It happened but lately. as I took a walk, My ears were saluted by confident talk; The pith of what passed in a street conversation I mean to deliver in faithful narration. A tradesman stepped out and his neigbour addressed, Ills income last year had improved, he confessed ; His business had yielded little more, he admitted, But from long tailors' bills he was safely acquitted. He had visited MOSES and SON'S clothing mart— Fled proved it was matchless for neatness and art ; lint the saving was such in the course of the year, As left him in pocket a fifty pound clear. A mechanic who laboured from morning to night, And planned and devised to his uttermost might, Said his children were fed and better arrayed gloce the whole of their clothing by MOSES was made. ' But this was not all, he had sent them to school, • As learning was useful in handling a tool ; • Yet no poorer had been since that he projected, The cost had been cleared in their dress, he expected. A nobleman's mansion stood out from my way, Its splendour induced me attenlon to pay ; The servants attending would form a great mass, Yet each in new livery this morning did pass ; Their master as courteous as old English days, To every department his own notice pays. When questioned on taxes and cost he replies, My dealing with MOSES all that now defies : • The cost is discharged, the taxes defrayed By the constant reductions he offers in trade, While to every observer it must be quite plain, That in point of appearance I every way gain. Pleased with my ramble, my notes I was scanning, Nor felt the cold wind., on every side fanning ; They could not affect me, from my knee to my throat I was safely ensconced in a warm Witney coat. For this coat I'm indebted to MOSES'S power, To make it, to trim it, and sell it much lower Than any one ever could think in these days, Though inventions improve in a thousand fresh ways. E.

I was not much hurt. I fell into the bottom of the boat.- I found there aM. Jean Strybus, a Belgian, and one sailor. pzed the second time. The former told' me h e was th e only one taved when the boat casi Four other hailers, soon after reached the boat, and got in, but by what m eans I cannot t e ll, as I was so much exhausted- One- of th em ca lled out, • Cut the rope or we -shall be lost.' It was quickly done by ono of the parties in the boat. It immediately drifted totem, when soon after we observed a person in the water supporting himeelf upon two oars. The sailors rowed towards him, and fortunately succeeded in getting him in; it proved to ba Mr. Evans. This was no sooner done than we saw another, and every human effort was made to save him, but just as we got within a boat's length, the poor creature sank. One of the men, Att wood, a very "man '' . men, seoniod most anxious to ap proach the ship," to do a l l he could to save more lives. Some objected, fear g the steamer's magazine would explode, and then tall _ight be lost. We remained, hbve ever, within a short istatice of the burning ship, in the hope of saving, oche -er, I should think, two hours, end although vie -1:6;uld distinctly observe the poor creatures hudeyed together aft, and many on the bows and bowsprit, vvo oid not perceive any in the water. By this time the engines had ceased, When all hope was gone, the moo prepared to pull to wards land, if possible. There were, I think, fire oars on board. We finally lost sight of the ship about four o'clock. I lay in the bottom of the boat in my night- dress, covered with th blanket which I flung into the boat previous to lowering myself; but hearing the men say a sail would. be •serv ice able, I immediately volun ered to give it un e .which.ti* sl, ladle? accepted, at once rimed - lite a sail, and latfilteffe'- he Belgian, who was sitting forward, then offered me a part of his cloak, and two of the sailors carried me , afs for that purpose. Daring the whole of this night one of the sailors steered, as the sea was running very high. In the morning, as we had but five bands, M. St r yb us was requeste to row, but he could not from 'weakness. I then pro posed his taking the helm, and as I can speak French, the orders were given by the men to me in English, and transferred in French to M. Strybus, to ena bl e him to steer as they wished. About nine o'clock we discovered, to our great joy, a sail, and immediately the men pulled with redoubled vigour towards her. She, however, appeared not to see us, and kept her course. The sea was tolerably calm on the Sunday, and the men continued to pull towards the east, thereby hoping to reach the French coast. About eleven or twelve the same night, the men observed a brilliant revolving' light, and pulled vigorously towards it for six hours; but as the sea was increasing in vio lence, they Seared to approach nearer, on account of the cross swells. By this time the poor fellows were com pletely exhaneted, and natter.