More than four-fifths of the shares having already been applied for, the period for receiving applications will shortly be limited ; but should the whole number not be subscribed for, no allotment will take place, and ne claim be made on any applicant on account of preliminary expenses. The capital, balances, and deposits of this bank will be invested in Exchequer Bills, India Bends, or the Public Funds ; and it is calcu lated that a dividend of at least eight per cent. will be realised, as shown in the prospectus. The various branches of banking business will be undertaken, discounting operations alone being excluded, whereby the heavy losses attending this branch of business will be avoided, and the expenses materially diminished from the smaller establishment required. The security upon which this bank is established is allowed to be the best that can possibly be devised. It is, therefore, reasonable to suppose that it will receive from the public a large portion of support, thus insuring to the shareholders a corresponding return upon the capital invested. Applications for shares may be addressed to the Secretary, at the office of the National Security Bank, 163, Fenchurch•street, by whom prospectuses will be forwarded post free, if written for; and to the above solicitors and stockbrokers of the Company.

Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate, for the efficacy et his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than it ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an 11s. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above faots.— 3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and prevent it turning grey, rend e ri ng th e h a i r luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The met delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops on the crown of the hea I ; if v, ry bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair on children's heads in a few appplications. If used on intents' heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See pamphlet of testimonials.

CROWDT, ESQ., OF HIGHWORTH, WILTS, COMPRISING THE MUC II AD \TIRED RESIDENCE, WEST FARMS AND A LANDS AT STRA [TON, CLOSE TO THE SWINDON STATION, SOUTH M A RSTON, SHRIVENHAM, LETCOMBE, LECTILADE, HAMPTON AND HANNINGTON ; ALL MOST ELIGIBLE FOR INVESTMENT: MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed by the Executors to announce for SALE by AUCTION, at the GODDARD ARMS, SWINDON, on MONDAY, Nov. 23, at Twelve for One o'clock, in Thirty-five Lots, The important Freehold Property of the late William Crowdy, Esq., of Highworth, Wilts. COMPRISING NEARLY 400 ACRES OF TUE BEST L4ND IN THE VICINITY OF THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY, OFFERING MANY TEMPTING INVESTMENTS, DUBLIN, Nov. 10.—There is no variation in the ac counts received from the provinces to-day. The excite ment appears to be wearing itself out, and the increase of employment afforded by the Board of Works, couplvd with the favourable reaction (to the consumer) in the prices of provisions, affords a strong hope that the dis ease has been brought to a favourable crisis, and that a gradual amendment may be henceforward regarded as certain, although slow. At the Corn Exchange, this day, prices of all kinds of grain, owing, of course, to the nature of the last advices from America, met an advance, but, considering that the supply was short, the rise was extremely insignificant, not exceeding sixpence per barrel. The arrivals of Indian corn continue to increase, both here and at the southern ports. Four more vessrls, laden with heavy cargoes of this grain, Gave arrived at Cork since Saturday last, and further importations are daily expected. It will be seen by the annexed letter, addressed by Mr. Redington to the Rev. J. Wllale, parish priest, that the Government have issued new instructions for the formation of relief committees, by which it is made compulsory on the lieutenants of counties to admit one Roman Catholic clergyman, at least, from each parish. "Dublin Castle, Nov. 4. _ _ including Westrop House, the family Residence, built of stone, of handsome exterior, and upon which no expense has been spared to secure every comfort; the internal arrangement so complete as to leave nothing to be desired. The principal Rooms are of good pro portions, and the Reception Rooms and Saloon opening one with another and, LOOKING UPON THE LAWN AND PLEASURE GARDEN, WHICH EXTEND TO FIVE ACRES, form a most agreeable scene. A shrubbery walk, of singular beauty, winds a considerable distance through the grounds, which present a charming specimen of landscape gardening ; the odices are quite perfect, and, as four packs of hounds hunt the immediate neigh bourhood, A MOST DELIGHTFUL HUNTING SEAT may be secured, which from its many advantages only requires to he known to be appreciated by a sporting gentleman. Also immediately opposite are 26 ACRES OF ORNAMENTAL LAND, with extensive frontages to two roads, forming a most valuable ap pendage to the residence, and - in the town, two Freehold Houses, facing the High-street, occupied by Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Howse, with gardens, and several cottages. Also, Al EASTROP, IN HIGHWORTH, a