Such charming dress I view superior In all that it displays ; For, oh it places as inferior The Dress of other Days. JAMES DANIELL, Secretary, FOR STOPPING DECAYED TEETH, No dress can equal that of MOSES In any one respect, A novel fashion it discloses Without the least defect. MOSES and SON'S fam'd Mart can rival Whate'er the trade displays ; And no one seeks for a revival Of the dress of other days. The workmanship and cloth together I've always found the beet, And, wear them in the roughest weather, You'll find they stand the test. With facts like these I often wonder Patronised by her Majesty, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent.

The thousands of individuals who fcr 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 simply combing it through the hair), and pro duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change ; and it can be incontestibly 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.

The Polish Literary Society at Paris, of which Prices Czartorvski is President, held its annual meeting on the 29th of November, to commemorate the anniversary of the Polish revolution. The speech delivered by the Prince on the occasion was listened to with the deepest interest by a numerous auditory. We quote from it the following extracts : " Evils of the most dreadful nature, formerly unknown to Poland, and the development of which has been as rapid as alarming, weigh, and will yet long weigh upon our unfortunate country. It is the duty of every Pole to interrogate his conscience that he may ascertain whether he may not have to reproach himself with having contri buted to them. It is true that to myself, as well as to many of my countrymen here present, the last insurrec tion was an unforeseen event. If, therefore, at the first moment believing that it could be no other than a national movement, we interested ourselves in it, our conduct was only that of every good soldier who at the first report of the cannon desires only to fly to the as sistance of his brethren, without asking what are the chances of the struggle, or who are the chiefs that direct it. Ido not repent of my conduct at that time, although it bas been taxed by some with imprudence and precipi tation, whilst others hare continued to accuse me of a constant opposition to every decisive measure in favour of my country. I obeyed a sincere, upright, and national feeling. The thought which governed me during those days of irresistible emotion was the thought of my whole life —my words were the repetition of those which I have so often uttered in your presence. The sad truth too soon appeared to change the nature of our emotions. No sooner did it transpire than it convinced even those who were the least disposed to recognise it, that it is not by such insurrections that our country can be res cued, and proved to me that I was right in constantly pointing out and advising other combinations a n d a wholly different view in order to render the idea of a national movement compatible with any chance of suc able to of duration cess. I refrain from recalling here the causes which de p rived th or movementr success. From in the February of moment a all probability wa s un inspire the nation with confidence, it could have no other result than to devote numerous victims to a frightful death, or to the rigours of a no less formidable captivity. On witnessing these unheard-of disasters, which the darkest anticipations could never have imagined, we were constrained to admit that the country would pass severe judgment on those who had so inconsiderately excited such commotions. It is painful to draw a pic ture of the actual situation of Poland from the accounts furnished by terror or malevolence. Nevertheless, I feel that a rigorous duty imposes on me the obligation of re producing here some portions of it. If any truths are rendered apparent by it, it is desirable that they should be known; and no one, neither the prejudiced nor the power ful, will have cause to resent them. The horrible catas trophes in a Polish province, and the easy victory which accompanied them, so far from awakening any genero sity in our adversaries, have been the means of entailing over the whole extent of Poland an unlimited increase of insulting severity. Everywhere the law is either suspended or unjustly enforced, neither age, nor sex, nor virtue prove a shield against the merciless measures of our triumphant enemies, who, to crown our miseries, affect to repeat that certain Poles, blinded by pernicious doctrines, have by their fatal lessons, themselves ex cited furious bands to prey upon their country. It is but too true that in our villages hostile voices have been heard to proclaim that our ancient Polish principles, so fraternal and so Christian, are no longer obligatory nor sacred, thus exciting the evil passions which abound in the heart of man. If, in truth, there are Poles who per suaded themselves that impious doctrines, subversive of every social tie, could be momentarily beneficial to the cause of liberty, and who thought that the object would justify the means, they committed a fault, the results of which ought to penetrate them with deep and bitter repentance. We ought to pity these men whilst we condemn them. It is our enemies whom they have un consciously served ; our enemies, whose work of demo ralisation and destruction undertaken against a whole nation, they have supported, and the brutal force, im pelled in various directions, has turned itself against the quarter where the hope of reward and impunity seemed most secure. Let us never forget that a popula tion can only be animated to the defence of its coun