PRICE SD. FORTIFICATIONS AT GOSPORT. The new works at the Blockhouse Fort, on the Gosport side of the harbour, are rapidly progressing towards comple tion, and will be of a very formidable description. On the side facing the sea is a double tier battery for 26 eight-inch 1 guns, fourteen of which are already mounted, commanding the anchorage of Spithead ; while that part of the fort which is parallel to the harbour is well defended by a strong tower and numerous loopholes for musketry. The num ber of guns will be, in all, about fifty-six, very few of which will be less than thirty-two pounders, and the greater part of still larger calibre. Commodious bar racks for live officers and a hundred men are in the course of construction. All the new buildings within this fort are bomb proof. At Priddy's Hard, on the same side of the harbour, the powder magazine and ordnance station, hitherto almost unprotected, are undergoing such extensive alterations as will render them an extremely strong posi tion. The lines round Gosport, Portsea .and Portsmouth, u hich have been for some years nearly disarmed, and in many places suffered to fall into decay, are being repaired and put into a state to receive a very large and powerful equipment of ordnance. A new and beautiful battery for six guns, in the ravelin of the Spur Gate, is already finished. It is pro vided with magazines, storehouses, and all the other re• quisites, and is most perfect in its arrangements. Southsea Castle. now used as the military prison of the district, is mounted with thirty-two guns, thirty -twos and twenty-fours, and we hear that it is intended further to in crease the artillery of this important post. Alterations on a very large scale are in contemplation for the works at the entrance of the harbour on the Portsmouth side. According to the projected plan, a double tier battery will occupy the space of the present saluting batt er y, f rom which seventy gulls, by crossing their fire with those of the Block Rouse Fort opposite, will render it perfectly impos sible for any vessel to force its way into the port. The following will, we believe, be found a correct list of the guns intended for the defence of Portsmouth and the harbour Two 50 pounders of 97 cwt. ;17 eight-inch guns 0f65 cwt. ; 15 eight-inch guns of 50 cwt. ;60 thirty-two pounders of 56 cwt. ; 38 twenty-four pounders of 50 cwt. • 36 eight-inch howitzers; and 76 t wenty -f our pounders of 2 0 ' cwt. Making 244 gams in addition to the present armament. 4,,;.1 TEAM TO I T A L Y.

These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, for they tell of matters everyliving crea ture able to understand ought to know, but which information In these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, co human disappointme* and their ways of relief, it Is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully Imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all , by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the like advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation pf our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be ex , fited to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of Cod's creations.

INAUGURATION OF THE MONU MENT TO SIR WALTER SCOTT. EDINBURGH, SATURDAY.—The inauguration of the splendid monument erected in this place to the memory of Sir Walter Scott, took place to-day, and as the occa sion was regarded as a truly national one, multitudes of people were collected from all quarters to witness the in teresting ceremonial. Unfortunately the day opened most unpropitiously, and till after cam o'clock the rain descended almost without intermission. In this respect it would appear as if a sort of fatality attended such de monstrations in Scotland, for it is a somewhat singular coincidence that the thred most imposing pageants that have occurred in this northern part of the kingdom for many years—the Eglinton tournament, the Burns' fes tival, and now the inauguration of the Scott monument —have been grievously marred in their effect by the untoward state of the weather. Happily, how ever, the sombrous clouds which obscured the sky, and spread a gloom over the city, began to clear away about two o'clock, and for a short period a respite was obtained from the pelting of the pitiless rain, It was all the more grateful that this happened at the very time when the procession was about to move from the place of marshalling. The day was very generally ob served as a holiday, and but for the broken state of the weather, all seemed desirous to render homage to the memory of the great novelist, whose writings have added so much lustre to his native city. The public bodies and others who were to take part in the procession assembled in the grounds of the High School at one o'clock After being marshalled accord ins" to their rank or seniority, they proceeded along Waterloo-place and Princes -street, to the Monument, in the following order:— Mounted Military Band. Auxiliary Scott Committee, in threes. Scott Monument Committee, in threes. Magistrates of Easter Portsburgh, their Constables, and Suite. Magistrates of Wester Portsburgb, theii Constabl e s, and Suite. Magistrates of Canongate, with their Constables, those of Calton, and Suite. Magistrates of Alussullturgh, with their Constables, and Suite. Magistrates of Portobello, with their Constables, and Suite. Magistrates of Leith, with their Constables, and Suite. Magistrates of Edinburgh, with their Constables, and Suite. Freemasons, consisting of various Lodges, and the Grand Lodge of Scotland, marshalled in the following order:— Grand Tyler. (With drawn swords.) Grand Tyler. Grand Steward. (With white rods.) Grand Steward. Compass. (Carried by operatives.) Level. Grand Steward. Grand Steward. Square. (Carried by operatives.) Plumb.

