THE SeN s _ LONDON, FRIbAY EVENING, NOVEMBER ics, • - AN ENGLISH NEWSPAPER IN ROME. (From the Manchester Guardian.) We announced last week, we believe exclusively so far as the English periodical press is concerned, the publication of as English newspaper in " The eternal city." The first number of that newspaper is now be fore us. It is called " The Roman Advertiser, Journal of Science, Literature, and the Fine Arts," and is pab . lisbed every Saturday evening , by L . Piale, Monaldira's Library, 79, Piazza di Spagna, price 10 bajocchi (sd. English). This No. 1, which is dated Rome, October 24, is a small 4to. paper, of eight pages, resembling the Athenceum in form and size. It commences with an editorial " Introduction," explaining the object and purpose of its publication. From this article we take the following extracts Our first care shall be to provide a source of enter tainment and instruction to that portion of the generous public of Great Britain which may be resident, for a shorter or longer period in this metropolis, whether in the pursuit of amusement, health, or information." The educated traveller, it is observed, is well informed as to the ancient city and its remaining monuments,— " But of modern Rome, the majority of travellers know very little ; and the neglect of providing intelligence has been this he great, as have been the pains to collect every possible detail, to disinter every existant relic of the Pagan city. Her actual social state, the place she fills in the group of modern metropolises, her importance as one of the great centres of the intellect and civilization Of Europe, are thus comparatively un known. " We therefore desire in these pages to supply to the utmost of our power the deficiencies hitherto to be re gretted ; and atetaining from all political and theologi cal disquisitions, having regard to the honour of the Catholic Church in illustrating her exalting influence over art and literature, but without in the least degree touching upon controversy, or attacking the opinions of others, to present the stranger with a picture of the ac tual state of things amongst us, and to facilitate him in searching out and judging for himself. " In this object, we shall give a summary view of the recent productions in the literature and science of Italy, of Rome in particular, but, as far as limits allow, of the sister countries into which this peninsula is divided, no less ; notices of the most remarkable institutions of charity or public instruction, both in reference to their foundation and present conduct ; intelligence of all the ceremonies of the church, and in particular of the Capelle (the functions at which the supreme pontiff assists with the college of cardinals) celebrated with all the pomp and beauty of the Roman Catholic ritual, noticing the precise time and place of their performance ; as also accounts of the different academies for the advancement of art or learning, institutions of religious orders, notices of the dramatic and operatic performances of the theatre, con certs, exhibitions of painting or sculpture, and of the Most meritorious works of the several studios in Rome, and, in fine, all that shall be deemed of importance for the instruction of our intelligent visitors." Thi3 next article in the papers is on a religious cere mony which would take place on Sunday last, Nov. 8, when the Pope was to proceed from the Vatican to the Lateran church, to take possession of the latter church and palace. If we have space, we shall give, some ac count of this ceremony probably in our next publication. Under the title, "Institutions of the Fine Arts in Rome," this newspaper promises to notice these institutions from time to time. We copy the following notice of " TUE ACADEMY OF ST. LUKE.—Many courts and patrons of genius, in different parts of Europe, have founded and endowed academies and artistic reunions in this city, for the benefit of the youth who gave promise of excellence in the three sister arts, assigning to such a competent pension, to enable them to devote themselves entirely to painting, sculpture, or architecture. The aim of these institutions is the perfection of the arts in the several countries of their founders, through the study of those consummate models that so enrich our city, as well as the rest of Italy. To give an idea of their nature and conduct, more in detail, we shall, from time to time, notice the principal of these establish ments, commencing with those that are of Roman origin. The Academy of St. Luke.—This famous institution being regared as the first of its order, takes the title of "Illustrious Pontifical Roman Academy of the Fine Arts." his called after St. Luke, because, as all ancient Italian bodies of artists were accustomed to place them selves under the patronage of some saint, this took for its protector the evangelist Luke, who has been regarded, from an ancient tradition, as a painter. The origin of a congregation of artists in Rome is most ancient. There exists records to prove that Sixtus IV, in the year 1471, gave statutes to the nniversity of the arts, which had already long been accustomed to meet in a chamber adjoining a small church dedicated to St. Luke, on the Esquiliue Hill. This university was subjected to certain consuls, and placed under the protection of the Roman senate ; but having originally admitted arts of a less noble character than painting and sculp ture, it occurred to a painter of merit, named Muziano, in the reign of Gregory XIII., to found a new academy for the ascription, exclusively of the best artists living. This was instituted by the authority of the Pope, in 1577 ; but the death of Gregory, and that of Muziano, prevented the immediate enjoyment of its privileges, till these were finally secured, on the in stance of Frederic Zuccheri, by Sixtus V. in 1588. Zuccheri, who received the title of prince of the aca demy, gave the code according to which it was to be regulated, and fixed its locality at St. Martina's, on the Forum, where it still stands. The solemn inag uration took place in 1595. The code given by Zuccheri having been gradually departed from and modified, it was re served for the wisdom and high intelligence of Pius VII. to determine the laws by which, in conformity with its original purpose, it is now so admirably directed. The illustrious Canova was at this time president. The - object of this academy is to promote the arts by exciting the emulation of those who cultivate t hem in awarding the honour of admission to iti body ; and providing for the maintenance of the public monuments in Rome, and