AQUATICS. DOG GETYS COA AND BADGE, According to custom this race should - be rowed on the Ist of August, but owing to its tailing on a Sunday this year, the contest took place yesterday. As a wager it is the most popular and old-established upon the Thames, and the very liberal addition recently of various money prizes by the Fishmoiigera' Company is an extra incen tive to exartion on the part of all; whereas in former years, unless a man could arrive at either of the three first pieces, his labour was lost, and the wogermen generally made their appeara nce i n somet hi ng resem bling two divisions; or some were towards the finish lost sight of alto ;other.

The distance, it is well known, is from the Swan at London -bridge to the Swan at Chelsea, and as the men moved to their stations a vast number of persons in boats of every description prepared to ac company the race; beiides which hundreds were con gregated on the bridges through which they had to pays, and other places where a view could be ob tained of any portion of the struggle. The competi tore were all started with wide berths, mid stream, just before high water. Kent was on the Southwark tide, but as the tide was drawing tip a little at the time there was no advantage in position. The men all went off capitally stable drew slightly in advance c l ose ly waited upon by Field, Oxlada,.. together, but after a few stro kes Con sad Kent, whowere on &het tide of his stern, and all rowing at a fine pace. At Southwark bridge Constable had d rawn hi mse lf nea rly a length c lear, and the other three were st ill a l mos t scull and scull, with Field striving at a rattling pace for a good second. Constable continued to increase his lead, and throughout exhibited such superiority, as, barring acci• dent, to leave no doubt of his ultimate success. The rsce between Field and Oxlade all the way up was most exciting, and Kent applied himself no vigorously to his work, as to render it difficult to speculate upon the re ! suit of this portion of the race. Their exertions were continued in this order until off Milbank, where Field unfortunately fouled a boat, and Oxlade coming imme diately upon him in the heat of the race, Kent, who was close up, dashed by them, and retained his po s iti on . Constable, who is engaged at Messrs. Neulton and Wylde's, and built the boat he rowed in, won by about twenty lengths, the three next were all close upon each other. The men were afterwards substantially re galed by the Fishmongers' Company at the Old Swan, Chelsea. ST. GEORGE'S HANOVER-SQUARE AND ST.

GRE AT EXHIBITION. TIIE GREAT GOLD MEDAL For Literary and Artietic' Merit has been presented by his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Ausraie to Mr. GEORGE BAXTER, for the originality, utility, and artistic 'beauty of his invention of the Art of Printing in Oil Colours, and as a mark of Imperial approval of the GEMS of the GREAT EXIII11ITION". • The Series of BAXTER'S GEMS of the GREAT EXHIBITION will be completed in Ten Views, and will contain the most beautiful statues and other objects of interest which were exhibited in the Crystal Palace.