try by the idea of duty—the appeal to some generous sentiment—and not by mere avidity for material advan tages, or the acquisition of such by violence. After our late deplorable experience, no Pole who should continue to promote the application of these same principles could plead any excuse for his conduct, and his country would have a right to inelndo him in the maledic tions she bestowed on her executioners. Every ono of us is bound by his duty to his country and himself, and at the risk of being drawn into the most criminal acts against our unhappy country, to repel these exaggerated doctrines, in which the real meaning and truth of things disappears beneath the vagueness and emphasis of gene ralities. Doctrines everywhere dangerous, but for Poland, fatal The Powers which divided Poland amongst themselves, acknowledged i n congress before assembled Europe that this partition was a crime which demanded reparation. But this noble avowal did not save them from the usual consequences of a first fault. They have not faithfully executed the treaty they signed ; they have violated it, and Europe, who signed it with them, has not resented the violation; they have been drawn into a series of unjust acts, which, sad to say, have ended in seriously shaking, throughout the country abandoned to their dominion, tho very princi ples of property and the moral consequences attached to it, as ss ell as the religious principles which were the glory of Poland. The Governments to which we are submitted will some day have to repent that in the exe cution of a praiseworthy idea—that of assuring landed property to the peasants—they did not employ the equitable form of voluntary agreement, in which the proprietors would spontaneously and generously have made the sacrifices required for the public welfare. They preferred to exercise their arbitrary power, by taking forcibly from some in order to give to others. The effect of this violent measure, as also of all those which followed it, was to loosen the moral tie between the various classes of society, and to substitute for it the germs of perpetual distrust, disunion, and hatred. In that part of Poland which is under the Prussian rule, where the peasants have already, for several years, re ceived territorial possessions in this manner—the occu piers of the cottages, the labourers on the farms, are preparing to exact similar gifts as soon as they perceive a favourable opportunity. If, say they very logically, the Government took a. portion of the estates of the landowners to 'give to the farmers of that period, why should they not take more now in order to gratify those who have as yet no possessions? Thus, by a necessary consequence of causes and effects, and no doubt against the will and anticipations of these Governments, the sanctity of the right of property, the essential basis of all human society, which, without it, would present only scenes of confusion and robbery, has been sapped and weakened in our country by the very persons whose duty and self-interest made it incumbent on them to protect it most efficaciously. Hence the order and tran quillity which they pretend to have re- established in Poland are but in semblance; trouble and confusion reign in fact in the ideas and consciences of the inhabi tants. Poland, placed between two violent forces, whilst the soil trembles bene a th h er f ee t, b e h o ld s a bloody sword raised over her head. Does not this state of things, in such flagrant contradiction cf treaties, if they may be remembered, and of all European nations, and formidable also to civil society in general, de mand the attention of all the Governments concerned in them, as well as of all nations having at heart the progress of civilisation, and unwilling to see it any where retrograding towards barbarism? I have pour trayed in darkened colours the social position of our country, in order the better to indicate the sources whence we may derive our means of support, and our grounds of security and hope. The question is a grave and diffi cult one. It has appeared to me that to discuss it pro fitably for us, it is necessary to abstract myself from all thought of the present, and like the future historian of the agitations of a nation which seemed to behold its approaching destruction, to deliver with respect to its situation and its chances of regeneration an opinion as free as may be possible from personal prejudice and the impressions of the moment. In this isolated state of mind I proposed to myself to review the different ideas and the antagonistic opinions which are clashing amongst us, the opinions of the desperate and of the impatient, of those whom discouragement seems to annihilate, and of those whose temerity rejects all prudence. I would have compared these different opinions, I would have appre ciated them, and have endeavoured to reconcile them, and to draw from the investigation the practical conse quences best adapted to our situation. But I remem bered how and by whom my words were to be criti cised; I feared that they might hurt labours the most noble as well as the most innocent, that they might be injurious to inure than one indi vidual; and I preferred to remain silent with respect to the conclusions my meditations might have suggested. I shall, therefore, restrict myself in the name of a fu turity, perhaps not far distant, that to amend and to hope befits every nation that has fallen into misfortune, and that it is on these conditions alone that it can realise the work of its regeneration and restoration. There were yet in that nation, it will be said some day, ardent and sincere hearts, and honest agriculturists.