the states of the church generally. It is placed under the protection of the cardinal camerlengo of the holy church, at present his Eminence Tommaso Riario-Sforza. Its body is composed - of a president (the Chevalier G. Sil vagni), a vice-president, a secretary of counsel, an econo mist, a perpetual secretary of the academy ; and the academicians, styled "of merit and honour," o the first, those of merit, are twelve for each class of painting, sculpture, and architecture ; and beside these thirty-six, as many as twenty are added who may he foreigners, either Catholic or not ; there are also twelve others of merit in the school of landscape and intaglio. The academicians of honour are of an indefinite number ; amongst these many are sovereigns and artists of all countries. The academy possesses revenues bequeathed by different members, and administered by an economist. All its affairs are regulated by a council of twenty-four members, conjointly with the president and secretary. It holds also public schools of the fine arts, supported by an annual stipend from Government of 5,000 scudi, for the instruction of those who cannot otherwise obtain masters. In these schools lectures are given on painting, sculpture, theoretic and practical architecture, geometry, anatomy, history, mythology, and ancient customs. All these schools are open in the new edifice raised by the Government, at Ripetta. The academy also presides over the school called that of the Nudo. The concourses are divided into semestral, annual, and tri ennial : of the last there are two—one, founded by Clement 11., of painting, sculpture, and architecture, in which the subjects must be sacred ; and the other by Carlo Pio Balestra, a painter, who left all his fortune to the academy to this end, and in this latter the subjects must be profane. These two concourses are called the Clementine and the Balestra. Every three years one of these concourses takes place, and the works of students are rewarded according to the judgment of the whole academy. The adjudication is celebrated with much pomp, in the great hall of the senatorial palace, in the Capitol, in presence of the Sacred College of Cardinals and the prelacy ; the Society of Academicians are ac customed to assist, celebrating the praises of the fine arts in compositions of prose and verse. The academy pos sesses a small but most choice gallery of original pic tures, mostly by its own members, every one of whom is obliged, on entering as an associate of merit, to present his own portrait and one of his works, or, at least, a sketch of ()lie. The collection of portraits of academi cians having become too large for the locality, was in the last century, principally sold to the Government of Tuscany, and a large portion of it is now attached to the Imperial Gallery at Florence. From the produce of this sale, the associates restored the church of St. Martina, annexed to the academy, and erected its pre sent facade. - The next article in the paper is a very interesting one on the " Popular Festivities" of " October in Rome." Of this article, which is from the pen of A. Marchetti, we shall give the substance in an early number. To this succeeds an article' entitled " Vespers in the Papal Chapel" for the vigil of All Saints, 31st October. This describes the ceremonial, briefly referring to the un rivalled music of the papal choir (some details of the character and history of which it promises on a future occasion) and notices incidentally that in the Pauline Chapel (which was erected by Pope Paul V. Borghese, in the year 1616), have been ly successive elected and have here received t he first homage—" the Popes Leo XII , Pius VIII., Grego r y XVI., and finally our pre sent' most beloved Sovereign Lord Pius IX., created in the unusually short space of thirty-two hours." The next articles consist of an exceedingly interesting ab street of the proceedings of the Institute of Archmolo gi•al Correspondence, from its bulletin of October. These relate first to excavations now being made at Terracina on the piazza before the cathedral, at the summit of the ancient city, and on the site of the old forum, surrounded by temples ; the modern steps leading to the facade of the cathedral, being built over those which led to the ancient temple of Apollo Anxur. The writer (Professor Luigi Rossini) describes an an cient reservoir, in diverse arcades, still fill of water, and in all probability one of' the ancient Thermw. The pro fessor thus concludes his letter : Opposite to the vast edifice called the Palace of the rope, is being erected a church in the Basilica form, cf Is magnificent aspect, ornamented with a portico or pronaos of lonic columns, the interior divided into five naves, terminating in Latin cross, with its cupola. II 'The whole is of amost beautiful effect, and is the work of the architect Ant t to Sarti. Not far from this, on the shore, are seen f a pe z a mains of the enormous port of Antoninus Pius, of more than three thou eend feet. Beyond tphleacceanweall3„et-reorfe navigation tii for entering the new port, in the ; ,i s a tatue of Sophocles, which now adorns the Lateran of other TlZurn, was found, are magnificent remains of reticulated work, and others of t r h m es'a m with n w t a u l r l e s Biljoining the Braschi Palace. This city, l e ooke a d on f ro m the sea, is very pictu res q ue, and the eye is struck by the contrast between the red tints of those vast mountains and the cold colours of the gothic and modern edifices. The winter here is like spring ; the l i ng cedars, oranges and other southera trees are palms c abundant: but in the summer the air is not healthy. I lime just vritten to a friend the following words:—` In .............por ....... _ excavating the streets that conducts to the Bracchi Pa lace, have been found the remains of a small temple with twelve columns, with a pedestal in the midst for the statue of Apollo, on which the in , cripion would have been placed, Ansure Apoßine Dicatuna.' " The second article under this head relates to the " Ma,mertine stones at Messina," extracted from the " Continuation of Oscan Researches, by T. Mommsen." " The next announcement in the paper is that a book of addresses of all foreign residents during the season ( may be consulted during the season, at Monaldini's library. There are instructions for strangers as to pass ports ; the hours at which the mails arrive and depart, including the Malta mail ; a list of the physicians in Rome, 11 in number ; the bankers, 5 firms ; and the English artists, resident in Rome, of which we give the names