DUTCH AND GERMAN PAPERS. THE Henan, Nov. 3.—DRAINING OF THE LAKE OF HAARLEM.—W hen the trial was made of the engine called the Leeghwater, all the parts moved with great regularity, and the eleven pumps, at every stroke of the piston, raised sixty-six cubic metres of water. Though every time such a mass of water was raised, the engine was subject to a pressure of more than 200,000 kilo grammes, hardly any shock was felt in the vessel, and the only noise that was heard was that made by the flowing off of the water that was raised by the pumps. The number of strokes of the piston was about seven in a minute, the water was raised to the height of 1.30 to 1.50 metres, and the pressure of the steam in the boiler was from 301bs: to 351bs. English. If it should be necessary in draining the Lake of Haarlem to raise the water from a greater depth, the force of the steam engire may be safely increased by 701bs. English, and by this means the celerity of the play of the pumps might perhaps be increased. At present, taking the operation as it was on the Ist of October, this steam engine is able to raise, deducting the loss, 450 cubic metres per minute, or 648,000 in 24 hours, which is about 45 millions of ordinary pails; the power of the engine may be estimated as equal to 300 horse power. Whatever be the quantity of coals em ployed to obtain so great a power, the expense may always be diminished by the continuance of the operation. A former experiment has also proved that no more than two kilogrammes of coals per horse was necessary to ob tain one horse power, whereas seven kilogrammes of coals were required for the old engine employed at the Zuidplay. Notwithstanding the important saving of coals which the Leeghwater affords, the engine still re quires 200 bushels of coals to obtain the result expected from it. SECOND CHAMBER OF THE STATES-GENERAL, Nov. 2.—Thc central section made its report on the pro ject of law relative to the disposal of the surplus of the colonial revenue from 1845. The discussion of the pro ject was fixed for to-morrow morning at eleven o'clock. AMSTERDAM, Nov. 3.—We are able to state the number of passengers and the receipts of the Rhenish railway during the month of October, 1846:—Pas sengers, 30,780 ; Passengers' fares, 38,430f1. 85e. ; Receipts for merchandise, horses, and carriages, 10,1091 29c. FRANKFORT, OCT. 31.—1 t is reported ' that several arrests have lately taken place in the Grand Duchy of Posen, in consequence of the investigations that have been made into the disturbances in Poland. The pro ceedings against the Poles, it is now said, will probably not begin at Berlin till the month of May or June next year. BERLIN, OCT. 28.—Our.city has been the scene of a deplorable event, namely, the death of the eldest son of the Minister Van Bodelschwingvelrnede, who was killed in a duel with M. J***, brother of the well-known pro prietor of an hotel. The cause of the duel is variously stated. The duellists went to Treptow ; but when the deceased had received a severe wound, and lost much blood, they departed in another carriage. It was not till the day before yesterday that the event became known, in consequence of the increased illness of the wounded man ; unhappily his wounds proved mortal, and he died yesterday at the age of 23, to the great grief of his afflicted family. According to information that may be depended upon, the law for regulating the position of the Jews in the Prussian dominions is to con tain, in many respects, an extension of the existing laws.—Dutch Papers, Nov. 4. THE CORN TRADE. Comparatively little rain BRITI ha S fallen during the week; and though the land is scarcely yet in a condition to admit of outdoor work being carried on with advantage, the plough has again been set in motion, and should there be no return of wet, farmers will be actively em ployed in the fields in the course of a few days. Under these circumstances an immediate falling off in the sup plies of grain from the growers may be calculated on ; but as the millers and merchants have still tolerable stocks on hand, decreased deliveries may perhaps for a time produce little effect on prices, Indeed, something like a check to the upward movement has already taken place, nor is this by any means surprising, when we consider that the value of grain has been constantly on the advance for a period of three months. The excite ment consequent on the discovery of the extent of the potato failure is now in some measure subsiding, but nothing has transpired to lead to the belief that the de ficiency in this important crop has been exaggerated; on the contrary, the more the matter is investigated, the clearer is the proof that an immense amount of food has been totally lost, and that a very large importation of foreign corn will be absolutely necessary to make good this falling off in the home produce. We are, therefore, inclined to view the present quiescent state of the trade as the natural result of the previous activity, and not as an indication of doubt as to whether the advance already established be really warranted by the actual position of affairs. The extraordinarily large supplies of wheat brought forward by the farmers during September and October have been only partially consumed, a portion thereof being now in the hands of the millers and mer chants ; whose wants having been satisfied, they, as prudent tradesmen, feel no disposition to enter into fur ther immediate investments. The consumption of bread is, however, unusually