Whilst they thus unmasked themselves, and broke, without respect for solemn treaties, and without consideration of other States, the pact of Euro; e, God permitted, in order that their conduct might appear yet more odious, that great examples of moderation, equity, and respect for rights patrick to the desolate house. The liberal benevolence of the good priest provided the means of interment for Carthy's remains ; and, before we left the place, the re citals of misery and sickness, and famine, that rung in our fears, were melancholy and distressing to a dogree that.' could not previously imagine."

Drrnesse DEC. 2.—The Young Irelenders are to have a grand review this evening in the round-room of the Rotunda. Mr. Smith O'Brien was expected to have reached town this morning, for the purpose of taking part in the proceedings, but I understand is has been intimated to the Committee, that it would be incon venient for the Hon. Gentleman to leave home at present. Messrs. Magher, Doheney, Barry, and others, are to at tend and speak; and as the party are every day obtain ing new recruits, it is very likely that th e muster will be a strong one. MORE DEATHS FROM STARVA TION. By u h ld appear a begin ning to affect the poorer class of far mers and t e provincialthat the papersse scarcity ty o receivedf i s wo this m orn i ng i t provision s house holders, while the labourer's condition is every day becoming worse and worse. You have already the verdict of the Skibbereen jury before you, testifying to the melancholy fact of four human beings having died of starvation, and I regret to say, that at Corbetstown, in the county of Kilkenny, an inquest was held on Sunday last, from which it appeared that a woman and three young children, whose bodies were found on the pre ceding Saturday in a dyke on the road-side, were at the period of their decease, if not in actual want, at least in a state bordering on starvation. The bodies were brought to a house on the road-side, the nearest that could be procured, by the police—they presented a truly heart rending spectacle, partially covered with filthy rags saturated with mud, and frozen, having been exposed to the inclemency of the weather. The hand of one child, and part of the foot of another, had been devoured pro bably by rats. Dr. Gwydir, of Freshford, made a minute post mertent examination of the bodies of the mother and eldest daughter, and a child about nine years old. The Doctor was unable to detect in the stomach or the bowels of the mother a trace of food having entered for more than twenty hours before death. The child's stomach contained a very small quantity of half-digested potatoes. The following was the verdict of the jury:—" We find that deceased and her three children's deaths were caused by drowning, and we find from the post mortem ex aminations made by Doctor Gwydir on two of the bodies, that they were in a state of hunger bordering on star vation, but how the bodies came into the dyke of water, whether by accident or design on the part of the mother we have no evidence to show." ANOTHER DEATH FROM DESTITUTION. An inquest was held in the workho use of Kil kenny, on Monday last, on the body of an aged pauper, named Farrell, wken, after a long and patient investigation, the jury found the following verdict;—" We find that the deceased was received into this house on Wednesday last, and admitted to its relief by the Board of Guardians on the following day. That the said deceased was aged, and that we (the Jury) believe his death to have been the result of age, privation, and hardship. That it ap pears to have been the practice of this house, that per sons admitted do not receive their dinners till after the sitting of the Board. That the deceased was fasting from nine that morning to six, at which time he was un able to partake of his dinner, and then died in the act of being carried thereto. That we (the jury) request the Coroner to write to the Board, that permission be given to the master to give food to a person so circumstanced as the deceased was." ANOTHER DEATH FROM STARVATION. An inquest was held on Saturday last at Glandore, county Cork, on the body of Andrew Barry, who was reported to have died of starvation. Among the witnesses produced was the wife of the deceased, who swore that on the Sunday previous to his death they had but three or four turnips for herself, deceased, and three children, and on the Monday bad about four or five quarts of meal, which she got from her sister's children, on which they lived till Wednesday morning ; on that morning witness's daughter got some broth at Mr. Barry's, of Glandore House, aud from that to her husbands death (the Sunday night following) had nothing to support her family but some broth and tur nips, and the last three days previous to his death Mr. Barry gave him work on the Ross and Glandore line, but he was scarcely able to work, but for which he got wages. Dec e a se d was working on the road in a dying state from want of food. The Jury found that the "deceased died from want of food." STATE OF THE SOUTH. The Tipperary Vindicator received this morning, gives