SCREW SHIPS OF THE LINE.—We believe that the Admiralty will very properly adapt their ships already on the stocks for the application of screw engines, be fore converting ships already afloat. This is the best economy. THE ARMAMENT AND MASTING OF THE FROLIC. — In copying the following from the Nara/ and 11111aary Gazette, we may remark that the time is gone by for spending money on mere sailing brigs. If the Frolic is in a condition to be worth large repairs, and she has the capacity, it would be more advisable to convert her into a screw-sleep at once. We must have no more experimental yacht-building for men of-war . service. It is well known that the conver sions of sailing-ships have been most expensive affairs, and it is a question worthy of consideration whether it would not bo more advisable, as well es more economical to build new ships than to al:er and convert old vessels:— " Our Portsmouth correspondent has informed us that the Frolic, 16-gun brig. and 510 tons, is under repair in the dockyard, in consequence of the decayed state of the stern. Here is en opportunity of lengthening this vessel a few feet by the bow, in order to increase her tonnage to that of the Helena's class, also of 16 guns, but of 550 tons. The present armament of the Frolic is that of the Helena—viz,, 14 ne diem 32-pounders, and two long and the mastieg very nearly of the same dimensions. Hence the ebvteus necessity ct ;increasing her tonnage, by h ngttiening the bow to that of the Helene, to enable her to ccrry the proportionate weight of metal and gueeral equipment ;or to reduce the armament d massing to thost, of the Pilot, of 12 guns, and of 482 tons burden. That the Frolic's qualifications, as a power ful vessel of war, in calibre, stowage of provisions and water, accornodation for cfticers and ship's company, and space at quarters, are acknowledged and proved to be cepa], if not greater, than the brigs of larger tonnage, all admit; but we believe that her last ordnance and masts in the Mediterranean, were considered out of pro portion to her tonnage, however well she carried them in weather short of a heavy gala or squall, and which caused her to roll uneasily in a sea-way, and probably to lag ber sailing. We will. therefore; as the Frolic is shortly to be brought forward for commission, offer an opinion, that if her four fcremost and two aftormoat medium guns were exchanged for six 32-pounder car ronades, leaving the two long 32's, and eight medium 22's, taking away five tons of ballast, and winging up a portion of the remainder, to ease the rolling, and giving her the Pilot's masting, she would prove herself superior in every essential as a 16-gun brig of war for all services and all weathers to any other in the British fleet, though 50 tons less than the largest and more expensive class." PORTSMOUTH, Nov 8. Fairy, screw steam-tender, Master-Commander Welsh, wont out of Portsmouth harbour yesterday, as far as Cowes. She is making a series of trials to test the quality of a peculiar sort of coals. Encounter, 14, screw corvette, Captai❑ O'Callaghan, was inspected in Portsmouth harbour yesterday morning, by the Commander-in-Chief, Admiral Sir Thomas,Briggs, G.C.M.G., and her crew examined in gunnery by Capt. Chads, C.B. She afterwards got up her steam, and proceeded to Spitheed, and saluted the flag, and anchored at Spithead. Leander, 50, Captain King, is to undergo a refit, she commenced stripping at Portsmouth yesterday morning. There are a large number of vessels outward-bound at anchor at the Motherbank, in consequence of the strong and westerly wind. The American packet Northumber land has put back. THE ADVENTURES OF THE WELLINGTON IN SEARCH OF HER EQUIPMENT. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—Tho column of the Times headed " Naval In telligence," had, a few days since, an Admiralty piece of intelligence, which will make any man of ordinary intel ligence smile. It may bo called the prospective adven tures of a vessel in search of her engines, and expensive adventures they are likely to be. That vessel is the Duke of Wellington, now in Portsmouth, but built in Pembroke Dockyard. The vessel is built in one kingdom and the machinery is to be made in another,—nay, even the masts cannot be put into her where she is built. To fetch and carry her engines a large vessel is to bo employed, and she Is to be towed by another, a steamer of considerable power, up and down the Irish and English Channels at the stormiest period of the year. Four trips of nearly a month each, including stoppages, are necessary to so complish the delivery Clyd© to of the engines, and their attendant mechanics must be conveyed trcm the C Portsmouth at a considerable expense. How many thousand pounds will bo spent, and how much risk run, no one will ever know ; they are matters with which the dockyard authorities have little to do ; and if the qucs tioa be asked whit men there are who, having to build a ship, do not sit down end count the cost, we can show them, at least in the builders of our Government vessels. Look at such jobs iu any light and they are shameful. We have expended vast sums in steam factories, docks, basins, and all the appliances for building a steam navy, and when a geed-siz sd engine is wanted we have to send 500 miles for it. If the necessity of such a step Was known hefoichsui why was not ihs isuilding of the ship and coustruetion of her machinery intrusted to ono hand, and done not onj niers efficiently, but tar more cheaply? There aro no filler sassels tifleet, in build or machiutry, than mote; Lutued out by C;iyde builo e.'s. There are . Jr , o erszy tubs rolling ab out on t h e f our seas so thoroughly bad as those turned oa t o f our d oc ky a rds; and even a list of such iec a p a bl es as the Hydra, t he and the Greenock, wou ld crow d your colu Vulcan, and am, Sir,.; curs truly, J. 11. R. THE BRAZILS.—By the Reindeer, Captain H un t, arrived at Liverpool from Paraiba, we have a fortnight's later intelligence from Pernambuco.

Many a burst of merriment has echoed above " Hood's Comic Annual," from the lips of all classes. For many a year he cheered our Christmas firesides with racy humour, that never wearied by its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was he known as the PoPt of Mirth: but the higher development of his genius and the nobler purpose of his muse were shown in such glorious hymns as " The Song of the Shirt" and the " Bridge of Sighs." Those who have read either of these poems will acknow ledge that such a man deserves to have a mark upon his sleeping place, so that it may be found witt‘out the help of a grave-yard servast, and all who have laughed at his inimitable wit, or sighed over his human tenderness, are now earnestly solicited to spare what they can in aid of a purpose which is alike praiseworthy in the living and due to the dead. For the furthering of this design, the following gentlemen, mem. bers of the Whittinrro Club, have formed themselves into a Corn. mitten : Mr. J. Balthur Mr. R. W. Roberts Mr. Campbell Cl ar k e Mr. W. Strudwieke Mr. H. Roscoe St. John Mr. Edward Coppi ng Mr. J. Passmor e Ed war d s Mr. George Waller Mr. H. C. Magui re Mr. John Watkins, and Mr. C. S. Middleton Mr. G. W. YaPP. At the request of these gentlemen, Miss Eliza Cook has consented to be Treasurer to the fund, and Mr. John Watkins to be Honorary Secretary. Subscriptions Will be received by Mr. William Strudwicke, at the Whittington Club, Arundel-street, Strand ; at the office of Eliza Cook's Journal, 3, Raquet-court, Fleet-street ; by Miss Eliza Cook, 54, Great Ormonde-street, Bloomsbury ; sued by Mr. John Watkins, 34, Parliament-street, Westminster.