only:— Painters. Sculptors. Miss Chauner Mr. Digby Wyatt Mr. R. S. Macpherson Mr. J. Gibson Mr. Dessoulavy Mr. Macdonald Mr. Thomas Crumek Mr. Theed Mr. Tobin Mr. Gctt. Mr. Williams There is also a list of the first-rate hotels, 11 in number and the remainder of the paper is occupied by about 20 advertisements. These are of a very miscellaneous kind. A young German tutor wants a situation; Jos. Lsmbertini respectfully informs the public that he has the best milk, butter, cream, eggs, and ass's milk, for sale on his premises, 67, Piazza di Spagna; a Roman lady gives instruction in Italian conversation; a wine mer chant informs " the English nobility and gentry re sident at Rome, that he has established a sale of the very best wines of the country, the good qualities of which he can guarantee." Next comes a bootmaker's card, followed by announcements of works of art for sale; one is a folio volume, containing prints of the works of art in the gallery of the Borghese Villa, by the first engravers; published at 65 dolls., and offered for 50 dolls. Another is a copy of the engravings of the Vatican Gallery, one of the first impresse:ms, the criginal price of ordinary impressions (in eight vols. boards) being 119 dolls., and this edition is offered for 80 dolls. Then the great p icture b y Fred. B arocci (figures life size) is offered for sale, representing the Virgin seated on clouds, with the infant Saviour in her arms, surrounded by angels ; below are St. Francis, St. Augustin, and St. Elizabeth, with the infant St. John. I Then comes an announcement of the publication of M. Seraphin Dubois's work on chess, with an intimation that the author, who resides in Rome, gives lessons in the game. Advertisements of servants wanting places succeed. An Italian advertisemet of a publication re lating to the Villa Torlonia follows ; then a bookseller and stationer's announcement. To this follow two adver tisements of apartments to let ; and it seem the Italians have a somewhat different notion of what constitutes an apartment than we have. For instance : " To let, at No. —, a large, clean, and comfort able apartment, looking to the east, consisting of two sitting rooms, nine bedrooms, and a kitchen." So that one apartment in Rome includes twelve English apartments or rooms. Then we have an announcement of a steamer's starting, with a primitive cut of a steamer. " The Tiber will leave Civitavecchia. for Naples, on Thursday, :29th October." Next comes an advertisement of an Italian grammar. To this suc ceeds a diary of the occupations, amusements, reli gious services and ceremonies of the week. On Sun day, October 25, it seems there were to be popular festivities in the Villa Borghese at three P.M. ; those fond of art might visit the studio of Overbeck, in the Palazzo Cenci ; and there was to be high mass at St. Peter's at nine, Las. ; vespers, at half-past three, P.M. On Monday the museum of the capitol open from two to five, P.M. ; and the gallery of the Villa Borghese, from eleven !A.M. to half-past four P.M. On Tuesday, vespers at St. Peter's, at four, P.M. On Wednes day, high mass and vespers at St. Peter's ; and the gal lery at the Palazzo Rospigliosi, from 9 a m. to 5 p.m. On Thursday, the gallery and museum at the Vatican, from two to five, p.m. On Friday the festival of the blessed Alphonse Rodriguez, at the church of the Gesu. On Saturday, vespers at St. Peter's, and papal vespers at the Quirinal palace, both at half-past three, p.m. The Rospigliosi gallery from nine a m. to five p.m., and the villa of Prince Torlonia (ticket requisite). The follow ing were to be open daily, except on Saturday :—The Borghese, Doric, Corsini, Sciarra-Colonna, Barberini, Farnese, Farnesine, and Colonna galleries, and the Orti Farnesiani, from eight a.m. to four p.m. To the follow ing places tickets were requisite :—Etruscan Museum and Studio of Mosaics, at the Vatican ; Cupola of St. Peter's, and the Villas Albani and Ludovi,i. Books explaining the religious ceremonies of the Huly Week are advertised ; also guide books to Rome, and to Naples and Sicily ; and the last advertisement is as follows : " ARGENTINE THEATAE —To-morrow, Sunday, will be performed, for the first time, 4 rgia, an original drama, by Giuseppe Checchetelli, with music by Pietro Corbi." From the imprint, it appears that the directing editor of this paper is " C. I. Hemans ;" and the proprietors, " Prof. G. Brocchi, A. Morelli, and L. Piale." It is altogether a very agreeable and interesting specimen of a literary periodical ; destitute, certainly of leading ar ticles, deaths, and marriages, local and provincial news, foreign and domestic intelligence, &c., but still furnish ing much light reading, coupled with interesting local information, ( specially as to the habits, customs, and religious ceremonies of the Eternal City, in this the nineteenth century. FAILURE OF THE POTATO CROP. AN APPEAL FROM AN: IRISH CLERGYMAN TO HIS ESTEEMED AND RESPECTED BRETHREN IN ENGLAND, IN: BEHALF OF DESTITUTE AND STARVING POOR INHABITING A DIS- Tmur mum HAS SUFFERED DEPLORABLY BY THE FAILURE OF THE POTATO CROP. Kilmore Glebe, Drumsna, Ireland, Nov. 9, 1846. Reverend Brethren,—l take the liberty of addressing you from an early knowledge which I obtained of your feeling and sympathy towards Ireland. Certain of those manifestations of your charity com municated through my hands I stilt fondly retain, as illustrating that liberality which it has been my lot to observe on the part of yourselves and the lay members of your community towards this country, it is now my painful undertaking to solicit your humane exertions within the spheres severally allotted to you in mitiga tion of the most heartrending sufferings which our na ture can be subjected to endure. I allude to the appal ling spectacles of starvation, which are daily witnessed here, of fellow-creatures sinking under the most aggra vated pi ivations, combating the agonising pangs of hunger, sharpened in no rare instances by the afflicting clamorous wails of their craving children. Wbiist engaged in addressing you thus far I have more than three times been obliged to drop my pen and to attend to persons supplicating for one morsel of food. Need I apologise to you under such circumstances ? Far be it from me, Reverend Brethren, to desire yodr alms upon the terms of an overcharged representation. Alas ! language ceases to exaggerate where it proves insufficient to express. Doubtless you are aware that the most strenuous exertions are being used under the Irish Board of Works, in conjunction with district relief committees, to avert the prevalence of