the following fearful account of the state of things, in Tipperary and the adjoining districts We continue to receive most clistressing accounts from several dis tricts. Indeed the condition of the people is frightful. We would point attention to the letters of correspon dents, including two from respected clergymen who reside at considerable distance from each other. Yes terday about seventy unemployed labourers proceeded through the streets of Nenagh, and entered bakers' shops in quest of food. Famine was in their looks. They were snpplied with bread from the bakeries of several persons in the same business. Whilst immense sums of unexpended money presented for are placed to the credit of electoral divisions, and whilst distress and destitution alarmingly prevail, what wonder that there should be discontent and crime P—We protest that the patience and forbearance of the poor under the circumstances, are wonderful to contemplate ; and between the Board of Works and their subordinates and the Presentment Ses sions, it is almost difficult to:pronounce where the crying and grievous fault lies. A King's County Correspondent asserts, that in that county nothing can equal the hor rible condition to which the people are reduced, particu larly in the mountainous district. In the neighbour hood of Kinnety, though the Presentment Sessions was held on the 28th of September, no public works, w e un derstand, have been yet undertaken except some rnisere ble hills or footpaths, affording employment only to a mere fraction of the dying poor. Great God I how long is this system to be permitted ? Is this decimation to effect its worst, or are the people to be driven into the arms of despair, and consequently of reckless violence ? To augment their manifold misfortunes, fever has broken out amongst them in several places ; and the burning visitation of a pestilential disease is hurrying thousands to their graves 1" ANOTHER DEATH FROM STARVATION AT SEIRBEnEENr. The special reporter of the Cork Examiner, instructed t o proceed to Skibberreen, and report as to th e state of ' affairs in that locality, writing under the date o f S unday night, says ; "I had scarcely got off the coach to change I h my clothes after a bleak morning's drive, when eard a p erson in the hotel say, Theres ' a poor man died this mi nute in High-street,went starred to death. , ' I to the de so l ate- he lay and there the p oor v i ctim looking cabin where extended on an earthen floo r , was wr a p t of gaunt famine, no waking.' His nam e „ in that sleep which knows from the parish of "'— Charles Carthy—he had come other P Abbey into the town to seek relief, when alle .1)1 11°Pe was ex hausted. Last night (Saturday) se thes' fearin g to trespass on a stranger's assistance, .ungry, was _ refuge in a worn, broken-hearted man, sought wake house,' wLere candles gleamed by the side of the dead. As the day a d v anced the cravings of nature impell e d him forth from that house of mourning, and he entered the humble cabin of one Hooly, a carman in High-street. He was then merely able to ask the poor man to procure him a ticket from the priest for admission to the work.. house, which Hooly proceeded for. The clergym an was at the chapel, and he desired Hooly to go to his house, and that he would in a few minutes be there to give him the necessary order of admission. "In the meantime Carthy made his way out of the house, and brought in a halfpennyworth of milk, which, at his request, was warmed for him. He swallowed it with some difficulty, and, lying down on the floor, yielded up, without a struggle or a sigh, his life ' to Him who giveth and taketh away.' In the evening I accompanied the Rev. Mr. Fitz L ° Y l (Z/- ,' PRICE SD. and liberty should be given by the august chief of Christendom to Europe, moved and subjugated by the spectacle of so noble and beneficent a policy. In re calling all these circumstances, posterity will pronounce that no Pole could be justified in despairing of the future fate of his country. My words ore especially addressed to that part of the nation in which is chiefly concentrated its moral strength, its intelligence, its most noble instincts, its most generous vitality. This portion has had the nice t to suffer from our disasters ; it is these that will derive from them the most precious advantages. Great misfortunes, great perils are fitted to cure us of our prejudices, of our weaknesses, and of our errors ; they dissipate the blindness of vanity and subordinate interests; they teach us to appreciate correctly our wants and our position. May we, enlightened by suffer ing and cruel anxieties, become more able to practice reciprocal charity, union, and constancy, and to seek in the holy faith of our forefathers the consolation and the strength which that alone can give. I have never con cealed from myself the innumerable difficulties which barred the chance of our redemption, and how much we all need, in heart and intelligence, resolution and patience, piety, talent, and of labour, before we can advance in the path which has been traced for us. It is rare, lac knowledge, for men to unite