great, and is more likely to in crease than diminish, prices of potatoes having risen to such a height as to render it doubtful whether bread be not the cheaper article of food. The stocks of wheat and flour in the hands of the millers and bakers cannot therefore, be expected to last very long, and in the course _of,a very few weeks a renewed -demand- for*heat may be calculated on. We ire, consequently, disposed to think that no decline of moment can occur in prices of this article, and even doubt whether the highest point has yet been touched. In regard to the probable extent of the supplies from abroad, we see no reason to alter the opinions expressed on former occasions, viz., that until the spring of next year it will be impossible to obtain a large quantity. The practicability of securing millions of quarters is very glibly spo k en of ; but those really well-informed on the subject know perfectly well that such statements are wholly without foundation. From what quarter of the world are these millions to come? France, Holland, and Belgium are buying wheat wherever it is to be got. In the Baltic there are compa ratively no stocks of old. At Odessa vessels were, ac cording to the most recent accounts, so exceedingly scarce as to render large shipments impossible. In' the Mediterranean prices of wheat are nearly as high as in this country ; and there is consequently no inducement to consign from thence to Great Britain. Our principal dependance must, therefore, be on America. In a recent number we endeavoured to show that very erroneous notions are entertained respecting the capabilities of the United States, and from what we have since learned we are not inclined to alter our opinion. At New York the total stock of flour consisted on the 15th October, of about 40,000 or 50,000 barrels. Supplies, it is true, were coming in fast from the int er i or ; but to talk of millions being received from the o th er side of the Atlantic, and that within the space of a few months, is perfect nonsense. We notice these matters merely to point out the real state of affairs ; we Certainly have no wish to encourage speculation, but we deem it a duty to dissent distinctly from these who would endeavour to riake it appear that all cause for apprebensioa respecting t. e possible scarcity of food is at an end. The accounts from Ireland are certainly . net of a character to lead to any such conclusion. The rise in the value of the coarser descriptions of grain used as substitutes for potatoes has there received no check, and all our letters agree in stating that the wants of the people are daily becoming more pressing. At Limerick the high price of 565. per qr. had been paid for Indian corn, and oatmeal had been selling in different parts of the island at the unprece dented advance of 40s. per ton. The arrivals of wheat coastwise into London were small up to Friday, but since then a larger number of cargoes have come to hand from the east coast. The quantity reported up to this (Saturday) evening amounts to only 13,503 qrs. The show of samples by land-carriage from the home counties has been quite trifling since Monday ; the few runs exhibited on the Essex and Kent stands on Wednesday were principally parcels left over from previous arrivals, nor was there much fresh up on Friday. Notwithstanding the moderate nature of the supply, the trade has not been by any means lively but though the millers have acted with the utmost caution, and few or no purchases have been made for shipment coastwise sine the commencement of the week, still former prices have been about supported, and it was impossible to buy really good wheat cheaper at any period of the week than on Monday. The inquiry for duty-paid foreign wheat has been even more restricted than the demand for English. Mark-lane has been visited by corn-merchants and millers from Liverpool and other parts of the kingdom, evidently looking for foreign wheat, but they appeared dis appointed at the prices asked ; and very few bargains have, consequently, been closed. The lower descriptions, such as Polish, Odessa, Danube, &c., have met with more attention than finer sorts from the Baltic, and we should not be surprised if any inquiry for the first named kinds were to spring up, prices of these being at present very little higher than those recently obtained for Indian corn. Nothing of interest has transpired in bonded wheat the idea of the duty being taken off, which some entertained last we e k, appears to be given up ; at a ll events no inclination has been shown to buy bonded wheat in preference to free, and the difference in value between the two is the existing rate of duty (4s. per quarter.) iness Quotations of flour h ave remained perfectly stationary, with but a mod era t e extent of business passingpassing in the article. The m e t ropo li tan bakers have still sufficient stock on band to carry them on for a few weeks, an d seem determined not , to buy more till this shall have been exhausted. In American flour, w hether free or under lock, the op erat i ons have also been on a restricted scale ; and prices have remained precisely as they were last week. The arrivals of English barley have been scanty, and no supplies of this grain have yet reached us from abroad. The maltsters seem to be completely out of stocks ; in which position of affairs they have no alternative but to comply with the demands of factors. Not only has the advance of Monday been s u p porte d , b u t in some cases prices not then obt a i na