house occap led by Mr. Lavington, with two closes of extremely rich land, with frontage to the high road; two other Closes, known as Fennell's Closes, and another as THE TRINITY C LISE, WITH FISH-POND AND PLANTATION, a romantic spot of extreme beauty, and its proximity to the town offers a tempting purehase. Two acres of meadow land, at Hampton, let to sir. Robert Litten ; three acres at I-funning:on, let to Mr. ichard Herbert ; thirty acres, known as the Goslakes, with frontage to the Lechlade road ; 37 ACRES or RICH MEADOW AND ARABLE LAND " Sir,—l am directed by the Lord-Lieutenant to ac knowledge the receipt of your letter of the 27th ult., and I have the honour to state that, by an additional instruction relative to the formation of relief committees. every clergyman is enabled to nominate one of his curates to be a member of the committees in his place, for each parish committed to his charge in the district. " The instructions do not sanction the re-assembling of the old committees, without reference to the lieutenant of the county, who is, at the same time, empowered to add to the present committee such persons as he thinks fit.—l have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, " J. N.- REDINGTON." "Rev. James M'Hale, parish priest, Hollymount." The following is an extra't of a letter from a gentle man who holds considerable property in the neighbour hood of Ballinasloe. his case is but a solitary one out of hundreds similarly circumstanced : " There are," he writes, " over 5001. due to me, and I cannot be certain of getting 5L within a month. Even tenants who owe me the rent of 1845 decline passing their bills for the arrears. This would not annoy in 4 so muck, but that I know well they are able to pay. Mark 1 these are not the people who are really un able to meet their demands, but the snug farmers on the -- lands. . . . There are several public works in progress here, on which large numbers are employed ; but the keeping of these roads in repair will continue as a perpetual blister on the land ; and one-half of them are perfectly useless. Just fancy one of these new roads running parallel for miles with the mail coach road, and made apparently for no better or more useful purpose than to shorten the distance to Ballinasloa by half a mile, for the accommodation of half a dozen families !" CONFLICT BETWEEN the POLICE AND WHITEBOYS. Between eight and nine o'clock on Wednesday night an armed party of 12 men, with their faces blackened, attacked the dwelling of John Piper, at Scart, within two miles of Rathkeale, in search of arms, when five of them entered, and succeeded in carrying off a gun. From this they proceeded to the residence of Mr. James Condon, adjoining the same townland, where they demanded admittance at the back door, but were refused, that gentleman informing them from one of the windows that he had no firearms, at the same time adding, that if they did not believe his word to go to the front door, and he would allow them to satisfy themselves. They, how ever, declined the invitation, and retired from before the house, having first cautioned Mr. Condon against de manding rents from his tenantry, under pain of death. They did not go far when they were observed by a small party of police then on patrol, consisting of four men, viz., constable Alfred, sub-constables Kairns, Shea han, and Laurenson, who followed then across the fields, calling on them in the usual way to stand and surrender. The gang peremptorily refused, telling the police to go back, and at the same time turning round they dis charged five shots at the constabulary; the constable re turned the fire, and one of the gang fell, apparently wounded, but being raised by his associates, was carried over a ditch into an adjoining field. The other three policemen then loaded, and prepared to pursue the fugitives, who in the interval gained some ground, and, as they retreated, turned round occasion ally, firing at their pursuers, fortunately without effect. After a good run the police closed with them as they were crossing a high wall, and again fired, when a second man was observed to fall from the top, manifestly wounded, as the stones were besmeared with blood, which was also discernible along the grass. It being a moonlight night, the police did not lose sight of the party, whom they chased into a haggard where several stacks of corn were piled, behind which the Whiteboys took refuge ; but the police, nothing daunted, inter cepted two of the Whiteboys, with whom they had a desperate combat, when the rest of the fellows fled in :he confusion, and the police eventually overcame the two, who were made prisoners after much difficulty and handcuffed. Upon search, both were found armed with guns; and one of them bad a very fine military sword I attached to his girdle, which has since been identified by Mr. George Massy, of Creaves, as his property, and which was taken from that gentleman's residence about a month since. The Rockites were brought into Rathkeale Bridewell the same night, without being allowed to remove the disguise from their features. One of them received a bayonet wound in the breast during the struggle with the police, but the other sustained little injury. The names of the parties are—John Sheehy, a blacksmith, om Askeaton, and James O'Donnell, a farmer's son. Next morning the police searched the neighbourhood of the scene of action, and found two guns, which the rest of the party left behind in their precipitate retreat. While in the bridewell on Thursday night, one of the pri soners attempted to commit suicide, by cutting his throat with a piece of window glass.