EX PARTE COPELAND IN RE COPELAND, A.BANKRUPT. This was an appeal from the decision of Mr Steven son, the commissioner, whereby he had refused to the bankrupt his certificate altogether, on the ground that he had, within a twelvemonth before the adjudication, lost more than 200/. upon a contract for the purchase and sale of stock in a railway company, and that therefore he had no power to grant a certificate, by reason of the 201st section of the Bankrupt Law Consolidation Act, 1849. By that suction it is enacted that no bankrupt shall bo entitled to a certificate of conformity under the Act if each bankrupt shall have lost, by any sort of gaming or wagering, in one day, 201., or within one year next preceding the issuing of the fiat or filing of the ' petition of adjudication of bankruptcy, 200 L, or if he shall within ono year next preceding the issuing the fiat, or the filing of the petition, have lost 2001. by any contract for the purchase or sale of any Government or other stock, where such contract was not performed within one week after the contract, or where the stock bought or sold was not actually transferred or delivered in pursuance of such contract. It appeared that in Feb ruary, 1850, the bankrupt contracted to purchase sixty shares in the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway Company, which contract was carried over by successive continuations t the last of which was dated ,in, April,.lBsl. The loss arising ultimately upon tifeAran section, including commission and the various sums paid for oantango, appeared, upon the estimate most favour able to the bankrupt, to have been 2101., which, if com mission were excluded, would be reduced below the 2001. The question was whether, under the circumstances, the transaction came within the terms of the section of the act. Lord Justice Lord Cranworth was of opinion that the charge for commission must be included in the gross amount of loss. He was clearly of opinion that this was a loss of 200/. upon a contract for the purchase and sale of stock within the meaning of the words—" Govern ment or other stock," occurring in the statute. Lord Justice Knight Bruce said—lf there was any distinction between railway stock and railway shares, this would certainly be railway stock, and therefore, in every view of the case, the decision of the commissioner was the right one. The petition of appeal was then dismissed with costs. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—Nov. 7. STORY V. STORY.-SUIT FOR THE RESTITUTION OF [PRICE SD. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARYLEBONE.—Anne Campbell, a female of re spectable appearance was again examined on a charge of stealing jewels, the property of Mrs. Julia Ann Phillips. It was stated on the last examination that the pro. party had been found in the possession of the accused, who attempted to justify her conduct by stating that a t i h n e a conven. When the she had iatended t o rea li ze it i n or d er t o raise the means of placing Miss Phillip s , d aug ht er o f th e p r osecutrix, and who, through h er i ns t rumen t a li t y, h a d b e come a C n commenced, the magistrate de sired that the accused, who was allowed a seat should lift her veil. Mr. Templeman, her solicitor, objected to this course, considering that his client should not be compelled to do so for the sake of gratifying the morbid curiosity of a crowded court, and thus made an object to be gazed at. Mr. Broughton with considerable warmth, desired that his order should he obeyed. The veil of the prisoner was accordingly raised. Lockerby, who, upon the previous examination, stated the circumstances under which the accused was appre hended, now said, on cross-examination—While I was searching for the jewels at the house previously named, her solicitor came into the room, and said I should find them in the crucifix-box. I was Mlking to the mistress of the house at . this time. I understood that young Mr. Templeman had received his information from Miss. Campbell, the prisoner. The lady of the house took the bpi containing the jewels from a trunk and handed them to me; she had asked me it it was not possible that the Misses Phillips had taken the jewels, but this was after Miss Campbell herself had made a similar remark, not before. Miss Campbell asked me it the Misses Phillips had been questioned about the matter, and begged of me to search tho house; she did not express the slightest unwillingness that the search should be made. Mr. Templeman, a solicitor for the accused, questioned Lockerby as to a pocket-book belonging to Miss Camp bell, and which he had found in her possession, con taining several letters and other papers, and which he suggested should be given up either to Miss Campbell or her solicitor. In answer to Mr. Wontner, Lookerby said that the female searcher at the station-house had found on the person of the prisoner the pocket-book and letters al luded to, which had been given into a safe keeping. He lost sight of them for a short time last Monday when he had given them to young Mr. Templeman for perusal prior to the case being investigated. He returned them to him and said he had looked through them; he had also let him see them one day since, either Thursday or Friday last. Mrs. Phillips, the prosecutrix, a lady apparently be tween 40 and 50 years of age, and who was attired in deep mourning, deposed that she now resided at 7, Dox's fields, Southernhay, Exeter. The prisoner had been a visitor at her house in Albert -street, Camden-town, with her (prisoner's) brother. Mr. Broughton—How many did your family consist of? Mrs. Phillips—Three daughters and ono son; the eldest daughter is of age, my son is a minor. Mr. Broughton—Have your daughters been brought up in the Protestant religion? Prosecutrix—Yes, sir, the late Mr. Phillips, my hus band, was a clergyman of the Established Church. By Mr. Templeman—Oa the 19th October last I went to Exeter, and previously thereto I placed certain jewels under the care of Mrs. Campbell, the prisoner's mother. I went out of town, and on my return I found that my jewellery was gone. On the 28th of October Mrs. Camp bell returned to mo the several cases. I opened them and found that they were empty. I