b le have been real i sed, say 545. for prime m a lti ng samples, and corresponding rates for other sorts ; th ere was, however, less inclination to buy on Friday than i n th e b eginning of the week. The rise in the value of malt has kept pace with the advance in the prices of barley, and the demand for the former has been fully as active as that for the latter article. Though 9,632 quarters of oats have arrived from Ire land and 28,979 quarters from abroad, the smallness of the receipts from our own coast and Scotland, and the belief that there is now very little on passage from the sister isle, have imparted a very firm character to the trade. So few English beans have appeared as to render ex tensive operations impossible : and in the absence o f sales of co nsequence, quotations have remained in nally unvaried. E gypt i an b eans have been rather lively request, and for parcels on the spot, as well as for cargoe s t o arrive, is. to 2s. per quarter more has in par tial instances been obtained. The cold weather experienced in the early part of the week led to an improved demand for boiling peas, but on Friday there was less disposition to buy, and the ex treme rates of Monday were paid with some reluctance. In hog peas there has not been much passing, and prices have undergone no change requiring notice. Indian corn on the spot has moved off in retail at very full prices. Floating cargoes have been much inquired for by buyers on Irish account, and the contracts closed have been at rates Is. to 2s. per qr. above those at which sales were made last week. FOREIGN. We have advices from New York of the 15th of October, and accounts of corresponding dates from other parts of America. The demand f or fl our does not ap pear to have been so lively on the other side of the Atlantic as might have been expected a f t er t h e exciting . reports from hence ; a great deal of business hell been done at the principal shipping ports. At New York prices of good Genesse flour had during the pre vious fortnight fluctuated between sd. and sd. 75c., but the latter rate was no longer obtainable on the 15th ult. the top price being then sd. 50c., or about 245. per brl: The shipments from New York had amounted to 64,042 brls. of flour, 113,125 bushels of wheat, 55 , 7 85 bushels of rye, and 38,055 bushels of Indian corn. From Mon treal we have advices of the 12th October. Large pur chases of flour appear to have been made th ere on English account, and, sh i pp in g bei ng more plentiful there than at New York and other ports in th e U nited Statei, we may calcul ate on receiving comparatively more from Canada than from the States. 'Very high rates had been made at Montreal, say 31s. to 31s. 6d. for fine, and 325. to 325. 6d. per brl, for extra fine quality. From the northern parts of Europe the accounts de scribe the wheat trade as having become rather more on t ts to be subdued than it had been in the beginning of the month.

(EXTRACT OF ANOTHER LETTER.) Havannah, Oct. 12, Eight o'Clock, P.N. At the commencement of the hurricane there were about 26 merchant ships in port; also 44 brigs and 13 schooners. Of the ships swe know are lost, 3 safe, 5 much damaged (being dismasted, &c.), and of 13 we know nothing. Of the brigs 12 are lost, 16 much damaged, and of 16 we know nothing. Of the schooners 2 are lost, 2 much damaged, and of 9 we know nothing. I hand with this a list of vessels in port on the night of the gale, which please compare with your other notes. With respect to deaths, some persons we know have been buried beneath the ruins of houses that have fallen. Up to twelve o'clock to-day 11 had been buried in Ha vannah—i. e., in the cemetery. In Regla 11 persons were buried beneath the ruins of a house, but I do not believe that more than 100 persons have perished in the city, perhaps a less number. Thirteen coasting schooners are sunk, and many much injured (i. e.) on this side of the bay. Of the trading steamers, 2 are sunk, and 1 a wreck. Of 5 Spanish brigs of war, 1 sunk, 1 went ashore, 3 somewhat injured. Schooners, 4-2 sunk, 2 ashore. Steamers, 4—all on shore. The state of the French frigate, corvette, and steamer you know; the first ashore, the second lost, and the fourth almost a wreck. The following report has been addressed by the Com mander of the Thames to the Directors of the Royal West India Mail Steam-ship Company : " Royal Mail Steam-packet Thames, Southampton, Nov. 4, 7 h. 30m. P.m. " Sir,—l have the happiness of reporting to you, for the information of the Court of Directors, the safe arrival of this ship, after experiencing, on the 11th ult., in the harbour of Havannah, the most tremendous hurricane ever known there, attended with a loss of shipping almost incredible in that beautifully. land-locked basin. It had blown fresh all the previous day, and, at sunset, not liking the appearance of the weather, I had struck the main and wizen topmasts, and foreyard. At mid night the second anchor was let go, and otherwise all was ready to proceed to sea at daylight, it being ar ranged that th e ma il-b oat was to leave the ship at four o'clock for the mails ; but at that time the storm came on from N.E., and continued w ith a f orce b eyond con ception until 10h. 30m. A.M. It then lulled, veered round to N., then W. and W.S.W., and blew most vio lently until four o'clock, P.M., afterwards gradually mo derating, leaving such a scene of devastation as, thank God I seldom falls to the lot of. any one to behold : the French Frigate Andromede, of 60 