—Limerick Chronicle. FLANDERS AND DUTCH MAIL. BRUSSELS, Nov. 9.—lt seems as if Brussels were doomed to be continually alarmed by repeated fires. The ruins caused by the conflagration at the Place St. Gery were still burning, when a fire broke out in three different places, one of which was in the Court of Ac counts. It appears that the watchman did not sound his horn so early as he ought to have done, but it is likely that the fog hindered him from seeing the fire till it had become very intense. Two immense cisterns in the Hotel of Arnberg furnished a great supply of water. The most important documents and the registers were saved, but the papers relative to the accounts have been for the most part destroyed. Fortunately, however, there are dupli gates of them in the Ministerial de partments. The buildings are insured for 100,000 francs, and the furniture for 70,000 francs. The rich tapestry, an imitation of the Gobelins, which adorned the Council Chamber, the fine mirrors, and a great part of the furniture of the apartments of Mr. Fallow, were carried into the garden of the hotel. A great part of the furniture was damaged by the precipi cation with which it was removed. The upper stories of ibe Hotel, of the Court of Accounts were completely ruined by the fire. All the floors fell in, except that of the secretary's office, on the first story. There was no money or notes belonging to the Go vernment, so that in this respect no damage is done, but many of the officers had in their desks, sums more or less considerable in money and bank notes, which were destroyed. Many of the subaltern officers of the School of Equitation, who lodged in the building where the fire first broke out, have also lost both their clothes and their fire-arms, while there was no time to remove the small amount of their savings. The registers and useful papers will be removed to the Rue Ducate, which has just been hired by the Govern ment for the offices of the Court of Accounts, while a new building is erected on the same site. As for the archives, which are of no value, they will be sold as waste paper. The establishment of M. Odsemeer was insured for the sum of 10,000 marks, by the company, called Securities of Antwerp. Another company had insuredso,ooo francs on the beer which was destroyed. To-morrow, on occasion of the opening of the Cham bers, there is to be a grand dinner at Court. We know positively that the second report addressed by M. Desart to the Ministers of Public Works, relative to the railway from Brussels to Ghent, has just been sent to the press. GOVERNESSES' BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION.—Yes terday a general meeting of subscribers to the above in stitution, for affording temporary assistance or perma nent annuities to aged and distressed governesses, was held at the Hanover-square Rooms, for the purpose of electing three annuitants from a list of 77 candidates. The chair having been taken by Lord Ashley, it was announced that the committee were enabled to propose three candidates for election, instead of two, through the kindness of a gentleman, who had engaged to raise 3001 towards the expenses of a third annuity. A lady had also offered to give 50/. to meet nine other donations of the same amount, to found a fourth annuity. The last report stilted that during the year the committee had received no fewer than 300 applications for temporary relief, of which 253 had been entertained. The Dowager Lady Grey, ail early friend of the society, had made a suggestion, which the committee had readily adopted. The number of governesses in the country was assututd to be 15,000, and by circulating shilling receipts through lady collectors, an opportunity was offered to governesses to show their own interest in the institution by founding an annuity by the mere gift of an annual shilling-. Scrutineers having been appointed, the election took place, after which the meeting separated. DEATH FROM CUTTING THE TOE-NAILS.—One day last week, as Ebenezey Harris, Esq., who was many years a partner in the firm of Richard Hunt and Co., iron merchants, Bristol, and was well known as a com mercial traveller in the western counties and South Wales, was cutting his toe-nails he let the knife slip, which produced blood; mortification and lock jaw en. sued, and he died at his residence in Bristol, on Satur day last. Mr.,'Harris was in his fifty-fourth year. Very few men were more beloved or respected than Mr. Harris; not only his commercial friends, but those who had the pleasure of his acquaintance, will sustain a loss that will be only equalled by their deep regret,— West Briton. . • AT STRATTON, divided into five closes, two of them abutting upon the railroad at Swindon, and close to the station, let to Mr. Greenaway, Mr. Law rence, and Mr: Bailey.

