The circulation given to a statement tending to invalidate the epression of Dr. Glover's opinion in favour of Pale Ale, compels Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS to connect this remarkable dis tribution of a calumny with other insidious attacks upon their firm which they have reason to know proceed from an unworthy and unneighbourly jealously. Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS, in reply, deem it their best course to adopt the same line of conduct as in the case of the similar perversion and mutilation of Baron Liebig's meaning, so indignantly repudiated by that eminent man himself. They pub lish, therefore, without abridgement, the letter they received from Dr. Glover, (having his permission to do so) ; a letter the more valuable because it was not intended for publication, and is an unpre meditated evidence of that learned Chemist's just appreciation of Pale Ale. DR. GLOVER TO MR. ALLSOPP. " Newcastle-on-Tyne, April U. " Sir,—lt was not my intention, in writing the hasty note to The Lancet,' to cast any reflections upon, or to implicate in any way, respectable brewers of pale ale. " When I first saw the statement about the alleged use of strych nine in bittering ale, I looked upon the assertion as incredible, both on account of the price of the drug and tha symptoms it would create ; but on experiment. I found that strychnine possesses such wonderful bitterness, tha• it might perhaps be used as AN ADJUVANT at least be UNPRINCIPLED PERSONS. In short, my object was simply to show that the thing was not altogether so Impossible as it ap peared at first sight to be. " My opinion is, that hops should not enjoy the exclusive privilege of being used for bittering beer ; but I do not pretend to discuss the point with practical men. " I know there are bitters which might be used beneficially, in a medical point of view. " With regard to analysing your beer, my time is taken up, so far as analysing and chemistry are concerned, with two kinds of iu quiries—lst, those which are purely scientifle ; and 2d, those which are profitable. Ifyou wish me, in the latter capacity, to analyse and report on your beer, I, or course, can have no objection. " I have to prepare for an absence of three or four days to-morrow, and so beg you to excuse me replying to the letter of Mr. Bottingen, for which I am much obliged. " Tours, &c., " R. M. GLOVER. (Signed) " H Allsopp, Esq. " P.S. I presume you will hardly expect me to write to ' The Lancet.' However, I shall be at home on Thursday evening, and most assuredly I have no desire to say anything which could weakeu the confidence of the public in your beer. But that I am not now in the habit of drinking Bitter Beer, I should be Zed to show my confidenee by 4rinkl!ig pleritY of ite ' Messrs. ALLSOPP mid SONS beg hit refer to the letter Of Mr: HENRY ALLSOPP on this subject, in the Monthly Journal of Medical Science " for October, in the concluding paragraph of which it is said— " I inserted Dr. Glover's good-natured remark on my Bitter Beer as an incidental testimonial'— no more. I never called It a cer tificate,' nor did I apply to him, or any other med•cal gentleman, for one. lam not responsible that such a construction has been placed upon the off-hand expressions of good opinion which have heels sent to me from all quarters." Mes,rs. ALLSOPP and SONS, in conclusion, wish to draw the attention of the public and the trade to the fact, that, by this dis ingenuous system of attack and the perversions of facts gratui tously adopted, they are unwillingly drawn into that publicity the courting of which is made an accusation against them. Burton-on-Trent, Oct. 8, 1852. THE NAVY GOOD SERVICE PENSIONS. The captains' good service pensions, relinquished on the promotion of Rear Admirals Waloot and Plumridge, have been conferred on two of the senior officers on the captains' list-namely, Captain Percy Glace (1852), and Captain Char es Howe Fremantle (1826). Captain Percy Grace is the 14th senior on the list, end is the only officer who has been for years seeking employment who has not obtained either appointment, pension, or distinction. That gallant and distinguished officer Captain Ryder Burton, it is true, is senior to Captain Grace, but his severe wounds has obliged him to refrain from seeking active service. Captain Grace has served afloat 16 years. He is third son of the late Richard Grace, Esq., M.P., of Belay, Queen's County (the representive ot a family of considerable antiquity, seated in Ireland since the days of Strongbew), by Jane, daughter of the Hon. John Evans, of Bulgaden Hall, grandfather of John Evans Freke, sixth and present Lord Carbery. He is younger brother of Sir William Grace, Bart., of Grace Castle, county Kilkenny ; and also of Sheffield Grace, Esq., D.C.L., F.S.A., K.H., of Knole House, county Sussex, a gentlemen well known in the literary and antiquarian world for his pro ound and accomplished writings. This officer entered tile navy Match 7, 1801, as first class volunteer on board the Ganges, 74, Captains Thomas Francis Fremantle and George M'Kinley, under the former of whom he fought, on the 2d of the following April, at the battle of Copenhagen. On the Home, West India, American, and Irish stations, Mr. Grace was appointed to the Greyhound, 32, Captain Charles Elphinstone and Edward Thomas Troubridge, in which frigate he cruised for some time off Cherbur and then sailed for the East Indies. On his return ' to the Greyhound Mr. Grace assisted at the des truction of a Dutch armed brig under the Fort of Manado, and also at the capture of a simi lar vessel off the island of Tidore ; and on the 28th of the same month, he proved himself an officer deserving of promotion by his conduct in a smart action with a