° could hold out no longer. Seeing the condition we were in, M. Strybus said to me, ' You have reused their energies on two occasions, try again.' I then cheered them on, but as their hands were almost scarified from their laborious exertions, it was almost impo3sible to do so. They, how ever, used another effort, and soon afterwards we ob served another light, in another direction; we did not know what it was, but the men at once resolved to make a last push, and shortly afterwards their exertions were rewarded by reaching a Dutch galliot, the captain of which, who had previously fallen in with the other boat, kindly took us aboard, and at once made for Brest,where we arrived at four o'clock on Monday afternoon. Alto gether, wo were thirty hours in the small boat, during the whole of which a nxious time there was nothing either to eat or drink; but notwithstanding, the gallant Fellows who had so laboriously exerted themselves to save our lives uttered not a murmur. They were till most kind and attentive to me throughout this trying and distressing scene, but the fieeman, Attwood, parti cularly so; ho Eerily bound up my feet in handker chiefs, and placed something round my head, to protect me as far as he was able from the inclemency of the weather. Mr. Gould, who was saved in the first boat,was also very kind and attentive to me after we had got on board the galliot.. Our obligations to the family of the Consul at Brest, and many other ladies, are great in deed. Immediately it was known we were on board, clothing and every necessary was sent ain abundance, and after we had somewhat recovered from our exhaus !ion, we were landed, and I and Mrs. Maclennan :and child taken to the Consul's house, where we were most hospitably received and attended to until our departure for Morlaix. Our gratitude to the English Consul at Havre is also due. He was most kind and attentive, and, when we left, genercusly placed money at our dis posal. I cannot close without expressing my warmest thanks to Captain Smith, his stewardess, and all on board the Grand Turk steamer, who, during the bad passage from Havre to Southampton, ware constant in their en deavours to make us as comfortable as possible under existing circumstances..." ROBT. NEILSON, OF HALEWOOD. The `Liverpool Standard of yesterday says—" We have read Mr. Noilson'a account of this melancholy catastrophe, and also his letter, on behalf of Mr. Vincent, to Captain Chappell, of the Mail Packet Company; and, strange to say, we honour him more for what he has concealed than for what he has made known. He has nowhere told, what we know is true, the prominent part which he himself bore in the scene of horrors; that his moral courage sustained the true-hearted little midahip man in the performance of necessary duty; that his coolness was invaluable in the securing and manallin g of the boat; and that his physical exertions and judicious counsel contributed in no small degree to the happy de liverance in which we unfeignedly rejoice." A aloe- . volume would have to be written to chronicle the incidents attending thi saPpalling calamity, and the per sonal experience and observations of each survivor. To most of them it appeared as the operation of a frightful dream, but events p asse d before their minds and impres sions were form e d w i t h a horrible distinctness an d rapi dity which a lifeti me w i ll not obliterate. The passenger s an d crew lave been received at South ampton with every a tt ent i on, commiserat i on , an d sym pathy which their di s t ress i ng case requ i res.

This assistance was most , gratefully received and acknowle d ge d. Mr. Allen and Mr. St oae, the eng i neers , h ave pro coe eteiheesi company; toriondon theiri evidenceinterviewavoa f will be most valuable, and, it is to be hoped, w i ll give some idea o f t h e or i g i n of the fire. The most conflicting statements are given, and the mos t contradictory opi n i ons formed and a d vance d b y t h e surv i v ors, nut only wi t h reference to the primary cause of the conflagration on board the Amazon, but also in relation to several other important points.connected with the discipline of the ship, the efforts that were made to subdue the flames, and many other matters. To nine of these statements do WQ feel at liberty to give publi city, more than to state that all accounts unite in bear ing testimony to the gallant and self-sacrificing bravery of the unfortunate "it Ptsin Symons, whose orders, if implicitly obeyed by e 0 CretV, there is reason to think, would have provide t... d for the safety of a far greater number than those whose names are given as having actually survived.. From obvious motives We preserve silence upon a vast number of statements that are current, particularly 'as the matter is so uhortly to he the subject of a search ing and official investigation on the part of the court of directors of the Royal Mail Steam Company. Oa that occasion every one will have an opportunity of giving evidence and of stating the facts as they occurred. From the evidence that will be received the directors