THE DEPOSIT and GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY Chief Office, 22, Mooreate-street, London. The new and peculiar feature of this Co npany is the Deposit Sys tem of Assurance, combining the advantages of a Savings' Bank with a Life Assurance Company. By this plan a person may invest any sum, from 1/. upwards, and, without any further payment, at once secure a Policy for a certain amount commensurate with the age of the party and the amount deposited. Ile may also increase his payment, and thereby increase his assurance, decrease it by with drawing any sum at any time, or he may draw.eut all, he has paid in. For example :—A person, aged T menty-five, depositing 101. with the Company will at once secure a Policy for 261. 12s. 3i., payable at death, whenever it should happen, with full power to incre4se, decrease, or draw oul the 101. he has deposited. The humblest indi vidual may, therefore, reap many of the advantages of ordinary Life Assurance, and, at the same time, possess all the facilities of a bank ing account. Detailed Prospectuses, in illustration of the peculiar features and advantages of the Deposit System, with Tables by F. G. P. Nelson, Esq., may be obtained on application to any of the Company's Agents ; or to C. W. BEVAN, Actuary and Secretary. N.B. Agents required in all parts of the Kingdom.

VINEGAR. —In consequence of the publication in the "Lancet" of 28th ultimo of a Series of Analyses of this Article, in which the Vinegar made by us Is reported to contain Sulphuric Acid, we have addressed to the editor of that periodical the following letter, and hope from his sense of justice the adoption of the only honourable alternative—an acceptance of the challenge we have given, or an unhesitating withdrawal of the calumnious im plication. HILL, EVANS, and CO. Worcester, September 9, 1852, TO TUE EDITOR OF THE LANCET, Worcester, September 8, 1852. Sir,—Our attention has been called to an article In the " Lancet" of the 28th of August last, on " Vinegar and its Adulterations." You therein describe the samples of Vinegar, which you state to have been furnished tl you by retail dealers as our Vinegar, as con taining a considerable quantity of sulphuric acid. You also state that the samples were not procured direct from the makers, because of the difficulty experienced in obtaining them by parties not engaged in the trade. You will remember that, by a letter dated the 3d day of January last, we offered for your inspection several bottles of our vinegar, and forwarded them to you through your publisher, Mr. Churchill, with a note from Sir Charles Hastings, M.D., of Worcester, vouching for our veracity. We have also an authorised agent in London, Mr. Waters, of lb, Whitecross-street ; we are, therefore, surprised at your statement that any difficulty existed in pr.curing samples, as far as our firm were concerned. We reiterate positively our assertion in our letter of the 3d of January, that no sulphuric acid is emp'oyed in our manufacture, and we therefore assert that the results of the analysis published in your columns are mistaken, or that the Vinegar subjected to your test was not the Product of our manufactory. We are willing to have samples of our Vinegar subjected to the severest analysis by any two eminent chemists, the one to be named by yourself and the other by ourselves—the mode of procuring the samples to be de c id e d b y the gentlemen appo i n t e d ; or we will submit our 'Vinegar to any one of the undermentioned gentlemen : Dr. Lyon Playfair, Dr. Graham, or Dr. Hoffman. We propose that the expenses of the investigation should be paid by ourselves, provided it should be found that there is any free sulphuric acid in our Vinegar, or any acid other than results from the fermentation of our grain wort ; and that they should be paid by you, provided it be found that there be no such free sulphuric acid, or other acid than that resulting from the fermentation as be fore described. In the latter case we should expect a notice of the result to be published in the " Lancet," as our sole object is to be vindicated from an unjust aspersion. _ . We write this letter without prejudice as to any ulterior proceed ings which we may think fit to adopt, provided our offer be not com plied with. Your obedient servants, HILL, EVANS, and CO. From the " Lancet," Sept. 18th, p. 270, in reply to the foregoing letter to the Editor. We have therefore very great satisfaction in adding to the four firms which do not use Sulphuric Acid in the manufacture of their Vinegars, and whose names have been already published, those of MESSRS.

We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851. —" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Sperma torrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately described, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady "—Medical Circular, May 5, 1852. —" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preliminary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the ' brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—Dublin Medical Press, April 18,1852.

The essential object of this treatise Is to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which have produced snore misery in Youth, degradation in man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine 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 qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail.