Past Grand Masters. Past Grand Wardens, &c. Grand Steward. Grand Steward. Mounted Escort of Dragoons. The distance between the High School and the monu ment is about a quarter of a mile ; and it took fully twenty minutes for the procession to pass any particular point on the route. The Freemasons, with their banners and insigni a , h a d a very picturesque a pp earance; and the magistrates, arrayed in their robes of office, with Prince's -gardens, very grand an d i mpos i ng their respective suites, were not a whit behind th em. Altogether the pageant was a sight. Having entered the lance's-gardens, in which the monument is situated, the Freemasons and others in the procession arranged themselves round the structure, while the magistrates, representatives of public bodies, and officers of the Grand Lodge of Scotland, took up their position on the steps of the raised basement on which the statue is placed. The signal was given, a cannon was fired, and the statue was in a moment un veiled to the admirirg .eyes of the congregated thousands who raised a cheer which made the we lki n r i ng. The statue is a splendid work of art, and is the production of a native artist—Mr. J. Steele. It represents Sir Walter in a sitting pasture, with a shelAle!cra pl tid round his shoulders, nod his favourite dog, M aida, at his feet. It is executed in grey Carara marble, of colossal dimen sions, and the living likeness of tL e A uthor of " Wa yeriey,e is one o f his most appropriate moods, with a book in his hand, and his mind ab sor b ed in deep thought. Atter an eloquent prayer , by the Rev. D r. STEWART, of Douglas. Lord GLENLYON, the right worshipful master of the gland lodge of Scotland, performed the ceremony custo mary on such occasions, and then came forward and said—My Lord Provost, magistrates, and gentlemen of the original and auxiliary committees, I have to congratulate you, this day, On the c omp l et i on of this splendid mouton- at, which will stand to future genera tions as a memorial or that illustrious poet and novelist, the late Sir Walter Scott. —(A pp ' ause.) I am sure that all of you must have ixFrierccd the greatest delight in perticipating in the proceedings of this day. It was, I think, in 1840, that toy pi edecessor laid the foundation stone of this beautiful structure ; and we must all feel deeply grateful to the great Architect of the universe, that in the course of its erection, not a Angle accident occurred—a circumstance, I believe, almost unprece dented in the rearing of such a stately edifice. I will not deta'n you longer. No words of mine can express the feelings of pride and pleasure with which I have pre sided at this most interesting national cei emonial ; feel ings which, I have no doubt, are fully shared in by the many thousands I now see around me. I beg, therefore, PS my final duty, to hand over this monument, duly finished, to the care of the committees, and to the Lord Provost and magistrates of Edinburgh, as a testimony to the memory of the great novelist and minstrel, in whom Scotland has been so highly honoured.—(Applause.) The LORD PROVOST then, addressing Lord Glenlyon, said, I congratulate you, the Right Worshipful the Grand Master, and I congratulate the countrymen of Sir Walter Scott, on now seeing placed on its pedestal, in this magnificent monument, a statue worthy of its shrine. This tribute of a nation's gratitude to one of the most honoured of her sons adds a new feature of beauty and grace to his native city, but the halo of his genius sheds a far brighter lustre over the name of Edinburgh and of Scotland. As one burning torch not only illuminates the sphere of its own brightness, but kindles the latent fire in others, so who can tell how many dormant spirits have been roused to arduous and successful exertion by the honourable example of Scott ? Even here we see how the glowing genius of the poet has stirred the soul of the architect, and awakened the talents of the sculptor, whose skilful chisel has moulded the rude block into the all but breathing form and features of Scotland's darling son. (Loud cheers.) While we lament the untimely fate of the gifted archi tect, we rejoice in the growing vigour of our citizen sculptor, who, by this exquisite work of art, has given earnest of future productions that will rival the works of the most celebrated artists of this or other coun tries. The sister arts of architecture and sculpture here vie with each other in presenting their richest offerings to the genius of poetry, history, and romance, and they are themselves signally honoured in combining to honour him who has contributed so largely to the in struction and enjoyment of the human race. This mo nument and statue, admirable for beauty and durability, I trust will long adorn our city ; but though they crumble into dust, the author of " Waverley " has reared for himself monuments of more surpassing beauty, and more lasting endurance, and more extensive celebrity.— (Cheers.) The forked lightning may dash these turrets to the ground, the tooth of time will corrode these marble features, but over the monuments of his mental creation the elements have no power—these will continue to be honoured at home, and under distant and more genial skies.