guns, 'tear-Ad miral La Place, ashore, and topmasts gono by the cap ; the corvette Blonde on shore on her beam ends, totally dismasted ; the steamer Tome .e at her anchors, but dismasted and funnel gone ; several of the Spanish men of- war not to be seen, the harbour covered with all sorts of merchandise and upset vessels ; and along the wharfs, instead of ships' hulls, not more than their lower masts to be seen above water. " At 7 A.sr. the Thames drifted about half a cable's length, when her Majesty's late ship Romney, in sheer ing to a tremendous squall, stove our pinnace, but shortly afterwards, fortunately for us, that ship drove a good cable's length, leaving us the weathermost ship in the harbour, and to this may be attributed our safety, for we were then enabled to veer, and by keeping an equal strain on both cables held our own. The baro meter at the height of the gale went down to 27.70, it was then absolutely impossible to stand upon the deck. With the exception of the pinnace, the only loss sus tained is that of the mail boat, which, although moored close under the stern with a stout hawser, in addition to her painter, broke adrift; had she been at the quarter, the Romney would have smashed her. " The Tay left for Vera Cruz at 4 o'clock P.m. the previous day, and must have been at least 120 miles to the westward before the heaviest strength of the gale; and from the circumstance of a Bremen brig having ar rived on the 12th from the westward without experienc ing the gale so violently, I do not think the slighest fear may be entertained for her safety. The Lee sailed for Honduras on the Bth. I delayed sailing from Havannah until the morning of the 13th, at the urgent request of her Majesty's Con sul-General, and with the perfect concurrence (in writing) of the Admiralty agent, to enable the merchants to add to their European correspondence. In this I feel satis fied that the Court of Directors will bear me out, the more so as we left Bermuda at the proper time. " I herewith enclose a list of casualties to the shipping, and also the Havannah newspaper of the 12th. "I trust I shall be excused in stating how much I had reason to be pleased with the exertions of every officer and man on board during the most anxious day of my line ; there was much heavy and wet work in ranging every fathom of cable, and getting the third anchor ready for letting go ; in all this every one most cheer fully lent a willing hand.—l am, Sir, your obedient ser vant, " PHIL. HAST, Captain. " Captain Chappell, RN." MISS BURDETT COUTTS' NEW CIIURCH.—Some months since it was announced in the public journals that Miss A. Burdett Coutts had handed to the Lord Bishop of London a blank cheque upon the firm of Coutts and Co., at the same time authorising the Right Rev. Prelate to fill it up with such amount as he might consider necessary for the erection and endowment of a church, the purchase of a site, the building of schools, and parsonage house, in a densely populated portion of Westminster, which city her father, Sir Francis Burdett, represented so many years in Parliament. Estimates for the building were made, and calculations entered into for the necessary endowment, when it was found that a sum little less than 30,0001. would be required, respect being had to the most ample gratuitous accommodation for the poor. The announcement of this sum drew down upon the Bishop severe animadversions from those who were ignorant of the basis on which the estimates had been made, the consequence of which was, that the Bishop felt some delicacy in proceeding with the matter, and until a few days since, the subject remained in abeyance. The munificent donor, however, determined not to be thwarted in her pious purposes, has been in personal communication with a celebrated architect, and, with the Bishop's consent, the new church, Sec„ will be forthwith commenced, the designs having been approved of, and an eligible site obtained. The church will be erected in Rochester-row, and arrangements will be made, in virtue of which Miss Burdett Coutts will have the first nomi nation to the incumbency, the patronage ever afterwards being vested in the Lord Bishop of the diocese. NEW SCALE OF SALARY TO THE GENERAL POST MEN.—The Lords of her Majesty's Treasury having forwarded to the Postmaster-General their approval of the proposed scale of salary for the general postmen, the following extract is from a notice posted yesterday in the letter carriers' office of the department:—" The Lords of her Majesty's Treasury have been pleased to authorise the following as the future scale of wages for the General Post letter carriers:—Sixty men (seniors), at 30s. per. waelc: one hundred and teu, a? 255. ditto; one hundred and thirty, at 235. ditto, For all losses of emoluments arising from the adoption of the several recent alterations in the duty, compensation is to be given to the men; also for losses arising from the gratuities arising from the abolition of bells, &c., but such compensation is to be reduced as the parties now claiming it rise to the higher amount of salaries now provided for in the scale. As it regards the gratuities at Christmas, the authorities will make arrangements for their being placed upon a proper and definite footing, but it is ordered that for the present they are to remain as they are." According to the new scale, the cost of the general delivery force will amount to 19,504/. annually, the force being 300 men. The cost of 271 men at the old scale amounted to 13,6231.

"Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator. feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an I Is. bottle if they were as certain of Its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above faets.— 3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops on the erown of the heal ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair on children's heads in a few appplications. If used on infants' heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See pamphlet of testimonials.

The Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury having had under their consideration a communication from the Board of Trade, enclosing a memorial from a Liverpool house, representing the inconvenience attend ing the present practice of opening packages of goods imported for the purpose of re-exportation, the Commis sioners of the astocos Department have received a com munication from Mr. Parker, one of the Secretaries to the Treasury, to the effect that their Lordships have been pleased to approve of the suggestions contained in the Board's report, and to authorise them, in those cases in which the goods are to be exported from the port at which they have been landed in transitu, to direct that the examination should not extend beyond one or two of the packages included in each entry, pro vided the goods be either immediately taken from the importing to - the exporting vessel, or if landed from the importing vessel, that they be immediately placed in a secure warehouse selected for the purpose, there to remain unopened under the locks of the Crown, until taken out for shipment on board the exporting vessel ; and provided also, that the contents of each package be specifically endorsed on the warrant ; and that the removal of the goods in each instance take place in charge of the officers of the Crown. No explanatory remarks need be advanced by us of the im portance of this order of the Lords of the Treasury, which is to extend to every port throughout the United Kingdom, and of which the principal officers of the revenue here, and the collectors and comptrollers of the several outports, have been duly apprised, for their information, and the guidance of the officers under their survey in the matter ; its immense advantages will be fully comprehended, and doubtlessly to an equal extent appreciated, by the entire shipping and mercantile trade of the country. The transit trade, especially from the European ports, by way of this country, to more distant quarters of the globe, has of late very greatly increased, so as to form a highly important branch of commercial traffic, and thus afford employ ment for our shipping, and otherwise lead to the most important mercantile resnits, and this liberal and bene ficial relaxation of the hitherto strict revenue regula tions in the matter, upon the reasonable conditions mentioned, for the protection of the revenue, must prove of the highest importance and interest. This Treasury order precludes the necessity for application to the Com missioners on the subject, and it will be seen that how ever large the number of packages, one or two only in eash entry are to be examined, although, it should be remembered, that the practice of requiring an indorse ment of the contents of the packages, in the official do , current before mentioned, is still to be observed. PRESENTATION DINNER'OF THE LORD MAYOR ELECT. Sir George Carroll, the Lord Mayor Elect, enter tained a large company on Monday last, at the Albion tavern, on the occasion of his presentation to the Lord Chancellor, to receive the gracious approval of her Ma jesty. Messrs. Staples provided a most splendid enter tainment, to which the company sat down at half-past five o'clock. There were among the company, the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, Aldermen Lucas, Sir Peter Laurie, Cope land, Humphrey, Gibbs, Hooper, Sir James Duke, Farncomb, W.