A GIGANTIC FACTORY IN THE WEST RIDING. the l rail e a d w i a ng i m t Mr. Titus Salt, of Bradford, some months ago, commenced the erection of extensive manufacturing of premises at Saltaire, in the neighbourhood Ship ley, with a view to concentrate his now many scats tered establishments into one vast whole, wherein the utmost economy of labour may be combined with every recent practical improvement in the alpaca and mohair manufactures. A partial and—in some im portant respects—erroneous description of this under taking has found its way into the London journals, and we have therefore been induced to visit the works, in order to furnish the public with a ju s t view of their extent and importance. The estate on which these buildings are being erected stretches from the lower road ooGna S oree h sae, i l, l ,as e oe y asdnpf t ta o dohmt t ,e h ii rl e Enii cav ß , rldeu i rw n dt A g eiocs l ki e rt y tehh,Ge r et o lon a ef i d untoh , ufue a re c orTm r oo o hnui s le- s sl v finesa inso d i t "stepping r o s f t o Ba that of the estate devoted to the wo rk s we are a b ou t to describe is one of the man y b eau tif u l spo t s so between the railway passin g th roug h Ski p t on to abundant in the beautif u l va ll e y o f th e Ai re .

Th e m ill , w hi c h runs eludes six storeys, a n d i s cons t ruc t e d o f ma ssive stone work in the b o ld es t s tyl e o f Italian archi tecture. The walls look more like those of a fortified town than that of a building destined to the peace ful pursuits of commerce. The floors are formed on arches of hollow brick made on the ground by Clay ton's patent process; the openings in the bricks being used for the purposes of ventilation. Rows of orna mental cast-iron columns and massive cast-iron beams support the arches. The roof will be of iron. The windows of large size are to be entirely filled with immense squares of plate glass. The whole of this building will be fireproof. From the centre of the mill running northward to the bank of the canal, a distance of 330 feet, are the warehouses, which at the lower end are 90 above the water. In the angle 1 datftohr o n se romantic formed by the mill and warehouses to the eastward, comprising and area of 81400 yards, are the weft room and weaving shed, communicating with' the several fl.)ors in the mill and warehouses by fire-proof, hoists. The weaving shed will hold 1,200 looms. The shafting will run in vaults under the floor, thus preserving the vast room above free from every ob- F,truction. The corresponding angle on the western side of the warehouses will be occupied by an im mense shed for combining machines, and chambers for washing, drying, and sorting the wool, and by reeling and packing rooms. Beneath this shed there is an enormous filter and reservoir, capable of containing 500,000 gallons, into which the rain-water will be conducted from all the roofs, to be applied to the process of scouring wool. The offices and store rooms, extending to a length of 240 feet, with a very handsome fa9sde, form the western boundary of the works, and face a new road made by Mr. Salt, which will extend from the Bingley turnpike road, crossing the railway by a handsome cast-iron bridge, and the canal and river by a wrought-iron tubular girder bridge, 450 feet in length, to the edge of Baildon green ; thus connecting the estate on the north bank of the river with the more accessible parts on the south. The arrangement, design, and construction of the buildings are confided to Messrs. Henry F. Lockwood and William Mawson, architects, of Brad ford. The engines, boilers, and machinery are en trusted to the eminent firm of Messrs. William Fair bairn and Son, of Manchester. The engines are of beautiful design, and consist of two pairs, nominally of 400-horse power. The boilers will be constructed of the partly on the tubular principle, and placed ,beneath the level of the ground to the s outhward mill, and communicate with the chimney (250 feet high) at the eastern extremity of the works, to which is given the effect of an Ita lian cam p anile. The engine houses are situated on either side of the principal entrance to the mill ; and some m ac h ine ma b idea of the magnitude of these vas t mebed has ab e gathered from the fact, that the en sorbed upwards of 1,200 tons of solid stone. The engines will be supplied with water by means .of tunnels passing below the canal and communicating with the Aire. Another series of tunnels will return the water back to the river when used. A branch from the railway will pass under the central arches of the mill, at which point there will be two hoists for loading and unloading railway trucks, and two for ordinary waggons ; and at the north end of the ware houses the same number of hoists will be provided, two for waggons and two for loading and unloading vessels on the canal. The whole of the works thus described are being constructed of stone, supplied by twenty quarries in the surrounding neighbourhood, and for extreme massivenessand solidity have no equal in this or any other country. The gasworks, to be situated between the canal and the river, are to be upon White's hydro-carbon system, and nre calculated to supply 100,000 ft. per day for s,oooligbts,in the mills, sheds, streets, and houses of the workpeople. When the works are finished, 4,500 bands will be required to keep them going. This will involve an addition to the population of Saltaire of from nine to ten thou sand persons. To accommodate these, Mr. Salt pro poses to erect forthwith 700 d welling houses of various classes, replete with every convenience requisite for the health and comfort and well being of the inhabi tants. The architects are expressly enjoined to use every precaution to prevent the pollution of the air by smoke, or the water by sewerage or other impu rity. Wide streets, spacious squares, with gardens attached, ground for recreation, a large dining hall and kitchens, baths and warehouses, a covered market, schools, and a church, each combining every improve ment that modern art and science has brought to light, are ordered to be proceeded with by the gentleman who has originated this undertaking. In the Times and Daily News the expense of this gigantic under taking is set down at half a million of money, but we believe every expense connected with it will be more than met by less than half of the sum named. — Bradford Observer.