He wish e d to k now pending, because if th anyere other c ases o f li t i gation were they i n to account by the pro should b e ta k en for the next dividend. prietors in their ca l cu l at i on The CHAIRMAN said there was only respect to that it vas the opinion of the land that the Company of one o f th e j u d ges (the chairman) believed the were not li a bl e . H e re were now no latent claims against the company. With to regard to com pensation for accidents, adverted in the report if was a question as between mon e y life , it be no doubt that money should and there could be sacrificed ; but th a t w as not the case. By compellin g a compensa tion for accident's over whi c h the direct o r s to pay had really no control did not prevent the recurrence of those acciden ts Tho ugh no _compensation-money were paid the company always suffered greatly, as Mr. Herapath ha d j ustl y s aid, by the l oss o f passenger traffic. It was, therefore, their into well, and spare n o ex po s e *l. rest to _ inure dayslk' menfet of the passenger s. What he complained offwa y s that the principle of the Carriers Act was not car ried cut with regard to passengers. In that Act it was provided that a carrier was not held responsible for damage to or loss of valuable goods, gold, silver, silk, &c., unless p aid for accordingly. For instance, if an accident were to occur to one of their express trains conveying half-a-dozen bishops and the Lord Chancellor, through one of their men making a mis take, it seemed inconsistent that the company should have to pay 20,000/. for the Lord Chancellor, although he should' pay no more than any other passenger (about 2i. per mile). In cases where heavy damages would be incurred proportionately high fares should be paid. The report was then unanimously ado pted and a , dividend at the rate of 11. 12s. per cent. for the half year was declared. then Th e CHAIRMAN moved a resolution to the effect that the directors be authorised to borrow any sum or sums not exceeding in the whole 195,000/. Mr. SCIIUSTRII seconded the motion. Mr. HERAPATH said he was opposed to mixing up the 75,0001. for the Crystal Palace expenditure with that of the railway company. He recorded his dis sent to the measure. The resolution Iraq put and carried. On the motion of Mr. HEELIPATEI, a vote of thanks was passed to the Chairman and directo rs . The meeting then separated. covered in, or replaced by earthen or metallic tubes; and then came Peter Morryss, who prolonged these tubes by ramifying duets into our very houses. Evi dently a similar extension remains to be accemplished at the opposite end of the aqueduct; and ramifying feeders for gathering water come next in the order of se quence to rituaVying ducts for its delivery. As aque ducts are artificial rivers, so, by the strictest purity, these feeders are artificial springs. Constructed, at small cost, of ordinary clay drain pipes, laid in the i usual manner, three or tour feet deep, they catch the filtered rain water at its point of maximum purity, and convey it to its destination in channels equivalent for cleanness to the fissures of the granite rock. Thus, the only remaining element of uncertainty—th e random Sow of water over or through the soil—is eliminated, and its whole course, from the ground on which it falls, to the tap at which it is consumed, is brought under our direct controul. Lands hitherto regarded as profitless wastes, when" considered in this now light, spring into sudden value and significance as waterfarms, adapted to afford us drink, by those very conditions of sterility which unfit them to produce us food. And ea the richest soil in Europe has for centuries been devoted to the pro duction of beer and wine, so now our barren commons are found available for the supply of that still more inestimable benefit, pure, soft end wholesome water. Having tasted and tested the water thus gathered, _which was found delickus, and almost as pure as dis tilled water, the party proceeded to Tilford-bridge, under which a stream of beautifully bright, soft, sod sparkling water, analagous i n qua li ty is seen runni ng swiftly to that of FafilhaEll-00111010 13 , over pure gravelly sand, in quan tity sufficient for the present..net supply of the metro polis (sa contradietiezaiskeel-from %he gross su pp l y pumped in by the ee4eraire; who waste more than two thirds of the whole by te.eir intermittent and stand-cock mode of delivery). This stream, however, Mr. Ward explained, would net be taken in bulk, but would be traced to its minute sources, and there collected by capillary feeders run into the hills, to form artificial springs, like those just visited at Farn ham. To irequiries as to the expense of this plan, Mr. Ward rep li e d that the Farnhaueartificial springs were found cheaply available for the supply of 300 houses, and that those little works a thousand times re peated would obviously suffice for the u 300,000 hous es composing the metropsolfsp;lytheof et . being comparatively less in the second case than i first, owing to th e re d act i on of ectablis hurntch n arg th e e s by the larger sc a l e o f operation. The and soda, attainabl e by t h e S ubstitution of soft for of soap Gard water, and amounting ( accord i ng to calculat'ons based on the experience of Bolt on and Glasgow) to no less than 250,000 L a year for the m etropolis, - was bere de monstrated by Professor Way, who applied the soap test of Dr. Clarke to the soft Tilford stream, in corn parison with the hard Alton strewn (which joins the other a bow-shot below the bridge) and who showed that more than double the soap was required to produce a lather with the hard water than with the soft.

By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., V, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Pm, &C. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, Which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man_ hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, an y other class Of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europ e. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. Lethe Mert, himself one of few legally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of me, ical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputaa-on of Dr. La'Alert, who has taken the most distinguished used: . -- s - 1 and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a suffiel e e n; guarantee that those who may place themselves under his e will, in el Try instance, meet with that del i c a te consideration and-- I nvi olable secrecy which are so requ i s ite in the trea tment of these cases.