The Lcrd Mayor Elect received the warm congratu lations of his brother Magistrates upon his near acces sion to office, and it was evident from the earnest ex pressions of his brethren, that they looked upon the very the es g uiL a n n og t rd and liberal manne r i n w hi c h th e t a bles were set out as a m os t f avoura bl e omen of the hosp i tal i ty o f t h e year lsa y o o f r, office. wh o w i T I l h e e e a cease to approbationbe Chief bestowed Magistrateupon on Saturday next, as stron g ly t es tifi e d th e i r sat i s f ac ti on at the numerous and successful exertions he had made in the same line. LIE ORANGE SEASON. — Yesterday, considerable bustle was created at the quays alongside the Custom House, by the arrival of a number of vessels from Spain and Portugal laden with oranges, the first of the season. IMPROVEMENT S ON THE NORTII WESTERN AT CAMDEN TOWN.—The improvements at the Camden station of the North Western Railway are rapidly pro gressing towards completion, although many months must elapse, in consequence of their gigantic character, before such will be the case. The ground occupied (and upon which buildings for the goods department of the railway are being erected) as the station extends from the Regent's Canal, and on the south to the Hampstead road bridge to Chalk Farm-lane, a distance of upwards of a quarter of a mile on the east The great improve ments are on the west and north sides of the old station, the wall on the former side being entirely removed, and a large portion of the field near the Chalk Farm Tavern brought into use. The bridge over Chalk Farm-lane has also been pulled down, and a temporary one has been erected in its stead. In addition to this, the footpath running by the side of the railway from the lane above mentioned to the tunnel has been blocked up. When seen at night this station, from the immense number of gas lamps—between two hundred and three hundred distributed about in. all directions has the appearance of a township large diDlSUbions.

PORTSMOUTH, Tetu asnear.—Lieutenant William Prin gle Green (1806) died a few days since at his residence in Mile-end-terrace, Landport, aged 61. This gallant officer entered the service in the year 1797 as midship man, on board the Cleopatra, Captain Penrose, one of the western squadron (the only ship at Portsmouth that put to sea and did not mutiny) ; and, after a service of ten months, joined La Topaze, and served on board her three years and a half. In the year 1800, when on the West India station in the latter ship, disease carried off his patron, Captain Church, 13 other officers, and more than 100 seamen and marines. La Topaze, during the above time, was warmly engaged with a Spanish ship. of-the-line off the Havannah, and also with the batteries l in Gibraltar-bay ; and Mr. Green was in boats which performed some active service in cutting-out vessels. 1 When his late Royal Highness the Duke of Kent took his passage to England from Halifax, Nova Scotia, in La Topaze , Mr. Green was i n a tt en dance upon him a s naval aide de-camp, having been appointed to that duty at the express solicitation of his Royal Highness, to whom Mr. Green and his family were intimately known. Atter the death of Captain Church, Mr. Green joined the Circe, at Jamaica, and from that ship was trans ferred, on promotion, to the Sanspareil, bearing the flag of Admiral Montagu. Peace now taking place, a regulation was made precluding midshipmen from passing their examination for the rank of lieutenant on foreign stations, whereby Mr. Green, as he could to un Litt, dmefiorctaienlictyy not obtain leave to repair to England for that pur pose,class f o ro w m ing the w o h t ich orn h in the fleet , lost hi s caedrspreovfailheids promotion. In 1803 Mr. Green fol lowed his Captain (Caton) into the Trent, and after three years' service in the West Indies came home in her. War ha v i ng b een declared some weeks before his arrival, he was draughted, with part of the crew, into the Conqueror, 74, when the urgency of the service again prevented his obtaining leave to pass his examination, whereby he l os t more than three years' rank, besides all the chances which the possession of that rank would have afforded him in war. The Concluder wasone of the fleet which, under Nelson, pursued the enemy in the four quarters of the globe, and ultimately fought the combined fleets off Tufalgar, in which action the Con queror captured the Bucentaure, on board of_which was the French Commander-in-Chief, and Mr. Green was in the command of boats which were twice sunk in the at tempt to take that precious prize in tow. For his ser vices on that day Mr. Green was selected by his Captain . (Israel Pellew) as having merited the rank of Lieute nant, which he received, and was appointectto the For midable, one of the Channel fleet, and for some time the flag-ship of Lord St. Vincent, the Commander in-Chief. In 1807 Lieutenant Green was appointed, at the intercession of the Duke of Kent, to the Decade frigate, a Second Lieutenant, and soon after to the Eurydice frigate, as First Lieutenant, having then been eleven years afloat in active service. The Eury dice was employed, during the American embargo, in the year 1808, as a ship of observation on the Ameri can lines adjoining Nova Scotia ; and Lieutenant Green having, whilst on this service, and previously, when