THE KAFIR WAR. ARRIVAL OF THE HADDINGTON. SOUTHAMPTON, THUNDAY, OCT. 7. The Peninsular and Oriental Seam Navigation Company's ship Haddington, Captain Bradshaw, arrived here about noon to•day from Suez and India. She has brought no passengers or cargo, and comes home to receive new hoilers and to he thoroughly overhauled preparatory to fr(.sh serv:co in the Indian sesl. The ILiddington ha experienced very bad weather on the voyage home. She touched at Afauritius, the Cane, and TeneritTe. From the Cape her dates are to the 231 of August, about 20 days later than received by the last direct mail. Very few papers have reached us from the Cape by this arrival ; the news appears t) be of the same character as that received by many previous mails. We extract the more important details of the news. A supplement of the Cape Town Vail of the 18th of August publishes the subjoined t— " GritA.HAWS TOWN, AUG. 12. " The last few days have been fraight 'with events and reports which have occasioned a little bustle and excitement iu the town. On Sunday morning accounts were received that the Hottentots and Rafirs were again assembled in considerable force and in very strong posi tion at Committee's Drift. It was furttor reported that a patrol of the 12th Regiment, now in camp at Driver's Bush, had come upon them and discovered their where abouts, but their position and app6arance were so formi dable that they did nut think it prudent :o attack them, but retired. Assistance was requested from town, and, notwithstanding so many persons had left on the Trans;Kei expedition, Mr. Stubbs se: aboutt raising a party of volunteers to go and endecxur to find out these marauders. By dint of great exerton about fifty mounted men, including some of the new rolice, started on Tues day afternoon. Up to the postng of this we have had no intelligence of their, movements subsequently to leaving town. " Letters from various parts do not speak favour. ably of the state of the colonial border. The road from East London to King William's Town, which lies prin cipally through Pate's country, is becoming more and more unsafe. Almost all parties vhich move along that line are fared upon by the lurking enemy. A few days since a party of soldiers, accompanied by two or three officers, were fired upon near Fort Pato, and on• of the horses wounded in the thigh. From some of the friendly Kafirs it has been learnt that several bodies of Hotten tots have entered the colony. Of course they consider themselves much more safe in the rear than in the front of the troops and burghers. One of these foraying parties is said to have gone down to the mouth of the Kowie. " The news from Kafirland is bnt scanty. Colonel Michel has had some fighting while moving with the troops under his command to join the Governor on the Umvani. It is said that Kreli has abandoned his great place, and has moved towards the coast, purposing, doubtless, to hide himself and cattle in the dense bush. The report we forwarded a fortnight since respecting the expected advance of Faku and his people you will now find confirmed in the newspapers. Letters have been received from several of the young men who went out on the e xpedition, dated variously, from Beaufort, Eland's Post, Whittlesea. Those dated on the 6th, from Whittlesea and Sbiloh, state that all were well and in good spirits. They, however, complain of a want of attention to their comfort, and even their necessities, in regard to commissariat and other supplies. This is a subject to which you have more than once referred. When on their way, near the Bliakwater, they lost se veral of their trek oxen, taken b 5 the enemy, and ere they could proceed they had to psrchase more at Fort Beaufort. " The Lieut.-Governor's circula• calculated to arouse the western districts to a sense of the duty they owe their fellow-colonists of the eastern province, has given universal satisfaction. It is said our civil commissioner, Mr. Hudson, is about to retire from the office, and conjecture is busy in furnishing his supposed successor. .6 We have just heard some news which, if it prove true, will soon throw everything into the shade; yes, even the Kafir war. Gold, it would appear, has been found in the Waterkloof, that celebrated residence of Chief Macomo' Should there be any truth in this statement, and the fact should be verified, Macomo and his people will be driven out in much less time, we guess, than by all the soldiers and burghers that may be sent against him. There will be no lack of volunteers fur such a purpose. Already we hear of some parties who think of buying pickaxes and shovels. So far as we can make anything of it the account is this:—An officer has sent down from the Waterkloof a specimen of ssnd or soil, which contains many small glittering par ticles, affirmed by those who have seen the specimen to be really gold dust. Wo have not ourselves seen it, but have conversed with those who, have. It is now lodged, where we believe it was originally sent, with the Hon. R. Godlouton, the editor of the Journal. Is this a new era opening upon the fortunes of this colony? Shall we also feel the effects of a gold mania? With coal in the west, and geld in the east, shall we not soon be indepen dent of all the world? We shall see. " We have just heard, this morning, that intelligence has been received of an attack upon a party of the 12th, encamped at Driver's Hill, during the night, by Hot tentots it is supposed. They came and firod into the midst of them, but fortunately did no mischief. They were immediately followed for a short distance, and one was shot through the back, who, after running some tune after he received the wound, ultimately fell. It is also said the spoor of about 40 men can clearly be dis tinguished passing jut° the colony, very near, if not quite through, one of the police stations. " A