and the public w ill, it is hoped, be able to form an opinion, first, on the cause of the disaste r _ i secondly, upon what steps were taken, and how far acted upon, for subduing the fire ; and when these efforts wore abandoned, what course was adopted fur providing for the safety of the 162 souls who had embarked on board this stupendous ship. To arrive at these :conclusions we trust the pas sengers, as well as the crew and servants of the com pany, will be examined. We may add that all the unfortunate people who have to-day arrived from Brest have an irepressien that other boats, besides the two in which they were saved and the one picked up by the Marsden, succ ee d e d i n safely leaving the wreck. This supposition con f orms to t h e idea entertained by Mr, Glennie, as expressed in the letter he-has published. we fervently hope that no long time will, therefore elapse fore some tidings will be heard, to relieve the terrible_ and. consumi ng anxiety of relation thole whose friends and s are now numbered . among the mining. sof last (by far ex ceedingi 1,- the proprietors), THE EXHIBITION CUABT.—The enormous circu latioii ofththe most .sa Weekly g ptii nvea t e c x h , p e o e n t a t has rendered it impossibl e to comply Sundayi o expectations with the announce ments previously made , t hat every purchaser should, on Sunday, the 11th instant , receive a copy o f the Illustrated Coloured Chart of the Great Exhibition; it has, in conse quence, been found necessary to postpone the issue of a sheet i s demanding such careful preparation, until Sunday, the Ist of February, on which day every purchaser who was disap pointed in receiving a Chart of the 4th instant, will be en titled to a copy.

THREE BODIES FOUND IN THE Tee.mus.—Late on Friday evening Mr. Baker held two inquests at the Town of Ramsgate, Wapping, on bodies found in the River Thames. In the first case, David Newland stated that on, Thursday morning, about eleven o'clock, he was standing on the wharf of the Gun-dock, when he saw the body of a lad, about fourteen years of ag e, floating on the surface of the river. The second case was that of a recently born infant, whose body was found athwart the chain of the Abeedeen steam-vessel, moored off the Aberdeen Company's Wharf, on Friday morning, with a piece of red cloth tied round its neck. The jury, in each case, returned a verdict of " Found drowned." During the investigation, a juror stated that an other body had been- that .day found in the Thames, off Rotherhithe. „ - AMERICAN NEWS. LIVERPOOL, JAN. 13, SEVEN P.M. The Royal Mail steam. ship Europa; Captain Lott, has just arrived in our river with eight days' addi tional advises from New York and the leading cities and towns of the American Republic. . She sailed from New York direct for this port on the Ist day of January (one day beyond her appointed time, and which; in fact, accounts for her delay). She brings 57 passengers and 847,000 dolls. in specie. The following is a summary of the leading intelli gence received : The steam-ship Prometheus arrived at New York on the 30th ult.

Adqices had been received from California to the Ist December, by the Nicaragua route. 500,000 dolls. in golddust had arrived, and there was more coming by the Isthmus route. The United States revenue cutter Lawrence had been wrecked off San Francisco. Business in California was batter. Serious difficulties had arisen with the Jamas Indians. Discoveries of gold in Mariposa had been made which far excelled any previously known. It is said to be discovered in decomposed layers of slate. Several very destructive fires had occurred in New York, Philadelphia ' Baltimore, and Washington. At the burning of the library at the Capitol the flames were confined to that portion of the building. Up wards of 35,000 volumes were destroyed, together with manuscripts, paintings, and maps. The original declaration of independence had been preserved. The origin of the fire was enveloped in mystery. The loss is estimated at 40,000,000 dolls. Congress had adjourned for the holidays. Public and enthusiastic receptions had been given to Kossuth in Philadelphia and Baltimore. Banquets and speeches followed. Kossuth arrived at Washing ton on the 30th ultimo.

The modification of the tariff had passed the Cham ber of Deputies. Her Majesty's ships Indefatigable, Cumberland, Wellesley, and Express, were at Vera Cruz. The anticipated revolution in Nicaragua had not taken place, but was daily expected. Oar dates from San Juan are to the 20th ultimo. The military barracks at Quebec Were burnt down on the 26th4 and damages estimated 'at upwards of 100,000 dollars. The Canadian elections were not concluded. Thatcher, Tacker, and Co., domestic goods com mission merchants, had suspended payment. .Unim portant houses had also suspended. The New York Money-market was without change. The Stock-market, which had been depressed on the receipt of the French news, was more buoyant. There was a fiiir demand for exchange.