such general dis tress, through the medium of extensive employment, as also that poor-law unions are in existence ; that many private individuals have come forward, besides public bodies, comprising troops on foreign service ; the Com missioners of Woods and Forests, &c., in augmentation of grants liberally bestowed from the Treasury. Not withstanding such is the extent of the sad visitation, that further scope for benevolent exertion remains, as above described, and especially in regard of a certain portion of sufferers, whose necessity is at length only revealed at their last extremity to their overtasked parish cler gyman ! May I then entertain the hope of your kind inter ference and assistance towards furnishing aid for the re lief of such famishing fellow- creatures around me, with out effecting any withdrawal of your bounty from other localities whose exigencies may, with not less veracity, be further represented to you? And, while inviting your utmost scrutiny, and pro posing to supply through the intervention of a local magistrate and the churchwardens of the parish such returns as your benevolence, moving under the impulse of discretion, may fitly ask in reference to the rigid ap plication of sums afforded in response to this appeal, I beg leave to subscribe myself, Reverend Brethren your respectful applicant in behalf of suffering fellow. members, ROBERT KING, A.M., Rector of Kilmore, diocese of Elphin. WINGLAND, THE NOVA TERRA IN THE COUNTIES OF NORFOLK AND LINCOLN.—In addition to the large tract of land which has already been reclaimed from the sea, a further reclamation of five hundred acres has been made during the last few weeks, and measures are now being taken to bring it at once into cultivation. It is said that such is the productive nature of the soil that the greater portion of the land will not be sold for less than 1001. per acre. The success which has attended these and other operations connected therewith, entitles to the highest praise the zealous and respected Chair man of the Commissioners of the River Nene Outfall, Tycho Wing, Esq., after whose name this district has been called. Much credit is also due to the engineers, Sir John Rennie and Mr. Hamilton Fulton, for the ability and economy with which the works have been carried out. CENTRAL BARRACKS IN BIRMINGHAM.--Our Bir mingham correspondent says:—" Government has just concluded a purchase of about fourteen acres of land, on the east side of the town, for the erection of a great central barracks for England. The site is on the angle of the junction between the London and Birmingham and Birmingham and Derby Railways, and will cost, we hear, 2.5,000/. The new barracks will be the largest yet built in the TJeized Kingdom, and troops stationed in them may be in any part of England, by one or other of the railways, in a few hours after receiving notice from head-quarters. We understand the electric tele graph is to be brought into a centre at the barracks, and communicate with all parts of the country, extending along every lire of rail that may be made." Loss or 3001.—0 n Wednesday the clerk of an extensive linendraper in Oxford-street, whilst proceed ing", from that district to Cornhill, either lost or was robbed of a pocket-book containing, in addition to other valuable papers, Bank of England notes to the extent of upwards of 300/. No clue being obtained likely to lead to the recovery of the property, a large reward was offered for its restoration. The remains of Miss Harriet Churchill, of Maner place, South Chelsea, niece of the poet, and the last member of his family, were on Tuesday deposited in Caldwell,retßu r e n N we r di a t the family vault in St. Margaret's Church, Westminster. without h i w at e: co T is likely, we hear, to be it a i n o d n, b t e h i e ng L n ib a e t r u arlasllnyotreluctant being pro vided t .;:otrtedy,BaciEndLiEdcaTter .

A latter signed " Navalis," in our paper of yesterday, expressed a dissatisfaction, which is probably general amongst the members of the writer's profession, at the reduction of complements which all ships of war are forthwith to suffer. The intimation, however, of this determination on the part of the Admiralty was not the only remarkable piece of information contaied in our naval intelligence of that day from which our correspen dent extracted the subject of his comments. If our readers had looked carefully over the column in question, they might have observed several statements bearing rather a striking relation to each other. It was there renorted that the Vengeance had great difficulty in en tering any seamen; that the Penelope was in similar straits; and that the Victory had been almost drained of her crew to supply sea-going vessels. Yesterday, too, we announced, in our intelligence from Portsmouth, that the Mercury tender had left that port for Plymouth with " one supernumerary." And at the moment . that we were presenting the pub li c with a record of Lieutenant Green's services and rewards, it was openly stated that the Admiralty had been involuntarily driven to the proposed reductions as regarded the officers in consequence of the " difficulty experienced in finding lieutenants to serve." Few persons will have any trouble in putting these facts together, arid extract ing a moral for themselves. That lieutenants should not be easily procured will hardly be a matter of sur prise, considering the price offered by a grateful country tor their lives and labours; nor is the appearance of the bargain much bettered by the fact that, instead of the honourable and useful services on which Lieutenant Green had the gratification of gratuitously expending his strength, an applicant for employment would now be almost certainly dispatched to the Gulf of Guinea, there to consume his health and his ardour in a task promising danger in abundance, but which he can hardly represent to himself as a patriotic service of his country, except by a most liberal interpretation of the phrase. The western coast of Africa seems as serviceable to our navy as the northern coast is to the French army. A superfluity of professional zeal can be admirably expended in the plain of Algiers er the Bight of Benin, and any troublesome tendencies to activity or enterprise may be effectually counteracted by the prospect exhibited of their issue. Connected—and very inconveniently too—with the circumstances to which we have been alluding is the report which was partially current not many days ago c oncerning the immediate equipment of a strong squadron of line-of-battle ships and frigates. That this rumour is incorrect