boat has been washed ashore, near the Kowie, with the name of Pantaloon upon it, which vessel, by the shipping list, appears to be expected at Algoa Bay. It is to be hoped that nothing worse has occurred than the loss of the boat." reinforcement of 40 men of the 74th Highlanders, under Lieutenant Philpot, joined, and the force proceeded to the ' Springs' at the back of the Grasakop, where a party of Cape Mounted Rifles, police, and Fingoes-38 mounted men and 20 Fingoes on foot—came up The whole patrol, now 258 strong, then marched to Double Drift, searching all the country in passing. At the drift the spoor of a number of Kafirs going out of the colony was found, and also traces of another party continuing along the right bank of the river towards Toia's On the 12th the patrol started at two o'el,elc in the morning, and thoroughly scoured Tula',; Kloo , , but did not filet any traces of the enemy ; indeed, the fait• nestles appear, it is said, never to have been inhabited since the patrol of April last. Moving up Adam's Heights, and continuing along that range, the spoor of 50 ur 60 Hottentots and a few Kafirs, driving a flock of sheep, was come upon; but the horses of the patrol were too jaded to follow it up, and it was further considered that the enemy had already crossed lieiskamme with their booty. These robbers are supposed to have come from the Konap. "In returning to Fort Browa, on the 13th, the traces of an encampment of Hottentots were found, witich the guide, Mr. limiter, was of opinion had been cccupied by the rebels who murdered the unfortunate sappers about two months ago. It seems to be the prevalent idea that of those engaged on this patrol that booty from the colony is generally driven past Fort Wiltshire and across the Keiskamma. This point ought, then, to be the more closely guarded." "EAST LONDON, AUGUST 7. " The whole country between this place and King William's Town is infested by Gaika Kafirs. The road was never more unsafe for private travelling, and even with a large escort the friendly Kafirs do not hesitate to fire upon the waggons. Never was the ' sitting still' dodge acted with more success than at the present mo ment. In Umhala's country hundreds of the enemy's cattle are known to be sheltered, and many of Stock's and Seyolo's people are daily recognised; but to the present time no effort has been made to compel these friendly chiefs either openly to declare or surrender our enemies and their cattle into our hands. The Kafirs do not visit this place so frequently as they were wont, owing to an idea that has widely obtained that the steamers' have broughe the smallpox to destroy them." "KING WILLIAM'S TOWN, ArransT 6. " There is a Kafir report here that the enemy has driven his cattle in the direction of the forests above the sea coast near the Bashee, and has destroyed the grass in his retreat. Should this prove to be correct, the Go vernor will find it a most difficult task at this time of the year to pursue him in those cold regions, and had much better have postponed the expedition till the spring of the year. As it is, the draught cattle are in a dreadful state, too poor to be of great service should they be required to proceed any great distance into the interior. If Sir Harry Smith's operations i❑ the same country had been continued for a few months longer the present war must have been brought to an hinourahle termination. The Kafirs were then flying in all direc tions, and the large force General Somerset had con stantly patrolling the country made the enemy feel it unsafe for his cattle, either in the Amatola or Balcta. As a step has again been taken in the right direction, should these patrols continue during the spring, it will convince the Kafirs that there is no hope of his sowing again in his favourite fastnesses, and the war will be over in three months." The Cape Town papers publish the following rela tive to the Kafir War Voluntary Contributio❑ Fund, a meeting of the committee of which was held on the 19th of August : " It was moved by Mr. Thomas Ansdell, seconded by the Hon. W. Porter, and unanimously carried:— " That in accordance with the resolution of the 19th of August, the treasurer of the committee be authorised to pay over from time to time to the Treasurer General all contributions that he may receive on behalf of the Kafir War Voluntary Contribution Fund.' " The deputation appointed at the last meeting to wait upon his Honour the Lieutenant-Governor this day re ported to th• committee that his Honour had received them with an expression of much satisfaction at the proceedings of the committee, and suggested that the chairman should transmit to him a copy of the resolu tion proposing to place the funds at his Excellency's disposal; whereupon the chairman read a copy of a letter of the 19th of August, 1852, addressed by the chairman to his Honour the Lieutenant-Governor upon this sub ject, and also his Honour's reply thereto, under date the 19th of August, 1852. _ _ _ " It was then moved moved by Mr. C. J. Brand, seconded by Mr. J. de Wet, and unanimously resolved " That the letter from his Honour the Lieutenant- Governor be published as an advertisement in all the local newspapers, together with the letter from the chairman, to which the above is a reply, and aLo such resolutions as have reference to this subject.'" " (Letter No. 4 ) " Cape Town, Any. 19. _ " Sir,—l have the honour to transmit a copy of a re solution unanimously adopted this morningiit a meetiug of the committee appointed at a public meeting on Fri day, the 13th inst., for the Kafir War Voluntary Con tribution Fund, and to state that a sum of 1,6001., already collected, in the hands of the treasurer, the Hon. Mr. W. Hope, is at the disposal of his Excellency the Governor. The total sum subscribed in Cap Town and vicinity amounts at present to about 2,5001.