In printing the following from our Devouport cor respondent we should observe that the scene of the wreck must have been some 150 miles to the westward of Da venport; that the wind had abitted after the report of the accident had reached the Commander-in-Chief; and it was scarcely possible that the Hecate, steam-sloop, could have made much way down Channel, or when the wind shifted have been early enough to have rendered any service. There would have been no risk, however, incurred in sending. her; and the expense to the public service, when weighed with the chances of saving one life, or oven of gaining the smallest scrap of information, ought not to have had a moment's consideration. We must say—looking at the heavy responsibilities of such en important post as that of Commander-in-Chief of the great western port of England—it would be much more satisfactory to the public, and, we doubt not, most agreeable to the octogenarian Admiral, if this gallant and distinguished veteran were permitted to retire from active service. It is impossible to bear hardly upon such an old officer as Sir John Ommanney, even though he should fall into errors of omission or commissioo, o should lack that vigour and discretion which character ised his earlier caner. • " DEvorgranT, MONDAY. " The readiness with which the French authorities at Brest acceded to the request to send a steamer in search of-any of the passengers and crew of the Amazon, who might by possibility have escaped the fatal disaster which betel that vessel on the night of t he 4th inst., forms contrast with the conduct of our own save! Commander in-Chief at Davenport; who, notwithstanding the urgent appeal to render this justic e to the, of humanity, positively declined, or at least neglected this, as would appear to every man, and especially a British sailor, k n . perative duty. It is to be too much feared that the effort might not have been crowned with success. W e would almost hope so for the sake of the national character, t o the Admiral; for, et, say nothing of the feelings of though the hope might have been a forlorn one, it certainly might have been fairly cherished, and Sir John O m . ma nney have had the i hi s pow satisfaction .er of w. k o knowing i at t g a that loßs all was done that lay n to conceive whence this indifference to the sufferings of others, ,except in the fact that the Admiral's extreme odvanced age h as destroyed the necestar y ener gy to do what, we cannot but believe, his heart must have sug gested. There can be no excuse of want of means to carry out this proper and laudable duty, as there were at the time sev eral Government steame rs at Davenport ele a vailable. Th e Hecate was l y in g in Barnpool ready for sea, to say nothing of the steam-tenders or the several advanced vessels in Harnoaze."—E m ild THE BLACKS or LAGOS.—It will e be seen by the Lon don Gazette t hat C om modore Bra has notified his in tention to blockade Lagos and its adjacent djacent coast, in the Bight of Benin. As we stated, on the arrival of the Har binger from the Cape, with the news of the affairs with the blacks, the Commodore was collecting his squadron, t an e d vv had st India his Regiment. The next arrival from the coast will, doubtlese p bring us important intelligence of [PRICE SD. the operations of the squadron. The guns of tho cruisers have by this time sounded the death knell of the vil la:lons traffic in human flesh and blood; and th e tor tures and murders of millions of the human rata have been in some measure avenged.

The whole of the warrant officers borne on shock at Woolwich for harbour servieeyere examined to-day by Captain the Hon. Montagu Stopford, acting superinten dent, and a board of officers, as to their fitnesa for service at sea. The warrant-officers were at the same time inspected by Dr. 0. Evans, Senior Deputy-Inspector of Hospitals and Fleets, and other medical officers, as to the state of their health, in case they should be called upon to serve in sea-going ships or steamers. Tho Fury steam-sloop, Commander Edward Tatham, broke two hawsers ou Saturday last, owing to the strong gale which prevailed during the time she was having her compasses adjusted, but Captain Johnson and her Com mander persevered,-and had the adjusting of the com passes satisfactorily completed on the same day.. The vessel left Greenhithe early on Sunday morning, accom panied by the Zephyr steam-vessel, and the engines of the Fury having been found to work remarkably well, she brought up at the Nore for the night, and the engineers of the factory at Woolwich returned in the Zephyr the same evening. The Zephyr steam vessel went up to Deptford on Monday, and brought down the Torch steam-vessel to Woolwich. After the Dee steam-troop-ship had been paid off on Saturday last, the petty officers and seamen who had served in the vessel purchased a haudsome . silver snuff box of Mr. Westaway, and ordered the ample words " H. West. Esq.," to be engraved upon it, and presented it to their late commander. _ The officers of the Dee describe the mode of warfare at the Cape to be very disheartening to the British sol diers, especially these placed on patrol duty. The Kafirs are so active and daring that they venture within twenty or thirty yards of the patrol and show themselves, but in a position that they can drop down flat on the ground the moment they see the musket brought to a level for tiring at them, and in almost every instance escape being touched by the ballets. The savages then start upon their feet and run upon the patrols before they have time to reload, and while the patrols strive to keep the Kafirs at a distance with the bayonet, the latter jump about with the agility of moneys, and close upon the patrols, holding them by their belts while they stab them. The most serviceable description of muskets to contend with the Ketirs would be those loading at the breach, as they would give the soldier more confidence, and avoid his having to alter the defensive position of the .bayonet when loading. • SEABORNE MAILS, (lc signifies that the sails are sent front the General Post-office by the night—and Al by the morning--11 Patch.)

