Tiurgoynes, Thrupp, and Clark, 16^, Oxford-street Westbourne-terrace is confl ssedly one of the finest ranges of build ings in the metropolis. Its proximity to Hyde-park and Kensington gardens, great width, elevation, and gravelly soil, and the very elegant and commodious arrangement of the interior of the man sions, present a combination of attractions which must render it a most valuable investment. _ _ The property is held under leases of ninety-eight years, from Michaelmas, 1839. It co isists of seventy-three first class mansions, of which many are already occupied at good rents, and the whole range is to be completely finished, including fixtures, before the 25th December, 1846. It is now proposed to constitute a Company for the purchase of the leases at the price of 370,00 , 1. The report of Mr. Stevens, surveyor of the Royal Exchange Assurance Corporation, shows that at the estimated rental it will yield at least five per cent. to the Company. The report, as well as a lithographic view of the property, may be seen at the solicitors'. It is also proposed, that the Company shall be constituted on the principle of a Tontine. That principle may be shortly described as follows :—Each shareholder nominates a life in respect of every share. By the falling in of the life so nominated the share lapses to the Company, so that the benefit of the fund is continually in creasing to those whose nominated lives survive. Thus estimating the net rental of the mansions in Westbourne-terrace to be included in the Tontine at 18,0001. per annum, and presuming that at the end of a certain number of years three lives only survive, repre senting an equal amount of shares, the shareholders, whose nominees they are, will take the 18,0001. per annum, in equal thirds, and the last surviving life will be entitled to the whole for the resi due of the ninety-eight years' lease. _ lay this arrangement the shareholders respectively receive a fair interest for their money, with the certainty of a continual increase. The investment is manifestly a most desirable one where the object is to secure a provision fora child or children, because by nominating puch child or children there must necessarily be a good income for such as survive. When the houses are all let at the rents respectively assigned to them, the net receipts will amou.tt to 20,5691. It is not intended, however, to divide, in any one near. the whele of the rental, but to form a Reserved Fund, to be distributed as a bonus amongst the survivors at the end of every seventh year, and a Guarantee Fund to meet contingencies, the ultimate balances of which tunds will be delivered over to the last survivor with the other property. The proprietor of every share of 1001, will have the privilege of nominating one life at any time previous to the 24th December, 1846 ; and should the nominee die lie:ore 1144 s clay, then another life may be substituted, so that ail the subscsibers may he on an equal tooting on the 25th December, 1846, the 'day from which the rents will be receivable by the Company. Two Assurance Societies have already offered to assure the lives of nominees of from five to twenty years of age, at the moderate rate of 1 per cent. 11 proper Deed of Settlement will be prepared under the direction of the Committee, and settled by counsel, which will contain all necessary powers for regulating the constitution of the Company, and for enabling the proprietors at any time to dissolve the same and divide the proceeds. The property will he conveyed to trustees, and the management of the affairs of the Company will he vested in a Committee, to be chosen by the shareholders from their own body, one-third of whom will retire each year, and be re-eligible. Applications for shares must be made, in the undermentioned form, and left, under cover, at the offices of Messrs. Burgoynes, Thrupp, and Clark, No. 160, Oxtbrd-str-et. The houses may be seen by applying to Mr. Thompson, Architect and Surveyor, No. 2, Conduit-street West, Hyde-park; or to J. Tippets, No. 34, Westbourne-terrace. Prospectuses may he had as above.