LONDON,BRIGUTON, AND SOUTFI COAST. The half-yearly meet i ng of this company was held yesterday at the Bridge.house lintel, London-bridge; Mr. S. Laing, M.P., in the chair. The report, en a b stract of which has already ap peared in The S un , was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in mo v i ng the adopt i on o f th e re port, said that th e matter which was of the greatest importance to them at present was the reconstruction of the Crystal Palace at Sydenharn, and as the whole matter had been fully discussed and explained to the proprietors on two former occasions •it was unneces sary to occupy th e t i me of the muting with any it showed a further observations up on t h e subject. As to t h e traffic of the past h a lf- year, he thought satisfactory result, an d being the first half of the year, it would be u nnecessary to enter into any detailed statistics with regard to it. It was only the result of the twelve months ' traffic: that could be compared with precedi ng years, therefore it could not be possible to enter into details as to the probable result of the year. The traffic for the past half-year was about the same amount as that of the corres ponding period of 1851, and when it was considered that this company gained about 2,0001. by the Exhi bition traffic, and that there was no diminution shown in the traffic of the presentyear in consequence of that increase, the result was satisfactory; particularly as and also the unfavourable state the opening of the Tunbridge -wells and Hastings line in the early part of the year had effected the sons races, - bp which latter w to e s a i b m e e rll ex u t; i t i ; s t, ,xp event the lost 2 ,000/, in having less than usual traffic to that amount. The general election also had affected the receipts, having the tendency of t o r f a t ft keeping people at home instead of going about as usual. The directors considered that under these circumstances it was satisfactory that the receipts of the pub half-year had kept on a level with those of the corresponding period of 1851. With regard to the expenses under the bead of repairs and renewals, it would be found that they were about the same as in 1850, those of the corresponding period of 1851 being unusually light in consequence of the fire at New Cross, which destroyed a quantity of the work ing stock which was fully insured, and had to be re built at the expense of the insurance company. As regards compensation for accidents, they had to pay 3,5001. in respect to an accident which happened some time ago, and of which they knew nothing at the time. It may not be right of the directors to com plain of the laws of the country, but th ey thought it a great hardship that railway companies should be called upon to pay large sums f or acc id en t s over w hi ch they had no control, and which did not result from any false economy on the part of the company, but purely from accidental causes over which they could have no more control than they could over the tyre of a wheel flying off, ore fl Ish of lightning striking the train. It appeared that railway companies were made insurers h.r all casualties that may happen on their railways. There were no such penalties on any other company for what they could not control ; for instance, steam. packet companies. There was the case of the Aina zen which belobged to the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, that company was not held liable for the consequences of that catastrophe, which probably arose from the negligence or want of caution of some ono on board the ship. The directors had done their best to provide the ship with everything, but, owing to the negligence of some one, the ship took fire, and serious consequences to numerous individuals was the result. In respect to the accident on their line, for which they had to pay damages 3,5001., it so happened that a man was sent down the line in a fog t o s h ow a red flag, but, instead of that, he showed a green flag, both of which he carried with him. The consequence was that a slight collision took place, and it was so slight that it did not appear at the time that any one was hurt ; however they found that proceedings had been taken against the company nearly twelve months afterwards to compensate persons whose nerves it was stated had received a shock. From the length of time that had elapsed since the accident happened there was diffi culty on the part of the company in bringing evi dence of a contrary nature to that adduced at the trial. The matter, however, was very different with the Royal West India Mail Company, for they got great credit for; having subscribed 100 or 200 guineas towards a fund, forethetesurvivors, whi ha ieli eyed, Pla-traikav nonatuattittrot.istroredit. , Ting paid 3,5001. amages. There was n . ln 4.--- * 3--- matter at present ; it was the existing state of the.d law. There was no doubt that the reserve run h might be available for such contingencies, but thate (the chairman) and the directors were of opinion the whole amount of compensation mentioned should be charged to revenue, and they bad done so, being anxious to preserve the reserve fund for the purpose to intended. The policy of some companies w es keep a balance over from one half-year to equalize.s that of the other, but on consulting the wishes of the Brighton shareholders on th e subject', .thee majority had expressed themselves in favour of the present .system. lie did not find fault with that arrangement, because, in attempting F 3l equalize the dividend of the two half-years, a certain amount would have to be reserved from one half - Y es (' an to increase that of the least productive half-year , the result would be that people would expect a regu lar dividend of 4 or 44per cent., and in order to me. t t , e that expectation, efforts might be made to fulfil s which would lead to "cooking the amounts," an d tuu a "making things pleasant." The present plan . .tith: s . , simple, and after deducting the necessary amount the expenses, &c., the balance was divided among s shareholders every half-year.

A large proportion of the company's debentures having fallen due, they have made arrangements for renewing them at 4 per cent. in lieu of the previous rate of 5 per cent. From the accounts it appeared that the receipt amount to 648,1831., and the outlay to 669,5641, leaving a balance against capital of 21,3801. The revenue account showed that the receipts during the half-year amounted to 19,6311., and the expenditure to 6,9871., leaving a balance of 12,6421., out of which the directors proposed that a dividend should be de clared for the past half-year of 11. per share on the old shares 103. on the half shares, 31. 103 on the 1hi 1 . 4141„,,,,,6,,p=:;;;;;;,,,,;...4_24,....-_ g a_ nn tit. .