" Government- house, Cape Town, Aug. 19. " Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of this date, inclosing a resolution of the Committee of the Kafir War Voluntary Contribution Fund,' by which the funds collected, or to be collected through the committee, are placed at the unreserved dis posal of his Excellency the Governor, for the' equipment and maintenance of volunteers of the eastern districts, during the Kafir war,' and acquainting me that the sub scriptions up to this date in Cape Town and its vicinity amount to about 2,5001.-1,600/. of which has already been collected by the committee. I shall have great sa tisfaction in communicating, by this day's post, to his Excellency the Governor this gratifying result of a pub lic meeting held in Cape Town on the 13th inst.—gra tifying not more for the substantial aid which it will afford to our eastern fellow colonists in the field than for the proof which it exhibits of the admirable spirit evoked by the occasion on the part of the inhabitants of this city and its neighbourhood. " In conveying to you these sentiments, I avail myself of the opportunity of expressing my entire approval of the course you have pursued in the execution of your instructions, and of congratulating you on the mark of respect and confidence so signally conferred by your unanimous election to the chair of a meeting of your fellow-citizens, the highly respectable and influential character of which is amply attested by the names of the gentlemen who were nominated and consented to act as members of its committee, and of those whose attend ance at the meeting enabled them to lay the foundation of the fund which that meeting with such marked una nimity resolved upon establishing. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient, humble servant, "C. H. DARLING, Lieutenant• Governor. " By order of the committee. " A. J. VAN BREDA., P.S., Hon, Sec. " P. Borcherds, Esq., &0., Chairman of the Committee of the Kafir War Voluntary Contribution Fund." It should be stated that the voluntary fund was unanimously agreed to be raised at a public meeting at Cape Town, and that the resolution to the fol lowing effect was removed by Sir Andries Stocken storm : " That this meeting, regretting that the state of the local Government has not yet enabled his Excellency the Governor to make suitable provision for the defence of the frontier inhabitants, for putting an end to the present war, and for establishing a lasting peace without calling for help from the volunteer contributions of in dividuals, and deeply sympathising with the frontier inhabitants in their sufferings and danger, and confiding in the wisdom and ability of the commander of the forces to accomplish the objects set forth in the circulars addressed to the civil commissioners by his Excellency the Governor and his honour the Lieutenant-Governor, with the help thus solicited, promptly responds to the call, and confidently hopes that the same sentiments will be manifested by all ranks and classes of this com munity." A. similar fund had been placed in operation and subscriptions opened at Wyneberg. Terepo report ofthe to commission Lieutenant-Governor h supposed coal deposit, stated t o exist _near Cape examine the Town, is published in the loca l papers, but is en tirely unfavourable to the pr os p ect of obtaining such supplies. None of the Cape papers report the outward arr i va l ' of the General Screw Companys steam-ships Har binger or Bosphorus. A joint-stock company, with a capital of 5,0001. was being formed for the purpose of erecting a patent slip for the repairs of shipping at Table Bay.

It will he seen from these quotations that the market is pretty well supplied with French mules. Bourbon has lately offered a better market than Mauritius, several cargoes having averaged there about 200 dolls. 'The extreme scarcity of money has had its influence on prices here. Cape horses have lately averaged from 189 dolls. to 190 dolls. Sheep are on demand at full prices.