gave information of the robbery to Mr. Templeman, jun., end he communi cated with the police. The jewellery produced by the serjeaLt is here. By Mr. Wontner-1 had another sot of jewels which {were given by me to my youngest daughter. Miss. Campbell, the prisoner, urged me to do so. She did not urge me to give the other two sets to my eldest daughters; they had b , haved to me exceedingly ill. Some other evidence was gone into in reference to the case, and Mr. Wontner said that his client was quite willing to abide by the decision of a jury, being conscious that upon her case being brought before a jury, she would be acquitted of the charge. Mr. Broughton said he looked upon the case divested of Catholicism or Protestantism entirely, and it must be dealt with in another court, to which the prisoner would be sent for the robbery. The prisoner, who by the advice of her solicitor re served her defence, was fully committed fJr trial. Bail was taken for her appearance. The following, letters, which were found upon the ac cused when she was taken into custody, were several times referred to in the course of the examination, the whole of them addressed to the prisoner. One of them ran thus: "My dear Madam e —l would hare thanked you for your very kind letter before, but I have been considering and asking others whether there was any hope of being able to net on your advice. Mrs. Powell is exceedingly angry with me for having introduced poor Clara to the priest who received and confessed her. I can therefore do nothing as her co-eperator, as Clara's mother seems absolutely necessary. I had been with Clara at the 'Home.' I know her previously. I met her one day as ahe was walking, and begged of her to go with me and see a priest. She did so, and was received by the ' Mother Superior.' I was too late for the post then; but Miss Langston, knowing from one of the children that Clara had gone with me, wrote or sent to Mrs. Powell a most ridiculous story of Clara having been car ried off by force and imprisoned. Mrs. Powell came here next day in terror, and distress, and great anger. Clara was at church for her confession. Atter her return, her mother and the Mother Superior' prevailed on her to go back and see Dr. Pusey. Clara, however, protested to the last that she would be firm in the faith, her mother saying, ' Clara, if you do not go, you and I aro two.' Iu the course of the next week, she received Protestant communion, and towards the end of it, I believe on the Friday, she went to Devonport. She was to have com municated in the Catholic church, in the presence of Our Lady of Mercy, on the 24th of September, and that oc curred in the week she was at the time between leaving there and going to Devonport. I tell you these facts in case any opportunity should open that you may know how she came there. Mrs. Powell's address is, CAT nail's Lymineton, Hampshire ; ' at pres e nt s he i s i n Lon don, I\To. 1, Upper Wimpcle street, Cavendish-square. I am myself on the eve of entering a foreign convent, but Mrs. Hope has promised me to be ready to help Clara, if there should be any opportunity; her address is 17, Mon tagu-square. She is not personally known to Clara, and has been interested in her through others. I congratu late you most heartily on having escaped from the dread ful situation you were placed in, and I feel I can never he thankful enough to Almighty God for release from the Home.' I have the names of several of Miss Sellon'e sisters, and, perhaps, being so few at the Home,' you may have heard more of Sister Charlotte,' Sister Harriett is unfitted iu mind and body for such a system. " Believe me, my dear Madam, yours truly, CHARLOTTE C. WLITE. " Whitsun-ove, 1852, Vicarage-place, Kensington." "My dear Madam—l cin afraid you must have thought me very remiss in not answering your letter, and thanking yon for the kind interest you have ex pressed in my affairs, but really I have had so much to do that time has failed me. I have taken my resolution, not lightly, but at:er much thought, I can quite under stand that, after having just escaped from Miss Selloti's, 3ou EhOUld feel a repugnance to the monastic system, a caricature of which has been so painful to you. I are afraid I can give you no more information than I have already done as for making the truth known about poor Clara. I do not think the time has come when it can be done. No one will believe it, except the few who know what the mortal s l avery i s which Dr. Pusey brings his victims under, when he his them under his uncontrolled power and man agement; neither have we any knowledge of Clara's present state. Miss Sellon's ceremonial may content her. I think it likely Nlrs. Powell may get frightened, and resent , hot daughter. Perhaps I would ask advice from you. Igo to Paris next week, and I am very glad to know before I go, that poor Clara is likely to find help in you, for I um sure that you will not neglect any opportunity which may offer. Harriett's family name Ido not know. She is completely under Mr. Richard's influence. Sarah Anne is the daughter of the Protestant Bishop of Edin burgh. Susanna is a Miss Logan, her friends are Scot tish Presbyterians, I have heard that there was a plan, of sendin g t wo little g irl s , C a th o li cs, to t h e Orphanage,' but I do not know whether it was done. " Believe me, my dear madam, your's sincerely, CLIARLOTTE MUTE. " Vicarage-place, Kensington." Another letter ran thus:— " Madam,—l hope you will excuse my taking the liberty of writing to you. Y o ur pamPhlet most painfully interested me, as an old and valued friend of mine, Miss Clarissa Powell, has been, and probably is, under discipline at Devonport. She went there about the 25. h Sept. last year. Sho had been at the Home' in London, where she was first as Sister Clara. Sho bad become a Roman Catholic, and was compelled by her mother to return to the Home.' The week after, I believe, she was sent to Davenport, bat the most pain ful mystery hangs over the whole matter. I should feel it a real kindness if you could tell me whether y ou saw her at Devonport, and in , w hat state of mind She seemed CHARLOTTE C. W HITE . to be.—Believe me, your's truly " l c y n , ‘, Vicarage-place, Kensington, May 29."