—(Cheers.) Continents, as yet unexplored will be taught by the wisdom of Scott, and enlivened by his wit, and rivers unknown to song will resound with the lays of his minstrelsy ; but nowhere will the memory be cherished with fonder attachment and more endearing delight than in the cities and the hamlets of his own be loved Scotland.—(Cheers.) The Rev. Mr. BOYLE, Portobello, then pronounced the blessing ; after which the national anthem was played by the band of the 3d Dragoons, and the pro cession returned to the High School in the same order in which it set out. This Ended the proceedings at the inauguration. QPENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or grey hair, whiskers, moustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black, without trouble (by , imply combing It through the hair), and pro duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change ; and it can be incontestably proved, that while many dyes tend to destroy the hair by their pernicious properties and dangerous process of ap plication, that this article promotes the growth of hair, nourishing the roots till the latest period of life.

About six o'clock a very numerous company sat down to dinner in the Music-hall, the Lord Provost in the chair, who was supported right and• left by Whyte Mel ville, Esq., of Mount Melville, deputy grand master, the Hon. Captain Jocelyne, Archdeacon Williams, J. T. Gordon, Esq., advocate,— Pringle, of Whytbank, M.P., Sir Adam Yerguson, Dr. Memes, D. Milne, Esq., ad vocate, Alexander Robertson, Esq., of Eldin, Dr. Robert Lee, Le Chevalier Albert de Newall, treasurer to the Emperor of Austria, Alexander M'Neille, Esq., advo cate, Forbes, M.P., Mr. Steele, the sculptor, &c. A number of ladies occupied the seats of the orchestra, and being in full dress, tended to a great extent to en hance the scene, which was one of no ordinary kind, banners and various devices appropriate to the occasion being displayed, amongst others the coat of arms of Sir Walter Scott. with the motto, " Watch weel." Dr.R. LEE asked a blessing, and Archdeacon Williams returned thanks, after which, The CHAIRMAN, who was received with much ap plause, said I have now to propose the health of our Most Gracious Sovereign, whose peaceful and beneficient reign commands the gratitude and the homage of her people, whose private virtues have won universal respect and ad miration, and in whose domestic felicity her loyal sub jects rejoice. Her Majesty the Queen.—(Loud and long continued applause, the band playing the National Anthetr. Tee toasts of " Prince Albert and the Royal Family," and " the Queen Dowager," were given and responded to with the usual loyal feelings of demonstration, after which the chairman gave " the Army and Navy." Captain BOSWELL, of Wardle, rose to return thanks for the honour conferred on that branch of the service to which he belonged (the navy), adding that the country, he hoped, well knew that when their services were re quired, they were ready to do their duty.—(Cheers.) Colonel J. NEILL returned thanks in the name of the army. He was firmly persuaded that should the circum stances of the country require the service of the British army, they were ready to come forward and lay down their lives for their country.—(Loud cheers.) The CHAIRMAN again rose and was received with great cheering. He said—Gentlemen, or I should rather say ladies and gentlemen, I use no unmeaning hacknied phrase, nor do I assume a mere affectation of modesty, when I assure you that I feel altogether incompetent to the task assigned me ; and sincerely do I regret that the toast I have now to propose had not been placed in hands qualified to do it justice.—(Applause.) In pro posing the immortal memory of Sir Walter Scott, so various and so great are the excellencies to which I should advert, that I feel bewildered in even attempting to touch slightly on topics which would give scope to the most fertile imagination. If England boasts of the mighty Shakspere, Scotland may well he proud of Sir Walter Scott.—(Loud cheers.)- In the spirit which ani mates his poetry he stands alone in his age ; in descrip tion he was unrivalled ; whatever he saw with his mind's eye he depicts with a truthfulness and vividness that place it distinctly before the eye of his reader.—(Continued cheers.) He reproduces the world of feudalism and chivalry, and his readers seem for the time to live and move in a society of knights of generous and lofty bear ing, clansmen of unbounded devotedness to their chiefs, ladies arrayed in feminine loveliness—(Great applause)— unswerving fidelity, and partaking of the courage of the times. We are made witnesses of combats and tourna ments, of border raids, and fierce encounters of fiery spirits fond of martial adventure, and enriched with an absorbing love of country. But high as is the rank which Scott attained as a poet, it is as a writer of ro mance that he acquired his widest fame. No writer ever exercised so great an iufluence on the public mind—no writer ever gained so extensive a reputation in the same space of time. Italy, France, and Germany, as well as his own country, acknowledged his power.