Two merchant vessels in Table Bay were loading with passenges for Australia. Her Majesty's steamer Castor was expected at the Cape in September from Mozambique. Her M&jes ty's ship Styx was expected in Table Bay, to embark commissariat mtores for the frontier. General Somer set and his family would probably arrive in that ves sel. Colonel Eyre (whose health was much improved) was to proceed in the Styx, to join his regiment on the frontier. Commander Belgrave, of her Majesty's steamer Hydra, was unable on account of his health to continue his command, and will shortly return to England. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of business. The Court was numerously attended. THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. The LORD MAYOR informed the Court that he had received from the Secretary of State for the Home Department a communication relating to the subject upon which such painful public interest was excited. It was as follows : " Whitehall, Oct. 4, 1852. "My Lord,—l think it proper to inform your Lord ship, that her Majesty, in consideration of the great and distinguished services of the late Duke of Wellington, has signified her royal pleasure that his Grace's remains should be publicly interred in the cathedral church of St. Paul, with all solemnities usual on such occasions. • "As soon as the arrangements necessary for giving effect to her Majesty's pleasure are determined I will not tail to communicate further with your Lordship on the subject. ‘I have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's obedient servant. " S. H. WALPOLE. " To the Bight Hon. the Lord Mayor Upon the motion of Mr. JOHN Woon, seconded by Mr. Deputy LOTT, the letter of the Secretary of State was ordered to be entered upon the minutes, and referred to the committee engaged upon the subject. Mr. Jour( WOOD said be hoped to be allowed (al though somewhat out of order) to bring up the re port of the committee to which the communi cation had been just referred, and which had been appointed at the last meeting.—(Hear, hear.) He had but few observations to make. The opinions and wishes of all had been so completely unanimous as to the course most eligible to be pur sued that little or no time was occupied in delibera tion. The exalted character and eminent services of the illustrious man whose death they all deplored were so deeply impressed upon every mind that any at tempt at display would be but ill adapted to the feelings of the members. Indeed, there was but one sentiment in the committee, and that was that not a moment should be lost in deter mining upon a recommendation calculated to show the strength and unanimity of their proceedings.—(Cheers.) There were two subjects embraced in the report he had the honour to present. The first related tojthe attendance of the Corporation at the funeral of the late Duke; the second to the erection of a monument in perpetuation of the hero's great services. To both of those propositions the com mittee had assented with one voice. They concurred in the feeling that, although the name of Wellington had in itself the attributes of immortality to which the acts of others could give no additional weight, the Corporation of London were bound to take as much honour to themselves as could Le derived from manifesting their estimate of his merits in the only way they could show their respect and admiration.— (Cheers.) They naturally look to the only precedent adapted to the cccasion in the cooduct of the Corpora tion upon the logs of Nelson, and hoped to see a mo nument in Guildhall, as well us the national monu ment in St. Paul's Cathedral, in commemoration of the great actions of Wellington.— (Cheers.) Toe Town Clerk then read the following report : " To the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Gammons of the City of London, in Common Council assembled. We, whose names are hereunto subscribed, of your committee appointed on the 23d day of September last to consider what mark of respect should be paid by the Corporation of London to the memory of his Grace the late Duke of Wellington, and to report thereon to this Court, do certify that we met for the purpose of con sidering th© same, and the Town Clerk having laid before us the several proceedings of this Hon. Court in the years 1805 and 1806, upon the occasion of the public funeral of the late Vice-Admiral Horatio Lord Viscount Nelson, and on the erection of a monument to his me mory in the Guildhall, we are unanimously of opinion, in the present instance, and as a mark of the deep re spect of the Corporation to the memory of his Grace the late Duke of Wellington, that the Corporation:of Lon don should take part in the public funeral of his Grace, and that it should be recommended to this Hon. Court to cause a monument to be erected in the Guildhall of this City to perpetuate his memory. " All which we submit to the judgment of this Hon. Court. "JOHN WOOD. "JAMES WHITE. " JAS. BLADES.

Mr. JOHN WOOD said he anticipated the unanimity which evidently prevailed, and moved— " That this Court do agree with the committee in their report, and that it bo referred back to them with instructions to procure models or designs for the said monument, as they shall deem worthy, together with an estimate of the expense for erecting the same, and to report thereon to this Court." Mr. Deputy LoTT seconded the resolution. The report and resolution were then agreed to unanimously amid cheers. THE NEW MAYORALTY. The LORD MAYOR read a letter which he had re ceived from Alderman Challis (the Lord Mayor elect) expressing his consent to take upon himself the office of Mayor for the year ensuing. Upon the motion of Mr. Deputy PEWTRESS, in the absence of Mr. Deputy Peacock, the subject of in creased accommodation for the officers of the Com missioners of Sewers was referred to a committee. The following gentlemen were re-elected to act as Commissioners upon the Metropolitan Commission of Sewers: Mr. Alderman Lawrence, Mr. Deputy Harrison, Mr. Henry Lowman Taylor, and Mr. Deputy Peacock. APPOINTMENTS AND ALLOWANCES BY THE COAL AND CORN AND FINANCE COMMITTEE. Mr. T. HALL brought up a report from the Officers and Clerks Committee on the reference relative to