Dutch squadron, which terminated in the surren der, to the Greyhound and Harrier sloop of the Pallas frigate, and two armed and richly laden Indiamen. The Greyhound, of which he had been nominated a master's mate in November, 1806, and an acting lieutenant in June 1807, being wrecked in October, 1808, off the coast of Luconia, Mr. Grace and his companions had to per form a fatiguing march of 12 days over mountains and through rivers and wools, hitherto unpassed by Euro pean, in a state of utter destitution. They then became captives of the Spanish at Manilla, where they were de tained for a period of three months; but it was not until after a further and most cruel imprisonment of eight months at Batavia, whither they were taken by two French frigates, with whom they had unluckily fallen in while on their passage, en parole, from Manilla to Prince of Wales' Island, that they were fully restored to liberty. Being then, in September, 1809, allowed to depart in the Piedmontaise frigate, Captain Charles Foote, Mr. Gracie, whose promotion had been confirmed by the Ad miralty on the 28th of the preceding February, was shortly afterwards, on the 30th of the same month, plated in command of the boats. of that ship, and sent to reconnoitre a flotilla of 20 Malay pirates, two of whom he succeeded in capturing, alth.e ugh net without a loss of 2 men killed, and 20,including laimself severely, wounded. The effects of the injury he received he still feels, but no compensation has till now been granted to him. On the 16th March, 1811, he joined the Semiramis, 36, Captain Churl, a Richardson, in command of ono of the boats of which frigate he contributed to the capture of five French vessels anchored four miles tic the Gironde. On the morning of the 25th August he similarly assisted in taking Le Pluvier corvette, , of 16 guns and 136 men, under the bat erica of Raven, and on that occasion his handsome conduct obtained him the official thanks of his captain. Mr. Grace, on the 12th August, 1812, was appointed to the San Demingp, 74, bearing the flag on the coast of North America of Sir John Borlase Warren, under whom he evitnessed the attack upon Crony bland, &e, and nerved until promoted to the renk ot commander, on the 15 Juno, 1814. His last appointment was, on the 17th January, 1822, to the Cyrene, 20, fitting for the African station, where he cruised, between the river Gambia and the Bights of Benin and Bianfra, until Dec. 14, 1823, at which period he sailed for England, where he arrived Feb. 7, 1824, after having encountered a hurricane so violent that it bed been found necessary to throw 11 of the ship's guns overboard. He afterwards served in the Cyrene in the Mediterranean. In November, 1824, Captain Grace became senior officer in the Levant. He attained post rank Feb. 1, 1825, and on the 20th August in the same year was paid off. Captain Grace and those who had been wrecked with him in the Greyhound were taken from Manilla, to Batavia by the French frigates Can noniere and Laurel. When commanding the Cyrene he was the first who commenced the destruction of berm-- coons or slave factories on the coast of Africa. Among the vessels which were captured and detained by the Cyrene and her boats, were the Aurora, Dutch schooner, of 144 tons, 4 guns, and ' 26 men; L'Hypolite, schooner (under French colours), of 95 tons, 2 guns. and 19 men ; and the Caroline, French schooner, of 78 tons, 2 guns, and 20 men. Captain Charles Howe Fremantle is the son of the celebrated admiral who commanded the Inconstant in Hotham's action, the Seaborse at Teneriffe, and the Ganges and Neptune at Copenhagen and Trafalgar, and died a vice admiral when commander-in-chief in the Medi' erranean. He is also brother of Sir Thomas Fre mantle, Bart., Chairman of the Customs. He was born in 1800, entered the navy in 1812, and has served afloat about 22 years. He was a midshipman on board the Ramillies, 74, Captains Sir Thomas Masterman Hardy and Sir Charles Ogle; under the first of whom ho served at the blockade of New London, • assisted in occupying the islands in Passamaquoddy Bay, witnessed the born berdment of Stonington, and joined in the attack on New Orleans; was confirmed a lieutenant November 11, 1819, and continued, we believe, te serve, lat terly as signal officer to Sir Graham Moore, until advanced to the rank of commander, April 23, 1822. He was afterwards employed in the coast-guard service at Lymington, but resigned that appointment on being invested with the coramand, June 24, 1824, of the Jasper, 10, in which sloop he visited Mexico. Acquiring his present rank August 4, 1826, Captain Fremantle was selected the dtoe Cape of Goodcommand, Nov. Hp s o , l e, and B2B,tla t e he C o ha io llen th g e er E , 28, ast first Indies, whence be returned to England, and was paid off Jane 12, 1833. On May 20, 1843, he commissioned the Inconstant, 36, and commanded her for two years, when he was appointed to the Albion, 90, and paid off that ship about three years since. THE A.D.C. TO THE QUEEN. The vacant appointment of naval A.D.C. to the - Queen, vice Rear Admiral Duff, has been conferred on the Earl Talbot, C. 8., better known in the navy as Lord In g estre, from his unwearied hv e eae x ns e sd r e t l i w o a n at s for many years in the House of Commons to bring about those reforms of the shipbuilding department of the Admiralty which we t trust jnan.nla a ,v re ylB n p2 o 4e w b; being carried out in the Royal dockyards. •Cst.oeseLrptvhoti Captain Talbotd iencsoimn mn command d w o a f s born t 0 6 liao , tet l ed 81 7 7 th ; j o u b o t e ein fo e l d low h i i n s g fi , first commission Jan. the dispatches relative to o Byron; which e r ohme battleo w t eadosif, For his iahs l r B oi a 2 ihnt 6 het , Philomel, 10.