Whilst the traffic both in goods and passengers had materially increased, the working charges had diminished from 35 to 37 per cent. Their working stock last year was estimated at 19,0001., whereas at the present time it was valued at 31,0501. He had every confidence that the dock, which would give them an independent outlet from the Mersey for coals and other merchandise, would be a most valuable property. He concluded by moving the adoption of the which h av i ng b een seconded, was carr i e d The dividends up on t h e respective shares were then declared, and th e ret i r i ng directors having been re-elected, report, unanimously. The meeting resolved itself into a special meeting, for the purpose of authorising the issue of new shares to the extent of 120,0001. in 4 ,500 shares of 951. each. Mr. HOLLAND said the area of the new dock at Garston was six acres, and the cost of construction was only 100,000/. After some discussion the motion was adopted, and the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. EXCURSION TO THE NEW WATER SOURC'•ES PROPOSED FOR THE SUPPLY OF THE METROPOLIS. On Saturdsy a party of noblemen and gentlemen were conducted over the proposed gathering groundl, in Surray, by Mr. F. 0. Ward, who explained on the spot the new ramie of collecting the " hill-top" water recom mended by the Sanitary party instead of the " valley bottom" water. Among the party we noticed Lord Ebrington, Pro fessor Wheatstone, Mr. Belohage, Mr. Farr, Mr. Ford, Professor Way, Mr. Chadwick, Mr. Ilene Busk, and several other gentlemen eminent in science, or distin guished as supporters of sanitary reform. The first place visited was the town of Farnham, which has a population of 7,000 persons, inhabiting about 800 houses; and which is already supplied with hill-top water of exceeding softness and parity, collected on the new principle from a neighhonring common, and delivered at constant pressure in unlimited abundance. Some water drawn from a tap in One of the houses was tested by Professor Way, in corn parisou with the water from a well belonging to the same house, and the difference was most striking. The well water, when the hardening limo was precipitated by the test, looked like thin whitewash; whereas the pure hill top water, after the application of the test, ,remained spetkiing as before with unclouded transparency. It was extremely striking and instructive to see the two glasses of water, one moment of apparently; equal quality, the next presenting so strongly masked a dif ference. The experiment showed how loaded with dele terious earthy master the brightest looking weer may be, and how much dissolved chalk we are thus betrayed into drinking, which we should shrink from eating in the solid form. thetlie pa originator itp Mr. Payne, an influential inhabitant of Farnham, and idence of the Bishop of Winchester, who afforded a most ehdiltlo-tFoparwhahtaemr-vcioarskilse,,hthaveitit joinedcourteous reception, and bore valuable testimony to the r o o f ce i : t d s delicious quality and perennial flow of the hill-top water, of which a email spring, conducted from the common through a pipe a mile long, has served the supply of the castle from time immemorial. From the castle the party proceeded to Hungry-hill, a heathy upland common, from the southern sl o p e of which the supply of Farnham is derived. Incredible EIS it may seem, the whole supply of the town is derived from the drainage of only two acres of the hill side; in eluding two small hollows, formerly moist cad boegy, but Oilica the drainage perfectly dry. This little traet is traversed by one main pipe, of ordinary burnt clay, about six inches in diameter, into which run twenty or thirty ramifying feeders, of abo u t th ree inches capacity. The water with which the sandy hill is saturated (of course by the rainfall on its surface) OOZE'S through these subterranean feeders in an unfaili ng fl ow, the constant replenishment of th e reservoir that supplies s for the town. The pipes themsel ves are of course bur i e d out of sight, but the track s o f the trenches made f or their reception are still v i s ibl e; and they illustrate d very clearly the plan o f t h © capillary systemu ffi b e y i e which t h the pure sue-distilled rain water is collected, immedi ately after natural filtration through a layer of siircioua sand washed clean by the raiutalt of eg"' - r ot water, as Mr. F. 0.

Heving inspected the water in bulk, it appeared desirable to ascertain, by a survey of its sources, that the capillary mode of collection prac tised at Farnham was equally available in this district, which lies about ten miles more to the south, on the outcrcp of the lower green sand. For this purpose one of the little rills, called Silver-thread, was selected, and traced to its origin at the Devil's Jumps, a series of three conical Lille, from the top of which was ob tained a good view of the Gathering ground coun try—a range of high, barren moorlands, receiving annually on each acre about 3,000 tons of water, and extending, hill beyond bill, over more than a hundred equate miles. Litre, ascending the highest of the Devil's Jumps, the party dined cn the gres o sheltered by a curious rock, which juts up, pictu resquey enough, from the very summit of the hill; end thought the repset was not deficient of more cordial beverages, the " bright water-jug," filled from the Silver-thread rill (which was flowing with a most melo dious sound below), wont round from hand to hand, and was resorted to with avidity. So pure and fresh a draught, it was agreed, might be envied by our Gracious Queen, whose palace, amidst all its splendour, cannot yet furnish those highest luxuries of all untainted air and water. Nor was it less strongly felt that the sub stitution of such a supply for the filthy and undrinkable water at present furnished to the metropolis would do more than any repressive measures, or mere teetotalist exhortations, to wean the poorer class from habits of intemperance. The learned professors present expressed themselves convinced by what they had seen of the B°l,e:duets of the views advocated by Mr. F. 0. Ward end the sanitery reformers as to the tnbttitution of hill top for vall”abottom water supplies; and the whole party returned to town impressed with a lively prefer ence of " Silver-thread" water to the sewagraetained waster of thexa antest NI:VAL INTELLIGENCE.