may be very true, but the condition of Europe and our relations with foreign Powers have experienced such alterations since the last session of Parliament as to leave it at least possible that a speedy augmentation of our force afloat may be considered desirable. And at such a crisis what will be our condition ? There are ships enough in Portsmouth harbour to fight another Trafalgar--there are guns and shells enough at Wool wich to sweep the Channel like the ditch of a fortress — there are steamers enough in our royal and mercantile navies to blockade the ports of the Atlantic and the Me diterranean from Dunkirk to Toulon—but when we come to bring these powers into action it is found that we can hardly . man an eighty-gun ship !If the destina tion of the Penelope be considered as rather damaging I her attractions, the same excuse cannot be alleged of the Vengeance ; yet here is an example of the resources sup plied by the present system immediately under our ey es, at a period when rumour proclaims, and reason suggests, that we may speedily have to put these resources to a very trying proof. We do trust that the reduction of ships' complements may not be a necessity imposed on Government by the deficiency of ready volunteers, but we must express our regret that the measure should have been adopted on any principle or from any cause except that of its avowed expediency. It has been a question, though one admitting perhaps of an easy solu tion, whether a very strong crew was not liable to more severe losses in action than a less crowded vessel, and we can understand a reduction confessedly proceeding on this principle; but an involuntary diminution of the complements of our ships must argue a mal- arrangement of our resources, or a miscalculation of our means. No Minister need for a moment hesitate to demand a vote sufficient to man, fully and effectively, by fair means and on honourable terms, as many vessels as the credit and interests of the country may be shown to require. But is it not now abundantly clear that our present system is utterly unequal to any emergency? Admitting that seamen are naturally less numerous in time of peace— that the prospect of active and honourable service would allure hundreds of excellent hands— that war would release the crews of many a merchantman—and that the coast-guard and the yachtsmen would form a very pretty little reserve—yet it must be obvious that this increased supply would bear no kind of proportion to our increased demand. Three ships of the line we might thus, perhaps, turn out splen didly in a week or two, but what is to be done with the next ten or twelve ? We fear that our old system of impressment is counted on with complacency by Govern ment and with resignation by naval men as the expe dient by which carelessness is to be compensated and forethought supplied. Our condition then will be this: —Presuming matters to proceed in the most favourable manner, we shall tyrannically seize upon the services of thousands of our countrymen whose free aid we were neither prudent nor liberal enough to engage ; we shall hand these captive victims over to their respective officers, who will necessarily have to subdue the ignorance, obstinacy, sullenness, or vicdictiveness of such a class by arbitrary and repulsive means ; and at length, when lashes and labours have formed a passable crew, we shall send them to face death for our honour and glory. This is the most favour able issue that can possibly be prayed for from our ad herence to the ancient system. If we can discover and seize our victims, if we can crush them into shape, and if we can escape a mortal struggle till these prelimi naries are completed, we have then got everything we could have hoped. But, suppose the course of our in justice to run a little con trary—suppose the more civi lized state of public opinion to revolt and rebel at acts of daily oppression and brutality which it passed unheeded forty 3 ears ago—suppose the improved condition of the individual seaman to interfere materially with the pro jected discipline suppose common cause to be made with the sufferers i n these nightly razzias—and suppose the energy, streng th, and discipline of the enemy to allow us no such la w sad license as in past generations we enjoyed—what will be our condition then? And which is the more probable of these hypothetical alter natives ? We have never been inconsiderate alarmists on. the state of our navy ; we believe our resources to be unbounded both of men and means, but it is strange that successive Ad m inistrations , while so laudably organ i z ing the latter of these requisites, should so pertinaciously conspire to neglect the former. THE DUCHY OF LANCASTER. On the sth of October we made the following state ment:—" We understand that a department of the Go vernment, hitherto carried on under a chief, is, for the future, to be managed by the same chief, assisted by a board of unpaid commissioners. The names of the latter we are not yet at liberty to disclose, but, if we mis take not, they will throw a very curious light on the present state of parties in this country." There is now no longer any necessity for preserving the secrecy that was at the time imposed on us. The department al luded to is that of the Duchy of Lancaster, and the in tended board of commissioners—however surprising the fact may appear to our readers—will be composed of the Earl of Spencer, the Earl of Lincoln, Sir James Graham, and the Earl of Hardwicke ! We were strictly correct in saying that these com missioners will receive no pecuniary emolument ; but we do hear that certain arrangements have been made in reference to the distribution of patronage, by virtue of which the new Board will not be left altogether without influence. Indeed, it is hinted that this provision is so ample as to have already excited no inconsiderable indig nation in a Noble Lord who imagines that he has been unfairly deprived of the advantages he formerly pos sessed. Of this, however, we know nothing ; it is for the present, quite enough for us to know that two members of Sir Robert Peel's late Cabinet, and a noble man who held an appointment in the royal household under the same Administration, have accepted office at the hands of Lord John Russell. Were we altogether wrong when, five weeks ago, we ventured to say that the circumstance would " throw a very curious light on the present state of parties in this country ?"—Post. [We do not believe there is any truth in the above. A. commission of inquiry may be appointed, but no per manent Board superseding the present.—ED.