It is known as THE BI STWALL AND SWINEHAM FARMS, OF 295 ACRES OF RICH DAIRY AND ARABLE LAND, and it will be in the recollection of those acquainted with the county that they were for many years the pet farms, or better known as THE MODEL FARMS OF THE LATE SIR CLAUDE SCOTT, BART., by whose untiring energy, skill, and outlay, they were not only brought to a high state of cultivation, but by the formation of an embankment of vast extent, with a most perfect system a draining and irrigation, some of the richest dairy and corn land in the county was secured, as well as a constant supply of manure from the deposit from the river.

This very pure and beautiftd oil is prepared from the finest castor oil, by divesting it of its smell, stickiness, and viscid principles, and is most agreeably perfumed; whilst it is thus freed from all the thick, fatty, and adhesive matter, it retains all the stimulating and lubricating properties of the parent oil, and, unlike all other oils, bear's grease, pomatums, &c., does not possess that excessive greasi ness which soils the head-dress, bonnet, and hat, and has a power peculiar to itself of keeping the hair in its place. Castor oil cs now universally admitted to be the best application for the growth, pre servation, and beautifying of the hair; for, by its gentle stimulating nature, it induces the capilary vessels to perform their functions, the dormant state of which deprives the hair of its due nourishment —hence the reason why it proves so excellent a remedy for the fall ing off of the hair, preventing its turning grey, removing the scurf, and checking its formation.

Playwell, timber-bender, No. 16, Parker-street, Drury lane. The flames originated in the lower floor of the workshop, and extended from thence to the upper story, seizing in their progress upon a considerable quantity of the stock in trade. The alarm having been promptly procured from works, but the given by a passer by, the intelligence was dispatched to the engine stations. With all possible expedition the parish, London Brigade, County, and West of England engines arrived, preceded by a couple of escapes belong ing to the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from in Plenty ef th of e water w R w i v a e s r immediately py flames had got so strong a hold of the stock in trade and the building, that nearly an hour was lost before they were extinguished, and then not until considerable F th i e re m . injury was done by fire and water to the premises and their contents. The origin of the outbreak could not be ascertained; when the works were closed about 10 o'clock the fires were extinguished, and the place appeared per fectly safe. Mr. Playwell was insured in the Hand-in- Hand Fire-office. THE BIRDS IN ST. JAMES'S PARK.—The past season has been very successful in adding to the number of interesting specimens which form so great an object of attraction to the ornamental waters. The number of additions by the breeding of young ones, exceeds 350, and there is, in fact, now almost a greater number of aquatic fowl ' than the resources of the water and the plantations will conveniently admit of. Upwards of twenty swans have thus been added to the collection, and the Ornithological Society, with whom the manage ment of the waters is invested, has been enabled to carry out, to a considerable ex t e nt:;one of the principles for which it and the present collection was established, the distribution of birds amongst its members. ~t~~~~i J _ ._ .-- ~L PRICE SD. ~/~ Cfir_-/re-Gf MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 12.