The Company is formed for the purpose of carrying out, more ef fectually working, and bringing NM general use, an invention se curod by letters patent for an improved manufacture of gas. The apparatus is so portable it can he fitted up on any descrip tion of building, even at a kitchen range, without affecting the do mestic arrangements, and the lire used in ordinary in generating the gas will be ample to produce steam for warming the most extensive premises. The most eminent engineers and chemists unite in opinion that the invention is not only practicable and free from smell or annoy ance, but by this valuable patent is secured the manufacture of a pure sad super for gas, not only on new, but sound, scientific, chemical, and mechanical principles, which have been hitherto overlooked in the common modes of manufacture ; besides, this gas possesses more of the illuminating power, and will burn longer, than that now in use, in the proportion of 40 per cent. in favour of the invention. The patent method ; pplicable , o lighting generally, but more especially small towns, villages, lighthouses, colleges, churches, dock yards, theatres, public offices, prisons, barracks, railway stations, m mufactories, printing-affices, madhouses, hospitals, and schools, &c., and warming the buildings, without extra expense. The benefits which would accrue to lighthouses, dockyards, and numeroty localities, where the ordinary gas cannot he conveyed without the formation of many new Acts and Companies, or at im mense expense, would be sufficient to obtain for this Company the most prominent and prosperous position. The great saving to the consumer, the small portion of room requi site for the erection of the apparatus, the simplicity of its working, and the brilliancy of the gas, will insure the adoption of the invention throughout the kingdom ; and although the public can be supplied at a price which will defy competition, the Company can confidently hold out to those disposed to become shareholders a return upon their capital of not less than fifty per cent. The Company being far advanced, wM be Ina situation, when fully registered, to take contracts immediately. Applications for shares, in the usual form, to be made to, and ftrther particulars obtained of, the Solicitor, and also the Secretary, at the Company's offices, where may be seen the apparatus at work, and the brilliancy of the gas exemplified.

Weekly Numbers ..... ....... •• • One Penny. Monthly Parts (with a Supplement).. Sixpence. Quarterly Volumes.. ...... Eighteenpence. THE PENNY MAGAZINE has now been in the course of publi cation for fourteen years ; and during the whole period the duties of Editor have been discharged by Mr. Knight, under the " Superinten dence of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge." The time has arrived when teat "superintendence "has merged in the in dividual responsibility of the Editor. The circulation of The Penny Magazine is very large ; its reputa tion is unimpaired. But fourteen volumes having been completed in accordance with the original intention of the work, which was to combine miscellaneo' s infbrwation with expensive pictorial embel lishment, circumstances now point to the necessity of some essential modification of the plan. Left to his individual responsibility In the conduct of the work, the Editor deems it his public duty to take a new position, to enable him to carry out his views of what should new he the character of a widely. circulated and eminently cheap miscellany. Such a periodical work may command as high and as various literary talent as the most lefty of its contemporaries ; and the best talents and acquirements may now be most fitly employed in the service of the people, instead of addressing themselves only to readers of wealth and leisure. Knight's Penny Magazine is in tended to Ise for the People of 1846 what " The Penny Magazine ~ f the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge " was for the People of 1832. Without any change in the objects for which the Penny Maga sine was established—"to enlarge the range of observation, to add to the store of facts, to awaken the reason, and to lead the imagina tion into agreeable and innocent trains of thought" —a new Penny Magazine may be able to do much which its predecessor has, from the nature of its plan, of necessity left undone. Essentially a con tinuation of The Penny Magazine under the same Editorship —ex pecting the continued support of the constant friends of that miscel lany—it seeks a more extensive circulation by aiming at a wider range and a more varied character. It will, henceforth, be chiefly a Magazine of Reading. Woodcuts will no longer continue to he the prominent feature of the work ; but will be frequently used as necessary illustrations and as specimens of art. As compared with The Penny Magazine, the work now announced will be printed on a larger sheet, but a smaller page ; it will consist of sixteen pages instead of eight ; and will contain a much greater amount of reading. It will be printed in the best style, in a very clear type ; and the form being that of a handsome portable book, it will bind in conve nient volumes four times a year, so as to constitute an important addition to a " Library for all Readers." Knight's Penny Magazine will be published, as previously indi cated, in a Weekly Sheet, a Monthly Part, and a quarterly Volume ; and in all these forms it may hope to become a Fireside and a Travelling Companion, as universally sought as " in the most high and pahny" days of The Penny Magazine of the Soeiety ,for the Dif fusion of Useful Knowledge.