DEATH FROM LAUDANUM.—Yesday Mr. Mills held an inquest at the Percy Arms, Great Percy-street, Clerkenwell, on the body of Mr. Samuel Matthieson, aged 26, a wine agent, living at 22, Soley-place. in the above neighbourhood. Mrs. Perrins , deceased's land lady, said he had resided in her house since March last. Latterly he appeared much deprossed in mind, and com plained of having no friends. His complaint, however, was without foundation. On Sunday night he retired to bed at a late hour. On the following morning she kilocked at his door, as usual, and not receiving an answer, she entered his bedroom, and found him insen sible in bed. Mr. Fogarty, a surgeon, was instantly called in, and pronounced the case a hopeless one. Deceased died in the afternoon. Mr. Fogarty had since opened the body, ar d said the cause of death was apoplexy, in duced by laudanum. Several witnesses having proved the disturbed state of deceased's mind, and his habit of taking opium as a remedy, the jury returned the follow ing verdict:—" That the deceased died from the effects of laudanum, drunk whilst labouring under the effects of temporary insanity; but whether he drank it for the purpose of destroying himself, or took an overdose as a remedy, there was not evidence enoug h to p rove." We perceive that Zadkiel's Almanac, which has had an extensive sale for sixteen years past, is reduc€d in price to sixpence. It is likely to sell largely ; but we hope that the prediction of disease in the wheat may not be ac correct as was that this year regarding the potatoes. Colonel Sir Wm. Gossett, of the Royal Engineers, Sergeant-at-Arms in the House of Commons, will for the future rank as Major-General in the Army, which he first entered in 1798. COMMISSION OF LUNACY. 1 EXTRAORDINARY DELUSIONS.-EFFECTS 01? PRCiSPERITY. Yesterday a commission de lunatico inguirendo was opened be:ore Mr. Commissioner Winslow and nineteen special jurors, at the Manor House, Stoke Newington, to inquire into the state of mind of Mr. Thomas Teague, aged 37, described in the commission as of Birmingham, but now an inmate of Mr. Birkett's asylum, Nortaum berlatl House, Stuke Newington. The unfortunate gentleman is a wealthy tradesman at Birmingham, possessed of property to the amount of about 40,0001., having no relations who can at present he found. The commission, which was unopposed, was taken out by a friend, Mr. A. S. Stocker, of Bartholo mew-close. In support of the commission, Mr. H. Weeks, of Clifford's Inn, appeared as solicitor ; and Mr. Rupert Kettle, of the Chancery bar, as counsel. From the Learned Counsel's statement, the evidence of Mr. Birkett, of Northumberland House, Henry Croft, an attendant ; Mr. A. T. Spencer, surgeon ; Mr. H. P. Ree, surgeon ; and other testimony, it appeared that Mr. Teague was a native of 'Wales, that he had been apprenticed to a painter and glazier, at Birmingham, where he became very industrious and frugal—even penurious. He afterwards established himself in busi ness, alai continuing penurious as hell as industrious, lie became successful, and amassed property, the posses sion of which seemed first to have impaired his mind, which seemed to have more decidedly given way on his inheriting freehold property in Wales. It was in the month of July last that his state of mind became appa rent, and his strange and incoherent conduct at the house of Mr. Stocker, gunmaker, of the Strand, ren dered it necessary that he should be placed under re straint, and he was subsequently removed to Northu is berland House, where he laboured under the delusion that he was Christ, and also that the Saviour was in the room with him, several hours at a time; that he was im mensely rich, possessed of millions, offering to advance thousands to many persons; that Northumberland House belonged to him, for which he was (as he said) paying 5001. a year; that he (himself) was God Almighty, and so was Mr. Birkett; that he had killed somebody; that he was Buonaparte, and Buonaparte's son; that their at tendants were all Wellingtons, and that he turned into devils of all shapes, being satarised, as he termed it by a large quantity of mercury, which had been given to him by a country doctor, &c. As a further proof of the state of his mind, he was accustomed to anoint his person with filth, and even to mix it with his food. The unfortunate gentleman, a tall, slim, but wild-look ing man, was introduced and seated by the side of the L, arned Commissioner. He said, in answer to questions, that he knew the nature of the inquiry ; that all his re latives lived at Mr. Birkett's ; that his property was worth 25,0001. a year, &c. Ajuror—llo you still carry on business at Birming ham. Mr. Teague (putting himself into a fighting atti tude)—Yes, I'll paint your portrait whenever you please. Having answered two or three other questions, he said, " It's all right—if you want to know any more, speak to Mr. Birkett, for I want my dinner." Here he rose abruptly, and left the room. The jury immediately expressed themselves satisfied, and returned a verdict, dating the unsoundness of his mind from the 29th July, 1846. TIIE DERBY, FOR TWELVE DOG PUPPIES.

ASIDE.—Mr. Greatorex's diminutive pony, under eleven hands, and Mr. M'Donald's Jim Crow, trotted their match for the above sum yester day, on the Western-road, near Hounslow, from the eleventh to the ninth milestone. By the conditions Mr. Greatorex received two minutes' start, which was, as the event proved, of small service to him, inasmuch as his little quadruped not only started slowly, but when urged, broke so many tirn..s, that a short quarter of a mile only was covered in the given time; the pony on each occa sion being pulled and stopped American fashion. Jim Crow started at a rattling pace, and made his vehicle, to which he was attached, " wheel about" to such tune, that he caught his opponent in the first mile. The tiny one now trotted in an improved style, and Jim Crow came in the winner by rather better than thirty yards, which, however, it struck us, might easily have been in creased, had his owner and driver so wished.

Baker, coroner, and a jury, at the Duke of Wel lington, in John-street, Limehouse, on the body of Julia Fitzgerald, aged 15 years, who died on Friday last, from the effects of injuries she received on the Bth of Septem ber last, during a quarrel with a family named King. It appeared in evidence that the deceased was a waistcoat-maker, and formerly lived with her maternal parent, at No. 8, Samuel- street, Limehouse fields. The family consisted of five individuals, the deceased, her widowed mother, two sisters and a brother, and they occupied one small room. They were all employed in making up slop work, by which they obtained a very miserable subsistence, their small earnings being scarcely sufficient to procure the necessaries of life. On Tuesday, the Bth of September, the goods of the mother were distrained upon for 12s. 6d., arrears of rent due to her landlord, t. man named King, who lived in the same house. A quarrel was the consequence of this proceed big, and Mrs. King took away the slop work on which Mrs. Fitzgerald and her family were engaged. Mrs. King was assisted in this proceeding by her two daugh ters, Mrs. Green