— (Cheers.) At the time that Sir Walter Scott produced the first of that delightful series of romances, the public taste in works of fiction had sunk to a low ebb.—(Hear, hear.) The novel was a name of bad odour; it was vicious in style, and questionable in morality. The author of Waverley succeeded at once in raising it to the highest level, by purifying its spirit and infusing into it a cheerful, healthful tone of feeling, brightening the path of humanity.—(Great appl ause .) On the literature of Great Britain his writings exercised a benficial in fluence by the lessons of simplicity and good taste which they taught, never tending to foster a bad, or to throw ridicule on a good or generous feeling ; perhaps the works of no author in any country, in any period, commanded a circulation to the same prodigious extent in the same space of time. The admiration won by his writings has been extended to his country. Those who have been delighted with his delineations have been at tracted to the scenes which he has so beautifully de scribed, and I may also safely say that even his own countrymen have viewed them with a deeper interest and increasing admiration, and as has been quaintly said of his country, had it not received its name before, it might now have acquired the name of Scotland. Were I even competent to speak of valuable contributions of a historical and miscellaneous kind which Scott has made to British literature, I would not so far trespass on your patience. I cannot, however, sit down without adverting to the claims which he has on our esteem as a man.— (Applause.) With reputation and talents which the most elevated might envy, he never assumed superiority over the less gifted and less fortunate. To the young, even to those in the humblest ranks, who sought his counsel, he was a kind and judicious adviser. To those ssho required pecuniary assistance his hand was open as day. Although his company was courted by princes and nobles, he was not only the joyous companion of his equals, but he did not despise the society of the humble but honest cotter. None of his writings are more delightful than the letters in which, relaxing from his literary toils, he depicts the groups of friends and neighbours of all degrees bent on rural recreations. Men of genius have sometimes thought they were released from the trammels of ordinary mortals, but Scott took the most sensible views of the affairs of the world, and attended to all the proprieties of life. And his advices to others were at once mingled with the greatest kindness of heart and the most perfect sagacity.—(Loud cheering.) Alas that prudence should ever have failed him in his own case! but even here the glory and strength of his character steed out in bolder relief. Like one of his o n chivalrous champion-, fearful as were the odds with which he had to contend, he resolved to buckle on his armour, to summon up all his energies, and to vindicate his h onour or die in the con test. He persevered amidst deep discouragement and sorrows to tax his powers to the uttermost, and, in his own words, " If there be a mental drudgery which lowers the spirits and lacerates the nerves, like the toil of the slave, it is that which is executed by literary composition, when the heart is not in unison with the work in which the head is employed." The struggle was too severe for his manly frame ; he conquered, bat he fell, and, in dying, left behind him a renown which will only perish with the English language,—Hii Lordship resumed his seat amidst loud and continued cheering, after which Mr. WlLsor, the vocalist, sung, and with great effect, the " Pibroch of Donald Dhu," a dirge having previ ously been executed by the band. M. PRINGLN then proposed the health of the Most Worshipful Grand Master Mason of Scotland, Lord MANCHESTER AND SOUTHAMPTON. The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock, Lord Monteagle in the chair. Mr. Lea, proprietor of salt works' at Droitwich, examined by Mr. Jamus--Supplied a great quantity - of salt to South • ampton and other towns in that district. Estimated that 30,000 tons of manure salt would be used along the course of the line if it were made, instead of 4,000 or 6,000 tons as now. The break of gauge at Gloucester prevented in a great mea sure the transmission of manure salt to the south. Mr. Mallinson, woolstapler at Cirencester—lf the line were made farmers would use it for the purpose of sending tieir wool to Cirencester, where it was started, and afterwards transmitted to the north to be manufactured. Mr. Allday, cattle dealer at Solihule, and purchasing cattle for consumption in the north at the markets in the towns traversed by the line, said he should use the line, and that it would save him a considerable sum. Bought 8,000 sleep in the course of a year, and about 100 beasts a week, all of which were for consumption in the north. Mr. Chnrchill, proprietor of the Plough at Cheltenham, considered that the passenger traffic would be materially in creased between that town and Southampton if the line were