—Her Majesty's sloop Rose, having landed the specie which she brought from the West Indies, has sailed for Sheerness to be paid off. The Scourge, mortar steamer, remains at Spithead ready for sea. The dockyard officers baying reported that the Re sistance can be repaired. and got ready again as a troop ship, the Admiralty have ordered her to be cleared out, and washed throughout with Dr. Sir -William Burnett's solution, to destroy the bugs and vermin which swarm in her. When the dockyard people have finished the Re sistance, Gimmander Lowe, and the crew of the Croco dile, are to be turned over to her. Captain Sir William E. Parry, of North Pole celebrity, comptroller of steam machinery, is to succeed Captain Carter as superintendent of Haslar Hospital, and of the Clarence victualling-yard at Gosport. Captain Sir J. G. Sinclair, Bart., has commenced duty as superintendent of the packet service at South ampton. _ _ _ Dr. Moseley, the Government inspector of pubic schools, has been officially occupied here for two► days in the examination of the dockyard apprentices (amounting to upwards of 200) who attend the Schools in the yard. Dr. Moseley has gone to Devonport and Pembroke Dock yards, to examine the apprentices of those schools in a similar manner, and on his report being sent to the Ad miralty of the result of the inspections of the six dock yards, a selection is to be made of eight pupils, whom he may recommend as eligible to be placed under the professor of the Naval College, to be educated in the higher branches of mathematics, and other subjects con nected with ship-building, steam, &c. By the promotion to the rank of Lieutenant- General of the Hon. Sir Hercules Pakenham, K.C.8., the situa tion of Lieutenant-Governor of this garrison, and Com mander-in- Chief of the south-west district, becomes vacant. Colonel Thompson Astlett, from Plymouth division, is to succeed Major-General Jones as commandant of this division of Marines, and Colonel Ed. Smith Mer cer succeeds Major-General Beatty as commandant at Plymouth. Commander Thomas Challoner is appointed to the Siren, 16, vice Edgell, promoted. This officer goes to join her in the Mediterranean by the packet from South ampton, and carries out orders for the Siren to go to the coast of Africa. _ _ _ vv Lieutenant Amphlett, from the Actaeon, and Mr. Twee dale, surgeon of the Prometheus, have returned inva lided from the coast of Africa. Rear-Admiral Dacres, with his flag in the President, 50, was at the Mauritius, all well, on the 10th of August. The Thunderbolt steamer was in company. DEATH OF ADMIRAL OF THE RED, PHILIP STEPHENS, ESQ.—The London Gazette announcing the general pro motion, and including in it that:of Admiral of the White, ?hilip Stephens, Esq., to be Admiral of the Red Squa dron, had only been published a few hours when the in telligence has reached us of the above gallant officer's decease at Little Plumstead Hall. Admit al Stephens was a Lieutenant in June, 1792, and his promotion was as rapid as Sir E. Codrington's, for he was made a com mander in March, 1794, and Captain in October the same year. He obtained his flag-rank of Rear- Admiral in December, 1813, Vice Admiral in July, 1821, and Admiral in 1847 Fur many years he held the civil appointment of Deputy-Lieutenant of the county of Norfolk. By the Gallant Admiral's decease another promotion will take place among the flag officers, viz , Frederick Watkins will be promoted from the White le the Red Squadron, being now the 10th Admiral on the list ; Sir John We-t, Commander-in-Chief at Devonport, will hoist the white at the main on board the Queen, 110, in stead of the blue ; Vice-Admiral of the Red Sir Henry Heatheote will be promoted to the rank of Admiral of the Blue, being the 20th flag officer on the list ; Vice Admiral of the White Bendall Robert Littlehales to the Red Squadron ; Vice-Admiral of the Blue Sir Charles Dashwood will be promoted to the White ; and Rear- Admiral of the Red Charles Carter will be promoted to be Vice-Admiral of the Blue Squadron, being the 75th on the list of flag officers, and the 45th on the list of Vice- Admirals. In the extract from the London Gazette of Tuesday we find that 14 of the senior Rear-Admirals were pro mote d to the rank of Vice-Admiral, which left lour on the list of Rear-Admirals of the Red. It appears, how ever, that the Gazette has only promoted 20 Rear-Admi rals of the