association opened six of its lecture bazaars at eleven o'clock this morning ; but the attendance was in most instancy very limited. In fact, up to nine o'clock last night only 187 members had arrived. It is to be hoped that a great addition to the number will be made in the course of the day. The subjoined sketch will show how the morning has been occupied : SECTION A.—MATHEMATICAL AND PHYSICAL SCIENCE. The papers read here, as their titles will show, were of a very technical and uninteresting character. They were as follows : Erman, Professor.—Report on Gauss's Magnetic Constants. Powell, Professor.—On the Bands formed by partial Interception of the Prismatic Spectrum. Laming, Mr. Richard.—On the Constitution and Forces of the Molecules of M a tt er . Hartley, Mr. J. G.-0a the Variation of the Mag netic Needle. • Towler, Mr. G.—On Magnetic Causation and Intrinsic Forces. SECTION B.—CHYMICAL SCIENCE, INCLUDING ITS APPLI CATION TO AGRICULTURE AND THE AP.TS. The list here also was unpromising to the general reader:— Osborne, Mr. Henry.—On the Action of Water in the Suburbs of Southampton on Lead. West, Mr. William% F.R.S.—On the Use of stating, with the results of.A.nalyses, the nature oki,he Methods emplo) ed. Hunt, Mr. Robert.—Report on the Actinograph. Hunt, Mr. Robert.—Notices of the Progress of Experiment on the Influence of Light on the Growth of Plants. SECTION C.—GEOLOGY AND PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY. The first paper read in this room was by Mr. R. Keele, "on the Artesian Well on the Southampton common." This excited some local interest, and the attendance was large. The Marquis of Northampton took occasion to congratulate the Southampton members on the advantage to be derived from the visit of the Geo logical Section of the association. The lecture was short, but a very long discussion ensued. It appeared that nearly 20,0001. had been already expended, and without Penetrating through the chalk the work had been so far successful that 18,000 cubic feet of water per day had been obtained ; the town, however, lraerqgueirre supply p 4 p o l , y Oo w o f l e e b t e ; obtainedand t he b q y u question ee n deeper. pr. whetherThae opinion of Professor Hopki ns seeme d t o b e th a t suc cess to this extent was extremely doubtful ; the well was sunk where the chalk stratum was inclining downwards towards the Isle of Wight, near to which there was a large dislocation. Some of the subscribers to the pro ject pressed the learned Professor rather hard, but he avowed that, if he were one of them, he should proceed and go through the chalk. ' Ultimately, it was under stood, that some of the members of the Geological Sec that would examine the neighbourhood, and make any suggestions they could upon the subject before leaving Southampton. The other papers read were— Goeppert, Professor,tof Breslau, communicated by Sir R. I. Murchison.—On the Origin of the Coal in the Sile sian Coal Fields. Ormerod, Mr. G.

THE UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER. 30 to 50 per Cent. Saved! The Patentees beg to 'call public attention to the following facts, fhe advantages resulting from the invention are various and striking. Independently of a saving of 30 to 50 per ceht„ the com bustion is perfect, and the brilliancy produced. superior to any light hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor smoke, and burns steadily for any period ; and such is its purity, that it neither affects or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have made to the introduction of gas in dwellin:Aouses, to the expense of fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, &c. ; these are entirely obviated by the "PATENT 'UNIVERSAL GAS MILNER." As the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is com monly supposed, it is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for club-houses, hotels, manufactories, and public buildings. One of the small burners is amply sufficient to light a good-sized room, at a sum immeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of waste or trouble. The merits of the " Burner," its brilliancy and economy surpassing every other known light, are shown by the annexed authentic opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER. Extract from the Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers, Tuesday, 26th May, 1846, Sir Joini RSNNIE, Prealdent, in the Chair. " A gas burner of a novel and ingenious construction was exhibited. The principal novelty was the introduction of a stream of air to the centre of the flame by a hollow button hi the middle of the burner. The air passing up through the hollow stein of the button, was heated, and passed out by two series of flrc-hol es around the periphery, and Impinging with force on the flame of the gas curved it outwards in the shape of a tulip, while the oxygen of the air, mingling with the carburetted hydrogen gas, produced a very perfect combustion, The flame was quite white down the top of the burner, was very steady, as was amply demonstrated by the excellent light of the Institution, where these burners have been used. In comparing the consumption of these burners with that of the concentric ring burners, and trying the power of the two lights by the photometer, the new burner gave a better light, with a saving of rather more than one-third." CERTIFICATE. POLYTECHNIC CHEMICAL SCHOOL.—" In testing Clark, McNiell, and Co,'s Universal Gas Burner with one of the best shawdowless burners, it gave a more pure and brilliant light, with a saving of 20 to 25 per cent." GEORGE CRISP, Engineer, ROUT. LONGBOTTOM, Secretary, CERTIFICATE. " In a series of experiments made upon Clark, Mc Niell, and Co.'s Patent Universal Gas Burner, its superiority was satisfactorily esta• blished in economy and the quality of the light. Tested against argand burners, Nos. 4 (12 holes), and 6 (15 holes), it afforded a saving of at least 25 per cent., and against three fish-tail burners, No. 4, 40 per cent. The colour and brilliancrof the flame is supe rior to any other burner."' T. W. KEATES, Consulting Chemist, J. D. PALMER, Mechanical Inspector. The UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER is used nightly at the Poly technic Institution, and may lie had and seen from 11 till 4, at the Patentees, 60, St, Martin's-lane, Charing-cross ; and of all Gas Fitters In London. SECTION D.-ZOOLOGY AND BOTANY. This section sat longer than any, and indeed almost reached three o'clock, the hour named on the paper as the limit for all. The papers read were these:— Hogg, Mr. John, F.L.S.