The annual annual meeting of the friends of thisjnstintion and the distribution of prizes to the pupils took plee on Tuesday last at the Music-hall, under the presidetcy of his Grace the Duke of Newcastle. Thu large hal was well filled by a respectable assemblage of lathe's an , gen tlemen, including many of the nobility, elergh an , gen try in the immediate vicinity. At a quarter-past 1 o'clock Mr. Wighimih the honorary secretary, commenced the prose dinis by reading the report, which stated that— " Since the last annual report of the council a coaplete and important change has taken place in the manaePalent of at:noels of design. The provincial schools have hiherto been under the control and direction of the masts and other officers of the London school, an arraegemot for many reasons unsatisfactory. Under the sysSaa at present adopted, all the schools of design in the ciiintran that of London included, are placed under a eenral au• thority established at Marlborough-house, entitles 'The Department of Practical Art,' and forming aecunponent pert of the Board of Trade. The two gontlemer placed at the head of this department have recently laid en official visit to Sheffield, and expressed thernseves in every respect satisfied with the management and eliciting of the school, and assured the council not only of the continuance of the present grant, but of further assiltance, on condition, however, that some steps should weedily be taken by the town to erect a building suitablefor the efficient carrying out of the extended system of art-edu cation contemplated by Government. Thataysiem em braces the universal diffusion of a knowlacigt of art throughout the entire population. The mode ,n which this system is proposed to be carried out is by the estab lishment, under the auspices of the Bstird *Trade, of elementary drawing schools throughout „kingdom, each series of schools having for its cot* ehool of 'design. - I'laaed as svenve in-thereisielklaefi , :0 „"`k creasing population, we may expect shortlylselliliterne: eons schools springing up. Is will thus be self-evident that an important and responsible position will or ought to be held by the Sheffield School of Design. The school continues to maintain the satisfactory positing it has oc cupied for some years. • The debt has increased materi ally; the attendance of pupils continues steady; the studies are carried on in the s I me manner as heretofore, and will be rendered mote complete, by the addition o f a Blass foe colour, which it is intended to establish forth with. Hitherto, such a class has been consitered unne cessary, and so long as the school was merely viewed as an adjunct to manufactures, where form does, prevails, perhaps it was. But in order to meet the extended views now entertained by the Government,' the establishment of this class becomes absolutely necessary. Of the ar tisticel progress of the school the public have abundant rinswtiittahii which a c t h examination they regard i proofs in witnessing the number of medals distributed among the pupils, and which were awarded to them at the recent exhibition of their works at Marlborough House. And the Council cannot omit the opportunity ofto le t etthw. repressing fsird:oos works 1 n o g f Government tthe 8 a tisf'etiks sent from the various schools of ornamental art in the country—an examination entrusted to Sir 0. Eastlake, P.R.A., D. Maclise, ILA., and R. Redgrave, R.A., gentleman whose high position in art entitles their decision to be regarded with the utmost attention and respect. But, in the opinion of the Council, th e ix ,„,, effi ciency of the school is to be found in the recently pub the Great Exhibition—a tea fished report of the juries of f gt atifying and conclusive testimony to the value and tom a tribunal . composed ( g )f all nations, selected for o t t i h r et hi o r n es y pm , e b ec e isat it l ri n knowledgebe distinguishesdo,fct o h a men v ip arious subj eels submitted to 99 the Council think they cannot more fitly close the present , annualreport:—` The their consideration; and. than with the following extract from that report, ClassXXl L, p .4 jury think it deserving of notice, with respect to this branch of industry (tha t of iron and hardware), that, in all the communications which have been made to them by the persons in it, they find observations commenda tory of the School o f Desi g n in Sheffield, and i expressive of the high sense t he y entertain of the services it has rendered to ornam ental art, and in p articular to the ma- ma nufactures of that place.' " The Duke of NEWCASTLE then said—Ladies and gen tlemen, before I proceed to call upon those gentlemen who have kindly undertaken to propose and second the reso lutions on this occasion, it becomes my duty to make a few observations, occupying the honourable position of your president for the day, to this crowded and most re spectable meeting. I confess that!' did somewhat hesitate to accept the honour which was proposed to me by your worthy president and fellow townsman, Mr. Barker, to occupy this chair, which has been so much more worthily filled on previous occasions, not so much on\ account ef any unwillingness on my `part to take my fair share in undertakings of this nature, but because I did feel, after this chair had been filled for some successive years by various members of the aristocracy of this nehbourhood that on this occasion, tit 7 inituudtately folhiwidg - that Urea Exhibition which I hope will give a fresh impetus, not only to schools of design, but to art and sct'ence gene nerally, you might have had occupying this ichair one of those aristocrats of art and science to whom'the country is beholden in a great measure, for the success of that Great Exhibition. (Hear, hear.) My reason is that I felt, although I had taken a deep interest in the art and sci ence of this country, and generally throughout Europe, neverthelesss I was not competent to instruct others ; and I could have wished that you might have heard from this chair such lessons as might have been impressed upon your memories, and such as might have conduced to the future success and prosperity of this school. (Hear, hear.) But if I hesitated for a