made. • Mr. Hoskins, one of the Tithe Commissioners, and for merly connected with the timber trade of the district, gave evidence in favour of the line, as also did Major White, Town Major of the garrison of Portsmouth ; Mr. Moreley, traffic manager of the Eastern Counties; Mr. Charles Baines, manager of the Clay-cross Collieries; and Mr. Kent, manager of Mr. Endall's hardware works, at Birmingham. Mr. Bidder, the engineer to the line, was next examined— Estimate per mile, 18,000/. ; total cost, 1,600,000/. The wit • ness repeated in detail the evidence given by him before the Committee of the House of Commons, which appeared at length at the time ; in fact, the whole of the evidence adduced was, with scarcely an exception, a repetition of that adduced in the Commons. The witness was cross-examined at length by Mr. Talbot, and the Committee adjourned until to-morrow. LONDON, BRIGHTON, AND SOUTH COAST RAILWAY. The half-yearly meet ing of this Company was held yesterday, at the London-bridge Terminus; Mr. A. Wilkinson in the chair. The SECRETARY read the report, from which we extract the following:— "In the present session of Parliament branches from the main line have been obtained to Wandsworth, East Grin stead, Steyning, Littlehampton, Newhaven, Hailsham, and Eastbourne, and also an important communication with the Thames at Deptford. A successful opposition has likewise been made to the schemes of the South-Eastern Company, for engrossing the whole county of Kent, and thus depriving traffic which h e ha e s y re oofurthline,a and to rec is e eive which it was partly constructed. It is believed that y our h th ite C r o to m p p a ay ed f over the a their podrutshaion o power of affording accommodation to that traffic, to that ex tent, and, consequently, your claim to it, is superior to any which has been advanced by the South-Eastern Company. "It will be proposed to you to sanction an application to Parliament, in the next session, for the confirmation of an agreement which has been entered into with the directors of the Direct London and Portsmouth Company, for a complete amalgamation of the two companies. A glance at the map will suffice to point out the importance of this agreement. By such amalgamation, and the other arrangements which you have lately completed, you will have at your disposal 'very extensive means of affording, to a large district, the mast satisfactory public accommodation. You will have lines extending from London-bridge, on the one hand, to Brigh ton, Lewes, Hastings, and Newhaven ; on the other, to Epsom, Dorking, Petersfield, and Portsmouth; with coast lines from Portsmouth to Hastings. "The proprietors cannot fail to appreciate the advantage: oils position which will thus be secured for this Company. It should never be forgotten. however, that your only title to it is an unceasing pursuit of the public welfare, as coincident with your own. With this view, and having thus far se cured a system of internal communication for the south of England, your directors feel that it would be incomplete without an effective method of foreign extension. The only obstacle to the more general adoption of the route rid Dieppe, the shortest between London and Paris, is the length of the sea passage, and your directors have deemed it their duty to do all in their power towards the removal of that obstacle, by the construction of excellent boats, which will perform the passage with certainty in a single tide. As the powers of your Acts of Parliament do not extend to the accomplish ment of this object, it has been found necessary to raise a separate fund for this purpose by a separate company-- whose directors, however, will be the directors of this Com pany, and the dividend upon the capital of which will be assimilated to the dividend upon the capital of this Com pany. The shares will be distributed pro rata amongst the proprietors. "Mr. Cubitt, the engineer, reports that the working of the atmospheric system on the line between Croydon and Loudon progresses satisfactorily, and attains, daily, a greater degree of regularity; and the directors beg to refer for details to his report, which will be read to the meeting. "It will be necessary to raise additional capital within the present year, for the purposes and under the powers declared in the Acts of the present session; and with this view it is proposed to take a vote for the raising, by the creation of shares, the sum of 531,000/. " It is proposed to take powers at this meeting to borrow 738,6664 under the authority of the Amalgamation Act; and to consolidate the shares of the two companies into a common stock, as sanctioned by the Act of Amalgamation. " The directors have only to add, in conclusion, that their rule of action in the administration of your affairs will con • tinue to be, to afford the greatest possible amount of accom modation to the public at the lowest rates at which such accommodation can be fairly furnished." A resolution fur amalgamating the Direct Portsmouth Railway was agreed to, the Portsmouth subscribing one third of the capital.. The sum of 1,600/. was awarded to the joint board for their services.