appointments and allowances by the Coal and Corn and Finance Committee, delivered in on the Ist of July last. The matter formed a subject of an exceedinglY lengthened discussion of not the slightest public interest. THE PROPOSED CATTLE-MARKET IN COPENHAGEN- YIELDS.' Mr. Deputy OBBARD presented to the Courtsu elme morial, signed by several of the owners and in favour P of house s an d l an d near Copenhagen - fiel d , o of the site selected for the new metropolitan cattle market. The petition, which has already that appeared in the public papers, set forth gener a ll y instead of considering the proposed market the petitio ners, b lkly to be an injury to their property and the neighbour hood, regarded the proposal as one which was calcu lated materially to enhance the value of the one and to benefit the other in no small degree. They, there fore, prayed to be heard at the bar of the court. The memorial having been read, the members of the deputation were severally questioned. In answer to interrogatories put by Deputy Lott, Mr. H. L. Taylor, Mr. Anderton, Mr. Yead, Mr, Brook, Alderman Lawrence, Mr. De Jersey, Deputy Obbard, and others, it was stated that the peti tioners were perfectly satisfied that the removal of the market to the immediate locality in which their property was situate would improve rather than deteriorate its value. One of the deputa tion stated that he had taken a considerable quantity of land near to the site of the proposed mar ket, upon which he intended to build a large number of houses of a third-rate class, and he believed, if the market was removed to that locality, that instead of " THE TRANS-KEI EXPEDITION. " The mail from Fort Beaufort has just come in, and brings us communications from the Governor's camp, on the Ox Kraal River, to the 4th inst. Time will not per mit our giving these to-day. They state that his Excel lency was in good health and spirits; that he had been joined by Colonel Napier with his cavalry and by Cap tain Tylden. Fears are expressed that the turnout of burghers from Albert, Cradock, and Coleaberg would be very small. The Cradeck burghert, it is said, say they cannot turn out if unsupported by the Gratti-Reinet men in the rear, and the Albert burghers object on the l i ground that the Colesberg m en will not join them. Commandant Olivier intends, however, to take the field, and hopes to be joined by 100 burghers, but states that if he has bat 10 followers he will join the Governor—an example which entitles the gallant commandant to the applause of every patriotic man. Tne Assistant-Com missioner Owen and Mr. L. H. Meurant had come down from the sovereignty to meet his Excellency, but in• tended to return immediately to Bloemfontein. " A person who has just come down from the north east boundary states it was currently reported in that quarter that Kreli, with his people, had abandoned his great place,' and moved towards the coast country (150 miles distant), where there are extensive forests, suited for all the purposes of concealment and abundant pas turage, so essential in winter, and especially when the country, as at present, is suffering by severe drought. It was understood by his Excellency the Governor that Fakn, the Amaponda chief, would move with a strong force in that direction; but it may be doubted whether ho will cross the Bashee, and, if not, then the Amagaleka tribes will find abundant shelter and subsistence in the country in question." A further communication from Graham's Town, dated the 14th of August, contains the following : " Wo have but little to add to our communication of the 12th Test. No further informationlas been received from the front respecting the movements of the army and the burgher forces connected with it. The party which went hence in the early part of the week to Com mittee's Drift, and which we understand was made up to about 150 men, by draughts from the camp and the other quarters, returned to town last evening, having been eminently unsuccessful as regards finding the enemy. They patrolled the country for several days, and in some places saw spoors, but did not fall in with either i Kafir or Hottentot. " We are pleased with the tone and spirit of the Cape Town press on the subject of the Lieutenant- Governor's circular, and hope the meeting which was to be held yesterday may have been productive of more good to the eastern province than the mere result of adding, however largely, to the fund raised for the as sistance of the parties who have gone on the Trans- ICei expedition." The Graham's Town Journal gives the subjoined items of news from the various quarters : " Information has been received from the Kowie that on the night of Wednesday last 26 head of cattle were stolen from the kraal of Mrs. Gray, widow of the late lamented field corner, at Southwell. The spoor of only two marauders were seen. We have not heard what chance there exists of recovery, especially as many of the police were absent on the Fish River bush patrol. " Letters from Alice give a most cheering account of the manner in which the Governor's late proclamation was received, and of the patriotic spirit displayed by the inhabitants in their praiseworthy response to that call. ThiA town, or rather village, is situated on the borders of Katirland, not many miles from the renowned Ama tolls; still 55 of its inhabitants have gone forth to the muster on the Umvani, being no less than eight out of ten of those capable of bearing arms. " Information of the results of a patrol into the Fish River bush by the force under Captain Espinasse,. of the 12th Regiment, has just come to ha nd, b y which we learn that Tola's Moot; and those other 'dens' of that locality, are deserted by the enemy. " A column from Fort Peddle was to have co-ope rated r.i th Captain E.pioesse's force, bat the two parties did not communicate. Although no decisive re sults have followed this patrol, yet it! features possess some interest. We learn that Captain Espinesse, with the 12th Regiment, was joined at Fort Brown, on the 10th lust., by a party of the Albany Rangers, under Mr. Forrester, and of the Albany Mounted Police, under Ur. Miller, together 40 men. On the 11th a further ~~/ f° rd/ i L . -... / `..e..,.........