SOUTHAMPTON, JAN. 12.—This morning, soon after eleven o'clock, the Grand Turk steamer arrived from Havre, with 18 of the crew and two ladies, Miss Smith and Mrs. Maclennen, and child, a fine little fellow about eighteen months old, who, after leaving the wreck of the Amazon, had been picked up at sea and conveyed to Brest. There - was a very largo concourse of people assembled in the docks to witness their landing, and on their coming on shore the excitement was immense, the relatives and friends crowding round and clinging to them with the greatest affection, and it was with difficulty that some could escape from the crowd that surrounded them. It will be recollected that Mr. Evans and Mr. Glennio proceeded direct from Brest to Paris. The following are the names of the crew brought over by the Grand Turk:— _ . Jacob Allen ... William Stone. . George Harding Thomas Atwood Charles Lang... John Lamont ... William Goodman Henry Carter ... George Tucker William Lucas John Rogers ... James Berryman Daniel Brown ... Joseph Wellman Michael Gould George Deal ... Alexander S. Ling Frederick Wall ... Engineer. ... ditto. ... Fireman. ... ditto. .., ditto. • ditto. • ditto. • ditto. • ditto. • ditto. ... Seaman. ... ditto. ... ditto. • ditto. ... Steward. Quartermastsr. • ditto. ... Sailor boy. The whole of these unfortunate reple, who escaped, many of them in a state of semi-nudity, have evidently experienced great hardships since their providential de liverance from the burning ship, being exposed to the inclemency of the weather, with insufficient clothing to protect them from the cold and from the heavy seas which constantly washed over them, nearly swamping their frail boats. For 48 hours they were tossed about, hav ing no provisions or water to sustain their sinking spirits, and being almost left to despair of ever reaching a port of safety. Some of the men look very ill and bear the appearance of having undergone much suffering and trials. When nearly ready to give up their painful and almost hopeless task at the oars, the men were sustained and prompted to fresh efforts by the kind and cheering words of the ladies, whose painful situation, destitute of all comforts and necessaries, it is almost impossible to appreciate. The sufferers were received and treated at Brest with the utmost kindness, attention, and hospitality, both by the French authorities and also by_ thejiritish Consul I ,and English residejlts. .41t Havre OW: British residents made a subscription to the amount of nearly 201, for their benefit, with which to support their most pressing necessities. The escape of Mrs. Maclennan was almost a miracu lous one—she was twice separated from her child, an infant of tender age; yet trio courage she displayed in recovering it, in the midst of the scenes of horror at tending the rapid conflagration of the ship show the enduring love of a mother, which no circumstances of danger to herself could cause her to forget. We regret to add that the husband of Mrs. Maclennan isamong the fearful list of the missing by this terrible catastrophe. She, however, entertains a firm conviction that Mr. Maclennan escaped in one of the boats which has yet to be accounted for, and we understand expresses an ex pectation that he may yet be heard of. Mrs. Maclennan is Beverly bruised, and her health is considerably shaken by the fearful sufferings through which she was passed. On landing at Southampton to-day she was powerfully affected. She was met by her brother-in-law, and left Southampton to join her relatives by the three o'clock train. Miss Smith, the other female passenger, has dis played a heroism and intrepedity throughout these pain ful scenes which place her almost in the rank of Grace Darling., She is a very prepossessing young lady, and we understand took a passage by the Amason to join a family in Porto Rico, with whom she had obtained the appointment of governess. Miss Smith states that, after having retired to rest on the eventful night, she was aroused by a sudden noise and a cry of " Fire ! Sho rushed out of her berth in her night dress, but was met by some gentleman who conducted or carried her back to her cabin, enjoining her not to be alarmed, as the flames would soon bo subdued. From the in creasing confusion she, however, thought it bust to provide for her own safety, and accordingly obtained possession of a blanket and petticoat (snatching up the first articles at hand) and rushed upon the deck, The appearance •of matters there, it appears. impressed her with the conviction that Captain Symons had lost all control over his crew, who were rapidly launchiug the boats and getting away from the ship as fast as they could. Miss Smith, therefore, formed the resolve of saving her own