and Mrs. Sumner, and they professed to claim the trousers, waistcoats, and other things, by virtue of an order from a magistrate, which had never been made. The three women followed Mrs. Fitzgerald, and Mrs. King knocked her down and took the property from her. The deceased came to the assistance of her mother, and Mrs. Sumner struck the deceased a violent blow on the back with her fists. The girl attempted to enter the house, and Mrs. Sumner again struck her a violent blow on her right side. Green also struck the girl on the right side, and she fell to the ground and fetched her breath heavily, as if she was very seriously hurt. Richard King, a youth, eighteen years of age, the son of the landlord, joined in the outrage on the poor girl, and struck her on the breast close to the coal-hole door. The whole of the goods, which were of trifling value, were taken away by King, and the family were turned into the street. They subsequently obtained another apartment at a small house in George-street, Limehouse-fields. The deceased complained of severe pains in her right side the day she was beaten, and sub sequently she repeatedly said that Richard King had kicked her on the stomach, and that .the wretches — meaning King and his family—had murdered her. Her body was severely bruised from the blows she received, and she continued in great pain until Friday last, when she expired. The CORONER summed up at great length ; and the jury, after deliberating for nearly an hour, returned a verdict of " Manslaughter against Richard King the younger, and Sarah Green and Jane Sumner, his sisters," and Mr. Baker immediately issued his warrant for their apprehension and committal to Newgate. The extensive and eligible estates of the late Wil liam Crowdy, Esq., the eminent solicitor of Highworth, in Wiltshire, have been for some time announced in our columns for sale by auction by Mr. George Robins, at the Goddard Arms, Swindon, on Monday, the 23d inst. The property includes the family residence at High worth, with lands and houses in all direction;, which from their excellence and position, will no doubt excite much competition, especially the lands, approximating upon the Swindon station of the Great Western Railway. There are also farms at South Marston, Lechlade, sad Letcombe, which offer excellent investments, and cannot fail to command the attention of capitalists. NARROW ESCAPE OF AN AGED FEMALE AND THREE CIIILDREN FROM BURNlNG.—Yesterday fore noon a fire broke out at No. 1, Crown -court, Great Trinity-lane, City, occupied by Mr. Thomas Lane, which was nearly attended with disastrous consequences. During the absence of the mother, three small children were left alone, in a room on the ground floor, when they commenced playing with the fire, and set the bed and furniture in flames. The discovery having been very opportunely made by some of the neighbours, the chil dren were rescued; but the flames having obtained such a strong hold, it was found necessary to send for the en gines, and the fire was soon extinguished. The smoke that was caused by the burning of the bed was so dense, and of such a suffocating nature, that an aged female at the top of the house, was prevented from descending the stairs, and she had just got to oi e of the upper windows, and was in the act of throwing herself out, when she was laid hold of by Morris, one of the firemen, who carried her down stairs, and thereby saved her life. Mr. Lane, unfortunately, was uninsured. FALL OF THREE HOUSES AT OLD BROMPTON, AND Loss or LlFE.—Yesterday evening, between the hours of five and six o'clock, the utmost excitement was created in the neighborhood of Pelham-square, Old Brompton, in consequence of the sudden falling of three newly-erected unfinished houses, situated on the south side of a recently formed thoroughfare, known as Alfred place, Pelham-square. It appears that about a quar ter of an hour previous to the occurrence upwards of twenty men were employed on the premis es, but in con sequence of the approaching dark ness not permitting. them to continue their work, they , with the exce p t i o n ot three, left the buildings. James Hashey, William Mooney, and Patrick O'Sullivan were the names of the three individuals left at work. They were engaged at the top of the premises prepa rin g some scaffolding, when they were called upon by a fellow-labourer, named Mullingford, to come down, for the house was falling. The men, however , unfortunately disre garded this warning, and merely replied that they were not so easily mad e fools of. O'Sullivan was then about to descend a ladder, but before he had reached the bottom the house fell in with a loud crash, immediately followed by the fall of the ad j. dning house on the left side , an d also the partial falling of that on the right. The workman who was descend ing the ladder was pitched heavily forward, by which he sustained numerous very _serious wounds, likely to re sult fatally. His companion Monkey by some means escaped almost unhurt, but Hashey was buried in the ruins, and from the nature of the fall was doubt less instantly killed, and it being quite dark b y t hi s time, the street being but indifferently lighted with gas, no efforts could be made to recover the body of the de ceased. Shortly after eleven o'clock last night several persons, fancying they heard groans proceeding from the ruins, ventured upon them, and were about to raise some of the fallen timber, when anoth er p ort i on of the already half-demolished house gave way, an d f e ll w i th a heavy crash, and a er-ybrick falling on th e h ea d o f a la bourer named Hawkins, he was kno c k e d d own and very severe ly wounded. The deceased H as h ey, about two o r three weeks since, while employed on the same works, met with an accident of s uc h a severe nature as to confine him in St. Bartholom ew ' s H osp i tal up to a d a y previous to his melanchOly and violent death. The property thus destroyed belonged to M r . Holmes, an ex tensive house owner in that district. RIGHTS OF THE WIFE.—The New York Consti tutional Convention has adopted the following section, by a vote of 58 to 44:—" All property of the wife owned by her at the time of her marriage, and acquired by her afterwards by gift, devise, or descent, or other ise than from her hubsand, shall be her separate pro perty. Laws shall btu passed providing for the register or the wife's separate property, and more clearly de fining her rights thereto, as well as to property held by her with her husband." RAILWAY BRIDGE OVER THE TWEED.—We under stand that the contract for building the bridge over the Tweed, in connexion with the Newcastle and Berwick Railway, has just been let to Messrs. M'Kay and Black stock for 180,0001. Messrs. M`Kay and Blackstock are the contractors for a portion of the Newcastle line in the neighbourhood of Belford, and we understand that their works there have given great satisfaction. The bridge will be a light and elegant structure, its height 120 feet, the arches are 27 in number, and we need scarcely say that it will be one of the noblest architectural objects in the kingdom. The works, we believe, will be com menced without delay.—Edinburgh Evening Post. TUESDAY, NOV. 10.