White to the Red, making 24 instead of 25. Rear-Admiral of the White Archibald Duff should have been included in the promotion to the White, Rear- Admiral of the Red Edward Walpole Brown.' having died on the 15th October. By the Admiralty circular of August 31st last the number of Rear-Admirals was to be fixed at " 75, or 25 of each squadron;" but the general promotion having added 20 Rear-Admirals to the list (then 76), and taken 14 from it for Vice-Admirals, there remained 82, or seven above the permanent number. Adding, however, Rear-Admiral Duff to the Red from the White (omitted in the Gazette), and now, by the death of Admiral Stephens, promoting Rear -Admiral of the White the Hon. Donald Hugh Mackay to the Red squadron, being the 100th flag officer on the list, and then promoting Rear-Admiral Inglefield, C. 8., of the Blue, to the White, -vice Duff, and Rear-Admiral Sir Wm. A. Montagu, C. 8., K.C.IL, from the Blue to the White, vice Mackay, we shall then have 81 Reat-Admi rals of the Blue squadron, or six above the permanent number. THE CAPTAINS' GOOD SERVICE PENSIONS.—We gave on Tuesday several officers who had been mentioned as successors to the good service pensions relinquished by the captains promoted to the rank of rear-admiral. We have reason to believe that, although virtually deter mined on, the names of the captains on whom the good service pensions are to be bestowed will not be officially published for some days. Rear-Admiral Sir Francis Collier, C. 8., K.C.H., has hauled down his broad pendant as Commodore Super intendent at Woolwich Dockyard, but not for the pur pose of being succeeded by Captain Houston Stewart, C.B. He will hoist his flag (blue at the wizen) on board the William and Mary, as rear-admiral superintendent, until the arrival of Commodore Sir J. J. Gordon Bremer, K.C.8., K.C.H., who has his broad pendant flying on board the Trafalgar, 120, Captain J. N. Nutt, at Lisbon, as second in command of the Channel squadron, who has been appointed Commodore Superintendent of Woolwich Dockyard, vice Collier, promoted. Sir G. Bremer is a captain of 1814, and is now 33d from the top of the list. Captain Houston Stewart, C.B. (1817), the 59th captain on the list, recently Acting Superintendent of Woolwich Dockyard, in the absence of Sir F. Collier, has been ap pointed Comptroller of the Coast Guard, in the room of Rear-Admiral Phipps Hornby, C. 8., promoted on Monday. It will be seen that the report of the appointment of Captain Ellice to be comptroller of the coast guard was unfounded. That of the re-appointment of Captain Sir J. Hill (1815), on the expiration of his command at Deptford, December 11, 1846, to be captain superin tendent of the victualling establishment and the dock yard must be equally fallacious. Sir John has had several successive lucrative shore appointments, and will doubtless, now remain on half-p a y unt il h e ge t s his flag rank , to which he will naturally succeed in a very short time. Captain Frederick Huttcn (1844), a lieutenant of 1825 and a commander of 1838, who was lieutenant of the Tees during the Burmese war, was also first lieute nant of the Magicienne, , with Captain Plutn r id ge and likewise of the Vanguard, has been appointed to the Tortoise guard-ship, at Ascension, as goiernor of that island, vice Morrell. Commander Arthur Morrell, of the Tortoise, and governor of Aseen-ion, has been 'appointed to the Hydra, steam-.1i , 0p, on the coast of Africa, vice Young promoted. The Hydra is ordered home direct from Ascension. Lieutenant Thomas S. Lysaght (1841), recently ap pointed to study steam at Woolwich, has been appointed to command the Grappler, steam-vessel proceeding to the coast of Africa, vice, Hawkes, promoted. Lieutenant Lysaght was promoted for services on the coast of China in 1841.) ROYAL MARINES. Appointments—ln consequence of the promotion of Brevet Major Wilson, Assistant-Adjutant General, Royal Marines, to the rank of Lieutenant Coloi.el in that corps, the appointment