life if possible, and set about it with a coolness quite extraordinary. She put on her petticoat, enveloped herself in the blanket, and then, making fast one end of the rope to some of the bulwarks of the ship, and securing the other end to ono of her arms, sho threw herself overboard-with the intention of getting into one of the boats; but, if unsuccessful in this Andeavour, to remain suspended as long as she could and then to drop into the sea, preferring death by drowning to the horrible alternative of perishing by fire. The flames were rapidly approaching the part of the vessel frons,which she was suspended, when Miss Smith, ob serving a favourable opportunity, threw herself into cne of the boats that happened to pass near her, and which was getting away from the blizing wreck; she fell heaeily on one of the seats or thwarts of the boat, and one of tho seamen fell upon her, her chest being thereby severely bruised. She was, however, snatched from immediate death, but only to encounter the horrors and uncertainties of a stormy sea and a furious gale. In all the trying scenes which followed her firmness and courage never deserted her; in fact, on several occasions she took her place at the oars, and helped manfully by her bodily exertions to propel the boat. So destitute of clothing wore the crew of the boat in which this young lady was a fellow sufferer, and such an entire absence was there of any thing with which to make a signal, that she was obliged t t li o c t h a e li d e tooffahneorapreatntidcohaotistiend as s r d a e n r e t m h b e i t i t e n o might be distress s e t t; invite the attention of passing vessels. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. MISS SMIIII'S NARRATIVE. Miss Smith has favoured us with the following nar rative : " As near as I can recollect, it was about balflast twelve o'clock on Sunday morning when I first heard the alarm of fine I was in my berth. I hastily jumped out of bad and ran to the seats at the foot of the companion stairs, and went forward to a gentleman and asked him if ho knew the cause of the alarm. Ile told me the ship was on fire, but that there was not the least occasion for alarm, and advised me to return to my berth to dress. On refusing, he carried me to my berth, and called the stewardess to attend me. She came out of her room quite dressed, but, being much frightened, she went forward without assisting - me. Being to . bein g alarmed at seeing so much fear in others, I immediately took up a blanket and two petticoats, and rushed u p th e compan i on sta i rs a f t . Th e fl a mes at that time were r us hi ng through the after bulkhead. I stopped standing ran ing aft, fo ra moment to observe if there was any chance of the by his officers. Everything and observed Captain Symons o i o r dr ested, with a bu c k e t in his hand, surrounded Everything then was much confused, c te o nsecitrent upon th e fi re b rea ki ng ou t so su ddenly, I undressed, towards the whomw heel,l bel i eve to b wherel saw a gentleman i mme diately e Mr. Warburton. I went to the side of the ship, and seized a rope, and on l ooking round I saw an o ffi cer running towards sn in flames. He threw himself down, and relied over towards use, with the endeavour, no doubt, to extinguish the fire. I then asked Mrs. Scott, the stewardess, who was close behind me, if there was any place I could put my foot inside? Mrs. Scott said, i Oh, yes, there! and ran to the other side, crying 'Save me! Save me!' Observing a boat alongside, I swung out, holding by the rope fur some time, the boat under me having capsized twice. At last, seeing a fa vourable opportunity, as the boat righted, and was again BANKING INSTITUTION. Yesterday evening a monthly meeting of the subscri bers to this institution was held at their offices, 51, Threadneedle-street; Mr. T. Hewat in the chair. A brief report from the council, congratulating the members upon the flourishing aspect of their affairs, having been read and confirmed, Mr. J. J. SRAM read a paper upon the law and prac tice relating to crossed cheques. He said the practice was an extremely old one, and had been in connexion with the clearing-house in Lombard street for more than a century. In proof of this fact he cited a great variety of cases from law reports, where actions had arissu upon crossed cheques; and though the custom was well known, ft did not excite any remarks from the judges before whom these cases were tried. In fact, beyond the custom of the bankers to receive and pay crossed cheques to the bankers with whose names they this chequQ antis entruste d with houthtys wore crossed, it did not appear that they were entitled to refuse payment of a crossed cheque, no matter by whom prevented, - if the answers