For a full-grown, robust man or woman, one teaspoonful of red pepper, one teaspoonful of black pepper, two teaspoonfuls of strong decoction made of cloves, cinnamon, and cardamoms. The above to be put into a large-sized claret glass, to which add sixty drops of laudanum, and then fill the glass three-fourths up with brandy or arrack, and then fill up the glass to the top with boiling-hot water, to which add some grated nutmeg. The above dose to be divided into two equal parts, one to be given, and, if retained, which generally it will be, no more need be given ;if rejected, the rest to be given. Should this likewise be.vomited, a second dose to be similarly prepared and administered. Hot bricks to be applied to the chest, stomach, arms, legs, and feet, and the patient to be kept as warm as possible. The following morning a dose of castor oil to be given. To a person between twelve and twenty years of age, two. thirds of the pepper, laudanum, and spirits to be given, but the same quantity of the decoction, the glass filled up with hot water. To children between three and twelve years of age, one third or one• fourth, according to the age of the child, of the peppers, laudanum, and spirits, with one teaspoonful of the decoction, the glass, as before, to be filled with h o t water; this last to be divided into three equal parts, and adminis tered aedirected for the others. Each dose when given to be as hot as the patient can drink jt,' without pain or inconvenience. After, the dose, if retained, the patient will complain of excessive thirst and a burning sensation in the intestines. This is almost a certain indication of recovery; but nothing whatever should be given either to allay the one or palliate the other, till about four or five hours after the castor. oil has discontinued operating, when mullagatawny, made strong with pepper and chillies, with some well -boiled rice, should be given, and this food continued for three or four days after recovery. To a European, young and robust, the whole wine-glass to be given at one dose, if he is very bad with cholera. If the spices cannot be procured, a strong decoction of ginger will answer the purpose.—Literary Gazette. ------ f CHA Raz OF I NFANTICIDE. —ALLEGED Raps.—On Tuesday an i nquest , w hi ch was adjourned from Friday last, was resumed and concluded by Mr. William Baker, Deputy Coroner, at the Black Horse, in the Kingsland-road, on view of the body of a newly born female infant, the offspring of Mary Fisher, a single woman, which was found in the soil of a water-closet by Policeman Coles, G 126, at No. 4, Great Leonard-street, Shoreditch, where she was living; the parti culars Of the first inquiry in reference to which have al ready been given. The inquiry _was adjourned for a post mortem examination, which was made by Mr. John Hall, surgeon, Paul-street, and Mr. R. Davis, surgeon, Worship square, who were of opinion, from the lungs floating in water, and other appearances, that the deceased had breathed. There were no external marks of violence. The mother of deceased said, that she was assaulted some months ago, against her wish, by a man, a stranger to her, who led her among some ruins, where he effected his purpose while she was in a state of insensibility, and that on her recovery she found her shawl in her mouth, and her dress was torn. Verdict, "That the deceased child was found immersed in the soil, but by what means it became so immersed, whether by accident or design, there was not sufficient evidence to the jury." SUICIDE OF ONE OF TIIE PARISH SURGEONS AT Bnroirrox.—On Monday morning Mr. Thomas Baldey, pa rish surgeon at Brighton, not making his appearance at the usual hour, his servant became alarmed, and on knocking at the door she received no answer. She then informed the inmates with whom he lodged, who sent for the chief officer of police. The officer broke open the door and found Mr. Baldey lying in bed quite dead, with a small phial and a glass standing on the drawers at his bedside. On examin ing the contents of the glass it was found to contain prussic acid. A coroner's inquest was held on the body in the even. ing, when it was proved that deceased had purchased an ounce of prussic acid at a chemist's, and it is supposed that he took the whole. Deceased had been unwell for some time, and in an apparently low state of mind. The jury returned a verdict of " Temporary insanity." Deceased had been a parish surgeon several years. VISIT TO THE PEOPLE'S FIRM.