EXTRAORDINARY CORRESPONDENCE." Under the above head, the Mail of this evening pub lish, s the following strange correspondence between Mr. T. Jefferson Hogg and Sir Robert Peel. Why Mr. Hogg should select a Dublin journal as the medium for communicating these documents to the public, or why their publication should be withheld for a period of nearly 18 months from the date of his last letter to the Premier, cannot be well divined : " Temple, July 20, 1844. " Sir,—l shall be sorry to be obliged to make public, because, although it relates to public affairs, it is, in its nature, private, my correspondence with yourself, with the Lord President of the Council, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the Lord Chancellor. The last having, as he states, obtained the permission of Field-Marshal the Duke of Wellington, continued to write two or three notes to me every session, until a majority of 92 enabled you to turn your back upon your friends, and with many other good Conservatives of great respectability, but in ferior note. With so many, indeed, that selection is difficult. " But are the remainder of my reports on municipal corporations, allow me to ask you, to remain unpublished fur ever ? Are my services in composing these volumi nous reports to be always unpaid ? Is no remuneration or recompense whatever to be awarded for my vexations, labours and losses ? Am I tamely to submit to slights and indignities which, most certainly, I do mot deserve, and which no honourable man ought to bear ? Be pleased to consider these matters. " I am, Sir, yours very respectfully, " T. J. H. HOGG. " To the Right Hon. Robert Peel, Bart., &c." " Whitehall, July 25,1844. " have received your letter of the 25th of July. You state that you shall be sorry to he obliged to make public a correspondence with myself and others, which, although it relates to public affairs, is, in its nature, pri vate. You proceed to ask, Is no remuneration, or re • convense whatever to be awarded for my labours, vexations, and losses ?' And you desire me to consider this matter. I beg leave to inform you that I have con sidered it, and that my opinion is, that you have received the amount of remuneration w hich is due to you. Your intimation that you may be obliged to publish corre spondence in it, nature private, will have very little effect in inducing me to add to that remuneration. If you think fit to publish any correspondence with me (and I leave you at entire liberty to exercise your own discre tion in that respect), I must desire you will include in that publication your letter of the 20th of July, and this answer to it.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, " T. J. H. Hogg, Esq." " ROBERT PEEL. " Sir,—Your tter of the 25th of July pretends to be en answer to mine of the 20th: that it is not; it is merely unhandsome and improper, " I have never been paid one farthing for my reports; neither for those that were printed, nor for the remainder, which are still unprinted, and in my hands. For seven months' inquiry I was paid at the appointed rate, 700 guineas; but for my reports I have received nothing. Whereas, a commissioner, who was engaged with mean the inquiry less than four months in all, had 9001.; for his reports, therefore, 500 t., and so with the rest. If this matter were referred, as it ought to be, to some im partial person acquainted with such services, as one of the Learned Judges, for instance, I would show him, in a quarter of an hour, that the assertions which you have been instructed to make, that I have received the amount of remuneration which is due to me,' is utterly false. Your informant knows that it is false, and you must suspect that it is, if you will not submit to the arbi trament of some respectable person, to be named by yourself if you a ill. " But this is the least considerable part of my letter; you do not touch the more important. matter. I ask you, first—' Are the remainder of my reports to remain unpub lished for ever ? ' You are mute, so I must answer the ques tion myself, and say—' that I shall be sorry tto be obliged to make public a correspondence with yourself and others, which, although it relates to public affairs, is in its nature private.' Nevertheless, I will, through a sense of duty, publish it at once, rather than permit my reports on Great Yarmouth, Saffron Walden, Sudbury, Colchester, Carr.arvon, and other boroughs, on which no report has been made, to be unlawfully suppressed. I was appointed a Commissioner under a Commission issued by the Sove reign, at the requisition and petition of the House of Commons ; and was commanded to inquire and report. I did inquire, and most diligently, and I made my re ports. The like reports have always been printed, as of course, and laid before Parliament. There is no pre cedent for withholding such reports ; and I will do my utmost not to furnish one, and it signifies nothing that the Ministry have been changed.

Such is the tone of your letter, and the temper of your mind. You can see nothing in my letter, but a demand for money. Nor can a worshipper of wealth discern any Ptinoiple in opposing the rule, that an unpriucipled Ad ministration shall reward their base taols, but he who was honest in the worst times shall remain for ever un paid. Fear not that, in the exercise of my discretion, I will suppn sa your letter of the 25th July, in which you address me as if I were a robber, because, in stating my determinati,n to do my duty, I also ask for my own. You shall be gratified by the publication of it, if you still desire it, and of these poor lines.—l am, Sir, most re spectfully your servant, " T. JEFFERSON HOGG. " Temple, 27th July, 1844.