moment. I felt that this at least was no concern of mine, and I was most glad to obey the call of Mr. Barker, and addition ally so, because notwithstanding the reason I have given, I al o felt that no maa professing claims to etatemanship—that no ono occupying the toosition of a legislator of this country, whether elective or heredi tarp, could not but feel the liveliest interests in those arts and sciences which they are intended to develop°. (Applause,) I do not allude to those civilizing and humanizing effects on the people of this country which such institutions are so well calculated to promote. (Hear.) Ido not allude to them—not that I undervalue them — but because I mean, when I say it, that every legislator ought to do everything in his power to pro mote those objects. lam sure that this is common ground on which we can all meet to promote and pro tect the industry of this country—to protect it in that way in which we are all agreed upon, namely, to enable that industry to compute honourably and fairly in the great race of rivalry which is now set before you. (Hear, Hear.) lam convinced that the application of art in this country, in every department of trade, has now become a matter of vital necessity, and that if you mean to carry successfully to the ends of the I earth that great trade which, to use an American phrase, you are now " driving," you must persevere in the applications of your minds and, your intelligence, and, by the assistance of your sons, do something to wards promoting those arts by which alone successful rivalry can be maintained. (Hear, Hear.) You have just heard the report of the council for the past year read to you, and I think on the whole I may, like my predecessors in this chair, offer you congratulations;on the retrospect which the report holds out to you. As regards the future, that I believe to be mainly in your own hands. We have heard in the report of the prizes awarded to the pupils brought up in this school. We have heard of the interest which that department of the Government which presides over these schools has especially mani fested in the school at Sheffield. We have heard, more over, of acts of individual liberality from individuals in this town towards the school, and I say that all these things are matters of congratulation. But let me say— for I wish not to come here to do .otherwise than to speakany mind to you—l h o p e you will forgive me if I say that my feeling of sa ti s f ac tion is not entirely unal loyed. Since I arri ve d i n this town I have visited rooms in which this S c hool of design is held, and I must fairly confess to to ywohuatthmaetyl.fdeoirniy be expected i n so great think that th e y come in and flourishing a community as that which I am now addressing. I have visited the principal room, and that is bad enough. I have visited a room which is called the geometrical school, and certainly my . fi rst impression was—ls this a place in which to educate the risinglNew tons of Sheffi e ld ? I have visited the figure room, and there I find a room on which the sun is streaming at the present moment ; and I appeal to every lover of art to tell me what the effect of such a light must be. I find a room in which every figure there placed has those false shadows fatal to the education of those who copy them, while it is utterly oat of the power of your able and intelligent master to make any other arrange ment in that building which you have at present. I say, first and foremost, you want a better room. lam sorry that is not all ; but before I make any further sugges tions let me briefly point out to you the financial accounts. You have received 600/. a-year from the Go vernment, and the whole contribution which this town has made is 2001. Now, when I tell you that the whole of the Government grant is expended in the payment of masters (and that they are not overpaid you will admit), and that the means for all other pur poses of the school—for the purchasing of works of art, for the increase of the library—are dependent on that small sum of 200/., I think you will say that you are not giving a fair trial to the experiment of these schools, and are thwarting and crippling the efficiency which may be expected from them. I say, then, first of all, you want a better room and a better library. You ought to have a fund out of which to devote 501. a-year to the increase of the library and for the purchase of works of art, accessible to all the students, which form an important element in their study ; and you want also, —and this I would impress not merely upon those who take an interest in the school, but the public generally —a museum of art, accessible not onl y to the stud e n ts, but the whole population—a mus e u m of ar t that may be an appendage to the school, but nevertheless supported by the public ; and which, if exertions are used, les) , b- founded, I have no doubt, by private individuels in the first instancy. When I talk of building a school in the town of Sheffield, do consider how small the sacrifice l (Cheers.) Let me call to a your compared mie de thewit h fact the gain. that out of some 40 or 50 great s firms in this town—l am not now alluding to minor establishments and to individuals who would contri ute—that out of 40 or 50 first-class establishments there are many which could contribute 1001., which would be a mere drop in the ocean of that enormous capital which is turned over every year in this great place, but which wculd enable you to carry on this school in a manner sufficient and creditable to you all. I hope that any prejudices that may have existed among some of your manufacturers have been removed. I rejoice to know that on the last occasion of the meeting of this selhool one of those that confessed himself, on that platform, ,as having been heretofore luke warm to the interests of the ee.hoel, has since taken a lively interest in it, end, having been successful in the Exhibition in London, has acknowledged that to the stu dents of this school he is indebted for the success he has attained. Those words ought to snake a great impression on thee , who may be now, as he once was, lukewarm. Ladies and gentlemen, I wish to look on this es a plain