—Additions to a Synopsis of the Classification of the Genera of British Birds. Blackwell, Mr. John.—List of Periodical Birds at Llanrwst. King, Mr. W.—Notice of New Species of Animals round on the Coast of Northumberland. Owen, Professor.—On the Homologies of the Ver tebr, and on the Temporal Bone. Alder, Mr. Joshua.—On New British Nudibranchiate Mollusca. Forbes, Professor Edward.—On the Pulmograde Me dusas of the British Seas, with Notices of the Medusas at present abundant at Southampton Water. Mr. King's paper described some animals brought up by dredging, and found in the pleistocene beds of the tertiary strata. He was considered to have confirmed Captain Laskey's observations, which announced the discovery of these animals many years ago. One of the species found by the captain wa s th e t ere b ra t u l a ce t acea , of such animals in our seas when made by Lackey was doubted. Professor Owen's paper defended the study of compa rative anatomy on the principle o f th e un ity o f composi tion ; instead ofits leading to an opposition to the doctrine of final causes, he believed it was in perfect har mony with that doctrine, and illustrated his position by instances. He applied his views to the structure of the bones of the head, and pointed out the errors of Cuvier and Agassiz with regard to the nature of the homolo gies of the temporal bone. Professor Agassiz expressed his delight at finding that Mr. Owen had taken up this subject. He felt that he could not defend his own views. and promised to re examine the whole matter. The subject of trans cendental anatomy could not have fallen into better hands than those of Professer Owen. Professor Edward Forbes's paper was on jelly-fishes. This family of animals had hitherto been imperfectly understood and studied. By means of the dredge and the labours of Mr. M'Andrew, of Liverpool, he had been enabled to study this family, and proceeded to classify above 50 species, 30 of which had hitherto been undescribed. He recommended the example of Mr. M'Andrew to other possessors of yachts, as by their means and the use of the dredge many most important points in natural history might be worked out. He also exhibited some curious living animals which he had recently taken on the British coast. Amongst others, living'specimens of the curious fish, the lancelut. (Am phioxis lanceolalus of Yarreil.) SECTION E.—PHYSIOLOGY. Dr. Searle read a paper on the cause of the blood's circulation through the liver ; and Dr. Fowler another, on the sense of touch, with relation to the higher mental processes. This latter was a sequel to a former paper read by him, on a sixth sense (the muscular sense, as it is called), being, in fact, a modification of the sense of touch. It was a very abstruse metaphysical discourse, —one of the many which suggest a doubt whether the excitement of a public room is a favourable condition in which to test and weigh statements upon subjects that require calm and profound thinking. Si CTION F.—STATISTICS. At the hour for commencing business, the audience consisted of two persons. Mr. Porter, the chairman, however, desired one of the two secretaries who attended him to begin the business of the day. Subsequently the number present increased to six, besides those three official personages ' • beyond that number it never rose. A report was read, written by Dr. Alison, of Edin burgh, on the medical relief to the parochial poor of Scotland under the former law. Dr. Alison considered that this inquiry would supply the best test of the effi ciency of the voluntary system of relief; which had pre vaile.t in Scotland until the New Poor-law. Returns had been obtained from 40 towns, and it was found that in 16 of them the parochial authorities had supplied no medical relief at ail, and in the rest only trifling occa sional payments had been made, chit fly during the pre valence of some epidemic. 25 practitioners had made a return of the estimated money value of their unrequited professional labour bestowed on sick paupers ; the average was 401. ss. 7d. a year. In thirty-three out of the forty towns in question, no alteration had yet taken place. Of 325 professional men in the country districts of Scotland who had been ap plied to, 305 had furnished information respecting their remuneration for attending sick paupers; 94 of them had been receiving some remuneration, 39 of them an annual one varying from a few shilling for drugs up to 201., but only 13 received above Si. a year; among those who had received no regularlannual sum, two had been paid 3s. each; in one case that was the sole remu neration received during 12 years of attendance on a number of paupers averaging 70 constant, and 13 occa sional; in the other instance it was given for attendance on passing paupers to other parishes, and the medical gentleman in that case had received nothing for 21 years attendance on paupers numbering 44 constant patients. Of the 305, 211 bad never received any remuneration of any kind for their professional attendance upon the parochial poor, or for drugs ; one of these had at tended 400 paupers for eight years. Another calcu lated his loss by this at 704 a year; 208 had had occa sion to give wine, food, clothing, &c., to the sick poor, from their own limited income, or to beg such things from their wealthy neighbours for them; one had known the Session sell the effects of his deceased pauper pa tient, and appropriate the proceeds without paying him. 136 returns had been obtained of the estimated value of unrequited professional labour in the country districts; on an average the parties had been ten years in practice, and the sum total given by them to the poor in professional labour and outlay was 34,4471., or about 253/. each on an average; they calculated the average for each pauper, including drugs, at 4s. a year. Four fifths of these practitioners reported their opinion to be in favour of giving the poor the right of applying to any medical man in the district, instead of being compelled to resort to such as had been appointed for them by the parochial boards. A desultory conversation followed, in which Professor More, of Edinburgh, observed that Scot land owed her poor-law almost wholly to Dr. Alison's exertions. The relief now given was generally 2s. 6d. a week to a single poor person; and, considering the price of food there, that was a tolerable provision for them. Another paper was then read; a review of the Mines and Mining Industry of Belgium, by Mr. Richard Valpy, founded on the report of the Minister of Public Works ,