he has so long held in the Royal Marine Office, New-street, Spring-gardens, .has became vacant. Captain Thomas Wesley, Royal Marine Artillery, has been appointed Assistant Adjutant General, vice Wilson, appointed to the Chatham divi sion, in the room of Lieutenant-Colonel Pargusson, pro moted to second Commandant of the Plymouth division. -e ---e 77. ~~ Second Commandant Thomas Aslett, of the Plymouth division, is appointed to the Portsmouth division, as Commandant, vice Jones, promoted to Major-Gentral ; and Colonel Mercer, second Commandan• of the W-01... ... wich division, is promoted to he Count.,,ndaT .Le Plymouth division, vice George Beatty, Major-Cc era]. Lieutenant-Colonel Richai d Swale is protnoto r l to the see. nd . Commandant:llo of the Woolwich division. These steps in the Royal 11Iarine corps are conse quent on the promotion of Colonels Jonel.. and Beatty to the rank of Major-General ; which also promotes first Lieutenant George A. Ayles, and first Lieutenant and Adjutant Gascoigne, of the Chatham division, to the_ rank of Captain ; and second Lieutenants Walter Bur- • nett Haberfield and Thomas C. Gray, to the rank of first Lieutenant, in the corps of Royal Marines. PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 12.—1 t is the intention of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty that in future the engineers in steamers shad mess in the ward-room, and be considered as ward-room officers. Mr. Baker, of the Victoria and Albert yacht, and Mr. Brown, of the Bee steamer, tender to the Excellent, have already been appri- ed of their position. The alteration is most cre ditable to the board, as most of the engineers are highly educated men. ADMIRALTY CHANGE.—It is rumoured that Captain Berkeley will retire from the Admiralty, from the de termination of the board to reduce the complement of the different ships' crews, he having always contended for a full complement.

WILSON'S SCOTTISH ENTERTAINMENTS.— LONDON.* DERRY.—We bad the exalted pleasure of being present at the entertainments given by Mr. Wilson, in the Cor poration Hall, on Monday end Tuesday evenings. It would be useless to indulge in commendation of a vo calist whose fame is so widely spread and firmly estab lished as that gentleman's, but we may be permitted to say, that we have seldom heard a voice so well uniting as his does the qualities of sweetness, compass, and flexibility. We do not confine our admiration of him to his physical capabilities. We have heard several, having the faculty under proper appliances, of emitting the most dulcet sounds, but, proceeding from a lifeless source, were in themselves lifeless. It is not so with Mr. Wil son. He feels heartily, and brings out the peculiar sen timent of the song with simple and natural emphasis. This was peculiarly observable in his Flowers of the Forest." Of the music itself too much cannot be said. Never were the wailings of a nation poured out in more affecting strains: Mr. Wilson has a keen perception of the grotesque and humorous, and hence, in his comic songs, such as " Herne cam our gudeman at e'cn," and " Get up and bar the door," he is eminently successful, the effect being heightened by good acting, and a patois not a little redulent of Auld Reekie. Both evenings Mr. Wilson had a large and nable audience, who seemed highly delighted.—Londonderry Paper. [Mr. Wilson, after a long tour in Ir. land and the southern counties of Scotland, we understand, returts to tow'. by the end of the month, and has announced a series of his entertain ments in the City, at Crosby Hall, commencing Dec.

DEATU OF A MlSFR.— " Yesterday notice was posted at the Royal Exchange from th, Court of the Arch bishop of Canterbury, that if the next cf kin of Thomas Kane, late of Old Brentford, in the parish of Ddicg, dead intestate, did not come fory,aro, thiy would be conch mhed by contumacy, and B,:!inir;.str.ticu granted to Thomas Maule, the Treasury solicitor, on the part of 11,4 ..51:•,j, sty Queen Victoria.