scatter of business, I say, then, subscribe your money for objects of this kind in the same way that you would pay money for the insurance of your goods. If you mean to insure the success Bed continuance of your trade, you must adopt those means by which you will be enabled to secure yourselves from the success of other countries, end even other towns in this country. And you must bear in mind, that, if you lag behind, they will speedily pass ycu. Look across the water. It is n ot long since, in this town, there were great apprehensions that your trade was about to bo transplanted to America. Not your trade, but the produce of your trade does, indeed, flow into America. (Hear, hear.) The noble Duke then alluded to the increasing appreciation for artistic excel lence in America. If (ha said) you go into any great establishment for the manufacture of silver goods in America, it is ten to one that you will find one of the most elegant pieces of workmanship was an English order. (dear, hear.) Now, gentlemen, you may applaud when you. leder it, read that the - sum of 6001. yearly has been contributed by the Government to this school. Do tett`Orfalyetoiretaihda onethinw Depend- uponeit, ,here-:is' feeling in the Legislature of this country. and throughout :he country itself, that these contributions ought not to be extended towards these institutions generally. But while congratulating you upon this addition to the orizes, I cunoot forbear expressing some regret that lhose scholarships which were lately introduced have been in some degree unsuccessful—not, I believe, from any inherent fault in their establishment, but because they have not been adequate in amount, and because the time has not, perhaps, yet arrived at which their value can be thoroughly appreciated. I think that this system of scholarships will be most invaluable, and I will tell you why. One question that has been asked with regard to schools of design is this :—Why, you are educating some 200 or 300 pupils in drawing and in a knowledge of the flee arts ; what is to become of thorn hereafter ? Gentlemen, we propose here to mstruct in art, but we do not profess to make artists. But the objection has sometting in it ; and I believe the establishment of scholarship is one of the most effectual means of rectifying teat defect, namely, that you are educating up to a certain point a number of oung men, and not enabling them much to go beyond that point. Why not ? Because almost the whole of those pupils are engaged for 10 hours a day in their usual avocations, and they go to school for one or two hours in the Pvenitig, earassed and worn out in their physical connition, and with their minds but little in that state which enables them to appreciate the beautiful or to embrace the lessons there given them ; and so it m owwwvebh u echio s reo t i mblhe: had idb e eny . .prt designers eofae ß e, tioleg a l wadont contribution ytirsibusf you in their o o aea u x r focafei i lr n lae s ene t oicatmeffiu p t ae i ei o net n diot ti othadnhe, would amountsuh scholarships oaer superiority nsha thoseib p s e them to devote more time to those studies, and to divest themselves of a portion of that labour which stands in the way of the attainment of excellence —in that b case you would be elevating those few to ouanadre producing, artists for(L (Loud promotion of high art and artistic excellence in the various fabrics of the country, your English Rafaelle or your Csllini, you will beat the same time training up a race of men, who will be enabled to make hereafter the fabrics of this country ae distinguished as those who, working under the auspices of the great men to whom I have referred, have left to this day works, though greatly inferior to theirs, yet, I am afraid, superior to many which are fre quently produced as good works in the present day. For many years, and even up to the present day, to a certain extent, these schools have been condemned, and we have been told that they have been an entire failure. I think this has arisen from an ignorant impatience — from an idea that they are to start all at once into the full growth of manhood, and that the results are to be seen in the year following their institution. Anything connected with the arts and sciences must be a work of time as well as of labour; and whilst I certainly deny the failure of these schools, I say, on the other hand, that, considering the difficulties they have had to contend with, they have done a great deal, and in some instances even have done wonders. You compare them with similar establishments in France, but look at the schools et - aeons, nevrea. and various others in the territories of France, and consider how long those ,have been esta blished. That of Lyons has been established perhaps 100 years, and I believe is not by any means the oldest school of that kind in France. And can you expect from these infant establishments the same results that you get from those which have existed for so many years, and which have been supported by very large contributions of money from that source which in France does everything—the public funds ? I say, then, that there is no Royal road to art either in this country or any other. You cannot create either the taste or the power of artistic excellence in a day, or year, or 10 years. It is true that in ancient mythology we read that Minerva came forth from the brains of Jupiter an once in a full and complete panoply of arts as well as of arms ; bat I think that all our ex perience in these prosaic times will convince us that, however great may be the genius of our people, we must not expect Minerva either in schools of design or in any other branch of manufacture or skill, or in any of the different walks of life around us. I had hinted place, I believe that they had, j c u o s n t te n n o d w w t I will not say oppositi on, but which is known as passive ihteb.diffiTheuttieesfirwathich these schools have had to ancadeel incompetentinthe different to k ee p trades tbeir position, —men ist who , from an d were afraid of the competition which thes e r esistance, se h oo ls were about to r aise u p a g ainst them. Man y h av e seen the error o f their wa y s, and have ado