The articles wer.: chiefly unredeemed pledges. The thieves also helped themselves to 371. 10s. in gold, and 121. 10s. in silver. A fine dish of white currants was gathered on Christmas-day, in the garden of William Ford, Esq., Yeo, near Yeannpion.— Western Luminary. YORK, JAN. 1.

Tuesday being the day appointed for the launch of this fine vessel, the town of Sheerness exhibited the usual demonstrations of a general holiday; and the day being fine overhead, for nearly an hour before the time fixed for the launch (ten o'clock) the dockyard was thronged with crowds cf well-dreised people from all parts of the island, who, however, were doomed to be disappointed at this time, for the wind, which was previously blowing pretty stiffly, had in the inter= risen to a pie, and th© launch was consequently obliged to be deterred till the occurrence of more favourable weather. The day fol lowing, Wednesday, proving a most favourable one, it was determined that the launch should come off that day, about two o'clock; and on the gates being thrown open, the dockyard was seon crowded. At the head of the vessel a bond covered with crimson cloth was erected for the accommodation of the Commander-in-Chief, the captain, superintendent, and numerous other naval and military officers, with their ladies. Shortly before two► o'clock, the Commander-in. Chief, Vice Admiral Sir Edward King, K.C.H., arrived with his lady and daughter, and took their stations on the platform. When all was ready for knock ing out the dog•shores, a bottle of wine having been opened, Miss King, who officiated at the christen ing, drank success to the Fury, and immediately after wards broke the bottle of wine on the bow of the vessel, ar.d the dog-shores being loosened, the gallant ship glided majestically into the Medway, amid the enthu siastic cheers of the assembled spectators, and the strains of the Trafalgar's band, which was in attendance during the ceremony. The vessel was decorated with the royal standard at the main, the Admiralty flag at the fore, and the union jack at the mizen; but permission was not given, as usual, for any visitors to be launched in the ship. The arrangements of the authorities were admi rably made for the public accommodation, and all went off in a most satisfactory manner. After the launch she was taken in charge by the master attendant, and hauled into dock to be coppered. She was found to float almost on an even keel, her draught of water for ward and aft being nearly eight feet. The position on the water and general appearance was much admired. She is constructed on the design of the surveyor of th navy, and is considered an improvement on his former steam vessels by possessing a greater length and fulness of section. She has been built rather hurriedly, her keel having been laid down only in May last; her timbers had, however, been previously well seasoned. Her paddle-cases are complete, with the exception of the life-boats, with which they are to be surmounted her cabins are all fitted and painted, and her mess tables and stools are on board, so that with the exception of her machinery she is launched, almost in every respect ready for commission. The following are her principal dimensions:— Ft. In. 0 1 coals Ft. In. ; Engine-room.. 47 0 L Le e to n n 120 o Width of ditto ... perpendiculars ....

Our coast within the last few days has been again the scene of a number of peculiarly violent gales. The earlier part of last week, which had been distinguished for a re merkably hard and biting frost, was succeeded in the latter part by wind and rain of a fiercely tempestuous character. On Friday the wind blew with so much force and violence on shore, that chimney pots in various quarters were thrown from their positions, branches of trees were wrested from their parent stems, and window panes dashed to atoms. But the commotions on land were trifling to those to be seen on the bosom of the sea. Far as the eyecould reach the billows seemed to lift them selves mountains high. No vessel could leave the port of St. Ilelier's without risk of experiencing the untoward effects of their daring venture, nor could any craft safely direct its helm in quest of shelter to our harbour—the hundreds of hidden rocks which gird our shore threatening destruction to both goers out and comers in. The mails also between Jersey and England have especially expe riencedeffects of the storm. So fiercely raged the sea on Tuesday last that the mail, which should have left the island at the hour of eight o'clock the same morning, was prevented from setting sail till twelve o'clock at night, a partial calm having in the meantime supervened. The mail, also, which should have arrived in Jersey on Sunday morning early, did not make its appearance till yesterday (Monday) morning about seven o'clock. Nor is it with respect to the delay of the mails that i hin convenience has been alone felt.
