FRENCHMAN'S SOLILOQUY ON VISITING HYAM AND CO.'S ESTABLISHMENT. I must confess I much admire The dress at HYAM'S Mart; And I pronounce such choice attire Complete in every part. I used to entertain the thought That France was here superior, But I acknowledge, as I ought, That she is far inferior. Parisian modes have gained a name Beyond the British nation, But lIYA. vl.'3 article , can claim An equal approbation. Whatever merits we possess As artisans of taste, 'Tis clear the style of HYAM'S dress Is equally as chaste. The choicest produce of the loom At HYAM'S Mart we meet, And every sample of costume Is elegantly neat. I'm told that I've a judging eyo, Yet frankly I confess, That I'm unable to descry One fault in lIYAM'S dress.

That your memorimists, whilst recording their solemn and em phatic protest against arty and every attempt to re-impose, in what soever shape, taxes on the food of the people, are firmly persuaded that an overwhelming majority of the British people are, by every constitutional , means, prepared to resist and defeat such a policy, as an unjust and dangerous azgression on the rights of industry, the freedom of trade and commerce, and the social welfare and domestic happiness cfthe great mass of your Majesty's subjects. That your memorialists believe that doubt and uncertainty on this subject are calculated to disturb and jeopardise all tradiar, and in dustrial operatims ; to keep alive a spirit of agitation and restless ness throughout your Majesty's dominions ; to foment false hopes,- and foster injurious apprehensions ; and-that every Sound maxim of .aliaterikklity demands au immediate and decisive settlement of a ques tion fraught with such manifold elements of disunion and disquietude to all the great interests of the nation. Your . memorialist., therefore, would loyally and respectfully be seech your Majesty not to suffer the interests of your subjects to be postponed to the exigencies of a temporising Administration, or any party difficulties that may conflict with sound maxims of con stitutional. policy; but that your Majesty, in the just exercise of your royal prerogative, would causo the great issue now pending between the, responsible advisers of the Crown and the people at large, to be forthwith and finally determined by a speedy dissolution of Parliament. And your memorialists will ever pray.

His second daughter, Caroline Lucy, is married to Captain Sir W. W. T. De nison, R.E." Commodore Sir Thomas Herbert, K.C.B. (1822), hes served afloat for 23 years, his last service having been in command of the Brazil station. In the Raleigh,• 50, he beat the ex- Surveyor of the Navy's 50-gun frigate, Constance, in the trial millings in 1847. He is now a candidate for the representation of Dartmouth, and is sure of being elected. " Sir Thomas Herbert, born in February, 1793, is son of the into Richard T. Herbert, Esq., of Cahernan, county Kerry, where the Herbert family has been seated since the reign of Charles IL Among the early an cestors of Sir Thomas we discovered the name of Sir Richard Herbert, of Coldbrook, who with his brother William, Earl of Pembroke, was beheaded at Banbury, the day after the battle of Danes Moor, July 26, 1469. " This officer entered the navy July 23, 1803, as first class volunteer, on board the Excellent, 74, Captain Frank Sotherton, and on proceeding to the Mediterra nean was there invested with the rating of midshipman, Jan. 1, 1804. After assisting at the defence of Gaeta and the capture of Capri, he removed to the Blonde, 33. Captain Volant Vashon Ballard, whom ha accompanied to the West Indies, on which station we find him wit• nessing the reduction, in December, 1807, of the Danish West India islands, and contributing to the capture of five privateers, carrying in the whole 58 guns and 515 men. On the Ist of August, 1809, as a re ward for the conduct he had in particular exhibited as prize -master of L'Alert of 20 guns and 149 men, Mr. Herbert, on the recommendation of his captaiu, was no minated by Sir Alexander Cochrane to a lieutenancy in his flag-ship the Neptune, 98. Being officially promoted on the 10th of the following October, he was next, be tween March, 1810, and June, 1814, employed, as a lieutenant, in the Pointe', 74, Captain Sir James Athol Wood, on the West India, Home, and Mediterranean stations. He then became first of the Euryalus, 36, Captain Charles Napier, in which frigate he served until the close of the American war, and obtained the official mention of Sir James Alexander Gordon for the ability and the conspicuous exertions he displayed throughout the operations cn the River Potomac, including the cap ture of Fort Washington and of the city of Alexandria. Oa the 17th of October, 1814, Mr. Herbert, who