p ted t h es e schools es the means of im p rovin g themselves. m were the themselves That difficulty, therefore, is being removed. But the manufacturers of Sheffield will forgive me if I say that there has been another difficulty in the way, viz., the want of an appreciation of art, and of proper encourage ment on the part of the manufacturers. (Cheers.) I believe there has been some mistake in the course which had been followed in this country with regard to schools of design. If we have not begun at the wrong end, we have begun at one end when we ought to have begun at two ; for I believe that you gentlemen manufacturers, as well as all others who stand on this platform, or are sitting among you below, all equally want educating in art. (Cheers.) I wish to deal with this subject, addressing a Sheffield audience, not in high-flown language, but as a matter of business ; and I say, that in this, as well as other trades, the laws of supply and demand equally apply ; and you have been' creating a supply, and have not been fostering a de mand, because you have not been educating the manu facturers to understand, to appreciate, and to employ the clever, able, anti cultivated workmen. Igo further, and say that there has been a defect in the education of those classes which are the purchasers of those articles, and that those in the highest walks of life want that amount of education in art which shall enable them to appreciate that which is excellent, and to purchase that which is good and beautiful instead of that which is vicious and ugly. (Cheers.) I do not mean by this that they are all to become pupils in these different schools of design, although I do think that there are many who live within the circuit of these schools who would do well to enlist themselves and their children in them. There are plenty of hours in the day for such classes ; but I say my noble friend on my right, and I and every body else—though, perhaps, some of us may be a little too old now, but at any rate our sons—ought to be sufficiently educated in art to appreciate that which the skilled workman shall produce. (Hear, hear.) Those who cannot attend schools of design ought to be edu cated in art at those places of instruction to which they `resort. In all those elements of instruction which are given in our public schools, I should be glad Loth e some means of education in art which shall give t full appreciation of what is beautiful--some means of art-education which should accbmp lish the ob ject in those schools ay, and in -the universi ties themselves—which we are attempting to give the artisans in the schools in the support of of which we are this day assembled. I have beard an objection raised to this. Do not believe that lam for, raatsl-- though you may be astonished at the objection, _ yet I ing up giants for the purpose of sl a y in g assure you I have gravely hear d it objected to the ex tending of art education, that wherever youperceive t e arts greatly extended, studied , and a ppreciated y all classes, there you will, in tha t ver y fact, invariably therh ; per ceive the signs of the decline and fall of empires. Now, I utterly disbelieve this statement. I believe that any thing more fallacious n ever was produced. It arises from a little inaccuracy i n chronology—a superficial and insufficient reading o f history. I say that, on the contrary, you will fi nd that empires have thriven and have stood upon their greatest eminences when the arts have been the highest—when all have appreciated them. You will find that the arts have declined, and a vicious' taste and style of meretricious ornament and faulty construction have been introduced, in all instances, in the gradual decay and demoralizations of kingdoms. (Cheers.) I need not carry you back to the early As syrian and Egyptian empires; but if you study the re cords of those kingdoms you will find the facts I state to be true ; and if you visit the remains of those king doms you will see with your own eyes the truth of the assertion, and that everything that is vicious and bad was erected in those times when the Governments were fading, arel their kingdoms vanishing from the face of the cart's. The same will anely with regard to Athens rind dtisitlic home. Will ? s Will an anybody any one tell me that the one tell me that the works of Pericles led to the downfall of Ath ens —l mean hi s glo rious beauties of the Parthe non , an d a ll the other mar [PRICE SD. nificent buildinge which even now astonish tre eyes and excite the envy and admiration of those who cannot imitate them—will any one tell me that that was what led to the end of Athen s? (Cheers) Far from it. But it was soon after that time that increased licen tiousness and the thirst for unjust war and undue eg grandizement led to the dowef ill of Athens. And I behave but for the n'tection which was devoted to the arts in that city that its destruction wou ld have come before. (Cheers.) And if the fame of that empire, and the fame of au inaividual is of any value, let Me compere tho state at this moment of Athens and the pinnacle of repute on which she • still stands, although, denuded of those who founded that city—let me compare that state and that city with the more rigid and stern people s.f Spurts, whose town at this moment can scarcely be die corned—in fact, there ere disputes as to the position in which it stood. (Cheers.) I have been led into these observations with a view of enforcing upon you the im portant results of artesducation for all classes. It would be most valuable as ertahling you, the manufacturers, and the workmen, to exercise such knowledge as y Ott may , p assess, and such taste as you may possess, in the pro duction of good articles. It will enable you to discard that odious taste for fashion and novelty which is new injuring the trade of this and many other towns. (Hear, hear.) It is this vicious taste for novelty which lPads manufacturers always to b© runri g of sr sure hng new—which mattes them, instead of cooking for what is beautiful and good, only seek that which is novel, and, discarding that which is really of good Lino sound construction, look only to some tawdry,ornament or to some form, or