so many qualities ; but it is a glorious destiny in life to be under the pressing and binding necessity of acquiring them." [The speaker, after alluding to himself and the peculiarities of his po sition, and saying a few words on the difficulties and bitterness with which that position is surrounded, thus concluded] :—" That which God has decreed in his wisdom will be accomplished. Let us bow to his will, not with timorous or incredulous weakness, but with that deep humility of heart, that confiding resignation to the eternal counsels which elevates our souls to their highest power." AMERICAN AFFAIRS, NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—Our latest advices from the army of occupation are datetilikontereyy =the i 6th of October. Two United States snails, with public and private letters, had been captured by the Mexicans. The mail riders, it was said, had been murdered ; but, as they were Mexicans, it was suspected that they had voluntarily surrendered the mails to General Ampudia. It was understocd in the camp that General Tay lor had received instructions in the new state of things, but what they were had not transpired. It was thought, however, some movement was in con templation. The most important information is, that the Mexicans have evacuated Saltillo, having first destroyed the fortifications. They have also destroyed everything on the road to San Luis Potosi that could in any way be useful to an invading army;— thus, according to the account, leaving nothing for General Taylor to conquer but a barren region of rugged mountains and thirsty plains, affording neither water nor provisions for the subsistence of man or beast over a distance of 200 or 300 miles, before he reaches San Luis Potosi. The same accounts add that Santa Anna, with a reinforcement, had arrived at San Luis Potosi, where he intends making a stand. Santa Anna had given orders for the evacuation of Monterey, but they did not reach the commanding general before the action had taken place. There is, with the best informed Americans, a deep anxiety for the security and comfort of our army. They have a long and tedious march to reach Santa Anna; and by many it is doubted whether it can be effected but at great hazard. The re treat from Saltillo is considered by military men as a masterly movement, and is ascribed to the sagacity of i Santa Anna. A letter from Monterey says—" In fact, so far from the war being ended, it has just commenced. Our position is critical. Our supplies at Cansargo, 180 miles distance, must be waggoned to this place. This long line has no protection. The Rancheros troops, numbering near 2,500, are behind us as guerillas, and, if they choose to act, our trains must be cut off , Although this is a rich valley, its supplies are inade quate to our wants, except in beef. We are now over 700 miles from the city of Mexico, with a vast desert to traverse. We have the fullest expectation of the most active guerilla war against us. Move where we will, the mountains and passes affbrd every facility to carry it on successfully, and most disastrously for us." Details of the position of the American army, and their means of attack, will be found in the public journals which accompany this letter. It is now evi dent that the Administration have not only moved, in this war, very injudiciously, if not ignorantly, but that they are themselves convinced of their own incapacity to conduct it to an honourable ter mination, They have therefore resolved to suspend, in a great measure, all vigorous action until Con gress meets, when it is understood that honour able body will be called upon to assume a full share of the responsibility of future warlike movements. It was said, and probably correctly said, that General Taylor's armistice was disapproved by the President, and that he was ordered to annul it, and forthwith to pursue the enemy into the interior. Whether counter-orders have been issued is not known ; but we have an official notice that no additional volunteers will be called into service until after the meeting of Congress. In the present state of public affairs, the Government is at fault. The Administration is becoming distracted and divided. Some of them are preparing, like rats, to abandon a sinking ship. The community has lost all confidence in them. Nearly every state in the union, at the recent elections, has repudiated and denounced their policy. The Mexican war is unpopular. The repeal of the tariff of 1842 is condemned by two-thirds of the American people. The Sub-Treasury law is an odious measure. In short, no prominent act of the Govern ment, since the dominant party came into power, has re ceived the approbation of the intelligent portion of tax paying citizens. Since the date of my last letter, elections have been held in the states of New York, New Jersey, Massa chusetts, lowa, and Delaware. In all of them the Whigs have triumphed. As the returns are not all received, details cannot be accurately given. The general result, however, may be given in the states mentioned, and they may be considered as settled beyond all controversy. In my letter of the 