by that period had been upwards of twenty times engaged with the enemy, in cutting-out affairs and otherwise, and had been thrice wounded, was advanced to the rank of commander. He did not, however, take up his com mission until February, 1815; from which period he ap pears to have remained on half-pay until September 6, 1821. He then obtained an appointment to the Icarus, 10, fitting for the Jamaica station, where ho removed, May 6, 1822, to the Carnation, 18, and was posted, No vember 25 following, to a death vacancy in the Tamar, 26. Continuing 'to serve in the latter vessel until paid off in August, 1823, Captain Herbert succeeded during that period in destroying three piratical vessels on the coasts of Cuba and Yucatan. On the 10th of November, 1837, not having been afloat for a period of 14 years, he was next appointed to the Calliope. 26, and ordered to the Brazils. Until the arrival there from the Pacific of Commodore Thomas Ball Sullivan, Cap tain Herbert, we find, conducted in person the duties of senior officer. He was subsequently directed to assume the command of the naval force in Rio de la Plata for the protection of the British interests at Buenos Ayres and Monte Video, during the blockade of the former place by a French squadron; and, while in the dis charge of the duties which were thus imposed upon him, he had the satisfaction of being twice officially assured of the entire approbation of the Admiralty at his pro ceedings. In January. 1840, Captain Herbert went round Cape Horn, and joined Rear-Admiral Charles Bayne Hodgson Ross at Valparaiso, whence, in the ensuing June, he , sailed for China, via St. Bernardin's Passage, encountering en route, while among the Philippine Islands, a typhoon, which the Calliope was only enabled to svrvive through the extreme ex ertions of her officers and mew. Arriving in the Canton river on the 10th of October, Captain Herbert immediately assumed, and, edtr u ce n t t o i ,s l ocik th il_ e e, advent of Rear. Admiral Hon. George Eliot on the 20th of No vember, retained the command of the blockading force, The important nature of his services, as one of the chief actors in the scenes of hostility that followed, demands our particular attention. On January 7, 1841, having been placed by the rear-admiral in charge of the ad vanced squadron off the Boca Tigris, ho conducted the attack made on the enemy's forts at Chuenpee, where were annihilated 11 powerful junks, the flower of the Chinese navy; and on February 23, being at the time on board the Nemesis, ho effected the destruction of a 20-gun battery at the back of the island of Anunghoy. Three days atter the latter event we find him, in the Calliope, heading the operations against the celebrated Bogue Forts; and on the 27th (with the Calliope, He rald, 26, Aligator, 26, Modesto, 18, Sulphur, 8, and Nemesis and Madagascar steamers, under his orders) attacking the enemy's camp, fort, and ship Cambridge, bearing the Chinese admiral's flag, at their position below Whampoa Reach, where 98 guns were on the whole destroyed. After capturing, on March 13, the last fort protective of the approaches to Canton, Captain Herbert's squadron advanced to wards the city, and on the 18th attacked all the batteries and flotilla in its immediate vicinity; the former of which, in the coarse of two hours and a half, were in succession destroyed, and the latter either burnt or dispersed; thus enabling the British to plant the union jack on the walls of the factory, and placing to tally in their power the huge capital of Quang-tong. On the renewal, in the following May, of the hostilities against Canton, the Chinese, on the night of the 21st of that month, made a vigorous attack, with fire-rafts and armed boats, and from several masked and newly-raised batteries, on the British shipping their located, and still yanddeetedabteyd,Caanpttiaoinn Herbert. thenext They day their were, batteries however, dismantled, and their floating armament ruined. On commanded were the 26th the water-defences between the factories and Howqua's fort, mounting sixty-four guns, were levelled, and forcible possession taken of their naval arsenal and war junks. In the month of June, Captain Herbert, who until then had directed, as we have stated, the move ments of the advanced squadron on the Canton river, succeeded, owing to the death of Sir Humphrey Fleming Senhouse, to the command of the whole force employ on that stream. On the arrival, a few weeks afterwar er s , of Rear-Admiral Sir William Parker, as Com . mang ich in-Chief, he was removed to the Blenheim, , ship, in the course of the following of he assisted with great distinction, at thecapture of Amoy, the retaking of Chusan, and the e reduction enecessary Ching-hae.