adaptation of a form, which has hitherto been unappropriated to any purpose to which either nature or art, or sterling, except the morbid brain of such men, ever intended such article to be ap plied. I had intended, had time permitted, to read one or two passages from a book. Let me commend it to your attention. It is the report of Mr. Redgrave, to whom not only schools of design, but art in general, is deeply indebted. While I depiecato novelty and a ser vile following of fashion, forgive me if I also deprecate what'mhy justly be called the robbery of French aed other designs. I will not enter upon any moral consid eration. I will not say whether this kind of robbery is more justifiable than any other, and whether those who would scorn to appropriate their neighbour's goods, think that they may fairly appropriate the result of their neighbour's bruin, and by picking to pieces the works of French designers, and putting them into some new and fantastic form, produce what they call some new English designs, and perhaps register them accordingly. Let me impress upon you to discard this practice, and to emplo:, instead, those men to give designs for you which shall en. able you to enter the race of competition, You will have already found that lam no flatterer. I hope that what I have said are truths; Waif they are Vie hs, I am afraid they are somewhat unpalatable. But I have not ye; done. I rejoice in the great success of the iron and steel trade of this town, but regret the same cannot be said se the silver trade. It is iu this branch of the trade the the services of the school of design have been under valued and repudiated, and I firmly believe, looking to the admirable qualifications of precis:a, metals for works of art—looking to the fact, which I think all must feet, that there is something peculiarly inappropriate, I had almost said disgusting, in seeing in a material of this value a mere effort to amass a huge quantity of silver with a view to expense, entirely repudiating all taste and delicacy of touch ;—wnen we look to what use been done in the works in precious metals in all former ages, that they have a thousand beaudes, we must feel it is a dis grace to this town and to the country that they should not bring the art in this respect to a higher pitch of ex cellence than they have. I feel that I have occupied much more of your time than I ought. But before I call upon my noble friend (Lord Milton) to propose the first resolution, let me beg of you not to leave this ball with out a due impression of the importance of this school Let me ask you not to go home thinking no more about the school or about its results till the next meeting shall recall you to this hall, but let me ask you, and espe cially those members of the fair sex who have assem bled here in such numbers to-day, and proved by their attendance the interest they take—let me call upon them at their fireside to enforce the merits of his school upon those who may be absent to day, whether hus bands, brothers, or fathers, and so to exercise that influ ence on behalf of this institution—if, indeed, they are persuaded of its excellence—that when you next meet, its funds may be in a different position, and that we may be enabled to boast that one of the great objects for which the liberality of the Government is given is in a fair course of being realized. In these arts, education is no longer one of the luxuries of life, but one of the greatest necessities for all classes. Ido not wish to place this particular branch of education higher than it deserves, but it occupies a high position, apart from financial and commercial considerations. It is one im portant element in that great structure of moral and in tellectual discipline of which religion must indeed 13 the basis, but of which the ornamental arts are the apex. I believe, if you will just examine this subject, you will find that those who, in whatever walk of lite, have de voted themselves to the studies of the fine arts, have been among not only the best fathers, the best brothers, and the best sons in the community , but also among the best and wisest members of the great family of man. The noble Duke resumed his seat amid loud cheers. The resolutions were then proposed and agreed to. Thanks were voted to the masters on the motion of Dr. F. Baesesoes, seconded by Mr. RIDGE. Mr. YOUNG Mumma., head master of the school, in returning thanks, remarked upon the establishment of a School of Practical Art at Marlborough House, and ob her not attached y t o h f e e h the short t best eed ob served upon the great responsibility that was assumed by the managers of this department in exhibiting speci mens and most elegant and appropriate design, bti t also others pithyof various sto which descriptions, they had criticism, " bad taste," " false principles," &c.; and he believed they had been driven to do that by the obs tinacy of some of the manufacturers, who being practical men, would not allow themselves to be judged by any but men acquainted with the trade. The noble Chairman then called up Mr. W. a TIIIRTON, who had obtained the prize of ten guineas fur a design for on article of Sheffield manufacture. Ir. handing him the purse of sovereigns, the noble duke shook the young man cordially by the hand. The Montgomery Prize was awarded to Mr. C. GREEN. and, at the request of the noble duke, the venerable poes presented it himself. Iu handing it to the successful candidate Mr. Montgomery said, "Let me give you a word of advice. Always do your best, and you will d better every time, and that is the way to succeed." The various prizes were then awarded by the chair man, and the meeting separated. -.1 whose peak rise s into tin? regions of perpetuill s nsiw.

I; is matte] of notoriety that the Emir had stipulated as condition of his surrender that be 'should be sent with his family to Alexandria or ,St. Jean d'Acre. Gen. de La moriciere, then commatelatit of the province of Oran., accepted that proposition., which was ratified by the. Duke d'Aumale, the Go vernor. General of Algeria. The Government of King. Louis Philippe received on December 31, 1847, the news of Abd-el-Katter'e. s urrender, and of hie -arrive! at Toulon.