It is upon a Scale of two inches to the foot; length, 10 inches; bore, 6i tenths; weight of powder, 2 drachms; weight of metal, 611.; and on Tuesday it was proved at the Royal Arsenal by a double charge of pow der as well as a Mink! rifle b4ll, which fitted the bore. On the body of the gun is engraved the Qu een ' s initials "V. R.," surmounted by the crown , on the "chase of flight. The coronet and plume of feathers are most beautifully executed by Mr. George Whiteley, of the Dial-square. PETITION AGAINST SIR R. GORE BOOTH. M.P. FOR COUNTY SLIGO.—IL is rumoured that there will certainly be a petition against Sir R. Gore Booth, on the ground of treating.—Mr. Charles Towneley, the p resent mem . b r for Sligo, is also about to receive warning of his seat i in Parliament being petitioned against. RAILWAY TESTIMONIAL—OR Wednesday evening last, at a meeting of the principal officers of the North Staffordshire Railway, held at the Stoke Railway officos, a splendid silver tea service and purse, value in all 651., was presented to Mr. Cooper, on his retirement from the service. CONJUGAL EIGHTS. This was an action commenced in the Consistory Court of London, in which the plaintiff, Mrs. Story, sued her husband for a restitution of conjugal rights, and succeeded in getting an order for 50/. a year ali mony. After some other proceedings Mr. Story re ceived a notice on the 2d of September last of a monition made on the 9th of June, ordering him to receive his wile, and treat her with conju g al kindness, and also to pay the a r reari o f alimony. Nothing more was doue until the 4th of Nov. instant, when he received a notice that unless he obeyed the monition served on him, by taking his wife home, and treating her with conjugal sfftction, and certifying that he had done so on the next court day, and clso paying the alimony and costs, an application would be made to the court on Tuesday, the 9th inst., to pronounce him in contempt. Mr. Gurney (with him Mr. Ribton) now moved for a writ of prohibition to stay proceedings in the Consistory Court, upon the ground that the defendant had had no notice of the application for a monition, and, therefore, that it ought to have no effect. The Court, however, thought that the defendant should appear in the Consistory Court, and state the want of notice, and if the judge ordered any proceedings upon the monition an application could be made to this court upon the subject. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.—Nov. 8. (Before Mr. Commissioner Phillips.) IN TEE MATTER OF GEORGE ROLPH- GEITING MONEY FROM A YOUNG WOMAN. This insolvent, who bad been a servant in a gentle man's family, was opposed by Mr. Ernest Reed for a young woman named Eliza Hall. _ The parties became acquainted in 1845, when they both lived in the service of a gentleman named Vona bles, in which family the young woman still lives as lady's-maid, and had come expressly from Wales to op ' pose, as the insolvent had made some reflections on lier character in his schedule. According to his account, Eliza Hall had advanced him at different times 251. voluntarily, to spend when they were out together at places of amusement, and he mentioned that they were to " settle." She had sued him in the County Court, and obtained judgment, on which he petitioned under the Protection Act. He swore that the money was ad vanced sa gifts. Tho young woman (Eliza Hall) denied his statement. The money was lent on his earnest solicitation when ho was in distress. He told her that if ho had 20/. to de posit ho could get a situation. She drew the money out of the savings' bank, and lent it, and no part of i; had been returned. Mr. Commissioner Phillips declared that he had never witnessed a more heartless and profligate piece of ingra titude. The young woman had lent him ;money in hi.; extremities, and now he alleged that it was given to him to spend at places of amusement. It was almost in credible on the face of it; but, further, the young woman had come from Wales to remove the reflections on her moral character. It was a false statement by tho insol vent, and on that ground he should dismiss the petition. If the insolvent suffered in consequence, it would be what he richly deserved. Petitiou dismissed. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS—Nov. 8. The November general sessions was commenced this morning at Clerkenwell, before Mr. Serjeant Adams, Assistant Judge, and Mr. Williams. There are for trial 29 prisoners charged with felony, and five who are charged with misdemeanour. THE PADDINGTON NUISANCE CASE. Tho dust contractors, Gore, Tame, Darhe, and Messrs. Collins, appeared to receive the judgment of the Court. These defendants, it may be remembered, wore con victed in 1850, with another named Stapleton, of a com mon ntilanee, in allowing the filth and refuse of the metropolis to accumulate in vast heaps on wharves adjoining the Grand Junction Canal at Paddington. Judgment was not then pronounced, but since that time the matter has been repeat edly before the Court, and on one occasion Mr. Sta pleton, one of the defendants not now present, was fined 3001, because he had not fulfilled promises he had made to the Assistant-Judge to the effect that the accumula tion of the refuse of Covent-garden market should not be continued. The nuisances occasioned by the other wharves were not then so great as formerly; but the whole of the other defendants now appeared to receive judgment at the instance of the parish authorities, by whom the prosecution was instituted. The Assistant-Judge particularly cautioned Gent as to how he conducted his business for the future, and then sentenced each of the defendants to pay a fine of Is. ALLEGED ROBBER? OF ANE3IIGRANT. John Sheen, 26,and John Crimmins, 22, were indicted for having stolen a bag containing divers sovereigns and half-sovereigns and other monies, from the person of Edward Branagan. The prc4ecuier, it appeared from the evidence, came to town on the 12th ultimo from Brighton, with the intention of emigrating. He had in his possession a pink bag containing 241. in gold, and other money, and after ho had been to the docks to look after a vessel, ho fell in with some men, with whom he drank at several public-houses. He now strongly denied that he was intoxicated when ho left these men, and accounted for the vagueness of his reeollec tion as to what subsequently took place by intimating that his drink had been drugged ; but, however that might Le, it was clear he had drank "deep," and there was strong reason t believe that he was not in a state of tho strictest sobriety when called into the witness-box. The Assistant Judge asked him it ho had not been drinking. Mr. Branagan—l am a free agent and a man, and I hope I may please myself. Tho Assistant Judge—You appear, certainly, to have been pleasing yourielf this morning. Mr. Branagan—l hope you will allow me to make a remark. I have lost my money, and I came here for justice, not for law. The Assistant Judge—lf you do not take care, sir, I will have you locked up until to-morrow morning. I am certain you have boon drinking, Mr. Branagan said he would admit that he assistant judge could easily put his threat into execution, and repeated his assertion that ho was a free agent. From the prosecutor's evidence it seemed that he had an indistinct dreamy sort of recollection of having been robbed by one of the men, aided by three others, but as ho had great regard for an oath, he would not—could not—swear to either of the prisoners. Further evidence was given, from which it appeared that at the time in question the prisoners and others were surrounding the prosecutor in the East India-road, and that Sheen took from his pocket a red bag, when they all decamped. For the defence, Mr. Birnie called Sour or five wit nesses to prove an alibi. The jury returned a verdict of Acquittal. Tho Assistant Judge cautioned the prisoners how they appeared there again. As the verdict had been delivered, he thought it right to say that the witnesses for the de fence were all known to bo associates of a man who was transported not long ago.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produce I more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and 1)1T( nature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class cf disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is fee ended on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of me( ticine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few legally qualid ed physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studie s to this important branch of medical science.