He is also brother of Hon. Octavius . Duneombe, M.L'., an officer in the let Regiment of Life Guards; and brother-in-law both of the present Earl of Eldon and of Sir Thos. i)igby Le gut], Bart. This °Meer entered the navy Ist April, 1819, and ataincd a lieutenancy 2Gth January, 1323, in rife Sringapafam, 43, Captain Chas, Sotheby. After serving some time in the Challenger, 23, he was awureed a commander's commission Bat August, 1828. Ile subsequently joined, 6th August, 1830, the Princa Re gent, 120, bearing the flag at the Nore of Hoe. Sir Henry Blackwood, and 27th June, 1332, the Champion, 18, in which sloop he appears to have been employed for two years on the Mediterranean station. Since the date of his post-promotion, 21th October, 1834, he hl-ks not been afloat. Ho married, 14th July, 1836, Delia, youngest daughter and co-heir of John Wilmer Field, Esq., of Heaton Hull, county cf York, and has lane three sons and one daughter." Captain A. Milne (1839), as we have stated, was a member of Sir F. Baring's Board of Admiralty. We have already given his services ; but we may remark that since his first entry into the service in 1817 he bas been out of full-pay only eight years. The second secretary, Captain W. A. B. Hamilton (1828), every one knows, as one of the most coin.. tends, affable, and excellent of official men. He served mist actively afloat for 13 years; but on shore he 'has always been employed in some official ser vies. O'Byrne does him only bare justice. We may add that previously to his appointment as private se cretary to the First Lord of the Admiralty he was private secretary to the Earl of Haddington when Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland. Perhaps , no man cf his age has so much official experience as Captain Ha milton ; no man is more ready, apt, and able ; nd altogether he is one of the most permanent} acquisitions to the navy of the present day. We be lieve his afloat-services have never yet been published in a newspaper, and on that account we deem the present a good opportunity for printing the following in our columns : " William Alexander Baillie Hamilton, born June 6 1803, at Normanbv, county York, is third son of the late Yen. Charles Baillie Hamilton, Archdeacon of Cleve land, by Lady Charlotte Home, youngest daughter of the ninth, and aunt to the present Earl of Home; brother of Sir George Baillie Hamilton, K.C.H., her Majesty's Minister at the Court of Tuscany, and of Commander Cospatriek Baillie Hamilton, R.N.; first cousin of Capt. Thomas Baillie, R.N., and second cousin cf the late Earl of Haddington, late Lord Privy Seal. This officer en tered the navy August 21, 1816, as first-class volunteer, on board the Rochfort, 80, commanded at Portsmouth by Captain Sir A. Collingwood Dickson, with whom he served until his removal, in April, 1817, to the Royal Naval College. In October, 1819, he again embarked on board the Vigo, 75, Captain Thomas Brown, fitting for the flag of Rear-Admiral Robert Lambert, but was soon afterwards transferred to the Active, 46, Captain Sir James Alexander Gordon, in which we find him visiting the Mediterranean, and in August, 1821, at tending George IV. to Ireland. After a further attachment of nearly two years to the Euryalus, 42, Captain A. W. J. Clifford, and Revenge, 78, flag ship of Sir Harry Burrard Neale, both on the Mediterranean station, Mr. Hamilton was promoted, Dec. 1, 1823, to a lieutenancy in his old frigate, the Active, Captain Andrew King, then off Lisbon. He was subse quently appointed, Jan. 26, 1824, to the Blanche, 46, Captain William Bowen Mends, in which ship he con veyed Vice Admiral Lord Amtlius Beauclerk to the Tagus, and next proceeded to South America; Dec. 2, 1824, to the Windsor Castle, 74, Captain Hugh Down man, lying at Plymouth; July 26, 1825, to the Druid, 46, Captain S. Chambers, forming part of an experi mental squadron; Much 1, 1826, to the Ganges, 84, fitting for the flag of Rear Admiral R. W. Otway; and lastly to the Blonde, 46. In that frigate he immediately proceeded to Bermuda with dispatches for the Com mrnder-in-Chief, Rear Admiral Willoughby Thomas Lake, by whom, on his arrival, he was placed in command of the Doterel, sloop. His promotion meeting with official sanction, Nov. 17, 1826, Captain Hamilton was next, July 2, 1827, appointed to the Pelican, 18, in the Mediterranean; previously, however, to joining , which vessel ho appears to have elicited the approba tion of Sir Edward Codrington while employed by that admiral in communicating with the officer in com mand of the Turkish forces in the Mores. He after wards watched the harbour of Navarin, until at length enabled to report to the commander in chief at Malta the intelligence cf its evacureion by the remains of the enemy's fleet; end in October, 1828," he witnessed the final departure of Ibrahim Pacha's army from the Mona. Captain Hamilton, who, during his cruise off that peninsula, as well as with Sir Thomas Staines at Grabusa, had been very efficaciously employed in the suppression of piracy, and had been advanced to post rank by commission dated August 9, 1828, resigned the command of the Pelican Dee. 1, in the same year. Ho has not since been afloat. Captain Hamilton was ap point( d, in 1841, private secretary to his relative Lord Haddington, thou First Lord of the Admiralty, and after acquiring, in the discharge of the duties of that delicate and:important post, the affection and esteem of the service to