31st ult., referring to the state of New York, and speaking of the approaching election, I say—" Of the 34 representatives, I think the Whigs will elect a majority ;" the result of that election is, that the Whigs have elected 23 members, and all other parties and factions 11—a triumph as unequalled as it was unexpected. Massachusetts has done rather letter for the Whig party than New York. A strong impression has been made, within a few days, that Congress, when they convene in December, will modify both the tariff and the Sub-Treasury laws. This opinion has been produced, I think, by the defeats which the Locofocos have suffered in the recent elections. The opinion, however, is without foun• dation. The party in power will not retract their steps. They will scorer die in the last ditch. Until March next they have an overwhelming ma jority in the House of Representatives, and their pride will not allow them to abandon any measure of the last session. After the 4th of March the Whigs will have a majority in the house. That majority will be thorough tariff men ; but the Senate will be Locofoco. Whether after their state has expressed itself against the free-trade system these Senators will continue to op pose the re-enactment of the tariff of 1842 is problema tical. - In the next session, however, nothing on these subjects will be done. For a few days past the application of the Secretary of the Treasury for a loan of 5,000,000 dollars has been the subject of discussion in Wall-street. On the 12th inst. the bids were to be opened at Washington, but the non-arrival of the New York mail caused a suspension of the opening until the next day (the 13th). It is un derstood, however, that the required amount has been subscribed at about par, or a fraction above par. The stock is redeemable in ten years, bearing an interest of six per cent. per annum. The money-market remains steady, with a moderate demand for money at a moderate interest. The arrival of the last steamer for a few hours ren dered our flour-market rather stiffer, with a trifling advance in price, but it has reacted, and flour may now be quoted at 5 dolls. 95-100 to 6 dolls. per barrel. —nmes. A GENEVESE TRAVELLER. PUNISHMENT OF DEATH.-A public meeting was held last evening, at the Music-hall, Store-street, having for its object the adoption of measures to promote the abolition of the punishment of death. As we have already reported at considerable length the proceedings of several similar meetings, a brief outline only is neces sary. Mr. Charles Gilpin presided, and shortly ex pounded the principle on which the Society advocates the abolition of capital punishment—that of the sanctity of human life. In allusion to the recent statement of the Premier, that the treatment of criminals was a ques tion yet to be solved, he recommended to his Lordship's attention the course pursued by the late Mrs. Fry. lie expressed surprise at the tone adopted by the Morning Chronicle on this question, when the reputed proprietor, Sir John Easthope, had voted for the abolition of capital punishments six years ago. It might suit that paper to go back, but the public were not going back on this question.—(Hear.) On the committee of this society were men who had been accustomed to go from victory to victory ; amongst its members were Richard Cobden, John Bright, W. J. Fox, Charles Dickens, and Douglas Jerrold.—(Loud cheers.) But, better than all, the Society had ri g ht on it s s id e . —(Ch eers .) Th e meeting was addressed by Mr. Charles Potter, the Rev. Henry Richards, Mr. J. H. Parry, Mr. F. Rowton, Mr. IL Vincent, and other gentlemen; and the same resolutions as have been adopted at previous meetings were sub mitted and agreed to, as were petitions to the Legislature founded thereon. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE ICE.—Yesterday Mr. Baker held an iuquest at the Fountain, Clapton, on the body of Alfred J. :Cook, aged 12 years, lately living at No. 7, Exmouth-street, Hackney -road. It appeared that on Wednesday morning the deceased, who is sup posed to have gone on the ice at Clapton pond, was seen in the water by a female of the name of King, and near him was his dog. She gave an alarm, but it was several minutes bef ore h e was got out, as there were no drags. The body, on being extricated, was taken to the Fountain, where the usual means were resorted to, to restore animation, but without effect.—Verdict, " Accidental death." IPSWICH AND BURY ST. EDMUNDS.--The opening of this line for the conveyance of passenger trains has been announced to take place on Monday next. -I_-- _ ~s~ ~r ~~~~~ NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. CHATHAM, DEC. 4.