—On Monday, a monster procession of vans and other vehicles, containing passengers, took place from the metropolis to a districtcalled Herringsgate Farm, near Rickmansworth, in Hertfordshire, which has become by purchase the property of the Chartist Co-operative Land Society. The object of this society is the location, on small farms, of the members selected by ballot, and who are also furnished with the pecuniary means for putting the same into cultivation. The company were chiefly conveyed in vans, of which 175 were engaged, which left Oxford-street at seven o'clock in the morning, attended by bands of music, banners, &c., accompanied by every de scription of vehicle, the procession extending to more than a mile in length, and proceeding in more or less order to the destination. The number congregated on the spot, includ ing persons from the vicinity, and those who had arrived by train from London, could not have been less than 6,000. A great many marquees and shows were on the ground, which had the appearances of a very lively country fair. After an inspection of the houses, school-room, &c., a public meeting was held near a temporary hustings, which was addressed by Mr. Feargus O'Connor, Mr. Clarke, Mr. Smallwood, and several other friends of the cause. The arrangements, which were under the superintendence of the county rural police, were conducted with great order. The amusements were kept up till a late hour, and it was long after midnight before the majority returned to town. RELIC OF AN EXTINCT RACE.—A St. Vincent's journal notices a curious relic found on a neighbourhood islet . —"A Curiosity.—An article deserving this name was found last week in a cave on the small island of Batawia, and is now in the possession of George Cropper, Esq. It was in tended, as it appears to us, for a child's couch, and is cut out of a solid piece of wood, either cedar or mahogany, the length 2 feet 3 inches, breadth 10 inches, height about 15 inches. It is so contriv e d th a t w h en no t u sed as a conch, it can be placed upright o n th e hind legs, when it e suppose os a b n re d as land s i o n m g out in pretestsbe pp b e ol i d t r fa el c i e ef o i f vit a h m th an e a e r l m ai r re re s t t e in ly g " on h rv t ed e tawia after insurrection , to be the work of the Cliaraibsbuwelsgthweecrehasraenaterovoferthtoe theirfßacae ' is decidedly not Charaib, having the appearance of a much elder antiquity than the insurrection of 1795. Other curi osities may likely be found in the same cave upon an explo ration, and which may lead to something decisive as to their origin. The cave itself is of vast extent, and does not ap pear to have been visited for a long period." SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE ATMOSPHERIC RAILWAY. —On Monday, the following serious accident occurred on the line of the Atmospheric Railway to a man named John Hawkins, aged twenty-three years, residing at Sydenham: —lt appears that the unfortunate man was employed at the Dartmouth Arms' station, and while engaged on the plat form some portion of the machinery caught the sleeve of hie frock, which drew his right arm in between the works, and before he could be released the limb was most fearfully lace rated in several places. He was seen by a surgeon, and sub sequently placed in one of the carriages and removed to the accident ward of Guy's Hospital, where he was immediately put under the care of Mr. Norris, the house-surgeon. He is progressing very favourably. THE STATE OF EUROPE. — England has had great men as Ministers—Pitt, Fox, Canning Grey, lie. ; but we doubt whether either retired from the public service with a reputa tion which Sir Robert Peel will carry with him. It is true there have been constant wars, continental alliances, and serious troubles which demanded great prudence and ability, but Sir Robert Peel has grappled with and overthrown, in the corn-laws, the great monopoly of the rich landholders who hitherto have ruled the nation, and having accomplished it, together with a revision of the tariff, and established re forms commensurate with the times, he surrenders the seal of office and retires to private life, unquestionably the great man of the age. The new Whig Ministry will no doubt get on smoothly, inasmuch as nearly all irritating questions are in a measure subsided. The query now is, what will France do? Guizot, under the Peel Ministry, could draw together the cords of a friendly alliance. Lord Palmerston and Lord J. Russell are no great admirers of French policy, and will not follow in the wake of M. Guizot. The query now is, will there not be a correspondi ng c h ange of Ministry in France ? Louis Philippe has but one object in view, peace with England and the suKort of that Cabinet for his dynasty when he dies, to secure which he will be compelled to change his men and his policy as England changes. One thing is certain, the present Ministry will not be induced to carry out and recognise any entangling alliances with France, what ever may be their objects.—New York Sun. FATAL ACCIDENT AT A TURPENTINE STILL.—AII inquest was held on Tuesday at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, be:ore Mr. Joseph Payne, on the body of William Lloyd, aged 30.