an extent, we believe, unparalleled, was selected in January, 1845, to succeed Sir John Barrow, Bart., in the Second Secretaryship of the Admiralty. He married August 15, 1836, Lady Harriet Hamilton, sister of the Marquis of Abercorn, and daughter of the late Viscount Hamilton, by Harriet, granddaughter of the 15th Earl of Morton, who, on the Viscount's death, married, secondly, the present Earl of Aberdeen, late her Majesty's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs." The private secretary to the First Lord, Captain the Hon. F. T. Pelham (1840), has served afloat about eighteen years • he was a most excellent officer, and will, we doubt not, prove a second Cap tain Hamilton in his new office. " The Hon. Frederick Thomas Pelham, born August 2, 1808, is the second son of Thomas, second Earl of Chichester (who filled the office of secretary to Lords Northington and Camden, when Lords Lieutenants of Ireland, and was afterwards Secretary of State for the Home Department, and Postmaster- General), by Hen rietta Juliana, daughter of Fres. Godolphin, fifth Deka of Leeds. His brother, the present Earl of Chichester, is married to a sister of the Earl of Cardigan. This officer entered the navy, June 27, 1823, and while at tached, es midshipman, to the Sybille, 48, Captain Sam. John Pechell, was present in 1826 in an attack on the pirates in the Grecian Archipelago. He passed his ex amination in 1829; acquired the rank of lieutenant, Feb. 22, 1830; served as first of the Ferret, 10, Captain Edward Wodehouse, on the Mediterranean station, from 28th of April following, until paid off at the commence ment of 1832; and between 2d of May in the latter year and the date of his promotion to the rank of commander, Sept. 21, 1835, was employed on the north coast of Spain in the Castor, 36, Captain Lord John Hay. For services performed while in command, from Jan. 17, 1837, until the autumn of 1838, of the Tweed, 20, on the Lisbon station, Captain Pelham was presented, 18 e 4 Odin, Aug. 9, 1839, with the cross of San Fernando. He at tained post-rank, July 3, 1840; and since May 24, 7 been in command, in the Mediterranean , o f h steam-frigate, of 560-horse power.

D EFE NCES OF S PI THEAD.-The buoy-boat belonging to the dockyard went out from Portsmouth on Tuesday, taking a party o f engineer, officers, and som e pr i vates of the corps of S a ppers and Miners, to examin e a s i te for a battery which will be erected for the defence of the en trance to Spithead anchorage.

" Pat more black into your tickets," was the advice given by the late Alderman Waithman to the manager of one of his branch establishments in ELlborn for tho sale of cheap cottons. The letter in which he gave this advice was afterwards read in a trial, and so got into the newspspers. Bat the advice is of the usual sort among gentlemen of the Manchester School, and none understand it better than the managers of the League. These, worthies had a meeting in Manchester on Tuesday, which is thus headed in their London organ:—. " GREAT MEETING AT MANCHESTER. 27,520/. SUBSCRIBED. Bat when we come to look a little closer, we find that there has been a liberal use of the " black" in making out this ticket. Before this subscription was commenced, the meet• ing passed a resolution, that of the sums to be subscribed only ten per cent. should be called up at present. By this dexterous ranee:lyre due notice was given hcforeh:nd, that every Manchester man who was prepared to give 10C/. might put his name down for 1,0001., and ho who meant to give la might call that sum 1001. Could a better plan be devised for making a stbscription go off spiritedly? But, it may be asked, do not the subscribers pledge themselves to pay the remaining 901. or 9001. when called on? They do so, but nothing is more easy, when that day shall arrive, than to quarrel with the management and to decline to pay any more. There is no fear of -expo sure. There were plenty of defaulters iu 1845, but "for the honour of the cause" not a word was said about the matter. Mr. Hume, in the Greek loan affair, showed how these things might be done. However, as to the present result, a great boast is !nada that 27,500/. has been raised at a single meeting, whom in real truth, 2,75 0 4 is the whole sum actually put down. And this, even if it be doubled or quadrupled, is all hum bug.--Herald SINGING ROOMS AND CASINOS. But even a married working man as well as his wife, way desire a bit of amusement now and then ; and why not? After all, amusement is a necessary of life. We cannot always be jogging on in the dull routine of daily toil. Man must be relaxed and pleased occasionally. Why has a love of amusement been implanted in mana nature, if it was not meant that it should occasionally be gratified? And it will be gratified. If innocent and rational amusements are not provided, men will take such as are to be had, even though they be of a very inferior kind. If innocent pleasures are withheld, then low and sensual gratifications will be indulged in; and there will always be found plenty of persons ready, for the sake of gain, to minister to them. This brings us to the practical application of our subject. And what we mean to say is this—that innocent amusements for the people ought to be p rovided in far g re ater abun dance than they now are. It wo would put down the pbraodviadnindgLetterviciou s ones. It is of amusements, it no usecananly bo done by railing at music rooms end Casinos.