were satisfactory. It was most important that a question affecting the monetary inte rests of such a large commercial community as existed , in the metropolis should be settled at once by some defi- 1 nite legal authority. So far, however, from this being ' the case, the bankers themselves were entirely divided on the point as to whether a doubly or singly (zoned cheque was payable at once, or not at all. An important fiction was brought a short time since against M entz. Coutts for having paid a creased cheque for 2,000/. This cheque was crossed with the Bank of England, a n d further crossed by being made payable only to the count of the Accountant-General of the' Court owfitohhrueLth:.l eery. The solicitor to whom however, erased the crossings and crossed it with nam3a of his own bankers. This chequt, Messrs. a lc w a: y fell, utter paid, and the money having been mate the solicitor, the parties en vi a° ,3l the paying a cheque crotstAt t o convicting him, proceeded again s t 11 c 0 the account Bank 0 ( of essrs.

Mr. Gl LBARTthenbriefly addressed the meeting, out the necessity which existed for some law which would compel bankers to pay crossed cheques to o the parti es t whom they were crossed and to no others. The kindbankers were now in a position to demand a law of from the Legislature, and they intended doing so. _ _ _ A vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Shaw for his Ice turo G 2 the subj Lot, and the meeting aeparated. At a meeting to promote the completion of the Great Western Docks at Plymouth, held last week, a com mittee was formed to procure subscriptions for the 6,000 guaranteed 5 per cent. shares of 101. each, which it had been resolved to issue, and which, it was alleged, would, with the amount authorised to be raised on debentures, fully suffice for the objeets to be effected. The amount already ex pended was stated to be about 90,0091., and an offer had been received to finish the undertaking for 78,0001. Mr. Braille, the deputy chairman of the Eastern Steam Navi gation Company, attended and a pointed out that unless the docks were completed it would be impossible for his com pany to bring their vessels to Plymouth. He added also, to show the necessity for immediate action on the part of the town; if they would secure the advantages contemplated that the tenders for the second monthly mail to India and China would be decided upon at the end of February next, and that the company, by arrangements which its direc tors had made on their own private responsibility. had a.ld ready nearly completed one vessel at Bristol, and had lei down the keels and built the engines of seven others. MELANCHOLY DEATH OF A LADY.--Mr. WlikleYs M.P., held an inquest on Monday, in the Chelsea work house, on Mrs. Frances Bonn, aged 139, late of Cameron square. Deceased went to pay a visit, in Malcolm-square, when she fell with such violence on the pavement as to fracture her skull, and almost instant death ensued. Verdict —Accidental Death. ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION. Among the numerousmechanical inventions and works of art deposited here from the Great Exhibition are the two prize flutes from the manufactory of Messrs. Rudall, Rose, and Co. These Oates arc con structed entirely of silver, one being plated with gold, which gives it a most elegant appearance. The gold flute was invented a few years since by M. Boehm, German, and this ono obtained the Council medal; the other improved and simplified by Mr. Carte. Among the advantages secured by this flute over the Bates of Beebm may be mentioned the following:—The weakness of the three or four lowest notes is corrected, so that all the notes are now equal in volume throughout the in strument. The imperfect intonation in the upper notes is altogether removed, so that the flute is now singularly ,perfect in this respect. These two desirable objects are so completely realized by the new form that the old reproach of unequal tones and incorrect intonation can no longer be urged against the flute by the most fastidious. Added to this, the quality of its tones, which notwithstanding all its other imperfections, always render the flute popular, is also greatly improved. They are sweet and clear, rich and sonorous, liquid, powerful, and free. One of its greatest aci:untage; may be found in the little breath required by the performer, so that those with 'weak organs, who might hesitate to practise on a flute of the old shape may use one constructed according to this principle. So little exertion dues it require, that it may be played by the most delicate person. Mr. George Barker still continues his delightful ballad music three times n week. MR. BENNETT. The following is the reply of the Bishop