in the Conqueror, in the Mediterranean, attentively observed the construction and equipment of the American navy, made notes of them, and sub mitted them to Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren, the 1 Commander-in-Chief at Halifax, suggesting the expe diency of some change in the mode of construction and armament, and in the discipline of the crews of the Bri tish ships, in order that they might cope with the enemy' on equal terms. In 1811 Lieutenant Green, again through the kindness of the Duke of Kent, was appointed to the command of the brig Resolute, 14, when he put in practice his mode of training the crew, to the entire satisfaction of the Admiralty, who ordered the experiment, and devoted the Resolute for the pur poses of the trial, whereby her commander lost the chance of distinguishing himself and of prize -money, . in consideration of which the Admiral held out to him the most favourable prospects of the favour of the Board of Admiralty. While in the Resolute, he trained all the men under his command to the sword and gun exercise, rendering them efficient for war service, and suggested to the Admiralty the advantage to the service of training men to arms on board guard and receiving ships after the plan he had adopted, which was universally adopted in the service. Lieut. Green afterwards made several very valuable suggestions, for which he repeatedly re ceived the thanks of the Admiralty, and invented several improved kinds of fitting, &c., which are still in use in the navy. On paying off the Re. 1 solute, in 1815, the Duke of Kent applied for Lieutenant Green's promotion, when Lord Melville, then First Lord of the Admiralty, replied, " Owing to the navy being reduced to a peace establishment, pro motion is for the present at an end." The public im portance attached to Lieutenant Green's plan for lower ing and fidding topmasts is shown in the endeavours which were made by Sir Robert Seppings, then Surveyor of the Navy, to improve en it, and in the award of the Navy Board of 5,0001. to Mr. Ketch fbr an imitation submitted long after Lieutenant Green's model had been before that Board, and which, had this prior claim re ceived attention, would in justice have obtained such reward for him; his prior right was distinctly acknow ledged by the Solicitor to the Admiralty, Lieutenant Green having regularly entered his caveat at the office of patents. He also invented a tiller for a disabled rudder, which was tried and adapted in the navy. In 1829 (having in the interval entirely employed his time to improvements connected with the navy) the deceased was appointed to a Falmouth packet as a re ward for his services, with an assurance from the Ad miralty that it was a life appointment, in consideration of which he resigned his claims to promotion and a lucrative situation in a mercantile firm. At the end of two years and ten months, however, his vessel requiring repair, she was paid off, and although others in a similar situation were re-appointed, the deceased was neglected, and no further notice taken of him, not withstanding the assurance of the Admiralty that his ap po:ntment was for life. From this • time until 1342 Lieu tenant Green remained unnoticed; at that date an ap pointment as Lieutenant of the Victory was given him, and he was quartered in the Blanche frigate, in this harbour. At the expiration of twelve months, however, from some cause unexplained, the gallant deceased was deprived of his appointment, and from that time until his death ho remained unrewarded and neglected, but still devoting his time to the maturing of inventions for the improvement of that service in which he had been so ill-treated. He died at the age of 61, more from the want of the common necessaries of life than from decay of nature, and has left a widow and seven daughters, to exist (if they can) upon the pitiful pension of a lieute nant (501. per annum)—a lieutenant 41 years. The eldest son of the gallant deceased is a medical student, not passed the hospitals, his late father's means not having permitted him to devote the money necessary for that purpose; the second son is Mr. John Green, of the Victory, clerk, not passed for the rank of paymaster and purser; and the youngest son, Mr. Gilbert Elliot Green, is a master's assistant of the Hibernia, 100, flag-ship of Vice-Admiral Sir W. Parker in the Mediterranean. We hope the publication of these facts will be the means of • obtaining from the Government some remuneration to the widow and family adequate to services rendered to his country by the gallant deceased.— Times.

Though she pressed him to consult a doctor, and said, inform his relatives of his condition, he would never do so. On Wednesday morning week, as he answered in a very singular voice as she called him at his bedroom door, she was induced to enter his room, and found that he had cut his throat. She sent for Dr. Lynch, of Far. ringdon-street, who sewed up the wound, and ordered deceased's removal to that hospital. Mr. Liddle, a gen tleman residing in Trinity-square, Southwark, said he was uncle to deceased, who formerly kept a tavern( t Hull. lle was dissipated and proud, and hence chiefly his failure in business. Deceased had addressed a lettot to witness, saying, " when you next hear of me, I she 1 be no more, and I trust that you will not allow the parisi to bury me."