This is true enoneh as far as it goes, but very false if put forward as an a.e:vount of the whole matt sr, Let us endeavour to auppfy the omission. On the 17th of January, 1848, the government of Louis Philippe was questioned by the Marquis de Buissy, in the Chamber of Peers, during the debate on the address, as to' its inteneion of ra'ilying the treat) entered into with Ahd el-K eler. M. Guizot, in his reply, instead of declaring frankly and clearly that most undoubtedly the Government would ratify -ne treaty to whieh the Duke ci'Auinale h elven cis approbation, decleeed that the GoverntLenc, wa s of opinion that it did not he'ong to a General-in-Chief, even were he one of the king's sons, to engage poli 'ically, witbout reservation or exa:ninetion, the king's ,overnment, and that "in the present question the government preserved and intended to preserve the full liberty of examination and &el-ion." If these words meant anythi;ng, they implied the possi.. bility of the non ratification of the treaty. The Prince de la Moscowa, in the same sitting, disappro v . ing of the language thus used by the bon. Minieter of Foreign Affairs, brougVit forward this dilemma : —"Now, of two things, cve: either you consider Abd-el-Kader as a robber—as a pirate, or you look upon him as a hostile general, who has been conquered. In the first case, have him hanged ; in the second, treat him according to the law o f nations." General Fabvier, also, spoke strongly against the doctrine which M. Guizot had laid down, and in concluding nis remarks, said, "There is now neither further ratification nor negotiation to make—Abd-el-Kader is in your hands, he cannot enter into any further ne gotiatioo. Gentlemen, beware of touching that pre cious thing, the honour of France. Remember King John, Francis 1., and Henry IV., those first gentlemen of their kingdom! I will only add one word more—if you touch tlee honour of France, adieu to victory !" M. Guizot then declared that " the Government had every confidence that it was possible for it to coin- , Bate respect for the engagement made with Abd-el- Kader with what was due to the safety of France.. It was that task which the government had proposed to itself, and when it thought that it had accomplished it, the chamber would decide whether the conclusion come to was well or.ill arrived at. The language of M. Guizot produced the most painful effect on the public mind, so that when the question came on in the Chamber of Deputies, in the debate on the address in that house, M, Guizot found it necessary to alter his tone. The matter was alluded to on Feb. 5, 1848, when the Marquis de Larochejaquelin, in his remarks, observed, " that many persons were struck with the difference which existed between the engagements entered into by the Duke d'Aumale, and the conduct pursued by the government. "How does it happen," asked M. de Larochejaquelin, " that when .an engagement of honour has been entered into by General Lamoriciere and the Duke. d'Aumale, Governor-General of Algeria, the government now retains Abd-el-Kader in a fort and leaves us in uncertainty as to whether the word of France will be kept or not ?" M. Guizot replied that " his answer would be the same in that Chamber as in the other; He had in the Chamber of Peers reserved the right of the government to ratify or not to ratify the resolutions of its generals, and of the Duke d'Aumale like the rest; and that right being so reserved, the government considered it its duty to conciliate the engagement entered into by the Duke d'Aumale with the safety of the state. It was true chat the Duke had promised And•el-Kader tin it he should be taken to Alexandria or to St. Jean d'Acre ; such were the terms of the promise—nothing more, nothing leas." The report of the sitting states that these senti ments were received by the chamber with murmurs. A. Guizot continued—St. Jean d'Acre was out of he question, but, as Alexandria, belonged to Egypt, the wovernment would eater into arrangements with the Egyptian Government to allow the Emir to be sent there. The discussion there dropped. Now, who does not see that if Louis Philippe's government had at first frankly ratified the treaty entered into, Abd el-Rader would not have been detained for nearly five years in confinement? The whole fault, the world has always thought, lay with the hesitatio_n the f the government in ratifying the engagement of Duke d'Aumale.

LAUNCH OF THE HYDASPES SCREW STEAMER. On Saturday afternoon another of those splendid 1,800 ton screw-ships, built by ;Mare and Co. for the General Screw Steam Mail Company, was launched from the extensive building premises at Orchard Wharf, Blackwell. The chairman of the company, Mr. Ellis; the manag ing director, Mr. Fox, M.P. ; Captain Ford, Mr. P. Holt, M.P. ; Sir W. S. Harris, and many naval officers, were present, and admired the quiet business-like way in which the noble structure was sent into the water by Mr. Waterman, Mr. Mare's naval architect. She was named the " Hydaspes," by a niece of the worthy chair man, as she glided o ff smoothly and gracefully into Bow Creek, amidst the cheers of the assembled spectators. She was afterwards taken in tow and immediately floated round to the East India Dock. This is the fifth of that class of vessels that Mr. Mare has sent into the water, and it is worthy of remark as reflecting the greatest credit on British skill and enter prise,t that this is the fifth ship that has been built within the last twelve months, and three of them are now actually employed in conveying her Majesty's mails to India—namely, the Queen of the South, Indiana, and Calcutta—whilst another will be ready to embark the mails at Plymouth for the Cape and Calcutta on the 15th of next month. The public are frequently surprised with paragraphs detailing the mighty enterprise ot Yankee ship. builders and the extensive orders ot Ame rican steam Companies ; but if English writers, and naval men. too, would only look at home and within halt-a-dozen miles of London they would see greater reasons for public wonder and professional admiration. We do not think that the fact has a parallel in the his tory of shipbuilding in any country, that for one com pany, one shipbuilding firm, has in the course of twelve months launched 9,000 tons of ships, and has nearly built 3,600 tons more. This is a truth which is stranger than foreign exaggeration or fiction. The Hydaspes will have engines of 300-horse power, by James Watt and Co late, Bolton and Watt. We ne,ed scarcely add, th at M r. M are rece ived the congratulations of the company for launching so speedily so fine, a noble-looking, seagoing craft, and that t,he, company was complimented on the great and use f u l addition to their excellent fleet of screw-steamers.