The houses he intended to erect would be within forty fret of the proposed market. He 1.4 2,. . had made arrangements to do this before anything was heard of the proposal for the removal of the market at Smithfield to the site at Copenhagen-fields. lie in tended to build 170 houses there, and other parties had already applied to him for part of the ground, under the conviction that the market would increase the value of their money if they invested it in that pro perty. He proposed that the rent of the houses he in tended to erect should be from 45/. to 551. per annum. The property, when complete, would be worth not less than 84,0001. He had no doubt but that property would be put upon the ground in the neighbourhcod of the proposed site in a very short time after the market WB3 removed, to the amount of several thou sand pounds, so satisfied were many of those who owned land there of the benefit which would arise foom the rErnoval to that locality. Oae person stated that be had taken laud under covenant to build pro perty upon it representing the sum of 84,000/, and he felt satiqied that the market, it' taken close by the house's he intended to put upon the ground, would,in the course of a very :port period, materially enhabet) its valu,?,. Mr. Deputy OUBARD then said that he rose to move, "Tont the memorial be referred to the Afarkets Improvement Committee," ES a similar oue ou the other side h•ul been laid before that body. He knew nothing at nil of the parties promoting the pt:lion, but he thought it only fair that they should be ht trd in the matter. Mr. BARNARD seconded the motion. H e fully agreed with the principle enunciated by the mover, Deputy Obbard. Mr. Deputy LOTT said that he btu; no objection to the petition being referred to the committee, as the other had been ; but it should he remembered that it had been agreed to at a meeting where there were present only some 13 or 14 persons. — (A voice, " 30.") One person upon that occasion had stated that he was worth 84,0001.—(No.) Well, then, be said he was under covenant to put property to that amount on the ground, and that he was consequently responsible for its being done. But what were the facts ? Why, that the parties had taken land for the purpose of building a class of houses and shops not for the benefit of the locality, but for those who might frequent or be employed in the market. Why, what would be the result of that ? Simply this-- that the locality all round the market and its imme diate neighbourhood would be infested with knackers' yards, the anatomisers of horses, bone boilers, gut twisters, and all the other filthy trades incident to such a market. He would say that it was an act of injustice—it was not right on the part of the corporation to attempt . to take the market into the vicinity of the Caledonian-road in Copenhagen fields. [Mr. H. L. Taylor—" It is not the corpora tion that is to blame ; it is the Government.] He con tended that the petitioners at the bar had not shown that they represented the amount of property speei fied ; they might possess a few acres of ground, but it was not covered with houses, and nothing had been said that would justify them in coming before that Court and asking that the market might be taken to their neighbourhood on grounds such as had been al leged by them.—(Hear, and laughter.) He hoped that when the report of the Markets Improvement Committee was brought up, the recommendation of the committee would be to advise that the Copen hagen scheme should be abandoned.—(Hear and laughter.) He thought it would be so ;he imagined, indeed, that he already saw something in favour of such a change 0 looming in the distance," and he felt strongly inclined to believe that Smithfield-market never would go to Copenhagen-fields.—(Laughter.) Alderman LAWRENCE observed that really any one who had heard the speech of Deputy Lott would imagine that the corporation had the power of taking the market where they pleased. This was a great mistake ; they could not do so. The corporation had been put to large expense in their attempts to prevent its being removed, and they had been com pelled to enter into an agreement with the Govern ment that they would take it where the Go vernment approved. Before this was done the com mittee had examined several sites with much patience and care, and at last they had recommended Co penhagen-fields as being the most eligible of the 23 others ; but they never were parties to the re moval. It had been said that if the market was re moved it would be an evil to the neighbourhood. If it was an evil at all, there could not be the slightest doubt about that.—(Hear.) Indeed, he would say more ; he believed that the evils arising from the removal to any suburban place would be far greater th*n its retention in the City.--(Hear, hear.) It was no matter where they took the market, some would be injured, while others would be benefited; and were they to place it on a plain far away, as some had re commended, from the haunts of man, they would soon find it surrounded by buildings, and consequently by population. In his opinion Copenhagen-fields was the most suitable place for the market if it was to be removed. The proposed site was contiguous to im portant lines of railways, and if abattoirs, &c., were established the evils pictured might, be found to be comparatively trifling. He though; the petitioners had done right in promoting that memorial, and therefore he should support their solicitations for inquiry. After all he was of opinion that the better way would be to permit the market to remain where it is, and improve it as proposed. Blaekfriars.bridge, with its many advantages, was closely contiguous, and taking all things imo account he must say that his opinion clearly was, that if they did so it would not only be best for those who opposed the removal of it to Copenhagen-fields, but far better also for the public.—(Hear.)

SHOCKING DEATH OF TWENTY-FOUR HORSES IS Till LATE (TALE._ Information was received yesterday that the sloop 'Zebra, Cooper master, of Exeter, with a cargo, con sisting of 27 young horses from Perros, in Brittany, for the first-mentioned port, was caught in a heavy gale, on Thurs day, the 30th ult., when half-channel over • the sea was so furiously violent, that t he hatches had to be battened down (made water tight), but the horses breaking loose, com menced kicking and plunging about, and owing to the terrific gale, it was impossible for those who had charge of them to get down and secure them ; the vessel was for a time on her beam ends, the horses all getting on one side, but she soon righted. The gale having abated in the morning, Captain Cooper considered it prudent to bear up for Jersey, where 00 opening the hatches, 24 of the animals were found dead, sup posed to have been suffocated. The loss incurred is immense, as most of the horses were of the value of 301. each, and were in good condition when chipped. //e <W4(e-"------L-t ") tip • t L. .L... 1.1 1!-.3 !L •_ -~--