of Bath and Wells to a protest which has been addressed to him from Frome, against Mr. Bennett's presentation to tha living of that placc:— " Brighton, Jan. 12, 1852. " Rev. and dear have read and given my beet attsution to the memorial signed by yourself and some of the clergy and other persons, forwarded to me tram Frome, upon the recent appointment of Mr. Bennett to that living by the Marchioness of Bath. " I can assure you, had I not been satisfied that Mr.' Bennett was not attached to, or likely to be influenced by. the doctrines of the Church of Rome, or likely to influence in that direction others of any congregation committed to his care, I should have declined insti tuting him, frcm whatever quarter his nomination might have come; but as I am fully satisfied that Mr. Bennett has a firm and deep-rooted attach. ment to our own Church, and to ell the doc trines of the Church of England, repudiating all Remish doctrines, I feel that "I should be acting unjustly by him, and uneourteously as well as unfairly by the Marchioness of Bath (whose firm attachment to our Church is so well known), if I were to refuse him admission into my diocese. I shall, therefore, ad here as firmly to my intention of instituting Mr. Bennett (however respectable the egnatures to n protest may be) as I should have objected to have done had my opinion of his attachment to the Church been, otherwise. " I will only add, in conclusion, that as you, and all those who have signed the protest, have done no more than they considered to be their duty in thus express ing their opinions to me, and I' have myself as can didly stated my own feeling on the subject, which, I trust, will have the effect of allaying any fears which they had entertained, it is my earnest hope that there will be no unseemly opposition on the part of the clergy, or any of those who have signed the protest, and that Mr. Bennett will be received with kindly feeling.

We believe we may safely assure the country that the affair of Lord Palmerston's dismissal from office will be fully brought . befere the House of Commons on the first night of the session. We can also add, that the most conclusive proof will at the same time be given of the truth of the charge which we have repeatedly preferred agaiad the Premier —namely, that of having, several weeks before the dismisial of Lord Palmerston, deter minedmore than one on taking that step. We are sorry to learn that circumstances which have recently transpired point to i that cate dismissal , position i d n el p th ar e t ought to deter them from mixing themselves up in any wa— y implication , wh osevey y with political intrigues. Bat on this aspect of the matter • our lips are sealed—at least for the present.

A POLICEMAN FOLD OF RABBIT PIE. A gentleman residing in Penton-place, in the vicinity of the Surrey Zoological Gardens, applied to Mr. Elliott, at the Lambeth Police Court, yesterday, for his advice as to how he should set under the following same.what novel circumstances :—The applicant said that for several nights past strange noises were heard in she front of his house, and in the morning it was invariably faund that a safe, in which the cold and broken meat and other articles of food were kept, and which was placed in the area, had been made free with. On that Morning st three o'clock the usual noise was heard, upiai which he, applicant, go,'; out el bed and hurrieal down stairs to the kitchen. On reaching the place he distinctly saw a piliocrean standing in front of the safe with his bull's eye turned on, and cutting away as fast as be coul d at a cold rabbit pie, which had formed a part of the fam il y dinner en the day before. His (applicant's) approach , p robabl y from.his footsteps, had been heard by the constable, as ho at once jumped away from the safe, blundered up the area steps, and ran as fast as he could into the Kenning ton-road. Mr. Elliott—Why did you not follow him and give him into custody? Applicant- 4 should have done so, but I had not an opportunity of seeing his number; and as there were other policemen in the Kennington-r oad should have run the risk of luting on the wrong m an . Besides, I did not know that another constable would take him into custody on the charge. Mr. Elliott —They must do so if you give the party into their charge; Lent your best course is to apply at the station-house, and then you will be able to learn the name of the constable on duty on the beat, and you can then give him into custody. fiseetldo:tthe i r b e e to th; le s e ta o ti h on is - h c o o tr pla i i n nt P b ar efo - r p c, Park-place, Th e applicant thanked his Worship, and finding that his house was situated in the d i vision OT the corer, k I Lock's superin- tendent.