—The Albatross, 16 guns, Com mander A. Farquhar, is still in the harbour, and getting her sea stores on board, and water tanks are being fitted in her. She is deficient of her complement of men by 21 petty officers. She is under orders to sail from this port on the 23d of the present month, and is to sail from Portsmouth for the Coast of Africa, on the 29th. The Warspite, 50 guns, in dock, fitting for commis sion, is expected to be completed by the end of the month, when she will be undocked and masted. The Elk 12-gun brig, building in the first dock, has got her stem and stern posts in place. Another brig, to be named the Heron, 16 guns, is ordered to be imme diately laid down, and to be built in the same dock; and a 16-gun brig, to be named the Despatch, is also to be commenced without delay, and to be built on a slip at the lower part of the dockyard. The ship Lady Lilford, R. Scott, master, arrived yes terday from the East Indies with a cargo of teak for the Dockyard. The new school erected for the Dockyard apprentices will not be ready to be occupied until March next. An estimate for the cost of the ventilation of the building was forwarded yesterday to the Admiralty. The Drake has arrived from Woolwich, and, having discharged her cargo, is loading again for Sheerness Dockyard. SIJEEIiNEss, DEC. 3.—lt is rumoured that the Ad miralty contemplate the embodying the Dockyard arti ficers and labourers into a volunteer corps, for the de fence of the ports. They are to be trained, it is stated, to the use of the great guns and small arms, are to wear uniform, be commanded by the executive officers of the Dockyard, and, when called out for exercise or training, are to be paid from 4'i. to 6d. extra per hour. The de tails of the measure, we learn, are as yet incomplete, but such is its sum and substance. The Terrible steam-frigate, Capt. Ramsay, remains in port, without any further orders. The Birkenhead, iron steam troop ship, is still fitting in the Basin, where are also the Euryalis, convict del:6c, and Dragon steam-frigate ready for sea. The Formidable, 84 ; Horatio, 44; Seringapatam, 44; and Dart, 3, building, are in dock. In Ilarbour—The Ocean, 30, flag-ship; Terrible, Wildfire, and Speedwell.

In consequenc e of some extensive alterations being about to be made in the superintendent's dwelling-house at Haslar, Captain Parry intends residing for the present :it Anglesey Ville. ' Sir William has leave of absence until January 18th. The Penelope is getting her guns on board ; she is still in want of a great many men ; orders have, how ever, been received for thirty general servicemen from the flag-ship to be drafted into her, to assist in complet ing her establishment. Lieutenant Walter Morris has been appointed to her. The Vengeance will be ready for sea about the 10th inst. Her first trip is to be to Gibraltar, where she will carry the 36th Regiment, at present quartered at Weedon. The Naiad is fitting for sea as rapidly as circum stances will admit of. The Avenger steam. frigate will be laid up at Ply mouth until her services are again required. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT BROADWALL, LAMBETH.— Last night, shortly before twelve o'clock, a fire, attended with considerable destruction of property, broke out upon the premises belonging to Messrs. Hitchcock and Connar, brush-board and veneer saw mills, situate in Broad wall, Blackfriars, next door to the Wesleyan chapel. It appears that whilst the police constable was going his rounds, his attention was suddenly arrested by au immense sheet of flame issuing through the roof of the is ills, a building about forty feet long by thirty feet wide. 'The constable having raised an alarm, the inmates of the several contiguous premises were aroused from their slumbers ; at the same time information was sent to the engine stations. In the course of a few minutes the Waterloo-road, West of England, and Brigade engines reached the scene ; and also the escape belonging to the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, from New Bridge-street, City. As soon as water could be procured from the mains in the district, the two engines were set to work, but the flames had by that perieod obtained complete possession of the building and its con tents. For some time it was feared that the surround ing houses would have been destroyed, and the owners at once commenced removing their furniture t t oa place of safety. Other engines of the Bri ga d e , and one, came up, and owing to the indefatigable exertions of the firemen the fire was extinguished by half-past one this morning, but not until the saw-mills were nearly destroyed, end their contents consumed. Unfortunately Messrs. Hitchcock and Conner were uninsured. How the fire originated could not be learned. The workmen left the place at nine o'clock, having previously "damped up" the b o il er -fl ue . A person named Seal, who had a good deal of property in the building, was also uninsured. INGATESTONE FAIR. —This fair, the last of the kind in these counties, took place on Tuesday and Wednes day, but upon the whole it cannot be pronounced equal to former years. The show of Scots was short, and of middling quality compared with what we have been in the habit of seeing here; but notwithstanding this nearly the whole were sold at quite as high terms as our late fairs. The supply of Herefords was also limited, but from the high prices required a great many were left unsold. Of Welsh beasts there was a numerous exhi bition, but the quality was middling, and many of them did not find purchasers.