The Bestwall and Swineham estates, announced for sale in our columns, situate close to the borough town of Wareham, and upon which, it is said, they have at each election a material and important influence, were for many years the pet or model farms of the late Sir Claude Scott, Bart., by whom t►iey were wonderfully improved, and rendered the best farms in the county ; at his death they were sold to Mr. Harry Hammond, who built a pleasant, comfortable residence upon the property, commanding the most extensive and beautiful view of the Dorsetshire hills, including the majestic ruins of Corfe Castle. The death of the proprietor renders a sale of this desirable property peremptorily necessary, and Mr. Robins speaks of it in the highest terms, strongly recommending it to his friends, the ca pitalists, possessing, as it does, all the elements for safe and permanent investment—indeed, one more desirable is seldom to be met with in the market. THE VALUE OP BRAIN LABOUR IN THE ARTS.— In a recent lecture, delivered at the Bradford Mechanics' Institute, " On the fine arts, and their application to in dustrial purposes," by Mr. G. Wallis, late principal of the Manchester School of Design, the lecturer produced a French miniature jug, beautiful iu design, and stated that the clay of which the jug was composed would cost about half a farthing, whereas by the brain labour of the designer, its value was increased to balf..a.crown. The material form of another jug had, in like manner, bad its original value of a farthing increased to seven francs (ss. 10.1.) in consequence of the c9lours which bad been bestowed upon it in ornamenting it. lie stated that there was an indisposition, from the non-appreciation of the works of arts, to pay the high price for their embel lishments which our continental neighbours, whose taste was educated, paid for them; and he said that they might depend upon it, that Englishmen would produce works equally as beautiful in the art of design as the French, when they had equal encouragements, and when the people could appreciate the truly beautiful.—The Builder. A painful difference of feeling has for a considerable period existed between the rector and parishioners of Vange, in this county, in consequence of the former having introduced several alterations in the performance of Divine worship in that church, more particularly in the dressing up of the altar, on which were placed a cross, candles and candlesticks, and vases, containing bouquets of flowers, which gave great offence to the con gregation, many of whom, in consequence, absented themselves from attendance on public worship. These novelties called forth the strong disapprobation of the Venerable Archdeacon Jones, upon his inspection of this church, during his last parochial visitation, and he ex pressed a hope that the rector would immediately see the propriety of their discontinuance. This direction not being complied with, and the same unhappy feeling still prevailing, the churchwarden himself removed the obnoxious ornaments from the altar ; but this step, unfortunately, created a wider breach between the rector and his flock. The circumstances were now commented upon by the London press with much freedom. Ulti mately the matter was brought under the noti c e of our new and respected diocesan, the Bishop of Rochester, and on Wednesday ennight his Lordship, acc om p an i e d by a reverend gentleman of the neighbourhood, went to Vange, and made an investigation of the circumstances. His Lordship, we are informed, directed the immediate re moval of the cross, candlesticks and candles, and vases and flowers, and gave such directions as to the future performance of Divine service as will, we trust, put an end to that unhappy difference which has so long existed upon this subject, and enable all to join fervently and heartily in the public worship of God.—Esser EXPLOSIVE SAWDUST. — The following is addressed to the Leeds Mercury, by George Turner, Richmond street, Leeds:—" Having engaged myself to make some of the now tar-famed gun cotton. I came at results by my experiments which convince me that all fibrous or finely serrated vegetable materials can be made to pro duce au explosive compound, similar in many respects to gunpowder, being of not so easy manufacture as the gun cotton. I here enclose to you a specimen of the pro posed gun sawdust, which can either be tested by putting it into the fire or sprinkling over your gas or candle. The preparation is thus:—Take of nitric acid of specific gravity 1.5 two measures ; commercial oil of vitriol two measures also ; pour the two acids into a bacon, then gradually sprinkle into the compound acid the sawdust in a dry condition, and carp must be taken that the saw dust must not be poured into the acid too rapidly, else the result will be a decomposition of the nitric acid into nitrous acid and a carbonaceous matter. Continue to sprinkle the sawdust until nearly the whole of the acid contained in the bason is absorbed. Cover your bason over with a plate to keep in the fumes from the acid. Allow the sawdust to remain in the acid a space of eight or ten minutes. Pour then into the bason as much water as it will hold, and the sawdust, by the action of gravity, by compound which aeid, has become o f a hi g h er s p ec ifi c property the prepared sawdust sinks to the bottom of the vessel. Pour the water off; fill it again, and continue to wash until you, on tasting the water in the bason, no longer perceive acidity. Dry it then in a current of warm air; be careful not to allow your tem perature to be too hi 2h; you may place it upon the over, if not too hot. When it is perfectly dry it is ready either for the gun or pistol, &e. I think it is equal to Mr. Taylor's gun cotton in every respect." NEW USE FOR WATER-WORKS.—A rather novel source of mechanical power, and curious application of that power, have lately been adopted at Newcastle, on the quay of which a hydraulic crane, worked by the pressure of water in the common street water-pipes, has been erected, under the partial protection of a patent, by Mr. W. Armstrong. The pillar and jib alone appear above ground, and the application of the power to the instrument, in all its movements, is regulated with ra pidity, as well as delicacy, by means of indicators, tra versing circularly on engraved plates or indexes. Though not the first time that water-works have been applied iu the accumulation of mechanical power, this rather ele gant application of it to the ordinary business of a town opens up a wide vista, through which may be traced the indefinite outline of multiform uses for such a convenient power, in the sphere of domestic as well as of business life.—The Builder. PUBLIC BATHS AND WASII-HOUSES.—In Manches ter the erection of the additional private baths at this establishment has very favourably progressed, and there appears no doubt but that they will soon be fully com pleted. The shower baths are now nearly in general use, and have given the highest satisfaction, as far as they have at present been used. The extraordinary in crease in the w:tshing department, to which we alluded last week, shows more satisfactory returns than could have been supposed. The institution opened for this department on the 10th of September, and during that month there were 9,827 articles washed by 199 parties. In the following month of October, the numbers who availed themselves of the privilege:. offered by the esta blishment wore 5138, during which period 18,728 articles ~f various descriptions were washed, showing a very un expected increase ; and, even yesterday, up to the hour of closing, there were sin less than Klu articles of wear ing apparel and bedding washed at this institution. Up to last night the articles washed were 5,740 during this month, and the number of those who occupied tubs, no fewer than 194.—Manchester Guardian of yesterday.
